Unlock German ROM ?? - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Hi.
Is it possible to use xdaunlock with any german ROM Version. I tried it with 3.02 and 3.19 and it did not work at all.
Is it somehow possible to install the "XDA-developers Special Edition ROM" and reconvert the system to german afterwards.
Once the radio stack is unlocked is it possible to re-install a different (in this case german) ROM ?
I will be thankful for ANY useful ideas to unlock my german ROM.
Hanno

Radio Stack
Additional Info:
My Radio Stack is 4.21

simple backup your ROM and boot with SD.
than install special edition rom, you phone will be unlocked.
you could restore your German version later!

Backup
Since I don't have a SD-Card yet is there another way to make a backup and restore the ROM ?

Unlocking
If you have a serial cable for the XDA, then use the XDA-Manipulator Software. It worked for my XDA.
Greetings, Kaputter

if you don't have SD card, you need to buy one to get everything safe!

Has anybody unlocked the xda with radio stack 4.21, I remember reading that it had been tested with 4.20 and earlier but I see no feedback on later versions.

Thanks for your support:
Could anybody please tell me what I have to do now step by step in order to get my xda unlocked SAFELY ?
(How to make a backup/ what to do if flashing new rom fails).
Isn' it possible to simply re-install the original ROM files if there are some problems ?

you need get a SD card (>64m) to backup your XDA to ensure safety!
before flashing/unlocking ...

....and how exactly to make a backup on SD ? which tool or function ? (and how to re-load the backup in cas of problems)
Since there have been reports on crashed xda after having tried to flash the ROM I don't want to make a stupid mistake.
Thanks for support, this forum seems to be the only place around where one can find experienced xda users.

Problems updating ROM, I need help, please.

I'm trying to upgrade my XDA with ROM version 3.14.16 GER (Model number PW10A1) with the upgrade file (v3.17.03) downloaded from O2 UK website (I mean, I would like to change the language only). When I execute the upgrade file runs ok, but after several steps occurs the following error: ERROR 007: NO ROM IMAGE FILE. Cannot find the ROM image to upgrade your Pocket PC.
I also have tried with XDA Os Image tool (downloaded from this web) with Source:...NK.nbf and Destination: Device Memory (via Programme A) but there is another error: Programme A not found -run with '--register' error openenig target device (but Porgramme A is installed on my PC).
Thanks in advance.
What language are you trying to change to?
Now it's in german, I want to change to english.

Ok I suggest you upgrade to the Qtek 1010 ROM
http://www.carrierdevices.com.au/downloads/asiapacific.htm
Download Radio Upgrade File : RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG).exe
The D/L comes with both the ROM and the Radio Stack Upgrade last time I checked so just do the ROM.
or you can go with the XDA developers Special Edition ROM v1.2
http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
http://www.xs4all.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
either way your ROM will changed to English.

Thank you very much but I've tried the two ways. The first one doesn`t work because there is only the Radio Stack Upgrade file and with the second one I've got the same error than before, ERROR 007: NO ROM IMAGE FILE. What I'm doing wrong?
I don't know anything about the German ROM, but what about using the SD card flash method? It lets you get around the Programme A problems that occur with ROM's such as those from T-Mobile.

I don`t know very well that method. What I have to do? Do I have to do a copy of the ROM file to SD card first and then copy it to the ROM of XDA from the SD card?
Thanks a lot.

Basically I linked to the information necessary to do SD card flashes from this thread, as well as covering other issues with changing ROM's, such as with the bootloader (5.17 is an extra technicality) : http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3860. You will need an SD card reader which shows your SD card as an extra drive in explorer.
Let us know if you have further problems.

File is corrupt !!! :-( Please upload again .....
I have changed my Prophet from Qtek S200 V 2.9.7.9456 (it's russian release) то the one.
In fact, I am done:
1. Back up ALL with Spb Backup to self-extract EXE on SD card
2. Reflash device with fixed romupdateutility which does not check Vendor ID
At this point all is OK. Just blank system with from-the-shielf customisation sequence.
Then !!!
3. Restore ALL with Spb Backup
Final soft restart after restore and. Oooops! Hmmm. Unforeseen consequences here. First of all, error message at startup:
"The file 'sddaemon' can not be opened. Either not signed... bla,bla,bla... You might need to reinstall or restore this file."
Then, some time later I got popup saying that "\Windows\TimeWizard not found"
Checking the version shown something wrong:
ROM: 2.15.13.27 WWE
ExtROM: 2.9.7.9456
It looks like SPB backup restored the full ExtROM! And the restored files has some version mismach.
I was sincerely beleiving that it is a way to minimise time need to ROM upgrade, huh, that was wrong...
Is there any way to upgrade ROM and keep all my customisations and applications? Or I need to reinstall all the applications from the greenfield and all my custom tunings should be lost?
Finally, I have reflashed it again and reinstall all the software. All the rest data are on SD or on my PC... And than I need to customise it again...

Try Sprite Backup 5.1. It include the tools to restore backup to the new ROM.
Working flwlessly in my case, just update my prophet from dopod ROM to latest iMate ROM and restore all my software and settings.
Will try the latest dopod ROM over the week end.
con anyone confirm that the new dopod ROM is Faster and more solidly than the last Qtec ROM ??? had anyone do a Benchmark ???
Upgraded to Dopod 2.15 WWE, fast and stable. But I can't delete file in Ext_ROM after unhide. All files in Ext_ROM were restored after del and soft-rest.

Is this the chinese or english version and has someone tested it yet?
thanx
peace
I've read all kinds of opinions on restoring a device after a ROM upgrade. From what I've gathered, Sprite Backup is the best for this. That being said, personally I never do it because somewhere down the line something always eventually messed up on my phone. I just bite the bullet and reinstall everything.

backup my original rom !?

hi all,
I have read carrefully and used the search button but no one is talking about making a backup rom of its original one.
before to install a new one I prefere to have the possiblity to roll back.
if you know how to do it ...
thanx a lot
a new newbee user
V1605 vodafone sfr (qtek 9600)
ROM 1.23.163.3
date de ROM 06/18/06
version de radio 1.06.00.00
version de proto 32.27.7010.01w
Use SPB Backup!
SPB Backup will NOT back up the ROM.
I also want to back up my original ROM so that I can roll back. This is necessary if you ever have to send you PocketPC back to the manufacturer any kind of reasons.
There is a way to dump ROM (see WiKi), but no a way to flash the dump back. So, the only "backup" currently is an official ROM update. There are a few in the WiKi as well.
Thanks for your input Lurker0.
What can you do with a dump ROM ? I mean can I do something with it ?
I have the WM5 emulator on my PC, can I dump my TyTN ROM and put it on my PC so that the PocketPC emulator behaves exactly like my HTC TyTN ?

Thanks - but again:
How do I get a COMPLETE dump of the Terra / Wing? I only can read out the OS - no SPL/IPL - NO Radio. How do I get this too?
Thanks
@papamopps
any idea how to find out the IPL/SPL version of the Heralds? It's easy to find it out on the Prophets
update:
Solved. Thanks papamopps!
Does someone own a utility to flash an OS or extrom etc. without the ActiveSync Connection? So in bootloader mode? Can't someone figure out how the RUU is capable with this function? It would be very very handy..

Some people from Hermes forum told me that the modRUU in Hermes is indeed a modified bootloader.exe. The original bootloader is exchanged by this one - so you can flash unsigned or with nbhgen signed OS.nb.
But this bootloader was taken from a prefactured Hermes (so as beta) and nobody has something like this for Herald.
So if you really want to crack teh bootloader - good luck.
hehe.
I´m also disappointed that there is (for now) no other chance.
could it be used for my c800?
ASerg-Imgfs (ImgFS Tools Version 2)
how can i use it ?
copy the extrom to folder(HERALD.WM6.WWE.ASerg.3US)?
Hi ASerg,
can you explain how to use ImgfsToDump and ImgfsFromDump?
Is it something with which you can create a dump to a memory card to be restored in bootloader mode from the Herald ?
Always looking for a way to recover my bricked herald that only go in bootloader mode without CID unlocked.
Thank you,
Chris
Up!..........
Hi and especially Hi to ASerg
as far as I know the extrom is about 10 MB which is not used in the herald official rom. Using the tools above it should be possible to make my own extrom , isn't it ? Do I have to use JumpSPL or similiar before using them ? Has anybody used done it so far (except for ASerg) ?
So I can make my own extrom and flash it but how can I install software which will run from the extrom ? (I've seen the ROMs of ASerg and he managed to install runnable software in the extrom ...) Please tell me the secrets
TIA !!
it can recover just the OS part of HTC Herald ? It would be REALLY useful !!
ps. still playing with Platform Builder to recovery my HTC herald dead device (btw, isnt mine!!)

Can I downgrade after upgraded to WM6

Sorry for asking stupid question....I searched on this forum, couldnt find answers.
I read on official HTC site, that after I upgrade to WM6, I cannot downgrade to WM5 anymore.
I found many customized ROM here (WM6), if I used that ROM, can I downgrade to WM5 after some times?
thx
Of course you can ...
how is that done, do you just overwrite everything with the standard HTC ROM or do you have to delete the Hard SPL and radio upgrades first?
You can do, but once you have WM6 you will not what too...
May be an idea to keep a copy off your orginial rom,
incase you want the exact same one back...
