ma_upgrade doesnt work - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development

Hello,
i tried to flash my blueangel to Windows Mobile 6 Build 20758, following the instructions in the wiki.
Now i have a problem with flashing the device. I downloaded the rom from the wiki-page (Version 3.02 without ramdisk) and extracted it to the directory where MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe (version 1.32) is. MDA III is cradled and in Boot Loader Mode (USB displayed). But the device couldnt be recognized ( screenshot and i cant do the upgrade.
i carefully followed the instructions from the wiki.
What i am doing wrong ?

Maybe your rom not's good ?

just click the next button... and see what happens next..
cheers
evo

as long i upgrade or reflash any type of BA ROM (wm5,wm6,wm6.1) it did not show my current device version, usually when you through this option there is nothing wrong just klick upgrade and your device will flash.

So far i know, u dunt have required HTC RUU files. The 20758 package has only nk.nbf file and no RUU
go to buzzdev downloads on buzzdev.net(u need a username for that) download the wm2005 upgrade from there. Extract it. then replace the nk.nbf with the wm6.1.20758 one. just run BAUpgradeUT.exe and u will go fine
remember to put your phone to bootloader mode by press [record]+[on/off] then reset.
if the error says: connection error. Take out the Mem Card and I recommend you should take out the sim card too. Also ensure that your battery is charged more than 50%
Edit: BLUE ANGEL MODS! Please upload the cracked BA RUU on the wiki or stiky it at the forum. coz usually roms posted here dont come with the RUU

Burning ROM - phone not working

Hi, I'm hoping to get some help with cooking and burning ROMs to my o2 XDA.
My original product specs are:
ROM Version: 3.20.06 ENG
Radio version: 4.21.01
I cooked and then downloaded 4.01.00 ENG from Lumpi Stefan's site, then ran the rom.exe file that it produced for me. Everything worked fine, and then I rebooted my XDA. Upon first boot the phone appeared to work, but after performing a soft-reset because the XDA froze, all of the phone functionality appears to be not working.
When I do a hard-reset I get: Wallaby Bootloader v6.22 - GSM OK which I think looks good as far as the phone functionality is concerned. Looks like it's the OS that's on the XDA which is causing the phone difficulties.
I read somewhere that if you burn any T-Mobile ROMs an SD card is *required* to reverse it and put a different ROM on the XDA. Well, the cooked ROM I downloaded is from T-Mobile - I didn't know this before I started!
I don't have an SD card, and am in dire straits about getting my phone to work. Is it possible at all to get this to work, or perhaps to go back to my original ROM (I backed it up to orig.nb1) using XDAtools. Anytime I try to burn the .nb1 file back to my XDA it fails. Or is the ONLY way to get an SD card and use the Bootloader technique? I even tried downloading the 3.17.03 ROM upgrade directly from the o2 sitebut it fails.
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you.

this is true with 4.00.10 and 4.00.16 but not anymore with 4.01.00.
if your xda still can be connected to activesync, try to reflash the ROM.
Otherwise, you have to use the SD flashing method.

Thanks, I will try. ActiveSync still works...
I notice you are running the same ROM version as me - sis your radio still work?
Can you verify that I am trying to Flash the ROM correctly?
1. Confirm that I have orig.nb1 - yes, it's there - backup of original ROM before I started this whole dilemma.
2. Ensure that XDA is Activesync'd - yes, as "Pocket_PC" - all working okay.
3. Right click on orig.nb1 and select "burn"
4. OSImageTool.exe then pops up and copies orig.nb1 to Programme A.
5. A DOS box then appears saying "ERROR: GetConnectionType - A
ote host. error getting connectiontype".
6. Programme A then runs and after pressing "next" a couple of times, I get an error - "Error 011: Cannot execute the remote communication program. Pleace make sure that the USB cable is properly connected."
And that's basically it.
I have tried different variances of this, but all without success.
Help!
BTW, I'm logged in to MSN Messenger now, could you let me know when you're online - or anyone else, for that matter. My address is [email protected]
This message means that the current ROM in your XDA can't be flashed through Program A ... not a big issue, for unknown reason it happened with me few times ... but now you have to use SD card to flash your ROM.
Here is an update...
I have played around some more with the XDA with no success. I have now bought a 64MB SD card and am unsure as to how the ROM image on my PC gets onto the SD card. This is how I have been doing it:
1) Insert SD card into XDA
2) Place XDA into cradle
3) XDA then ActiveSync’s to the PC
4) Run OSImageTool.exe and select the following –
a. Source: “C:\Documents and Settings\Paul\Desktop\orig.nb1”
b. Destination: “XDA SD card slot – unknown size”
5) Then I press “copy” and I see the progress bar go across to 100%. After this appears to finish, the program just sits there not telling me it’s finished. I assume that it’s all okay and I then close the program
6) Take XDA off cradle and hold power button down whilst doing a warm-reset
7) The following appears: “Wallaby Bootloader v6.22 – GSM OK” – nothing else happens, and from what I have read it is supposed to ask if I want to perform a ROM upgrade. However, I can get into the diagnostic and flash tools by pressing the action button etc, but nothing is in there to upgrade the ROM.
Does the fact the OSImageTool destination says “XDA SD card slot – unknown size” matter? I’m assuming not because when I have transferred the ROM using the above steps, the XDA asks if I want to format the card; meaning that the transfer worked okay. Do I have to have an SD card reader/writer on my PC to get the ROM onto the SD card?
I have read a little about a Bootloader patch – do I need to run this, and how do I get it onto the XDA – using the same method?
I would be very appreciative of any help that can fix this, as all I want to do is get my three-day old XDA working again!
Any other comments and help in relation to solving this hair-challenging issue would be great!
Thanks,
Paul…
Ok ... from what you wrote it seems your doing it correctly. However, I have doubts on the file orig.nb1 you are using ... maybe it wasn't copied properly.
Try to cook any ROM (TMO 4.01.00 is good) at Stefan kitchen and you can cook it as .nbf or EXE then extract the .nbf file using winzip or winrar.
Follow the same steps and let me know.
Good luck ...
Is bootloader v6.222 okay - will it allow me to overwrite my current ROM with this new ROM that you are suggesting? I have read that I may have to downgrade my bootloader to do the SD ROM writing thing.
I can't confirm that my self ... I used SD with 5.17 and 6.22 without problems but maybe it's my luck
Cook the 4.01.00 as EXE and try it as is or extract the .nbf file and use the SD method.
Okay I'll give that a go now... Will let you know how I go...
Nope - didn't work. I'm not getting a screen in the bootloader to update the ROM via SD - if I press the action button I get into dignostics...
Is this a bootloader issue, and if so, how do I downgrade?
Also just tried the following:
C:\Program Files\XDAtools\binaries>pnewbootloader bootloader_v5_15.nb0
And got the following error message:
Unable to find flash info offset, cannot disable bootloader writeprotect
Any ideas?
I don't get it ... you cooked and downloaded and tried a new nbf file for TMO 4.01.00 in less than 15 minutes ??!!!!
what is the nbf file size ??
Yes, I used Winzip to extract NK.nbf. It is 31,745kb.
I am now cooking on Lumpi's site a zipped NK.nbf file and will try that too...

Ther must be a way for UNBRICKING

Hi, I searched a lot on forum and found a way for flashing from sdcard in Hermes forum.
There for i took a RUU_signed.nbh file copied to the fromated SDcard
- renamed it to HERAIMG.nbh (similar to HERMIMG.nbh on hermes forum)
--> and put the phone in bootloader
--> it starts searching sdcard
AND THEN
--> a processbar appears and it says "Checking SD contents"
BUT
--> "Invalid Certificate" - press any key.
So there must be a way to flash from SD card.
I will try different RUU and tell more.
Someone wanne help?
It must be named
"HERAIMG.nbh"
then it stops on white screen saying: Checking SD contents
But i got
Invalid Certificate
AND when it is an official .nbh extracted from RUU_xxxxx
it stops for 5sec on
"Checking SD content"
but the processbar doesn´t change and then it goes to bootloader without changing anything.
????????????????????????????
I will test this method too, i saw some flash of SD hen going into bootloader mode, did'nt know there was an option like this i will post my experiences
I tried these two RUU nbh's:
- RUU_Herald_HTC_WWE_5.4.405.1_4.1.13.34_02.79.90_Ship
- RUU_Herald_HTC_WWE_1.8.405.1_02.71.90_Ship
I've firtstly formatted my SD card, then copied NBH file's to my SD and named them HERAIMG.nbh.
Both times there was only a statusbar that did not proceed loading, and my continues in bootloader after 3 seconds...
Also got the Invalid Certificate error when I copied the WM6 nb of ASerg and renamed it to HEARIMG.nbh.. what is this certificate? and can it be edited in a way so we can flash??
Talking about unbricking anyway, can Herald users use Platform Builder?? i read in a thread that you're phone has to have KITL, but i don't think the Herald has KITL.. Can anyone who knows for sure please tell?

The .nbh are "signed" os files. you can generate these fiels by "nbhgen.exe" but i didn´t get it to work with an RUU - it allways says "image is corrupted" because it only contains OS.nb
when you extract an RUU_signed.nbh out of the RUU_xxx.exe it contaisn splash.nb, os.nb, extrom.nb, spl.nb etc.
That´s the certificate = the singend nbh
So that won't be an option I guess... too bad
but does the Herald have KITL in bootloader mode? if so, you could use Platform Builder to unbrick your phone.. that would be very very sweet.
And what is this mtty thing? should be some funky stuff to

MTTY never worked for me - but that could be my system. And KITL - i don´t know what this is. sorry.
I sent it to O2 and hope they will repair some minor bugs and also the booting problem.

Hmm i'll have a look around to find out what this mtty thing does..
btw: KITL = Kernel Independent Transport Layer, it is the windows ce kernel debugger interface
Is there anyone continueing papamopps' solution to unbrick Herald?
^^no need anymore, you can just use an official WM6 RUU

That´s not right. For unbricking a XDA Terra we still need a soulution.
The Terra IS NOT the P4350!!!!!
And the RUU updates are for P4350 (and in some cases for VPA compact)
But not for terra - we have to wait for an O2 update....
Vendor Id
I have a Vodafone CID(?) locked bricked HTC P4350.
Using the HTC updates I cannot unbrick my phone, because it keeps saying "Invalid Vender Id".
This unbricking with flashcard could be a solution for me.
I already try with official rom, but my herald is still brick, i can not syncronize the herald with pc to run the official rom.
It is freeze in inicial boot with HTC logo.
help, please anyone....
You can't simply place the rom file to the card and hope the device will read it in this way. In my time working for pda service, we used WINHex to format the card (to RAW-unformatted) and then we wrote the rom file in RAW format to the card. Your card looks like an endless stream of hexazecimal values. Only winhex recognises this format, if you insert the card to the computer, it will simply ask you to format it. After inserting this card into the pda, it will start the upgrade . The order of this operation was, as I remember, to fill the card with 0000 values (there is an option in WINHex, a kind of format) then write the rom file to the card in RAW mode. Then insert the card to the device.
Another way was to use MTTY, connect the pda to the computer (PDA should be in bootloader), open MTTY and connect with the device. ActiveSync should be killed before this. In MTTY in the terminal window write "set 14 0" then remove the data cable, then close MTTY, reconnect data cable then run the RUU.
These methods worked on HP Ipaq's wich we were repairing in our service center some time ago. I don't know if it works for herald or htc products because their RUU has a different way to register with the device.

Where to start?

I have an HTC Innovation, Qtek 9100...also wizard i think, Os: 1.1.7.8
GSM 1.4.10, SPL 1.01, Ipl 1.01, The language is in french.
I want at least to change the language to english, but i want it also a little updated.
I don't know what g3, g4 means and how to find out what version i have.
Please tell me where to begin to upgrade the phone, here are to many post and are some terms i don't understand like g3, g4, ipl, spl.
I don't think the phone is locked.
I also have vista
Thankyou and please guide me a little.
Start Here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Wizard
You have a G3 device
Here is a link to flash an english rom to your device
ftp://xda:[email protected]_9100_RUU_Prodigy_10107105_Qtek_WWE_ship.exe
it is not an upgrade basically the same as you have now but in english
here is a link to all the files you need to unlock the wizard both sim unlock(any sim card can be used) and cid unlock( You can install any rom)
http://rapidshare.com/files/53377946/Wizard__CID___Sim_Unlocker.rar
password for rar file is scousemartin
Once you have all this installed, you can flash any wm5/6 rom available for the wizard
thankyou, u've cleared things up for me ...
just how u know that is ia g3 or g4, g i think g stands for generation right??.....
found the info from the links...thanks again..
lanst question, after u what is the best wm5/6 to install onto the wizard? what rom posted here? i see here some tnt rom, are they good?
I use tnt 1933 from here and have no problems with it ,i would use radio 2.19 as well,as people have issues with missed calls etc, a link for that is there too
I know you have a g3 as your ipl and spl are 1.01 if it was a g4 it would be 1.01.xx
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341550
download links are located in post 3
you know what is not working? the link to the original wwe rom, from the ftp, looks like it is not there anymore!? can u verify that? or is my computer the problem?
yes i have just checked it isnt available anymore, in fact none of them are there anymore. download my wizard unlock pack and unlock the wizard with lokiwiz2b how to is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=249474
hope this is my last question!
What i have missed or what am i doing wrong?
so, i installed the rom from your unlock archive and it is ok, my wizard is in english now
i tried my simcard and it works so that results that my phone is not sim locked so i didn't use any of the sim unlock tools.
now i try to flash the tnt rom and gives me : error 295 and says something like imposible to use on your device and says to use some newer nfb file
...and what is the extended rom?
now i am reading: You MUST have an IPL and SPL at 2.xx or higher (BOTH not just one or the other).
so this means i can't install this rom if i have ipl spl 1.01?
reading a tutorial while updating this post!, so i red that i have to install a tmobile rom before i can install any rom? is this true?
Which rom did you install the button rom? or the o2 rom?
if it was the button rom did you follow these instructions
1 - Unzip lokiwiz.zip to a folder on your desktop
2 - Copy EnableRapi.cab to your Wizard
3 - Execute the EnableRapi.cab in your phone. Wait for it to finish
4 - Guarantee that your phone is connected via activesync with the computer
press the windows key + r and type cmd and press enter to get a dos window,that way when lokiwiz finishes you will still be able to read what it says
5 - Click on the black dos window that has opened and type cd desktop then type dir /ad and then a list of all the directorys on your desktop will be shown then change directory to the lokiwiz2b directory and Execute lokiwiz.bat (on your computer!)
Extended rom is what it says, a part of rom that is in an extended partition, basically it contains customisation programs and important files for installing into the wizard when it is hard reset.
when you say you tried your simcard ,was it the same provider e.g. o2 that you were using before? If it is the same that wont make a difference, try a sim from a provider that you dont have like t-mobile.
Anyway simunlock just allows you to use any sim, cid unlock allows you to load any ROM which is what you want to do.

'Start' batch file does nothing.
Tried opening it directly from a command prompt, but still nothing, except it opens another dos box.
Thoughts ?
The 'start' batch file fails because the first command is 'cd RUU'. but there is not a folder called RUU.
Then it tries to rename two files which also do not exist. Hence it never actually arrives at the exe file to unlock & install the ROM.
Can this work if you simply run the exe file without renaming & changing folders ?
Hi, and thanks for that script...
The .bat works well for me but while updating the rom, I've got an 270 error... 'The images files is corrupted please check your update utility'
does any one had the same issue on his phone? Do you think I just need to download it again? (concidering that the zip file uncompressed normaly, I assume it works well...)
Thanks for your answers...
upgrading MDA Touch
please i need your Help.
I have download the" touch essential V3.5 Manilla" on my PC. But i don´t know how to send it to my MDA.
Activsyc is working.
Where kann i fine the cert_CAB?
I have also unpacked the V3.5 manilla, but there is no way to run it in the MDA how should i do this.
many thanks
My 2 cents...
If I were you I wouldn't rely on a torrent posted by a junior member (age 12) and rather download the ROM posted by Football on Rapidshare => See his post HERE <=.
I've been using it from day 1 without any problem...

I understand were you are coming from but I have been very carefull on what i look for and actually this torrent file was uploaded by someone on xda developers so i am saying the update worked fine for me so why shouldnt it for you so before you start criticising a me for posting something that is just to assure htc touch owners that there is a reliable WM6.1 upgrade is there anything wrong with this......... NO!!! so before you criticise think twice !!!bell end!!!

i tried flashing the SD Card but it then says "Invalid Certificate"
i'm a total loss and totally stuck..
any help appricated
Have you really read this sticky thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406721 before flashing ?
Have you used "search" function with f.e. "stuck in bootloader" before posting ?
If not, please do and you'll find very useful solutions
i have read the theads over and over again and finally worked out mtty and worked out my phone is

any help is greatrully recived
also i have tried CID unlocking it so i can put custom roms on it but my computer wont active sync when the phone is connected through the USB port...
Also, what did you do to get your phone stuck in bootloader in the first place?
my brother did it to my phone before i'd even had chance to use it , and i don't know what he did.....sorry x
Try this and follow the instructions exactly http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=347700 and report pls
i tried this yesterday at first when i pressed enter i didnt get >cmd (which is what happening now)
then when i do get it eventually after many tries it sasys
cmd55 or something failed
and stays on 0% on a gray screen
sorry if i sound stupiud.
Ok
First you connect your device, then right click on active sync icon on your computer, chose connection settings and change according to the instructions then continue with mtty.exe
i have done this
when i press enter i dont get anything come up....
yesterday i managed to get it up though and just stayed gray screen at 0%
Try again a few times making sure you didn't overlook any detail.
I just found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3395787&postcount=155 possibly mtty version doesn't work
2- Another possibility is unbricker rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446242
3- gold card method (the links are dead so you should pm Dsixda)
Flash from the SD card:
ELF0IMG.nbh on a FAT32 filesystem, complete flash takes about 30 minutes, so check your battery or connect to charger before the flashing process starts.
1. Format microSD card from your computer.
2. Extract the .NBH file from your prefered ROM upgrade: In windows use winrar (right click) to extract the contents of the exe file. In Linux / MacOS use cabextract.
3. Rename the .NBH file to ELF0IMG.nbh and copy it to the root folder of your microSD card.
4. With microSD card inserted in the phone, start the bootloader (the bootloader is invoked by hold down the camera button and reset device with the stylus).
5. Confirm flashing on screen by pressing the power button (or the volume slider down).
6. Flashing might hang after some time but this is normal. Just wait.
Will try now and keep u updated
manny thanks x
Follow the instructions until you get cmd only, then return to the tutorial to continue
Good luck
Just an update
i downloaded the nbh file you sugested and tried both
1) flashing from the SD card by renaming file - when i do this is says checking sd contents then goes back to my bootlooder screen
2) running the romupdateutility.exe with the nbh file in the same folder it goes through then i get error 294 incorrect vender
i am unable to pm Dsixda about the gold card
i have no idea what else to try
ps: when running mtty i still get a gray screen then the bootloader screen.
Sorry to hear this, I'm out of ideas. Just some details not to miss:
try a hard reset
writing "ELF0IMG.nbh" (elf zero img and not elf o img)
google for mtty and download a few versions
Wait for an answer from Dsixda for gold card if you can't find your original rom

If you have access to a working pda or a working GPS device - PNA which is powered by WM (even modified) then you have to follow these steps:
Download this package and save it in your C:\ drive.
Run it.
(it will extract all the necessary files in C:\itsutilsbin (folder) and it will start the setup of Perl)
When the Perl - installation is finished run Perl Package Manager from Windows Start Menu.
Add repositories.
Name: itsme
Location: http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/perl/ppm
Name: theoryx
Location: http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/package.xml
(HowTo: run Preferences from the Perl Package Manager menu and switch to the repository tab)
After database synchronization install these packages:
Crypt-DES
XdaDevelopers-NbfUtils
(HowTo: at the main window of Perl Package manager find those packages, mark them for install (the icon with green plus, next to the search bar) and run marked action(green arrow icon))
Format the sd card(FAT32) and insert it in a working pda.
Connect the working pda to the pc , wait to sync and run psdread.bat from C:\itsutilsbin.
Find an official rom from here with a ModelID which matches your device's one
Example: If your pda is an Elfin and you have ModelID ELF030000 then get the below rom from that thread.
RUU_Elfin_TMO_NL_2.26.114.52_4.1.13.52_03.08.90_BL UE_Ship.exe (T-MOBILE)
Device: ELF030000
CID: T-MOB003
Version: 2.26.114.3
Language: NLD

Extract the RUU_Signed.nbh, rename it to ELF0IMG.nbh and copy it to the sd card.
Fully charge your battery, insert the sd card to your pda, enter bootloader and flash from memory card
(Confirm flashing on screen by pressing the power button (or the volume down button)).
If everything went ok then you can use a HardSPL or a USPL to CID Unlock your phone and update the rom with one of your choice.
If you don't have a working pda use a card reader - Ubuntu (even from a LiveCD) and QMAT are required
Regards!

There is a way to use a card reader instead.
Using Ubuntu LiveCD and QMAT
ps:I wonder how did the wiki entry got erased?
Dsixda and all the members who worked on this had done a great job and it's really annoying that all their work was lost.
