put your device in Bootloader mode... hold the OK and POWER buttons and hit the reset hole once... wait for the tricolor screen, now you can release the other two buttons... IPL and SPL are your bootloader... well in fact is the SPL.

Wanna know more... read the wiki pages for Tytn

total newb

Hey guys,
im a total newb at upgrading and all that
im about to attempt my first upgrade from WM5 to 6. i have a jasjam.
upon reading the instructions i tried to install HARDSPL into the jasjam.
I connect to windows mobile device centre and then run RUUWrapper.exe and i follow the process as shown by mwvanx. However as i hit the last "next button" and then the phone goes into bootloader mode.. i lose connection and it says "error 260: update error. The update utility cannot connect to your PDA phone." please check that it is connected properly etc
and then it makes me exit

Thanks in advance for any help guys!
hopefully i can get over this hump and start upgrading =D

The strangest thing is happening to me while attempting to flash from my storage card. I put the phone in bootloader mode and it takes (IPL-1.04 / SPL-2.10.olipro). Then on the bottom Serial shows and it never goes to the next step and ask me do I want to flash the new image.

I put the att original on the 2gb storage card over and over and over and renamed it HERMIMG.nbh over and over and over and just am flabbergasted. The phone is not bricked, it just refuses to flash again.

Does anyone here have any solutions or suggestions?

PS - I have formatted the card to fat32 and I have checked it for errors. The HERMIMG file is not in a folder and is on the root of the storage card.

Hey,
Still a bit curious how to actually revert
eveything back to factory settings.

By upgrading to another ROM i lost my
Original Symbols for Typing, i.e. ÅÄÖ,
my games (man i love Bubblebreaker and Cards).

Was looking at the Downgrade Guide, all links
were too old so that didn't help.

Cheers though, great guide!

To get to your original settings you must flash the stock rom, whih would be WM5. If it's the keyboard configuration games you want - you can download Advance Config 3.3 and it has an option or the type of keyboard. For the games look them up under google and I'm sure you'll find them.

1. download hardspl v7 from the first post.
2. extract ruu_signed.nbh and rename it to HERMIMG.nbh
3. copy it to a microsd card, make sure the card is formatted as fat32
4. download sspl-herm from here
5. extract SSPL-HERM.exe and copy it to your phone.
6. insert sd card and run sspl-herm.exe on the phone.
7. you should see the tri-color screen and then it should change to this
8. press power button to start flashing
9. reset when you get the msg that its done.

Well you could send them to me and i'll repost the site again, since the scumbags who hacked it messed it up.
