After a lot of work, experimentation and hundreds of hours of development time, AP4 is finally ready.
PK - ROM cook, and professional harasser of developers, we gave him the ROM and he chucked the crap into it.
cmonex - Special Adviser/Developer/Low-Level Hacker; when not being harassed by PK, took a few spare minutes in the day to learn C# and write a config app with Olipro in the same stretch... also saved the PDA world with revolutionary new kernel and other patches, also included in AP4.
Olipro - the Hard-SPL guy; largely considers himself to be "too good" for the menial **** and so only enjoys things such as implementing overwrite protection for SPLs with none built-in with cmonex and replacing the HTC signing certificate (oh fooking yes baby). Also found time from blowing cigar smoke in the faces of small children to write the ROM deployer.
So, Here it is:
[size=+1]AP ROM v4.0[/size]
[size=+2]Install Guide[/size]
Smartarses beware: don't try to flash from bootloader.
also, if you need the changelog, great tips and addons, then as usual, go to PK's great thread [size=+1]Athena Project 4.0 Series[/size]
P.S: yes this post has been made by OliNex, even if it is hard to believe
congrats to ap team again!! evrey1 enjoy!

Unable to boot .....
I am unable to boot my AP3.0 and my SPL is v1.20 Olipro....
Any suggestions?
Fixed; currently booting AP3.0 > Fixed, now running AP4.0
Wifi not working
All,
My wifi is not working since the flash to AP 4.0.
My radio rom is 1.57.00.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
HJ
Had a successful flash.
installed Navigon
First i updated to radio 1.57 and then proceeded to install AP4.
Used my laptop, running vista home premium SP1.
Did not have to install drivers while in bootloader mode. windows never wanted any. made me a bit edgy so i let it wait 10 min. but everything went fine.
Nice and clear instructions. Kudos to the ap team
Btw everything working fine also wifi.
and installed Navigon 6.5 and its seems a bit faster now. might be my imagination, but i am happy
A big thanks!
Thanks for all the excellent work (and patience with some members of our community)!
Will give it a try and let you know.
Beautiful!
Very clear instructions, no problems with download, fast good-looking programs, no problems with connections. Kisses (and donation) to all!
my x7501 still has the standard shipped rom on it. would you guys recommend going to ap3 first, make sure it works then go to ap4, or just go straight to ap4?
i assume i have to use the old hardspl first so i can upgrade to radio 1.57 first though so i can install ap4. my current radio rom is 1.47
just need someone to give me a few clear steps on the order i should proceed with it all.
your help is appreciated

I wouldn't bother with flashing ap3,
just flash the radio, either 1.50 or 1.57 using

yeah i read that entire thread earlier. just want to confirm if i need to do anything special to install radio 1.57 like install the older hardspl, or do i just plug my athena into pc, and run that 1.57 update and it will go? and then follow ap4 instructions.

I'm running ROM Version 1.18.255.3
Radio Version 1.03.03.10
with boot loader 1.06
I want to know if I can upgrade the Radio version to one of the newer ones. I have an HTC TyTN, unlocked, using Cingular Service. I'm just worried that if I upgrade the radio I won't get any access...any tips, or suggestions?
Yes I have read the Hermes upgrading guide, but it doesn't answer my questions.
I'd try re-reading it, and a few threads on here that have to deal with RADIO roms....

Hi sir, it would be better for you to thoroughly read the wiki and various threads on this. Having seen your ROM version etc... I would definatly recommend flashing a newer TyTN rom, the latest one available that is still in WM5 is the AKU3.3 ROM which has the newer radio rom in it aswell, you will possibly get better call reception etc.... also the ROM is a HELL of alot more stable than the one you are running now. Video playback in TCPMP/Coreplayer works with ATi Imageon turned on, and works flawlessly in rawframbuffer mode (so you can watch divx and things on your TyTN....worth it for the train)
Dont be too quick to flash it though....definatly read up on what you are doing before you go ahead. Any more questions (once you have read up ) come back here.
Alright, I was up pretty late last night reading the wiki. I'll continue to read today, and then I'll have some more questions. I've almost got it sorted, so...
Thanks alot guys for the help, as I was considering returning my TyTN, and going back to my older mobile.

:O NO WAY!!!!! you havent even touched the realms of stuff you can do with it!
Ok so heres some questions to start off with.
After reading the wiki, I kind of took myself in a loop. At first I just wanted to upgrade the Radio. It told me to downgrade to 1.04, and then I would be able to load any radio version I wanted. So I went to the downgrade page, and it said I needed the CID Unlocker. I tried to download that, however the zip is a corrupt file. If anyone has it, and could send it to me, that would be appreciated.
Now my next question is...do I need to use the CID Unlocker to be able to upgrade the ROM? Or can I just download AKU 3.3, install it, and it will flash the ROM without any problems.
Thanks!
EDIT: So I went here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=282073, to check the CID / SIM Unlocker, but it says I need to downgrade to 1.04, because I can upgrade.
Try reading: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665
I read that, and I went ahead and ran the program.
I'm still using SPL 1.06
ROM Version still 1.18.255.3
Radio has been updated to 1.16.00.00.
Reception still hasn't changed much. I'll have 4Bars to start with, and then it will drop to 2...
I also used the CID/SIM Unlocker, so I'm good to go.
That means I should be able to load AKU3.3 right? Or should I downgrade to SPL 1.04 first?

So youve unlocked the device and changed it to SuperCID. Good work.
Just run the latest AKU3.3 HTC rom (its at the top). You will get an updated radio version and the new AKU, remember to backup all your stuff and be prepared to reinstall all the settings/applications. As i said again, dont flash the rom unless you are sure you know what you are doing.
I should be good. I'm about to run it, once it finishes the download.
I just have 2 conerns...will the radio reception be any better, and 2 is it really that much better? I was looking for the "updates faq's", or what was included, but I didn't see anything.
Also the other thing, is not really a concern but more of it being tiedious, is re-entering all of the WAP, and MMS, settings...ballocks...oh well. Here goes...

If you are going to play with the TyTN like us people on here are (such as testing WM XDA-Live) you will get used to adding the MMS/GPRS settings.
There is a NOTICEABLE improvement in reception from radio version 1.27.00.00 onwards, the version in the HTC-AKU3.3 rom package is 1.34.10.00 so you SHOULD see a slight improvment. Stability is by far the best thing on that ROM.
I highly recommend downloading TCPMP and trying out some .avi files on it as it is the version with the ATi Imageon chip working as desired.
Since upgrading to radio 1.27 (and later to 1.35.00.11) the 3G reception of my TyTN has improved alot, such that i can get 3G reception downstairs where before i only got strong GSM.
Alright, the upgrade went smooth, now I just have to go and add in the MMS, and GPRS settings, so...I'll get around to that a little later.
So I have the latest ROM version, with the latest boot loader. I am a little dissapointed though. Even with the newest Radio version, it still does not pickup a signal as well as my Sony W810i did. Prehaps interference, from the bluetooth, or the Wi-Fi radios. However I don't even have those turned on. Hurm...
The OS runs alot smoother than the previous build. Now I just have to go in and tweak the settings. Everything else though seems to be nice.
About the radio. With my W810i, the signal was very strong, even when in the buildings on my college campus. However the reception from the TyTN, isn't as strong. This might end up being the breaking point...I'll keep testing it out, so we'll see.
As of right now though, I've full integrated my life into this device. I have my comlete daily schedule planned in with classes, meetings, ect. Today in class, rather than taking notes I was able to logon to the website, and download the powerpoint presentation that was being used, and used that for my notes. Gotta love having a campus that is 100% Wi-Fi.
Thanks for the help with the upgrade. I'm glad you stepped in otherwise I would have turned around and sold it, even though I've very happy with my TyTN, everything but the Radio problem though...
uh, "Latest" Boot Loader? You mean you put 1.09 on the phone? or are you talking about the RADIO bootloader? That you now have 0108?
If you put 1.09 on the phone you'll want to, IMHO, read about how to DOWNGRADE to Oli's 1.10.oli or 1.01MFG or 1.04 if you really want...
You should be able to do it with SSPL, but, I'd suggest you READ CAREFULLY this time.
Yeah its 1.09.
I'll take a look into what you just mentioned, and read up on it, now that I'm more familiar, and a little more secure with this. I was kind of worried, about flashing the rom, after reading alot of the "be careful...", or "at your own risk". So...
Obviously I will procceed with caution...
Any other pointed, tips would be appreciated. Thanks as always!
I've extracted the radio ROM from latest Dopod chinese ROM and packaged here as a standalone NBH radio upgrade:
HERM_RADIO_1.38.00.10_Only_SSPL.rarThis radio has HTC_BOOT 0108 and no GPS enabled.
Keep in mind that the safest procedure to upgrade your radio right now is:
Flash Hard-SPL v1.10.Oli on your phone
Flash the desired radio upgrade using the RUU package
Both steps have to be done with phone connected to computer through USB cable and activesync enabled, Des SSPL will be pushed into your phone when the RUU starts.
Remember that when flashing a radio only you don't need to hard-reset your phone, so no data will be lost.
Note: Same radio GPS enabled (from trinity) is available here
Enjoy!
Thanks pof!
Flashing now...
EDIT- Flashed 100% ok, now using with full network reception.
Will post again if there's any probs.
is it have problems when i flash this radio to my x10HT?
no, there is nothing at all special about the x10HT folks...
personally, I recommend everyone uses this one instead of the trinity radio simply because we can't have GPS anyway and for the power you're wasting on non-working chip, it's pointless.
just wanted to say thanks. i had the newest trinity rom installed earlier and this has better battery life.
thanks a lot pof
I think I'll give this one a try... Thanks!
Given my device is SuperCID, does it make sense to apply the Hard-SPL still?
I have HERM_RADIO_1.38.00.11 but I install this new radio because the previous one spent the battery to me very fast.
moving over to this, no point having the gps enabled deal!
Completely agree, until we can get the GPS on the hermes working (which is unlikely due to bricking risk) there really is no need for us to have the GPS rom from the trin.
pof! thanks man I also had the gps 11 version and i figured why not go with the 10 version as well since we wont get GPS anytime soon, i will test for a few days and report back...
Removed the Trinity 1.38 radio very quickly but initial impressions of this native Hermes ROM are far more favourable.
Not had it installed long enough to get an impression of battery life yet but reception and stability seem good so far.

About to flash, but ...
Sorry for off-topic - just curios if anyone is flashing from within VMware.

I was going to update my Cingular 8525 to WM6 and in preparation for it flashed it with the latest OLIPRO V6. I got COLD FEET and instead decided to try upgrading to the HTC RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2_1_[1].06.502.3_6275_1.33.31.00_108_Ship.exe
Apparently the OLIPRO V6 has changed it to where I can't upgrade… I get an error (206) when trying to upgrade. I lose my SYNC connection. Doing a master reset didn't do a thing and the OLIPRO V6 is still there when I check it. Can someone PLEASE give me the instructions how to get it back to NORMAL? Yes, I realize NUUBS are a real pain in the butt, but we've got to start somewhere (you were new once, too!!).
Whoever helps, MY THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!
Check the wiki...how to flash is inthere...important however will be what OS you computer is running...i'm sytill a nooob too and i was getting the 260 errors when i tried to flash form Vista...ended up having to use a differentset of drivers...then life was cool.
search for "HERMIMG.NBH"
There are other (better) ways too, but I don't think you're good enough to do it yourself.
I'll give you one hint... Oli 1.40 is based on 1.11. The rom you you're installing is 1.04. But, before you screw around.. Read!
I've flashed other phones to different ROMs and never had any problems. As I said, I installed the Olipro V6 as recommended to insure I wouldn't "BRICK" the phone. The phone works now, BUT I still want to upgrade to the HTC supplied "RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2_1_[1].06.502.3_6275_1.33.31.00_108_Ship.exe” and be done with it. Apparently Olipro won’t allow me to do that!!! So I need to re-install what Olipro V6 REPLACED!

I guess I need to be “spoon fed” whatever it takes to het me back to an ORIGINAL CINGULAR 8525 where I can upgrade to "RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2_1_[1].06.502.3_6275_1.33.31.00_108_Ship.exe” Did I get in over my head? It seems so!!! Not BRICKED, but just want to revert back to the ORIGINAL CINGULAR 8525. PLEASE can I get some help here??? THANK YOU!!!!

I'm so happy you're reading carefully
I'll do this once, if you can't figure it out, then, you're better off finding someone to pay to do it for you!
1) Get CustomRUU
2) Get the Cingular ROM
3) Get WinRAR
4) Extract Cingular ROM
5) Extract CustomRUU
6) Place the .nbh from Cingy ROM and CustomeRUU.exe into ONE directory--alone.
7) Run the CustomRUU.exe file
8) READ THE ****ING DIRECTIONS
That's it.
Oh, and stay away from roms that you don't want to spend the time to understand.
Many THANKS to LegolasTheElf!!! You pulled my bacon out of the fire and saved the day! I DO APPRECIATE IT!!! All is well and these 57 year old eyes are headed off to bed... Lesson Learned!
I have a new (refurb) Cingular 8525. Ihave been doing a lot of reading and research. The amount of information available here, Is damn near intimidating. The first thing I need to do is flash the radio. The shipped version is 1.16.00.00, and the signal strength is terrible. Since everyone here, sends the newbies to Mr Vanx tutorials that is where I started. I flashed to Olipro 2.10. And my bootloader confirms the flash worked. The next step is to flash the radio. But his instructions say to use autodetect. This does not work. So I went to the Olipro post for v7 and he says in his instructions that autodetect will no longer work, force SSL. But later in that thread when this question is asked, the person is told that if he knows that it is 2.10, then check that box and the one that says is it hard SPL. When I try that it warns that it is for version 1.11...etc. I would really appreciate some good advice. Thank you in advance, for reading this far.

The conflict is actually that the custom_ruu has been updated to properly auto detect. You can either A) get the new Custom_RUU (and that should work) or B) just select Oli2.10 and check the box for HardSPL and keep going.

Thank you for your prompt reply. And forgive me for questioning your advice. Is the latest radio 1.50 packaged with the latest Custom RUU? I downloaded the one from This Thread in the resources sticky. And it still could not query the device. And if I try the method you suggested it gives me the following warning:
"Please be aware that this flasher is intended solely for SPL 1.11 and you MUST have 1.11 Hard-SPL installed in order to flash any unsigned files."
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
I have flashed my "Wizard" literally (see my signature) hundreds of times. With only a couple of minor errors. I would like to upgrade to WM6, in the very near future. But I paid too much money to brick this sucker!! (Read: My wife would kill me!)
Anyone else have any insight to this? I'm having the same gut wrenching inhibitions about trying out the vp3g rom because of this
"Please be aware that this flasher is intended solely for SPL 1.11 and you MUST have 1.11 Hard-SPL installed in order to flash any unsigned files"
error in the RUU
The RUU from that thread should autodetect, but if it isn't you may have a comm error with your USB. I am 99% sure you can just select and go, but I won't bet your Hermes on it. With HardSPL you are virtually brick-proof. If you use force SSPL, you will bypass HardSPL. I would do the following:
1. While NOT connected to USB, put the phone in bootloader mode
2. Connect the phone to the USB (this will prevent ActiveSync from hogging the port).
3. Start the RUU
4. Manually select Olipro 2.1
5. Do it.

I wish more people would post like that things would be so much easier to find, Instead we have 3 gazillion posts that say "Somebody help me please!"
The Hermes Wiki needs to be updated as the old Custom RUU is posted and Olipro new RUU is only available in the thread mentioned above. I discovered this a while back and figured it would be changed by now. Leaving the old RUU on the Wiki is problematic and causes confusion for those not in the know.
My 2 cents..
couldn't agree more.
the wiki is a compilation of a communities contributions... You can update it!!!
I try to correct anything I find!
I'd update if I knew what I was talking about! I don't have the latest version of the RUU, and probably won't for some time. This installation went perfectly for me, I don't see the need to change any time soon! But if anyone else has the info, they should deffinately update the wiki
Thank you very much! It was very helpful. I've met this problem too And now it solved.

Titan bastards? Kind of rough don't you think?
I know he posted something over at PPCGeeks. He put it in the hardspl thread. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=9093
I think he means it affectionately.
Maybe we are Titan Bastards, it seems Sprint and other companies have abandoned this phone, we onlyl have a few here like Olipro, DCD and others who continue to develop this rom and make it awesome, so my thanks to them.
yeah i talked with Olipro letting him know that i packaged it and put it up in that link. Not sure yet if he will redo it and update here or what, but he generally uses those terms for his Hard-SPL users. Like his topic in irc for another device SPL "...Hard-SPL-2.60 is out now ****wits! ..."
Either way his patched SPL is working now and it's currently available, but it may be revised.
He's British right? Reminds me of a movie I just watched "This is England" where he calls one of the kids a "cheeky bastid!". BTW, just tried 2.40 right now, works wonderful.
olipro patched that bootloader fast as hell. nothing we do here would be possible without his help. thank you olipro
I am anything u want me to be OLIPRO !!! for i am a unworthy titan owner who has been blessed by all that U and others do for my less than perfect phone.
AND anyone who takes offense to being a titan bastard, can go get a IPHONE
yeah thanks for the hard work mate.

how has sprint abandoned this phone? we wouldnt even have this new rom and bootloader if the rom sprint has been working on hadnt been leaked (and after using it for 2 days i can see why it hasnt been officially released yet)
im a noob i know i know i shouldnt be doing this unless i have a good understanding which i thought i did but now i am thinking twice. I tried to intall the new unlocker 2.40, i did everything it asked of me and now its stuck in the three color screen and i have no clue how to get out of it nothing is working, Activesync wont connect. someone please help!!!!
I am in the same boat. I got to the boot loader screen no problem, I upgraded to titan_radio_3.27.00.exe no problem. I then ran ROMUpdateUtility.exe from dcd_2.0.0_beta_sprint.exe.
No errors or problems but when i rebooted it hangs onit just hangs at the "HTC smart mobility" screen.
If I tried to replace the dcd_2.0.0_beta_sprint.nbh with another .nbh could that save me?
I am able to get to the boot loader screen and have USB, but on warm or cold boot it just hangs at the "HTC smart mobility" screen.
Seems if i have boot loader access, i am not hosed.
I did run the latest unlocker Hard-SPL-MFG(2).exe
the new radio/spl is not compatible with the older roms. Something in the XIP has changed and if not present your device will hang.
are you aware of a solution?
you guys are having problems cause you did not run titanrelocker before flashing the ne stuff, or if you ran it you did it wrong.
it is imperative that you run the bat file inside of titanrelocker folder as opposed to running ruu.exe file.
for you to do that now that you are stuck ya gotta boot to bootloader mode , flash a older rom then activesynce and relock the phone the right way.
I just want to point out the fact that this is about the 4th question of the exact same nature i have answered today. I had none of these problems because i READ before i installed. none of what ive said here is news as it WAS ALL MENTIONED IN THE FIRST POST OF KMARTBURRITO'S THREAD
the moral of the story: dont friggin mess with anything if you cant be assed to read the first post of the thread of the rom you're flashing.
have a nice day
Thanks, i appreciate your comments and i thought i was understanding this.
Can you recommend a older ROM and DL location?
Also just to be sure, to re flash i would just switch the current .nbh for the older one. Correct?
As a linux admin i understand noobs on the forum. I am trying to learn I am sorry for the inconvenience. I only posted cause i am desperate and failed trying to fix on my own.

I didn't use a relocker and I'm up and running fine. So I don't think your comments work for everyone.

Quite possible as I don't always understand British humor.

maybe not now. they may have changed the new hard spl to accomodate that issue. it was a required step yesterday though

I flashed my phone awhile ago. So it was before any new hard spl.
Anybody that can upload it here or link it to here, from somewhere other than ppcgeeks? There site is down, and I'm sitting here ready to re-up the SPL to try the new dcd rom, since his 1.6.10 keeps not waking up for phone calls and SMS.
