Lumpi - or anyone: 2 Quick Questions

All/Lumpi/Anyone:
First, thanks for a great site. I've managed to really appreciate the efforts that go into the work here and on the Wiki, and it's great.
My model: Wallaby TMobile US Original XDA
Current Info:
ROM: 4.01.16 ENG (Thanks to Lumpi's tasty kitchen)
ROM DATE: 02/04/04
Radio Version: 6.18.00
Protocol Version: 324e4
Desire/Objective:
I'd like to upgrade not only to the Windows Mobile 2003 SE, but I'd also like to update the RS to 6.25 (I'm in the US).
Problems:
(1) When I attempt to download the Rom (in EXE format, per Lumpi's kitchen), I cannot execute it as the errors start in the console window (ERROR: GetDeviceData), screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and second screenshot (window #2) :
Previously, without issue, I updated my ROM using the SD CARD Method and another ROM on Lumpi's site -- in fact the ROM listed above, without any major problem. And I realize that Lumpi mentions that this ROM is special, and cannot be used through the SDCARD Load or OSImageTool because this is a differently formatted ROM (being a Windows Mobile 2003 SE edition). Then, what specifically is the procedure to get this working? Do I need AdaptAROM? I'm sorry to ask, but I've searched and could not find the link.
(2) Second, I've tried (from the FTP site) to download RSU_040204_6_25 (thinking, logically, that this is the right RSU for my unit config (Date of 4.012.00 ENG). But how exactly am I to update the radio stack and *should* I update it? Has anyone else used this stack?
Many thanks, in advance.
Lumpi -- if you need space to host another kitchen, let me know.

The 4.01.16 prohibits flashing via EXE file. So you can not upgrade diretly to WM2003SE.
Download anonther ROM eg. 3.17.03 or the XDA Developers ROM 1.2 flash your Device via SD Card and then you can Upgrade via EXE-File to WM2003SE
Concerning the RSU Upgrade, there are different files on the FTP. Some are for running on your PC with connected Wallaby via ActiveSync and there ore some files (Should have _PPC in the filename) that have to run directly on the Wallaby. Extract the downloaded ZIP-File and copy all files to the /Windows directory of your device and run the RSUpgrade.exe
If you don´t have any problems with your telephone i would suggest to stay at your current Radio Stack... Upgrading this is a rixk everytime....
Some made good experiences with removing SIMcard before flashing, some other made good experiences with sim inside...

PS: Thx for the offer, but i think i´ve got enough. Currently I´ve got 2 working kitchens up....

Dump Prophet/M600/S200 ROM : How-To ???

Hi,
I just bought a French Orange SPV M600 yesterday and before making anything on it (upgrading, installing softwares, unlocking SIM, etc) I'd like to dump the ROM and store it in a safe place in order to be able to restore my phone if ever it comes to "brick" state
I read a lot today about that, using mtty, romupdate, bootloader mode etc...but I can't achieve to do it...
1- I kill activesync
2- I put my phone in bootloader mode (camera button + soft reset) and I get the color stripes fine
3- I connect my USB cable, I got the status-message "USB" on the phone screen = OK
4- I launch mtty, enter \\.\blablabla001 as port to connect to = OK
5- this is where nothing works anymore : typing D2S in the console gives an error msg (bad command, type h or ? for help) Something I noticed and being quite weird : I don't have "USB>" as a command prompt but "CMD>"...
6- even typing h or ? makes nothing, I get the same error msg :? The only recognised command is "usb" and the output message is then "already connected to USB"
Is this due to a bad software version ? (I use mtty 1.42)
Is it a SPV M600 incompatibility ? (too recent ?)
Has anybody achieved to dump such a ROM on SD-Card ? If yes, how please ?
Thx a lot !
EDIT : here's mtty's screen

Use r2sd all
this will backup the device to a sd card but ALL DATA on the card WILL BE LOST!!! .
However this command will only work if the phone is cid unlocked.
Hope this helps
Thanks

Hi, thx for your reply.
I tried also r2sd all and I get an error message saying I can't. (something like "authorized level...blabalbla)
Then I unfortunately guess my SPV M600 is CID locked :-(
I hope it will never badly crash before I can achieve to find a full-backup-restore solution...
Already happened once and I had to wait ages for getting it repaired by service-support... If only I had a ROM backuped somewhere I could restore the device in its "factory" state without bothering trying cheating it...
I've read some threads and it would seem that Qtek S200 as well as HTC Prophet or iMate Jamin are CID unlockable...but not the Orange one :-(

Bu what is the program that u've been using to dump the rom ?? Link and name please...

Tu jest do pobrania obraz karty ze zgranym RADIO-ROM-em 1.14.10 ; ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Technical/XDA Exec ERROR 114/
Potrzebujemy kart o pojemności do 128MB nawiekszych nie zadziała ( karta powinna być sformatowana na FAT32)
Jak to robimy (przykład) :
( dysk) :\>ntrw.exe write xxx.img (karta):
where i can find ntrw.exe file
Wkładamy kartę do slotu. Wprowadzamy Uni w tryb BL a dalej tak jak na rysunku z manuala.
Jesli uzyskamy : "sections=1 not allow update".
To oznacza to że musimy zdjąć CID-a .
Uwaga procedura opracowana wyłącznie teoretycznie - nie mam możliwości jej sprawdzenia

can some1 explain this step by step, the pic doesnt really show anything, imean after the boot loader i dont see those stuff? some1 help plz, i have the same problem no gsm = no phone= no life.

I've created this only theoreticaly.
It probably will work if your Uni is Cid unlocked .
You can download image for SD card with radio 114 image here : ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Technical/XDA Exec ERROR 114/
Your card cannot be bigger than 128 MB and has to formatted FAT32
How to create file on SD card - You have to use ntrw.exe ( see sample ->:
( drive) :\>ntrw.exe write xxx.img (card):
You can find ntrw.exe : ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Tools/NTRW_2.0/ntrw.exe
Insert card to Universal .Put Universal into BL mode .
If you will see : "sections=1 not allow update" it means that you have CIDlocked Universal so procedure cannot be done this way.
Other solutions can be done by JTAG pinouts - but I don't know how.

Is there any way we can do a cid unlock and then try loading the radio rom for these handsets......

This doesn't seem to do anything ... tried numerous time yet to no avail..

use SSPL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=801481
when you run the SSPL the first time your phone goes to 3 colors screen and you will get error on your PC. don't worry wait about 10 sec and run SSPL again.
Good luck

First of all sorry to say you broke your mobile
Secondly, now you have no partition or the whatever ROM
... and in these circumstances it is impossible to do update
Third, I think you will never again make that mistake stop connection in ROM update
and in the end the only thing I can recommend to send back to the factory, I'm sorry, honestly but I can not give you any better advice

[Q] Wont boot, wont take factory ROM.

Hi guys.
After triying everything i know about and searching on lots of forums and google, i decided to give good'ol XDA a shot.
Anyway, someone from my family asked me if the phone he just got from his brother would take whats app. It was a HTC HD Mini with the stock WM6.5, so i said "i don't think so", "but hey, you know what? i can install Android in it, and then you could use it like any other Android device!"
...yeah, good idea, for sure.
So i searched, and decided to follow a guide posted on HTCMania.com, wich was the translation of a ROM thread here, on xda, this one: LINK
I followed everything, and i got to the step where you have to execute a .bat file called "install LK.bat". A CMD window appeared, but something went really wrong. Or not, i dont know, the fact is that, suddenly, the phone's screen changed from black with green texts, to this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It will stay like that, no matter what you do, say, pray, etc... . In order to turn off the device, you have to remove the battery.
So i investigate a little more, and try to upload the stock WM ROM via SSPL. I do it in the bootloader menu (what a wonderfull sight after all the good years that my beloved HTC Prophet gave me...).
FAIL!!!! It says that i can go home and cry, because of an error called "ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID"
Wonderfull! so i start looking for every ROM i can think off, factory, cooked, everything. I try to install them via SD card naming the ruu "PHOTIMG", and then turning on the device with the bootloader, it starts loading it, "Loading..." "Checking..." "0028002 not allow". And back to the bootloader tri-color screen.
At this point, i dont know what to do, my phone is Spanish, the service provider is Movistar, but the phone is unlocked (i dont know if it was unlocked by someone, or if it never was locked in the first place).
There are a couple of SPA ROMs outhere, one is generic, and the other is Vodafone. Not to mention, neither of the two works.
PLEASE, if someone can help me in any way, it will be MUCH appreciated.
THX to all.

go to http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.p...wrong one,then it can't flash n say error. ..

Thanks for answering, but that page should sue me for excessive bandwidth usage, LOL. I've already tried lots of ROMs from there, but not a single one would get past 1%, they all spit out the same error: 294: Invalid vender ID
