will new T-Mobile upgrade ruin my unlocked MDA PRO?

I'm a happy user of the MDA PRO.
Thanks to Buzz I was able to remove the SIM-lock.
Now T-Mobile Netherlands offers an upgrade ( UNI_TMNL_130115_130233_11003_WWE_BL101_Ship.exe )
that can be found here:
http://www.t-mobile.nl/zakelijk/htdocs/page/service/hardware_updates/mda_pro_update.aspx
Has anyone tried this one?
Does pushmail for example finally work?
And more important: will it keep the SIM-unlock intact?
Many thanks in advance for any information.
Okki

The UK update works. Can't see why the NL one wouldn't.

I have a MDA pro doorstop now, becuase of updating
I updated my MDA PRO with the new UK version, and now my phone DOES NOT WORK at all!!! I've tried reinstalling Roms, and nothing works. I basically have a really expensive door stop now. Upgrading could cause a lot of trouble so beware!!!
If anyone knows how I can fix my phone, please let me know, [I tried mtty util, but nothing seems to work[

Is your battery fully charged? One requirement for ROM upgrading is to have a fully charge battery.

i think it was partially charged. will that make a big difference? well i can't really check now if my bat is chasrged or not because the only thing that will work is bottloader. It really sucks dude.

If you have a friend with another Universal, ask him or her to charge it for you, then try to install the ORIGINAL ROM made for your device. For example if your device is an O2 Exec, go to O2's web site and download their latest ROM. If your device is an I-Mate, go to I-Mate's web site and download the latest ROM for your particular device. Some Universal owners were able to revive their Universal this way.

Big Big Big problem new rom

Good morning all
Is the first time that i write in a forum, i'll try to explain my problem and i hope that somobody can help me.
I'm working in china and one day i lost my thelephone, so i decided to buy a PDA HTC P3300.But only after some day i saw that some thing was not working, so i'm tring to downgrade a new rom.
Here i had my problem, i followed all the details that i found on internet, also i took some informations and file from this forum to coplete the procedure like Hard SPL and so on, the problem is that when activesync is connected to the device i launch for example Hard SPL to upgrade it but after the program showed me the version installated and i said upgrade, i waited for a while and then the progam told me to check the usb connection (i tried whit 3 different cable) ERROR 260.The same thing happened when i tried to change the ROM.
CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE?? I NEED THE PDA ALSO FOR WORK.
Thank you everybody!

Hard Spl??? For the Artmes?? Mate are you trying to brick your device cause it seems you are doing a pretty good job of it too,Hard Spl is NOT for the p3300 it is for the Hermes and Trinity which are two very very different models of HTC. Please make an effort to read the Wiki before you start messing with the phone.Try flashing the t-mobile stock rom FOR THE ARTEMIS(WITHOUT THE HARD SPL) and hopefully it may work also find out from your buyer if it is CID unlocked though i doubt wether they would know.

Check in Settings - Connections - USB to PC that the USB advanced network functionality is not ticked. That's caught me out in the past after making changes.
This is assuming that others in this forum are correct and you've not yet made a brick using the wrong model. Good luck!

Did you buy it in China?
If you bought the phone in China, there will be 2 versions. 1 for the chinese market (han huo) and the others are for other markets (usually europe) then flashed with the chinese rom (shui huo). As far as I know the chinese versions aren't locked and the foreign market versions musn't be locked either due to the fact that they have to put on the chinese rom

ASUS P550 - help?

Hi,
I have a problem and after doing a massive research I found this forum and I am wondering if someone could help me.
I have been trying to locate ASUS P550 for several weeks now and although it's sold in the UK as Vodafone v1520, it's modified for branding purposes and no good. At least I think it's not good. After talking to ASUS support I found out that the model is also for sale in Russia and Ukraine as ASUS P550, but unfortunately the WM6 on these devices is Russian.
Before deciding on buying the device I wanted to know if it would be possible that someone with the necessary skills and knowledge would be willing to try to change the language to English. I noticed that someone has done something similar for previous ASUS models like the P535. What I had in mind was that I would buy the device, export the ROM image and let somebody have it for modyfying / testing.
I have to say that I don't know much about smartphones and/or PDA-s besides what I have read and that is that the language cannot be changed simply by a push of a button like a normal person would expect. I also don't know much anything about ROMs or handling them, therefore I don't know whether it's possible to modify the ROM at all without the specific device in hand.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Nobody knows nothing?

OK, I guess I am in a wrong message board.
I would have paid - and I still would - $100 for this.

I have the vodaphone version v1520 I am not sure what the difference is to the native version but its a great phone very fast and stable.
what do you think the other does that is advantageous and can I help clarify anything at all.

Thank You for your input. The answer to Your question is actually that after read some threads about the Vodafone branding I don't think that one or the other has any advantages over the other anymore. I just could not get my hands on the v1520 (which is English of course) while I was posting this thread. But now I got one from ebay and it is delivered tomorrow. So no need for ROM cooking anymore.
Thanks again.

Ok mate
If you find anywhere to learn and get cooked roms for the device let me know I have searched and searched but cant find anywhere.
the device is good but cooked roms always are better than shipped roms.
I cant seem to find a forum on the device with anyone doing anything with it..
If you know anything at all pm me or post here
Cheers
ps if I learn anything I will let you know

OK, deal. What I was told in another forum was that since the device is so new and there isn't yet an official ROM outthere it's quite too soon to expect to see a cooked ROM. It just takes time probably.

Actually there isn't any good information in this forum that You have posted, for example in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393647 - You promised to share details if anyone was interested and there was lot of people interested, the only thing missing was fulfillment of Your promise. Even after I sent many PM to You, You didn't reply or post anything. That is currently the case.

Niceeeeeeeeeeeee

Looks good mate. Keep it coming!

My one issue with this (and only a small one!) is that .info sites are notorious for scammers. Obviously thats not a scam site but you don't wanna be tarred with same brush!

really? ha well, the main reason is that a .info is $0.99/year haha (maybe its cheap since they're only used by scammers now?)... and i don't think it hurt trinityguides being on an .info domain.. but if accessing a .com would make you feel more at home, then donate away!

LOL 99c - no wonder they are used by scammers.... !!

Looks really nice. Keep up the good work.

Hmm.. I know it sounds very stupid and yes it is.
I do not know which version I had before. It was one of the earlie Expansys Models build for UK. Does someone know which SPL was the original one?
Cheers

hmm... i don't know about that. wouldn't it be the one on the official UK ROM that's circulating? or is that without SPL?

It was an original UK-ROM. So I guess a UK device.
Bought her ein germay from a company who had the device already 2 weeks ago.
Everything was in english and the default region was set to english (uk).
Maybe I ned to have a look at the box. Maybe I can find more info about the device there.

Really nice.
Some basics need to be Explained:
SPL,Radio,ROM differences, three parts.
What is a ROM
What is SPL and Bootloader
Why do we need HardSPL
What happens when we Flash Rom
What happens with hard reset
What happens with soft reset
What is the Radio Rom
Internal Storage and Memory difference
These basics will make a newbe more familiar with procedure.
IT's very well explained how HARDSPL install works, but when never done this, no-one will know what HARDSPL is and a newbie never is sure enough about it to just flash without asking us. And we want this Explanations, so one does not have to ask

Please help! Diamond will not boot
Hi
I did something really stupid. I was having battery drain issues with my new Touch Diomand, so I logged into HTC website to get the firmware upgrade.
I used to have an HTC Touch, and that was the only firmware available on their site, at the time I did not realise that it was the wrong one for me !
So I started installing it, it failed, and now I get the rainbow screen at startup.
I have tried hard reset, no joy. I have called HTC, they cannot help. No-one here in NZ services these phones, so I am stuck.
I have tried installing the firmware update from modmydiamond.info, but I STILL get the same problem, it just shows the rainbow screen and I cannot continue from there...
On a PC,this would be a bootstrap issue, I have no idea what to do (other than buying an iphone) any wisdom ??

That site is really nice...it introduced me to the HTCD flash world...
thanks.

the bootloader te tri-colour screen reads SPL-1.30 OliNex i.s.o. 1.40. What
did I do wrong? What are the differences between 1.30 and 1.40?
Thanks in advance,

P.S.: Great site!!

1.12.404.1 nld

CAN ANYONE FIND THIS ROM 1.12.404.1 NLD?
iv been helping a friend for a week now and still no luck, its like it doesnt exist, although, i did find the rom on one site but gotta pay for the download.
he also mentioned ''Gold Card'' im not sure what this is but if anyone knows what to do and wouldnt mind giving me a link or step by step tutorial, this would be a great help.lol
any help will be appreciated.. thank you in advance..

as far as i know, a goldcard is nothing more then the correct rom stored on a SD-card.. it was a way for a lot of commercial people to generate money for bricked devices.
i dont have the image u want though, so im sorry, cant help

you already have helped,lol i read a post this mornin, basicly what you just told me but was unsure because the post was about a differant phone, model etc..
so the only chance to get my friends artemis back to life is with the official rom..
theres plenty of people on this site, (most helpfull, some not lol) but someone out there must have the official nld rom!
cheers..

bricked phone
You can unbrick the phone using a sd card of max. 2 Gb. Search on the formum, i don't remember the exact steps. Basicly, put the rom you want to use on the root of the card, enter the flashmode with the rainbow collored screen and choose the card. Then the flash starts. You can enter the flashmode using the software tool, or use the buttons on your device. For step by step see http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_SD_Card_Flashing
Good Luck.

Did you already searched the wiki? All links are there, although they are outdated.
