Seeking xda2unlock source file

Hi all,
I am looking for the source files for the xda2unlock.exe tool. In the thread about this subject, the link does no longer work...
I want to upgrade this program for use for the BlueAngel (xdaIIs/xdaIIi/MDAIII/PDA2K/ etc).
If anyone can tell me where to find it, or if you have it on your harddrive somewhere, please PM me!
Thanks in advance.

Hey HappyGoat,
I've been looking for the source too. I found the source for a tool called xda2unlockcode, but I'm not sure if this is related to xda2unlock or if it's an older version or something. I don't have a Himalaya anymore so I haven't even tested it. It's on itsme's website if you want to take a look:
http://nah6.com/~itsme/cvs-xdadevtools/itsutils/xda2dmp/
He's actually got some other useful tools in there too such as a perl script to decode the BlueAngel radio ROM:
http://nah6.com/~itsme/cvs-xdadevtools/xda2nbftool/decoderadio.pl
If anyone can figure out how to crack the BA unlock mystery I reckon it's "itsme". Maybe he's already working on a tool, who knows?!

Nice work, No1...you do your name justice...
Thanks for the reply...and I agree, if anyone can do it easily, it's itsme...will send him an email and see if he has time or can help me.
Cheers,
HappyGoat

Vodafone Rom

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.

Modifying a ROM Country / Vendor ID

I have read that this is possible on 4winmobile but cannot find the relevant thread which relates.
Can any smart programmer here point me in the direction of where I could learn how to do this? ... If indeed (hopefully) it can be done!
.... my aim: to upload another ROM (ie HTC, Dopod) onto my locked UK O2 Orbit.... it's currently stuck in bootloader and it would be nice if this was something I could try to do!
Thanks.

Dumped Rom Need Help

Ok, so I have scoured the threads and learned a lot, but I'm still a noob at this development process. What I'm trying to do is reconstruct an nbh from an nTelos rom from the stock. I have created a backup with all 4 raws and even reconstructed it using several methods, namely the raphael method posted with juggler raphael rom kitchen. This is probably the reason I'm getting the errors.
After reconstructing it to nbh, I flash and get a code 244 Invalid Model.
I am posting my backup with hopes someone can help in anyway. If someone could give me a few pointers, I'd appreciate it.

I don't think you should be using a kitchen for other devices (namely Raphael). Head over to Chef Central and you will certainly get more support there. You could try to use EVK to cook, which is a generic kitchen with support for the Vogue (Ondraster's kitchen works very well too!)
