hspl4 negative
first tried the (official) 3.14 rom error 260 no matter what...
from the direct(back side) usb port got to install 2.08.hspl and then 2.08.0000
i haven't seen that hspl4 was out, anyway it brings connection error all the time
Am i doing something wrong or i must do it from sd card or i want be able to install 3.14???(artemis v58)
trying for more than 6 hours now and it's almost 5:30 in the morning so i need some sleep...be back in a few hours

Sorry to hear you are having trouble flashing HSPL to your HD2. Clkick on my guide I have in my sig it has full instructions and link to all the software you need to flash HSPL. Best of luck.

Thank you T-Macgnolia i will give it a try!!!

Can't get nothing than 2.08.hspl or 0000.
Found some drivers somewhere in here for the htc usb sync.
Started the official 3.14 and got on the phone 0% but no more, error 262,
tried again few times but nothing. Also tried with custom ruu to update the radio
but same error there too.
Got the 2gb microsd and empty it (fat 32)and extracted from 3.14 the nbh and renamed it put it inside the card boot the tri color screen and got nothing.
Any suggestions...i got the 2.08 hspl on.
EDIT: win 7 closed antivirus, firewall and the web

Can't run Artemis (or any other 3.14 rom) on any spl except 3.03.hspl, so you need hspl4.
Any spl ending. 0000 will NOT allow flashing, since. 0000 is stock spl.
All the usual USB issue tips apply, ,, don't use front mounted USB ports (even if sync and flashing work from a front mounted port, doesn't mean hspl will work) , don't use USB hubs, update wmdc before you start, put phone into bootloader manually and then run hspl, try all your USB ports, try a different PC if available, (man if I had a pound for every time I've typed those out,,,)
When you put the nbh on the SD card, you did rename it leoimg, right? Didn't leave it called ruu_signed did you? If not, then you aren't reading the instructions properly, slow down, read everything fully again.

Thanks samsamuel!!!
I put the (official) 3.14 nbh as leoimg into the 2gb card that came with the phone that's
why it didn't work.
After i read again i saw that the 2gb card that came with the phone won't work.
Then i put my 8gd card it worked fine and flashed correctly.

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

[Q] flashed a spl 3.5 rom into a spl 1.2 x7500, is it bricked?

I have flashed my x7500 before using the Athena_WM6_TMUK_2.35.110.4 rom and that worked. Bootloader said spl v1.0 so I tried the authenaunlocker which said it worked and from then the bootloader said spl 1.2 olipro
I then thought I could update to AGB v3.0 , it seemed like it worked but when it rebooted, it shows some mad pixels like a corrupt image and then seems to boot but with a black screen. I can hear it do the ping it does when it asks to calibrate the screen but it is entirely black :-(
I have tried an sd card method of loading a new rom but it always fails after a few seconds with red numbers 68002 and then goes back to the tri color boot loader.
I tried ultravanilla rom renamed to ATHEIMG.nbh in the sd card (formatted to fat32) and that does the same thing with the red numbers.
have I completely bricked it?
I should say that I'm on Windows 7 and I've tried the MAC change fix but the mtty app doesn't give me a usb port to select, just com1 and com2
I tried the windows exectuable for updating the rom but it always fails with error 244 invalid model id.
here's the images I see
[edit] hurray! the mtty thing worked after I found an old laptop that had xp on it to use, as soon as I had that I downloaded activesync , unchecked allow usb connections and fired up mtty, that had an entry for usb and then I just followed the instructions and was able to change the id, after that, I was able to use the windows exe rom update. I'm now back to where I'm started and have donated to cmonex!
hi i have the same problem with my t-mobile ameo.
the tri-screen even shows the same digits as yours.
did you manage to get a fix for it. or is it totally bricked
If you can enter the bootloader (tricolor screen) it should be possible to reactivate your Ameo. I have flashed my Ameo with wrong SPL ROM too (because it was labled as SPL 1.2 but is SPL 3.5).
If you don't have a WinXP system on your hand, try to flash with SD-card. You need a FAT32 MiniSD card (not SDHC!) or FAT32 MicroSD with MiniSD adaptor.
Format the card and copy the ROM file (for the right SPL!) to it, rename the file from RUU_Signed.nbh to ATHEIMG.nbh. Then go to the bootloader and the Ameo should be ready to flash the new ROM.
If you have a WinXP system you can try to enter the bootloader (remove the MiniSD card before) and then connect your USB cable. The bootloader should change from "Serial" to "USB" and should be ready to flash a new rom.
If your Ameo is fractious you can find some good tutorials here.

keep your cool
the most important thing is to keep your cool, I've been in trouble before and managed to sucsses, first of all if you are able to go into bootloader you're fine, it seems to mi you flashed wrong spl, the AGB v3.00 is for spl 3.5 only and for what I understand you have spl 1.2, also i my experience you should work with win xp, i have my laptop with 2 os xp and 7, just to do rom loading on my 3 advantages, so if you are able to put your athena in bootloader plug it to your pc your athena sould change from serial to usb, if you can manage that you are almost done, now all you have to do is flash a compatible rom spl 1.2, if you still want agb v.3 you need spl 3.5 and the only way to achive that is to flash athena projet 4 rom, only when that is acomplished you would be able to load an spl 3.5 rom. I hope this help, keep us posted.
hi i have a pc on windows xp sp3 with htc 4.5 it does not pick up my phone bit it will try to load the windows 6 advantage rom,but after it reaches 2 percent ,the phone resets.i have done the same thing as above,i tried to flach a michy 3.5 rom over windows 6 on 1.25,i can get into bootloader but everytime i flash my phone resets.my mini drive is formatted,so could the problem be with the onboard sd card? if so in plain english could someone take me thru it step by step on hpw to access and format that,to see if it makes a difference,many thanks,and a nice contribution to anyone who can help me,and please if you start talking about hot keys,please state which ones,as every key is a hotkey many thanks curzie,if anyone ever needs pc or laptop advice pm me thanks

Cannot remove HSPL

I've been going through threads for some hours now but haven't round a solution, so apologies if it already exists:
I've had a problem with my HD2 freezing. It's been sat in a drawer for a while but I thought I'd try and sort it out.
So first I did task29 and that seemed to go OK.
Next I tried to install the stock Vodafone ROM. It buzzed 7 times when the update started and then stuck at 9%.
Having failed to put a ROM on it I then followed the instructions to remove HSPL. When I start it (VOL down, LEOIMG.nbh on FAT32 formatted SD card inserted) it just goes to the tricolour screen and does not flash/load whatever the nbh file.
I put the phone in the fridge for a while and re-tried the ROM update and that reported success, but it won't boot so it's back in the fridge - I'm getting worried about the battery now.
I see someone else had the same problem removing HSPL but don't know what their solution was - am I missing something?
The phone is currently sat in the fridge because I think the 7 buzzes is a heat (processor) issue so assume it's knackered anyway but I still want to remove HSPL.
[thanks for moving the thread - apologies for putting it in the wrong place to start]
UPDATE: I've now successfully updated the ROM to standard UK Vodafone but still no joy with removing HSPL. I'm using a 2GB SD card FAT32 format file names LEOIMG.nbh but I just get the coloured screen. I'm using the nbh file from the current ROM. Tricolour screen reads:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x40
And then 'serial' or 'USB' at the bottom changing as I plug it in.
Rather than using SD card stock flash, which contains a radio, (your symptoms are often the fault of the radio) you should try running hspl2, and setting spl 1.66.0000
I've also got personal expwrince of spl 2.x refusing to downgrade to 1.x, even when SD flashing, so radio problems aside i now remove spl/hspl 2.x using hspl2.exe and only then perform the SD flash.
Need a little help here, my mate got a HD2 off ebay, which was stuck at android loading screen. I have no idea what the original owner flashed or didnt flash. I can get into the tri-colour screen ok and it shows 3.03 spl, but refuses to change to usb from serial. How can I get access to flash something onto this that will boot?

I've not been on the forum for a while since I got the Sensation - can you point me to an hspl2 thread for the why's, wherefore's & how to's?
Thanks.
EDIT: Found it thanks.
To change the SPL you need the device in bootloader mode (tri-colour sreen) than you connect the usb cable between PC and device. in the white section of the bootloader should say USB (if usb sync drivers on the PC are ok). next you need HSPL2.exe, HSPL3.exe or HSPL4.exe from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433 . depending on your current SPL/HSPL ver you'll choose one of them.
About the "It's working in the fridge" problem - sorry to hear that. It's pretty much fatal. Check out here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=982454
I just got back from repair an HD2 with the same problem, vibrating 7 times, ect., and it cannot be repaired. you need new main board but they are no longer produced, and even if you find one from china it's from 280-250 USD.
I hope it's not the same with you, but...
Well I did the HSPL2.exe thing and that was a piece of cake - HSPL now removed and ROM properly installed.
It still does the vibrate 7 times thing every now and again so it looks like it's going on ebay as junk

[Q] cannot uninstall HSPL, leoimg.nbh only with SPL2.08, address range SPL

Hi all
I have a memory problem in block 2405.
I want to send it to guarantee, but i can not set back SPL.
I have HD2 WWE, HSPL2.08. I can see white screen or boot loader.
I try this:
1. HSPL4.exe, HSPL3_PKG.exe are going well to end but they really doesnt change HSPL to SPL.
2. from original ROM I build leoimg.nbh and boot from SD but I see this
00018003
LEOIMG.nbh fail
radio_V2 fail
Rcust
Boot
Splash1
OS
Configdata
UPDATE Terminated
UPDATE fail
3. to flash original rom stop after 1% with memory fail
4. mtty task29 say that block 2405 is fail
1. have you any idea how to change HSPL into SPL
2. how to build leoimg.nbh only with SPL part? I extract 02_SPL.nb from original RUU_signed.nbh ROM
3. which address range in HD2 have SPL?
try using hspl2, and try to set 1.66 or 1.42. your current spl, 2.08, is a tmous spl, and can cause occasional issues with flashing stock from sd, even on a fully working phone.
ALso worth trying the freezer trick, too. Radio_fail is a fairly common fault, sometimes it gets fixed easily, , hspl works after several tries, or several attempts at flashing the correct stock rom from sd suddenly works, or chilling teh phone in teh freezer followed by an sd falsh suddenly takes and everything is fine again., , , but most times it doesn't get fixed.
I solve the problem
thanks
I try your freezer trick and hspl2,hspl3,hspl4 in all possibilities but doesnt change hspl.
BUT I found the list of Hermes boot loader commands. And I set task 2a. And this solve the problem with memory. After it is running flash from SD.
Ahh good to know.

HD2 has white screen, can't uninstall HSPL

Hi
I have a flashed HD2 with these problems.
In Bootloader it says
PB81100 SS-BC
SPL-208.HSPL 8G XE
0X05​CotullaHSPL 0X50
If I try to install HTC RUU_Leo_S_HTC_GER_3.14.407.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship.exe it breaks after 1% it says 270 error
HD2 reboots and again white Screen. When I put off/on battery and press Volume down I see bootloader display.
I tried to flash with sd Card, leoimg.nbh on the sdcard breakes after 10%
it says
00018003
LEOIMG.nbh -FAIL
Radio-Fail
I think I have a bootloader problem. How can I remove SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE and set the new orginal SPL ?
here bepe says :
4) Uninstallation
Only way to remove the HSPL is to flash an original SPL from SD card.
- Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.
- Rename it to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset the device while pressing the volume down button.

does anybody have an Idea?
Radio_2.15.50.14.nbh installation fails, but custom rom like energy sucesses. After that again white screen
nobody knows the solution?
You have a stuck radio. Fairly common, with a variety of symptoms. The radio wont let itself be changed which is why custom roms and splashscreens don't have a problem.(radio gets flashed at the start of flashing which is why it always fails around 8-10%) This issue can affect spl to a greater or lesser degree, some people can change spl some can't, some find flashing an older (but correct for that phones cid and region) stock rom, some find chilling the phone allows the flash to take allowing the radio to finally change, some never get anything to flash again.
hi
thank you for your answer. My Bootloader shows
SPL-3.03.HSPL XE
0X05
0X50
if I try to run Task29 via USB Cable, I get Error 270, it breaks sometimes at 16%
reflash 3.03 HSPL with HSPL 4 says it is successfull, but if I try to flash a rom with usb again it shows 270 Error, so my logical deduction is, reflash with HSPL4 does not really flash and it gives wrong answer because others like task28 leo customRUU can't flash over usb cable. HSPL 4 says success but this answer must be fake, after reboot 3.03HSPL remains in the bootloader, I tried to downgrade to 2.08HSPL no chance,
My System is Windows XP SP3 when I connect USB Cable to my HD2 it shows USB in the bootloader but why does it break if I try to flash over USB Cable and give an error 270 ? there must be a connection problem between my laptop and HD2.
I would like to know
Is there any way to flash HSPL4 over microSD card?
Can I see which Radio Rom has been installed ?
its a bit strange
Radio Rom Radio_2.15.50.14 istallation via USB Cable fails after 4%
and via microSD Card ~96-99%
I get
00018003

as i said,. you have a radio image that isnt allowing itself to be overwritten. My name for it is 'stuck radio' and some people fgind the radio still works fine with, for example, custom roms, it just cant be changed, others find the phone always hangs on grey bootscreen, yet more find taht hspol/spl flashes seem to work but nothing changes, some find chilling it in teh freezer lets a rom flash and suddenly all is well, and yet more find the freezer trick seems to work but doesnt, and yet more try and try and try to sd card flash with their CORRECT stock rom and suddenly without warning teh flash works.
My advcie, Prepare yourself for disappointment, but keep trying,and most importantly READING there are hundreds of threads about this.
