Need hepl guys PLEASE

Hi, i have been trying for the last month and a half to try another rom on my hermes,but it seems i can't.
i have flashed many Roms and i never had a problem in doing that till the las time when i tried to flash into the new S64.
every time i try flashing into any new rom it rejects me by giving me the (ERROR 260) telling me i'm not connected and the USB cardle thing, but all of my connections are correct and my ActiveShyn is up to date and i was always flashing roms in the same way.
Some seniors here when i have mentioned that told me that it seems i have flashed or reflashed the Hardspl, so i'm trying to reflash the Hardspl, i have tried endless times but it keeps telling me the same althought i have downloaded almost every hardspl that is available in the xda site lol.
what i'm requesting please if possible to direct me in the steps that i need to make my hermes functional again please i'm sure u understand what i'm saying.
some have mentioned that cause i still have the
herm100 i can't flash it into another roms but that sounds a bit strange lol.
I know that i have still herm100 (old) and my ipl-1.01
and spl-1.06 but i think that dosn't matter in my opinion.
Please i request if u can help me in fixing my problem by providing me the steps by simple words and if you have a fresh zips of hardspl coz i'm so confused which one to use, it would be nice to hear how to do it step by step.
i really need your support and excuse me if i'm bothering u with this kind of request but i didn't know where else to go and ask.
My Current rom is the HTC_Hermes_S64_WM_6[1].1_HTC_WWE_v2_30.03.2008 which is old and i would like to refresh my phone by a new version.
i was thinking of the new HTC_HERMES_S64_WM_6.1_TouchFlo2D_UC_ WWE v3 / GER v1 but i don't know if it would work on my herm100 cause i was told it was designed for herm200 and abouve is that true?
If not well there are so many more roms out there i would like to try but i'm stuck for the moment.
please again i wouldn't have bothered u with my request if i wasn't facing this problem.
thank u a lot and i hope to hear soon from u commrade.
Dayhauck.

have you tried to manually go into the bootloader and flash? You don't need activesync to flash like that if you're connected with USB. Also, from your SD card. Both have worked for me in the past.

Though you should have Hard SPL installed if you want to use the sd card method.

i have tried to do it manualy but i not much of a luck in loading the Hard SPL.
I really don't know what to do. i can't even f;ash to the original htc rom .
what else can i do?

1. Check your usb cable.
2. Try different USB ports in ur PC,
3. Check if the mini USB in Hermes is not damaged.
4. Check the bootloader if you have HardSPL installed.
5. Try SD method,
6. Read the wiki.

check out post 1160 on page 116 of this thread for sd card method for Hard SPL V7 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Cheers...

I had the same problem. If you can activesync with the cable then all you need to do as already mentioned above.
With the phone attached manually go into bootloader (hold on/off on right of phone and 'ok' on the left of phone both in while you prod the phone reset at the bottom of the device).
When you have the multicoloured boot loader run the update and it should work fine.
Hope this is some hepl

trying to flash to 6.1 getting error 202: connection

im getting error 202: connection. It is saying my phone is not connected, but it is. any ideas?
Thanks a lot guys. had some free time so thought I'd flash 6.1 since it was my original intention for getting this phone, lol

it just worked

Stupid question, do you have Active Sync/Windows Mobile Device Center installed and is it the newest version? That'd be my first thing to check. Without it your system most likely didn't install the proper drivers for flashing. Also I believe the service needs to be actually running on the PC and Dash...

okay i just got error 270. which doesnt make any sense because I ran the SDA unlocker.

okay, when I run SDA unlocker, it tells me that it cannot unlock my phone. Any ideas? I really wanna get 6.1 lol
edit: it says "phone is not unlockable"

could it have anything to do with my phone being a rogers locked s621, or would that make a difference? I can't do anything untill I app unlock it

any ideas? i really want to flash to wm6.1.

Did u follow this link i gave in previous thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2807194&postcount=485 ?
Quote from thread:
1. Transfer "SP_AllowCertificateInstall" to your dash and click on it to install it. (Folder 1)
REBOOT
2. Run "SDA_ApplicationUnlock" from your desktop, with your dash connected. (Folder 2)
REBOOT
You might need to run both a couple times.

thanks stylez. i think i tried once and it didnt work. ill try again in the morning when im home. would not having done this make sense why sda said my phone was not unlockable?
thanks for all your help

thanks stylez, i got sda unlocker to work with the cab file you pointed out. but now im getting the 202 connection error again, lol. and 1 time i got a 260 connection error. i just restarted my computer and am going to try one last time before bed. any more ideas are greatly appreciated

thanks for all your help. successfully did it this morning, and is up and running. The only thing not working is my data because in the connection setup, Canada isn't even in there, nor is Rogers, lol. That's mean guys
Anyways, if someone can help me setup my network settings for rogers data, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for everyone helping me flash my s621 Once I get my data working, my phone will be 100%

Installing Hard SPL from android?

hello everyone..
this morning I was intended to revert my kaiser back to WM 6.1,
I followed the instruction to put the ROM to my SD card along with KAISDIAG.nbh.
but maybe I chose a wrong rom, as the process goes, I just realize that the process was deleting my hard SPL..
now the text my 3 color display only says "SPL-1.56.0000"
but the android is still working....
so now my phone run on android without hard SPL...
could anyone help me? is it possible to install a hard SPL from android?
flashing from SD card doesn't works because I don't have any hard SPL installed..

There is no way at present to install hardspl from android, since we cannot run jumpspl, however you should still be able to flash a stock 6.1 rom using usb method.
Sent from my HTC Dream using Tapatalk

I have tried, but the process always failed with connection notification.It says that update utility cannot connect with my pda phone.
Well the problem is, flashing with usb method needs activesync connection with the computer. since microsoft activesync doesn't applicable anymore, I have no idea how to build connection with my phone. Besides, nothing seems happened every time I connect my phone with usb cable. Its just like my pc couldn't detect the device.
Should I install some kind of programs first on my pc? or am I miss some steps to make my phone detected by my computer?
I'm using windows xp by the way..

The CustomRUU still works for me if you boot the phone into SPL first (reset and camera+power buttons) then plug it into the computer and run the RUU (no activesync connection), so you should be able to flash a WM ROM, then you can sort out the HardSPL later
EDIT: Or does that only work for me because I have already got HardSPL?

yes it works..
the process goes, but only for 1 % . my phone reset itself and the notification on my pc says about invalid vender ID "this update utility cannot be used for your PDA phone, please check your update utility."
since the only stock rom that I found is .exe which is extract itself, I couldn't use The CustomRUU. Could this be the problem? or do I choose a wrong rom?
edit : I'm trying to install Factory Shipped ROM form HTC
RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship
Do you know where to find stock rom for kaiser? most of the post about stock rom leads me to wiki xda, which is not available anymore.
thanks.

Not sure if these will work, but there are links to original HTC and ATT ROMs here
Also at the bottom of that post is a link to some reconstructed original ROMs
I have no idea if these will work any better than the one you've already tried, but it's probably worth having a go

thanks for the link..
I have visited that thread before, actually the 1st ROM that I tried to flash is also from that page. Both original ROMs for HTCor ATT doesn't works for my phone. But thanks to you I just realize the link about some reconstructed original ROMs.
Well, My phone is KAIS-100 which is made in Taiwan.
I guess I'll try Chinesse HTC 1.56.708.3.
I hope this one will make a progress.
-----------------------------------------
aww... still not working..
with reconstructed ROM, the process stuck at 0%, give me error [262] notification : update error. The manual said that if this kind of error occurred, I just need to do soft reset and run RUU again. I have tried several times even restart my pc first, but still not working.. any suggestion?

Try to flash radio. If you can't do it i think that you have messed up the bootloader

I can't...
the result is same, I'm trying to flash KAIS_Radinly_1701909 or KAIS_RADIO_ONLY_1710901_Custom, I got stuck in 0% with error [262]
The text in my bootloader says
KAIS-100
SPL-1.56.0000
CPLD-8
So, is there nothing else I could do if I have broke my bootloader?

No one can help me anymore? T-T
(running to the middle of the street and shout "why God, why??")
So, the lesson is :
If you are trying to flash back to windows mobile, DO NOT use factory shipped rom. Because it will modify your hard SPL and downgrade your radio version.
If the process failed and your hard SPL gone, you will get stuck in half working android without being able to flash anything, including correct your radio version, or reflash your kernel to fix your panel setting.
correct me if I'm wrong..
well, I hope my experience could be useful for you.
Thanks.

You can extract the exe file with winrar and you'll have all the files including RUU_signed.nbh
Rename it to kaisimg.nbh and copy to sdcard
Don't know if you can install from sdcard but since it's the shipped rom it might let you.

thank you salac..
I also have tried that method, using winrar to extract exe files.
but still, no luck for me..
Flashing via SD card got me stuck at loading screen, and I also tried to use custom RUU to flash the files via usb but my phone reset itself at 1% of the process and gives me error message [294] : invalid vender ID.

SOLVED
Finally
after days of yearning..
I found a suitable WM 6.1 ROM for my kaiser.
My phone is KAIS 100 HTC P4551. Usually, KAIS 100 model is for AT&T but mine is HTC branded, so that's why AT&T stock ROM won't works and my phone was originally shipped for US, that's why most of WWE stock ROMs always give me error 294.
So, basically I have to use HTC WWE ROM for US and this is really gives me hard time since HTC US website only provide ROM for AT&T.
In case you have same problem with me, I have uploaded the ROM at rapidshare
and you could find it here.
Now, I can flash a hardSPL, fix my radio version....
and flash back to android..

[Q] Defy keeps restarting after unlock the screen

hi guys,
I hope someone can help me.....
today I install some app to give extra animation and crap but after I ve done it the phone keeps restarting after I slide the srceen to unlock it.
I have done a hard reset formated the phone and cache and still the same,
I have also tried to flash it but RDS came back with " unable to retrieve info from INI file.
sim card is in but there is still "no service" on,
I ve looked through the forum but non of the posts seems to desrcibe my problem.
cheers,
p.s I forgot to add that my rom was 2.51 uk as far as I aware
regards,

hi,
the 'unable to retrieve ini file' could be because of your usb ports.
however,
if you go to recovery mode( hold vol- during startup then vol+ and vol- simultaneously when you see a little green man) you should be able to get a menu which will let you do a factory reset( clear data) which should make the phone work.
cheers

hi,
yes and I ve done it twice already and still rebboting after unlocking the screen
ane other ideas??
I ve treid to dowload rom but it wont extract and the other one saying that about ini file.
cheers,

hi again,
were you trying to install a flashlight fix zip btw before all this happened?
if so, the only option is a full flash.
try it with a different computer but i think at this moment rsdlite is the only hope.
i know because it has happened to me quite a lot.
cheers

hi,
I thinking the same, however, every rom I download doesnt work,
and now stupid question...where can I get a uk rom from??
cheers,

just check the android development section for the defy,
there are plenty of choices for a uk rom.
download one and flash it with rsdlite from a computer with usb 2.0 .
thats the cause of the ini error apparently.
good luck.

hi,
any link please??
I ve not been lazy its just I dowloaded two already and none of them work,
and now even RSD wont find the phone...just great saturday hahaha
cheers,

http://m.cfa.aero/
credit to fritolays.
go to the last link. CEE deblur< download that.
for rsdlite, keep trying, youll get there eventually.
thanks would be appreciated.
cheers

hi,
I will keep trying and if it wont help then I will have to go to t mobile and change my handset again,
Thanks a lot amansth
.....right guys please RSD saying couldnt retrieve values from INI file, I dont have access to any other PC so is thre any other way??
I ve got one txt file in the folder with firmware with this number in 09a6752e6119bb69c02d02f06a68d17e maybe that just need changing?? I dont want to mess about with it too much cos I m just a rookie
thanks,
...... Hi guys,
After a 6 hour fight I finally managed to flash my phone and it works, old RSD for some reason wouldnt support the phone so I got the new one and I could sleep much better
The only issue is that I liked 2.51, not necessarily the whole blur thing but I still think software looks much better and for example, mail box wont open, not the google one but the other that Ive added. Market place looks quite old compare to how it looked on 2.51, for eg the buttons for apps,games and apps look like big grey brick where in the other one there where nicely "implemented" into the market website.
however, I could not load 2.51 on my phone because it would stay on black screen with white LED on. I ve tried couple of times and always the same.
maybe I m doing something wrong?? what are those 2.51 boot only for?? I ve tried to put that in first then the firmware and still the same.
thanks all,

hi,
sadly, downgrade to 2.51 isnt possible because you upgraded to the froyo roms, the bootloader is newer so it is impossible to go back.
still, the froyo roms are generally better but somehow they seem laggy sometimes.
hopefully since motorola is pushing beta builds and the actual froyo release will come out around april- may you wont have to stay with the blocky icons for long.
