Hi everybody,
I recently bought a serial-to-miniusb cable on ebay and am expecting it to arrive in a couple of days. My intention is to reset the life timer/call duration on my polaris by using the xda manipulator. I would like to hear your opinion on this. Can I try it riskfree? Will it work?
Thanks!

Use Mitty.exe instead to RESET CALL TIMERS.
Read the guide and software are on the forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2027058#post2027058
XDA Manipulator is very unlikely to be able to reset the counters on a Polaris and trying it would be very risky.
Thank you carryo,
So it seems I will have to install olipro 1.10 . Could you please guide me through this step? I know how to turn the phone into bootloader mode. What next? Should I connect it to the PC via USB ?
Thanks again
and wouldn't it be dangerous to install this SPL olipro 1.10 on me device? I mean I am not a specialist and don't know, what's the difference between older and newer spl?
Hi buekly,
Careful that hardspl for htc hermes, tq
Well then, can anybody suggest another way to reset call timers? I have done a big search and found nothing useful...
just download that mtty.exe, flash HardSPL for Polaris and that's it
the rest is on the help page
Download ATcommander for your phone and try [email protected]=270F,270F should reset call timers to 0

You should use the HardSPL for Polaris which instead of olipro 1.10 which was a version or an older phone. You can find the file and instructions on the Sticky thread in the Polaris Upgrading etc. section. HardSPL won't damage your phone and will make sure that you can easily recover from anything else you change.
Then use Mitty.exe to reset the counters.
OK, now this is getting more and more interesting. Let me tell you about my progress. I made a Hard SPL for my Polaris. Then, I ran Atcommand. I insterted the following:
ate1----> 0
ate0----> OK
[email protected]=270f,270f ---> Error
When I saw that error, I remained quite disappointed. However when I checked the call duration in settings/device information I saw it was 00:00:00. But also, I saw in Identity that the phone doesn't have an IMEI number. So, I inserted a SIM card, made a call and, when I checke again, I saw that all the information was back, i.e. call duration back to 40 hours, IMEI reappeared. Why is that happening? These commands seem to oinly apparently remove the call duration, but when you insert a sim card, everything is back.
I tried another option, through MTTY. I disabled USB connection in Sync, turned the phone into bootloader mode, connected, ran MTTY, selected USB. But when I enter rtask b, see what I get below in the image. And that's it! After this text appears, I can't type anything else. I have to restart the MTTY.
So please help with any suggestions, cause I'm already run out of them. Thanks
which spl are you using does your spl say security unlocked at the top? If not try this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351964 .I just use ATcomander to reset my timers When you use rtask b it just puts the phone in diagnostic mode you can proberly connect via a com port (after installing drivers) but i dont think we can use many AT commands with the polaris spl.

yes, I used namely this spl and this I told you what happened. Do you also have a polaris and it worked reseting timers on yours?
Yes i have a polaris and have just reset the timers with ATcommander using [email protected]=270f,270f,ATcommander should return with a 0,now all timers a 00:00:00.
The only thing i can think of is i dont think hard spl fully security unlocks under mtty try "rtask a" then "setinfo" and see if your SECU_FLAG=0.
Also what radio are you using?
no really, it isn't working:
1) when i type ate1, it gives 0, then atv1, it gives OK, then [email protected]=270f,270f it gives ERROR. I'm run out of options. I mean there's something wrong with the last command. Maybe I should change it or what? Maybe I should enter another value? I tried [email protected]=9999,9999 it also shows ERROR.
2) I tried "rtask a" in mtty, but it shows the same text as in "rtask b" (see previous attatchment).
My radio version is 1.59.42.15
OK, I tried checking secu flag
I typed "[email protected]?AA" it showed "@secu_flag 1 0" What does it mean?
@secu_flag 1 0 means your phone is not fully security unlocked i can't remember how i got mine to secu_flag 0 it was using [email protected]=2,0 or something like that.I'll have a look how, you dont need the ate or atv commands there just for displaying results.

OK then, why are the timers then resetting temporary after I introduce these commands? By temporary I mean they are back again when I insert a sim card. And also, after I introduce these commands IMEI disappears in system/device information/identity. It says "IMEI not support", and when I dial *#06# I get "Failed". When sim card inserted or phone restarted - everything reappears.
Right i found [email protected]=7,1 relocks security setting,and [email protected]=7,0 unlocks them,if [email protected]=7,0 doesn't work with your radio use the polaris unlocker and flash OliNex patched radio go through the all three steps then try [email protected]=7,0 and then [email protected]=270f,270f,I tried reseting the timers when locked and got a error,so with some hopes that will work for you ,Then flash your radio back when finished.

I downloaded it, however by the end of the thread I can see a lot of complaints from users, claiming that the signal either disappeared or reduced by 80% after using it. Have you tried it?
Yer thats the one i used,as i said flash your original radio back after you have finished to 1.59.42.15 or whatever you where using because i think olinex radio is just patching the simlock i think ? but is not very good for everyday use.

Warranty got back my device back to life
Hi I bricked my device a few days back and tried all the stuff to bring it back to lifee but in vain... I finally gave up my trials and approached the service centre. They just replaced the motherboard inside and luckily everything seems fine now. They hadn't charged me anything as it was within warranty. Anyone in India if you need service centre address..

Now I think that the reason of non flashing, even with official RUU, could be corrupted CID-block after using HardSPL on devices with low IPL/SPL. I've read thread about similar problem with Wizard. The question is: how to restore the CID block in our bricked devices? I'm not even sure if this theory with CID-block is a reason...
What do you think about such a trick:
- Run RUU on someone's working HTC device but only until the moment, when it wants you to click the last button to finally proceed with flashing. (This step is to let RUU to know that this RUU is correctly dedicated to our device). It's a kind of fake for RUU, cause our CID doesn't match the CID of ROM included in RUU.
- Next disconnect working device from the USB and connect your bricked device with launched bootloader mode
- Next click the final button to launch flashing in RUU application. If the process of CID matching was done before this step, the flasher should start and let us flash our bricked device. But I'm sceptic to this solution. If it was so trivial, everyone could flash his device with different ROMs so easy...
I can't try this trick cause I don't have working HTC. What do you think? Will it work or not?

working Herald or any HTC?
I have the same prob
I'm thinking about working device, exactly the same as this bricked one - in this case Herald. But all of this is only a theory. I don't have enough knowledge about the RUU flashing process.
My another idea is to swap only ROMUpdateUtility.exe, rapitool.exe and EnterBootloader.exe files from official RUU dedicated to your bricked device, with different versions of these files from another HTC devices just to test if it helps to recognize our bricked devices by RUU. Maybe the problem is wrong version of these files? But which versions are correct?
I'm just trying to find a solution to unbrick our f.....g Heralds . I know this is only a matter of time and soon or later we will know what to do. Moreover I believe that there are people, even on this forum, who know how to unbrick our Heralds but some of them don't want to do us a favour. I know what I'm talking about...

Welcome to the club...
As far as I know, SD flashing doesn't work because of the CID-lock.

Stucked windows screen is a different problem. This method is ok only for working device.
In this case this is the only one idea:

3. Plug in your device via USB. Your computer should be asking install a driver. Install and continue.
4. Now Run mtty and choose USB in 'PORT'
4. type "set 16 0" without the quotes to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
5. type "task 8" to get your device formatted.
6. Now unplug your device and manually reset it.

I did try to put back a french ROM. I don't know if it was the original because unfortunately when I first flashed it I was kind of beginner in flashing HTC's, but I tried with the only original french ROM that I found on this forum. The process goes through, but yet the result is the same. Is there any kind of command to fully erase (format) the memory (beside the bootloader) and then try to load a ROM ?
Same for me with restoring SPL ...it doesn't work.
And my device is almost at the same state of damage as yours. See my thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402765
Also the mtty and task8 just restarts my device. Nothing more, nothing less!
So there is no way of restoring SPL with entering the bootloader manually? Not even a mSD-Card Trick out there? I need to get it done because of warranty ;/
You stucked in Olipro hard-spl, this is why restore spl not works...
And unfortunatelly you can not flash spl with micros-sd.
But you can try to flash rom with micro-sd card.

"So there is no way of restoring SPL with entering the bootloader manually? Not even a mSD-Card Trick out there? I need to get it done because of warranty ;/"
I do not understand exactly...
Did you try restore original spl with manual bootloader?
you run SSPL from Windows Mobile, then flash a stock SPL NBH, job done.
the whole *point* of Hard-SPL is that it can't be overwritten when it performs a flash so that if anything screws up you don't end up locked out of reflashing in the event something screws up.

You can not restore spl followed the guide in post 2 (WITHOUT manual bootloader)
You can not access your windows mobile (WM does not boot)
You freeze on startup screen
You can not start you phone with steps in post 6

If yes, you stucked in bootloader. And unfortunatelly I can not help you...Maybe Olipro.

See I have no error because of invalid flashing. I had slight water damage. But some days later my device was working again for a whole day.
Next day it didn't work anymore.

When i plug in the AC charger i can't even get beyond the O2-Splash.
But I can enter the bootloader and flash what I want, it works ;/

Yes but on "task 8" my device doesn't behave as it should be. It just restarts doing nothing.
Seems like i just have to hope the guys at the service center will not recognize my "not original" SPL. 1% chance ;(
Well thanks for now fktsndr.
Seems like there is really no way of restoring it without Windows Mobile ;(
I thought there would maybe be a "Low Level"-Method of accessing the device and restoring SPL.
Can't think of that there is no way of formatting the device on its lowest level (mtty) or transferring the original SPL per MTTY. Hmm...there should always be a way
Olipro, no way? ;(
if I remember right, the polaris hardSPL is based on an MFG bootloader.
this means you can use mtty commands (mw) to unpatch the write protection then flash the stock SPL.
if I don't remember right, and it is not MFG, then you can still use another mtty command with a special file, but this is more complicated and was not fully tested. you can contact me in PM and we can see.
(you could transfer SPL via mtty, but that is also blocked in hardspl because the mtty transfer uses same code to flash the SPL in this SPL common base)
by the way task 8 is exactly designed to just do a soft reset. nothing wrong with that command.
they really meant task 28. this does a hard reset. you can try that. I guess you already did, but just in case!
edit: I just remembered another way if task 28 doesn't help. ifyou don't mind that the device will stop booting SPL, then you can just do task 2a command in mtty. this will erase SPL, and because of hardSPL overwrite protection it will fail to flash it back from the temporary RAM backup.
the result is that the device will not even boot SPL, it will be black screen. it will boot to the radio bootloader only and O2 won't know what SPL was on it before erase.
does anyone know of a company or repair service that will unbrick my hermes?
thanks
Whats wrong, maybe we can help...
Give us a brief rundown on whats wrong, and what you did to fix...
Well first of all,
the phone was bricked through unable to flash a rom
i didn't get a chance to check the SPL and IPL before the phone was bricked
the phone is only showing bootloader and the ok+power+soft reset doesn't work
ive tried the micro sd method and didn't work
i had just barely got the phone and was a noob at it so like every other person who doesn't take the time to read, didn't put the Hard SPL on the device.
i don't know what else to do now.
thanks for replying
Download the original SHIPPED rom.
Untick "allow usb connection" in activesync on your PC.
Reset into bootloader - hold power, OK button above flywheel and rset with stylus. This should bring you to thr tri-colour screen wher your IPL and SPL are shown. This is true bootloader, not a screwed up version. DO THIS...
Connect Hermes to pc.
Run RUU-Wrapper.exe of original rom.

See the problem that i have with that is the fact that i don't know what my original rom was, all i know was that it was an htc windows mobile 5 rom, but i don't know what version..
could it help if i told you that it is a qtek 9600 (herm100)?
Owh, forgot to mention.
I already applied hardSPL. I guess thats why the process of recovering it quite simple. N I directly flash the ROM to WM6.1 v13.3 Cooked Rom. It works like a charm.
Bo0mcxh402 : sorry mate. I didn't know the original version of ur ROM. Maybe u can try to ask around. I'm sure there've lot of users out there also using the same phone as yours,
Try the HTC stock WM06 rom which you should be able to find somewhere on here... May work...
Cheers...

It's irrelevant what your original ROM was/is. Follow these directions and use the T-Mobile ROM.
The T-Mobile ROM won't install. It will go thru a couple of steps (one of which is "Erasing" which is critical to get through) and then it will "Error" out. After the T-Mobile ROM "erases", your Hermes should be back to a state where you can flash any ROM you prefer.

Well i Tried the method, but i can't even get the phone to sync even after i unticked the "Allowed USB connections," the phone is recognized as "HTC usb connection" but when i run the t-mobile rom, it says error 264, (USB Connection)
The reason I said to use the shipped rom is because Bo0mcxh402's device ISN'T supercid... If it was it could take ANY rom you want to throw at it BUT because its not you HAVE to have the STOCK CARRIER ROM it was shipped with (later update may work too as the cid should be recognised)...

Did the T-Mobile ROM do *anything* or just immediately error out?

I couldn't do anything because the t-mobile rom didn't recognize my hermes even though my computer did
That pesky CID again as stated so many times before. You need to find your stock carrier rom. The upgrade to WM06 will work as well as it has the same CID as the shipped rom.

well i ended up trying that and nothing happened... the usb connection didn't work for the hermes, i know that there is nothing wrong with the usb connection because i used it on my t-mobile dash.
IVE GIVEN UP.. IS THERE A COMPANY FOR A REASONABLE PRICE THAT WILL UNBRICK THE PHONE?
On the PC - Untick "Allow usb connections" in activesync settings.
On Hermes - Hold OK button, power button and reset with stylus. This will bring you back to bootloader BUT it won't be the screwy bad flash bootloader.
Connect the Hermes to the PC via usb. Run the RUU_Wrapper.exe of the stock rom.
This should work, if it doesn't then there may be no help available. You don't want activesync trying to connect to the Hermes so its better to disable the usb connection settings, You might be able to get a successful flash this way without activesync screwing it up.
Can't say about any unbrick service. Don't think they could help, only thing they might do is replace the mainboard (if they can find) and that would be expensive.

If anyone find a time to help me , about HTC artemis is only stuck on windows mobile screen/logo
..also phone was entering on bootloader mode , three color screen ?
3.15.0000 version T-mobile , but cant fllashing , cant uspl nothing only going to 3% and stopping there.
Any help on this please?
best.r
Hellooooo...
Masters , how to solve this problem , pleasee???????
Radio ROM curropted,
First of all
Try restoring factory settings.
1) PUSH AND HOLD the (-) and (-) buttons over the (ok) and (windows) buttons, then press and hold RESET button.
2) Release reset button. but keep (-) and (-) held.
3) A message will appear and tells you to press SEND to restore factory defaults, SEND = GREEN TEL BUTTON.
4) Press it and wait, see what will happen after, maybe once it's finished you will need a soft reset, I don't remember...
Second Try possibility -if the above will not work-
Try with flashing a new full official ROM
it might be a problem as probably you do not have USPL unlocked!
so your SPL should still be looked to 3,13 or similar.
it would give you a DEVICE ERROR if you update it, and stop at 3%.
if SPL is 1.11 so that's fine, SPL is unlocked.
just enter bootloader and flash any complete (OS + RADIO) Rom, even non factory rom.
if SPL is locked you can save your tel just trying to update and original factory rom.
example: T-Mobile UK, T-Mobile Germany, T-Mobile ....
Note that even if they are all T-Mobile they are different! (Germany is different than UK, and so...)
Desperate last choise
If all the above did not solve,
probably your Radio ROM is curropted and in a bad sector,
use MTTY tool and comands to do a low level format, and remove any residual rom tack.
Do not clean bootloader, you will need it for the new re-flash
Then enter bootloader and flash an official factory rom.
It took me 6,30 hours to save my last Artemis, wish you a quicker solution, so good luck!
mouse.co.nr , thanks for reply mate.
First i have try since from yesterday to give on the phone any fllash , i have try so much diference way to get solution but nothing happen.
The phone cant do a hard reset by presing buttons , the phone was only get on bootloader mode , and was show IPL 3.15.0001 , and SPL 3.15.0000 , and i know that the phone was not cid unlock maybe , but i cant give any upsl and fllashing with fllash that phone.
Second i we try with ART_TMOUK_11311001_024990_WWE_Ship_R3 t=mobile UK , nothing happen , also only radio ARTEIMG_TMO_UK_4.1.13.251_02.92.90_RadioOnly , again nothing.
Radio only , and fllash was going to 3% and stopping.
Artemis_USPL , starting and was going to 100% , but cant finalize i think , bcs ERROR [270]:UPDATE ERROR The image file is corrupted.Please check your update Utility.
..and also i have try to fllash from sd card http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_SD_Card_Flashing , i have create one folder with name : root , and i'we put the image ARTEIMG.nbh....but can not starting from sd card also.

...probably a problem is creating a folder with the name root, "root folder" means on your sd-card without any folders... as far as i know...
anyway, good luck trying

SPL still Locked!
two solutions:
1) USPL (proper one) lately I foundout the official one on the official form was giving me some update errors, I think the file is curropted, and if startuspl.exe does not run till 100%, reboot and start the RUU by itself, it wouldn't work if you maually start the RUU once the original launched after USPL gaves the error.
I'm attaching another USPL try this other one...
2) if your pc does not see the PPC for USPL, try not other WWE roms, it should be for your ARTEXXXX, ther is ARTE100, ARTE110, ARTE1000, ARTE200 ...
try more than one till you'll get the 100% rom update.
Radio Only will not work, you are in bootloader, you have an OS problem! if it gives you the "windows mobile image" and stops there, so it's just the radio, else it's the OS and probably the radio!
do a full ROM updt, official WWE have both radio and OS.
I wish for you that your PPC doesn't stop at Windows Mobile Image (the one after boot image), I have thrown away a P3600 in this way!!! Radio was so curropted that I could not fix it anyway, nither MTTY, required a CIP programming, but I'm not good at...

It surprised me the first time I got a 270, try the attached uspl, I got that from the rapidshare, scanned with norton 2010 and is clean, tested today on a german T-Mobile ARTE100 and it worked (now it speaks french!).

Will not work, you can not bypass protections just by running SD bootmode!
if it's locked it's always locked!

I have no idea, try one of each, in the worst of cases it will always block at 3% and bring you back to beginning, Bootloader mode back again and re-flash..

no bootloader possible
hi,
I have tried everything on my T-Mobiel MDA Vario 3.
SSPL-KAIS.exe
JumpSPL 156, 193 and 194
pressing of any keys will not forward me into the bootloader
on my pda is IPL and SPL 3.15
I have also tried HardSPL 329 and 356, no success.
the only way to get into the bootloader is when starting KaiserCustomerRUU.exe, but no ROM is getting installed. I always receive an error 270 file defect. but this is not correct, as I have tested 3 or 4 different files.
does anybody have an idea?
thanks a lot

Hi!
Check hardware buttons,maybe one of them is broken,that's why you can't put your device in bootloader.
Make a Goldcard (search) and flash the Kaiser with Goldcard inside.It will revive your device.

I doubt that you tried all the possibilities mentioned in post 7 from the link I gave you before, but if you did and nothing worked then I can't see what will...Sorry mate but before you call it dead, try a 2nd time and 3rd,

If you are able to enter the bootloader tricolor screen and you see that you have indeed USPL 2.26 installed, then you should be able to flash anything you want!
Fully charge your pda
Remove your memory card and SIM card
Connect via usb, enter bootloader and flash the Rom you want with the RomUpdateUtility.exe
WARNING
Since you don't have HardSPL but USPL be extra careful NOT to flash a Rom that includes SPL cause then your device mightwill get CID locked.
If the above steps don't get you with a working device, then better check if the USPL really worked.
A safe way to find out if your CID unlocking worked is following this method & check the line:
Code:
g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = ?
;If ?=0 => Touch=CID_Unlocked => Able to flash any ROM or Radio Update through Bootloader
;If ?=FF => Touch=CID_Locked => Try CID_Unlocking again BEFORE flashing anything
