Do you mean you have a bootloader version 1.06? If so, that is what I just did about 2 days ago.

Simply go to the TyTN wiki and find the list of ROMs. Get the Cingular ROM version 1.30 with the 1.04 boot loader. Flash that, do the unlocker thing that is stickied in the upgrades forum for the Hermes, then you can upgrade to whatever ROM you wish. I recommend the 1.09 bootloader ROM by HTC. It has the best performance out of all of them and it is now possible to downgrade if you want again.

BTW, once you unlock in 1.04, it stays with you nomatter what ROM you flash.

Good luck :P

Not true.
Once you CID unlock, you can flash ANY rom, but bootloader 1.04 will not stay.

That is exactly what I meant, thanks Pof.
