MDA Vario ROM Upgrade (TMOB_NL)

Hi,
I've done a lot of reading through this board on upgrading the wizard.
So far i managed to sim unlock, CID unlock, unlock extended and backup my original roms with the tools provided on FTP (awizard etc).
Still I have a problem with upgrading my ROM(s):
If i use one of the .exe (self exe RAR) ROM versions my Activesync stops, the device kind of restarts in a green/red/blue screen with usb at the bottom. After a while the upgrade program tells me I have a 260 error (Update error). Every time I have to remove the battery and restart the device. And it comes back with my original system....:-(
Seems I cannot upgrade the device or I am doing something wrong...
Same thing with all versions and even the radio ROMS
There is a possibility to upgrade with Awizard but i dont have the decrypted version of any Rom. I only have the nk.nbf files or total .exe packages. Awizzard wants a decrypted .nba file which I don't have.
I woul like to upgrade my OS and radio roms but cant figure out whats wrong here...
Can anyone help me out?
Currently running:
IPL 1.0.3
SPL 1.0.3
Radio 1.4.10
ROM 1.3.2.3 NLD
TNX in advance,
steven

Are you sure you unlocked the CID? you need to hit "c" instead of "u" at the dialogue during the unlocking..

Seems to me that I unlocked the thing, here's the output:
If I do it again Old and newdata are the same

mm, got the same problem over here. After i flashed (succesfully) from vario to qtek rom i cant install any other roms. Activesync simple disconnects when running the .exe roms files.
done so far
- hard reset vario
- reset computer
- hard reset vario with empy extended rom
- reinstalled activeSync

I'm trying to apply the latest imate rom over my UK Vario and have the same problem - as soon as the bootloader appears on the device, Windows drops the connection to the phone and the update fails.
Any ideas?

You can try this maybe
1) Start phone in bootloader (hold camera button and press on)
2) DO NOT allow USB connections for ActiveSync
3) Attach the USB cable to PC and PDA
4) Start ROM Update (So just doubleclick the .exe file)
5) Click next 1 or 2 times and try to flash the damn thing
Good luck boys and don't forget to post your results

Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't work.
As soon as I connect the usb to the pc and phone, when the device is in the bootloader screen, Windows detects an "unknown usb device" and prompts for drivers. I doesn't find any/I don't have any, and so the device isn't connected properly. Subsequently, the RRU utility can't talk to the phone

I read some other post where someone first downgraded his qtek 2.x firmware to a 1.x Qtek (same brand) and then unlocked and upgraded to another brand firmware.

I've got mine to work - it's the cable! The cable I was using was ok to sync with Activesync, but wasn't USB2, and so the bootloader didn't work with it.
Having now upgraded, the old USB sync cable doesn't even work with Activesync, so cable matters!

PDA2K dead.

I have a I-mate PDA2K with ROM 1.12 ITA and while I was to install the 1.40 ITA ROM downloaded from www.clubimate.com, the screen of my pocket pc became black, active sync has closed and the program to update the ROM is remained blocked in checking the hardware.
Now the pocket pc present only the notice "Serial v. 2.06" and do not respond if I press the on/off button.
How can I reinstall the system with the old ROM or the new ROM???
Active Sync does not see the pda2k.
Please, help me!!!!!
Thanks and sorry for my english.
Best regards,
Enrico.

did the flash fail halfway through? if it never started you should be able to just reset it and be back to normal.. try to put it into bootloader manually "power+record+reset" and you'll get the serial 2.07 screen, then dock it in your crable and it should say USB 2.07 and your PC recognize it.. run the flash again

No, I have pressed "power + record + reset" and inserted the pda2k in the craddle, but the notice is "serial v2.06" and not appear "usb v2.06" adn the program to flash the rom notice "Error 101: connection error" because not see the device.

Have you ever changed the Sync Cable? There would be some probs with your cable!!!

I tried to remove and then replace the battery and I inserted the pda2k in the cradle. Now the notice is "USB v2.06", I tried to reinstall the ROM tonight but the program is remained blocked with the notice "checking the information on your device" for all the night and the Active Sync crashed. Today I detached the device and the "error 101: connection error" appear.
How can I install the ROM directly?

I'm having the same problem
The cradle is ok for sure
but no connection to activesync
help is needed
Best regards
Paulo

WOW ... WOW ... WOW ... WOW
I resolved my problem!!!!!
I noted that the file downloaded from the original website clubimate is composed from varied file inside.
One of these is for checking hardware device and one of these is for upgrade the device.
But the file downloaded is an executable file complete and when I executed this, the program was blocked during the checking.
Now I think that if I unpack the exe file with winzip in a directory and I execute the only file to upgrade the ROM, I avoid to do the check of the pda2k and maybe it function.
This is the solution.
The upgrade started and now I have my pda2k like first one.
I hope it is of help for other.
Bye and thanks at all.
Enrico

pda2k No Radio Upgrade No answer in WIKI

My wife has a pda2k that the phone quit working on, the pda functions are fine. I was able to upgrade the rom and ext rom but when I try to upgrade the radio it always fails. I have been all over this site and the web nothing has worked to flash the radio. When the flash progarm runs I can see the rom and ext rom versions but nothing is displayed for the radio. I have tried all versions of the roms I have found. Always the same the radio fails, I had to remove the radio rom from the dir. to get the others to update, I then tried the radio alone several times, several different waysand it always fails with various errors.
Thanks for any help.
Husband with a ticked wife please help!

hey,
put ruu.dll, radio_.nbf and MaUpgradeUt_noID in a folder, and run the maupgradeut.exe file...this should upgrade the radio rom only, that is the gsm part.
let me knw whether it workd...

Did you follow the wiki radio upgrade only instructions ? if so what is the error?

I have tried both options listed above, the upgrade starts sits at 0% for several minutes then fails. I do not remember the exact error, this is what happens every time.

put ruu.dll, ruu.conf, radio_.nbf and MaUpgradeUt_noID in a folder, then put your device into bootloader mode by pressing power, reset, and record buttons at the same time, this combination of buttons will show "Serial" and bootloader version on your screen, then place it on the cradle, the "Serial" should change to "USB" then kill activesync (open task manager and kill rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe) then start MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and all should be fine
if an error pops up please let us know

This not working. I Has the same problem. It seems like HW problem. Can't update radio. Then BT address 00:00:00... And now it freez at startup always.
IMHO. This is bad Flash which died.
I am waiting for answer about a month an still haven't one.

SoftService is right, if this type of upgrade fails it may be a hardware issue

I created a directory with the files listed and this is the error message I recieved:
error 114: radio rom update error
Any Ideas?
Thanks

do you have a sx66?

Anybody here has Full flash from PH20B device?
I think fullflash will help us from that problem. But it will the question how to unlock device after this procedure.
And anybody know how to repair IMEI?
Is there hardware specialists?

MDAIIIUser,
Mine is labeled PDA2K. It has quit syncing now. It just seems to be dying a slow agonizing death, and it's taking me with it! I need my electronic brain back.
I have tried all the suggested steps repeatedly. I am getting nowhere. It seems to want to work, it just keeps erroring out.
Thanks.

I had yesterday some problems regarding radio upgrades, which can not be solved by WIKI, so :
my radio rom was TYPEII and the files for upgrade are TYPEI => It can not upgrade
Tryed radio 1.13 TYPEI with TYPEI files and NOID => error
then tryed radio 1.13.1 TYPEII with its TYPEII files and just copied into that dyrectory the NOID APP and it worked (i have just learned that MAUpgradeUT_NOID.exe works with TYPEII RUU.dll and RUU.conf)
I was surprised because i use NOID for upgrading my roms and the files are TYPEI

wiki
pls read wiki
you need to formate the device
camera+recoder button thing

i did exactly that and had usb come up on screen but still no joy.
Cheers

hey
regarding the the maupgradeutnoid.exe, when your using it for the vry first time, you have to disable activesync first, put your device into bottloader mode, and put it ine the cradle... you could here a sound, wait till the device would be recognize and wait till a popup message telling you that the new device installed is ready to use and that's the time where you run the maupgradeutnoid.exe otherwise you'll keep on just getting that message that the upgarde is finished, well actually nothing has happened.
since, its your first time attempt of upgrading to wm5, you can use baupgrade.exe but be sure you have set the corect operator for your device. to know what is your operator info, just transfer the getdeviceinfo.exe to your device and run it, this .exe will generate devicedata.txt found in the windows directory of your device. tranfer it to your pc and read it from there, in my case I have an imate, my operator is CDL_01, remember this coz you will neede this when your upgrading to wm5.
in any rom that you can download in this site, there is an included bat file, setoperator.bat, and enter you operator info, after that your ready to run baupgradeut.exe with no problem... read the wiki for better understanding.. alwaysssssssssss read..............

actually, depending on your screenshot, your device is exactly ready to flash, you just gotta put it in the cradle ad start flashing it with whatever rom you want. because what you see there is the bootloader:
How to enter into the so-called Bootlader mode on the HTC Blue Angel devices
Note: entering Bootloader mode will result a Hard Reset if you have WM2003SE on your device!
1. Press Power + record (above the volume slider) + softreset at the same time.
2. You should see a white screen with "Serial" text on it and the Bootloader version.
3. Put your device into the cradle
4. Make sure that the charger of your PDA is connected to the cradle.
5. The text should change to "USB" now.
what i want to say is, start flashing following the WIKI Wizard or several step by step guides to be found in the wiki and the forum

hi guys!
my ba also displays this strange message after an unsuccessed update (disconnected before finished). i have tried to install the update once more but it says: error 101: connection error. because i own my ba just since 20 hours, i don't know what to do now. so maybe someone could translate it into newbie-language. one more thing: unfortunately i use vista.
thanks for your help!

tried it once more with the new windows mobile device manager but my pc does not find my ba. vista just plays a sound when i put it on the cradle. i think you are the only ones in the hole www who can help me. need your help!

use maupgradeut_noid for upgrade
both of you read wiki there are solutions to your problems

maupgradeut_noid tells me this:
don't think that it is right.

hi folks!
i have tried it a hundred times with my vista mashine and a couple of times with xp on virtualbox but nothing. 15 minutes ago i have turned on my old xp mashine, downloaded the ROM from tmobile germany and started the application. it worked for me without maupgradeut_noid. only the original rom and nothing else. so my tip: don't waste your time with vista! xp is much better for solving this problem. thanks xp!

ok, but as i see it you didn't solve a problem but avoided it, and not even in the best way. i use vista too and i am unable to re-flash my device. the general problem is that the identifier of the device change over the flashing process, so vista downloads new drivers and cuts the connection. as i understand it, there is hardly any way to avoid that.
of course you do't need to use maupgrade_noid for an original rom, the _noid file is, as implied by the name, to avoide the device from identifying, so you could flash a WWE Rom to a rather locked german device.
as you might have realised, the picture you posted shows the magician and not the blueangel, hence the name Maupgrade instead of Baupgrade, which again is solved by the _noid version of the file and putting the device to bootloader first.
that the window does not show the versions from what version you flash to what version exactlyu doesn't matter at all. but as mentioned before, you should use an xp machine which will work like a charm!
am i to understand, that you have the latest official t-mobile rom on? the wm2003se?
as fast and battery friendly that might be, it is so out-dated and practically no newer third party software will be supported, like the fantastic application SPB Online, and the interface is incredibly ugly. if you ever want to try and flash your device again, try my tips above and it will work out just fine, as you seem to have mixed up a few things, but never mind.
i wish you best luck for trying again and will stand by for support, whether something might still not work out as planned.
good luck
Chef_Tony

well if you upgrade under vista take a look here
also look here for MAUpgradeUT_NOID and proper files - it is on the bottom of the page, so you only need the nbf files
