Hermes update problem. Keeps turning itself off?

I am trying to use the offical HTC WM6 update (I have the dopod 838pro and i am sure i can use this update)
but when ever it starts to patch, my phone would somehow turn itself off (not totally off, just on standby) which will make my update result in a error 260
Tried everything and it doesn't the update doesn't work in bootloader mode.
Can anyone shed some light? I have no clue what is happening.
Thanks!
Never used it myself.
You'll get better updates on this web site that from Windows
I had similar problems after installing a ROM earlier in the year. I think it was the radio upgrade that effectively bricked it. I ended up flashing a legit ROM for my operator (T-Mobile) and taking it back to the store under its year warranty.
For that reason I have never touch the Radio on mine again!

problem! update hasnt actually updated phone

hey
I have an orange phone which a while ago i flashed with a generic rom and rooted. because of this i was unable to install the OTA so i did a manual upgrade to this rom:
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe
This installed fine (it seems), but as i am on orange, when i rebooted the phone it was network locked. I read that flashing an older radio solved this problem so i went and flashed this radio:
update-bravo-radio-32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11-signed.zip
This now makes my phone boot and work fine with no lock, HOWEVER, the software version still says it is on 1.15.405.4 and not the updated version!!!!
I have tried testing one of the bugs that was fixed in the new ota (i sms'd myself from skype and it still says it was sent by a facebook contact) and so that fix clearly wasnt present and the upgrade just hasnt seemd to work. Can anyone shed any light on this? could it have anything to do with what is installed on my phone during step 1 of the root? the root package i am using is called r5-desire-root-alt
Thanks for anyone who can help on this
Rooting the phone puts the 1.15.405.4 ROM back on your device, if you want 1.21 you'll have to then buy an unlock code to free up the device...
There is an update ZIP in the ROM dev forum which updates the system but leaves the radio alone so might wanna try that...
thanks for this, but the only update i have been able to find in the dev forum is the one on this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
but there is a note at the top saying they all contain radio updates
do you have a link to one without the radio update?
Didn't look hard did you??

thank you sooo much, this has finally sorted out my problem

[Q] Dropping calls/signal

Hey peeps any help here would be fantastic.
My wifes HTC Dedire keeps dropping calls and loosing network signal at random times, this has only started recently no reason for this starting ie Droping/Spillage, She's on O2 its not due to area as been up and down the country with same issue.
Firmware version 2.1-update 1
Cant update to 2.2 as phone says phone is up to date.
Any hints or ideas will be greatly appreciated.
I'm sure there is a 2.2 update for O2 phones floating around somewhere or and RUU. Use that and see if it updates your radio. That might help.
Thanks for the reply, I've searched high and low for the 2.2 update to no avail, what's this rru? The OTA update isn't working as it's says the phone us up to date already, there's got to be another way to update surely?? Thanks again for your help.

Carrier unlocker and ROM problem

Specs:
Note 2, GT-N7100
Build nr: JRO03C.N7100XXALJ3
Baseband version: N7100DXALJ1
Location: Norway
Hello!
I tried to unlock my note 2 with this method:
http://www.ibtimes.com/how-carrier-unlock-samsung-galaxy-note-2-permanently-tutorial-926231
but I got this error:
menu not exist
press back key
current command is 186
I noticed that this is a known problem, but I haven't found any solutions. I read that reverting from 4.1.2 to 4.1.1 might do the trick, but I don't find any ROM supporting my model.
I tried this ROM (http://androidlegend.com/update-galaxy-note-2-n7100-to-xxalj3-android-4-1-1-official-firmware/), but it doesn't work.. It only shows "Samsung" on startup and nothing happens.
Any help appreciated!
Edit: I hard reset the phone, and it got back to version 4.1.1. I still get the same message as stated above..
Yesterday I tried two stock 4.1.1 roms from Sammobile with no luck. 4.1.1 NEE (nordic countries).
I still get the same message:
MENU NOT EXIST
PRESS BACK KEY
Current Command is 186
Is there any other way to do this?
no one..?
This quote pretty much sums up my situation:

Nobody messed with my phone and I had (have) the same issue.
I've googled alot about this issue, both in english and my native language. I haven't found a single case of success getting that menu active. But I've found alot of people with the exact same issue, and making alot of effort to see that menu.
I've tryed at least 10 different firmwares, including uk o2 firmware that some users reported success with their equipments.
All those firmwares and modem/radio flashes made no difference whatsoever in the service menu. Also tryed french sfr, all android versions available (4.0.4, 4.1.1, 4.1.2), and alot more from uk and Portugal.
Like I've posted before, at a local cell shop I've tryed the code on a device in display and in the service menu, the final menu is there. Not like my cell "menu not exist".
I'm guessing it's not firmware dependant (the existence of the last menu), but equipment dependant. Of course you need 4.1.1 for the procedure to work, but you can also see the last menu with 4.1.2. But for some reason to some of us, this menu simply does not exist.
Hope you guys can sort this out.
