You need to read quite a bit before you jump in with both feet.
To get you started have a look at these threads:

A couple of things to start with. First of all get you device back working. As mentioned by epimazzo above, force your device into bootloader and flash a stock ROM not a cooked one. Read the thread.
Once you have got your device working start reading before making any more rash decisions about upgrading to WM6 (especially when the file name hints that it is for a Prophet and not a Wizard). There is only one leaked Crossbow ROM for a Wizard. This has been cooked a few times (Orwell, PDAViet, Underground). There are many threads on the merrits of each ROM but you need to read read read before you end up with a brick.
Fixed Boot crash problem
Thank you Guys for all the help; I got it back running.
formatted : Push the network button and the voice button and reset then release the rest and you get the balck screen that has the press send button and that formats Wizard and then
Push the Power + Voice + Camera and I get the Red Green and White screen. quickly Update the ROM to the origunal one I have T-Mobile. It worked. You guys are the best. I found 5._Underground_edition_Crossbow_ROM But I was not able to flash it. I need to unlock the CID but I read that I would have to down grade the Wizard and then Unlock the CID. I am still looking for the old ROM.i think I found it. If anybody has a better way to Unlock the CID please tell me.
Thank you a Million tiles for all the Help guys.

Did I kill the Wizard? :-(

[SOLVED! See page 4]
I have a Cingular 8125, which I hadn't used for a while (got a Trinity
I am trying to set it up for my wife, so I attempted to unlock it and upgrade to WM6. It is a G3 (it had 2.26). I had upgraded it several times before. but was never able to bring it down to 1.xx in order to unlock it.
So, I started trying to downgrade it, but basically, every time it entered bootloader, it seemed to lose connection and it just timed out on the PC, without ever going to the update bar on the bootloader screen.
I ran IPL_SPL_3.08, and it upgraded fine. But still no go on downgrading.
Finally, I ran Shelltool (bug fixed) and managed to flash to OS 1.5.4.2. But, after the hard reset, it just stays on the blue Cingular screen (showing IPL 3.08; SPL 3.08; GSM 02.47.11; OS 1.5.4.2.)
I have tried flashing again with an original Cingular WWE ROM (RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1.exe), with the 1.5.4.2 ROM, even with a WM6 ROM (again, through Shelltool.) I have placed it in a powered cradle, have tried both Shelltool and RUU flashes, both while in the blue Cingular screen, and while in Bootloader mode. I have disconnected and reconnected each time, and rebooted many times (both the Wizard and the PC.) I have hard-reset. I have also tried both with USB selected and unselected in Activesync.
The Shelltool seems to freeze. The official RUU gives "ERROR [296]: UPGRADE ONLY. The NBF file cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please get another NBF file." Or, alternately, it gives "ERROR [264]: CONNECTION."
Any ideas if this is repairable?
(Or should I cry (or take a hammer to the Wizard:-((
Mine is a 2.25 and it's a G4.. Isnt 2.26 a G4?
I think it was 2.26 (it may have been something like 2.27....), but it definitely didn't have the .000 at the end. I thought that the Wizards without the .000 were G3. Did I screw up?

2.25.0001 or 2.26.0001 would be a G4
2.25 or 2.26 would be a G3

I thought I read somewhere that IPL/SPL 3.08 was a bad convert from a Charmer? If this is true and the Charmer bootloaders are different than the Wizard bootloaders then you may have put yourself in a bind.
The fact that you can still get past bootloader is promising even though the phone doesn't finish booting.
Try flashing from the bootloader (tricolor IPL/SPL screen with USB in the corner)
Thanks. I've been trying to flash in both bootloader or "blue" screen, but no go so far. I just tried the official Cingular .nbf through shelltool: it spent about 30 minutes (in bootloader,) then it stopped responding. It's been doing this forever now.
Any other options left?

You CAN'T use shelltool in boot loader mode! it needs the OS and the TRUFFS to read and write to the phone.
Any phone that doesn't go past the boot loader must be fixed with mtty, RUU or SD card...
Thanks for the info. I've been reading about mmty and just downloaded it. But I only have a 4GB card handy (from my Trinity.) I might be able to find my old 2GB one at home.
Edit: Well, this is what I just found: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308772&highlight=mtty+wizard
It seems that the IPL_SPL 3.08 might be a real problem. I'll try the card flash, but based on the above thread, I am not holding my breath.
If anyone has a suggestion or a solution, please let me know.
Thanks!
BTW, if the problem is indeed with the IPL_SPL 3.08, then perhaps the suggestion that we upgrade to it (in red) here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435 should be removed, so that we don't get more expensive bricks.
Just to clear up the question about 3.08 IPL/SPL, it isn't an issue at all. It's been tested thoroughly to work well, better than 2.26.

After I unlocked my wizard and before I try any new ROM, I always burn the latest German wizard ROM with 3.08 IPL/SPL "ruu_vario_aku3.3_3822_382120_026911_tmo_de_ger_ship". Then I downgrade the Radio ROM to Cingular 2.25.11. Then I burn my ROM of choice. I've found it works best for me. I've never had a problem with 3.08.

What are the grounds for such a comparison? How to tell that an SPL works better than another? As far as i know the SPL is there to initialise the hardware and to apply security restrictions.
What i'd like to know is if anyone has been successful in downgrading IPL/SPL from 3.xx to 2.xx as itsme once said that there was a security in newer SPL's preventing downgrading (i must look for it...)
cheers
O.K., so maybe it's not 3.08, but something has sure gone bad.
I am trying to use mtty 1.1.42.538, but see only Port 1, Port 2 and USB. When I type in \\.\WSCUSBSH001 I get a message that it cannot open the \\.\WSCUSBSH001 port.
I tried resetting as described in message #7 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=264652&highlight=mtty1.42, but nothing happened.
I also tried choosing USB, then typed in r2sd all and again, nothing happened - I just get CMD> again....
So, can anyone think of anything else I can do, or should I just drop it from the 4th floor?

Both ar 3.08, and I have the feeling that this is why I cannot flash the official Cingular ROM over what I have now. Which makes me wonder: is there an official Wizard ROM file combined with the IPL/SPL 3.08? This may at leas allow me to flash.

I had also upgraded my IPL/SPL to 3.08 -- up from the 2.25 on the newest Cingular ROM.
Anytime I've flashed to a WM6 ROM, I've been able to downgrade to the T-Mobile 2.26 ROM -- which changes the IPL/SPL to 2.26 -- with no problems before upgrading to a WM6 ROM. After flashing the WM6, I then go back in and upgrade the IPL/SPL once again to 3.08. It's not failed me yet.
O.K., I've spent the weekend screwing around with this:
If I run any of the original 2.xx ROMs, I get "you need an updated utility" message and then the utility goes to the "Exit" screen. (I am assuming this is because of the 3.08 IPL/SPL.)
mtty tells me I don't have permissions when I tried to load the ROM on a SD card (remember, the 8125 is not SuperCD-ed.). It also does nothing when I type "set 14 0" or "task 28."
But, I found that I can run the XDA Mobile 6 ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310954) and it actually starts updating, but when it gets to 99%, the bar on the 8125 turns red and after a while the Update Utility tells me that the Wizard is not connected anymore.
Got very excited when I tried mattk_r's InGeNeTiCs' ROM(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311144): it started updating, went all the way to 100%, at which point the bar on the 8125 did turn red, however after a period of time the utility gave me the "Congratulations" message and told me I've successfully upgraded. But then, the 8125 reboots, and unfortunately, it still hangs on the boot screen, and it still gives the OS as 1.5.4.2. Have tried a number of times, always the same:-(
Oh, I tried upgrading the Radio only, and it worked: I was able to upgrade to 02.61.11.
So, does it seem like there is hope, and can anyone think of what else I can do?

If I were you I might be talking to IMEI unlockers. Their process works from bootloader and might be able to get you CID unlocked and fix your corrupted CID area, which seems to be your major problem atm. In any case I would contact them and explain your situation and see if they think their software will unlock your phone. If so then you should be good to go once you CID is "uncorrupted" and unlocked.
one question: can You HARD RESET your device?
Do you have "format failed" message?
if so, you have 50/50 per cent for resurrection.
3.08 is not direct problem here anyway..., version is not exactly matter of problem...
(imei? now? lol)...
Thanks!
Yes, I can hard-reset fine and it claims to reformat fine.
Tx for the suggestion - I will contact IMEI (they unlocked my Trinity before the free unlockers were available

ROM flash gone wronge! help!

I was upgrading my t-mobile 8150(?) the k-jam with the new windows mobile 6 and in the middle of it my comp crashed!! now i am stuck at the bootloader mode (3 colored screen) and when i try to redo it i get to 99% and get a 302 error message. i follow the instructions given but keeps going in circles. its a G3 so is my phone bricked or is there a way to save it? i've been looking at this site all day but am now just more confused. lol thanks for your help!
No your phone isn't bricked. As long as you can get into the bootloader screen you should be ok. What you need to do is flash an official carrier rom either tmobile 2.26 or wizard love rom after you that than you can reflash to wm6. look at the stickies in the wizard forums that is where you can find these roms.
Thanks for the info but seems my techno curse continues. I tried the wizard love rom but it was in a different language and whem i tried the tmobile 2.26 i got "error 274 connection." Any more suggestions? Again thanks soo much for an issue I'm sure has been posted here a thouand times.
This happens to me all the time. I always use the Cingular 2.25 rom, it works perfectly and I have an I-mate K-JAM. Then, do the WM6 upgrade, but ensure all of your Norton and Antivirus and background running apps are shut down. Good luck.
yes also take out your mini sd card if you have one. even though its in another language it will work. "AVANTI means next. so just keep hitting that and you will be fine.
hmm been trying to d/l the Cingular 2.25 rom but the link seems to have stoped working...
It;s aaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllliiiiiiiiiiivvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! for now lol Lets see what happens after i install wm6 I couldn't get the cingular rom but i had already dowbloaded the button rom i found here earlier and it worked like a dream!! quick and easy!! thank you all soooooo much!
hi all. one more little thing. after adding the new rom to get it back to life, now the numbers don't match so i can't upgrade to wm6. i have ipl 1.01 spl 2.26. advice?
flash to the tmo 2.26 or cingular 2.25...that will give you an IPL/SPL of 2.xx
then, you can flash to WM6
i want to delete this message. can't find a way to do it.
there's any other way to flash without usb cable?? sorry to bug in this thread but i lost my usb connection somehow and did a hard reset and still doesn't work. my phone charges. and no is not my computer cuz my wifes phone same as mine does sync i have a tmobile mda also known as the cingular 8125.

keep reflashing buttons rom until both ipl/spl are the same number. if they are different, then the flash didn't complete correctly. (it happens often, so it's kinda normal). just keep reflashing. after both ipl/spl are the same, then CID unlock and then update to an official carrier...then flash a wm6.
can anyone help me??
Check if "USB" displayed when in bootloader mode (Camera+reset) with Wizard connected to PC.
If so, you may try to flash another ROM through bootloader.

T-Mobile MDA Compact III Issue
Sorry to tag this thread, couldnt figure out how to create a new one
I have a MDA Compact III issue when trying to upgrade to the ARTEMIS TOUCH 2.1 or 2.0 software
Unfortunatly, my pda was at 49% charge when i first tried, so stage one got to the end, then told me to charge my fone more and ended.
Thus i charge the fone to 75% and re-started. However, upon reconnecting the fone to commence the restart, the USB device was not recognised.
After removing the Active Sync and indeed the USB Driver from the PC and re-installing it, the conenction was re-established, however, it now often drops the connection. Plugging away, i tried the install Step 1 once more, and upon getting to 100% in the cmd part, and then progressing through the wizard, whereby the PDA displayed the progress bar reachinbg 100% (of the unlock stage) the PDA then reboots, and the connection is lost...and doesnt re-establish itself....and then the wizard reports Error [270] : Update Error The image file is corrupted. Please check your update Utility
Now, i have tried various sources for the software, and indeed tried both 2.0 and 2.1.....
Now i have a PDA that intermittantly drops its USB connection (and needs the USB removed and re-added on the PC) and is now slower than it was, plus never got to step 2 to get the software on iot.....
Can anyone help? Else i have a broken phone so to speak.....
Thanks alot in advance

Dead Charmer... maybe

Hi all,
I tried to upgrade my MDA compact II (HTC Charmer) to WM6, but during the first step, downgrading to the "no vendor" version I made a mistake. A used a wrong version, it was for Prophet. After the final reboot, the device froze in the splashscreen "T-Mobile". After that I tried to do exactly the same with a "Charmer" version, but it didn't help me, the situation was the same.
However, now I'm able to flash successfully only the last vendor provided ROM update "RUU_Compact_ll_2060227_20602110_021921_T-MobileUK_Ship.exe", but it doesn't help me anyway, my Charmer is still freezing in the splashscreen. I tried to downgrade it , but the application gives the following error: "UPGRADE ONLY". When I try to make a hard-reset, and after that to confirm the factory settings by pressing "Yes" (green) button, the result is "Format FAT partition" and then "format is failed".
Only the bootloader is working now as well as the battery charging. Please, help me to turn back to the life my Charmer!
And one additional question: can I perform a CID unlocking just by ROM-flashing or the device must be fully operable?
Flash this:
http://rapidshare.com/files/41754719/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship.exe.html
After that, you should be able to make hard reset. If you succeed, flash "RUU_Compact_ll_2060227_20602110_021921_T-MobileUK_Ship.exe" - that.
Hello there,
I am a new use an recently got an MDA PM200. I am in exactly the same situation as petrun. I have tried the flash suggested by vlodeck but it doesn't work, saying incorrect vendor ID (I guess that's because it's for a Prophet?).
What should I do next...?
Thanks.
OK, I succeed with a little progress. Many thanks to vlodeck, I will try to explain what happend...
I successfully flashed my Charmer with this Prophet ROM:
RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship.exe
Full link:
http://rapidshare.com/files/41754719/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship.exe.html
But it was possible only by using this "No ID" update application, not original one, maybe because my device is still locked:
Full link:
http://www.windowsceportal.hu/tartalom/programok/htc_charmer_upgradeut_noid.zip
After that I succeed to format the FAT partition (finally ). But I cannot after all to flash the latest official MDA compact II firmware. There is two possible events, which I experienced:
1. When I try to use the original flashing application, I get the following response: "UPGRADE ONLY".
2. When I try to flash the official MDA compact II ROM, but through the "No ID" application, I get "INVALID COMMAND".
Just for explication, now my device cannot boot, it freezes in the splashscreen (it is Qtek now, not T_Mobile...) and the following versions could be read:
IPL 2.06
SPL 2.20.0000
GSM 02.47.21
OS 2.20.7.34
So, how I can do that? What should I do further? I would like to unlock my Charmer, but should I firstly make it operable?
Thanks in advance for your help, guys!
By the way, all described above I tried sevetal times with the same result.
The other thing is that... all links about the CID unlocking downloads, which I found here are no longer active. Any alternatives?
Rise from the dead!
Incredibly, but it's a fact! After successfull FAT formating I probably didn't wait long enough. Today I turned on my Charmer and several seconds after the splashscreen "QTEK" it successffully booted in WM5, performed all settings and finally started to work!
It's GSM module works, the Bluetooth works, I am able to start different applications. Just the camera does not work. And the most strange thing for me is that this ROM was for Prophet, not for Charmer
So, after all, how to proceed to upgrade to WM6? Now the bootloader is above ver.2.
Should I firstly flash it with proper ROM (for Charmer) or it's not necessary?
Should I unlock it as is now (Prophet ROM)?
Vlodeck, I rely mostly on you, since the WM6 with Touch FLO is your creation.
Thanks!
You dont have to CID unlock. Just flash that WWE T-mobile WM5 AKU2 for Charmer. Good luck.
Maybe I am boring, but steel need an advice: I cannot flash "WWE T-mobile WM5 AKU2".
1. The original RUU gives me "UPGRADE ONLY", maybe because my SPL after flashing the Prophet ROM is 2.20
2. This "NO ID RUU":
http://www.windowsceportal.hu/tartalom/programok/htc_charmer_upgradeut_noid.zip
reaches 2% and gives "INVALID COMMAND", after that - only bootloader screen.
3. This "NO ID RUU":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=42657&d=1183226200
cannot open the nk.nbf image (but works with other images), I don't know why.
What is the solution? Any ideas? Maybe some tool to downgrade the SPL to ver.1? I tried (it perhaps was bad idea)"RUU_Charmer_1120223_11202110_11220_T-MobileUK_Ship" and IPL became 1.12, but SPL remained 2.20... and Charmer didn't boot after that. After flashing the Prophet ROM it works again and IPL is 1.12, SPL is 2.20
In brief... how to flash successfully the last Charmer ROM?
If you cant flash the AKU 2 charmer rom, then go for AKU3.3 rom (can be german, that doesnt matter). Once done that, flash wm6.
Success
Yeah! Thanks to vlodeck now everitging is all right! I flashed the original German AKU3.3 ROM by using this RUU:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=42657&d=1183226200
(The original one gives "INVALID VENDER ID", of course, in German ) After that - successfully upgrade to WM6 TouchFLO.
Briefly:
1. First try to flashing WM6 - crash! The reason: old bootloader version (IPL/SPL = 1.12).
2. Flashing the Prophet ROM - success for FAT formatting. The Charmer turned back to life.
3. Flashing the German AKU3.3 ROM from T-Mobile, but through the No ID RUU.
4. Upgrade to WM6 TouchFLO by vlodeck. At the begining I reached the same problem, as described here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331717
but after istalling cert_spcs.cab and enablerapi.cab in my device I succeed to finish the process.
Thanks vlodeck, good job! This ROM is really amazing!

I HAVE A MDA COMPACTII ''MADE IN TIWAN'' I WITCH WM5 I WANT TO UPGRADE IN TO WM6 SO I UPGRADE THIS WM6 TouchFLO Charmer WM6 ver. 2.1 FINAL by vlodeck AT THIS HOME PAGE http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...harmer+cert_sp... AFTER THIS I HARD RESET MY MDA C2 ITA ON BUT THE LANGUAGE IS NOT ENGLISH I CANNOT UNDERSTAND ....
SO I CAN REFLASH IT WITH THIS ROM Charmer_Touch_GER_Beta_2.7 .. AFTER FLASHING COMPLETE I SOFT RESET MY MOBILE.
SO MY MOBILE STUCK ON SPLASH SCREEEN ONLY T-MOBILE IS SHOW
MY MOBILE DETAIL IS AS UNDER
IPL 2.06 .0001
SPL 2.06 .0001
GSM 02.19.21
OS 4.0.0.0
PLZ DEAR SIR WHAT IS SOLUTION OF MY MDA C2
MDA2 CANNOT CONNECT WITH ACTIVE SYNC
Of course it cannot connect with ActiveSync, the device doesn't boot. One certain solution for bricked Charmer is Prophet ROM:
RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship.exe
Use this link:
http://rapidshare.com/files/41754719/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship.exe.html
In order to flash this, you should enter the bootloader, without using the ActiveSync. After that try to perform a hard reset, you probably will succeed to format the FAT partition.
if you cannot connect the pda to pc HOW CAN U PUT THE ABOVE PROPHET RUU ON CUREENT?
I have a charmer and I was trying to update to wm6. I can´t because the ipl is 1.12. I updated rom to german aku 3.3. But I can´t hard reset. format error.

I try tu send a radio rom. after that is the same. 95%error. please help. I can´t bring my charmerback to life.
Hello together,
I have the same problem like _mestre_.
I updated from T-Mobile AKU 3.3 GER to WM6 and flashed back to WM5 without problems, but when flashing again to WM6 from vlodeck my charmer didn't boot anymore and had that "Format is failed"-problem when making a hard reset. I could not recover my device until now with the method explained in this thread cause of the problems "error 326 - This nbf file cannot be used for your pda phone". So the Prophet Rom does not seem to work with boot loader 3.x. Has anyone any idea? Please help! Thank you very much in advance!
