T-Mobile MDAIII english Version hangs on Boot loader V2.01 - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hi to all,
after a few hours i read some posts for "how to upgrading" a MDAIII i give up.
I had to try update my englisch MDAIII from T-Mobile with the boot loader Version 2.01 to the actually german Update. the update fails, and now the MDAIII starts allways with the Boot loader. (first serial, and when i put it into the cradle with USB v2.01
So i will test some tips from this great forum, but nothing it works,
when i will update with a standard update file the display of my mda
displays Radio Stack update and my PC tell me after a while "please contact your Vedor for helping"
I have nothing idea how i become my MDAIII run again.
(With english or german OS)
normaly i think i must use the normal Update from T-Mobile?
But which? My MDAIII is english, but i don´t know it is come
from united states or from england or...???
can i update the boot loader to 2.06?
Now i´m very tired about this.,, uhhh i see im not a expert.. ;-)
Know´s anyone a solution to run my MDA again?
(i have not make a Backup before :-(((
best greetings to the far world!!

Thank you a7.
first all is the same problem. when i will boot the new firmware, the message diplays on my computer "please contact vendor for helping"
(at the first step from the update software - the radio update)
but:
i renamed the file radio_.nbf to radio_.nb
after restart the update utility the mda is flashing !!
but the radio version is now always old ;-)

U renamed radio_.nbf & it didn't flashed Radio.
I haven't seen that msg "please contact vendor for helping". May be u need 2 flash Radio 2 version 1.06, & then 2 1.06.02.

Thank you, i will try.. it later..
My phone Version is actually:
ROM-Version 1.22.01GER
ROm Datum 10/26/04
Radio Version 0.91.00
Protokoll Vers 1337.27
ExtRom 1.22.118 GER
I musst patch the keyboard layout again ;-)
(English MDAIII with now - german MDAIII Software) ;-)

puhh, tht is not very easy..
i cannot update the radio.
PH20B 0 B GER R 00000000     1.22.01 0 1 1.22.118 0.91.00 91.00
and bluetooth not work with Licence sold out...
sometimes i need a better english vocabulary.. sorry..

When always i become a problem with update the radio:
is this a problem of the old Boot loader Version 2.01?
or is this a another Problem?
can i fix this problem with update the MDAIII over SD Card?
Best greetings to all ;-)

Help upgrading O2 english XDA IIs

I have been all over this site and can not find a upgrade that works. I have rom version 1.31.00 WWE, Rom date 12/13/04, Radio 1.06.00 protocol 1337.38 extrom 1.31.139 WWE, PH20B. I am looking for a simple complete upgrade download. I have been reading all the instructions and I still have no idea what I am doing. I have download a number of version and they all come up with a language error. Sorry I just don't have a clue.
The Best and trouble free has been posted before, Look for the:
O2 Asia 1.4 ROM it comes with Radio 1.12 which you can update after.
Couple of points to help you on the way:
1- if the program (ba_o2asia_14000_923_11200_ship.exe) gives you device error, you need to extract the files and replace (BaUpgradeUt.exe) by (M)aUpgradeUt.exe) which is available on this site as well.
2- if you get device error don't disconnect just re-run MaUpgradeUt.exe again
it took me around 20min and my XDAiis is running like a dream
Hey ..... GOOD LUCK .....
I have change MaUpgradeUt.exe but is O2 mini.
Can not update .
What solution to do it.

However, I tried last night to make my XDAIII work with the 1.40.01 ROM, but no way to upgrad that ****. I read something about to use instead of the "BaUpgrade..." the "MaUpgrad..._noID.exe" because sometimes we got some problems with "Country ID Error". I supposed to use the MaUpgrade exe-File with the 1.40.01 ROM Update, the proggi ask me if I want to upgrad from 1.31 to 1.40 ROM vers. and Radio from 1.10 to 1.13 - click OK. done. XDA screen's backlight flashed off and "USB" stands at the top and the Version at the bottom. Ok... after a few sec. the update proggi said: ERROR 120: Model ID Error .... your device isn't designed to work with this patch.
I don't know what tha hell 's goin' on with that thing. Because many other guys in our forum already done this.
do the flash in 3 steps
1) 1.40.1 CE
2) Radio following wiki.
3) Flush the extrom
The 1.40.1 is a type II rom and the radio is a Type I.
Make sure you only use the files that are posted and dont mix them around.
You also might be having problems as your device has a differernt Version Number (that is if you have a camera) thus you need the MA tool.
Hi,
I've done it yesterday night/today morning. I downloaded the vodafone VPAIII update and the Maupdate, extracted the exe to folder and packed the maupgrade in it. started maupgrade "ERROR 120: Country ID Error", aight, "EXIT" started program once more, works ! Great, now I have the 1.40.01 GER ROM and the 1.13 RAdio Version.
And a fully Vodafone branded o2 XDAIII :lol: :lol:
I'll de-brand it today night and install some of the o2 CAB's. But at the moment I'm thinkin' to installe magneto - not sure because of the per4mance probl. :roll:
thx !

New Rom: Tmobile UK: BA_TMUK_14200_112_11300

http://t-mobile.iris-global.com/files/BA_TMUK_14200_112_11300_Ship.exe
Seems to have appeared as the FINAL offical release from t-mobile for uk users.
I've not tried it yet but the number does seem to suggest it is a slightly lower version than the Dutch one
EDIT MDAIIIUser
Added to wiki
no surprises
build of 2003se identical to Dutch rom previously released:
version 4.21.1088 (build 15159.2.6.4)
Extended rom just hasth changed regional settings (english UK default)
Added to wiki
Still a lot of echo.
Can't pair my Motorola HS820, BA sees the HS820, but error on connecting.
Anyone a fix for the echo and for the BT problem?
Use 1.40 before, was less a problem compaired to 1.42
Please help.

Report Back - T-Mobile Rom.. One week or so on..
Hi All,
Wanted to feedback my impressions of the new 1.42 T-Mobile UK Spec Rom..
Well, it's been interesting.. I now have (or have had) most of the faults that everyone else is experiencing.. I never used to get them at all with the i-mate 1.40 Rom or the NL 1.42 T-Mobile Rom.. I have listed the bugs below..
1 - One Hard-reset when inserted into GPS Car holder
2 - Several occasions where I've "lost" the Storage Card (when serching for it on the device AND through Active Sync)
3 - Interesting situation where I've started TomTom5 and I've suddenly had to go through the set-up process again only to be told that there's no maps (Can only attribute this to an occasion where the Storage Card is not seen by the PPC - See above).. Solved by remove Programs, soft-reset then re-install off SD Card.. (quite annoying as I was lost at the time!)
4 - Occasional failure for BT Headset being recognised on an in-coming call (I use the Logi-Tech Pro).. Solved by Soft-reset..
5 - Sometimes, after soft-reset, get a low performance from the Device.. ie, after soft-reset and switching to phone where it takes a few seconds to "build" the phone screen..
Strange but as I mentioned above, I don't recall getting these bugs on the 1.42 NL Rom or the i-mate 1.40 Rom.. I might try a hard re-set on Monday then re-install my tomTom, etc to see if it carries on.. If it does, I MIGHT switch back to the either :shock:
That's it really.. I have had the early T-Mobile 1.06, the i-mate 1.40, T-Mobile NL 1.42 and T-Mobile GB 1.42 and finally the WM5 Roms and from what I've seen, I place them in this order of preference..
1 - i-Mate 1.40
2 - T-Mobile NL 1.42
3 - T-Mobile GB 1.42
4 - WM5
5 - T-Mobile GB 1.06
Hi,
Updated to the dutch ROM, is better then this UK ROM.

Hi Max,
The Rom is exactly the same and the only difference is the changes in the extROM that makes it either UK or NL Spec (ie, MMS settings, etc)
Hi Starfish - Perhaps you need to look at this for the answers to your other questions:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueAngel_For_Beginners
Oh, and BA is "Blue Angel" and MA is the "Magician" HTC Names for the devices..

That's ok.. We all have to start somewhere.. 8)
Now, I'm not too sure how far advanced you are in Upgrading, etc but before you do, please remember the following that I put on another post on here..
MrPhilly said:
General Tips to you (and others)..
If you do want to update or upgrade then make sure you read everything through first.. Make sure you're happy in doing it.. Perhaps use the search function to read through others comments.. I would also recommend reading others comments about trying to downgrade from WM5 to WM2003SE to see what others have encountered
You will not believe the amount of people who end up posting questions when they've not followed the instructions from Wiki that I've pasted for you here..
Finally, if you are stuck, use the search command and describe your problem in the Keywords section, select Blue Angel from the Category and read through the posts relating to it before posting questions..
Hope this helps..?

How can I upgrade to a stable rom
I have tried the TMobile NL and UK version both give the Country ID eror with the extra numbers 17-17-38-38-38
How can I safely upgrade to the 1.42 version (I have read the Getting Started With The Blue Angel) .
Is that the way to go?

Upgraded to this from the last O2 update (my BA is an O2 Xda IIs), and while for the most part it works fine, now if the device turns the screen off for power-save while out and about, the GPRS connection drops. I know the hardware is capable of keeping the GPRS connection alive in such a situation because, well, it didn't drop it under the previous two O2 ROMs I ran.
Anyone else had this problem, or know a fix? Hopefully it's something simple that I've overlooked...
I'm getting better Bluetooth support with this (whether through actual improvements in the stack or through sheer dumb luck), so I'd prefer not to downgrade if I can avoid it.
Upgrade for NON OEM/Carrier Blue Angel
I have an unlocked OEM i-mate PDA2K. Because of this I am unable to install the T-Mobile upgrade to 1.42.
Is there a way to get around this?
I tried using the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe, but I was unsuccessful.
Any ideas on how to upgrade a non-T-mobile branded blue angel?
Thanks
problems upgrading a non-t-mobile branded PD2K
BELOW IS THE SCREENSHOT OF THE ERROR
Did you make sure you had the MAUpdate file in the same directory as the actual upgrade had been uncompressed into? Since it's missing the RUU.DLL file that is part of that package.
Basically, get the files out of the real upgrade, then copy the MAUpdate into that directory, then run it instead.
I can not unzip or unpackaged the shipped OS
When I double click on the file, it runs the file, when you right-click and select extract, it gives you an error.
How do you unpackage the ship package?
Me, I used WinZip, I think it was.
Can not unrar or unzip setup files from exe package
the instructions states:
Unrar or unzip all files in exe or rar into a new folder. I get an error when I do that.
I also noticed that the instructions states:
First Method (Quick/Easy) (TYPE II), but there is another method Second Method (Slower/Harder) (TYPE I)
I am going to give that a try

rom update error...it starts to flash but spits out a error?how can i fix that?
You have to be more precise. Rom you asked it made for Polish edition of MDA3 (for Era GSM network; ROM is in english). It won't flash without "a bit of fight" on any other device (because of CID check - for this ROM I think it should be T-MOB009). I don't know which country had T-MOB003, but it wasn't Poland/Era GSM.
Please tell us, what would like to get, we will try to help you.
If you just want to know how to get rid of CID-check problem, read wiki. There is information how to modify ROM file to your hardware CID and also you can find upgrade tool that skips CID check.
t-mob003 is nl..99% sure...
PH20B 0 B ENG G T-MOB003 1.06.00 0 0 1.06.118 1.00.00 00.00
this shuld be mine?!?i tried to remove the cid...nothin hapend
its t-mobile.nl btw but youre ms_ work'ed thou
only missing a radio
Can;t you just use official shipped upgrade for Tmobile NL? it's really new (as for WM2003).
From Wiki: T-Mobile NL; WWE; T-MOB003; 1.42.00; 1.42.119; 1.13.00;
You have even the best (for me) radio 1.13 (newest is 1.15, but I had some doubts about this one).
Link here: http://www.zshare.net/download/22756005f8e7c9/
Consider also upgrading to WM5.

Bluetooth: BT-PPC/PE Version 1.0.0 Build 1900
this is/was my original rom!
Step after step:
1. Error 120 (according to google) means country error - CID lock seems to work, and yout device just seems NOT to be T-Mobile NL; WWE; T-MOB003
2. For error 114 just use wiki and try to go through procedure desctibed there http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Radio_1.15_Upgrade and report results.
3. To load ROM to your device that isn't made for it, just use MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.42.00_Upgrade)
4. "why does BaUpgradeUt recognize my roms but the no id dosent??" - this I really don't uderstand. Both version can read the same rom files if this is what you ask. They just ned to be in the same folder as the exectuable.
1. look i'm not a noob...
2. i cant run the device info on my pda...wont start?!
3. i get the radio error after 7% of flashing
4."why does BaUpgradeUt recognize my roms but the no id dosent??" i can read or? sinply the no id dosent recognize my roms...
5. i even tryed to modify the roms via dos...
help???
1. We'll see ;P
2. You mean GetDeviceData.exe? Have you read http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_GettingStarted Or you mean that device is dead and that's why you cannot start anything? Please, be precise.
3. This we know, but it doesn't bring any new info. We need error codes, anything.
4. "does not recognize rom" - but you mean nk.nbf files, or the device itself?
5. You mean you tried to modify device data in nk.nbf in command line (this is not DOS, btw) using the data you don't have (as I understand from 2)
SO: Please be precise and explain again now, what is the problem, step after step.
1. hehe you got a point there
2. yes i have red everithing! i can start cab-s...can run the unlock progi...but the device info not(and some other progs)...i can upload any ms-s!!!thats interesting!
3. i only get the 114 error 4 the rom...after 7%...so it starts...(on the pda is only the bootloader text) and no % are counted...my ges is that it only tests the rom...?! for the nk...after a while at 0% ist spits an error: canot upload ce flash rom...and so on...an the standard "do it again" message...(big help)
4. when i uload wit the no id another ms...i can see my ce flash vers...an the ms i want to upload...after that i have the ce flash and the ms...so that works fine?!

Help XDA2s CID preventing me from upgrading with official rom

Hi recently aquired an XDA2s from a friend. However, the firmware has been modified. Would like to restore it back to the original firmware as the SDIO card is not functional. Used the Official ROM, but gave a Country ID error with my device and refused to upgrade.
Have done some homework read the instructions as shown on this link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=228852.
However, i am stuck halfway. Here is my Devicetype.txt file description. Only managed to get the Devicetype as PH20B, Language ID = WWE. The rest of the info I can't really make out.
Also, when i use the file : xda2nbftool -t -x,
it gave a warning for ms_.nbf
The rest of the files such as nk.nba and radio.nbf were ignored. See pic.
How do i get the rest of the hex addresses for the radio and nk files ?
Could someone help to generate the final nbf files for me or help advise ?
The Official ROM file versions are here :
English ROM
ROM: 1.40.00 WWE
Date: 03/10/05
Radio: 1.12.00
Protocol: 1337.42
ExtROM: 1.40.923 WWE
MMS: 2.0.0.21
BT: 1.0.0 Build 3900
Can anyone help ?
More information on my existing XDA2s firmware :
ROM Version : 5.04.09.WWE
ROM Date : 11/02/06
Radio Version : 1.15.00
Protocol Version : 1337.45
ExtROM Version : (Left Blank)
Never really heard of ROM Version 5.04.09.WWE. And SDIO Card is not detected. Would like to downgrade to the official ROM as i suspect that the SDIO Drivers are not installed in the existing ROM.
Also, i tried using XDAtools\OSimagetool to copy another XDA2s firmware to this XDA2s. But it failed to write generating an error in the pic. Status of Activesync is connected.

I'm afraid you have read the wrong homework. Those directions are for the Himalaya & Andes, not the angel.
What OS is on the phone now? That will help point to the correct directions needed to reflash the phone.
Flashing to 2003 from WM5 or 6 will vary depending on if the extended ROM has been resized, etc.
Check the angel getting started in the wiki (It's working now)
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_GettingStarted
Oh ... thanks for pointing that out. To answer more questions :
It's running on a generic Windows mobile 5.0. I have a feeling that the Ext rom is already corrupted as the gsm portion of the phone is not functioning properly. I'll do a readup and revert my results. Thanks.
here's the thing. if you have a problem with the CID... all you have to do is find the exe file here named MAUpgradeUt_NoId.exe... use that instead of the exe provided in your Official Rom, i guess that would be WM2003se you are installing.
afaik, extrom havent have a thing to do with the GSM.
Thanks for the reply.
Thing now is that i am trying to downgrade from wm2005 to wm2003 (o2 official asian rom v1.42) But then looks like i am trying in vain.
Tried to do what is in the directions for wm2005->wm2003 by setting it to bootloader mode, doing a hardreset and using maupgrade_no_id with the official nk.nbf
But then it hangs while the check is being done. The xda2s screen shows v2.08 and serial. It changes to usb once the usb cable is plugged in.
Is there any other method i can do to downgrade it ?
