Vodafone Rom - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Hi
Is there a UK vodafone ROM for the BA. My provider is vodafone and it would nice to have the correct settingd for my BA, instead of usinf the T-Mobile rom.
Thanks
Lordao

Someone (not me) dumped the ROM here: ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Blueangel/Vodafone_VPx_1.22.nb1
Read the wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel for details of how to use this file.
Hope this helps!

hi
Thanks for that, but i don't seem to have permissions to get into that directory.
Regards
Lordao

hi
i got the rom, the extension is different to what i expected, do i have to use a different loader for this, as changing the extension from nb1 to nbf did not work.
Thanks
Lordao

Look at this first..
Hi Lordeo..
Do youself a favour.. Look at this..
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_GettingStarted
After, have a quick look at this..
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Versions
As you can see, there's no direct UK Vodafone ROM available however, you can look at upgrading your Rom to the highest here..
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.42.00_Upgrade
Then applying the UK Vodafone MMS, GPRS and SMS settings from a post I authored a while ago by clicking here..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32437
Ok, the downside here is that you'll have what is essentally a T-Mobile branded phone..
Lastly, there's always the option of upgrading to WM5.. See here..
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM5_Home
If you do decide to go ahead with this, please read part of a post I authored a couple of days ago.. It states..
General Tips to you (and others)..
If you do want to update or upgrade then make sure you read everything through first.. Make sure you're happy in doing it.. Perhaps use the search function to read through others comments.. I would also recommend reading others comments about trying to downgrade from WM5 to WM2003SE to see what others have encountered
You will not believe the amount of people who end up posting questions when they've not followed the instructions from Wiki that I've pasted for you here..
Finally, if you are stuck, use the search command and describe your problem in the Keywords section, select Blue Angel from the Category and read through the posts relating to it before posting questions..
I think that's everything..?
Goodnight!

Restoring ROM dump
Take a look at this thread: http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=151&PN=1 at the end of the first posting there is a brief section entitled How to Restore. Copy the .nb1 file onto an SD card and follow the instructions in the post to restore. Good luck!

thanks for all the info.
for some reason the rom backup file would not automatically install from the SD. oh well. i went to wm5 very nice but i can not get my gps to pair correctly with bluetooth, back to the t-mobile rom at least tom tom works with 2003 correctly

MDA PRO ROM upgrade

Hi all
My first post as a new MDA PRO owner HTC universal if I am not mistaken.
My question is that I am with Vodafone UK and am tying to flash my device with their latest ROM downloaded from their site.
I keep on getting the following message from the setup program i.e. "ERROR 120 COUNTRY CODE ERROR" 38-38-44-44-44.
What am I doing wrong as I thought these machines were all the same! Or is it just an attempt by Vodafone to stop me from putting their ROM on a Tmobile phone. If it is is there a work around?
Thanks in advance
Brian.
There are 2 ways to get it working.
1. Use MaUpgradeNoID Utility
2. Change some parameters with BAL666's HTC64 Tool
If you search the forum you should normally be able to find a manual for this.
If not, do not hesitate to use the Wiki:
wiki.xda-developers.com
section Universal
Thanks for that much appreciated
As I am new to this I think must be missing something as I have tried using MAUpgradeUT_NoID with no luck. I have also seen on the threads here about MAUpgradeUT_NoID_886 but cant find a download link for it.
If someone could give me a real idiots guide would be most grateful.
All done managed to get my thick head around it.
Just like to say what a great site this is and reminds me of early Psion days.
check buzzdev.net register there and go to the download page.
If you know something about computers, then try to reset the parameters. this was working for me! the NoID.exe doesn't look for these parameters, but that doesn't worked out for me.

OK, I'm lost.

Hey guys,
I swear I must be retarded or something.
Been looking to upgrade to WM6 for a while now, and decided to throw on Black V2.5.
But, I'm also seeing further things such as radio, bootloader, HardSPL etc.
Are these necessary?
If someone can basically add me on MSN and talk me through it, if it's not too tricky, that'd be awesome...
If not, then I'm guessing, I can hook the phone to my PC, flash Black on to it, then copy over the .cab files and run them from the device?
S**t the bed...

Firstly, welcome to the Forum
1-Sync your mobile with your PC
2-(Assuming the Cab File is on your PC). Drag this file to a folder on your mobile, eg /Program Files.
3-Using File Explorer, from your mobile, locate this file and run it on your mobile. This will auto install the file.
Secondly, you must Read the WIKI before you decide to install any ROM. This will eliminate the need to ask questions that have already been covered on the subject. MR VANX has written an excellent guide on upgrading your ROM, see last post above your request, and the guide is regularly updated. (thanks for all your good work MR VANX).
I am also fairly new to upgrading and extensively read the guide and followed all instructions. I have now successfully uploaded many ROM's. (Many thanks to all the CHEFS for their dedication and commitment, please keep the ROM's coming).
Good Luck.

Thanks i will spend some time reading more the WIKI , i got the cabs loaded just ran out of room for them all
Hi, welcome to the forum.
Appreciate you ran out of room for all of your cabs, this forum does contain a lot of very useful things,(Thanks Chefs), & if you think you are going to need some again & again, put the most useful cabs on your storage card & then install them to your device. (just in case you keep flashing, as it becomes addictive)
Sorry, already answered

Authenticity of “Official” WM6 ROM & Step by Step Guide

Can anyone provide these answers before I ever risk installing this:
What are the origins of this "Official" ROM to make it be classed as an "Official" HTC ROM as there is nothing mentioned on HTC support website?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Also, as a suggestion could the ROM list page (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...inity_Upgrades) be updated to reflect the flurry of recent releases of ROMs in the forum over the last few weeks inc. this one?
2) Which of these is the correct one to use on for upgrading from Orange SPV M700 Wm5 as after reading the threads I have: TRIN_WM6.rar, TRIN_WM6_FLASHER.rar, Official_WM6.rar.
3) If there are patches / upgrades required for this e.g. HTC_VideoCallPatch_vX.cab, Microsoft_Office_Mobile_6.1.cab could I suggest they be all be culminated on a special page for this ROM if this is to be the baseline ROM for future developments / tweaks as these files are scattered all over the forum at present.
4) Any chance an experienced flasher could create a "Step by Step Guide" from an Orange SPV M700 Wm5 locked to an WM6 Official install (inc. Orange Settings / Customisations etc.) unlocked that includes creating a ROM backup of your own phone prior to installing, so you can switch back? - I have read the posts / threads and have yet to find a definitive page on all this.
Just a thought..... as it would help novices and cut down posts to relevant questions and not the same old inquiries.
Cheers
Hawk
Yeah we noob need some steb by steb guide(for vista though)
it was stated in the first mention of this rom that the poster wouldn't be answering questions about it.. so there's not much people can tell you about where it came from, etc.
the cabs may or may not be accumulated because there's nothing to suggest that this ROM will be the basis of future developments. The build is older than current WM6 ROMs on this forum.. better read a bit more to get the big picture.
can't tell you which one is the right .rar file to flash, but you won't find a step by step guide. Essentially, go get hard-spl and run the RUU to install it on your phone. Then manually enter the bootloader and while connected via USB run the RUU for the ROM you want to flash.
I don't use vista, so can't say much about the connection problems but there are MANY MANY posts about it, so i suggest you get searching.
happy flashing

upgrade hermes 8525

hi all does anyone know how to obtain an upgrade for hermes 8525 from windows 5 to windows 6and how it should be done? or if its advisable to do so....thanks in advance..
There are numerous options. But first you need to put HardSPL on your device. The only method that worked with my AT&T 8525 was the SD card method.
art here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=419158
There is a lot of information in the wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
You can snag the update to the stock wm6 at&t here: http://www.4shared.com/file/96949781/3873b8fd/RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_362502.html
There is also a HTC version floating around too. Got it uploaded. http://www.4shared.com/file/174831069/1dd19a3/HTC_TyTN_WWE_3542553_6275_1480.html
I would also suggest making sure your phone has hardslpv7 loaded http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Then you will be set for flashing! There are tons of custom roms around here as well.
thanks

Infrared Should work on your device as is. You may just need to enable receiving of files.
I'm sure all of your answers are buried somewhere here on the site. There is tons of information here. There is a search feature at the top brown bar that will search the entire site using google. It will help you find all sorts of stuff
