hello forum,
i really hope there is someone out there that knows enough to help me.i have already posted here on the forum a few days ago since my phone on a o2 xda is not working anymore after a recent upgrade.There are also several bugs and problem and the device crashes in some occasions (i.e when i tap the volume button).
i decided to try to downgrade to a previous official version directly downloaded from the o2 web site.I t is the version 3.17.
LOOK WHAT HAPPEN WHEN I TRY TO INSTALL IT.
It cames up this error 012: check error:

It looks like you installed a 4.00.10 or 4.00.16 ROM from the kitchen. You will need to use the bootloader method before you're able to get back to something else.
Cook a 3.17.03 ROM in the ROMkitchen, and get it as a zipped .nb1 file. Also get the XDAtools and run that exe file. Insert an SD-card (whose contents you do not care about) in the XDA and stick it in the cradle. Then right-click on the .nb1 file from the zip, select to write it to SD-card. Wait for that to finish (the indication of that isn't all too clear yet). Then restart the XDA in bootloader mode by holding the power button while performing a soft-reset (big hole on the bottom). Then hit the center of the rocker keypad when it asks you to press 'Action', wait for the counter to finish, and you're all set.
You're life will be slightly easier if, next time you upgrade, you stay away from T-Mobile ROMs.
Hi, I am very new to this hardware , I surfed this forum for two days tried to upgrade using Special Edition 1.2 ROM but when I run the program, it gives me following error and nothing happen.
ERROR: GetConnectionType - An existing connection was forcibly close remote host

ROM date : 02/04/04
Radio Version : 6.25.02

You have to flash your device via SD-Card and Bootloader.

Hello, but I thought some of the users in this forum did unlock without using SD card, may be I am wrong.
One more request what type of SD card XDA takes, either plain SD card or SD/MMC card.
Help appriciated.

I need help to resolve this. There is NO file the Windows Directory resembling this.
2. Also I need an advice is the above ROM is too old a ROM. Also any benefits I will get if I upgrade.
Thanks in Advance

My friend bought long time ago; on ebay. Appears sim-locked.
Now i'm trying to help him in unlocking, i have read lot of treads, and tryed several programs, but still no luck.
Can you guys please help me and advise how to ulock the phone.
Configuration is:
T-Mobile pw10b1
MS Pocket PC v.3.0.12039 (buid 11178)
ROM 3.08.10 ENG (07/11/02)
Radio 6.02
Protocol 324e4
Bootloader 5.15
Network adapters:
AsyncMac1 NDISWAN Adapter
NE2000 Compatible Ethernet driver
PPTP1 NDISWAN Adapter
What I did:
using this page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_Unlock2
-Installed ActiveSync from MS site;
-Backup the ROM to SD and to PC using XDATools;
-Tryed to flash bootloader with 'pnewbootloader bootloader_v5_15.nb0' but it returns an error 'Unable to find flash info offset, cannot disable bootloader writeprotect'
?? May be it's because i'm already on 5.15 bootloader?
-then i tried to Install the 'XDA-Developers Special Edition ROM 1.2' but error said that BIOS is for pw10A1, not mine.
?? where can i get Special ROM for pw10b1?
-then i'm tried to go to http://www.romkitchen.de/, but didn't use the ROM because not sure if works (phone is not mine). Which ROM to use, will WM2003 SE work on mine phone? Will it remove SIMlock?
- i'm reading about the XDAunlock program, on web said: Please note that XDAunlock will only work on device with a PPC2002 ROM that has the Wireless Modem feature. Do I have PPC2002? Do I have Wireless Modem?
Thank you in advance for help!
ps is it possible to get unlock-code some where? Upgrading ROM can be too risky (phone is not mine...)
First of all, since you have already backuped the ROM of the devie would you be able to send me the File?
Cocnerning XDA Special ROM. Normally faslhing that should work either for PW10A and for PW10B devices. There is a tool called adaptrom (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=adaptROM) that can be used for flashing.
But I´m not quite sure if this ROM will work for unlocking the device. The Radio Stack of the device is also quite old. But you can give it a try. Securest way for flashing is via SD-Card.
Done this hundred of times already.....

Hi folks!
I have a O2 Xda Orbit (in the wiki, the cruiser version).
Whenever I run the update tool to update whatever (splash screen gsm radio version, rom) it spits out this error:
The Image file is corrupted. Please check your Update Utility
What is wrong?
Device details:
ROM Version: 3.4.206.2 WWE
ROM Date: 4/18/2007
Radio Version: 02.67.90
Protocol Version: 4.1.13.28

Thanks in advance
Are you in Windows Vista? (Try Windows XP)
Do you have an SDHC card? (Take it off)
And don't forget to run USPL before you flash anything.
Also you can search for a newer version of the update utility (although I don't know if that will work).
thanks for replying
Hi!
First, thanks for replying.
USPL is the one that makes my screen show a tux pinguin, right? (how cool... can we run linux on that? )
if I run uspl firts it freezes showing a penguin and its not connected to computer via activesync, therefore not able to connect with rom updater
I will try to remove sdhc card
