You need to get someone with same G3/G4 of Wizard to dump his/her Wizard ROM to the card using mtty.
ok and how i dump it can u help me or give me a site where i can read how to do it i know that the only way is reading but if you can give me a site than you are the man/woman :d
i am using qtek 9100 g3 if some one could find my the file or give me a place or a link where i could/can find it i would be sooo happy my phone is dead i can use it and i realy miss it so please
sry for the mistakes on the last post i am waisted
What you need is a MiniSD of at least 128MB (NOTE - All existing data inside will be wiped), the mtty program, and 2 CID-unlocked Wizard (One is your wizard, other is the wizard that dump ROM, both MUST be CID-unlocked first).
mtty can be downloaded at http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=9864
To dump the ROM, first kill the wcescomm.exe process on your PC or disable USB connection in ActiveSync.
Then restart the healthy wizard in BootLoader mode (Camera+reset), run mtty.exe and select \\.\WCEUSBSH001 as port.
After connected, enter "r2sd all", then ALL ROMS (IPL, SPL, Radio, OS) will be dumped to the card (If you only want OS, you may issue "r2sd os" instead).
After the USB> prompt returns, the operation complete. Put the card in your Wizard and reboot it, then it will have a prompt telling you to press a key for SD recovery, follow the instruction then it should be fine.
tnx my man your the best now i need a second wizard tnx
Search for OS dump for installing from sd-card
He man,
I have the same problem. After trying to get a dutch WM6 in my Wizard I ended up with a white HTC screen with the IPL/ SPL radio and OS (prophet 3.0xxxx) listed.
Don't know what happened: i was only surfing while loading the new OS!
So could somebody post his ROM (dump) so we can load from SD-card?
Thanx in advance!!

Its not possible to post any 'dump' rom or upload it,you can only make a dump or back up your previous rom on to a miniSD card or sdcard to reflash it to your phone.Read and try to understand the method already described in the above post by starkwong
Cheers!
Read and understand
I did read and thought I understood.
So when you dump the Rom of a wizard on the (or a) sd-card you end up with files on this card isn it?
So I thought if I can use the dump of a second Wizard somebody could do this and post me those files. I would copy these to my sd-card (via explorer in a other device).
Then I was planning to stick this sd-card into my bricked Wizard.
It is the same procedure as Thankwong described, with the difference that i am copying the files to my sd-card.
If this will not work I do not undertsand why not...

Thats what not possible,its not possible to dump the rom on a sdcard and then post the file from a sdcard.only this is possible if you have a friend with a similar phone and he makes a dump of his rom on the sdcard and you insert it in your phone to back up that dump rom on your phone,ok
solved the problem.
Hi all,
I've got a great tip from a specialist! Here's what I did:
step 1: load the battery to the max.
step 2: Put the Wizard in Bootload ( pressing power and camera button, hold camera for at least 3 sec. until you have a 3-colour screen)
step 3: connect Wiwzard to pc with usb cable
step 4: Use Draven187's ROM (in my case the 3.12.2.0)
step 5: Chose Vista Rom update (though I have XP)
step 6: Follow instructions.
step 7: HAVE FUN
It worked in my case!
So despite you cannot connect to your phone the Vista update tool can connect and update the rom.
I'm no specialist so I'm not sure it helps in all cases...
ALL CREDITS TO: DRAVEN187!
nope still error 260
this aint working for me
0. Make sure phone is hard-spl first
1. Make sure SD card is formatted with fat-32
2. rename the image file (ruu_signed.nbh) to rhodimg.nbh, then copy that to the ROOT OF THE MICRO SD CARD, Insert card into phone
3. Set your phone in bootloader (Hold the "volume down" and hold the power on button until you see the tri-color screen.
4. Then follow the on-screen instruction
5. (OPTIONAL) -after flash, make sure to hardreset (pull battery, insert battery then hold green and red PHONE buttons (send/end) and hold powerbutton) follow onscreen instruction.
thanks for the info
I've tried the above and somehow it won't work on my TP2, it stays at "Serial" text in the white box, I'm assuming it already went past the SD slot then? Checking for the image.
I have the Energy rom loaded on the SD card, named as explained in the first post in this topic, it is placed in the root of the SD card, no folders or other files exist on that card. I removed the SIM card from the phone just to be sure. Is there anything I am missing, or is there anyone else who actually used this method to flash his or her device?
Info:
SPL: OliNex 0.85
ROM: |RHOD|6.5|ROM|WWE| ★ EnergyROM "Warhawk" (23016) ★ | Built Aug 21 |Manila 2.5 / 2.1|
SD Card: 4GB MicroSDHC (No brand on card, supplied with the branded T-Mo TP2 (Vario V)
Formatted: fat-32
Thanks
The nbh file needs to be in capital letters! RHODIMG.nbh
And step 5 isnt to be done until the "Tap screen to set up device" screen!
Just reset when your phone says Update successful!
And done, name changed to the correct format. No luck. Reformatting the card now to see if that changes anything. Update in a few.
And that too didn't work sadly. Either someone here notices I'm doing something wrong, or I'll just wait till I get near a machine natively running Windows Running Mac OS here so can't run the executable, and read that it's not quite a good idea to flash it from a virtual OS.

You will want to partition your card so the nbh image is in a partion of at the largest 1G, anything larger makes it hard for the phone to find and read the nbh file! I have a 1G card just for flashing and it works perfect! And it also may be the mac, they never play nice with windows!
It's not the mac screwing it up in this case as I am using a virtual Windows OS to work on the card. (MacOS leaves some folders on the card that I don't want on it)
Will try partitioning the card, cheers. I'll update when I know more. ANd thanks for the help ^_^
Update:
Partioned the MicroSD card to 0.5GB, no change sadly.
thanks for information
Ok, SD update worked now, however, step 5 won't go (Oh crap...) Have the grey screen with "Update Complete" and "UPDATE SUCCESS" However, it won't do anything if I hold down Send/End/Power at the same time for over 10 seconds. How long should that take normally? What's my best option right now? Can't see any other than to unplug the phone and take out the battary, however, will this brick it?

Thanks for the swift reply! Done it, it's booting up as I am typing this. Didn't quite have the guts to just do that without having read I could when flashing from SD. (Was unsure how the device would react to soft reset then a first booth with the SD present etc)
Anyways, rambling. Thanks!
these post are telling me how to flash while the rom is already on the phone, but i'm missing the step on how to get the rom file on the phone in order to move it to the sd card.......... how do i get the file to the phone? do i put it onto the phone from the computer or do i go to my browser on my phone and download it from there to the phone

Everything you need to know is HERE. I really suggest you fully read the instructions so you avoid bricking your phone by mistake.
In re: making sure you're hardspl'd first, does that still apply if you're flashing an official ROM? Or just for user cooked ROMs?
I'm about to update my Verizon TP2 with the newly released official 6.5 from verizon. I'm not hard spl'd, and honestly, know very little about that particular modification.
not for official
I dont think you have to be hard SPL'd for an official ROM. I think everything is included in the ROM package. (at least for T-Mobile it is)
btw the .nbh does not have to be named in all capitals. I have personally done it both ways with no problems at all. RHODIMG.nbh works just as well as rhodimg.nbh

Thanks for the quick response!
Sadly, the way the install file is set up to work, I can't get to the nbh file. It insists on installing that via an active sync connection. I was hoping it would extract from the exe and schedule it for active sync installation, then I could hunt down the ROM, copy it to my SD card, and run it from there.

hmm.. sorry for kicking this post, but you can unpack the exe-file with winrar. just grab the biggest file you can find (RUU_signed.nbh, and rename it to rhodimg.nbh), copy it to your root-folder (fast way for accessing bootloader is to also copy the "EnterBootLoader.exe" -file to your SD-card, and to start that file after copying both the files). Now just enter the bootloader, and it works! (don't be scared when the screen goes black for a moment, and the bootloader has reloaded. It's meant to do that )
I still have a little question by the way: is it possible to flash the hardSPL this way? or should i rename it to something else?
No, Hard SPL needs to be done from the PC as it checks IMEI online and IP address. You only get 1 licence, can ask for more or purchase more licences, but it can't be done any other way...

Yeah, it's a pity this has been done (though I understand why...)
My device cannot connect to PC anymore, so cannot use HSPL anymore!

Much obliged. I've actually been scared off the official vzw 6.5 because of issues upgraders have reported, but someday I'll put that to use.
i thought of re doing doloop's modd for TP2
and here it is fully tested to be working
now we can mtty our TP2 without having the need of MTTY and its drivers

SacTilt said:
Some of you are making this too difficult. I've posted this before, as this is all that needs to be done. Task29 does not remove your radio or your splash screen. It only clears the ROM, therefore, all you need to do is run Task29 and then flash your ROM. This is how I do it from the PC.
Connect to PC via Active Sync/WMDC.
Execute Task 29.
When phone boots to "Touch Pro 2" screen (or whatever your splash screen happens to be), I hold down the volume down button while hitting the reset button.
Once I'm on the Bootloader screen, and it shows "USB", I flash the new ROM from the PC as I normally would.
When the phone vibrates, indicating the ROM upgrade is complete, I disconnect the phone from the computer.

doloop said:
Hi,
I hex edited RomUpdateUtility.exe so it runs task 29 right after flashing ruu_signed.nbh
As every one understand this command format the rom,
Just unzip and run task29.exe . You may replace ruu_signed.nbh with the radio of your choice.
After the phone reset itself, your old rom will be gone, so it won't boot: binfs has been formated, your phone memory is clean.
You'll need to power up in bootloader mode (press vol down right after power key), then use the leocustomruu.exe provided with your favorite rom package, or flash it from memory card using standard procedure.

off course
when u flash a rom, you are copying files onto the internal memory (like duh!) but if u repeatadly flash different roms, sometimes files from older version stays behind as when u flash a rom, you just copy and sometimes overwrite files without deleting the older ones. hence at times these older files may create bugs\instability. hardrest donot always fix it.so we use MTTY
read this post to know what made me such a firm fan of mtty.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5898010&postcount=6085
but the thing is, mtty is and can be hard to use for new users. ... for me,, i was having the worst time installin the drivers needed to run mtty on win7 x64. so u i made this tool for me and for all

Is it possible to run this tool from mSD card, since my phone cannot connect to PC via USB?
bookmarked thanks Badwolve1
Thanks for simplifying this process agent_47. One question, can we do a backup using spb, then use the tool, reflash a rom and restore the backup? Or does the backup cause those possibly bad or corrupt files to be copied back to the device? Just wondering if I can save some time of setting the rom back up

How to flash new stock HTC ROM after Task 29?
Hey, just wondering how I would flash the new stock HTC rom after task 29, as it is just an exe file with no custom RUU?
Thanks!

The EXE is probably just an archive. Open it with your favorite archiving app (7-zip, etc) and you will see the NBH
So I would assume you shouldn't have to hard reset after flashing a rom if you first perform this internal format, correct?

I think he means can we just flash the nbh file from sd card instead of using the ROMUpdateUtility through USB.

Thanks much Agent_47. I only use the backup after I completely set up a rom the way I like it. That way I can quickly go back to that same setup if I have to (crashes or whatever the cause may be). ONLY on the same exact rom though, build and chef. And to make sure I understand, spb backup doesnt touch sectors of internal memory anyway (just reg entries and actual files) , so it shouldn't matter using a backup copy after using task29?
weird?
got a problem, i used the Task29 internal memory format tool from agent_47 to clean im internal memory. put the nbh file on a blank 2gb formatted sd card. put the card inside the rhodium, held down the vol down button and powered on, im in the boot loader but it hasnt progressed anywhere? the connection type says serial... any ideas?
when i just power on my phone, they only thing that shows is the ATT world phone image

[SOLUTION FOUND]
i took out the mSD card, loaded into bootloader, and when i plugged in the USB cable, it changed from serial connection to USB and let me flash from my system... ill poke around in the flashing thread for my mSD card issue...

Hello
After a couple of days of hunting a new update for my new phone, I got to a dead end.
After trying multiple ways (most of them are from here so I will post only 2-3 links): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732362 , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3695364&postcount=4 , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211 , the problem was the same. After sync and starting installation via USB (phone freezes) and SDcard (phone freezes automatically with starting Heret.exe) I don't know and really can't find a way how to remove WM6.5 (and put android) or someway update or install a fresh version.
I hope someone will be willing and able to help me with this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Dude, what *exactly* is your issue? From what I can see, you're trying to install android and it's not working for you..
Either way, first, format your SD before trying anything. See if that will get your phone to respond. If not, get a new one. The problem with SD cards is, when they fail (or get corrupted), it can cause your phone to "almost freeze". Instantly fixed by removing the SD. And booting the phone without it usually allows the phone to work normally.
The SD is brand new (4GB), and I also tried with 5 other SD cards (2 and 4 GB's).
I don't think it's to the SD card's, its more to the damn phone and I have no clue how to reinstall WM or put Android on it. And that the issue, how to prevent completely freezing while sync via USB and boot from SD card.
Hope you understand better now neocyke
Well, honestly dude, a T5388 is not exactly a TD2, so, what would work on an actual TD2 might not for you. Based on my experiences with clones, best is to flash with no SD in. Try visiting this thread and use the ROM there. Get the IDT flasher and work your way from there. Oh, and you might wanna remove Activesync or WM Device center before flashing.. Good luck with that..
As for android, installation for XDAndroid is the simplest thing in the world. Just unzip the FRX06 zip file to a folder (andboot is usually used). Take the topaz startup and put in the root of that folder (remember to edit as needed). Then copy *the entire folder* and dump it on the root of your SD. Run Haret from WM and that's it. Just wait for it to boot.. But then, this is assuming that your phone is supported by XDAndroid of course. You might wanna check that in the android dev section..

You have to install Hard-SPL first before installing custom ROM.
1. Go HERE to download X1_HardSPL_v1.zip, extract it to X1_HardSPL.exe on your PC
2. Run X1_HardSPL.exe and follow all steps in the RUU, and check on the device for prompts after PC shows loading bar.
3. Your phone should go to tricolour screen and say 0.52.OliNex.MFG (this is SSPL!).
4. After Hard-SPL flashes, your X1 will automatically reboots, job done.
5. To confirm you got Hard-SPL installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen) and verify the screen shows 0.72.OliNex
After finish installing Hard-SPL, you can now install your custom ROM. The most easy way for me:
1. Download your preferred ROM to your PC, the file extension of your ROM should be .nbh
2. Format your SD Card to FAT32 (Thanks ady_95. )
3. Change your ROM name to kovsimg, copy it to your SD card. (Thanks again ady_95 )
4. Turn off your phone, remove and reinsert the phone battery.
5. Press and hold first the volume down button on the phone and then the phone power button.
6. Continue holding the two buttons (volume down + power button) down until the phone display turns on and displays colored stripes, then release the buttons.
7. Your phone will search for the kovsimg.nbh file in your SD card. When it found, your phone will continue to update process.
8. Follow the instructions on your phone and let the update process running
9. When it was done, pull out battery and reinsert then turn on your phone, that's all.
Hope you understand and sorry for my grammar.
I will try your suggestion and will announce. Thank you.

I think you're wrong... the *.nbh file must be renamed to Kovsimg.nbh and your microSD card must be formatted in FAT32 (very important)
and then put kovsimg.nbh in root of your FAT32 microSD card
after that continue with step 3
Thanks for reminding, post corrected.
