Hi,
I need to go back to SPL 1.04 in order to have my warranty back because the Hermes stuck after downgrade of ROM.
I saw many explanation but I didn't see how to make it work, Need the right way PLEASE.
Thanks.
let your PDA boot into windows Mobile, then install my 1.04 SPL from the Hard-SPL thread following the instructions.
after this you will be able to flash any ROM to your PDA and it will be brought back to retail; including the SPL.
jumping in here... i am currently running 1.09-des spl and when i attempt install the 1.04 spl, it goes through all of the steps and when it tries to load the BL i get a update error and the install fails. i'm running vista btw.
I have the same "update error" problem running Windows Vista.
I have an MDA Vario II unlocked and SuperCID. But I can't do any radio-update, cause installation procedere stops with "update error" with the advise that I have to check my USB-connection.
I run bootloader SPL-1.40.Olipro
Sync etc. runs without any problems unter Vista. Can anybody help?

Vista is the debil. use XP. Most all people with Vista have issues unless they downgrade their drivers. I don't have a link to the post that explained this but I read it here on these forums. If you don't have an XP computer surely someone you know does.
see the vista config guide
I recently purchased a SPV M3100 after reading many great reviews on this device.
I have just unlocked it using the HTC Hermes SIM & CID unlocker v3a using my old Windows XP laptop and it works great (I've tried using my Vista ultimate 64 computer earlier it didn't work).
I am now interested in upgrading my SPV M3100 to latest software available from Orange or the WM6 roms available on this site like Black Dymond, really keen in seeing its potential.
I have read through the Hermes upgrading forums carefully and made sure all is done properly. I have even read through the Mr Vanx step guides in upgrading.
First I decided to use the Orange update from their website.
After making sure the USB cables are connected correctly and allowing the WMDC to sync I proceeded to run the update.
I followed each step and tick the boxes. The phone goes into the tricolour mode or bootloader screen with the following on the screen:
Herm100
IPL-1.01
Herm100
SPL-1.40
On the computer, the window 'verifying your device' is on for few minutes, after this a new window appears indicating: ERROR 260 - update error
This happens again and again, day after day, I have soft reset the device, rebooted the computer, tried both the XP and vista computers, check the usb cable and connections, did everything that is said in the forums, but nothing....
I have even attempted to use the HardSPL program and followed the process to load the black dymond, but same message appears.
Must note that after soft resetting the device the phone returns to its original state, so no harm done. but no upgrade....... Damm...
Help... Any ideas ...... Please....
Many thanks

Update your WMDC to the latest version.
Then try again
Thanks for your prompt reply...
I thought when I originally installed the WMDC was the latest version as I have downloaded it from the Microsoft windows mobile website....
I have downloaded the appropiate Vista 64 version for my vista machine and the appropiate xp version for my xp laptop...
Did you download the latest version...are you sure??

Same problem -> Error 260 if I try to upgade.
Hi
I hve the same issue. Tried on Windows XP and Vista.
Also downlaoded the latest WMDC.
Could that be something with the area code?
I'm in Norway.
For XP should you not be using ActiveSync 4.5?
I re-flahed my M3100. The first attempt it failed, it then recovered itself and the second attemp was successful.
Im sure I have, just downloaded the other day, anyway I have downloaded it again just now, installed it, connected my phone and allowed the sync process to complete. I run the orange update again and still the same message..... Error 260: update error
What SPL version do you have?
To check press and hold BOTH the side ok button and the power button, then insert the stylus into the hole in the bottom of the device.
I have SPL 1.40 Olipro
So i take it you havent read or searched on this error, the orange RUU cannot recognise your device because you have anewer SPL version (HardSPL)...ffs dude had you told us that fact it would have saved you PLENTY of time. You posted you had SPL version 1.40...................you SHOULD have said you have already updated to HArdSPL (1.40.olipro)
follow my Safe WM5 Flashing Guide to get it done.
Sorry if I have wasted your time. I thought that I included the my phone details (SPL and rom etc) on my original message.
I have searched for this error, but I gather I wasn't getting anywhere...
So I thought I would ask for some help and advice....
Anyway thanks for replying with your help. I will check your link straight away.
If I still have problems, I hope it would be ok to ask in this thread.
Thankx Mr Vanx for all your help.
It is now working. I've loaded the WM6 Black IV Shadow rom.
Do you know when there will be a 3G / video dialer for this rom.
Many thanks
Hi MRVANX, i also have the same SPL and my radio is not working. I tried to open the link that you have pasted but the link is broken. Can you please share the info here or on my email address "[email protected]"
Hi,
My herm 200 ,swisscom, has IPL1.01 and SPL 1.4Olipro. But always when I try to install Hardspl v7 it give me error 262 and only 0%.
Can someoone help me what to do because I want to flash new rom and new radio rom trough my SD card.
Thnx
i would suggest reading this wiki page which might help you with that error. A recent thread that had a error with flashing hard spl here may help you although it is for a different error, you may still get some ideas on how to fix it.
Hope this helps and Good luck
I did read everything but with no success. always error 262. I have Win XP SP3 with framework 3.5 but I dont think that would be a problem for this error.
Have you tried putting the Free HTC Hermes SIM & CID unlocker on your hermes as this may be the problem or have you tried flashing it using the sd card method.
Go to page 116, post 1160 of this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722 . It will tell you how and supply ALL the apps so you can use the sd card... Easier and safer...
Cheers...
is it the same procedure to put a new OS Rom through the SD card? After flashing to Hardspl v7.
P.S. it is super CID because I checked with mtty.
So I had an 8525 stored in the closed cause i had another phone.
So I powered it up after charging and its been working great.
About a year ago I had upgraded from WM5 to WM6 the official ATT release update.
I want to get 6.5 now but when I try to flash HardSPL7 it fails.
Before doing this I wanted to make sure I could sync and see my memory card, backup data and all that was successful via USB connection.
When I do the SPL it goes all the way to update it so I click on update and my phone asks me that it will run a program that might be harmful. I click yes and it goes to a rainbow colored screen. After about 1 min. My computer closes the connection to the phone and I get an error saying to check usb cable..etc.
On the phone it still shows USB. If i disconnect it it goes to Serial. If I connect it shows USB again, but the Hardspl7 program just closes out because it can't connect.
What could be the problem.
I have windows Vista
I checked troubleshooting but didn't find anything relavant to my problem.
Phone:
Herm100
IPL-1.04
Herm100
SPL-2.03
Go to page 116, post 1160 of the Hard SPL thred. It will give you instruction on how to flash Hard SPL using the sd card method.
To flash roms using this method, drop the steps using SSPL.exe (Soft SPL).
Cheers...
