Problem Rom Update - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Please help me,
I've tried a rom update. But uring the update my phone
stopped.
All I know see is a screen with red/green/blue and white boxes. On the screen it says Herm100
My phones does not respond to soft/hard reset. Also if I want to sync it, it does not work.
Can anybody help me fix my phones? All ideas welcome!

Probably you've flashed wrong or broken ROM image. Fortunately bootloader is still alive, so you can easily reflash a correct ROM.

thnx,
but was is the correct rom then?
I've already tried to flash a new Rom but I cannot connect to Active Sync so is gives a error.
I've included a picture of my phone.
The text on the phone is:
Herm100
1PL-1.00
HERM100 MFG
SPL-1.01
At the bottom is says serial.
Could you please provide me with the correct Rom then?

Please correct me if im wrong but is that not a picture of a HTC Hermes??? I didnt even think it had been released yet, let alone any ROM updates?

Whatever it is, it ain't a universal
The hermes looks slightly different from the pix he posted:

I think they may be older pictures. These are newer ones i believe, with the two extra buttons:

well in your first post you said you were trying to do a ROM update, which file were you using to update...was it actually for your device? at what point did the update stop?

the friend from whom I bought said I should do Rom update
So I tried the update of the Universal.

Not gonna work. You need the rom for your phone, which AFAIK hasn't been released yet.

Agreed. Which means you will now probably have to wait until the device is fully released so you can download the proper update and get it back up and running again

Considering that a prerelease of the HTC Star100 fetched 1700 dollars on ebay recently, I think you might have missed a business opportunity by flashing the wrong rom

oww.. but can't get the right Rom from my friend who's phone is working? in order words can I download his Rom?
When its possible than how do I do this?
eventually when putting the rom on my telephone, what a about the active sync connection that doesn't established?

which ROM did u use to update? Did u take from xda FTP??

iep, rom upgrades are available for your Hermes:

Also some useful information if your phone is still a brick:

downloaded it yesterday. gonna give it a whirl now
much beter than old rom
ill keep this and play...for a bit
lol i already had this version preinstalled on my replacement phone
If theres still problems with the link just follow it, then select 'choose another phone', select HTC > Touch Diamond on the drop down menus, select 'Phone Features' on the nxt page and then 'Download Latest Software'.
Maybe a good idea to bookmark the section for the diamond as is reasonably difficult to find and maybe useful for any future updates.
Hope this helps
Thanks

bluetooth problem

I have a problem with my diamond I can't activate bluetooth.

Maybe your bluetooth is broken...
try a new rom, 1.37 is so old. If your bluetooth doesn't work on a newer rom, then I don't think you will be able to use your bluetooth on any rom. Or, maybe you're not doing something right.

If you just bought your phone you might be able to have it replaced or if you can flash the original SPL and rom, maybe you can get service from HTC. The diamond is less than a year old so I doubt they would need a receipt.

Unknown... if you are getting a "hardware problem" message then it is probably safe to say there is a hardware problem. You should try to contact Tmobile UK and maybe they can arrange for service for your device; you might have to mail it back to the UK. If you can reproduce the same error on several roms, then it is most likely a hardware issue as all roms use the same methods to interact with the bluetooth hardware.

That would be a good idea. You should be able to find the files you need here on the board. I will help you look. I am thinking the wiki.....
Before you do, though, try using another rom first. It's possible that the rom you used might have some bug(s).
Try dutty's or AZTOR or the rom I have been using while I wait for something better, itje's Touch-It Experience RC1 (I like this rom the best so far... my own opinion though).
AFTER you install the stock ROM and stock RADIO, follow this link and follow the instructions closely:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2324837&postcount=20
If you can find the original Tmobile UK ROM, it will have the radio with it. Then you just need to follow the link above to replace your SPL.
You might be able to find your ROM here:
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=2&dl_id=483
Enter your S/N and you can download the file.

Original, up-to-date Diamond Rom

Heey people,
could someone please tell me where to get the latest official rom from HTC?
Cus i have a branded version of the Diamond, so i cant download it from their site.
I hope one of you knows where to get that latest version without having to use the serialnumber of my phone, because that serial number doesn't work.
Thanks in advance!

Okay, I need to apologize because I didn't see this post was on the forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=413910.
But 1,93 isn't really that up to date, is this the only post containing original roms that you guys know off, because i've used the search function a billion times by now, with a dictionary full of keywords, but i haven't found anything higher than 1,93.
Thanks in Advance!

I'm not saying that those custom roms suck or something, i LOVED using them, really! But im thinking of selling my phone, and i don't want to sell it disfunctioning.
So, please help me out haaha

That's an earlier version than the shipping ROM for those phones, isn't it ? The PC10IMG.zip file was posted here some weeks ago.

But I did root, S-Off and flashed Overclock modules before doing a system backup.

No, because of the changes you've made to it.
Speaking of, I need the 1.34.707.5 RUU that came with my phone. This version is kinda sluggish. Slower than my desire. wish i didn't try to hack it without a ruu to fall back on.

Might be worth asking HTC for one ? I don't see why they shouldn't give it to you. No harm in trying, anyway.

I'm pretty sure that's where all the RUUs originate from. Maybe tell them your phone was acting kinda weird and you tried a "return to stock" but that wouldn't work, so you want to try flashing the ROM again to see if that helps rather than sending it back ?
You can open a support call via email on their website. You have to supply a serial number, so they probably won't ask too many questions and might even just give you an RUU.
Work asking, anyway ? Maybe someone else can think of a better story, that was just off the top of my head.
I'm ****ed. Of course I didnt tell them I flashed an older ruu rom.Their reply is:

ok, well it was worth a try. Is there something specific in that ROM that means you couldn't use give the standard European ROM a try ? e.g. particular Asian languages that you need ?

I have got an idea. Tell them you are running a old version(you get this phone from your friend, and you didn't know where it's from), like 1.34.4xx.x
and ask for 1.34.708.5 or newer
see how they reply
edit: I have post HK 1.34.708.3, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=860430
hope we can get 1.34.708.5 or newer
sorry i'm just curious if you're able to flash this over to the g2? trying to find a chinese UI for the g2

[Q]Desire HD Latest Software Build?[Q]

Hi there XDA, I've asked a similar question to this before, however since then some things have changed and it's got me wondering, what the hell is going on over at HTC with these software build numbers?
I recently aquired a replacement phone from Orange UK for a Desire HD. The software version on the phone I sent to them was 1.32, however the phone I recieved was running a software version of 1.72, I know for a fact that when I sent that phone to them, there were no updates available, and the thing is, it's a door to door thing. Both handsets are exactly the same, they are both de-branded yet have an Orange logo on the back.
It's sorta fustrating because I know that one of these builds i clearly the one I should have, but I don't know which is which, would someone be kind enough to explain and point me in the right direction of the ROM i should flash? Thanks, and btw im in the UK.

If you want to root etc it would be easier on the 1.32 version but is still easy to do on the 1.72 version, you just use a different approach.
All the answers you need are in the development forum. Don't need to put a link here for you, it's not hard to find. Alternatively, use the link in my sig.
What ROM you SHOULD flash is up to YOU. YOU decide what one YOU like the most.

Your in luck, if you do not want to root, and have a unbranded handset you can have official HTC Gingerbread. An HTC RUU with the upcoming 2.3 release was leaked.
