Gday, me BA is dead, failed to upgrade.. - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

I did not get the upgrade out of the PDA first, it is in bootloader mode.
By mistake, I picked up a XDA II upgrade instead of PDA III and clicked the sucker, only to get bummed completely. I guess it "deleted" the orig OS, or parts of it.
The BA is from o2, but private buy, no support expected from them.
The BA was in German, there is no "ID" for o2 given in the ID table.
I even tried T-kom's blackberry upgrade (German) gives same error as the 3 WWE SHIPS I tried, 120 "Country ID error"
Anyway to get the needed ROM info with the bootloader only ?
I would not mind the BA_5.1.1700_build_14343_Upgrade Engrish...
Somebody please help bring my new thang into life again

Hi Man,
Do not worry...Just upgrade the ext rom part of any ROM u have and it will be live again...then u can re-upgrade it completely

One problem I recognize I have: how to get DevData...
Thanks for the assuring words. But I have no idea what you mean with :"upgrade the ext rom part of any ROM u have and it will be live again."
I Assume the ext rom is a nbf file ?
I tried several of the ROM linked from this site (without modifiying them) no succes.
The nice guide made, explains how to get devdata on the PDA when working, but how to get that when bootloader mode is only option ? Or is that necessary? Are there ROM's that works anyway ??
The guide says:
"Device data reads:
PH20B 0 B GER R T-MOB101 1.12.00 0 0 1.12.100 1.02.00 02.00"
I do not have any of this info on my PDA Can it be retreived from the PC ?? (with a program)
I might also explain why I wanted to upgrade the ROM and didnt realize how "complicated" it can be. When trying to install a new appl. (Copilot) with a SD-card, the BA gave:
"setup-Fehler
Die datei "\storagecard\\2577\tts.cab ist keine gultige datei fur windows CE setup"
So, I thought the ROM version was ****ty not even knowing CAB files!
Any hints & help much appreciated
Rgds

Okeh..
Learned alot during the day on this site, it RAWKS!
I found the BA_TMUK_14200_112_11300_Ship (ENG)
& the MDAIII_TMDE_14201_116_11300_Ship (GER)
Using the "MaUpgradeUt_noID" I managed to get the GER running
Dropped the RADIO ROM of the GER to the ENG version and tried runnin the MaUpgradeUt_noID from that ROM. It worked!
The "standard" windows theme is NOT in the ENG pack, but in the GER one.
I then try run these Copilot cab files, still no luck ?!?
Tried some other CAB files snagged from the FTP, they worked...
I both tried the SD card install (autorun the cab) and from the install CD (to PC & device) both gives same error ? A little suspicious that none of the 2 install options work. Perhaps copilot is NOT compatible...

country code error 120 : 1-3-1-1-1 just my experiences

today i tried to switch my xda2 from t-mobile's 1.72.170GER final rom back to o2's 1.72.184GER final which has been provided recently. i run into that damn country code error 120 because my xda2 has got a t-mobile device id. please find my steps for solving that problem:
1. unpacked the 1.72.184GER package into a folder and replaced the original HimaupgradeUt.exe by the hacked one (which is supposed to ignore country codes).
-> result: same problem - country code error 120 : 1-3-1-1-1
2. then i deleted the HimaGetDeviceData.exe in the folder containing the rom-files. and i deleted any existing DeviceData.txt in the windows folder of my xda2. time to start again the hacked HimaupgradeUt.exe.
-> result: first screen with no errors. it tells me that my device is going to get an update, from rom 1.72.01, radio 1.17.00, extrom 1.72.170 to rom 1.72.01, radio 1.17.00, extrom 1.72.184. i am happy so far but the next screen is again that damn county code error 120 message :-( meanwhile my device is stuck in bootloader 1.06 mode.
3. at this time i deleted the HimaClearJumpCode.exe (which is no longer needed for setting the xda2 in bootloader mode, it is already there) and started again the hacked HimaUpgradeUt.exe (the third time).
-> result: first screen with no errors. it tells me that my device is going to get an update, from rom "blank", radio "blank", extrom "blank" to rom 1.72.01, radio 1.17.00, extrom 1.72.184. next screen tells me that the devices rom is getting erased now and the progress bar shows the current status. everything went through the update process fine.
and my device has been successfully transformed from a t-mobile mda2 which looks like an xda2 to a real o2 xda2 with current xda2-software
summary: i guess you can shorten the whole procedure by setting the xda2 into bootloader mode connecting to your pc by usb unpack only the three rom file images into a folder, copy the hacked HimaUpgradeUt.exe into that folder and start it. but i have no time and motivation for doing that since my device works now.

Cannot Downgrade to 2003SE - SX66
I own a SX66 Cingulair (USA) and I recently upgraded the ROM to WM5 but now having a lot of problems with it. I need to downgrade it back to 2003. I followed all the instructions in the link given in one of the posts above but the program MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe does not recognize my existing ROM or the new one and no update happens.
Can anyone help me please.

exactly the same here with SX66, but where did you get your ROM?
I also tried to apply SX66Upgrade.exe program which seems like WM2003SE installer, but this program says it cannot connect to device. I also was able to get nk.nbf from the temp folder and tried to run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe with this one, but it goes to the final screen without actually reflashing PDA. PDA still has WM5 installed.
I made a backup copy of my previous Win2003SE ROM to a SD card and restored it now from file back to SD card, but cannot find the way how to initiate ROM restore from SD card. I've read instructions saying: Insert SD card, put PDA into bootloader mode, select to restore from SD card, but in my case I just see "Serial 2.07" after going into bootloader mode and nothing else.
Found a way to Downgrade
Hi all:
After so much testing in frustration I moved the new ROM file to PH20B folder in the WM5_pack_V3 folder and ran the program BaUpgradeUt.exe. Now I know for SX66 which is a PH20B1 device we are supposed to use MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe in PH20B1 folder according the the downgrade link (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Downgrade_WM5)
I got the ROM from (http://sx66-blueangel.home.comcast.net/) which is version 1.40 and I am very happy with it. Before upgrading to WM5 I have unlocked this device using the unlocker program some where on this forum and I am not sure whether it has anything to do with MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe not working.

How To: Update to WM6 with NO memory errors

Thanks to the entire community for their valuable input and Bepe for his lovely clean rom.
Right, lets begin, heres how to get WM6 on your device with NO "Not enough memory" errors in word, tomtom or anything.
IMPORTANT! You MUST use the files I provide below and you MUST start from a ROM with an Extended Rom. If you have no extended rom then you will get the memory errors.
Start with a rom with an Ext Rom. Here is a link to the T-Mobile UK MDA Compact III rom here you go: http://rapidshare.com/files/17854890/art_tmouk_11311001_024990_wwe_ship.exe
Hard reset your device (Hold the 2 softkeys, press the reset hole and follow the screens)
Plug it into your PC. Wait on the config screen, dont proceed with the alignment, setup activesync as a Guest.
Unlock your CID using USPL found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
Download Bepes rom here: http://www.ramonshare.com/files/index.php?share=4&path=ROMS/HTC Artemis/WM6-By-Bepe/ARTE_WWE_WM6.rar
Download the update util here: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Artemis/arte.zip
Extract the util and Bepes rom to any folder
Rename OS.nb to windows.nb
Edit the line which says pdocwrite.exe windows.nb 0 0x3900000 and change it to pdocwrite.exe windows.nb 0 0x3500000
Run UpgradeRom.bat.
HardReset when done.
When it says its going to customize in 3 seconds PRESS THE RESET BUTTON.
Thats it, step by step, but in short for those who know what there doing.
Start with a ROM with and Ext Rom.
Unlock using USPL
Upgrade to Bepes rom using the UpgradeRom.bat file as the EXE seems to wipe the Ext Rom and cause errors.
Hah you got it. That was exactly how I updated my Artemis minus the USPL part which did not exist then, and I have no Out of memory errors.
Although if that's the solution, what actually was the problem? Something to do with EXT ROMS?
"Edit the line which says pdocwrite.exe windows.nb 0 0x3900000 and change it to pdocwrite.exe windows.nb 0 0x3500000"
where do you do this??
thanks for your hard word and determination. your a life saver!!

Open upgradeROM.bat with windows notepad, you'll see the line there.
Heeey great work dannyoneill!! You've cracked it and all in one day fantastic.
Hmmm...shall I go ahead with this now or wait and hope Tom implements this solution and keeps that dreaded ext rom in his new release :-S ??
Well it looks like the rom updates are the OS only and DONT wipe out the Ext Rom. But when you run it using the packaged, niced and easy to use EXE versions they wipe the ext rom.
Thank you, dannyoneill, thank you. This really seems to work.
That was just perfect, thx. I did that way several times and it works just fine.
Sorry guys for this noob question, I've never upgraded before but now I'm confident enough to give it a try.
From where do I run the UpgradeROM.bat: from the ActiveSync screen or from the bootloader screen?
Thanks in advance.
Connect your device. Perform a hard reset and just before the alignment page plug it into your PC and cancel the partnership question.
@all,
no luck upto now on my cid-unlocked hero, here. gives me "error:
IT write disk-An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine".
any ideas here?
greetz
Did you edit the BAT file and change the line to read whats in the instructions? If you didnt understnad that step and skipped it thats why.
The update would be sucessful and you just have to hard reset.
Dont forget, if you flash it back to any original rom, even if you previously unlocked it then it will be locked again.
thanx,
didnt think about the possibility it could be locked again! naturally, i needed to reflash an orig rom, as at first i was running a pdamobiz customized rom- update to wm6 didnt work here!
so, i am off to unlocking it again! rest was all considered, i.e. changing upgraderom.bat!
thanx
P.S.: I am up and running now. simply used my "old" imei-check unlocker again!
Is there any way to do this method with the black&blue rom?
the rom in the black&blue finishes with .nbh, and the bepe one finishes with .bn.
Please help...
P.S. I love that rom, I use it with omapclock to 264 and everything just shows up instantly.
GREAT JOB!!!!
I dont think so, the black and blue uses the RomUpgrade.exe method which seems to wipe the Ext Rom as part of the upgrade. The rom then only contains the OS partition not the Ext rom. As its based on Bepes the rom ISNT configured to work without an EXT rom it just doesnt work. Also word is broken and needs aditional registry entrys, Excel also has some issues.
My advice is to stick to Bepes rom, its clean for starters and just add on the bits you want. These can be found in the wizard forums so you get the bits you want. Im testing at the moment as most of the addons seem to slow things down.
I tried this topic's howto, but was unable to perform the first part of flashing the UK tmobile stock rom becouse it would error at 3% saying 244 unknown device id. I got a dutch mda compact iii and had b&bv2 installed with the mem problem. I wanted to have bebe's rom on my device becouse it's clean ... i like clean tought would be nice to have it running flawless .... guess what it does! Bit weird couse i failed the howto and many other things. Here is wat i did, what din't work and what did work. Maby there is some logic in it.
At the beginning:
[1] dutch t-mobile wm5 stock
[2] fixed drivers (running vista)
[3] flashed uspl
[4] flashed b&bv2
[5] used it for a while with errors and word problem
[6] wanted bebe's clean wwe and noticed this thread
[7] flashed uspl
[8] tried uk stock firm like 3 times (few resets between etc), failed all error 244
[9] continued using art tool with the address edit from this howto to flash bebe's, it did but my device wasn't able to boot past tmobile screen/boot
[10] reflashed b&bv2, boots again and with mem errors
[11] flashed b&bv2 with art tool with address edit
[12] install hang a bit, device booted no freaking idea if the flash actually worked, mem errors still there
[13] gave up the idea of having a error less os running
[14] fetched the "exe" install of bebe
[15] flashed uspl
[15] flashed exe version of bebe's
[16] error less wm6, working office, haven't found 1 problem.
So now i have bebe running without errors, tomtom installed my fav spd apps and played around with word, all fine. Very happy and rocking! But i wonder how ? since i suppose to have a screwed extrom....
You proberbly couldnt flash the original rom as you may have to unlock your device. Im planning on making a n00bs update package as I know it can be daunting sometimes.
Anyone know of a generic update with an ext rom that I can include in the package?
Works 100%. Superb! Thanks, matey.... now i just need to find a nice HTC touch black style skin...
check the Universal WM6 forums, they have the skin to download there. Not a big fan myself.

[ITA] Artemis Bigix 2.0

Another Rom for Artemis italian user.
This is a new way of install ROM and can be installed ONLY if you have a Micro SD with almost 30 Mb free space.
In Rar archivie there is the nbh file (the Rom) and a file called "Setup".
1. Copy file "Setup" in your SD
2. Flash the rom (remember you must have SPL unlocked).
Don't delete Setup from SD: it's impostant if you make Hard Reset.
Core wm: CE 5.2.1620 (Build 18124.0.4.2) from original HTC WM6 Professional Ita

Thanks mate, testing your great work, bye
P3300
My HTC3300 was dead, only can load into Three-color Mode with USB avaliable. I tried all kind of RUUs, including the Original ROMs(English, French, Deustch....)and the newest version , all report ERROR[300]invalid update tool. then the screen of phone stayed in 0% and RUU tool exit only...
IPL 1.27.0001
SPL 1.11.0000 (used the USPL to unlock CID before)
Before Bricked, I successfully updated many versions of ROM, and the last operation is WM6.1.
I'have try this with MTTY:
Cmd> set 32
Cmd> password BsaD5SeoA
Cmd> ruurun 0
Cmd> ResetDevice
But Doesn't work!
because of you!
My phone was perfect before and I have installed your BigiX.
What I have to do? Can U help me?
I can donete some money... pls... help me....
My dear friend,this is an old rom.
But this is not the reason of your problem.
I don't know if MTTY works on this device, but if your screen show 3 colors you are in bootloader mode (and your SPL is 1.11.0000 as you tell, so it is good for flash any rom).
So (in teory) you can connect PPC to PC via USB and run RUU for flashing the rom you want.
In alternative you can flash original rom.
For this operation i suggest Win XP+ AS 4.5 and try to change usb cable (a new one) and usb port (another on your PC)
I hope you can resolve.
No need donate money
Thx, but are 3 days that I'm looking for solution... Lot of people have the same problem. When run RUU flashing after 3 colors bar, the phone start to flashing but is stopping at 0% and the software report ERROR[300]invalid update tool.
I can connect only with MTTY but I'm looking fore some command that can force to send RUU at the fone. For example "send" in telnet. But nobody know how to do this...
If someone have an idea, lot of people will be very very very happy!
And hope gratful
You can try with rom flash from SD card...
Are you italian??
You can found all the info in this website -> Clic here!!!
Yes, I'm Italian.
I'll post this question to that site.
But I think that is possible to force installation of RUU with MTTY.
My problem is that when I have used start_uspl.exe at blank screen was blocked and I have removed battery.
After this my phone is blocked with 3 colors bar and when I try to update, it start but only at 0%
I need to know all MTTY commands
I don't know if MTTY work with P3300, try with the flash from the SD card directly from the device...
This is the link of the discussion...... Click here!!!
Try don't cost anything....
obviously I have try a lot of times... But doesn't work!
I have try to rename in ARTEIMG.nbh and in a lot of different name but when I powe the phone it say Checking SD contents but nothing happen....
I would like to find a command to force reading of SD and writing to the Phone... but I think is not easy...
Thanks whatever....
Do you try with another SD card?
This procedure is the same that the HTC Service use for repair the HTC device...
Try with another SD card... I have a Kingston 2Gbyte and it work very fine!
I hope your Artemis revive very soon!
I have only 2 SanDisk SD cards. One of 128Mb and one of 2GB.
I have tryed with both. With Fat16 and Fat32 but nothing happen...
Sorry for your problems Pinco, I don't have a solution for that but i can strongly recommend another ROM from the great BigX, the one you can see in my signature. OS core seems to be more recent and ROM's almost perfect If you don't have any specific need to use the 2.0, go for Blue-X!

How to load the original ROM back?

I've been reading this forum and the internet for about 4 days now,
hence I post this question...
I have an HTC P3300 (Artemis) and tried flashing windows mobile 6.5 onto the ROM..
it reached about 56% when the usb cable got unplugged and the flash failed.
I can get it into bootloader mode...
I'm from India and the original carrier was Idea.(I suppose so, because it had an Idea screen for a few seconds when the phone was switched on)
I used to use a Vodafone SIM, so I guess it was already CID unlocked.
Tried flashing various roms.. including the HTC windows mobile 6.0 worldwide edition, the t-mobile edition and the sprint edition from this site, after putting it into bootloader mode.
Windows Mobile Device Center will obviously not run, as the phone doesnt go beyond displaying this :
IPL 3.07.0001
SPL 3.07.0000
GSM 02.69.90
OS 1.27.0.0
I havent done a HardSPL and I suppose that the ROM flash only changed the OS ... everything else was probably the same.
I can't get mtty to work via USB....nonetheless, I have no clue how to use mtty.
Here are the filenames of the ROMs i've tried:
1. Evolution 23820 ...(downloaded off some site with windows mobile screenshots that got me all "WOW!")
2. Artemis Vanilla 2.0 WWE
3. ART_TMOUK_11311001_024990_WWE_Ship_R3.exe ..(T-mobile)
4. HTC_P3300_WWE_3.13.405.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R.exe ..(this one should have worked)
5. HTC_P3300_NLD_3.13.404.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R.exe ..(this one's probably german)
6. Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.0 (some .uif cd image that i downloaded off rapidshare..about 65 MB)
7. Opal_WM6.5_D24_21901_COM2_WWE (I know I shouldn't have tried this, but this was my first attempt after successfully updating a touchviva to windows mobile 6.5, but I was a complete n00b back then..)
I tried all these ROMs mostly using a "ROM Update Utility" included with the package..
I also tried getting the .nbh files out and putting them on a 1GB microSD after renaming them "ARTEIMG.nbh" ...it used to say "Checking SD card".. and then would show the RGB bootloader again with :
IPL 3.07.0001
SPL 3.07.0000
Errors I received while flashing through USB :
1. Invalid Vender ID (390)
2. Connection Error (260)
it generally stops at 3%
What should I do now?
Thanks for reading.
ouhh doesnt look very good. but happens aaand can be solved.
try this:
Hardreset your phone
or reinstall the originalrom in bootmode: link
please keep care of the usb cable. or try to reflash your phone via sd-card. its very easy and less dangerous.
tried both
hard reset lands u to the same place.. HTC logo and IPL SPL GSM OS...
installing the rom from the link given ... shows a connection error(in bootloader mode)
and did you try to install another rom via sd card.
wihtout pc-connection?
You have to first unlock your device by uspl and then install the rom or simple way is by using sd card. Search the forum for upgrading Artemis by sd
ok, but how do i use uspl if all i can get to is bootloader mode?????
i thought that u need to have windows mobile running well to use uspl...
WM5 English ROM
Does anyone have the windows mobile 5 english rom for artemis?
I tried the french WM5 rom from rapidshare.. but it doesnt work...
I got it to work!!!!
thanks to all you helpful kind smart people at xda!
well.. you people kept me searching for answers...
i found the original rom at an htc south asia site.. windows mobile 6.0
the htc artemis p3300 is also called "dopod" on that site...
anyway... the only reason i couldnt get to it in the start was that it said the cellphone serial number i'd entered wasn't eligible for the update..
i just messed with the last few digits (interchanged them) and got it to accept the download...
that was plain lucky,...
but it wouldve never happened if i hadn't tried..
now.. i'm going to do an artemis uspl via windows mobile device center according to the guides on various fora..
thanks people!
i want to post the rom to some site so that people can get it even 3 years from now... (most of my links were all from 2007.. so the rapidshare downloads hardly ever worked!).. but i don't know how..
