Please Please Please Dear God Please Note!! This Is For A G3 Wizard, Installing The Button Rom On A G4 Will Brick Your Device!

Exactly what worried me upon reading it.
And why posting another guide when Dr. Puttingham's (which is sticky) already does the job quite nicely and has helped hundreds (if not thousands) of Wizard owners. I do understand the retribution spirit of this thread but it's no more than repeating info...

DOC repartitioning question.

How do you repartition the memory back to the original size after you have resized it with repart_DOC? Or to put it simply, how do you undo a repartitioned memory after using repart_DOC?
You have to down grade to WM2003 and re-run the tool. Its a pain in the ass I know, I had to do the same thing!
try
1. Download mtty v1.42 from http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/mtty1.42.rar
2. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete)
kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
3. put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.
4. Run mtty (from downloaded) Choose WCEUSBSH001
5. type "set 14 0" without the quotes to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
6. type "task 28" to get your device formatted
7. type "task 0" to ask your device reboot
8. take the device out of the cradle, and manually reset it if it does not do that already.
good luck.
imatrix
again, i've allready said this (not your fault, he made about 5 threads asking theis question -.-)
Okay, I followed the instructions regarding mtty but after I reset, strange things happened. First the boot image had some horizontal lines accross it, then I got messages like CALENDAR FLASH MANAGER, and TASK FLASH MANAGER and CONTACTS FLASH MANAGER. The extrom failed to launch as well. When I tried to reinstall a shipped rom, it could not recognize the device giving me an Error 100.
Please help.
Error 100 means country code error or something like that.
just use MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe tool to upgrade it, should be fine. and if u have a sd card, take it out too, just in case.
imatrix
Using MaUpgradeUT_noID did the trick. But is it still possible to return it back to being able to run BAUpgradeUt?

Just a thought bit if you're having this much trouble trying to get an upgrade to work for you, perhaps you should just leave things alone..? Afterall, we've all learned from the wiki how to do things and I'm sure that if you do the same you should soon be in a position to assist others in the same..
When I used to have more hours in the day, I used to advise people on the following:
MrPhilly (originally) said:
Hi Dave - Welcome.. Remember, we all have to start somewhere..
The first thing I would recommend is reading.. I'm not too sure if you've discovered the Wiki on here but this is truely the best place to start..
So, simple links:
Start here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
A link from this page (titled Getting Started With Your Blue Angel) will lead you to updating your BA to where it will be of most benefit.
This is where you need to start thinking of what's of more use to you.. I, for example, have not updated my BA to WM2005 (or WM5 as it's more commonly known) as I would not be able to Sync with my Work PC easily. In other words, the latest is not always the best! You need to think of how you're going to use your BA and by trial and error, get to your own conclusions. Although saying that, feel free to seek advice on how others have reached a similar conclusion.
If a "seach" (top of the screen - Highly recommended :wink: ) doesn't reveal an answer you're looking for then a simple post with something like "Having problem "X".. Anyone else have it..?" is a lot better then "NEEDED - ANSWER TO MY WORRIES!"
This is outlined here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4534
My second piece of advice is to make sure you know what you're doing.. If fiddling with yor BA is going to lead you somewhere you don't know then perhaps fiddling with it is not what you should do. I don't want to see posts from you stating "HELP - MY BA's BU**ERED!" because you thought that Reading Wiki was for saddos :lol:
Remember - Don't run before you can walk..
Tip for Hearing problem - Turn on the Bluetooth and keep it on.. This is a well documented tip for solving the issue.. Updating to the 1.42.00 Spec ROM will also help too but you're right in saying that it will give you the T-Mobile settings.. What you can do there is use the search facility to find if someone has posted a .CAB file with the Orange SMS/MMS Settings
So, start reading..
Hope this helps..?
Cheers,

using sd mini to upgrade help

i would need some help how can i upgrade with my sd mini card if some one could help i could get my qtek working again and that would just be the best thnk right now so plz if there is some one help me
You need to get someone with same G3/G4 of Wizard to dump his/her Wizard ROM to the card using mtty.
ok and how i dump it can u help me or give me a site where i can read how to do it i know that the only way is reading but if you can give me a site than you are the man/woman :d
i am using qtek 9100 g3 if some one could find my the file or give me a place or a link where i could/can find it i would be sooo happy my phone is dead i can use it and i realy miss it so please
sry for the mistakes on the last post i am waisted
What you need is a MiniSD of at least 128MB (NOTE - All existing data inside will be wiped), the mtty program, and 2 CID-unlocked Wizard (One is your wizard, other is the wizard that dump ROM, both MUST be CID-unlocked first).
mtty can be downloaded at http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=9864
To dump the ROM, first kill the wcescomm.exe process on your PC or disable USB connection in ActiveSync.
Then restart the healthy wizard in BootLoader mode (Camera+reset), run mtty.exe and select \\.\WCEUSBSH001 as port.
After connected, enter "r2sd all", then ALL ROMS (IPL, SPL, Radio, OS) will be dumped to the card (If you only want OS, you may issue "r2sd os" instead).
After the USB> prompt returns, the operation complete. Put the card in your Wizard and reboot it, then it will have a prompt telling you to press a key for SD recovery, follow the instruction then it should be fine.
tnx my man your the best now i need a second wizard tnx
Search for OS dump for installing from sd-card
He man,
I have the same problem. After trying to get a dutch WM6 in my Wizard I ended up with a white HTC screen with the IPL/ SPL radio and OS (prophet 3.0xxxx) listed.
Don't know what happened: i was only surfing while loading the new OS!
So could somebody post his ROM (dump) so we can load from SD-card?
Thanx in advance!!

Its not possible to post any 'dump' rom or upload it,you can only make a dump or back up your previous rom on to a miniSD card or sdcard to reflash it to your phone.Read and try to understand the method already described in the above post by starkwong
Cheers!
Read and understand
I did read and thought I understood.
So when you dump the Rom of a wizard on the (or a) sd-card you end up with files on this card isn it?
So I thought if I can use the dump of a second Wizard somebody could do this and post me those files. I would copy these to my sd-card (via explorer in a other device).
Then I was planning to stick this sd-card into my bricked Wizard.
It is the same procedure as Thankwong described, with the difference that i am copying the files to my sd-card.
If this will not work I do not undertsand why not...

Thats what not possible,its not possible to dump the rom on a sdcard and then post the file from a sdcard.only this is possible if you have a friend with a similar phone and he makes a dump of his rom on the sdcard and you insert it in your phone to back up that dump rom on your phone,ok
solved the problem.
Hi all,
I've got a great tip from a specialist! Here's what I did:
step 1: load the battery to the max.
step 2: Put the Wizard in Bootload ( pressing power and camera button, hold camera for at least 3 sec. until you have a 3-colour screen)
step 3: connect Wiwzard to pc with usb cable
step 4: Use Draven187's ROM (in my case the 3.12.2.0)
step 5: Chose Vista Rom update (though I have XP)
step 6: Follow instructions.
step 7: HAVE FUN
It worked in my case!
So despite you cannot connect to your phone the Vista update tool can connect and update the rom.
I'm no specialist so I'm not sure it helps in all cases...
ALL CREDITS TO: DRAVEN187!
nope still error 260
this aint working for me

Dead Xda IIS

Guys, i need some help. Recently i came across the rom update for my xda iis, so i decide to take it out of my drawer and see if i can update it with HELMI_BA_WM6_R0_Public. I followed all the steps and try to upgrade it, after i click on HELMI_BA_WM6_R0_.exe, my xda iis restart on cradle and after that nothing happen. I notice it only appear on the top with the word "serial" and the bottom "v2.06". I have tried in vain to get it working again, please try to help as im very new to this. Im using window Vista.
since apparently, you are not that experienced in flashing your device, i would recommend you use windows xp to flash your device.
then you have a look at this wiki wizard:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade1_WM2003SE0
this is a step by step instruction on how to upgrade from wm2003 to wm6.
please follow it precisely, even if you don't see a point in certain steps, they are all important!!!
if you, however, don't understand a step or a phrase, feel free to re-post, and i will explain it to you in more detail.
have fun with the upgrading, one word of advise: take your time, the first upgrade with storage resize radio upgrade, sim unlock and other stuff can last an hour or two (not the upgrade itself, but the process you go through). when you remember the steps and feel like you want a different rom, after testing this one, all you have to do is donload a "nk.nbf" file and flash it, and the entire update takes you 5 minutes then
Hi Chef_tony, thanks for the reply. I went to the link u gave me and from the 1st step on im stuck. It ask me to download both the unlocker and Repart and place it on the phone, but i cant do anything with the phone except for the "Serial" on top and "V2.06" below, it does change to "usb" when i cradle it. please help. thanks again
ok, then at that point you are stuck in boot loader, that happened to me too.
the reason for that might not be that interesting to you now, but it is because vista in the middle of the flashing process vista thinks it needs new drivers, downloads them and then it disconnects the device, something that shouldn't be done while flashing, as everyone knows.
these wiki links explain how to flash from vista using modified drivers, but i wanna tell you in advance, that i personally never got it running, i always use a windows xp machine:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade4_Vista
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade4_Vista_Pic
so, still i want to state that the best way to flash is a xp computer, if you have access to one, use that to flash your original shipped rom first, to resize the storage (first wizard step) afterwards.
theoretically, a virtual machine, running xp would also work, if you still have an xp cd lying around, you can download virtual pc 2007 from microsoft, it is free and you just need a short time to set up a virtual xp machine, because i can guarantee you, you will flash more than one rom, once you started on the topic.
remember, you need to flash your shiped rom, then you want to flash the helmi rom, then maybe a rom update and probably you are not staying with that rom forever, since it is wm6, there is also wm6.1 and wm6.5 to follow that.
what i want to say is:
- try the flashing with vista option described in the wiki links above
- if that doesn't work, try to get to an xp computer and follow the steps
- flash your original shipped rom first
- then the wiki wizard steps in again
Problem is solve, thank you so much chef_tony. my next question is...where can i get wm6.1 rom as all the link i had is dead
according to another user, this thread's links are still working:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403421
but it does not contain office. (you can still try other office download links, if you need it)
just by the tiny size of the extrom i would say there is hardly anything contained, but anyway, that is a rom i used too, and it is quite nice, also look up IOLITE stuff in this forum for extra apps.
make sure to repost if everything went to plan
I found a working wm6.1 pro on another website and its working great! It contain office as well. Thing now is i didnt adjust the memory and i didnt have enough space to install every software that i had
This is the link http://www.4shared.com/file/66810499/8a61be24/HTC-BA5220758WWE_v302_25M_PP-16M_RAMdisk_a.html?s=1
By the way chef_tony, you happen to have any idea how to open up BA, cause i would love to clean it up on the inside.
1. the thing is, the storage resize is important for 2 reasons:
- sure, with the resize you woulld have 16mb more storage memory for installing programs and storing stuff
- you still have your original extrom on the device, which is not compatible with newer roms, meaning, instead of simply copying the extrom to an sd card to have a basic setup and installing programs you need to install cabs manually
which is why i said to follow the steps precisely, now you have 16mb of space you simply can't access from wm6 at all, and for a resize you'd have to go back to wm2003 first but give your rom a try first, maybe it is not the perfect one for you after all, then you still have the opportunity to re-flash.
2. i am glad you found a valid link, many people post their roms to hosters that take it down after a while, expecially when there are no more downloads of that item, and so, many links posted here half a year ago are not working anymore, which is sad, since there are still a lot of people, including you, that would like to go to wm5, wm6 or wm6.1 and not just the newest wm6.5 builds, but, whatever, you found your rom and hopefully kept the files stored on your pc for future reflashing...
3. there are two basic disassembling guides for the BA:
- the official service manual (also good for repairs, since they explain each step):
http://www.4pda-service.ru/netcat_f.../BLUE ANGEL/HTC_Blue_Angel_Service_manual.pdf
- the manual made by a forum user:
http://www.land-of-kain.de/ppc/mda3/disassembly/
i am glad it all worked out for you so far and you will realize that this old device has a lot of potential, when you keep it up to date (and clean ).
Thanks you so much for the help. I'll try to update if the link is dead someday, by the way..i have 43mb storage and 84mb programme, is that good or bad?
the program memory is normal, but the storage should be 16 mb more, so instead of 43.XX you would have 60.30mb.
that is the extrom resize mentioned before.
- you need to flash your original rom for that
- then copy the "xda-developers unlocker" and the "repart_doc.exe" to your device. (attached below)
- you install the extrom unlocker
- then you go to start menu and extrom unlocker
- you execute "unhide"
- then unlock
- then start the repart_doc and set the size to 128kb
then you can lock the extrom and hide it again.
maybe in that process there is a soft reset required, i don't remember.
the reason why you do all that is because the extrom memory is hidden and locked and contains a bunch of cabs, that install automatically, when you hard reset the device.
so after that, you can reflash your wm6 rom, and you'll see, that after you resized and formatted that space, your memory dialogue will show 60.30mb of storage memory (plus it gives you the opportunity to install wm6 extroms from the sd card).

Can someone tell me how to install windows rom?

I tried android on x1, but its really slow, and i want to try wm 6. 5 but i dont know how to flash it. Can someone write me the instructions? Thanks!
Hi,
here in the ROM section is a great thread with video instruction. -> click here <-
but before you can flash a ROM you must first HARDSPL your phone -> here's how <-
Finaly there are 2 ways to flash, one way is via SD card -> click here <- or via PC with active sync -> click here <-
I think via SD card is the simplest and easy way. But it is your choose
If you still have question ask me but before read the post of the threads I post you because they should answer your questions.
BTW: try to search for your problem, if you dont like the searchform in the forum use google: "<your problem in short words> site:xda-developers.com"
Thanks man

I guess he's still in android..
Can you enter the triple colored screen?(Put the phone off, remove battery for a sec, place back, press volume down, and then press the power button. KEEP IT PRESSED! then wait until you see the 3 colored screen)
If you can, keep it in that 3 colored screen, and then start the hard spl installer on the computer.
Yes i can, thank you!
Sent from my X8 using Tapatalk
Ok,i did and nothing.how can i fix it?
looks like your your phone isn't recognized by activesync (xp) or device center (vista & win7) on pc.
that's what "your phone needs to be synced!" in the instructions means. you don't have to set up a sync-partnership (contacts etc), it's enough if you can browse the phone from explorer.
if you can't get that to work, use sd-method:
download xperia078_2.zip from hardspl-thread, extract the ruu_signed.nbh, rename it to kovsimg.nbh and copy it to root of your sd-card. now enter bootloader and follow the instructions.
make sure that the file is named "kovsimg.nbh" only, not "kovsimg.nbh.nbh"!!!

[Q] Windows Mobile 6.5

Hi there,
I am using Xperia X1 with Windows Mobile 6.1 as it came to me. I didn't update anything about it.
So, I want to install WM 6.5. But the best edition for my phone of course. How will I install WM 6.5 with simple ways? I researched some topics but everybody says everything. There too many editions of WM 6.5. I couldn't know which is the best for me. Please help me. I bored from WM 6.1.
Thanks for your attention.

You have to install Hard-SPL first before installing custom ROM.
1. Go HERE to download X1_HardSPL_v1.zip, extract it to X1_HardSPL.exe on your PC
2. Run X1_HardSPL.exe and follow all steps in the RUU, and check on the device for prompts after PC shows loading bar.
3. Your phone should go to tricolour screen and say 0.52.OliNex.MFG (this is SSPL!).
4. After Hard-SPL flashes, your X1 will automatically reboots, job done.
5. To confirm you got Hard-SPL installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen) and verify the screen shows 0.72.OliNex
After finish installing Hard-SPL, you can now install your custom ROM. The most easy way for me:
1. Download your preferred ROM to your PC, the file extension of your ROM should be .nbh
2. Format your SD Card to FAT32 (Thanks ady_95. )
3. Change your ROM name to kovsimg, copy it to your SD card. (Thanks again ady_95 )
4. Turn off your phone, remove and reinsert the phone battery.
5. Press and hold first the volume down button on the phone and then the phone power button.
6. Continue holding the two buttons (volume down + power button) down until the phone display turns on and displays colored stripes, then release the buttons.
7. Your phone will search for the kovsimg.nbh file in your SD card. When it found, your phone will continue to update process.
8. Follow the instructions on your phone and let the update process running
9. When it was done, pull out battery and reinsert then turn on your phone, that's all.
Hope you understand and sorry for my grammar.
I will try your suggestion and will announce. Thank you.

I think you're wrong... the *.nbh file must be renamed to Kovsimg.nbh and your microSD card must be formatted in FAT32 (very important)
and then put kovsimg.nbh in root of your FAT32 microSD card
after that continue with step 3
Thanks for reminding, post corrected.
