OK. I have extracted the the RSU from a t-mobile xda using the xda manipulator expert mode.
Now if only we could figure out how to convert it to an RSUpgrade.cp64 format, then we should be able to use the RSUpgrade.exe utility to flash the GSM rom with the converted file.
Does anyone know how to do this??? :?
Wade
Hmm.. I have no idea but I am in need of GSM ROM. I tried the usual flash method of RSUpgrade utility without any luck and left my xda useless...
can you share your GSM ROM file?
PLease share your GSM ROM file was readed from yout XDA.
I will tell you if there is any conversion to be made and how to.
thaks,

new ROM upgrade with radio_.nbf file
codectelecom: have you cheked this file: http://xda-developers.com/incoming/rom160wwe/RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL.exe
I tried to run the program but as usual got the POWER NOT PLUGGED IN error message due to our devices problems, but was wondering if you could study more as the programs consisted of 3 nbf files: ms.nbf, NK.nbf and radio_.nbf.
I extracted the files but was not able to write any of them to the SD card :? neither xda rit nor OSImage tools would accept the files. Is it because they are meant only for xda2?
HAPPY NEW YEAR, BTW

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
I just make the special edition ROM trhought mkrom and I obtain the.nb1 file, but when I flash my xd and make the cold reset, it hangs on the welcome screen, it print the 3 lines in red in the right bottom and after that ..... Nothing....... sniff
Anyone could help me????
I used the .nbf file that comes with the program A of O2.
Thks
that means that the windows kernel, and gsm have initialized.
the system should then proceed to execute the stuff mentioned in registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init.
maybe something went wrong with default.fdf?
I use the default.fdf that comes with the mkrom.zip, I just extract it and copy the nk.nbf file and proceed, I didn´t modify anything.
thks
I try to make another ROM with diferent Default.fdf but it hangs too.
it could be the NK.nbf file???
can you tell me where is a link fot one NK.nbf valid?
I´m going crazy :shock: jeje
thanks
if you use a different source rom, you need to change your default.fdf to
the one from that rom.
thanks for your patience,
I extract the default.fdf from the NK.nbf with dumprom.exe.
and then I use the fdf2reg.pl to create the default.reg and I put this file in the cfg directory, and after that I execute mkrom (sh mkrom.sh NK.nbf)
is that correct???
thanks
I think that the nbf file that I´m using is not a correct verion.
I tried to make a nbf file form jeff´s page but it doesn´t work with the nbf selection.
Do you know where can I find a nbf file that works with mkrom???
Is here somebody who can give me original or any ROM whitch is fit in to SX56 U.S.A. AT&T ? Model PW10B1 EN . This PPC is 10 days old. That's all I know about numbers :-( :? Thanks very much ! :!:

Yorch's ROM Kitchen is not working
The kitchen is MIA, but if you click on the "upgrades" link you can find an original ROM image for AT&T. This is supplied as a .RAR compressed file. Open the .RAR file using WinRAR and extract NK.nbf that is located in the /English folder. You can use XDATools to copy NK.nbf to an SD card and install from the bootloader.

OK I fix the ROM problem and SX56 is like new, but is lock. I can't unlock it with XDAunlock. XDAunlock says : " error getting unlock code "
:-(
Now since you have the NK file of your favorit ROM, goto the kitchen again and upgrade to ROM 3.17 which will unlock your device with the first startup ... then you can reflash your device using the NK file.
Since I am still waiting for T-mobile's release of 2003, and not really jazzed about inhereting all of their bloatware, is it safe to upgrade my US Tmobile phone to this new SX56 Upgrade to Windows Mobile 2003 from Siemens? Is there any particular way it should be installed? Can I just use the executable? How do I backup my address book? Or will all of my personal info be preserved?
Can someone inlighten me?
Thanks

Need to upgrade both ROM and RS
Pardon the novice question, but if I unzip the exe file, is there a way to upgrade both the ROM and the RS using xdatools? I know about the method to load the SD card with the .nbf file if you just need the ROM, but I need both.
Any tips?

For the Radio upgrade copy the below files in your devices windows root folder and run RSUpgrade.exe from File Explorer:
monitor_ul_bs.m0
monitor_ul_bs.map
RSUpgrade.cp64
RSUpgrade.exe
Note: this is to be done after you complete the ROM upgrade.

I Syncronized the XDAUNLOCK to my AT&T SX56 but when I tried to run it I got "error getting unlock code" can you help...

Backup your existing rom to sd card, install developers rom special edition, this will unlock the phone, then flash original rom from sd using bootloader method.

i extracted the exe file to a new folder but there was not an .nbf file or at least i couldn't find one :?: :!: :?:
thanks
there is a subfolder named english. The NK lives there.
i found the nbf file i had to extract onto itself
i'm using the bootloader to do flash the new rom to my phone
i'm at the step where the device is suppose to recognize a new rom on my sd card
i copied the nbf file using xdarit
i plugged the card back into the pda
now i start the wallaby bootloader im running v5.15 it supposedly should recognize the new rom well the instructions say to copy the .nb1 file on the card but with the extraction method i could only get a .nbf is that why it's not being recognized
thanks
thanks guys my phone is free .... free as in unlocked
these are the steps i took
someone can do in 30 mn what i did in 1 day
-backed up my rom onto a sd card with wallaby bootloader v5.15
-using the xdarit i downloaded my old rom on my PC
-cooked a new rom with xdaunlock at yorch.net
-couldn't create a .nb1 or .nbf file so i took the .exe rom
-with winzip extracted the newly dowloaded rom onto itself to get the nk.nbf file to be flashed (when i extracted it on a new folder there was no nk file listed, so i went back to the kitchen cooked another rom saved the exe "et voila")
-i couldn't get the newly upgraded rom to be recognized when using the bootloader
-downloaded the xdatools to copy the nk file on sd card (i was unable to pick my sd card reader as a destination -weird stuff) so i did this
-from the english folder Abbas is talking about above i right click the nk file to copy it to SD card and xdatools was launched automatically
-plugged the sd card in the phone and started the bootloader v5.15 and instantly the rom on the sd card was recognized
-press action to download it
-cold reboot ( the battery on/off, erase all)

All tools in XDA-developers.com cannot unlock SX56 radio A.33.02 or T-mobile 6.25.02

Maybe they should downgrade their radio, then unlock and then upgrade the radio and rom again. I think that is the new tool cgigate developed!
