downgrade to stock MDA vario 2 software? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin

hi there,
does anybody have the OS only upgrade (well, downgrade) for the t-mobile mda vario 2 stock firmware?
I'm sending my phone in for repairs (radio issue) and need an OS only upgrade - OS only cause the radio does not upgrade/downgrade no matter what i try, and i have the scary "no GSM" problem.

Duxz, no worries. Most of the software were writen prior to SE, so it's just a warning. Of course some of the software doesn't run well on SE. I have a friend on the IIs and it doesn't run Battery Pro 1.1 well (makes his IIs unstable). For me it works fine ... no prob (still keeping my fingers crossed).
hey alvin, guess wat.... i think i screwed my whole xda up big time this time round...lol. Sending it over to the service center in sunway in da morning for them to load it up with the original rom... but will try to install the wm2003se again once i get it back... :twisted:
i think the service center is gonna see me pretty often.... muahahahaha.
ok malaysian xda2 users..... i just got my unit back from the service center in sunway, PJ. Things are ok now... back to the stock rom. Those guys there are pretty professional in wat they are doing... and bad statements said about o2 centers are not tat true after all.
For those who wanna fool around with the roms till it get screwed, have fun with it coz it only cost RM35 to get it back running again

Hi Duxz, I'm not sure how you could screw your XDAII dead, because there was 1 time my XDA II got disconected in the middle of an upgrade, but I managed to salvage it using the procedure highlighted in this tread ... my advise .. save the RM35.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13651
I just upgraded my O2 XDA II to WM2003 SE using XdA2JoJo.v3.2zS.exe. Also changed the AutoConfig and add in the thing for Maxis. So far so good.
I give up with the WM2003 SE. Just revert back to the original one. Basically the XdA2JoJo.v3.2zS.exe just a bit too slow...
duxz, i'm having the same experience as you are. bring my xdaii to SC at Berjaya Times Square to flash the rom with ori OS. what an experience huh. i feel very cold that time, so as my xdaii. now my xda back to normal and i dont want to try that anymore, since i dont hv fren using the same device. now i couldnt get my cradle to work as usual. at first, no problem. can do sync and charge with cradle, but now, only charging, cannot sync. my windows cannot recognise the cradle anymore. try to update driver but fail. now i sync with IR. i want to use my xdaii as usb modem now but must get the cradle to work first. found forum on modifying the pin, and still afraid on doing any mod. is it because of the pin on my cradle is shorted or is it because my usb is not 2.0?
HAHA, I reflash it back by myself. But then, now I got use to flashing the OS, I'm testing the various WM2003 SE now...
hi everyone, i suggest to whoever who wants to play around with their device, read the post carefully. because what ever you are trying to do, i'm confident someone out there has already done it.
i flashed my device recently.. thank god its ok.
cheers
can you tell us how did you do that reflashing? others (at other forum) need 2 devices, put on cradle the ok one till update program asking to start the update process, then swap with dead one. yet to find friend with xdaii at the moment
maybe you could borrow eric's xda. ehehe
I downloaded this from O2 official website sometime ago. This will flash your O2 back to the O2 Official OS.
I'm now using WM2003 SE with XdA2JoJo.v3.2zS.exe. So far so good, except that I have some issue with the Bluetooth Handfree.
guys i would like to know after the upgrade of ur xda2 to windows SE can it detect spectec sd wifi????

What rom are you using, and where is it now?

hey all! i'm currently waiting for my 3125 to make it to my doorstep (it shall be my backup until i get my 8125 apart and determine which lcd screen i need to buy to fix it -- don't let truck tailgates come down on your lcd screen, you'll get angry...)
so, what roms are doing what for people?
so far, i've been able to dig up scattered around the net (which is funny, considering the m$ note on the ftp about no devices on the market have wm5 offered, so its proprietary now, take down and destroy....):
ruu_star100_1.02.251.1_qtekeur_ship_r2.exe (think its the buggy one, missed calls and all that)
ruu_star100_2.4.502.0_02.45.30_cws_ship.exe (htc support's current (illegal?) offering for the cingular/at&t customers)
ruu_star100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_qtekeur_ship.exe...
I'm sort of in the same situation as I have a 3125 on the way to replace my 8125...
I'm going to use the "RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship" ROM as it seems to be the latest available and I was able to pull it off the FTP last week.
I'd still be interested to know what everybody else is running though
i'm also using the "RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship" ROM and don't have any problem, stability, not too slow...
yeah im using the Qtek8500 ROm RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship
On my Cingular 3215.
This is the only clam shell WM5 device in the world yet it gets no love. No one doing new ROMS or anything. I have the HTC Wizard and I swear they come out with new ROM every week, sometimes more expecially with the whole WM6 ROms.
hmmm. i've been scanning through both xda and spv forums to figure out the best way to go about cooking up a rom. christ, xda is a mess to look through, but so far i think maimach's tools may do the trick. at least the thread seems to give hope :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294489
as to how to pull the nk.nbf or nb out of the rom.exe, i'm retarded (extract it with winrar someone said... ), this thread could work too...- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=238945
i've been looking into this for a few days, and my head is starting to hurt (should go medicate...)
anyone else have any suggestions as to how to go about?

Well, the app unlock went fine and the 'RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0...' ROM went on without any probs (didn't bother to SIM unlock as I'm a Cingy customer anyway)
Would love to get my hands on a copy of ClearVue though as this ROM doesn't seem to have it and the Cingular one did.
Anybody??
BTW, love this phone!
I've answered my own question.... plenty of apps here, including ClearVue and some other cool stuff:
http://surrealnetworks.com/mpx/SDAapps.htm
I can't seem to find this ROM on the ftp server anymore
ftp://xda:[email protected]_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship.exe.
Can someone please uplaod this again, I want to put it on my new 3125 sexy phone )

Thanks a bunch donshula, I am downloading it right now.
So, what are the differences between the 3.6.251.0_02.67.30 and the 2.4.502.0_02.45.30 one? And why are so many people using the 3.6.251.0_02.67.30 one instead?
I've got the 2.4.502.0_02.45.30 as from Cingular and can't say I've had problems...
Would installing the 3.6.251.0_02.67.30 one cause issues because it has some different hardware?

No probs, I have the Cingular base ROM as well if you ever need to go back to it.
thelostsoul - I wouldn't be able to tell you the differences between the ROM's but generally, the newer the ROM, the more bug fixes and better stability is my guess. I do it anyway because I love to fiddle !
A downside of the non-carrier ROM's is that they don't always have the same software; 3.6 doesn't have XpressMail and the ClearVue suite for example.
Oh and no issues putting the 3.6 ROM on a Cingy 3125. They share the same base hardware components from what I understand. A few of us have done it without issue (if you follow the instructions properly) and the 3125's actually have more ROM than the Qtek 8500 so no worries on space.
how come I am getting invalid vender error when I am trying to install that firmware? I ran surreal networks app utility and rebooted.
Doesn't sound like you went through the full application unlock process. I followed the guide in this post to the letter (#2) and it worked.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292936
One thing I found was that when doing the regedits in step 1, your initial registry entries might not be the same as his - doesn't matter, just make sure you change them to the values damird lists.
Also for step 3, the file you want to download is the one at this link:
http://nah6.com/~itsme/download/itsutils.zip
- get one of the later ones and you have to start adding arguements to the pdocread command.
Hope this helps
thanks! it worked and now I am running the Qtek Rom which seems less buggy and a little more responsive. Have not experienced the missed call problem either. Now all I need is some good software to fine tune this puppy! maybe some good ring tones!!!!

Point 3125 unlocker
Zetajunkie point me in the direction of the sim unlocker (free) for the 3125.
PPPLLLEEEAAASSSEEEEEEE!!!!!!
Trini
@ trini
the sim unlocker i was thinking of errors out (the spv-tornado one). if you don't want to call cingular to get it unlocked (free?) or pay the 20-40 bucks US that various companies charge, all i can suggest is to keep a look out on spv-developers.com. some helpful **** there (that's the site that we can thank for our cid-unlock). i don't know how responsive they are in questions, considering i haven't been able to post there ever (i registered, but i never got my permissions to post topics enabled for some reason)....
a good place to start looking there though is

There IS NO DIFFERENCE from black and white x01ht! But, there is new series, "March Edition" x01ht, now with white option...
It's same phone with refreshed OS ROM and new radio-bootloader! This radio-bootloader is probably the reason why it can't be unlocked yet...

This issue plaque some batch of febuary 2007 manufactured.
so I guess that the new xo1ht, April release, can be flashed to English! And the radio too? Is it that you can't unlock it?

i'm kinda new at this whole thing too, but if i understand correctly, yes, you can flash an english ROM if first you flash Olipro's Hard-SPL to bypass the CID check (no need for permanent Super-CID)... but as for the latest X01HT's radio, there's nothing that can be done to alter this at the moment, so the phone can't be sim unlocked.
so english, yes. radio, no. sim-unlock, no.
i just got my X01HT a few days ago too with softbank's dreaded 1.14.01.10 radio and hoping for some breakthrough with that soon.
it's a pain in the ass living Japan sometimes. There's nothing for us English speakers. So if you can't flash the radio, can you still use the phone?

a pain indeed it can be. i love complaining about it! yes, you can still use the phone. i'm managing with mine. i haven't decided to switch over to an english OS or do any tampering with it until i'm completely clear on what voids the warranty and what doesn't. but even without all the fun cool hacking stuff, i must say i really like the phone. so far, i'm satisfied. and with the potential of unlocking, i can only guess it will get better.
keep me posted! I bricked my one and have sent it back to softbank to get fixed. That was a Dec 2nd phone. Don't ask me what I did wrong but I wonder if they'll upgrade it when they're fixing it. That's why I'm asking these questions. I'll let you know next week when I get it back!

Upgrading Ameo T-Mobile

Hi Guys,
i am new to flashing Ameo/Advantage/Athena, but am an experianced hardware "tweaker" with Pc's so am not too afraid to mess about a little, having bricked a few GFX cards in my past not too mention a few stern looks for the mrs when doing so
I need some help, i have just got an Ameo a standard T-mob one, brought 2nd hand, was formatted to factory standard when i got it
Want a hand i have heard from a few in the know that black touch is the way to go?
Is there a simple process to follow, i have looked at the threads above but they are over 50 pages long!?
perhaps just a simple 1.2.3.4... something to point me in the right direction?
Any help i am grateful for, Many thanks in advance
Pete
Step 1 Download Olipro Unlocker
Step 2 Run all 3 steps to unlock your phone comnpletely
Step3 Download APTouch Dual
Step 4 Run
Step 5 Enjoy!
Good instructions
I did mine last week with no problems. The only thing I would add is;
1. Make sure all your devices Ameo and laptop have a full charge before starting. Loosing power half way is a good way to get a brick.
2. Read, reread and print out the steps so that you can tick them off as you go along.
3. Keep wife, dog, kids etc. out of the way. You do not want to be distracted.
Good luck and enjoy your vastly improved device.
Thanks alot
i just have one further query, what is this radio 1.5 i have spotted being mentioned, i assume its not like fm radio and is actually reffering the the comms unit in the device, for gps or calls?
is this something i should consider or be thinking about?
Many Thanks
Pete

Did mine with no probs too. It is worth adding to the list:
- take out any memory cards
- stop any other programs running after boot - ie firewall/virus checker
It really is improved. The radio mentioned is the internal one. Flash the earlier version of the ROM which includes Radio v1.5, then follow with the later version which doesn't include it
Take a deep breath .....

Supercid/App. unlock ... is there a way to check?

I have a Cingular 3125 I just bought to tide me by, since my 8525 took a dump, and would like to upgrade to WM6.1. I ran the application unlock program and went through the supercid process, but is there a way to check if the process/application was successful? I didn't receive any alert saying such. BTW: I'm using a PC with Vista Home Premium.
What is the most stable WM6.1 ROM available for this phone? I know there have been bluetooth issues with some, which I can't have, since I use my phone a lot while driving (work related).
Also, I'm really not put off too much by the WM5 OS, but I'd really like to have the threaded SMS back. Is there a stand alone application that would allow me to add this to WM5 (if I end up keeping it)?

I'm surprised there hasn't been any reply to your post in the months since . . .
Yes, there is a little program you can run to verify application unlock - I can't remember the name of it or find it ATM.
Yes, there is a threaded texting program, called Extreme Text - works very well. http://www.birdsoft.biz/extremetext.htm
Thanks for the response, but I'm pretty sick of this phone already. I haven't upgraded the OS to 6.1, but I can't see it being much better than it is. Wish my 8525 didn't chew through batteries like it does!

Well, I think the StarTrek is a good second phone, 6.1 does make a big difference IMHO so maybe just give it a try. . . I'm very happy with Erofich's 6.1
Well, I guess I could give it a try.
I've flashed my 8525 several times and that was very easy. Sounds like this 3125 is a bit of a pain to flash. Would you mind clarifying the steps and recommending a 6.1 ROM?

I followed the steps in the first and third stickies: Application Unlock first, then CID Unlock. Particularly I followed the clear advice in post #12 of that thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1124770&postcount=12
Here's an amusing aside, RE: the build quality of this phone. I had loaned mine to my daughter's boyfriend, he set it on a table and lay down to take a nap. He heard it vibrating and ringing as a call came in, looked up and saw it vibrate itself right off the table and fall toward the floor. But at the exact spot it fell, there happened to be a glass full of water stationed - the phone fell kerplunk! right into the glass of water. He grabbed it out, pulled out the battery and SIM card, dried it the best he could, let it sit a couple hours, then reassembled. It works perfectly!
I have Erofich's 6.1 installed on that phone, this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374397
But I think I'm going to give DJ's 6.5.3 a try soon.
Good luck!
Well, I've got to say "you were right." I flashed my phone with WM6.1 and it made a world of difference. I'd be interested in checking out the WM6.5, but I haven't been able to find a version that'll run on this phone. You mentioned something about DJ's version; where might I find that?
BTW: Thanks for your input on this thread.

Yeah, that 6.5 looks like not yet ready for prime time.
