I've never downgraded IPL or SPL but other than that I've gone back to original config with my UK Vodafone branded Hermes.
There is a section in Mrvanx's guide on SPL downgrading here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299462 but you may need to search a bit further for the IPL downgrade.
Good Luck.

so at this point my goal is to follow mrvanx guide and downgrade the ipl and spl and then i was planning to reinstall the officially released wm6 upgrade in the hopes that it would put its own version of its ipl/spl on the phone. the problem im encountering is when i run the downgrader the phone asks me will i allow bl.exe to run and i click yes
it goes into the red/green/blue/white screen and says its
herm100
ipl-sspl by des
herm100
spl-1.09.ds
wtf is that? it wont let me go past this point, ie i get an error when it tries to verify information from the phone. i can restart the phone and it goes back to windows and olipro2.10 --- im not sure what direction to go? should i try to put an original wm5 rom on the phone then try to downgrade again or what?

hard spl is the way to go i think
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=27

i have hard spl 2.10.... im trying to get rid of it and return the phone to factory like conditions, well not really factory cus im going for the official wm6 but essentially i cant send my phone in for the warranty with olipro on it so im trying to ditch it, but the posted methods arent working for me

Searching returned almost 30 different threads. Have you looked here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314107

Are you following the MrVanx guide carefully? I have never had an issue following the steps carefully. The info you are getting is because it is using the force SSPL option, which it should. I would suggest you try again, following the directions very carefully. Good luck. It really should work.

when it gets to the screen where i see spl-1.09.ds the ruuwrapper provided from mrvanxs guide says "Verifying the information on your Hermes... Please wait..."
this is where i get an error 260 and its asking that i check the usb cable and what not which i know isnt the issue. im gonna try this on the other comp in my house which is xp. i have been trying this on a vista machine

so it worked on my windows xp rig. once i downgraded the spl, i reinstalled the official wm6 and it upgraded the ipl to 1.04 and the spl to 2.03 which im happy with and have already placed my order for the warranty exchange.
thanks for the help to those who helpful

Problem downgrading SPL

I am currently trying to downgrade my spl before sending my phone to be repaired. I am following the Mrvanx guide. Unforunately, I am sending my phone back because the screen input no longer works. Therefore, I can't get past the windows mobile setup screen. So, I can't get activesync to work and therefore can't force use SSPL to downgrade my SPL.... ( RUUWrapper doesn't think there is a phone connected)
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Cheers
Simon
cook a rom with the touchscreen alignment disabled.

Which bootloader are you on??
Same as you:
IPL: 1.04
SPL: 2.10.Olipro (HardSPL v7)
I'm trying to do the two part process of downgrading...
Downloads the CHT original rom
Were you able to downgrade? I'm in the same boat, no screen taps and can't downgrade to 1.10.
Read Mrvanx's SPL downgrade guide but it fails with a comm error during the 2.10 to 1.10 downgrade using hard-sspl. If I select 2.10 as the boot loader it seems to load the spl ( gives me progress bar) but when I go back to the boot loader it's still at 2.10 Olipro.
My touch screen is dead and have to return for warranty after receiving replacement or AT&T going charge me. Screen always stuck at " Tap Hear to setup".
Thanks.
Bypassed aligment and was able to downgrade
In case some poor schmoe finds this in the future, I was able to get around the screen alignment and downgrade my spl.
I found how to bypass welcome screen here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=218992&referrerid=366117
Once I did this, I was able to say "Yes" to running enterbl.exe and downgraded to olipro 1.10 using mrvanx's guide and then re-flashed the original cingular ROM which also flashed spl.

Help with Telstra JasJam please

Does anyone have a stock-standard JasJam with Telstra in Australia, which has never been upgraded with HardSPL or a cooked version of WM6?
Or if you have upgraded, can you recall what the stock standard settings should look like ?
When I enter into bootloader mode (if that's the correct terminology) by holding down the OK and Power buttons, and pressing the reset button at the bottom of the unit with the stylus, what should I see ??
I am currently seeing -
HERM100
IPL-1.00
and
HERM100
SPL-1.06
Is this the way it should look if it has never been upgraded with HardSPL or a cooked ROM ?
Thanks in advance.
Why do you need to know this?
If it is for warranty, dont worry - I sent mine back with a cooked ROM and HardSPL and they fixed it no worries at all. They did however flash it with the latest Telstra firmware, which I promptly replaced when I got home.
Cheers!
I'm looking at my very green eBay purchase of an untouched Telstra JasJam.
IPL Ver 1.01
SPL Ver 1.06
(lets see how long it takes me to brick it)

NO lets not.
Flash HardSPL BEFORE DOING ANYTHING.
bricking jasjam
I agree with MRVANX, I highly recomend not to brick the jasjam, I accidently bricked mine only response I got from it was the red pwr led, totally stuffed and a waste of A$1300
my Jasjam was
IPL : 1.01
SPL : 1.11
This was a stock jasjam from telstra as of Oct. 06. Not that anymore.

Error 260 AGAIN!!!! HardSpl flash

Hey Guys,
I've searched the threads, but nothing written there helped.
Here's my problem. (German T-Mobile MDA Vario II with Schaps 3.57 update)
I would now like to use the official T-Mobile WM6 version that has been released a few weeks ago, but I can't downgrade to any other version or even upgrade to Schaps 4.31 version.
I have read and tried everything stated here.
While trying to flash to hardspl v7, I always get the ERROR 260.
The MDA always shuts down, red-green-blue-white display, then a hole white display with LOADING (for a few seconds) and then again red-green-blue-white display, but then it always displays a different IPL and Spl version and just stands still.
Heres the point where I press the Soft-Reset-Button and it just starts up normal. If I go back and check the IPL and SPL it always shows the version from the beginning (IPL-1.01 and SPL 2.03).
Does anybody know the problem I have here?
Downgrading to any other version doesn't work either.
i can't help you but i've been having the same error. read the forums, followed the instructions, but still can't fix it.

You might need to reflash it. Hold the two soft keys and then push the reset button. it will ask to hard reset. If the phone fails to come on after the hard reset, then hold the left 'ok' key and the power button, and then push the reset under the phone- this will take you to a tricolor screen where you can then re-flash the phone. try reflashing with official rom's, before using any other roms.
yes i do but it still in boot any sugest ipl 1.01 spl 1.40 olipro if any know how to update ipl with hard spl or how to remove hard spl it will be aprecible
My suggestion would be to try using sd to reflash the rom and see if that orks. format sd card making sure its fat 32 then put .nbh file in root directory. rename to herimg.nbh then insert into phone. go to bootloader and it should start the flash straight away. if this works make sure you upgrade spl to olipro 2.10 hard spl so its easier if there are problems. you can possibly upgrade spl this way too (get nbh file and rename hermimg.nbh). I tried this on my herme 100 and it seemed to work. it will flash the spl BUT when it restarts it will go straight to bootloader and start flashing again. as soon as it restarts get the sd card out and put on the os you want to flash. insert card and as long as you've named it hermimg.nbh it should flash new os with spl olipro 2.10. Good luck flashing.
You should read the wiki first : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
your phone can be unbricked using the information on wiki.
only enter to bootloader the ipl dosent start also i fla**** but it stil apear spl.140oli whei in flash it with hard spl 1.10 and when i flash it with spl 2.60 oli it send me a error i try to flash it with qtek-cingular-doppod roms and nothing any suggest

If you want people to help you, you have to help yourself first!
1st of all, have you gone to read the Wiki as suggested?
2nd what methods have you tried to unbrick your device?
If you can't answer these questions then we can not help you, you keep asking for suggestions but you do not even reply to other's questions!
Here's a good place to start helping yourself if you haven't already http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1465974&postcount=1

have you SuperCID your phone as of yet? Sounds like it is not unlocked.
Try that, and let me know if that makes a difference.
Cheers
It sounds like the radio rom is corrupted... If you can try to flash the ORIGINAL SHIPPED STOCK ROM on to your hermes... It MIGHT fix the "No GSM" error...
If this doesn't work then you won't be able to use the Hermes as a phone again but you can load other OS's on and use as a PDA....
mikendawn, Super CID WON'T work to repair the radio rom. You seem to think its the be all and end all solution... Unfortunately this isn't the case...
Loading Hard SPL V7 on is as good as Super CIDing your Hermes as all it does is allow you to put other carrier/cooked roms onto your Hermes and allow you to use them.
No, not quite that, I thought his phone wasn't SuperCID. I didn't think it was the end all solution. Just thought it sounded like his phone was CID Locked.
Cheers
here can find a original rom for my phone
