Cant upgrade my HTC to HardSPLv7

Hi Guys,
im trying to flash my HTC with HardSPLv7 following the www.mrvanx.org guide funny enough what happen is that the installer starts everything fine once the mobile device is going into the colored screen the installer waits for about 1 min. and then telling me that the installer is unable to connect to my device. Im using windows vista, and windows Mobile device At the moment I have windows 5 on the device

I have never been able to flash HardSPLv7 using Vista. Same result. Unable to connect to device once in bootloader, although the HTC drivers have been updated. It works fine with other roms or radio upgrades. I had to use XP to flash it. Didn't search for a workaround as I still can boot XP.

Really works for me... wath do you do?

Have followed the tuto. Everything starts as usual. The TyTN goes into bootloader, but then the installer waits for some seconds and finally displays an error. Using XP it went fine. So I didn't search any longer. But my Vista should be fine as I have already flashed several roms and radio versions.

Well, both are right, using Vista and following the MxVanx guide to upgrade HardSPLv7 dosn't work, cause last HardSPL force to use SSPL every time, and you can't mix two process...
So i think you can upgrade the HardSPL using Vista in this steps ...
1. Put SSPL in the PDA and execute it (tri-color screen) You can get SSPL from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293651
2. Connect the PDA and disable/kill WDCM
3. Download last CustomRUU from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298737
4. put last CustomRUU and RUU_signed.nbh from HardSPLV7 in same folder
5. execute RUUWarper.exe and select only 1.09 bootloader (cause this is BL version SSPL is based on). Don't select "It's HardSPL?" if you don't have previous version of HardSPL.
6. Next....
Good lock

The mrvanx guide is the best, the Vista help will enable you to flash, I do it myself no problem.

I wonder if it's possible to flash it using the sdcard method? (renaming the RUU_signed.nbh to HERMIMG.nbh?)

no its not... hence the term "Hard" in HardSPL... hence cannot he overwritten... you need to use SSPL when overwriting the SPL...

Thanks for the quick answer!
I was just wondering about it since I just can't get vista to upgrade my Hermes... (The HTC USB sync device doesn't appear in the device manager, even though it connects fine with the WMDC)
Well, I guess i'll look for a Xp box.
Thanks again

after I tapped the SSPL-HERM in the device, the boatloader goes to 1.09 des, but after I soft reset, it goes back to my old SPL.
your help will be very appreciated
thanks

Its for the sd card method, don't need pc.
You can also use this method to flash a new OS but just leave out steps 5 and 6. No need for sspl.exe after Hard SPL is installed.
Cheers...

I had trouble with v7 as well..there IS now a version 9...which worked great with vista 32-bit

Hard SPL V9 is a developer SPL, unless you are developing softwares and ROMs for your Hermes its not recommended to flash this. There is NO advantage flashing V9 over V7 for the person who just wants to flash. In some cases it actually caused confusion and problems. You are allowed to use whatever you want but there is a reason we advocate Hard SPL V7 and NOT Hard SPL V9.

hermes fiddling
I am new to hermes as I only used a wizard before. The HERMIMG/ Wrapper.exe spl update works fine. I got the same communication error 260 as shown above but I did not hit quit and the ROM flashed perfectly. The info on ppc screen should take precedence over what's on the PC screen. I also had to shut down all internal security features from McAfee, not just the internet firewalls.

What happened to my ATT 8525?

Hi all, first time poster, long time reader here. I've gotten many useful info from this forum (updating my 8525, before that, my HP H8315...) and everything has gone without a hiccup, never had a problem since my first PDA phone. However, today as I did a soft-reset on my 8525 (I had Pocket Plus installed, and there's a button to reset). Instead of seeing the usual 3G/ATT screen, there were 4 horizontal bars across the screens. The first bar is red, 2nd is green, 3rd is blue, and last is white. Within the red bar it says:
Herm100
IPL-1.04
Herm100
SPL-2.03
And in the white bar, centered, was the text "Serial"
What's going on? I tried hard-resetting, even taking out the battery, and it still won't boot.
A little background on my PDA phone: I upgraded the ROM a while back, and I also upgraded it to WM6. Nothing was done to it as of recently.
Does anyone know what's up?

Your device seems to be stuck in bootloader mode. Try flashing a current ROM then report.

Hi, thank you for your reply. But I don't quite understand what you meant by "flashing a current ROM"... Can you elaborate further? Thank you!
PS: It is just stuck at that screen forever. Won't even power down or showing a status of it going anywhere. If I lost the sync cable, is there anything else I can do to attempt to revive it or no?

try this
try a factory reset, with the phone off, press and hold the a and b buttons, these are the 2 buttons, 1 just above the windows key and 1 just above the ok key, hold these 2 down and power on the phone while holding them, follow the onscreen instructions, remember this will reset all of your info

Flashing=installing
If you do not have a sync cable d/load and copy ROM from this site and copy it to the sdcard, then install rom from card.

Hi, thank you for your reply. I tried that and it still went back to the original screen (red green blue white bars).
@Rojam: if I can't use the phone (stuck on that screen) how could I install/run anything?
Thank you very much for all your effort so far.

Great news, I just found out that the sync cable is just a standard USB cable. Now that I found the cable, where do I go from here?
I turned on the device and plug it in. The "Serial" text has now changed to "USB", however, ActiveSync hasn't recognized it yet (Not Connected).

Have you Hard SLP'd your device yet? Read the wiki on the Hermes. It will explain how to flash your device. You will either need to connect to active sync or run the file on your SD card. Check to see if the card is formatted corrected per the wiki. You will need to flash a OEM ROM. Hope that helps.

if you have the mini usb cable, connect it to your pc, activesync wont see it because it's in bootloader mode, activesync doesn't need to see it.
Just download another rom and with the phone connected showing the 'bars' screen, run the RUU program to flash the phone from your pc, it'll automatically see the phone, and just flash it, you should be good from there..

yeah, OEM rom for sure
and again, make sure you have HardSPL

Wow, I just want to say THANKS ALOT to everyone attempted to help. Man that was amazing
Anyway back on topic, I have a few questions (I'm kinda slow at these tech things so please bear with me)
1. What kind of ROM (version??, link would be GREATLY appreciated) do I need to flash now?
2. I've read the wiki thing mentioned, but I was not able to see where it shows how to "properly format" my MicroSD card.
3. I haven't "hard SPL" my phone yet (too late now, as it won't boot) so is it safe to flash the ROM? I think the boot-loader screen says my SPL is 2.03 or something (please refer to my original post)

Have same problem w/ my 8525. Plugged in to charger one day and turned on booted up ok. Tried everything before to no avail couldn't get off bootloader screen. Pull out battery to turn off then plug in to charger and turn on should boot properly. I have not been able to get it to boot up properly w/o plugging into a charger 1st. But works fine with this work around. Just make sure don't do soft reset or turn off w/o having charger available or usb cable. Hope works for you.

Mate, find the shipped stock rom. WM06 upgrade should also work as it should recognise the CID. Do a search on the wiki for "stock hermes roms", you might get lucky. Iy doubtful that you will find it on your carriers site now but if you post what your original carrier was you may find some love.
DON'T USE JUST ANY STOCK ROM.... You require the ROM that has the same CID as your original.
If you find the shipped rom, do as HolyAngel said but make sure its the shipped ROM before you put the Hermes into bootloader (tri-colour screen) the click on the RUU program to flash the phone from your pc. I'd also right click on activesync first and go to connections to untick "Allow USB Connection". Less chance of problems that way.
If you get it up and running (saying goodbye to all your contacts, apps and messages), make sure you download and install Hard SPL V7. Makes it easier to fix if stuff like this happens...
Cheers...

Here is the at&t official flasher/installer that I downloaded from at&t for my 8525. This will flash the phone to WM6 and flashes the radio to 1.54.07.00. I changed the location of where the file is uploaded to a place where it should stay for a while. Or you could search for "RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3.62.502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe" that is the name of the official file from at&t

The phone was on, and the "Serial Text" had changed to "USB" before I ran the RUU.

The only other thing I can think of, is trying the at&t stripped rom. I'm being too lazy to search for it right now, but I do know it's in vekyas 4 shared files.
You might be able to choose the bootloader in the xda ruu.

This is very valuable information that every new member needs to have, right of the back . They should know this stuff before they even start flashing or modding , so that they know how to reset the phone back if they screwed up.

The first file is SP_AllowCertificateInstall.cab do not extract the .cab just place on phone and run with file explorer to device memory then follow the other directions, may take more than one go on the whole process to get it working.
Good luck.

Waste of Time
Before anybody starts refering me to other "stikys" i have followed all the neccessary steps to do a hard reset and ran the sda unlock and i still get the error 270 corrupt file error. I have tried everything and still no luck. So much hype surrounds ookbas 6.5 and i have yet to test it out. Any help would be nice.

i did both of the SDA unlock and installing the SP_Allowcertifcateinstall over and over again and still got the error 270 at 3%. But before posting this, i did the sda unlock install, restarted, then did the Excalibur USPL- CID BYPASS (boht files attached)..and followed evrything in the readme file, then after getting the white screen, simply disabled the usb connection and then ran the romupdate and it worked for me..
hope this helps

if you like not to bite you to fix it via a memory card. changes you ruu_signed.nbh to HERMIMG.nbh. you know how he is and not as you write here. turn off the phone. and to enter bootloader using the buttons on the left side of the phone and right side. written on the keys is ok and the second is a button-down / power key. the two buttons pressed and the current bootloader does not start. when to place. so sorry. Sorry but my English is poor

It seems that you're using Vista or windows 7. Try to find a windows XP computer and up that rom again.

Some ports are opened!
Lemme xplain this... osmetimes the drivers of our pcs gets closed and opened constantly in some proceses and in the upgrade it happends so... softreset your device it must go to bootloader reconect your phone and try again... if not works...
Do the upgrade via SD: as the guy upper tell you change the nbh name as he says and copy the file to your CLEAN!!! micro SD 1-2 Gygas it doesnt works in MicroSD bigger than 2Gygas ok? insert the SD and reenter to Bootloader it beguns to upgrade... be sure your batt has enough charge... more than 50% MORE than that! i suggest.

Mine does the exact same thing everytime, on Windows XP, here is what I do now.
Run it, and when the phone gets to the red, white, green, etc screen, and says USB across the bottom, unplug the USB cable, and plug it back in, this works everytime for me.

it is easier and a lot safer to use sd card flash

thanks...
i'll try all of your suggestions... if nothing happens , hopefully not... what ROM is stable? ROM does not freezes up... thank you and have a good day.

nothing
I tried the SD card upgarding... after updating it froze up welcome part.... nothing happens... by the after the Updating Complete what will I do?

redo the same thing but first.... upgrade the stripped original att
wait till the bar reach 100% and start boots... then unplug the sd card...
perform a hardreset let it boot... the upgrade again with sd card wichever rom you want and unplug the sd card when the bar reach 100% and start boots... then when it is in welcome splash image... perform hardreset!!!
I will write this f·$"n leyend in my siggy!!!!!

helloo..
How do i do the upgarde stripped original att? and were can DL the file... and can i do using SD upgrade..

almost all the chefs (include me) we have at first post of our roms thread a link to it... just DL it unpackit rename it... and copy it to the sd inserted and follow the steps... i told you! oh if mine doesnt works, try yours... seems that works fine
oh charge your battery dude.

worst thing happened...
worst things happened... please help....

NO WAY!!!!!!​
You are not hardspled!!!!! what happend Tho you have unlocked your device!!!
Man how could you upgrade the SPL in that way!!!!!!??????
I think that your phone goes off because you dont have enough battery to upgrade.... or maybe its just that the SPL is not unlocked!!!
Man this is serious!
you need an XP you need your battery fully charged
try to get a new USB cable... and try to get a ROM that match to your Carrier and country... this is no good... check the Siganture of CRCinAU he has a repository of shipped original ROM.

go here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Available Original Shipped WM6 ROM Versions
or here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
search for your carrier and or language that match to your country...
and try to upgrade with the activesync!! not SD
Once you get it... enter to Bootloader and start the upgrade... make it on XP!!!! nad with many batt!!!... unplug your sd card and the sim too (dont think its fine but for prevent issues.)
how could you do it without hardspl!!! thats because of not read... and do things without ask.

No you didnt...
Well the PC gets an error so... why try to upgrade instead of try again the hardspl?
in fact is not the problem here who has the true or who cant read...
the important thing here is to know how you fon can be restored by the original shipped rom for dopod
so
try then one by one
we only need that the rom boots!!! to apply the hardspl.

sorry...
Sorry about the previous aligations regarding "reading"... I was so frustrated that time, bec my phone broken.... I do Apologies!... By the way sir just addup I saw a "No GSM" on startup... Thank you and have a great day..

basicly ive upgraded this unit and now have no gsm ive downloaded the software that i was advised but nothing works says files are corrupt or damaged , sometimes the link doesnt work . i need the factory rom for the orange spv m2000 i think can anybody help me pls
thanks.

since it seems to be the old problem, there was no need to open a new thread, you could have bumped the old one.
also, the answer is still the same. you can find shipped roms at http://xplode.tk
the fact that the wm2003 rom, offered in my tut thread, is corrupt, is aready known. i will fix that some time.

you cannot just download and double click it, i thought that was self explanatory. you need to right click the exe and extract it, in it you will find the ruu and the roms, then you take a custom ruu, like the Chef_Tony RUU from my signature and use that to flash.
also, since you are using windows 7 to flash the device, you need to install another driver and deactivate usb connections in wmdc. use d-two's tutorial on windows 7 flashing here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5456317&postcount=6
or simply use a windows xp computer and follow the tutorial in my signature.
ts ts, just doubleclicking the exe, if it was that easy, there would be no need for a 30 step tutorial

i had extracted the files to a folder .. anyways ive got more picks to show this error . after doing what was said .

done everything the pdf asked with success yet i still cant extract my orange rom as pictures above show.

you didn't do everything from the instructions, you are still using BAupgradeut.exe.
you were supposed to use MAupgradeut_noID.exe.
also, i don't see the TEST MODE watermark on your desktop, which can mean several things:
1. you use windows 7 32 bit and everything went fine
2. you use windows 7 64 bit and removed the watermark already, also fine
3. something went wrong during the installation or you skipped a step.
you should straighten these 2 things out before attempting to continue.
also you should put the device into bootloader mode before flashing, charge the battery to 100% and remove both the sim and sd card, just a general advice, i don't know, if you already did that.
the problem, the ruu gives you, however, is not solvable with any of the tips given above. the extrom from the rom you downloaded, seems to be corrupt. the extrom is the file called ms_.nbf and contains carrier-related cab files like a custom wallpaper, dialer skin and other useless stuff. here are some ways to get rid of that problem:
1. resize the partitions using mtty and flash without the extrom:
1.1 with a full battery and without sim and sd card, put the device into bootloader mode
1.2 disable usb connections in the wmdc
1.3 start mtty (look it up in the wiki or through google)
1.4 select wceusb or usb, 115200-8-1-N-N-N, press ok
1.5 hit enter, so it shows USB>
1.6 type task 28aa
now, the partitions are back to factory defaults, close mtty and disconnect the device, still in bootloader mode
1.7 delete the ms_.nbf or move it to another folder
1.8 in bootloader mode, start the ruu and flash the rom and the radio rom.
method 2 is easier:
2. crc errors appear during corrupt downloads, maybe your connection speed fluctuated, maybe you use a wi-fi connection which swallowed a bit or two, or the file was actually corrupt to begin with, try another mirror, or maybe even another rom, there are many different english wm2003 roms at xplode's archive, your carrier is not important.
2.1 flash it using maupgrade, bootloader mode, without cards...

followed you last instruction to the letter and all is GOOD
thank very much
