My Hermes is still showing No GSM. Please inform me if I got something wrong.

I have tried to upgrade the radio rom from SPL-1.40:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1321011&postcount=1337

That's wrong because HERM_Radio_Only_1.41.00.10_CustomRUU should be upgrade from SPL-1.04, right?

Because I have stuck on the tricolor screen, so I need to re-upgrade from HERM_Radio_Only_1.41.00.10_CustomRUU with the same choice of bootloader, right?

And then, I have succesfully upgraded to 1.41.00.10, but also showing No GSM, and the SPL is upgraded to 2.10 olipro after by using HardSPL V7.

And I can see "Upgrade instructions
Just download and execute these to upgrade; however it is recommended that users install HardSPL before flashing these radios.
" in http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms, then...I thought that I have doing right to upgrade the radio rom to 1.43.00.00.

Yes, I have upgraded to 1.43.00.00, but my Hermes is still showing No GSM. So I found from wiki, I found http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick, in the first line of the table, yes, I can boot the OS and no GSM, so I flash Hard SPL and update the rom from 1.43.00.00 to 1.40.30.00, but it showing No GSM also.

Then, I tried 1.07.03.10, no GSM also.

After that, I found I have missed a important sentance, "You can now do radio only upgrades in Bootloaders other than SPL 1.04.". Then, I try to found how can I downgrade SPL from 2.10 to 1.04. Thanks for Martinhdk and shogunmark, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1330247#post1330247.



down to 1.10 by choosing bootloader, not success....
after use Force by SSPL, success!!

and then down to 1.04 by choosing bootloader, not success....
first time not success when using SSPL....
second time also....
down to 1.04 by chooing bootloader again....not success
down to 1.04 by chooing bootloader and Hard-SPL....success!!!

Now...not HardSPL anymore!!!!

Then, I downgraded SPL to 1.04 successfully, checked by mtty also. Then, I can start to fix No GSM finally.

And then upgrade to 1.40.30.00 by method of RUU

but I can remember that, Upgrade instructions
Just download and execute these to upgrade; however it is recommended that users install HardSPL before flashing these radios.

install HardSPL V7, and then now is SPL-2.10.Olipro

After that, run HERM_Radio_Only_1.40.30.00_CustomRUU, choosing SSPL or bootloader version, failured sever times

When choosing the HardSPL and bootloader version SPL-2.10 in the second time....success!! But it is still showing No GSM.....

and... the PPC always cannot detect the USB connection....

What shoud I do now?:confused:
Do I made a big confuse on the concept of upgrading?

Please give me a small tip.....I really read many and many threads but....:(

I just want to use my PPC normally.....

I can see that you have certainly been searching the forums so hopefully others more knowldegable than me will help - rather than tell you to look even more as they so often do here on this site :( when the problem is simply inexperience for most of us.

In the meantime have you tried following the "No GSM" instructions on the Hermes Wiki here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems#problem5 ? It looks like this will need even more reading but hopefully it will help. I am afraid I am not familiar with this procedure but others should be able to offer support.

I must admit I thought HardSPL was OK for all radio upgrades - but perhaps you have read more than me.

Good luck
