Hi all.
Well, I made the jump to the Hermes.....I missed you ex-wizard guys...LOL.
I was wondering, and have searched with little to no luck, for an easy way to check the bootloader version on my Softbank. I want to start playing with it a bit, but have not been able to determine the bootloader version. I am hoping that I can downgrade to the Dopod 1.04 bootloader rom. My device info reads;

Rom Version 1.23.707.4
Rom Date 7/21/06
Radio Version 1.14.00.10
Protocol Version 32.50.7018.00H

Any help would be appreciated. I did d/l both of the guides, but I am still just a touch confused........

Later............

Put your phone into bootloader mode to get the version, then soft reset
Look here in the wiki to find out how:

Your bootloader version is the number after SPL not IPL

I can not find bootloader mode.

I followed these directions: Bootloader mode: Hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus form this link: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Resets

side ok button is the one closest to the scroll wheel and the power button is the one closest to the top on the right side of the unit, right?

All I seem to be doing is rebooting.

Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks

Sometimes I jump the gun and let go of the power and ok buttons as soon as i hit reset with the stylus try holding the power and ok a moment longer.
