hi all
i CID-unlocked my tytn with the CID & SIM unlocker from here, which upgraded my radio to 1.16. thing is i get a much better reception now, and i saw that the rom has radio 1.14 with it. so- how is it? any good? and second, can i flash the new rom but keep my current radio? and if so, how?
sorry if it's all newbie questions...i've had quite few ppcs, but this is my first gsm device...
1.18.416 has bootloader 1.06 which doesn't has 'rtask' command needed to upgrade the radio, so you must stay in radio 1.14 if you flash this rom.
Dear Community, Dear Experts, Dear Gurus ,
I am hoping for your help. Unfortuntately the Speaker in my HTC TyTn died
and I need to send back the TYTN to the service center in order to get most likely the speaker replaced ( dead ).
Here my isue:
I want to flash the original stock rom, which is:
RUU_Hermes_1.18.257.2_1.18.257.106_1.03.03.10_Qtek_GER_Ship.exe
I have running now and downgraded from WM6 to WM5:
HTC_BOOT HERM200 IPL-1.04 SPL-2.10.Olipro ->>> not OK :-(
ROM HTC German QTEK_102 1.18.257.2 05/30/06 ->>> OK
EXTROM 1.18.257.106 ->>> OK
RadioRom 1.41.00.10 ->>> not OK :-(
Protocol 32.34.7010.01H ->>> OK
OS Build 14955.2.3.0 ->>> OK
AKU 2.3 ->>> OK
The issue is now, how can I restore the original bootloader ? I can only
flash the rom with the RUUWrapper, the result of flashing the original stock
rom is then, that I am still stuck with the modified bootloader and a corrupted
radio rom. Radio Rom was "fixed" by me by flashing the latest version.
If I would try to use the original flasher I would always get an Update Error [260].
So what can I do to resotre the HTC TyTn to its original status, so that the warranty is not voided ... original stock bootloader, radio rom image and so on.
Thanks a lot and hoping for your support, since I am realy lost here.
Sbrani
grab sspl (soft spl) and use that to flash a stock bootloader only.
as far as i know you cannot downgrade the radio due to it being bootloader 0108 variant, but not having a hermes i might be wrong
You can restore the original SPL bootloader by using SSPL but you will not be able to downgrade the Radio as the original has HTC_BOOT 0106.
You have already checked these guys that they haven't released an update?
First of all, thanks a lot for replying, but still the question is, how I can get rid of the HERM200 IPL-1.04 SPL-2.10.Olipro Bootloader. I would need to downgrade once again to the original HTC bootlader 106. As long as I have the other one, I will always end up, with a non working radio rom, since this stone old radio rom is not compatible with the new "IPL-1.04 SPL-2.10" bootlader. Any further Ideas ? Anyway the sspl (soft spl) did the trick and was able to flash orignal rom, but unfortunately with the same result, still not the original bootloader and the radio rom is now again corrupted :-(.
The bootloader hindering you from downgrading to the original radio is not the IPL/SPL combo but instead the built-in bootloader of the radio itself. Read more in the Wiki.
To put back your original SPL loader, use NBHextract to extract the SPL image from the ROM update file you used to downgrade the other bits in your phone, then use NBHgen to create an update file containing only the SPL and then use SSPL for the update.
Hey great support here ! Finally I also managed to restore the original bootloader, which is HERM200 IPL-1.00 HERM200 SPL-1.04. Now I only have to get the original radio rom running. Thanks a lot, seems that I can think now of actually reaching the final goal. I learned a lot. Great community !!!
You're missing the point about the radio. Let me repeat:
You can't install the original radio ROM. You will brick the phone!
abubasim is right, you have htc_boot 0108, so you can only flash radios with htc_boot 0107 or 0108, but not 0106. Your original radio has 0106, so if you flash it you'll get a NoGSM error and a bricked phone.

Well Pof, abubasim, Couldn’t sbrani downgrade the radio with custom RUU to his own original Rom Radio first?? (almost the official known Radio is 1.38) then following your description. At that time he gone have WM5 Rom and same Radio as original, I just wondering if u can du like this
Don't worry guys I bricked several times now the radio rom . It's just that it is then extra work. I will keep you updated, as soon I have news, for now I can't see anymore those "upgrading" tools. I will try it again tomorrow.
you where able to unbrick because you had HardSPL, but now you have SPL-1.04 which will not allow you to flash unsigned code.
By the way, did anybody have experience with HTC or better to say HTC Serivce Providers. As far as I know I have to send it to Teleservice in Germany. Are they realy checking the installed rom ? Thanks for the info.
Ok, I made it finally, I will post exactly how I did it, maybe it helps someone who will be in the same situation.
Thanks once again, great SUPPORT !!
Sure you'd HELP me!
Hi there,
Hi Sbrani, I'm in the exactly same situation: HTC TYTN (Orange France) without speaker... and needing to go to french HTC support.
I upgraded both ROM and Radio to the latest versions following step by step the tutorial found here and on mr (???) on its website (very well done by the way).
Sbrani, Please could you help me to restore as you did, my factory defaults?
Regards
Fly
Can you give more facts ? Pls look into my first thread and put down the infos. Thx
Guideline: How to downgrade to an original rom
Ok here we go this is how I solved this issue.
First you need to understand the difference between a normal SPL
and the modified SPls, which you can get here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
A standard SPL will not accept any unsigned code !
In case you bricked it already look here :
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
1. you need to figure out, which radio rom matches your rom you want to flash, otherwise you end up with a bricked radio rom or even totally bricked,
if you have a standard SPL.
2.Please check it here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
for the roms
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
for the radio roms
3.Looking at my ROM, which I needed I flashed 1.10 - Olipro SPL - based on 1.04,
I flashed it by using SSPL.
4.I flashed then the needed the radio rom
which was Radio upgrade only using CustomRUU 4.3 V 1.38.30.10
5.I used then Custom RUU Updater flashing the needed rom,
but without the included radio rom.
Costum RUU Updater you can find here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_CustomRUU
extracting and modifying is explained here:
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=22&Itemid=27
actually it is an how to downgrade from WM6 to WM6.
Please have a close look on how to extract the rom and how to create a
costum rom, which will fit your needs. The self made rom,
should then include the original IPL and SPL loader.
I finally used again SSPL to flash the self cooked rom.
Sorry if the guide is not very precise or not correct at all !!
Everybody is welcome to correct me and to finetune this guide.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST, please read the HERMES WIKI, it was a great help for me !!
Thank you!
You deserve a Very Very Warm thank you!
I'll try all you advised me this week-end.
Regards,
FlY
it's very good already. i think you should get it incorporated into MrVanx's guide as a downgrade for servicing section
Thanks for your guide sbrani, I have not had to downgrade yet, but it something that is in the back of my mind as I know it will be very difficult if I ever need to.
I would also second the comment that I would be very grateful to MrVanx if he wrote a general guide on how to return to factory condition , as it is much more involved than upgrading. It's one thing to flash a phone, a totally different thing to customise a ROM update in order to only flash a specified portion.
@sbrani:
What version is your radio ROM at now? 1.03.03.10 or 1.38.30.10?
Im not concerned bout getting the original radio but just want to go back to the original rom. I have installed LVSW's version of WM6 and is running into some things that I rather not mess with as far as bugs and all. Now can I just DL the ROm and be straight TIA
I assume you havent read my WM5 Downgrade guide then?

Thanks for the tip. I'll get to reading some more. Appreciate it.
I did one recently using the most recent AT&T WM5 version. Using SSPL to downgrade, I was also able to change IPL/SPL back to stock versions.
Total Downgrade from WM6 to WM5
Sleuth255,
Just wanted to ensure I understood your process in downgrading from a WM6 rom to a WM5 rom.
Scenario: I am currently using Custel's 2.5(WM6) with radio 1.40, IPL 1.04 SSPL 2.10 Olipro.........
I wish to down grade to the "Stock" Cingular 1.34, with the stock radio 1.3xx
If my thinking is correct, I should be able to run SSPL 1.10 (Olipro) and then flash the WWE ship.exe for the 1.34 which will put the stock IPL/SSPL on the device.........
Am I out in left field with a football uniform on, or is the goal line reachable?????
Thanks,
vpu2....OUT!!!!
follow mrvanx's guide. It shows how to do everything. I went from the 1.41 radio, the 2.1oli spl, and dutty's rom back to a 100% stock phone that was capable of being flashed by the file that you can get from HTC's website... i did all of this using Mrvanx's guide (and the search function)... this link may help a little as well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=301219&highlight=downgrade+the+SPL
any simple steps to downgrade 2.47 radio of nvid wm5 to 2.19 or lower for people having trouble with 2.69 in canada
Sure, check out the FTP. The Radio Roms are there, I am not too sure but you might have to hard reset after the change ...
no need to hard reset after..
and also no need to hard or soft reset before the operation.
connect your ppc to pc with usb cable, active sync connection status does not matter, just run the radio rom upgrade utility.
you can download it from:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/Prophet-roms/Radio_ROMs/
Prophet_G3_G4_RadioRom_v2.47.21.exe

this is what i am asking too ,clarification is needed to downgrade from 2.47 Nvid to 2.19 for canadian radio to function properly ,if clarification will be confirmed then only we would proceed else no use in spoiling the handset.
Whatever radio rom you use, you can upgrade or downgrade by using the appropriate *.exe file. Downgrade or upgrade is the same thing. The radio rom version is not dependent to the WM6 ROM. You can change among them easily. I mean, if a radio rom is not suitable because of your mobile operator or another thing, you can change to another one and another one..

Yu can safely flash a separate radioROM without reflashing your OS. It is a different cup of tea. So don't downgrade before. Succes!
