Hello everybody. First have to say that I have been a lot of hours reading the guides and searching at the forums but just can't find a solution.
Could anybody give me advice please ? My O2 xda in german language
ipl 2.15.0001
spl 2.15.0001
gsm 02.19.21
os 2.15.4.47
Want to change to korand's 2.6
have tried to hardspl following all the steps carefully: no success, when I execute romupdateutility_NV_G4, it says "error 300, invalid update tool".
any idea ? thank you.
EDITED: problem solved, found a updated "update utility" and everything done ok.
Please share this update utility with us
I am fixed my problem with hardspl.
At this link you have the best utility with HardSPL. Download that and read rule number 2.

this link
Thanks, but:
I downloaded your update package (zip file complains that there are dual folders but seems ok anyways)
I have a Qtek S200 stuck at BookLoader.
IPL 2.10
SPL 2.20.0001
This tells me it's a G4 device.
When I reboot with Camera and Power I see the USB symbol and I head windows finding the device. Active Sync Installed with USB disabled.
I open command prompt and navigate to the G4 HardSPL directory and run HardSPL.bat.
The utility asks me to press a key, I press a key,
after about 5 seconds a dialog box appears, telling me failed to connect to device , trey , cancel abort.
What's missing here?
Read careful
Connect your device to the usb port then go to HardSPL folder and run HardSPL.bat from your PC. (Thanks to Prislav)
The HardSPL.bat will perform the SoftSPL first and then will do the HardSPL. so you don't have to do the SoftSPL manually.
Before doing the HardSPL you should know:
* SPL - Second Program Loader is a boot loader. SPL is similar to a BIOS in a computer and can be flashed and updated.
* G3 or G4: If you soft reset your phone you will see four numbers on top left of the screen. The first one is IPL version. which has this format : #.##.000# the last digit of IPL version indicates if the device is G3 or G4. the G4 device IPL version will end with 0001 and the G3 device IPL version will end with 0000. for example if your device is G4 you might see something like: 2.20.0001
* the reason we HardSPL the phone is that the original SPL that comes with the phone check the CID
I have a Qtek S200 stuck at BookLoader.

If the device is stuck in bootloader, try flashing a WM5 ROM (some on the ftp server) with USB in active sync disabled, and then try HardSPL once the device is running properly.

Hi
My phone is I-mate k-jam (kind of G4).I unlocked my phone’s CID by hard SPL program from your website . I could not install phone’s original rom. Then I installed original rom by shelltools program. My phone is not operated after hard resetting. When I switch on my phone, it stopped in three-colored page. Please be kind enough to conduct me.
You need to remove the hard spl in order to go back to the original rom

error [294] : invalid vender id
please help
@behzad_sedat
What is the SPL version?
Invalid Vendor ID means it's not CID unlocked..
So you need the original i-mate ROM obviously. Not the HTC/Qtek ROM..
BTW.: Soft SPL doesn't work in bootloader, it needs WM 5/6 in order to load the Soft SPL.
Connect USB cable, kill wscecomm.exe (in PC's taskmanager) and start the RUU.
Forget the warning the Ruu tells you about having an active activesync connection. Flash the original iMate ROM.

Dear Sir
I explain my problem more accurat. I downloaded Soft SPL accompanied by Vodafone Qtek 9100 G4 IPl&SPL.zip after reading topic of How To Remove HardSPL and according teaching I transferred nk.nbf file from Vodafone Qtek 9100 G4 IPl&SPL.zip file to Soft SPL file .Then I wanted to perform Start-sSPL.exe file but I could not perform. Then I found Soft SPL is not operated in Bootloader.Then I performed 2.exe (ROMUpdateUtility MFC Application) file in Soft SPL file accidentally. I thought it is being installed. After accomplishment I found my phone’s spl has turned from olip to 2.17.0001.So I wanted to install original ram but I couldn’t install. It is installed wm6 on my phone completely now but it is stopped in spl page. I think I could not remove my phone’s hard spl completely. Please be kind enough to help me.

I tried the following steps on my O2 Xda Mini S and after rebooting it doesn't show the SPL is 2.21.olip. It just show the original version.
Any help out there?
-connect your device
-Start hard_SPL-G4.exe
-Push the "Check DOC" button
-> The tool now checks whether your device is truly a G4, if not, it will give you an error and stops.
-> after this a dos box pops up, and it loads the softSPL to your device, to enable hard-SPL flashing.
-> then a Rom Update Utility will start, ONLY proceed if your screen is white!
-Proceed with the upgrade, it will only take a minute.
After reboot the IPL version is : 2.21.0001 and the SPL is 2.21.olip
Thanks
What is your current ROM, IPL/SPL?
Have you tried another USB port, or even another computer?
try to ugrade other rom (try the new TNT )version but take care ROM must be without ipl and spl !!!
here is link for version with ToucFlo
don't forget to use MUN's RUU
make the update on yours root drive !!! C:/ !!! i mean the update and ROM files must be on it !!!
Let the proccess going to the end and if it stops at 99% don't panic
wait and it will end and restart !!!

i am following mr vanx guide found here:
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=59&Itemid=27
to downgrade my device to SPL1.06 and IPL1.01 using file HERM_SPL1.06_Only_CustomRUU.rar
however, once i flash my device, it lists that I have SPL1.06 and IPL1.00, not 1.01. I have tried the flash using 'SPL-1.04/1.10 - SPL - 1.09 Bootloader' and also 'Force using SSPL' with no luck.I am running a hermes 100 but I still have WM6. i just thought about this, but do i need to downgrade to a signed cingular/att signed ROM before this will work? I need to be running IPL1.01..any help or ideas please?
*edit*
now the device boots and connects toactivesync fine, but when i try to flash a radio rom, WM rom, ipl/spl update (2.10, 1.06 doesnt matter) the device reverts to the tri-color screen after verifying the information on your hermes, but then is not able to update. it is saying that the connnection can be made to my device, is this because of ipl 1.00??? please help!!!
**LATEST**
ok the problem now is that it willnot update anything anymore... as i try the update process the phone goes into the bootloader mode and shows
HERM100
IPL-1.00
HERM100
SPL-1.06
while the computers says 'verifying the information on your device.' I have tried complete packages such as 'RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3.62.502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe', and also packages with seperate ruu wrapper such as what is found in 'Hard-SPL-V7.zip.' I donot know why the update process freezes at this step...please this is really killing me.
chapter 2
moving on... I found the 'fix' for this in the wiki, however when using the 'mtty.exe' file it says to "select USB" from the dialog box but I cannot get an option for anything else except COM 1-4 in the diag box... what do i need to do to enable the USB option???? and yes i disabled activesync like it says obviously.
its like the device cannot be recognized by usb while [the device is] not actually running windows... argh!!!!
Sometimes you need to restart your hermes and than run the mtty.exe.
Hi there, i have a situation that happened to my s200/G4 when i've tryed to update:
First i've updated IPL to 2.20 and it went ok showing on the device IPL 2.20.0001. Then when i've tryed to update SPL to 2.20 also and here the problem acoured. in the end it showed ok but when it rebooted it showed IPL 2020.0001 and SPL 2.20 and nothing else...... after this the s200 always stops at the bootloader screen. I'v tryed the hard reset, soft reset, latest i'v tryed the ppc charge trick(cut wires, etc...) i can even put the s200 discovered in the pc as a usb htc device(bootloader) but when i try to update to a new rom or anything the update program (always used g4 software and confirmed that it is a g4 ppc before update) it says that it can not communicate with the device....?!?!?
well, the device is showing in the device manager as a usb ppc device.
i don't know what to do more.
since he is connecting to the pc, how can i force him to accept any firm?
really this is a complicated situation to me since i am a beginner.
If anyone can help me please do. I would apreciate it.
Thanks

So lets see if any one can help us out, and keep me posted if you manage to do something, and i'll le you know if i succeed in the meantime.
Anyone would care to help uus out?
THank you very much in advance.

Try Soft SPL
Instead of hard SPL, why don't you try just Soft SPL?
Search the Soft SPL thread, copy the 3 files to your Prophet root (\) dir and execute the SPL link, answer YES to the Program Executing Firewall if it pop up.
You'll need some WM5/6 to be able to operate the Prophet in order to do this, I went from the BootLoader directly to PDAViet Step 1 Temp WM5, after it ask me to tap the sreen to begin to use the device, I follow all the steps in order to have a WM operative, then use ActiveSync to Explore and copy Soft SPL to root dir.
After this, execute Soft SPL from your pocket, a blank screen will came. Press the Camera Button (Just in case), the Execute "ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G3.exe" or G4 equivalent from your nk.nbf preferred WM6 ROM.
Some time you'll have to unlplug the PDA and plug it again so the update to WM5 PDAViet Temp to begin without the "PDA not connected error", please, be advice that Activisync will be disable during this Bootloader stage, I mean, It will not sincro nor anything, but you'll still be able to update to Step 1 WM5.
You haven't actually done HardSPL right. Not an expert so I can't help you do it, there are guides on this forum though. But your IPL wont show 2.20.0001 ... it will have something with G4 in the middle. Sorry I can't be more specific, I only fixed this on my phone last night.
Just got Hermes vodafone with German language and successfully loaded hardspl and have it in supercid. Now i want to upgrade to english version, but i keep getting error 260. PDA stays in RGB mode and saying USB. If i disconnect the cable it switches to Serial.
I have tried to update with
vodafone 1.20.161.6 aku 2.3
vodafone 2.07.161.1 aku 3.3
htc 1.35.255.102 aku 2.3
they all report the same. Have tried rebooting computer as said in wiki, but no success.
i now use original
HERM200
ROM 1.20.126.3
RADIO 1.16.00.0
any idea?
Thanks
Are you sure it is a supercid? Write the SPL, can you boot os?
Yes, i can boot os fine.
SPL-1.40.Olipro
IPL-1.01
I did supercid procedure with success....at least i thoughts so. It's my fist upgrade, so anything is possible. I used HTC Hermes SIM & CID Unlock - v3a
Thanks
I have the same problem with my second-hand JASJAM. The only way I can flash ROMs on my phone is by using RUUWrapper and select force SSPL and this always works well.
COME ON people!!!
A simple search would have remedied this...its been a topic so many times now!
The reason the official RUUs wont work correctly is because of the fact that HardSPL has been loaded, hence the SPL version isnt recognised, you gotta flash the official .nbh file using CustomRUU.
But first update to the latest version of HardSPL (see the sticky thread).
When you run the customRUU program select your SPL version (or use autodetect) and off you go!.
EDIT:: to get you started, Hardspl is HERE.....flash it.
then open the RUU with winzip or winrar and copy over the .nbh file into a folder.
download CUSTOMRUU.....run it from that folder with your device synced over activesync....select your SPL and voila.
Silly fella's. Its alright though I used to make the same mistake. I think im better friends with the search feature on here than I am with my real friends. You can always rely on the the WIKI or the search.
Thanks for help mrvanx i manage to flash with no problems now.
Promise to read more wiki next time
My problem was the same described in this post (too recent SPL).
I similar problem only difference is now phone wont go out of boot mode as its not recognised by active syn or in the rom update procedure.
Please help urgently cannot restore phone...and i dont know how
If you have Hard SPl V7 installed, try to re-install the rom, or a different one using the sd card method.
1. Format 2Gb or less sd card FAT32 and copy .nbh file onto it. Rename to hermimg.nbh .
2. Insert into Hermies and reset into bootloader, hold power, OK button under flywheel and reset with stylus hold all buttons in until you get to tri-colour (bootloader) screen.
3. Follow onscreen instructions...
Cheers...
