Dear pof

Thank you for your reply.

so i have "locked X01HT" and can try any test.

if i can help you, please let me know.

ROM Ver 1.33.761.3

Wi-Fi ver1.14.00.10

Protocol Ver.32.50.7018.00H

Model No :HERM200

How can i check my CID?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
It would be good if you can provide a usb monitor capture in ANSI text format when you try to flash the experimental unlocker release with softbank CID and get the 150 and 114 errors.

See the bottom of this page for instructions to use usb monitor.

Bootloader command 'info 2', have to connect to bootloader using mtty.exe

See the wiki for more info:

Thanks ron519.

Stupid me! bootloader 1.06 cannot flash a radio upgrade with Magician RUU (MaUpgradeUT_NoID) because it doesn't have 'rtask' command to access the radio bootloader.

So I guess the NBF file is right, but it can't be flashed this way.

And why you can't use the original Hermes updatetool ?

I think some japanese guys used it to downgrade the bootloader with your deletet bootloader downgrade patch. Or i'm wrong ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Probably there's a bug in HERM_Unlock_v2.exe, I don't have any locked Hermes so I haven't tested it with locked phones... anyone else getting the same behaviour as doowop?

The Hermes RUU takes NBH files instead of NBF, I'm using the magician tool with NBF because the radio bootloader uses 'rwdata' command to write to flash, which doesn't check signatures in NBF files.

If I produced the radio update in a NBH file then it has to be signed and we'll get a 'invalid cert' error when flashing it.

The extracted IPL-1.01+SPL-1.04 was published in NBH file format, this file was signed by imei-check but the rgu file they transfered via activesync previously to apply this NBH upgrade hot-patched the SPL in RAM to accept their own signed code, that's why it could be used with the original Hermes RUU.

In preproduction bootloaders (<0.95) the rom format was still NBF (same format as in Universal) and older hermes RUUs take NBF files, but cannot be flashed to production bootloaders because they don't have the 'wdata' command, it has been replaced by 'wdatah' to flash NBH instead.

At the moment there's nothing else you can do I guess.... if I need you to test something I will let you know. Many thanks for your help :)

I have just tried it on my T-Mobile MDA Vario II and no joy!

Everything went ok, I have got 1.04 Radio ROM and it took 20 mins to flash... the error code happened as expected, then i ran that program on the phone and after a minute it said SUCCESS.... rebooted the phone and put my VODAFONE sim in..

said network locked :(

anyone had the same experience?

any suggestions?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Only the sim unlock should not, but making it SuperCID i guess yes. But I don't know for sure.

Read point "11" in my inital post, you have to enter this simunlock code: 22051978
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] kevino:
I take it that this implies if you have unlocked and since flashed another ROM or just Radio then you need to go throught the entire process to make it Super CID, or are you saying that this would be dangerous ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
@kevino: i'm not saying this would be dangerous :D

I just wanted to say that you need to run "HERM_Unlock_v2.exe" while having a patched radio on your device:

- If you have unlocked with v1 and then flashed a ROM or radio ROM, then you have to go through all the process again.

- If you are still running the patched radio from v1 then you just need to run the exe file.

I hope is more clear now... my english sometimes is not good enough to say what I really want to say :rolleyes:

Just unlocked my Orange SPV M3100 (Swiss). Worked smoothly.

Do you work on radio 1.20 so far ? Or stopped on 1.16 ?

Anyway, thank you very much for your efforts. Especially for CID unlock.

As far as u understood, i will have CID unlocked even if i will upgrade to any ROM (fully) right ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Glad it worked :)

I already have a patched 1.20, but the patch is quite different from other radios (patch for 1.13 and 1.16 is 22-byte, for 1.20 is a lot bigger) so at the moment I prefere to stay at pached 1.16.

right, your device will be SuperCID forever :D

I seem to have a problem, in that i have followed the instructions and unlocked my vodafone v1605. when i use mtty it shows as supercid. When i flash to a diffrent rom and then use mtty to check the cid has gone back to VODAP001.

can anyone help?

:an flashing radio tests SuperCID?

Hi,pof!

Thank you for your great job. I had unlocked my X01HT with V1 pathed Radio. And ran HTRM_Unlock_v2.exe to keep SuperCID forever.

Now I want to test if I had succeed to keep SuperCID forever. But there is no Japanese Rom,so I can't flash another ROM (If I flashed another ROM, I can't back to Japanese). I want to know: will I lost SuperCID after I flash a new radio if I unsucceed?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
hi javacoffer, I just released version v2a, which HOPEFULLY will make SuperCID stay forever, as some other users reported problems with previous v2.

As you have already a patched radio on your device you just need to download HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe and run it on your Hermes.

If you can do me a favour, i would really appreciate it:

1) After runing HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe, go into bootloader mode (side ok + power button + softreset with stylus)

2) Right click on activesync icon, select connection settings, and uncheck "allow USB connections"

3) connect your phone to computer using USB port

4) Open mtty.exe, select USB on the drop-down list and then click OK to connect

5) hit ENTER twice and you should see the "USB>" prompt

6) type the command 'info 2' (DO NOT COPY-PASTE) this should show your CID... it should either show SuperCID or 00000000.

7) close mtty

8) Flash any extracted radio rom (a normal one, not a patched one)

9) After flashing the radio, put your phone in bootlaoder mode and repeat the steps 4 to 6 to check your CID again.

If the CID is not changed after the radio upgrade, this will confirm that:

a) HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe is working correctly to set SuperCID forever

b) your phone will never loose SuperCID again, even after flashing a full ROM.

Thanks!!! :D

Hi pof thanks for remaking the unlocker and i have followed what you wrote.

i flashed with patched radio then the new unlocker v2a, it showed supercid. then i flashed with 1.20 radio and again after that used mtty showed supercid.

so looks like it is supercid forever now. but later i will try a full rom and see what happens.

great so far thanks a lot.

It's a magician upgrade utility which uses the same bootloader commands to flash a radio in NBF format that are valid for the Hermes. The file itself is contained inside the zip file with the unlocker, you have to run it from WinXP.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Asukal: flashing process starts, but you get an "invalid cert" error from bootloader if it's not signed with the proper HTC key, the signature is checked when the data has already been sent to the device, that's why it seems that is flashing, but it's really not: it's just filling a buffer and compares signature after the data is on the device. If signature is OK then data is written to NAND flash, if it's not data is rejected and buffer empty again.

BTW, the signature checking code is on SPL.nb and my friend has already hacked it to make it not check the signature, the only step now is to finish writing the haret part that puts SPL into memory (instead of linux kernel) and method to flash unsigned code is here, and method to downgrade bootloader too.... :)

lifechanger: you can go through the all procedure again if you want, but if u just want to CID-Unlock your device there's no need to do it as you already have the patched radio from v1, you should be fine just by running HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe on your Hermes.

1) I have already unlocked my SPV 3100 with v1 of this software but I have since installed the generic tytn ROM. I take if I will have to go through the whole process again since I no longer have the patched Radio?

2) The tytn ROM that Iinstalled is the 1.18 ROM with 1.03 Radio. What ROM would you guys recommend i.e. bug fix wish, performance wise, etc. I have to h reset my device so I might as well change my ROM if there are gonna be any noticable improvements.

3) Aren't you guys worried that future ROM upgrades may include code that will block it from being installed on SuperCID devices?? (Just a thought)

Hi,

I also have a couple of questions:

When i unlock my VarioII with the file of pof,

What happens when i flash it with a original update ROM from T-Mobile

1) hold the VarioII the SIM unlock or must i unlock it again?

2) when the new ROM now has Bootloader 1.06, can i also go back to other ROM´s?

3) holds the Vario the SuperCID (in my understanding the SuperCID is necesassary for up/downgrade of the Hermes, right?)

or is the Vario then locked? and in the moment there is no way to downgrade to 1.04.

Thanks a lot

Markus
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Right, you have to start again if you want SuperCID.

SuperCID is a developer CID, all preproduction devices are SuperCID and this has been like this since the first HTC device. You should'nt worry... and if it happens, then we will do a CID-Locker :p

SIM unlocked forever, you don't have to unlock it again.

Yes, because your device is SuperCID and you can flash whatever ROM you want.

It will hold both SuperCID and Sim-unlocked forever, and you will be able to flash always any Hermes ROM with any CID and it doesn't matter which bootloader version, you will always be able to go back.

I don't have a X01HT and don't really understand what's this annoying splash screen you guys are talking about, I've seen the screenshot that krnnidtt posted here, but it's in japanese and I don't understand it.

I think this is something that SoftBank put in X01HT's ExtROM. You just need to find which ExtROM cab is the one that makes the annoying screen appear in your device and don't let it install (remove the cab name from ExtROM's config.txt).

You don't need to patch never again. Your Hermes is now SuperCID and will stay SuperCID after hard reset, rom upgrades or whatever...
