So... I got bored, decided to start working on it now.

so far it can read the EEPROM from the bootloader, read the MAC from the file and write a MAC to the file, next is to cover re-flashing the file on, should be trivial to do.

With the initial release, I intend to include a recovery EEPROM with it, so if you have a blanked EEPROM and nobody to get one from, you'll be able to load it up, insert your own MAC address and flash it on - the restoration one will still have the TI ACX OUI value so it'll look like a legit MAC if you send the device in.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
Olipro...just sent you a PM, one other thing we noticed, is that EVERY member's MAC we looked at had the exact same signature AND first three numbers in the MAC address. It must be the range of MAC's that OUI assigned to HTC.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Dolphin7fr:
First, I'd like to thank You for those wonderfull informations !

I've got a "Orange SPV M3100" - (HERM100) that works perfectly but I wanted to make a backup of the wifi code just in case I get into trouble with it

I noticed the MAC adress wasn't at the same adress (maybe a difference between the HERM100 and the HERM200...)

here is a screen capture of a MAC adress (12:34:56:78:9A:BC)

I wanted to know if the full backup of the eeprom nand contained the radio firmware ?

Just in case the radio goes out of order, is it a way to restore it ?

Thank's for your job ;o)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
no, the radio firmware exists separately on the radio itself.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Dolphin7fr:
Thank You for your answer

A little more question about Your personnal release of SPL "SPL 2.30 Olipro"

Can we do as before withe the 2.10's release for flashing an OS:

or is it different ?

In last, would You advice to downgrade to 2.10 using SSPL or is it better to stay in 2.30 ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
it makes no odds either way, and yes, that's the correct option.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] SilverBandit:
Many thanks for this post - I only received my Vario 2 on Tuesday and thought I screwed my WLAN up for ever when I upgraded the ROM.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
I finally got it to SPL 1.01 and i get Level = FF, when I did run pof's Sim Unlocker and CID unlocker before, but the hacked radio that came with that wouldn't flash, but the tool said sucess, so what do I do :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] salamatali:

I couln't get my device to superCID, so i got the 1.01.olipro MFG (Its CID unlocked :) ) and made an NBH of that with nbhgen and then flashed that and then used lnb and now my WiFi is working again, Thanks a million to drummer10630 for all the help, and thanks to busstop for uploading his herm1.nb, I couln't have fixed mine without it :D, but the most deserving person is Olipro, Without him I would have never suceeded.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] esmith:
I'm still having problems with this if someone could help me...

I did everything that I seem to understand and in mtty I get to the part when it comes up and says "start NB image download" and it just sits there and does nothing.... how long should it take??

I downloaded someones herm1.nb file in this topic but don't understand what I have to edit... I read what was wrote but I guess it's over my head... I really want to have my WiFi working again if someone could help.

I can connect to a wifi router and it can show as much as full signal but when I try to browse a web page it just says something like it cannot load because the connection was lost even though it has full signal.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
If you can see a MAC addess in your WiFi settings and you can connect to a wifi router, then you don't need to use this procedure. You have a different problem...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] esmith:
Ok there is a MAC address so that means my phone is screwed?? :eek:

No, it means this is NOT your problem, look elsewhere.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ionutz6:
Just wanted to say thanks from all my heart for all the hard work all you guys have done here. I know it has been done by a whole lot of others, but it needs to be said again: THANKS A LOT!!!

I have had this problem with a TyTn that a guy from HTC official service asked me to help with. After a day (10-12 hours) of post reading and googling around, I am so very proud to say that I have fixed the WiFi dead issue according to your instructions.

I must say it didn't go as smooth as you described, drummer, but in the end it worked. For example, I didnt need to go to SPL 1.0.4 in order to go to SPL 1.0.1 MFG. On the contrary, after going to SPL 1.04, my device was no more CID unlock. I did the unlock with Hermes CID Unlock v3a and then managed to change SPL to 1.01 MFG. Maybe I misunderstood smth., doesnt matter, the fact is that it worked by taking the herm1b file from this post and editing the MAC address in hex.

GREAT!! Cant tell you how happy i am!!!

PS. I became very good friends with an engineer from HTC local authorised service. In case this relationship might help any of you guys with anything in terms of knowledge, sources, etc, please let me know: ionutz [at] pdamobile.ro.

Hy everybody,

I had the same problem but with the wizard (orange m3000)

I would lik to know if this trick work with this machine, coz i really want to recover my wlan

thx
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
I don't own a Wizard so I have no way of telling you. You could try to RBMC the NAND on the Wizard and see what you see in a Hex Editor and compare it to the herm1.nb file posted earlier in this thread, but I am not familiar with it's bootloader(s), and if there are any available that let you read that section of the NAND and you will have to modify the method...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] aeayk:

Hi

after downgrading to 1.01 and by using MFG MTTY, when I type the following:

task 32 ( i get level = FF)

password 0000000000000000

set 1e 1

lnb herm1.nb 500a0000 40000

after hitting ENTER (i get Command error !!!)

please any known solution.

Thank you
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
After typing Task 32 (you hit enter) you should get Level=0. If you are getting Level=FF your device is not Super CID which is necessary for using this method.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] aeayk:
thank you very much for your reply.

now I have a super CID and I get Level = 0

however, when I write

lnb herm1.nb 500a0000 40000

after hitting ENTER (i still get Command error !!!)

one more thing, do you know why I keep lossing Super CID status after every attempt to to flash herm1.nb! and I loss Level = 0 and now I'm back to Level = FF for no obvious reason, to me at least ;)

Thank you
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] aeayk:

Hi

I had the same problem (dead wifi after flashing original rom) but with the Trinity

this trick work with this machine?

Thank you
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
Frankly, if we KNEW if this procedure worked for Trinty, or Wizard or any other device, don't you think we would have posted that info? We have tested this only on the Hermes, and after several successful flashes by different users, are pleased it works as long as you follow the instructions EXACTLY. Pof or Olipro might be the ones to ask if this method could be applied to other devices. I suggest you post in those other more appropriate device specific forums and ask them...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] dan1967:
I have successfully changed device ID from HERM200 using the very well documented procedure. Congratulations.

I must say that I simplified the process by using SLP 2.60 Oli straight without the downgrade/upgrade thing.

Cheers,

dan
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
Thanks dan1967, I edited page one to show your results...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] topper.it:
Hi dan, as i wrote here i've a problem with my model number, did you had a problem like mine?

I have a 2.10 olipro

In that case to change my model id back to normal i should do the following things:

1. extract SPL 2.60 Oli Hard SPL v9 Developer Edition with nbhtool.

2. create a nbh with the extracted file changing the model id to HHHHHHH.

3. upgrade my rom using custom RUU and selecting force SSPL.

4. crossfingers

5. edit of the Busstop file with my working wlan mac address

6. upload the file to my dev using mtty.

Is the procedure correct?

Thanks for your answer.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] dan1967:
I had no problem with id no and I do not understand what problem should u have with it;

I just changed it for fun. if u want to do it just follow the procedure as described in here very well by drummer.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. This is confirmation that I am close to my goal because Drummer has given me silimar advice. Only problem is I don't know how to "extract BL 2.60 from Hardspl V9 copied it to my device entered BL". If I don't get instructions on how to do this or what it even means I will be in for a loooooong evening of reading and research! LOL. I have a newborn and its so hard to put in the time that I need to put in to figure this out...and like many of you, I'm crippled without my Hermes! :)

Thanks again!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] markafreeman:
Run RUUWrapper.exe

When it says flash 2.60 click next

Now look in the folder that you ran RUUWrapper from and you will find EnterBootloader.exe and Rapitool.exe

Copy both these files somewhere safe and then cancel the rom upgrade.

Next copy both files to your device and run EnterBootloader on your device.

You should now see your device reboot and you will be in bootloader 2.60

Good luck

thank you man it's lnb but notworking also

Just to clarify, are you typing lnb (small L)?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] HandN:
Hi kaboos55,

After trial and error this is what worked for me;

Copy the BL 2.60 olipro and rapitool to your device and install from your device rapitool. (read post #132)

Now enter BL by taping on ENTERBOOTLOADER.exe you should now see SPL 2.60 olipro

Now uncheck the USB box in active sync and connect your device to the usb cable open MTTY and klik on \\.\WCEUSBSH001 or USB on the right now hit enter to get the CMD> command (you will get CMD> instead f USB>) then type the following:

task 32

password 0000000000000000

set 1e 1

lnb herm1.nb 500a0000 40000 ( lnb is lower case "L")

After task 32 you should get LEVEL=0 if you get LEVEL=FF then you do not have supercid but if you have 2.60 olipro and you installed rapitool it should be good.

After password you get something like this HTCSSuperCID ÔéÜHTCEUSB> now type:

set 1e 1 hit enter and then start typing lnb herm1.nb 500a0000 40000 when you now hit enter you should get something like this:

:F=herm1.nb

:A=500a0000

:O=40000

:L=

start NB image download

I don’t remember what came after the :L= but then it will start downloading the image file herm1 this will take about a few sec. and your done.

Soft reset your device and your wlan should be working.

Remember to hit enter only once after each command you type.

For the rest of us I don`t want to be a smart ass but I found out that it is easy to look over small details.

Good luck.

If the WiFi on your device shows a MAC address, then you don't have the EEPROM problem. The symptom is that WIFi never turns on, and you just get a spinning (wait) circle, then it stays off.
