I'm selling my Cingular 8525 and I want to restore everything (rom/spl/etc) back to the default from AT&T. Currently it has HardSPL and vp3G 3.0 on it.
If I flash the stock AT&T WM6 rom on it will that overwrote the SPL, radio, rom ,etc all back to the defaults?
This is the file from the wiki that I'm thinking will do the trick:
RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3.62.502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe
Thanks!
whoops wrong phone!
I did a reflash to that ROM after a WM6.1 problem and it does flash a different SPL, I dont remember which one tho.
When I flashed back to the stock WM2005 it did not change the loader. Just what I experienced, so you know.

I am pretty sire it will only change the rom, since that is what you are flashing. It will have no effect on the radio or SPL, as far as I know. But, if you are selling it, you can usually get more for saying its unlocked, so I would just flash back to the ATT rom and sell it...
that initial post is over a month old.

Ok, so I've searched the forum and couldn't find anything one way or the other.
I'm probably gonna get flamed for this, but its not for lack of trying to search
2 things
1) I've upgraded to VP3G's WM6 ROM (3.0) and Hard SPL 2.10 Olipro what do I need to do to make sure I don't get my warranty voided
2) If I need to change the ROM (I'm not so concerned about the SPL, I work for att and my RAE said they just clear and repackage as a referb as the SPL is really only visible in bootloader i doubt they'd notice) can I just reflash the WM5 Att rom availible from HTC or are there extra steps. If there are extra steps (Mr.Vanx guide seems to be what I'm looking for, but there was some conflicting info) can I just do a straight flash using the "Official" ATT WM6 rom?
Basically I'm looking for the easiest way to get this thing ready for return
Can I just flash the WM5 ATT ROM or the ATT WM6 ROM, I would like to do the WM5 if I can just flash it straight across.
Also is there a way to check date of manufacture?

Ok as I thought, this is gonna be fun.
Also my radio version is 1.48, as per the guide, is this gonna give me problems?
There are 2 notes on the WM5 Downgrade guide, one that says this will not dwngrade the radio version then the other about 1.48, do I perform the WM5 downgrade as per the guide or are there extra steps?
also, which SPL should I downgrade to 1.04 or 1.06? Do I just match the stock Wm5 ROM's SPL?
I had 2,17 and upgraded to the leak rom 3.16. I did not use any locker or unlocker when upgrading. I am having issues with mail2web that it sends the same sent email several times. I think there is an active sync bug with the leaked rom. Anyways, I am trying to downgrade back to the official 2.17 and I when try to flash after the intial reboot it tell me error 328 invaild command
can anyone please help??
According to my sources, you needed to use olipro's unlocker v2 in order to upgrade the rom to 3.16 in the first place. I wonder how you did it?
I just got done putting the 2.17 rom back on my machine from 3.16 due to a ton of stability issues, not to mention I was downloading at approx 100kbps with 3.16 as opposed to 6-700kbps with 2.17.
Anyways...
You need to use the relocker program and then directly begin the 2.17 rom utility from HTC.
Be sure to remove and reinsert the usb cable when noted.
RELOCKER
nah, you dont need the unlocker if you never flashed a different rom to begin with. (stock rom)
to op, sounds like maybe you need to downgrade back to original bootloader...thats the best i can come up with.
thanks for the responses,
how do I get the oringinal bootloader??
i figure it out. For someone reason when you upgrade to 3,16 the device unlocks automatically, so i relocked the device with the relocker and the 2.17 rom flashed with out any issues. thanks
Did you have to go back to the original radio also?

Yep I tried to downgrade to 2.17 and had the same issue. All I did was hard reset the 3.16 and it cleared all my audio woes, so I never went back to 2.17. At least now I know why I couldn't. And no, you did not need to unlock to upgrade to 3.16
Find the relocker. There is a version of it that has the stock bootloader with it.
Hello... I got my mogul 6800 over a year now. I flashed it with an unlocker I believe. I can't remember, but I do remember 3 colors when I was flashing then flashed a test rom with GPS. Here are the specs.
ROM version 3.16.651
RoM date 12/5/07
Radio Version 3.27.00
Now I want to know how I should go about flashing new rom from HTC? First, how do I know if I used the unlocker, how can i check if i used it? also if I did use a unlocker do i need to use relocker before I flash new rom? Plus is there any reason to use Opris 1.40 or 2.40 to use a custom rom rather than the official one? please advise steps or tutorials please... thanks
hello,
my htc tytn does not detect any sim I don't know if it's a hardware or software problem, but when I go on device informaion that displays:

how to re-install SHIPPED STOCK ROM?
connect with activesync and click on the RUU_Wrapper.exe file.
You need to find the stock rom first. Flash the shipped stock rom. It has to be the shipped rom or upgraded wm06 shipped rom so the cid will match and it MIGHT reflash the radio rom successfully. If you try ANY stock rom it WON't work.
Cheers...
Make sure you Hard SPL your Hermes after. It makes it easier to fix if something goes wrong with a flash , I'd suggest trying to fix first then install Hard SPL V7.

I can not install any wm06 shipped Roms, the download stops at 11% to 12% or 13%, I even installed (HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a) but downloading continues to stop I understand nothing !
Please help me, I do not sleep more than anything to retrieve my radio!
Sorry mate, if you can't flash the shipped rom it means the radio has been corrupted and so can't be used as a phone anymore. Flash Hard SPL V7 then any cooked rom of your choice to use as a PDA but the phone can't be recovered...

First, thank you for your interest in my problem
and how can I fix my rom radio now is that corrupted? for use as a phone
As stated in the title, I'm about to flash back to the old version because the new T9193 telstra doesn't want me to install the HSPL. Anyone who's got the official ROM with 1.42 SPL for me, that's appreciated.
The only ROM I can get from the HTC website is the ROM with 1.66 SPL.
I'm not certain, but I believe this one has spl 1.42.0000
RUU_Leo_Telstra_WWE*_1.49.841.1_Radio_Signed_15.28 .50.07U_2.05.51.11_Ship.exe
Worth a try I guess

thanks alot for that. I was wondering what's the worst if that's not the right ROM?

If not then just go back to your current rom.
that is the right one, telstra 1.49 has spl 1.42
by flash your ROM in this case, is the unlock neccessary? If I understand right, is the unlocking means I can get rid of the CID check to install any wrong CID or unsigned ROM. But if I want to install a CID matched ROM on my device, I don't need to isntall HSPL.
correct, you don't require hspl, because it is a telstra rom on a telstra phone.
Thanks for that! I'm gonna give it a go tonight, and let you guys know how it goes tomorrow.
Successful!!!
I hope people who has Telstra HTC HD2 can find something useful for them.
Greatly thanks to ClydeB1 and samsamuel!!!
I flashed a cooked ROM in and it worked. I restarted as one the applications asked.
Then the device freezed at the start up screen with the green HTC logo.
I have to hard reset the device and re-flash it.
Do you know what's wrong with it?

usually means you didnt flash a matching radio. Read your cooked rom thread, see what radios it recommends and compare to what you have.
