I don't know what happend, but after I try to unlock and mount ext. rom, my device, keeps in the Orange startup screen for a while.

After that I must to do a hard reset, after the Install of programs (I supose from ext. rom) an error appears, saying The file: \extended_rom\autorun.exe does not exist. After that I need to do a soft reset to use my device. All seem to be ok, except some things about orange (I'm using it for voda, so dont care)

If I try to mount & unlock the extended rom after the hard reset My screen goes to the orange startup screen and hang it there...

I don't know what I must do know to try to access to the extended rom.

Even If I tray to restore a backup, my device hangs in the same point.

Please help me, If you can.

My device is an SPV M3100 (unlocked with pof method since 15 days).

I have the contents of the extended rom, of a previous day that I do a backup:

AutoRun.exe

AutoRun.exe.0C0A.mui

Config.txt

HERMES_SP_28_08_2006.CAB

MT_PC_Hermes_OrangeRO_REG_060612.CAB

MT_Shortcut-MMS-Hermes.CAB

T_mm1lib_DLL.CAB

But I can't put this files, because when I try to unlock the ext rom my SPV hangs, and I need to hard reset it

Each time that I try to unlock the ext rom my device needs to be hard reset.

I have a friend with another device like this.

can I extract the rom from this device and upload to my device?

Thank you in advance

@gsmland: try adding the registry keys manually instead of installing the CAB file and see if it helps:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gsmland:
it's the same ... :(

I can see how a folder of attachments was located in \Extended_rom folder, maybe the extrom is full :S

I check store attachments in the SD, but now I can remember if by default it choose extrom or the SD.

So I need a Spanish SPV ROM update to solution my problem?

try to rename or delete \windows\preautorun* and see if it fixes your problem. If not, I remember there was some tool to format the extrom... but can't seem to find it now, try doing a search yourself and probably find something.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gsmland:
Also I lost the video calls option :mad:

Can this be enabled by registry?

I suppose all the cabs in the extrom aren't executed correctly and I loose this feature
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
video call is reenabled after running the cabs on the extrom
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gsmland:
I have located the files like preautorun* in windows folder. ¿now what I must to do, hard reset or soft reset?:rolleyes:

I just installed Resco Explorer, but I can't see the extended_rom, so I can't format it.

If you remember the utility to format the extended_rom please say to me.

Note, that each time that I try to unlock, my device hangs in the orange splash screen and I must to do a hard reset :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gsmland:
I investigate more in my issue.

After hard reset, preautorun.exe is executed, this seem to execute some cab files , that are in the rom. After succesfull install of this cab files, the preautorun try to execute \extended_rom\autorun.exe But in my SPV the extended rom is not mounted by the system automatically and this show the error that autorun.exe is not found.

Well, I create a normal folder in \ with extended_rom name and I put there the contents that I have of a previous backup of the extrom. Then execute from windows folder preautorun.exe and now after the "rom" programs are executed, the fake extended_rom cabs called by autorun.exe are installed correctly.

I don't understand how after a hardreset my SPV isn't able to unlock an mount the extrom to execute the cabs inside it.

How can I investigate more? I need some clues to try to mount & unlock the extrom or try to investigate, why the system can't do this after a hard reset

Thank you in advance...

Just bought a Cingular 8525 and applied the hack.

I just bought a Cingular 8525 phone.

Steps I have taken:

1) Downgraded to version RUU_HER_Cingular_1.30.502.1_1.11.00.00_wwe_cws_ship.exe ( version 1.04) of the boot loader. ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/Shipped_Complete_Updates/RUU_HER_Cingular_1.30.502.1_1.11.00.00_wwe_cws_ship.exe

2) Applied the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe

3) Copied HERMES_MountALLExtROM.cab to the Phone \

4) Ran the update, selected YES for the option and it installed successfully.

5) Turned off using power waited 15 seconds and reset the phone.

6) Turned off the phone and inserted a TMOBILE SIM (old Blackberry phone) (had to put the unlock code 22051978 in)

7) Everything worked flawlessly.

Now the question is Is it safe to upgrade to Bootrom 1.06 again and will it stay unlocked ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/Shipped_Complete_Updates/RUU_HER_Cingular_1.34.502.1_1.16.00.00_wwe_cws_ship.exe

You didn't mention running HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe which is the part that actually sim-unlocks your phone. Since your phone works with the TMobile sim I think you actually did do this. You should check using mtty to ensure that your phone is SuperCID before you upgrade the rom just to save you headaches in the future.

Just to make sure you're clear - the extROM unlock is different than the SIM unlock.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] PostDeals:
I didn't run the 2a but I ran version 3.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=283750

DO I still need to run 2a if I ran the cab file?

Hermes Extended ROM Unlocker & Unhider v3

Works in ALL ROM versions, but you need to CID Unlock your Hermes first if you want to UNLOCK the Extended ROM (you don't need to CID Unlock if you just want to unhide the ExtROM):

HERMES_MountALLExtROM.cab

Also if I put a SIM from another phone do I always have to enter the 22xxxx unlock code or that one time I did for my Tmobile is good enough? I was able to make a call and my sim did work from Tmobile.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] PostDeals:
Nevermind I ran the HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe and it unlocked successfully. Just to confirm I tried the Tmobile sim again and it worked fine. Not sure why it worked before I know I never ran the executable. Also the V2A.exe worked on my v1.06 firmware.

Thanks again you guys rock.

Do you think if I clear the phone (hard reset, erase all installed software) it will lock it again? Anything I need to be aware of that won't work with the unlocked sim?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
@PostDeals: plain and simple, you will need to unlock the extended rom everytime you hard reset or install a new rom, just by running the cab file.

The steps to CID unlock, are only needed to run once. Check your CID from mtty to be sure you did right, if you're not SuperCID complete the steps again.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] the archer:
Has anyone got any ideas; i unlocked the extended ROM a few weeks ago with no trouble at all, i could then read and write to it. Since then i have hard rest the device, i have run the CAB file again to unlock the ROM but it is still locked, if i try to delete a file from it the device locks up. I have also edited the registry manually, but with no luck. The device is a M3100

running the orange ROM 1.23.61.4, radio 1.16.00.00 and is superCID.

HTC TyNT to SFR V1605

Hello,

I just by a HTC TyNT (French rom 1.18.256.2) It work with SFR, but without TV and visiocall. Is it a good idea to flash it with the SFR ROM (RUU_Hermes_1.23.163.5_1.06.00.00_VodaFR_FRA_Ship.exe) ?

Is it possible to add some .cab files in the extend ROM to make TV aund visio works ?

En français où je suis un peu meilleur, ca donnerait celà : je viens d'acheter un HTC TyNT "blanc". Avec ma puce SFR, Internet explorer et les mails par outlook foncitonnent bien. Mais pas de portail Vodafone, pas de TV et pas de visio. Dois je flasher avec la ROM proposée en téléchargement sur SFR entreprises, ou l'installation de quelques .cab dans l'extended ROM peut-elle sufire pour récupérer le portail Vodafone et la visio ? Si oui, quelqu'un a-t-il une copie de l'extended ROM SFR ?

Merci d'avance, thank you very much

Pascal

I understand that we can not add our own CAB to the ExtROM due to the signing problem but it is possible unlock the ExtROM then edit the "Config.txt" and delete a CAB (like the Cingular TelNav and GetGood and ExpressMail).

I want to be able to do a Hard Reset without having to do the quick soft reset to bypass all the crap Cingular forces. This will allow me to still get the Wifi/MMS/keyboard etc... CAB to install still automatically.

Found my own answer in a sticky, suprised no one flamed me.

1) will I be able to update the Radio only to 1.20 or 1.21 and then update the ROM to the most recent Cingular (1.34) w/o affecting the radio?

It would also be great if you could provide your recommendation as to which Radio 1.20 or 1.21 is better in your opinion. Look forward to your thoughts, appreciate the time, thanks....

P.S. any recommendations as to the best/stable/fastest ROM and Radio combination there is to use in the U.S.A. (extended ROM will modifying it), thanks again.

Ok I have been playing and took out some crao from the Ext Rom successfully. I also found that MS .Net CF 2.0 and Opera Mobile are signed so I could put those in the Ext Rom okay.

My question that I can not figure out and may not be possible is after I run the disable security hack that I found to allow unsigned software without error messages , then can I make a folder on my SD Storage Card with some sort of autorun and config file with all my unsigned cabs and run it al at once that way instead of installing ALOT of separate cabs. I tried and just making a new config but the autorun file still points to the real Ext Rom and not my storage card folder.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I am a super ultra NOOB!:
Hi everyone,

I rooted my brother's HTC Desire Z from Bell by following these guides (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/HTC_Desire_Z:_Firmware_Downgrade_(Gingerbread), http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_vision). I rooted it for the sole purpose of being able to sim unlock and everything worked fine.

Now my only problem is, I don't know how to update from Froyo 2.2 to Gingerbread 2.3. I tried searching for software updates from the phone settings, but nothing turned up. I want to update it because some apps won't run on 2.2 and I don't want to use a custom rom because my brother will just get confused from the new ui and ask me a bazillion questions.

Also, the rom I am using right now is the stock rom of htc dz, but from a different country (I forgot to backup the original). Can anyone provide me the stock rom (rooted?) for HTC Desire Z from Bell (Canada). I don't think factory resetting it or hard resetting it will help cause the rom will remain the same.

One last question, if I unroot the phone and everything, will the phone remain sim unlocked?

Sorry for being a noob and thanks in advance.

when it started happening again, i installed Wifi manager app and used that to connect.

now it started working again.

i uninstalled busybox, but still no luck.

here when i boot into safe mode, system ui crashes, so no way to check if wifi might work.
