Hi All,
I need some help please. I am trying to help a friend who set a password on his Niki and then lost the password (or it seems that it just does not take the password that he thinks he set). When I switch on the phone, it brings up a number pad to enter the password but I don't know the password and the one he gave me does not work.
I tried a hard reset but it does not clear the password.
I tried to flash a new ROM but it fails because I need to flash uSPL or hard SPL first. The problem is, to flash uSPL I need to copy SSPL onto the phone and run it which I can't do without the password.
How can I solve this problem and flash the phone to get rid of the password? Is there a uSPL for the Niki which does not require the SSPL to have been run on the phone?
Thanks for the help!
Shut down the phone, press and hold green (call) and red (hangup) buttons, then press power while holding them, you'll be prompted to hard reset the device (this will erase all his data from the phone), press green key again and it should delete it all, including the password.
Thanx a lot!
He told me the manual said to press the green and red buttons and then use the stylus to press the reset button next to the USB which I tried to no avail but your instructions worked.

Does anyone know how to unbrick a HERM200 (TyTN) device?
After installing some programs i wanted to install Resco Explorer and then suddenly my device disconnected from my laptop i thought no big deal but the whole touchscreen is numb also none of the buttons on the TyTN are working. When i reboot the device i get the PIN screen i can enter the code also but is stays there and sometimes it skip's the PIN screen and goes directly to the Today screen but still the touchscreen and buttons are numb no response at all.
I can get in to boatloader by pressing left OK + power + reset.
But if i want to "re-flash" my device i goes into a reboot a the time de program is verifing my PDA.
Does anyone know what to do here?
OS = Black 2.5
Radio = 1.41.00.10
SPL = HardSPLv6 1.40 Olipro
Recently installed programs at the time of bricking the device are:
VITO Remote 4.1
VITO SoundExplorer
VITO Oscilloscope
then tried to install Resco Explorer 2005 and that was were the **** has hit the fan.
I would try a hard reset. If that doesn't help there is a sticky thread at the top of this section that is all about bricked devices (yours isn't really bricked, you are just having issues) that you can read through. Since you just installed Black 2.5 that thread would be the best place to discuss your issue.
Thanks
Thanks for the tip JasenR
How do i Hard Reset my device btw?
Nevermind i should read the wiki more often
Hard reset: Press and hold the Left SOFT KEY and Right SOFT KEY, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the bottom of your device. You will be presented with a menu saying 'press R to reset, X to exit', if you press R Your device will be set back to factory default settings.
(The L/R soft keys are the "--" keys just up the start and OK buttons)
Now hope it works for me.
Thanx anyway JasenR
I had wm6 on it, prophet touch 4.0.0.6 and i tried now to install IX version, and after first install i made reboot and doesn't start anymore (. It's stucked in HTC Prophet Touch from beginning, and is showing in left corner ILP SPL..etc...in bootloader i can't enter (doesn't appear anymore). what should I do? It's a G4
Did you TRY to enter bootloader yourself??? I haven't quite understood your post. In case you didn't:
Press Camera + Soft Reset, then release soft reset and keep pressing camera button till bootloader appears.
yes i tried that. I've pressed camera+soft reset and holding camera..and nothing happened.
yes i tried that. I've pressed camera+soft reset and holding camera..and nothing happened.
solved. it was from my SD card. i've get it off and now is working: entering bootloader, installing ROM. thx anyway.

i installed a new rings rom. it worked fine, then my phone froze up, now it won load pass the opening page. it just says analyzing device component..... and its frozen there. please help, i run my company thru my phone and its very important...
what type of phone do you have? if its a G1 as i have then its easy to un-brick or un-lock...just plug your phone to your PC and format your sdcard again which will erase all of its data then ya good to go or you can remove the battery place it back then hold down your home plus power button at the same time till youir phone boots to the next screen then press alt+L then altW then reboot your phone and sign back in...
if this is a post about the g1 take it to the other forum because this is about the hermes
its a herm 100. htc 8525
have you tried to do a hard reset? If not give that a try.
I hope you installed Hard SPL V3 on it first... to check - hold power, OK button above the flywheel and reset with stylus, hold in until the tri-colour screen appears. Will show IPL - 1.04 and SPL - 2.10oli (if you've installed hard SPL V7).
If so, and you tried to Hard Reset 1st with no success, try the sd card method. If thats not working, on the pc, if using XP, go to activesync's connection settings and untick "Allow USB Connections". Connect your Hermes to the pc with usb after going to bootloader. Run the RUU_Wrapper.exe file again. This should re-install the rom.
You're gonna have a heap of trouble if you haven't Hard SPLed your Hermes.
Good Luck....
I dont have hard spl v3 on my phone. when i try to load another rom or anything i get error 270 the image file is corrupted. please check your update utility. what does that mean? and how can i work thru that?

HELP ME
Dont worry buddy.. u r at right place to get saved out.
I am a newbie but still can suggest u to do a hard reset to restore your HTC in factory condition.
To hard reset
1. Pull out the stylus.
2. With the device turned on, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER buttons, then press the RESET button with the stylus tip.
3. Release the RESET button, but continue pressing the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER buttons until you see this message on the screen:
4. Release the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER buttons, then press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
It's a little difficult to help you if you don't give out all the necessary info.
What phone model?
GSM or CDMA (if you don't know, you're probably in a lot of trouble)?
What SPL?
What ROM?
Did you flash anything immediately prior to the black-out?
If so, what did you flash?
Again, what exactly did you flash?
Answer the previous question.
