Why my SPV5000 don't want 1.30 rom ?

Hi, i have a SPV5000 and i can put a lot of kind of 1.13 rom inside, like Qtek or Orange.
But impossible to put any 1.30 rom (orange, qtek french or WWE).
I've tried a lot of solution like "put the radio first" ... rest after.
Do you know if it's possible that my hardware version refuse this 1.30 rom?
I think the guy who sell me the spv sell me a pre-serie .
Thanks

The first question I want to ask is: How do you perform the upgrade? Do you use the No ID Tool? If not, try using it. Here is an instructions I made:
The file is extracted in your computer. Once you run the shipped.exe file, you need to go to:
My Computer
Your Drive (mine is Drive C)
Show the contents of this drive
Documents and Settings
Choose your folder name
Choose "TOOLS" from the menu bar
Choose "FOLDER OPTIONS"
Click on the "VIEW" tab
Click on "HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS"
YOU WANT TO SHOW ALL HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS
Now go to TEMP folder
Now you will notice a bunch of folders will show up, tons of them to be exact. What you need to do now is click on the shipped.exe file again and "LOOK" for the folder being created because that folder is what you want to copy. If you did not see it created, you have to manually open each folder and look for the files I listed below.
Assuming you found the folder, you will have these following files inside that folder:
ms_.nbf----------------------this file is responsible for EXT ROM Version
nk.nbf------------------------this file is responsible for Windows Mobile Version
radio.nbf---------------------this file is responsible for Radio Version
EnterBL
GetDeviceData
readme
ROMUpgradeUt
RUU.conf
RUU.dll
UI.dll
MaUpgradeUt_noID
If the file MaUpgradeUt_noID is not there. You need to get hold of a copy of this file as you need this.
There you have it, REMEMBER, you need to have the MaUpgradeUt_noID file plus all the rest of the file in one folder if you want to upgrade to the ENTIRE I-Mate ROM, QTEK, O2, or whatever ROM you want.
If you only want to upgrade to the radio version then you need to delete 2 files namely: "ms_.nbf" and "nk.nbf". Leave "radio.nbf" alone and click on the "MaUpgradeUt_noID" file to initiate the Radio installation. Basically those 3 files control what you want to update on your device.
Hope my instructions were clear enough for you. Hope this helps.

Thanks for your complete response
Of course i'm using the MaUpgradeUt_noID ... i have no error message during the process but at the end after the hard reset i have black screen.
and to try to only flash the radio I renames other files .
thanks
I steel don't enderstand ....

It won't hurt to try and update using Boot Loader Mode.
What do you mean "0.56"?

when I put my spv in bootloader mode, I can see on the screen :
on the top : USB
Botom of the screen V.0.56

You might be right. Your exec must be one of the earlier version. I remeber some time ago, someone asked the same question you did. Maybe someone else can help. Have you tried upgrading it using my instructions?

thank you again and of course I've tryed your method.
every thing works with previous version but not on 1.30
i spent 3 days on it .....

I believe you need to find out how to upgrade the "Serial USB" application on your Universal for the No_ID Tool to work. Other than that you probably need a version of the No_ID Tool that works at an earlier version of the "Serial USB" version that you have. I'm sorry too, if I didn't help.

Instruction Guide For The Htc Universal Rom Upgrading

1st STEP: You need the MaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe File. The purpose of this file is to avoid any ERRORS while upgrading any part of the ROM.
2nd STEP: You need to get a hold of the ROM file so you can extract the necessary files from it. This is provided by the phone manufacturer.
****To extract the file, someone recomended WinRAR. If you don't have it, follow this: Go to
My Computer
Your Drive (mine is Drive C: )
Show the contents of this drive
Documents and Settings
Choose your folder name
Local Settings
Look for the "Temp" Folder
Choose "TOOLS" from the menu bar
Choose "FOLDER OPTIONS"
Click on the "VIEW" tab
Click on "HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS"
YOU WANT TO SHOW ALL HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS
3rd STEP: You need to extract the following files namely and add the MaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe File. These 10 files are found in one of the folders within the "TEMP" folder after running the file you got from Step 2.
ms_.nbf----------------------this file is responsible for EXT ROM Version
nk.nbf------------------------this file is responsible for Windows Mobile Version
radio.nbf---------------------this file is responsible for Radio Version
EnterBL
GetDeviceData
readme
ROMUpgradeUt
RUU.conf
RUU.dll
UI.dll
MaUpgradeUt_noID
*****You need these 11 files if you want to upgrade the ENTIRE ROM.
*****If you only want to upgrade to the RADIO VERSION then you need to delete 2 files namely: "ms_.nbf" and "nk.nbf". Leave "radio.nbf". So there are 9 files on it.
NOTE: The "TEMP" folder has many folders within it. It is your job to look which folder was created upon running the .exe file from step 2. You need to copy those 10 files and paste them on a new folder.
4th STEP: After gathering the necessary files and choosing which part you want to upgrade and keep, you need to put your device to boot loader mode by pressing 3 buttons simultaneously:
Power Button
Backlight Button
Reset Pin
5th STEP: Plug your Universal via USB. Wait for your computer to recognize a newly plugged device.
6th STEP: Now you are ready to upgrade. Double click the MaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe File to run it and follow the on screen instructions.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Hi...
Nice guide indeed..but u forgot one important step....that is hard resetting after the complete upgrade... :lol:

I saw a thread somewhere which advised against hard resetting at the end of the procedure, so I did a soft reset instead. All worked perfectly.

Thanks for the input guys. I also remember, I did not perform a hard reset myself, just a soft reset at the end. But I choose not to include that on the steps as the computer will show a window as to what you're supposed to do or press during the upgrade anyway.

great post!

radio version? Windows Mobile version? and EXT Rom?
cktlcmd, You wrote in your first post about deleting one or 2 of the files to tailor which or all 3 of the versions you want to upgrade? I don't get it? What are the differences between the three? Who wouldn't want to upgrade everything? I have an o2 Exec in the USA. I changed the ROM to I-Mate, but it is still so bad. I have to reset the phone all day long. I am trying to reload the Jasjar rom or the other ROMs to just try something to maybe see if it will perform better. I have downloaded and used Pocket Mechanic and done a few other things recommended but nothing has seemed to have an improvement over freezes I get all day long. Have any advice? Thanks,

I have tried all ROMs that came out on this site. The ones I recommend are only 2:
1st: QTEK's latest ROM
2nd: JWright's Modified ROM
From my post above these 3 files determine which part you want to upgrade:
ms_.nbf----------------------this file is responsible for EXT ROM Version
nk.nbf------------------------this file is responsible for Windows Mobile Version
radio.nbf---------------------this file is responsible for Radio Version
If you look at my signature below. I am using TMobile's Radio while using JWright's Modified ROM. It all depends on you which combination you feel is more stable. On my Universal, I never had any troble no matter what ROM I used, but these 2 I listed above surpasses any ROM released by other manufacturers on my opinion.

error 120 country id
Ok, so which of the three files is responsible for the country id error 120?
I am trying to upgrado my os xda exec to the latest JASJAR_WWE_19096_19505_11300_AKU_3_2_ship rom but I keep getting the same error again.
Please, I need help.

What 3 files? If you are referring to the .nbf files, none of them are responsible. Follow the instructions above and keep repeating them, sometimes it takes more than one try for the Error 120 to disappear according to some who experienced it.

I'm being really thick today and struggling here. I've downloaded
JASJAR_WWE_19096_19505_11300_AKU_3_2_ship.zip
MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip
T-Mobile_ExtROM.zip
and unzipped them.
The .nbf files are not present, althought the _ship.zip was 70mb before unzipping so I guess this contains everything :s
Is there an idiot's guide for installing this acclaimed ROM on an MDA Pro?
When I run the maupgrade tool, the wizard shows an image of an imate Jam (or something like that, not a Universal) but tells me it runs OK.
The T Mobile ext rom also shows the "wrong" HTC device but claims to run OK.
The main JASJAR_WWE_19096_19505_11300_AKU_3_2_ship.exe just gives the "120" error complaining of the wrong device (although the picture is of a universal this time at least)
Please tell me what I'm doing wrong, I'm going quite mental here

resetting
Please excuse a noob question, but earlier the discussion was about the type of reset to do after the ROM upgrade. As per instructions in the s/ware, I did the cold boot. All is perfect - thanks.
If I needed to perform a hard reset at any point in the future, am I correct in assuming this would just reload the new ROM or would this reload the old O2.
Many thanks

Actually, you are on the right track. Now you need to run the HUGE FILE you mentioned that is about 70MB. That is the REAL file you want to extract which contains the 10 files necessary for upgrading listed on my procedure. Follow my instructions once you run this file. Follow the instructions on where you will find the files.

YES, if you perform a hard reset. The new upgraded ROM will be the default ROM restored on your device.

OK, from scratch.
I've just run the MAUpgrade exe and that ran *very* quickly.
I've now ran the T-mobile ext ROM upgrade, hard reset.
When the \extrom autoruns, should I just select T Mobile UK? Or cancel?

I think you are doing what I was when it finaly clicked.
By the way, thanks to cktlcmd for the breakdown of the process.
The bit you will need to understand is that when you run the .exe, it unpacks the files into a folder in the Temp directory cktlcmd mentions. All i did then was to search for one of the files listed and i found the folder that way. I then copied the files into a more convinient folder and added the MAUpgrade as per the instructions. Once i did this, running the MAUpgrade does as described.
I know this may seem a bit long winded, but I got there in the end. Also, by saving the contents of the folder elsesware means I can play with it later as also discribed by cktlcmd.
The JASJAR rom is sofar great.
Thanks for all your hard work cktlcmd

Have you tried my instructions yet? Try downloading the files again. Sometimes they get corrupted.

it is fixed by flashing with original t-mobile 1.30.232 rom.
but when i flash ivanb14 it is again freezing at 19% of stage3.
what can be the problem ? i have downloaded the ivanb14 rom 3 times and i receive the same error message.

getting vendor id errore while upgrading the official wm6

im using a tytn and getting errore message
dows the official upgrade is for tytn or doopod ?
anyone can help ??
i try using hard sspl and still .. same

I think it may be because it is a rom for Asian networks... I got a similar error, and will have to manually import the settings for my network providor... other than that, everything else went fine...
I believe there are cabs kicking about this forum to auto setup for various providors.. I think it is trying to auto detect your vendor, and if not Asian, is returning the error
I think thats all the error is showing...

If you've downloaded one of the other cooked ROMs on this site, you should have an exe file called RUU_wrapper.exe.
Now, install WINRAR and right click on the dopod rom and choose extract and it will extract various files, one of which will be another exe file. Extract this exe file again and you should end up with a file RUU_Signed.nbh - this is th only file you'll need out of the lot.
You can delete all the other files from the dopod ROM now, just keeping the RUU_signed.nbh. Copy the RUU_wrapper.exe file into the same folder and run it and you will flash the dopod rom to your phone nicely - just make sure you're HARDSPL first!
Now, you could be even smarter at this point and use dutty's good nbhtool if you like to "unwrap" RUU_signed file and remove the IPL \ SPL (though with HARDSPL, I'm not sure this is necessary) and the Radio part if you like (and the boot splash screens if you're so inclined and then use it to wrap it all back up again.

How to I install NFSFAN's Bell ROM??

I have downloaded the RAR file, but after taking a look at it I can see that it is not like any ROM updates provided by Bell. Can anyon some instruction or point me to another thread that explains this??
Thanks

1)after you download it just extract the file in a new folder
2) Then goto that folder and u will "ROMUpdateUtility" double click on that.
3) just follow the instructions that appears on your computer screen after.

I'm thinking he probably doesn't have WinRAR.

loll thenn ill add another step:
4) download WINRAR and extract the files.
then follow my other other steps.

Do the CDMA Roms require a HARDSPL to flash them? I want to flash a CMDA NSFAN Rom to my friends Vogue and I dont see an stickies for flashing a CDMA rom. I normally spend most of my time in the Kaiser/Raphael Forums.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Daniel

So I just did a ton of research on the web because the wiki is useless and might as well not exist.
I am using a Sprint HTC Touch with the official Sprint WM6.1 ROM from HTC.
So after my research, this is what I got (Please correct me if I am wrong):
1. Run 2.31.Coke and unlock the phone via USB/ActiveSync
2. Download NSFAN's latest Sprint WM6.1 Rom and extract to desktop
3. Rename ROMFILE.nbh to voguimg.nbh
4. Copy voguimg.nbh to MicroSD card that has been formatted to FAT32
5. Insert MicroSD card in phone, and enter bootloader via holding down the Power/Camera/Reset buttons all together.
6. Flash ROM
7. Hard Reset Phone
8. Enjoy
So to the everyday flasher here on the Vogue forum, are these steps correct? And if so, why dont you take the time to update the wiki so people dont have to ask the same repetitive question 1000 times?
I just cant believe that this forum has zero ROM flashing stickies, or and updated wiki.
Either way, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again,
Daniel

You are correct, but you do not need to do steps 3 thru 5. After you extract the ROM on your desktop simply doubleclick the RUU utility and it will update your ROM. (you must still be connected via USB to computer) If you want to flash from your storage card instead then do steps 3 thru 7.

I have a bell phone,
and the color screen says .36 and Security Unlocked.
do i have to unlock the phone still ?
its a bell phone, and it was like that when i got it.
does this mean its unlocked?

By the way, who needs WinRAR when you can get 7-Zip, the best all-around file compression/decompression tool around! And it's free. Opens almost anything out there all in one program.
http://7-zip.org/

hey..
i just had a quick question.. is it possible to switch back to the original BELL rom after you upgrade to NFS rom? i know a lot you might think why would you even wanna do that? But I was just wondering just incase..

Absolutely very easy just flash it like the instruction of a stock rom would require you too

[Q] Error [240] file open This is STUPID

I Read and Read and Read. The surprising part is that, what I need the most there is no video nor any instruction to fix the problem.
I'm trying to flash a ROM on my tilt 2 GSM phone.
I have already HSPL it,
I did task 29 using RhodiumWAdvancedRUU.zip because I couldn't get regular task 29 to work.
Now I get a white screen with HTC on it and it doesnt pass it. So I enter bootloader and make sure that at the bottom it shows USB. (yes I do see SPL-0.85. OliNex)
Now I try to install the ROM and here is where the problem starts.
My ROM:
I dled NRG MAXSENSE ROM which is Energy.RHODIUM.29022.Sense2.5.MaxSense.Jul.08.7z
My Rhodium Update Utility (RUU) is
Rhodium_CustomRUU_v1.1.zip
I Open it and I see
CustomRUU.exe
Here is where I don't know what to do. Some instructions say that I need a .NBH file. Where do I get this file. They say it should be with my ROM.
All I get when I dl the ROM is
Energy.RHODIUM.29022.Sense2.5.MaxSense.Jul.08.7z
Format 7z not .nbh
I get the Error [240] File Open when I run CustomRUU.exe. To fix it they say
"When this error message appears, check whether the downloaded image is placed in the DIRECTORY of RUU. If, for some unknown reason, you find that the ROM image is not located in the RUU folder, you have to download the RUU and retry again."
What is the "DIRECTORY" of RUU"? Whats a directory? I never heard that term before.
Of which RUU? CustomRUU.exe?
Do I make a folder and put CustomRUU.exe in it with the Energy.RHODIUM.29022.Sense2.5.MaxSense.Jul.08.7z ?
Where is the .nbh file? Do I rename the ROM IMAGE to .nbh?
Please give me step by step. Ive read so much already and I dont know what to do anymore. Thank you for your help.

-___- I cannot believe I spent all this time for something so dumb. We should put this on the Help for NOOBS thread. The file " .7z " cannot be opened with Winzip. To open the file you have to use WINRAR. And from there we can see the Rhodium_SoftwareUpgrade.exe (RUU) and the RHODIMG.nbh files. And double clicking the Rhodium_SoftwareUpgrade.exe the software will start walking you through the process for flashing. I think it would be a good idea to add on the HOW TO FLASH A ROM that the 7z file requires WINRAR to be opened.
But thanks to the Lord I learned how to flash the Rom successfully.
