Lumpi - or anyone: 2 Quick Questions - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

All/Lumpi/Anyone:
First, thanks for a great site. I've managed to really appreciate the efforts that go into the work here and on the Wiki, and it's great.
My model: Wallaby TMobile US Original XDA
Current Info:
ROM: 4.01.16 ENG (Thanks to Lumpi's tasty kitchen)
ROM DATE: 02/04/04
Radio Version: 6.18.00
Protocol Version: 324e4
Desire/Objective:
I'd like to upgrade not only to the Windows Mobile 2003 SE, but I'd also like to update the RS to 6.25 (I'm in the US).
Problems:
(1) When I attempt to download the Rom (in EXE format, per Lumpi's kitchen), I cannot execute it as the errors start in the console window (ERROR: GetDeviceData), screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and second screenshot (window #2) :
Previously, without issue, I updated my ROM using the SD CARD Method and another ROM on Lumpi's site -- in fact the ROM listed above, without any major problem. And I realize that Lumpi mentions that this ROM is special, and cannot be used through the SDCARD Load or OSImageTool because this is a differently formatted ROM (being a Windows Mobile 2003 SE edition). Then, what specifically is the procedure to get this working? Do I need AdaptAROM? I'm sorry to ask, but I've searched and could not find the link.
(2) Second, I've tried (from the FTP site) to download RSU_040204_6_25 (thinking, logically, that this is the right RSU for my unit config (Date of 4.012.00 ENG). But how exactly am I to update the radio stack and *should* I update it? Has anyone else used this stack?
Many thanks, in advance.
Lumpi -- if you need space to host another kitchen, let me know.

The 4.01.16 prohibits flashing via EXE file. So you can not upgrade diretly to WM2003SE.
Download anonther ROM eg. 3.17.03 or the XDA Developers ROM 1.2 flash your Device via SD Card and then you can Upgrade via EXE-File to WM2003SE
Concerning the RSU Upgrade, there are different files on the FTP. Some are for running on your PC with connected Wallaby via ActiveSync and there ore some files (Should have _PPC in the filename) that have to run directly on the Wallaby. Extract the downloaded ZIP-File and copy all files to the /Windows directory of your device and run the RSUpgrade.exe
If you don´t have any problems with your telephone i would suggest to stay at your current Radio Stack... Upgrading this is a rixk everytime....
Some made good experiences with removing SIMcard before flashing, some other made good experiences with sim inside...
Stefan
PS: Thx for the offer, but i think i´ve got enough. Currently I´ve got 2 working kitchens up....

solution to 1% flash failed problem (RSU_3.23.01.exe)

i have the same 1% flash failed problem. here's what i did.
1. prepare an SD card with the RUU_3.16.52 extracted using XDArit.exe (use XDArit.exe to transfer the ROM in c:\program files\RUU\english\NK.nbf to the SD) you need to have a USB SD Card Reader in order to do this. buy one if you have to.
2. prepare a second SD card with the repair files stored in the root directory (RSUpgrade.sa.CAB 4,305,434bytes, and the 2577 folder) just like whoever suggested, but replace the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB on the root of SD with the one you extracted in c:\program files\Radio Stack Upgrade Utility\RSUpgrade.sa.CAB (4,328,441bytes) by running RSU_3.23.01.exe (which had unfortunately caused the failure.)
2. insert the SD card with the RUU_3.16.52. press the power button while performing a soft reset. you should enter the wallaby loader screen. i have version 5.15. press action to flash the ROM to your xda.
3. cold boot your xda. you should see the blud Qtek screen. in the lower-right-hand corner you should see
G
R
3.16.52
4. you may be asked to calibrate your screen by tipping the four corners.
5. press the volume button. insert the second SD card (containg the repair files and the 4,328,441bytes SUpgrade.sa.CAB (NOT the 4,305,434bytes one, because it will cause freezing at 1%!) wait patiently until the upgrade finishes. you may put the xda back to the cradle for power as long as it doesn't reset itself.
if anything goes wrong, start from step 2 again.
NOTE: i may have skipped some steps in the above. but that's the best i could remember. good luck.
if you haven't upgraded the Qtek ROM and the Radio Stack, learn the risk before attempting!!!

XDArit - read error from SD card?

Hi !
i tried to read my saved 3.14-ger rom from my SD card (saved as boot+ce)... but XDArit (new version) says: Did not find correct flash signature, aborting!
Why ? what did i do wrong?
Jabba
what does it display in the first page ?
does it start with 'HTC$WALLABY' ( if so what number follows? )
or does it say 'FLASH KEY'
or does it say 'FAT16'
nothing was displayed.
was very weird... i installed some win2k-drivers on my winxp for the sd-card, now it works !
my one see FAT16 it not 'HTC$WALLABY' WHAT I MAKE WRONG >?
WHAT ARE U MORE INSTALL ON TO XP ? PLEASE TELL ME I NEED TO FIX THIS PROBLME TOO
if you see 'fat16' that means your sd card is still formatted for normal use.
after xdarit or your bootloader have written data to your sd card,
you will see 'HTC$WALLABY' in the first bytes.
the 'FLASH KEY' is what you would see with bootloader 5.17, I am not sure
if xdarit supports this correctly.
I didn't need to install anything on XP, I just plugged a usb cardreader
in my pc, you see some popups about windows finding new hardware, and drivers. and after about 1 minute it worked.
the new ver 1.2 of XDArit.exe
when i use it Write a image to sd card,it 's return a error

Same Here
I get the same message in XDArit.,
Also. recently installed the latest program A update 3.17 from O2 to my UK XDA all went well, then (before I discovered this website!!) I foolishly (it now seems) went to the Program B uprade. this hubg up in mid flash!!
Now my poor XDA is in a sorry condition does wird and wonderful things, random backlight on off, responds to ocasional button pushes.
where can I get the GSM ROM to flash into it?
I also receive XDARite error with version 1.0.2.....
I have tried three different card readers and all of them give me this error....

I goofed: Now my 4350 is no more

I know that this has been partly addressed in other threads, but I failed to find an answer so this is a desperate plea for assistance.
My 4350 is an unbranded and not locked device. This may (or may not) be of significance. It has a Swedish keyboard, and I *guess* that the rom also was swedish (no way to find out right now I guess). Current version numbers are
IPL 1.08.0001
SPL 1.08.0001
GSM 02.71.90
this is all that is shown after my failed attempt to flash the device with a WM6 image. Maybe I did not pay attention, maybe the flash failed for another reason.
Anyway, I downloaded the PDAVIET ROM WM6.0 v4.12.07.05, discussed here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=318962
During the flashing, I got a single error saying
ERROR: ITWriteDisk - The drive cannot find the sector requested.
Edit: I guess this was caused by me forgetting to disable power save in the device. At least this was hinted by someone else in another thread. Am I correct?
After the failed boot, I tried to write another rom image using the RUU program. The RUU failed to identify the current image version, and when I proceeded to write the new rom 5.4.405.1, the progress bar on the handheld goes to 2%, and then reboots. The RUU then says "ERROR 294: INVALID VENDER ID"

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So what can I do now? Except call to HTC support and see if they can help me to revive the device ...
More important, what did I do wrong?
If you get the message that says INVALID VENDER ID then it means that you are using the wrong RUU. For example I have a WWE device and if I used a Russion RUU I would get a invalid vender id error or vice versa.
The only solution for you at this moment is to find a swedish RUU. If there isn't a swidish RUU then you will have to wait untill the WM6 RUU is released.
ok, I understand that by now. But what if I can find a person that owns a Herald with a V5 Swedish rom. Is there a way to "suck" the rom out and then re-install it on my device?
I think that I have read that you can dump the rom to the SD card, but I can not find the posting. Anyone?
Anders
I have heard of this before but I don't know how to do it sorry.
You can make A ROM Dump (check the WIKI for more info) but you will not be able to flash this dump on your Herald.

Ah that is true because the only method that we herald/wing/terra users have at this moment AFAIK is using asergs methods which would require you to be in a working OS. Correct?

Totally correct! we need OR the official HTC WM6 update, RUU in your own language (for a working OS), OR a modified bootloader that allows unsigned code..

Help and advice with CID and Artemis Touch 3.01

Ok so I have a O2 orbit with windows mobile 6 offical from their website. But then I seen this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=342298
Thought it looked intresting and wanted to flash my device. Not knowing which version meschle use i thought it was best to unlock my CID first. I used step one in his package and after waitng for over half an hour the command application didnt get past Initalizing.
I then went to here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
And downloaded it directly and tried again, but still exactly the same result.
So now iv downgraded my phone to the original windows mobile 5 ROM that I found again on this site and tried the CID unlocking again but still nothing.
My question is what should I do about this situation ?
Is the meschles ROM based on the O2 original package and will I be ok not CID unlocking ?
Any suggestions on another way I can CID unlock?
Thankd for your time,
Is it Vsita system?

No windows XP pro, service pack 2. With all the updates up to today and im logged in as administrator.
Sorry for not adding this and thanks for your reply.
have you deleted any sync'd devices and then plugged your phone in, then when active sync finds the device just press cancel so that it adds the device as guest. this worked for me!
No I didnt do that but I seemed to have got it to work.
I used a different machine which had just been formatted with windows XP service pack 2 and because this software is old, I downloaded activsync 4.2 onto that machine and it worked first go.
Another problem im having which is on both machines now. When I run the RUU, it gets the image version of my phone, but it says upgrade to image version 1.000000 see below.

It happened on version 3.0 and 3.01 from multiple download sources. If you continue it gets to 3% and stops saying file is currupt.
Any help ?
Thanks for everyone who offered help.
Put cert_SPCS and EnableRapi on storage card>zip, then install them.
Then try to flash another time.
Missing...
1. Transfer Cert_SPCS.cab and EnableRapi.cab to your phone
2. Run Cert_SPCS.cab FIRST and EnableRapi.cab SECOND
if there's a popup asking you to allow installation select YES
3. SoftReset your device
Ok finally i got it to work.
I used the other machine that managed to run the application properly. After that process had finished, i started step 2 straight away een though the screen of my phone was white. this worked with no problems. Last time I was restarting the phone to get rid of the white screen.
Never used the above method by coccobabbo, but could you explain it to me ? What are those applications ?
Will use that next time a new ROM comes out.
Thanks again everyone.
Anthony: That's basically the same as flashing USPL from the PC, but without a PC. You can also call it "Vista solution"

iPaq 614c update problems

Hi, I own a dutch HP iPaq 614c Business Navigator and I tried to update my device with the HP SP40079 Rom update file.
I used the cracked .dll to bypass the language check and the update succeeded.
(I did disable antivirus and firewall because it gave me problems with the wan radio update)
When I booted up my device again, the boot screen tells the firmware has been updated(0.88), but the OS remains the same as before the update(1.00.04).
If I start the update utility again, it shows the Wan Radio driver has been updated, but the Bootloader and the iPaq file storage haven't.

Anyone who knows a solution for this?
P.S. I use Windows 7 RTM x64
Problem in your OS. Try Windows XP
Thanks, that worked
Now i'm on OS 1.01.04 and FW 0.88(I'll update to 0.89 later)
hi, i'm noob here so i need your help..
I just got iPaq 614c, the language is in stupid sweden...
problem is that i can't change language to english...
I tried to update my mobile with micro SD card and flash.dio, but i got error: "update Error! Pls Check!"
os- 1.00.05
fw- 0.81
please help and sorry for my english
nobody
when you say "update" what are you updating? the FW? ROM?
If your trying to update the ROM, first run the official HP updates to update the the FW to 1.04 and 0.89 (using activsync)
then try the ROM files via sd card.
