Problems!!

If i want to upgrade my wallaby i get an error message in the communications procedure. I have downloaded my ROM from lumpy's kitchen and ive tried to upgrade it many times right now.
Can anyone give me an advise how i could hardflash the ROM of my device?

I think you get an communication error when trying to flash via ActiveSync.
You have to flash via bootloader....

Nothing yet
Ive tried to Bootload te rom, but after the message "connect your USB now" the device does not react anymore.
I have tried to run the application rom but this says that active sync does not recognize a device.
What should i do next?
Thanks for the quick respond!!

Even if i make a bacup to SD this doesnt work. There no explaination how to hard flash the device! Can you give me an advise???

What have you done exatcly, and where is the problem?
It's not really clear for me.
For Flashing via SD-Card there is no USB connection necessary....
STefan

I have tried to flash with the bootloader. When i push on the on/off putton and do soft reset i see the question "connect to USB now". If i connect and i start the rom nothing happens.
Afterwards i have tried to put the rom on my SD card. I have tried to do this OSimagetools. The pc does recognize the SD card in my wallaby. I also dont have a cardreader.
Is there a way to flash my wallaby in the bootloader-mode with the USB connection?
What do i have to do for it?
Thanks

Strange.
You should see device displays a background that consists of four equally sized vertical bars, colored (from top to bottom) white, red, green and blue. On top of this, it says:
WALLABY
Bootloader
V5.14
WAIT
After a few seconds, the WAIT is replaced by GSM OK. Both messages are in the blue bar, but have a white background.
What do you get?
What is labeld on your rear sticker of the device? (modell) ?
Stefan

Its model: PW10A1
SN: HT220cc15300
PN: 99HJ00007-00
Step 1)I have seen the horizontal bars. And its version 5.18. Ive also seen the "GSM OK"- notification.
Step1a)If i connect it afterwards to my USB nothing happens. The computer does not recognize the Wallaby.
Step2) If i hold the On/Off button i get the message "Connect to USB now" If i do this, activesync does recognize my device and i cannot install the ROM.
Step3) after step 1 i press the contacts button and i see 6 ways to backup my rom or GSM. I have backedup my GSM and ROM to SD. But this has no use for me.
Greetz,

Ok. Now I see.....
First of all, you have an totaly unknown Bootloader (5.18) to me, so i hope all steps will work....
You require a SD-Card with >= 64 MB
XDATools ftp://[email protected]/Wallaby/Tools/XDATools.zip
Your downloaded ROM from my kitchen
step1) Boot your XDA up normal and connect via active sync (guest partnership is ok)
step2) Copy all your data of your sd-Card to your local PC otherwise all data on it will be gone
step3) Enter bootloader of your device by pressing On/Off and doing a softreset
step4) After the Message GSM OK press the Contact Button of your device
step5) Navigate with the pad to "CE+BOOT TO SD"
step6) Confirm this with the Action Key (Press the middle of the Navigate-Pad)
step7) After finishing enter again bootloader by holding On/Off and doing a soft reset
step8) Bootloader should tell you something tah OS is detected on your SD-Card
If No -> Problem
If Yes -> continue
step9) Boot your XDA up normal and connect via active sync (guest partnership is ok)
step10) Install XDATools on your PC
step11) in a dos -box (cmd) go to the directoy where osimagetool is located
step12) enter command: "osimagetool -r xdasdslot -w original.nbf"
step13) enter command: "osimagetool --register"
step14) extract the downloaded ROM using winzip
step15) Run osimagetool
step16) Select the nbf-file in the english-folder of the extracted lROM as source and XDASlot as destination
step17) After finishing enter again bootloader by holding On/Off and doing a soft reset
step18) Bootloader should tell you something tah OS is detected on your SD-Card
step19) Press Action Key to install the ROM
step20) After finishing do a hard reset
step21) Now your ROM should be installed on your device.
step22) Locate the created file original.nbf and compress it using winzip
step23) Upload the compressed file to ftp://xdaupload:[email protected]/Wallaby/Uploads
step24) Enjoy your new ROM
That should be alll .....

Thanks, But when i extract the rom to a folder, OS Imagetools cannot find the nbf-file. There is no nbf-file in the extracter-rom-folder. I can only find an nb-file.
There is a file called "NK" which says that its an NBF-file(properties). The file is 32MB large. I have tried to select this file (step 16), but the file is not being recognized. Even if i change the extension of the filename. The OSimage does not support this file.
I Have tried this with 3 ROM's : 2003 SE, 2003 and 2002 neither of them contain the nbf-file in the english folder.
Do you have an advice? I think i am very close right now!!
Thanks,

I have sucseeded to install 2002, but 2003 SE wont be recognized. It says its an usupported file.
Has this anyting to do with the fact that i renamed the file? If so can you tell me how to change the file back??
I have downgraded my wallaby to PPC 2002 right now.
Thanks Lumpi!!

WM2003SE couls only be installed via Exe-File. It can not be flashed with the osimagetool.

os 2.26.10.2
Any help plz guys
EDIT... FIXED THE PROBLEM Found this in and it worked...
Ok here´s how I done it.
First, I must explain what was the problem.
After update the firmware (not actually upgrade, I had the phone full of trash, so I decided to reflash same firmware v2.18 PTG), the Qtek 9100 / HTC Wizard freezed at 2nd splash screen (the one that shows OS versions IPL version, ect). Tried many different versions, upgraded to 2.24, 2.25, downgraded even to 1.6.7.3, but always same problem, freezed on second splash screen. I read many topics on xda-dev, and seen some people with same problem. Apparently there was 2 solutions. 1- send phone back to warranty. 2- write backup ROM from SD in bootloader.
Passed more then 15 hours asking for this SD backup everywhere, and COULDN´T find any help. Apparently no one had this "SD dump ROM Backup".
So here´s how I solved my problem
1- I tought that a SD backup was needed, and yes it is. But u can use your own phone and your own SD to do it.
2- Get a clean SD card (in qtek 9100 / Htc Wizard case is MiniSD) with 128MB (some people say 64MB, but I personally used a 128MB, maybe a 64MB is enough)
3- Kill (task manager) wescomm.exe (this is related with activesync installed on your PC). Insert the blank SD card on the phone.
4- Get your phone in bootloader mode. Like this : Phone powered off, press Camera button + Power On, will enter in bootloader mode (RGB screen).
5- Now connect your USB cable to your phone. And start MTTY_updateROM.exe (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/romupdate.rar). After open, on Port selection, choose \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and press OK. A window will open with a blank sheet.
6- Type "r2sd all" and hit enter... wait to the end (at end shows "cmd>"). On your phone screen u can follow backup progress... small bar will appear down the RGB screen.
7- Power off the phone (or remove battery), enter bootloader mode (camera button + power on) and this time RGB won´t appear right away. Will ask if u want to "download SD image", press voice dial button to agree, and writting will begin. Wait to the end. Power off and power on normally. Now your phone should be working ok. Not even needed to reflash the phone after this.
Thanks to all and hope this helps more people with this problem

5- Now connect your USB cable to your phone. And start MTTY_updateROM.exe (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/romupdate.rar). After open, on Port selection, choose \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and press OK. A window will open with a blank sheet.
The only Port Selections available are:
COM1
COM2
COM3
COM4
COM5
What am I doing wrong?

i got the same problem too
only com1 and com2 r there
pleace help me

Yes please someone help!
I want to try this, too, but my mtty tool only shows some com-ports and not WCEUSBSH001 ! what's wrong?
Does this work with mini sd cards bigger than 128 mb, too? is there a limit?

ok, I have the right port in mtty tool now, but...
when I enter "r2sd all" and press enter it says this:
r2sd all
***** user area size = 0x77F00000 Bytes
R2SDBackup() - Download type = 5
usTotalBlock = 1 sizeof(SDCARD_SIGNATRUE_TABLE)=512
You didn't get the proper security level to download a specific image
Cmd>
what can I do?
any help is greatly appreciated!

Help Needed! Windows Mobile 5

Hello,
Im searching for weeks in the internet for Windows Mobile 5 for my SDA Music. I dont have much knowledge in this Mobile Phone stuff. But my problem is:
I have an SDA Music with Windows Mobile 5 (Typhoon).
Everything worked fine, but someday it crasehd, and since then the image doesnt work anymore. Now I searched for the image again to download, but every link i found was dead...Now im searching for the wm5 rom, to reinstall it. I did it with this installation guide but dont have the files anymore...
Code:
Before flashing WM5 your phone must have SuperCID and SPL v1.01.0109
SuperCID (courtesy of www.spv-developers.com)
You need an alive Internet connection from the computer. Your smartphone must be application unlocked and activesynced with the computer.
* Download the last version of SPV-Service client from here.
* Extract all the files from archive to some folder on the PC and run SPVServices.exe (press OK on the phone when it ask to install TyphoonNBFTools.dll).
* Click 'CID Tool (Alpha)' on the left and press [Set CID = 11111111] on the right. Wait untill it's done.
SPL 1.01.0109
Your smartphone must be activesynced with the computer.
* Download IU_SPL+PatchedRUU.zip from here.
* Extract all the files to some folder on the PC and run Patched_RUU.exe.
* Follow the instructions and it will flash SPL 1.01.0109 to your phone.
WM5
* Download proper .zip file from Downloads.
* Unzip wm5xxxxx.bin file from archive to C:\ and rename it to wm5.bin.
* Disable USB connections in ActiveSync Connection Settings.
* Turn off the phone and disconnect USB.
* Press Camera button and holding it insert USB connector (or holding Camera button press Power button for 1-2 seconds).
* When "Need an UI (0)?" appears on the screen press [0] immediately. You will see tricolor screen, in the blue zone there will be "Typhoon IU" message, if you see "Typhoon XIP" you were late to press [0], start from beginning.
* Run mtty1.42.exe from archive, choose [USB], press Enter and you will see a prompt.
* Type "l c:\wm5.bin" without quotes and press Enter.
* Wait untill the phone flashed and the prompt appeared again, type "ResetDevice" and press Enter to restart the phone or just turn the phone off and on.
I lost the "proper.zip" file and dont find any site to download, or a working link, may someone can send me all files I need or help out in a other way?
(Hope my english istn too bad and someone helps me)

Upgrade without usable Mail button

Hello
I want to upgrade my MDA3 from WM2003se to WM06.
After i have read the upgrade artikel, i have seen, that im must change this
"Enable KITL” must be NO, “Clean Registry Hive” must be YES, “Format Storage” must be YES"
And here is my problem, my 4 buttons (Mail, Explorer, Windows, ok) in front of the MDA are Defect. So i can´t confirm the Options.
Are ther other ways to do this.
MFG Kleinepelle
PS: I know my english is very bad

Logically if you map the mail button to any of the top buttons, that should work as BA still keeps the entire software prior to pressing mail button. However an expert should confirm. Dont take risk.

Hi there ... I have the same kind of problem with my O2 XDA IIs Blueangel. The mail button along with the other 3 (home,ie,ok) are not working or not responding anytime.I was not able to upgrade my rom and format the registry hive
But then i found a much simpler way to do it..
Try the following to format your rom,clear registry hive and upgrade to a new rom-all this even with the mail button not working.
You will need the program MTTY(Attached with this post).
1) Kill activesync processes: Ctrl+Shift+Esc in Windows to bring up Task Manager. Kill wcescomm.exe and WCESMgr.exe (by selecting the task on the processes tab, and clicking the End Process button below)
2) Phone needs to be POWER + Record + Pen Reset and on Serial/USB screen. COnnect it to the PC, and it should show USB, with the backlight remaining off.
3a) Run mtty1.42.exe
b) Select USB from first list (where COM1 is displayed. Don't press USB button). If USB (or a list item containing USB) isn't in the list, then you have't connected to the PC properly.
(Leave default parameters: 8 bits / Flow Control NONE / Stop bits 1 / Parity None / Local Echo No)
c) Click OK
3) Run following commands:
[press enter first to get USB> prompt]
USB>
5. type "set 14 0" without the quotes to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
USB>set 14 0
HTCST ÚÈHTCEUSB>
6. type "task 28" to get your device formatted
USB>task 28

7. type "task 0" to ask your device reboot
USB>task 0
USB>
8) Exit the program, then re-hard-reset (POWER + Record + Pen Reset), leaving on USB screen in order to run ROM Flasher
9)Now be back to the Usb/Serial screen and run your favourite ROM upgrade-A clean installation
Please let me know if this worked for you too. I believe this was my great geeky work i did with my BA. Was so frustrated when the buttons were not
working.
P.S: This is not my own work. I got the Mtty app from this same forum and the steps too. I am terrible sorry if i have repeated a post or done something i should not

Thank you very much.
It runs very good.
MFG Kleinepelle

Thanks to you and to all others <ou mwntioned for this help. Dtipex

Problem with Xplode wm6.11 Upgrade

Hello
PPC: Blue Angel T-Mobile GER
Rom: Xplode Wm6.00.00.WWE
Radio:1.15.00
Protocol: 1337.45
From this rom i want to upgrade to Wm6.1 from Xplode.
My Upgrade steps:
1. Bootloader
2.The ppc shows "Serial"/"Usb" and "v2.05"
2.2 Kill Active sync
3. starting MaUpgradeUt_noID
4.MaUpgradeUt_noID gives no informations about the current Rom /upgrade rom
5.Next
6. Error 150
What i have to do?
Plx help me
Sry for my bad english!
Thx to all

It must be an OS problem
Try using Windows XP rather than using Vista.
I got the same problem with my XDA IIs,
I tried it in Windows XP and successfully Updated to WM 6.1

i have Windows XP no Vista

Give it a try without killing ActiveSync on PC.
1. Put device in bootloader mode
2. Put device in the cradle
3. Start update program (wait till 100% and do not remove device out the cradle)
4. When update has finished, hard reset the device
- If you have a PH20B device such as MDAIII, QTEK 9090, XDAIIs, PDA2K etc, EITHER:
Quickly press "Record" & "Camera" before the versions appear at bottom right
OR press "Power" & "Camera" & "Record" buttons and Reset at the same time
- If you have a PH20B1 device such as SX66:
Quickly press "Record" & "Windows Media" before the versions appear at bottom right EITHER
OR press "Power" & "Windows Media" & "Record" buttons and Reset at the same time
You'll see three options on screen. You must change the second and the third to yes. If you are not developing/testing software you can disable the first debug option for better performance.(“Enable KITL” must be NO, “Clean Registry Hive” must be YES, “Format Storage” must be YES)
- If you have a PH20B device such as MDAIII, QTEK 9090, XDAIIs, PDA2K etc, use "Camera" and the "Record" buttons.
- If you have a PH20B1 device such as SX66, use "Windows Media" and the "Record" buttons.
Note: The "Record" button moves up and down the menu and the "Camera" button toggles Yes/No. When you're done, press the button in the middle of the D-Pad to continue booting.
- Press the "Mail" button. A white screen will show for 30 seconds, while it is clearing your device in preparation for the new ROM to start executing
When the bootscreen, aka. the colored stripes is displayed, wait more, you are booting. The welcome screen to set up your device will appear shortly ...
(if removed earlier) Put back your SD Card before you do the setup. This way the installation from the SD will continue after you have done the setup
5. Your upgraded ROM is now running!
