Hi there, i got hold of a Hermes yesterday and since that moment i've been trying to flash it to a decent wm6.1 rom.
but i ran in some problems.. first i flashed HardSPL 7. then i flashed the radio to 1.4x and even 1.5x and some roms. the last ROM i tried is the latest TNT.
but for some reason i keep getting crashes, missing shortcut links and when i reboot at that moment it keeps stuck at the bootscreen picture. this happened serveral times now and its getting on my nerves..
i already used MTTY with the info 8 command. and it only returned some "Reversed" blocks, none were bad.
Can someone please tell me if i am doing something wrong? or how i can solve the issue?
i already tried leaving it be for 5 minutes, remove battery, and did like 30 hard-resets already..!
help?
happened to me once
have you done a manual hard reset? at least i think thats what its called. where you hold both soft keys(ones above start/ok) and press the button in with your stylus all at one time till the white reset screen comes up..then just press R and SPACE on the keyboard.
now once it reloads and is finally done...flash vg3's at&t wm6 rom..once its all done flash your 6.1 rom of your liking..
its something to do with the memory i dunno but i just flash vg3's at&t wm6 rom every single time before i flash to another 6.1 rom and i've never had that happen to me again and trust me it happened a lot before..it never happens now
Yes i did do the hard-reset manually.
i will try the vg3's rom first thing tommorow.
I installed the HTC Diamond Home cab and everything was running fine but I messed up the pictures on it half were white and half were black so then I uninstalled that way I could fix that issue and when it rebooted it wont turn back on its stuck on the Windows Mobile splash.
And I have wm6.1 installed.
HI all,
I'm having some fun and games with my Orbit today.
I previously had an old version of black & Blue on there. SO today decided to update to have a go with some manilla based ROMS.
First I Tried YuE_v11.3_3.15.20755_Lite_M2D_WWE
Which seemed to work ok but after a while applications were being very slow.
So then I tried to reflash oop, but that seemed to fail.
I Tried to flash love, but it wasn't ever getting to the progress indicator on flashing, so did an SD flash of YuE which worked.
So then tried to flash Love from that minimal YUE and the device is being really slow, like gets to the calibration and takes about 5 mins to swap between screens.
What's the best way to totally clear down the rom and start again on this?
Thanks
I've now flashed the Official UK O2 WM6 ROM and still having problems. Flashed succesfully, but when it boots up, it just sits on the "Windows Mobile" screen and beeps a bit
Current State after O2 flash :
IPL : 3.04.0001
SPL : 3.04.0000
GSM : 03.06.90
OS 3.4.0.0
Any help gratefully appreciated.
Thanks
Hard reset the device, and while you're in the config wizard, plug in your device and flash to new rom. That way it's completely formatted and you'll have a fresh new install... hope it works mate
I did a hard reset, still no joy, hangs on the welcome to windows screen
I can access the Bootloader, but can't find a way to flash a rom from there, all seem to want it done once you've made an activesync connetion
flash YUE back via SD card flashing
I already tried that, flashes fine, but becomes unresponsive soon after
have tried flashing O2 WM5 + WM6 from SD, but still no joy.
It just flashes, loads up WM(5/6) then hangs there, beeping sometimes. Pressing the green button brings up the calibration screen. I sometimes see bits of apps, today screen, but that's about it, it's generally unresponsive.
Any suggestions?

A little update incase someone can help?
I left the battery out of the phone all night last night, and this morning the phone worked great.. for about 2 hours, then it froze. I hard reset, and it's back to freezing after OS loading now
What's up if you remove your MicroSD card ?
That makes no diff, i've tried flashing with + without the SD card (it's currently out), flashing from windows + flashing from microSD, all ends up the same way, with an unresponsive device once the OS boots.
2 days ago i was playing with my touch diamond and it held when i switched on WIFI (wifi was working fone for a year now). When i rebooted the phone froze at the screen where Touch Diamond is written and at bottom right some info regarding ROM/Radio/SPL etc (R 1.09.25.23 G 52.51.25.26H D 2.03.00.00).
Tried many times but couldn't boot it . Just when i was about to get hopeless it started booting if i hold volume down, enter and press reset pin on the screen still taking too long. As i had stock HTC ROM so i upgraded it to the latest to see if it solves the problem. After upgrade phone would still boot randomly by trying the Reset pin and the mentioned button but after a few trys that also stopped working.
Now the phone is stuck on the same black screen, i can only resintall the latest Rom and All the way mentioned on the forums dont work for me i have tried signed unsiged soft and hard spl or direct Custom ROM upgrades but nothing goes beyond 0 %.
All the SPL upgrade articles require to copy jump spl. exe to the phone but i can do that as i am unable to create a Active Sync relationship (Eventhough i have tried upgrade by manually going into the tri color screen by holding volume down button while booting it).
The Hard Reset option allows me to hard reset but has no effect on the phone's condition.
anybody who could help me out here?
I've been running my own custom ROM, based on the official T-Mo win65 ROM and twice in the last two days, my phone has hard reset itself! The first time, it happened programs would not launch all of sudden and the program files directory was empty when I launched file explorer. After a soft reset I got black screen with white text saying my phone could not boot because of some problem and had to be reset. The phone then did a hard reset. The second time was this morning. My alarm (which is on my phone!) did not go off and when I woke up, my phone was on the initial setup screen.
Has anyone experienced this with any phone?
I've found a few threads detailing the exact same problem, but no definitive answers...
Touch Diamond - Hard Reset Issue
No bad block, but randomly hard reset with WM 6.1???
Fuze random hard-resets
Touch Pro Hard Reset While Charging
The last one was interesting, as both times my phone reset, it was charging. My custom ROM has an unmodifed 21881 SYS and XIP, and an OEMdrivers with the custom 1% battery driver by chainfire cooked in.
I'm thinking it might just be bad hardware. For the time being I've reverted back to the official T-Mobile 6.5 ROM and official SPL.
if the phone doesn't hard reset for a week or so, I'll try my custom ROM again, but with Quentin's driver instead.
