Hi All!
To simplify the update to the latest Dopod ROM for non-Dopod devices, I have posted the ROM as the unpackaged fileset with update utility replaced to one not checking vendor ID.
How to use:
1. Download the ZIP here
2. Extract all the files in one folder
3. Go to the folder and run ROMUpdateUtility.exe
4. Follow the screens as usual
5. Restart and enjoy
Used to update my Qtek S200 to Dopod ROM. Should work for any other vendor, including Dopod itself as well
Disclaimer: It is just repackaged files got from this site with no addition from me. Use it at your own risk. I have no ability to support you.
Update: URL fixed...
Please, be advised!
While updating the ROM, will be several stops, I had ones at 80%, 95% and 100%, may be other points exists. During the stops, progress bar on the PDA becomes red, the both progress bars on the PDA and the PC does not moves. No dialog or warning appears.
Be patient and don't touch anything! It is not a problem! The full update may take up to TEN minutes! Once again, be patient! Just wait!
is this ROM chinise?
Re: Cross-vendor simple update to the latest ROM posted on F
File name is RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.zip
so I asssume that it is the World Wide English version.
The ROM is World Wide English. The interface is English, but works well with cyrilic data and has a lot of locales inside. Possible, you will need some extra software for non-latin screen keyboard.
J. - I'm glad you mentioned the "stops" during the update process - otherwise I would have been worried. Anyway it works. Thanks for posting the file.
The localisation for phone operators all are foreign to me (I guess Chinese?), but otherwise it works fine on my JAMin with my Orange UK localisation settings added.
all thansk you now download for test again can back

Incredible! What the device and the ROM version you trying to update?
I have tested it just for my Qtek S200, sorry, I have no a basket, full of different branded Prophets
First of all, ensure that you are downloaded ZIP archive, NOT exe file. Exe file is just original Dopod's update which works only for Dopod devices.
However, it is possible, that not all Vendor ID checks cleared from the utility. I don't know who is made the patched utility, but great respect to him once again!
So as I understand, no CID unlocking etc. here? If I manage to install a Dopod ROM on my German XDA Neo, I will be able to flash with a German ROM later without those bloody O2 tech support guys to notice anything?
O2 rom
Hi, is there any chance you could share your german prophet rom? Thank you!
Aleks
So does this tool mess up some system things or just bypasses the checks in a clean way?
I have a problem with a s200 flashed with the file in this tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44022&highlight=customruu
Now the device wont startup, only blinking. How can i bring it back to life??
Regards
WOW!
In-f*ckin-credible! I just flashed my German XDA Neo with this tool and it worked out flawlessly!
Oh, finally Engligh language on my PDA. God bless the guy that made this!
Cheers :wink:
Upgraded using this technique and it worked.
However I lost my Voice Dialer and MMS.
Any idea how to get these back please?
Sorry
By doing as procedure by Walker, when I execute the file ROMupdateutility.exe I get error window: RAPI.dll not found.
Could you help, pelase ? Thanks a lot.
XDA Neo -> Qtek S200
ERROR [326] Invalid Command
This nbf cannot be used...
or
ERROR [296] Upgrade Only
This nbf cannot be used...
Yes! It worked!
Everyhing went so smoothly and finished in about 5 minutes (though I am not sure about that :shock: )
I finally have my German O2 XDA Neo in English.
:lol: Thanks guys, thanks a lot!

Hi,
> Newbie: first post <
First, I want to apologize if that kind of topic had been already posted (sure it has been posted!)
I've bought an I-mate JAM in Dubai and upgraded it with the 1.06 WWE Rom proposed on the Club I-Mate site in March. I decided to change that rom in purpose to have my Jam totaly in french but I don't know how exactly because there's a lot of different roms.
Furthermore, I've tried several times to flash my "precious" with the first Fr rom proposed here but after having done the reset (after doing "d2s 80000000 04000000 in romupdate.exe"), ActiveSync do not recognize the device and I can't continue (must be guest partnership, right?).
Should I downgrade that 1.06WWE rom to an older WWE Rom first?
If not, what is the precise procedure?
Already asked? Just give me the link.
Thank you very much.
PS: 'search' function already done.
No Idea? Still waiting for an advice.
here try this file to upgrade... just place this file inside the extracted ROM of your choice and run it ...... you will get a country ID error... don't mind the error just click ok and run the file again (notice that your device will be in the bootloader mode and you should keep it that way).....
and you will find the ROM you want in the ftp...
hope that helps.....
Thanks Papa Docta,
I had this file but deleted it like a noob...thank you!
So I can download the last Qtek FR rom instead of my actual I-Mate WWE rom, fix the country id with the file, and upgrade...
Seems to be easy...TOO easy? :?
yep... download the ROM u like, doesn't have to be the imate wwe and enjoy......
I just bought a new MDA Compact II and it has WM 5.0 loaded. I noticed another post that said they didn't knw that the device supported WM5, but it does (maybe only the II version does). Anyway, I am a native English speaker and I would like to convert my device to English (right now it is in German, came that way from T-D1). Does anyone know if anyone has done this sucessfully on this version of the MDA yet? If so where can I get the SW and tutorial?
Thanks!
Randy
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Charmer/ROM English.zip
heres the rom, you'll also need to run Wizard_RomUpgradeUtility_noID first so your able to install other langauges. A search for that on here should bring up the file
Thanks Dave, just to verify....that is the English MW5.0 for the MDA Compact II, right?
Thanks for your assistance!

It is a standart ROM for MDA Compact II? Can I star the process without risks?!
i didnt upload it but its under the charmer folder so i'd imagine its the right one. The original file is called
RUU_Charmer_1120223_11202110_11220_T-MobileUK_Ship.exe
is that whats in the zip file?
here is what was in the zip file
EnterBootloader.exe
nk.nbf
Readme.doc
ROMUpdateUtility.exe
ROMUpdateUtility_wizard_noID.exe
RUUGetInfo.exe
RUUResourcee.dll.
How can I tell if it is WM5.0?
Thanks again!
Randy
certainly looks like a rom package. the nk.nbf file - properties of mine are

Thanks to someone that uploaded the file. It's here:

Actually it was there ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/pdamobiz.com_downgrade_and_unlockcid.rar :wink:
Not sure what happenned to the Prophet folder on the ftp, I though there were more files inside yesterday :roll:
Thanks a lot anyway
Im probably missing something here, but isnt it enough just using Machinagod great No ID crack when upgrading a ROM?
Just copy it to the nbf files and run it, works like a charm.
So, what is the difference with this application?
I don't know the app you're talking about, but we're talking here about downgrading, not upgrading a rom...
Moreover, does your application remove CID on prophet with SPL 2.xx ?
well, should have tested that before speaking...
doesn't work for me, once run the downgrading program, I soft reset but the device stay blocked on splah and I can't connect back to active sync to run the unlock program... too bad, that seemed to be a good way to downgrade rom :?
...great work! just used it on my qtek s200 that i've accidently flashed with the latest o2 germany rom without cid-unlocking before. now i can really put any rom on it
thanks and cheers, lutz
did i work? what happen when you soft reset after running the downgrade tool?
thx !
everything worked as it should, no idea why it didn't work for you...
cheers, lutz
Ok thanks,
BTW, ignore my PM didn't though you'd reply so fast :wink:
do a hardreset and pray that you get it connected to active sync, buddy...
as said above, it worked exactly as they've said it will. i have no idea what went wrong for you so my help is poor...
cheers, lutz
Actually I tried various time... I'm on the last Dopod rom, i started as said, then when I reboot, the device is stuck on dopod splash screen...
So I have to go into the boot loader in order to reflash the dopod rom I have... at least I can do that and keep my S200 working
Maybe this doesn't work with the last Dopod rom, but at least it worked for others
we need a Thai to Eng. translation to understand the problem
Unfortunately my device can not continue with second step. After I softreset it; the device freezes. Neither hardresetting, nor putting in bootloader and continuing with hard or soft reset helps. I reflashed the latest Dopod ROM and continued to use it.
I can not read Thai language but from the original discussion (not english but in Thai language) I see that a number of people are having the same problem. I also understand that the suggested solution works for some others.
The english version is not a full translation of the original discussion; translation of a lot of answers are missing.
We need the help of our Thai friends to understand what is going on.
I guess that it works on certain rom version, if you've the dopod one like I had, then it confirm that this method is useless with the last dopod rom...
But we have confirmation it work with other roms... maybe it's not really working on SPL 2... roms :?
I took a look on the Thai version, now it's clear that it doesn't work on the last dopod rom SPL 2.15 !!!!!!!
cedrick - Sorry you have failed to CID-unlock your Prophet and congratulations to lutzh that has succeeded.
From the Thai version of this utility, many people could unlock their devices but some did fail to do that. Not sure only the SPL 2.15 or not that couldn't be unlocked but at least 2 people claimed that their devices are SPL 2.15.
The website programmers are still trying to investigate and find the solution to help people who failed. Please hang on. Good luck!
@cedrick:
Yeah my SPL is 2.15
@Khuanchai:
Thank you for information. Hope to hear better news.
Cheers.
No problems about the failure, that's already nice to see tools like that that can help a bunch of people.
Now I hope it will also work on the dopod rom as I really liked it and I would like to update my prophet with this rom. But I prefer to wait until there's a way to get back to whatever rom :wink:
1. download ROM you'd like to flash
2. download dutty's good NBHTool
3. download upgrade tool
4. run nbhtool and extract windows.nb from nbh file that came with ROM
5.run upgraderom.bat and keep fingers crossed
6. do hardreset and enjoy
it should work with any ROM, but it upgrades only OS, not radio, ipl spl...
You must have async connection.(dont work thru bootloader)
Hi Are u sure this works..cos I hv tried several times on MDA compact III with no success at all, all the PDAMobiz versions
it worked with t-mo compact3 dutch v. to dopod shipped. try any other rom except pdamobiz. they are crap & helluva lot of people bricked pda with it
It really works
It really works.
Hello phsnake
I have a simlocked ROM on my Artemis (orange).
does this remove the simlock ?
PHONNY: dream again, if it'll be capable of SIMunlock i'll sell it for £1. no unfortunately it doesnt, it only hardcopy os image.it doesnt remove any locks, pwds.... so it can help ie if u buy orbit thru ebay with ?spanish? rom to put there english.....
nothing else. im sorry im not buzz_lightyear, or others. i only compiled something from other sources and explained it
I have upgraded to pdamobiz but would like to try another rom...will it work for me?
Thanks,
It works to me perfectly. Thanks very much.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ty jsi Slovák?
Also have PDAMobiz powermap 1.1.2 ROM installed on my HTC P3300 but would like a little cleaner ROM. As my device is locked and if this is method is really working, even at least for OS only, I have few questions:
1. Which English ROM is there that I can try and that is atleast AKU 3.01. Newer will be better.
2. ROM supports everything P3300 does - wifi + gps + .....
BTW, if I'll extract the windows.nb from nbh file, whats up with Extended ROM then .... as I understand it wont be included .... am I right. Best option then will be ..... ?
Tnx.
2 cosX: Asi ano ked to mam napisane v profile
2EazyVG:
1. READ WIKI - there are desc. of all ROMs avialable, including AKU versions
2. as above (it means as i remember only t-mo ROMs dont support WiFi - but even t-mo hw so if u have t-mo com.III forget WiFi /except for tmo NE i think)
btw. there will be no extrom, but U can extract all files from extrom thru winimage or so again read wiki
Tnx for your kind reply.
Tnx for your reply.
I tried this and get the following error:
ERROR: ITWriteDisk - An Internal Error occurred.
Tried it on my compact III using the extracted file from the shipped DOPOD rom.
Any ideas on this?
Thanks.

The best way is to hard reset your device before upgrading it.
How can I find out CID of HTC p3300?
info 2 command of mtty doesnt't work.
I tried to flash extended rom and OS using NBHTOOL.
But the flash program said that rom was corrupt.
It works perfect big THX
firstly a BIG THANKS to phsnake letting us know this method to upgrade the os.I finally did it todat and flashe my Orbit to the Dopod rom,and thank God everything is well.Thanks once again.
i follow the steps exactly and when i run upgraderom.bat only intializinge and nothing happen

It means just what it says, that you should keep your fingers crossed while upgrading. Personally, I allways put my left sock on before the right one, too.
Sorry, pun aside, it is just an English expression meaning 'lets hope for the best'. If you are not supersticious, then don't bother.

Now Vodafone WM6 for Herald (VPA Compact IV) is available!!! You can download it at Vodafone Homepage under Support by clicking on VPA Compact IV. In the overview it is not listed. Only by clicking on the Device in the list. Then you must type in you S/N an accept the terms of condition to download the update.
Error 270
Hello,
now i have a second problem. My Herald was bricked in case of wrong Rom installation in the past. Now Vodafone ha released the new rom, but if i want install that i get the Information that there is an update error 270 an the progress stopped directly after 1% of installation. Now i think the problem is that the updater can not read the old informations from the phone and there are corrupted datas from the old wrong rom i had installed in the past on it. Now my Question is, how can i delate the old datas on the phone to install the new Vodafone Rom? Is there a way by MITTY or some other tools?
I hope anyone couldt help me.
Thanks
WM6 Upgrade failed / for no reason / Vodafone Image corrupt?
Well, my WM6 upgrade of the Herald stopped after 1% with error 270 (image corrupted)
anyone had succes with this? I made quite a few ROM upgrades so far with different devices from the same computer. USB cable is working perfeclty. Herald had a hard reset before. So there shouldbe absolutely no reason why the WM6 upgrade should not work.
Any sugestions?
Skynet, did not read your post, had only read first entry of the thread.
I got Vodafone on the line - they will call back since the regular support person does not even know "WM6" as a epxression
For all: I suppose the signed ROM file from the updater is corrupt. Shame on Vodafone. I took me 1 hour to test every single aspect of the uprade process...

The new ROM on the Vodafone pages (at least in ther german version) is
a) the same for Hermes (VPA Comapct III) and Herald (VPA compact IV). That cannot be right!!!! It´s not the same modell
b) it´s not a german but a swiss ROM
I tried to install it on a Hermes. It must be CID-unlocked to work because it´s a german ROM branded by swisscom for Hermes
Even with a CID-unlocked Herald you cannot install it.
I can´t understand why Vodafone puts that ROM on their page. It must be a mistake!!
Let´s wait for a corrrection of it
official Vodafone statement!
i spoke with Vodafone Business Germany yesterday. they confirmed its a corrupted installer. they cannot remove it quickly (its a Big Company and it was friday....) so they told me to wait until tuesday... (written on a wm6 , sorry for the grammar)
apple*
is there already a WWE or a DUT rom available or only the GER rom?
if so, plz give me a link
new one is on!
;-)
How do you identify it as a new one? Did you upgrade succesfully?
** CONFIRMED **
Got a phonecall from Vodafone Technical Support for Business Clients: Vodafone VPA compact 4 German WM6 upgrade DOES WORK now!

Sorry, but it cannot work on the P4350 or the VPA comapct IV as it is a ROM for the hermes (HTC TyTN), which is a complete different device. so it´s not a wrong installer but a wrong ROM.
On my HTC TyTN it is working perfectly.
Post the ROM
I'm waiting for a Dutch Vodafone ROM for a long long time now. I'm even willing to try a GERMAN Vodafone ROM.
But (there is always as but) my partnumber isn't recognised as a GERMAN phone, so no downloading for me.(http://member.htc.com/ruudownload/Vodafone_HermesWM6SnCheck.aspx)
Please post the ROM in the uploads or somewhere.
Hacked it
Nothing a little SQL injection couldn't fix. Will try to RUU it and will upload it...
