Have fun on wiki

yes u can put WM5 on the M2000. Suggest one of the Helmi roms (do a search). u will need to CID unlock first (search for lokiwiz).
thankyou
so i can i use the all in one unlock tool for the first part before i upgrade? (is this cid unlock?)
which helmi version (1.3.2 beta)
1. 32mb Paging With 16mb Ramdisk
2. 16mb Paging with 32mb Ramdisk
also a link (or even better tell me ) to a simple how to would be amazing
once again cheers helpful people i know how irritating these things can be to answer again and again

If u read the first page of both Helmi's rom postings u should be able to decide which is best for u. Again the first page of the Lokiwiz post will tell u what to do. You don't really need to read the entire thread. I upgraded about 5 weeks ago and it was very simple. If u have any specific questions when u start ask away.
ok couldnt find the lokowiz , so is the universal unlocker ok?
also couldnt understand the extrom bit in the wiki where it states open a command prompt (no good with c) to choose my network
"#
Modify the operator in the ROM as needed:
* Determine your operator Information e.g.: "T-MOB101", or "Vodafone", or O2. See GetDeviceData.
*
Open a command prompt, go to the folder where the ROM file resides (nk.nbf) and execute: SetOperator ???
(where ??? is your operator)
# Copy the nk.nbf file to folder that match ur device (PH20B/PH20B1)"

Try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=265928&highlight=lokiwiz for Lokiwiz.
I will assume u r using XP. Start, run, cmd and u r now at the command prompt. See GetDeviceData to obtain the code of your network operator.
Assume nk.nbf resides in mydir\mysubdir then at command prompt type "cd c:\mydir\mysubdir".
Then type "setoperator xxxxxx"
where xxxxx is your network provider ID.
U can copy the nk.nbf file to folder that match ur device (PH20B/PH20B1) using XP.
Ok I get SetOperator is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file , im doing this in xp and i went to the right folder (C:\New Folder\WM2k5_AKU3.2_32mb_v1.3.2) , the nk.nbf and readme is there is that correct? or should it be done in the PH20B folder (i see a setoperator batchfile in there?? As PH20B appears to be the correct folder for my model.
also is it the lokiwiz 0.3 i need to use? isnt it just for the wizard??
Once again thanks for the help , your a star
*edit* moved it into the PH20B folder and did the command it worked , is this wrong??

Copy nk.nbf to the PH20B dir and run setoperator from there. I think Lokiwiz will unlock several HTC devices. Can someone confirm what tool he needs to CID unlock the BA?
The Blueangel does not and furthermore CANNOT be Cid unlocked, as they were made beofre manufacturers began CID locking devices, so ignore whatever that guy said - he obviously doesnt know what he is talking about. follow the wiki and you will be fine
so i just need to update the rom as via the wiki?
also does the extrom folder need to go on the sd? as i have yet to get one?
should i unlock the sim before or after the upgrade?
Do i need to update the radio or bt stack? and if so what versions are most reliable??
thanks

yes, i recommend Either of Helmi's current rom, AKU 3.2 if you dont use any 3rd party PIM management software/Microsoft Voice Command, AKU 2.3 if you do.
EXTROM: You dont /need/ extrom folder on the SD card, that just automates the process. in your situation i would read the cfg.txt and do what it does manually + what optional ones you want.
Sim unlock: no idea if it works in WM5 as i unlocked mine pre-upgrade so for the sake of me being able to help you do it first
Radio: Myself and many others find that Radio 1.13.10 (on the FTP) works best with WM5, i would reccomend upgrading it at the same time as the rom (put radio.nbf in the same directory as the rest of the rom upgrade)
Bluetooth stack: Is part of the OS so it will be upgraded anyway when you go to WM5
Hope thats everything, if not just ask
big big thanks man.
so with AKU 3.2 most things work? installing software , games etc?
this radio BA_BRPT_Radio_11310.exe? well the .nbf of that version not the exe?
is this the operator name to put in the rom?
Orange ORANG001
or this -
ORANG001
So I install the cabs by putting them on the ppc and running them yes , eg i would use the orange gprs and mms cabs from OPERATOR but dont need any others? Im a little hazy to what I need? after that im ok to pick what i want , just wanna know if theres anything important in the EXTROM OR ADDON folders that is needed(what being a noob(i do hate that word lol ) )
sorry for going on and on
Yes, the only problem with AKU3.2 is that the PIM system (calender/contacts) is different so 3rd party version + MS VC dont work
EXTROM: i would use all the cabs in extrom, but instead of the autoconfig ones use the orange cabs. i would also reccomend using the d3d addon cab.
'ORANG001' (without quotes) is your operator thing.
BA_BRPT_Radio_11310.exe includes the .nbf file, i usually open them with winrar (http://www.win-rar.com) but winzip might work too.
yah i got only the .nbf from the ftp , i put this in the ph20b folder correct? and it will auto install with the rest?
also this may sound stupid but will the BA take a 2gb/4gb SD card as I read everywhere it takes 1gb ( these may be old reviews of the phone )
radio.nbf: thats right
SD: i've got no idea, biggest i have is 1gb, sorry

The biggest SD card I have is also 1GB.
However I do have a 2GB Mini SD card and this works fine with the adaptor in the BA.
roy8846, I apologise for the duff info on the CID. I was travelling this week and only had my PDA's available to browse for the answers you needed. I noticed nobody else had replied so started to offer my advice. I have a BA, Wizard & a Prophet and have sim unlocked and CID unlocked (where applicable) in recent months. I was obviously mixed up by suggesting Lokiwiz for the BA.
Even though mini SD's cards are a bit more expensive I would pay the extra (then it will work in both slots). However some newer PDA's are now using Micro SD's.
i tried to upgrade but got a checksum error when running BAupgradeUT.exe , any1 have any ideas???
Bump (sorry if this is frowned on )

Hi,
I'm trying to add a couple of things to the extended rom of my PDA2K, I've unlocked the extened rom but can't find config.txt in it.
Has anyone else unlocked the extended rom of their PDA2K? If so is there a config.txt in it?
Thanx
There is definitely a config.txt in there. Since I have an XDA2S, it also has an autoconfig.txt file for carrier customizations.
Could someone post extROM cab files for XDA2s from O2
autoconfig.txt

can you post that autoconfig.txt file here please, so i can take a look at it ?
thx
The isn't an autoconfig file. There is an autorun which reads and acts upon the Config.txt file. This is from imate
In Imate PDA2K there's no config.txt. The ExtROM is set up indifferent way. Imate has done that way since ROM 166 for XDAII. The setup.exe do the job
Sorry for the dis-information.

I stuck the config file into the PDA2K and did a hard reset but there was no effect to the setup process. The file was ignored
I had also put the Blue Tooth patch in the extended rom and it showed up in the menu of the InstallCabFile program where you choose your operator. when I chose the patch, it installed everything except for any operator settings.

Looking at the config text file not much different other than the Fax Cab file from the final .187 rom from o2. So looks like there is no real gain in it although would still like to have a play with the cab files if anyone has the external rom on their PC to upload.
Is the PDA2K the same as MDA3? I´m a little bit confused about this name.
If so, how did you unlocked the Ext. Rom? I just can made mine visible, but i can not write to it. The Unlock like on MDA2 does not work here...

Go to the file you want start. Then in the Contextmenu of the file click "Open with" and there you can enter the parameters.
Replying to the orginal post.
I'm fairly new to playing around with Ext-roms but here is what I have found so far.
Saqibj - It would seem that the models supplied by different Carriers have been created differently.
I've got 2 PDA2Ks. Which have been sourced in 2 different countries from different suppliers.
Both have
Rom version 1.12.22 WWE
Radio version 1.02.00
And seem to be identical hardware wise.
Device 1 has a std Imate config with no carrier customisations.
Device 2 has a modified extrom with preset network connections, splash screens etc.
Device 1 has a config.txt the other doesn't.
Most of the cabs are common to both devices
(I still don't know what half of them do - but I'm learning from other posts on this site).
Both have an Autorun.exe. - but they are different.
I suspect that the one that doesn't have a config.txt, has had the autorun.exe modfied to load the cabs etc - which obviously should prevent alteration/modification.
This could explain why you don't have a config.txt. If you are unhappy with your extrom contents, I think you can download the unmodified ROM contents direct from club-imate. But I've never done this.
Good luck
TomLin:
Thanx for the explanation, Would it be possible for you to post the autorunfile and the config.txt files, I want ro try to replace them on my ext_rom and see if it works that way.
Thanx
OK, I have a Cingular SX66, I flashed it using the WWE Versions With Arabic Customizing WITHOUT the ExtROM, meaning I kept the Cingular ExtROM, no problem, flashed find.
After that, I flashed the RadioROM 1.06.02 ALONE, and right now, when I hard reset, it says NO GSM, in other words, it became a PDA only, phone function is no longer avaiable. I tried to flash other i-Mate ROMs, but it keep says Country ID is not correct, N-N-12-12-12. I ran GetDeviceData.exe, it comes out like this:
PH20B1 B 1 WWE E 1.31.00 0 0 1.31.112
So now, what is my country ID so that I can use the xda3nbftool.exe? It used to be XGULA001, or is there a way to execute the program without checking the country code, or a ROM with no country code checking.
TIA for all of your helps!
Still looking for help, tried O2 launch ROM, wrong Mobile ID error.
BTW, this is the DeviceDate.txt, before and after:
Before:
PH20B1 B 1 WWE E XGULA001 1.20.10 1 0 1.20.115 1.02.10 02.10
After:
PH20B1 B 1 WWE E 1.31.00 0 0 1.31.112
Nevermind, problem solved by flash another RadioROM from QTEK.
Paper weight
JRSmooth, I just saw your posts. I'm experiencing the exact same thing!!
I tried to upgrade my phone during the Christmas vacasion and haven't been able to use it ever since. The radio says FAILED during the startup sequence (which takes forever after the "upgrade")
How exactly did you fix it??

Well your situation maybe different from mine.
The radioROM I used was corrupted, I kind of knew it because when I flashed it, it did not show what version of radioROM am I flashing into. Now, what error message if you try to flash it again? Try to use a different radioROM from the same mfg. as your last flash.
Hope this help.
Well, it's a kind of embarrassing situation...
I've flashed my GSM device with a CDMA radio stack... It shows up as FAILED if you look at the version.
Hello,
Because your device IDs are different, eg, PH20B1 as opposed to PH20B0, you'll have to make a batch file to fix this. Here are a few instructions I threw together but REMEMBER - I take no responsibility for any damage done to your device. You are following these instructions below at your own risk!
1.) Download a full ROM upgrade file of your choice. I recommend the i-mate one in this folder here - ftp://xda:[email protected]/Imate_PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP/ but feel free to use another.
2.) Extract the files from your full ROM by opening it with Winzip or Winrar and dumping it's contents into a folder. From now on it will be refered to as "your folder".
3.) Copy the file "GetDeviceData.exe" from your folder to your device and run it. It wont appear to do anything but it has!
4.) From your PC, browse to the Windows folder on your device. Copy the file "DeviceData.txt" to your folder.
5.) Open the "DeviceData.txt" file on your PC. You will see what ROMs your device has installed on it. Mine reads (without the blank/null characters):
PH20B0 B
WWE E
O2___001
1.22.00 0 0
1.22.162
1.06.00 06.00
The "PH20B0" is the device id, the "WWE" part is the country code and the "O2___001" part is the operator ID. Identify this information from YOUR "DeviceData.txt" file as your devices are different from mine and you will need this info for your upgrade. Make sure you write them down because if it's incorrect, you'll get errors and your device will hang!!!
6.) Download the file attached to this post, "Fix.zip" and extract it to your folder. Make sure you have the two files "xda3nbftool.exe" and "Fix.bat" in the root of the folder, not in a folder of it's own!
7.) Edit the file in your folder "fix.bat" using notepad (DON'T RUN IT YET). Replace the words "PH20B0" with your device ID, "WWE" with your country code and "O2___001" with your operator ID. Now, exit this file and save your changes.
8.) Run "fix.bat" from you folder. A Command promt window should appear and process the ROM files. This will change the device ID, country code and the operator ID to the ones you specified, thus allowing the upgrade to work on your device.
AT THIS STAGE, IF YOU CONTINUE, YOU WILL LOSE ALL THE DATA AND PROGRAMS ON YOUR DEVICE!!! BACKUP ALL FILES THAT YOU NEED!!!
9.) Run the "BaUpgradeUt.exe" file from your folder. This will start the upgrade process, so follow the on-screen instructions. During this you will see a screen with "From:" and "To:" showing what versions you have got to what versions you're going to. Make sure this data is correct and then continue.
10.) Once the upgrade has finished you'll be instucted to do a hard reset.
YOUR DONE - You should now have the upgraded ROM!!!
Good luck with this and let me know how you get on!
Regards,
Dom
I got a device of a friend. I'm not sure he used a wrong ROM image or the upgrade failed but it ended up with no Radio or ext ROM version in the boot screen .. only Rom 1.12.
More over, running getdevicedata.exe gives empty file with only "PH20" written there!
.. and any rom flashing gives operator id error.
my question is, can I update the Rom files to have no operator ID ?
Biso007,
In theory, you should just be able to follow my instuctions above but instead of using the standard PH20B1 or PH20B0 in the -sd switch ot the batch file, use PH20. This should allow you to continue with the upgrade process.
Regards,
Dom

Hi,
As I mentioned in another thread, there is no info on how to save/backup/extract you existing ROM. I tried to use XDA-Tools and created some file with size around 30M. (I named it nk.nb1)
AFAIK, it's only "core" OS rom. So I want to capture now Radio and Ext. ROM in the same format.
Anyway, since if I do something wrong, I will loose it forever after I flush it with something else, so I would like to have more info and understanding.
Cheers,
Gorby
I am a bit lost on what you want to do.
Ext rom can be unlocked zipped and saved.
Both os and radio can be install one at a time.
Thus you can cook a rom by using radio and os from other ship files. (if you have a password).
The saving of rom files (as in a rom dump) is explained somewere. Do a search for rom dump.
Also check
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=84478#84478
There is no info about that on wiki as nobody has written any.
what i want to do is to backup my original OS, radio and ext. rom. by now i know that i can unlock my ext rom and copy it to a safe place. however, i m not sure that if restoring extended rom from this manual backup i will be able to achieve exact state of original rom. for example, dates of files will be different, reported version number could be different.
so i want to backup image of ext. rom.
moreover, i want to upgrade primarily because german interface sux for me and i need english one. so i need to backup all 3 roms.
i tried to use xda-tools but it only saves os and probably wrong because the size is too small (around 30M).
i figured out that i probably have to use d2s command from bootloader prompt. so i got an SD-card today.
it is still not clear to me how can i make 3 .nbf files that can be used later to restore my original rom with BaUpgradeUt.exe.
in addition, it would be useful for the community if i upload these roms because i didnt see that my model was mentioned here:
Operator code BRIGH102
E-Plus in Germany
OS: 1.22.01
ext: 1.22.756
radio: 1.06.00
btw, i could even write a how-to on dumping blue angel ROMs if i have enough info.
thanks,
Gorby
Well, I was able to get OS image using pmemdump:
Code:
C:\XDA-Tools\Xda Utils\build>pmemdump.exe 0x80000000 0x02000000 nk.nbf
Copying C:\XDA-Tools\Xda Utils\build\itsutils.dll to WCE:\windows\itsutils.dll
CopyProcessMemoryToFile(00000042, 80000000, 02000000, nk.nbf)
Unfortunately, I couldn't dump ext. rom and radio in this way:
Code:
C:\XDA-Tools\Xda Utils\build>pmemdump.exe 0x60000000 0x00300000 radio.nbf
CopyProcessMemoryToFile(00000042, 60000000, 00300000, radio.nbf)
ERROR: ITReadProcessMemory - Attempt to access invalid address.
C:\XDA-Tools\Xda Utils\build>pmemdump.exe 0x70000000 0x01080000 ms.nbf
CopyProcessMemoryToFile(00000042, 70000000, 01080000, ms.nbf)
ERROR: ITReadProcessMemory - Attempt to access invalid address.
Perhaps, I have to specify another process context with -p option. Which one?
Thanks,
Gorby
You dont need to dump the EXT Rom.
Unlock the Exteneded rom, copy it to your desktop, rar it and upload it to this site for others.
When you need it back.
Unlock it , Un rar it , copy it to Extended_rom, Hard reset.
As for the Radio, download a copy of the 1.06.00 of the FTP site or extract it from a 1.06.00 ship.
OK. I tried to backup to SD-card and restored from it to check that it works. No problem.
I just can't easily dump it to files, but that I could figure out later. Important that backup/restore is working fine!
Anyway, having backup on a separate SD-card is not a bad idea anyway... I just need a bit smaller card instead of "misuse" of 512M card.
I'll upload my extended rom to the ftp.
Cheers,
Gorby
New Extended_Rom
Here we go finally:
/BlueAngel/Extended_Roms/Version_GER/E-Plus_Germany_QTEK_BRIGH102_Ext_Rom_122725_GER.zip
My device is:

And btw, it was successfullt flashed with:
i-mate_PDA2k_Arabic_13100_112_10600_SHIP but with radio replaced by 1.06.02.
Thanks for help and regards,

PS: I was able to backup restore all ROM's to CD-card but still need a way to copy them to PC.
Update MDAIII (PH20B1) with PH20B file?
What do you think will happen, if itried to upgrade my PH20B1 (MDA III with no camera) with the latest PH20B update from TMobile Germany?
The modifications in the EditFix.bat would look like this:
xda3nbftool -sd PH20B1 -sl GER -so T-MOB101 ms_.nba
xda3nbftool -sd PH20B1 -sl GER -so T-MOB101 nk.nba
xda3nbftool -sd PH20B1 -sl GER -so T-MOB101 radio_.nba
Will this have success or will it kill my device?
Thanks for your help,
Bubisch
Dont think you will have a problem, however I am not sure if we know the password for that update. It seems you are a t-mobile customer, all you need to do is run the upgrade (with out fix.bat)
Upgrade does not work!
No, it does not work. My device is a PH20B1, the update is for PH20B. No go with nbftool, might be the wrong passwords. For information: i'm O2-Customer, just bought it with TMOB-Branding, because XDA III is not out until today...
Hum, thats a new one for me.
So you are saying that even if you follow the wiki info using the Imate 162 wwe and the fix.bat you cant upgrade.
q1 what does your devicedata read
q2 what is your error message
PH20B1
I followed the Wiki, but i didn't try the WWE (want to stay with german language), but I tried the official TMOB Upgrade. I even tried updating just the radio rom. But it didn't work.
NBFtool still has the opinion, that its the wrong password, Upgrade Utility says, Wrong Model ID (Error 100).
Another Fix.bat from another forum says:
NBF: Wrong password
UpgrUt..: Radio Checksum Error (Error ID 123).
My device data reads the following string:
PH20B1|GER|T-MOB101|1.06.01|1.06.125|1.00.00
Pech Gehabt!
Ok a recap, you have tried the offical rom from t-mobile and it falis due to the fact that this rom was built for the PH20B and not the PH20B1.
The GER seems to have the new encription so the tool wont work on it yet.
I Have so far only been able to find one GER rom which I posted on wiki, there is talk that T-Mobile austria has one which seems to be outdated (read that one on some thread in this forum).
We have a tool in the works that will fix this problem as it can handel both the old and the new encription thus you will be able to build your own rom by adding all the parts.
What you need to find is a ship.exe for the PH20B1, this you should be able to use and delete the ndf and only leave the radio one (from the FRA 1.06.02) this will solve your radio problem.
Thats about all I can do for you given what we have at the momenta and the fact you want a GER Rom.
Waiting for more...
Okay then, all i can do is wait for this. But its ok. I think your work on this is great. Let me know, if i can help you.
Thank you very much.

He he, i know but i dont want to intefere with your work.
Ill update it a little.
I made small program which can merge .NBs into .NBH. Generated .NBH, of course, is not properly signed but enough for feeding SSPL.
Give small script which contains .NB filenames, model name, CID and so, to the program. Output file is RUU_signed.nbh.
Sample script included.
C:\>nbhgen sample.txt
NBH Generator ver0.1 by bot
00_IPL.nb
01_SPL.nb
02_MainSplash.nb
03_SubSplash.nb
04_ExtROM.nb
05_GSM.nb
06_OS.nb
Completed.
enjoy,
bot
Hi
Sorry, but your tool didn't generate an .nbh file.
I've tried to run this script:
HERM300
HTC__001
1.23.707.6
USA
100,00_IPL.nb
200,01_SPL.nb
600,02_MainSplash.nb
601,03_SubSplash.nb
900,04_ExtROM.nb
300,05_GSM.nb
400,06_OS.nb
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Your tool starts, but there is no .nbh. edit: It's my mistake.Ignore my post.Sorry.
What's the use of "100,00_IPL.nb ?
Great work, it is the missing link for using SSPL with RadioBoorloader 0108 for the Hermes!
Thanks a lot!
Really Great work!
Great work!
Where I can find tools for sign *.nb?
Can you made patch for mamaich tools? Now addfile.exe not working
I confirm this tool as working. Just had breeze radio successfully flashed (one more time). And it is much more handy than manual assembling
thanx.

Thanks, now I understand
Hi bot
Thanks !I think you may do universal NBF generator .
You may add in sample.txt one parameter packet size ( Trynity Hermes 64 ) in Atremis 1024 etc
Great tool and very useful, thanks!
does nbhgen work on Artemis and Herald?

On Artemis the singature size is 1024, no idea about Herald.... i think it will not work but haven't tested it.
To make the signature 1024 you can do it like this (at least until bot releases a version which allows you to modifi the sig. size):
Code:
nbhgen.exe file.txt
perl nbh2dbh.pl RUU_signed.nbh RUU_signed.dbh
ImageHash.exe -raw RUU_signed.dbh RUU_signedNEW.nbh 1024
It will popup a window asking you to select the proper certificate to sign your file, if you don't have one you can import for example a test certificate from windows mobile SDK.
Any one guide for artemis...so that many people who hv bricked their Orbit can make them alive..
is there a possibility to use this nbhgen.exe for making a backup of the current Excalibur ROM?
I have a german XDA Cosmo running the original XDA Cosmo ROM.
And I also managed to make a backup with bkondisk
BUT what I have not been able to find out so far:
how to make an installable package out of that?
this nbhgen sounds good but how (if ever) can I use it for the Excalibur?
Do I have to sign the resulting .nbh or maybe will it work unsigned with the engineering SPL 1.11???
I want to have a backup before flashing other ROMs - and believe me I want flashing the Dash ROM (or the german MDA Mail ROM) sooo bad since I've heard that TomTom 6 runs perfectly on it (unlike on Cosmo ROM where it's nearly unusable )
I'm sorry, but I stil don't get it and can not find anything inside the wiki. How is this tool supposed to work when I have an OS.nb for example?
Do you leave fields blank if you don't want to perform that part of the upgrade? For example if you were not going to upgrade anything other than the OS would you leave everything except the last line blank like this (sample sample):
TRIN100
HTC__001
1.23.707.6
USA
400,06_OS.nb
Also, can the the first lines be anything? I assume they are descriptors on line one and two followed by your own version #.

I second that thought.
It seems to not work on Windows vista.
Any idea ?
Hi,
I have a nb0 file that I want to turn into a nbh. Is a nb0 file simply a nb but the OS part?
Can this tool do what I am looking for? The problem is I don't want to add a IPL, SPL etc - nor do I want to go to SP1.01.
thanks!
@daveh85: nb0 is the same as nb. Yes, you can convert it to nbh using this tool.
Hi,
I don't understand how to make the sample.txt.
I'm trying to create a Big Storage of the last LVSW's ROM.
I have the following files :
00_MainSplash.bmp
00_MainSplash.nb
01_SubSplash.bmp
01_SubSplash.nb
02_ExtROM.nb
03_OS.nb
How do I create a sample.txt file to create the RUU_signed.nbh file to flash on a Hermes 200 ??
Thanks for enlighting me
This would be your "sample.txt":
Code:
HERM***
SuperCID
Murcielago
WWE
600,00_MainSplash.nb
601,01_SubSplash.nb
700,02_ExtROM.nb
400,03_OS.nb
Hi,
i got just one question...
is it possible to flash the WM6 OS to the MDA 3 ???
or is it just possible to update my Windows Mobile 2003 Second Editon ???
EDIT:
There is 1 other 1.42 ROMs from anyone
T-Mobile Germany 14201_116_11300_GER
the link for this ROM is dead
in theory it is possile, but in practice it is not because we do not have WM6 rom for it (answer for your next question, no it can not be ported)

thx, for your reply first...
so ok then i let this go with WM6 on mda3 ^^
the other thing is then i want to got WM5(Windows Mobile 2005) on it...
i think this is possible with the file:
Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU3[1].5_v1.4.CF2.R2.rar
am i right ?
the other thing is, all the shiped files from "wiki" cant be downlaoded any more...
so can someone say me how to get my current OS in ROM
(Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition GER ) bakuped, that i can get this one back to my MDA3 ???
Read this.
It can help U a lot.
Copy the nk.nbf file to folder that match ur device (PH20B/PH20B1)
witch folder is mean with that ?
i only got: (in Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU3[1].5_v1.4.CF2.R2 )
folder ExtROM
MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
nk.nbf
RUU.conf
RUU.dll
another problem is i cant open the "nk.nbf" with ER2003Edit_1_4_26...
because hes telling me he need a password that i didnt got
thx for reply !
EDIT:
i have to get on the "nk.nbf" to change my provider...
solutions
Easy solution: just run BaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe in folder U've got!
Other easy solutions: try this rom.
Hard solution:
Get SetOperator.bat, xda3nbftool.exe and GetDeviceData.exe from xplode rom arh. Then copy GetDeviceData.exe to ur pda and run it, find DeviceData.txt file in windows folder on pda(\Windows\DeviceData.txt) open it with notepad, U'll get something like this "PH20B 0 B GER R T-MOB101 1.12.00 0 0 1.12.100 1.02.00 02.00" where "T-MOB101" is ur operator code. Copy SetOperator.bat & xda3nbftool.exe near nk.nbf and run SetOperator.bat with operator code as parameter(example: "D:\roms\baniaczek_v2\SetOperator.bat T-MOB101")
Now U can flash ur device just run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
;-)
Good luck!
