You have to use the SD card upgrade method

You have to unpack the files of the upgrade, and then run adaptROM before running 'Programme A'. Or indeed use the SD card method, whichever is easiest for you. Both can be done most conveniently if you install our XDAtools.

I have recently asked a couple of questions on how to upgrade my ROM on my current O2 XDA. (I was trying to unlock it but could not use the unlock pgm because the ROM version was not current)
I have had a few excellent responses. But not being to computer literate, particularly on upgrading my ROM. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Does anyone know where to obtain a step by step guide to updating the ROM. Also I had asked about safeguarding my existing ROM until the upgrade was successful. Can someone help by answering the following?
I have downloaded the relevant versions of ROM to apply
1) How do I back up my current ROM so that I can re-apply in the event of a problem, i.e. is it possible to back it up to SD and also on my desktop?
2) Is it possible to copy the new ROM you wish to apply to SD/MMC card and then apply it?
3) What is the differences between radio versions I here so much spoke about it and don’t understand this?
Any responses would be very appreciated, hopefully I’ll get my answer in the one go or I can open the relevant thread. Thanks in advance and a merry xmas to you all.
Ok first thing you want to do is to read these three pages:
http://www.xda-developers.com/rom/
http://www.xda-developers.com/XDArit/
http://www.xda-developers.com/bootloader/
They should give you a reasonable understanding of whats involved to update your ROM.
1) The bootloader page covers backing up your current ROM
2) Yes you can copy it to SD/MMC (this is safer than using cradle anyway..) this is covered on XDArit page
3) Unless you are experiencing problems with your current radio stack most people will advise against upgrading it.. to upgrade your OS you only need the CE Rom. These can be made at Yorch's kitchen: http://kitchen.romanweb.com/kitchen/index.php then use XDArit/Osimage to copy it to your SD card.

I don´t know. Sorry
Hey,
I've got an originally unlocked/unbranded O2 XDA II. For reasons I wont bother going into, it now has a beta T Mobile MDA II ROM on it. I want to fix it and put the most stable and reliable O2 XDA II ROM on it (which hopefully would make the warranty valid again!). And I need to figure out:
1. What ROM should I put on it? It would be best if it was an official or supported ROM.
2. What software do I use to load the ROM?
You can find the latest O2 ROMS here and I suggest you follow the procedure I describe here.
Wow! Thats information you posted yourself. Thanks so much, I'll try it out soon.
Hi dcs,
I've tried your procedure to modify and update with a O2 ROM 1.72.187.
After preparing all the files and running HimaUpgradeUt.exe I get the first screen and then the message CE image file checksum error.
Can you help telling me where I went wrong?
Thanks a lot.

A couple of things. Did any errors occur during the modification part? and Did you remember to perform the updating of the crc in the nba files in step 11?
I repeated the whole process again and I'm now upgrading....
Hope it works....keeping my fingers crossed.
Thanks for your help
Good Please let us know. Did you do anything different or just re-run the upgrade program?
PLs if someone can direct me to where can I dw this tool would be appreciated.

I know about the maupgradeut_noId, but thats not what i'm looking for. The tool that i'm looking for is for reflashing the Universal (not for upgrading ROM).

I'm not really clear what you're trying to do. You reflash the ROM when you write a copy of the bootloader, OS, ExtROM or Radio to it, and MaUpgradeUt_NoID is what does the job. There's other software for doing stuff like writing a new splash screen to the ROM.
If you could be a bit more specific about what you're trying to achieve somebody here will point you in the right direction!

When i'm trying to upgrade ROM with Maupgrade it gives me an error about connection, even if the Universal is in bootloader and it's seen by the windows. I've tried with ROMupgradeut but I still receive that error. I've upgrade lately the bootloader to v1.01 from v1.0 and from q-tek rom to ivan beta14. Yesterday i've tried to upgrade to ivan's beta15 but i can't do it. Somebody told me that there is a utility that can reflash the Universal in order to upgrade the ROM of Universal.
Thanks all you guys for trying to help, but as i discovered right now the problem is generated by the windows VISTA, something it's not compatible with it, not the active sync, but the Maupgrade or other software that allows the upgrade.

Which ROM do you have installed? Do you have the WWE 1.33 Brightpoint WM6 ROM or Kavana's or Rickwyatt's WM 6.1 cooked ROM? Or are you running the stock rom that already came loaded with your phone?
Reason why i ask is that if you are not using one of the 3 aforementioned ROMS then the highest capacity your phone will handle is 2gb... and that's because the stock ROMS that are installed by your mobile provider don't enable SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) to work on theirs . If you do have a stock ROM installed, in order to make the 8gb work, you will need to install one of the 3 aforementioned ROMS, which all 3 can be found on this forum.
If you do have one of the 3 ROMS installed, then you may have a bad SD card.
just format it into 2 4gb partitions ?
8GB

you have to application unlock your phone b-4 you can install that brightpoint ROM. you also have to have your SD card removed from your phone b-4 you install it. do a searsh for SDA application unlock on this forum.... there are several threads that have it.
Also I think there are supposedly some cab files you can install that might enable the SDHC cards to work, but I haven't tried it myself since I am already running WM6.1. There is a thread in this forum where you can get those files.
Hey guy, check the STICKY that Gixxum posted. It goes through STEP BY STEP in detail what files you need, when to run them, etc. to reflash your rom.

I had SDHC support working when I was using the WM6.0 HTC ROM, it saw my 4GB card just fine. There are only a couple of 6.0 ROMs that will do this.
So...
Okay, what is the verdict? Will Kavanna's 6.1 rom read an 8gb sdhc card or not? has anyone tried it with this rom? I have heard it will read 4 but would like to purchase 8 and am just making sure it works.
yes 6.1 will read I have one right now working great. Cant wait till I add my music and programs and more.
I just got a TMOBILE DASH 3-G. It has 6.1. I need get a card for storage. Will a Micro SDHC work on it out of the box or will I need to try to find a Micro SD?
You don't need to but new card
