problem with xda-developer-ser-v12.exe

hi ppl,
i m from indonesia, i have locked xda with :
rom ver : 3.14.13 eng
rom date : 10/09/2002
radio ver : 4.14
protocol ver : 32s54
offcourse i can not use xdaunlock.exe (to unlocked the xda), and i dont have serial cable.
so... i tried to install xda-developer-ser-v12.exe (i hope i can use xdaunlock.exe to unlocked my xda, and got cooler xda with more application ), but after i run the file, the problem is
"cannot find the rom image to upgrade your pocket pc. please download again".
anyone any idea with it???
and i plan to download :
-Radio Stack Upgrade v4.21 (1.54MB)
-Radio Unit Upgrade v3.17.03 (14.9MB)
at http://www.o2.co.uk/business/productsservices/xda/romupgradedownload/0,,113,00.html
can i unlocked my xda with xdaunlock.exe if i upgrade the RSU and RUU with those?
please advice!!!
thanks everyone
regards

it s work
i wake up in the morning, and turn off my laptop, with activesync connected to my xda.
i unzip the xda-developer-ser-v12.exe to directory, and running start.bat
and.....
wooow. it is work.
i can update my rom with xda-developer-ser-v12.exe
my xda finally unlocked, and can use my own simcard.
thanks xda-developers.

I had the same problem but I fixed it by unzipping the file to a folder on my desktop with the original folder names in the zipped file. It worked fin from there!

Hi Jim,
Maybe I did not get the message right- I thot one should always have used Jeff's exe file from the pc; ie clicking on the exe on the pc with the xda in connection with activesync?
It seemed to me that you guys have uploaded the file into the xda and tried to execute the file within the xda. I believe this is wrong right?
Can someone please confirm that to run any of the self installer exe file (even those now in the famous rom kitchen), one has to run the exe from the pc with the xda connected and not within the xda.
Cheers
Vic

Hey Vic, you're right - The exe from Jeff's site needs to be run from the pc. When I did it the first time just opening the exe I got the error listed above. When I unzipped the .exe file (I just opened it from Winzip) and extracted the contents to a dir on my pc using it's folder names then double clicked the start.bat file it found everything it needed and ran just fine. I think before I did this it couldn't find the files in the \English folder. - Jim

Hi Jim,
Thanks for reply and sharing with us your experience.
Have you had similar problems with one of those exe installer files in the rom kitchen at Jeff's webpage? I like the SER ver 1.2 but do not want certain programmes and it seemed logical to make my old rom. Have you used Jeff's rom kitchen yet?
Cheers
Vic

I did cook a rom in Jeff's kitchen and it works great!! I can't remember if I had to unzip and run the .bat file on that one or not. Either way it's very easy and a great service these guys are providing us - Thanks! - Jim

PPC 2003 and mkrom

Any brave soul try using mkrom in conjucntion with the 2003 ROM? I think I might give it a shot here in a bit but wanted to know if anybody had tried it yet...

I've managed to build a 2003 ROM. It's extremely tricky though. I'm working on customizing a ROM similar to the XDA Developers SER - as soon as I get some free time
I'd like to acknowledge all the help given to me by Developer Itsme in this endeavor.
Let me know any suggestions you may have for the new ROM.

sheran_g,
i didn't know u could use mkrom with 2003 rom image. can u please post how u did it? i created a special version based on SE 1.1 rom but would like to put the same programs into the new rom. any help is appreciated.
thanks
alex

What's tricky about it...?

The modified registry file you make does not get picked up at the device startup. You need to manually inject the memory address of the modified registry file into the ROM in order for it to get picked up.

my latest romtools can be found at romtools
now it calls dumprom to find and fix the filedata offsets.
I think they should now build 2003 roms.

sheran_g,
can u post the steps that u take to buid it? i'm trying right now and its not working. i'm having little problems. can u post ur default.reg and initobj.txt? any other help is apreciated.
thanks
alex

Ok. Here they are in a nutshell:
Get the latest romtools.
Make the following dirs: romfiles, cfg, tmp, out, files, files1, files2
Split the ROM into Bootloader, bootimage, OS image, xipchain into the 'cfg' dir.
Dump the files in the OS image into a 'romfiles' dir.
Get the default registry file, initobj & initdb files into your 'cfg' dir.
Make changes to your default.reg and initobj.txt
Place any files you want loaded in the ROM into the 'files' dir.
Run 'mkrom.sh'
You should then have your new ROM. I'm sorry if it's extremely brief; you'll have to make do with this and the README file in the romtools archive file for now. You'll find my default.reg and initobj.txt files on my site: www.zensay.com/qtek/mkrom

sheran_g,
Have you created a decent working custom WM2003 ROM?
If so what Apps have you added?
How much ROM space does it use?

I've not added any apps to my ROM. I have only added a carrier logo file and made some changes to the registry. So I cannot comment on ROM space yet. The ROM works fine.

sheran_g,
what command did u use to extract rom files? did u do it under windows or unix?
I'm having problems trying to dump the rom image. I don't know if its too much to ask, but can u zip ur directory and post it somewhere so i can download it? or if u can post commands that u ran to dump the 2003 rom?
thanks

Hi,
could you include "O2 home zune" to the 2003 image, like in the 2002 3.19 GER. Its for Germany interested only!
AR :?:

home zone depends on specific 3.19 rilgsm features. which are not in 4.*

okay, used dumprom -4 -d files -q nk.nbf and extracted all files. Got could not find pointer for ofs 00000000 ERROR but all the files seem to be there. Trying to figure this out. Saw the above abreviated directions but am fumbling around. Anyone have concise directions?
Val

Anyone? Just give me a good hint then please.

Hi all!
When i overwrite the rilgsm.dll file in the t-mobile 4.0.10 image with the rilgsm.dll from the O2 GER 3.19 image, i could use the "O2 home zone" option with the hz.exe in Starup directory? rilgsm.dll from german image hes 'at+creg=2' string in it. probably the RIL_GetCellTowerInfo call is now implemented. When it can work, how could i write the german rilgsm.dll to the image? I haven't linux, could somebody cook the image for me?
here is the germen rilgsm.dll and the hz.exe for the "home zone" funktion! http://www.nokiaprog.de/XDA/home_zone.zip
THX
PS: Sorry, my english! ;-)
AR

the homezone enabled rilgsm.dll depends on other dll's and exe's.
probably ril.dll, stk.exe, cell*.dll and maybe more, I have not tried
replacing all.
you don't need to build a new rom in order to experiment with this, you
can just copy the desired files to \windows, to override the rom versions.

And I don't think it works with the RIL_GetCellTowerInfo call,
but adds some notification events.
to change the CREG setting you need to call RIL_DevSpecific with parameter 25 ( to turn it on ) or 26 ( to turn it off )
even though that does not seem to be how hz.exe does it.

Hi,
I opened the image file in the Hex editor and renamed the file there rilgsm.dll. Then I flashed the image, which was phone probably deactivated, because rilgsm.dll was missing. Then I copied over ActiveSync the German rilgsm.dll into the Windows directory, XDA reset and he not accept the file. I assume because the file was not in the EPROM memory! Therefore I wanted to have rilgsm.dll first times in the image!

IS THERE A WAY TO GO BACK TO 3.14 FROM 4.00.16 ENG

i HAVE COOKED UP A ROM IN JEFFS KITCHEN AND I FOUND NOT THAT I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY SPEAKER PHONE ACTIVATING SOME THINGS I CAN DEAL WITH BUT THIS I CANT COULD SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME BRING BACK THE DAYS OF OLD

You must use T-mobile Rom Update program(TMO2003.exe) just like O2 Program A.But you must use Rom 3.14(O2 version NK.nbf) instead T-mobile 4.16 Rom on c:\Program Files\RUU\english\NK.nbf when T-mobile program run on check rom version pass.When you finish Rom Update you must Run O2 Program B(Radio stack)to update your Radio stack program.
I have already test ok. Good luck!

thanks for such a prompt response but you kinda lost me there im somewhat of a newbie so some of the jargon is a little above me is there a place were i can pick up the software i need that has all you talked about included.

Everything you need is in XDA-developers forum.You need to find it.
I have download it all,but the file too big to post for you.So you need to download by yourselft.
TMO2003.exe(T-mobile 4.0016 Rom Update Program just like O2 Program A)--include rom 4.0016 when you run TMO2003.exe on your pc, it will install all file to c:\program files\RUU\
So you can copy your own Rom to c:\program files\RUU\english to instead T-mobile Rom when Program chech the Rom version pass.
Rom's filename is NK.nbf. You can download from jeffs Kitchen.
Open the ROM.exe(from jeffs Kitchen)with RAR Don't Run IT (ROM.exe)
You can extract NK.nbf which filename is same as T-mobile version.
Next time you update rom never! ever! to update T-mobile version(4.0016)because it will difficult to back the proto-ROM.
