hi all,
yesterday I tried an update to windows mobile 2003 on my t-mobile mda I (a "not for sale - for testing only" version I got from anywhere).
After the upgrade I made some tests and saw, that there are some functions not running in this "test version". So I did a downgrade to 3.19.03GER with no problems. But after this downgrade I wasn´t able to use the telephon in my mda I. All tries to start the telephon or a resync via usb or ird hang up the mda and need a warm start. :?:
The radio version on my mda is 3.23.00.
How can I reactivate the telephon and resync function in my mda? Thanks for all ideas!
Or must I send my mda to t-mobile?
regards
manfred
hi guys,
thank´s for this great side!
I found the original update to windows mobile 2003 on http://www.mathiaspohl.de/mda, put it on my MMC-card with OSImageTool1.5 and into my MDA with the Wallaby Bootloader Menu (very easy).
After this I had the version 4.00.33 GER in my MDA with still no telephony . So I made again the radio update to 3.23.00... nothing. But after some tests in the Wallaby Bootloader Menu (GSM Tools) all works fine.

Hi,
I did the popular mistake, tried to unlock with Universal Unlocker , thinking that this is the staff to unlock all the HTC phones.
Ok. What I have now:
NO GSM - we know that
Tried to install radio roms from here, nothing. I got the information about "Checking the information...." and it is hanging like this.
I made reser and HARD RESET aswell.
I tried to install a lot. Nothing helped.
I had radio ver. 1.05.... I remember that. I have my phone from T-Mobile from UK. I had everything nice, now I have four stripes - RED GREEN BLUE and WHITE and ther is written:
HERM300
IPL-1.01
HERM300
SPL-1.04
Can anybody help me ? I tried to download mtty.exe and put all the commands (not PASTE and it still not working.
Now is 6am in Lisbon. I was sitting all that night and I am finishing writting this post.
Help if you can, regards.

Have a look on this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280733
It did not help. Where I can get this Qtek rom ? Is that OK for my device ? I have VARIO II from T-Mobile.
I woul like to try instal this - DUMPED English ROM from TMobile Vario II from here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_DumpedRoms
but i dont now how. There are 3 .raw files, how to put them to my phone ?
That solution didnt help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280733
What else I can do ? I was trying with QTEK rom and a got white screen on the phone and 0% on the computer. It was hanging. I tried 5 times. Then I tried to install the Radio Rom from here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
I choosed all of them. Nothing. All of them are hanging on:
Chencking the information on your device... Please wait..
Then there is a screen to update. After long time. So when I press the button is still the same info. Checking the information on your device... Please wait..
And its hanging. When I reset to bootloader again the soft telling me:
This ROM Upgrade Utility does not design for your device.
Please get probper ROM Upgrade Utility and try again!
Where can I get the radio version 1.05 for T-Mobile Vario II ???????????
Is there possibility to download from somewhere ?
Or maybe I should try other solution ?
Read "problem 5" here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems
Yes, I was tying point 5 few times. The problem is, I can connect through mtty.exe without any problems, but after soft reset, I am pressing POWER and OK button and going to bootloader mode again, and when I am trying to flash the extracted radio ROM (i tried all of them = 4) and there is a problem. nothing is working. I am waiting and waiting, and there is only info: Checking your device information or something like that. What can I do ? Sorry for my English guys.
Instead of flashing an extracted radio image try to flash a normal shipped rom (if possible matching your cid). Capture the process using usb monitor to see where exactly it fails and which error you get.
Where can I download

No rom matching your cid is available then, use the TyTN 1.18 rom.

I tried that ROM 2 times, once I plugged with holding camera button and second time without. I made monitor of QTEK rom aswell, because its the one which is changing phone screen from red green blue stripes to completly white. But nothing else is doin...
A attaching logs in zip file below. I have 3 files from each session, I dont know which are correct, 2 of them i saved and 1 is exported.
What do you think ?
I used USB-monitor from http://www.hhdsoftware.com/
very weird... usb seems not working but for what you say bootloader seems to be ok. Are you sure this was after patching the radio with universal unlocker? it seems totally a different problem :-$
I guess you'll have to wait until t-mob releases a ROM matching your CID and then flash it using the hermimg.nbh sd-card flashing method.
You can also try to connect to it via serial, I have no experience on that, but a search on these forums might tell you how...
keep us updated
How long I have to wait ?
Should I go to T-Mobile when I will be back to Scotland and tell them what I did or what ? Did I lose my warranty ? Do you know approximately how much they will charge me for flashing my phone ?
Do I really have no chances to repair it by myself ?

Until t-mobile releases a rom with your cid... it can be today or next year, I don't know.

I don't think you lost the warranty. They usually charge about 100 eur for flashing it back in the service centre. They do it by inserting a diagnostics sd card, but we don't have it for the Hermes

You can try flashing over serial port, and you can try sd-card flashing, but for sd-card flashing you need a rom matching your CID first.
Eureka!!!
Finally I made my device working again!
And I dont have simlock !
After trying everything.... ufffff.
THX !!!!!!
1) I downloaded ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v1.zip
2) Reset my phone in bootloader mode.
3) Plug USB cable.
4) Run HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v1.
5) After 20 min. my phone said ELO to meeeee He did not have simlock when was saying that.
YE YE YE
That was simple. If you have any Hermes radio problem, try that first - HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v1.
Will be more often here, forum seems to be really interesting.
YO!
Yipie
Glad it worked
Hello friends,
I have a problem concerning the upgrade of my ROM on a MDA II with Mobile 5. When I connect the MDA (is shown as connected in Mobile Device Center) and start the "start_uspl.exe" everything is working fine. But in the next steps, when the ROM should be installed I always get the following issue:
ERROR [260]: Update Error --> But everything is plugged in correctly?
Can you send me a link to a ROM for the MDA II, so that I can install it all correctly without any failures?
Thank you for your support.
Best Regards,
Pepsi the only way I like it.;-)
MDA II >>IS NOT<< Charmer. Try MDA II section of forums.
BTW, talking about Mobile Device Center - read about Vista specific flashing, it's not the same as in XP!!! XP procedures will always fail...

I think the RomUpgradeUt.exe that exists in the wm5 ROMs is not compatible with SPL 2.03.
try this:
Extract the .nbh file from your desired wm5 rom (Rename your ROM from *.exe to *.zip and extract it using winzip).
Flash it to your device using RUUwrapper.exe (Force using SSPL).
:,-(
Hey together again,
now i've made the update.
It shows no error or something other.
The MDA looks like a WM5 device - But it will stop booting when it shows the first WM5-Picture.
Ok...now it will stop when it shows the "T-Mobile" Splash Screen..
Well....one Softreset later .... i have a white Screen
This i have already done:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems
The SPL is 2.03 again.....
Now I can't go on with the RUUWrapper ......
Is there any posibility to Update the MDA while staying in the Bootloader (works without problems).
Thank You Again

Hello Again,
i've tried to perform the update this way.....but it won't work :-(
I insert the SD-Card, load the Bootloader, after this, the Display show's:
"Loading...."
After this:
"Checking..."
And for a Short time
"00028002
Not Allowed"
Then I'm in the RGB-Colored Bootloader......
Any Idea? I've tried the WM6-File from the T-Mobile Page, the WM5-File....
No of them will work.
Thanks again!!!!
Have a look through this...

might be of use, havent had a change to read it fully so it might not be any help.

Hello,
i've read the manual.
But it won't help me.

"Connect the device up to activesync using the USB cable, then run RUUWrapper.exe"
My Problem: Windows Mobile 5 or 6 doesn't Boot - So i can't use the RUUWrapper....
To enter the "special" BootLoader I need an working WM5 or WM6....
Do you know, what I mean? My english isn't the best.. sorry :-/
@koorosh_bsboys
- I DON'T have the "NO GSM" Error.
- My OS does not Work.
- The device looks like it's a Windows Mobile 5 (i can't see more, because it doesn't boot | It will stay at the blue Screen ("Windows Mobile" and the Windows Logo)).
- Update per SD-Card brings the following Situation:
I insert the SD-Card, load the Bootloader, after this, the Display show's:
"Loading...."
After this:
"Checking..."
And for a Short time
"00028002

Sorry to tell you that dude!
But welcome to the club of bricked hermeses with spl 2.03.
Until now there is no known sulotion to fix that, unless you want to send ur device to service center!
OK...that's very ****, but i can't change this.. *damn* :-(
I have one more MDA Vario II with WM6, SPL2.03 and IPL 1.01
=> WORKING....
But i think i'll unlock this one by the "T-Mobile-Sim-Unlock-Code".
I won't risk the second mda ;-)
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Why Flashing...?
Go to any vodafone store..make your device back to WM6..
say to the guy @ vodafone store that your going on a holiday.. they will give you a key that unlocks the device..
and your done ! ! ! Works for a friend of mine

And the next Problem is, that de MDA doesn't boot the OS and have the "no gsm" error....
Hi,
I have MDA Vario II, aka Herm300, aka Tytn ... My problem is that I've got "No GSM". So I got in forum and checked how to try to Fix it threads... So I tried by putting "Hard-SPL" and also I've tried to Upgrade "Radio", but every time when I start upgrade I recieve "Error 262" at 0%, I changed several Radio's but I had always same result. Also I've tried to downgrade to Official Rom of WM5 and it stops at 13% witn "Error 262" . So my Question is:
Is it possible that I have hardware problem not radio problem .
ATM it works fine with Schap's ROM as PDA and "No Gsm" Again ...
On Bootloader I got:
IPL-1.01
SPL-1.40.Olipro
If there is another solution that may help I'm open for advice.
classic brick...
wich one is the 262 error. (why to put the error number? write the entirely error!)
Dunno if it is brick, because I cant update with most of the roms and also I get error with every radio I try to update with ... I've tried with more than 10 radio's from the archive ...
P.S. I think it is Hardware problem + I got brick and because of the hardware problem i cant reinstal rom+radio or rom to repair brick problem ...
So wich one is the error??????
error 206 207 200768 i dont know...i have this issues too and the cprog.exe seems to be incompatible ... my cable hasnt a good contact to the usb plus the rom i had i didnt downgrade to wmoriginal in a few times...
