Problem upgrading Radio, stuck at 0%

[chicharon]

Helo everyone, im currently in limbo about what to do..

i've been using the official HTC WM6 rom on my 8525 with radio v1.40 i think.. i've been loosing signal 2 to times daily. I upgraded to Radio 1.57, everything worked much better then 48 hours later the radio went dead.

i've been using 2 different WinXP PCs but both have the same results so im sure its not the OS..

I've been reinstalling different OS without any problems but always reports NO GSM, i've tried running SSPL-HERM from within WM6 and run the flash from the radio 1.54.07.00 firmware here on XDA-Dev but still 0% progress on the "updating the rom".. error 262 update error..

The phone is using HRM100 IPL-1.04 SPL-2.10.Olipro

Could it be:

A - bad block? if yes, how do i fix it?
B - phone is bricked?
C - damaged radio (physical hardware)

Any help would be great!

I have EXACTLY the same problem....! Now I am worried that I'll get busted on the Warantee rap despite it being the offical T-Mobile release for WM6 for HERM300! Mine stopped working after 12 hours. I have a HERM300 and cannot flash the Radio back. Be careful... I think it's a bad block or something permanent. Trying to flash it back to WM5 and send it back for repair bit it's not looking so good at the moment. Will help you if / when I can.

Seems like all radio's starting to break :(

I didn't even flash mine and it is broken, can flash everything except for the radio part.

now using it like a normal PDA, using internet through bluetooth with my old phone.

Just 10 months to go before I can get a new phone, I don't think it will be HTC again, never got support from them, only from this website.

i found the best way to flash is by using the sd card method, I always use this method to flash my vario II

tried it, but freezes at like 10%, how do i go about repairing bad blocks?

[chicharon]

i tried the SD card method, no good.. i checked the unit, no bad blocks =(

How did you check for bad blocks? Wanna do the same for mine. Cheers.

Try to use an earlyer RUUwrapper after exctract the .exe file. It solved my same problem. I tryed to flash Schaps 4.00 and stoped at 0% I extracted the 4.00 and the 3.60 roms and I overwrited the 4.00's ruuwrapper with 3.60's ruuwrapper and I launched it (4.00) I can flash with that ruuwrapper without problems ;) I hope it works to you too ;)

I think your problem is bigger, because if you haven't got gsm signal than maybe your Hermes has bricked... :(

Have you ever dumpeb your ROM? Because if you have the dll-s befor brick than, if I know well, somebody can solve the problem with a service cable...

Is it me or are suddenly lot's of TYTN's losing their radio en IMEI, i lost mine too :( now it is just like a pda, using my old phone with bluetooth for internet. Impossible to flash the radio. Os only works fine.

Yep! Dunno why. GSM appears to be dying, Just got mine repaired in the post from T-Mobile. Just did a quick MTTY check on it (info 8) and there is BAD BLOCK on it already!!! Repaired???? Not so sure. Should I risk HARD-SPL and flash the rom from WM5 to WM6?
