hi i was trying to flash my friends htc 8125 with the tutorial on this web and now i just have 3 color display or boot mode i think. im new this was my first time i flashet first with buton ... flash but not work error 302 but after i flash with alternative flash was in the tutorial and i get an error to so i dont know what to do how to repair
HTC CINGULAR 8125
IPL 1.05
SPL 1.05
I'm kinda of new too, but I believe you just have to pick the rom u want to flash up to. U r at the ideal ipl & spl. I just did that to mine about a week ago and then flashed it EXACTLY like forum said and then just update to 3.XXIPL & 3.XXSPl. After which I picked 1 of the TNT rOMs and wella! try to flash it up now
i dont know wheres to find the roms do you have a link or something
Have you CID unlocked yet?
Obviously not unlocked yet!
Cause he stucks on step 1 !
hahahaha upgrade an original rom... try the 2.26 tmobile not 3.08 please...
Hey Que
I will be getting T-Mobile any hour today...
I will be following all the instructions and try to use a Cingular card on it.
I'm trying to decide what to use for updating the rom on this 8125 the ipl reads 2.25 the spl reads 2.25. in the tutorial there isnt any mention of these that I can ascertain. the other numbers are os 2.25.11.1 gsm 02.25.11
Is this even a necessity. The unit shuts down and is very difficult to get restarted, seems to be a good unit, just looking to make it more reliable. Thanks in advance for the help.

Your phone is running the official cingular stock rom and has official IPL/SPL 2.25 (Bootloaders),its nothing to be worried about,now it depends if you prefer to reflash the official wm5 rom or wud like to upgrade to latest wm6.1 custom build roms.
If you want to keep official then download the official wm5 stock rom and simply flash it,but if you desire to upgrade to latest wm6.1 rom,as no official wm6 roms are provided,therefore,you'll have to flash a custom build wm6.1 rom,and for that you'll have to get your phone CID unlocked.
my phone is in boot mode i dont have the roms im new wheres can i find the rom that you say the tmobile my phone was with the original cingular rom or where can i find the original one
mmmmm ok!
I dont have the link but you an enter in wiki section for wizard... is a thread that said wizard goes wiki click there and then it tooks you to the wiki pages! there... you can found a link that takes you to the original roms... choose the one you see for cingular..... some links are broken so dont desperate maybe we can found other one... if you dont get it there you can choose the search tool just follow my steps on my signature says The XDA search culture...
Dont be afraid men you only need to use some more things to start unbricking your phone... (I hope so) many things tooks time cause we dont read enough now lets work men!!!
Well avoiding duplicatted posts this is gonna change many times
Here is my RUU without ID http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429327&page=9
I didnt found the cingular but try to unzip the exe file with winrar... the nk.nbf can be cutted and pasted in the RUU folder to upgrade it without ID vendor permissions... we will on touch men!
Xplain more
Xplain more of your problem remember that unlock upgrade flashing dids most be done on XP and without SIM and MiniSD pluged... be sure your batt is full charged and your USB cable dont have troubles.
Can you privide more info abour exactly what you have done... please men we need all you got
OH remember not to use so much your phone on Bootloader screen cause we need the batt almost 70% to downgrade unlock and upgrade again it dont charge in RGB screen.
About getting official Wizard Cingular ROMs.
I called HTC and Cingular they say that HTC is not licensing the Wizard WM6 from Microsoft anymore, so they are not supplying the ROMs for the public.
No official support from Cingular/HTC on Wizard for WM6 or 5 for that matter.
I'm new to pdas I've only ever had cell phones so with that in mind its confusing as to where to start. I'm electronic savvy when it comes to car repair, however some of this is daunting at best. I'd like to take this semi-bricked wizard to the next level.
Everytime I find what I'm looking for the webpage is obsolete, what to do?

First,always post the DOC Chip version of the phone,what is the IPL/SPL of the phone.
Secondly,what exactly is the problem and what you want to do ?
the ipl/spl are at 2.25 and the specific problem is that wen in hibernate mode the only way to work with it is to remove the battery to restore functionality, then that resets the factory settings of time and date and also drops calls etc.

Its a G3 version,download the official stock wm5 rom from here and flash it:-
http://download.america.htc.com/RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1.exe
But,if you want to upgrade to latest wm6 then follow this link and do it correctly as the guide reads :-
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
Good luck
Well I think its bricked no screen and no charge light, should I buy a new battery or just sell it for parts? I really tried to find the correct place to update and I goofed what can I say its my responsibility, is thereanymore I can do from this point?

G3 devices don't get Bricked like this,by just flashing a rom,untill and unless you have flashed any G4 IPL/SPL on it,otherwise,G3 phones never get Bricked.So most probably its the battery,try to get the battery charged or get another battery from a friend and confirm it.
As an update and thank you very much. I purchased a new battery and the the store was good enough to pre charge it. We installed the above official wm5 file and its currently going throuh re updating itself. I did happen to notice that it now has an AKU2 file. Is this an update over and above what I had originally?
Once again thanks....
Are there any problems with 3G sim cards because when I installed the card the phone reacts as if there is no battery. No charge indicator or any activity.
Problem solved, it helps to have the sim card properly seated.......
Thanz!
You are most welcome,glade its working.
Yes,the above rom is AKU 2,its an upgrade to your previous official Rom,always try to keep the battery fully charged,as it creates many problems if it gets below the required retention charge of 30%.
Try out the Guide I posted above and see if you can get it CID unlocked and upgraded to latest wm6.1 rom,thats where the fun begins....!

hi,
i have just downloaded the radio stack from O2 v4.21. I have tried to upgrade through active sync 3.71 it upgraded ok, but when i went to restart the XDA it gets stuck on the boot screen. the one that says test not for resale... and at the bottom right hand corner its says A.30.07 and then locks up.
normally before i tried to upgrade it said A.30.07 the underneath it said 4.20...
anybody know what i need to do to correct it?? i have looked through loads of forum posts and now i'am really confused???
Thanks alot
Zetex :?:
a bit of further info my Bootloader on my xda1 is 5.22
I'am also willing to pay for help i recieve to get my xda up and running again, because without it i really i'am stuck. I don't just use it as i gadget i use for everyday work/pleasure...
Thanks alot
Zetex
can anybody help me????
Hi,
No experts or semi-experts seem to be offering any help. I consider myself a fairly experienced novice so I am not sure how useful (or safe) my advice is. Take care! But here are my observations..........
You say the upgrade went OK? Does this mean you got as far as the message Flash Complete! Press OK to restart your device?
If so, this is encouraging as most of the problems I've located on this forum stopped part way through the upgrade (many at 1%).
Did you follow the instructions accompanying the upgrade to the letter? (ie. kill all running programs, switch off phone etc.)
The 4.21 upgrade is for the PW10A1 model not the PW10B1 (check the back of your xda's case to find out). Not sure how you deal with this one if yours is a PW10B1.
Can you enter bootloader mode? (soft reset with the stylus while holding the power button). If so, this is also good news. Someone with more experience than me could probably tell you what to do next. (Possibly flash a new ROM using the SD card method. Although you upgraded the Radio Stack it may have corrupted or upset your Radio Unit/'ROM'. If you decide to do this, I suggest something based on the v3.17 such as the XDA developers special edition ROM ..... you can always upgrade to WM2003 again later.).
Good Luck!
[/b][/u]
cranny,
Thanks alot for the reply m8, I did try what you have suggested by reloading the 3.17 o2 rom via sd card and now it won't even switch on anymore.
not to worry its gone off to the xda repaire center in Norwich today for repair under warranty.
Thanks for the reply anyway m8

I did pull it from the Artemis and I'm redoing it now. You're right it don't work but it doesn't brick. I looked at the size and the Hex Dump of both and they are similar. The Artemis ROM even had the G3 and G4 IPL and SPL when I decoded the ROM. I had so much hope but no go.
I was considering the Excalibur ROM as well but its bigger than the Prophet/Wizard radio ROMs. I'm more apt Prophet/Wizard Radios are usually around 2.5MB. The Excalibur ROM is 2.8MB. Not sure the the dedicated Radio space on the Prophet but the difference is just enough to brick.
I've already decoded it. If some one wants to try the Excalibur I'll post it.
i dun mind trying excalibur as well.. but redo the artemis 1st. i'll try again once u finish.. if u look at the post in artemis forum it says 2.67 got good battery life.. dat i want!! lol..
Confirming the radio rom does not work as well on my S200
I've created a G3 version for my S200 but it's not working, doesn't find the provider any longer, I'll play around some more, but a no go so far.

I'm the same place after re-extracting it from the Artemis ROM. I'm going to wrap the Excalibur ROM. It'll be posted soon. Anyone wanting to try it, Have fun.

Let's try the next ROM

OK everyone, this one is built from the Excalibur ROM. For all the brave souls:

Radio rom upgrade problem!
I upgraded my s200 RadioROM to 2.63.90. Now my Phone lost Radio Rom and lost the GSM signal. The phone become very slow and con't activesync to the pc. I have try but can't upgrade any other rom now! Can someone help me?
I had the same problem! After radio update, Prophet does not connect to the PC anymore. I,ve managed the problem with the following steps, take them exactly:
1. Download the linked file and extract it in a known place: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Wizard/2_47_11_radio.rar
2. Disconnect Prophet from the USB cable;
3. Enter in the boot loader mode (press power button + camera button in the same time and hit reset);
4. Connect the cable and in the left down corner the USB name will apear;
5. Go to the directory that you extracted from the downloaded file and start ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe (is in itallian, but there are the usual steps for upgrading ROM, so I think you'll manage).
After this, hopefully the upgrade Radio ROM process will start!
I'll repet myself, follow exactly this steps with attached file, this was my way and the only that worked for me!
P.S. Someone should delete the 2.63.90 Radio ROM file from th Prophet FTP, is dangerous and brakes your Prophet!
Thanks very much! My Phone has come back!

What rom are you trying to put on? If you have the problem i think you have, i would not go around asking everyone cus you will get smoked! As its on here like a million times!
First off take your storage card out.. .. send off, flash back to original carrier rom... leave storage card out and flash again..

where can i find th original t-mobile 1.08 rom for the mda....
i cant seem to find it nowhere....
i had the same problem wen i was upgradin to wm6
I guess it does offend the moderators because I just posted the same question after searching and searching for weeks on resolution on this issue. They toasted my thread, probably this one too and I hope they don't because after reading 100+ posts on this topic, there was no resolution. Of course I tried without the SD card. I tried the 1.05 ROM as well as xenin's T-Mobile 2.26 ROM with built in CID unlock and both froze at 98%. By the way is your QTEK 9100 from the factory because mine is and I think this is the common denominator in this problem. Please someone help cause I'm probably new to this forum (not to howardforums) but I know my phone stuff so this is a real issue! Thanks in advance and pls do not delete this thread. Thanks.

You better start re-reading the 100+ posts!
First of all your WIZ needs to be CID unlocked - a 'build-in' CID unlock in a ROM you're trying to flash will not help!
I understand that. That was my second way of trying to resolve it. I originally followed the "The Definitive Guide to Unlocking & Rom Upgrading G3 Wizards" post and followed it word for word (and read all 36 pages). I tried flashing buttons 1.05 ROM (http://rapidshare.com/files/18212239/CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe.html) and got the 98%. The second time I thought I'd give it a shot and tried xenin's T-Mobile ROM with built-in CID and it froze at 98% too! My suspicion is that there is something different about factory phone than SP branded phones. Anyone else?
I also rebooted my PC and phone. Deleted all my session temp files. Tried 3 different computers. Tried without SD card. Everytime I it froze at 98% and had to revert back to the original QTEK 9100 ROM (2.17). And just for kicks I tried installing T-Mobile's original 2.26 ROM and it gave me a "vendor match" error, meaning it's still CID locked.
Umm, if you bought it straight from HTC/Qtek, wouldn't it already be unlocked? From your last post, it seems you do not have a branded or locked phone...
It is SIM unlocked which means I can use an SIM card. BUT it is not CID unlocked meaning that I can't flash the ROM to another maker's ROM (like QTEK to T-Mobile or QTEK to Cingular or QTEK to Custom ROM).
I wsa thinking that HTC and QTEK have tight bonds and was wondering if I can make the jump to an HTC ROM and CID unlock it from there. Not sure if that makes a difference. Kinda stuck

You must flash a FULL carrier 2.xx rom before flashing any custom rom from this site (other than the ones used for CID unlocking)
You will have issues if you skip step 17 of the Definitive guide to Unlocking and Upgrading G3 Wizards (Sticky in this forum).
hi im sorry if i ask a questian who already asked i guess.
Iv been searching for an answer but did not find any.
I´v tryed to update my rom on my qtek 9100 so i could get WM6 in to my device, but it´s always stops at 99% when im installing. so now when i turn the device om i just have the screen whit 3 diffrent coulors on, so pleace any one can you help me get WM6 in my device or else i have to jump on it and throw it in to the trash. Sorry for my poor english im an swedish idiot...
Best reegarde Andreas...
I presume that your phone is still SIM/CID locked.In order to get your phone upgraded to wm6,its required to have it CID unlocked first.
Which is your device, G3 or G4 ? Post IPL/SPL...?of the phone here,to determine the G3 or G4 version of the phone,cuz for CID unlocking,both have different methods.
Cheers!
Cant start it now... Im realy angry at that little thing now...
its all black in the display. Do you have any good thing to do about that?
got it started for just a 5sec then its blck again... done that about 3 times last houer but it want start...
When it gets like this is there no more to do other then throw it in the trach?
or is there hope , can i do like a hard reset or something?

Yes !
Its a G3,download the official stock rom of your carrier from its website,get the phone into bootloaders (multicolor screen),connect via usb cable,watch small usb appear at the bottom of the bootloader screen and run the RUU,let it complete and your phone will boot up to default status and then download WST tool and run the 'CID Action' button to verify the CID lock.unlock status.
But always get the battery charged before flashing.
Cheers!
Has installed the TNT rom now latest.
Hov do i get the HTC look whit a digital watch??
I assume you mean the HTC Touch clock. It's really a lot more than a digital clock.
Try this: http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-htc-home-plugin-v1-0.html
which rom shall i use if i want a clean WM6 and install the htc Home plugin.?
well I think I misread the threads. I understood that since my htc was unlocked that I could flash a spanish rom to it and I went ahead and flashed it it is a cingular 8125 well after the flash ended now the htc8125 only turns on in the three color screen and it says.
IPL 2.25.0001
SPL 2.25.0001
what I am supposed to to now is my phone bricked. help please.
Well you should flash your phone with this "ROM" and then do some more reading.
thank you myhtc but will this get my phone working again or can you please point me in the right direction. Also I can not download from the link that you posted can you upload it somewhere else please.
Reflash using the wizard love rom. You might have trouble finding it if the link I have included is dead. Thats the only sure way. And make SURE your battery is full or at least 75% when you do this.

Well after trying and doing a lot of reading and with the help of some members from this forum got my htc working again and got a spanish rom too.:d this is what i had to do
flash my device using the wizard love rom
flash my device with hard spl
and finally flash the spanish rom
