WM2005 on a Blue Angel

I have a Blue Angel as mentioned in my signature and I have what I believe are all of the files needed to try and install WM2005 Build 14326.0.0.0 onto it.
Here are the WM2005 files I currently have:
HimaUpgradeUt - 512KB - 5/5/2004 4:54PM
nk.nbf - 32,769KB - 3/21/2005 9:08AM
And the following came from my existing ROM:
ms_.nbf - 16,833KB - 2/3/2005 7:45PM
radio_.nbf - 4,097KB - 2/3/2005 7:45PM
I also have a good copy of ActiveSync Beta 4.0.0 and have all of the instructions that were made in the main WM2005 post for installing on the Himalaya and I'm assuming it should be the same for the Blue Angel.
My device info currently reads:
Model No: PH20A2
Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition Version 4.21.1088 Build 14132
ROM Version: 1.36.00 WWE
ROM Date: 01/13/05
Radio Version: HA00_140
Protocol Version: AA3.3.301
ExtROM Version: 1.36.110 WWE
Hardware Version: 0041
This is what it came with out of the box, I have not installed the updated ROM Audiovox released the day the phone was released because I have never had a single problem and some people who upgraded reported problems and that some files were a day older than the version that shipped in the original ROM.
-------------------
Now my 1st question, the newest updated ROM installer package from Audiovox which was released 3/4/2005, has a different version of the upgrade utility, it's called "HaUpgradeUt - 424KB - 12/23/2004". The package it was included in from Audiovox's website was called "HA_SPCS_13600_113_00140_6600". Which upgrade utility is the best to use or does it not matter?
Now my 2nd question, has anyone yet tried this on a Blue Angel? Is there anyone here who really knows thier stuff who is willing to help me if I get lost or screwed up so I can be the Blue Angel WM2005 test pig?
Thanks!

hi
i have a pda2k with 1.33 rom and radio rom 1.08 and my cooked rom
i tried the upgrade but got the device authentication error.. tried it with the explained patch and the other method in original wm2005 post.. the himupgrade starts the procedure and then stops after some time saying an error occured..
but you go ahead and try it..may be you will do something differently and will succeed..
note: i have tried the xda 2 SE rom and imate jam rom and almost tried the alpine rom on my pda2k.. there is nothing you cannot revert back from
just incase if you are curious what happened after the above roms..my device didnt boot.... no problem...just unplug the usb port of the cradle and run a wwe rom made for xda 2s or pda2k ...everything will work then!
good luck..
keep us posted!!!!

in the above post: i mean unplug usb then replug usb and then run the BAupgrade utility....
can you upload hte 1.36 rom you have??? does your device have wifi and camera???
thanks

Where is the post for this "explained patch method" you are referring to? Also I'm considering the post titled "Microsoft Windows Mobile Version 5.0 I can share" as the original WM2005 post so we are on the same page in our thinking on that one.
The ROM is a free download from Audiovox, I guess I could upload it though.
I'm assuming the BAupgrade utility is on this site for download?
My device does have the camera but no WiFi, it has EV-DO instead. It's a CDMA phone, not a GSM phone...

your running the Verizon EVDO version of the the BlueAngel a CDMS 1xrt yada yada device. Most new ROM images are made for GSM phones then latter altered to talk to CDMA modules. In this case I think ot only would you not have a "good" experience but would warn against it. Second BlueAngel devices have OEM driver for the slide out keyboard. You will most likely loose for sure its use with this new OS. This is why the only devices it is worrking on right now are non-hardwired keyboard devices. Also there seems to be a notable diff in the hardare implimentation between HTC based devices. What software might work with one may not at all or damage another. Sorry for the down news but I think unless you have a keyboardless device I would not recomend playing with it. Just my 2 cents.
What you can do though is grab some of the elements (image files) from the new OS in other threads here, and overwrite the files on your device. Kind of like adding crome package or racing stripes. still the same car, just feel new :wink:

Thanks for the input. I'm running the Sprint version, not the Verizon one, same difference though pretty much, lol. 2.5G Vs. 1xrt and both have EV-DO, and then of course the frequency of the Verizon digital and Sprints PCS, but yeah both CDMA
I really couldn't care less about the keyboard, I don't even use it, never really have. Honestly, I work for CompUSA and if this thing gets buggered up I'll just exchange it out. I'm going to do a full backup tonight, hard reset, dump the existing ROM and then start the process just for grins to see how it goes. As long as it's not dog slow, text messaging works and email along with voice functions I'll be happy as heck. It'll atleast be fun to screw with and then I can always go back later.
I'm still unclear on some things like the country code and stuff that was mentioned in the other posts. Once I know I have all the facts and all of the files I'll give it a try and post back here. I'm off Sunday, Monday, & Tuesday so I'll have 3 days straight to play. I have to say my only real concern is it working with the CDMA radio which hopefully it will since I have a good copy of the latest Radio ROM for it...

hi 92GTA
yeah were on the same page..
wm2005 i can share is the original post..and i think page 10 has the answer (im not entirely sure though the post has now 17 pages!!!)

@ 92GTA : can you share this 2k5 ROM ? can you upload to a ftp and give us a link

bad :
read properly : he WANTS to install WM2005 on his IIs.
Why should you people go around risking your devices like this?
It's like putting diesel in a petrol car..things will screw up...
The 2005 upgrade currently available is only meant for XDA II devices, not IIs or II mini...or whatever. Hardware differences will render your efforts rather futile save for a massive hack.. Sigh.

Sign me up too, CMDA but my has 1x instead of EV-DO. I would be willing to try it.

Where on Audiovox is the 2005 rom?. All I've ever seen are the 2003se updates.

Dopod C720w Windows Mobile 6 ROM is HERE (???)

http://cnc.91files.com/?2y2jzrf7py6280cwnueh
Haven't tried it but seems to be a working WM6 ROM. I believe it was based on the official T-Mobile ROM with customizations.
Downloading it right now and will flash later. Care to flash anyone?

Server seems to be soooo slow, running at 20kbps..

ive downloaded it...i get error 202...connection....im using vista...dont know wat to do from here...

File dates look too old to be a new version... the NBH file is from the 2 of April - that supports the TMobile ROM theory Looks like we'll have to keep on waiting. Although maybe we will be rewarded within the next two weeks

ok i got passes error 202 now i get invalid update tool

If its just an update of the T-Mobile, then will it be any good?
Please let us know if you manage to flash it?
uccellino: What do you mean, we'll be rewarded in 2 weeks?

I'm hoping that the official HTC release of WM6 for the s620 comes out within two weeks. I've heard rumours of it coming August 17 and sometime in September - I'm not sure what to think. In anycase, didn't HTC take over the Dopod brand, making it a bit silly for Dopod devices to get an update before HTC ones?

Well, that might be silly, but here's what is sillier.
Officially, HTC has announced an update for the HTC S620. But officially, neither HTC nor Dopod have announced an update for the c720w. In fact, they have said that they won't do it.
So that's why there is excitement over this release, not because its come out earlier.

anyone install this yet?

I downloaded it and I couldn't get it to work and I know my phone is on unlocked for sure, because, first of all I paid the $40 to do it and secondly I successfully installed another ROMs. Besides It's only that T-Mobile ROM and from all I read about it, you are better off not installing it. I finally went with the Russia WM6 ROM on my C720W and it's working great!! I had to make some adjustments, but that's part of the fun! As I said in another thread, I can't see the official HTC WM6 ROM being any better then this Russia ROM. Cheers

So I downloaded this and then unzipped the RAR file, I then tried to run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe, Vista popped up Are you sure you want to run it, I selected Run, and it did absolutely Nothing.
I tried rebooting my computer and running it again and it is the same thing everytime. It doesn't do Anything.
What can I do to make it run?

this info might applied to you ...
http://www.modaco.com/RUU-Vista-done-u-t252977.html
This is the Activesync 4.5 RTM USB driver needed on VISTA OS ...
report back so others can benefit
are you sure it's not working ??? just so you know ... when the phone is app unlocked, you would still get a prompt everytime regarding "unknown publisher" & you need to confirm by clicking "OK"...etc ( that's normal !! )
to resolved that ... you need to go a step further !
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315230
... it could also be that you are in need of runtime files and/or .NET framework on your desktop machine ..
I'd also noticed that you mentioned you have a S621 on the other post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1431021&postcount=17
what are you doing trying to flash the c720w ROM to a s621 ???
I know that they are the same machine by marketing ... but there are bits that are diffrent internally ... or else why do you think all of us S621 owners not doing this ???.. instead of waiting for HTC to release the WM6 ROM now ... some of us went ahead and installed the "RUSSIAN" leaked version instead
I'll give you an example:
the comming soon HTC TyTN II P4550 (HTC Kaiser 120) -->> US
VS
the comming soon T-Mobile MDA Vario III (HTC Kaiser 120) -->> Germany
they are the same machine like the comparision I gave above ... BUT ... look closely at the specs ... there are some differences ... not really exact now ... is it ??

Graytraveler, try .84, 90 did not work for me with a stock Tytn II, but 84 did. Or I used Dutty's latest ROM from Xda-developers.com and .92 worked fine with that.
Hchickers, you can try this:
1. Hard reset.
2. Change device ID, from Start -> Settings -> System -> About -> Device ID to HTC_P3450
3. Install a registry editor, such as Resco (www.resco-net.com) or Total Commander (www.ghisler.com, I use 2.5 beta 3). Then edit
HKLM\System\Versions\AKU key, change whatever in there (like .0.0.3) to .0.4.2
Then soft reset and install Blackberry Connect. This method worked for some people (they weren't using 750, but still). It might work for you as well.

Upgrade to 6.5 (either d-two's roms or sun_dream's roms will do)
Good luck!

Thanks egzthunder1, I tried to Upgrade it today but without success and don't know why that. I'm following this TUT http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630416 from Chef Tony.
1. Download Unlocker.cab and Repartdoc.exe to BA
2. Run Unlocker and i have already one directory's called ExtendedRom
And the next step when i run unhide or unlock it appears one error message. and then i tried so many way (rename "programme" to "Programme files" or "programmmes") but it has the same error.
Have you got any idea with this. My BA is from T-Mobile Germany.
Thanks.

well, what is the error message exactly?
if it is something like "target not found", then the start menu link does not point anywhere, and then your programmes folder needs to be renamed to "\Program Files" exactly. the 3 versions you posted are all from other languages and won't work.
