G3 or G4? Why no info? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Hello all,
i'm trying to upgrade my jasjar to wm6, just downloaded Wizard Service Tool and clicked on "enab. rapi + unsigned". Then "device info" and i have obtained this report:
--------------------------

Question: it's normal that a lot of fields are empty? IPL and SPL especially?
I'm sure to have a "G3" even if IPL is empty?
...and someother generic question:
ROMS are all interchangeable? If i want to try another wm6 rom, can i reflash?
ROMS contains all languages, or if i want to retain ITALIAN i have to search for an italian ROM?
Thanks very much!

you can reflash as many times as you want and languaje can be anyone you like
<Good luck,

Thanks but the real question is why wizard utility dont show a lot of information: if there is something "strange" or locked on my device, i can get unpredictable results going ahead with reflashing procedure... i think.

I have the same problem with my Universal.
I flashed it with Tomal's 8.2 without trying Wizard service tool, 'cause Uni arrived me with wm6.0, so I thought it was unlocked.
Now I'm going to flash a friend of mine original G3, and looking for how to unlock it, I found some apps that I tried on mine.
The message I receive on Wizard Service Tools is similar to yours, also when I check CID it says that the cheksum is incorrect:
-----------------------------------------
Decrypted stored sum: 2020202020202020
Decrypted calcd sum: CB2C31FAACFE5801
Checksums did NOT match!!
Could not determine a key index to decrypt it.
Your CID block must be corrupted or file isn't
from a valid CID dump!!
Aborting operation.
-----------------------------------------
Question is: may I use this program to superCID the G3 Uni?

looking for upgarde for the xda2i

I have a xda2i with the following info
ROM version 1.10.00 WWE
ROM date 12/24/04
radio version 1.00.00
protocol version 1337.39
ExtRom 1.10.124 WWE
I am looking a for a upgraded version if anyone can help... it would be great if there was a wa to get rid of the o2 custom stuff on the xda too i dont like that too much can anyone help
Acid
At the moment there are no updates for the XDA2i but there is rumours of one in the pipelines... if its true or not remains to be seen but we can only hope.
As for removing the customised crap just do a hard reset (you'll loose all your stuff) , press power + reset.
Then when its installing a box will appear asking "Personal" or "Corporate" user, choose the corporate option and enter the password "0506"
hi
at the moment the only newer rom from our factory rom is that of pda2k.. do a search for my posts and in there you will see where to get it and how to get past the country id error..
Danny-B- I didnt see the box will appear asking "Personal" or "Corporate" user it just says will customize my xda in 3 seconds and i cant do anything to stop it and i cant even uninstall the software it is linked into everything.. its really annoying and this o2 thing is just eating up memory and space... can you help
Acideax
I have a xda2i with the following info

Are you sure you didnt miss it ?
Im sure it auto installs personal user if not selected within a certain time.
The best thing to do would be, Hard reset it, then just sit and watch it install till it gets to the choice point.
Another thing that might be slowing your device down can be the SD card if its over 512Mb , the XDA 2i sems to have a slight problem with them and slows everything down, well it does in my case anyway.

XDA2i & WM2005 ?!?
HI !
I´m using the XDA2i / O2-Germany with WM2003SE..
ROM 1.11.01GER
Ratio 1.03.00
Protokoll 1337.42
ExtROM 1.11.132GER
I´ve tried to upgrade to WM5 but...
HimaUpgradeUt.exe 1.2.0.0
nk.nbf 1.50f
WM 2003 ROM Image Editor 1.4.26
the firste tries I´ve got ERROR: wrong device, so I changed the devicetype from PH10 to PH10C like written on start-settings-deviceinformations...
I´ve tried again...
I started HimaUpgradeUt.exe and after a few sec. the screen say´s "deviceinformations: XXX
XXX

Image info´s XXX
.....
if I press UPGRADE the massage "don´t remove USB & power" appiers then a new screen with the status for the upgradeprocess....
BUT... after 20 sec. I always get ERROR 101 (connectionerror).
- any idea ?
The XDA2i does not support the leaked WM2005 it only works on the XDA 2
Although the devices look the same the internal hardware is different.
The XDA2i does not support the leaked WM2005
sad to hear that...
ok, thank you but do you know if it´s possible to get an upgrade in the future ?
do you know where the problem is? (Image ore Updatesoftware?)
???!!!
The problem is that the software (wm2005) has to be custom made to suit the hardware in the phone so ... HTC - the makers of the phone or O2 would have to "build" the software for the phone.
Its because all the correct drivers and such have to be correct for the device to function.
But you never know, it might be a possible upgrade in the future, youll just have to wait and see.
Upgrade for XDA2i
Ok, I´ve found an original Upgrade-Tool & the Rom-files from o2UK....
My next Problem is the Password to edit the nk.nbf to chage the Image...
I´m using WM 2003 ROM Image Editor 1.4.26
Xda IIi ROM v 1.10.124 (43.6MB) - english
AlUpgradeUt.exe 2.0.0.1
when I start the upgrade I always get the
"ERROR 120: COUNTRY ID ERROR".... that´s because I have the
o2 - Germany device...
Can somebody help me to findout the right password for the Rom-editor ?

Hi,
I changed my MDA Pro to the Qtek-Rom and the Radio to the 1.04.10
If you do so, also the language will be changed (from German to English) and the Keyboard-Layout ((Quertz to Querty) which you can resolve with some registry-hacks).
My device is running more stable and has more memory (Qutek is without any branding)

and after that change some keys.
is it possible to explain me execly what i have to do because i am not familiar whit this software changing
you would help me allot
cheers
Will be no problem to help you - but this way I need some details:
Which kind of keyboard do you have? QWERTZ or QWERTY (look at your keyboard ant the first 5 letters are important).
You've to download the following files:
UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe
MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
radio_1.4.10.zip
which all can be found at the ftp-server of the developers
ftp://[email protected]/Universal/
but you've to look in all folders (Roms + shipped Roms)
Make a new folder on your PC (maybe update)
Use WinRar to expand "UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe" to this folder
Copy "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe" to "update"
Delete the radio.nbf in "update"
Expand "radio_1.4.10.zip" to "update"
REMOVE every card from your MDA (SD + SIM)!!!
Connect your MDA
Run "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe"
if there is an error (mostly language...) run "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe" again without changing everything!
After the update-prozess, you don't have to disturb the installation of the programs (it's only usefull stuff, no branding).
Change the key-respons from QWERTY to QWERTZ:
Use a registry-program like resco explorer with registry add-in and change the following key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
change: Layout from 66569 to 66567
You can also change the soft-keyboard, but I'll tell later because I've to go!
Good luck!!!
Teja
if you got
Now at home with MDA Pro:
Here is the link how to change the symols in the soft-keyboard:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=34398
Some things cannot be changed in the soft-keyboard but that's no matter!
Have a nice weekend,

Hello Teja,
The site you give here requires password.
I looked here:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/
But can't find the mentionned files.
Other thing did you perform a backup of your original ROM? If yes how?
Thank you
No, I didn't perform a backup, and I think it isn't possible at the moment.
Here are the direct links. Hope they'll work:
ftp://xdaupload:[email protected]/Universal/MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
ftp://xdaupload:[email protected]/Universal/ROMs/radio_1.4.10.zip
ftp://xdaupload:[email protected] ROMs/UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe
Maybe you should copy the whole links in your browser and it'll work. I use firefox 1.5 and I'm able to browse on the ftp-server...
Have a nice week and good luck!
Teja
Thank you!
Hello Teja,
Those links are working fine.

Sorry I made a mistake: I gave you the link for a old radio-update...
Here is the correct one (I also edited my post):
ftp://xdaupload:[email protected]/Universal/ROMs/radio_1.4.10.zip
If you've allready done the updates, you can make the radio-update without loosing any datas:
rename all *.nbf to *.old and copy the new radio-file in your update-folder. Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe (maybe twice) again.
The MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe will only show the radio-update!
Just do it - after finishing, soft-reset your device (no hard-reset is necessary).
Enjoy the new update!
Teja
hee teja the first letters are qwerty and i have a mda pro tmobile simlocked
Ihave everything downloaded also the resco.
i don,t have to worry a bout stuck in the bootloader and things??
i,ll have to work so i am gonna give it a try tommorow.
thanks again 8)

Hey,
I first felt into Boodloader-Modus, but it was my own fault. It took a long time to solve the problem, but it was very easy:
REMOVE ALL CARDS FROM YOUR DEVICE! SD + SIM!
My one was "Net-Locked" and I've never heard about problems with "Sim-Locked" (but I always was not interested in)...

Error while radio/complete update
Hi,
today i tried to update the radio on my mda pro:
- I removed the SD and the SIM card.
- I did a reset
- I started the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe 2 times
- the upgrade started but stayed on 0 % for 5 minutes
- then it stopped with an error and I still got the original version
I tried this 3 times and I even tried to do a complete update as it is suggested here and always got the same error message.
Can this be because of active sysnc, the virus scan program or the cable (although it is the original cable)? Do I need Active Sync for the upgrade or can I stop it somehow?
Hi,
it is suppost to close "Active Sync" (by Task-Manager) and to disable the firewall / antivirus, but I never had problems without doing so...
Is your MDA in BL-Modus when you want to update (blank screen) or is it still in "normal" modus?
Maybe you've the possibility to use an old computer/notebook without any programs running on?
Teja
Radio update problems
Hi again,
it is in blank screen mode - but if you look very closely (the backlight is off) the screen sys something like updating radio... please wait.
and what happens?
nothing happens - just an error after 5 minutes
I tried it with the bootloader mode afterwards and then it worked with the radio update. afterwards i tried the full update with bootloader screen - but it only worked the second time...
It's written in this topic that you've to run the update 2 times ==> so it works perfect! Congratulations!
Teja
Teja, thanks for your mini howto guide above. I am now installing the Qtek rom on my MDA Pro.
However you should realise that only germans use QWERTZ keyboard layout, the dude who started this topic is dutch, so am I, we use QWERTY. So the info on that part is somewhat useless.
But thanks again

upgrading WM5 on asus a632n (636, 632, 636n)

hi all!
i have my pda asus 632n in Chiniess language, need to change it to english at least. the pda's rom is V03.0616.00 CHS 0804. Red big ammount of forums, but those advices which were found don't fit new rom v.30616. On support.asus.com there are some roms for asus 632, but more older version (v.30607) Tried to hack upgrade tool.exe as some people offered, but nothing solved.
For info: the last rom for such as asus 63x goes with two files Update.cap 38,1 mb and Upgrade Tool.exe 19,5 kb. The last one is a romloader - checks language, version of current pda's rom before upgrade. The solution of upgrade is: format SD to FAT, put files above into root of prepared SD, plug SD into pda, execute upgrade tool.exe
When i do such way without hacking upgrade tool.exe, i'm told as language not match! if i hack upgrade tool.exe, then there is "your version is more older then pda's one" on the screen.
There was the thread in http://www.wormholecreations.com.au/wc/megabbs/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=3969&start=81&posts=99, followed right direction of this topic, but it's holded for now
According to my expirience and words of others there is two ways to solve the problem:
1. Wait until new rom upgrade from asus support for v.30616 (may takes much time)
2. hack upgrade tool.exe to remove notice about version
Anyway, does anybody have expirience in hacking plz help to resolve the problem. I guess there are many people who you would help to!
any news, guys?

weltom's problem now solved, but it was a little tricky
It should be no problem to flash to english from russian or to polish from german, etc, just follow link above.
Erorrs may occure with chineese firmware and may be some other asian ROMs due to different file structure for such ROM-images.

Let me honestly thank oneiros eidos much for his help!! We have to help each other, that's why ask questions here and we altogether solve problems, or try at least.
Can you make it work with the latest update? The one that upgrades to WM6.
Thank you!
I'm receiving a lot of "can you patch that new upgrade tool"-letters.
Sorry, but, now, when i have already sold my A636... No, i can't.
Without device, i can't test my assumptions about "may be that way it will work", so i stopped trying to do anything with new "upgrade tool" utils.
Also, Asus have changed some things in their "upgrade tool", so old methods became useless.
The only thing, that i may advice to all, who really wants to patch that new upgrade tool, is to get latest version of IDA (Interactive Disassembler) and try to do it by yourself (or, may be, some of your frinends, who more skilled in such things).
P.S. As another option for some devices: first flash it from WM5 to WM5 with desired language, then flash to WM6. The only problem here is to find that old WM5 firmware.
Thanks for your reply to this forum Oneiros.
I've just downloaded IDA Pro v.5 and will try to dissassemble the latest Upgrade Tool by myself. I used to do lots of disassembling on PC platform, but never on XScale ARM platform. I just pray it is not that different from the one I know.
I will post my findings here...
Also guys, if you have links to old WM5 firmwares for A632, 636 and especially 639 (the model I have) if you could post them here, that would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Sasovics
Folks,
I managed to download IDA Pro v5 and I was able to disassemble the old Upgrade Tool (for WM5) and I got the the same offsets as "oneiros eidos" mentioned on his web page, and manage to change the instructions to bypass the mentioned checks, but unfortunately I am not able to disassemble the new Upgrade Tool.exe. Either Asus has protected their file in some way or my disassembler doesn't do the job for this file.
If anybody has a suggestion, let me know.
Best Regards,
Sasovics
Little something about language check in new "upgrade tools".
If you look at disassembled executable, you'll see two interesting registry paths:
HKLM\nls\SystemLCID
HKLM\nls\DefaultLCID
I assume, that if you change both of them them to 1033 (english) with any hex editor, (may be Resco Explorer registry plug-in), and then try to flash, it may work.
Don't forget to write down the old value and restore it, if i'm not right.
Hi all
I tried to modify the registry values with Resco Explorer plugin, changed them to 1033 and restarted the PDA. It doesn't work. This is the message I see : "Open Upgrade image file Error".
Tested on A636N.
Greets.
Hi again
In fact, it partially works. You don't have to reset your PDA or the values you've just modified will be restored. Files have to be placed at the root of the SD card.
Then, when I launch the updater, I see a progress bar and my pda is reseted and restored to factory defaults
So it just reset your device but didn't upgrade to WM6?
Yes it does. I launch the updater, then I briefly see a page with a progression bar and it resets to factory defaults.

How did you get around the "invalid model ID"?
Did the trick with pof's SPL 1.11 work as suggested by johnnylavah?
Or did you just spend money to IMEI check?
It certailnly worked on my non-supercided HTC S620. If your device is HTC S620 regardles or the OS language it will likely accept update.no supercidding is required. DASH handsets would likely require CID unlocking for this upgrade to work.
1. run bootloader upgrade ( well, downgrade) first
2. run rom updater
This is "IU BUILD. TEST ONLY!" ROM.
Anyways...to get your English back after the ROM is upgraded:
Start --> Settings (Настройка) --> press 7 --> press5:
now, in the top most combo box (Кодировка) :
select UK or US English and press left soft button to confirm
in the next combo box select 3rd from the top entry: English Australia (Английский Австралия) and press left soft button to confirm
now, press left soft button 4 times to confrim that changes will become effective after soft reset.
At this stage you may power cycle you Excalibur
CE OS 5.2.1238 (Build 17745.0.2.3)
Radio: 4.1.13.44_02.94.90
Model Name HTC-S620
P.S. You do not need to do anything about QWERTY keyboard layout. It's just plain standard QWERTY after the language settings are applied.
And just in case if you do not like default green colour of the home screen, there is one called WIndows Default available that looks a bit more attractive to me

So, just another beta ROM...
Nevertheless it's good to know that HTC is still working/testing WM6 for S620! Hope the final version will appear soon!
Dang - No go for my UK S620 either :-(
Is this an original HTC ROM without any branding?
Are there many differences to the T-Mobile WM6 (exept for the branding)?
Yes, original HTC, no extra branding. no extra bloatware. This ROM is very different to T-Mo DASH WM6 ROM. Much, much better this one. Great improvements accross the board.
Is it possible to go back to the WM5 ROM if the WM6 doesn't work out? If so how do you do that?
Upgraded fine S620 WM5 -> WM6
Hi all.
I have just upgraded from from WM5 on a CID unlocked S620 and all seems to be working fine.
Getting out of Russian is a little tricky, but following the steps in this thread worked fine.
TomTom works (as well as it ever has on WM5/6), UK Vodafone GPRS works, Hotmail and Exchange email working, Google Maps runs OK.
No obvious issues or bugs so far.
General performance seems to be comparable to the last WM5 ROM.
Cheers,

ahhh ! i tried it too - i have a htc s621 from rogers so i'm guessing it's because it's not CID unlocked? it says ERROR [294] Invalid Vender ID -any fix to this?
securegsm, can you help us out - the ones who are getting the error, my phone's app unlocked but it's locked to rogers. i tried 2 times but i keep getting the same error. how did you get around this? is your phone unlocked already or it's locked to some provider - if it is, how'd you get around the invalid id? i tried it - it didn't work for me

How to remove region ID protection to a ROM

Hi guys, I have an HTC Diamond P3700 (DIAM110 64M) and I cannot install any of the HTC 2.03 official roms. I already ran OLIPRO unlocker (dev Hard SPL, Sim Unlock, Security Unlock). I'm trying to run any of the official 2.03 ROMS (tried europe, ME, hong kong) but nothing works. I CAN flash any cooked rom (running AZTOR v10) but I still would like to know how to install any official 2.03 ROMS.
I get the always handy error 244 invalid model ID so it makes me think of invalid region ID issue.
Any pointers greatly appreciated.
You answers will most likely be found here....

Update stops at 5%/Invalid Model ID is displayed
Short answer: The model ID hardcoded in the ROM image doesn't match the ID of your device. Read on for a fix.
Long answer: Don't Panic. Your Device isn't broken
Each Diamond Model has it's own ID. My German MDA Compact IV is a DIAM200. Other models are DIAM150/DIAM300/DIAM100....
Now ROMs might be configured to be flashable to a specific Model ID only, even though technically they would work fine on any Model ID.
In that case the ROM needs to be "reconfigured" - this process works for full ROMs as well as Radios.
* If you are running a foreign Version of Windows or have Regional Settings other than English US configured, please set them to English U.S. temporarily. Otherwise NBHUtil will not function correctly.
* First you'll need OliPro's NBH Util (0.92 works for the Diamond).
* Fire it up, switch to "Extract NBH"
* Select the nbh of the ROM/Radio to be flashed and hit Go
* Extract the components you need. Radio/Splash/OS. If there's an SPL in there, you can safely discard/ignore it. You have HardSPL for that.
* Make note of the Target CID, Version, Language and Chunk Size. FYI the Model ID is the problematic setting here. If it says DIAM10000 and you have a DIAM300 you're screwed.
* Switch to the Build NBH tab and select the Diamond as target
* Note how the Model ID is preset to DIAM*****. The wildcard allows any device
* Change target CID, Version, Lang & Chunk size to the values you wrote down.
* Select each saved component under the NBH items
* Hit Build NBH and save the file as RUU_signed.nbh to a folder of your choice and flash it with the DiamondCustomRUU.exe or ROMUpdateUtility.exe
* Donate to OliPro because he just made your device useful
This is not the case
Update process stops at 1%. I already read that forum at usually you would think of HARD SPL issues, but not. I can flash cooked roms (I'm running AZTOR v10). That's why I'm thinking of region ID protection.
hmm....yes, yes, perhaps.
Ok, well I will see if there are any other post on this outside of this forum.

that error is nothing to do with regionid
however if you flash a rom with high regionid protection, and your device is not from matching region you have to patch the rom, for older roms in 1 place, for newer ones in 2 places. I can give more info if anyone requests it, also I made a patcher for nk.exe (1st patch is in nk.exe), that does it automatically
PS: I noticed you mention mainly english roms. well, english language roms usually never have it. russian and chinese language roms tend to have this

probably these roms are DIAM100**
your diamond is DIAM110 so you want a rom with DIAM110** or DIAM***** modelid
cooked roms are usually DIAM***** and stock roms aren't.
so do what band27 said.
is there a prob if my model id is DIAM100 and nbh [email protected] extract nbh i get DIAM10000?
i get this model id from the nbh @ the official ROM downloaded with my sn
