hermes brick... no rom.. wont boot using PB

my friend owns an 8525 and all of a sudden it stopped working (cant make/recieve calls and text messages). i tried doing a hard reset and it didnt work. he called att and the tech guy told him that his phone needs to reinstall the rom, which also didnt work. he bought a new phone and gave me the hermes so that i can play around with it. i tried installing wm6 on it and at 15% the update stopped.. and the phone reset itself. now.. it doesnt have a rom installed and keeps on going to the tricolor screen. i tried the unbrick method (in the wiki) several times and still no luck. it keeps telling me that i dont have enough ram but the booting still wont start. what are my other options for fixing this?... my kaiser was bricked before and i did the unbrick method for that and it work.. i havent tried that yet but is there any chance that it will work..?..
he doesnt need the phone anymore but hes hoping that itll be fixed so he can use it as a backup phone.. so.. yea.. any other ideas for ressurecting an old friend?
thanks!!

Sounds like the radio rom is dead.... Whats the SPL? You have a chance if it has Hard SPL installed - should say SPL - 2.10 olipro.
If so, try flashing a stock rom first, then a radio only rom. If you get no love, flash a cooked rom on it. I'd do it using the sd card method.
It should work as a PDA if you can't flash the radio, but its a brick cos no more phone calls...
If he doesn't want that, he could sell it on ebay for spare parts...
Cheers...

I just went through a similar situation last night. I am running dvh_79's v16 (build 19965.1.2.3) Lite. I added his HTC Today Plugin from the sdauto zip file but didn't like how the Today plugin slowed down my phone, so I uninstalled it and that's when my radio took a dump.
I used the instructions in the Hard SPL forum post #116 to unbrick it using the same rom and radio .nbh files and it went off without a hitch.
The first thing anyone should flash onto their phone is Hard SPL v7. Even before any skins. It won't make you 100% safe from bricks, but I'm damn glad I had it on there this morning while I was reinstalling my phone.
BTW ultramag69, I saw a lot of posts by you in various threads talking about unbricking a phone, and correct me if I am wrong, but if I have olipro 2.10 SPL on my phone (which I do), is it possible to initiate an install of a ROM image without being able to successfully boot the OS on the phone? Does Olipro automatically look for HERMIMG.nbh on the SD card? That was a point of confusion for me at first until I ran the HARDSPPL.exe file, but then again my phone didn't brick to the point I couldn't boot the OS.
What are the choices if you cannot boot OS? Are there any that can be performed from the bootloader itself?
Thanks.

well.. i did the kaiser unbrick procedure.. the mtty thingy.. it kinda worked. after that i installed the dopod wm6 rom... it handled the wm6 well---for a while.. after booting, the phone would turn off by itself (w/ 100% battery of course) or even restart itself..
sometimes it will stay on and be "fully functional" (w/o the calling and messaging still...) but somehow freezes when i look at the device information, specifically in the page where it displays the imei (which is missing btw...)..
the "phone" function doesnt work either, as it doesnt show the dialer.. and then after a few minutes, the phone finally freezes...
idk why this happens.. i tried installing other roms but the rom update always freezes. i tried 4 different roms already... so i had to do the mtty thing again...
(i have hardspl installed)

Codevyper, IF YOU HAVE hARD SPL INSTALLED, yes you can run the os flash. Just put the sd card in and reset. As the Hermes is going to the bootloader anyway it will recognise the flash file "hermimg.nbh". I've successfully fixed my phone when thats happened.
akosiryan, it sounds like you may have a corrupted radio rom. This is not gonna make you happy but this is ,at this point, almost 100% unbrickable. You could try to flash a radio only rom - no os, just the radio - but if it gets stuck and you've tried the stock rom then it looks like its a permanent brick...
You should be able to use as a PDA if you don't play with the phone functions though...
Just as a last shot, you could always use MTTY to check for bad blocks BUT this requires you to downgrade the SPL to 1.10 olipro to fix if you do. Please note though that sometimes the carrier does give you a couple of bad blocks to "brand" it as theirs...
Best of luck.

Thanks ultramag69! I am indeed running olipro 2.10 on my phone so it makes me feel better knowing that if I can get the nbh on the card, then I can flash the ROM that way.

oh well.. me and my friend decided to sell his phone on ebay or sumthin..lol.. so its not a problem.. ill try to do one last step tho.. like flashing the radio only rom to see if itll work.. but i dont really care anymore.. lol.

No problem... If the Ebay from where you're from is like Aussie ebay, you should get approximately 1/2 to 2/3 the price that the working models go for. Generally the price goes up about 6 hours before the end of the auction with the price skyroketing in the last 10 mins... I'd probably give it a few days on Ebay to make sure people see it....
If you do get the radio rom working, Hermes (jasjam/dopod 838 pro) go for about $250 - $350Aud in Oz.
Cheers...

ok then! thanks

official at&t callerID update bricked my phone.. :(

after my phone rebooted once the update was complete, it wont get passed the "at&T World Phone" white screen... SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!! i was using a stock at&t pure with the stock rom. i can not upgrade hardspl or ANYTHING any suggestions on how to get my phone to boot? hard-reset went through with no signs of failure but it still will not boot up after that finishes... sorry if its something im overlQQKing, but i just cant figure it out. n yes i have researched although obviously not enough at this point. Thanks to anyone who can help in advance. forgive my stupidity!!!

noone?????

The HTC Pure updates hosed my phone too, I had already applied hard-spl to my Pure and i've flashed it with dozens of roms. Since I was currently using one of the "Stock" AT&T roms posted on XDA I figured I could apply the updates. Unfortunately after applying the update my phone froze at the boot loader. I was forced to flash my rom using the memory card method and then restore a backup.
you could try putting the phone in SSPL mode manually, (reset button+volume down), the run hard-spl hard-spl in manual mode.
you can then flash your rom using the memory card method. (FAT32 formated memory card, rom file renamed to topaz.nbh copied to root of flash card, reset button+volume down to enter SSPL, power button to confirm flash).
All this assumes you've already tried to hard reset your Pure (reset button+vol up+vol down)

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunatly, i tried the manual method and after it hanging at 0% for about 5 minutes, i keep getting error [262] update error.. (communications error) is this becuase i can not sync with mobile device center (win7)? I really dont want to just have to toss the phone! I have had an at&t tilt, at&t fuze, and now the at&t pure, and this is the only phone i have had this problem with for some reason...

Try Unplugging Your Pure From the computer Take Out the Battery Put the Battery Back in Mean While Restart your computer and Press Power And Volume Down At the Same time on your Pure If its on the colored screen your good,..Make sure your system is online and your not downloading anything and plug in your Pure to the computer it give it about 2 minutes to download the HTC USB driver then once its done your phone will say USB on the bottom of the Red Green Blue And White four color screen Then open up one of your ROM's and Flash it,....Do You Have Windows Mobile Device Center Installed?
If Not here is the Link
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
If you do already you need to uninstall the Driver update for windows mobile media center then install it again .

i can get the bootloader screen just fine! i just can not get hardspl to flash onto it. it sits at 0% every time. the phone will not boot so i can NOT get into mobile device center. The tri-colored screen comes up with no problem and it says USB on the bottom, so the drivers are already installed. I even tried hard-reset and still no luck

There was an additional cab file I needed to install to HSPL the Pure
"enablerapinew.cab"
basically the machine just would fail to load the HSPL without it
but it still functioned afterwards, does yours?
Do a search on XDA find and DL the cab (or I could attach a zipped copy)
If you can still access the device,
just copy enablerapinew.cab to any temp dir on the device
the execute it through fileexplorer
then go back to installing the HSPL (mine then worked fine)
If you haven't already, You should go to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312
you'll find troubleshooting info and a link to the extra cab there
If you really are bricked at this point , it sounds like nothing has actually
been changed on your device yet? its just frozen should be still under warrentee? Unless anyone else has a better suggestion you should be
able to return it for exchange to ATT
Good Luck

It sounds like Windows is not properly recognizing your device when it is plugged into the USB port while in SSPL mode.
Have you tried different ports?
Is there another computer you can use?

another thought about returning under warranty
on the boot page of the stock Pure it indicates HSPL 1.83.000
After you update the HSPL it will say HSPL "1.83.Olinex"
this normally an indication of a successful update,
but it will probably void your warranty if they just look at the boot screen
This is true for all Pure (and Tmobile Compact V) Rom upgrades
The Stock Pure came with 6.5 and therefore the 1.83.00 HSPL
The Diamond2s did not, so their solution which reverts to 1.63 <?>
will not correctly revert to 1.83.00 on the Pure.
No way to correct this yet as far as I know,?
All the "reverts" are geared toward the Diamond2s, not the Pure.
But If your boot screen indicates 1.83.00 before it freezes
I'm fairly sure its still entitled to a warranty repair/replace
How could they tell the cause of the failure
was a reburn as opposed to natural causes?
Good Luck
KJL

When you put the phone into a manual bootloader mode... Mobile Device Center becomes obsolete.
HardSPL is only needed for unofficial roms. Forget HardSPL for the time being. The goal here is to get your phone operational. Just download the official HTC WM6.5 WWE rom and flash that. Put phone in manual bootloader mode and run the Rom installer.
As long as your phone is in bootloader mode and says "USB"... then your set to go.
Another solution is to try another PC. You'd be surprised how often that will resolve your issues. Perhaps find an XP machine and install Activesync (so it loads the bootloader USB drivers). I had to do that on several occasions when my main PC refused to flash my mobile device.

I did both of the updates htc has for the pure. Both worked fine. I am on the origianal rom. It does reboot your phone and stays on the white screen for a min then it loads the update and the phone starts.

The offical ROM comes back with a wrong vender ID error I guess cause its a "pure" and not the HTC branded "topaz"... NOW what should i do??? Seems like i NEED hardspl so i can flash any ROM, as from what i researched, there IS NO AT&T Pure rom that has been released. I still cant figure out why a hard-reset will not work though.... This is REALLY starting to get me angry!!!

Just for reference, the Pure's ID is TOPA210 32M
SPL-1.83.0000
The official hotfixes worked fine for me as well. Did you apply the hotfixes on the original ROM that came with your Pure?
Also, does the official HTC Touch Diamond 2 ROM work for you? If so, the hotfixes for the Pure are irrelevant, as are any future updates released for the Pure. You should look for updates for the Touch Diamond 2 on the Worldwide HTC site.
If you needed to do a warranty claim, the closest you can get to returning your phone to stock/shipped form is to use the ROM dump using HardSPL and hope they don't notice that the SPL is different. Currently, there's no way to return the Pure back to completely official software.
A hard reset simply wipes everything off and restores everything back to what is contained in just the ROM you currently have on it. If you've flashed your phone at all, you've already wiped out the original ROM that came with it.

It is still the STOCK ROM. I have never flashed it yet.. The topaz rom will not flash due to a vender ID error. The spl is still stock also... i think thats is why i am having this problem. I bought the phone off craigslist so returning it to AT&T is NOT an option either way. My only solution is to find a fix. (or trash it) I really appreciate all of your suggestions and input so far. You guys are by far the best board around! I am a LONG time follower, but a few-time poster. Obviously i have little to contribute to the board.

Can I trouble you to dig up a few version numbers? It'd help evaluate your situation so we can see which options are best for your case.
ROM version? You can find this in Device Information. Start --> Settings --> System --> Device Information
Bootloader version? Do a soft reset while holding down the volume down button on the side until a screen with red, green, blue, and white, ordered top to bottom, shows up. It should be the second line starting with "SPL-..."

The ROM is the STOCK AT&T ROM (again...) I CAN NOT go to start;.... because if you noticed in the first post, the phone will not boot past the white "AT&T WorldPhone" screen... the spl is stock also incase you missed that part. (1.33.0000) I have never flashed the divice. EVERYTHING IS HOW AT&T SELLS THE PURE OUT OF THE BOX! NO MODS. NO FLASHED ROMS. NO HardSPL... NOTHING! STOCK!!! (for those overlooking the details in my previous posts) I have no doubt you guys (n hopefully a few girls ) will help me fix my issue. I'm just REALLY anxious for it to happen sooner than later!

Have you tried downloading the official rom here on xda and renaming it to TOPAIMG.nbh and update using the sd card method?
Here is the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=600339
The download is in post #1

I have downloaded the official ROM. Although I thought it is still concidered "custom" and that you need spl updated to install it... Am I wrong about this? Also, by using the SDcard to flash, do I NEED to have hardspl on the device? If yes, I can not use this method, as I have stated before that the spl is still stock and NOT updated in any kind of way. NOTHING on the phone has been updated or flashed. Will this method still work then???? I am at work for 3 more hours and then will go home and try it either way and come back to update you all on the results. Again, THANK YOU for your continued support in helping me out!! At this point, I will send a donation via paypal to whoever can get me out of this hole!

You can flash hard SPL the same way by renaming the .nbh file to
TOPAIMG.nbh

Actually that is supposed to be an officially signed rom. If that is true it will work with the stock spl. It will either work or it won't. Also, as stated in the response after yours, you can apply the hardspl via SD as well.

got hardspl now i'm stuck

a similar question has probably already been posted
i have a tmobile hd2
i successfully hardspl to it
i flashed the energy reference rom
then i realized that i needed to use the task29 tool before
i flash any rom... did that, hard resetted, and then tried flashing again (energy referecne) using the sd card method
and i just get stuck on the "NRG" screen
tried the other custom ruu method getting the same results
using the radio 2.07.50.27
i put back the regular spl to flash a stock rom but still no luck
i know the phone isn't bricked i can get to boot loader, hard reset
any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance!
Thanks!

ok as from my knowledge you dont necessarily need to do task29 if its ur first time flashing (cuz i didnt and i got very good results) so i think u messed up in tht part.. but its ok, now you prolly want to first --> do a task29 again... second ---> get the nrg rom and flash it.... third -->get a radio of 2.10 or higher and flash tht....and just to play safe flash everything using custom ruu (i got better results using them...just saying)... also when u do each flash and its suspenseful dont boot up the phone, just take out the battery and back into bootloader.
hope this helps... report back lol

^thanks man
Okay so heres how it goes, my phone is def not bricked
custom ruu has only worked once for me
now whenever i try to use it it always gets stuck at 8%
i found that if i flash it at night and hard reset. wait til morning and turn on the phone
then it loads past the nrg screen and into the OS.
i'm currently trying to get it back to stock and i downloaded the tmobile update
but it doesnt seem to work, it also keeps stopping at 8%
i disable the anti virus stuff and i plug it in to the back of my computer

sounds like a defect
sorry to bust your bubble bro but it sounds like you got a classic case of a defective leo, i too did the same steps you did and it turns out my main board wasn't any good and the phone kept overheating, turns out when flashing custom roms they tend to put more pressure on the snapdragon then a regular stock t mobile rom. i know this sounds crazy but i believe it to be true, so with that said you got two options, one get back to t mobile customer care and get a replacement. or do what i did and find a repair shop and let them know that your leo either needs a new mainbaord or a new heatskin like mines did, it cost me 80 dollars which wasnt bad since my leo was a gift and i couldnt give it back to t mobile... hope that helps in some way
p.s. sorry for the edit but if you cant do either of those of what i suggested, try this get yourself a nice icepack nthe size of your phone and mount the leo on top of it whenever your using it, so that sucker wont overheat. once again i hope i helped

[q] need help with hd2 experts please read!

Ok, guys I REALLY NEED HELP WITH MY TMOUS HD2.
I currently have HSPL 2.08 but everytime i go into the bootloader and install a WinMo 6.5 Rom it gets stucked at 8% percent for awhile then goes to 100. After i installed it, it gets stuck on T-Mobile, Stick Together screen with the R G B thing on the bottom.
I had NAND on my HD2 but it keeps freezing in every rom anytime I use data connection, recieve calls, or use browser or anything that uses the Data Or T-Mobile Connection. So i decide to reflash everything starting with Radio, and I recently installed Radio 2.15 something like that in A radio thread somewhere on the forums. I chose that one because im assuming it's the newest one. I flashed it, and removed MAGLDR, and etc. I currently tried using Task29 and flashed stock 2.08 radio but had the same problems. I CANNOT FLASH ANY ROMS. I TRIED REFLASHING MAGLDR AND CWM AND I CANT GET INTO RECOVERY I GET A FATAL ERROR1. Should return the HD2 to T-Mobile? They don't sell the HD2 anymore so i assume HTC will have to give me one. I'm currently deciding the only choice i have is to return my HD2 to T-Mobile. I flashed SPL 2.08 so it's back to stock. I cannot install or load any roms without it being stuck in the T-Mobile screen. Any help? Or i just have to replace it with a new one?

your phone is currently out of warranty, do not send it to HTC.
Download the tmobile stock ROM by going to the tmobile website > support and they will aks you for your IMEI and SN, enter it and it will give you a download for the stock ROM.
Download the ROM, then extract the file.
Take the .nbh file and rename it to LEOIMG.NBH
put that on the root of your 8gb or less SD card, pop it in, get into bootloader, and hit the power button when it tells you to.
IF this fails it sounds like a hardware issue.
Put your phone in a plastic bag and stick it in th fridge for 10 minutes, take it out and reflash as above, after flash call HTC on a warranty claim because your phone will be stock and hence back in warranty.

I've tried that, i only have a 16gb sd card and it works, but it gets stuck in the stick together crap. D:

seems to be cropping up every few days lately, this problem, though it's always been around. 'stuck radio', 'spl wont change ' 'flash fails at 8/9/10%' and variants thereof, , android gives fatal hit, nothing sticks when flashed, and teh phone never gets past teh rgd screen (cos the radio is shafted)

so i cant send it to htc? then wtf..?

Well from reading this thread I agree with samsamuel, it sounds like you are having a hardware problem as most of the HD2's that people have that show the symptoms Sam mentioned can not be fixed with software solutions. Bu there is the occasional anomaly that someone manages to bring back to life but even m,ost of them eventually completely get "stuck" and then they are useless.
As for what to do. You can take it or send it somewhere to replace the mainboard for you. Or just buy another HD2. That is it short and sweet.

so whats the update blahblah 13233?

Thanks guys with all the help possible, I went to a T-Mobile store and asked for a replacement, it should be coming in 2 days. I had to pay 5$ Shipping. So when I get my new phone I gotta give my old phone in some container or whatever and mail it to htc or give it to any T-Mobile store Thanks guys with giving me ideas. The people at T-Mobile said it's a hardware problem like the guy stated above. Oh well, I hope it doesn't happen again.

So, is my phone bricked?

So, up until recently i used the Nexus-HD2 Gingerbread rom with NAND.
I installed HardSPl, and MAGDLR and switched to another radio, cant remember what type. Anyhow it functioned perfectly and i have used my phone without any problems for 2-3 months.. up until yesterday when i took the phone out of my pocket and found it with a white screen, turned it off and it went right back into the white screen, so i thougt ye, lets just do a install from scratch, but that was not so easy as i first tought.
This is what i have tried so far :
Flash radio with USB (error 270 corrupted image)
Flash MAGDLR (error 270 corrupted image)
Flash HSPL (error 270 corrupted image)
Wipe29 (error 270 corrupted image)
Install with SD card original Norway build (tried 3 different stock rooms) stopps on "Update radio V2" and reboots into HSPL
Myttw without any succsess..
Tried installing clw.. no succsess..
What more can i possibly do? I have found posts regarding this problem before, but no ones seems to find a solution. I have concluded that it is a Radio problem.. I can also read people saying as long as "HSPL" are working you are good to go, and the phone is not bricked...
Can anyone help me out here?
Currently the phone starts and stopps in HSPL, i CAN use the USB cabel, and the text changes from Serial to USB..

could be hardware issue.
put it in a plastic bag in the fridge for 15 minutes, then take it out and reflash stock ROM from SD.

just to make sure, you got your stock ROM thru the HTC support page right?

At the OP, it sounds like you have what is referred to a stuck radio which seemscto be a hardware problem. Your HD2 is not bricked but you will probably have to put another mainboard in your HD2 to make it work again. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Yeah if you can't flash a radio you're screwed man.
What does it say in the bootloader?
If it says HSPL you might be super-screwed because it's warranty void

It kinda says HSPL in my bootloader
But it is hardware related right? So all in all it is something the warranty should cover? It has nothing to do with the HSPL and MGDLR, its plain hardware related aight?
Can i buy motherboard someplace? Cause the repaircenters have sick prices..

Doesn't matter, the warranty is void if you flashed HSPL, lol, they know damn well you didn't mess up the device but they still make you pay for it.
a motherboard is a ***** and half to replace if you're not "super solder master 5000" but if you feel up to the task I'd get it online somewhere on the cheap.

Try this to maybe save your ass.
put it in bootloader and try to flash stock SPL using HSPL4.
Do you have the tmobile spash screen?
what else does it say in bootloader?

I've also had success before taking out the battery, leave it out for a couple hours, then try to flash stock ROM again. Don't ask me why but I've had failed flashes work like that before.

Let me see.. øhm.
It's not the T-mobile version, saw a instruction video on the net on how to replace the motherboard, didn't look toooo hard, i think i could make it, but i cant find motherboards, and HTC customer service said thay would not ship one for me, as i had to deliver it to one of their service centers.. and they wanted like 200 $ just for the board, wtf..
When i boot i get into HSPL, i can see CotuellaHSPL 0x50, also SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE. And also "Upgrade ROM code error. Please try again.".
Tried flashing back to stock SPL, but that did not work either..
Il leave the batt out for some hours and see if i get lucky.. if anybody have an extra board i would gladly purchase it.

Il leave the batt out for some hours and see if i get lucky.. if anybody have an extra board i would gladly purchase it.
