Hi,
Please help me, as its very urgent. I have been upgrading to various ROM's every now and then. Recently I did a blunder, as While upgrading with One of the ROM (Black Majik) i selected SPL 2.10 instead of Force SSPL and while upgrading USB Connection get lost.
Now I am only getting the Splash Screen showing HTC, when i Hard Reset my phone I do not get IPL and SPL version displayed and it takes my to the Splash Screen again.
Please help me in finding a way i can recover my phone.
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Try a hard reset...
If that doesn't work and you have Hard SPL on your phone upgrade using the sd card method.
As for your IPL and SPL, what do you see when you go to bootloader? That shows your IPL & SPL. To get to bootloader press power, OK button next to flywheel and soft reset with stylus. Hold all three buttons until you get to tri-colour screen. That will tell you what IPL & Spl you have.
Cheers...
Thanx for help. I could get my IPL and SPL info. But still i am not been able to get any rom installed on my device as it get stuck on that tri-color screen and rom up gradation wizards comes with different rom looks for activesync connection with the device. I am not been able to boot my device so that i can upgrade it to specific rom. Is there any way i can install a ROM without having active sync connection with the device...
Pl.. Pl.. Pl.. help. I would be greatfull to you
IF you have flashed Hard SPL on your phone you have a good Chance...
If you haven't and its under warranty you might be able to get them to fix for you.
Assuming you have Hard SPLed your phone, try the sd card method - format up to 2gb sd card fat32. copy the .nbh file from the rom upgrade to the sd card.Rename the .nbh file to "hermimg.nbh". Reset phone. As you keep going into bootloader you wont have to manually do that. It should recognize the os flash and prompt you to hit the power button to proceed...
PLEASE NOTE - THIS WILL ONLY WORK IF YOUR SPL IS 2.10 OLIPRO...
Hope you upgraded your SPL cos you will only have a paper weight otherwise..
Best of luck. Cheers...

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.

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
Hello,
I would like to upgrate Rom with this one: Schaps_WM6Pro_Hermes_4.31_WWE_Full.exe
I installed Hard-SPL and now I have 2.10.olipro SPL version displayed in the bootloader (before I had 1.4).
Actually, in my Hermes300 I have installed :
WM6.0
ROM: 2.54.258.2
ROM date: 07/06/07 (DD/MM/YY)
RADIO: 1.47.00.10
Protocol: 32.80.7020.20H
ExtROM: 3.54.258.102
I don't know if it is the original ROM upgrade from HTC website, because I'm not the firt owner of the phone.
Anyway, If I try to upgrade it by using autodetect mode an error occurs:"Error, Unknown version! You should pick safe SSPL".
Why? What Do I have to do to have Upgrade? Maybe, is there still some kinda of "brand"? Which option should I have to select?
I want to use the most safe upgrading procedure to avoid brick.
P.s. I'm using Windows Xp.
Thanks!!
Pick safe SSPL..... Follow the instructions after OR use the sd card method.
Format sd card fat32 then copy the .nbh file onto it. Rename it to "Hermimg.nbh". Put it in phone and reset to bootloader. Hold down power button, ok button above flywheel and reset with stylus. Hold all buttons in until you get to tri-colour screen. It should recognize the flash image so then follow the prompts.
Find this safer than pc flash.
Cheers......
Thank you very much I will do it!
But I'd like to understand why autodetect mode doesn't work! Do u hava any ideas? Cannot I choose SPL-2.02./2.10/2.30 New Bootloader and is it HARD-SPL choices? I'm a newbie in upgrading and I only understand that to avoi brick I should use HARD-SPL. If I use Force safe SSPL or SD card method can I have a brick?
How about if autodetect doesn't work because I have installed original ROM upgrade from HTC? It is possible?
Thanks.
No flashing method is a guarantee of success. Hard SPL isn't either, it just makes it easier or even possible to fix your phone. If you interrupt a flash you will brick your phone but with Hard SPL its possible to fix. Except if you interrupt the radio rom portion of the flash. I think its OK to say that if you stuff up this part of the flash you won't be able to fix easily, if at all.
Most, if not all, cooked roms DON'T have a radio rom inside. ALL stock roms do.
This is why I said its safer with sd card method. You would have to physically reset the hermes in the middle of a flash to stuff it. With the pc, usb cables can be unplugged, reset buttons can be pushed and blackouts/brownouts do occur. Thats if Activesync doesn't throw a hissy fit and disconnect while trying to update....
>HARD-SPL just makes it easier or even possible to fix your phone.
Ok, and by using SD CARD procedure is it the same?
I mean...now with HARD-SPL installed on hermes can I use every upgrading procedure to fix my phone (if possible)? Or to take advantage from that do I have to use a particular procedure?
Before writing here I read a post where another guy had my same problem and some people answered him to choose SPL-2.02./2.10/2.30 New Bootloader and is it HARD-SPL. But u think is better by SD CARD.... .
Thanks, and I'm sorry for many questions!
Does Schaps_WM6Pro_Hermes_4.31_WWE_Full.exe have a radio rom inside? I can upgrade only Rom without RADIO? If yes...how?
Thank you very much!
No, Schaps_WM6Pro_Hermes_4.31_WWE_Full doesn't have a radio rom. Look at the list of apps and tweaks included. It will tell you what radio version it has if it has the radio portion included...( this is for ANY cooked rom. The chefs work hard to make these and are rightly proud of their work.)
Here are the instructions for sd card flash again if you missed the first time
1). Format sd card fat32 then copy the .nbh file onto it. Rename it to "Hermimg.nbh".
2). Put it in phone and reset to bootloader - Hold down power button, ok button above flywheel and reset with stylus. Hold all buttons in until you get to tri-colour screen. It should recognize the flash image so then follow the prompts.
Its that easy when you have Hard SPL on your phone...
Cheera...
It worked very well. Thank u very much!
Sow if you don't have Hard Spl on your phone the SD flash method won't work? I have a spv m700 and coun't manage to install hard-spl.
Go to the last few pages of the Hard SPL thread - its a sticky - You'll find out how to install Hard SPL using the sd card method. Don't have to worry about sync errors with the PC then...
Cheers...
I have got Hard-SPL 2.60. Which one should I pick in the SPL Meny? I'm kinda noobish when it comes to this ...
I hope someone can help me , i ve tried a lot of roms, and i cant upgrade it, i also tried the sd flash , but it got stuck on the boot screen , could someone please help me, what should i do?
My Htc hermes phone keep turning off and on after i upgraded it to rom 3.54.07.06. that i downloaded from a thread on this site. I did the Power+OK+softrest and got the 3 color screen its shows IPL 1.01 and SPL 1.40 Oilpro . and connected to my computer but my computer isnt snycing withmy phone or anything plz help me T~T
Welcome to XDA-developers.
The Hermes has a wonderful Wiki page for unbricking a device:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
You can also try to flash from the SD Card:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing
Though I'd try to upgrade the SPL(1.40) to Hard SPL V7 (2.10) first.
Try connecting the Hermes to the pc after 1st making sure to untick "Allow USB connections" in activesync, put the Hermes in bootloader and run the RUU_Wrapper.exe for Hard SPL V7. After this you should be able to use the sd card method to flash your Hermes with any rom. You used an early Hard SPL that is unsafe to try sd card flashing with... Live and learn...
Thanks very much your a life saver
i did it too
dear
yesterday i flash my hermes with hardspl v7
i get
HERM100
ipl 1.04
spl 2.10olipro
but i can"t flash original rom from sd card it only stuck at 0%
i try to unbrick my hermes because i get no radio and no gsm missing protocol and missing my imei
what kind of solution for me????
please help
SD card flash....
1. Format 2Gb or less card FAT32. Copy .nbh file onto it and rename hermimg.nbh.
2. Insert sd card into Hermes and reset to bootloader.
3. Follow prompts...
If you are using the unaltered ROM, the radio part may take awhile to flash - DON'T RESET... This may cause irrecoverable errors in the radio rom causing you to have a permanent brick...
Cheers...
This may not work, that means you're looking at a permanent brick. You may be able to flash an OS only rom on but you won't be able to use the phone anymore.
When i tried to install any firmware the progress stop at 11% and the Hermes only turn on in bootmode, any idea??

I had that problem and few more with my Hermes.
While it didn't help me, this suggestion by ultramag69 may help you...
Use the sd card method to flash a new rom, instead of a USB cable/Windows computer.
1. Format a 2Gb or less sd card to FAT32, copy the large 50MB-90MB .nbh file onto it and rename to hermimg.nbh
2. Insert the card into your Hermes and reset to bootloader (hold OK & POWER and push RESET for a sec with the stylus)
3. If you haven't stuffed up the other steps, follow the prompts.
Hope this helps!
Just one other thing summoner, make sure you have Hard SPL V7 installed. Otherwise the ONLY rom I'd try flashing like that is the SHIPPED STOCK ROM. Its so the CID will be recognised and won't cause a brick.
rmorera84, unless you've installed Hard SPL V7 then find the SHIPPED STOCK ROM and flash that, anything else may permanently brick your Hermes.
If you have Hard SPL V7 (IPL 1.04, SPL 2.10 oli) then flash what you like...
Cheers...
- Installed latested Orange rom, that I know of - SPV_M3100_ROMUpdate_1007
- installed Hard SPL 7 & applied SIM unlock/super CID
- re-installed TNT TNT.19199_Professional_Hermes
The result is:
IPL-1.01
SPL-1.40.Olipro
I suppose I should upgrading the radio rom now!?
I am told don't try fixing what isn't broken - and it is working. 3G iNet, Phone, WiFi, BT - all good atm.
Or is there a particular update I should still install?
Thanks!
SUMM0NER, you're using an older, not so safe version of Hard SPL. The Hermes is downgraded to SPL 1.40 when you sim/CID unlock your phone. Best idea would be to re-install Hard SPL V7. Its a later version that seems less prone to problems when flashing.
Go back to the Hard SPL thread and get Hard SPL V7. I had the same thing happen to me when I unlocked the Hermes, nearly cost me my handset.
The steps are unlock Hermes, Install Hard SPL then upgrade OS.
Cheers...
Do I need to re-apply the OS rom file?
I just reinstalled Hard SPL7, now shows as IPL-104, SPL-2.10.Olipro.
Thanks!
My hermes only work whit this rom:Schaps_WM6Pro_ESN_3.54b-0808_Full
Because whit any other rom they stuck at 11%.
This is the info or the phone:
IPL-1.01
Spl-1.40.Olipro
Whit the first rom the htc boot but the phone funtion don´t work.
rmorera84, refer to my last post.
SUMM0NER, no. You have loaded the os, the reason you put Hard SPL V7 is if you want to upgrade the radio rom (not a good idea unless you are experiencing problems) or wish to change the os. Just means recovery is easier than if you didn't have it.
Cheers...
Many thanks ultramag69.
rmorera84 what branding is your Hermes (ie: Orange M3100, T-Mobile Vario 2, Vodeaphone V1605 etc...)?
Can I assume your Hermes is working right now?
If it is download and install HardSPL V.7 (attached to the bottom of the first post!)
Ones done verify that it installed correctly by holding the OK & Power button and pushing reset for a sec. The screen should display the coloured bars and say towards the centre: SPL-2.10.Olipro
It´s Cingular 8525, i could install the HardSPL V.7, now what rom i can flash??
You didn't confirm if it is working right now!?
If it is not working, try one of the official WM5 Cingular roms from this list. If that worked apply HardSPL 7 and take it from there.
Ones you downloaded the Cingular rom update you will have to keep unpacking the .exe files until you come to the actual .NBH file (WinRAR works for me).
Then follow ultramag69's instructions on flashing the rom via memory card.
Works, now i have this info:
HERM100
IPL-1.04
HERM100
SPL-2.10.Olipro
I download the official Cingular WM5 rom, but. i don´t know how install this rom by memory card, could you help me??
Excellent!
Try downgrading to the Cingular rom via USB. Just double click the EXE and follow the instructions.
To use the memory card method follow these steps...
0. unpack the .exe file containing the rom with Winrar (right-click exe then choose "Extract to...\")
1. Format a 2Gb or less sd card to FAT32, copy the large 50MB-90MB .nbh file onto it and rename to hermimg.nbh
2. Insert the card into your Hermes and reset to bootloader (hold OK & POWER and push RESET for a sec with the stylus)
3. If you haven't stuffed up the other steps, follow the prompts.
The reason to use the memory card to upgrade a rom, rather than a usb cable, is to cut down on failed upgrades (dodgy Windows/usb port/usb cable/etc..).
All working? Try upgrading to a Hermes rom that didn't work previously.
Any rom you can find in the Hermes section. Go to the WM06 part of the forum, theres a sticky at the top with about 50 older roms and you'll find other roms there too (latest is wm6.5).
Cheers...
i install the official WM5 AT-T version the WM6 AT-T, but, i still whit the no-gsm problem, can i flash i radio? or what i can do??
You may not be able to fix this, if you know what the original SHIPPED STOCK ROM was and can find it, then flash that. It may not work, if it gets stuck at 11% - 17% mark it means the radio ROM is stuffed and the memory area is corrupted. Not fixable.
You could also try, if you know what it is, the original radio rom by itself. Again, if you can't get it to work, you have a PDA but won't work as a phone ever again. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Im to having the same problem, it keeps going back to the 2.1.Olipro boot loader.
I tried the memory card option and it starts to install but then stops.
Does anyone have and sugestions?
Cheers

Hi, I got my Hermes 8525 in boot mode what i did is to install this Schaps_WM6Pro_WWE_4.00_Full.exe now my hermes is working but i want to unlock it..what can I do cos everytime i try got in to boot mode again..any help tks.,..
Hi guys
before, my htc tytn had a problem, it not recognize the gsm sim and no IMEI showed on informations of the PDA.
I supposed that it was a problem of radio rom, and I followed the instructions given on (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665) to unlock and update my radio rom, unfortunately, after the operation began the spl1.60 was downgraded to 1.40.Olipro but can't progress in flashing, the htc hermes SIM CID Unlocker 3.12.3.7 has encountered an 262 (update error), a recovery operation was guided but no result, from this error my htc still showing the three colours screen like below:
HERM200
IPL-1.01
HERM200
SPL-1.40.Olipro
please help me to restore my phone, there is indispensable for my job to get e-mails
thanks
If you're using XP then update .net framework to 3.5.
Go to activesync settings on pc and untick "Allow USB connection".
Reconnect Hermes to PC, go to bootloader (you need to reset to bootloader, true bootloader, not bricked bootloader). Run RUU_Wrapper.exe again. Should get you out of tricolour screen.
When you finish unlocking the Hermes install Hard SPL V7, go to post 1160, page 116 of this thread for sd card method - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Cheers...
???
Thank you for your response but what do you mean by (you need to reset to bootloader, true bootloader, not bricked bootloader).
At the moment you can read the IPL and SPL on your screen, 3 coloured bands running down the screen. This is NOT true bootloader. You need to hold power, ok button above flywheel and reset with the stylus to go to real bootloader. Looks the same but is real and not a cocked up version.
Cheers...
Yes, but when I am doing this, the same screen become to me, with :
HERM200
IPL-1.01
HERM200
SPL-1.40.Olipro
I suppose that the real bootloader was replaced by the second one from Olipro.
regards.
No, the info you give is right, you upgraded the SPL to 1.40. However, just doing a reset with stylus may bring you to that screen but there may be a fundamental difference in how it flashes the SPL again. You need to do the bootloader reset to make sure that there will be no problems upgrading or you may end up with an unrecoverable brick. It may be fine to use the "bootloader" screen you get with a reset, but its your Hermes you will loose if something goes kaka.... And withot Hard SPL V7, you may not be able to recover it...
Cheers...
