Hey everyone,
i am so upset and lost; words cannot describe it.
So i installed WM6 black shadow and everything was working except for SMS and MMS. So i am like ok i can live with that for a day till custel' rom will come out. SO i decided to upgrade the radio to 1.43 and boom here is where the problem started, No GSM on boot up. Phone doesn't boot up. I tried install 1.40 over again, still nothing. No i tried upgrade the the rom itself, i tired custel 2.5 and nothing and i tried the new Cingular rom, still same problem. the roms flash all the way. I read the wiki, and saw the mtty.exe thing but that doesn't work for me either. I am really lost and don't know what to do.
Specs
cingular 8525
hardspl v7 cid and sim unlocked.
PLEASE HELP
4.13?? 4.10??
Where did you download these radios from??
or do you mean 1.41 or 1.43??
Yeah thats what i meant, 1.40 and 1.43 sorry. You can see how upset i am.
Thanks Again
Well, if your phone turnes on .. it's not a brick.. lol .. it IS fixable... When you turn the phone on does it go RIGHT to the 3 colored screen?
@dan5.5
You need to read the unbricking thread about this, all the info you need is there.

If you are superCID I don't see how flashing a radio could have messed up your phone.. that's weird.

I read everything there and nothing seems to be working for me. I woudnt post for nothing. i dont want to be annoying.
OK im going to repost what ive said on 4wm:
We need to check if your Radio BL is functional, firstly leave HardSPL v7 on there and connect to the bootloader via mtty (il assume you know how to do this).
Issue the following commands and tell us the results please:
1) checkimage (this shows the CRC checksums of each component...id expect the radio image to show a timeout....
2) info 2 (This will verify that your CID is intact)
3) info 8 (does a bad block check)
Once youve done this, flash SPL 1.10.oli to the device and once again connect up to mtty.
4) 'rtask a' this will enter the radio bootloader you will see "Enter Radio Bootloader" or something to that effect
from now on when you type the text does NOT appear on the mtty screen.
5) 'rversion' this should return your radio bootloader version...now unfortunatly if you see nothing...you radio BL is dead and sorry your device is royally bricked. If you get something returned back onto the screen (most probably containing the text '0108') then your radio BL is fine.

do as instructed in that text, post your results here.
I cant falsh spl 1.10 oli. it gives me the 260 error.
the 260 error is not connected via USB right? .. weird... have you tried taking your battery out for a couple minutes, then booting into BL mode? sounds weird but this worked for me when I didnt flash hardSPL firsl..
hey mrvanx's
I can't downgrade the hardspl to 1.10, anyhelp.
I cant active sync, the phone doesnt boot up.
Is there anyway to aviod having to respond on the phone.
hey,
i can get the phone to boot up into windows and then it freezes within a couple min. what should i do. Still no gsm message and no phone. thanks
Dan
OK, so let's try and get you to a working state - I've bricked mine a couple of times and it can be quite heart-stopping, eh?
The first thing I would do is re-download radio 1.43, just incase your current one is damaged somehow.
Secondly, download Black Shadow - I know it's not the ROM you ultimately want but the aim here is to get you working again and we can move forward from there.
First, boot up into BootLoader mode (hold down the OK button on the left side of the phone and the power button and then press the reset button on the bottom, just in case you didn't know
You should come to the three colour screen and it should be reading IPL-1.04 and SPL-2.10.Olipro. If it isn't, stop here and post what it does say.
If it everything is OK at this point, when you plug your phone into your computer, it should change to USB at the bottom. Just wait for the Found New Hardware prompts to clear on your PC and then flash the black rom - choose the hardspl option in the flash program.
Once that has finished and it is at the "tap screen to set up windows..." bit, put it back into bootloader mode as above and flash the radio.
This should hopefully give you a running phone again as I know this combination works OK as I am currently using it.
Fingers crossed, don't panic, and let us know what the results are
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Nothing is working, can some please help me. Is there anyt way i can restore the spl to the original one so i can send the phone back, i just got it like 2 weeks ago. thanks
Also i have a bad block thats what i think makes the phone freeze after i boot it up.
How can i get around this, thats seems to be the biggest problem.
Hey everyone, let me give you more info.
I can fully flash any rom and and radio,
phone will boot up like 1 out of 10 times and then freezes and thats it.
i have a bad block number 6. I have hard spl v7 installed before the phone got screwed up. I cant downgrader the spl to a lower one to check if radio stack is screwed up. Can someone please help me, if you need to ask me more info feel free.

I managed to upgrade my phone to aku 3.3 using pof's method(bootloader 1.01 MFG) . Then, out of no where, I tried to use MTTY to upgrade my radio rom
It started as usual with the status bar moving. Suddenly some error messages came up.
Now, the phone is dead completely. I can''t even enter bootloader mode.
Is there a possible way that I can still save it??
Help!!!!
Have I bricked my device? Help plz

Now, the phone is dead completely. I can''t even enter bootloader mode. Only when I take out the battery and plug in the charger cable the red light comes on. I looked the upgrade problem page, my symptom doesn't match any.
Is there a possible way that I can still save it??
Help!!!!
I had something similiar happen a little while back. What I did was pull the battery out and leave it out for a while, maybe a few minutes. I then put the battery back in and held the two side buttons and hit the reset button to put me into bootloader mode. I then cabled it to my computer and flashed a new OS via mutty. That got my phone back and operational.
@float. Nuh, it didn't work on my brick. Prob i will have to take it back to Tmobile if they kind enough to repair the no warranty phone i bought on ebay.
Sorry to have opened a new thread, I was so desperate.
Plz delelte it.
how exactly did you try to update the radio using mtty?
I download the 1.27 shipped radio rom. P.S. It seemed to be a german version, not sure whether that caused the disaster.
Using NBHextract to get the single GSM.NB file, then in MTTY, typed
USB> task 32
USB> lnb GSM.NB
Before flashing, just had it upgraded to the HTC AKU3.3 OS rom only. The old version radio rom version before flashing was 1.18.
Maybe the order i flash is wrong. I flashed OS first then the radio rom.
just guessing
ok, you loaded the radio rom code where os.nb should go. That may have caused mega bad blocks in flash. Can you even get bootloader mode if you reset using Wiki directions to obtain Tri-color bootloader?
Yes. I have tried many ways wiki suggests. Such as removing the battery leaving it more than half an hour and plugging it to the usb cable without battery. still can't get to the tri-color bootloader mode. Basically, I just can't turn on the phone.
If you connect it to the computer, can it communicate w/the PC? If you hear the windows tones try opening up mtty and see if you can communicate.
i'm stuck in the same place
for me it happened during extrom flash
Try removing the battery for a bit (a few minutes, maybe half an hour). Then, put the battery back in but don't plug the usb cable in. After that, hold the two side buttons as if you're trying to get it to go into the bootloader. Hit the reset button a few times with your stylus and see if that gets you to the bootloader. That's what worked for me.
tried that
tried removing battery and connecting usb
nothing helps

Please dont tell me to read the other threads on this issue. Your better off skipping this topic and moving on to the next. I preffer this to go untouched with no replies than to have smart ass comments. Ive been reading pages and pages on how to do this for weeks with no luck. Theres about a few dozen options and with all the suggestions I have no idea where to start, nor what programs to download first, understand what these terms mean, etc. Maybe this isnt my cup of tea and I shouldnt even be attempting this but thats neither here nor there cause the fact of the matter is I screwed things up. Now Im looking for some help from the community.
Its getting real expensive and I need a serious expert who has patience and is very thurough. This is my second unit and I still have the 1st one that is still bricked as well. This is the situation for both. When I go to setting>system>device info, there was no radio version, no protocol version, no IMEI, and the call duration info was zero. I was able to use both units for thier PDA functions but not the phone prtion. I was attempting to SIM unlock and SuperCid em both. Now they are both stuck in bootloader. Im not sure what went wrong but I have done 3 other 8525's with success also updated roms and reverted back and no problems. I just cant seem to get the bricking undone. Now Ive done tutorials on housing swaps, step by step and provided pics as well. You know what, people still ask how to do it. Its a fact guys. some people just need a little more direction than others. What Im trying to say is Im looking for help not criticism, Im a grown man and the last thing I need is for some young punk to flame me,or telling me to read cause Its already been done. I can easily buy another phone but Im willing to learn how to get out of this bricking crap. So its back to reading. TIA
Heres How You Do It
I know how you feel because last night i bricked my 8525 cingular, Okay, If You Can Start Up Your DEvice All You Have to do is reset it to te factory condition and that would help you, unfortunatley all of your data would be lost, but its better than a bricked expensive phone. Oh, but your stuck in bootlaoder, well i have good news for you your not bricked your just stuck, go to the att website and a download and update and the update should recogize your phone even though the computer dosent, after that you have a brand new updated 8525 and that should get you out of bootloader.

Really??? This seems too easy. I'll try anything at this point. So you say its not bricked,just stuck in bootloader? So there is hope? Thats def bice to hear. I'll give it a shot. Thanks
LOL. Tried and and same problem. It sounded too good to be true. Thanks for the tip though
I'm not trying to be smart (believe me, I'm not equipped to do that!) just trying to help determine the exact state so that someone may be better able to help.
You say the phone's are stuck in bootloader, but that you're able to look at the device info on them, and use them for their PDA side. I always thought stuck in bootloader meant that when you switched it on, it came up with the multi-coloured bars but got no further (as if you'd reset it while holding the power and side OK button). Do you mean that the phone's work as normal but have no PHONE side of things, or can you get no further than the bootloader screen when trying to start them up?
Like I said, not trying to split hais just trying to get the exact symptoms for someone cleverer than me to help.
OK by the sounds of it you are definatly NOT stuck in bootloader.
firstly can you please answer the following questions from the wiki:
1. Which is your SPL version?
Put your hermes in bootloader mode (side ok + power button + softreset), the SPL version appears in yellow letters on the upper side
2. Which is your radio bootloader (HTC_BOOT) version?
If your radio version is <=1.27 your HTC_BOOT is 0106 or 0107, the only exception is Softbank X01HT 1.14 radio which has HTC_BOOT 0108
If your radio version is >= 1.30 your HTC_BOOT is 0108
If you don't know which is HTC_BOOT, but you have bootloader 1.01 MFG, 1.10.Oli or 1.04 you can access to the radio bootloader using the command 'rtask a', then type 'rversion' and hit enter (you won't see anything in the screen when you type rversion, because the radio bootloader has no echo, this is normal).
3. Is your device able to boot Windows Mobile OS?
This one is easy: If can you see your today screen and use your phone as a PDA means you can boot OS. If you only see the splash screen, bootloader screen (tri-color) or windows mobile splash screen you can't boot OS.
4. Do you see "No GSM" message in red letters on the first splash screen?
Reset your hermes, you will see some numbers and letters appear in red and disappear after a few seconds... your radio version is there, but if your radio is corrupted for some reason, you will see 'No GSM'.
5. Does your OS rom have KITL enabled?
Hold COMM MANAGER and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus, if you see the message "Select KITL Transport" your OS rom has KITL enabled, otherwise not.

Please post the answers back here when you are done.
Stu has an excellent point. Need to know the exact state of the 8525. Exactly what you have done to it....
Example: I used Pof's free HTC SIM unlock and SuperCid program. It appeared to complete successfully. However, now when I start the 8525 up it automatically goes into the tri-color boot loader screen. I had not applied anything else to the 8525 prior to trying to unlock it.
Also, there is a sticky for dead hermes. I bricked mine as well, and was able to get passed it. I posted in the sticky. If you post in that sticky, then someone else may benefit from what you find out. Keeps everything in one place

Yeah, but, if you used V3a to unlock it, you actually got Oli's BL as part of the deal--hence why you can unbrick it easily!
WELP no smartass comments HUH? Well if you ****ed up 2 phones like this you really must be doing something wrong there buddy. your phone is not stuck in bootloader if you can see the device info thats for damn sure. first thing load SPLV7 on your phone then flash a a complete ROM including radio and OS and then you should be all fixed and if that dont work there is a WHOLE thread just for BRICKED phones so go read like you said you whrere doing.... To me its sounds like you dont have a clue what your doing since you have done this to 2 phones and if you did have a clue your first thing would have been to load SPLv7
so go enjoy your not really bricked bricks
and if i remember right your one of the fools that was making fun af elf because he charge people like you to fix phones over at hofo... so take your problem over there or call elf for some one on one and eat some ****....

They should be ashamed of themselves for they way you have turned out.
I was able to do all the PDA functions prior to gettting my phones stuck in bootloader. That is were I am now. I got myself stuck in bootloader while trying to load HardSPLv7. I had not done any type of mods or upgrades prior to doing this.
Elf, I want you and that moron to post topics if me bashing you, I cant imagine me doing that. I am 30+ years of age, 3 children and a beautiful wife. I dont have a lot of time, nor do I have the time or care to flame other on these forums. I know that I look to people here and other forums more than they will need me. So please back up that what you are saying and I make sure that I make it an effort to put in my sig that I am an idiot and that you are god. If this it was gets you thru the day, so be it.

OK, right you need to flash ANY ROm that contains an OS only, DO NOT try flashing a ROM which has a radio or SPL etc...
Follow my WM5 Downgrade Guide, this will take you through the steps necessary, select the relevant ROMs by HTC and Cingular (found in the wiki).
If that works as desired then update to HArdSPL v7 for both devices then flash a new radio.

No sir, Ive got two computers working on this right now. One to look at replies and the other to do the update. I had to get a bite to eat so Im back at it. Im trying to connect to sync but not working. Im reading up again on this Sd card deal and mtty so Im trying.
Yes ofcourse i forgot, once you have rebuilt the nbh to make an OS only update (OS,Ext ROM and the 2 splashes) you cant update as normal because there is no activesync connection...the sd card technique is what you need to do. After the device can get into OS and connect over activesync you can do the rest (HardSPL and Radio).
ok mrvanx, after using device monitor I fianlly got a connection and tried downloading a rom. Process goes thru and at 12% it stops and gives me the 262 error message. I do wat it suggest when getting the message with sof reset and try again, still same error.
flash from a damn SDcard and be done with this **** man... your wasting time half assing around... flash an OS.nb from your card and then do all that was told to you from above... this is the only way you will get your hermes working again

Hi,
Could you pls advise what is your device made, model, SPL version ... etc.
Also did you try to do Hard reset?
I'm using now black MAJIK (and few days ago black shadow) with radio 1.43 with no problem.
its the SPV m3100 When I decided to go Black shadow I read up on mr vanx and made sure I had all the things I needed. If I remember right, when I came to upgrade to Majik the auto detect found the second option down
SPL-1.04/1.10 - 1.09 Bootloader. I've realized since I had a spaz and ran the RUU from the archive this time. From what I've since read thats not too cleaver.

I'm not sure, but hard reset doesnt mean you take the batery out.

I was in your position (hanged on booting) few days ago, and when i did hard reset, it changes every thing to basic normal condition.
i meant when i did a hard reset when it asked me to press space to reboot I took the battery out. I tried again this time pressing space to reboot but I still get stuck on the loading screen. I can't connect by USB to the PC I'm guessing the drivers on the phone haven't loaded and I'm stuck as to what to do.
Does anyone have any ideas?

yeah I've done that it's "SPL-1.09"
I had this exact problem yesterday, with the same bootloader too. The phone would not pass the splash and IT refused to upgrade. I ended up downgrading to a shipped wm5 rom (in my case the cingular 1.30.502.1_1.11.00.00) which to my surprise actually worked as no rom radio or spl upgrade moved at al on my phone. Then upgraded back to black majik. I hope this helps.
Thanks. I downloaded the trial of wm5 from the windows website and it asked me to install .NET framework version 1 so I got that but it turns out to be 2.0 not 1.1 It would say it had repaired but it would say this with or without the phone connected.

ok tried this too no luck.
Trying to use the one from orange (linked to through wikki) I get an 294 invalid vendor error however active sync cannot connect yet of course so is this to be expected?
I have however gotten a connection with mtty which is a step forward dunno what to do with it yet though except trying the password 0000000000000000 command but it not disabling the password. This then lead me to read for a further hour how to change it and I've got to be honest; it beat me. I have No idea what the hell its talking about. My head hurt with so much reading.
I get a no gsm pop up v briefly on loader. I so want my phone back
I have since tried CID unlocker just so i get something installed onto this brick but I either get a connection error or it telling me it can't install for some other reason. I can not set the password in mtty to 0000000000000000 so how do I do that and is this the first step to getting things sorted? "just running a rom install" is not happening I can get a USB connection in mtty and that is it. Is the fact i'm running SPL 1.09 a problem? I'm getting precious little help guys If i'm posting in the wrong place or something please let me know. I need thing thing back now. Hours are drifting by with me trying to get some head knowledge but I still need some guidance please

I can not set the password in mtty to 0000000000000000 so how do I do that and is this the first step to getting things sorted? "just running a rom install" is not happening I can get a USB connection in mtty and that is it. Is the fact i'm running SPL 1.09 a problem? I'm getting precious little help guys If i'm posting in the wrong place or something please let me know. I need thing thing back now. Hours are drifting by with me trying to get some head knowledge but I still need some guidance please

can u flashing HARD V7?,i think better u have IPL 1.04 SPL 2.10olipro first ,then try to flashing radio?
and did u try SD card.
In bootloader can anyone here connect with active sync? I can't so updating rom and radio flashes in the usual way isn't possible. Trying the hard spl again it tells me to make sure active sync is connected and as it isn't it throws back a 262 update error. 0% on the hermes and that's currently as far as I can get. I have no means with which to access the memory card.
The reason you get an invalid vendor ID is because your CID doesnt match....download a ROM which is for your device (an orange one?)...then try.
You need to read the wiki alot more before trying anything else since you are not aware of the vendor ID error...nor the fact you MUST use HardSPL.
I linked to the orange ROM from wikki and tried installing it. it was while installing THIS ROM SPV_M3100_ROMUpdate_0407.exe I got invalid vendor error.
Installing a recent DL on HARD spl v7 I get a 240 open file error that's one I haven't had before.
With all other attempts they all say they want an active sync connection.
I can not connect to the phone through active sync
so all attempts by me to flash anything to the phone using an RUU fails.
I was instaling NBD_v8.3_8MB trough shelltool on my MDA Vario then something happened and my PC restarted I whink it is because of the electicity .... so now when I restardet my phone it is stuck on the T-mobile screen Where it is writen.....
IPL 2.21.001
SPL 2.21.Olip
GSM 02.19.11
OS 6.6.6.666
Thanks in advance
First of all, its not bricked. Bricked = doesn't turn on, nothing, blank screen.
I've looked to your info, you already have HardSPL, so you can flash directly using any RUU, don't use shelltools!
Enter bootloader (hold camera+reset), open up the RUU of the ROM you want (make sure it doesn't have any IPL/SPL) and flash away
well I looked all day what to do and I can not find solution
I just can not understand how to flash the phone
I found one solution via some kind of Wizard_love, but again I do not know what to do
Please help i am haveing the same thing just did it today i have the Cingular 8125....i have held camera+reset and got into these Red,Green,Blue,white screen and it says IPL 2.25 and SPL 2.25 now when i run the ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID it does not work i have my usb pluged in and my phone says USB please help

1. Please use a PC with Windows XP
2. Download your original carrier ROM (i.e. Cinglular stock ROM) and flash back to original WM5
3. Install HardSPL or use SSPL
4. Flash to WM6

You guys wanna see bricked? I have a BRICKED! phone... My MDA was the unfortunate victim of a car accident. When my car went carreening off the road, my MDA went flying through the air and ended up on the floor of the car but not before hitting virtually every surface on the inside of the car.
Now my charge port is completely snapped off and my battery shorted out when I was trying to hold the charge port in place to charge it and fried the main board. DEAD. NO MORE.
THAT MY FRIENDS, IS BRICKED....
No worries though, I already ordered a TyTN II
Cool can you help?
Oh and i had the same problem with my mda and i got it replaced from tmobile. - the easiest way to reapair an MDA is getting it replaced ^^

first of all,as dferreira has assured u that ur device is not bricked,secondly ,you already have HardSPL,that means your device is unlocked,just follow his instructions,download any wm6 Rom and flash,it'll good to go,but if u still want to be sure,download WST Tool from the below given thread read carefully and apply the tool to verify the status of ur device,

u can flash NBD rom which u have or any other wm6 rom,goodluck
NVM i am on the Other Page! Thanks
Ok, i have read everywhere and can't help myself, so if someone would be kind enough to help it would be much appreciated
Ok, Used SoftSPL and tried flashing the ROM. It manages to get to 99% and then just goes RED. I have tried 3 different ROMS and same story it goes RED at 99%.
When i remove the battery, it goes to the RUU Red, Green and Blue screen. SPL version is 2.16.0001. Not Oli's new one.
What do i do from now?

Soft SPL only allows you ONE update, so phone is CID unlocked only when Soft SPL is loaded.
It's normal for the RUU to stick on 99 % for a couple of minutes, The whole update will take aprox 10 minutes.
You can try the hard SPL from there you are semi-permanently CID unlocked.
Good luck,

Hey, my phone is an At&t 8525 and after finally fixing the white screen problem and flashing hard-spl v7 and a couple of roms I bricked the phone when flashing the last touch flo rom. During the flash the ruu wrapper stopped and indicated there was an error. I did the recovery and it supposedly completed succesfully if I can remember right. When it reboot it would not get past boot loader. And thats where I am now, the phone will not get past boot loader.
I've tried every method on these forum I could found
SD card flashing dosent work, I get the 002..... error in red.
Flashing the factory an at&t rom dosent work either, gets the same error
\
As for as I know the MTTY method dosent work, I don't know how to type in commands into bootloader and when I type in 14 0 in MTTY nothing happens
KITL is not enabled
IPL-1.04
SPL-2.03
The phone does not boot into bootloader when I hit the power button, I have to hold the comm button, power button, and soft reset in order to bring up bootloader.
When bootloader is up and the phone is connected to the computer via usb bootloader displays usb on the screen and windows detects the device as an HTC device.
Again i've spent about a week and a half trying to fix this phone and I don't know what to do anymore, i've tried more methods than listed above I can't remember though. If anyone can give me a hint on what to do I would highly appreciate it. Thanks
P.S Can someone please tell me how you type commands in bootloader or MTTY
You DON'T have Hard SPL V7 installed..... Otherwise your SPL would be 2.10.
Connect the Hermes to the pc, make sure active sync has benn disabled - got to settings, untick connect by USB. It should register on the pc. Go to bootloader then run the .nbh file for your stock rom... Make sure its the carrier rom that it was shipped with. It doesn't have to be WM05 but it DOES have to be your ORIGINAL carrier rom. Let it run through, you may gewt lucky.....
If it works, INSTALL HARD SPL V7....... Makes it so much easier to fix then...
Good luck...
Thanks for the reply, much appreciated
I tried downloading and sd card flashing a stock rom from a list of factory roms of all Hermes that I found here on xda. It gave me the same error though. I'm not exactly sure which exact rom to download from that list either. Any more help would be appreciated, thx
Wow I feel retarded, I used the wrong factory rom. After I used the right one it worked perfectly, I now have my 8525 back! Thx so much man, ur the friggin man!
Congrats bro you got it atlast. good luck & take care your baby in future. try to help others with your experience.
Glad you fixed it mate, but if I were you I'd also make sure you have Hard SPL V7 installed. It is the safety net to help when things go wrong... Never gonna be 100% safe but better odds with Hard SPL V7...
SPL - 2.10 oli
Cheers...
Ok... Rejoining the 8525 Clan
Is this Forum still alive???
Been a while guys, figured I would break out the 8525... charge it up and see what kind of things are new in this community. Unfortunately, it looks as if the radio is bricked on it. Seems like it will install ROM's that the radio is not included on. NO GSM is on the boot display, which is strange as I was using this phone until I got the Tilt about 1 1/2-2 yrs ago. I was a hardcore flasher back then... every other day it seemed, so I know it has (or had) everything it needed like the Oli 2.10 SPL... but it seems like I cannot recover this radio issue.
I am messing with the different original OEM and Carrier ROMs hoping I can get passed the 11-12% mark, and I will let you know if something changes. Any idea if un-installing SPL 2.10 Oli, and then trying to walk back through the old SPL steps could help? I am just trying to figure out another way to get around this radio issue... or basically I have a PDA, no phone Damn phone hasn't been touched in like 2 years, you think it would be just as fine as it was when I took the SIM out.
Cheers
