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:

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!

I got now:
IPL, SPL: 1.03
GSM: 1.4.10.0
OS: 1.3.2.3
ROM versie: 1.3.2.3 NLD
Radioversie: 01.04.10
Can you tell me.. do i need to upgrade? What will be better when i upgrade?
With which ROM do i need to upgrade?
Please help.
Qtek ROM version 1.6.7.1
In my humble opinion; Qteks 1.6.7.1 ROM is the most stable ROM to date. Everything works perfectly for me with all my 3rd party software installed too!!
PS if you haven't already done so, you can totally unlock your phone from T-mobile by following the following instructions. Also do searches for the quted software (download them first):

I wonder whether you had any problems during new rom installation...
I tried this ROM, but after the installation was finished, Etx_rom installed and system rebooted I got a "device locked message. illegal ROM, given only to customers who bought their wizard/qtek at ...[]" I had to go back thru several instals to restore my original ROM (which i never truely accomplished - i have no ability to change ring tones and assign them to different contacts)

Hey back at ya.
First download lokiwiz v2b. Don't use previous versions or you'll not get through this!!
Hard reset your device (not necessary, but it ensures you'll have no hassle with Activesync).
Done that? Good. Extract the lokiwiz v2b .zip folder and copy enablerapi.cab to your memory card or to 'My Documents' folder on your device. Then execute the 'enablerapi.cab'.
Done? Just switch off the device (power button; put it in standby mode).
If you have Activesync already installed, un-install it and re-install directly afterwards (ensure a brand new partnership).
Then when prompted by Activesync, plug in your USB cable PC-PPC and it should recognise as usual.
Then execute the lokiwiz.bat file (in the folder that was generated earlier when you extracted the lokiwiz02b.zip file) and when you see the MS Dos (black screen) choose the option CID Unlock (SuperCID) and wait for it to COMPLETELY finish. You'll know it's finished when your Wizard is re-booting. Plug out your USB cable at this stage.
Once re-booted and back into WM5, re-connect your cable and if all goes well it should re-connect to Active Sync (wait till it has finished syncing or says connected!).
Finally......double click the executable file, which should be:
RUU_Prodigy_1060701_101_11310_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe
Hopefully it will now install the ROM without hiccups (about 10 minutes).
Hope this helps. let us know how you get on.

Re: Qtek ROM version 1.6.7.1
Will the follwoing also work with the Cingular 8125. I haven't SIM unlocked it yet. Also, is a SIM unlock the same as a CID unlock. Is there tow different things that need to be unlocked. And which do I do first, if there are two things that I must unlock. Thanks for the help...and sorry if this questions has been answered before...

I don't know if this will work with the 8125, but If under 'Start/Settings/System/Device Information/Identity' it says 'WIZA200', i would assume so, as it was created for the HTC Wizard, but I'm not sure.
As for totalyy unlocking your phone, YES it will. CID Unlock did it for me, but I'm not the developer of this software so am not in the best position to advise if it is suitable for anything else other than a Wizard.
Hope this helps.

ROM
When I double click on the new Rom, does it erase everything on the Vario (Programs) ?! Do I first have to sync and then put the new rom on it !?
what r the main diffrences between the roms ?
I have a T-Mobile Vario with a german rom and I'm thinking about putting the RUU_Prodigy_1060701_101_11310_QTEK_WWE_Ship or the
RUU_Prodigy_1060701_101_11310_QTEK_GER_Ship
on it, which one is better and again what r the differences between those two and the original ?
or is there even a better one !?
greetz
Absolutely 100% perfect working tutorial. CID unlock worked as did the new ROM. I too changed form MDA T-mobile NL version to Qtek WWE one.
Great tips. Thank you very much, you just saved me a few 100 euro's, and I got a device which is useful and faster.
Hi to all I tried upgrade my BA to WM5 through WM2k5_AKU3.2 and I did everything by these instructions M5 ROM Installation Instructions that were indcluded in the rar file with ROM, EXTROM etc,
but unfortunetly after I pass 4th step(put BA to bootlader) I wanted upgrade the ROM using BaUpgradeUt.exe the utility was chcecking information for hour and nothing happened....then my BA is locked in bootloader.....nothing helps...
any Ideas?
i got that trouble 4 days ago.I thought i had to say goodbye to my PDA.
You can search and use mtty with task 28 ... to make your BA normal.
Amazing I tried use the mtty but in the list of comports I see only Serial ports and none USB.....WTF?
What does the display show?
It should have a white bg with SERIAL sign, with 2.(something).
If it does display such scree - you're in bootloader mode.
Now put the BA into cradle and connect the cradle to PC. The SERIAL should change to USB. If it does not - your BA froze in bootloader mode. Removing SIM card together with SD card helped (again, into BL mode, cradle - up, etc). If the SERIAL changes to USB - remove BA from cradle. If the USB did not change to SERIAL again - as above, BL freeze. Try the same solution.
If BA works as it should in BL mode - something is wrong with your PC-side of the operation...
the bootloader isn't froozen.....screen is changing depending on connecting or disconnecting to the cradle(serial goes to usb and vise versa).
With PC?I'm gonna mad about this....I have tried it on two system(both win XP) and same result.....
interesting thing is following one of those OS is 2 two days old(I have installed it two days ago...)
anyway.....throug this problems I'm little bit optimistic....If the bootloader isn't frozen I'm able flash the ROM isn't it?But the question is how.....when I run the BaUpgradeUt.exe from WM2k5_AKU3.2_32mb_v1.3.2 package it freeze on checking informations from device.....
any solution?
Hello gays!
I hav a problem with my Mda.
In my mda was windows 05 and i want to upgrade to 06
And im download rom from thiece site:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=305125
And i Upgrade rom thiece method :
ANOTHER FLASH METHOD :
If you have the chinese WM6 rom, downgrade to some WM5 with official RUU, then:
download this:
http://rapidshare.com/files/29098553...fixed.zip.html
Once you unpack it, please put the nk.nbf (charmer wm6) into the Shelltool folder. Open shelltool.exe. Click Get Rom info, then click Extract OS. Wait until its finished and you'll receive a file called 8004000-OS.nb (save it for later).
Download the xbeta Chinese WM6 rom : http://rapidshare.com/files/27671349...eta.exe. html
Extract it and put that 8004000.OS you saved before in the XBETA directory. In the itsutils folder of xbeta rom you will find enablerapi.cab and cert_spcs.cab. Copy them to your device, install them on Device Memory, then soft reset.
run xbeta.cmd and choose the 8004000OS.nb file to flash (you should be connected with AS and have your radio module turned off).
When the screen goes green and the flashing is finished make a HARD RESET!. Press Camera and Voice Dail buttons (hold them). Put and hold the stylus in reset button for 2 seconds. Release it. Wait until you see some white fonts on black screen. Then release those 2 buttons. Push the green dial button.
I choose thiece method becouse the first method in the rom subject doesnt work.
But after im instal new rom i have Era rom and when im complete upgrading to wm6 the phone is restart and im see era splash screen and its strange for me :/
So the problem is it is in startup screen showin Era splash screen and he STOP! i tried to hard reset but it gives fat partition error.
Please HElp me!
sounds like your device is CID locked at the time you flash it.. which gives you the same splash screen. However, the fat partition error (I presume it said format fail), is a big problem that AFAIK, it has no solution.
What you can do (at least) now is to put your phone in to bootloader mode and flash it (check the wiki, I think there is a section on this).
I turn on boot loader and i upgrade to another rom Era name and still thiece same Can you give me link with rom ?? to my phone ? Yes i dont unlock the cid
http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/download_manager_mda_com2.html
Now i download my Net is so slowly :d when im download and upgrade i write and good luck to me ;]
Rom t mobile Doesnt work. Other minds?? But the splash screen is T mobile ;]
ipl 2. 06
spl 2.06. 0000
gsm 02.19.21
os 2.6.2.27
meybe Rescue Rom like i wizard ?? do you now where i can find it??
the splash screen indicated that it has already flashed, but, as I've mentioned above, the partition failure are more complicated than that and may not be fixable yourself. I can't help anymore now, you can try to find some other solution. Good luck.
How to unlock cid ?? can you tell me what i hawe g 3 or g 4
at the top section of this screen, there is this "XDA-Wiki", go in to the 'Wizard' section. G3 G4 CID unlock info is there.

""Splash screen freezing -> SOLUTION !!! DIY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Damn... I walked around and around and solution was all near me and able to do it myself...
Ok here´s how I done it.
First, I must explain what was the problem.
After update the firmware (not actually upgrade, I had the phone full of trash, so I decided to reflash same firmware v2.18 PTG), the Qtek 9100 / HTC Wizard freezed at 2nd splash screen (the one that shows OS versions IPL version, ect). Tried many different versions, upgraded to 2.24, 2.25, downgraded even to 1.6.7.3, but always same problem, freezed on second splash screen. I read many topics on xda-dev, and seen some people with same problem. Apparently there was 2 solutions. 1- send phone back to warranty. 2- write backup ROM from SD in bootloader.
Passed more then 15 hours asking for this SD backup everywhere, and COULDN´T find any help. Apparently no one had this "SD dump ROM Backup".
So here´s how I solved my problem
1- I tought that a SD backup was needed, and yes it is. But u can use your own phone and your own SD to do it.
2- Get a clean SD card (in qtek 9100 / Htc Wizard case is MiniSD) with 128MB (some people say 64MB, but I personally used a 128MB, maybe a 64MB is enough)
3- Kill (task manager) wescomm.exe (this is related with activesync installed on your PC). Insert the blank SD card on the phone.
4- Get your phone in bootloader mode. Like this : Phone powered off, press Camera button + Power On, will enter in bootloader mode (RGB screen).
5- Now connect your USB cable to your phone. And start MTTY_updateROM.exe (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/romupdate.rar). After open, on Port selection, choose \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and press OK. A window will open with a blank sheet.
6- Type "r2sd all" and hit enter... wait to the end (at end shows "cmd>"). On your phone screen u can follow backup progress... small bar will appear down the RGB screen.
7- Power off the phone (or remove battery), enter bootloader mode (camera button + power on) and this time RGB won´t appear right away. Will ask if u want to "download SD image", press voice dial button to agree, and writting will begin. Wait to the end. Power off and power on normally. Now your phone should be working ok. Not even needed to reflash the phone after this.
Thanks to all and hope this helps more people with this problem""

Format Is Failed (!?)
Hi. I know that the focus is now on the new ROM, but I am having a problem with my MDA Compact II after following the alternative flashing method. Original details:
IPL 1.12, SPL 1.12.0000, GSM 01.11.20, OS 1.12.2.23
All seemed to go ok, following step by step as per http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=39129&d=1179243687 and I got to the end step with ‘Congratulations’. I had no error messages. However upon hard reset I got the message: FORMAT FAT PARTITION, FORMAT IS FAILED (oops!)
The screen then showed the same details as before, but with OS now 10.2.0.8.
I’ve done some searching on the Forums & tried restoring the phone via bootloader using both “MDAc2_ROM_Johnnnnnnnnnny_v1.0” (stalls at 99%) and “RUU_Charmer_1120223_11202110_11220_T-MobileUK_Ship” (this completes 100% & reverts the OS to 1.12.2.23, but I get the same FORMAT IS FAILED message).
Any further suggestions how I can revert to the original state, or update to WM6?
(My wife has an MDA II as well – I’ve checked my battery in her phone & it is fully charged).
PS Ignore the details at the bottom - I also have an MDA COMPACT (I)
Chameleon846: if you read carefully, you would know that you need at least bootloader in ver. 2.x to flash WM6. And seeing you have 1.x, no wonder it didnt flash poperly. GO find an official HTC Prophet rom and flash it with RUU. It will help.
no problem with this, this happen time after time on every ppc, it's random flashing error.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=307332
please, read forums before asking, this was mentioned many times...
vlodeck, thanks. A little knowledge... I stupidly missed the 2.x bit...
I've tried the RUU method with an official ROM. It completes all 100%, but will not go any further. I've seen bits about a restore from an SD card, but can't find the exact method (copying the nk.nbf file to SD & running bootloader doesn't do anything. If I manage to sort this am I able to upgrade the bootloader to 2.x?
Thanks.
Chameleon: not charmer official ROM. Prophet ROM!

any one can help me please
Until the new version of WMDC is released with fixes, I suggest you use XP computer to do upgrade.
New WMDC v.6.1 coming soon: http://windowsvistablog.com/blogs/w...ows-mobile-device-center-6-1-coming-soon.aspx
The XP computer needs to have Active Sync 4.5 installed. Reboot xp computer before starting, to clear any existing syncs. Delete current sync profile on Trin. Connect to pc via usb as usual, let ASync run, but cancel when it tries any profile, you are left as: Guest sync
You should be connected now. Upgrade rom file should be extracted in explorer, e.g., so you can see all files. Run RUU wrapper or ROMUpgrade exe, depending on rom you're using.
If you go through process, & get error message. Don't disconnect Trinity. Close that page & start again. It should work the 2nd time. When it's working, you will see the boot screen, color bars & at bottom usb notation. (If it says serial, you'll have to, unhook usb connection, reboot computer, re-sync to guest status, & start again.) Then the update screen on Trin will show % bar, if process is working correctly.
If you still get error message, then check Trinity Wiki info as rom upgrade problem FAQ is there. I'll assume your Trin is unlocked. Check boot screen on Trin to see boot loader info. Wiki explains how.
Also: Use SSPL software Bootloader solution from "Des" - this loader ignores the CID and the upgrade will work also with wrong CID. See also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293632
If you still have problem, come back here & give info:
1. What rom is currently on Trin? What radio?
2. Did you buy an unlocked Trin? Exactly, what device do you have?
3. What wm6 rom do you want to upgrade to?
well, Hard-SPL is released now! sorry for delay, this was ready last week, but I did not have a chance to get to my PC much.
[size=+2]NOTE: This is NOT a SIM unlocker - it also doesn't unlock Security for other radios. if you need that, GO HERE[/size]
[size=+2]Donations are always appreciated to the big link in our signature ("elite project"). You can also donate via the link offered in the new Hard-SPL program. Thank you!![/size]
[size=+2]EDIT: ATTENTION - I removed the V3 version, everyone who flashes new version (2.32.OliNex) on 1.40 stock ROM, should simply upgrade to a new 2.xx ROM afterwards.
also, new version of HSPL package (V5.2) is here which has some of the issues fixed.[/size]
Preparations:
first an important note, if you want to flash more than one Jade, contact cmonex for additional licenses via http://support.htc-unlocks.com. (the first license is transparently granted and free, so normal users do not need to worry.)
0) this package is for Jade (Touch 3G) devices. for JADE100 so far (SSPL loader checks this and gives a warning), apparently JADE110 is also ok, but if your ModelID is different, contact us for testing!! we will happily help. contact by posting in this thread or by PM'ing cmonex. do not PM OliNex user, that is not monitored frequently. until then, JADE110 etc is also accepted if you click "yes" to continue but it's your own risk to take.
1) if you have vista, WMDC update is recommended: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center.mspx
Instructions:
read this if unsure how to install Hard-SPL...
1) download latest Hard-SPL package (currently v5.20) from attachment, extract to an empty folder.
2) you must Have Phone Synced with PC in Windows Mobile!!!
3) NEW: internet access is required as the program checks online for updates and license.
4) run Jade-Hard-SPL EXE on PC, make sure it's launched from a local drive (not through network drive, etc.). if you are on vista, launching as Administrator is strongly recommended, on XP administrator login is required. important: if your AV (norton/symantec mainly) warns about a virus, ignore it, it just doesn't like the packer I used to pack the program.
5) if possible, always use Automatic flash mode (for uses of Manual mode, see troubleshooting section)
6) it will ask you to wait while it prepares for the flashing, press OK. follow steps in the program and then in the RUU.
7) some notes: it should go through without any error messages, if one does pop up, then please follow the instructions included in the error text. if no specific instruction is shown, then ask for help in the thread, but this should not ever occur (as this means a really fatal error occurred).
more notes: when RUU says it will hard reset, do not worry, it is not going to do that. also when it says the flash will take 10 minutes, ignore that, it will only take a minute or so.
8) device should go to a tricolour screen now that says 1.40.1000 (not .0000!!!), this is the SSPL version, which is temporary.
9) SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done.
10) to confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen!) and verify the screen shows 2.32.OliNex, which is the Hard-SPL version.
if it is 1.64.xxx instead then please make sure you actually download last version (v520) and flash using that. 2.32.OliNex is the correct Hard-SPL version.
NOTE: you will not see the SPL version during normal boot, that is the OS version, not SPL!
to enter SPL to check version, fully power the device off by long press of power key, then power on while holding the "volume down" key on the left side of the device. keep holding the volume down key until you see tricolour screen which is the bootloader mode, then release it.
NOTE 2: this is unsigned Hard-SPL. no limitations on flashing ROMs or radio packages. also, this has overwrite protection against HTC RUU's overwriting HSPL with a stock one, so if someone needs to revert to stock SPL for warranty reasons, a stock SPL downgrade package will soon be posted in this post as well. use this relocker *only* if you need to return the phone for warranty, and only use it as last step - after reflashing stock OS and radio. see steps at the end of this post about how to reflash stock SPL.
NOTE 3: do not use this RUU for anything other than SPL flashing (i.e. hardspl or stock spl restore)!!! nothing other than SPL's made by Olinex team (using OliNex custom cert, which is not public) will flash to make SSPL more secure. if you want to flash some other rom, then use shipped RUU or customRUU if you need to flash cooked ROM.
Troubleshooting:
- read the instructions above.
- read the instructions above.
- read the instructions above.
Manual flash mode for USB issues: you should usually go for Automatic flash mode; you must only attempt the Manual mode option if Automatic flash mode or SSPL-Manual.exe already put device in SSPL tricolour screen and you got USB issues. any other errors triggered while running in Autoflash mode will have to be fixed as instructed in the error message.
ModelID checking:
- if SSPL loader says it's for a different device, please contact cmonex in PM for testing SPL on that too. check modelid by entering SPL tricolour screen manually and note what it says (JADE100, or something else).
nothing happens on the device, does not enter tricolour screen mode:
- anyone having problems with the device entering SSPL automatically, please make sure you watch the device screen if it asks about running files. also try unchecking advanced usb functionality in settings.
- if it crashes instead of entering SSPL, you need to use Automatic mode.
general usb connection error problems if you get connection error in RUU after the device goes to 1.40.1000 screen:
- try manual SSPL: copy SSPL-Manual-Jade exe to the device and run it, then when it went to 1.40.1000 tricolour screen and shows "USB" at the bottom in this screen, use Manual option in the Hard-SPL program on the PC.
- make sure device was still synced via USB to the PC at the point of it entering SSPL (the 1.40.1000 screen)!
- try a different USB port
- try different USB cable
- do not touch USB cable during the process especially if it is already a bit dodgy
- also do not use USB hub
- you can also try rebooting your PC
- and you can try using another PC.
- also you can try unticking advanced network functionality in start menu / settings / connections / usbtopc applet.
- another reason for USB connection error: if your PC takes too long to load the drivers (if your device is in bootloader for the first time and perhaps if you are on vista), then if RUU times out, but device still says "USB" on the tricolour screen, just leave it there and re-run the RUU when driver installation finishes.
- finally, you can try disabling antivirus or firewall programs on the PC.
other issues:
- if Enterbootloader.exe fails to run (says missing component or similar), try a hard reset of the device.
- if device reboots instead of going to SSPL screen (1.40.1000), contact us by PM'ing cmonex. do not PM OliNex user, that is not monitored frequently.
How to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!:
0. please make sure you already flashed stock ROM and radio, because stock SPL flash is *always* the last step before sending the device in.
+1. [SIZE=+2]WARNING!!! do not flash 1.40 STOCK SPL on a 2.xx ROM!!!![/SIZE]
1. take the SPL relocker attachment, and run the EXE - this will flash 2.32.0000 stock SPL. simple as that!
(or if you want to manually pick an SPL version, then take a stock spl attachment (1.40 or 2.32), extract file and put it in customruu folder or any other ruu package and make sure you overwrite any existing RUU_Signed.NBH and delete any other *.NBH files in this folder)
3. flash
4. verify if it flashed by checking version in tricolour screen, it should say 1.40.0000 or 2.32.0000. if 1.40, then stock ROM must be 1.40.xx too, if 2.32, then must be 2.32.xx.

Updates:
MOD EDIT:

EDIT by OliNex:
v2 removed, hardspl in it was not the final one. everyone who used v2 to flash hardspl, please update to newest one.
EDIT by OliNex:
v41: new Hard-SPL, 2.32.OliNex, you do not need to update this currently.
EDIT by OliNex:
v520: new Hard-SPL, fixes some stability issues, if you already have 2.32.OliNex from v41, you do not need to update this Hard-SPL.
Nice work again guys
I can now close all the request threads

I'll try on the Jade t3232 brown german edition today, and post

Hi all,
The need of Server connection does not give me any confident.
Is there anyone having heard about such necessity during Hard Spl operation?
I think, it should be explained for the satisfaction of Jade owners.
Many thanx Olinex team... But unfortunately it seems that there is a problem with Jade-Hard-SPL_V1.exe
When I try to run it, it shows nothing...
For no_more_sm
If you are running windows vista, right click on the archive and then "run as administrator", the archive run properly but doesn´t work
my jade show this
JADE100 64MB
SPL-1.40.0000
MicroP-Jade (LED) v5
same here.
Anyway, I don't like the fact that we have to connect to the internet to do it, and I will not do it (given also that nobody reported having succeeded!)
