Got a problem

Hello and good day to you all.
I have a bit of a problem and i was wondering is someone could help.
Recently flashed my phone using schaaps 3.54 also did the hard spl now says
ipl 1.04
spl 2.10.olipro
Very happy with the outcome but the camera stopped working (Twice this has happened now on second phone), so i need to send the phone back to orange. Everytime i try to go back to the orginal rom (downloaded from the orange website), the phone goes into bootloader and then then nothing PC says it has lost connection with the phone.
Guess what im asking is how do i put the original rom back on, or cant I. have searched the forum but either im blind or i didnt use the correct search words. Any help would be very greatly recieved.
Thank you
Andy

My First Brick..... :eek:

Hi guys. I have installed loads of ROMs onto my trusty hermes yet today, when trying to flash DuttyThroys Ultra Ultra Lite rom this happened: i downloaded ROM and installed it, it seemed to install fine, got to 100% and then came up with error message stating that Image File was corrupt. Now my hermes is stuck on the multicoloured bootloader screen?!?!?!? I have SPL 2.10. Hard SPL V7 HERM 100 IPL 1.04 (Dont know which of these is relevant to anythin?) .I have read the WIKI on repairing bricks but for my problem it says to reflash any nbh without radio. How is this possible if i cant get my pc to connect to my hermes???
Tried the method of turning off usb connection in active sync, removing battery, reconnecting to usb and running mitty (command SET 14 0) but nothing happens. Mitty says CMD error and active sync doesnt reopen the connection like the guide says! Man i hate this cuz i have now become one of those annoying noobs who has bricked their phone and hassles everyone for help!!!!
Have also tried to flash from sd card but nothing happens, flicks to white screen with LOADING... on it for 2 secons then flicks back to that wonderful multicoloured screen of joy!
Any help will be appreciated guys, cant live without my hermes!!!
Welcome to the fuc... nightmare world of the brick,i'mma in your same situation,now my Tytn is a piece of white stone,and it seems there's no reason to bring it back to live!
I can't stay without my Tytn i do a lot of things with it,Skype,SIP calls,Mail,Messenger,Memo,Internet......i'm in totally despair!!!

Brilliant story! both compelling and rich. But i have already explained that my pc doesnt recognise my hermes so how do you RECOMMEND i flash??
IT could be interesting to make the minimal effort to go and read the wiki.
anyway:

Better than just cry.

With the microsd card...
right, its looking good. managed to begin flashing (bar has stopped for ages but having read this is normal im not so scared!) using the SD method. Where my device wasnt superCID i had to use the matching ROM (Orange) to my CID (which incidently i dont know, just downloaded both Orange ROMs).
While im waiting ill try and help you TETSUO! (Im a noob so probably cant!)
Is your device SuperCID??? tell me as much as you can about your device SPL etc
dude, if u read my post u would have seen that i have tried SD method once (sing Black 3.5 not ORANGE ROM), im not crying and im grateful for any help but when i get advice such as 'flash a rom' im gonna be pissed!
And i have read ALL the page on unbricking!!!
It worked!!
One more question, as i have installed a stock Orange ROM do i now need to reinstall HardSPL v7??
Are you on a Win XP or a Vista PC?
XP dude, sorry should have said! and thanks
i went into bootloader, still says 2.10 olipro but when i try to update to new ROM (Black X RC)and pick autodetect it says it says unknown version, use SSPL. it never used to say this so i assume i need to install HardSPL 7 again???
with the tri colour sceen, when you plug the usb cable in does it go from serial to USB ?
what OS have you got ?
just my 2 cents hope it helps.
dude, i have got past that problem and have managed to install an Orange ROM onto it. i only need to know ow whether to install HardSPL v7 again!
sorry slooooooooooooooooow typing
good question hope there an answer,

just saw your post if ur device is hardspl you just need to supercid your device, If your spl is still showing hardspl and its coming as a error that normally happens to me as well just manually click spl 2.10 and tick (is it hardspl?}
To recap, i have now managed to flash a stock Orange ROM from SD card ( i think the reason it didnt work first time with SD is because device isnt SuperCID and i was trying to flash Black RC, soon as i used Orange ROM (my device is M3100) it worked. I am now back to a fully operational device. I wish to go back to Black but when i AutoDetect what bootloader i have it recommeds SSPL method. Before all my problems it would always automatically pick 2.10?? Does this mean i need to install HardSPL v7 again??
it was HardSPL v7 before all these problems, but im a noob so dont know if it still is?? would installing Orange ROM from SD Card remove HardSPL?? Bootloader still shows SPL as 2.10 oli

If you only flash the orange os.nb only then your hardspl wouldnt have changed so its safe to flash your device just manually choose.
If you want to flash hardspl again then do it on a precaution method
Mark,
First of all well done for getting yourself out of a hole. It seems quite difficult to ask for help these days without being shot to pieces even when you have first tried to help yourself by doing all the right things, which is more than can be said for some who come on here asking for help. So well done again.
Re your question, I would reflash Hard SPL anyway to be sure; however before you do that go to the Mr Vanx's guide on hard SPL (forgot the link but type in www.mrvanx.org and you should be taken there) and follow his instructions.
Good luck.

Help!!! My 8525 won't flash any more.

Hi.
I recently flash my 8525 to WM6 version 19174.1.0.0
Now no matter what I do, I tried to flash any other rom, it will
flash, but still came back to the same rom.
Can anyone have any suggestion?
Using IPL-1.04, SPL-2.10.Olipro.
During RUUwrapper, the "From" image, and "to" image always listing the same,
no matter what I do.
thanks.
Thanks for reading.
I please the ruu_Signed and Ruuwrapper into a new directory and now everything works.
download the HTC WWE Rom from the WIKI, flash your device, hardSPL it again then off you go with your next ROM...
lemme try and guess what went wrong here........you had both the old nbh file and the new nbh file in the same directory, and each time you were flashing the old rom onto the phone
sounds about right. Always read through upgrade guide and wiki pages if your a noob before you do anything

Orange HTC touch diamond ROM update

Hello i have a HTC orange Touch Diamond and i want to update the ROM as it is terrible. I am not that technical. can someone please explain what i need to do from scratch.
Thank you
I suggest your search the forum...
hello newbie
yes use the search button...it works really well
You first need to flash your diamond with one of the hard spl on this site and after you've done that you can take your pick from any of the roms on here
sorry guys i did look just didnt understand much. I am trying to use Hard SPL just cant get it to work.
same here
I have an orange htc Diamond and would really apreciate which files wouldwork. Everything I have tried stay's at Zero and ends up in an error.
Any help would be greatly ppreciated
root directory
to use hard spl i have to put a file in the root directory! but what is the root directory?
Hi James, your failing at 0% most likely because the SPL your using will not allow unsigned ROM's. Look for another SPL, one with developer edition in the title is good and works quite well for me.
I have an Orange also, the first thing to do is install the SPL then flash the radio (.05 is good) then get a new ROM!
Hope this helps
i think i broke my phone!!!!!
lol

You need to do the following
1. Download the Unsigned HardSPL 1.24 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408621 and extract to a folder on your PC. Make sure you have Active sync installed and setup with your Diamond. Run the Updater in the 1.24 folder. Once the Phone reboots reconnect with active sync.
2. Download any of the ROMS on here and run the ROM to flash the phone.
Thats it !!!!!

Hard SPL won't work
Hello,
From what I've read on the forum and also on www.modmydiamond.info, I gather I need to go through the Hard SPL step before installing any ROM.
However, after trying 2 different SPLs (hard_spl.120 and diamond_hspl_1.24) it still doesn't work.
I'm stuck at 0%.
Thanks

[Q] Flashing Original Stock Rom

Hi Guys I need your help.
I have a tilt 2 that I hard SPLed and installed Energy Titanium.
I wanted to put the original Stock att rom back in it since most of the roms I've put into it is still under development and missing a lot of stuff.
So i dled "Stock_SPL_Restore_087.zip".
I Task29 it first.
Then I got customRUU.exe with the RUU_Signed.nbh (from the Stock_SPL_Restore_087.zip) and put it into a folder. Then ran customRUU.exe from the bootloader.
Now on the bootloader screen I see SPL-0.87.0000
When I let it boot It just goes to a white screen with " ATT and World Phone" on it, and after a few seconds it reboots by itself again.
So my questions are:
Can I reflash HardSPL from the bootloader?
Can I still load a stock or any other rom to it?
Is this what it means to be bricked?
How to fix this issue?
I did read the FAQs
And yes I do get the 260 error.
Thank you for all your help!
Wow noone knows? : (
Can anyone help?
You should have flashed the stock ROM BEFORE the SPL. You could try extracting the NBH from the stock ROM and flashing that from the bootloader. I'm not guaranteeing anything, though. You should have followed the directions.
