Hi,
I have just received a replacement M3100 from orange and it has got a different bootloader version. The one I have just received has SPL 1.11 installed. My old M3100 had SPL 1.09 installed.
The question is, if I update my phone to Hard-SPL 2.11oli and a new rom, will I be able to downgrade it back to the current SPL 1.11. I have had to do this before and flashed back to SPL 1.09, and original rom, and returned to orange without any problems.
I just want to know if I will be able to flash back to 1.11 in the future. Is this just the new orange standard issue? And is the SPL 1.11 loader available anywhere?
Thanks!

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:

@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

first flash HardSPL-1.10, then flash 1.04. Never go to 1.06.

1. Load HARDSPL V7 on your device. (Read the WIKI to know how to do that)
2. Flash your device using original ROM.
3. Downgrade IPL and SPL of your device.
4. Downgrade to SPL 1.10.oli ---> http://www.mrvanx.org/files/SPL/HERM_SPL1.10.oli_Only_CustomRUU.rar
5. Downgrade to SPL 1.04 or 1.06 :
(SPL 1.04, IPL 1.00 ---> http://www.mrvanx.org/files/SPL/HERM_SPL1.04_Only_CustomRUU.rar)
(SPL 1.06, IPL 1.01 ---> http://www.mrvanx.org/files/SPL/HERM_SPL1.06_Only_CustomRUU.rar)
Hi Guys,
I need to downgrade my phone for warranty purposes. 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 short to be able to send it back for warranty as for some reason my phone keeps dropping the GSM signal(tried flashing GSM-Radio and OS roms but no luck).
Following specs worked great for almost 6-8 months and now keep dropping signals
These were the specs from current ATT 8525 (HERM100)
AT&T 8525 (Hermes 100)
ROM: vp3G's WM6 v3.60 "Full" + Add-Ons
Radio: 1.54.07.00
IPL: 1.04 | SPL: 2.10.Olipro
I have already flashed OS and GSM ROM back to the latest ATT ROM from this link (http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=65&cat=2&dl_id=67). So current specs under device information are
AT&T 8525 (Hermes 100)
ROM: 3.62.502.3
Radio: 1.54.07.00 (This is not showing as currently there are no signals on phone)
IPL: 1.04 | SPL: 2.10.Olipro
Or do you think I should flash the device to the original ATT ROM (factory installed) from this link (http://www.htcamerica.net/support/8525/software-downloads.html).
Once this is done, I wish to rollback SPL and Bootloader back to factory settings. I am not sure the original version of the spl and bootloader. So if you think it's anyhow possible, can you guide me through the instructions?
I have 10 days before I return my current device with replacement unit.
Thanks in advance

Downgrading SPL and ROM
Hi here are the steps you will need to perform if you have Hard SPL v7 installed on your phone. (How do you know if you have Hard SPL or not? Just go into bootloader and if you see SPL 2.10 Olipro, you have Hard SPL.)
Next you will need to downgrade to Hard SPL 1.10 Olipro. You can find it here Hard-SPL. This is very important as this will allow you to downgrade your SPL.
Once this is done verify the SPL version in bootloader. It should be SPL 1.10 Olipro.
Now flash the manufacture specific ROM. This will take the device back to factory settings. It will also take care of the IPL and SPL versions.
Hope this will help you.

Great !! Worked like Charm !! Back to factory settings and ready for replacement.
Thanks mate
Morning,
I have a T-mobile HD2 I used the HARDspl 2.8 and I'm unable to return my device to the OEM SPL...
I tried copying the file to my card, renaming it to LEOIMG.nbh however the device will only flash the gray screen and return to the rainbow screen... Any advise?
Regards,
run hspl3 choose 2.08.0000
thats stock
If you want to go up to 2.10 (no real need. but its nice to match if you have the 2.13 rom) then remove hspl first as above, then run the 2.13 rom flash over usb
I was able to get it to revert to 2.08.0000, but I believed it was 2.10 or 3.10 after the TMO update to 3.14. Heck I have no idea and to be honest, this is the west my phone has worked since I first purchased it! LOL
it should be stock spl 3.03 now, and it works! winner.
It looks like many people got stuck at the first step that RUU flashed SPL.
Am I the only one, or all AT&T Titans unable to be flashed directly?
Are GoldCard and Y cable necessary for AT&T Titan?
Thanks!!
Yes you do need to install SPL 2.5 using GoldCard. Only the European Titans seem to flash without GoldCard. The SPL was probably derived from te Europe version.
Good luck!
For the time being HSPL is only successful on the Europe Verison of the titan and a very small number of US Titans... Theres something about going from the Stock AT&T SPL of 1.10 to DFT SPL that causes a glitch and prevents any modification of the SPL. As for now Cotulla and some AT&T titan users are working on the issue.
I updated to the HTC 2.6 SPL and had no problems with flashing the 2.5 SPL... Maybe that has something to do with it?
-Possibly.. but probably not...here's why...
I don't personally think upgrading the SPL to 2.6 had anything at all to do with it when we unbranded our devices. You have to look at it this way. SPL 2.6 was pushed out to very few Titans because of a Zune glitch when HTC pushed out SPL 2.5. Some unbranded devices that were running 2.5 already from the first HTC update could upgrade to DFTs SPL and HSPL without a problem - without having to upgrade to SPL 2.6.
However, I cannot relate to what I just said, as I did in fact upgrade to 2.6 after I debranded my device -in which everything went fine and dandy.
.....................................................
BUT...
All unbranded devices received a bootloader update back in Feb. causing the SPL to upgrade to 2.5. All AT&T Titans did not receive this update because ... ATT fails at life.
(IMO)-Going off by assumption here... (and don't take this seriously as I am just spewing out words AND this IS NOT anything against the DFT group -as I would sell every drop of blood of mine just to have them around any day)...that DFTs modified SPL was written as an exploit for only SPLs 2.5/2.6...which they "probably" or "could have" assumed the ATT devices had been upgraded already.
Which was why an ATT Titan, unbranded to a Euro rom w/ SPL 2.5/2.6 could install DFT's 2.5 SPL+HSPL without a hitch.
-OR-another scenario...As Tachi has said...
The 1.10 SPL just caused a massive glitch when someone tried to upgrade to DFTs 2.5 SPL.

Well said, it might not be necesary at all to upgrade to spl 2.6 to successfully flash dft spl /hspl after debranding att titan, but I will not take a chance when it only involves <1 minute of your time to do this step and it certainly works fine with my debranded att titan.
