Why not make a backup from your device...

Download ntrw.exe -> http://www.tamiminet.com/othman/ntrw.exe
Copy ntrw.exe to C:\
At Dos Command Prompt goto C:
Type ntrw read XDAII.nb1 E:
(file XDAII.nb1 is the rom name (actually you can assign any word) and E: is Drive of SD Card Reader)
You will see file name XDAII.nb1 at C:
Then you can format SC card, that's all.

I have a PW10B1...I downgraded the ROM to 6.24
now info for device
ROM Version 4.01.16 Eng
Radio Version 6.24.00
Protocol Version 324e4
When I try to upload the Special edition Rom I get an error when running Xda tools
C:\xda>pnewbootloader bootloader_v5_15.nb0
Unable to find flash info offset, cannot disable bootloader writeprotect
I am following these instructions... the error occurs at step 5. please advise. I had downgraded the ROM from before and tried the unlock program. it did not work.
Now my goal was just to use the XDAunlock program. When I ran the program right from the defaults I got 'error getting unlock code.'
Here's what I started out with:
ROM: 4.01.16 ENG
Radio: 6.25.02
Wallaby booatloader: 5.22
What finally worked:
Radio: 6.24.00
ROM: 3.17.03 ENG (XDA special edition)
then upgraded back to 4.01.16 ENG
Wallaby boot loader 5.15
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What I grabbed:!
XDATools
ActiveSync
XDA-Developers Special Edition ROM 1.2
RSU 6.24.00 files
XDAUnlock.exe
1x64Mb+ SD card
What to do?!
Back up everything. Not just using the sda backup tool, from the boot loader.
You can do the SD backup if you want, consider it backing up your data.
You can also do the ActiveSync backup if you want to save your data.
I'm doing ALL of this with no SIM chip in the device. This may or may not be necessary.
Backup the existing bootloader and operating system using card reader
Wipe the SD card (format FAT). Stick the SD card back into the pda and soft reset, then cradle it.
Go to a DOS prompt and CD to where you have extracted the XDATools
Type 'pnewbootloader bootloader_v5_15.nb0' to write the Wallaby 5.15 boot loader to the device.
The output looks like this:
D:\XDAtools\binaries>pnewbootloader_40116 bl515.nb0
Copying D:\XDAtools\binaries\itsutils.dll to WCE:\windows\itsutils.dll
in FindFlashInfoOffset
protection found at 8c0d60f8
result: 00000000 00000000
Install the XDA-Developers Special Edition ROM 1.2
You can try installing it directly via ActiveSync connection by running the exe on your PC
or
Flash your device via SD Card and bootloader (by writing the NK.nbf-file in the directory English to your Device)
Boot up your device
Follow the instructions to calibrate the screen and you're ready to move on.
Grab the RSU 6.24.00 files and unzip into a folder on your computer
Use ActiveSync to copy the files to \windows on the device.
Execute the rsupdate.exe program to reprogram the radio to 6.24.
When completed soft reset the device
Go into start -> settings -> system -> device info to make sure you're at 6.24 radio vesion
Copy the xdaunlock.exe to the device and execute.
It should say 'you're device appears to be SIM Locked, would you like to remedy this?"
Click Yes to unlock the device.
Now the device is unlocked.
You can change the ROM to WM2003 or any other ROM if you want.
Also you can re-upgrade your bootloader and radio stack if you want but I'm leaving well enough alone for now!
formatting the SD card
I used my PC and a card reader to format the SD card as FAT. I did not see any other option from the device itself to format the card.... could this be part of the problem ?
can anyone tell me how to use the PW10B1 to fromat
can anyone tell me how to use the PW10B1 to fromat the SD card. I havew copied the image via the OS image tool, but the does not the device does not ask me to format.when I put the SD card in. it can read the NK.nbf file as 31MB. When I power/reset it just goes to GSM OK.
Please help. I have reinserted the card but no difference.
Download XDATools
Extract them at any place and run osimagetool
Select your Rom Image from the Source drop down menu.
Select your SD card (disk drive) from Destination the drop down menu.
Select Copy to start writing process and the tool should start writing to the card.
When XDATools has finished writing the image (no Infomessage) put the SD-card into your device
If there comes a message to format the SD-card select No
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"
any ideas
anyone know what I should do ?
you need the attached bootloader installed first.
Then you can do the SD.
Format FAT using reader card is fine.
To load the image file, I use:
1) Right click on the NK.nbf file & select write to SD.
this assume you have registered the tool to your system by
running the "-register" command.
If the attached bootloader doesn't work, then you need to upgrade your
*.NET framework.
This is what works for me.

Hello guys, I tried to upgrade on my XDA ( Qtek 1010 ) from Pocket PC 2002 to 2003 for some reason it installed but on the boot up of 2003 it just stops and doesn't go farther.
I'm trying to flash it and I got one problem, I cannot put the wallaby patch on my MMC card with XDAarit.
I wanted to know, do you have to use SD card for that because only SD can contain keys ( Headers ) ?
If yes I hope I get an SD card tomorrow and hopefully fix it.
hi
usb on my o2 is nt working...can somebody tell me the procedure for upgarding via sd card....i have the 2003se rom file with me...i read some articles but could nt understand them as they all needed to connect via cradle atsome time.....is there some method which can upgarde via sd card alone..
thanx
i have bought a second hand mda vario 2 (=tmobile branded htc hermes). when i connect a usb cable, it charges fine, but i believe the usb connector is broken. it charges fine, if you put the cable under a certain angle. leaving aside this problem which is impossible to fix, it is not able to connect through activesync!!!!! so i cannot update the rom. the device is simunlocked, but not cid unlocked. i tried to download Des' SSPL program and ran it while renaming the wm6 rom to HERMIMG.nbh (off course i extracted both executables, after which i ended up with RUU_signed.nbh (93 mb). i renamed this to HERMIMG.nbh). so i put the des sspl program and the renamed image on a format sd card and ran des sspl. but off course, it did not work... since it is not supercid, it cannot upgrade from sd card.
so does anyone have a solution to supercid the device without using the usb cable to activesync (bluetooth activesync maybe???) so i can do a sd flash?
maybe someone else has a solution to upgrade both the rom (os) and radio rom??
any help is appreciated.
i've tried mtty ==> but usb is not recognized at all, so that didn't do me any good
can i apply hard-spl over a bluetooth connection?
same question for removing the cidlock, can i remove the cidlock with an bluetooth active sync connection?
i also tried another computer, different usb cables, reinstalled activesync several times, tried as4.2 and 4.5 on the different computers... the usb cable only charges the unit, it is not recognized as a usb device.
i also tried several hard reset with and without letting the extended (tmobile) rom install.
problem fixed
MDA Vario does not sync with PC
Hi,
I am also trying to update my ROM for MDA Vario II. How were you able to fix the problem. Can you pls. let me know.
Thanks,
install rom from SD card
1. get a Micro Sd card under 2Gb ..
2. Format sd card Fat 32.
3.rename the rom file to HERMIMG.nbh.
4.copy the HERMIMG.nbh to Microsd card root.
5.Put back the Micro Sd card to the phone.
6.Hold ok button + power button and push the reset button by styles pen.
this will automatically start to install the rom.
PLEASE be sure you all are hardspled before do any any any any any any upgrade or rom change!!!!
Yep, What + Que PPC said, only in caps....
don't have Hard SPL, you're probably looking at a brick unless you're REALLY lucky and the rom is compatible with your carrier (NOT LIKELY).
