Unable to Load Hard SPLv7 or new radio...

[zerocool00]

I am posting this outside of the bricked thread in despiration. I posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1250132&postcount=1164 for intial help.
Quick recap...
Had no GSM on boot...device info showed no radio or protocol versions.
Tried HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a first, which might not have been the best choice. Load something (SPL i guess) then it stopped and tried recovery serval times.
Currently stuck in bootloader screen (tri-color) with this displaying:

HERM100
IPL 1.01

HERM100
SPL 1.40Olipro

Before flashing SPL was 1.11. I was instructed by digger_de to reload with new radio and select SPL 1.40 when asked... tried going to hard SPLv7 using latest CustomRRU...I selected FORCE SSPL (as per the guide) in the menu and tried to upload. Sits on "verify info on the hermes" screen then error 260 appears.
So I tried just to go to the new radio 1.41... I select SPL 1.40 from the menu..click update...get a progress screen that sits at 0% for a min or so...then error 262 displays. What do I do next?
Do I need to try KITLS or whatever, do I even have it? or do I need to use mtty and if so what commands?
I have read through the wiki and several threads, but I have not found something just like my situation.

I appreciate anyone that can point me the right direction.

Thanks,
Michael

Quick question, the latest radios have CustomRUU 4.3 in them (i know because i repackaged them).....check the wiki. When you select your SPL version do you tick "Is it HardSPL?" ??

I think your problem can solved easily, as you have Olipro's hard SPL already in place, this allows you to flash any ROM. With the phone on the boot loader screen (the coloured bars), connect it to the PC and then run one of the radio upgrades from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms - I currently use 1.40.30.00. If asked, select 'Hard SPL'.

If that doesn't work (i.e. you can't flash), you can try extracting the .nbh file from the radio upgrade, copy it onto a blank SD card, rename it to HERMIMG.NBH and reset the phone with the card inserted - see http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing for more information.

If you have any further problems I would strongly recommend that you spend some time reading the wiki - the answers to your questions are more than likely there.

I am having exactly the same problem as the op. When running Mtty get the same results just different checksums. (I have IPL-1.04)

When I flash just a radio rom it freezes. Does not matter if I do it via SD card or via PC.

Starting to get a bit frustrated with this and starting to get a bit too technical for me haha.

If anyone has any other ideas please let me know.

Cheers

Yessir...I did try that way. No go. Just sits on 0% for a min then phone restarts and PC (WinXP SP2 with .net 2) pops error 262 or whichever saying connection error.

I hope it is that easy. I appreciate your comments. Currently I do not own a SD card, but as soon as the plane lands this evening, I'll have one if you think that is the way. As for reading, I have read so much here over the past few weeks, it is crazy. That is part of the problem, there is tons of info here and on the wiki, some seems outdated, and as a new user, I wanted current instructions just to make sure I did everything correct.

We don't want the forum flooded with dead devices thread.... all the knowledge about dead devices is on the thread above. Please take your time to read and don't post desperately.

Closing this one.
