Hi @ all...
so time has come i will return my phone to tmobile, because of the heavy problems with the slide-out-keyboard. i tried to solve my keyboard-problems with the orignal shipped rom, but i realised that it doesn't matter which rom i flash to my phone, the problem seems to be of hardware-ish nature...
so now my problem is: i want to fall back to the original state...
i want original IPL,SPL,OS,Radio, Boot, etc etc...
i tried to flash the "Original Shipped TMOB101" from the wiki, it flashed nice with CustomRUU...the original flash utility couldn't find my phone.
so i unpacked the exe and flashed the nbh with CustomRUU... flashed nicely, but didn't boot... first problem: whitescreen, second: hang on windows mobile screen, third: NOGSM... tried to flash newer GSM 1.43. this worked nice then, but isn't original... any idea how to get the 1.05.02 radio running? tried to reflash the complete tmobile nbh again, same result.
tried to flash with Vista, and also with XP, nothing changed...
next problem i assume is: how to downgrade SPL? and how to detect Bootversion? could it be, that i flashed some newer boot in between, because, i have always flashed newest radio roms, could it be that i flashed a boot together with a certain radio?
hope someone can help me... my device is also simunlocked, i hope they do not recognize it at tmobile. but i want to get everything else into original state before returning.

There is now an official wm6 update which you can use
it's available here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337163
If you're wondering if it's properly been released, it's also available on the t-mobile business site.
Shaks
shaks1979,
I have just been to the tmobile business site and I cannot find the WM6 update - please can you post a link to it?
many thanks,
Paul
the german t-mobile site dies not offer to download the upgrade yet.
flashed the new WM6 from t-mobile yesterday, and it works really great, but my keyboard isn't functional anyway...
has anyone an idea how to enable the flash-utility to overwrite the SPl and IPL? because my tri-color-screen reads IPL-1.01 and SPL-2.10-Olipro and this means, both of them have not been updated... any way to overwrite these rom-sections with the now tmobile ones?
so when finished upgrading (IPL and SPL have to be upgraded before i can go on) i will return my phone to a tcom store, they have to bother with my keyboard issue... my phone isn't a half year old by now... keyboard issues like this shouldn't be there i assume
greetings
and thanks for the new wm6 links.

Extract the nbh file from the T-Mobile ROM and flash it with CustomRUU. This will overwrite IPL / SPL
[...see reason]
which settings do i have to use with CustomRUU? do i have to select same radio-buttons as always? (SPL 2.10-Olipro/Is it HardSPL) ?
okay, so i found the option via try and error i had to use use: Force UNSAFE SSPL.
i have another question now:
as far as i know, t-mobile DE has not released this ROM to its customers via their website, so i have to flash my phone back to WM5 original rom, and bootloaders, because this new tmobile rom didn't make my problems with the keyboard go away.
my local store told me that they will send the device back to tmobile, and tmobile then will repair or exchange the device.
so if they send it back to tmobile, i uess i have to put it into original state, haven't i? cause flashing the rom causes loss of warranty, doesn't it? i hope they will not recognize, that i sim-unlocked it (did not touch the CID).
problem occurring: i extracted the nbh from the original shipped-archive and flashed it with CustomRUU but when booting NO GSM shows up, and windows stops booting during first bootsplash... sometime during second bootsplash... any idea? might it be that it was like this, because of olipros 2.10 SPL?

I wonder why you SIM unlocked your device?
The German Hermes never was SIM locked, so, there was no need to unlock it!
You will either have to Soft-CID-unlock or Hard-CID-unlock your device if you want to flash it otherwise it won't work!
What settings are you talking about? You simply copy the nbh file to the CustomRUU folder and run the UPDATE UTILITY in there! There are no settings, it works the same way as the utilities from shipped ROMs - simply follow the instructions on screen and do not plug out nor touch the device until the job is done!
So actually it is not a hermes, it is a MDA Vario 2 from tmobile, isn't it?
partly you're right, the device wasn't sim-locked, but net-locked, wich means i cannot use my second sim card from vodafone with it. so i had to unlock it.
(i tried without unlocking, the phone asked me for a certain code and no, it was not the pin-code from the vodafone-sim )
if you launch CustomRUU you are asked for the version of your SPL, at least this is what happens when i start it. if you cannot imagine what i am talking about, i will make a screenshot, for better understandings.
I had Hard-SPL installed, this is a form of SOFT-CID-unlocking?
with having Hard-SPL installed i could not boot the original shipped german TMOB101-rom from the wiki...
can i flash the old ipl/spl/radio/os without worries?
greetings
garfield
Within the CustomRUU folder you should see a file called ROMUpgradeUt.exe - this never ever asks for SPL, it is nothing but a modified FLASHING UTILITY.
i only have ruuwrapper.exe
i used this customruu v5.2 from olipro's thread
what customruu are you talking about? actually i never saw a file named ROMUpgradeUt.exe
where to find?
thanks for your help.

EDIT:
i have just found this:
NOTE: If your radio version is currently HIGHER than 1.27.00.00 then it is very likely the radio bootloader is version 0108, this WILL NOT allow the radio to be downgraded to a radio containing BL 0106 and will result in a "NO GSM" error. As with other downgrade guides this is NOT intended as a guide for claiming the warranty of the device having flashed components which are not authorised by the manufacturer or carrier.

Neon or Niki
Are you sure it is a Nike? If your in the US, it likely to be a Neon.
If, and I mean if, it is unlocked, then you flash whatever ROM that takes your fancy.
Do keep a copy of the original ROM to flash back in case something goes wrong.
Do HardSPL it, ie write protect the bootloader of the phone, to reduce the likelihood of making it a brick.

Provided the phone is unlocked, you can flash any ROM.
Things to do:
1) HardSPL it with 1.22 HardSPL
2) Flash the WM 6.1 ROM from HTC. It updates the radio 1.65.28.25 or 1.65.29.22 depending on version selected, and it gets rid of the T Mobile extras.
3) If all's well, give an alternate ROM a go. There are several in this forum, including mine.
Have fun.

Do have a copy of the original ROM. If phone is not unlocked properly, then these ROM flashes will fail, leaving you with a phone that is not usable. It will need the original ROM from your phone provider (t-mobile) to get it going again.
Hi i also have the same phone, a niki 200 t-mobile, and i have used the super CID unlock on the phone and changed to a lite rom, but i cant seem to get the radio to change?

apply hspl2, then flash any rom you want.
start by reading some of the links HERE especially the one marked
# [TUT] Flashing your First GSM 512LEO Rom (For Noobs) <-- A must read if you are new to this
hi,do i need to do this part ?
install a regedit software on your Leo e.g. PHM regedit also original PHM Site (offline at the moment)
--b: Run the regedit software
--c: Goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies
--d: Look for 00001001 double click it and change the setting from 2 to 1
--e: Reboot the HTC LEO
i installed on the phone but none of the files will open ?? phm regedit that is,and do i need to buy that program PSAS ?
There are some steps which you need to do:
- read into the threat of installing HSPL
it explains everything in a logical manner.
HSPL is needed to install a custom ROM
- read into how to install a new RADIO version and look which RADIO you need (wrong version can corrupt your installation)
- read into how to install custom ROMS. A few good ones are Miri & Dinik v19, Artemis and some other stable and fast ROMs with some eye candy
But you wished you hadent change to HD2? Why is that? I truely think its the best phone out there atm. You can have custom ROMS, Andriod/WP7/Ubuntu/W95 or 98 and Meego ports on your SD card wich work almost as a native system. There is no phone with that much OS options. Soon there will be a native Andriod install in the NAND of the phone. This phone is hardly restricted from modivying, I would say not at all. Which you cant say from other phone brands or the IPhone which in my eyes is like driving a Ferarri with a Driver and a communist with a gun (Steve Gay Jobs) in your neck .. it sucks like hell and your scared to death they'll brick you if you modivy something which you bought and can be considerd your possesion. The urge of controll pushed by Apple makes me sick and avoide buying any Apple products.

thats not nessecary when you update the stock rom, HTC updates those mods in their new updates so its not neccesary. If you continue searching you prolly will find some cabinets (WM6 installing packages what will change it for you.

Sir if you mean with "the updated rom from htc" = stock ROM 3.14 you need to know that stock ROM 3.14 isn't compatible with HSPL. (remove HSPL!)
hi,thats the rom thats already on the phone at the moment,ive only installed hspl2 on the phone and not tried any custom roms yet,if i install another rom on the phone do i need to install a new radio version also.
sorry if i sound stupid but im new to this phone & im finding it very confusing

There are no stupid questions, only the response can be stupid (Ow that's mean's me )
Okay lest start from the beginning.
In case you have a T-Mous device you can ignore my previous communication about HSPL.
But in case your devise isn't a T-Mous device; than you need to remove HSPL.
HSPL in combination with stock ROM 3.14 gives you only +/- 50MB of free program memory and gives lot of issue.
So in this case you need to remove HSPL before install stock ROM 3.14.
In case you use stock ROM 3.14 on a non T-Mous device you can't use HSPL so that means your radio version will stay 2.15.50.14.
Hope with this information it's more clear for you.
hi,the htc hd2 i have was originally on vodafone but the phone is unlocked to take any sim card now,i installed the very latest rom update on htc site which was the vodafone rom,the only rom it would allow me to install with my serial number,ive done nothing else but install hspl2.

In your case you have a branded device, and HSPL isn't working well in combination with stock ROM 3.14 you need to use the GoldCard Technique to be able to install 3.14 stock ROM correctly.
@Kurt unless by 'the latest from the site' he means the 1.66/1.72 rom,,,, he never mentioned 3.14,,,, in which case all the 3.14 vs hspl talk is just confusing the issue. He said he flashed the rom THEN installed hspl2, meaning it cant be the 3.14 rom, because hspl wouldn't have installed.
@OP enter bootloader, look by 'spl'.
If it says 1.xx.0000 or 2.xx.0000 or 1.xx.hspl or 2.xx.hspl then you can flash anything,. rom or radio, cooked or stock,(plus hspl2, of course) but not 3.14 roms. (You will get the 50MB issue kurt mentioned running a 3.14 rom on any of those.)
If it says 3.03.0000 then you can flash 3.14 based roms using SSPL.
Oh, and re: the warranty, , , once you have flashed the rom (forget 3.14 for now) you can immediately remove hspl using hspl2.exe, voila, warranty restored.

heh, two brains better than one.
hi,done nothing to the phone but install latest vodafone rom from htc site & installed hspl2 and thats all,its come up with vodafone splashscreen and phone accepts any sim card.
when i got the phone it has never been updated & it was so buggy,so i have the latest vodafone rom installed on it & hspl2 nothing else not tried any roms or radios or anything
hi,hopefully thats cleared up now,so i take it i can put a custom rom on the phone now ? and any recommended roms ? and do i need to updte my radio rom also and what one/versions should i install ?
thanks for everyones help i appreciate it, as this is hard going from an iphone to this complicated device
anynon 3.14 rom yes, and read the first few posts of any rom, it will advise what radios to use.

network lock completely unconnected to rom locked. even once it's unlocked, it is still rom locked, and the opposite is also true, applying hspl to a network locked phone will not allow other sims to be used.

Is there a HSPL for the AT&T Titan yet? Goldcard didn't work Trying to flash stock rom worked, but didn't downgrade SPL So, I diffinetly need HSPL for a branded AT&T Titan. Thanks
Take a look over here at forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1744253. You'll have some reading to do.
If you tried the SPL / HSPL on your AT&T Titan first (before debranding) then you are stuck without a fix (as of yet).
I was in the same boat and my Titan had a memory issue and caller's sound quality was horrible, so I got a warranty exchange from AT&T. When my new one arrived, I de-branded it first with the EUR ROM, then flashed SPL / HSPL and now I absolutely LOVE my Titan (prior, I HATED it). Now (after 6 replacements & no AT&T locks) I have a custom ROM and everything is unlocked and no caller sound quality / memory problems.
Sucks for me then...

Hello, if you actually checked the bottom of the guide I've written for this, it provides instructions on how to apply HSPL for your Titan, assuming you did all the correct steps on debranding it first
V. HSPL
i. Once confirming you have 2.5.xxxx.xx on your SPL screen, you will now proceed to the final part: enabling HSPL. What you will need to do is navigate once more into "DFT_HSPL_WP7SG1" (the .rar file you downloaded from DFT), and go here: >DFT_HSPL_WP7SG1>2_HSPL>DFT_HSPL_WP7SG1_INSTALL.ex e. Open the executable and properly read the instructions.
ii. Enter SPL once more on your phone and plug it into your computer, making sure that it says "usb" in black letters towards the bottom portion of the screen.
iii. Click next on the program and read careful about what requirements you will need on the computer. Typically, it should all be there, but it never hurts to make sure.
iv. Take a deep breath and click next. It will attempt to connect to the phone. If it succeeds, continue reading the instructions the program will display. If it does not work, recheck your wire connection and that you have spl 2.5.xxxx.xx on your device, and that it is in SPL mode.
v. Make sure you select the rom version that you have (it should be the only selection there, but just make sure it is before continuing). Select next once you've made your selection.
vi. It will install HSPL. Once completed, the phone may reboot itself back into SPL mode. If it has succeeded, underneath where it shows your rom version, it will either have "DFT" or "CotullaH" written there. Mine says "CotullaH".

I know exactly where he is stuck because he is using USA AT&T Titan. The HSPL instructions doesn't warn USA AT&T Titans owners of the issue (AND IT SHOULD). So, if you following the procedure that every custom ROM points to exactly (like I did and a lot of other people did) you will be stuck on 2.5 SPL with no way out.
I haven't seen a warning to USA AT&T Titans anywhere that should say to de-brand your Titan first before attempting the HSPL or you'll be stuck.
Your outline will not help this person where he is stuck. Cotulla is working on it (I do believe).
There are a few warnings on the developer forum that AT&T branded phones must first be debranded before the phone can flashed with other roms
Ok, if you say so.

Not totally. You can still update the OS thru cab loader method to Tango and I assume soon after the 7.8 is released you'll be able to do the same. The only thing is you are stuck with crappy stock AT&T ROM. I say crappy because I absolutely hated my phone until I got custom ROM on it. Can you do a warranty exchange with AT&T?
Easy to follow thread for hspl
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684912
If you have the image (or .nbh file) and you dont have it names ETERIMG.nbh it will not flash
here's why, The HTC OEM's names the device eternity. For the USB mode to be able to recognice the correct rom to flash it has to fit the model of phone you have. ETER is the first 4 letters to its OEM name. Add IMG and you got yourself the correct name for flashing roms to your device.

Cotulla is working on it (I do believe). I stopped reading the thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684912) when I got my new device in and de-branded it first (there by preventing the situation that you are in), however, where I left off in my following that thread was Cotulla asking for USA AT&T testers. I have followed the email notifications that I get from that thread, and nothing new that I've seen. On pages 25 - 28 you'll find that Cotulla is (or was) working on it.
So to answer your question, I tried everything when I was stuck on SPL 2.5 and nothing worked. You are stuck on AT&T stock ROM for now. Maybe throwing $$ at Cotulla would speed the process up?:fingers-crossed:
Hope this helps

Hi, I'm currently on a debranded ATT Titan HSPLed with custom rom. Previously I managed to downgrade my SPL from euro v4 back to stock Cingular rom v1.10 These are the steps I took to downgrade:
1. Flashed stock Cingular rom 1.10 using RUU. This brings my Titan from euro Tango rom to stock cingular rom. However the SPL version was stucked at v4
2. Out of desperation, I flashed the stock TEST Cingular rom 2.01 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1477189 again using RUU.
3. Please note that cingular rom 2.01 is a demo/test rom so its not functional.
4. RE-flashed stock Cingular rom 1.10. This time around it downgraded my SPL from v4 to the stock v1.10
Give this a try, and report back. If it works please before trying again to flash HSPL, debrand your titan to euro rom 2.05 using goldcard method
Goodluck.

Hello there,
I had the same situation on my AT&T Titan for 2 weeks, thinking it was my Gold Card or SD, but I finally upgrade the HTC SPL to the official 2.6 from June update.
Then I reflash the Stock AT&T Rom, but the SPL remain at 2.6.
Then I quit for a while. Removed the battery for a couple of days, & tried the Debranding again using the IMG_Eternity_HTC_Europe_2.05.401.01_Radio_Signed_16.23.06.10_16.32.00.23_ETERNITY_RELEASE.nbh, renaming it to ETERIMG.nbh & Goldcard my phone onto this EU Rom.
Then the SPL was downgraded from 2.6 to the EU 2.5.
After that I proceeded to the DTF SPL2.5 & HSPL & voila, the custom Roms.
Hope it help.

Then I quit for a while. Removed the battery for a couple of days, & tried the Debranding again using the IMG_Eternity_HTC_Europe_2.05.401.01_Radio_Signed_16.23.06.10_16.32.00.23_ETERNITY_RELEASE.nbh, renaming it to ETERIMG.nbh & Goldcard my phone onto this EU Rom.
Then the SPL was downgraded from 2.6 to the EU 2.5.
After that I proceeded to the DTF SPL2.5 & HSPL & voila, the custom Roms.
Hope it help.

At this point, I'm deperate. Thanks for the advice, I will be sure try this method and hope for the best. I'll try to keep everyone updated with my results in this thread. Thanks again :good:

I know exactly where he is stuck because he is using USA AT&T Titan. The HSPL instructions doesn't warn USA AT&T Titans owners of the issue (AND IT SHOULD). So, if you following the procedure that every custom ROM points to exactly (like I did and a lot of other people did) you will be stuck on 2.5 SPL with no way out.
I haven't seen a warning to USA AT&T Titans anywhere that should say to de-brand your Titan first before attempting the HSPL or you'll be stuck.
Your outline will not help this person where he is stuck. Cotulla is working on it (I do believe).

My outline comes from the guide I made specifically for AT&T phones that need to do in order to safely debrand and install hspl.
So, if the person went to read the guide fully (where I mention several times that this process is required if they wish to install custom roms) then they can find that they'd be most likely be able to install HSPL after using my debranding method.
My AT&T Titan has HSPL applied and running a custom rom, and there's a picture guide provided in the post to show it.
However, I agree, I do not see any warnings that normally, you can't install HSPL on an AT&T HTC Titan all by itself without debranding. Honestly, there should be, because I can't count how many posts I've seen of people soft-bricking/bricking their devices.
EDIT: However, I guess I forgot to add, you cannot do anything after you applied the custom 2.5 SPL provided by DFT, IF you didn't debrand it prior. If you did debrand your phone, obviously you'll be fine. If you haven't though, then you'll be stuck along with everyone else and you'll need to get a new phone or wait for the fix.

If this actually works, we need to spread the news about. There are still a bunch of AT&T Titans locked out there on SPL 2.5. franchize1989, OP, give us an update if it worked or not. Good luck
So as title says I want every god damn person who have, had this kind of buged phone, tell their expirence, for start I will tell mine.
When i got phone in about was writen x310e, then in SPL screen was written spl 2.5.16.xx in bottom F400, no connection to PC, my next step was to download every god damn europan eternity ROM and flash it via Gold card, when i was getting tierd of changing memory sticks i found one that did the trick with HD7, so i was happy but bump, no work on Titan, so I was searching for solutions and found Cingular eternity ROM with 1.x.xx, so i tried to flash it via gold card and it worked!!! BUT(one big but) it didnt changed Baseband version it stayed 2.5.16.xx i was kinda surprised i thought the flashing failed, but it didnt, the F400 was away and i have Cingular ROM, next step was trying to flash 4.06 bb 2.06... Nothing worked, so i thought i destroyed it since after cingular ROM nothing was flashable, the HSPL allways showed success but nothing changed in SPL screen, but my Titan isnt unflashable it can only be flashed vai goldcard with famous Cingular stock ROM, i managed to update Titan via cab and thats my max triumph.
My humble opinion is that the baseband chip got overloaded or mybe locked to this single stock ROM witch is Designed for this version of Titan.
I have and offer that for 20 euros a phone repair shop can do something with my phone and change the baseband same as make it posible to run customs ROM, they told me 99% it will work, tho he didnt wanted to tell me the method he will use, i supose the J-TAG box method.
You all are free to comment on my case and tell your I am willing to do something extra for at&t Titan users.
Thanks for reading
..... lucky
Ok, I'm in same situation. My titan is trapped in spl 2.5 and the only rom I can flashed is the Cingular eternity rom. You're lucky man if you can flash a custom rom if you're titan was trapped in spl 2.5. Need to know in more detail what do you do to got the freedom.
I'm not getting this, so you're saying you have an AT&T Titan with a model X310e? I though US Titan models are X310a.
It was saying x310e because i had europan ROM when i got it, how that guy managed to install european ROM on it have no clue, all i know is i couldnt install that ROM again after i flashed Cingular ROM, if i could i would investigate how he did it, but i think he flashed European eternity ROM with spl 2.05 without debranding phone first so he got stuck in 2.05 and F400 errror. That is my opinion
I'd say the same thing, the SPL block probably been overwritten by the X310e model. Happened to my DE Trophy, HSPL'd first then installed a stock NZ Rom, but bootloader has been overwritten by the NZ ROM, now the CID is broken but it still recognizes itself as DE Trophy.
So i found this ROM and flashed it IMG Eternity Cingular 2.01.502.04 Radio 16.23.03.17_16.27.00.23U OS 7.10.7740.16 TEST and it did flash, but Bootloader Version didnt changed

The European ROM can be flashed; change the image name from ETERIMG to ETERDIAG; be patient; it will flash; my device says x310e but the SPL remains 2.5.160015.3 (137079). A couple of days ago I got that same F400 error and I reflashed and it went away. He isn't using a custom ROM, what he did was use the WP7 Cab Sender and updated the OS to the latest build which is 8773 (8779 for some AT&T language packs).
I just HSPL'd my device...all of you with x310e ROMs, I will post this in detail later today...I put on my gold card DFT's NBH file for the SPL2.05...it took forever for the "Enter USB Host Mode" to change to load, but it will; next restart the device in bootloader and run DFT's HSPL...I think you have to be really, really patient with the USB Host...I will post more over on DFT thread later.

Just follow the steps I have posted or other instructions where the debrand instructions are; read that entire thread thoroughly; my device began with those specs but now I'm HSPL and using a 17 version Radio. Be patient; read it and the HSPL thread and Wiki.
Bootloader problem?
Your problem is exactly like I had when the HTC bootloader (no matter if SPL HSPL or RSPL is used) got "semi-bricked" , although the auto-turn offs I also experienced vanished in two or three weeks after installing OS (depends on amount of restarts)
This was on another Mango-Tango device (Trophy) but semi bricked for sure......And I guess your device was recovered and then sold after being dumped before as -"completely bricked"- by another owner.

Hi,
my Titan is stuck at
PI39100 MFG
SPL-2.5.160015.3(137079)
with europian official 7.5 rom
I can't HSPL. I wonder if I may rename the ETERIMG to ETERDIAG for the SPL2.05 so I can reinstall it, just it case the device may unblock...
