Hello there,
I'm trying to help out a friend - he has his MDAIII stuck in the bootloader from a crashed ROM Upgrade.
I am familiar with the ROM upgrade process but I don't know what the Country Code ID is for his device. It is the T-Mobile Branded MDAIII which he bought from eBay.
If anyone has this type of phone could they please find out this info please. You can do this by running the attached file on your device. Then please post the text out of the file stored in \windows\DeviceData.txt (this too is on your device).
Can anyone help me/my mate?
Thanks,
Dom
FYI: Man has the same problem

UK country code
I ran the GetDeviceData on my T-Mobile UK MDAIII and it returned this:
PH20B 0 B ENG G T-MOB005 1.06.00 0 0 1.06.117 1.00.00 00.00
So I guess the country code is T-MOB005. :?

How it worked for me
I had the same problem...
http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showpost.php?p=490144
I downloaded the ROM Update from the Siemens Website and tried to update my new SX66 (Just purchased from Cingular on the 10th, on an AT&T plan and SIM card still)
When I ran the update I received the Error:
"Error 120: Country ID Error XHWOF568-XHWOF568-50-50-50. The ROM image that you are trying to use is not designed to work with your device. Please check the Vendor Website and download the correct ROM update"
I contacted Siemens & they replied with: "Version 1.14.110 is the original version, and 1.33.110 is the updated version for Cingular customers.
If your version is 1.32.115, then you have the AT&T variant and your SX66 already has the latest ROM version installed. If you have any other version that is not listed and you get this error, then the update does not pertain to your version of phone."
So what does the error really mean? I've seen the Fix to add the line to the RUU.conf file, but unsure as to what the error really is telling me.
So do I have an Old phone? Should I return it and get a Cingular Plan Phone? Others at my office have the Cingular Plan/SIM SX66 and can install the 1.33.110 ROM with no issues...
If I install the 1.40.00 ROM will it work with my AT&T variant?
I'm still under my 30 days with Cingular to return the phone.
Thanks!

Thank you for your reply. I have been to the wiki.xda-developers.com website and have seen the work around for this.
I'm curious as to the ramifications of changing the Country ID if I have issues with the phone in the future if/when I change to a Cingular SIM/Plan
Thanks,

The work arounds of the Country code ID and Carrier ID are only to insure that you can flash your device with a rom that is not from your carrier.
The Idea of the carriers is not to produce an Upgrade of a rom and let other non same carriers users flash that. (well thats there idea)
This we don't like as most carriers don't provide the upgrades or if they do not in a language that you want them.
----> Hence the tool that FIXES that small issue.
The CE and radio rom is the same across all version,
Its the EXT rom that has the meat in it thus it needs to be cooked.
If you have issues with your device that you can't solve with a rom upgrade or cooking then you need to be able to flash the Providers rom back onto it.
This gives the Techys in the shop the warm feeling that the phone has not been messed with.
I have a baked rom, all three components are from different sources, it was shipped in Germany in German, is now WWE Rom and has swiss Sim.
If I need to take it back to Geramany I flash a T-mobile upgrqade on it and I am off.
Hope this helps
Hi,
I just bought a year old T-Mobile MDA111 from Germany and need to change the operating system to WWE. I downloaded the Getdevicedata.exe file but cant seem to get it to work (probably since i dont understand german!). I tried copying it to ( \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\XDA-Tools\ ) but couldnt find \XDA-tools. Even when i saved it in programs and ran it from there it did not work.
I managed to figure out the following though:
Model: PH20B
Language: GER
Oerator code: T-MOB 101
ROM: 1.06.01
Ext. ROM: 1.06.115
Radio: 1.00.00
Could anyone help me!!
Re: I've read the Getting Started section but im still stuck

I managed to find the DeviceData.txt which gave me the following - PH20B O B GER R T-MOB101 1.06.01 01 1.06.115 1.00.00 00.00
I have now downloaded the following : BA_TMUK_14200_112_11300_Ship
I also managed to use editfix.bat to edit the correct details and i dont think i saw any errors.
BUT.... once i tried running BAUpgrade, i got this error - Radio Image file checksum error
What now??
The 1.42 rom that you downloaded is a type II rom thus the editfixbat will not work (you will get an ERROR in the dos window).
The best is just follow the upgrage instructions of the 1.42 rom as per wiki, it will work and you will end up with a WWE device that is branded by that operator.
Then all you need to do is play in wiki the extended rom kitchen.
Thanks,
Since that post, i tried updating to the current German T-Mobile ROM and this was successful.
Do you think i would be able to manage just the same if i download the Dutch or UK version and work with those? I am currently downloading the following:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_11300_SHIP/BA_TMNL_14200_115_11300_Ship.exe
Dear MDA111user, i hate bothering people but you seem to be the one who can really help me!
I followed the upgrade instructions as per wiki as you told me but i am still getting errors. Do you know which would be the best ROM to use since i need to change language from GER to WWE?
For your info the current status of my MDA111 is as follows:

Last know Offical update:

Offical web downlaod site:

Last know upgrade that worked
As above
Upgraded on:
19.01.2006
There is no BEST rom, some of us like the 1.31 others 1.40 and others the 1.42. Can't tell you what to do only what I have done, and I have had them all.
Can't help you on the errors unless you tell me what they are. The wiki update page is tried and tested and works, well did for me and many others.
The getting started was written based on Type I roms, Now we have type II and we bypass the county code error with the MA_noID....exe file.
So if you want more help you need to tell us what you have done and what went wrong.

Hi,
I need a little help with selecting the correct ROM
PH20B 0 B WWE O2___001 1.40.00 0 0 1.40.176 1.12.00 12.00
My phone is O2 but on the page of known blue angels the only O2 there are Malaysia and uk and im in Australia, do u just select the uk one?
Also the phone is always asking for a sim unlock code, i have tried the sim unlock http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Unlock_Sim and does not work in my case, thats why im trying to change to wm6.
Anyway any help would be great thx.
Paul.
Xtrange...
BTW you need to follow the upgrading wizard that is on the wiki...
IU think BA was unlocked SIM by default...
In case you are wondering about the Wizard that +Que PPC is talking about, this is it
