Hey there,
got a "new" device by T-Mob and wanted to unlock it again. So I did, and unlocking worked so far. Now I want to flash the original shipped Rom by T-Mob Germany, but this doesn't work. Device changes to bootloader and than the computer tells me to check the cable. Tried to flash the rom with changing to bootloader and than start flashing, too, but same error. I tried to flash the unlocker-radio-rom again and that works.
Now I need a solution to flash original T-Mob shipped (WM5).
Any ideas?

Update: Flashing with Custom RUU and the nbh-file from original Rom works. But still no 'normal' flashing possible.
Is it possible to set back SPL 1.04 instead of 1.40.Olipro (by the way nice work Olipro, but not for warranty-reasons :-) )

This issue has been documented to DEAT, the reason a standard RUU program doesnt work correctly is because there is a modified (and FAR SUPERIOR) bootloader on the device and the RUU doesnt understand what it is.

CustomRUU can detect it because olipro has built the support for the different SPL versions into it.

It is highly recommended that you update to HardSPLv7 (SPL version 2.10.olipro) (http://www.mrvanx.org/hermes_guide/HardSPL) as this protects your device against a load of possible ways to really damage your device.

By following the guides i have compiled on "how to safely flash WM5 (http://www.mrvanx.org/hermes_guide/wm5)" and the various downgrade/upgrade guides on my site (http://www.mrvanx.org) you might see how much better CustomRUU and nbh editting is.....also i recommend you read the wiki before going any further.

Thank you so much! Will try it tomorrow! I know, that the newer SPL-stuff is better, but I'm not so much into it, because I just run the WM5-Rom and wanted a SIM-Unlock. Because of warranty reasons (on 2nd device) I want to get back to the original SW SPL and so on. But I really think of installing WM6 when my device is completely back alive :-) Thank you
