The original SPL is 1.09 and radio is 1.14. After payment at imei-check.uk, i got the *.unl file (i know it's not support for this phone, but just want to make a test! ). After unlock, of course it not completed, stop when check radio ver, now SPL is 1.04!!! After that i unlock it using pacth radio and Hermes_Sim_unlock_v2.2a, it's successful, but when i insert new sim, i can not input unlock key, it always say i was tried 8 (or more) times, then must wait for timeout, but after along time waiting status still not change! Use mtty for enter command AT but it stop at command AT interface ready!
Any idea?

It's not... on SoftBank x01ht devices post December 2nd 2006, the radio 1.14 is read only. You can downgrade the bootloader (as you already did with imei-check unlocker), you can now change the ROM using the 1.04 bootloader bug, but you can't overwrite the softbank 1.14 radio.

That means we can flash other OS ROM and use other sim card ,isn't it?
When will X01HT of post-December be unlocked?
My X01HT has slept for one whole month,i am always waiting for new unlocker release,so i want to know when it can release,as i am a fan of WM5.
WM5 fan on this forum also has some desrie.

You can flas other provider ROM (softbank radio 1.14 will be kept).
You can't use other simcard, only softbank.
You mean we can flash other lanauge rom on it!!! No matter the phone is unlocked or not?? Somatom, my phone also sleep in the drawer over a month, too
The original SPL is 1.09 and radio is 1.14.After downgrade and unlock with v2a,the SPL is sitll 1.09,but i put another sim card into phone,no sim lock display,but the symbol of GSM is always searching for signal.why?is it unlock or something else?
@Wai Wai: yes, by using bootloader 1.04 CID-checking bug (run ruu twice), check the wiki for more info.
@somatom: softbank devices post 2006-12-02 can't be unlocked.
Yeah~~~~~~~I try now......Please wish me good luck~~~~
My phone is 1.09. Hope it can work
Ohh yeah baby,
It's been done. They havn't said it has been done, but I assume that it has since I have checked their sice a couple times a week for the past couple of months just waiting for something to be said. They have removed the message about Softbank phones being unable to unlock. So I "ASSSUME" that you can now fully crack your phone with Softbank v1.09. Also for the simle fact that it is version 4 http://www.imei-check.co.uk/M3100v4Unlock.zip of their software instead of version 3. So, now we can crack, our X01HTs, we can downgrade to 1.04, flash with a English rom, then downgrade again to 1.01 and then flash with our custom splash screens.
Imei-check has cracked post December Softbank phones.

Interesting! Anyone tried it? Are you x01ht post december 2nd, able to flash another radio after unlocking?
Success!!
I tried as soon as I saw this post, I had previously bought the IMEI thingy (technically speaking) and realized that my phone was a post Dec. (I originally thought I got it in November, but I realized that I was just an idiot)
anyways a couple minutes later I'm using my Docomo Card on my unlocked Softbank phone.
I'm not gonna lie, it was well worth the $40.
Now, I am not sure if my mail is working. So you guys have any idea about the Docomo mail if that works or not on the Hermes?

I tried too.
This version can unlock sim, but but can not unlock ExtROM.
Radio can not upgrade, can not flash another radio.

They say as follows;
(1)
How do upgrade other radios:
Unlock using v4b unlocker. Upgrade again to the X01HT 1.09 rom. Now flash the phone with a COMPLETE rom (for example cingular 1.24 or imate ). Now the radio will be changed to something else. YOU MUST flash a full rom on a 1.09 so your radio it be flashing too.
(2)
ok again. PRIOR to flashing NEW RADIO ROM you have to upgrade to bootloader SPL1.09. You DO NOT NEED to run the unlocker again. Your phone has to show SPL1.09 when you run the ROM update with the radio of your choice.
Extended ROMs are EMBEDDED in the firmware update. Any access from WindowsCE to this ROM has nothing to do with SIM or CIDunlock.
So solution:
1) Update to bootloader SPL 1.09
2) Then run the update with radio firmware you like
NOTE: DO NOT RUN THE UNLOCKER AGAIN! Then it will work.

i don't fully understand you. are you saying imei-check says;
1) you can actually change radio rom 1.14 on x01ht?
2) you need to have bootloader 1.09 (by burning a full rom that includes bootloader 1.09 first) to burn a rom from different companies? after unlocking??
3) you should not use the unlocker more than once?
we'd appreciate if you could give us a clearer idea about the process. thanks.
keiuchid,
Same here. I don't understand what the process is. If "they" means imei-check and if you have their written response on the process, please copy that and paste it in your reply here. It doesn't matter if it's long.

To upgrade radio on a new "1.14.00.10 radio":
First unlock the device with v4b unlocker.
After unlocked ok, upgrade AGAIN to the SB firmware so the 1.09 bootloader back in place.
Now flash the device with a FULL original HTC Hermes firmware (for example cingular full firmware) and now the radio will be flashed to a different one.
IF bootloader is NOT showing SPL1.09 the radio it will NOT be flashed when you do the flash upgrade!!!

Thank you. But it is not unable to flash another radio rom.
I downgladed SPL from 1.09 to 1.04 for myself first,changed to a DOCOMO ROM.
And succeeded unlock to use M3100v4Unlock.exe.
However, the radio was unable to flash another radio rom.
Then,I read this advice,flashed a New Softbank Rom.
It was no lock.
However,can not run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe.
Unable to flash radio rom.
I think because SPL is 1.09.
Then,M3100v4Unlock.exe was made to run again.
When it used this tool, it became automaticaly SPL to downglade to SPL1.04.
I can run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe.
But, it is not unable to flash ...

Hi all.
My Softbank has b/l 1.04 and the 1.14.00.10 radio on it. To use this method,which rom do I use for the 1.09 b/l? I looked at wiki,and the only one was a Japanese version for softbank. It does not match my Softbank, so I am not real sure which way to go. Is there a Dopod rom with the 1.09 b/l?
BTW.....My Sb is an HERM200 with the Dopod splash screen and was shipped with the Dopod 1.23.707.4 WWE Rom, IPL 1.01,B/L 1.04, and the dreaded 1.14.00.10 radio on it.
Thanks................Later
This is a patched radio ROM that can be used to remove the Operator SIM lock and CID lock from HTC Hermes based telephones. This new version also includes HardSPL patched bootloader to show always as SuperCID and allow to flash unsigned code.
It can be used in all HTC Hermes devices, no matter which bootloader version the device is running.
NOTE: For x01ht post April devices, see this thread.

Thanks to:
buzz_lightyear, itsme, vijay555, arc, Asukal, machinagod, esteve - for the wise advice and support
Des and Olipro - for SSPL and HardSPL, everybody praise them!
everyone else in xda-developers.com
History:
v3a [03-04-2007] - New RUU will make sure HardSPL-1.40 is installed before flashing the radio
Now the unlocking process is faster & safer
Fixed bug where IPL was downgraded to 1.00
v3 [11-02-2007] - Herm_Unlock_v3.exe now allows you to select SIM / CID unlock separately
Thanks to SSPL it can be used in all bootloader versions
Patched radio is now provided in NBH format
It keeps the current bootloader on phone (does not downgrade SPL).
v2a [14-11-2006] - bugfix release, thanks to all who reported the problems!
(hopefully) fixed bug where unlock code has to be entered manually
(hopefully) fixed bug where SuperCID was not kept after rom upgrades in some cases
v2 [12-11-2006] - updated to patched radio 1.16
unlocking software provided (HERM_Unlock_v2.exe): thanks buzz for the source of UNI_Unlock_v1 ;-)
SuperCID is now kept after rom upgrades
v1 [05-11-2006] - patched radio 1.13
unlock manually
Donations:
I spent some time and money developing this free unlocker, there's no need to pay me for that, but donations are always appreciated.

I closed the old version thread, it is still available here.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Will this void my warranty?
A: If you select the option to "CID unlock" most probably yes. Don't select it if you just want to remove the SIM-Lock, it will be CID unlocked anyway by HardSPL but will keep your original CID if you flash any other SPL on it.
Q: After unlocking my phone my Radio and SPL versions are downgraded. Can I upgrade them?
A: Yes, you can upgrade to a newer radio and newer SPL/HardSPL version. The phone will not be locked again.
Q: Will this work on Post Dec-2nd SoftBank X01HT phones?
A: Hopefully yes, but your OS ROM includes software SIMLock protection (the annoying USIM screen), you can flash a non-softbank OS rom after unlocking it or read the thread for other options if you want to keep the SoftBank ROM.
Q: Will this work on Post April (white) SoftBank X01HT phones?
Yes if you have not let the SoftBank ExtROM install, otherwise your radio bootloader has been upgraded to 0182 and it is not possible to flash a radio or remove the SIMLock.
Q: Will this work if my bootloader version is SPL-1.09?
A: Yes.
Q: Will this downgrade my bootloader to 1.04?
A: No, it will upgrade it to Hard-SPL 1.40 which is better. You can use Custom RUU to flash any ROM on it.
Q: Will this work if my radio bootloader is HTC_BOOT 0108?
A: Yes.
Q: Will it downgrade HTC_BOOT 0108 to 0107?
A: No, if you have 0108 it will keep 0108.
Q: Do I need to run the new version if I already used the older version previously?
A: No, your phone is already unlocked, no need to run unlocker again.
Q: After finishing the process it still asks for unlock code, what should I do?
A: Make sure you have radio version 1.16 and run Herm_Unlock_v3.exe on your phone and select unlock option. If entering any unlock code fails, please repeat the unlocking process again (you did something wrong the first time).
I would like to thank you for all the owner of Hermes which is not unlocked.Good work,pof!
Hi Pof,
download link for the local ftp pointed to older 2a version. Typo, I guess.
pof You gave necessary unlock v3?
see "HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3.zip" ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v2a.zip
It just had been corrected.I guess pof had not finished uploading just now.
Please see ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3.zip
Yes guys sorry for the wrong download link, it has now been fixed
Pof that was amazing.. i'm really impressed Thank You!
thanks pof for your great worked..superb..i have waiting for a long time ago for this new solution..
Hi
Thanks to POF. what a conincident. i have test the first unlocker on the same day as pof posted and today again just had one piece and tested it. every thing went ok.
Br
Incredible! Pof, would you mind sharing on how you succeeded? I was very interested in the approach directly jumping into bootloader and so on. So explaining the other developers what and how you did is appreciated
Ok, explaining should happen here. But I'm still very thirsty for information. :-D

You must be in normal bootloader 1.04 to do this. Not in 1.09 from the SSPL-tool.

Have you tried recovery way clearly stated in documentation
In case if something goes wrong during flashing you should flash your device with ROM accepted by standard bootloader (and have another try if you wish).

Thank you.I did not recognize that.That means,since I have super CID,I can flash any shipped complete ROM with a 1.04 SPL and then flash to 1.01MFG in order to flash seperate OS roms,am I right?

yes you can go this way if you want to, or you can load 1.01MFG with SSPL without flashing it, or you can create nbh rom signed with anything and flash it with SSPL. Read doc it rulez.
Hello,
I have a SPV M3100 and I upgraded to WM6. I flashed the spl and radio and followed the upgrade guide...
I want to put back my old spl and radio so I can send it back to Orange.
Before I had:
SPL: 1.04
Radio: 1.06.00.00
OS: Orange UK ROM
Now I have:
SPL: 1.40olipro
Radio: 1.38
OS: Orange UK ROM
The Orange UK ROM I used was the Reconstructed one here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=278060&page=3
Stupidly, to put back everything I flashed spl 1.10.oli then flashed the full ROM but kept getting noGSM and then getting stuck in boot.
To get it working I had to upgrade to spl 1.40olipro again and flash radio 1.38...
I then extracted the radio from the ROM (as its the one I need) and tried flashing it with that but still had same noGSM error.
How can I get 1.06.00.00??? on the WIKI 1.06 is unavailable (which is why I extracted it from the ROM)
In the 'Standard Method' here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
it says... "Your device MUST be running bootloader version 1.04 to upgrade the radio with these:"
Can anyone advice me on this??? I do need SPL1.04 anyway as thats what orange shipped with my phone...
I dont know where to get SPL1.04 and is it correct that radio 1.06 can only be flashed on SPL1.04 and thats why im getting noGSM when I do it???
Thanks Everyone, these forums are great, after thinking I bricked my phone yesturday (flashing the full UK Orange ROM) and getting noGSM it is now fixed
P.S.
If I trust the stuff in the Full Orange ROM I used.... I extracted the SPL too which says its 1.04.
I want to try flashing SPL 1.04 first then the radio, but been advised not to? Everyone says flash SPL last! But I dont see how if it says: "Your device MUST be running bootloader version 1.04 to upgrade the radio with these:"
The problem you are having is that radio 1.38.x.x will have flashed the updated Radio bootloader to HTC_BOOT 108.
Reflashing 1.06.0.0 will not downgrade the bootloader to the required 107, and afaik there currently is no way to downgrade the radio BL.
You should still be able to use the Orange ROM with the updated radio, and if you have to do a orange warranty call, it's unlikely they will complain.
@dlfranks: Read here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286755&?p=1217676&postcount=1007
@oliber: he's wanting to go to a radio with htc_boot 0106, probably that's not possible when you've already flashed 0108. I never tried this, but it seems that two users are having the same issue, so probably once you have 0108 you can only downgrade to radios with 0107 (but keeping 0108 on your phone, that is).
thanks
thanks guys, that makes sense. I think ill try the other radio. basicly i have only had it a few days and want to try a difo phone, there happy to swap it in the first 7 days... i just dont want them complaining i messed around with it...
want to make it look as much untampered with as poss!!
at least i got the orange rom on there, it looks good.
if i get the radio to the lowest one i can, how do i go about getting spl1.04 back on my phone. i have read the hard spl threads but cant work it out. i have 1.40olipro. do i downgrade to 1.10.oli then to 1.04? or to 1.06 then 1.04. what order?
I extracted the spl1.04 rom the orange rom i used...
thanks for your help again

Dear All,
Could someone please tell me how to get the SPL back to original. Im planning to sell the phone and it basically needs to be completely as it were.
Thanks a million!

Thanks a million!
Kind Regards,
Henry

Thanks to Walshieau, Todd_jg and Olipro for helping me out with this.
This guide will take you through downgrading the Bootloader (SPL) on your Hermes device
This guide assumes you already have flashed ROMs and Other components and you are familiar with the process.
NOTE: By downgrading your SPL version your device is more vulnerable to being permenantly bricked if a flash goes wrong, by following this guide through YOU accept responsibility for any problems faced due to this operation. As with other downgrade guides this is NOT intended as a guide for claiming the warranty of the device having flashed components which are not authorised by the manufacturer or carrier.
The downgrade will take the following steps, since HardSPL does not allow itself to be downgraded directly, nor does SSPL allow versions lower than 1.09 to be flashed.
The first step is to dowgrade to SPLversion 1.10.oli. Firstly download this archive and extract the files to a temporary folder, connect your device up via the USB port and allow it to connect to activesync. Run "RUUWrapper.exe" which will fire up the RUU program:
Select 'Force SSPL' and continue the flashing process as usual.
Allow the flashing process to take place and your device will reboot.
Now check the SPL has been changed by entering bootloader mode, press and hold the side ok and power buttons then insert the stylus into the hole in the bottom of the device. Your SPL version should now read "1.10.oli".
The next step is to download the SPL you wish to finally downgrade to:
SPL 1.04 (includes IPL 1.00)
SPL 1.06 (includes IPL 1.01)
Again extract the contents to a temporary folder and connect your device to activesync via USB. Run "RUUWrapper" in this new folder.
Select the RED OPTION, and TICK THE BOX.
Then flash as normal.
This will flash the final SPL version onto your device.
Verify your SPL version once this has completed by allowing the device to boot into windows Mobile and entering the bootloader as before.

Shouldn't need to access OS. You should be able to do it by putting it in BL mode... THEN plug it into the usb. Then start the updater.
Its 2.30.Olipro I need to downgrade from, and you cant overwrite olipro SPL's without using SSPL by des from inside the OS, I'm trying to find another way

2.3 is similar to 2.1.
As MrVanx's guide points out, the key is to get from 2.1 down to Oli 1.1. That will work. His guide works - guarantee it.

Thanks for the help, but MrVanx's guide uses SSPL by des (launched from inside the OS where I can't get to) to overwrite the 2.10.Olipro to get back to 1.10.Olipro, so that method wont work for me either

Oh interesting. A nuance I hadn't picked up on. So, when using the Force using SSPL" option in the flashing utility, you must be able to access the Phone OS? That surprises me, I thought that the RUU utility would put it on the phone even in BL mode and execute it? Hmm... strange. I guess if it is an exe, it needs the OS to run, though. Sort of makes sense. Sorry about the misdirection.

Hi,
I'm trying to downgrade to the original SPL (I'm trying to get hold of 2.03 but can't seem to find it), so am using 1.06. I've been able to downgrade to Oli1.10 from Oli2.10, but it won't go back to 1.06 from there, after the RUU says successfully completed the SPL is still the same.
Any ideas?
Cheers
downgrade phone for rogers warranty
Hi Guys,
I need to downgrade my phone as well for warranty purposes. Unfortunately Mrvanx's guide is offline at present. Can any one of you give little further detail about what I need to get back to orginal rom/radio/spl and bootloader. Or in shor to be able to send it back for warranty. I do have a new Rogers phone if that can be of any help.
It is from Rogers and currently my boot loader screen says following:
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.10.Olipro
Under Device Information:
ROM version: FARIA.R-32
ROM date: 11/06/07
Radio version 1.54.07.00
Protocol Version 32.86u.7020.23H
ExtROM version: BIGSTORAGE
My replacement Rogers Phone has following:
HERM200
IPL-1.01
HERM200
SPL-1.11
Under Device Information:
ROM version: 1.34.631.14
ROM date: 04/17/07
Radio version 1.42.00.00
Protocol Version 32.75.7020.18H
Can anyone please tell me if it is even possible to do this downgrade.
Thanks
B.
why dont you just brick the phone if you are worried about them complaining over the boot loader version. If you cant access the phone i doubt they will be able (or even be bothered) to
Could you please let me know what you did? Did you downgrade To the original Rogers Radio and SPL ? Do you by any chance have all the original Rogers files (WM5, SPL, Radio,...)?
I am with Rogers too and just unlocked SIM (not CID) and installed WM6 (official HTC)
I am wondering how I could lock SIM again if I need to return the phone for Rogers warranty? or unlocking SIM does NOT void the Rogers warranty?
Thanks
Downgrade to SPL 1.11
Hi is anyone able to figure out how to downgrade from SPL 2.10 Olipro to SPL 1.11? I have tried Mr Vanx guide but at the end of the process, I get Error 260. Not sure if I am doing anything wrong.
Do I have to downgrade to SPL1.10 Olipro, before I downgrade to SPL 1.11?
Thanks
I am having some issues downgrading back to an original SPL. I've searched throughout the site and have found a lot of conflicting advice, although this thread seems to be the most relevant.
I started out the process with SPL: 2.10.Olipro
I downgraded to 1.10.oli.
This process was successful in that the bootloader screen now says that the SPL version is 1.10.oli.
Now, when I try to flash the OEM version of SPL, the phone asks the following question:
You would like to run jumpspl.exe
If I say yes, the screen goes gray and says load... but I end up with a 260 error.
I have tried turning off the usb connection in the active sync and starting from the bootloader as mentioned here, but that just ends up giving me a 264 error.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Cheers,
~Hat

Post #5 from here fixed the issue.

Okay, Im back to 1.10oli, but how do I know if I need to go back to SPL 1.04 (includes IPL 1.00) or SPL 1.06 (includes IPL 1.01)?
OK people, please tell me you have looked at the updated guide right??
http://www.mrvanx.org/thg/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=19&Itemid=27
Yes, but the choices are,
1.04
1.06
1.09
1.11
2.03
and I don't know how to tell which one is stock for my phone. I assume I need 1.04 since my bootloader says IPL-1.00 but I'm not sure because I know that used to say IPL-1.04, and since it appears that that can change for some reason, I want to make sure I get this right so I can get this waranteed. Im going to sell it on ebay and get the new HTC Fuze as soon as AT&T releases it.
