Same Problem
Hello again,
i have the same problem, i search for a result but now i upgrade the radio, but now i cant flash the radio again, it start to hang at 11%...
I had a similar problem on my Wizard one time.
I ended up fixing it by flashing on of the giant original shipping roms.
The rom includes everything and was the only way I could recover from the corrupt radio flash.
Hope this helps you.
Try testing your radio with other sim (some other operator's sim
is prefereabile, in your region)
hopes must not die. I will work again

these problems are caused be something glitching up in the flash, not the sim
Got the same problem: the radio died without any new flash
If you find a solution, I have some interest too

Try to flash again, i had same errors after i flashed some different ROM`s.
What i remember just right now:
I get a new sim card on thursday since then i have this no GSM error.
Now i`m scared to setup my connection because the device is running.
Had some connection losses but as long its working...
Not really.... i open Programms and scroll down then windows hang.
No UMTS connection i bought it because i want to read my emails, not just to make phone calls .
And to be honestly : to flash around
Still looking for a solution for that no GSM error.
Thank you for your attention.
Same Problem
I got an replacement from At&t because of the white screen effect on the Cingular version.
As soon as I load in the sim it gives me a no gsm message..
so i load up black X rc and the newest att radio and i still get the message..
So finally i hard reset a couple of times and it goes away..
Now the only thing is that the connection reset a lot and even flashing back to the original raido with an downgraded ipl and spl still doesn't solve that. I even got a new sim and no luck.
I even went to the point of simunlocking it and it still doesn't work.
Keep in mind that this is the new att 8525 and the cingular 8525 worked better even it i cudn't see the screen..lol
you guys have tried the file off this page, right?
http://www.america.htc.com/support/8525/software-downloads.html
yea i tried the one off htc's website i get an error about 11% thru, any other ideas because im going crazy i have no gsm no phone service no service period!! HELP!!!
Yes, the latest supported wm5 is the one i had originally.
Any ideas from anyone?
hey..... just for understanding....
ur RADIO ROM version is - 1.16.00.00. Hope you know that this has to be separately updated, and is not included in any of the ROMs available in the cooked format e.g schaps....
may i suggest that you upgrade to one of the latest RADIO ROMs, available here - http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
The 1.48 RADIO ROM seems particularly stable all around the world, so go ahead and give it a try - ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Hermes/HERM_Radio_Only_1.48.00.10_CustomRUU.rar
After that, you could choose Schap's latest ROM and upgrade to the same; and check if things work out.
EDIT: I see that you have flashed different radio roms already......
NOOB's ANSWER TO THIS PREDICAMENT: Downgrade to the offficial radio and ROM. And see to it that you restore your SPL i.e., follow the procedures of removing olipro.... and take it to your nearest O2 dealer...
Maybe this helps ?
How about this one:
Flash your ROM radio etc.
Take out the battery for 20 minutes.
Yesterday i flashed the original O2 ROM after it said No GSM again.
I was mad and took out the battery.
In the morning i inserted the battery again and since then no problem.
To test this if its really working i flashed a HTC ROM, after configuration etc. i took out the battery again, waited ~ 20 minutes.
Because it said no GSM again after flashing HTC ROM.
Looks like its working (for me)
Edit
No its not working
The original O2 ROM was working almost perfect just flashomanianing it back ... Hope it will work .
similar problem plz plz help
hey.. i would really appreciate if you guys could help me out with this one (i am a noob =(( )

Flashed WM5 same error = No GSM
Sometimes it shows No R No G
Tested it with 3 different operators sim card.
Setup a complete new OS on my notebook (because i thought a virus maybe and it corrupted the downloaded files).
During the flash process i even dont breathe but no help
Flashed HTC ROM with radio 1.47... interrupted the second update/setup process.
Was ok for 3 hours.
Are we all just beta testers from HTC and MS ?
Im still getting the same issue. Although I unlocked and superCID the deviece I will try to get a warranty exchange on it. It was messing up before I did any of that so I don't think that it should matter. I just want my old Cingular 8525... but i guess i have to keep on trying until I get a good one.
Hi did you ever find a solution to the radio rom flash hanging at 11% i have the same problem I can flash the os but the radio rom always hangs at 11% so nice pda no phone options
Ladies and gentlemen, I had the same problem, and I fixed it. Here's my story.
I was an idiot one night. Pulling my trusty 8525 from my pocket to read a text message, I instead dropped it. On its face. On pavement. From waist height.
I know, I cringed, too.
Ever since then, I got the No GSM error, and radio ROMs refused to flash beyond 11%, except the original factory ship ROM which got as far as 12%. Everything else worked perfectly except the radio.
I took it to one of the IT guys at work who suggested that I may have damaged something on the mainboard, but here's another 8525 you can play with if you want, because it's in the recycle box and will be going out the door to be recycled soon and we won't see any money out of it anyway, so here, it's yours.
Problem was, 8525-b had video issues. SOMETIMES would get the whitescreen. ALWAYS wrapped the bottom ten or fifteen rows of pixels up to the top of the screen. But the phone worked flawlessly.
Then, I discovered that the "video card" is separate from the main circuit board. Therefore, 8525-a had problems with the mainboard, and 8525-b had problems with the videoboard.
The solution presents itself.
Took them both apart, took the mainboard from the 8525-b and installed it into the 8525-a.
My Hermes is back. Everything functions flawlessly, including the radio. And everything flashes, too.
Point of the story: I don't know if you dropped your phone or if maybe something else may have caused some damage, but the only way that I was able to work around the radio rom flash hanging at 11% issue was to replace the mainboard. I got lucky, I was good friends with the IT guy. But I was never able to find another solution.
I have recently purchased a second hand I-Mate Jasjar which had been upgraded from Windows Mobile 5 to Mobile 6 prior to my obtaining the Jasjar. Installing a small game has now corrupted the device and the I-mate start up page is all that now displays along with three lines of red writting. A soft and hard reset has achieved nothing along with battery removal and restarting. Where do I go to from here. Reinstall Mobile 6- the beta version came with the Jasjar. I would appreciate some help here as I am new to PDAs.
try to check on wiki.xda-developers.com. There is HOWTO (check how to exit bootloader) it may help. if not try to find any Imate JasJar shipped ROM and update.
Hallo,
I've got a big problem with my MDAIII. After the upgrade to WM6 rom my radio doesn't work anymore. I have tried to update the Radio rom but with no succes. Every radio rom update tool i dowload will not work.
I read many wiki's and posts but come no further.
I have read that i have to downgrade to WM3, then update my radiorom and then update to WM6. But the problem is the downgrade roms to WM2003 doesn't work too.
The other strange thing is when i put out my battery and then put it back and startup my pda he says:
R:None
G:None
D:6.11.00.wwe
But when i gave the device a soft reset or hard reset the versions are:
R:1.00.00
G:1337.30
D:6.11.00.wwe
What are the real numbers?
Who can help me?
Sad MDAIII user
Edit:
If i give the device a hard reset and the startup screen give me this info:
R:1.00.00
G:1337.30
D:6.11.00.wwe
then the phone accepts the pin code from my simcard, but after the accept the device gives the message unknown SIM status.
Problem solved. Found a Radio rom that can install in bootloader mode. Or they al have to i don't actualy know.
Can you ponit me to the radio rom that actually works?
I have the same problem, although I install radio updates in bootloader, no one is kept when I remove the battery.
thanks
on WM5, WM6 and WM6.1, when u take out the battery, you need to soft-reset the device to allow the radio to boot.
ive lived with this 'issue' ever since i started flashing roms over my blueangel wm2003.
it's never been a problem...more of a minor annoyance to have to 'double-boot'.
say for example..if I've changed simcards and is switching on device for the first time id have to
1. switch on
2. reset to get the radios recognised
Hi All,
I have an MDA3 and recently upgraded it to wm 6.5 21630 by Sun-Dream, I now have no service for the phone.
I have been reading here on the forum to put it back to 2003 and change the phone settings.
It wont downgrade back to 2003, i can flash it all ok, it restarts, set the stylus screen then when it says click the screen to start using it freezes, I have tired 3 different roms even the official one from T-Mobile.
It will go back to wm 6.1 or 6.5 no problems, all i need is my phone back.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Mark.

Are you performing a hard reset after flash?
also you should make sure to remove the sim and sd card from the device for the up- and downgrading process, as it can mess up your radio and stop you from being able to make calls. if a hard reset does not help, you should try down- and re-upgrading your radio.
some users also reported that the sim card can actually be harmed during the upgrade process. give the card a try in another phone. if it doesn't work anymore, that could also be the issue. most carriers replace broken sim cards for free.
but you should try out the different methods from easy (hard reset) to the most drastic, which would be a new sim. also, you might want to compare your upgrade process to the one in my tutorials. if you did anything different, that could have caused this problem.
Hello,
I'm currently facing an issue with my MDA Vario V. I'm stuck on the setup screen of Windows Mobile 6.1, the phone freezes at completion. I want to restore it, but the official German T-Mobile ROM is not available anymore. The Hard_SPL method is not working in 2023.
This is the old link for the ROM I'm looking for:

Another user had the same issue a decade ago, here is the link of the thread:
[Q] HTC touch pro 2 stuck,pls help noob!
hi my htc touch pro 2 is stuck on the HTC screen with red number and letters at the bottom left B 80 R 4.49.25.91 G 61.44etc.25.35U D 2.07.80303 already done a soft reset and hard reset it works but then reboot non stop, ending to the HTC...
forum.xda-developers.com
If someone is willing to help me, please reply on my post. I'm trying to figure things out for weeks but had minor success. I know this phone is obsolete and about 15 years old, but I still have a sweet spot for such devices and really want it working again.
Update: I also called Telekom (former T-Mobile), they already removed all documentation and couldn’t help me either.
I let the phone “finish” the setup for about 2 days now. Still no success. On reboot I’m sometimes able to bug it out and enter the message / mail / settings app, but it freezes there too.
Regards,
Keigo
When trying to load an image from the SD card, I also get the "no Image File!" error. Probably due to the lack of Hard_SPL.
