Hi everyone, I'm going to upgrade radio rom from 1.06.02 italian to 1.08 (I found on ftp site).
I have two questions for BA masters:
1) If something go wrong, the previosly backup can restore precedent software? AKA if radio 1.08 fails, with restore is possible to go back to 1.06.02?
2) I have vodafone italy as provider. Anyone knows the code to put inside radio.nbf?
Thanks a lot
hi,
i looked around for instructions on how to upgrade the ROM but i couldn't find any.
i have a very old ROM and i want to upgrade it to the latest ROM that includes the A2DP, etc.
how do i go about installing it? is it like installing a regular application? i have a Qtek 9100.
thanks,
Re: Simple guide - Unlock Vario and update to other ROMs
For anyone else who has had the same problem as we did, follow these simple instructions:
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).
Sorry to you gurus for the lengthy explanation, but some of us are still relatively inexperienced to this and a thorough (if you can call it that) explanation of the processes will really be appreciated. I certainly have done when some of guys broke it down to me in the past.
I'm hoping this ROM will not dissapoint me as the others have done, as I've been getting quite frustrated and angry about the whole WM5 & HTC thing.
Good luck. :wink:

thanks for finding the informaiton for me!
Thanks for the breakdown. I am new to all this, and not too au fait with all the developer terms, and it can be quite intimidating!
I have an O2 branded XDA Mini S and want to use it with Vodafone SIM card. The device is unlocked, so I can make and receive calls - good start!
However, I want to get rid of all the O2 branding and install the vodafone GPRS/SMS/MMS etc. settings. From what I've read on the forums, the O2 stuff slows the unit down, and it will all be irrelevant anyway. Does the extended ROM you refer to above then get the unit into an "unbranded" state?
Basically, I just want the unit without any trace of O2 (boot splach screen, O2 active etc.) and to be able to put the Vodafone settings in manually...
Thanks
Thanks mackaby007 - managed to update rom using your instructions, and got rid of O2 screen using aWizard!
Unlock to Lock
Hi,

Thanks

No, you need to do CID unlock only once.

I have the exact same problem. Both Loki and aWizard don't work.
Typically when you want to downgrade your phone to an earlier (or shipped version) you need to first downgrade it to Button's 1.05, then you can "upgrade" to back to the desired 1.x or 2.x ROM.
Is that what you're asking?

how is possible to downgrade the wizard phone to 1.05?
I have a T-mob wizard phone with inside IPL 2.21.0001,GSM 2.19.11, OS 2.21.2.6.
Have I to follow the below step?
1)dovngrade to 1.05 . Is necessary only OS or boot loader and ratio too?
2)perform again the flashing procedure.

looks to me that you have a "G4" chipset, I can tell because you are reporting the IPL 2.21.0001 and not just IPL 2.21 Maybe someone else can verify this???? If so please please DONT try to flash before you have researched "G4" chipset flashing first
Dear sir,
you true!!
I have just read a post were is explained that if you have G4 chip is not possible to downgrade or upgrade the ROM.
Bootloaders (IPL/SPL) with .0001 at the end of the version are G4 flash chips.
This info will be very halpefully for everybody need to perform any flashing action on wizard phone.
Do you confirm that is actually not possible to solve this issue?

Alex

I am very confused...
OK.
My wizard have G4 chip inside.
I was been able to remove the SIM lock.
If I try to CID unlock the device I receive CID unlocked successfull but after a ROM update the device stuck at startup.
Now...if I pay on http://www.imei-check.co.uk/ 20£ will be possible to change the ROM?
JAFWM
Hi,
I discovered a SW named JAFWM that is able to flsh evry ROM.
Is this true?
@squarna - Sorry mate but TBH with myself not having a G4 chipset Ive not taken much notice of any post relating to them, if no one else jumps in soon try starting a new thread with the title like "G4 chipset What roms work?" or something and good luck!
Hi,
I have recently upgraded my SPV M2000 to the M5000 and have donated (for a small sum), my old M2000 to my mother-in-law.
I was wondering, if I could flash the orange branded phone as it is with a t-mobile or generic flash.
I have a few reasons for this, mainly the orange software that is bundled is causing all sorts of problems with T-mobile, and also, that each time you reset the phone, it loads them all back on!
The current information on the device is;
Operator Version : 5.31.1.124
ROM Version : 1.31.00 WWE
ROM Date : 12/13/04
Radio Version : 1.06.02
Protocol Version : 1337.38
ExtROM Version : 1.31.124 WWE
Thanks in advance.
Hi
You need to spend some time in wiki and the ext rom kitchen to understand the branding (its the EXT rom that has all of that).
So if you dont wont to reload everything when you hard reset then you need to flush the ext rom or only have what you need in it. We call it cooking.

There are almost a week that my Qtek 9100 is unable to connect to my Phone network. It keeps searching and searching. When I click on Manual Network Selection, I receive an error msg: "Unable to read setting from the network. Try viewing settings later ou disconnect data connetion and try again". What should I do?
ROM version 2.24.10.1
ROM date 4/17/06
Radio Version 4.1.13.12
ExtROM version 2.24a Mr. Clean
The SIM card is ok (I´ve tried on another mobile)
Thx
Did you already tried a (òh , ooh) hard reset or reflash? Otherwise it seems you're phone-receiver circuit is defect; you've got to go for repairs...
I´ve tried both: hard reset and reflashing with new ROM....
Nothing
This started after my battery runned out of power....
It didn't occur by any change after a new update..?
And what about you're radio version: isn't it your protcolversion? So, what radio version had you before and which one now?
(btw seems stupid but... try new sim unlock)
No, I upgraded to the new ROM after the problem....
I did a mistake about the versions: My radio version is 02.25.11 and the protocol version is 4.1.13.12....
I really don´t know the number of the older version of the radio, but it was working fine.
btw, the mobile was bought unlocked...
Thx, anyway.....
¹ (...but did you try sim unlockin' again...?)
² (off course you tested it on other locations...?)
I'm trying to SIM unlocking again, using Lockwiz02b, as I downgraded to ROM 1.5.4.2 WWE, but I'm receiving an error msg: "Could not update itsutils.dll to the currente version, is it inuse?"
BTW, as I upgraded to ROM 2.24 in english (the original ROM was spanish) should I understand that my mobile is CID unlocked?
(Why did you downgrade, that's not necessary for simunlock?)
For your utills.dll fault: maybe you need lokiwiz0.3
http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...=0&postorder=asc&highlight=lokiwiz0+3&start=0
...with lokiwiz you unlock CID because of brand crossing ROM use, in order to prevent trouble (once CID unlocked it stayes unlocked) For language change it shouldn't be necessary.
For SIM unlocking you also can use i.e. attached file.
Hi,
My boss has just bought a Wizard branded as a Grundig GR660 by Movistar, and he wants it in English, I've read all about the bootloader problem with 2.21.0001, it has Rom version 2.22.5.2ESN. If I try the downgrade i get a error 300 message.
Is there ANY way i can change the language to English????
Cheers!!!!
I have the same G4 device as well, there is no need for CID unlock to upgrade the phone to 2.xx rom (any languages) version. However, you might need to sim unlock the phone using Lokiwiz03a though. In order to upgrade the ROM, just follow this instrution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=56088
Alternatively, you could try my new cooked Rom Wizard_Love 2.26 (worldwide English version) which is for G4 device : ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Wizard/Roms/Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii+CF2.rar
Thankyou very much, worked a treat!!!!!!! 8) 8) 8)
