using mkrom with att image - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Is it possible to use att's nbf file that comes with the upgrade instead of O2 3.17rom? I was wondering if i can use that rom in combination with mkrom tools
thanks

WM 2003 OS on XDA1

Hi
Is it possible to get WM 2003 on the XDA 1. ie upgrade the 2002 version supplied with the XDA1
If so is there a step by step guide to the process.
Thanks in advance for any help
Cheers
Ric
I read this message on this forum and would like some help please
"T-mobile WM 2003 for MDA I will be available 29.Dec.03 ???"
Yes it is possible to upgrade your XDA I. I put the T-Mobile Backup-Rom provided here on my XDA I and it works perfectly. How to do it, is explained there as well. But be aware that the ROM provided there is a German one. I don't know how to change it into an English one.

The ENG version is here ftp://tmobile:[email protected]:21 .. but be careful as it contains the upgrade for both RSU and ROM.

EURO Upgrade
Where can i found an european wm2003 upgrade (in english, not in german)?
marco
the versions of wm2003 you can only use are:
v4.00.01, v4.00.05 & v4.00.11 no other versions of wm2003 as of yet the others are american versions.
www.yorch.net
Gaz, ur right but the A,B difference is significant only for RSU upgrades. That's why it's performed with TMO 4.01.00 file as it contains both RSU and ROM upgrades. But if you use Winzip to extract the ROM files only, I don't think it will show this error.
However, I 'm still waiting to see a kitchen option based on 4.01.00, but seems the focus now is on XDA II stuff
Is there any chance you could send me the 4.01.00 file, can't find it anywhere. Ronnie
just check 6 posts higher in this thread :wink:
Your a GOD, thanx :wink:
Hello Biso;
I downloaded the file, right clicked on it and used the winzip options to unzip it to a folder where I found a file named upgrade and a folder named English. I found the folder to contain the rsu, so I did not try to use it as you recommended, and I double clicked on the upgrade.exe file. Unfrotunately the same error message of device a and b came in and I could not continue.
What I am doing wrong.??

Nothing wrong, All upgrades made by operators will do such check and since your device seems to be PW10A then you will always get this error if you use the EXE method.
In the \English directory, you will find a file named NK.nbf which should have a size of 32 MB. After extracting this file, you have 2 options:
1. If you have SD card and reader/writer, put it on the SD card and flash your XDA through the bootloader.
OR
2. Use the XDAtools from this site and make the source is the NK file and the destination is the XDA flash ROM.

Thank you very much Biso, you were of great help. I just flashed the rom and I know I will enjoy it. by the way I changed my device to qtek 1010, to have an extra 32 of ram.
BTW do you know a cool site from which I can change the skin of the phone. I just did not like the TM logo

2003 ROM File, where can I get one?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!
Where can I get the latest ROM of PPC2003?
I currently have the latest offering from O2 in the form of the PPC2002 ROM 3.17.03 ENG with Radio version 4.21.00.
I REALLY want to get the 2003 latest ROM, and also can the protocol version be updated, never see it mentioned?
I have tried yorch.net, but it never cooks the ROM for me, gets to coping ROM files and then I get a page error, tried it on a few PC's. None worked.
Jeff's site is down the this site only has a DEMO kitchen.
PLEASE DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN DOWNLOAD THE LATEST 2003 ROM FOR THE O2 XDA (IRELAND)
Thanks,
Mark
Try
ftp://tmobile:[email protected]/
You have to extract the file using zip and only use the nk.nbf file.
The exe files also includes the RSU Upgrade, but only for US-Users...
This is the newest englisch WM2003 ROM (4.01.00)
HTH
Stefan
Downloading now...
Downloading that file now, so I just extract the ROM image and not the RSU and I'm sorted. Radio Version 4.21.00 from O2 is the latest then is that correct?
What about the protocol version, can that be updated?
Also one last thing, anyone use the XDA for MMS with O2 in Ireland?
Any solutions or best idea what program to use.
EzWAP 2.5 for Xda from yorch.net is the only tool to do mms on xda1 i've come across
also i asume that mms programs the same everywhere

Lose the T-Mobile Stuff.
Is there any ROM that does'nt have all that T-Mobile stuff on it, if not how can I get the ROM to be generic, and lose all the stuff.

You can extract all the operator settings with the ROM tools and you get an "empty" ROM.
(bash setup.sh)
HTH
Stefan
How?
What ROM tools and how, I'm new enough to the ROM scene.
Thanks for the quick reply.
I'm bascially looking to get a blank WM2003 ROM so I can configure it to suit myself and not an operator.

newbie: o2 xda german to English OS?

hello guys,
I was wondering if someone could help me with a step by step guide (or maybe a link to a thread with needed information), how to change the operating system language of my o2 xda?
I currently own a German xda, and would like to have it in English...
thanks for your help!
You can start with this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=5623
HTH
thanks,
but is this working fine with the European 900/1800? since it was created for American market 1900...
yes you can... extract the .exe file using Winzip or Winrar
take the Nk.nbf file, use XDAtool or XDArit tool to burn it on your SD card, upgrade using SD method... then it will only upgrade your ROM not your radio stack
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
from the thread the url points to
so the nbf is the rom for the pda part
and the radiostack upgrade is another file in the
exe file if you dont mess around with the radiostack upgrade
your phone will not get messed with

Sorry for late reply. Dunno why nobody has replied to you yet.
I don't know if you can get a french version of ROM, but the one in English released by ATT for Siemens SX56 (A.30.09 ENG) works very good. I upgraded my Qtek 1010 from version 3.14 to wm2003 several versions cooked in Jeff's kitchen but I have so far found this to be the most stable and convenient. Not only that, many bugs in the earlier versions of wm2003 are fixed. (Multiple Reset Notification bug still exists but it can be handled by scarybear software available free at http://www.scarybearsoftware.com
You can get it if you follow this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=5623&highlight=qtek+wm2003
I discovered that the Activesync method to flash this ROM does not work. The Program A just does not run. I used SD card method. It works.
The ATT release comes with ROM upgrade and Radio Upgrade files. If you are not having any problems with your present radio, never attempt to upgrade the Radio Stack. You can find enough dead devices if you browse through this forum.
Somewhere I read in this forum that the NK.NBF file can be extracted from the downloaded file, however I could not figure out how. I ran the application and quit before it started to flash the device. You can find the NK.NBF file in c:\Program Files\SX56 Upgrade*\...\english\ folder.
You can get the .nbf file out by just opening the .exe file with winzip. At least that's how I did it
Perhaps it can be done with winzip. I use Ultimate Zip and it does not allow it
i just change the extention from exe to zip and the file acts like any other zip file

Extended ROM for T-Mobile UK for Universal

Anyone know where I can find the above.
Have got an XDA Exec running WM6, but will be getting a new simcard from T-Mobile over next few days, and no doubt there will be a few cabs I need from the ExtROM.
Thanks
If you're running WM6 then there's not much point using the apps/settings off the T-Mo extrom. If you really really want it, just download the ROM package off the T-Mobile site and use winrar to pull the ext romout.
Also there's one on the ftp archive but I think it's actually quite old. Check it anyway.
FYI The current T-Mobile Image is on: http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/download_manager_mda_pro.html
