Hello there,
I have a MDA from T-Mobile germany PW10A2 with an RUU version which was probably 3-13-12-GER and a RSU which was probably T360.
I dowloaded 2 update files on the site of T-mobile germany:
http://www.t-mobile.de/shop/handy/1,4855,2963-_50-0-99,00.html
- t_mobile_mda_ppc_update_v3_19_03.exe
- t_mobile_mda_gsm_gprs_update_v3_23.exe
Since I wrotte them an Email, no answer, and the page has been cancelled.
What have I done:
- I installed the PPC 3.19.03 through Activesync: no problem
- I then installed the GSM GPRS update: once it started updating on my MDA at 10% it kept stucked. After 20 mn I decided to interrupt.
Since that day I have the white screen with the litle keyboard down right and that's about it.
My boot loader is V5.15. when it runs it displays "WAIT", and then "GSM ERROR"
As suggested in this Forum, I bought an SD Card, and a card reader writter, I wrote the RUU file NK.nbf contained in the downloaded .exe file from T-mobile. I flashed my room (proposed when I cold reseted the Wallaby) and then : NOTHING HAS CHANGED !!!
I tried again with a cooked Rom flashing a NK.nb1 file and... I got the ROMKitchen splash screen and... nothig else.
The display stays all white, you can read "this ROM was cooked in the ROM Kitchen" all on top af the screen and in the lower right side I still have the keyboard Icon.
Now I'm really worried !
Does any one have a suggestion ?...I believe my problem is realy serious.

Hate to tell u that mate, but if your device can't be recognized by ActiveSync, then the only action is to get the device to be repaired by a specialized center or replaced.
However, check this topic carefully .. it might help

Good luck
Good news bad news
I have an SX56 with att, I had the same problem. rsupgrade failing at 1%, hard reset, and then the device white screned. First, downgrade the rom. Find the old update program, open it with winzip (or winrar) and you should be able to extract the rom image. get http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/XDAtools place the rom on an sd, softboot while holding down the power button. the device will now offer you the option to load the rom from the sd, do so. once this is done the device should display the old roms ID. If this works, format the SD card, create a directory 2577 copy the program RSUpgrade and associated files, rename it as autoexec insert the card in the phone, and you should be able to reflash the RSU, if this fails.... time to break out the jtag header or be ready to send the unit in
My MDA is dead and buried
Thanks to both of you guys, for your concern.
I had actualy already tried your proposed solutions (I had found in this forum except yours rszasz).
My MDA is less than 2 years old and I took it to a T-mobile shop in germany (during a business trip). They're proposing either to repair it, or to replace it (The guarantee is still runing).
After having flashed a cooked a rom in the kitchen, I still had the same problem, so in the perspective to bring it back to a T-mobile store, I reflashed the faulty file I had downloaded on the T-mobile Web site.
I hoppe they won't find out and make any trouble.
I like this MDA so much, I don't remember how it was without it !
All the best

Hello everyone!
Thanks to all the users and admins for this great forum. I've found a lot of useful tips here, like getting the Scandinavian letters to work, and I look forward to be a part of this community.
I've been using PDA's for quite a while but this is the first combined PDA/phone (unless you count smartphones, and a brief encouter with the Nokia 7710 which I hated )
My list of PDA's goes something like this: Palm M100, Palm 3C - a long pause without a PDA - got a M100 again - IPAQ 3850 - Pocket Loox 710 - XDA Exec
My list of phones would be about this: Nokia NMT 101, Nokia 1611, - Nokia 6110 - Nokia 7110 - Ericsson T65 - SE T68i - trial user for a nokia 7710 with TV - Motorola MPX220 - XDA Exec. Had some other phones too, but used them for a short while or bought them as spares.
I recently bought a used XDA Exec, the rom is 1.13.48 WWE which is ancient. The Exec seems very unresponsive and slow compared to any PDA I owned earlier also it seems prone to crash. I have some warranty left, so I'd prefer to keep an O2 ROM since then I'd have less to explain if I need to get this thing serviced.
I figured my best choise would be the "Xda_Exec_Upgrade_v1.30.162.exe" with a corporate install, since I'd rather be without the clutter as I wont use any O2 services.
A few questions:
1) My boot loader says "serial v1. 00" Should I upgrade it to 1.01? Any performace imrovements or less chance of bricking if I update it?
2) I downloaded the ROM from the O2 page, although I'm not in the UK nor do I have a O2 phone number. Is it safe for me two install the firmware or will I get a locked phone or country errors (got the fix for that just incase)?

1) For new ROM upgrade, bootloader v1.00 is good enough. Unless you have nothing better to do, you can play with v1.01
2) Those ROM you are talking about are grandfathers' time ROM. If you dare, try some of the ROMs cook by our fellow guys here.

In a ROM, besides the upgrading tools, the actual software is in 3 files
1. nk.nbf (M$ Part)
2. ms_.nbf (Extended ROM, sevice providers software), do not change this, just ignore by moving to another directory.
3. radio_.nbf (UMTS/3G/GSM part)
Steps,
1. Ensure your normal mode cable connected (not InfraRed) activesync works.
2. Backup you current Applications, Contacts with Outlook and whatever that is important to you!
3. You need to run/copy (exe type) or extract (zip/rar type). You will see a lot of files including the above 3 files.
4. You can upgrade all 3 or individually by moving any of the unwanted 3 files to another directory.
5. Set device to bootloader mode.
6. Use MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe (not ROMUpgradeUt.exe) to avoid country errors. Run it and just wait.
Splash screen (O2, Imate, Dopod, Qtek Logos) maybe the wrong one, but if you can live with it, it is ok. If you cannot, the is tools in this forum, use the search tool.
SIM locked is different thingy all together, have never tried unlocked tools. Use the search tool here for unlock software.
Good Luck
Thanks CWKJ for your feedback!
About the ROM, I know the one I'm thinking to upgrade to is almost a year old but as I said its mainly so that I don't get any warranty issues. I'm thinking that if I have to return the phone and it boots to a QTEK-splash screen then I would have a lot of explaining to do. The current ROM is just so slow that I can't live with it.
Once the warranty is over I'll gladly experiment some more. Especially if there are some nice crossbow components or wireless improvements.

Thanks for writing those steps to me. I did search thoroughly, and found many guides but yours is the most easy to follow. I'm having some problems with activesync on my laptop (although it works fine through bluetooth) so I guess I'll try it on my desktop, which probably is smarter anyway so that the computer does'nt go into standby or hibernate in the midst of the update
Edit: My phone is unlocked, I was just worried if the software update would lock it for me. But I guess its silly to worry in advance.
Notebook has battery and standby mode can be switch off. In case of power failure (it will be very unlucky if it happens), the upgrading still goes on. The same (continue upgrade with battery) will not happen for Desktop. LOL...
Make sure is cable connected USB activesync.
One more point to note, in Bootloader mode, it is connected, but you will not see the activesync in operation!
You can change the screen (but software version can be checked), you can flash back the old software.
You can use the free tools here to unlocked again.
I installed WM6 and already tested 3 different roms. But the last two after the installation have various problems.
1) I get errors for some files that they are not signed
2) On the second rom upgrade I got a new WMP shortcut and on the third upgrade another one also...
3) Is there a large speaker fuction for this phone while upgrading to WM6?
Could you help me please? Am I doing something wrong?
Hello everyone.
1st of all, i'm so tired of searching in this whole forum regarding my issue. 2 days so far and no luck, so please if i missed some posts that would be unexpected.
If this post is not in the right place please mods relocate it because i couldn't get the main forum for my kind of phone.
I'm from Latin america, I got a HTC HERA110. I don't know if it's unlocked or not.
The main issue is that the phone is totally dead. The only thing i get is, i think is like a bootloader, it has RED, GREEN, BLUE screen and prompts and nothing more. I tried several key combinations with camera key, soft key, power key, even that little reset dot above SD slot. Nothing works. Only information i can get is this
IPL 4.24.0002
SPL 4.24.0000
I brought my ph to my local service provider tech support but they said there is no luck for my phone and i can't just leave it like this. But i know XDA-Devs are even better than those idiots. I got another HTC Juno (T-Mobile Shadow) and here i found several useful info and i started learning related to Windows Mobile based phones.
I read something regarding HardSPL and that stuff and since my IPL,SPL is greater than 1xxxx several posts explained i can go ahead and reflash the OS.
I tried that HardSPL stuff but most of them required to have the phone alive to store some cabs on it and install them so since my phone is dead, that's not gonna work.
So far i realized my ph is hardware similar to T-Mobile Wing, HTC P4350, HTC P4351, HTC P4350, HTC HERALD. So i decided to re-flash the whole OS...
So i tried to get some NHB files. I got the Original on T-Mobile Website and some others for HTC HERALD and HTC P4350. I actually tried with another one called HTC ATLAS.
My Ph is been connected to my laptop via USB. I got Windows 7 x64, i don't know if that is a problem. So i started trying all those RUU flashers.
Before 4%-5% of the proccess the screen on my ph prompted a progress bar and somehow it goes blank and i got some errors such like INVALID VENDER ID (with HTC ATLAS and T-MOBILE WING), INVALID MODEL ID (with HTC P4350), UPDATE ERRROR (with HTC HERALD).
I tried with that NHB tool to extract the NHB files ( this is, supposly, to fix INVALID MODEL ID) but it didn't work, after tried that one i got UPDATE ERROR. I even try with that GoldenCard stuff with an SD card but i couldn't even export the .img file, i got an error on the cmd lines and inside the Pearl Manager i can't fine XdaDevelopers packages.
At this time i'm really frustrated and so tired. I don't know if my ph is branded to any company here such like Movistar or whatever. The only thing i know is that every single thing i tried promptes errors.
I would really appreciate some help here. Thank you and the best lucks for you.
The HTC Hera is the T-Mobile Wing no? And I think its the HTC Herald not the Hera...
Also isn't it based upon Windows Mobile rather than android. I don't think this is the correct forum for you.
yes this is the wrong forum. i got the post's name wrong is not HTC HERO it's indeed HTC HERA but somehow moderators moved my post to the wrong place.
now I finally made my gold card works however it's not working. I got alos the heradiag.nbh in order to flash using the SD goldcard, but now the main issue is that i can't move into the diag tool with the keyboard. i'm pressing several keys but the only thing it's doing is a VIEW CHECKSUM screen when it prompts the whole nhb checksum but i can't make it perform the flash. Need help!
Thread moved to Herald section.
I've been searching for two whole days to find some WWE cooked roms for the asus p535, and i could barely find anything, so i have been searching for roms on russian sites (i love my mom, she translated a lot of info for me) I am posting this because almost 99% of links from English forums/websites are dead, and someone might be in desperate search for rom updates, just like i was. I can't put up the credits though because, as i said, i don't speak russian and i didn't want to bother my mom with it more than necessary.
I will try to periodically update this post in case i find anything new.

Is any other way to do this without the reset buton? ... because mine is broken.
Thanks.
you can't gog to bootloader without combinaison button... if your button is broke, you can easily open your P535... mine is still here... sometimes i use this one to test my skins on small res...
I already opened my P535, i've just bought it. It had broken screen(the screen is fine but the touch does not work) and have change it myself by my P525 Asus screen(that works fine). Same screen P535 and P525, same batery....
I also want to try Android on P535.I loved P525 so much and now it looks very bad.
I think I need to take P535 to service, for repair that reset buton .
I wonder if there is Titanium to work on WM6 P535. Does anybody knows?
Sory for my bad english.
Thanks.
Windows mobile 6.5 works like a charm on P535... when i use my P535, i made some rom with a Friend... French & english version...
support 64 Mb & 128 Mb, clean and full stuff version...
LastesT ROM are here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508315
About your broken Reset... you can use USB flash method... now i remember method using actve Sync...
Read more info with link !
Thanks, but I read on your site (i think) and in the tutorial it say this
"Connect your P535 to PC via USB port. Press Rec+Power button (at the same time) and then Soft Reset (Press Rec+Power button util Boot Loader program startup you will see message Waiting)."
This mean that I also cannot instal, and i am afraid to brick the phone.
To P525 I managed to change many times, in miniSD mode.
By USBloader I managed to brick my Samsun Wave s8500, so if I need to press Reset... I am afraid to brick this one to. (Of course Wave works now thanks to a friend... after 8 weeks of trying...)
But there isn't Titanium for WM6? I only want to have Titanium for the menu, not necesarly WM6.5, if it's posible.
Anyway in few days I'l take the phone to service to see that the reset buton can be fixed.
Very good job with that roms.
Thank again.
1 - TITANIUM is WM6.5 basic UI
2 - USB loader is only used to turn your device on bootlader mode then flash using MiniSD
3 - Flash is easy as well... my P535 has been flashed more than 500x... and is still alive... Flash on P535 is very easy...
If you have some trouble... you can upgrade using official method to WM6.1... no more version after this one...
Have fun !
I mean I am afraid only because cannot press reset... If the reset buton can be fixed I will instal WM6.5 ...
I tried official (I think), update by WI-FI and update by PC-Sync ... there is an error, code 80072ee7 ...
I'l wait to fix the reset buton.
Thanks for the answers.
Can someone help me please?
5. Press dpad up + record + camera + power buttons simultaneously and then push the soft reset button
when i do this, i get the white screen with do i want to reset or just carry on green button for reset, so if i press this, it just simply resets my current os and hasnt loaded a new rom
i can get to the same screen by just pressing reset and dpad up.. is this the same?
how do i actually get it to load the new os off the sd card? as i seem to fail at that point
thanks
its ok done it now, but all roms seem pretty much same crappy
does anyone have a link to one of the ones that run something like the htc touch flo interface? i have seen this one but couldnt find a donwload for it
I have instaled the one like HTC(I think) ... name is "rom0.zip"=> galaxyII.NBO I think is the one with SPBshell
I like this phone now more than S8500( this only has superamoled screen), on this OS
Can the screen be replaced by one with 256k colors?? The phone is better with a better screen. Don't knnow how to explain .

Try this one, but it isn't something very good... asus p535 is pretty much a dead phone now, no one has one these days, and i bought mine by accident two weeks ago (my neighbors father had one for gps and didn't need it anymore), because i've been looking for one for three years already (i had one but it died and i sold it for parts). There are barely any people still using this phone. If i get an english kitchen by any chance, i will try to make a good stable rom with 6.5 wm and touchflo 2d.
