i wonder if anyone can help me.
i got a Vodaphone VPA III (PDA2K) from Germany.
Device Data:
PH20B2 B 2 GER R VODAP102 1.40.01 0 1 1.40.236 1.13.00 13.00
When I try to upgrade using the i=-mate or any other rom i get .ERROR 123 Radio Image File Checksum Error
Does anyone out there know how to flash it with WWE English???
I want also to install the Arabic after the WWE.
reg
If you are getting a radio checksum error then your radio file is corupt or you are using the type I files on a type II rom.
Follow wiki instructions and post what you did, pwhich rom you used and your error.
ROM Type I or Type 2
i think i used a type 1 rom.
PDA2k_WWE_14000_176_11200.rar is the file i used.
how do i upgrade to type 2 rom??? all the roms available seem to be type 1.
my device data are: PH20B2 B 2 GER R VODAP102 1.40.01 0 1 1.40.236 1.13.00 13.00
Does the PH20B2 mean i have to use a type 2 rom???
reg.
May be you should try not to flash radio?
Just delete radio_.nbf and try to upgrade again.

yes, he is using radio 1.13, which is best IMO
tried it. no luck
ok, here is what i did:
1. upgraded my old rom to the Vodaphone 1.4
2. Vodaphone rom is very slow. tried to get the WWE rom
3. performed all steps (device info etc...)
4. Connected the unit and got a Language error.
5. run the FIX.Bat
6. Got the Error 123 Radio Rom
7. Tried to delete the Radio file and upgraded again
8. get the Error 122 Extended Image file Checksum Error
Is there any way to just "start over" and get the old WWE rom back, or do i have to live with the Vodaphone German Rom????
P.S. I have read that there is a special procedure for PH20B2 upgrade, but i cant find it. Do you know where it is???
i give up
i am tiered of it. i just flashed the rom with W5
that worked and i like it. it is slow but ok.
i too have the same problem with PH20B2. You can help to find to me suitable ROM for translation from German? Please help. In fact there are at a forum experts? Or it not a forum of the help?

I need help, please!
I got a Qtek 9090 in Spanish and I would like to have it in English.
I tried to follow the steps described in
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_GettingStarted
but I cannot find what version is the one I need to download.
The Device Data I have is the following:

Can anyone tell me if there is a WWE version I can download to upgrade my device into English language?
Thanks for help

wiki has a new topic.
How to upgrade to the latest rom
Have you read it?
Yes, I checked that topic and that is where I found the steps I need to follow to upgrade my qtek. However, I need to find the right version to download it and install it in the phone.
In the topic they explain that the version has to be higher than my rom version and my radio version and I don't find any WWE file that has a rom version higher than 1.22.03 and radio version higher than 1.06.00.
Does it exist? Where can I find it?
Thank you for your help.

Download the I-Mate 1.40 WWE Rom.
thank you for your reply,
but, please, can you tell me what is the difference between the i-mate, qtek and dangaard version. Remember I have a qtek 9090, is the i-mate version the best for me? I am afraid of doing something wrong that can ruin my phone.
Thanks again
Matoha
Its all in the ext rom, check wiki, read about the ext rom, have a look at the ERK of those 3 roms.
Well, changing the language of your device is not supported and will void the warranty of your device anyways, so it doesn't matter which carrier's rom you put in.
Personally, save the same problems as the other 1.40 roms, and with the solution I found to the GPRS problems, the i-mate extended rom is the best, especially for someone who likely will not be cooking a custom one.
Hi guys,
I downloaded the i-mate version and I followed the steps, extracting the files, changing the fix.bat but when I run the upgrade I get the following error:
error 123: radio image file checksum error. the rom image file to be used for the update is corrupt. Download the correct rom update and try again.
Is it because any of the passwords in the fix.bat is wrong?
Is it because I should use another rom?
I tried with the Qtek and Daangard versions and I always reach to the same point.
Any idea?
Thank you
Matoha
Did you try the first method outlined here?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.40.00_Upgrade
First Method (Quicker/Easier, but not well tested)
1) Download update to desktop
2) Unrar or unzip all files in exe or rar into a new folder
3) Open the folder with the extracted files
4) Download this file: MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP (ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Tools/MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip)
5) Extract MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from this file and place it with the other upgrade files.
6) Continue to upgrade as normal, except run this new exe file instead of BaUpgradeUt.exe
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
I manage to do it with TheLastOne explanations.

I'm glad I could help.
Enjoy the improvements of 1.40 (although limited, IMO).
I'm sorry, I've searched and searched & been at BA_Begginers for the last 5 hours, where can I get latest more stable ROMS from? I've been advised to get the iMate 1.40 WWE ROM, but cant find it or links to it on this site, I've registerd at iMate but they have not sent an email so i cant download from there site any links?
or any ROM links for my XDA lls from UK o2 in 2004.

Hi.
Sorry but I simply don't believe You spent 5 hours at wiki and not clicked this:
ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/PDA2k_WWE_14000_176_11200.exe
to get an update.
In case, your device is not exactly i-mate pda2k (but another Blueangel) you'll need to replace baupgradeut.exe supplied with above archive with the one I give you (to bypass country/device id check)
Good luck
oops.. delete
thank you very much, i tryed a very similar link to imate firmware on the BA begginers page but it dosnt work at all, i spent most of the time trying to get registerd properly at imate only to be told to go away as i dont have a imate branded device. thanks again i'll give it a go.

i have downloaded the file you added to replace the the one in the imate rom, will replace then add it to XDA, where is the dummys guide to installing this particular ROM? i'll look again on the wiki page.
There should be some kind of 'step by step' in BA's wiki.
But in truth, the process is very simple.
Just download file from i-mate. Run it. (It will extract files to directory specified). Replace baupgradeut.exe with the one I gave you and run it (baupgradeut.exe).
On screen step by step displays and tells how to put device in bootloader mode and place in cradle etc.etc. simple
have fun
Hi.
I'm having some serious problems running WM5 on my SPV M2000 (Blue Angel). Internet Explorer keeps crashing, doesn't browse...bluetooth isn't recieving files from my PC, camera closes on its own, MSN Mobile not working at ALL...etc.
I want to remove this AKU3.5 ROM and return back to my previous WM2003SE ROM from Orange or even Imate. I downloaded the Orange V2.5 ROM update but failed to initialize the update process since the Country ID was incorrect for some odd reason.
Guys can you please help me out of it. Just tell me the safest and easiest way to downgrade back to the original ROM. And is possible that when i downgrade, i can install the Imate PDA2k ROM on my Orange SPV M2000?
I'd really really appreciate your help. Looking forward to your replies!
My device information details are:
ROM version : 5.04.09.WWE
ROM date : 11/02/06
Radio Version : 1.13.00
Protocol Version : 1337.42
ExtROM version : *empty* (blank)
i would make use of wm5 maupgrade_noID utility to flash the .nbf file of wm3 back to the original rom.

Yeah hi. Thanks for the reply, could you please give me a step by step procedure how am i suppose to do it? Where do i get the files from and how do i go about it.
I'd be grateful man!
As i see you use helmi aku 3.5 rom.
when u extracted the file out of the zip file u initially downloaded, u should see a folder name PH20B1. It includes maupgrade_noid utility there.
so basically what u do is extract the original rom (nk.nbf) into that PH20B1 folder, then put your device to bootloader mode, flash it as normal.

Actually i didn't install Helmi AKU3.5 ROM. I bought my phone used, and had this rom already installed. Now i want to get back to my original factory ROM. And i can't seem to get how to do it
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
link above lists all the original rom for each device / operator.
please see the attachment, it's the utility to upgrade.
for further information please read wiki though.
Thank you imatrix. Will go through the link you provided. Thanks for all your help!
By the way...is it possible for me to flash an Imate ROM on an Orange SPV M2000? I find Imate ROMs more stable than Orange.
ooo?/
I think, you will have a serious problem wwhen you go back to wm2003 mate.. you're bluetooth will be useless, I don't know why and how,,.. I tried wm2003 downgrade last time, and I was worried because when I try to turn my bt on, it keeps may saying that the bluetooth software is expired..bla..bla..and I can't turn my bluetooth on.. though I haven't tried installing abt stack, but I guess same thing will happen.. but its for you to find out.. theres a very comprehensive details on downgrading/upgrading roms on blueangel wiki.. to get rid of that country I'd error, just use maupgradeutnoid.exe which you can also download from there

well i'm gona try youre rom now...hope i finaly found what i'm looking for
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).

Consider also upgrading to WM5.

error 114: radio rom update error?!
help pliz
why does BaUpgradeUt recognize my roms but the no id dosent??
ROM version: 1.06.00 ENG
ROM date: 08/05/04
Radio version: 1.00.00
Protocol version: 1337.30
ExtROM version 1.06.117 WWE (anyone know what the WWE means?)
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?!
5. yes but i didnt say its dos...i sayd in the dos and not cmp im studiing computer sience thatfor i'm not a nob...and the answer is yes i tryed to modify the device info, language and operator...but had no sucses...atlest i dont know if i hited the ride info...canot upload over the maupdate...and the no id doesent recognise the roms(hehe now thats funny isn it?) =)

poland mda iii rom anyone?
Still trying to understand what you wrote in the #18th post [approaching to end of point 2 ]
In the meanwhile link to polish rom you have... in post #3.
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)

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 ?
