You have to flash via SD-Card.......

Please, if someone has MDA PRO with original ROM can use this indications to completely backup it (and upload it to
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Universal/
please!!!)
What you need:
MDA Pro ;-)
USB cable
PC
1 sd card or mmc card (at least 128MB)
MTTY.EXE (you can find it in internet but the version can use usb connection and not only COM connection)
NTRW.EXE (you can find it in internet.this file must to be copied on your pc on C:\ not in other folders)
If you have ActiveSync installed on your PC on ActiveSync connection settings uncheck USB connection
Before connecting your MDA you should bring it into the boot loader mode. This can be done by simultaneously pressing power + camera buttons and at the same time the soft reset button with the stylus.
The password to enter bootloader is UNIVERSAL
insert a BLANK sd-card
Link the usb cable
Run MTTY.EXE and select USB connection
After that a terminal window will popup in that window.
Type (if you want to backup operating system):
d2s 70100000 04000000
or type (if you want to backup extended rom):
d2s 74100000 00a00000
and press enter. Your MDA will start copying the ROM to the sd card. The screen of your MDA will be dark (no light), but you will see it counting up to 100%. When it reaches 100% it will say it is calculating the checksum. Give it some time till its done and it will say checksum ok.
Please note that there are others command to type due to what you want to obtain.They are:
d2s 60000000 00800000 8M radio rom
d2s 70000000 00100000 1M SPL
d2s 70100000 04000000 64.00 M OS TrueFFS
d2s 74100000 00a00000 10.00 M extrom DSK2ART00 fatfsd
d2s 74b00000 02c40000 44.25 M root filesystem TRUEFFS
After finishing the transfer of the German ROM from your MDA to the SD card, put your SD card into an SD card reader connected to your pc. Your pc might pop up a warning message that says your SD Card is not formatted would you like to format? Click No and open a Command prompt (DOS) window.
Change directory to your root directory (cd c:\) and run the command ntrw read German.nb1 x: where x is the drive letter of your sd card. That command will create the ROM Backup file of your German ROM into your C drive root directory by the name of German.nb1. Make sure you keep German.nb1 in a safe place and use a copy of that file for the rest of the procedure. Note that after finishing the copy from your SD card to German.nb1 file ntrw might give you an error, just don’t pay attention to it.

Error message
I have an MDA PRO on Netherlands origional ROM. I am not able to use MTTY.exe to back up my ROM. I follow your procedure with the following exceptions:
1. "Before connecting your MDA you should bring it into the boot loader mode. This can be done by simultaneously pressing power + camera buttons and at the same time the soft reset button with the stylus."
NOTE: Bootloader mode is the dark screen that says "Serial" (unplugged) or "USB" (plugged). I can only access this by using POWER + LIGHT + SOFT RESET.
2. "Run MTTY.EXE and select USB connection. After that a terminal window will popup in that window."
NOTE: Is it necessary after this step to run the command "password UNIVERSAL"?
3. "Type d2s 70100000 04000000"
NOTE: I, as with others, recieve the following error:
USB>d2s
Not allow operation!
USB>d2s 70100000 04000000
Not allow operation!
This final error is where I am stuck. Thanks in advance to anyone who can advise!
I have exactly the same issue as nedbsd.........
Using original Dutch T-Mobile rom:
version: 1.12.42
date: 08/23/05
radio: 1.00.02
protocol: 42.33.P8
ext. rom: 1.12.125 WWE
Hmm... this isn't working for me either. It looks like the MDA Pro is taking the password but not staying in the right mode.
The transcript from MTTY looks like this:
USB>password UNIVERSAL
HTCSPass.< YHTCEUSB>d2s 70100000 04000000
Not allow operation!
USB>
Which is a bit of a mess. It does seem that this is the right password, however, as if I type in a different password I get an error message:
USB>password BADPASS
HTCSInvalid password.R¿ËPHTCEUSB>
This is from a standard English MDA PRO. Any ideas?
MDA Pro Rom backup
So, no fresh ideas :?:
same problems as above:
first stage - password UNIVERSAL
HTCSPass.< YHTCEUSB>
looks like OK
then 2ds
Invalid command : 2ds
or by Topogigi advice
h full
Invalid command : h
MDA Pro Rom backup
really Invalid command-
password UNIVERSAL
HTCSPass.< YHTCEUSB>d2s 70100000 04000000
Not allow operation!
USB>
etc.
This sounds very strange to me. From the beginning of the pocketpc era the bootloader was provided with a comprehensive help feature that you could recall with the command "h full"....

Click to collapse
Well, you are not the only one that finds it strange, there is about a dozen threads allready about people trying to figure out how to make a rom-image from the universal. No succes so far!
The commands published here on the wiki page just don't work.....
Yup, I've already read all the threads forum-wide concerning the efforts people made to get a rom dump, but noone suggested to try with "h". So, I was curious to see what would happen, that's all! :wink:
BTW, you can notice yourself that there is something very strange in the result you reported in the other thread:
password UNIVERSAL
HTCSPass.< YHTCEUSB>h full
Invalid command : h
For a help screen, use command ? or h
USB>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
:shock:
That drives me to think that our problems are password related. Perhaps "UNIVERSAL" is a valid password, but with all the commands disabled... :?:
Any success ?
password UNIVERSAL
HTCSPass.< YHTCEUSB>d2s 70100000 04000000
Not allow operation!
