Hi, I would like to upgrade my Universal from a Swiss ROM to the latest Qtek 1.30.96(German), but can not find proper info on how to proceed. Fact is I get of course the country ID error. I found the procedure for such cases in WIKI, but it only applies for upgrade of ROMs that are in .zip files. And the Qtek one is only to be found in .exe in the ftp.
Am I missing something?
Thanks!
Install winrar, then right click on the exe file for the upgrade and extract the files. You'll need to use the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe file to start the upgrade, you'll find a link to that in the wiki.

Many thanks! I had found it by myself soon after posting. It would have been much more straigtforward to explain that on WIKI directly, and even here in the forum.

As we know, to upgrade ATOM ROM we have to lauch an exe file downloaded from seeo2.com. But we cannot extract any file from this exe file except Boot.nb0 and this file is useless. Does anyone know how to extract other files from it. As I know, there are at least following files inside this exe file:
eboot.nb0
dm.nb0
flash.img
agent.mot
mot.mot
CPLD.img
assetinf.img
extended.img
MDOC.img
Its strange that there is no .nbf file at all. Is there any method to dump the ROM from a working ATOM? Can the Grabit utility grap ATOM ROM to SD? Will it be usable ?
I have dumped it already and uploaded here, but i do not remember are the files you search there.

When you double click the exe file, it will extract files to Windows\Temp foler, files are all hidden.
I'm not sure if this is correct, but I was provided with
Xda-Atom-ENG-20060123_Feb2006_.exe
Double click. This will extract to your root drive
c:\
Device Software Update Utility.exe
diskimage_Ver.nb0
Extendedrom.img
nova_pda_033105.mot
vl1d_pda_Ver.mot
Extendedrom.img can be opened with winimage.
diskimage_Ver.nb0 - can't remember how I dealt with it, but in the "usual" ways I guess! Mamaich's romtools I suppose. Thanks Mamaich!
If anyone can, I could still really do with a live rom dump, using this app:
http://www.vijay555.com/vj/!Tools/dump_167.exe
I'm not sure if it works on the Atom, but I'd be grateful if someone could try it and let me know. A couple of nice guys have tried and failed

Vijay dear friend..
like i told you before...
the DUMP didn't work..
but you have the lastest rom.
any way, in a week or so, a new rom is about to come out, may the new rom could be dumped...?!?
Nadavi..
Exactly assasins, and I'm really grateful for the info.
I've dumped the rom file above, but a dump from the rom isn't the most useful ways to get files out of it. Some files aren't usable from there, so a live dump is best. But not to worry, I'll live without for now.
Oh, but I could still do with an atom registry dump if someone can send me that... gracias!

dear vijay555
is this suppose to wirk with ETEN M600
it runs ok but I don't no ware it extract files
thanx
I think it extracts them to a folder on your sd card, called Dump.
If you've got an eten dump, I could do with one of those as well.
I didn't write this app - I can't even remember where it came from. If anyone wants to volunteer as the author, I'd like to know more about the app!

Will I think it's not working hear
noyhing in my SD or TMP folder
thanks for your help

Guys, what's the storage card called on the Atom?
Is it still called \storage card\?
V
xda atom
its called memory card.
is there have such tool like HTC mtty for Atom?
Okay, I've spent 2 hours trying to obtain this information and am almost giving up.
Where do I obtain my nbf file? I want to change my splash screen but this is proving to be the most obscenely complicated thing I've ever done.
Could anyone post thier T-mobile 2.26 nbf file for me?
search in the Upgrading etc. forum for Wizard, "Cooked Custom Rom How to"
I found that thread and it alreeady assumes you know how to obtain and nbf file. One person gave a link on the ftp for a ROM dump utility and the ftp says that it doesn't allow anonomous logins. I included my user name and password but it wouldn't accept it. Why is this so complicated?
Could someone please tell me how to obtain this file? It's making me crazy. :evil:
Rename the RUU exe file to a rar file and open it, the nk.nbf file is there.Or just run the RUU (but don't click anything) and search your pc for nk.nbf and copy it to a safe location then cancel the Updater.
Thank you so much. In this forum, I read that I was supposed to change it to a zip, which didn't work, this did though.
I would suggest you move any questions regarding this to the Upgrading Forum. That's where you'll get more assistance.
Is is possible to extract files from an NK.NBF file? I am interested in just pulling all the CAB files from within. If so, how?
Thanx.
Another semi-related question...
Is there any way to install a phone rom WITHOUT the extended_rom section so as to have more memory available on the phone? Seems kinda useless to have all that stuff in extended_rom that is only used on install.
Thanx again.
Okay...need only four CAB files...can ne1 help me out here?

The answer to the first question is yes. You have to: use typho5 tool (search the forum for it) to extract the extrom from the nk.nbf file; use winimage (windows xp shareware) to open the extrom .nb file.
The answer to the second question is no, you cannot join the extrom partition to the main one. It was possible with Magicians (the phones!) but no one has been able to do the same in wizards.

I'm so sorry about this. I really have spent over an hour searching and Googling and reading the Wiki but I just can't seem to find this simple thing.
My O2 XDA Orbit is dead so I thought I'd try one last attempt to rescue it by re-flashing the factory ROM (WM5). I found this thread via the wiki http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306904 and am following the instructions for bricked devices. I downloaded the O2 Orbit WWE Wm5 factory rom from rapidshare, I have my device in the bootloader and it shows "USB" in the bottom left and the PC reacted and recognised the device when I plugged it in (but doesn't see it in Activesync).
The step I'm stuck on is that Meschle's instructions say "flash factory rom. (run rom executable or RUU updater from pc)". The rom is an nbh file so I suppose I need the RUU updater for PC. Where do I get this from? I just can't find it.

dude if you downloaded the file the ROM you are talking about then you got ur self sorted - the package u have has the RUU or ROM Update Utility
when u go to bootloader, plug ur ppc to the pc and when u see the usb sign in the ppc screen just start the package u got from rapidshare it will do everything auto!!
let us know how you get on?
best luck with your 'surgery' it will be fine just dont worry
Maybe he downloaded simply a ROM file and not the complete package as usual. Download one of Meschle's or Tom's ROMs for example and delete the .nbh file inside the folder and replace it with yours.

true - Download any rom and delete the .nbh file inside the folder and replace it with yours. if u have ur rom on *.exe u can extract the ruu using winrar by right clicking and following the extraction!!
Direct download - a RUU
http://www.zshare.net/download/657626275df642/
this is a rom update utility - i got it from my files its only the ruu no rom is included so add ur *.nbh file to the extraction folder
BTW why dont u get artemis touch 3.01 rom its the best

Hi all,
I'm probably being really stupid but i'm going round in circles trying to upgrade an SPV2000 to WM5 or 6. Every flash i've tried reports a country or hardware missmatch. Can anyone supply a flash that will work?
Many thanks in anticipation.

look at my signature click the WIKI link and read
or download the archive i attached, extract it to folder on your pc, get the nk.nbf from the rom you want to flash and copy it to the folder in which you are extracted my archive, then put your device in bootloader mode and run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
