I flashed HardSPL 2.30olipro and it wont boot the OS when I reset, the screen stays black like its still off and the green light at the top stays on, I can still access the bootloader and use MTTY, I have tried flashing various ROMs and the "set 14 0" but nothing works, At the moment I have :
IPL-1.00
SPL-2.30.Olipro
Anyone have any ideas?

Well, it appears you can get to mtty...
Try Task 28 (this usually works when stuck in boot screen - not sure exactly where you are stuck)
or...
Try flashing a new ROM.

Yea no problems getting into the bootloader and using MTTY
not sure exactly where you are stuck
I'm stuck as soon as I turn it on, blank screen like its still off and green light at the top is on the whole time, but not when i go to the bootloader.
Thanks for the help :D

My problem of noot being able to see any splashes and not being able to turn on for that matter is weird, Who knows a way that I can erase all of the phone totally except for the bits that cant be likle the SPL and IPL, Is there any way possible to flash someones dumped rom, and use the wlan fixing method to set yourself a new Mac adress etc.
In the memory map it says the Radio and bootloader are at "0x????????" does anyone know whats under the mysterious question marks?

Have you tried to reflash the HARDSPL?

Thanks for helping me :D
It wont actually let me write over it because it has that protection on it to stop roms overwriting it with an older version, would it work (and be safe) to delete the SPL using the erase command then reset the hermes and write the SPL again?

The SPL area is touchy. If you were to erase the Bootloader, I am not sure you would ever be able to flash anything, since it uses bootloader commands to do it. Check the MrVanx downgrade guides. There are instructions for overwriting the latest HardSPL. It is a two step process, first using SSPL. Give it a shot.

Hey guys,
Anyone got a resolution to this problem yet?
Heres whats happening:
When I turn on the device I get the green led light but nothing shows on the screen at all, I can still access the boot loader the normal way.
- Tried Task 28
- Can flash any ROM but doesn't fix issue at all
- Happened after i updated to HardSPL 2.30, but cant downgrade because I need access to the OS to use SSPL.
Thank you for any help

Hi,
don't know if this will work for you, but it did for me. the difference is that mine wasn't hardspl.
I had the same problem when i was trying to upgrade to WM6 a friends JasJam (i had a USB connection problem). i tried alot of flashing, and the only one that seemed to work for me was the Official I-Mate ROM i got from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=348436
and flashed it after going into the bootloader.
after flashing this, i loaded the hardspl v7 from this one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
and after that, flashing any ROM works perfectly.
Hope this helps.

I'm going to try that but I'm not sure if it will work.
I am already running:
IPL-1.00
SPL-2.30.Olipro
so it will not let me override it with HardSPLv7

Not sure if I can be of much help but I had the exact same problem after a flash, then just booted into the bootloader and loaded a ROM from my MiniSD card (CRCs Rom) and that seemed to fix my problem. I also have HardSPL 2.30 installed

try
cmd>set 16 0
Hope it works, normally when i get stuck in the bootloader its what i do, soft reset, plug it to usb run mty and do that comand. after it says write nand soft reset the device, it should load the os with no problems ^^

I'm a total noob so please somebody help!
