copied the files ( monitor_ul_bs.m0, monitor_ul_bs.map, RSUpgrade.cp64, RSUpgrade) to windows dir, executed the rsu upgrade...uprgade started....2%....10%....16%...16%....16%....so i reset it, an thats where Im @
(i had the I had it cradled, connected to usb & power during it all)
Yeah, that's exactly what I did. I noticed you did a hard reset, which is also what I did. That may have been the death blow.
First of all, do not do ANYTHING in the Wallaby bootloader. If you start messing around in there, you're done.
Plug your phone into the power cord (even though the battery won't charge now, the phone will stay powered if you keep it plugged in).
Try to get the RSU files for the version you initially upgraded from (6.18 for the default T-mobile, or maybe 4.21 like I had from a 4.00.05 ROM upgrade package). Load those files into the Windows directory and then try running them.
Just FYI, I did a hard reboot and changed ROMs several times. I also messed with all kinds of GSM settings in the bootloader. In the end, my phone was toast. Unrecoverable. Fortunately, I got mine from T-mobile and they did an exchange. With my new phone, I'm just gonna wait for the official RSU before I try changing it
ok...too late about the Wallaby thing, that was the 1st thing i was messin with, wen i first loadit it it said "wait" 4 a looooong time, then finally said "gsm error"....but i started playin with it, an tried every option on there, but nothing happened @ all.
2nd: i cant load any thing into windows, because the xda never boots up, just sits @ the 1st screen
so i figured im gona have to get a usb r/w and a SD card :shock:
should i use XDArit.exe or XDAtools.exe
im i gona have problems, i think i have Wallaby 5.17 :idea:

Ok you're still in good shape just try re-copying the files over and run RSUpgrade again, but what ever you do don't install the 4.21 Radio stack upgrade!
BTW I never upgrade my radio stack while my device is connected to my PC, I always disconnect and use the AC adapter.

At this point I suggest that if you have an PC card SD card reader reload
the OS and start over with the radio stack upgrade using the same upgrade method but this time upgrade to the AT&T radio stack because
its less likely to fail than the T-Mobile stack.
Also after the OS reload you would have to copy the needed radio stack files from your PC to your SD card then move them to your devices Windows folder.
BTW what radio stack were you upgrading from?

IM NOT SURE BUT I THINK IT WAS 6.18
WILL THE ATT STACK WORK WELL ON MY T-MOBILE SERIVICE?
AND IM CONFUSED ABOUT HAVIN 2 HAVE TO COPY FILES TO THE SD THEN TO THE XDA...1ST, BECAUSE I NEVER USED AN SD W/R OR ANY OF THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO USE IT, AND IF I RELOAD THE OS, CANT I JUST BOOT UP AND COPY THE STACK FILES THRU ACTIVE SYNC? OR WILL THE DEVICE STILL NOT BOOT UP ??

Yes the AT&T radio stack will work on your T-Mobile and its the one I use and recommend.
As far as reloading your OS from the SD card its what we call the SD card boot loader method and is by far the best way to upgrade your OS. Do a search on this forum for more info.
Yes your device will boot but since your radio is blown Activesync most likely wouldn't connect.
HTH
ok, thanks again...i guess im off to buy the reader/writer, and the card, from walmart, or radio shack whichever is cheaper...( DO I NEED A 64MB CARD, OR CAN I GET A 32MB?)
I'll repost after halloween, since i gota go to sum partys an release all my xda induced stress with good old friend beer
btw, lol, my girlfrien seen my xda while i was tryin to repeadidly boot it up, & as it was froozen on the boot screen, i have "rom is cooking" bootimage, an she was all " i guess u did fry ur phone" :shock: :twisted:
....so with XDAtools OSImagetool, will i be able to copy the r stack?
is the target x:\windows\
that easy?...god i hope :?
Yes you'll need at least a 64MB SD card.
BTW Fry's had one on sale earlier this week for $22.00.

re radio stack upgrade
I've been following this thread re radio stack upgrade to TMO. I have RS6.18.00 currently and see 6.24.00 at yorch.net's web site under upgrades. Questions:
1. Do you copy the 4 upgrade files to the /windows folder on the PDA to run the upgrade?
2. My phone is working fine with ROM4.00.21 and RS6.18.00, should I upgrade my radio stack to 6.24 or wait another month or two for TMO's offical build?
Kind of nervous given the threads I've read. btw, I bought a SD card reader/writer & flashed ROM via bootloader/XDATools method. Worked well.

I suggest upgrading to the AT&T Radio Stack first it has a higher upgrade success rate IMHO or just wait on the official T-Mobile lease.
As fas as how do you copy the files over, you can use Activesync Explorer or use your PC's SD card reader to copy them to your SD card then copy them from there.

back & hungover...
so i got me a sd reader & the card.....copyed 4.00.16 to it (b4 had 4.00.05 i think) loaded it via wallaby, everything looked fine (except my battery was practically dead, i had to race to get it off the charger reset and put it back on the charger) so the os was copyed fine, and wallaby told me to cold reset (that did mean a "hard", no?)...so i hard reset it, then after a few mins i stuck the pin bak in the lil ass hole, and nothing happened :evil: so i put it bak on the charger, an the boot screen appeared, with a new image and on bottom of screen it sed 4.00.16 ..........but then it just sat there, like b4 and wut i noticed, that i didnt mention b4, is wen its booting up, 1st shows the "4.00.16" then sits there for like 2 minutes, then pops up a "G" & "R" above the "4.00.16" respctivly.....
and i left the device on charger 4 a while, and tried to hard reset again and still wont boot after 2nd pin push :?: :?: :?:
and another thing i didnt mention b4, wen loadin wallaby, it sez gsm error, or did i mention that
i had an idea, maybe to install an older os 3.xx.xx??? but it seams the problem is the gsm wont load, or isnt ther, or damaged, i dont know, how can i load a working GSM on it :shock:

Why does it fail? How are you trying to upgrade?
Normally you can update to all versions....
Stefan
it says that it's for ver 3.17 and I have 3.14
so it won't let me upgrade
using exe
when tried using sd image and didn't work (don't recognize my sd)
the question is if there's an exe upgrade for 3.14 ?

How do you try it?
You mus copy the ROM-file via XDA-Tools to your SD-Card.
After inserting the card in your device a windows popup will format your card. Donßt agree to this.
Enter bootloader by pressing the powerbutton and perform a softreset.
Bootloader will automaticly detect, that there is a ROM-Image on the Card.
You have to press the Actionbutton to do it.
It should work....
A few days ago there was a link to a step-by-step description how to upgrade.
Search for it...
HTH
Stefan
d/l new OSImageTool it asks for source nb1 (and doesn't find anywhere ..)
and destination (Can't set to my flash card)
So I don't really know how to transfer the image
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
Error getting connectiontype.
I used different computes another laptop but same problem, please HELP.
I am using Activesync 3.7 as 3.5 does not get connected.
Here is my phone detail
Hardware PW10B1

ROM date : 02/04/04

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 know that u will told me that this error message is solved 1000 times
look
i'm qtek 1010
i installed a cooked rom wm2003 version : 4.02.04 ENG
i'm a windows mobile c#.net 2005 developer
.net 2005 need installing framework v2
every time i try to install it it return errors informing that the frame work i'm trying to install isn't designed for that windows version but i'm fully sure that that's the correct framework version so i discoverd that that's because the cooked version so i decided to setup a non-cooked and correct version from wiki
i went to wiki and downloaded all wm2003 versions they all say the same error "an existing connection was forcible closed by the remote host" so i searched and i discovered that it requires to downgrade and then upgrade so i downloaded ppc2002 3.16.13_ENG and when i tried to install it it gave the same error i searched and found that it need to be downgraded from sdcard and i don't have an sdcard
so anybody help me
I think the problem is, that the ROM prohibits falshing via EXE.
Try downgrading via SD-Card (Instructions can be found in Wiki.....

SD cards and card readers are very cheap, especially for the small ones. Even if it was just for modifying my device I would still consider buying them.

Can you guys please help me and advise how to ulock the phone.
Configuration is:

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.....
