Any other way to flash radio than SD card method?

Hi everyone,
Thanks for all of the good work happening her in these forums. It’s really amazing how much information is here. I have the following situation and wonder if anyone can help me sort it out.
I have a running qtek with an un-working radio. I have the developers SE ROM 1.2 installed and it’s running but very slow. The system can’t detect the battery and its charge. The radio is off and will not turn on. I tried to install the O2 4.21 radio update using the SD card using the repair file downloaded from your site but no luck. It stops after it reboots and start the upgrade process with the dreadful 1% can’t flash error. From what I read so far the problem hover around the radio not being able to detect the battery power so it stops the flashing process. I tried changing the upgrade file and to do it many times but still always stops at 1%.
One way I didn’t try is copying the upgrade file to the windows root directory and tries to upgrade from there instead from the card. I don’t know where to find the 2 monitors files needed to be installed there before the upgrade. Anyone knows where to get them from?
Is there any other way to flash the radio using the SD card method (I am traveling and don’t have the cradle with me.)
Thanks again.

Have you tried fixing it with the following?
http://xda-developers.com/repair.zip
Hope it helps.

I have exactly the same problem as ahmedateeq. Runnung the repair.zip files as suggested by beeheij just results in Radio Stack Upgrade failure at 1% every time the XDA soft resets (the only way to break this loop is a hard reset). I have tried two different RSU upgrade versions, but to no avail.
What else can be done?

Did you try to turn on your GSM using the bootloader, by Holding power button then Soft reset the unit, then if you see the logo "Bootloader 5.15" press the calendar button, then you will see the GSM menu, try to select GSM ON then press the action button( the middle of navigation key), when it go back to the menu then soft reset again, then check if it is working or not..Please telme the version of your unit RSU and RUU... thank i hope this will help you.
:?

Did what you said - I was able to turn on GSM in Bootloader (though there was no message to confirm) - but this hasn't improved the situation. I still get the upgrade failure at 1%.
My RUU is SER1.2 (based on O2 3.17.03. RSU is (WAS!) O2 4.21
Any more ideas? Is it worth trying to copy the upgrade files to the Windows folder on teh XDA and running it from there?
Thanks for your help.
Geoff

I tried switching the radio on as suggested, but it failes.
Can we try the windows root directory install method. I need to know where to get the 2 monitors files to be installed with the rsupgrade file. Any one know where to get them.
Any other suggestions (Gurus help needed here)
RUU is SER1.2, O2 3.17.03, RSU O2 4.21

Thanks Qman,
I have this file already and its installed, but I dont see the 2 monitor files in the programme b directory. Are they included in the rsupgrade cap file and if yes which one is which?
Thanks again and still waiting for some creative thinking how to solve this delmma that hit so many members.

Yeap they're included in the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB!
What I would do is copy the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB to my device and run it from there and if the upgrade fails do a search for the needed files and relocate them manually.

The KEY to the White Screen / Radio Upgrade / 1% Hang

I am writing this because the previous posts were very confusing to me and I think, made it seem more complicated than it needed to be. Probably because there are so many variables to this puzzle and it sucks having a potential $300 paper weight.
My apologies if step on anyones toes by reposting this. It seemed like a very pressing issue that A LOT of people are having.
It's not that big a deal, if you have the key.
The problem:
After an unsuccessful radio stack upgrade my XDA had the white screen. Then the unsuccessful upgrade due to the 1% problem.
The situation:
I purchased an unlocked T-mobile, upgraded to the ppcpe2003 4.00.05 off the Yorch site. I am using an AT&T sim card I was experiencing some dropped calls so I thought I would upgrade to the latest AT&T radio stack. I mistakenly ran the upgrade while connected to my Active Sync/cradle connection. Needless to say, the upgrade did not take and I had a dead XDA.
After reading various forum posts I decided to go back to my original t-mobile ROM, luckily, I had saved the nb1 file to my computer using the XDA developers latest tool. After using the bootloader to install from the sd card (holding the power button during a soft reset), I got the perenial white screen. during reboot I saw only the 3.56 (I think) with the radio version indicators coming up blank.
Without that original ROM file I don't think I could have pulled off this save.
Tools:
Hardware:
(1) SD reader
(1) SD Card
(1) Direct Power cable
(1) Syncing Cradle
Software:
1. Your original ROM (I think, it might work with an upgraded one)
2. Radio Stack Upgrade Files (monitor, RSUpgrade, etc.)
The Solution: (long version)
1. I had the White Screen of death.
2. through a series of soft resets, pressing the volume button ( read that in one of the forum posts) I finally got the Today screen to appear. During the boot process I still received empty radio stack info.
3. I had obtained the REPAIR files from this website and prepared those onto an SD card, which was in the unit. The xda immediately went into T-Mobile Upgrade process. I am not sure if the unit went into repair mode because of the sd card or because it was in the start up menu (read further for explaination). DO NOT OVERWRITE THE CARD!
4. the upgrade finally started its process and I got the 1% stoppage problem. After numerous trials and tribulations I was given the solution by MrDollyMaker from this forum.
!!!! THE KEY IS THE FACT THAT YOU CAN USE THE START MENU WHILE ITS IN 1% HANG !!!!
5. While the 1% hang is on the XDA, I clicked the start menu, and got into file explorer. I navigated to the /Windows/Start up/ menu on the device. I CUT/PASTED the T-mobile upgrade program into my documents (just to be safe). And soft reset the device. Sure enough, no upgrade.
6. I put the device into the Sync Cradle and performed a Guest Partnership. Using this partnership, I was able to Explore the device from my PC.
7. Using the PC, I copied the RSUpgrade files from the new AT&T radio Stack A.20.10 from my computer to the devices Windows directory: monitor_ul_bs.m0, monitor_ul_bs.map, RSUpgrade.cp64, RSUPgrade.exe
I tried to put these files on the storage card and do the compying in the device itself but I got an access error. It would not let me overwrite one of the monitor files. That's why the Sync connection to the PC is so critical.
8. I took the device off the Cradle and connected the Direct Power Cord and ran the new RSUpgrade.exe file from the device's Windows directory. Everything went swimmingly.
9. Next I re-ran the ppcpe2003 upgrade from Yorch, and I'm golden.
The Solution : simplified
Simplified Steps from White Screen:
1. get to the automatic upgrade screen by soft resetting / pressing volume button.
2. let it get to the 1% error.
3. use Start menu and file explorer and remove the upgrade from the windows start folder (I'm not sure this is required, but it worked).
4. soft reset the device and connect to sync cradle.
5. establish guest partnership.
6. copy your radio stack upgrade files to the devices Windows directory.
7. take device off cradle and connect direct power cord.
8. run RSUpgrade.exe
9. Upgrade PPC OS
Enjoy.
Comments:
- I AM NO EXPERT, just a guy with a newly fixed $300 ex-paperweight.
- You may not have to delete the Upgrade program in the startup menu. I think it makes things easier because you aren't dealing with the 1% error if your device never gets to that point.
- You may not have to go back to your original ROM
- This is my experience with my T-Mobile device purchased in the US. Your results may vary
remember the key: at the 1% error, your device is NOT LOCKED, you can use file explorer.
I would just like to thank everybody at XDA-developers, Yorch, and especially MrDollyMaker who gave me the key to unlock the puzzle.
I hope this helps simplify the matter.
Regards,
Matt
one happy guy...again.

Personally I think this one should get the sticky as it is so oftenly run into by new upgraders!
And not just because I came up with the menu function still working even with the 1% error death bit... 8)
And thanks, Matt for noting that. My instructions were given both from learning on here what to do (the RSU upgrade copying bit) and figuring out how to get past that damn 1% error bit when I forgot to copy one file over of the 4.

Something I found after testing out this method last night several times by causing a bad RSU install and getting the 1% screen of death....
As long as the ROM installed fine, don't re-install a new rom. Simply when you get the 1% error, go to the menu and get in to your file manager.
From there go to your Start folder inside the Windows folder. From there find the link to the RSUpgrade file and delete it. (Don't worry about deleting a file, this is just a link to it and we will re-install a good copy of this file)
Now, restart your PDA. It should return to your normal desktop but with no phone connection as the Radio Stack is not installed. From here, place it back on it's cradle/usb connection.
Just as stated above by Matt, you need a copy of the RSUpgade installation or a ROM upgrade insallation that includes the RSUpgrade. Unpack this, I used Winzip to do this. Find these files:
monitor_ul_bs.m0
monitor_ul_bs.map
RSUpgrade.cp64
RSUPgrade.exe
Now, using Activesync, explore to your Windows folder on your XDA and copy those files from your Computer to there. They must over write all the old files.
Disconnect from your PC and run the RSUPgrade.exe file from file manager. It worked 10 for 10 when I did it this way so it should work for you also.
The key is like Matt stated to remove the RSUPgrade.lnk file from the Start folder in Windows when you get the 1% death screen than manually copy these 4 files over. What I found was happening when you did the upgrade and got that 1% error, one or more of those 4 files corrupted or were not copied to your device. Once it has upgraded the rom, it seems to delete these files automatically also.
Goodluck and thanks for posting all of your experiance Matt. I'm quite sure it will help others A Lot!

I only have two things to add:
1. RSUpgrade _fails_ much more often without SIM card inside the phone;
2. Your battery should be fully charged (100%) before you start the upgrade, since if it does fail, the battery will stop charging, and the next time you attempt to upgrade, you may not be able to get past 1%, even if you have power adapter plugged in. If you happen to have another XDA, you could swap batteries, or use an extended battery, if you have one.
Good luck...

:shock:
I never do the RSUpgrade with a sim in my phone.... Never failed unless I tried to do it with the EXE thing. But I do agree to make sure you have a full battery, but since it already is at the 1% error, you can charge it with the charger if you do not do anything when the error comes up. just let it sit and charge.
MrDollyMaker

Strange, because at some point I've had consistent failures at 13%, 16% or 21% until I put the SIM card in. Then it worked twice in a row. Maybe just a coincidence.
Also, are you sure the battery charges when the error message is up? The led stays off, and after a while the phone won't even turn on without external power.

Не помог способ с заменой батареи.
The way with replacement of the battery has not helped.

Hmmm, every time I plugged it in or sat it on the cradle(USB power modified as listed in this website) the LED turned yellow...
But as for the SIM, yeah, that needs to be in. I was thinking SD card. I never leave my SD card in but as for the SIM, that I never take out.

I have same 1% flash error but no succes
Thank you guys for your effort.
I have followed all the instructions step by step and I still cannot flash the radio part. It's hanging at the 1% even the files required for flash are in the windows device folder.
I have tryed to charge the baterry from the special connector on the back cause it seems not charhing trough the normal connector but I am not sure how long and what should ne the final voltage.
Please advice what should I have to do before I declare my XDA a normal pocket PC( radio part is not working )
Thanks
Silciu C.

I am now in the same boat. I tried every step as per the instruction in this forum, but had no luck at all.'It seemed I also had more problems as I tried to flash the ROM and always got an ERROR message saying that the system could not determine the data connectivity type (this messsage was in the DOS black screen, wheneever you run the Programme A/ xdatools). However, I could back up the device and the Active sync seemed to be working fine ...
I hope someone could help us ...thanks a lot in advance..

Ok, first thing you need to do is turn your unit on and let the 1% screen of death come on than stop and do not do anything!
Next click in the upper left corner where the menu comes down. It will still drop down. Find your File Explorer program and launch it.
Now, browse over the the Startup folder located in your Windows folder. Inside the startup folder you should find some file refering to install or upgrade like "RSUgrade.lnk" or something like that. DELETE IT. Now let your unit reboot.
Now it should return to your normal desktop. go in and find those 4 files that caused all this hell and delete them. They are as follows:
monitor_ul_bs.m0
monitor_ul_bs.map
RSUpgrade.cp64
RSUpgrade.exe
Now that you have deleted those files, just to make sure they are cleared from memory restart the unit again.
Download a good copy of a radiostack that works with your location from yorch.net. If you wish to get the latest one, I would suggest that unless you are with T-Mobile, stay clear of it. You can also extract these 4 files from an upgrade patch file from your provider using WinZip.
Once you have a good copy of those 4 files copy them directly from your PC to your unit through active sink and into your Windows directory.
Restart your unit to clear any programs out, plug the unit in to your ac charger (not the cradle and not connected to your pc) than using File Explorer locate RSUpgrade.exe and run it. This will restart you unit but should have no problems upgrading your unit.
If you prefer, after you get it back to desktop, stop and charge it than copy the files over.

Safest way to upgrade the ROM is using the SD card method. It is more reliable and doesn't get Errors caused by activesync.
MrDollyMaker

MrDollyMaker:
SD method has not worked for me so far...
I am not able to patch 5.17 nor downgrade to 5.15.
I used xdarit and osimagetool to write to the SD card without any luck.
Could please share some light in this matter?
Cheers...

Have you tried using the OS Image Tool to write directly to the ROM?
Also, when you used XDArit, did you select that it was 5.16+ image you were writing? (when you used/didn't use the patch)
MrDollyMaker

MrDollyMaker:
Thanks again.
Yes, I selected the 5.15 ROM image to write to the SD card.
The OSImage file only accepted nb1/ nbf file types. I was not able to write the wallaby patch tool nb2 file nor wallaby 5.15 ROM image nb0 file through Osimagetool.
As you might remember, I always got an ERROR message about activesync connection whenever I tried to flash directly to the device ROM.
The first step I believed is to patch the 5.17 then either downgrade to 5.15 or go straight with the nk.nbf flash.
Is this correct?

I am in situation that I still have the 1% error even I have followed all the instructions from the forum.
The power led is not lightning and I can confirm that is not charging the batery. I have tryed to charge the battery using the special hole from behind but still no success.
Do you have an oppinion?

Ok, since you have a 5.17 BootLoader, you can't use the 5.15 image write. You have to use the 5.16+ due to it is coded differently. When you write the SD card, include the patch for the 5.17 BootLoader as well with the rom so it can bypass the security feature.
MrDollyMaker

T-Mobile/MDA/O2/yadda yadda....
You know, I feel like I should be getting paid for all this advice! 8)
(J/K!)
MrDollyMaker

thanks for the advice again.
I am getting confused, really. Just repeated the same thing over again and again the past 3 days and suddenly I managed to patch the 5.17 for the second time (after over 50 tries). THis time I kept the SD with the patch tool and got another SD card to try to write 5.15 in it. After 4 hours, I managed to got it written then eventually downgraded the wallaby to 5.15. Now, the challange is the device is stuck in the wallaby screen everytime we turned it on. I had about 10 different ROMs originals as well as cooked ones from the kitchen, but had not been able to "write" one in the SD card. I used all OS image tool as well as xdarit, without any luck. the device wont recognized the ROM in the SD. I think the Wallaby 5.15 is working fine as I tested with the other SD card with the patch tool in it, the device still recognized the card as a diagnostic card.
I cant think of any mistake that I might have made in the procedure as I had (I think) followed every step of the procedures and had read different postings over and over again. :?

The Solution to the GSM ERROR Issue.ON XDA (QTEK 1010)

Hello all.
i have been searching the forum for the solution of this problem, some guys suggested solutions that involve a file that is no longer available, upgrade.zip which is aparently a radio upgrade(or downgrade) made for the SD card (a startup.exe in a startup directory).
Well, having said that, i had to solve this problem last night, and here it goes.
after trying original ROM upgrades, all versions, 3.14,3.17,3.18~4.
nothing worked.
finally, i grabbed a copy of xda-developers's 1.1 ROM
and guess what!!!
the phone started up, gave me the screen allignment and the whole menu!
sure enough, ran file commander(that version did not have file manager) copied the RSU files over to the windows directory, and the exe file to the windows\startup and rebooted the phone.
it stopped at 1% again... NOW REMEMBER, i had an EMPTY BATTERY...
the 1% ERROR is a battery issue, that turnes into this issue when the modem upgrade FAILS.
so here is what i did. and you be the judge.
i ran active sync from the phone, and it did connect(while the upgrade program is still running) and left the room/
in 10 minutes i came back and the upgrade was completed, so here is what i think
i think that the RSU will still run if it was in the background!!! even with an empty battery(connected to the charger ofcourse.
i did not have much time to do anymore testing, but i am sure that someone with the same problem will make the time. the key from my experience is that the proccess will complete if it is in the background.
there u have it.
good luck.

i forgot to add that the upgrade i used was taken from yorch's page and it was the latest Tmobile, i had to downgrade later to an older version that i have to solve the network issue, but it was done(the downgrade) like a charm, i had a full battery then.
here is the Tmobile RSU link v6.24
http://www.yorch.net/downloads/ROMS/TMOradiostackupgradeR624 .zip
a 1.26 MB file.

Hi!
Now I'm taking a try (unfortantely I've found only the special edition rom 1.2).

No success with SE ROM 1.2. Where could I download 1.1 from? Found it nowhere.

One more thing: maybe the version of active sync counts? Mine was 3.8.

Hello to all, and mr stefan,
I upgrade my qtek 1010 with SFX56 windws 2003, it also upgraded my RSU, which is not working in Middle East. Kindly advise me how to downgrade or upgrade with other RSU. Thanks

your problem is in the network selection, search the forum for the proggy that changes it from 1900 to 900 and you should be OK.
i hate telling anyone to search i know how hard it is, but i do not have a clue where the proggy is, meanwhile, if i run across it, i will point it out,
if not, go to the bootloader, select GSM and change it from there, you will loose all data so backup first,
Good Luck.

search for "bandwith switch tool"..... good luck.

here it is on wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BandSwitchTool
tell us if this fixes your problem.
if not, you will find links to radio upgrade on

for a great resource.
good luck.

never knew you can post as guest
well, again, let us know what happens.

hi all
I just picked up a XDA from a guy who screwed up the radio stack upgrade (it cosy me @$80 USD ) and im now on a mission to fix it...
using your advice I used the XDA developers rom 1.1, this got the phone to start up with the working today screen and menus etc....
I install/copy over the new RSU upgrade files over and reboot
but here is where i get a bit stuck...
I cant get into active sync fast enough before I get the 1% RSU upgrade error, so the upgrade wont run in the background, it just sits there....
how do you get into active sync before the error comes up?
cheers

Radio Stack Failed? HERES HOW TO GET YOUR XDA BACK ON TRACK!

(mods i would appreciate if you could make this a sticky for people... ive worked long and hard trying to get this thing working again)
Ok so heres what happened to my XDA which proberly happened to yours.
I went onto the 02 site and got the latest radio stack upgrade for my xda, but i didnt have the sim in my device so once it finshed and restarted the xda it crashed because there was no sim in it. So i hard reset it.
Causing it to hang on the boot screen showing the G & U letters on the side for about 4 minutes before booting to a blank screen with the keyboard icon in the corner.
*** Please remember at the moment my status LED isnt working showing there is no battery (but still booting etc - P.S i have installed a new battery - no diffrence) ***
Heres how to get it working...... remember that everything takes longer because the XDA lags like mad.
Ive created this guide myself ive took nothing from anyone else info ive done this from scratch, it will need to be done everytime the machine runs out of power (hard resets).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* when i put " + " it means AT THE SAME TIME e.g button1 + button2 = keep pressing them at the same time.
** I refer to the directional keypad centre button as the "OK" button.
Make sure you have the correct RSU Version from here :>
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_GSMError
Download it and put the files onto an SD card.
1. Boot up the device
2. keep pressing the OK button + volume button until it shows the today screen, please note there will be no titles on the screens, HENCE NO START BUTTON.
3. Then press the contacts button + THEN OK a few times, then press the OK button this should bring up the start menu
4. CLICK programs, file explorer, select the SD Card. Then Copy RSUPGRAD.exe to : my device > windows>start up.
5. Copy the remaining 3 files to the : my device > windows
6. Soft Reset Device
7. Click on start (on the upgrade util) it will then restart the device because theres no LED for the battery (hence the 1% then fail).
8. Once started it should then start up as it did when it came out the box giving you the windows setup screen.
9. Go into file explorer and delete tha flas util file from the startup.
Thats it!
- Remember if you hard re-set the device again it will need to be re-done, i dont know how to solve this problem LONG TERM, im giving my XDA to 02 to fix it...... been as its there screw up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks Everyone

Does this actually flash the gsm radio? If it does then why does it need reflashing following a hard reset?

No it doesnt re-flash it.............
All i know is that it fixes it and many people have had the same problem but had no replys so id thought id help them out :roll:

Where are he diffreneces to the instrucions on wiki????
Stefan

huh? so your saying someone has already written the instructions?
Do you have a link? it will be intresting to find out how i can get my LED working again so the system will be able to work once more.
EDIT: IF THE BATTERY LED/STATUS IS UNKOWN (as in my case)
"Maybe the upgrade will stop again at 1%, this may occur when you have an empty battery. "
Does not apply to you............... hence why my guide overcomes the one on wiki.
If you have had the situation happen to you, then you would undertsand.

would it be possible to use the xda developers 1.2 special edition ROM instead of the 1.1 version for this procedure?thats the only rom i seem to have found.

Boogie, I think you need only the radio stack not the rom if I read the post correctly. The special edition rom contains NO RADIO STACK.

That´s not 100% correct. I´ve noticed, that some ROMs wouldn´t boot up so that you can follow the procedure.....

hey guys this is my 1st post to this forum, but for the last year or so I've found it very helpful.
I was experiencing this same issue it would just boot up and hang on the welcome screen for what seemed like an eternity. I gave up and just left it booting up and finally the today screen came up. This is what I tried and it worked. All of this was after a hard reset when I tried to upgrade the radio stack and it fell into this infinite loop of 1% and fail and reboot. I had read a couple of the procedures for doing a radio stack upgrade but here is some of what I did.
In one of the procedures it says to copy the files to ur ppc windows directory and to copy the exe file to ur windows startup directory. I figured I would bypass that in some way. After I finally got to the today screen and used my pc to copy the files to the sd card, I copied all the files to the windows directory on the device and ran the exe file from the windows directory. It worked like a charm and my ppc was back to life. It no longer took for ever to get passed the welcome screen. I hope this helps some of you that have this issue

Prophet STUCK at BootScreen (2.10.0001 G4 Orange)

My Prophet Stuck at bootscreen , with displayed
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
GSM 02.07.20
OS 1.0.13.21
It happened after I tried to downgrade it.
PLEASE, tell me how to recover it ?
I had wizard before, and have some experience with backup/downgrade/upgrade/IMEI Change. Also I have backup of the phone, made by aWizard.
But this time i missed line that downgrade is NOT for G4 (2.xx.0001) ROMs. Is it possible to downgrade G4 (2.xx.0001) ROM ? Or is it possible to use iWizard w/o downgrading ?

Problem solved ! Please, stick this post up - I saw A LOT of people in this forum to ask how to resolve situation with "STUCK ON START-UP SCREEN" ... no one full answer. So ... solution :
1 step. Download one working for YOUR G3 or G4 version ROM. You can easly recognize the difference
G4 ROM on startup screen looks like
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.13.0001
Look at last digit - if it's like 0001 - its G4 ROM. If it ends like 2.00.000, or just 2.00 - then its G3 hardware version.
So G4 (2.XX.0001) users can use any G4 ROM like this one ( tested by me ) -> ftp://xda:[email protected]/JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship.zip
G3 (2.XX) users can use this ROM -> ftp://xda:[email protected]_AKU23_023021_P12MB_PDAMobiz_v2307.exe This ROM is not tested by me, but I have read a lot of good responses about it.
2 step. First prepare the phone - full charge battery. After that, hold CAM + COMM buttons ( on the left side of the phone ) and reset it. You will be bringed to so sadly famous "three colors screen". Now connect your phone through USB and start Updating program that you have downloaded before. Sit back for about 15 minutes ( dont get nervous when it stucks on 80% ... it had to pass it after time). If everything goes smooth - after reset you must to have working phone again.
2A step. If you get error message ( like I did first time )
ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID
You have to make few steps, a little more complicated then pressing NEXT buton couple of times.
First, download this cracked version of ROM Update Utility program. Can be found here -> ftp://[email protected]/Prophet/Tools/ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip , then
1. Download and install WinRAR ( http://www.rarlabs.com/ )
2. Click with right button on program that updates ROM ( like RUU_Prophet_G3_2151327_AKU23_023021_P12MB_PDAMobiz_v2307.exe ) and choose Extract to...
3. Replace in directory you just extract archive file ROMUpdateUtility.exe with the same file from the archive you have downloaded early (ftp://[email protected]/Prophet/Tools/ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip )
4. Now, run ROMUpdateUtility and this time there will be no WRONG VENDER ID error.
Good Luck

I extracted this to my "c:\orange" drive. This means I have a file called: "C:\orange\ROMUpdateUtility.exe"
I also have a file called "C:\orange\JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_shi.exe" I extracted this and I have a file now called: "C:\orange\JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_shi\RUU_TOOLS\Prophet\WWE\ROMUpdateUtility.exe"
I replaced the 1st file over the 2nd. I ran the file "C:\orange\JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_shi\RUU_TOOLS\Prophet\WWE\ROMUpdateUtility.exe" after I replaced it and I get the following message: "ERROR [240] : FILE OPEN" and a message about not finding the file.
Please help!
