Here is a pnewbootloader for ROM version 4.01.16

I blew my bootloader some how and spent some time modifying the pnewbootloader source code to make it work for WM2003 ROM version 4.01.16
I took original source code by itsme and added version and address information for ROM 4.01.16
Use this in conjunction with a valid 5.15 bootloader image to downgrade your bootloader imaget to 5.15 from 6.22 or 5.22 or 5.17
type pnewbootloader_40116.exe bootloader_v5_15.nb0
to apply the bootloader.
FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK. This program uses defined ROM addresses and will only work with known ROM versions. There are some basic checks to prevent damage.

Fixbootloader don't work
I have T-Mobile ROM 4.01.16 with bootloader 5.15 probably locket by this T-Mobile ROM (I can't flash any other ROM and original pnewbootloader whrite message "Unable to find flash info offset, cannor disable bootloader writeprotect")
When I trying to start you updated pnewbootloader, my WinXP popup a message
"The application failed to inicialize properly (0xc0000135). Click OK to terminate the apllication"
What should it be?.. :?:

This application needs ActiveSync and also the "itsutils.dll" to be located in the same folder as teh EXE.
Which version of XP are you using. I built it on a XP pro SP1 box.

I have exactly the same: WinXP Pro SP1
I run in cmd "pnewbootloader_40116.exe bl515.nb0"
from the folder, which contain
pnewbootloader_40116.exe
pnewbootloader.exe
itsutils.dll
pput.exe
bl515.nb0
Activesync 3.71 i connected to my XDA.

Cant really say why you are having this problem. But one this might help.
Seems like your .net framework is either old or not working.
Go to windows update to download and install the 1.1 .net framework or visit
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...e3-f589-4842-8157-034d1e7cf3a3&DisplayLang=en

Thank you for your help! The problem was realy in .NET version.
I had 1.0 installed on my WinXP.
After updating to .NET 1.1 your program is working fine. And it seems, that it updated my bootloader. Its output was
pnewbootloader.exe bl515.nb0
in FindFlashOffset (or somthing like this)
protection found at 8c0d62c8
result: 00000000 00000000
After that my device is still bootable and boot my 4.01.16
But I still can't update my ROM to 3.17.03 through XDATools..
Can anyone help me? plzzzz!

are you using xdarit to write your image to SD card ?.
You have to use SD card flash method to upgrade/downgrade the ROM.
Download XDarit and use that to write the image (.nb1) to SD card in 1k header format.
Then reset and boot your pda after holding the power button. You will see a menu which will let you flash your PDA with the image on the SD. Search for xdarit on the forum. You will find SD card flash process also.

rchir, when you said I blew my bootloader some how , did you mean you get GSM error?
Thanks

No,
I was unable to get into the bootloader anymore. I trid to build a boot loader upload SD card and it wiped out the boot loader from my PPC.
GSM error might be due to you Radio firmware failure.

Thanks, well, if you could figure out how to solve the Radio firmware failure, please post it, I'm sure many people here would apreciate it :lol:

would this fix my broken bootloader?my unit doesn't display anything on it's screen, I think I've already erased my bootloader pls help me, I'm so desperate about this.... i tried everything which inside this thread but my activesync can't detect my unit...SOS

I also have a broken bootloader ...
I have an xdaII, and I've somehow overwritten the original bootloader v1.06 with a corrupt bootloader image. Now my xdaII is completely dead. No leds flashing, no screen, no button response. All I get is a flashing red led when i rty to charge my xdaII without the battery. It seems I can't access my bootloader anymore. Plz help !! If you know any method to access the boot loader agin it be a great help. Thanks.

sorry guys, it has been a long time since i sold my XDA, but i think pnewbootloader will only work if you are able to connect your pda to PC with activesync.
So you should have a working XDA, with a broken bootloader to get it fixed. Seems like in your case, Both the ROM and Bootloader are corrupt. I am not sure about any process which will fix both at the same time.

can u post the download again? or pls send it to me [email protected].. THANK YOU..
(the download feature does not work, here in my computer, and another another computer appears a error message)

Can MDA Vario be flashed from SD-Card?

Hello,
I have flashed my MDA Vario with a WM6 rom dutch witch worked fine. After i changed my pagepool to 6 MB and soft rebooted my MDA, it stared, but without phone functionalty. every program i try to start it gives me the message that it has no memmory to start the program.
No activesync connection (or any other connection) can be established. I have found some articles on flashing xda pda's from sd card. But in these articles they talk about .NBH files. The only file i can find in the update util is an .NBF file. Can anyone help me solving this issue?
TNX in advance

Try bootloader mode?

Can you get into bootloader mode (tricolor RGB bands)? ("Get your phone in bootloader mode by doing this: Phone powered off, press Camera button + Power On, will enter into bootloader mode (RGB screen").
Once in bootloader mode you can reflash even though activesync says not connected - just look for little USB in corner of screen.

Tnx cushcalc for your reply.
I have tryed it just a minute ago. I can enter the boot loader but the flashing fails at starting with the message "This update utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please get newer update utility". I have used the same flash tool as the rom image witch is now on the MDA.

Sounds more like CID locked after flashing the last ROM was flashed....cant u even flash any other wm6 ROM?

You should flash the original T. Mobile ROM from bootloader it should work. After you have the original running you can then re-flash WM6 using shelltool if your phone is CID locked. Try it and lets see how it goes.

You people are the greatest. I have tryed to flash my MDA Vario with the latest rom from t-mobile and now i have a fully functional mda again. BIG TNX for helping!!!

[HELP] Bricked TyTN

Hi,
I'm kind of new around here.
My problem is as follows:
- TyTN running PaysRom for about 9 months
- Started to get very sluggish
- Unable to get signal
When i booted my HTC the 'R' and 'G' that appear on screen and used to have values in front of it now display 'none'.
So, I connected it to my PC, 'activesynced' it and tryed to install a new ROM, hoping it would solve the problem.
But the new ROM wasn't installed sucessfully and now all I got is a brick.
I can't even connect it to ActiveSync since it's not recognized.
Is there any solution to my problem?
TIA,
hype

Can you get to the Bootloader?

Yes..
By pressing the Ok+Power+Reset on the bottom button, I see the 'RGB'+white thingie, that I believe is the bootloader..

What SPL do you have? Is it Hard SPL V7(2.10)?
If it is, use the sd card method to install a new ROM.
remember to backup your card 1st.
1. Format 2Gb or less sd card FAT32. Copy .nbh file of the ROM you want onto it and rename to hermimg.nbh .
2. Insert card into Hermes and reset into bootloader.
3. If all things have been done right, follow the prompts....
If the radio ROM has died, I'd suggest trying to flash the Shipped Stock ROM 1st and see if that actually fixes the problem with the blank values on R & G. WM06 upgrade of shipped carrier ROM should also work.
Cheers...

Tks for your response.
I tryed the SD Card method already, with no sucess.
The red stripe shows as follows:
Code:
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.03
Everytime I tryed on another ROM I always perfomed it using SafeSPL.
Since I don't have 2.1, what can I do?
Tks for all ur help.

What happens when you try and flash a ROM over?
Do you get any kind of error?

You need to find the SHIPPED STOCK ROM. WM06 upgrade should be OK as the CID should match.
Put Hermes into bootloader and connect to PC after unticking "Allow USB Connections" in Activesyncs settings on the PC.
Run the RUU_Wrapper.exe file of the SHIPPED STOCK ROM. ven though activesync won't etect it, the flash file should. Follow the prompts.
Good luck as this seems to be the only way to fix this.
Good Luck...

You might be able to flash a Stock WM5 ROM using the SD Card method. Worked for me when I had SPL 2.03. In fact that's the only ROM it would let me flash over when mine bricked.

Hi, i had the same problem flashing from the SD card. Are you using Vista or Windows7? I tried with Vista Format card, drag and drop renamed image onto sd card. Stuck it in the phone, reset and like you say hangs on bootloader. Then i tried the same thing from my Windows XP laptop, exactly the same format, rename drag and drop and everything works fine. Hope this helps

first i tried with vista then i tried with xp the problem still there, any other idea to solve this problem? thanks anyway for your advice

roms?
G'day, I've only really been reading about roms and these phones for only a few hours but I'm pretty sure that htc jasjam and imate jasjam are one and the same phone i think the said rom are used with all hermes type phones..
thanks and sorry for my ignorance if i'm mistaken
