Hi guys,
I'm attempting to upgrade to WM6 but not having much luck using Soft/Hard SPL for starters thanks to sleep4.exe. (what is it and does it NEED to execute?)
I can use Vista x86, Ubuntu x64, Win 2003 x86 (Anyone got Active Sync 4.5 to work on this?) if i need to.
From what i've read, Fariahs upgrade seems to be the best option. Any other fun stuff i can play with? I won't be devastated if i brick it but it would be nice to keep it going till next year if poss! lol
Cheers!

Greetings, I have been searching and can not find the answer well at least in non tech speek. Wiki FAQ will not open for me for some reason.
I have just bought a SX56 for my daughter it was locked on AT&T, we are not on AT&T so I bouhgt a un-lock on eBay. THe unlock went really easy but to get it to work I had to load a ROM that pointed here. Once I unlocked it I noticed it had Windows 2002 in it. I wanted to upgrade it to 2003. I have a disc that I also got from eBay for my 2 T-Moble phones I upgraded. On the CD it has an upgrade for the AT&T SX56. When I tried to do the upgrade it said it did not reconize a ROM image. So here I am.
1) How do I upload Windows Mobile 2003?
2) I see on this forum there is Win 2005 should I do this rather then 2003?
3) IF 2005 how?
My two trusty T-Mobile phone (wife and I have them)
1) I noticed the "new" phone has better reception then either of my other phones is it a better radio software build? If so how do I get it on my other phones?
2) Can I upgrade the T-Mobile Phones to Windows 2005 and if so why is it better?
3) If so how?
THANKS!
First of all, your are a little bit a silly boy buying an unlock out of ebay, because it's all for free here from this forum. But this is something completely different.... ;-)
First of all, there is no WM2005 for the Wallaby-Device you have. So you can not upgrade to it.
When you atke a look at the phone, that has a better receipient, which Radio version is installed? You can get most radio versions on our ftp-server
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wallaby/
But updating Radio could end your device in a paperweight.......
Also on the ftp, there are some "clean" ROM Images you can use for upgrading to WM2003. Or you can cook your own ROM at http://www.romkitchen.de
You can use the exe file and therefore you must only have a activesync connection between the PC and your device.
I would suggest you take the 4.01.12 ROm-Image....
Stefan
Oaky so I paid $3.00 to find you. Now I will donate 2x that because your help okay? <G>
So I now understand the ROM has 2003 in it THANKS!
Merry Christmas!
Built a rom made a donation and can't get the rom to load.
I tride to put the ROM in My Documents on the phone via Active Sync latest build. I get an error message that there not enough memory.
There is nothing on that phone yet.
Am I just stupid or what? LOL
You do neither have to pay for "my service" here, nor for my kitchen.....
When you have downloaded the ROM in exe-format, just run the exe file on your PC where your Wallaby has connected via activesync.
You do not hat to transfer the ROM to the device via activesysnc.....
Stefan
Thanks I made a small donation because of the effort you put in here not any other reason.
I will run the Rom NOW. fingers crossed.
Same error message, "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged
Cannot open C:\Documents and Settings\namedeleted \Desktop\rom.exe"
Please check the file size. Must about 16 MB.....
In the moment i have a little bit problems with my romkitchen. Transfer will disrupted after 90 seconds..... :-(
If you have a slow Internet connection (< 1.5 Mbit) this could cause the problem.
Stefan
I will kook another
No soup From the Kitchen
Just cooked a fresh one und, "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged
Cannot open C:\Documents and Settings\XXX\Desktop\rom.exe"
I am now trying the SLOW version. Some times I hear slow cooking is better.
Wow that is going to take a LONG time to download. LOL!
Download perfect and it is installing this time woooooo whooooooo
By the way Stefan are you a,
Multiplex
Graupner
Robbe
Or
Jamara
kind of pilot?
Glad to here it's working.... ;-)
By the way. I'm a one and only Multiplex (Profi mc 4000) pilot.....
No better choice availabalbe on the market 8)
Stefan
Incidentally, I thought I'd chime in as I have a Qtek 1020 Wallaby device with a ROM version of 4.02.04 dated 24/8/05 - I'm guessing that must be the newest one, would I be correct?
Regards,
Neil.
I knew I liked you!
I was the Multiplex importer to the USA for 9 years before Hitec bought out Herr Kussbmaul. Profi 4000 all the way, still the best.
Yes I am the crazy guy who had www.multiplexrc.com
I will be in Nurenburg for Toy Fair in Feb.
THANKS for all your help!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Vista is here from some time now, and I think most of us have made contact with it. Now the last information about upgrading was made by yonn1981
Make "search" button your best friend!!
I'm using Vista ultimate edition and never had a problem upgrading my JAMin using old or new method! I even made HardSPL with vista just replace and edit .bat file! (why should i install another windows using virtual machine!!!)
This is the one...
Vista upgrade guide should be followed (once) to be able to use the vista_RUU
Guide vailable here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=1600161
or here (same as above):
http://mahmood1.com/upgrade_pocket_pc_ruu_in_vista.aspx
IF you only wants The vista-RUU:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...1&d=1197014861
All what you have to do is to replace the .nbf file and upgrade!
Note: I have been using this since long time and never had problem upgrading my prophet (G3) in windows vista in any matter!

But no one has confirmed this info.
Have anyone tried yet ? Or have a better solution or experience.
Please, this is only for native flashing, no virtualization methods or dualboots.
It's possible to flash a G3 device under Vista natively. The G4 RUU doesn't work well, and the G3 sometimes has issues...
The HP H4350 (iPAQ) is compatible with WHAT ROM?
One of my clients knows that I'm pretty active in the PDA/PPC Modding/ ROMming arenas, and gave me an HP H4300/4350, last night to flash and modernize...
Since I just got up, I figured I'd just ask the crew(s) that I know are involved in the same smeg as me..
You guys.
Here's the Skinny:
Microsoft Pocket PC
V.4.20.2 (Build 14053)
1996-2003 Micro$oft Corp.
Processor: Intel PXA225
Memory: 56.77MB (w00t!)
Anybody got anything? ROM(s)? Bootloaders? Flashing hints/ tips/ instructions? A swift kick in the ass?
Hit me up!
Thnx, all.
Just give it back.
There's nothing you can do with it.
Last ROM for it was Windows Mobile 2003 in 2004.
And as it does have 32MB ROM, WM5 was never made for it as it requires at least 64MB ROM.
D-OH!
That fxin sucks...
Hi all,
sorry about my english.
On my Mda i would installed the sd-version of android .
Before this, i update my radio rom from 1.17 to 1.18.
But during the update/ installation i become an error.
Since that, my Mda show me the bootloader (serial/usb).
No chance, to run the "exit-bootloader" file, because the usb-connection is killed.
I have deinstalled and installed the windows mobile devicemanager, but nothing happend.
My last chance, to activated the hardreset had no function.
A call to HTC linked me to xda-developers.com
So, can someone help me, please ?
Thanx
Schuschi,
Try the advice I posted here. Don't forget, to follow my advice you need to ensure Activesync or Mobile Device centre is configured to NOT connect via USB.

Hi Phil,
thanx for your reply.
My OS is 7 and i've tried your post. On the screen of my MDA i see "USB".
I've deselect "connect via USB" in Windows mobile device centre...the driver for Win 7 was updated.
The problem: there's no usb- option in mtty , which i can select...only com1 and com2.
So i try another cable and test it again.
Regards
Schuschi
I don't think it will be the cable. I had problems using Win 7 and went back to my old XP laptop. Do you have another system you can use or can you load a virtual XP machine? I have never successfully used mtty on a Win 7 machine - sorry!
no prob...
yes, i've a XP on a bootable stick, which i test it now.
I'll let you know about the results.
Thanx so much for the moment.
PS: Did you have experience about android (emulator) on a mda pro ?

Yes I did but it was very slow and my XDA Exec vibrated lots and LOTS but I think that is just how the Android build sets itself up on the HTC Universal. I tried it twice and got the same results so went back to VNInt's build of Win 6.1

and Homescreen PlusPlus with the clock theme

Hi Phil,
my Mda is alived...it was the "wrong" OS.
No probs with XP.
Thank you so much
Glad you got it sorted, what ROM are you now running?
Now i'm using Tomal V12 WM6.5 build 23089, but i'm looking around to find a "better" rom.
The reason to update my rom was the app "Whatsup", which runs on Androids...
As solved, closed
