Hi there i bricked my XDA Trion.
All i get is the Operator Logo.
I try to flash a new rom but no matter how i do it, all i get is a very short "no image file" and then the tri color screen.
I have a Herm100
Any help would be appreciated!
How you trying to flash it? Got Hard SPL installed?
You need to give more info or you won't get much help...
Have you read this thread?
You need HSPL on your device before you can flash a new rom or radio
What does your SPL say in bootloader? You need to provide more info
no image file
I have the same message (error), i have sucesfully instaled hard spl, and it shows in tricolour screen but when I try to boot the instalation it tels me NO IMAGE FILE even though I have renamed the file to kovsimg.nbh and have put it on the memory card. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP.... im using the windows 7 x64 and windows mobile device center....does the image file goes to the memory card???? or the phone??? and what could be the reasons for this message??? any info would help so I can move foward....
What the hell is "kovsimg.nbh"?
If you are flashing a Hermes it should be hermimg.nbh... Nothing else will work... If you aren't flashing a Hermes and you now have Hermes hard SPL on your device, you now have a certifiable brick...

Reflashing
Hello everyone, hope you're having a good Xmas.
I have the same problem but it's partly of my own making. I was upgrading my O2 XDA II to the lastest ROM (obtained from O2 website) and my laptop went into sleep mode after 46% of the upgrade was complete. Now all I have is the O2 blue screen. Soft and hard resets do nothing.
I did backup all my data (which I'm not sure includes the OS) to SDIO before starting the update and don't know if I can recover from that.
I will need to send it back to have it re-flashed if I can't find a solution but any advice you guys can give would be most welcome. At the moment my PC can't see the usb connected XDA and there's no activity on the XDA screen.
Thanks for your support people!
I need help, after upgrading to XDA Live Rom i decided to downgrade the radio. The flashing got interrupted cause of MSN and the device got bricked, It stops at HTC splash screen after saying NO GSM. I have tried every method imaginable to recover my poor PDA..
All I can get is to the bootloader where i got IPL-1.01 and SPL-1.09.
I've tried the microSD card thing with the .nbh file named HERMIMG, screen goes white, says loading and then checking and then back to the Tri-colour screen.. nothing done :/
Obviously i cannot get an active sync connection so some thing which i could have tried doing weren't possible to achieve.
I tried using the RomUpgradeUT but i get a porblem with vendor ID with all the ROMS and get an error 262 Update Error, I try to do the recovery thing but the PDA always boots in the HTC splash screen and gets stuck there..
Can anyone help??
can you mtty into the device?
yes.. i can.. tried following instruction and installing as in forums but no results. tried loading the .nb files but never made effect
what happens when you reflash radio rom manually ??
if you didn't have the mfg bootloader you have to use the exe files...
maybe just flash the 1.04 loader and then use the 1.27 radio updater (t-mobile)...
after that reflash the 1.01 mfg and you can flash manually ágain
could you guide me in doing that?? tell me what to download an d how to get the nb files for the radio??? plus i didn't get the hang of the mtty yet... thanks for everything

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
Hey friens and developers,
I have read the information in post " dead hermes? corrupted radio? Post comments here" and follow the instruction "Device is stuck in bootloader mode".
My problem is, I can´t get a connection to my device (mtty), I have on 4 different PCs (XP or Vista Operation System) every time the same information --> "USB Port can´t not open".
My Question is, is the Bootloader damage ?
History:
The hermes are function well and I get yesterday a problem with frozen the Device. I solve the problem and do a hard reset, but after Installation the Device boot and stay now in the HTC Screen. (Look attachment). If i hardreset the device a see the tri-color Boot-Picture for a 0,5 sec, but no numbers.
THX for some idea´s
Thomas
Did you read the Wiki page for unbricking the Hermes?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
Yes I do, but I have the Problem with the USB Connection (mtty). You have any Idea for the USB Problem?
The Hermes now is function with USB. I install a new XP with SP2 on my PC and I have a connection.
Now I see the BOOTLOADER
HERM200
IPL-1.04
Herm200
SPL 2.-03
I want to flash the Device, but every Solution STOPT by 1%, "the image file is corrupted". Any Idea how to change the Bootloader to a compatibility Bootloader over mtty?
What ROM you trying to flash? It has to be a Hermes ROM or you're gonna end up with a permanent brick.
Have you installed Hard SPL V7? If you have you can use the sd card method to install the ROM.
If its a Hermes ROM and you keep getting the "the image file is corrupted" message, good, it means you won't have a brick at the end as the file is corrupted and could result in a brick. Either download the ROM image again or download something else. That error message is there to save your Hermes from brickage.
Cheers...
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
