Help updating ROM

Hello, my name is Kc and I'm new to these forums. I just purchased a Siemens SX66 on the Cingular network. I noticed that there is a ROM upgrade of version 1.40. I have looked around these forums for info but I'm not really familiar with the lingo so I'm not making much progress on my own. Can someone please help me to understand how to update my ROM for my SX66?
ROM Version: 1.32.10 WWE
ROM Date : 12/17/04
Radio Vr. : 1.02.10
Protocol Vr. : 1337.35
ExtROM Vr. : 1.32.115 WWE
Model # : PH20B1
Any help would be great, thank you much.

Use the first method.

Still a problem.
First off, thank you TheLastOne, but I'm still having a problem. I tried to install the new Dutch ROM but after I click the update it goes to the next screen telling me what version of stuff I have on my phone then it attempts the update, and then brings up a screen telling me that the country ID is wrong. Did I miss something? Also another question, my display seems to be a little wierd as of late, I have a black boarder around the entire display as if the OS isn't set for the right resolution. Is there a way to make it fit the whole screen?
Thanks again.

Figured it out.
Well after a few hours on my phone no longer working I really decided it was time to dig deep and figure it out on my own. I got it up and running with the new Dutch ROM and I'm really happy with it, especially the WiFi, it finds networks much faster now. I have a new question though. I don't use GPRS at all for connecting to the internet, and I have no connections set up. I just want to use WiFi, but I have the annoying 'G' symbol at the top of my PPC. Anyone know of a way for me to get rid of that? Thanks for making this site, and thanks to all the people who contribute. I'm a software developer and you can expect some releases for PPC now that I have one myself.

help with upgrade
its seem that you learn fast so please help me
i also own a cingular sx66 where can i download the dutch rom and how you skip the contry id problem many thank

Did you miss the 2nd post in this thread, seems to have worked for SmearedBlackInk

for mr nobody sunrise swiss
r u missing your mind in the second post it only 1.40 upgrade and not the dutch rom ?????????????
so next time check your post and dont be rude

I'll try to explain
Well it's going to be hard to explain. I used a mix of method 1 and 2 on the page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.40.00_Upgrade
The ROM I used can be downloaded here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_DT_WWE_DutchRetail_14000_556_11300_Ship.zip
I tried to use method 1 but it just kept giving me a country ID error, so I nuked my ROM, then tried to install using method 2, but it kept stoping halfway through. I mixed my files a bit and used method 1 and some files from method 2 to form a new install folder and voila it worked.
Wow, I just read that and it doesn't really help at all does it.
I think the real trick is just to wipe your ROM before installing. I'd back it up first though, because it's kind of scary when your phone just sits in serial or usb mode and that's it. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

more help
first many thank for all the links
i change the deviceid=1 and pass the first rom but in the second he stuck
and still give me country error can u help me how u mix the two option
israel

Read wiki. Method one says to download the ROM you want, follow by MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP. Unzip MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP into your ROMs folder, and run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe twice and presto...

yop
yes its work many thank as it look a lot better on my first feeling the
wi-fi improve and also the radio bt
hope some more improvement will come in

Can't download MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP
broken link???

Sorry my powers are failing me, did you have a link in mind or was this a general why does not somebody search the whole of the site (as in all posts as well as the ftp site and wiki) to work out which link to that file does not work.

ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Tools/MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip
broken link???

Well not for me, link works fine, opens up a save file dialog.

I get connection refused whilst trying to connect to....

Unplugged router, connected pc directly to modem, worked fine then!

How are you doing this?
Are you in a ftp program and if so have you logged on with the correct user/pwd.
Are you just clicking the link and you firewall software is refusing the download?
Its a problem on your side, the link works fine for me, as is, as posted by you.
PS do you need an answer in the other thread as well?

HELP!!!

I'm having real problems wif my XdaIIs, i'm currently running the 1.33 rom and the 1.10 radio and would like to upgrade, however everytime i click on a link to get an upgrade i get an error page saying things like:

Stuck on window mobile screen
I got similar problem on XDA Exec last week and fixed it. I do not know whether the steps will help on you XDA IIi or not.
I was upgrading the XDA Exec to a newer ROM version and keep getting country error code. Whatever I did caused the device to stuck on window mobile screen. I simply put the device into the cradle after reseting it. The screen still shown the window mobile image. I ran the ROM update program again (I think it is MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe). It showed an error but I ran it again withthout taking my device out of the cradle. It run sucessful the second time.
I notice that when the program runs, it close ActiveSync application from your desktop and the device screen turns to black screen with some simple texts on it.
I hope this help.

Selcuk, have you solved ur IIi yet? and which Rom were you trying to install? what was the reason of getting the upgrade interupted? I can upload the PUGs rom if you want.

What operator are you on? All of the recent ROMs do not work on Orange UK. The phone and txt message functionality is broken.
As for not showing the ROM version, this always happens after a crash. Just reset again as soon as you see "NONE".

am a bit lost here.

just thought i point that out.
opps,thats all rom's since mid november

Before you complain that users cant help you, try helping yourself. You will find that people are more willing to invest their time then!

Wierd, you are the first to come forward to say that it works fine for you. Myself and a couple of other users haven't been able to get reliable telephony for months now. It may be a regional thing, perhaps only in Scotland. I've had replacement phones and I still have problems.
No one seems interested in helping as it's not something that can be easilly tested unless you have the problem yourself.

i was looking for hte downgrade link ill give that a go tomorrow, as tot he person that said i should try helping, how can i help if i dont know anything? we all need to learn and start somewhere. think ill be staying away from here with my spvm600 if thats the attitude this place is takeing.

Hey, it wasn't intended at you, obviously. What I was basically saying was that if you have the same problem, then don't expect a fix as it's a tough one to fix.

could it happen that you are one of those who downloaded the rom which someone had the gall to replace the original one? which rom upgrade did you use?

i cant remmeber what rom it was that i used now as it was about 2 months ago i done it, ive tried the downgrade link that was posted and when i open maupgrade it dosent see any rom on my device or any in the folder and when i click up grade it takes about 10 sconds then says tis done, which is obviously isnt dont, any mroe ideas please people?

use one of the latest (i.e. helmi's or xplode's) and upgrade again. be sure to follow the instructions (including that for device data, and the no/yes/yes input). make sure also you were able to download the whole file (it was a problem for some users).
you might also want to upgrade your radio version (1.15.00).
good luck.

Thanks for the info.

Hi there everyone
Greetings from Paris
I encountered the same problem. The file was not there anylonger. Then I saw this post, and its reply. I downloaded the file on http://download.yousendit.com/FF900F2908E9D05B which worked fine.
I ran the CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe file.
So far so good, and then the process crashed at 98%. Something about a file in outlook. I started the whole process again, and now it just stalls at 98%. No error message. NOthing. Anybody have any idea what I should do now...
I have an Orange SPV 3000. I can put the new rom back but I wanted to do a cid unlock, before doing so. It seems to be necessary to be able to try out different roms...
Thanks.

I never have to downgrade before I do the CID unlocked. I've tried with two MDA and never encountered any problem. You will only need to downgrade if you CANNOT CID unlocked; otherwise, don't bother to downgrade.

thats just the point. I cant do the cid unlock... And I suspect that the rom version has something to do with it. Anyway, thats what I read everywhere on this site. So I am still looking for a working link to Button 1.05 ?

When downgrading with this ROM...it will stall at 98% for a few minutes...be patient. To confirm that the ROM I posted was legit...I used it again myself and worked fine. Then to make sure it wasn't just me...I had 2 other people tell me they used it and worked fine for them as well.
Don't know what to tell you as this is the ROM that was hosted on the FTP site for a long time.

shell tool
If your having trouble flashing a rom the shell tool posted on the g4 threads lets you flash any rom you wish onto your phone i have a g4 cid locked and using the tool i can swap my roms every day if i wished to with no hassle

Get yourself a signature. Is your Wizard G3 or G4.

I think that my wizard is a G3. I just added my signature.
Still looking for the mysterious file that apparently is no longer posted on this site.
