Downgrading from Atom Exec back to Atom - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading

1. Download the 20060426 from www.seeo2.com
2. Run DSUU, after extracting the files in directory windows\temp DO NOT CLICK NEXT
3. Copy all 6 files into temporary or another directory
4. From that 6 files, copy 2 files with the extention nb0 (diskimage_ver.nb0 and eboot.nb0) to your mini SD
5. After copying into your mini SD, rename diskimage_ver.nb0 into diskimg.nb0
6. Now, you can run bootloader by pressing camera and soft reset ( you have to put your mini SD into your Atom so that the bootloader will boot from mini SD
7. Just wait and if there is some error message do not bother them, the most important that downloading OS Image and Eboot
8. After that your screen will blank, do not worry or panic
9. Pull out your mini SD and connect USB to PC and run bootloader again
( please make sure that your usb already connected to pc )
10. Now u can normally run the 20060426

This topic has been posted in many threads, there is no need to use the SD if this procedure is not done correctly you will loose the bootloader all together. Instead use the method posted by Luchao:
1.run atom 0416 rom update program, after the DSUU program extracted the files, don't click "next", go to windows/temp folder, copy those files extracted, except "diskimage_Ver.nb0" and "ExtendedRom.img", then save them somewhere else.
2.run july exec rom update program, after the DSUU program extract the files, don't click "next," go to windows/temp folder, overwrite with the files you just saved, this will leave only the diskimage_Ver.nb0 & ExtendedRom.img files as of the july exec rom, others become atom rom files, including an older bootloader which allows you to flash back other roms.
3. flash

Ok here you go, its a little outdated but its what I still use:
Qman's how to use XDArit to write nk.nb1 or nk.nbf to your SD card aka the Bootloader Method!
1. Place XDArit and the nk.nb1 or nk.nbf file in the same folder and start XDArit.
2. Select your SD card (disk drive) from the drop down menu.
3. Select Write to SD
Notice that the Windows CE box is already checked so just click the browse button at the end of that window.
4. Select your (nk.nb1 or nk.nbf) image and then Open
Notice by default XDArit will open looking for a *.nb1 file but if you're going to use a .nbf file you'll have to manually change the "Files of Type" to *.nbf
Notice that nk.nbo / nk.nbo was automatically added as your boot-loader and its check box is unchecked so leave it that way and click OK. XDArit should start writing to the card.
When XDArit has finished writing the image put the SD-card into the XDA and hold the power button and soft reset. You'll be taken to the below screen:
SD DOWNLOAD
Card Type:
CE OS & BOOT
Press action to Download
Or
Press REC to Exit
Press action to download and it will start the download/restore from the SD card.
Follow the on screen instructions once its "Completed" which will consist of a "Soft Boot/Reset".
This is from rudegar.
Another way is to goto lumpistephans ROM kitchen cook yourself a ROM and upgrade. I did it with 2003 and it works fine.
Good luck,

Help me to back up rom plzzz!!!!

hi all, help me to back up my roms plzzzz
my ori rom is
Rom v 1.03 USA
n bootloader mode v 1.02
i wanna upgrade to wm2k3SE
but i cant back up my rom ?
if i wan to back up always pop up notice
Card initialize is failed ??
wat thats means ?
thzzz for ur anssss
While a lot has been written, the following should provide an easy-to-follow guide:
Preparation:
1. A torch (read on and you will know why)
2. 256M SD card
3. Download ntrw.exe, romupdate.exe, hexedfull.exe from the ftp of this forum to c:\ and install hex editor
4. Download the appropriate ROM file (hereafter referred to as "newrom.nb1"). Somehow, these rom files seemed to be deleted from this ftp. I will upload them later.
5. Cancel USB in ActiveSync
6. Use Sprite Backup to backup your ppc
Backup original ROM:
1. Put ppc into the boot loader mode (hold both on/off and camera buttons at the same time while resetting).
2. Insert empty SD card.
3. Connect ppc to pc through USB.
4. Run romupdate.exe on pc.
5. Select “\\.\WCEUSBSH001” in port settings. In the popup windows, enter “d2s” and press enter.
6. Don’t get panic to see the ppc screen goes dark. Use your torch and you will see the download percentage. Wait until it reaches 100% and shows “CheckSum is OK!”.
7. Insert SD card into card reader of the pc. Ignore the “format SD card” message and click “No”.
8. Run “command” to go into DOS prompt and change to root directory (cd c:\). Enter “ntrw read oldrom.nb1 s:” where s is the drive of your SD card.
9. Ignore the “Data error <cyclic redundancy check>” message. You should save another copy of this important rom file “oldrom.nb1”.
Change header of newrom.nb1:
1. Right click on oldrom.nb1 to open hex editor. Copy the first 220 bytes.
2. Open the downloaded newrom.nb1 file and overwrite the first 220 bytes with those of the old rom.
3. Save the edited newrom.nb1. You may save another copy of this important file.
4. Go to the command prompt and enter “ntrw write newrom.nb1 s:” to write it to the SD card. Ignore the error message “The parameter is incorrect”.
Update the ROM:
1. Insert SD card into ppc and put it to boot loader mode again (on/off + camera + reset). Use you torch to check the dark screen.
2. When it shows “Press Power to flash”, press the on/off button. Wait until it reaches 100% and ignore the message “Download Fail - CheckSum Fail”
3. Soft reset your ppc.
4. You may have to reinstall your software, unless you are familiar with the advanced features of Sprite Backup.

Big storage on Gene

Small soft-pack for removing free space from Gene ROM, make lzx compressing ROM and set Extrom size to 2MB (extrom will be cleared).
After use it and flashing new ROM, you will have 65-70 MB of user storage.
Use it on own risk.
Usage:
1. Unzip this archive to one folder (for example c:\lzx).
2. Put file ruu_signed.nbh from your ROM in this folder too.
3. Run make_lzx.cmd
After it work about 5 min, and you will have new ROM as file GENEIMG.nbh in this folder.
Flashing:
This ROM cant be flashing throught RUU.
You must flash it from SD-Card.
On your device must be HARD-SPL installed !!!
Format SD-Card as FAT32.
Put GENEIMG.nbh on SD-CARD.
Charge your device at 100%!
Insert SD-Card in Gene, press AND HOLD "Camera" button, and do soft-reset.
If you see white screen with "Reading SD content":
Release "Camera" button, wait, and when countdown in left-bottom corner of screen is appear, press "Power" button. Flashing is begin, and approx. 5 min long. After you will see "Success. Press any key". Do soft-reset. Congratulation.
But if you see 3-color screen, then you mast do magic with your SD-Card.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371147

Have you tried appending the temp folder's path in CMD? The process cannot find the file - so appending the path might help. Also, the batch file doesn't seem to recognise long filenames. That could be the reason the files inside your desktop can't be found.
I create GENEIMG.nbh from a wm6.1's nbh file by your tool and flash it successfully. But it stop at the first screen, refuse to boot into windows... i hard reset, soft reset, still the same, anything wrong? Thanks a lot!
That work unstable on 6.1
Try on 6.0
Or try with that xip.

Help flashing OEM Rom(no USB connection)

I need help with installing an OEM AT&T rom to my phone. My usb gave out on it and I need to return it to the store. The only thing is that the file that I have is an EXE file. can I put that on my memory card and run it just like that or do I need to do it another way?
and yes I did search but nothing came up. Only stuff on how to flash it in non .exe file
Open the .exe with winrar, extract the .nbh file inside, rename it to RAPHIMG.NBH and place it on the root directory of a microsd card (which must be formatted as FAT32)
hold volume down, press the soft reset button w/stylus
should bring up 3 color screen and prompt you to flash
Thank you very much Da_G. Worked perfect and am now the proud owner of a new HTC Fuze.

I did the same thing another way I guess I should share it with you as well. I put the phone into bootloader mode by holding the power button and volume down as I turned the Fuze on. Then I connected my phone to the computer via usb and ran the exe... It worked like a charm!

Instructions reviving ME170C/ME170CX from bricked

After 3 days tried to find out how to recovered or fix bootloop/brick ME170C, here is the way which was succeed for me.
1. Download latest firmware from ASUS website
the best way using complete firmware (containing stock rom) like this version UL-K017-WW-11.2.3.18.2-user, if succeed then later on you can continue with OTA system update
2. Rename the firmware file to K017_sdupdate.zip and put on SD card then Insert the SD card into a tablet. (Use good one SD card, Sandisk perfect I don't know others)
3. Download flashtools and USB driver at the bottom of this thread
4. Enter the DROIDBOOT, for this purpose on the tablet off push and hold button volume + and power then connect USB cable to tablet and PC.
5. Open your firmware archive and copy or drag & drop the boot.img, fastboot.img, splashscreen.img into Flashtools folder ( in computer )
6. go to flashtools folder and then push button shift and right click together and choose “Open command windows here”, to start open CMD on the right folder (in computer)
7. Test your device by typing fastboot devices on that cmd (in computer)
8. Enter the queue codes on CMD; (in computer)
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
fastboot flash splashscreen splashscreen.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
8. Disconnect the USB cable and select the SD update or Recovery.
9. Take your coffee and sit, walaaaaaaa I see you are smiling
I am curious , is it work for others ASUS tablet? do with your own risk, but btw with this step I did wake up a hard brick devices.
Tag [ Asus memopad fonepad zenfone ME170 brick, bootloop, stuck on asus logo, boot problem, solved brick, guide how to]
So awesome you figured this out! Glad it worked out for you and I'll be saving this in case I find myself in the same boat. Thank you for this!!
Sent from my Nexus 6
K01A, aka ASUS MeMO Pad ME170CX
Prod date 2014-10 IIRC.
I appreciate you taking time to create this thread, have been unable to flash stock firmware to the ME170CX using just the ME170CX itself. ASUS website just mentions a SOP method and when I insert SD that has had the firmware files which have been extracted (1) time to the SD card, the prompt that is supposed to "pop-up" on the taskbar as mentioned in the PDF's I found online about the SOP method does NOT occur.
(I have 2 ME170CX's about 30-days old running 4.4.2, firmware Version WW_V11.2.3.27 in which one of them all the sudden the camera app crashes 100% of the time, then gives a "No camera is found" error message.
Beyond a hardware issue no-one knows what causes this beyond (1) poster that mentioned he thought problem first occurred after hitting the "Home" button right after hitting the cam icon and the thought is the app gets confused by this and the app/firmware for the camera gets corrupted.
Reset via OS itself. Wiping data and choosing "Recovery" in DROIDBOOT with "FASTBOOT" text at bottom of screen didn't make any difference. Camera is dead, dead, dead.
Figured I'd re-flash with same Version WW_V11.2.3.27, if that doesn't work try Version WW_V11.2.3.28 before RMA'ing it back to ASUS so I appreciate you listing the steps, and also attaching the needed files.)
***************
Question about Step 2, Please clarify:
2. Extract (archive in archive) and throws to the SD card. Rename the file to K017_sdupdate.zip and Insert the flash drive into a tablet. (Use good one SD card)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
To clarify you are saying to extract the firmware from the "zip" package of zip that matches the firmware specific to the device from ASUS, which itself contains a zip file named IFWI.ZIP (1 ), one time, then rename the file named IFWI.ZIP (which contains 4 Bin files) to K017_sdupdate.zip.
Upon extraction process completing and renaming the zip you then copy the contents over to a known good MiroSD of at least 2GB which is formatted FAT32 to the ROOT of the drive.
IE: You do not extract the zip within the archive, you're just renaming IFWI.ZIP to K017_sdupdate.zip?
OR are you saying to extract the BINS also?
If so do these go in the ROOT of the SD card?
Another question, is there a reason for renaming IFWI.zip to K017_sdupdate.zip?

some firmware when you download it from asus site ZIP compresed twice, you can rename it directly from WW_V11.2.3.28.zip to K017_sdupdate.zip, if your device is K01A try to renaming firmware to K01A_sdupdate.zip and then put in SD card (do not created any folder in SD card ). the key to success is the SD card compatibility with ASUS DROIDBOOT, I was using Sandisk SD card. I did format fat32 the SD card and insert in another android devices first and then put the renamed firmware file there.
inside firmware file there is boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img you need to extract it in flashtool/fasboot folder and then flashing it your tablet. this trick to make firmware recognize correct devices to be update.
try again.

RE: boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img you need to extract it in flashtool/fasboot folder ???????
Having some progress, renaming ifwi.zip which contains (4) bin files when Recovery was selected caused the robot with the Updating System Settings to appear, but a couple of seconds later it said ERROR with the robot laying on it's back, then it exits. Device reboots as normal.
To clarify:
WW_V11.2.3.28.zip download from ASUS was extracted with a Windows computer,
WW_V11.2.3.28.zip extracting /creating following folders, files, then the contents were copied to the ROOT of a MicroSD card formated Fat32
1: boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img (TO ROOT)
2: ifwi.zip to ROOT. (contains (4) bin files, is this supposed to be extracted to I assume folder by same name off root? OR does this ZIP file just get renamed?)
3: System folder
4: Recovery folder
5: META-INF folder
I do not see a flashtool/fasboot folder. (Fastboot, right?)
Q: Is boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img supposed to be in a folder named "Flashtool" OR are they supposed to be in folder named "Fastboot" with a pathway of Root (Drive) D:/Flashtool/fastboot ?
.
(NOTE ALL OF THIS IS BEING DONE ON THE DEVICE ITSELF, with contents on SD card.)
Still getting the ERROR! message wit the Adroid robot that is laying on his back.
The zip file that extracts from the main zip WW_V11.2.3.28.zip is named:
ifwi.zip...
I have left a copy of it in the ROOT, plus copied it and renamed it to
K01A_sdupdate.zip
K017_sdupdate.zip
LEAVING COPIES OF ALL IN THE ROOT OF THE SDCARD.
Q: If more than (1) zip is present does this confuse fastboot? OR does fastboot automatically look for zip zip which matches model ID of device? (K01A)
I have left copies of boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img in the ROOT of the drive.
AND
Created: (ROOT) flashtools/fastboot with *img files in it.
Created: (ROOT) fastboot with *img files in it.
Copied the *img files to under "Flashtools" folder in flashtools/fastboot.
Figuring all the bases would be covered. (EG: *img Files in ROOT, files in Flashtools, Flashtools/fastboot, and a folder named fastboot as well.
Q: I've noticed on the SD card files appearing that previously were not there, when the flash aborts is there some kind of file or files you need to delete, or is it ok to leave the newly generated files there?

Deleted:
ifwi.zip.
K017_sdupdate.zip
Tried:
K01A_sdupdate.zip
Still getting robot on it's back with ERROR!
who said you need to renaming ifwi.zip, What you need is read all instruction carefully,
do not put more than 1 zip file in SD card only firmware file which is already renamed to K017_sdupdate.zip, and use good brand SD card.

it seems the tablet didn't read your SD card, to assure SD card problem when the robot appear while system update press buttom vol + and - rapidly to show installing status.
if the tablet didn't read ur SD card try to use another SD card
BIG Thanks
I've been stuck with the bricked 2 day old tablet for at least 3 months. Today I did the procedure you described and it worked. I had to install version V11.2.3.18.2 and then, once unbricked, apply latest version update.
Again, thanks a lot!.. Best regards.

Hi, am trying to fix my ME170CX because an original root attempt that failed and am getting a demo error message that won't go away.
I tried following all your instructions to fix this but it gets stuck "waiting for device" once I begin entering the commands.
I have tried multiple sd cards (including a sandisk) and both the V11.2.3.27 & V11.2.3.28 firmware versions to no avail.
I also tried naming the zip file K017 & K01A.
I am also wondering why we need to download the USB driver file? I don't see anywhere in your instructions on what to do with this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Youll want to get your answer from him but i think i may be able to help. You need to install usb drivers so you can access abd and give commands to your tablet. Which i think is why it just says waiting for device... I could be wrong though....

OK, I finally got the usb drivers working on my computer and made it through all commands which is much further than I was getting before.
I got to step 8 "Disconnect the USB cable and select the SD update or Recovery" and selected "Recovery" in DROIDBOOT (I don't have an "SD update" option there) and after like 1 second of "installing system updates" I get the android falling over guy error and then it hangs on the asus splash screen for ever.
download ME70CX for ME170CX

Can NOT use download of ME170C
Use download of ME70CX. Just did it, and tablet back to "almost" normal.
I have wifi button issue now. Button is stuck.

That did it!
I used the firmware ME70CX and renamed the file "K01A_sdupdate.zip" and followed all of the other steps as per the original instructions and got my ME170CX working again but for one problem. . . I was still getting the "demo has stopped" error! So I proceeded to attempt root again, this time with RootZenFone-1.4.6r and and now it's working perfectly and rooted as well!
Many thanks to all!!
