Hi all, my new BA arrived finally! I have decided to keep it afterall. I am a total n00b at this stuff, and really struggle to understand the Wiki site. However, I did manage to download XDA tools and backup my ROM.
I then downloaded the PDA2k_WWE_14000_176_11200 ROM from the FTP site. It said it was going to update my Radio and Ext. ROM too. Anyhow, it comes up with the country code error.
I added that line of script into the file but it still has the error. Any ideas? I thought the iMate 1.40 ROM was supposed to work on the XDA2s.
I really want a more stable device. Are there any other ways to do this? I tried using XDA Tools to upload the NK part of the iMate ROM separately, but it said it needed to be an exact size to work.
What is the best ROM? We couldn't even figure out how to cook and Ext. ROM so if anyone could give me a hand it would be much appreciated. The Wiki assumes you know what you're doing but I really have no idea.
Cheers guys - Mike x
You don't need to use XDA Tools it you're using a standard manufacturers ROM, just the No ID program for the device ID shortcut.
I had to add the country code ID in too, but after that it was golden. Not sure what's up with you...

If you are on O2 UK and want the imate ROM that also has O2 settings for GPRS, MMS etc, have a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=24000&highlight=
It's a set of instructions that I made using the wiki, as well as info other members had given me, particularly mdaIIIuser to upgrade a UK O2 XDA IIs to the imate 1.40 without having to enter GPRS settings etc manually afterwards, and still keeping the country code to O2 (which means you can use an official O2 upgrade later , without any problems, if they ever get their arses in gear!)
If you need any more help, let me know and I'll do what I can. If you have an ftp site you want me to upload my upgrade files to, PM me with the details and I'll send it you. I'd put in on the ftp here, but i don't think it's worth taking up so much space with a customised ROM.
HTH,
Fin
OK guys, I managed to upgrade my device to the latest iMate ROM, and the 1.13 radio ROM
Problem now is cooking my Ext. ROM. I know I can't update the Ext. ROM that came with the iMate ROM. I want to put my 02 settings in, but I really don't know how. It won't let me put my old 02 image back on the phone, it says the USB is not connected properly
Does anyone have the .nb1 of the 02 Ext. ROM?
Sack that. I downloaded the newest 02 Rom I could find and extracted just the ext. Rom file from the .exe
I am learning
which o2 rom did you use? if it was the uk rom you will have problems as it is 1.31 and your rom is 1.40. you need to unlock the extended rom and copy the base rom 1.40*147 then add your o2 cabs and anything else

Hey thanks Findus, your guide was great.
Yea, I put the 02 1.3 extended ROM on. I didn't know what else to do.
Do you mean the base extended ROM of the iMate 1.40 ROM I put on? I tried that, and there is no Config.txt in the iMate extended ROM.
Sorry, I don't understand this too well

I did not do anything with upgradetools.rar but the device seems to be working fine. I haven't made a call yet as I'm cut off. Does this mean I don't have to do it?
Chers -Mike
Glad to have helped, although I can't take credit, I got all the info from thw wiki and other posts!
Have just been trying to upload my Extended ROM, it is a modified version of Cooked ERK 1.4x Base that can be found in the wiki under ERK 1.40 . This version of the EXT ROM does have a config.txt, you were probably looking at 1.40.176? All I did was add the 6/7 O2 CABS to the config.txt of the base rom, then changed the caller id cab to 1.20 from the link below:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/CAB_Files/Caller ID/IA_CallerID_1.20_WWE.CAB
You will probably have some problems with the Ext ROM you have on at the moment, because you haven't got any of the patches for 1.40 which might mean GPRS etc might be unstable.
I will try and upload my Ext ROM again later if you want, all you will need to do is unlock your ext rom, delete the files, and copy over the new files. DO a hard reset and you're away!
Good luck!
Fin
OK, I don't understand.
I just delete all the files (aside from the 02 setup ones) of my current ROM and put these ones in? I don't need to upgrade the Ext. ROM bith the BAUpdate thing?
No, you won't use the BA Upgrade itility- that is for reflashing, which if you had a ms_.nbf file(extended ROM installation file) you would need. There is no tool to edit ms_.nbf files on Blue Angel, instead you have to unlock the Ext ROM manually, copy/delete files, update the config.txt then do a hard reset. Takes some getting used to- I was used to using er2003edit with my Himalaya to make a custom ms_.nbf file, but hey, this method works too!
Good luck,
Fin
Hey man, I already did it! Well good! It's based on the Qtek ROM you reccommended with the o2 stuff added in and the caller ID updated.
now running:
ROM version: iMate 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10.05
Radio version: 1.13,00
Protocal version: 1337.42
ExtROM: 1.40.147 based on the Qtek cooked for use on 02 UK
My phone hasn't required a single hard reset all day and is still recieving calls (with sound) and messages
Thanks everyone!

Hi
I am about to get an XDAIIs to replace my falling apart PDA2K.
I want to use it on Vodafone.
Is there a real 'idiots' guide to putting the latest and greatest ROM onto the XDAIIs.
(I really do mean idiots guide by the way).
Cheers.
Robin
(I am not responsible for any damage you might do to your device using this guide)
I tried flashing with the NoID tool several times, yet it always failed, or my Universal would not boot after the flash.
The regular T-Mobile update utility did work like a charm, and never failed on my. Thus I created a little tutorial on how to convert wrong ROMs to ROMs it will accept.
In this Example I will explain how to use an O2 XDA Exec ROM (and a different radio ROM) on a T-Mobile MDA Pro device
It's easiest to start with a clean directory to do all this as else it can get quite messy.
First, get the HTC64 Extended ROM Tool by Bal666 here:
http://buzzdev.net/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,100/func,fileinfo/id,196/
Next get an original ROM for your device, in my case I used the T-Mobile UK ROM as my device was english anyway.
For example, on the T-Mobile MDA Pro UK (or dutch) version, use "UNI_TMUK_11242_126_10002_Ship.exe" (find it yoursef)
Use WinRAR (http://www.rarlabs.com/) to unpack this file to a new directory called "Original", and unpack it again to a directory named "Converted".
The Original directory will be used to check things, and the Converted directory will be used to store all the roms that we have converted
Next we must find the ROMs we want to flash. I got "Xda_Exec_LaunchROM_v113139.exe" and Unpacked it in a directory named "O2", and "UNI_radio_1.08.00.rar" (from buzzdev.net) and unpacked it into "Radio Update".
First we must find out some things about our original ROMs. For each original ROM in the "Original" directory, follow the next steps:
- Open the HTC64 Extended ROM Tool
- Click Decode
- Open the ROM (.nbf file)
- Write down the values after "Operator Name" and "Language"
- Hit Cancel
Now we must modify the ROMs from the other distributions.
From the O2 directory we will use nk.nbf (OS) and ms_.nbf (Extended ROM), and from the Radio Update directory we will use radio_.nbf (Updated Radio ROM).
For each ROM you want to convert, follow the following steps:
- Open HTC64 Extended ROM Tool
- hit Decode
- Open the ROM
- In "Operator Name" and "Language" fill in what you wrote down earlier
- Hit Decode
- (on the begin screen) Hit Encode
- Open the .prj file you just created (same name as ROM, but with extensio .prj)
- Hit Encode
- if asked "Overwrite existing ROM", choose "Yes"
- if asked "Fat16 file is too large", choose "OK"
- When done, copy the over-written .nbf file from the directory you created it in (like O2 or Radio ROM) to the Converted directory. Choose to overwrite the existing file.
When all is done, run the ROMUpgradeUT.exe in the Converted directory, and follow the instructions.
If all goes well, you should have upgraded your ROM without having to CID-Unlock or use NoID tools that were originally made for another device
If before the actual upgrade your PC says it has found an unrecognized USB Device, close the RomUpgradeUT.exe with task manager (ctrl+alt+del), and reset your device (push the stylus in the hole at the backside). Then re-run the ROMUpgradeUT.exe
Credits go to iruja because he helped me find these tool
Let me know if it also worked on your device
EDIT: Stupid me, HTC64 Extended ROM Tool is by bal666
EDIT2: Note on "Unrecognized USB Device"
EDIT3: Added credits
Nice Job! Good, Clear and informative instructions.
he, leuke guide, die ken ik ergens van
Nice people like my way, this is the same way I test different roms for the wizard, without having to cid unlock the phone and loose warranty
Thank you "TheBlasphemer"
wow, I searched this forum for a few hours trying to understand how to install roms from other developers onto my Universal. It was driving me insane cause i kept on recieving country id errors. I found your post and was delighted to find how easy it really is to upgrade roms. Thank you for helping people like me who have no clue. Thanks, Thanks and More thanks. I also give shout outs to all others in this forum who take time to help others. XDA Developers is awesome! I'm surprised that developer sites dont link to xda developers for their customers. It would save them alot of time and money. Peace
Great Instructions
Many thanks for the great instructions.
I tried to flash my T-Mobile MDA Pro to the latest i-Mate rom and it became stuck in the Bootloader mode (I used the No-ID tool, and tried every type of reset). Fortunately this approach works, and I'm now the proud over of an much faster PDA.
Rom: 1.30.68 WWE 02/08/06
Radio: 1.09.00
Protocol: 42.42.P8
ExtRom: 1.30.153 WWE
The original T-Mobile Rom sucks compared to these i-Mate Roms
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=42743
Excellent
Crystal clear instructions. worked like a charm once I found the Orange operator code is ORANG007. The "Orange" ROM on ftp appears to be a hash of 3 other versions as the operator names are QTEK001 and CDC__ something or other....
Thanks again for the excellent, no hassle upgrade method!
This procedure will be working on MDA Vario (QTek9100) ?
I have a QTEK 9000 that is in Spanish OS. There is no available downloadable shipping ROM so how do i get the values of Operator Name and Language? Are they in the registry=?
Tried this on my MDA pro NL which is stuck in boot screen, but no dice
I used however the init UK rom from T-mobile, not the NL which was my official one. I don't have a NL so I maybe if I use that one, it'll work, but Im afraid not
Viper, I also have a NL version and would like to upgrade my MDA...did you have any luck doing so or did you find the original dutch ROM?
(A stupid question: when I upgrade my rom, i assume that all my data is lost, right?)
Just wondering did you all upgrade your devices with the exe that came with the new ROM, or the one that comes from the phone vendor? :roll:
Kinda wondering should I use the one that comes with the QTek ROM, or should I use the one that came with the Dopod ROM (mine's a Dopod)
wow, how easy was that
the orange updater from the net (M5000_email.exe M5000) creates a temp directory called
\Local Settings\Temp\pft3CA.tmp\
run the orange updater program so it extracts the files, DONT CLOSE IT, leave it at the point where you make it update (don't hit next)
now follow the steps of the OP
simply decode your chosen rom, encode them with the correct info, then overwrite the roms in the temp directory with your required ones
then let the orange app install 'em for you!
took me 10 min to make my radio only to 1.09
hi guys
my MDA Pro dead, only show boot mode. i can't turn on my phone. i'm using all rom files. but no result. please help me how repar my phone. i'm use then solution no result. i can't change my phone lang. detect phone show only empty info. help me pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
siemens man??
why that name, do you work for 'em?
hi guys
thank you for reply mail. all problem solved. now good working
thanks to Buzz
Thank you verry much i'm verry happy with the Qtek-ROM (radio of Dopod 900) instead of the T-mobile rom
And now I have MSN
Im going to upgrade my MDA PRO tonight using the instrutions in this thread, but which is the best ROM to update it to? i suppose i would like push mail and msn messenger/hotmail.
also is there a slightly more stable internet browser in the ROMS? my current IE is not very good, and opera has the habbit of coming up with a not enough storage memory in dll error!
XDA EXEC is dead
I received my xda exec two days ago. I've tried the ROM upgrade as described. ROMUpgradeUT went OK. When I cold boot my device I get two options - Press 0 to restore factory default Press X to exit. Neither have any effect and the exec seems to be dead. Can someone help out or suggest a fix please?
It's alive !!!
Managed to get the exec in boatloader mode, plugged in usb and reflashed it with an original O2 rom, which, thankfully revived it. I still would like to find out what went wrong with the original ROM upgrade and why it 'killed' the exec. I followed the instructions to the letter. My orignal pre-installed ROM was a 1.13.82 (11/30/05), Radio 1.04.02, XROM 1.13.188. I tried to upgrade to JASJAR ME 1.30.82 171 10900 WWE ship ROM, which effectively turned my exec into (I quote) 'a very expensive paperweight'. I now have got it working with an older O2 original ROM (ROM 1.13.48 (09/19/05), Radio 1.04.02, XROM 1.13.139). When I tried to flash I overwrote the 'original' (ROM 1.13.48 (09/19/05), Radio 1.04.02, XROM 1.13.139) with the modified ROM, RADIO and XROM files from the JASJAR version, I didn't replace any dll files. Could this be the problem or am I way off target? Can anyone spot were I messed up here. Tonight I will try with another JASJAR upgrade, now that I know I can safely reflash with an oringal O2 ROM.
anyone know where i can get ROMUpgradeUT.exe tool from?
What’s in P3600i ? (Also called CHT9110 or D810x)
Recently I bought a new Trinity~CHT9110 that is known
as P3600i or D810x in other countries.
The WM6 ROM of my new Trinity is in Chinese Traditional Version.
The hardware differences between P3600 and P3600i are
CPU 400Mhz upgraded to 500Mhz and storage memory
128MB upgraded to 256MB. ( Please see cap01)
I post what I found with P3600i in these days and
hope every body provides what they found as well
so that we can gather enough information to deal
with P3600i.
1) We can’t use any non-official ROM update utilities
to flash P3600i :
The Hard-SPL, CID unlocker, SSPL-TRIN or any other
update utilities couldn’t work for P3600i.
I tried to down grade to WM5 ROM, and it also failed
at 1%. I hope somebody can work out a new patch
that works..
2) Currently the only way to upgrade the Radio
ROM of P3600i to 1.50.08.11:
Originally the radio version of P3600i is
1.46.00.11
32.79.7020.19H
The radio update utility couldn’t work, either.
So currently the only way for us to upgrade to
1.50.08.11
32.83.7020.20H
is to download official upgrade ROM that is with
new radio version.
The latest official WM6 Chinese Traditional version
has updated to radio 1.50.08.11. So I can update
my new Trinity by flashing the entire official ROM.
(Please see cap02)
3) P3600 and P3600i use the same WM6 ROM:
In fact, the latest official WM6 ROM mentioned above
is released for CHT9100 (or P3600, D810) in HTC’s
web site.
I use this ROM to flash CHT9110 (or P3600i, D810x)
and it works perfectly without any error.
So we get a conclusion that the WM6 ROM released
for P3600 is the same as that used in P3600i.
4) The Extended ROM of CHT9110 (or P3600i,
D810x) has write-back design:
I found a way to mount the Extended ROM and
delete all the files in it. Just follow the two steps:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / System / StorageManger / Profiles / EXT_FLASHDRV /
----> Modify the value of MountHidden from “1” to “0”.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / System / StorageManger / Profiles / EXT_FLASHDRV / FATFS /
----> Modify the value of EnableCache from “0” to “1”.
Please see cap03. The Extended ROM is totally 9.94MB,
7.51MB in use and 2.43MB free. You can view all the
Extended ROM files in cap04.
After modify the registry, you can delete all the files
in the Extended ROM. If you occur the “ Action Failed”
notification, just try again and then the Extended ROM
becomes 0 MB in use.
(Please see cap05)
You can also try copying some files into the
Extended ROM.
But after a soft reset, the files you put into
Extended ROM disappeared and the original files
of Extended ROM are all written back to it.
5) There is one more different file in CHT9110’s
Extended Rom than CHT9100’s.
PT_Enable_WCC.cab
----> I don’t know what’s the usage of this file
This is very useful information. Can I ask you please where can I find the updated ROM you have mentioned, with the new radio??
---quoted
So currently the only way for us to upgrade to
1.50.08.11
32.83.7020.20H
is to download official upgrade ROM that is with
new radio version.
The latest official WM6 Chinese Traditional version
has updated to radio 1.50.08.11. So I can update
my new Trinity by flashing the entire official ROM.
Does this also mean that the wm6voip.cab wont run on the P3600i?
can you upload the full official p3600i ROM with radio version 1.50 to rapidshare?
also, can you test cpu usage when using stylus, on P3600 there is some issue with this, for example when you play some games and use stylus to navigate frame rate drops considerably, I'm just courious if this has been fixed..
yeah I want to know too
from teh HTC web site I can't find the ROM you mentioned above

I found a method that works currently to download
official WM6 ROM of different languages from HTC’s
website.
I guess HTC might close the download access if they
find the leakage mentioned below.
First, go to the HTC’s worldwide website:
http://www.htc.com/
Select the Region & Language you prefer.
Try to join the membership for free~ choose the way
that doesn’t need any purchased device s/n number.
For example, you select Australia-English.
Choose “Service & Support” --> “Download Now”
--> “Join Now, Go”
Then complete the Join Member Process.
If you choose Hong Kong-繁中(Hong Kong- Chinese Traditional)
or Taiwan-繁中(Taiwan-Chinese Traditional),
just choose “會員專區”(Member District)
--> “加入會員”(Join Membership)
Second, go to the official WM6 download website:
http://hsc.asia.htc.com/e-club/download/login.aspx
Select the language and region you’ve just join a membership.
Then you can see the latest WM6 ROM of that language.
HTC provides this rapid download website to customers
due to that the official websites often got stuck when
the WM6 first released in July.
You can join the membership in the www.htc.com website
then go to this rapid download website to log in and enjoy.
I have log in all the different regions and languages that HTC provided.
Only the Taiwan (Chinese) version has the latest radio
ROM of 1.50.08.11.
As you can see in the shortcuts below.
I wonder if you can use the Taiwan (Chinese) version
since you might not buy the CHT9110 in Taiwan.
Please note that the Hard-SPL, CID unlocker or SSPL-TRIN couldn’t work for P3600i.
Please also note that all the wm6 roms are for d810, p3600 or cht9100.
But until now I can get the cht9100 wm6 rom work perfectly for my cht9110,
nice exploit!!!
here is the direct link to the firmware...
http://210.64.124.194/download/CHT9100_TWN_WM6_Upgrade_20070705.zip
Thks for information, I got CHT9110, and have up to latest ROM, but any one can help that I need to flash to WWE (ebglish) Rom, as mention above Hard SPL,CID unlock or any other utility I search and found here can not help to change the rome to English..waiting for help.

For people who are currently using CHT9100, P3600 or D810,
I suggest them to keep using~
it's not very necessary to change from CHT9100 to CHT9110.
But if you are planning to buy Trinity
or your Trinity is broken or got lost,
you are suggested to buy CHT9110
for the following two reasons.
1) CPU speed is promoted by 25%~comparing under the same brand.
2) The flash ROM is doubled~total 256MB, about 168MB available for storage.
That means you don't have to worry about
not enough space for installing progarms in the future.
4) The Extended ROM of CHT9110 (or P3600i,

wow, I got it now. and may consider updating it next time when my system hanged. I just got my HK version P3600i one month ago, and in satisfactory performance. Just see if it is worth the while updating the Radio. But will see.
Thank you very much for this leak....
I can get that rom for taiwan site too
thanks
but I dare not flash it as I want to backup the existing rom first.....
there's no method to backup the rom yet.......
I will keep noticing if someone works out the solution for us. I 'll post it here once the solution come out.

Are you currently using an English Rom? The Rom and Radio listed in your Signature matches mine exactly. And mine is the AUS WWE Rom. And if that's the case, can the others in this post flash this rom to their P3600i's?

Just thought i would post a download link for the latest WM6 official o2 rom, it has been out for a few months but now at least people who have other hermes devices can now download it
http://rapidshare.com/files/82987999/RUU_Hermes_O2_UK_3.62.206.2_6275_1.50.00.00_108_Ship.exe
what kind of O2?
I have O2 Atom.., can it ?
thanx for the info.
Man..this is hermes thread.. so obviously it's hermes o2 rom..
Thank you for the link.
I've been away from the site for a long time and I'm a bit nervous. I started out with a blue angle and did almost very thing to it years ago. So for with the Hermes I only done the official updates. But now my phone is unlocked incl SCID and Hard-SPL-V7, I need re-arrange things.
So after day's of reading I come to the conclusion thus. To use this upgrade I did to extract the *.nb's and re-compile them back to a RUU_signed.nbh. ( Herm_ExtendedRom.nb + PrimarySplash.nb + Radio.nb + SecondarySplash.nb + Windows.nb extracted and re-compiled using nbhtool-v101) With my newly created RUU_signed.nbh I can install using RUUWrapper.exe and a USB cable or re-name it to HERMIMG.nbh and install from SD card.
Could someone confirm that this would be my procedure.
(P.S. when re-compiling the *nb's using nbhtool-v101 I used the setting HERM100 instead of HERM200. My Hermes is a 100 according to the Device Information -> Model No:.

Excellent post sir, i like to see people who have done thier homework
Best thing to do is only to flash a radio unless you REALLY need to. Leave out the radio nb file and just rebuild the ROM as you (correctly) described.
Flash the new nbh file using RUUWrapper over USB (sync with activesync first).
Take a look at the thread in my sig about the choices of radio ROM.
Good luck sir
Thank you mrvanx for the reply and confidence. My radio is 1.16.00.00, with radio roms going up to 1.54.? I think I need updating. So this being an official rom I'll use it as a base. I'm hoping to try Schap's WM6 4.31 if all gos well.
hey, i upgraded my Asus P525 to "Latest WM 6.1 version:
by
Alex[DFR] or sp3dev"
and it works great for me.
now i want to remove it from wm6 to wm5 again and i have the Orginal Rom for Asus P525 (V.3.42 Hebrew), i just need to install the Rom and it will back angain to Wm5? (Its Because i still have guaranty and it demands the manufacturer orginal Rom).
thank you very much,
Itay.
There's no problem. The only thing - you would possibly run ASUS.UnlockLangID.exe on your device before you start to flash it - otherwise you may get Wrong Language message.
thankl you very much.
and where can i find ASUS.UnlockLangID.exe? i have p525 and my Orginal Rom is 3.43 in Hebrew.
Download, extract, copy to your device (MiniSD), run....
For the future come to http://asusmobile.net/board/index.php if interested... It was just opened...
You may need to flash the same ROM 2 times to get the extension ROM and partition configuration back.
And...if you used the official WM6 ROM, the bootloader does not accept WM5 cap files, you need to decode the nb0 file and use that instead.
Hi guys
have a P525, originally purchased in UAE(English).
have sucessfully flashed to various WM6 Mobiz roms, v10, 18, 19 etc
now want to revert back to WM5, as PIM does not transfer, etc and many other programs (from WM5 ) do not work in WM6 environement.
Baut cannot revert back to WM5.
- downloaded various ASUS WM5 ROM, WWE, WWE ARA all versions 3.43 etc
- have tried using both bootloaders 06xxxxx and 07xxxxx
- with any official ASUS ROM, always get the following error
ROM image found :\MiniSD Card \Galaxy.cap
Language(English), is compatable with the device language(Unassigned).
then click System- Rom update , and imiditaely get the error:
ROM update cannot be applied to this regions version!
- i have also tried the ASUS.UnlockLangID ( runing this before attempting above update), but no difference, same error.
- i have also tried changing the local in system properties, to English, Arabic, Thai and reatempt falshing with ASUS WM5 roms but always get same error message as above.
