Prophet IPL/SPL 3.08 won't Downgrade - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

Hello everyone,
I am here to ask for some help from the experts.
I already read a lot in this forum but could not find any working solution.
My Prophet was upgraded to IPL/SPL 3.08 and won't turn on unless I connect +5v pn pin 1 and ground on pin 6. Doing this I can go to tricolor screen.
I tried to flash IPL/SPL 2.20 but after the reboots it comes back with IPL/SPL 3.08.
Any ideas how to downgrade the IPL/SPL ?
Best regards to you all and a warm thank you for the quality post in this forum.

Downgrade IPL/SPL 3.08 sorted
I sorted this in a moment of clarity.
Steps:
1. Got a working WM5 rom into the Prophet
2. Connected ActiveSync
3. Got prophet SOFT SPL into the phone device root.
4. Run SOFT SPL. Got a white Screen (Witch is normal. This is the SSPL bootloader screen)
5. Flashed IPL 2.20... OK
6. Flashed HARDSPL... OK (I supose SPL 2.20 can also be flashed)
Thevice unbricked and working fine.

congrats and well done
its even more satisfying when you solve it your self yes?

Can you please provide links for the SOFT SPL and HARDSPL files? Thanks men

Wizard is dead ! help!

Hello everybody.
After i flashed the Radio ROM 2.69.11 to my Wizard..
Its broken, freezes on bootup and wont run.
the screen shows the following:
IPL: 0.3
SPL 1.03
OS 1.3.1.13
--------------------
How do i fix this problem?
Thanks
//Daniel ..
IPL 0.3? What did you loaded into it...
The Radio ROM may be too new for your IPL version...
If warranty is not important, Go to the Wizard Upgrade section and read the stickies, use Button's 1.05 ROM to unlock, then upgrade a newer IPL and SPL.
I see i made a mistake..
its ipl 1.3 sorry..
How i installl Buttons. if i cant use ActiveSync?

Put it into bootloader, then flash from there.

Ipl 1.XX Spl 2.xx

I follow instructions on updating and unlocking G3 wizard using button 1.05 I downgraded rom, I did Lokiwiz when the phone rebooted I got Ipl 1.XX Spl 2.xx, I reran a second time and got the same Ipl and Spl, What am I doing wrong.
I don't think you are doing anything wrong, run it one more time and see if everything is okay after that.
These little monsters are tricky buggers, some people are good after one try - others two - you just may be one who needs to run it three times.
Good luck

Nothing to worry,sometimes Button's Rom 1.05 takes more then once to get both IPL/SPL same,keep on flashing the button's 1.05 for a couple of more times,till both ipl/spl get the same 1.xx,or you can try xda_minis_launch rom,it also helps in some cases,only after you have both ipl/spl 1.xx,then use lokiwiz tool to SIM/CID unlock the phone.

error 260 update error [HardSPL upgrade] newb question

I am trying to do the HardSPL upgrade on an orange spv m3100 as per http://www.mrvanx.org/thg/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=16&Itemid=26 I have the lates version of WMDC running on windows vist and can sync etc no problem
When i go through the process it shows current image as 1.23.61.4 When i carry on in brings upenter bl.exe on the phone. The phone then goes into the bootloader screen and the WMDC shows disconnected
The programme hows verifying the information on your hermes Then I get error 260 update error cant connect
The current bootloader says.
HERM100
1PL-SSPL by Des
HERM100
SPL-1.09.ds
Any ideas and help would be grately appreciated
thanks in advance....steve
Plz help
my phone shows following details
SPL-1.09.ds
when i upgrade to HardSPL 2.60, it does upgarde but when after restarting it again shows the same version of SPL
i am now unable to soft reset my phone
and one more problem i am facing is that my phone shows HERM200while before this problem it was HERM100
this problem arose after i tried to downgrade to MFG bootloader
before that i had SPL 2.30
plz help
fcwdadmin, as you have sspl.exe already running (known as soft SPL - 1.09 des) format 2Gb or less sd card FAT32, put the .nbh file of Hard SPL V7 on and rename to hermimg.nbh . Reset to bootloader - hold power, ok button above flywheel and reset with stylus. Follow the prompts. This should put Hard SPL V7 on your phone. ONLY DO THIS IF YOU HAVE Soft SPL INSTALLED...
Go to bootloader to check, it should read IPL - 1.04 and SPL - 2.10 oli.
You should now be able to put any rom on from the Hermes section. I recommend using the sd card method for that too.
Cheers...
the bootloader says:
HERM100
IPL-1.01
HERM100
SPL-1.04
Is that the same thing again ??
Many thanks in advance
No, you don't have Hard SPL V7. I'd suggest going to the upgrade section and downloading the right Hard SPL. Its a sticky at the top.
Hard SPL V7 is the safest SPL to use as it offers a measure of safety that you don't otherwise have, making it at least possible to fix up your os if something goes wrong during a flash.
Read post 1160 on page 116 of the Hard SPL thread to find instructions on how to install it using the sd card method.
If you try to upgrade your os at the moment you stand a greater chance of ending up with a non recoverable brick or, at the very least, an agonizing amount of reading to just recover the os.
Hard SPL WON'T stop things going wrong but it offers a chance of recovery. V7 is the best for the person just interested in flashing roms occasionally (daily) so I'd suggest you get it.
It should read when you finish IPL - 1.04 and SPL - 2.10 oli.
No exceptions...
Cheers...

I've been trying to find help with this everywhere, but none of the steps seem to work for me. Should I consider the phone brick now cuz I can't get Hard SPL v7 on? I was able to go up to 1.40 using CID unlocker, but have been stuck since then.
Can you get the Hermes back into today screen?

No brick. I was able to get to SPL 1.40 and have been able to flash other ROMs. I've just read too many posts that says v7 is the way to go for stability sake.
Download Hard SPL V7 from the Hard SPL thread, go to page 116, post 1160 of the same thread for instructions on how to install using the sd card. YOU NEED TO FOLLOW THESE STEPS EXACTLY... One thing wrong & it won't work.
Afterwards, you can use these steps, dropping the steps using SSPL.exe (Soft SPL) to install roms. I find it much easier & safer than using the pc.

HTC Touch not booting after trying CID unlock

i have rogers htc touch, after trying unlocking using ELF USPL , when i power on only see HTC Logo and then it goes off, i try loading new rom but still same problem . Please help
What is your IPL and SPL?
IPL is 2.21.0002
and
SPL 1.11.0000
I had the same problem...took me 3 hours to figure it out..
1. on Bootloader, re-install a ROM that works (go back to WM6 or WM6.1)
2. when it working, install USLP 1.11
3. DO NOT RESET AFTER...
4. install USLP 3.14
5. then you can install any WM6.5 ROM
For some reasons, the Rogers Touch has some difficulties to upgrade directly, even if it's unlocked...
Good luck
Michel

Thats a great tip to the community, I will refer back to your guide if I met with anyone with troubles using Rogers.
...thanks...
But, after reading a lot yesterday, seems that the USLP 3.14 is a ''battery eater''...
I'm testing it now..I will see in a couple of days if it is the case!
So far, it looks like it's using approx 2% of the battery per hour...
Definitely, you should always use 3.10.
I had a bad experience with 3.14, it takes up half of my battery after 5 hours of almost no usage.
i'm confused. .... i also have a rogers htc touch as well and i want to flash a custom rom onto it.
(my IPL: 2.21.0002 and SPL: 2.21.0000)
First, i know it has to be CID unlocked... using >> Elf 1.11 USPL ?
Can i use HARDspl ?? What is the difference between USPL and Hard uspl ??
Because i read something about ..... " HardSPL : This modified bootloader allows a much safer flashing process to take place since it reduces the chance of permenently bricking your device. It also removes the need to CID Unlock the device since it ALWAYS reports SuperCID when flashing. "
After a CID unlock and soft reset, the phone will reboot into the old ROM (Rogers, in my case) if i have not began flashing a new rom ??
Some advice please... thanks!
Use the guide written on 4th post.
Its located on this thread
Cheers.

HTC ELF night mare of smart mobility

Hi All,
I need your help in urgent!!!
My ELF GSM infor:
- DeviceID: ELF011000
- CID : DOPOD701
My ELF worked fine before I tried to upgrade its IPL from 1.11.0002 to 2.26.0002, then this problem occur. Because a WM 6.1 ROM requires to have IPL 2.27.0002 and SPL 2.28.0000 so I kept continue upgrade the IPL/SPL to 2.27.0002 and 2.28.0000.
I tried to flash my ELF, from bootloader mode, with these ROMs:
- RUU_Elf_DOPOD_chs_1.11.706.1B, this ROM I got from a China forum, it is my device original ROM
- RUU_Elf_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.11.707.1B_4.1.13.42_02.93.90_Ship.exe
- RUU_Elf_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.17.707.2B_4.1.13.46_02.97.90_BLUE_Ship.exe
- RUU_Elf_HTC_Asia_HK_WWE_1.15.721.3B_4.1.13.46_02.97.90_BLUE_Ship.exe
- ESSential_4_5
- Onyx_jr_4_4_2_Light
They are all 100% successfull but the IPL/SPL unchanged (2.27.0002 and 2.28.0000) and the device still loop at smart mobility, can not jump into OS.
I did try to use unbricker ROM and goldcard (with original ROM or unbricker ROM inside) but the ELF still stuck at smart mobility...
Please give me your advices, what should I do (except buying a new phone)?
Thanks for your time!

I tried to flash back the 1.17 version, after 100% successful, enter bootloader, the IPL 2.27.0002 and SPL 2.28.0000 still remain!?
Please tell me how to do!
Thanks for your time!

After flash back to official ROM , enter bootloader and check ipl/spl first.
Normally, if you flash ipl/spl (not hard spl) when you flash back to the official ROM the ipl/spl will back to original. S/R - wait for boot to WM if OK then do H/R again. And flash ipl/spl again - enter bootloader and check ipl/spl again (changed or not) if OK after that I recommended you flash Onyx ROM. I used it for long time and no trouble.
Hope, it's can help you.
Dear ELF341,
Thanks for your reply!
After 100% successful loading the original ROM, my ELF restart and loop at the China Mobile screen... When I enter bootloader, the IPL/SPL still remain as IPL 2.27.0002 SPL 2.28.0000
I understand that when we flash the original ROM, the IPL/SPL will roll back to its original version, but mine is so strange?! Does this mean that:
- My ELF's flash ROM is fail or locked at the region for IPL/SPL so that whatever ROM I flash (these ROM contain ILP,SPL,OS,radio..) the IPL/SPL unchaged?
- The original ROM is actually not match to my ELF?? But I already flashed the other ship WWE ROM and also the unbricker ROM, they all loop at smart mobility...
Please help me!

How you flashed ROM ? By RUU (PC) or used microSD card. I recommened you to use RUU (PC) follow step by step. Sometime when I used microSD card to flashed ROM , it's successful but cannot boot, after that I flashed Official ROM by RUU and unlocked the phone again it's back to normal. And your official ROM, you must check with your operator or distributor because in different zone it's use diferent ROM.
Dear ELF341,
I only can flash via PC RUU, I don't succeed in SD card way:
- When I copy the *.nbh file into SD card, then enter bootloader, I just can see the checking SD card content string displayed very fast, then the tri color screen.
- When I create a goldcard and copy *nbh file into it, enter bootloader, the brick ask for 'upgrading SD image', I press power button for it to start download but it hang at 'downloading from SD' with a blank download status bar.
Actually I bought this ELF from a man on my local site, so I don't know where is the distributor...I used the mtty and usb monitor to check for my device infor, then search internet for my original ROM, I only can find in a China forum that match my deviceID/CID....
For my case, I really don't know why I can not change its IPL/SPL version? Please help me!!!
Thanks for your time!
well u hav to rename the nbh file to ELF0IMG for SD card flashing to work.
