Upgrade question - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Sorry for Offtopic but, i cant install official wm5 rom cause.
The ruu with wm5 doesnt work> connection error
The .nkb doesnt work with ruu mun> file read error
What to do???
LOLOLOLOL

Are you sure it is .nkb? Wizard doesn't use that kind of ROM...

What?? Of course he uses. I extracted the RUU and rom file from .exe instaler.
What could i do? I tried also flash it with softspl and i didnt work.

Well,which rom you are trying to flash and which rom is at present running on the phone,plz be specific ?This problem usually occurs when trying to flash a rom in a language different then already present on the phone.Are you running a Russian or some other language OS on the phone and trying to flash with a rom in some other language ?

I have T mobile mda vario g4 and i want to install official wizard wm5 rom in german language. And i cant.
No i am running wm6.1 with english language. I had never, after the hardspl, problem with flashing g4 roms. Everithing worked perfect with muunˇs RUU.
I have english rom( all instaled roms were anglish) and i want to downgrade to official wm5 german rom. And tzhen upgrade to another wm6 or wm6.1 rom.
Why i cant??
Sorry. U are right. The rom file is. nbf , and yeah the official rom is like that.
If i try to flash it with ruu in official pack - i cant cause wrong update tool ( no connection)
And if i want to flash this official rom with munn ruu - file read error( something wrong with .nbf file)

sry, double post
and thanks for helping me out

Ok,I got your point. You are at present on wm6.1 latest custom build rom in english and you want to go back to your phones official wm5 rom,ok ?
Right,well,as you have done 'HardSPL' your phone and its IPL/SPL is patched to IPl 2.21.0001 and SPL 2.21.olip,right ?
ok,now as you have patched to ipl 2.21.0001 & spl 2.21 olip through 'HardSPL',its not possible to revert back to official rom,untill you remove the 'HardSPL' from your phone and flash the original/official IPL/SPL of your phones carrier Rom bootloaders.After only removing HardSPL and getting the official ipl/spl,it'll will be possible to flash the official wm5 rom,ok
Now,how to remove 'HardSPL', read and follow the method as instructed in the 'Sticky' in the G4 forum by dharvey "How To: Remove HardSPL"
Well,then again,if you want to upgrade to another wm6 rom,you'll have to either again use 'HardSPL' or 'SoftSPL',but,if at all,you want to flash with another wm6 rom,then why first downgrade to wm5,why not straight away flash the rom while with HardSPL still on the phone ?
Cheers!

Yeah, everything is soo as u wrote.
you: why not straight away flash the rom while with HardSPL still on the phone ?
I have very strange problem with wm6.1 rom that i would like to use, until the new paradox rom will come out. i will try it for sure.
U can read about problem in wm6 subforum in windows Mobile 6.1 slim editon thread.
So do i have any option unless to remove hardspl?
u are the king , i wouldn come in weeks to the "please remove hardspl, " solution. hahahaha thanks again

Ok, thanks
well,if you got a problem with the wm 6.1 slim,then just flash another wm6.1 latest rom e.g by 'it's right' 'TNT 19199 series Professional Rom' as I have personally used it and found it to be an excellent rom,without removing HardSPL and reverting back to official wm5 rom.Just give it a try,I'm pretty sure you'll like it and may sove all your problem,as it'll replace all the rom files of the previous wm6.1 slim rom.
Cheers!

Tooo late. hehe
To remove the hardspl u need 2 minutes. I removed it and tried to instalruu_vario_aku3.3_3822_382120_026911_tmo_de_ger_ship
Again once again i get the message from ruu = error file read.
Could somebody open that rom and look for problems.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard_Upgrades
First one on the site.
Right now i want to flash another official rom( from remove hardspl thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=342744) and it say again file read.
What could that mean??
EDIT:
I just succesfully instaled ruu_vario_aku3.3_3822_ rom with ruu in the rom` folder. I tried also the T-Mobile MDA Official WM5 Rom (old) with his ruu and it didnt worked. Also softspl didnt work on both roms.

I need quick answer
now i flashed wm5 rom aku 3.3 and the ipl/spl changed to 3.08 . Before was 2.26 which i got with instaling ipl/spl pack.
Is that bad for g4 with ipl/spl 3.08 , is it safe to install wm6.1 roms?????

Flash QTEK Rom To MDA ver. 2.21

Hello!
I wan't to totally get rid off the T-Mobile branding and so I decided flashing the original qtek rom ver. 2.18 GER. I used awizard to unlock cid, backup roms and afterwards tried to flash the QTEK rom. Now the program throwed error 296 "upgrade only". I read several posts in the forum describing how to do a downgrade and downloaded the CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe which I tried to flash to the phone before upgrading to qtek ROM. But when I try to flash the custom rom the updater gives me "ERROR 300":this ROM cannot be used with your phone.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
TIA.
okay... I read a bit more and seems that there is currently no possibility to flash another rom into my phone with version 2.21 without turning it into a brick, right? so I think I will better keep the TMO software until anyone finds a possibility to do an up- or downgrade on this...
If your IPL and SPL were 2.xx, then you can upgrade your ROM to any 2.xx Wizard rom by following this instruction: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=56088
Alternatively, you could install my cooked rom Wizard_Love 2.26 (it is safe, because it doesn't contain IPL and SPL part) which is a operator-independent ROM.
thx wlove!
so just to clarify that I understand it right- with this tutorial I WILL be able to flash the ver. 2.18 of the QTEK rom to my IPL/SPL ver. 2.21 phone?
Yes, just follow the instruction carefully, then you will definitely get it done (not just for 2.18 version, but for all the higher rom version as well). I have done it over and over again using this method without any problem. This method is safe, because it doesn't your touch the IPL and SPL part, even if your computer was power off in middle of flashing, you'll still be able to flash it again, your phone is not death yet. However, remember do a full charge of your battery before upgrading your ROM. Good luck.
thank you! I was finally able to flash my phone with an unbranded rom version!
Nice, enjoy your new ROM.

a question about radios

is there anyway to "shelltools" flash my radio rom? I've been missing a lot of calls lately and it really is becoming inconvenient. I havent unlocked my phone, but i am running wm6 using shelltools (mfrazzz's stuff) and i was wondering do i even need to have my phone unlocked to flash my radio? i dont want to lose my warranty so thats why this matters to me. Any ideas guys?
You may get the official (in your case, T-Mobile, I guess) ROM to flash your phone with the full set of WM5 ROM (e.g. IPL, SPL, OS and Radio). As you are using the official ROM, you do not have to CID-unlock your phone prior flashing this official ROM. After that, you may then use shelltool to update/upgrade/flash the WM6 in, while the radio is untouched (e.g. still using the one you've flashed with the official ROM).
i thin i have done what you said already. Before i flashed mfrazzz's wm6 rom i flashed the latest tmobile rom, then i proceeded to flash the wm6 rom. I didnt use shelltools to flash the official tmobile rom obviosuly, but i did use shelltools to flash mrazzz's wm6 rom.
these are my things from what i'm using now:
ipl 2.26
spl 2.26
gsm 02.25.11
os 2.18.0.0
Flash the t-mobile uk radio rom 2.19.11.. that'll work for u.
ur OS is wrong if ur running wm6...
2.18 is Crossbow Reloaded... or Faria's..

I have flashed my RADIO ONLY several times with no consequences for my CID LOCKED G4 Wizard, here´s the link for the RADIO ONLY
ftp://xda:[email protected]_Thread/T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radio_Only.zip
You have flashed RADIO only on you G4? HOW? I am having the following problem:
I had to flash a T-Mobile German ROM to use the shelltool for the latest WM6 ROM, it worked but unforunately I have got Radio 2.69 and IPL 3.08.XXX1. (from the latest official MDA Vario ROM flash before)
After the Hardreset everything went fine - I've got WM6, but after i had changed the Clock settings and restarted my device i simply have NO SIGNAL anymore. I am currently in australia maybe thats the reason???
I tried to install the offical T-Mobile AKU 2.0, but the RUU shows me error 296 as I have installed a later ROM AKU3.3 bevor my WM6 flash.
Which tools have y used? And how is the procedure?
Cheers!!!

No, we can´t flash a ROM with bootloader other than the one you have if you have a G4 CID locked device. Unless you use a RUU with no ID (see next paragraph) and the nb.nkf file lacks of IPL/SPL, such is the case of the Wizard Love which I use before to flash any other ROM with the Shell Tool.
Read post #2 of this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310954
Read carefully where talks about Splash Screens and Splash Only RUU for G4, same procedure for splash screen applies to RADIO. This doesn´t work for OS, for OS you have to use Shell Tool.
Good luck!

Need Help Newbeeee

Hi
I just got a dopod c800 AKA p4350.
Its got WM 5 on it. I wanted to upgrade the same to WM6.
Have read the threads but couldnt figure the english rom version and also need some help on upgrading.
can someone point me to the right rom and the instructions.
thanks
Whatever you do, if your SPL is currently 1.XX do NOT hardSPL or use USPL. Use the official RUU to attemp to flash your device. IF it changes your SPL and IPL to 4.xx then you can use HARDSPL and USPL.
Other than that, you can download the official WM6 from the thread that's stickied that talks about all the ROMs.

is there a problem installing original GPS enabled ROM over cooked ones??

I have an HTC P3600 from france (Originally with SFR then deblocked and serial was accepted at HTC site for update) working with english Ausdim ROM and SPL 9.99-CF and i would like to try the original french ROM i downloaded from HTC site or the original english ROM from HTC wiki.
Would that cause a problem or reblock the CIF or block install of any modded ROM later
also if i try the DOPOD original ROM would it cause same problems or not??
THX for your help
should i flash SSPL before using original rom or still use Hard-SPL??
anybody there??
Since nobody answered and I actually tried it
YES it is possible to downgrade from cooked roms to original version but always use SSPL as recommended by trinityguides.info and it will propably revert your SPL & radio version to original But not CID as I have seen.
But you have to install Hard-SPL again before installing a cooked rom.
Sometimes just installing the original rom can unbrick the phone stuck at boot screen even if failed to complete but of course this is not done using SSPL so i dont assume it is that safe
these remarks are from my personal experience

warranty - HardSPL remove

I hope this time my post is at the right place;-)
Hello there
Quote:
1. Download SoftSPL by the-equinoxe.
2. Download the IPL/SPL based on your device and carrier(attached below)
3. Extract SoftSPL to its own folder and then extract the nk.nbf file from the correct IPL/SPL to the SoftSPL folder.
4. Run Start-sSPL.exe and follow the simple directions. It is almost fully automated(your screen will turn white during the flashing process and it will appear to have crashed. This is normal so just proceed like normal)
5. HardSPL should now be removed if everything worked properly. Depending on your device and Carrier, download the appropriate Rom for your device:
* T-Mobile MDA Official WM5 Rom
* AT&T 8125 Official WM5 Rom
* Vodafone Qtek 9100 Official WM5 Rom
* Orange SPV M3000 Official WM5 Rom
* O2 XDA Mini S Official WM5 Rom
6. Flash the Rom you just downloaded. There you have it. You have successfully removed HardSPL and reverted back to your carrier's latest rom and restored the CID lock.
What exactly is IPL/SPL?
Is that the Stuff from the Provider?
I'm living in switzerland and my provider is "sunrise" which IPL/SPL should i take?
My phone is a Touch Pro 2
There was WinMo 6.1 on the device
Hope you can help me

Edit/Delete Message
just read the first sticky thread in this section where the hardspl is available. in the second post everything you need is written down.
important: first you have to flash the stock rom and finally switch to sspl! the attached file in the hardspl thread (relocker) works fine. i also switched back to tstock rom and sspl for warranty reasons with my tp2 (t-mobile germany)
tp2 tmobile link? dump or full?
Sorry i dont get it..
so all i have to do is flash the offical stock rom from htc (which can be downloaded on their offical page) and then switch the spl?
but where can i get the right spl version and what radio version?? i really need to send my phone back.. so pls help^^
after reflashing the phone should be like at the beginning right or can't i use the phone after that anymore?
sorry i might be an idiot
Yep, you got the process.
Radio's are in the Sticky by At0mAng.
The Stock SPL 0.79 is in the Hard SPL thread (called relocker). cmonex is working on an 0.84 relocker.
When you're done it should be like it was when you got it.
Also, see this thread of mine
