Hi,
I have flash my hermes to wm6.0 using the hard spl menthod.
But now i try to use the dopod 838 pro original wm5.0 rom to downgrade but it won't allow.
so how do i downgrade my 838 pro from wm6.0 with hard spl to wm5 ?
for your info i flash the 838 pro according to Mr. MrVanx's LVSW Upgrade Guide.
thanks for the help.
regards.
Extract the NBH and use CustomRUU to flash it.
If you want a brick-safe downgrade, take only OS, ExtROM & Splashes from your dopod838 rom and create a NBH only with this, then flash it with CustomRUU.
FYI
Just as an FYI this didn't work for me as I had upgraded my bootloader too.
If you are in the same boat do a search for 1.10 OLI boot loader, install that (very quick), then grab your original ROM (from the wiki page)
Good luck,

link to RUUWrapper.exe (CustomRUU by olipro) not working, any other link to download?
This touches on a question that I have seen bounced around a good bit but never fully answered. If we upgrade our device to HardSPL and then to WM6, is it possible to take our device back to stock conditions including the stock SPL as well as the Stock WM5? Ie, is it possible to get the device back to a state where we can simply download the .exe file from HTC's website and run it in order to re-flash the phone?

Hi & welcome!
Ok..understand your problem and this is your first post and maybe you thought, "aah nice forum, He WM6 that looks nice, lets flash it on my device" ..Right simple ah? But..what you forgot..is to backup or read more about flashing..You cant reset it back to the original (what you wanna call it) "firmware"...

Well, this is not EXACTLY correct. Check out THIS LINK for downgrade directions. You will need to get the original ROM from somewhere. It is possible that it is HERE IN THE WIKI. Chances are that one of the files there has the same Radio, IPL & SPL. You will just need to find the OS, if it is not in there. (In fact, based on the specs, it looks like the third from the bottom of the English ones - Vodafone?) To flash, you will need dutty's good nbh tool to unpack the ROM, becuase you will need to do the IPL and SPL separately from the OS and radio. See THIS LINK for that info. If you don't want to get into all the unpacking, you *could* do the SPL downgrade first, then the upgrade, but it is generally good practice to downgrade SPL as a LAST step since you lose the hardspl protection as soon as you do it. Finally, use the google search link in my signature if you need to find anything else. Good luck.

Like Todd said it is possible.
Check out the links in my signature and read alot before actually doing so.....
That is a practice tip
The Mr VanX guide alias HTC Hermes guide has complete steps to do this!
Good Luck
Ok, tell me if i correctly understand..
I found the correct rom, after i have to unpack this rom with dutty's good nbh tool..(i have to remove Ipl & Spl?).
After the unpack i have to pack again the rom without ipl and spl and flash it in my Herm??!!is it correct? And in the end i have to change ipl and spl(is it a down grade?).
Last questions yet,
What i have to verify first that i start all this work on my herm to not brick my Herm?
Thank you to all again for the help that you are giving to me
All the best
I may have made it more complicated. That is the process I use.
Best thing to do is simply follow Mrvanx guides.
First downgrade the OS/Radio using THIS GUIDE
Then downgrade SPL/IPL using THIS GUIDE
That is all - as long as you have HardSPL, it is VERY hard to brick your device. So, do that last.
Is possible to flash only the rom i need following the guide, and leave my device with the current hardspl ipl and spl?
Thank you

Yes. The only reason to remove HardSPL is for warranty. Just for clarification, there is no Hard IPL, only Hard SPL, but I know what you mean.
Basically, 99% of the time most of us flash we are only flashing OS or Radio. SPL and IPL don't change often. Most cooked ROMs are released as OS only.
Ah ok perfect, i'm not interested to the device warranty, because i bought it on ebay from Uk, and there is no warranty on my device, so i can only flash os without ipl and spl..
Thank you very much fo all the help

Hey boy,
sorry for the up, but i have another question(s)
I have downloaded the rom that i need, but it is in .exe extension how can i extract from this .exe the .nbh file that i will decompile with dutty's???
2nd question, it's possible to downgrade radio rom? i put radio 1.51.00.10 in my device,but i didn't like it, because the 1.47 version
that i had was better of 1.51
Thank you for help

No worries.
To unpack the exe, just use winrar and open it up. You will get a RUU_signed.nbh and an RUU. Just use the nbh file with the custom_ruu.
Yes, you can downgrade radio to 1.47 safely. No worries. I tried 1.51 too - didn't work out for me either. back to 1.50 for me.

Personally, if I was you, Hard SPL your Hermes 1st, before flashing a new rom.
It makes life easier if something goes wrong with the flash. You at least have a chance of recovery. You can find the thread at the top of the upgrading section to download Hard SPL V7.
Cheers...
is there a 6.5 rom thats radio and ipl spl free that i can put on my g4 without updating its ipl?

Yes, I have a G4 and have tried Both the CR86 and XDA2 ROMs.
These days nobody is including IPL/SPL in their builds, for just this reason (most of the working Wizards are now G4s, I suspect).
Just cruise the Wizard Mobile 6 boards and read up on each ROM. Try several. Remember to flash back to default ROM between home-cooked ROMs to prevent Extended ROM corruption.
upgrade to 6.0 or 6.5
hi, this is the specs of my phone aku 2.3 IPL 2.28.0001
SPL 2.28.0001
OS 02.25.11
GSM 2.26.10.2
wizard love
i wanna upgrade to one of the new 6.0 or 6.5 beautiful grapic roms but i wanna know how to , and which rom to start from

What do you mean? Like, flash back to the original ROM on the Wizard from like T-Mobile and then flask to the new ROM?
This whole time I've just been flashing from ROM to ROM. How would you know if there's Extended ROM corruption?
I don't do this and nothing bad happend... I'm using softSPL.
Hi! I read the guide, for the locking the SPL for the warranty, but they provide the 1.90 version of spl. But my original SPL version is 1.94. So, my questions are:
Using the 1.90 on the htc that was sold with 1.94, it can make any problems? (for the daily use)
Can I upgrade again at 1.94 for the warranty? If yes, where can I download 1.94 original?
I've read also other posts.... wich ask the same: "How can I backup my original SPL vendor?"
But they havn't any answers. So ok, I'm a noob, but I DON'T find a guide to this... so plz help me about it, link me a guide, 'cause maybe I've searched in a bad way... this is a big forum, and there's a person who know the answer XD
And did you try wiki?

Use the 1.90 spl in the guide, then flash your stock rom. stock roms include spl so the spl will automatically be updated to 1.94 or whatever version of spl your stock rom has. for example the latest official roms 5.XX have spl version 5.XX also.

@alternativ: sure, but I don't find what I really search.. or maybe I did an insufficient search
@alcadeias: really? thanks! There was a missing piece in the puzzle

mhmmm thx a lot, but are you sure? If I don't installa an official SPL I can't install the rom, and if I put the original 1.90 the rom cannot recognize the spl, so, about your answer: re u sure?

yes i am sure. i know you want to be extra careful, so if you need extra reassurance you can ask Da_G or hilaireg. i recommend sending a pm or searching for a thread managed by hilaireg. he is very nice and to me at least he always replied even when i had noob questions . also he is very very tech savvy.
later edit: older versions of spl recognize newer versions. how do u think stock rom users upgraded from 1.9x roms to 5.xx roms. so you should have no problem upgrading from the 1.9 spl in the recovery thread to any newer version of rom (spl).
regards,

It's normal if I upgrade to official HTC ROM, when I recover my data with Sprite Backup, (only) the version of the rom became the old version? But radio and protocol still remaining at the new version... it's only a bad indication or the rom is "switched" on the old rom? (after restore I don't need an hard reset, the phone just have an automatic soft reset)
