The attached SSPL, USPL and HardSPL are based on the Nike shipped SPL v1.16
EDIT: HardSPL v.1.15 (MFG - manufacturing) with rtask support now added. I highly recommend to install this version !!!
1. download the attached files
2. REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !!
3. connect usb cable
4. copy sspl-1.16-nike.exe to your device and run it (usb cable must be connected!)
5. after a few seconds "USB" appears on the display
6. unplug and replug the usb cable
(OPTIONAL, better to skip it! step 7. if you only want to test the sspl try flashing the attached splash screen by running ROMUpdateUtility.exe from flash-splash-niki)
8. you can now flash the hardspl-1.15mfg-nike.nbh by running ROMUpdateUtility.exe from flash-uspl-niki
9. after installing the hardspl you can flash any rom (rom cook project here)
Note:
The USPL is not a "HardSPL" which means it gets overwritten when you flash a full ROM. You have to run the SSPL if you want to flash any ROM again.
The HardSPL is never overwritten which in case of flashing trouble is a great insurance. Should you want to flash another SPL or USPL you must run the SSPL.

Very wise words Pawel062, thanks for contributing them.
But not to worry, this SSPL works fine. I solved the usb issue.

Thanks for your job and happy New Year..
IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!
Hi guys, I'm sure there are thousands of posts with clear instructions for a newbie (like me) on how to flash the uspl (.nbh) file. To my eternal shame and after trying to search the the various forums, I'm still badly in need of some explanation (or a least a hint regarding what to search for) on how the flash the uspl file... Suggestions are most welcome.
Thanks in advance.
Works for me!
Many thanks
greate work ... time to create some roms!

In my first post I have added the flash applications to flash uspl and splash.
Thanks a lot! Both for the quick reply & for the effort involved in providing the sspl/uspl - works great..
this is awesome.

you're AMAZING man
followed the simple steps and flashed the WWE asia rom instead of the damn swedish rom i had and voila

I am posting this outside of the bricked thread in despiration. I posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1250132&postcount=1164 for intial help.
Quick recap...
Had no GSM on boot...device info showed no radio or protocol versions.
Tried HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a first, which might not have been the best choice. Load something (SPL i guess) then it stopped and tried recovery serval times.
Currently stuck in bootloader screen (tri-color) with this displaying:
HERM100
IPL 1.01
HERM100
SPL 1.40Olipro
Before flashing SPL was 1.11. I was instructed by digger_de to reload with new radio and select SPL 1.40 when asked... tried going to hard SPLv7 using latest CustomRRU...I selected FORCE SSPL (as per the guide) in the menu and tried to upload. Sits on "verify info on the hermes" screen then error 260 appears.
So I tried just to go to the new radio 1.41... I select SPL 1.40 from the menu..click update...get a progress screen that sits at 0% for a min or so...then error 262 displays. What do I do next?
Do I need to try KITLS or whatever, do I even have it? or do I need to use mtty and if so what commands?
I have read through the wiki and several threads, but I have not found something just like my situation.
I appreciate anyone that can point me the right direction.
Thanks,

Quick question, the latest radios have CustomRUU 4.3 in them (i know because i repackaged them).....check the wiki. When you select your SPL version do you tick "Is it HardSPL?" ??
I think your problem can solved easily, as you have Olipro's hard SPL already in place, this allows you to flash any ROM. With the phone on the boot loader screen (the coloured bars), connect it to the PC and then run one of the radio upgrades from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms - I currently use 1.40.30.00. If asked, select 'Hard SPL'.
If that doesn't work (i.e. you can't flash), you can try extracting the .nbh file from the radio upgrade, copy it onto a blank SD card, rename it to HERMIMG.NBH and reset the phone with the card inserted - see http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing for more information.
If you have any further problems I would strongly recommend that you spend some time reading the wiki - the answers to your questions are more than likely there.
I am having exactly the same problem as the op. When running Mtty get the same results just different checksums. (I have IPL-1.04)
When I flash just a radio rom it freezes. Does not matter if I do it via SD card or via PC.
Starting to get a bit frustrated with this and starting to get a bit too technical for me haha.
If anyone has any other ideas please let me know.
Cheers

Yessir...I did try that way. No go. Just sits on 0% for a min then phone restarts and PC (WinXP SP2 with .net 2) pops error 262 or whichever saying connection error.

I hope it is that easy. I appreciate your comments. Currently I do not own a SD card, but as soon as the plane lands this evening, I'll have one if you think that is the way. As for reading, I have read so much here over the past few weeks, it is crazy. That is part of the problem, there is tons of info here and on the wiki, some seems outdated, and as a new user, I wanted current instructions just to make sure I did everything correct.

KITL down´t work
to do a flash from the sd card works, but it breaks with a red number 00028002 or 00068002 on the screen. then the device reboots and nothing changed.
if i try to flash witah a tool (for example ruuwrapper.exe) it breaks by 7 %.
i have made log files with usbmon and saved them in ansi and uni format. but i don´t know where i can place them, tah you can see them. thay are about 8-9 mb.
what can i do ?
who can help me?
i hope my english isn´t too bad ;-) !
HTCSF kEØ(HTCE means corrupted CID, and since you have no KITL, and NO GSM, and are stuck in Windows Mobile screen, unless you can flash the original rom (and I don't think you can...), you have three choices:
1. Send it to www.imei-check.com and they can do a JTAG reflash.
2. Have a repair center replace the motherboard
3. Buy another unit, and keep your for spare parts

What about a "task 28" in mtty?
first mistake was not reading directions lol.. you should of had SPLv7 flashed to your phone before you started. there is a whole section in the wiki on bricks you might want to read as well as a whole 60 something page thread on bricks which might help you out. my best guess is send it in for repair or buy another and save the brick for parts. before SPLv1 there where lots of bricks. you also might consider sending your phone to Oli or pof so they can use it for tests if there still doing hermes work
Sorry if i hijack this thread.
but i have the same problem.
corrupted cid, No KITL, stuck @ windows screen.
But the gsm are still okay.
Any solution ??
Cos i have try all the solution here.
Trying upgrade using the orange rom its say device id error
using no id rom update still the same.
using sd card got the same error as batterie
help will be appreciated
thanks
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
I was in the repaircenter and they will change the complete device. in a few day i will get a new hermes and if i have a little bit luck i have to pay nothing.
if i will have more luck, i will have a mda touch.
when i will have the mda touch, what do i have to look for ???
what can i do with it and what not ?
what "mußt" i do ???
thank you for the help ...
I am sorry for your problems but it still amazes me that people are still flashing there phones without flashing HardSPL first.
I am interested as to why you did not flash HardSPL first, is the information too deeply buried or not easily found?
I didn´t found the information.
i have flashed my hermes about 10 - 15 times with different roms and operationsystems (wm 5, wm 6, radiopatch 1.xx, splash screen, own cooked roms, ..., up and down) and had no problems.
i think the last rom was not for the hermes device.
now i flash first hard spl and then i will try again all the roms ...
without the bricked device i have never heard about mtty, hard-spl, flash by sd card, ... and so on. so i think it was good for me, that i have bricked the device ;-)
learning by doing ...
without a little bit luck i will have in a few weeks two devices, one hermes (mda vario II) and one mda touch ... then i will use the hermes for test and the touch for work ...
thankxxx
i already read those wiki.
the only solution there is
Flash any shipped ROM matching your CID, if such rom is not available wait until your carrier releases it or send it to repair or warranty...
The problem was the device was corrupted cid so i cannot upgrade using the shipped rom (always country id error)
i try to bring to service center.its say it need to be replaced motherboard. and sadly its not cover the guarantee cos not official rom.

Go to MrVanx guides and read up on upgrading and stuff. The guides will let you know what must be done.
I'm new to HTC devices and to XDA. I received the device with 6.1 Professional and I wanted to see if 5 was any faster. I thought I was downgrading from 6.1 to 5 but apparently I flashed the bootloader to SPL 2.03.
I can access the bootloader screen (power + ok + soft reset). When I turn on the device normally, I get a green light but nothing else happens. I've had it for less than 24 hours so I hope I didn't brick it already. I jumped into the flashing thing way too quick. I did some research and tried several different things. (Mtty + spl-1.04.nb = Command Error!!!!!)
If you've got any ideas I'd love some help, please!
Just to add a few more details to this:
The tri-color screen (which I've learned is the bootloader?):
HERM100
IPL-1.04
HERM100
SPL-2.03
What happened:
I bought the phone with Windows Mobile 6 Professional (I think it was 6.1). The ROM on the device was Schaps 4.x (not entirely sure if it was 4.3 or not). In a fury of excitement and rushing, I was thinking (and I don't know why) that a 300KB SPL file was going to bring me back to WM5 and hopefully make the device move a bit quicker. When I updated the device, the update utility said my old version (Schaps 4.x) and the new version (of the SPL). I clicked update, and within 10 seconds, I had nothing more than a green light and no display.
I can access the tri-color screen, I've tried the microSD card methods (every ROM gets to 100% then the device completely shuts off. The only way to get it back on is to either pull the battery and press power (no display/green light) or power + ok + reset.
To make things more complicated I have access to two operating systems at the moment: Windows 7 (Beta) and Ubuntu 8.04. Windows 7 seems to work great with the device.
In WMDC I can't see the device since it's in the tri-color screen, but I am able to see it via mtty and the RUU installers when needed.
I've had the device for probably 1 day solid, is there any way to unbrick this puppy? Is there a way to rewrite the SPL (mrvanx doesn't have the CustomRUU SPL files any longer).
If you need more info, let me know. All my knowledge from flashing ROMs and all this terminology is from this site so thanks to all of you! I also have a background in computers (Windows/Linux - 10yrs) hardware and programming C (the basics anyway) and also web programming in PHP/SQL. I know how to fix most PC problems I've come across but this is simply beyond me. HOWEVER! I am totally willing to take on the challenge of learning a semi-new platform.
whats the link to the file you tried to flash? It sounds like you have tried to flash something no designed for hermes, but without knowing what it is you originally tried to flash very little help can be given. Can you still access the tri colour bootloader?
If you can and you have a full rom you can use, then these files will let you try and flash the windows os back on the device
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_CustomRUU
try flashing this rom
http://rapidshare.com/files/18315008/RUU_HER_CINGULAR_2.06.502.3_1.34.00.10_SPL1.04.exe
if it fails at 100% try extracting the files from the exe file ,simply right click on the exe installer and click extract to then open the folder and right click again on the ruu_inside.exe and extract those to a ruu_inside folder (you need winrar installed to be able to do the extracting) Now extract the hermes_customRUU files in to a folder and copy the nbh file from the ruu_inside folder to the folder you extracted the custom ruu files to and install from there. If that also fails then i would try this file which contains no spl or radio
It will at least give you some indication of where it is failing if you are able to flash the OS
http://rapidshare.com/files/18475719/Hermes_WM6_vanilla.rar
Another option is to try flashing this rom
http://rapidshare.com/files/52912451/RUU_Hermes_TMO_UK_3.60.110.2_6275_1.50.00.00_108_Test.exe
also add to any comments you make and say where you are from, where you bought the hermes and as i have already said what it was you were trying to flash that got it in this state in the first place
To start off, I'm from Massachusetts. I bought the phone off craigslists from a guy in Connecticut (about 1hr from where I live). He's actually a good guy, he's trying to figure this out also.
The original flash is as follows: I went to MrVanx's site, tried to download 2.03 (SPL Downgrade Guide). The link was dead (to the file) so I googled the filename and found it on.
HERM_SPL_2.03_CUSTOMRUU.rar:
http://rapidshare.com/files/151828006/HERM_SPL_2.03_CUSTOMRUU.rar
I found this my Googling the above filename and copying and pasting the rapidshare link from the description in the second result.
I then downloaded Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 and connected the device. (At this point my 8525 was running fine with WM6.1 (Schaps 4.x). I went through the RUU provided above (SPL_2.03_CUSTOMRUU) and it showed the version I had installed (Schaps) and the new version it was going to flash. I went through all the prompts and it took roughly 10 seconds to flash the device. After which the phone can no longer boot. I can access the bootloader screen (IPL-1.04/SPL-2.03) and I've tried flashing quite a few ROMs to no avail (4 or 5 OEM Cingular ROMS), VP3G ROM, Schaps 4.3 ROM.
In the RUU it never shows my old version (it's left blank). It'll show the new version (whatever the ROM is). Both my PC and device reach 100% and the RUU says it's completed successfully. The device hits 100% for about 4-5 seconds and then shuts off. When I power it up, I receive the green power light and nothing else on the screen.
I can still access the tri-color bootloader screen to this day, just whatever I flash seems not to work.
I've also tried using MTTY and ran all the INFO commands and the task 28 command and successfully reformated the device. (Not sure if that changes anything bootloader wise, but it's still 1.04/2.03 (IPL/SPL)).
I've downloaded the ModifiedRUUUpdater-v2 and I'm downloading one of the original Cingular ROMs as we speak. I'll post back later after I've tried all of your links/ROMs.
Thank you!
Your third link (TMO_UK) - I assume is T-Mobile.. my device isn't SuperCID so I don't think that'll work, but I'll try after I attempt the previous three.
Thanks,
Shawn
Well so far Vanilla ROM and Cingular ROM you provided failed to work. I received the 00068002 error when doing SD card method (copying files from W7 box). On my XP box (copied from XP to SD) it shows "Loading..." then the screen goes right back to the bootloader screen. I'm starting to wonder if there is a problem with my machines.
W7 is beta = a problem.
XP has bad HDD = a problem.
I'm going to install XP over W7 and try all these steps again.
...I'll be back!
EDIT: To make things worse, W7 is 64bit, so perhaps thats giving me some trouble? I'm going to XPH SP3 32bit. I'll be back in a couple hours with results then.
Ok, sorry for the multiple posting but here's the results on a fresh install of Windows XP SP3 with (.NET 1.1 and 2.0)...

try disabling active sync usb connections before trying to flash
I've done it without it checked and with it checked. Doesn't seem to work either way. I attempted to flash the AT&T WM6 ROM and once it said "Upgrade Completed. UPGRADE SUCCESS" I did a soft reset and received just received the green light (the screen still black).
I'm going to start a new thread all together with a more broad topic than what I assumed to be the problem because I don't think the SPL version matters at this point. I appreciate your help thus far and perhaps maybe if you think of a different approach on my situation you can post it?
Thank you again!
Solution for SPL2.03
hi there i am facing the same problem with my spv m3100 and tried out all the tools and tricks that u mentioned in your thread but all in vain....
your thread is almost 3months ago...
i would like to ask.. did u find any solution for that problem of spl2.03....?
if so then please share and help me...
Thanks.. i am waiting for your reply
Hi,
First of all, here are the facts:
0- I've an EU RAPH1000 CID: RAPH__023.
1- I'm always using HardSPL on my device. (SPL 1.90 OliNex)
2- I'm always flashing from my Micro-SD
3- I've flashed for the first time from AS the latest ATT test radio (1.12.25.19 OS AKU 1.4.6 Build 20771), nothing special.
4- My TP hangs on the first screen at boot (the screen showing the RADIO/Protocol/ROM versions and hangs).
5- I can access to the bootloader screen (tri color). I gues now that I can reflash. (great news)
6- I reflashed back my old RADIO (.25.01) - device still bricked.
7- I reflashed back different OSs - device still bricked.
8- I've tried the Raph system Diag 5.02c nbh. made the whole function tests - All the tests were OK but the "F/T 1" USB sync doens't work ? (I dunno how to test that) - The device still bricked.
9- I've formated the nand - The device still bricked.
10- I'm thinking about to use remote access to see what's happening inside the device using mtty but I dont know the different commands ( and I dont wanna kill all my chances ) so this is why I ask you some help.
Can any one tells me the mtty diag/edit commands () ? is there something specific about using mtty on RAPH ? which is the latest version ? is the access password the same for all HTC devices ?
BTW, did you have the same problem before on RAPH, and of course do you have any advise for me ?
I know I can use my warranty, but I ask here for a technical "do it your self" support . I want to understand, some of the Nand/Flashing hacks and make a full use of my devices, thanx to the xda community experts.
Your help will be really appreciated, for me and perhaps for future RAPH users.
Cheers

if you can goto bootloader you can flash other rom again.(using Activesync to connect PPC&PC. in that case the ROM data can also be trasfered, be sure that your battery must be over 50%).

Did you try to hard reset your phone instead of trying to flash roms ?
When you tried to reflash an O/S or Radio, was it by activesync or the memory card?

torpie,
formatting the NAND wouldn't work-- are you doing it ala frankenkaiser? since you're using olinex' harspl the mtty commands for formatting the NAND are blocked.
you may have hit a bad NAND block and unfortunately in the section where the radio is being written. I had this case on my kaiser and even if I formatted it, bricked it, revived it, reflashed it, I can't get passed to the OS radio screen anymore. So off you go to warranty
torpie,
Correct me if I am wrong.
I thought the test AT&T ROM has a SPL 1.65 which will be flashed over your existing Hard SPL.
You may have to reflash Olipro's Hard SPL 1.60 first before flashing to other OS ROM.

As I'm using HardSPL, this one is write protected (?) and the new one wont overwrite it. I'm still having SPL 1.90 OliNex at boot loader
- But I don't know if the HTCEPassWord for RAPH is the same as the reversed one for the DIAMOND ?
- I don't know either if I can mount the partitions thru SPLbootloader/ RadioBL to retrive my DATA ? with mtty/qmat /dev/BlockDevice ???
- the device is in "security locked" state.

That is not correct. I used the Test ROM for the radio and then immediately flashed another ROM after that. And I just confirmed by checking bootlloader and it is still 1.90

You remind me of rotohammer, you may want to pm him or cmonex
Here is his thread before: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=435527
I'm not sure about this, but I recall from cmonex (or olipro) that the format command (task 2a) they've disabled it in the hardSPL (current one we are using).
Just to know, Is the HardSPL based on an MFG ?
Can I use the "info X" to check for bad NAND ?
If it's the case, is it safe to "task 2a" to recover this bad NAND ?
I just wanna be sure before proceeding

thank you, but I already saw that thread, but for my case I didn't modify anything special. And BTW this thread don't explain how they did to recover the situation.
ATM I'm reading allot about different IPL/SPL bootloader & AT commands. I'ts more comfortable with Putty (copy/past) so will use that (I m a lazy man I know). TBH, I wanna know what's wrong on my device, and try fixing things before using my warranty. (I don't even know if it still apply)
Here is the sammary:
1- charge your battery.
2- remove the SIM and SD cards.
3- inter the bootloader.
4- connect to the PC via USB cable and make sure the screen shows USB.
5- flash the latest stock ROM here http://www.genghis.be/_HTC%20Touch%20Pro_RUU_Raphael_HTC_Europe_5.05.401.1_R_Radio_Signed_Raphael_52.58.25.30_1.11.25.01_Ship.rar
6- when it comes to the ALIGN SCREEN part, hard reset.
7- preferably reinstall the HARD_SPL.
8-if it doesn't work, you may have needed to buy the Rhodium anyway... goodluck

I didn't imply your case as the same with rotohammers'. I told you, you remind me of rotohammer-- he doesn't want to return his TP for warranty unless he knows what's happening to it.
And if you've read about that thread already you won't be asking the task 2a if it's safe. I've told you before it has been disabled/removed in the hard spl that we're using.
AND if you really, really read that thread, the solution to that even though you say "this thread don't explain how they did to recover the situation." was a MFG SPL.

You're right; I've missed some critical information about "task 2a" but what i've learned is that this one will wipe the whole NAND (OEM , SPL , OEMSBL ...etc) and it's important to reflash at least the HardSPL just before applaying a task 8 (before reboot). Task 2a is indeed a dangerous command, so it's normal that they've disabled it
anyway, I didn't mean to hurt you by my answer. just to tell you that I've seen that thread. In that case please forgive me
I'm trying my last hope, flashing the whole stock ROM with the MFG SPL. And try to see what happends.
Cheers
Great News,
I've successfully restored my NAND using a Complete & stock ROM update (5.05) from the HTC Website.
Now I'm trying to understand what's happening, and how to avoid this problem again.

I see that some Bad block are in there from the Block 134 (0x86) block to the BLOCK 3570 (0xDF2). btw I dont know what the reversed block means ?
ATM, I'm using the stock SPL 5.05.
So to recover these bad block, I think It's possible to "task 2a" or "task 28", but what I'm supposed to do after these commands ? lnb the HardSPL ?
I really wanna be sure that the bad block wont bother me in the future
your help will be appreciated

It is perfectly normal for a brand spanking new device to already have bad blocks on it. I bricked mine trying to port a radio from a different device. The 100% brand new device they sent me already had 6 bad blocks. The original I bought from the store had 7 bad blocks from the very beginning.
Reversed blocks are perfectly fine. No need to worry.

how can i flash hard spl 1.22 from bootloader?
• power off yuor niki (Remove for a couple of seconds the battery)
• press and hold power and camera buttons,you must have (tree color) bootloader
• connect usb cable
• run ROMUpdateUtility.exe (or Nike CustomRUU.exe) in a folther with hardspl-1.22-nike.nbh
salvy.c.83,I can't flash hardspl, it's stop at 0%..help please..

Don't you need an SPL Jump running to upgrade the SPL? But, if you can't get into an OS you can't run the jump exe.
You need to find a really old ROM hat only requires the HardSPL you have then flash that. Or try an official one? Or have you already tried that
