Within the past 2 hours, I have flashed 2 ROMS:
1. TNT.19199 Series V.2 (Offcial/Professional/TouchFLO) WM 6.1 Real Port
2. WM6.1 For Wizard OS 5.2.19521 buit 19521 WWE
I did a HardRest to T-Mobile ROM, connected to ActiveSync, went through the XP-ROMUpdate Utility until 100% completed, Clicked on Finished.
Saw the TNT Series It's Right with 2.26, 2.26, 2.25.11 and 2.26.10.2.
Then for some unknown reason the MDA restarted and came back up with the T-Mobile Hard Reset Screen and ask for a tap on screen, etc., to go through a total reset back to the T-Mobile ROM.
What did I do wrong?
Even after the T-Mobile ROM reset I still see the TNT Series It's Right with 2.26, 2.26, 2.25.11 and 2.26.10.2. screen but then my MDA is displaying the T-Mobile Today screen with the default Today stuff.
What do I need to do?
Thank you.
It sounds like your phone is not cid unlocked
Did you follow these steps for unlocking before flashing ??

Used WST V 0.4.0.0 and did a CID Unlock and received notification that CID Unlock completed. Do a Soft Reset which I did do.
Tried again to Flash both ROMS and they did show 100% competed/finished.
MDA softreset and showed both first screens of flashed roms, then went into Windows Mobile T-Mobile.
So, what did I do wrong?
This is the message I received after the CID Unlock:
All Done. CID Unlocking is finished and you
can now flash any ROM to your device.
All Done.
Don't forget to soft-reset device!!
A file with new CID value was created.
A backup file was created in program's
folder to restore to previous state.

Thank you.
You didn't read the stickies carefully.
You need to flash the Button's ROM to have your IPL and SPL lowered to 1.01 before unlocking!
YUP !
It is must to have IPL/SPL 1.xx to CID unlock the phone,so read the sticky carefully and follow the method correctly.
Cheers!
Thank you both for helping me. I do agree that one should read very carefully. No excuses. However, there is so much to read and so many postings to read from. Again, I do appreciate your help and now I will find the T-Mobile Origirnal 1.xx ROM to load and go from there.
I will post this and I hope I do not get flamed. These are just suggestions from a new person. Please accept them as such.
1. Why did WST display that my MDA was CID Unlocked when it really was not? Should there be an edit up front to check for the correct IPL/SPL?
2. Why did both ROMs go through a complete cycle and then display that the ROM was completely flashed when it was not. Should there be an edit up front to check to ensure that the CID is Unlocked rather than go through all the install?
3. Why did both ROMS leave the splash screen on the MDA? Is there a way to get ride of them?
I know, read the threads before you take any action. Thank you both! You are right.
1.
CIDkey: MODULESN
CID IMEI: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
CID: WIZTMU01
Phone is CID LOCKED
WST does NOT show that it is unlocked...
2. Yes, there is checking in the Original RUU, all RUU in our custom WM6 ROMs are modified to bypass the checking. That's why it won't work if you try to flash another Carrier ROM to your Wizard without replacing the RUU program.
3. Just flash your original ROM (IPL+SPL 1.xx), unlock, and flash it again then you will get back the original splash.

(Not to disagree with you, but I did get a display that:
'This is the message I received after the CID Unlock:

So, WST did display it CID UNLOCKED my MDA. That should be corrected in WST.)
2. Yes, there is checking in the Original RUU, all RUU in our custom WM6 ROMs are modified to bypass the checking. That's why it won't work if you try to flash another Carrier ROM to your Wizard without replacing the RUU program.
(I was addressing not the Original RUU, but the Flashing ROM that does not check or bypasses the checking. Would this help others if this edit was performed prior to executing the complete Flashing?)
3. Just flash your original ROM (IPL+SPL 1.xx), unlock, and flash it again then you will get back the original splash.

Don't ever trust the successful message when you unlock CID (This is the same for using LokWiz02 also). Always perform CID check again after unlocking, that is the real status.
Cracking is not easy. Bypassing operations is relatively easy. Adding operations is very hard, so...

You are correct. One must never ASSUME that something is done. I wonder how many others have fallen into the same trap?
Latest status for me now is that I have:
IPL 1.08
SPL 2.26
01.0.9.10
2.26.10.2
So, I am back to the drawing board and trying to flash again. Tried WST and TNT and still did not take.
Maybe I am doomed to be with what is on the MDA.
Thank you again.

There's no such trap,its just that the method is not correctly followed,either missing doing some step or doing a step incorrectly,resulting in not getting the things done correctly.
WST tool will not work in bootloaders ( multicolored screen) or in the splash screen stuck up.Secondly,TNT Rom is a wm6 rom,it won't flash or work with IPL 1.xx,it has to have IPL/SPL 2.xx and a CID unlocked phone.
after you flashed Button's Rom you got IPL 1.08 and SPL 2.26,reflash the Button's rom a couple of times more to make IPL/SPL 1.xx,it sometimes takes more then one flash to downgrade ipl/spl 1.xx,then apply lokiwiz02b to SIM/CID unlock the phone,upgrade to IPL/SPL 2.xx by flashing T-mobile 2.26 or official stock rom of your carrier AKU 2 Rom,only then upgrade to TNT series wm6 or 6.1 Rom.

Well I finally flashed TNT 19199 Pro and it did install completely. I did use Button ROM which installed 1.08, 2.26.010.9.10 and 2.26.10.2. Then I used WST to CID unlock. Then I flashed TNT.
The main reason for me trying to flash a new ROM was that my MDA Touch Screen capability is very sporadic. It works some times, but not all the time. The only way I can get it to work after the Touch Screen is no longer touch sensitive, is to re-flash. I know that is not practical, but I want to try to resolve this Touch Screen problem.
Even after this latest Flash of TNT, I am still experiencing the same Touch Screen problem of not recognizing using the stylist.
Any suggestions? I assume that it is a hardware (MDA) problem and not a software (ROM) problem.

My original config:
ipl 1.08
spl 1.08
gsm 01.16.11
OS 1.8.11.1
I ran lokiwiz's CID-Unlock (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=249474)
I used the instructions in shogunmark's Cingular 2.26 Aku2.3 w/a2dp FULLY LOADED thread with that RUU.
Now when I boot my 8125 it displays:
IPL 1.08
SPL 1.08
OS 2.26.10.2
It takes about 3 minutes from a cold start then freezes at the password screen.
What now?
If I boot into bootloader mode, how can I fix this?
flash with original cingular rom
http://america.htc.com/support/docs/RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship.exe
possibly your 8125 is nit cid unlocked
that cingular rom shouldnot have any problem with flashing
good luck
I'm in bootloader mode. I opened the file from HTC that you recommended. Just before upgrading it states that my original version is <blank>.
Thanks for your help
itissat, your link fixed it. Thanks!
Now I have to decide if I want to try again...
cid unlock
be sure that you cid unlock it before flashing custom roms
if you read the instructions, you have to upgrade to an 2.xx Official Rom BEFORE you flash to one of the custom 2.26 roms... Just a reminder

Ok, so heres the deal. I've been reading thru the forums for the past two day, and have got nothing but a headache. Keep in mind that I'm fairly new to this. I managed to get WM6 Faria v5.0 on my phone after a few hours of fidiling around
What I'd like to put on my phone is NBD, not sure which version tho. I have it downloaded onto my computer, but when i got to flash it. It come up with Error 208, File Error or something to that nature. Anyone have any advice, or where i can find a very good guide on how to do it? Any help would be appreciated

as you say that your device is SIM/CID unlocked and already using wm6 Faria rom,then I don't think there shud be any problem upgrading to any other new rom,as to the error 208,wud you plz post the exact error what it says,if it say it's a file error...can be related to a missing file called enterbootloader.exe. ,then most probably the file you downloaded is corrupt.which NBD rom you have downloaded.download latest NBD Rom from here and try to flash.

ERROR [208] : FILE OPEN
These error messages indicate that RUU lacks certain important files and cannot continue with the update. Please get the complete RUU package again.
as t-mobile 2.26 flashed and loaded good,than there's no problem with your bootloader,Ok,Now do this,remove your phone from the usb cable(disconnect it) and do a Hard reset of your phone by doing this :-
1. Press and hold the comm manager button and voice command button on the device together with one hand
2.Keep the two buttons pressed,and at the same time,with other hand,use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button
the device will reboot and switch back on.
then delete active sync,reboot your PC,Run disk Clean wizard on Drive C:\ ,check all options in Disk Clean options,specially Temporary internet files and perform disk cleanup,after that delete all cookies in Internet options.
than download the latest version of Active sync ver 4.5 and install.
after this go into bootloader mode in your phone and connect to PC,but don't establish connection with Active sync,cancell the connection when it asks
when you connect witusb you'll see small usb showing at the bottom of bootloader screen (tri color screen) if it's there then open the rom file and try to flash,hope it'll be ok.
just post your present IPL/SPL...? it appears in red color when you switch on the phone and on the boot screen at the top.whatever the ipl/spl..? is there at the moment just post it,ok
I still believe the error 208 is due to some missing files,may be the NBD rom is getting some corruption
anyway you can also download official rom from the official site of your carrier ( the rom which came prinstalled when you bought the phone)
or download this rom and see if it flashes:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=332544
Ipl/spl: 2.26
Ok so I did everything you told me to do in your 2nd to last post : deleted activesync and clear cookies and did disk clean, and hard reseted my phone. Then i tried to flash both NBD and TNT and neither of them worked. So then i flashed back to my orignal rom, the one my phone came with. Then tried flashing both of them, and still nothing? I keep getting the Error 208
Current IPL/SPl are both 2.25

I just feel as your phone is still not CID unlock,do one more thing,download this WST tool from the link below,install and run it,then post whatever report it generates,ok
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329170
Ah 1
so,when you flashed with T-mobile 2.26 you had ipl/spl 2.26,afterwards you flashed back with your original rom,is it cingular rom ? so ipl/spl 2.25 is registered. Both of these Roms T-mobile and original(cingular or ?) which you flashed are official roms.so only official roms are flashing and not the custom builds,hmm, so custom build rom can only be flashed if device is CID unlocked.
It means may be your device is still not CID unlocked ?
But i did CID unlock, because thats how i got Faria v5.0 on my phone. Do I have to CID unlock everytime i flash?... Ok so i ran that program you told me to and heres what i got.

just a hunch may be bootloader of your phone not accepting romupdateutility of NBD,lets replace and see,it might do the trick.
you are awesome.... its loaded NBD... I guess it was a corrupted file. Now does this mean i can put TNT on my phone? If so will i have to replace those files?

YUP ! go ahead fire up any wm6 now,I\ll suggest go for TNT excellent ro,see my sig using the same,anyway,i'm glade for you,take care.
Hi,
I have a sim unlocked MDA Vario (T-Mobile), but i want install any custom rom to it. I have followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613 but instead lokiwiz i used the aWizard-V1_3beta2.zip. At the first step i downgraded my phone with Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102. I used the u function for the cid unlock after my device is restarted. But i cannot flash any rom into the device. I still get the 302 error. My device is still Cid locked? After the cid unlocking i got IPL 1.xx and SPL 2.xx after i reflashed with the buttopn 1.05 and the t-mobile 2.26 after i get the 302 message when i tried to flash a different brand rom. My original is IPL 2.26 / SPL 2.26 ROM is 2.26
Strange.... I compared the two dumps from two programs aWizard-V1_3beta2 / Lokiwizardb2 /lock_backup.bin before unlocking and cidunlocked.bin after unlocking/ is the same in the two programs. The question is? How possible the patched dump which is the lock_backup.bin is the same as the secondly patched lock_backup? The soft is not really pathcing?
What is wrong?
Thank You,
You're not CID unlocked yet. You need to flash and reflash the XDA_MiniS rom or the button ROM until both your IPL and SPL are 1.xx and then CID unlock your phone. Sometime it takes a few time (up to 7 times or more) to get both your IPL and SPL to 1.xx so be patient and keep reflashing until you are successful. Once you're successful, or think you are, download and run Wizard Service tools (google for it) and click on CID actions to verify that you are actually CID unlocked and then flash back to the t-mobile ROM. After that you should be able to flash any ROM you want.
Thanks... Your method is working great....
Can't Downgrad SPL 3.08
Tried 9 times now to flash the Button Rom to downgrade and I get the IPI to 1.05 (or 1.01) but the SPL is still stuck on 3.08. Any suggestions to download so I can unlock the CID?
thanks

Hi, just got my wizard the other day (Used off ebay, Unlocked). I've been reading thru all the upgrade posts and I've come up with some questions I'd like to ask before I take the plunge.
First, the info from my wizard.
=====================================
Wizard Service Tool v4.2.1
=> Bootloaders:
IPL: 2.25 (G3 device)
SPL: 2.25 (G3 device)
Built on May 12 2006 at 00:37:41
=> Firmware:
OS: 5.1.xxx (Build 14928.2.2.0)
ROM: 2.25
Registry AKU: .2.2.0
Radio: 02.25.11
Protocol: 4.1.13.12
=>Extended_ROM:
Version: 2.25.11.102
Name: Extended_ROM
Status: hidden
======================================
1. Since I used WST to get the info, it said the first thing to do was hit the Enab. RAPI + Unsigned Apps button, which I did. Is this the the same as copying the EnableRapi.cab from the lokiwiz instructions?
2. Will the CID unlock in WST work with this phone or did I need to use the lokiwiz method? Minus the SIM unlock since it's already done.
3. I saw a post about formatting the EXT ROM to get rid of the carrier branded stuff, in this case cingular. Can I do this before I do the button rom downgrade/Tmobile 2.26 Rom install? The only reason I want to do this is so the cingular stuff doesn't get put back in whenever I do a hard reset.
4. Last one! I see that the IPL/SPL can be upgrade by itself. Should this be done or just keep whatever comes with the rom you install?
I'am sure most of these have been answered before, but after several days of reading I just wanted to double check and make sure I knew what I was doing.
Thanks......Grinch843........

Yes,you can CID unblock the phone with WST tool but first you'll have to downgrade to IPL/SPL1.xx by flashing the Button's Rom 1.05,It's mandatory to have ipl/spl 1.xx for CID unlocking,However, lokiwiz02b method is more recommended.You shud also check with WST tool by hitting the 'CID Action' button,if it might be CID unlocked already,as its SIM unlocked.
There's no need to formate the EXT Rom,as you'll be flashing Button's and T-mobile,it'll automatically get replaced by the External Roms of these Roms and the cingular External Rom will be replaced.
When you'll flash Button's Rom,it'll replace the IPL/SPL to 1.xx,required for CID unlocking,but when after CID unlocking,you'll flash T-mobile,it'll upgrade to 2.26,which is must for upgrade to wm6 there's no need to upgrade the ipl/spl manually.
All the latest custom build wm6 Roms don't include any IPL/SPL upgrades in them,so the Ipl/SPL will remain as 2.26,There's nothing to worry about,as its the most stable bootloaders (IPL/SPL)
Cheers!
Thanks for info --- Soon as I backup everything I'll give it shot and see what happens.....

Greetings all.
My Kjam G4 hangs on 2nd splash screen. After reading hundreds of posts over the last few days,
I am still not clear on my next step, without making phone any worse.
History.
Phone has HARD SPL.
ipl 2.21.0001
spl 2.21.olip
Used Molski wm6 rom last month or so. Flashed WizFlo 20273 v6.1.1.3 last week. Completed ok .But now hangs. Flashed wizard love and other roms via bootloader. completes ok. Still hangs on splash.
Hard rest results in "format is failed"
"r2sd all" completes ok. Pressing dial button does not start restore.
I have previous backup of different components using wst tool and also KJam official rom.
Questions:
1. With HARDSPL , is the phone CID unlocked ?
2. With the SD restore not working , does this imply phone still CID locked ?
3. Is there an official Kjam rom without ipl/spl ?
4. Hard reset is supposed to format "UA". Is it possible to flash a backup of UA (as made by wst )to the phone ?
Thanks in advance , and forgive me if I have not followed protocol this forum.

1.With HardSPL, Nopes! phone is not actually permanently CID unlocked like G3 device,Its semi-permanent CID unlocked by flashing patched IPL/SPL,thus tricking the Bootloaders in thinking its CID unlocked,whereas,its not actually CID unlocked.A G4 device can not be permanently CID unlocked (SuperCID),its just made to trick.
2. As the phone has HardSPL,Sdcard backup through mtty r2sd all command is not possible,coz the Bootloaders are patched,not original official.To carry out sdcard method,you'll have to first remove HardSPL,flash back the original official Bootloaders(IPL/SPL),only then its possible to perform sdcard method.
3. Nopes! there's no k-jam official rom without IPL/SPL,what you can do is to extract k-jam rom and remove the Bootloaders (IPL/SPL),repack the rom and can flash it,but without official IPL/SPL.The only way to flash the official k-jam rom is to first remove HardSPL,reflash original official k-jam Bootloaders and then flash official stock rom.
4.UA back up made by WST is again only possible to flash after removal of HardSPL.
5. Wizard_love or any other official rom with IPL/SPL in it will not flash,unless HardSPL is removed,infact,it might 'Brick' the phone,so avoid flashing any rom with IPL/SPL in it.
Try to flash any custom build wm6 or wm6.1 in Bootloaders and remove,if any, Sdcard inserted in the phone before flashing a rom and remember to have a fully charged battery before flashing.
BTW, send a PM to 'mestrini' the inventer of this magical tool WST_4.2.2,may be he can advise you better on this problem of 'Format is Failed'
