Hey all, Leaf Wireless, the new agents for HTC in South Africa seem to be on the ball. They have just posted the second ROM update in 3 weeks.
This one fixes a few issues including a voice message notification that was not on the older version.
Pof I can't get onto the ftp site at present. The username gets rejected. Have the last details you gave me changed?
Rom Version: 1.35.255.2
Rom date: 11/14/06
Radio version: 1.18.00.10
Protocol version: 32.55.7018.01H
Ext. rom version: 1.35.255.102
Enjoy!
Since this posting HTC Europe have announced a new ROM for HTC TyTN devices for release at the end of Jan 2007.(See my post elswhere). So before you go updating your ROM's with the ones presently available-hang on for a couple of weeks. I believe from my sources that this one is worth waiting for.
This news I got directly from HTC Europe and was confirmed by our local distributor. (who is pro-active!)
HTC claim it will resolve " all known issues"

Thank you!!
Looks like the South African HTC distributors lead the way in updates for the TyTN.
Maybe you can advise what's changed on this latest ROM update. - The voicemail notification is great - no more missed voicemails.
I had no problems in flashing the ROM and I am a novice!
Good luck.
Basil
Leaf Wireless South Africa rocks!
I am having a look at it now, but I'm at work and have not much time, at first try I saw that bootloader version has changed to 1.09 and Build date for this bootloader is "Nov 7 2006 22:59:17".
Will post details when I have more time to look into it.
Thanks Pof. I will be interested to find out what updates have been included. Nice to know that you work for a living!
Ha Ha
Great news!
Hopefully bootloader 1.09 won't mess up Super CID, from pofs great unlocker ... keep up the good work!!
excellent
hopefully its AKU3.2......
patience is running thin
I have just installed this twice with my super cid from Pof, and it keeped the super cid status.
sweet,
is the AKU still 2.3? or is it 3.X ?
Its still 2.3, so we still have to wait for 3.2
Any initial feedback on the performance of this ROM compared to others?
I'm thinking it might finally be time to bite the bullet (getting tired of waiting for an officially released TyTN ROM) and upgrade...
can anyone,who update this rom,tell me,if we can bootloader downgrade to 1.04?
Hi
If I install this rom in my
softbank X01HT this will turn the SID lock again ?
If yes.
I can still downgrade the bootloader to 1.04 with
'Extracted 1.04 bootloader-only upgrade' and then use the 'HERM_UNLOCK v2a.exe' again
Thanks
Adriano
It seems that once bootloader 1.09 is installed it is impossible to downgrade it even with the firmware with the same CID as a device and lower version numbers. The radio stack and the rest downgrades fine, but bootloader stays 1.09. Damn... Should have followed the unlock procedure while had 1.04.
this mean that if I install tjis rom and my phone don't work with Softbank Sim I can't reinstall other type of rom again?
correct?

Yes that would appear to be the wise thing to do! Unlock the phone and set permanent SuperCID with Pof's v2.0a unlocker, then try this rom. The phone should stay unlocked and superCID will stick.

You can reinstall other types of ROM with the CID matching yours, but even if you do your SPL won't be downgraded. I just confirmed it by reflashing two slightly different WWE ROMs - Bootloader stays SPL 1.09 no matter what you do!!!
UPDATE: Upgrading to bootloader 1.09 also means that Radio-only ROM upgrade is also out of the question.
Hi,
I have a T-Mobile Hermes 300
It has Telstra's software on it for Australia (from the previous owner)
It has the following installed:
IPL of 1.01
SPL of 1.06
Rom Version: 1.31.305.2
Radio Version: 1.20.31.10
Protocol Version: 32.52.7020.00H
ExtROM Version: 1.31.305.103
I am interested in upgrading just the Radio firmware to the latest revision available on here, is this possible without installing other firmware such as the OS?
I was planning on installing that Anti Brick SPL software before considering to upgrade it, is this the correct course of action? then just install the Radio firmware?
Will I loose the Telstra software? or can I use 3G even without it?
If I could continue to use 3G with Telstra in Australia and worldwide I'd be even happier!
Thanks!
Alex
You don't need the cusomtized Telstra software to use their 3G network. All you need is your device (assuming it is unlocked from TMobile) and your SIM card for Telstra.
I read some post around here specifically about Telstra. May want to search before you do anything - try to google forum search for Telstra 3G upgrade or something like that.
Thanks for that, I had a check and nothing really specific came up with google.
So all seems good on that frontier.
Now just need an answer on the Radio firmware part!
EDIT!!
Install HardSPL first (guide)
then install the new radio (guide)
I have a pristine TyTN from Rogers that I have to return in a week. Is anybody interested in radio 1.42.00.00 that shipped on the device? The OS itself is an old build of WM5. I am not sure whether the instructions for dumping the ROM will extract the radio:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom
Full info:
ROM : 1.34.631.14
ROM date: 04/17/07
Radio : 1.42.00.00
Protocol: 32.75.7020.18H
OS 5.1.195 (Build 14955.2.3.0)
If someone is willing to step me through it, I'll be happy to oblige in an effort to give back to xda-developers!
Cheers!

From what I understand, seems like you cant dump radio rom.
yep, I mean nope...
I offered a month ago to dump my Rogers ROM. I flashed my ROM but not my Radio, and the consensus from the maestos was that it couldn't be extracted.
They need to wait for a RTM version by itself.
There is a 1.43 version out as well, don't really know enough about which is "better", but my Rogers 1.42 radio is really solid.
Great, thanks for the feedback guys!
I am currently running WM5 (for details and radio - see signature) on my Tmobile Vario II and have HardSPL'd it. After reading a lot of posts wiki and reference forums (mentioned below) on power tests, suggesting this radio to be fairing the best, i have closed on to upgrade this version.
However, i could see that all the people upgrading did have WM6. The question is that is it OK to do a radio only upgrade to 1.47.30.10 with WM5 running.
Has any one had issues with 1.47.30.10 on WM5?

Yes its fine, flash away.....be carefull though remember the radio flash is the most risky. Make sure your not using a USB hub or have ANY chance of interrupting th process.
Thanks mrvanx.
If i flash Schaps WM6Pro Hermes 4.31 WWE Full, will it do/ask for the radio upgrade also? If yes to which version? If no then how stable is my current Radio i.e.
Radio Version: 1.16.00.00
Protocol Version: 32.53.7018.01H
with respect to 1.47.30.10. Is it worth upgrading considering the risk you have mentioned?
Hi guys , i'm a newbie . My radio version is : 1.16.00.00 , i want upgrade but don't know which rom is good for me . My bootloader is :
HERM200 IPL-1.01
HERM200
SPL-1.40.0lipro
Which radio roms i should choose ?
Upgrade to Hard SPL V7 first..... What you have is an older, unsafe version. Before flashing a radio rom you HAVE to upgrade so your SPL is 2.10 oli...
Also, the info you have given is useless... Radio roms are area and carrier specific.
Where are you and who's your carrier? You might receive an answer then....
Hello, picking up on an already open radio thread, does anybody know which is a good radio for Argentina (South America), carrier Personal?
Thanks!
