Please i need help to upgrade to the new radio rom. i have a siemens sx66 from cingular. i tried to upgrade it but i always get an error.
Hi aih1977,
Please read the wiki. Cheers ^^
Hi khngaroo
i did but i still get an error
Same issue here
Hi guys,
Actually, I have the same issue. As far as I could see, the Wiki doesn't address the "123: Radio file checksum error" that I receive when following the directions. I follow the directions for using the downloads which doesn't go, then I use the files from the Siemens SX66 Upgrade as suggested.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
ever thought about reading the other threads ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=23814

Lets see the wiki 1.40 upgrade is in the first place a TPYE II upgrade.
Now if you spend sometime and READ the page you will see that there are 2 ways of doing a 1.40 upgrade. One is the whole rom in its type II format the other is just the CE and the radio Type I.
How ever if you don't read the page and think you are got it all worked out then you use the fast option, thats the MA_noID tool (Type II), then download the radio 1.13 which Is a type I but who cares about that any way....then you run the bugger and get a checksum error what the hell have I done now error.
Please correct me if I am wrong so that I can correct the wiki page.
MDAIIIUser,
Yes, I have thought about reading the other threads. What was not obvious to me was that I need to upgrade to the 1.40 ROM to be able to upgrade to the 1.13 Radio. Forgive me if I missed this.
Thanks for pointing this out. I'll start over and review all the 1.40 ROM threads.

You dont need to upgrade to CE 1.40 for the radio 1.13.
Just go to wiki and follow the radio upgrade page. It worked for me and many others.
Now if you want to upgrade to 1.40 then do that also on the wiki page, this will however give you the radio 1.12. (unless you read the whole of the page and understand the getting started section of wiki as in how to use fix.bat)
i tried everything can someone set up the files and link it so i can download it. i think im doing something wrong.
Can you click on the link in my signature?
Arg! Lost my post twice.
Anyhow, MDAIIIUser,
Ok. So the 1.40 ROM is not needed. That was my initial impression. I thought you were referring to reading the 1.40 ROM threads.
I also saw that many users were able to upgrade with no problems. That's why I was suprised when I received the checksum error after reading the 1.13 Radio threads and exactly following the Wiki several times before I gave up. I must have missed something because it seemed like the Wiki steps should've worked no problem.
I haven't found anyone posting that has upgraded the radio on a Siemens SX66 yet. I'm wondering if it's Siemens-related which is why I jumped on aih1977's thread (sorry ).
I'll start over and review the threads and directions, etc.
Thanks for your reponses.

so you are saying that
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Radio_1.13_Upgrade
does not work for you as you have a SX66.
This could be due to the fact that your device has no camera and the header of the rom is for a camera.
I have never read about having to fix the header for a radio upgrade, its a first for me but I can learn.
Please confirm
1) By following the link above I get an error
2) the error I get is the following
3) My rom at the moment is.
The new Radio ROM does work on a SX66 if you folloe the directions. If you have an issue use the upgrade files that you used to upgrade 1.40. Your going to get an error the 1st go around but then it will run smoothly the 2nd try.
MDA,
I'm running 1.13.00 radio on my SX66...
-Chris
Dear MDAIIIUser,
Correct me if I am wrong. All this while, from what I've read through the forum, my understanding is that MA_NoID can only be used to upgrade type II ROMs. If so, I must confess that I've upgraded my radio to 1.13 (type I) with MA_NoID... And it worked... Any clue?
Cheers ^^
Ok i just want someone to help me with upgrading the radio and if someone out there upgraded the radio please link it or pm me with the files that you used to do it.
Thank you.
MDAIIIUser,
Okay, I was able to get the radio stack upgraded to 1.12. Here's what I did. I'm sure it's pretty ugly and probably not the easiest way but:
Followed the Wiki again with errors as follows:
After step 7, running BaUpgradeUt I received the "Error 100: Model ID Error".
After step 5 of the second set of instructions, I received: "Error 123: Radio Image File Checksum Error". No joy.
So I then took the iMate 1.40 ROM image and extracted the files, deleted the ms_.nbf and nb_.nbf and ran MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe. It errored with Error 120: Country ID Error. The phone was still in USB mode so I reran MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe again and it successfully updated the Radio to 1.12. I tested the phone calling my voicemal with no problems.
I then replaced version 1.12 with the 1.13 version. I ran BaUpgradeUt.exe and recieved the "Error 123: Radio Image File Checksum Error" (this is using the files from the 1.40 ROM with the 1.13 radio file). I then tried running MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe again. The device software update utility showed no information in the from or to sections of the dialog box. It doesn't throw the phone into USB mode and after a minute or so it offers congratulations thinking it upgraded the phone.
I then went back to the 1.13 Radio files I downloaded and ran MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe. I received the Error 100: Model ID Error".
I reran MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and received an error that it coundn;t find the ruu.conf file so I renamed the htcruu.conf and htcruu.dll ruu.conf and ruu.dll. I reran it and it would attempt to update the radio, then timeout. I received a communications error (which I didn't record) then tried to soft reset the phone. It was stuck in USB or Serial mode. Cold boot no worky either.
I then reflashed back to 1.12 successfully. I will try to update to 1.13 later tonight or tomorrow.
Here is my phone info. before the update:
Siemens SX66 Cingular
Model No: PH20B1
ROM Date: 01/21/05
Radio Version: 1.02.10
Protocol Version: 1337.35
Ext. ROM Version: 1.33.110 WWE
Thanks for the responses. I'm sure that there's an easier way but I'm happy to be at least 1.12.

Edited: Type on filenames.
God are we having fun.
And Boy am I lost.
This is what I can work out.
You flashed the i-mate rom 1.40 radio 1.12 got errors and re ran it it was fine. Thus you have a 1.40 with radio 1.12
Now you are stuck. you want to flash the radio 1.13 (Type I) using the wiki info and you get error that tells me that you have the wrong device. The file is for a device with a camera you dont have that.
You try the MA_tool which wont work as its for type 2 and gives you a checksum and your stuffed again.
You seem to be the first person that has come up agaisnt this thus we need to upddate wiki with new info.
I have a problem with this as the 1.12 was a type II to Type I convert that I made, nobody had a problem with that before.
So as I asked you to confirm what you have and you have not done that I will ask again.
Please confirm

3) My rom at the moment is.

MDAIIIUser,
Sorry for the confusing post. I wanted to provide some detail. Answers are as follows:
1) Yes.
2) ..."Followed the Wiki again with errors as follows:
After step 7, running BaUpgradeUt I received the "Error 100: Model ID Error". After step 5 of the second set of instructions, I received: "Error 123: Radio Image File Checksum Error".
3) Siemens SX66 Cingular
Model No: PH20B1
ROM version: 1.33.10 WWE
ROM date: 01/21/05
Radio version: 1.12.00
Protocol version: 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.33.110 WWE
I believe that I don't actually have the 1.40 ROM. From the directory in whcih I decompressed the iMate 1.40 ROM (PDA2k_WWE_14000_176_11200.exe) I removed the ms_nbf and nb_.nbf files and left the radio_.nbf file, which I believe will only flash the radio, then updated.
Is that less confusing?
Thanks,

aih1977,
We are actually trying to determine what the issue may be to update your radio on the SX66. Hang in there!
Ok...
awhile back, I updated my MDA with hacked ROM that made bluetooth better (bluetooth 1.2 i think). anyway, i had no problems with loading new ROM. IPL is 2.17
now, i want to update to newer ROM. as instructed, i downloaded new Tmobile ROM 2.26 and tried to update my MDA.
during the install, i get an error saying my nbk file is corrupt and cannot proceed. so i have the tri color screen and i have to reload ROM 2.17. so my problem is that i cannot update to a newer ROM without fixing the nbk files that are corrupt.
anyone have any ideas on this??? i need help please....
tia,
mike

thanks...i have some more questions
1) i currently have a full backup of my stuff. if i reload the backup, will it interfere with my new ROM?
2) can you point me to where i can find wm6?
again, thanks for your help....

1). Yes it will interfere with your new ROM.. not stable anymore
2). Just search around and you'll find plenty.. trust me
ok...went thru the procedures and i am now dead...
not dead really but my mda works but it at Button 1.05 ROM. i cannot write a new ROM...everytime I try, my phone powers off...no tricolor screen.
my IPL is 2.17 and my SPL is 1.01.000
i was trying to get IPL and SPL to 1.XX in order to write Tmobile 2.26 ROM.
anyone, please help!! does anyone know how to manually get to the tricolor screen?
thanks,

Folks,
Is there a way to downgrade just the SPL?
I'm having problems with a died wizard (mda vario) and my only hope is to get
a SPL downgrade from 3.08 to 1.X, so I'll be able to install again the T-mobile 2.26 rom.
My phone is totally killed at this moment and any help would be greatly apreciated!
Is there a way to flash another wm5 rom that works with IPL 1.x and SPL 3.08?
So I would be able to put the phone to work again, instead trying to downgrade SPL from 3.08...
T-Mobiles 2.26 should already downgrade it for you. I have my IPL/SPL upgraded to 3.08 and every time I get ready to flash a new ROM I load 2.26 first and it always downgrades it back to the 2.26 IPL/SPL.
Xeno,
When I try T-mobile 2.26 rom I got
"ERROR [296]: UPGRADE ONLY. The NBF file cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please get another NBF file."
Ok, try this. Extract the nk file from the t-mobile rom update and then put that file in this flashing tools folder and then run the rom update utility in the folder and see if it solves your problem.
If you have the t-mobile rom in it's original form (a single exe file) and you don't know how to extract the nk file, that's actually very easy. All you have to do is use winrar, right click on the exe file and choose extract here and all the files will be extracted for you and nk file will be right there where you extracted it to.
By the way, I'm assuming that you are CID unlocked since you upgraded your IPL/SPL to 3.08.
Xeno1, thanx by the help,
Using original T-mobile 2.26 rom, it gives me File Read Error [238]
Now I'm Trying with wizard love rom, and its trying to flash
let's see what happens...sometimes my battery ends before finishing the flashing procedure, and I have to recharge again...(don't have cradle)
Hopefully the wizard love rom will work for you. Did you get that error using the flashing tools that I uploaded and the nk file from the t-mobile rom?
Oh, I just read your post in the did I kill the wizard thread. I didn't know you had an IPL of 1.xx and an SPL of 3.08. No wonder the t-mobile rom was doing that. The wizard love rom shoulkd be able to fix that for you.
Yes,
I'm using your flashing kit. First time the battery went down, so I'm trying again.
I tried this afternoon the Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102 rom too, and nothing happened (it flashed 100%, no errors at all). Just my IPL turned to 1.05, and the system didn't boot up.
EDIT
I don't know if my battery is damaged too, or the flashing procedure needs a lot of energy, but I had no lucky flashing this yet. The phone very often go back to the rainbow screen (showing a lose of battery power)
There seems to be a few people with an IPL of 1.05 and an SPL of 3.08 on here and all of them seem to have the same problem you're having. I'm not sure that the flashing tools that I gave you are going to help, but you can try them and see. It's worth a try anyway. Flashing the wizard love rom is what most people have been suggesting to do to fix it though. Did you try flashing the 3.08 IPL/SPL update aagain and seeing if that fixed it?
Nice idea about update again to 3.08,
So, this is a know issue? (having 1.X IPL and 3.08 SPL?)
Is there any known recovery procedure?
I did not try to do a 3.08 update again.
At this moment I'm recharging the battery, so I'll try one more time the wizard love rom, and can try to upgrade to 3.08 again as you said...
Trying to flash again the 3.08 update I got this:
ERROR[300]
These update utility cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please get newer Update Utility
Now I'll try the love rom again...
Any other ideas?
EDIT
I don't know if it is a battery issue or a problem with the love rom, because I've tried 5 times and got the rainbow screen at 55%, 85%, 96%, 99%, 100%, for example...I'll recharge battery for about 3 hours and give another try.
Any other good idea?
You could try using those flashing tools with the nk file in the 3.08 IPL/SPL update also and see if that works. I have a few more ideas to work on yet if those don't work.
Trying the 3.X flashing tools with wizard love rom I got the
message 300 (invalid rom, get new one..)
I still wanna try a full wizard love flashing, so we can try to conclude anything.
I'll go to sleep now, and will charge battery all night.
Tomorrow I'll give you the feedbacks...thank you Xeno1 for your help
We're almost there...
It's probably a good idea to give it a full charge before you start trying again. Heres another thing I thought of, I extracted just the IPL and SPL from the 2.26 rom and made a IPL/SPL 2.26 update for you.
Xeno1, you're a genius!
It worked!
I could not flash the wizard love rom, it's always stopped before the 100%.
I flashed your 2.26 ipl/spl rom, without hope, and it suddently started the chime!!!
Now my IPL is 2.26 and SPL is 3.08.... (the SPL didn't change anyway, but I'm glad the phone is back!!!)
Do you have a Vario MDA G3 wizard? I never could see(or even install) a WM6 on it, do you know if is it really possible? (I messed the things up trying to do that...)
Yes, I have a G3. I'm glad that worked for you. You still probably need to get your IPL ans SPL to be the same number. Running the 3.08 IPL/SPL update should be able to take care of that now.
WM6 is definitely possible on a wizard, It's been on my phone for about 2 months now. Before you flash to WM6 though, make sure you flash the whole t-mobile 2.26 rom back on it so that it has a good clean base.
Anyway, let me know how things go.
lotsa people make mistakes when flashing their rom for the first time and all.
whenever you start...when you use buttoms or love rom...BOTH your IPL and SPL should be 1.XX...before you start flashing back up. If BOTH are not 1.XX, you have to reflash with buttons or love, until they both drop down to 1.XX.
a lot of people don't read that part of the step...and seem to just flash with button or love once...have one number as 1.XX the other as 2.XX and then try to upgrade...lotsa times this causes problems.
in most cases, if you flash back down to 1.XX with buttons or love, and keep doing so til they are the same and then flash back up, things tend to work...otherwise...you can be screwed...
is it possible to flash wm6 right after flashing love rom with both ipl/spl 1.X, or should I do some other flashing before wm6?
If the WM6 ROM includes IPL/SPL, you can flash it without problem.
However if the ROM is OS only, you will get stuck at bootloader as WM6 requires 2.xx or IPL and SPL to load.
Every time I try to upgrade to WM6 and run the XP_ROMUpdateUtility.exe I keep getting the error:
Erroe [300]Invalid update tool
Please get a newer update utility
XDA Mini S
IPL 2.21.0001
SPL 2.21.0001
OS 2.26.10.2
wizard upgrading...
use Sspl..by Poff...thanks pof..just search on XDA...u will get it..good luck..
Does'nt really answer the question...there are loads of post by Pof can you give the forum article ID?
Seems you have a G4 version .. look for the corresponding sub-forum for the appropriate tools.
Cheers!
hey bro..
u can grab that from link below.. but before that u confirm that ur device is g4 type, and make sure u r connected via active sync..not bootloader. or it wont work..i had same problem.. i solved with this..currently i am using..TNT's wm6..good Luck..
ftp://xda:[email protected]/
to confirm, I do have a G4 unit.
Currently showing
IPL 2.21.0001
SPL 2.21.Olip
no matter what I download and try all the update utilites keep saying I need a newer version !!!
The only one thats worked is the AKU 2.3 Wizard Love WM5 which I'm currently running.
malhaar can you give me the full path as the one above is wrong...
Thanks
Fixed the problem...
copied the nk.nbf that I wanted on my wizard (am giving the TNT.1933_Professional___HTC_Home_Wizard a go) into the SoftSPL-V0.1, then ran the 2.exe and it all worked OK
Thanks for all your suggestion, will look forward to more WM6 Updates...
hi guys,
i was excited about the new Radio upgrade, so i tried to flash it. i got an error, because my SPL is 2.05. so i tried to unlock the phone using jerpelea's guide, flash to 1.09 -->success, then WWE (1.10) but an error occured saying invalid vendor ID during WWE flash. now i have SPL 1.09 on my phone and my phone is stuck on the 2nd boot screen of jerpelea's WM6.1 beta 4 ROM. my phone is fully unlocked using jerpelea's unlock guide, that's how i got to install SPL 1.09 successfully. how can i recover my phone? please help.
Update 1: i tried to flash back the original dopod 595 WM5 ROM. i mixed the RUU updater from the latest official ROM with the nbh from dopod WM5 ROM. the flashing works. when it's 100%, the phone reboots and, i got back to the same problem. stuck at 2nd/3rd boot screen. i now have IPL-0.90 and SPL 1.09 on my phone. Please help me to recover my phone. i've tried to hard SPL shown in the wiki guide, doesnt work. says invalid vendor ID crap. i really dont know what to do now.
Update 2: when the device boots, it stucks on the 2nd/3rd boot screen and if the USB cable is attached, for a brief moment, windows can detect the phone and i can even browse the content of the phone from my PC. but after that, the device disconnects itself and just remain stuck at the 2nd/3rd boot screen. the device appears to be totally freezed/hang. even the LED charging indicator will not turn off when i unplug the device from computer
i believe what i need to do now is to make a nbh image that is signed to i dont get any corrupted image message when trying to flash. i used HTC ROM editor to mix and match the SPL and IPL file so that i can downgrade the SPL to 2.05 and upgrade it again later. but i dont know how to sign nbh files.
If i were you I'd use this one =)

not good news
I think I know what do you mean. My device was in very same state like yours few mnonths ago.
Try to run mtty and the command "info 2" without quotes.
Do not forget to disable USB on activesync settings before running mtty.
You will get an answer which includes the CID of your device.
If not (this was my case), you have to send it to the repair center probably.
My device CID was Qtek_A07 (RUS) and I have tried to instal the first official WWE 1.34 ROM update (combined from SPL.nbh and ROM.nbh) and it replaced only the SPL, and the ROM update crashed.
There was not way out so I sent it to the repair center.
The WWE images are expecting the device with CID Qtek_Z12.

As a n00b I know how hard it is to understand what’s happening. I did read the wiki’s and still I didn’t get HOW TO upgrade a ROM until I found a great post in FutureShock’s thread
darkDirk said:
First of all:
It's fantastic what you are doing with wm6.1 and the Breeze, Futureshock !
I am new and trying to upgrade it myself, but at first I didn't have any luck.
Here is a simple newby step-by-step manual:
- Download and extract a MTeoR-FutureShock-WM61-xxxx.x.rar
- Check your Mteor battery in more then 50 % full
- connect the Mteor to the computer via usb and check if Activesync works
- go with DOS (cmd line) to the directory and start runme.bat
- On the Mteor press camera and powerbutton at the same time.
- then immediately press any key on the computer to continue the batch script.
- now you should see the 3-color bootscreen
- press any key to start the rom-update program and follow its directions.
When the update is finished (in less then 5 minutes), then wait untill the first boot is complete.
If you don't get the 3-color bootscreen or you the update on the Mteor stays on 0 % and the rom-updater displays an error, try testing this:
On the Mteor start the explorer and in the root directory (press UP once) find SSPL.EXE en start it.
If the Mteor won't start the program and there is an error like "insufficient trustlevel".
You need to remove the application lock on your Mteor.
Run SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe on your PC with Activesync working and then install SP_AllowCertificateInstall.cab on the Mteor.
You will find those two in the .rar in ".\opt Software\Unlock Tools"
Then redo from the start.
Then, Have fun !! (Futureshock & DarkDirk)
P.S. works on a BREE100 with IPL-0.90 and SPL-2.05.

in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=384398 you should probably higlight that the update should be done only on WWE devices.

If you bothered to read the Wiki, you would have seen this:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems#problem5
If you can't bother to read the wiki, don't play with roms!
Actually, I did read that, and a couple of problems:
1) Boot Loader is 1.09
2) OS won't load, so can't use any of the ActiveSync-based methods for downgrading to an older version, such as 1.04.
3) CID appears to be corrupted, as per the earlier output pasted.
from other forum ...... so read wiki

i did try to read as much as i could but apparently i didnt come across that. when i flashed to SPL 1.09, the device booted up just fine. it is when i try to update to WWE 1.10, the update process failed and bricked my phone. for your information, i was following the exact steps described by you in your unlocking/SSPL guide. you mentioned upgrade to SPL 1.09, then WWE 1.10. this is exactly what i did. i dont know what went wrong. im sure if im as knowlegable as you are, i wouldnt have screwed up my phone. my bad.
just to be fair, your method did work when i updated my dopod 595 (WWE device) to your WM6.1 beta 4 ROM. but i never upgraded my SPL to 1.10. i only thought of upgrading SPL when you posted the new radio release and that's where i screwed up.
anyway, what is important here is, is my phone unrecoverable? im reading the links you posted as i type, and i'll give the methods. maybe based on your experience, you could suggest some ways to do it. thanks.

hi guys,
i was excited about the new Radio upgrade, so i tried to flash it. i got an error, because my SPL is 2.05. so i tried to unlock the phone using jerpelea's guide, flash to 1.09 -->success, then WWE (1.10) but an error occured saying invalid vendor ID during WWE flash. now i have SPL 1.09 on my phone and my phone is stuck on the 2nd boot screen of jerpelea's WM6.1 beta 4 ROM. my phone is fully unlocked using jerpelea's unlock guide, that's how i got to install SPL 1.09 successfully. how can i recover my phone? please help.
Update 1: i tried to flash back the original dopod 595 WM5 ROM. i mixed the RUU updater from the latest official ROM with the nbh from dopod WM5 ROM. the flashing works. when it's 100%, the phone reboots and, i got back to the same problem. stuck at 2nd/3rd boot screen. i now have IPL-0.90 and SPL 1.09 on my phone. Please help me to recover my phone. i've tried to hard SPL shown in the wiki guide, doesnt work. says invalid vendor ID crap. i really dont know what to do now.
Update 2: when the device boots, it stucks on the 2nd/3rd boot screen and if the USB cable is attached, for a brief moment, windows can detect the phone and i can even browse the content of the phone from my PC. but after that, the device disconnects itself and just remain stuck at the 2nd/3rd boot screen. the device appears to be totally freezed/hang. even the LED charging indicator will not turn off when i unplug the device from computer
i believe what i need to do now is to make a nbh image that is signed to i dont get any corrupted image message when trying to flash. i used HTC ROM editor to mix and match the SPL and IPL file so that i can downgrade the SPL to 2.05 and upgrade it again later. but i dont know how to sign nbh files.

it depends on the info displayed on terraterm
for A07 you can use the russian rom to recover
this is what i got from terraterm. same as mtty.
Cmd>info 2
CID: Wait interpreter timeout

i did flashed back to my original ROM after the first stuck in WM screen incident. and amazingly the flashing process works after several mix and match. after the original (WM5) ROM completed flashing, my IPL is downgraded back to 0.9 and SPL is still 1.09, and im still stuck at the WM logo screen (this time WM5 logo).
terraterm is a tool like mtty
what is your orignal rom??
just try to flash over sdcard... (look in wiki4more infos about that)

i tried SD card flashing too yesterday. it says not allowed. i have already flashed over the original dopod 595 ROM and my phone is now WM5. the flashing is 100% successful, but it is still stuck at the second boot WM screen.
i think im in a really screw up position now. i have SPL 1.09 and IPL 0.9. i dont know what is corrupted now. is it the CID? SPL?
cid you can check with mtty and info 2...
if that so... just do what i have wroted in pm...
you could also just try the old htc rom (w. SPL 2.05)

both mtty and terraterm give me the same msg when i type info 2. it says time out (refer above for exact error message).
the original dopod 595 rom has SPL2.05. and it was successfully flashed into the phone. when the phone reboots, it is still stuck at 2nd boot screen (WM logo). i checked, the SPL is still 1.09, but IPL has been downgraded to 0.9.
