Xdarit doesn't write with new .nbf files ?

I use the Xdarit to read & write the Rom image from my MDA.
I managed to read from the SD card and stored on my harddisk.
When I create back with a new rom .nbf files to the SD card and read back again to the harddisk, the SD show the original files size that from my MDA not the one that I'm going to upgrade to ? I rename the files to .nb1 extension.
Do I need to reformat the SD Card ? Do I need a new SD Card for the download ?
Dear XDA developer #..., please advice. I have been posting and yet to get some good advice and replies.
I would appreciate very much of your expertise in this matter.
Thanks again

they should be the same size, nb1, and nb0 files always are fixed size

more answer:
- when using xdarit you never have to format sd cards.
- renaming files will probably confuse XDARit, since this
is how xdarit recognizes what kind of file it has.

What I meant original file sizes.
1. Read from SD Card ( backup from MDA )
bootloader 5-15.nb0 256 K
WindowsCE 5-15.nb1 32,512 K
2. Write to SD Card ( with new ruu extract from O2 ie )
bootloader 5-15.nb0 256 K
WindowsCE NK_Wallaby31413wee_O2_Fulll.nbf 31,745 K
3. Read back the backup step 2.
bootloader 5-15v1.nb0 256 K
WindowsCE 5-15v1.nb1 32,512 K
As you mentioned, the files size are fixed, therefore my files of
the 5-15v1.nb1 should have the content of the NK-Wallaby.....
and I should had leave the file extention as .nbf without rename it to .nb1
Or should i had wite back using the step 1 files name ?
Please advice, many thanks

if you rename an .nbf file to .nb1, you will burn an incorrect os image
to your xda. making it unbootable in OS mode.
( your bootloader will still work )
also, be careful updating your bootloader, if it fails somehow
it is very difficult to restore your xda
if you just want to update your OS, only write the ..nb1 file
or select the .nbf from your distribution, without renaming it.
this http://openwince.sourceforge.net/jtag/iPAQ-3600/ might
give you an impression on what you would have to do, to repair
your xda after you've trashed your bootloader

Bootloader still appear but buttons not working ?
Thanks XDA developers,
My case is that I might accidently overwrite the bootloader.
The bootloader still be able to appear and the GSM OK showed but none of the functions button be able to work.
Do you think there is a way to work around ?
Many thanks for your replies

can u tell about bootloader version?

Bootloader v 5.15 on a T-Mobile MDA with 3.13.12 GER & Radio T310.

i think u can try to make sd card that contain wallaby path (.nb2) using xdarit... logically u can access "action button" to flash the rom.... this is only way to activate "action button"
after insert sd card u can go on bootloader and see wallaby path, press action button, if it work u can flash the rom (may be u should find exact rom that installed before xda died, more work?)
hope u can fix this prob
regards

Hello All,
I can't write new ROM image to SD card with XDArit: I can read image from card, but when I try write new ROM image, I get "Failed to open device \\Physical device12" error message. I try both USB and PCMCIA card readers, but don’t work… What is the problem? (My PC is an Asus P4 notebook with WinXP Pro)
Thx your help & sorry my bad English
Hanzy

try to change device "mass storage device" with driver from manufacture, use one of xdarit executable 180kb or 1.39mb (find out in other thread)

Hello,
I install manufacturer's drivers, but isn't work
I download (found) only 180kb version of XDArit (and source code, but my C++ knowledge... khm...)
Can you write the 1,3mb version's link from me?
Thx

from http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1094&highlight=xdarit
found this link, try it
http://givemebeer.com:8080/warez/XDA/xdarit.exe

Hi,
thx your help...
I read on another thread, XDArit work only with USB 1.1 ports... My laptop have only USB 2.0 ports... :roll: I changed my laptop with one old IBM Thinkpad and XDArit work correctly...
Regadrs & thanks
Hanzy

Not really, coz im using usb 2.0 and its work normally

I only have USB 2.0 ports too and it worked fine.

Just searching for why I couldn't get XDArit to work with my system - seems the larger (presumably debug) build of XDArit has what's needed to work with the v4 nbf's - thanks for the pointer!

How to fix failure during upgrading ROM

I have a siemens sx56 with AT&T. I was trying to upgrade the ROM version to unlock it. Using XDA developer software and during this process, somehow the connection between the computer and the phone stopped (active Sync). Now the phone is not responding and the screen still displaying the upgrading process. I tried to reconnect but the Active sync does not recognize the devise. I read in this forum that you can solve this problem by using SD card with a good ROM version. Here is what I did. I copied the NK.nbf to the SD card using my computer SD read/write slot. I inserted the SD card in the phone and did the boot loader mode. What I got is "Wallaby boot loader v5.22 GSM OK" that set. Does the phone will automatically ask to press action to start flashing or I have to press a certain key. I tryed all the keys but they give me different tests that they work fine. So far I am not able to find the key that will install the the cooked rom. After that, when I tried to use the SD card in the computer, it did not recognize the card and ask me to format the SD card. I tried the fat and the fat 32 format and download NK.nb1 and/or NK.nbf and again I got the samething. Do I need to down load the ROM file using the XDAtool or just copying the file from the computer to sd directory will do it. I would really appreciate it if someone points out the best way of handling this problem (i.e. get the phone to work with the appropriate ROM and unlocking it) thanks.

Bro, you shouldn't change the Sd fat you erased what's written on it anyway your unit is still on the safe side and you can bring it to normal.
First of all downgrade your bootloader to 5.15 >>>
goto this http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=3274

Hi,
I also have exactly the same problem with my Siemens SX56 as those of Seif's. My Wallaby's boot loader version is 5.22. Ramram said that the first thing to do is to downgrage bootloader. But I couldn't understand how to downgrade the bootloader because I do not have a copy of old bootloader. Should I use 'OSImageTools' or 'XDArit' to write backed up CE image to SD card?
Seif, how did you solve your problem?
Best Regards

You need XDArit to write the rom to your SD read the past post on how to copy rom to your SD which is the safest way of installing the rom into the device, by using XDAtools press on FIX BROKEN BOOTLOADER this will downgrade you bootloader to 5.15 don't forget to connect your unit to the cradle when you want to downgrade.
I recommend 1rst of all to make a quick search in threads to be totaly ready for this
this would help :

Good Luck now.

Update : How to fix failure during upgrading ROM
The problem was solved. Here is what I did. I copied the NK.nbf file to the SD card using the XDAtools. It seems that the XDAtools uses special format for the bootloader that well recognize the ROM file on the SD card. Rafia your bootloader (v5.22) is fine you do not need to downgrade it.
You should follow this procedure:
1. Install ActiveSync that comes with the device.
2. download XDAtools from this site and install it in your computer.
3. Cook the ROM ( or get it by extracting the zip file from the XDA developers special edition ROM.)
4. Use the XDAtools to copy the cooked NK.nbf file from your computer to the directory of the SD card
5. Insert the SD card in the dead device and go to the bootloader mode (soft reset while pressing power key). Make sure it has more than 80% battery before starting.
6. If it is still working and the bootloader ver. is older than 6.22, it will ask you to press action to start flasing.
7. Once finished, remove the SD card and hard reset, wait 60 sec and hard reset again.
Good Luck and special thanks to Biso for his help.

Thanks a MILLION for this info. I'm in the same boat, with bootloader 5.22. One question though, when I'm in bootloader mode, which option do I choose from the menu to transfer the ROM to my device from the SD card? Will there be something automatically coming up? Or will I use one of the options listed below:
1. CE ROM TO SD
2. BOOT TO SD
3. CE + BOOT TO SD
4. GSM ROM TO SD
5. CE + GSM TO SD
By the way, so I never do anything to ruin my device again, can someone please explain what each option does?? I really don't have a clue.

as you can read from the menu you type in all these options are to the SD card
and they are to backup i suppose
rom upgrading should start automatic when a sd card with valid rom is in the sdport
and you are in the bootloader
maybe it ask you i forget but it's not something you have to find browsing
the menu's

Thanks for answering my question. Now I simply need to find a really good ROM to use to load back onto my device. What I would like to do is end up with Windows Mobile 2003, but the device is locked at the moment.
Can someone recommend a ROM for me to load onto the device so that I can then unlock it and THEN upgrade to 2003? Or is there a 2003 ROM out there that will also unlock? Originally, I ended up in this predicament by upgrading to the 2003 upgrade from Rogers AT&T, but that locked the device on me. I then tried to use a cooked 2003 ROM, and that's where I am now, without a useable device.
Thanks for all replies!

Thanks, Ramram. I'm sure I'll have more success this time, but it's just odd that I went from a 2002 ROM, which was unlocked, to the Rogers 2003 ROM, and the phone was locked after that.
I guess I should stay away from that Rogers ROM then?

Why to worry about the Rogers Rom you know now a way to unlock your phone.
I assume the Rogers rom is based like the At&t rom which it has the sound clipping bug , so I'd rather say that you could cook a T-mobile rom 4.01.16 WM2003 and try it it does not have the sound clipping bug..

2003se upgrade for a dummy

So, ive read post after post on performing this task and it is still beyond my capabilities. My wallaby is running ppc2002, rom version is 3.20.06, radio version 4.21.01 protocol version 32s54. It's running bootloader 6.22, i havent got active sync, xdatools wont run due to missing dll's or some such thing. Have a 1gig sd and a 512mb mmc,,,,
How can i upgrade with this setup? visited rom kitchen (awesome site) and cooked up a rom, extracted NK.nbf,
Need help! Surely i can upgrade with this equipment,

Right, well got active sync which meens the dll's i needed are in system 32 or whatever. But,,, Does bootloader 6.22 cause problems?? Thanks for all the help,, sure this fone is a bit old but who cares. Massive screen, runs office, windows media, touch screen, great fone

Any suggestions? I cant be the only one without a data cable or cradle. At the end of the day i want the fone to run best as possible. I am thinking there is alot more compatable software for wm2003 then ppc2002? @ the moment im running mame and pacman,,,,,,,, Speaking of software, is the media player in 2002 meant to be slow? As far as video go's ive given up there.

what is your problem?

Problem is i dont seem to be able to downgrade from bootloader 6.22 to 5.15 so i can update the rom to 2003. doing ll this without a data cable or cradle.

Bootloader should not cause any problems.
Missing Dll´s for XDATools came as you have ssen correctly form ActiveSync. So you need to install this programm on your PC to use XDATools. Afterwards you will be able to wirte the ROM on your SD-Card and then flash the new ROM on your device.
So if you don´t have any cradle or cable, and don´t sync with ActiveSync, how did you manage your conacts,install software, exchange files, ....?

I see the confusion
I have card reader's on the front panel of my pc. So i am using xardit to transfer the bootloader images onto either an sd or an MMC card. So i transfer the patch with the NB2 extension on to the card. Cold reboot xda and it gets to the normal screen telling me i need the keycard.
I can use either xdarit or isoimagetool to transfer the .NB1 file on to an SD.
I have no data cable, so these are the only methods i can use. Just pc with multi card card, sd car, mmc card.
LumpiStefan, the rom kitchen is a damn fine peice of work!

when i had a wallaby i only ever flashed it using a sdcard reader
was pretty easy used ositool put the nbf / nb1 on the sdcard
after which the cardreader could no longer read the sdcard(that mean it's successfully planted)
then i put in the sdcard and entered the bootloader and it autostart upgrading
and when it's don i hardreset and thats it

Hi And thanks
I have tried this with a 1g toshiba sd and a 512 sandisk mmc, neither seem to auto start an update. I have browsed the web a bit and have found different theories on bootloader being a problem. My card reader is a panel on the front of my pc, or using my ngage. tried formatting fat16 or fat32. Im sure it's currently ppc2002 as this is the first screen after the o2 water screen

I think your problems come from your card reader. Many people have reported, that the internal card reader causes problems in writing the ROMs in correct way on the cards. I would s uggest to use an external card reader/writer.....
Stefan

and those are only 10£$€'ish

Thanks guys for your help, all up and running now. I appreciate the advise. Rudegar, my problem was getting the wrong info from elsewhere, the solution was the card reader, Cost me $9.00 au to buy one. I thank you both

ROm Update form SD Card

is it possible to do that?
I brick my Heral when I trying to patch IPL, now it stack in boot mode.
I try al avaliable on xda ftp rom updates but always I got "Incorrect file" .
My Herald is from Rusia (cyrylica on keyboard)

it is indeed possible to do so. i am not sure of any IPL/SPL requirements, but here are the instructions.
1. take your sd card
2. take the .nbh file of the rom and rename it to "heraimg.nbh"
3. put it on your sd card
4. put it in your phone
5. go into bootloader. if already in bootloader, soft reset.
6. follow the onscreen instructions

it shows only checking sd content ant after that it is stacking on bootloader informations (IPL, SPL versions)

what kind of card is it? I do not believe this is possible with microSDHC cards as well as cards of a certain (relatively high) capacity.
Make sure your card is empty except for the file and that is formatted to FAT16 ( I think)

indeed your card must be formated by Fat 32 (use your Windows Explorer to format the card)
Besides this issue, I'm not sure if it is possible to do so if your devide got stuck changing its IPL. Which one did you try?
To make sure; use the official RUU rom from HTC.
Download it; open the exe file with WinRar to extract the nbh file included and use this file to flash your device.
Good luck

dont waste your time, those methods doesnt work. If u r goin to try to... "recover" your device with this method... you're just wasting ur time (you'll end up with a Invalid Certificate error)
theres no solution

It could be beacuse the ROM that you are trying to flash requires Hard-SPL.

Phone hang on three color screen...

Hello,
this morning I had a bad surprise. My HTC mini doesn't work anymore and now when I turn on, it get stucked on three color screen.
I use the HTC Sense 3.5 rom and, until today, all works great.
I try to hard reset the phone, to reinstall the original rom, but without any changes.
I would like to try some commands from adb or fastboot, but my phone cannot be recognized from this tools. I have try to change the USB driver, I installed the google driver, but without success. Only the htc ufficial rom is installed correctly but when I restart the phone, I have always the three color screen.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks, Alex

what is your os on your computer ?
if windows 7 64 bit install usb eugeniausb drivers and use mtty (you have to select the usb port there) console. phone has to be in tri color mode.
send "task 2a" to the phon, it should format nand and restore radio.
had this problem too, that was the solution

My OS is Windows 7 x64.
I have tried your drivers and now I can send commands with mtty.
I send the command that you told me and in the screenshot that I have attached you can find the results. Are errors normal??
My phone is always in three colors screen.
I must send other commands?
Thanks for the help.

yes, bad blocks are normal.
when you have finished restart the phone and flash official ROM for your device !

Thanks for your patience.
I have flashed the original rom, the whole process works fine, but when the phone is restarted (after completed the installation) the three color screen returns....

hmm, you could try task 28, task 29, then task 2a...
dont remember, i think i have used all of them

No success....:crying:
The three color screen is always there...

what does it show ? (best would be a picture of the screen)

In attachment a picture of the boot screen.
As I say in the first post I didn't do nothing for brick the phone. I only turn off the phone yesterday, and this morning I only turn on it.
Are there some commands that I can use in mtty to understand why the phone is bricked?
Thanks again.

hmm.. everything looks as it should..
i am out of ideas.. what about trying to flash a newer firmware ? (1.07.xxx is pretty old)

I have tried with a new version, 1.36 if i remember well (I don't have the phone here now), but the result is the same.
Anyway thanks for your support. I'll send it to the techinical support or I'll buy a new device.

I can see your phone hang on spl 1.07 so mean your ruu not installed 1.33! I domnt think that your phone is bricked but I think you have not installed rom (fully) by RUU (mean all parts from ruu). I never success trought ruu (only if my s.n. match ruu! So you need to have gold card in order to install rom (nbh)! Your hboot is all time 1.07 so that mean you done installed only rom parts instead of whole RUU... so definitely you need gold card and you need to reinstall rom by sd card! Of course, always "task 29 than task 2a" before everything

How can I create the gold card?
Is there a tool that can I use?
Thanks!
EDIT:
Now I've a GoldCard, but what file I must copy in the card and what name must have?
I have done several attempts, but I receive always the message "no image file"

You can not create gold card now without working windows phone, so you need to read cid from an working wince in order to generate gold card

Ok, I understand, and so I have a wrong gold card.
I have another WinCE Device and so I could build a correct gold card.
Can you provide me more information? How can I create a gold card for WinCE?
After creating the gold card, what can I copy in the SD? The .nbh of the official rom?
Thanks!

I have another WinCE Device and so I could build a correct gold card.
Can you provide me more information? How can I create a gold card for WinCE?
After creating the gold card, what can I copy in the SD? The .nbh of the official rom?
Thanks!

You need revskills software for generating gold card for wince but free version only can read sd card cid, but if you no want to buy it I can generate one for you, just send me cid and I will generate! Chose photon in menu! Do not reverse cid! Search for right cid (you can see many cids but only one is right so see right disk size that match size of the your sd card and copy that cid!!!), than send me a cid by pm and I will send you back file!
About nbh, yes! You need to extract nbh file from ruu and rename it to PHOTIMG.nbh and copy it to sd card... reboot phone to spl and installation will update your photon (but only if gold card is right)!

Ok, Thanks for the info and for your help!
When I'll come to home, I'll send my CID to you!

I finally restore my phone!!!!!
The goldcard installation works fine!
I post a small resume for others people in case the problem come out to someone else.
After the first try with MTTY I try to follow the "Goldcard way". I try to use an old SD Card of 2GB.
First of all I use the guide for Android, but the gold card doesn't works. After I use the Windows CE way with the help of munjeni, but the result was the same.
In both cases the installation fail with the message "no image file".
Finally I change the SD Card and I use a new one (4 Gb size). I follow the Android guide and in theory I have generated a goldcard for Android.
I copy the PHOTIMG.nbh file in the SD Card and the installation works!
Thanks to schlund and munjeni for the help and for the patience!
