Who can give me their T-Mobile number so I can dl the upgrad

hi,
Sum1 here who a T-Mobile subscriber? I have a T-Mobile PocketPC that I need to unlock tho I'm not a T-Mobile subcriber. I need a T-Mobile mobile number to get the upgrade at http://www.t-mobile.com/products/handhelds/pocketpc/download_popup.asp
Or if someone already downloded the upgrade where can I download it without keying-in the mobile number? Thanks.
BTW, I have a question, if I download the upgrade, can I now use the XDAunlock.exe file here (is my ROM automatically updated)? My ROM version now is 3.14.40 ENG. I'm having trouble with the ROM updater here since im not linux literate.
Email me at [email protected]. Thanks a lot

I already downloaded the TMobile upgrade. Can somebody tell me if this upgrade will indeed upgrade my ROM to the correct ROM version with wirelss modem feature to I can use the XDAunlock.exe to unlock my xda? Thanks

The answer is NO, the latest TMO upgrade is 4.01.00 and it has no wmodem.exe application. If you need to unlock your device, go to www.xda-developers.com/XDAunlock/ and use the tool there.
If it doesn't work, try the kitchen at www.yorch.net and cook a new 3.17 based ROM and flash your XDA and unlock it, then you can upgrade to TMO 4.01.00 later.
BTW, the TMO upgrade affects the RSU part. So, unless you are a TMO user you better use the .nbf file only with either SD card or use the XDAtools to flash your device.
Good luck.

Hi Biso,
How can I "cook" a rom? http://kitchen.romanweb.com/kitchen/index.php when I go to that website, the only thing needed to be selected are the 3.17.03 ENG O2-Euro (6656 kB available) and XDA-developers AutoConfig data (113 kB) under it. and the unlocking option right? This wil be the first to use my pocket pc device, which option should I select under How would you like your ROM?
installer EXE
zipped NK.nb1 (SD-card flashing)
zipped NK.nbf (advanced users)
and should I do anything on the NBF header string?
Thanks man.
If I use the intaller EXE file, how will I "flash" it on my device? What are the differences between using the exe,nk.nb1 and nk.nbf? Thanks again.

I notice that above the page there is an indication, by default when I go to the page (without checking or unchecking anything) the top of the page states:
space in ROM: 6656 kB
used: 7729 kB
free: -1072 kB
*overload*
Should I limit my ROM on 6656 kB (meaning that I have to uncheck other options)? My deveice is an XDA 1. Thank you.

Hi ...
Yes, you have to uncheck some optional s/w till the guage line is "Green".
If you are not familiar with the SD method, just select the EXE type. It will generate a 15 MB exe file which you should download it to your PC. Connect your XDA to your PC throught the cradle and ActiveSync and run the exe file while the cradle is connected to the power supply and follow the instructions on the screen.
Good luck.

Thanks man for the quick reply.
Sorry I'm getting confused. Should I transfer the exe file to the device and run the exe file on the device?
Thanks again

The exe file runs from your desktop, your xda will need to be synced with your pc before running the exe.

Thanks so this is what I have to do:
First sync my device (cradle connected to the power supply) and after synching, run the exe file on my desktop computer (no need to transfer on my device or anything?). That's it?
Is this fail-proof? Will it not damage my device if ever there was an interruption or sumthing? How can I make sure that I can go fail-proof? Kinda worried coz I just got hold of my xda 1 (T-Mobile edition), I'm a palm user before. Thanks
BTW, my PocketPC Version is 3.0.12039 (Build 11178). ROM version 3.14.40 ENG. I don't know if my PocketPC is 2002 or 2003. I'll be using the yorch.net ROM (http://kitchen.romanweb.com/kitchen/index.php). All compatible?

ROM 3.14 is a PPC2002 one and all ROMs on Yorch.net is WM2003 except the 3.17 one.
Just to ensure it's a safe process, remove the SIM and SD card from the device and stop any running applications on your PC.
Good luck ...

Thans Biso. How bout a step by step guide? Pls pls pls? Id really appreciate it man.
Like
1. Sync the device (Power connected to the cradle)
2. Run the Rom Exe file
3. etc.
Just to be sure. BTW, is the exe file really just 150KB? Is that all I need to unlock my device?

Hi ...
There is nothing really needed more than what you just wrote:
1. Connect the XDA to the cradle and sync while the power is connected.
2. Run the EXE file and follow the instructions on the screen.
BTW, the EXE file should be at least 15 MB, seems your ROM was not "cooked" well .... try again

Ohh ok. I downloaded twice and all I got was 150kb. how will I know that the ROM i got is "cooked" well so I can be free of troubles. Can you just give me a link to the right/"well cooked" ROM? Thanks man.
One more thing, should I run the ROM EXE file while my device is synching or after the synch?

it's still 150 kb. Here's what it says when I view the log
./mkrom.sh: ../../kitchen.local/mkrom-inc.sh: No such file or directoryno files for configid 26220739Cannot fit files in given sectionsError splitting files

seems there is something wrong with the kitchen work space ... it happens sometimes ... no big issue.
You may try this kitchen as well http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/
P.S: run the EXE file after the device is synced

which one should I pick? Pocket PC 2002 ROM or Windows Mobile 2003 ROM. And what's the difference. Sorry for my ignorance. Thanks for the replies.

Biso,
Can I use an MMC card for flashing? I MIGHT be able to borrow an MMC card. Also, I dont have a card reader but I have a digital camera which I can use to transfer the ROM image from my desktop computer to the card. Would you think it would work? Thanks again man.

will the exe file below work for me?
http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
and
http://www.xs4all.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
This is my Device's Information
ROM version: 3.14.40ENG
ROM date: 11/26/02
Radio version: 6.18
Protocol version: 324e4
Pocket PC Version 3.0.12039 (Build 11178) (Don't know if this is 2002 or 2003 pocketpc)
Pls reply. thanks

Hi ...
1. As the figure tells, WM2003 is the latest than PPC2002.
2. I can recommend to use TMO 4.01.00 as I have it on my device for almost 3 months now with no problems so far (few things have to be tweaked tho), but I heard good news about AT&T 30.09 ROM as well.
3. I can't confirm that MMC can replace SD card. I saw some threads on this but no final results.
4. The answer is NO, the only way to move the NBF file to the SD card is either a card writer or by using XDAtools with the XDA cradle. I don't think the card will be recognized by the bootloader otherwise.
5. SER-V12 is a PPC2002 ROM and useful only if you need to unlock your device (which I believe it's already unlocked).

No I just want to unlock the device, that's it I don;t really want a ROM upgrade, just so happens that I need to have a ROM upgrade to unlock the device
SO I can use the SER-V12? Thanks a lot.

NEED to CHANGE GER ROM to WWE ROM

Okay, I bought a MDA Compact from T-Mobile 2 days ago, The Problems is that the Device is German and I Speak and Read English, Could someone walk me through to change it to English, I read so many tips and none work.
ROM-Version:1.12.2.21 GER
ROM-Datum: 11/14/05
Furmempfangerversion: 01.12.20
Protokool-Version: 4.0.13.23
ExtRom-Version: 1.12.02.106

Need to read some more, like this one:
'XDA mini (MDA compact) with German ROM to English ROM'
@ http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=36002
Basically you need a WWE shipped-rom & maupgradeut_noid.
unzip the shipped-rom, put maupgradeut_noid in the same dir. as the unzipped files. Connect your magician with usb & execute maupgradeut_noid twice.
Or go for an SD-flash.
Cheers, M

Thanks
I tried that and I get a error 103: ROM IMAGE File Not Found, Thanks for that, what is the way with SD-Flash? I''l try anything....
Ulymanchild

I think you didn't extract the ROM before using the maUpgradeUT_noId file...extract the EXT file with winrar adn then in the contents use maupgrade_noid

EXT File
Okay this is what I have
MDACompact_WWE_1.12.152 and MaUpgradeUt_noID I put this all in one folder and I tried to run and still the same ROM Image Error.
I have the MaUpgradeUt_noID with the GETDEVICEDATA and the ENTERBl and still nothing, could somebody walk me through like I was a child who was born yesterday. ;-(
I don't understand the EXT File thing either when I download all these stuff from XDA website I have them in zip and I just extract them normally with XP. What am I doing wrong?

It's not that difficult:
- Unzip NL_11300_131_11200.exe (or any other shipped rom) to a folder, so you get the maupgradeut.exe etc.
- Copy the getdevicedata.exe to your Magician and execute to write DeviceData.txt
to \Windows and view with notepad
- Hexedit header to correct ID from DeviceData.txt
(probably only if using a rom from other provider)
- put maupgradeut_noid.exe in the same folder as the devicedata.txt, maupgradeut.exe etc
- run maupgradeut_noid.exe to upgrade CE image
Regards, M

I meant EXE file and not EXT file......
I think MDACompact_WWE_1.12.152 is a single EXE file with an Install shield icon.....
you have to extract it to get the ROM files
to do that download WinRAR from www.rarlabs.com...install it...
after installing winrar if you right-click on MDACompact_WWE_1.12.152.exe you have an option for etracting...extract it to a folder....now copy MaUpgradeUt_noID.ext to this folder and execute it...now you won't get the error 103
For you information ROM files have the extension .nbf....you find .nbf files inside the extracted filder
Hope you get it

Thanks
Well I want to thank all for the advice but I tried step by step and try it again and nothing ROM ERROR 120 COUNTRY I will go by a SD-Flash and try it that way if that doesn't work owell I gues I will sell it and go to england and buy me one there,,,;-(

Did you run the maupgradeut_noid twice?
The SD flash will work, just as long as you copy the first 416bytes of your own rom to the new rom.
succes, M

Ulymanchild
Hey, before selling it, read this:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianRomUpgrade
This 120 country id error is easy to solve.
After you run the first time, just press "Exit" as the install wizard tell you.
After you exit from the wizard, run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe once more. This time you will not see the error again.
Hope you get it

Almost work
okay I tried what you said and I got as far as the what it's going to upgrade to put it losses the connection, what could be wrong, you gave me the best advice so far and I thank you.

I'm clueless on this point besides the usual 'try again'?
SD will work there's a nice 1.13 on the ftp -) mine) so you can always go for that approach.
Instructions:
- download the 1.13BS rom from the ftp
- get ntrw.exe & romugrade.exe from the ftp
- Download the Hexeditor from:
http://www.hhdsoftware.com/hexeditor.html
- get a SD-card > 64MB
- make backup of everything you want to keep from your magician & SD-card. everything will be wiped!!
- fully charge your magician
- uncheck usb connection in Act.sync on your PC
- put your magician in Bootloader (camera & power & soft-reset at the same time for a few seconds) wait till screen fades & reads 'serial v1.0x'. Screen is very dark since backlight is of.
- connect usb, now the screen reads 'usb v1.0x'
- start romupgrade on your pc
- pick the magician connection in the listbox, wces something I belief
- now a screen pops up
- type d2s in this screen
- follow progress on pc & magician
- wait till checksum finishes
- get SD from the magician & put it into a cardreader. DON'T FORMAT!!!
- put ntrw in C:\
- start a command window
- type on commandline: ntrw read myrom.nb1 [sd driveletter]:
- follow progress
- error at the end is normal
- make a copy of myrom.nb1
- open myrom.nb1 & the BS rom with the hexeditor & replace the first 416 Bytes of the BS rom with the first 416 bytes of myrom.nb1 & save it to mybs.nb1
- type on commandline: ntrw write mybs.nb1 [sd driveletter]:
error at the end is normal
- put the SD in your magician
- now it should read 'press power to flash'
- press the power button
- watch it reaches 100% - checksum will always fail
- reset & hopefully enjoy the new rom
Cheers, M

Back Error
I tried to back up my rom with romupdate.exe and when I try to pick USB it does not work only thing that showes is com2 com4 I also unchecked USB Connection on ActiveSynce and it still doesn't work so what the hell, okay I will pay some one to help me I will call the person and have them walk me thru!!!!
HELP

Seems like there's something fishy with your USB connection or your device. Best thing is to find someone nearby who has done it before & use his/her equipment .
Guess you're not getting it to work by talking through.
Terribly sorry, M

Could it Be
I just found out that my device is a HTC Charmer the new one that came out in December and it does not work like magician...So I have to try something else

You lucky bastard,
There is progress in that field. So keep looking.
Cheers, M

Can I try the first procedure OLTP described in the begining
I have a Qtek S110 with a French ROM and I need the English version.
I have downloaded MagicianRadio_1.13.00_maupgrade and Qtek_WWE_1.13 from the ftp site. Are there any special precautions I have to be aware of?
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards,
Sidi

Make a backup of your existing rom, in case you might want to fall-back for warranty issues etc. & a separate copy of the ext-rom cabs in case of provider settings etc.
& make a back-up of all pim data as everything will be lost & programs need to be reinstalled. Don't forget to mark your provider settings for gprs access, they're usually located in one of the ext-rom cab-files. You can write them down too.
For the rest it is fairly simple, connect usb & execute the maupgradeut_noid twice.
regards, M

First of all you need to make sure that you have the latest version of Active Sync.
then follow one of the Wiki Guides
I am using this Rom and have had no problems
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403421
Also what Radio version Etc do you have

my problem is i cant upagrde other because the active sync close automaticily and then in the upgrade window say connection error 101
what is radio version ?
waht i can se in my smartphone is only CE 5.2.19209 (build 19209.1.0.2)
radio version 1.13.00

Uninstall and re-install active sync (V4.5)
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/activesync45.mspx
Also make sure that yo have set it to connect.
I had to hard reset
Hold power and push pointer into bottom of device
This site should also have some pointers
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-synch.mspx
Let me know how you get on..

Just thought,
have you added a EXT ROM package ie - one with office and some other programmes
I added one from another user (not ROM Cooker) and had similar problems.

dont work
why active synce lose automaticly?

I am not quite sure
do you have a card reader as there is a ROM on here that can be done with an SD card

i got a crad reader but
do any rom exist
and if i connect it normaly with not wana upgrade activ sync dont close automaticly
and i can transfer data but only if i wana upgrade them then active synce close automaticly

I have double checked and I am wrong, you canot upgrade ROM via SD Card.
Try switching your USB socket and updating drivers.
I wil look and see if there are any other solutions

I lie there is a way
1. Woking blue angel (with WM2003)
2. You need mtty
3. SD Card at least 64MB
Open mtty, put sd card in
Type:
Code:
USB>d2s 70020000 1060000 sd
MTTY is some kind of terminal emulation software, and in this case it is used to communicate to serial and/or USB enabled devices. On the HTC devices (including the Universal) it enables you to issue a selection of commands that allow you to read the status of som eof the components, to clear the bootloader flags, to format the internal flashdisk etc etc

mhh what i need to do?
i put mtty in sd card and sd card in mda III or in notebook?

oh man its so easy press recor button close button and reset button
now bootloadermode^^
and now i can upgrade^^

but thx for your help

Thank you.

i suggest u take a look on forums on how to installate a custom rom, but since its friday and i am always ready to go home from work i thought, lets be helpfull lol
step one: by the looks on what u write u dont have activesync installed on the laptop: go download Activesync from Microsoft website
step two: read the following topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403 and in that way u can unlock your phone for custom rom flashing
step three: download and install a custom rom of your choice. U could try to start with one of the roms of Shady313. They are downloadable @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=546805
be very carefull what u do, try to read several topics first like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308242
look around on the artemis forums and read the topics which concern flashing rom subjects.. u might learn a bit before you start flashing [or wrecking ] your phone

Hello, you original wm5? I have problems with the P3300, is cid locked, if you please upload somewhere wm5.and do not make the mistake of another rom on the phone without unlock CID first.

Yes, the original wm5.

How to update your HTC Artemis
Those having questions on flashing (i.e. updating) their HTC Artemis could try following these steps 1) Backup e.g. PIM Backup 2) disable standby and hibernation then remove SIM & SDHC cards 3) if necessary then cid unlock 4) recommend hard reset or update to the latest official build 5) if necessary Update SPL to latest 1.11.cmon 6) flash new rom then hard reset 7) put in SIM & SDHC cards and enjoy the result of the hard work by the developer
