Every other rom that I try either fails at 12% or 82%. I cant use HardSPLv7 or HardSPL. I've reached my the conclusion that my device will for ever be bricked. I started out with a No GSM error and I end up with Black Satin which is really stable but it doesnt help that I have no radio flashed to it. I refuse to cut my loses. Anyone that can be helpful I would greatly appreciate it!!!

Thank you C Brown
Have you tried flashing the HTC Official Rom with radio?
Try flashing back to the official ROM from your carrier...and the flash different ROM
Sounds like the Radio has been corupted.
Have you checked here
http://http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
I'm thinking you need to flash a radio back onto your device. Most if not all of the Cooked Roms recently don't have a Radio included. So, try upgrading the radio. From what I know, flashing a Rom with HardSPL on your device is fairly safe but the Radio is where things can go wrong.
Maybe you should visit the Hermes Upgrading forum and ask the guys there, look at the Sticky's.
I wonder how you lost the Radio? Did you try to upgrade it or did it just disappear?
I bought the phone bricked it had a No GSM error soo I figured I could fix it. Ive been working with wizards for sometime and I've never been able to not recover one. So Ive tried about 4 different radios all of which either fail for error 260 or 262. I've tried from both the os and bootloader. I had schaps newest rom and black satin and both of which ran fine but still no radio. Every OEM base rom I've tried fails at 82% its strange. I've read on other message boards that the only fix is to swap the boards. I dont believe that. I also tried Mtty's set 14 0
task 8 with no avail. I'm thinking if I down grade to WM5 and find a stable radio any radio for that matter and try to work up the ladder back to WM6.

Black Satin rom
GSM error so no radio
Try using the V3 Unlock then flash it may help.

Also its HTC branded its a straight TYTN its not bound to any carrier. So it should be sim unlocked but hopefully the Cid can be unlocked which could be the hang up during rom and radio changes. Thank you all for you advice all of it will be noted and tried out later today.
So I successfully Flashed Pandora to my phone but still no radio

Have tried radio only roms,
they wont work at all and stays at 0%
have olivpro 2.30 and hardspl7
thought this was ment to prevent bricking?
no, it improves chances of recovering a brick but wont stop it from happening. It loks like your radio is corrupted. You might have to bite the bullet and tell your dad his phone no longer works... sorry for the bad news...
have you tried flashing a rom with radio included through yur sd card. had same issue and this worked for me.
If ya can't install a radio, sounds like your stuck with a pda and not a phone.
Have you tried a number or radio's?
As ultramag69 says
no, it improves chances of recovering a brick but wont stop it from happening. It loks like your radio is corrupted. You might have to bite the bullet and tell your dad his phone no longer works... sorry for the bad news...

using hardsplv7 improves chances of recovering, but nothing is 100%
If you flash your phone with manufacturers rom and get everything back to original, see if orange or manufacturer will fix it under warranty or insurance. THIS IS A LAST RESORT AS IF THEY DIG DEEP AND KNOW YOU HAVE MESSED WITH PHONE, THEY'LL DO NOTHING FOR YOU!!!
Personally I have returned phone once due to not being able to receive or make calls. I flashed original rom etc but forgot to put original radio back on. They never noticed and I got my phone back fixed. But this is a BIG RISK.

Ditto.
Is there anyway of fixing the corrupted radio? is there no way to "re-write" the radio bootloader?
obviously the radio bootloaders have changed over the different versions of the roms so why cant we "re-construct" the bootloaders in this fashion?
Referring to :HERMES Bootloader 1.01 MFG (WIKI) I cant use the "Flashing SPL-1.04 again" method because my radio is corrupted, so, I lose SuperCID, and don't have access to the lnb command; is there a SPL-1.04.nbS that we can use?!
If there is, would it allow us to use a radio of that version? or is this mute?
I've read several threads and the wiki several times, but, it seems this corrupted radio issue is something new that the wiki's are partially addressing, or, whatever has caused the radio to suddenly become corrupt requires a new method to fix it.
I know i've said I've read the forums, wiki, but perhaps I've missed something? Any assistance is appreciated!
I was wondering if any body had spl 1.04 on their mini sd card?
the method were you just transfer over to the mini card and click on it.
i managed to change my boot loader to version 1.01 this way.
if i can change it to 1.04 can i flash to radio with out it stopping.
thanks
just solved exact problem
Hi

This link you speak of is of high importance!! what were the commands? what was the link?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-280372.html
but after installing radio 1.47 it happened again in one call.
still in square one ....
No SD-card install works (stucks in GSM)
no shipped rom works
i want to ask if there is anyway to erase the whole radio sector ??
rerase command did not work on my hermes may be pof has some solution to this.

After lots and lots of reading the wiki's and forums over and over again I believe I may have solved the radio corruption problem on my 8525.
Just to let everyone know that I've tried flashing several SPL's; 1.01 MFG, 1.04, 1.10 Oli, 2.10 Oli, 2.60 Oli. Back and forth between the versions but finally I stayed put at 1.10.
I have/had a type 1a brick, but, not from flashing, everything was working great and then it just died. I tried Method 1 of Problem 5: Device shows NO GSM when booting more times then i would like to remember, however, nothing worked. When i tried a Radio only flash it failed at 0% and when i tried a FULL RUU it failed at 12/13% (GSM.nb). Convinced I had a $500 paper weight I got angry tried Method 2 of Problem 5 (see above link) ... strangely on the first try i was able to see the radio (1.40.30.00) and the protocol version as well...
I then thought this was too good to be true and then soft-reset my phone; BAM! "NO GSM".... I tried several times and then finally got the version readouts again... So i soft-reset into bootloader mode
Code:
typed: info 2
returned: HTCS
typed: task 32
returned: Level = 0
typed: rtask b
returned: AT-Command Interpreter ready <--------- YES!!!
I was then able to get enter the AT/Radio Commands so i did what anyone else would do.... FLASH ANOTHER RADIO!!!
I flashed the Radio from HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v2a and it just finished... I got an error at the end, and after the soft-reset the version stayed 1.40.30.00, but once booted into WM6.1 it immediately picked up the 3G signal... I hope this lasts longer then others have reported.
Should i try to flash another radio that is radio_bootloader 108???
*sigh* ... froze in WM6.1 reset then "No GSM" again... so then i tried HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a but it failed because I kept getting No GSM; so i did the battery trick to get version info's then ran the .bat as instructed and it perfomed the unlock; this time it reflected the radio 1.16.0.0
since I know what it takes to get the radio to flash, i'm trying RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3.62.502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe ..... i mean what do i have to lose right?
[EDIT] it worked... so lets see what happens.... [/EDIT]
[EDIT2] Radio is 1.54.07.00 & Protocol is 32.86u.7020.23H ... so it looks like its perm now... I've been able to send and recieve calls now too.... [/EDIT2]
after several hours of usage, radio no longer responds and WM becomes unstable and after a soft-reset I get "No GSM" ...
Question to Olipro, Des, pof:
Is it possible to log the beginning bootup screen to see what exactly triggers the "No GSM" vs the radio/protocol versions?!?! there has to be something that were missing... it would seem ever since radio 108 this problems have arisen... comments?
I followed the instructions on upgrading my Universal to Wm6.1 (Ranju's v7.7) which included downgrading the Radio version to 0.00.00. Upgrade went fine for the most part but Bluetooth isn't working now and when I try to turn it on or discover another device I get a "bluetooth hardware error" message.
My radio version still shows up as 0.00.00 as there was no radio.bkf file in Ranju's update (I'm assuming) so should I install a new radio-only ROM and if so which version and where to find? I did a few searches on the forum but ended up going round in circles! Should this solve the BT problem?
Also can I just install the new radio ROM "on top" of the WM6.1 upgrade or will I need to do it all over again?
Just to let everyone know, after much reflashing and rebooting of both OS and Radio, I finally managed to get it to work by stopping the Extended ROM installation adding on all the O2 crapola after the initial ROM install. Might be useful info for anyone else having this issue in the future ...
i dont understand what its the O2 caprola, what did you do exactly because i have the same problem after i upgrade to WM6
Hi i have a HTC TD device and I am traing to update rom from 1.93.401.2 to 2.03.401.2 but not sucssesifuly and at the end of update update utility shows this massage : 270 update error , the image file is corrupted, please check youre update utility.
This is frustrating because i tried all possibilities to fix a problem and still nothing, does anybody have any expirience with something like this to help me thanks a lot.
have you tried downloading the rom again?
Is your device locked by provider? If yes, you have to hardspl.

I seem to remember that error 270 means that you need to udate your bootloader, Try flashing an updated HardSpl.
And remember olinex has two spl's, one for gsm and one for cdma, they are not interchangeable.
thanks
Thank you i solved my problem i have know that olinex is for gsm and cdma i am fixed with hard spl 1.34 and now work perfect and after this long problem resolving now i know everithing about rom because i have try everything THANKS A LOT AND STAY GOOD AS WHOLE THIS SITE IS THANKS AGAIN
Error 270 when flashing to 2.03 stock firmware
I had the exact same problem. I went out on a limb and try something different and it worked! When you have just completed a fail upgrade (you see the 3 colored bars on your phones screen) quit the firmware update software, soft reset phone, re-connect to computer, and immediately flash to hard spl 1.34 signed. When finished the phone will reboot to and viola, you will have the latest firmware installed. At this point you can put back on the latest spl (1.40 I think) so that you can load custom ROM's. Just remeber if you want to get back to the latest stock ROM from HTC you have to rollback to the 1.34 SPL. Hope this helps peeps.
I try to install a radio version because i will like to upgrade my firmwire to 6.5 and when i start flashing the radio my diamond stacked in the restart (0%).I have already install Hard SPL. Please if someone knows what i do wrong ,tell me!!!
