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
Raymond
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.

Hello, I read somewhere that there is a new TMobile radio Stack. Can anyone confirm this and point me towards it? Thx,
Donovan.
Donovan:
The latest, unless I missed something, is 6.24.00, and is available as part of the TMo 4.00.10 ROM update at
http://www.romanweb.com/yorch/official-tmo2003.rar which includes the 6.24 radio and 4.00.10. To install, REMOVE YOUR XDA FROM THE CRADLE. Unzip the file, and then cancel out. It creates a directory called RUU under Program Files. Place your xda back on the cradle and copy the two files entitled monitor_ul_bs and the two files entitled RSUpgrade from the RUU\English directory to the Windows directory on your xda. Then execute the RSUpgrade executable file on the xda. This will install the 6.24 radio. Once complete, a hard reset might be required, but normally that is not necessary.

Has anybody tried this RSU in New Zealand, If so was it sucessfull?
Thanks David. Much appreciated.
Donovan.
P.S. I'll PM you regarding that latte.
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
Hello
I have a serious problem with my XDA Qtek 1010 on the radio part.
In the bootloader i got " GSM ERROR" due to an error in flashing procedure.
I can back-up my ROM and bootloader and GSM part as well.
The problem is that I have found a lot of files to flash my ROM part bu nothing for the RADIO part.
Is there anyone so kind to help me and send a file ( or a link to download from ) from the radio part ( in SD format ) ?
Thanks,
Silviu C.
It would help if we knew what Radio stack you were running before the upgrade?
radio version before upgrade
I am not sure about initial radio version. It was an upgrade that is for sure.
please help me
Ok here you go, download the below file, use WinZip to extract the .cab from the .exe and copy it to your SD card.

Ok locate and copy the below files to your devices windows folder and run RSUpgrade.exe to restart the upgrade. (note this is an old method but it might still work).
RSUpgrade.exe
RSUpgrade.cp64
monitor_ul_bs.map
monitor_ul_bs.m0
also take a look at the below thread:

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)

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!
Is is possible to extract files from an NK.NBF file? I am interested in just pulling all the CAB files from within. If so, how?
Thanx.
Another semi-related question...
Is there any way to install a phone rom WITHOUT the extended_rom section so as to have more memory available on the phone? Seems kinda useless to have all that stuff in extended_rom that is only used on install.
Thanx again.
Okay...need only four CAB files...can ne1 help me out here?

The answer to the first question is yes. You have to: use typho5 tool (search the forum for it) to extract the extrom from the nk.nbf file; use winimage (windows xp shareware) to open the extrom .nb file.
The answer to the second question is no, you cannot join the extrom partition to the main one. It was possible with Magicians (the phones!) but no one has been able to do the same in wizards.
