Hey guys,
I was using Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex to flash b4 installing the new rom. it is showing 100% done and my phone reset, and all look fine...
however when entering bootloader screen it is showing me the version as 1.34.00 (sth like this), and check from the rom in the setting of the phone..it is still 1.34.xx (the original rom).
I was following the steps from some posts in the forums...but still the same..
Can anyone please help? sorry i am a newbie to pda phone...
Thanks again guys
can you follow the steps here exactly and let me know the result?
hard-spl upgrade guide
I have a similar problem. When i made HARD SPL everything is ok, but when i try to make a ROM update there is an error massage on the screen. I tried with 2 or 3 ROMs and always the same ****... I downloaded the official one and it's the same... I made printscreen here it is ---> http://img29.picoodle.com/img/img29/4/7/2/f_gggm_0346e0b.jpg any ideas ?
maybe you installed the rom using sspl and hard spl did not install when you tried to install it. Not sure if this is possible.
Let check the Hard-SPL installed:
press volume down and soft reset (small red button) together and keep until comes out the 3 colored band in the screen, read the Hard-SPL version, it must be 1.40.
Let us know, ciao.
that's the windows error message saying it needs to close.. what's the error message the RUU gives.. it should have a number, or description of what happened. sure your download is not simply corrupt?
Well I have downloaded it 3 times already and every time i tried to make ROM update after HARD SPL my device cannot make upgrade and this error massage is on the screen.. I made soft reset after HARD SPL and there was no 3, but 4 colors on my screen...I thought that I ****ed up the phone, but for my luck I'm not hehe. BUT The f***in version is the same:
ROM version: 1.34.831.1 WWE. ROM date: 05/25/08. Radio version: 0.93.25.NS16. Protocol Version: 52.24.25.08H.
Please help, I don't know WTF!?!? That version is just NO COMMENT!
Thanks...
yeah can you please state the exact error message that comes up?
also, can you confirm you have Hard-SPL on your device.. if so, which version? (signed or unsigned)

Yea after i followed the steps it is working all fine for me. I think my original problem is the way to enter boot loader screen, but then during the flash of the signed rom (1.37.456.2) i found that the version for boot loader is SPL-1.40.OliNex .
Now all is working fine, thx guys!!!
1 more question, if i have the hard spl installed, flashed a new rom. What should i do if i wanna flash another rom? (let say, after RUU-1.37.456.2 i wanna flash 1.37.401.3). Should i sspl and hardspl and install the new rom? Or i just simply install the new rom without hardspl again?
Thanks again!!
no, hard-spl is 'permanent' on your device unless you manually revert to stock SPL or something..
just flash another ROM without flashing Hard-SPL again

Could you please stop flashing your site all the way here? Here at XDA there is a lot of info how to flash your phone, it is not needed to flash your site all the time here. One time is enough.
i'm not 'flashing' my site.. if one time was enough he would have already gone through the guide. i didn't even MENTION the site, either, simply gave him a link to the guide. if you take time to read the thread you'll find that it actually helped him get hard-spl on his diamond which is why the site was created so we can minimize these kind of questions and threads in the forums.. if you spent more time actually helping people instead of writing ridiculous posts like this maybe we'd have a cleaner and more productive forum
Thankz guys thatz helpful

not possible, at all, and don't try either, you could screw the device up if you try to flash a ROM we signed.

ya, ridiculous cause there is no step by step upgrade guide with pics in the forum, and yeah all the info was there, but obviously some ppl have trouble reading so i gave him the info he needed.

Hey people, since it seems to be getting quite popular heres the official thread for the Hermes upgrade guide ive written.
The guide has now moved to a new host so dont forget to update any links you use!!

Please read the guide word for word and you should be successfull in carrying out the procedures described.
DO NOT pm me if you have already posted in this thread, i WILL NOT answer you if you do!
Enjoy
This Should Be Made A Sticky Or At Least Added To The Sticky That Points To The Helpful Threads.
Cheers
Great guide. this should help the noobs.
Thanks for your work on these.
MrVanX,
This is nice. Though I do not need it anymore, since I had to read the wiki and all the posts to get to where I am now, I am sure it will help reduce some of the noob questions.
I do not regret doing what I had to do, since I learned a lot during the process.
But thanks for taking the time to make this.
Thank you for the guide, I really do appreciate it.
One question though after doing a search and checking the wiki.
I checked my bootloader and it is 1.10 Oli.
I was going to load the HardSPL v3 prior to upgraded to the 1.38 radio.
One of the choices of bootloader is NOT 1.10 Oli...does this mean I do not need to do the HardSPL? Or do I still need it?
Thanks in advance...and if I missed the thread I'm prepared to smack myself across the face 20 times in restitution.

You will notice in "how to upgrade HardSPL v3" the guide says "if your version is 1.10.oli or 1.11.oli select the BLUE OPTION". When you run the HardSPL v3 installer you select the force sspl option. OK?? (i changed the wording of the guide)
Excellent guides...I've updated my sig with new URLs..

What a great guide - would have saved me endless trouble when I started upgrading (including my brick - repaired courtesy of Vodafone ) - but then again I've also learned loads the harder way.
Can you just write a guide on Un-Bricking, Cooking Roms, Installing apps, Creating Cabs, Searching, Reading the Wiki etc, etc (Hmmm, now there's a project)
Only kidding, but maybe if we can link this guide and the Unbricking thread to be the first thing a new member sees when they sign up as a member to the forums we may see less 'help I'm a ****wit' threads
Excellent guide!
Just wondering, will you be creating a "downgrade guide" for those who wish to revert everything back to their original state (OS ROM, Radio ROM & bootloader) for warranty purposes?
Thanks!

SPL Link broken?
Hi, it might just be my system but the SPL download link appears to be broken
Martyn
Link fixed, thanks for the heads-up!
Sorry Radio link seems broken too.
Hi, sorry to be a pain but I'm following your advise and going through the guide step by step and can't download the radio.
BTW: The SPL worked a treat, I'm planning on trying the LVMS flavour.
The links for the Radio are all working fine, are you using Winrar?? You need it for opening the radio package.

V4 and not v3
Hi
I'm quite a noob, so I apologize if i ask for something already mentionned.
I'm on SPL1.09 after install of LVSW 03/20.
I want to install HardSPL v4.
- This means only the bootloader files of the rom will be modified. Am I right ?
I need to check the yellow line.
But do I need to check "Is it hardSPL" ? What is this for ?
Then, as I understand, if i install a new ROM with radio, it'll modify the SPL again ?
Thanx

Just been given a Vodafone u.k 1605(hermes),the digitiser was trashed so ive soldered in a new one.I would love to install Black 2.5 for T-moblie u.k which is my sim network.Do i just install this to the phone or do i have to take any other action first?The phone is unlocked.
Sorry,i imagine this has been asked many times before.I have seen mention of Hard spl's and other thing a ma jigs lol.
Many thanks Tony
You really have a lot of reading to do. So much that we cannot post it all here. It has taken an entire forum for all of the information. You need to start here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
Get familiar with what you can do. First thing you are going to want to do is update the boot loader so you don't brick your device. Read here for more information:

Do not "just install" ... ideally read the wiki first, and then follow instructions on Mrvanx's Guide. Upgrading is pretty painless and easy ... and the guide should keep you on track.
A ha ,i knew there would be more to it than that,not sure what a wiki is lol but looks like im gonna find out.
If someone could just give me a list of things to do before hand ill do the appropriate reading
i.e 1 upgrade the boot loader etc etc ,please dont go into detail a mere shopping list will do.
,thanks for the links by the way.

My subjective pick is Black 3.01 ...
Remember to go "Hard SPL" first, and that you need to upgrade your radio seperately.
Right just updated the Hard splv7 and my radio to 1.41.00.10,ive also flashed with black 3.0. Now i cant seem to get a wireless link to work or turn on my bluetooth?
Also does this mean i can flash any cooked rom?
Many thanks Tony
Update: it just needed a reboot and all was well.
Getting back to the above question-can i flash with any coocked rom now?
Thanks for all your help.Tony

generally speaking, yes.... but be sure you are flashing OS only (unless you want to upgrade your radio too). Most folks are putting out OS only upgrades now, but some replace the radio. once you are hard spl and no longer a flashing virgin, it becomes second nature.
Thanks for everyones help,all sorted,nice one!
Wow what a refreshing read. A noob explaining himself and asking clear questions and members helping him out in an open and non-judgemental way...
Well done everyone!
...and no flames...
Kudos go to MrVanx for those incredible guides.
Yep superb guides and a very noob friendly thread,thanks again peeps.Flashed to a couple of different roms today to check them out.
Hi all, new to all this.
I have spent the last 6 days scanning the forums and wiki about upgrading to the offical rom for the trinity to WM6.
I have tried super cid and sim unlocks as well as Hard SPL and many other tricks and advice from users.
None of them seem to work.
Does anyone have a real idea (a proper technical answer) as to why the progress stops @ 28% on this update and not on any of the cooked roms?
I would really appreciate some help on this.....
Thanks all

my guess is something about the ipl or spl, since after you remove those and put it in a modified RUU it works..

And dont hold me responsible if this update fails for you.
It worked fine for me.
Spl and Ipl are removed , and splash screens changed to htc screens.
Thats all , so it still has latest radio and extrom.
I advise you to soft reset when you first boot your trin and see the screen that says customization will start in 3 seconds.

If you don't want the possibility of errors, then don't mess around flashing your device, leave it as it is. Read the stickies - there is plenty of information to enable you to make a decision
Thanks for no help. Much appreciated.
At the risk of being told off for encouraging you
A search "Ignito hardspl" of the Diamond root forum produced some good threads of which
My mini TUT is one.
Admittedly not a full ROM flash but the principle and Hard-SPL are the same

Because my Ignito already had an spl 1.93. I used

I have flashed several times now with different roms succesfully.
Hope this helps.

HardSPL is a way to unlock your phone so that you can flash another ROM to it. If you don't run HardSPL then you won't be able to flash any other rom then the original one.
Plz start reading the links i gave you; i'm sure you'll figure it out as we all had to do at some point.
