Reflashing HTC 8525 but how??? Bricked Hermes

[clawunf]

Okay, well for some reason a month ago my 8525 unlocked was not recognizing the sim card anymore.... sometimes it would work and sometimes it wouldn't... when I boot up it says no GSM.. after searching around the net I guess what the phone is doing is called "bricked" so what I tried to do is use an utility to unlock the phone again.... that didn't work because it would get stuck at a certain percentage.. my next step was to try to reload the OS with the rom from HTC to try to see if I can manage it work....but it gets stuck at 11% with error 242..... now when I turn on the phone its just with the 4colors ... .also I don't know if at this point the battery charges... anyhow im stuck and I don't really know what to do.... is anybody familiar with reflashing this phone???? Would you be able to provide the necessary link and steps to get this phone up and running? :O

Sounds like your radio rom has gone fizzle.... No rom will fix this.... If its still under warranty you could see if there is a HTC official rom cooked without the radio rom ppart, ask someone to cook one or cook it yourself, eload that and then do a warranty claim. The radio rom is the most sensitive part of the device and the best anyone can say is to either flash a tock rom (which you've already tried) or flash a radio only rom. Would be good to know what radio you were using and try that. You should find the radio roms on the wiki.

Good luck...
