Hello.
I have a problem I hope someone here can help me to solve..
I have an Orange SPV M3100 that hangs on the Windows Mobile screen when I try to start it.
I'm able to go into bootloader mode, and i have tried using mtty142.exe with the set 14 0 command. It still won't boot. I've also tried to hard reset it.. still won't boot..
What I did was trying to unluck the SIM-lock with the Universal unlocker (HTC_Uni_Unlock_v1) from buzz. At the time I thought universal meant that it worked on all HTC devices (stupid, I know)... And I also thought it was harmless to just try and see if it worked. But I got an error around 92-93% and after that my device won't start. So my radio ROM might be screwed.
I'd like to flash my ROM with the i-mate one (JASJAM_WWE_1.20.305.3_1.20.305.104_1.07.03.10_ship.exe) and then add the ext-rom. But how do I do that when I can just access the bootloader screen? And do you think it will boot again if I'm able to flash it?
Here's some more info about my device:
HERM100
IPL-1.01
SPL-1.04
Thank you very much in advance. Help will be highly appreciated.
No your rom *is* screwed. You can get into bootloader, you can even get to 11% of a dopod etc rom upgrade if you try, but you will not flash a new radio.
You CAN boot the device.
Do a hard reset, but do not press spacebar to reboot after. Instead, do a soft reset. The unit should boot but as you've screwed the radio you will not get a gsm signal and the phone will say unknown sim status.
I know this as I bought one cheap after the owner had done exactly the same as you.
IMEI-check's unlock solution is the only one that works IIRC, and in some cases this re-writes the security area of the phone and repairs similar issues, but in this case I could not get the prog to read.
You need to return the device to HTC - you'll need to pay approx £35 for reflashing back to the orange rom. This is what I had to do.
Currently you cannot book the m3100 in through the web as it's too new, instead email / call them.

edit - or if you're an orange customer ring 150 and act dumb saying it ' won't work'.... :wink:

What happens if you just leave the phone in bootloader mode and then try to flash any ROM (imate, dopod, htc...)? run 2 times the RomUpgradeUt.exe if you get an error on the 1st try.
If you get an error while running the rom upgrade utility you can monitor the USB port while upgrading (you will see the real error from the bootloader then), there's some more info on this wiki page:

No, if you want to send it back under warranty do not try to run a rom update as there are no orange rom packages. As described in my post above, it will get to 11% and stop. The device will be in the same state as before, with the same ext rom, but the splash screen and bootloader will have changed.
i.e: it will be bloomin obvious you tried flashing it and failed. Not what you want if you try for a warranty repair....
There is no error from the bootloader - as there is no radio rom present and no security area the upgrade process just hangs.

That's true, do not try to flash any other roms if you want to use the warranty or send the device back...
Thank you very very much for your help guys.
As I'm the administrator of these devices in the company I work for I just grabbed a new SPV and will send this thing back to Orange. It sounded like I'm getting a new one..
Well, I think I've learnt my lession.
Oh, and I have another question. Is there a reg editor I can install on this one so I can remove the app lock? I know I can install java apps, but it's a bit grumpy about apps that needs installation (the developer must be certificated).
Cheers guys.
Hi,
Try to flash a new rom using the SD card method described here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=62596
The rom must match your CID. Let us know if it works

Sorry to take the thread a bit OT, but just wanted to confirm this again.
So, if I flashed my M3100 with a different ROM, and then had to return the phone to Orange for repair for a different reason, I can send it back to HTC just to have the ROM reflashed, and then send the phone to Orange to get the repairs done?
I've been hesitating on whether to flash the phone with a non-Orange ROM because I didn't want to give up the ability to obtain warranty repair (as there is no ROM upgrade yet). If it's just a matter of £35 and then everything else as normal, maybe it's not so bad...
Thanks!

I think that the method is right but I need to use a different software. what do you think about?

My SPV M3100 won't start
SD card method is no good as there is no upgrade from Orange until January.
Tried to do a radio upgrade explained here:

But it didn't work just came up with connection error, tried to monitor USB but nothing showed up to find out why, althouth mtty commands always do show up in USB Monitor.
Still have a brick and looking for a solution, hopefully, someday, please someone help me I am loosing my mind.

Hi,
I did the popular mistake, tried to unlock with Universal Unlocker , thinking that this is the staff to unlock all the HTC phones.
Ok. What I have now:
NO GSM - we know that
Tried to install radio roms from here, nothing. I got the information about "Checking the information...." and it is hanging like this.
I made reser and HARD RESET aswell.
I tried to install a lot. Nothing helped.
I had radio ver. 1.05.... I remember that. I have my phone from T-Mobile from UK. I had everything nice, now I have four stripes - RED GREEN BLUE and WHITE and ther is written:
HERM300
IPL-1.01
HERM300
SPL-1.04
Can anybody help me ? I tried to download mtty.exe and put all the commands (not PASTE and it still not working.
Now is 6am in Lisbon. I was sitting all that night and I am finishing writting this post.
Help if you can, regards.
Ben
Have a look on this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280733
It did not help. Where I can get this Qtek rom ? Is that OK for my device ? I have VARIO II from T-Mobile.
I woul like to try instal this - DUMPED English ROM from TMobile Vario II from here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_DumpedRoms
but i dont now how. There are 3 .raw files, how to put them to my phone ?
That solution didnt help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280733
What else I can do ? I was trying with QTEK rom and a got white screen on the phone and 0% on the computer. It was hanging. I tried 5 times. Then I tried to install the Radio Rom from here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
I choosed all of them. Nothing. All of them are hanging on:
Chencking the information on your device... Please wait..
Then there is a screen to update. After long time. So when I press the button is still the same info. Checking the information on your device... Please wait..
And its hanging. When I reset to bootloader again the soft telling me:
This ROM Upgrade Utility does not design for your device.
Please get probper ROM Upgrade Utility and try again!
Where can I get the radio version 1.05 for T-Mobile Vario II ???????????
Is there possibility to download from somewhere ?
Or maybe I should try other solution ?
Read "problem 5" here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems
Yes, I was tying point 5 few times. The problem is, I can connect through mtty.exe without any problems, but after soft reset, I am pressing POWER and OK button and going to bootloader mode again, and when I am trying to flash the extracted radio ROM (i tried all of them = 4) and there is a problem. nothing is working. I am waiting and waiting, and there is only info: Checking your device information or something like that. What can I do ? Sorry for my English guys.
Instead of flashing an extracted radio image try to flash a normal shipped rom (if possible matching your cid). Capture the process using usb monitor to see where exactly it fails and which error you get.

No rom matching your cid is available then, use the TyTN 1.18 rom.

I tried that ROM 2 times, once I plugged with holding camera button and second time without. I made monitor of QTEK rom aswell, because its the one which is changing phone screen from red green blue stripes to completly white. But nothing else is doin...
A attaching logs in zip file below. I have 3 files from each session, I dont know which are correct, 2 of them i saved and 1 is exported.
What do you think ?
I used USB-monitor from http://www.hhdsoftware.com/
very weird... usb seems not working but for what you say bootloader seems to be ok. Are you sure this was after patching the radio with universal unlocker? it seems totally a different problem :-$
I guess you'll have to wait until t-mob releases a ROM matching your CID and then flash it using the hermimg.nbh sd-card flashing method.
You can also try to connect to it via serial, I have no experience on that, but a search on these forums might tell you how...
keep us updated
How long I have to wait ?
Should I go to T-Mobile when I will be back to Scotland and tell them what I did or what ? Did I lose my warranty ? Do you know approximately how much they will charge me for flashing my phone ?
Do I really have no chances to repair it by myself ?

Until t-mobile releases a rom with your cid... it can be today or next year, I don't know.

I don't think you lost the warranty. They usually charge about 100 eur for flashing it back in the service centre. They do it by inserting a diagnostics sd card, but we don't have it for the Hermes

You can try flashing over serial port, and you can try sd-card flashing, but for sd-card flashing you need a rom matching your CID first.
Eureka!!!
Finally I made my device working again!
And I dont have simlock !
After trying everything.... ufffff.
THX !!!!!!
1) I downloaded ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v1.zip
2) Reset my phone in bootloader mode.
3) Plug USB cable.
4) Run HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v1.
5) After 20 min. my phone said ELO to meeeee He did not have simlock when was saying that.
YE YE YE
That was simple. If you have any Hermes radio problem, try that first - HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v1.
Will be more often here, forum seems to be really interesting.
YO!
Yipie
Glad it worked

Please read the wiki and the mrvanx guide at the bottom of my signature before hand if you want to avoid bricking your device if this is your first upgrade.

Hi,
I am trying to upgrade my orange m3100 to wm6 (Blackmajic), i have successfully upgraded the bootloader and radio version but when i come to upgrade the WM6 Rom i get error 260 which says check the cable. I have tried on 2 different pc's and different cables.
Basically the phone is connected but when you get past all the tick boxes and press update active sync drops out just before it updates.
Has anyone had this problem or do they know how to solve it?
I have also tried different Roms
Thanks for your help Jason

What IPL/SPL it displays now ? ,Does it get into Bootloaders ? if it still does than download and flash 'wizard_love_rom' hope it'll recover back.
RE:
It just boots into a white screen. If i hold the camera and power buttons together it boots into bootloader mode, and says USB in the bottom corner. (when i am conncected via usb) but the problem is that active sync doesnt recognize it in bootloader mode. I have tried flashing it in many different ways and i have had no success.
When i go home i will try wizard_love_rom.
and as for the IPL/SPL, i will also check that when i get home.
Where can i download the wizard_love_rom?
Thanks for the help !

Can you send me the link for the easiest way to do it on a G4 cingular 8125 (HTC Wizard.)
I have never CID unlocked, which was probably why i got the white screen earlier. but do i need to do it know that i am on the wizard love rom?

I know that this may be getting a little annoying for you and im sorry for that, but i need your help on this. I am currently running the wizard love rom. And I have Hard SCP'd.
I have to problems:
1. My EDGE doesn't work, i only get GPRS speed data.
2. I can't upgrade to any new rom..... i always get "ERROR [300] Get a newer update utility!"
How can I fix both of these problems?
I have searched forums and google and nothing has come up.

ok,for error (300)you can use the RUU MUNS already posted in the 'HardSPL' thread,download the RUU_MUNS application extract it to a folder and copy and paste all the files of this extracted to the folder of the Rom replacing all the RUU files in that folder or copy the nk.nbf folder in the Rom to the extracted folder of the RUU_MUNS and then run the RUU,it will start to flash and complete and hopefully fully boot up.
For edge or gprs,you'll have to get network settings of your network carrier or check out the thread from where you downloaded the rom,its uaually posted there or check out the 'Network' thread.
Aquestion to Zabardast_1 ?
294 error , invalid vender ID
what does that means & asolution to it during rom update
ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID
One of these error messages will appear when you use the wrong RUU to do the upgrade. RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the device. Make sure you use the appropriate RUU tool to upgrade.
