1st of all thanks for your reply.
I did follow the instruction but I got the error on the 1st post it seems that the Extended_Rom is deleted not resized to 128KB any tool to creat a permenent partition and name it Extended_Rom.
Thanks again.
Hi,
Try to install 2003 software, you can find it at Club Imate, as this will re-install the EXT-ROM then again Unlock it and Repartition it to 16MB. By this way you will get the original ROM Version 2003.
Hope this will help.

Thanks for your reply. But the problem is worse than that I tried this many times bt as the Extended_ROM (club i-mate) size 16 MB and the device Extended_ROM is reformated to 128 KB it cannot install it and when I tried to Format or Unlock it I got the errors as the 1st post and also I noticed that the bluetooth giving me license expired error and the device always freezes. If there is a program that Can Creat a temp disk like the one in WM5 or any method to Creat a drive like that (PERMENANT DRIVE) I'll be thankful

Guys,
This is my experience with O2, which stuck on boot after udated to new IVAN's ROM.
First of all I'd like to thank Ivan for his great job.
Now, what I did:
Downgraded to se2003
Unhide, Unlocked EXTROM
Repartition EXTROM to 8MB
Upgraded to new WM5 ROM
Reboot -> STUCK !
I found the solution which worked for me and may be will help you too.
More, after my second attempt to upgrade ROM, my Laptop rebooted itself a 47% ! I did panic- my device was gone dead!
even Bootloader mode was unavailable.
OK, I disconnected PDA from cradle, removed battery and left it for 10 minutes. Then I put battery back, and was able to put it into bootloader mode.
Then, I run mtty utility and typed in "set 14 0" I'm not sure why and how, but it allowed me to to go to bootloader mode.
-I set SE2003 OS
-I repartition EXTROM to 16MB
-Updated again to new Ivan's WM5.
Voila ! it's OK now. I'm installing all needed CAB's and now have clean very fast and working OK WM5 OS o my O2 XDAs PDA.
( although have not tryed yet BT and WiFi)
I'm afraid the problem was due to setting number 8000 KB in partiotion tool set it actually a bit less something about 79xx KB.
May be EXTROM for Ivan's ROM did not like it and failed to boot. But this is just a speculations, I'm not sure. I should perhaps set size o EXTROM to say 9000KB and try again, but simply did not have a time to do test.
Nevetheless, I'm happy now.
can u provide me step by step (noob guide) to downgrade back to wm2003se ... the one i downloaded from the official site doesn't work ... it will say error and i still stuck with wm5 ... im a noob ... please really help, thanks
ok at last i found it ... extract the installation files provided by o2 ... put the rom file into the downgrade folder provide by the modified rom pack ... now i try go back to wm5 ... wish me luck
i tried go back to win2003se but when i use the unlocker tools it failed ... so i guess i will nvr get to see the ext rom ... anyway as long as the phone can be use i will leave it as it is now
Yes, I know, it gives you an error message (something about wrong parameters) on unlock. But, under that you can see another message box with unlock OK message. Quite weird.
Steps I took to downgrade are exactelly as instructions in downgrade folder.
And one more thing I forgot ! After unhiding I did soft-reset, then unlocked and then Formatted ETROM folder before upgrading to WM5.

maybe that's why u able to see the extrom after upgraded to wm5 ... btw i install the cabs one by one and now my wm5 worked ... guess imnot going to touch it anymore, but the performance is actually quite slow ... do you actually install all the cabs into the device, storage card, or extrom partition (i dont have this) ... to maximise the performance?
what WM5 are you using?
if you ask me, i'm using Ivan's ROM + radio 15.0 with about 10 diff. cabs installed.
performance is not such impressive, but everything is working and I do not have soft I won't use.
clean and quite reliable, but speed is slow.

I also got stuck with a white screen after flashing ArtZ Rom and doing a hard reset.
Just a white screen and nothing happens.
Flashed other Roms - back to Tuma - same thing - white screen after hard rebooting.
Stuck and confused now.
Any ideas for a solution?
Thnx
OK - I am back.
Panic mode over - whew!
Flashed back to WM2003 from i-mate site - it worked.
Then flashed to latest ArtZ Rom.
Don't really know what happened or why. I've upgraded to nearly every WM5 Rom with no problems. suspecting the partitioning of extrom?

imatrix, thank you very much, your hint solved
this issue with stucked boot screen and Extended
ROM Error when downgrading to SE2003.
I already tried with mtty and "SET 14 0", but
don't know for the other commands / task 28, task 0.
The main hint is "task 28" which made DOC_format_HW+
DOCInfoTableinitHW+ other formatting.
Again, thank you very much and all the best to you.
Greetings from Croatia, the small land for a great vaccation ;-)
@MDA3_CRO
Just saw your post.
Could not get mtty to work.
Will keep your instruction for future use (hope not).
Glad your .paper weight' is useful now

Hello Everyone,
My BA is stuck at the Splash Screen, I suspect that the Bootloader is corrupt. Does anyone know how to flash it?

imatrix's suggestion.
@imatrix
Followed the steps before, and followed them again.. I'm still stuck.
Something interesting happened though:
There are two horizontal stripes across the splashscreen now.
I already tried to flash the OS, It doesn't work with the standard imate flash executable (It used to work before) and now I'm getting a 'MODEL ID ERROR' when I try to flash it using the BAupgrade... executable.
I tried with the MAupgradenoid tool, it flashes but I still get stuck on the splashscreen...
Thanks,
Wadih
BlueAngel Bootloader
Anyone has a way to either dump a bootloader file for the BA (Providing the file of course) or alternatively directives to copy it from another device (From the same make, i.e. Imate PDA2K) ?
Many thanks,
Wadih.

I did, but as I specifed in me earlier post, eventhough the MAUpgradenoID flashes the files, I still get stuck at the splashscreen.
Interesting point: After flashing witht the MAUpgradenoID, I try reflashing back with the BAupgradeid.. I get the Model Error ID error back..
Something in the BA is wrong, and I believe it may be in the Bootloader. So, is there a way to replace the bootloader itself?
EDIT: By the way, I can't seem to be able to place a WM5 rom instead of the WM2003, although the flashing procedure starts, it quickly ends (i.e. without the percentage bar appearing) and says that the flashing worked successfully... But nothing gets actually flashed.
Many thanks for the help imatrix.
Regards,
Wadih.

Hi imatrix!! thanks for your help!! really appreciate it. As expected it's the extrom that was giving the problem. I guess it got stuck at bootloader was because bootloader couldn't find any extrom files to load.
Thanks again

Hi there,
I have prolem with upgrading my BA.
I upgraded my BA to WM 2005. But this version isn't suitable for my. I would like to return to my previous ROM, or change ROM to HEMI...
I downloaded HEMI ROM and I started upgrade utility..
First i used BaUpgradeUt.exe. Error 100: Error model ID appeared..
Second I used MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe. After several seconds appeared window with information about uprading, so I pressed UPGRADE button.
After that ActiveSync shutted down, and window with information "checking information on your device" appeared...
My XDA still working, there is no information about upgrading.
Is there any tricks with WM2005.
Some advices?

Yes: to read readme.
In every rom package, (even in case of HELMI's on) there is Readme.txt file, that explains the procedure (in case of helmi's one: in folder with nbf file).
In short words:
0. Unhide and delete EXTROM by repartitioning flash rom (info on Wiki)
1. Unzip and copy nbf to correct folder
2. SetOperator (in case of MDA3 from ERA GSM it was T-MOB009, but you HAVE to check it in your machine)
3. Prepare EXTROM on SD card
4. Put BA in Bootmanager mode (Serial/USB massage on the screen)
5. Go on with BaUpgradeUt
6. Make Hard Reset WM5 way (power with reset is not enough)
When you do this carefull according to the Wiki and Readme, you should be happy user of WM5.
Thx. It's working now.

Well after many hours of trying I finally got a BA SPV M2000 unlocked!
Not your average unlock this...it was ex-BSKYB and had their software set to load and lock EVERYTHING out apart from their menu, so first job was to get rid of that - not easy as it was very locked down!
Many hard resets later and I managed to delete all the files it needed to run, but the browser(it was browser based and full screen - no exit option!) then still launched denying me access to the system.
Anyway in the end managed to get into it and then followed the instructions in the Wiki - now it's running WM6 and is fully unlocked!!!
Gawd what a mission! But just wanted to thank everyone who contributed to the Wiki and development of the unlock for making it as easy as it could be - after i blitzed the BSKYB software!!!
