Please explain me how can I do upgrade windows ce in my MDA 2.
Step by step. Need I special program to format sd card ? What is country ID problem in this case. When I try upgrade directly ( USB ) then see :
error geting device data. File getdevdata.exe - kill my system and MDA display only bootloader screen ( serial/usb , v1.03 ). Thanks for advice....
the rom KITCHENs are ONLY!!!! for xda1 never xda2
Whats a pity ! Unluckily certain You have right. So, how can I prepare my own ROM. Means best like rom kitchen but not necessarily. I know about Extennded ROM Editor (by the way:the password (e.g. HTC) will be wrong:.......). Thanks for reply

To update the extended ROM the EASY way:
1. Just copy all the contents of your working XDA's Extended ROM to your PC via ActiveSync or to an SD card,
2. Delete all the files in the Extended ROM of the device you which to upgrade,
3. Put the files you copied in step 1 in the empty Extended ROM.
4. Hard Reset.
That's it. You will have the desired Extended ROM, and you will notice that the version will have changed.
In case you do not know how to access Extended ROM through ActiveSync or File Explorer, have a look at the following post and download the ExtendedROMUnlocker.arm.CAB:

CE rom have been worked ! how about ExtRom ?

hi ppl,
today I ve made rom with the romkitchen, it was 2003 final and everything went ok, phone was functional until I used to try to install some newer versin of the programs I previously included in the rom. That didnt work (of course) so I decide to put another rom without those programs so I can install newer versions but when I run the romkithen exe computer report
in the dos window
error getconnectiontipe - unspecified error
error getting connectiontype
and the program for the patching report that he is trying to get the data from the device and after that he reports that
"cannot execute the remote communication program, please make sure that the usb/serial cable is properly connectes"
of course cable is connected, device syncing with the active sync and the icon is green, used to try to soft reset pc and pocketpc, to hardware reset pocket pc, to connect it to other pc and patch there, to install active sync 3.7.1, to reinstall active sync 4.2, to reinstall usb drivers on the pc, to put sim card and sd card out and to patch then... nothing helped...
what can I do ? is that due to the windows 2003 instalation on the pocket pc (had same version on other wallaby without the problems) ? can I solve that some way ?
I ve read before that patching can be performed from the SD card so I found the xda tools and osi image tool but couldnt found rom nd1 file anywhere (was stupid and didnt make copy of my previous rom)... which rom can I use just to enable USB connection and after that I ll patch it with the "normal" rom from the rom kitchen...
Ive checked those roms http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ROMVersions but didnt find any nd1 file in the files I ve checked, can I use those roms with osi image tool eventually ?
which one ?
Lots of questions ... Sorry people ...
I can use it in this condition too but I d rather have an opportunity to flash it to some other version maybe.
Best regards to the community !
I think it´s just the problem that the ROM prohibits flashing via EXE-file. You have to flash via SD-Card.....
You find the ROm to write on the SD-Card in the EXE-FIle. Just extract the exe using winzip, and then you will find it in a subdirectory (normally english, or dependent on the ROM-Language...)
Stefan
Thanks a lot Stefan, so I can use some ROM from the page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ROMVersions ?
Any advice which one should I take please (Im not using any of the operators noted there, just looking for some rom that will function ok) ?
Thanks m8 !
Yes, you can take any rom of it. Mostly the T-Mobile prohibits flashing via EXE-File, but Flashing via SD-Card is more secure in my opinion. So i´ve done 99,9% of my flashes via SD-Card, and you can believe me, i´ve done it a lot of times.....
By the way, which software has to been updated in my romkitchen?
If you give me the hints, i could try to update them....
Stefan
thanks a lot for your time and advices Stefan !
Its not a huge problem but probably we share same opinion - most of the tech guys like to see that everything work fine, if something doesnt work then we re not satisfied.
Basically problem is that I included spb pocket plus in the rom and therefore I cant install spb weather which demands pocket plus v 2.5+ and version in the rom is 2.0. I cant upgrade it coz its in the ROM, used to try to remove it from the registry but no luck, used to install latest spb diary coz the spb weather also work with the diary but looks like that the first thing weather perform is checking of the pocket plus version and if the version is not 2.5+ it stops the installation...
Probably for the most of the people spb weather is not a reason for loosing couple of hours in trying to change rom in wallaby but as I ve mentioned I like the things that work 100%, if some electronic/computer stuff work at 99% that usually bother me. Stupid - I know but thats the way it is.
Im going to patch it thru the SD, thanks again for the all your efforts now and before.
GL & HF !
Sorry...
Still need help, using the OSI tool I copyed NK.nbf file from 4.02.04_eng rom to "XDA SD Card Slot -unknown size" - coz I dont have card reader/writer at the present moment so I tought that I can put the file via the cradle connection while the card is in the wallaby...
Checked the card from the wallaby file explorer but nothing is on the card, since I had expirience with direct writing to c64 and amiga disks writing I assumed that file could be written directly to the card without OS instructions but after the reset of the wallaby it report that card shoud be formatted to become writable... Is that normal, or I should wait for the card writer reader to put the file properly to the sd card ?
If possible please help me with the link for the OSI tool patching, I cant find it anymore, checked thru the site but no luck, dont know what I have to press so the wallaby read the rom from the sd card.
Thanks Stefan & all others
success !
No help needed, I ve made it...
So dont have any fears as Stefan told unpack the rom from the self extracting archive and run osi tool, in the source field set nbf as a file type and then select extraced rom.
As a target you can set card reader/writer and also you can put the SD card in the wallaby as I did. Set the XDA SD card as a target in that case.
Its normal that after the writing (no message that writing is successfull, when it is finished OSI tool will stop) SD card become unreadable to wallaby.
Then perform actions as noted in SD card patching info
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_FlashSD
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 " Hard Reset"
Action button mentioned above is middle button - "D PAD"
Works like a charm, now I have o2 win 2002 and later I ll patch it to 2003 SE again but without pocket plus.
Thanks Stefan and community !
hi brothers, i upgraded my O2 XDA Atom last night--result fail. i didn't backup ROM on SD card, so i can't restore by using SD card and i can not find someone to fix it for me in my city. does anyone can upload the full SD Backup ROM for me? it would be great! thank you very much.
You're stuck in the bootloader after an ExtROM Flash Fail, right? Do you have the DSUU windows upgrade executable?
If you don't, download the latest Atom ROM upgrade from the O2 site, connect your device to the PC's USB (you'll see the message on the Atom's screen change to Connected), and run the upgrade (it will think you're trying to flash to an empty device with ROM version 0 - let it). IIRC you do NOT need to use an SD card ROM for this process.
To ensure success, be sure you have removed the SIM card from your device first - and it usually takes one or two tries before the extrom format command goes through successfully (*glares at Quanta*). As long as what failed is only your ExtRom you should be able to salvage your device.
Thanks brother, i will try it.
i just got an old mda phone...the old one...

hmnmmm..how use this rom??which one i have choose at romkitchen.de??
im still dont understand bout WM5,,WM5 its same with WM2003???
you pick the one you like to have
about wm5 then no wm5 is very very different from wm2003
with wm2003 the memory is devided between storing data
and running programs
in wm5 all! ram is for applications
and flash is for storing data on
on later devices then wallaby the user can access flash to put data on
on wallaby you cant
so even if somebody spend the months it would prob take to make a rom for wallaby one would not even be able to put a contact or phone number on it
let alone a program to make application memory into storage
oh..thanks..i already cook the roms,,,its working fine...
can u tell me about nbf files??how to install it???

Hello,
My SPV M1000 (Himalaya) has WM5, and i was thinking about upgrading to Windows Mobile 6. But there were a few questions as i'm new to all this !
1) Which is the best WM6 ROM to use as there seems to be a few ?
2) How do i upgrade the ROM ???, (in English please as i'm not very up on all this!). Do i download the ROM to my SD card and run the .exe from there on the Pocket PC (or on the home computer) ?
3) Are these ROMs reversible incase there is some kind of error ?
I'm having issues with the phone feature on my M1000 (phone wont work at all !), so i am hoping an upgrade to WM6 (or even reflashing the ROM to WM5 will solve this ?
Best Regards,
Andrew
1 matter of taste as the diff is in general which programs are preinstalled in the rom
2 all roms rar or zip packet include a readme.txt which describe step by step how one install them and all any of us can do is to copy paste the content of that file..
Ahh, cheers for the info Rudegar !. Much appreciated,
Andy
