hello,
i get a message while trying to upgrade my wizard,and it says "please get a newer update utility tool",what does it mean,and how do i bypass it so i can install any rom i want.
thank you
give us some info....
like, what rom are you trying to flash?
Do you have a G3 or G4?
are you CID unlocked? (NOT THE SAME AS SIM UNLOCKED)
What rom are you flashing from?
What are your IPL/SPL, GSM, and OS versions?
What is the exact message and at what point do you get it?
i have a g4 phone,i do not know if it is cid locked or unlocked,i know that i used a few roms in the past from molski.biz. now i have a ipl/spl=2.17.0001 os=2.26.10.2. I try to update the rom,the mobile reboots,i get an rainbow screen,and then in windows it givs me the error message. i am trying to flash wm6 most beutifull,but i will settle with any wm6 rom.
The rom i have now in the wizard is
RUU_Molski.Biz_Faria_AKU3.2-3000_3000_024711_WWE-30MB-CF2-G4

Try flashing the T-Mobile 2.26 rom then upgrading to a custom rom of your choice.
Since this is a g4 phone, unless you have paid IMEI Check to unlock it, its CID Locked (no other way around that at this time)... I would suggest you download the Wizard Love ROM and flash that one. You can search on here for links to it or grab it via PirateBay.
Good luck.

I swiched from Cingulat to T-mobile and was able to unlock my phone for use with T-mobile but now I want to change the ROM so that I don't see Cingular everytime I turn my device on and I want to get rid of all Cingular apps. I attempted to install Mr.cleam 2.24 but i get an
"Error [300]: INVALID UPDATE TOOL"
The Same happens when I attemp a T-Mobile Rom.
After researching a bit I found that I need an updated RUU? Can anyone help with this?

I've got similar problem when I tried to upgrade TNT 4.0. I am using a CID locked SimUnlocked O2 XDA Mini S
sorry, I found the new RUU last night. now worries.
Hi, I need some help here as I cannot get WM6 on my Wizard.
My Wizard has a ROM version of 2.21.4.1 WWE and whenever I try to put WM6 on it, the updater program gives me error 300 and says it needs a new updater.
Now I have been looking around and i know I have to unlock the CID. The Sim is unlocked and I unlocked the CID using Lokiwiz 0.2. While doing this, i noticed it did give an error, but it did actually say it unlocked the CID and produced my backup and a unlocked CID BIN.
I tryed using the updater again and it gave me the same error (Error 300).
Can anyone advise me on what to do as I am completely lost...
Thanks
Shiraz

Let me guess.... you got a G4 device. It can't be CID-unlocked through lokiwiz (don't believe it if it says it did CID-unlock). Look at the G4 thread on howto flash a CID-locked G4! Never flash IPL/SPL because you will brick you're device!

You find all answers to your doubts by looking into G4 thread initially. After, you find another sticky thread related.
Just go for it!

Turn into bootloader and up Official ROM.
Try it if your wizard is T-Mobile Variop.

Also make sure your Storage card is removed before you flash.
Is your phone CID unlocked?
I had a molski rom working on it before i just wanted to update cause alot of things stopped working. I use cingular service so i cant use the tmobile rom. I have installed the tmobile rom so i know it will take a rom. Im just having a hard time getting anything new to work. the CID was unlocked at one time will that change when i tried to upgrade or reinstalled the tmobile rom?

No, you should not have to unlock it again, unless you burned the button 1.05 rom again. Then you have to unlock it again.
so which rom which i try? Its a T-mobile MDA G3 and im using it for cingular service?
Hi all,
I'm trying to upgrade from Molski 2.26 to WM6 and now I am stuck on bootloader mode. Since I'm in bootloader mode, activesync is not seeing my device. Because of that, I can't even load any other rom images, the upgrade utility simply quits because of that. Can anyone help? Thanks.
IPL/SPL 2.26 --> G3
since your stuck in bootloader mode activesync won't be active. When you are in the bootloader screen, hook up your usb to you wizard. There look in the bottom left corner you will/should see usb displayed there. Once you can confirm that, run the RUU and flash an OFFICIAL CARRIER ROM. After that try flashing wm6 again. hope that helps you out. To find official carrier rom look in some of the stickies they should links for you.
Hi,
I also have a T-Mobile MDA, and I got stuck at the bootloader screen. I tried flashing Wizard Love ROM, but it doesnt flash either. I bought the phone from ebay, and I'm not in the US. When I try to download the TMobile ROM, it asks me for a valid TMobile phone number, which I dont have.
Is there any other place where I can get the TMobile ROM to flash on the phone?
I dont get it. If you're stuck in bootloader, just connect the usb cable and run official RUU.
Cheers,
vlodeck.

Not being a customer of TMobile, I cant download the official ROM update from the TMobile website, cause they require a TMobile number in order to download the ROM
This should help you out <----- hope that helps you out latest t-mobile mda rom ipl/spl 2.26
For the past couple of weeks I have tried to upgrade to WM6 using a few of the ROMS found here in the forum, but each one I tried failed with an error in the update process.
Correct me, if I am wrong, but if I can flash the button ROM, do the lokiwiz, flash to the TMOBILE 2.26 then my device is unlocked and I should be able to flash any of the WM6 ROMS in the forum.
Any advice from the mentors in this group would be greatly appreciated for a new flashing junkie.
The lokiwiz only unlocks the SIM LOCK. For you to be able to flash any ROM (without any IPL/SPL), you need to CID UNLOCK it, they are different locks.
So, you are saying that if I can't flash the other ROMS, i.e. Black Diamond, Xm64, etc, but I can flash button and the Tmobile 2.26 original then I am not CID unlocked?
Thanks for your assistance.
Will I be able to flash your new REV 5?

Yes, but you need to CID Unlock first to flash any custom ROM.
Ok, thanks, I will try again. I just saw the pics from your new rev 5.0 looks great, I can't wait to try it.
update 1
Well, I couldn't get the rev 5 to load so I just went for broke and tried the Black diamond. It worked like a charm. Apparently I missed a step in the sticky and did not do the CID unlcok at the right spot. You must do it when the IPL is 1.xx not 2.xx. (I think that was it anyway. )
Regardless, I think I am truly addicted because I am back on the forum searching and readin about the different ROMS available.
Thanks for all the assistance.
