Hello friends!!!
i am very much new in this field. i have Orange SPV M3100. i updated its Rom to K's Rom. My WIFI was dead. i read the thread "dead wlan due to erased EEPROM" which helped me out to solve my problem. but during this process, i dont know when, my Herm100 converted to Herm200.
now the problems i am facing are that i cant SOFT RESET my herm using stylus. i want to update Rom using SD card, but as i cant soft reset, so i cant.
i will be very thankful to all u guys for helping me to solve my problem. i am alreadt thankful to XDA_DEVELOPERS.
plz explain in detail.
you can use the power button or take out the battery to reset.
thanks brother, but i thought taking out battery might cause some problem to my Hermes. anyways, i am already using the same method. but the question is
"why my hermes doesnot soft reset when i put the stylus in the reset hole"
what might be the problem?
if your presing and not soft or reset , maybe your reset button its broken or need a resoldering this (internal) for check you need open the htc and check the pins conectors its correctly soldering to pcb, it is in warranty go to your SAT

...something similar happened to me. unfortunately i was not able to fix it myself.
so i sent it to repair. it was repaired under warranty...
interesting is, that they fixed it very quickly without even opening it.
there must be a way to do it... but how...
try to ask itsme from this forums...
maybe there is a way to boot it over eboot and upload new bootloader or talk to it with direct serial cable
good luck
buzz
thanks alot buzz_lightyear
yah smae here i was thinking about buying serial cable,,,,, :roll:
thanks for telling me it did happen to u lol
yeah...
it hapenned to me because i was trying to port W2kSE to XDA2 and i did forget to remove 2.06 bootloader out of the flash file...
as i said, try asking itsme. he knows probably the most here...

Dead XDAII with no screen
I have a situation like that before, goto http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13651
Hope you get to recover your XDAII
hi everybody..
i've got a serious problem..
here's the story..
i was trying to upgrade to the touch v7 by mr. gullum.
after downgrading my prophet to the no vendor id rom, i upgraded my device to the touch v7.
next i tried to hard reset my prophet, realised that i can't do it cuz my camera button is not working.
went to a phone repair shop and fixed the button..the solder was..loose? i mean, the thing was unconnected from the pcb.
fixed it and tried to hard reset again.
black screen of hard reset appeared, but when i released the comm button, it went straight to the white screen showing os ver and ipl, spl ver.
tried to hard reset again and failed, it entered the white screen where we can restore rom dumps..i immediately pressed the comm button and camera button again..and it started formatting the bnfs..thing?
still can't do hard reset, tried to flash the no vendor id again, and this is the problem..i get stuck on 95% and after that it jumps to 100% straight away.
tried to flash gullum's touch v7 but i got the message that no device detected...tried pv 5.0.0.0.5b, pv 4.00.0.6, nanoscopic all with same result...
anyone can help?
oh maybe this will help:
when i tried to flash the no vendor id again, what shows up is this..(see attachment) the from image version is blank..
on the 95% where i get stuck, the progress bar on my device turns red as when it happens on the 80%.
thank you, everybody...

In my experience, what you describe is very normal . The RUU seems to stop at 80% and again at 95%. So far nothing out of the ordinairy.
But after that the device should start up and reconnect with ActiveSync. When it tries to pair choose "connect without setting up your device" (or something like that, I'm translating from dutch). After that, it should be no problem to run Upgrade.bat from the WM6 ROM of your choice.
For more detailed describtion, read the upgrade guide.
try any of this roms (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316062)... maybe you have spl 3.08???
it's not that..
hi there,
it's not that usual mistake people make..i think i've screwed my hardware too..
now, my previous problem was unable to hard reset because my camera button was not working..the solder was loose..
i've soldered it and the problem was after every succesful attempt to flash 'no vendor id' rom, it resets and goes to bootloader screen again (tricolor screen)..
late last nite, i tried to hard reset after succesful flash of 'no vendor id' rom (after it resets and enters the bootloader screen)..i succeeded to get into the black screen of hard reset but when i released the comm button, it went straight into the htc white screen without me being able to press any button at all..
everything went well though, and it went to the 'tap screen to set up your device'..at this point i tried to flash the 'nanoscopic' rom (last rom i use before i messed up this phone)..it went well!
after succesful attempt, i tried to hard reset again (no luck again), but after the htc screen shows up, the nanoscopic splash screen appeared!!!
whew, i thought i had my phone fixed already, but when i did a clear storage, it resets and enters into bootloader screen again! i tried soft reset via software and via manual way, and it enters the bootloader screen everytime!
now, i've fiddled some more and i now realise that just by pressing the comm button and doing soft reset can make me go into the bootloader screen..i'm guessing that the technician at the phone shop soldered wrongly...and now my comm button works as camera button too..
i think he accidentaly soldered some other button too to the comm button and that's why i always get into the htc white screen after i release the comm button in the black screen of hard reset..
i'm going to go back to the shop again after work today, but i'm still confused about the way my device enters bootloader after every reset (hard reset and soft reset)..
a friend gave an opinion that maybe, like in desktop, (there's the bios then there's the operating system), the 'bios' of my device is ****ed up?
any help greatly appreciated!
another possibility
another possibility is that my camera button is always pressed and therefore i need only press comm button and soft reset to get into hard reset screen?
i'm gonna check after work today..

It lookslike something is screwed-up... And I agree with you that the cam-buttonis most likely... Succes anyway

i think your camera button connection is short (always pressed down) if you get to hard reset screen by only pressing the comm manager button.
hmm...
too bad..yesterday the technician was out of tow..think i'll go there again this afternoon after work..
wish me luck..
NVID Success
I've got the camera button fixed, and i've flashed the NVID rom succesfully!
i'm now in the process of flashing the Transformer 1.0 by Cloudyfa..
All the best to me!
it's done!
it's done!!!
it's fixed!!!
HOOORRRRAAAAAYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for everybody who tried to help me!

Hi all
I know that there's millions of threads about this but believe me I've read them all and nothing seems to work for me.
I'm trying to upload a new room in my prophet but as soon as the mobile reboot nothing else happens. I've got a black screen and nothing else.
I've tried all the key combinations to reach the bootloader I even tried to run bootloader.exe directly from the mobile but nothing.
At this moment I'm pretty stuck with the room I've got and I really want to change it , any advice ?
I've tried:
camera+softreset
Commanager+softreset
in both cases I kept press the camera and commanager botton .
I've also tried other combination but without the behaviour expected.
Thanks in advance
Look forward your reply
All the best
Pedro
Turn the device on, whilst it is booting try holding the comm manager button and do a soft reset.
Try performing a hard reset (hold BOTH the camera and the comm manager buttons and soft reset), to see if you get text displayed. Don't bother actually doing one.
What ROM do you have at the moment? Have you tried unlocking (sim) your device? Have you used hardSPL or SoftSPL? What numbers are shown after the device boots up (red text in the top left of the screen)?
I´m using Shadow_My_Edition_2_no_DualSIM.
I've used HardSPL
ipl 2.9.000.1
spl 2.g4.4pda
gsm 02.47.21
os 5.2.20.21
I've started facing this issue only after this room has been uploaded, other odd thing that my prophet is doing is that the prophet only reboot if it is connected to the usb port in my laptop or to the charger directly, otherwise it enters in a continuous reboot.
I'm trying to get rid of this room but I'm not able to ....
maybe solution
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292667
try my solution for that kind of problems connect it to charger as described and then do a flash of a basic rom.
possibly u flashed a wong rom
Hi
That was a great solution, fortunately I there was no need to get so far .
Guess what I've changed the USB cable and the flashing procedure went as expected.
It´s kind of strange the behavior that my was getting but now I'm track again , ready to flash and test some rooms.
Thanks all for your replies.

I was following the instruction here on how to backup and re-flash your own Hermes ROM:
http://www.modaco.com/content-page/...ring-your-htc-hermes-rom/page/20/#entry894621
After I completed the last steps 9 of running RUUWrapper.exe, the screen told me that my ROM upgrade have completed successfully. then I looked at my Hermes and the screen is black and and it seems to be powered off.
After exited RUUWrapper.exe my PC Activesync icon is gray.
So I tried to soft reset and also hard reset, nothing happends.
I took battery out overnight and put back in and hit power and still won't turn on.
I plug USB cable in and the charge indicator amber light doesn't come on, if I have the battery out while USB cable plugged in, the charge LED will become red, but as soon as I put the battery back in the red LED goes away and doesn't turn amber color (the normal charging LED)
I've read both of the following:
"dead hermes? corrupted radio? Post comments here"

Common Upgrading Problems in HTC Hermes
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems#problem6
any suggestions please??
Will doing the KITL+PB to try to boot OS will help? http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
But my Hermes won't even turn on now?
First thing I'd try (if you know someone with a hermes like yours) would be to swap batteries and see if theirs wont turn on with your battery and if your hermes will with his battery. Or you could go to a phone shop and see if they have a spare battery lying aroud to try (with the added promise of a potential sale if it works). Hope you can fix it though... Cheers...
Actually I just swap battery with my friend's working Hermes and his can turn on with my battery, and mine still won't turn on with his battery.
Seems there's very little I can do if my Hemes won't even turn on or response with USB cable plugged in.
Any other suggestion? I'm getting pretty desperate.
sounds like a hardware problem. if its under warranty, take back. If not, and you really wanna get fixed, you might have to pay. Check pricing first though as you may decide to upgrade instead.
i hav exactly the same problem. herme 300 t-mobile bootloader 1.11 (ipl 1.01) i never managed to flash it ether with sd card or from my pc (winxp). i recieved different errors: invalid vendor, not allowed... help plz
sorry form the poor english
paloma728, you need to sim/cid unlock your phone, HERE : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665
THEN you need to Hard SPL your phone... HERE : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
But 1st you need to do some reading through those threads I just gave you. Also look for mrVanxs upgrading guide. You wouldn't have got in trouble if you had've first done some research....
Hope this helps you out of your mess... Cheers..
ultramag69. with all respect, how can i cid or sim unlock it. my herm stk in bootloader 3color screen. sometimes turns on but the screen remains black (displays nothing) by the way this was the result of wrong flashing (idont know how bkz i gave i to a friend to do the job 4 me!! . may u help me out of this. actually i did alot of reading but couldnt find any solution to my device.
thx 4 ur concrn
1st thing I'd try to do is to Hard SPL the phone. That was on page 116 of the "Hard SPL or how not to brick your hermes" thread I directed you to. It shows how to do using sd card. Then try to reflash with stock rom. This should get you back to where you started. Use the sd card method as I don't think you'll be able to use the pc. I don't know if this will work as it sounds like your friend also didn't Hard SPL your phone.
You REALLY shouldn't let anyone play around with such an expensive toy without proof that they know what they are doing (for example, own one themselves and have flashed their own MULTIPLE times with no problems) ... You might have a very expensive paperweight, and a bit more wisdom about letting others do what you should have learnt to do yourself.
All the best and I hope you get it working... Cheers...
i tried the solution u gave but didnt work too. the solution works with unbricked devices i gues (able to copy and excute files from it) but for me i tried to boot only the"HERMIMG.nbh" from the sd card (4 color screen or just black screen) & wich shows the following error code:00068002
thx for ur help.
paloma728, try flashing a stock rom. yu can do this by the sd card method too. I REALLY don't know if this will work but at this point it can't hurt. Nothing to loose and everything to gain... As it is the "right" update it MAY pass the CID check. Hope all goes well... Cheers..
your battery topped off while being plugged is my best guess. i dont think it's with the flashing of the rom at all
im new to this stf. (stock room)?. is it the exacly the method of copying the "RUU_signed.nbh" file to sd card and rename it to "HERMIMG.nbh" ?
if this is what u meant by stk rm then im not lucky again. i tried it b4 with many different rooms & always get errors
plz may u explain? thx for ur help & concern
today i downloaded an original room from t-mobile NL then tried the sd method & i recieved a new error code:"00028002 not allowed".
what does it mean plz?
You may have to take back to your supplier and see if they can fix under warranty if that didn't work. Don't hold your breath though...
unfortunatly there's no splr in here (morocco). thx alot mate

well to anyone that can help i tried to remove the simlock on my hd2 with all htcv1.2 and it froze my phone so i took the battery out and restarted the phone everything comes on the buttons work but touchsreen is dead somehow all htc v1.2 messed it up any ideas thankyou
try doing a hard-reset first, by pressing the volume up and down and power button at the same time.
If this doesnt fix it then reload factory rom using SD card method if you have HSPL
If that doesnt work then its your hardware call HTC and get it fixed if you have warranty.
Luckych
htc
i have tried all those options i have tried 3 diff energy roms a factory tmobile rom all load fine the phone comes on and all buttons work and and can see everything on the screen just no touchscreen i have also tried hard reset im lost thankyou for your ideas tho
it looks like you burnt out your digitizer then, would need to call htc for repair or repair it yourself bud.... sorry
