Hello,
I got my SPV M3100 about one week ago. Was bought from Orange so only Orange sim cards were working. I used HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a to unlock it. (and superCID). That was the only modification I did to the phone.
My phone is freezing at least 1-2 times / day and I would like to upgrade the ROM. I was thinking to use the last official ROM from Orange (this one).
Info from bootloader screen:
HERM100
IPL-1.01
HERM100
SPL-1.40.Olipro
Device information
Operator version: 14.123.10.702
ROM version: 1.23.70.2
ROM date: 08/14/06
Radio version: 1.16.00.00
Protocol version: 32.53.7018.01H
Do I have to do anything else before running the official update from Orange?
Thanks
Do you mean anything else besides read the wiki and other threads in the forum that would point you to places like MrVanx's guide?
Seeing as it's an official ROM from Orange, you won't invalidate your warranty by installing it, so you should be safe to just download and run.
But why would you want a (legal) copy of WM5 when the (slightly murky, legally) copies of WM6 on here are so much more FUN!!

Read the wiki & the forums because the RUU included in the rom you want to install is not compatible with the SPL you have, and your next question will be... "I get a USB communication error..."
Thanks all for replying.
Should I follow this guide ?
Another question...if the phone is superCID doesn't that means I can try any ROM i want?
Please guys, I just want the last official ROM from Orange on my phone without bricking it.
Please let me know what should I do? And don't tell me to read wiki, I'm reading it since I bought the phone but it's not very clear for me....What should I do first ?
Surely if you only want the latest official rom from orange, then the people to talk to are.....Orange. (But as you have played around with your SPL already, you should see Pofs advice)
This site is really for solutions that go beyond the official releases.
I decided to follow MrVanx's guide. Everything was ok, I'm at page 5 now.
Please take a look to this picture and tell me if I have to select HERM200 or HERM100 on device option.
If I go to setting - device information - identity I see HERM100.
Thanks

yes, that is your answer - select HERM100. (although, I am not sure that it really matters.)

It matters if the device is not supercid or doesn't use SSPL / HardSPL, but you can use wilcards on the CID, so for example to make a NBH valid for all hermes models you can label it "HERM***".

Hey all, Leaf Wireless, the new agents for HTC in South Africa seem to be on the ball. They have just posted the second ROM update in 3 weeks.
This one fixes a few issues including a voice message notification that was not on the older version.
Pof I can't get onto the ftp site at present. The username gets rejected. Have the last details you gave me changed?
Rom Version: 1.35.255.2
Rom date: 11/14/06
Radio version: 1.18.00.10
Protocol version: 32.55.7018.01H
Ext. rom version: 1.35.255.102
Enjoy!
Since this posting HTC Europe have announced a new ROM for HTC TyTN devices for release at the end of Jan 2007.(See my post elswhere). So before you go updating your ROM's with the ones presently available-hang on for a couple of weeks. I believe from my sources that this one is worth waiting for.
This news I got directly from HTC Europe and was confirmed by our local distributor. (who is pro-active!)
HTC claim it will resolve " all known issues"

I will add the details on the wiki after a while....
Thank you!!
Looks like the South African HTC distributors lead the way in updates for the TyTN.
Maybe you can advise what's changed on this latest ROM update. - The voicemail notification is great - no more missed voicemails.
I had no problems in flashing the ROM and I am a novice!
Good luck.
Basil
Leaf Wireless South Africa rocks!
I am having a look at it now, but I'm at work and have not much time, at first try I saw that bootloader version has changed to 1.09 and Build date for this bootloader is "Nov 7 2006 22:59:17".
Will post details when I have more time to look into it.
Thanks Pof. I will be interested to find out what updates have been included. Nice to know that you work for a living!
Ha Ha
Great news!
Hopefully bootloader 1.09 won't mess up Super CID, from pofs great unlocker ... keep up the good work!!
excellent
hopefully its AKU3.2......
patience is running thin
I have just installed this twice with my super cid from Pof, and it keeped the super cid status.
sweet,
is the AKU still 2.3? or is it 3.X ?
Its still 2.3, so we still have to wait for 3.2
Any initial feedback on the performance of this ROM compared to others?
I'm thinking it might finally be time to bite the bullet (getting tired of waiting for an officially released TyTN ROM) and upgrade...
can anyone,who update this rom,tell me,if we can bootloader downgrade to 1.04?
Hi
If I install this rom in my
softbank X01HT this will turn the SID lock again ?
If yes.
I can still downgrade the bootloader to 1.04 with
'Extracted 1.04 bootloader-only upgrade' and then use the 'HERM_UNLOCK v2a.exe' again
Thanks
Adriano
It seems that once bootloader 1.09 is installed it is impossible to downgrade it even with the firmware with the same CID as a device and lower version numbers. The radio stack and the rest downgrades fine, but bootloader stays 1.09. Damn... Should have followed the unlock procedure while had 1.04.
this mean that if I install tjis rom and my phone don't work with Softbank Sim I can't reinstall other type of rom again?
correct?

Yes that would appear to be the wise thing to do! Unlock the phone and set permanent SuperCID with Pof's v2.0a unlocker, then try this rom. The phone should stay unlocked and superCID will stick.

You can reinstall other types of ROM with the CID matching yours, but even if you do your SPL won't be downgraded. I just confirmed it by reflashing two slightly different WWE ROMs - Bootloader stays SPL 1.09 no matter what you do!!!
UPDATE: Upgrading to bootloader 1.09 also means that Radio-only ROM upgrade is also out of the question.
Hey all,
I have just purchased an iMate JasJam from Telstra (was a cheap display model) and i have signed up to three mobile. I want to access planet three and do everything as if i had brought the phone on three.
Can i just install the Dopod 838 Pro ROM?
Can someone post a link to a Dopod ROM? as im not allowed into the dopod website due to me not actually owning a dopod!
Any help greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Geordie

To use planet 3 all you have to do is type three.net.au in ie.
before you can do that you will need the settings for 3services, 3mms and or 3netaccess configured. There is a tool that does it on wm6. link is below, you can try it for your WM5 rom. The dopod rom will only serve you to remove any telstra programs. If the cab program below doesnt work there is a thread which has the settings for you to enter manually.
*edit* the cab file has been removed from the thread (first one below) you will have to check back again to get it.

Dopod ROM for 3 Aus
Dopod have released a ROM update specifically for 3 in AU on 2007/03/28.
The version number is: v1.30.707.8 and it states as follows:
838Pro (WM5) ROM code for Hutchison ‘3’ network - version 1.30.707.8 This ROM code will allow you to fully utilize the Planet 3 services.
As i'm not on 3 (using Black 2.0 WM6 using Vodafone AU here) i havent actually downloaded it for myself and from the look of it, its not even mentioned on the Wiki so i cant tell you exactly whats different from the generic AU ROM v1.30.707.4 released on 2006/12/01.
If you cant find it anywhere else, maybe I could download it and get it to you somehow!
Cheers,
Chris

Hey mate,
Yeah, i cant log into the dopod site as i have an imate so it doesnt accept the serial number. If you could download it and post it on a filesharing site or something, that would be awesome. I know they are fairly big so i assume that writes email out (i have space, im on gmail)
Also, is WM6 good? where do i upgrade?
Thanks so much for your help
No probs mate, its uploading to www.megaupload.com now, i'll update this post with a link when complete. (approx 25 mins to go)
EDIT: Here is the link to the Dopod ROM: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OY2IJE79 (I'll update the Wiki with this link soon)
EDIT2: I have updated the Wiki with this ROM info. As i haven't installed it, i can't confirm the exact radio, bootloader etc versions however i believe its just minor changes from the previous release so have left most of the versions the same. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
As for upgrading, before you do anything i would read, read and read as much of the XDA Wiki as you can. If you havent flashed any ROM's on your JasJam before you will need to do this before uprading to the Dopod ROM as your JasJam will most likely still be locked down to i-mate ROM's only and the Wiki explains exactly what you need to do.
The link to the Wiki is here ---->> http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
As for upgrading to WM6, the same advice applies. All the information you need is in the Wiki or the Hermes Mobile 6 forum and as long as you read carefully before doing anything you should be right to go.

Hi can anybody on 3AU with the latest firmware from Dopod; 1.30.707.8, go to this web site; "www.useragentstring.com" with pocket IE and post the results from "your user agent string box" your help would be greatly appreciated
Since Dopod838 is now officially supported on X series and Planet 3, im trying to get Black 3.5 working with it completely.
Hey all, this is NOT a "howz to git to Windowze Mobiil 6.!!!!" post, but rather a question about "upgrading" a ROM. I am currently running TNT's Windows Mobile 6.1 Proffesional ROM, and I have just learned that there is any upgrade to that particular ROM, and would like to know if I can safely upgrade to it from WM6.1, or do I have to downgrade back to the Love ROM and then upgrade again. Heres my device history if it helps:
Device=Cingular 8125, SIM Unlocked(using Lokwiz 3.0)
Original ROM=Cingular WM5.0
Current ROM=TNT WM 6.1 V1
Heres how I upgraded it originally:
Got it home, used the HardSPL method to make my IPL/SPL 2.26.XXXX(so my device IS a G4), tried to upgrade to WM6.1...no luck. Discovered that you have to upgrade to the LOVE ROM first, so I tried that...again, no luck. So I then used the SoftSPL.exe to temporairily CID unlock my device I guess, and then proceeded to upgrade to the LOVE ROM, then to the TNT WM 6.1 V1 ROM.
Now, my device is working fine, and I would just like to know if I CAN upgrade to the new V2 ROM, and if what I did to get this far is correct. ANy help is appreciated!

My opinion is that flashing the LOVE ROM was a unnecessary step. I never do anything like that before changing ROMs (flashing a stock ROM and the like)
That almost answers your question except that having used SoftSPL your CID block is still locked and SPL knows it so you must either:
1- Flash SoftSPL before flashing the TNT
2- Flash the HardSPL to not worrying about it ever again when wanting to change ROMs (my option - if i had a G4)
hope it's clear
cheers
PS:
Use WST to check if you SPL is HardSPL'ed or not with "Device Info" option
"G4 SAFE" What does that mean???

I have a question about What G4 safe?
I uploaded a rom with HTCLogo.nb+Splash.nb+OS.nb (I assume that because there is no IPL/SPL it should be safe for G4????)

Absolutely right m8
As you can see from the pics only the IPL and SPL have versions depending on the DOC chip (G3 3.08 in this case )

Hi there, my first posting after reading here for a few days...
I got an T-Mobile Ameo which identifies its IPL and SPL like this (in Bootloader Mode)
ATHE100
IPL-1.00
ATHE100
SPL-1.06.0000
I am a little bit confused since I could not find any other person/posting which reported this SPL version of 1.06.
What do you think about this? Is it just normal or do I have to do some precaution measures before CID-unlocking, SIM-unlocking and flashing?
Greetings, forcemaker
Upgraded to T-Mobile WM6
... with the "original" Upgrade Tool, all fine for me; I also figured out that my PrePaid-Provider "Congstar" is D1=T-Mobile net, so I do not even have to SIM-unlock.
All's fine
So this low SPL version which I couldn't find in combination with "ATHENA" so I was guessing if this was a "too old" version.
CU, forcemaker
Hi
I also have this SPL with small differance SPL 1.07
Have you SUCCESSFULY unlock with OLIPRO unlocker
and this ""original" Upgrade Tool," from where is this
Best regards
just used the T-Mobile WM 6 ROM
Hi GSmart,
I did not unlock the device nor SIM unlocked, so I cannot tell whether it will do the job for you.
I used the ROM from T-Mobile Germany (Deutschland, short TMD). As I did not need any modification - I just wanted it to work stresslessly - I just flashed the ROM with the Update tool that was supplied with the download. As far as I got it, it is the original upgrade tool supplied for providers and customers(?).
You can find the original ROMs in this Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334512
I myself used "German - T-Mobile Ameo" which is:
http://rapidshare.com/files/73352583/Athena_WM6_TMD_2.35.111.3_By_Agent_Bignose.zip
So, if any modified ROM which needs unlocking, will install fine? Don't know. Maybe you could upgrade with an official ROM and automatically with the supplied SPL version and then do your personal upgrade.
But ask here in the forum, I cannot answer this.
Good luck!
1000 times thank you for your attention
Hi, I dont believe this has been posted before (I sent 3 hours looking around the web now!)
I have an Orange HTC Touch Dual and want to Manilla on it using a new ROM (Is it called LILLY?)
But I can't update my Radio ROM - I can't find an update for this that is high enough, Does anyone know how to update this? (Can't do it on HTC site)
If I put a new ROM on it will I lose Windows Mobile? or will it reinstall when I turn my phone on? and will it still be usable on Orange?
If anyone has some spare time could you gather some links to get the stuff i would need to perform what I want to do(I'm sure lots of other people are confused about this too), and maybe put together a small how-to guide.
I have been reading bits and peices from all over the web, but I can't make sence of it (one thing leads to another then I need this to alow that to work, but this needs to updated for that too do that etc etc.)
My device information:
Operator Version: 25.131.1.6110
ROM Version: 1.31.61.10
ROM Date: 10/30/07
Radio Version 1.58.16.27
Protocol Version: 25.61.30.03H
Thanks Wez
If the phomne is locked to Orange, then you will not be able to use any other ROMs apart from those from Orange. To get around this, you will need to unlock it first. Have a look and read in the CID unlock thread.
Once unlocked, the phone can be updated to any ROM and radio combination of your choice.
The official HTC WWE WM6.1 ROMs all have new SPL (bootloader) version 1.22 and radios (1.65.29.22 or 1.65.28.25) built in.
Have a look at the Hard SPL thread about the bootloader.
Do have a read about problems others may have encountered - go to the thread, and search within the thread for Orange.
Thanks dude, i'll look into it more.
I'm still trying to get over the size of this site its huge!
i'll take a look tonight when i got some time
