The root folder means the folder which "holds" all other folders: If your microSD card is on "F:", the root folder of your microSD card is "F:\".

It is on the instructions to make sure you don't copy the NBH file in "F:\My Documents\".

The card has to be formatted in fat32 and empty: should only contain HERMIMG.nbh in the root folder ;)

The NBH image must match the CID on your device: You have a M3100 and there's no shipped rom with "ORANG001" CID, most probably your problem is this.

Hi pof...thanks for ya explaination.

if there is no shipped rom..does that mean..the HERMIMG.nbh file i got frm wiki...it wont work?

thanks agn :)

P.S. yes...i downloaded the Orange one frm wiki...if that doesnt come with ROM...can i flash it with the Radio ROM u supplied for the unlock? rename it HERMIMG.nbh

M3100 from Orange UK has CID: ORANG001
The rom on the wiki is from Orange Romania and has CID: ORANG008

You need to use a NBH file with the same CID on your device.

You can make your device SuperCID to avoid this restriction:
