What's the risk of downgrading HardSPL - P3600 Software Upgrading

It's my firs post here, so first I want to say "Hi" to all of you MDA users ;]
As stated in the topic:
I own Trinity (exactly Orange SPV m700, if this can make any difference).
It's equipped in WM6 Black v3.3 by Akeo (05/05/08) and (unfortunately...) Radio 1.16.00.00 and (i guess even more unfortunately..for me) HardSPL by Olipro v1.3
The problem is, that i can't use GPS (as for i read) with this radio...
Did some reading, and found how-to about upgrading radio...
Easy procedure, so couple minutes and done... I checked Device Info and simply looked like that -> ' wtf? because radio version didn't changed...
Did some more reading...
Found the info that some Trinity equiped in HSPL by Olipro 1.3 don't want to cooperate when it comes to updating radio...
The solution is simple - downgrade HSPL to 1.2, install radio and get back to HSPL 1.3
What I want to know is - what is the risk of playing like that with hardspl...
Can I just simply "brick" the device?
regards,
C.

Follow this and you will be ok. I have used it to switch from Olipro's to Des' hardspl.

uhm, i guess you forgot to paste the link you were suggesting to follow
anyway, i followed THIS and some other things found on xda...
Now I'm happy user of SPV m700 with radio 1.5.08.11 WM6 by Akeo and finally WORKING (hell yeah!) GPS navigation...
i'm bloddy happy with it, and hope it will work fine for ages ;]
cheers

hardspl is: SPL-1.56.0000 (HOW TO ULOCK?)

All,
I am ready to unlock my Kaiser (TyTnII) but my spl version is : SPL-1.56.0000
How do I get this to *.OliPof??

HardSPL. That's a very basic question and tells me you haven't read much. Read the wiki completely and all the stickies (at the very least). As a noob, I also spent a few days reading the site before I did anything. If you don't know what you're doing, you can brick your device. Good luck.
I did read a lot, And here is what I have found so far:
HardSPL v6, sets the SPL to *.olipro, My version is *.0000
As far as I can figure out, it is not about Hard SPL, cause this is the Startup bi the bootlaoder, whith which you can flach the rom version to a different version.
Now my question was: how do I updat this, but I already found it, exept the link does not work (tool name is: RUUWrapper.exe)
did I mis anything or did not understand this?

Guilf,
I do know what I was doing, the link you gave me, is the right link (and the only link I found to the Kaiser update, the rest is hermes, and that will not work.) I updated the BootLoader, and followed the rest of the steps, and now..... I am the happy onwner of an UNLOCKED TyTnII
Thanks!!
(and I will donate ofcourse!)

No problem. Didn't mean to seem as if you hadn't read. Glad it worked out. Have fun flashing. Too many good cooks for one PPC. It's addictive!
LOL,
and thanks

Help Unlock Radio 1.27.14.32

I've been looking now on how to unlock my orange uk kasier for about 2 weeks. I'm going to use Olipro's or jockyw2001's unlocker BUT in order to do this I need the original radio version of the phone which is 1.27.14.32 I've looked everywhere for this and just cant find it and reading some threads it seems like I'm not the only one. Can some one please help.
As I see it without this radio version I cant unlock my phone and therefore cant add other roms as the phone may sim lock and as this is a works phone I doubt I'll be able to ring myself to get the unlock code and it may raise my firms eye brows when I ring them to do it if I 'balls up' and as I've only had it 2 weeks i understand orange wont provide the codes for a miniumum of 3 months
Please dont flame me, I've read hundreds of posts but just cant seem to find this ( or is there another way round this )
I had the same radio ROM on my Kaiser (Orange branded)
I used Radio ROM 1.27.12.32.
All went well & the device runs fine (no sound loss issues that some people had when trying 1.27.14.09)
If you did have ROM compatability issues you could upgrade to the WM6.1 ROM after unlocking.
I think all these files are available in the wiki.
check the rom development section and the wiki, you should be able to find a list of radio only flashes including that one.
Thanks Mr B, Cosmic Blue believe me I have looked and this radio is not anywhere.
Mister B when you 'upgraded' your phone could you still get notification of answer phone messages left on your phone, I've 'upgraded' a hermes before which was on orange and never got this function back unless i put a genuine orange rom on it ?
Hard to answer that one. I had my orange answer phone canceled via orange services prior to flashing.
Your other option is to dump the rom from your device & extract the radio to use for reflash
I think you'll find the notification is in the main rom not the radio.
I remember a few people having problems after flashing cooked roms.
Had some posts on this & a cab file with the required dll to fix it.
Might be worth doing a bit of searching on this.

Thanks Mister B, found the orange cab by Rabdo so nearly there now
Denco7 I'd checked that one already and no 1.27.14.32 which is what I'd really like as I know it works well on my tytn ii.
guess I'll have to look into dumping it then
1.27.14.32
I have that radio version (1.27.14.32) in my Orange UK TyTN II. I've dumped the ROM but I can't figure out how to reconstruct just the radio! If someone can help me I will will upload it.
I also had the same radio 1.27.14.32 and could not find it for download but after some reading I came across the Radio Mister B mentions above 1.27.12.32 and it worked fine (including the answer phone notification) with the Dutty rom I was using I think it was the (DualTouch V3). I've since upgraded to the L26 V9 rom with radio 1.58.25.17 and its still working fine, although I haven't had the chance to check answerphone notification.

ive got kaiser unlocker.zip just not sure what next
First off, I don't think you used the search. And second. The wiki is filled with alot of the information that you are looking for. So before posting, do check the Wiki about your phone. Check under software in the link below. It will tell you how to both HardSPL and Unlock your phone.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser
of course i searched. ive been here a while, i know theres a lot of sad people who like to have ago if you dont. ive already been flamed.
secondly i went to the wiki page because i kno theres people who hate it when you dont. i searched down and came across the kaiser sim unlocker the prblems i am having is with radio confusion and hard spl compatability clarification. i have the sim unlocker and written instructions on how to use it
the problems i am having is my confusion over what type of hard spl to use and i cant locate the correct radio for my rom to reflash after ive finished with the patched radio thats provided with the radio
all i was asking for was help.

Aha! By saying that you can't find the correct radio for your ROM, would I be right in saying that you are currently using 1.27.12.29?
If so then don't panic - it's not available to download, but when you need to flash back your radio as part of the unlock procedure you can use 1.27.12.32 instead.
For basic unlocking you can use HardSPL v1 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679 (as the unlock procedure assumes that this is the SPL you are using it's probably best to use this one rather than the later v3.xx versions (don't worry, you can flash them later)
So, in the following order:
1. Flash HardSPL v1 (once this is done go in to the bootloader to make sure it says "SPL-1.0 OliPof")
2. Run the unlock procedure
3. Start flashing ROMS, but be warned - it can become addictive!
Good luck.

Kaiser doesn't call after 1 call

Hi I'm new around here. Thanks to the NOOB install guide I could install a great rom from this site. It worked great... untill I made a call. I called someone and after the call I couldn't call anyone untill I soft reseted the phone. I tried to install another rom for the kaiser and I even tried the wm 6.5 rom. They all work but after 1 call the call function cuts working. Is this an common problem?
Could someone help me
you're obviously new here, so welcome!
somehow, i think you're under the impression that we are mind readers
did you search here on the forum? did you read the wiki? which particular flashing guide for noobs did you follow? which ROMs EXACTLY did you try?
what i mean to say is BE PARTICULAR and DETAILED in your posts...and this is a NECESSITY if you are starting a new thread...which really doesn't seem appropriate (yet) because your issue SEEMS to be caused by an unmatched radio version and/or SPL version...BOTH SPL version and radio version must be versions that are meant for windows mobile 6.1/6.5 if you tried 6.1/6.5 ROMs. i have a feeling your SPL is one meant for windows mobile 6.0...another possibility is that the ROMs you tried DID NOT come with a radio (some ROMs do, some ROMs don't) and so your radio version might also be one meant for windows mobile 6.0.
please read the wiki to find out how to determine your radio version and your SPL version...then post back here
you might want to re-read the noob flashing guide also
and to reiterate, always be detailed and always SEARCH thoroughly
good luck
same problem
I have exacly the same problem.
I used Kaiser Unlocker V2.0 Made by Olipro - 2008
The phone actually dials the numbers but there is no sound either out or in.
also when recieving a txt message the vibrate remains on contant.
My Kaiser is running WM6.1
operator v 24.328.1.610
Rom version 3.28.61.0 WWE
date: 05/02/08
Radio Version 1.70.OliNex
protocol version 25.65.30.04H
Honestly i'm less than a neebie! Although an experenced PC engineer, I only wanted to undo the Orange SIM lock before I go overseas for 6 months to an area that only operates Cable & Wireless mobile.
Mentioned above is a note about out of date radio version, the Rom date does seem a little old for WM6.1, what should I be looking for to update the radio?
any advice is greatly recieved.
Thanks
Ian
the unlocker essentially uses a "special" radio+SPL combo that is meant for unlocking ONLY
you seem to still have the said radio version (indicated by the "1.70.OliNex" string)
so verify that your phone is indeed sim unlocked. then proceed to change your spl and radio to the recommended ones for windows mobile 6.1. the unlocking should "stick" after changing the radio+spl combo but do verify before starting and after completing the update.
nice to see you are a PC engineer so you'll have no trouble thoroughly reading the wiki (first link in my signature) and making sense of the wealth of information there on how to update your radio (get a suitable one from the "Ultimate Radio Thread" linked in my signature) and spl.
good luck!
Thanks very much, a temp radio... that makes sence.
Thanks again
Ian

How to install WM 6.5

I tried to instal 6.5 by theese steps but it wont work! gizmodo.com/5281397/how-to-install-windows-mobile-65-right-now
how to do this?
I wanted to install ROM something like this forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517300
what is the problem occurs? explain
When i go to step 15. in this manual: gizmodo.com/5281397/how-to-install-windows-mobile-65-right-now
My HTC stuck in load screen with 0% loaded!
I tried it lot but nothing!
You need to update ur hard spl with - SPL-1.40.OliNex
see
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
I tried it but it`s not working!
I started ROM Update Utility... next..next...then shows my image version (2.03.414.2).. Update To 1.40.OliNex..next.....next....then starts update.. 0% .. and ERROR The Update Utility cannot connect to your PDA Phone....
Don`t know why it`s not working
"Because you're an idiot"
It's Vital that you READ the guides on XDA for flashing your phone.
All your problems are answered in the forum so you really didn't need to post this. Upgrading your phone from a WM5 to 6.5 is a big leap and Don't expect it to magically fix any issues you may already have with the current version of WM.
You will need to learn how to MTTY if you plan on flashing your phone after a 6.5 rom upgrade because it's not as easy as it used to be.
There is a helpful serach function on the forum I suggest you use it before anyone else wastes their breath.
I have bad in english that`s why i cant find the correct answer in search!
And i dont understaand all the abbreviations like XDA MTTY and lots of others.
I don`t have WM 5 but WM 6.1 and its not so big leap ti WM6.5
That`s why i post this!
And i have no problems when i upgraded my last phone to 6.5 and i dont know why i have problems with HTC Diamond!?
SPL & MTTY
You should have used Olinex SPL before even thinking about flashing your phone
Thinking about it now... you should have bought the diamond unlocker as it's a better solution.
You have to use the MTTY method before flashing with a 6.5 rom as your memory space can be changed to acommodate more/less modules for the ROM. If you don't use MTTY then your phone will fail.
