i recently tried to update my 8125 cingular to the 2.08 cingular ruu with a2dp and the radio becomes changed but the rom version is still the 1.8.1.11 or whatever it was. i would like to either find a way to fix this and get this rom working because i am dying to have a2dp or how i may go back to my cingular rom. i tried to use the ruu file from htc to downgrade and i get an error 296 upgrade only message. could anyone shed some light on this for me?
In the FTP site try using
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard/Roms/Cingular/Cingular_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_WWE.exe for the upgrade
This worked fine for my 8125, and it is running much faster..
To downgrade to the ori ROM try using
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard/Roms/Cingular/Cingular_RUU_1.8.11.1.WWE.ship.exe

I swiched from Cingulat to T-mobile and was able to unlock my phone for use with T-mobile but now I want to change the ROM so that I don't see Cingular everytime I turn my device on and I want to get rid of all Cingular apps. I attempted to install Mr.cleam 2.24 but i get an
"Error [300]: INVALID UPDATE TOOL"
The Same happens when I attemp a T-Mobile Rom.
After researching a bit I found that I need an updated RUU? Can anyone help with this?

I've got similar problem when I tried to upgrade TNT 4.0. I am using a CID locked SimUnlocked O2 XDA Mini S
sorry, I found the new RUU last night. now worries.
I just got my T-Mobile MDA in the mail and searched the forums for my IPL/SPL with no such luck. I was looking at a Custom 2.26 ROM but it requires 2.xx to install.
Do I need to upgrade with another official ROM and then run this?
PS. I already CID Unlocked my phone with loki
Hmmm, searching google turned up this thread...

If you have any issues upgrading to this ROM I would advise downgrading to the origional T-Mobile 1.08 ROM first and then try installing this one again.

So the 1.08 is the original ROM?
Are these ROMs available for DL anywhere unofficially? I want to flash my device, but don't want to wait a week for a cheap mini-SD card to come in the mail... anybody have any suggestions? Is this ROM even worth backing up being as aged as it is?
is there anyway to "shelltools" flash my radio rom? I've been missing a lot of calls lately and it really is becoming inconvenient. I havent unlocked my phone, but i am running wm6 using shelltools (mfrazzz's stuff) and i was wondering do i even need to have my phone unlocked to flash my radio? i dont want to lose my warranty so thats why this matters to me. Any ideas guys?
You may get the official (in your case, T-Mobile, I guess) ROM to flash your phone with the full set of WM5 ROM (e.g. IPL, SPL, OS and Radio). As you are using the official ROM, you do not have to CID-unlock your phone prior flashing this official ROM. After that, you may then use shelltool to update/upgrade/flash the WM6 in, while the radio is untouched (e.g. still using the one you've flashed with the official ROM).
i thin i have done what you said already. Before i flashed mfrazzz's wm6 rom i flashed the latest tmobile rom, then i proceeded to flash the wm6 rom. I didnt use shelltools to flash the official tmobile rom obviosuly, but i did use shelltools to flash mrazzz's wm6 rom.
these are my things from what i'm using now:
ipl 2.26
spl 2.26
gsm 02.25.11
os 2.18.0.0
Flash the t-mobile uk radio rom 2.19.11.. that'll work for u.
ur OS is wrong if ur running wm6...
2.18 is Crossbow Reloaded... or Faria's..

ok thanks guys for all the help, but i still have a couple small questions
first, in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=253609&page=4
(post #34) he says that if you dont cid unlock before applying the radio rom you will brick the phone.
next im looking for that uk rom, but i really cant find it, can anyone point me in the right place? and even though im in the US it will still work right?
thank you guys so much! i really aappreciate it
There you go

I have flashed my RADIO ONLY several times with no consequences for my CID LOCKED G4 Wizard, here´s the link for the RADIO ONLY
ftp://xda:[email protected]_Thread/T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radio_Only.zip
You have flashed RADIO only on you G4? HOW? I am having the following problem:
I had to flash a T-Mobile German ROM to use the shelltool for the latest WM6 ROM, it worked but unforunately I have got Radio 2.69 and IPL 3.08.XXX1. (from the latest official MDA Vario ROM flash before)
After the Hardreset everything went fine - I've got WM6, but after i had changed the Clock settings and restarted my device i simply have NO SIGNAL anymore. I am currently in australia maybe thats the reason???
I tried to install the offical T-Mobile AKU 2.0, but the RUU shows me error 296 as I have installed a later ROM AKU3.3 bevor my WM6 flash.
Which tools have y used? And how is the procedure?
Cheers!!!

No, we can´t flash a ROM with bootloader other than the one you have if you have a G4 CID locked device. Unless you use a RUU with no ID (see next paragraph) and the nb.nkf file lacks of IPL/SPL, such is the case of the Wizard Love which I use before to flash any other ROM with the Shell Tool.
Read post #2 of this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310954
Read carefully where talks about Splash Screens and Splash Only RUU for G4, same procedure for splash screen applies to RADIO. This doesn´t work for OS, for OS you have to use Shell Tool.
Good luck!
Well after finally trying to upgrade my rom i am now stuck at the screen with red green and blue that shows my IPL and SPL.
Can someone tell me where and what rom i can use. So far all the ones i have tried dont work
here are my specs before updating,
IPL/SPL 2.26
gsm 2.25.11
Os 2.26.10.2
I need to get this fixed asap as this is my only phone. Please help!!!!
Turn into bootloader and up Official ROM.
Try it if your wizard is T-Mobile Variop.

Also make sure your Storage card is removed before you flash.
Is your phone CID unlocked?
I had a molski rom working on it before i just wanted to update cause alot of things stopped working. I use cingular service so i cant use the tmobile rom. I have installed the tmobile rom so i know it will take a rom. Im just having a hard time getting anything new to work. the CID was unlocked at one time will that change when i tried to upgrade or reinstalled the tmobile rom?

No, you should not have to unlock it again, unless you burned the button 1.05 rom again. Then you have to unlock it again.
so which rom which i try? Its a T-mobile MDA G3 and im using it for cingular service?
Hi,
Ages ago I upgraded my G4 wizard to WM6.1. Now it turns out I need to put it back to WM5 - but can't find a RUU to use.
The original ROM was from O2, but that is not vital. Does anyone know where I can get a suitable RUU from? I found one that would, I think, only work with a G3 device, but have not found one yet I can use...
Cheers,
Ben
I thought I had found one, but the RUU complains that it is the wrong version (Error 300) and I get nowhere. I still have WM6.1 working fine... how infuriating :0p
Well,as you say its a G4 and upgraded to wm6.1,ok
First,how did you upgrade to wm6.1,which method did you apply to upgrade,was it SoftSPL or HardSPL ?
If you applied SoftSPL,then,just simply download official stock rom and flash it,it'll work,but if you applied HardSPL and the IPL/SPL are changed,then first you'll have to Remove HardSPL,revert back to Original Official IPL/SPL of the carrier and then you'll be able to reflash wm5,ok
Let me warn you here,if the phone is HardSPL and you flash any Official stock rom without removing HardSPL first,will 'Brick' your phone.

hi there,
Actually i had the problem with G4 on how to upgrade to WM6, I tried but no luck, haven't tried either SoftSPL or HardSPL yet but when I flashed my WM5 original ROM, I didn't have any backup at all so I kept searching answers here for days, & finally I tried the Wizard Love ROM which one of the Senior Member here said it will work. It works for me & now I'm using WM5 Wizard Love Rom with CID LOCKED.
Hope I can help u with that..
P.S.
If anybody can teach me how to upgrade my Wizard G4 (T-Mobile/MDA - black) to WM6 (any rom) or the download links for SoftSPL ONLY! they said it's safe..
Would gladly appreciate!
Thanks...
