I have a probl with my mda compact, is in bootloader mode and i can't exit it. I've tried update but when i do this the screen of the maupgrade is empty (it have to show the version of current rom and the version of rom to upgrade... see some topic below this, there's a discussion...).
If one of you can post a backup rom of his mda compact can i upgrade mine with a sd card?

hi, after unlocking extrom and getting rid of all the stuff in there which gave me 9.83 MB of additional space I am having a couple of problems.(the extRom is called extended_rom2 - can I change it)
1.so , I would like to cook my own extRom with my own applications but I'm having problems doing it.
everytime I edit my config.txt(uk t-mobile) and put it back to extRom together with the CABs I want to have auto-installed after hard reset are in fact not getting insalled ..only the CABs which were pre-installed on t-mobile extRom are getting installed. any ideas, solutions anything popeple??
2. the phone pad dosnt support 3G telephony (video talk button is gone - the dial pad is just the basic win version) I assume I need to re-instal a cab responsible for this but which one is it.
uff..thx in advance for any help.
cheers, cudo
ps. when doing custom extrom can I instal cabs from SD card and only put config.txt in the extrom ?

Now there's no way I'm going to cook up my Universal, I'd be too scared of burning it!
Sorry, couldn't resist. XD
Hello all,
Yes I’m sure your sick of hearing this: I'm new to all this. I picked up a T-Mobile PW10B1. It has Wallaby bootloader V.15
Rom V3.14.40
Radio V 6.18
Not sure what other info would be of help.
I have downloaded a lot of the tools,(maybe to much). Cant seem to make it all work. When i try to use the XDA2 after following the
instrucks i cant get XPiss to see the USB device. Don’t know if I’m even in the right place. Any advise would be appreciated.

Thank you, I'll install one and try again.
I have an unbranded Chinese P800 from eBay and would like to upgrade it to WM 6.0. What I have onboard :
1. WM 5.0 OS 5.1.525 (Build 15364.3.4.4)
2. Processor ARM926T OMAP730
However, one perculiar thing is that I can't find any Device Info on IPL, SPL, Radio ROM etc. I've tried using WST 4.2.2 but to no avail. I'm using my Lenovo S10 Netbook running XP and ASync 4.5. What I've managed to do are :
1. Run USPL, it goes from 0.. to 60.. and hangs, I reset my P800, USPL resumes to 70..100 and the RUU program starts,
2. the screen on my P800 turns dark with the Linux Penguin and some message of mapping, preloader etc comes on temporarily before Windows comes on again,
3. RUU runs, upgrading to image 9.99 (original image is blank-no info), when UPDATE ROM IMAGE ON YOUR PDA PHONE comes on it never gets to more than 0% (no blue progress bar), my P800 screen goes dark, loses connection and I get ERROR(260).
I have done this several times and there is no way I can verify if the CID is unlocked as I can't get the SPL info anywhere. So I will appreciate any help I can get. Thanks in advance.

Hi mouse.co.nr,
Many thanks for your reply and pointing to the right direction. I'll get to it asap and post the outcome (success I hope!)
Hi Salimbs,
just another note,
in the past I found myself in big trouble (not with Himalaya as it was SD flashed) but with Charmer and Magician ROM updates, also with ROMs that I have already used in the past and classified as stable,
Roms used to get blocked during upgrade leaving me in Boot mode if I don't remember bad..
I have noticed that this error was common when Ms. Office applications like for sxample Word or Excel was turned on!
it makes like a kind of disturb to the rom!
once closed (all office and not necessary applications) roms updates smooth and bug free!
Don't remember if it was an Err 260 or not, I just remember that update blocked at a certain point...
try to do your upgrades with office turned off!
wish it will help to solve your problem

Hi mouse.co.nr,
Well noted and I'll keep this in mind. From your experience have you ever tried the SDHC.cab so that your phone can read the micro SDHC? I ran it in my phone and now my STORAGE CARD is gone! Anyway, thanks again. Cheers!
Not SDHC my friend but Artemis SDHC,
I don't know what is exactly the difference, maybe one is for big SD and the other is for MicroSD, anyway I've tried the one for artemis and now I'm working with a 8 GB micro sd, and it can go till 16 GB.
I've tried that with other artemis ROM versions and works very good...
For your problem have a look at this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345038;
and download the programs indicated below...
What I advice you to do is the following:
1) remove your SDHC card (it have a sort of bad luck with any upgrade that needs a reboot)
2) copy SDHC_Artemis_back2original.cab to your documents folder (PPC documents obviously) then run it, soft reset.
3) then copy the correct SD HC for artemis "SDHC-Artemis.cab ", in the same way of the above and run it.
this shuld work "I wish for you"
let me know..
how about the ROM update? did you succeed at the end?
have you also updated also GSM radio ROM? generally original roms come with a 2.11.... version, old and not always good in reception!
I advice to change it in 03.18.90 shall work well also with your provider, for GSM signal WIFI, GPRS and GPS..

Hi Mouse,
Thanks to you my STORAGE CARD problem is solved! However with regards to my ROM update I'm still a little confused.I've managed to patch the artemis_jumpSPL_pof_v1.nb using Kermit the Frog(jumpSPL.exe). After that I run the RUU again but I still get the same result-0%Can you tell me how or show me the relevant threads?
Hello Salimbs,
Kermit sounds funny but it's the first time I don't know how does it work!!
try the ufficial SPL unlocker for artemis, nothing more,
download from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
* Connect your PPC through Active Sync (connection shall be established),
* Run start_uspl.exe from the Artemis_USPL package in the link above,
* Run till it reachs 100% and Dos Window turns off alone, and launches RUU upgrade interface..yes, yes, continue, continue.... 100%
* After device shall have SPL 1.11 and so you can load new ROMs
let me know if it will solve the problem..

Hi mouse,
Actually "Kermit the Frog" is the icon for JumpSPL.exe. Anyway, like I've mentioned in my first post everything seems OK except that I can't check for the SPL and when the RUU runs it never gets to more than 0% and then I lose connection and get ERROR 260. I'll be trying again and let you know of the outcome. Once again, thank you, I really appreciate your help!

Hi Salimbs,
sorry for hearing that...
try to enable RAPI before USPL!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320155
Remove SDHC card (and uninstall SDHC software from ppc)
Then USPL
Then Rom Update Utility

Hi Mouse,
I'm open to all suggestion. I'll try it again and we'll see. Thanks.
I'm afraid that I've not met with any success after trying all the combination and tricks mentioned in this thread. Every time at the part of the RUU flashing it never goes beyond 0% then I lose connection and get ERROR 260. I would appreciate any help I can get, and thank you in advance.
Hallo,
i have got a p800 from china and have the same problems. I tried all things but the update doesnt work. The connection always interupts with err260.
