Hi. I was trying to upgrade my phone with a custom ROM (i had no idea what i was doing) I was following this link
http://www.pocketpcaddict.com/forums/software/21202-wm6-touchflo-8125-g3-now-g4.html
all goes well until I click on update. as soon as i click on update my phone turns off and the update process cannot continue. It does not even get a chance to update. can anyone help me. I have NO idea what I am doing and i have NO idea what i am doing wrong. Can anyone tell me what RUU to put on the phone. i have the WWE stock 2.25.11.1. I really need to get my phone fixed.
Please help.
Err.....imma try that rom you posted, and see what happens
edit: It worked for me, i think you probably either didn't unlock your phone or you didn't upgrade to the tmobile 2.26 version first. Or it's either
yeah i got the same problem i happen to me today?>!
the link has a password on it. Mine did this as well
what do u mean by passowrd/ but all i need to do is get both ipl and spl numbers the sam/ i have the ipl but not the spl the same number as the ipl please help/ and my phone wont update the second time i go through button rom thanks
unlocking
If your IPL and SPL nos. don't match u need to downgrade ROM and upgrade all over again.

Even though my 8125 was running just fine on a Molski ROM I got months ago, I had to go fiddle with it and see what kind of damage I could do. Now, I have myself stuck at IPL 1.01, SPL 2.26, GSM 01.12.10 and can't seem to find a way to get my IPL back to the 2.xx range. Since there are no longer any ROMs posted here, I am afraid to try some of the ones I am finding elsewhere since I don't know if I will turn my Wizard into a paper weight.
Does anyone know what ROM would be the best to use to give me a newer NBF so I can just put the current factory ROM on? I had read that the MrClean_RUU_WIZARD_224a_AKU23_WWE would be the right one, but I can't find it anywhere now.

Run the T-mobile 2.26 rom which you should be able to get from tmobiles site. that will get you to ipl and spl 2.26

Appreciate the thought, but the T-Mobile site requests that I enter my phone number, which is not a T-mobile number, but a Cingular number.

Then grab the rom from Cingular's site. I believe it will get you to IPL/SPL 2.25.
Any AKU2 carrier rom will help you (assuming you are CID unlocked since you previously had Molski's rom installed) In any case if you are a cingular customer and got your phone through them normally even if it is CID locked it is locked to Cingular and you can flash their rom.
That's the whole base of the problem here, as I said in the first post my IPL is only 1.01, so trying to install the Cingular ROM gives me the infamous "Please get a newer NBF file" error. I've tried everything I can to take care of the problem, but the needed ROMs to work back up to where I need to be are all gone.
Wizard Love and the Button ROMs are both available on PirateBay. Use the Button to do a CID Unlock again, or use Wizard Love to try to just recover.
As for the T-Mobile site, if you use the link in the sticky for how to CID Unlock by Dr. P, that one does not ask for a phone number. Takes you directly to the place where you do the download (I just downloaded it again yesterday and can email it to you if you need it (PM me with your email)).

Sorry, I didn't get out of your first post that you had tried the offical Cingular ROM just that you wanted to end up on it. Read through the G3 unlocking sticky. The button 1.05 rom should do the trick. I think the link in there is working though it may be a slow download. I no longer have any wizard roms on my system or I would host it so you could grab it real quick.
I haven't done this before (so take it for what its worth) but you could pull the Cingular RUU file apart with WinRAR, and get the nk.nbf file out of it and run that with a Rom Update Utility NOID (that comes with most of the custom ROMs) and that should allow you to flash it no matter what the IPL/SPL are at as I understand it. (so you shouldn't get the need newer message).
Okay, download the button ROM and the T-Mobile ROM now as well as printing out the unlocking guide. I know I've done this before, but it was a long time ago.
Thanks for the help guys!!!
---EDIT---
You know what, just reading the ENTIRE FRIGGEN INSTRUCTIONS solved the problem. One little line towards the end of Doc's instructions ... "A last note. If you DO ever go back to the 1.05 ROM for any reason you need to repeat the lokiwiz steps as you won't be able to install a 2.x IPL/SPL bootloader."
That's it, one little line on the last page that I just skimmed over and that's all it was in the end.
so i upgraded to t mobile 2.26 and it worked fine..then i tried to flash the underground wm6 and it stalled out at 96 percent and errored...now im stuck at the boot screen with IPL 2.25 and spl 2.25 ....when i try to run the RUU it give me error: 260 or 274 connection or update error...
i dont know what else to do...anybody have any suggestions? please help!
Please read through the Wiki before posting.

There are several suggestions there on reviving a possibly bricked phone.
i did try that already to no avail...currently i am trying to use the shelltool to flash it..it picks up this info: version 2.26.10.2 device wizard lang. WWE brand HTC ...CID n/a ROM...N/a...says this should take more then 15 min..ill update on the progress....i really hope this works:-(

BTW:It really helps if you tell us what IPL, SPL, OS versions you are on (those numbers that show up when you reboot). Also what type of phone you have (G3 or G4).
im sorry...it says 2.25 for both...however on the shelltool it says 2.26 so i dont even know anymore..
i did follow that tut....the problem is..i cant seem to flash from the bootloader screen...the RUU wont flash to my phone..it gives me an error when its checking phone info...o and its a G3 phone..(to the best of my knowladge)..when i started my rom was 2.25.11.1

Why are you doing shell tool with a G3 (I've seen where some G3's have been bricked with shell tool is used on them)? Did you try to flash the Wizard Love ROM? That seems to help in a lot of situations.
So again, more info helps. What is the exact error you are getting. And what rom are you trying to install? Is your phone CID Unlocked? May be worth trying to go back down to the Button Rom and doing the CID Unlock again.
PROBLEM SOLVED!
i dont know what was wrong..really..i just restarted my comp...and downgraded to a stock rom..and it worked fine!
man you have no idea how much i was freakin out..
thanks for all your help! i really appriate it!
time to try again
Sorry for asking but ive checked the search and i cant seem to find it. Im looking for the original ROM 1.5 i think it was for the wizard...my phone wont do anything but go to the bootloader screen even after ive flashed it to 2.6 so im thinking i need to do the original ROM...anyways does anyone know where i can find it and download it? thanks for any help guys
oh i flashed it to what i think was 2.0...still the same bootloader problem but now it says IPL 1.01 and SPL 1.01...but still stuck at the bootlader screen...
Flash button rom:

Have you read and followed this and the steps it points you to?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
I assume you have a G3 since you are flashing these other roms, and based on the IPL/SPL numbers you are giving. You need to give us specifics of what you have done, what happened at each step and where you are at now. Details are a good thing, as its hard to diagnose with just bits of the information. At one point you say 2.6 (no idea what that is) then you say you are stuck at 1.01, and now you say 2.26. So please tell us (in gory detail!) what all you have done...
If you follow all the steps in the thread above you will get CID Unlocked, but at the point where you are now, you need to flash YOUR PROVIDER's original rom to get back to a known state. Then try doing the CID Unlock.
alright i was using molskis 3.0 and for some reason sometimes my phone would not dial or connect so i restart it once every few days...well i did a simple restart and when my phone turned back on it was on the bootloader screen with IPL and SPL of 2.26...i figured i would have to flash the rom again or go to an earlier one...so i get home and try to flash molskis 3.0 again...right after it finishes and restarts itself it comes up with the bootloader screen again...now at this point im thinking i might have to do an earlier one like the original t-mobile rom and so i tried that...same problem stuck at the bootloader screen but with IPL and SPL of 1.01...so i post and then vippie tells me to download the button rom...i try that and no luck still the same problem and i followed those steps exactly and no luck...so now my phones just sitting on my nightstand charging with a bootloader screen and nothing else and the IPL and SPL says 2.26...could it be internal damage or what? i like my phone and dont wanna have to spend the money on a new one but at this point im thinking i might have to...thanks mfrazzz for offering your help...i know i seem like a noob and i really suck at punctuation but im not stupid so anything you guys tell me to do in detail i will be able to try
I don't follow you anymore.... you got IPL/SPL 1.01 and tried to flash button rom, after this your IPL/SPL is 2.26? Impossible....
Sometimes it won't go past bootloader no matter what you do... do this to revive:

Are you sure you have a G4 ?
No, I have a G3. But according to "How to flash a new ROM to your Wizard... a little tutorial!" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613, if I have an IPL/SPL of 2.xx, I need the wizard_love rom. Read last sentence of G.2.
I used the button ROM. It brought my IPL down to 1.01, but my SPL is still 2.25. Is that OK to proceed?
Keep reflashing the button ROM until both your IPL and SPL are 1.xx. It may take a few times. I think I've read where it's taken some people as many as 7 or 8 times to get them both down. Be patient and make sure your battery is good and charged and when you get them both down, then run lokiwiz to unlock your phone.

After at least 15 flashes with button, still no luck. I started with Cingular 2.25.
The button I am using is CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe.
My IPL is down to 1.01, but my SPL is still 2.25. How in the world do I get passed this?
It really sucks when you can't get past the first step .
P.S. Should the SIM be in the unit during the flash? I've tried it both ways.
Not sure if it matters if the sim in is in it or not, but make sure your SD card is out because that causes problems a lot of times. Here, download and try this, it is an IPL/SPL updater only. It has version 1.05 of both which might be able to bring your SPL down so you can unlock your phone.

Tried it several times. No luck, SPL still stuck at 2.25, but thanks for the help. Anyone else out there with this problem?
That's weird, usually it happens the other way around and people get their IPL stuck at 1.xx when they try to upgrade back to a 2.xx but the SPL upgrades without a problem. Since you already have the button ROM on there, go ahead and try and see if it will CID unlock for you. Run lokiwiz and see if it gives you any errors and if not, download and install Wizard Service Tools on to your computer and then run it and click the CID actions button to see if it tells you that your CID is unlocked. If it does then your safe to start upgrading. For some reason I have a feeling it might just work for you.
same here, got the cingular 8125 and flashed the rom. I can not get the spl down. I have 2.25 as well. ahhh what other rom should be good for a cid unlock
also i am on activesync as "guest" dont know if this matters

That doesn't matter.
Try flashing Tmobile 2.26 then again the 1.05 Button ROM
From what i know the Wizard Love is only for G4 Users. G3 users should flash Tmobile stoc 2.26
not all g3 are the same!!
i have experienced the same with my g3 (IPL/SPL 2.18) when i tryed to downgrade the spl... ipl 1.05 and spl 2.18 still remain... just try to unlock spl with lokiwiz02b and relax... i tried to install tnt 5.0 23 times before i unlocked the spl... just read and apply this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
i downgraded and reupgraded my spl locked g3 (qtek 9100) in 45 minutes at the state of art...
-----------------------------------------------
tnx to all people that try and try and try and teach us with his experience...
I have found that the SPL doesn't matter. Go ahead and run lokiwiz and you will be ok.
yeah i got throught just run lokiwiz02b cid unlock and then update to tmo rom
Hello Guys,
I have the cingular 8125 G3 and I need to load a rom into it. I have try to load 2 diferent roms but neither worked. I have followed this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310831 but nothing.
Here's the thing, after I load the rom the screen says:
IPL 1.01
SPL 3.08
GSM 01.12.10
OS 1.5.4.2
Any help I would really apreciated. If you want I can donate too.
Thanks
Try to flash back to Button's ROM, then try to use Wizard Service Tool to unlock CID and verify that CID is unlocked in WST.
After unlocking successful, you can flash with any ROM you want.
Thanks for the answer.
Now, just for my records, how do you flash back to buttons rom?
Is it to flash the original rom?

You already got IPL 1.xx,there's no need to flash back to Button's Rom,just try to CID unlock with WST Tool,hope it'll work out.
I tried that but the thing is when i turn on the device it comes up with a screen and the info I've said before. It doesn't go anywhere else. Just to that screen that have this info in red colored.
and everytime i want to flash a rom into it, the device says flashing from language cingular, and it never changes. How can i put it back to factory default?
Thanks for all your help guys, I couldn't fix it so I sold it as is.
I really appreciate what you have done.
If there is anything I could do, let me know.
Have a great one....
First enter bootloader by pressing Camera+reset. After enter the tri-color screen, flash with Button's ROM.
