rw6815 Rom copy - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading

Hi,
I have 2 Ipaqs rw6815 on with a new and one with a older rom version. Now I want to backup the new rom and upgrade the older one to the new version.
I managed to reset into bootloader (BL1.0.5 or PBL1.0.5) and already tried it with mtty or romupdate to get a usb console, it detects the usb connection but doesnt come up with a prompt.
Any help appreciated !!!!
I have a bit of experience. Updated a bricked hw6515 successfully.
Thanks a lot !
SAxxon

Hi
How did you manage to flash the bricked 6515? I have an 6815 and it just doesn't work...
Did you use the JTAG method? (I just can't, I don't have the resources and knowledge)

Can't enter bootloader on xda II help needed

Hi to all, my problem is that I can't enter the bootloader. in other words I can enter it(power+navigation buttom and reset) but i only see the word Serial and v1.01, and when usb is connected I see USB v1.01 , i can't see d2s or any other information and options. I wanted to flash my rom to SD using Multi-Port/USB TTY . I did a search on this forum but no luck so if anybody can give me a hand I'll appriciate it. Ciaoz Mine is XDAII the german verwsion.
Please anybody can give me a step by step info on how to copy the original rom to SD card, I need to change language from german to english and I want to keep the original german rom just in case. Thx
Does it have to be on sd there are other way of doing it which I will be able to talk you through (I think) if you need a hand
Well I was thinking to flash it to the sd in case the phone goes dead and you're out of activesync so the only way of flahsing it will be through SD. But another way of flashing is more than appriciated so I'll be waiting for ur guide.. do u happen to know why I can't see the options in the bootloader? thanks really
1st ... I have no idea why you cant get into the bootloader. On my xda 2 after a cold reboot i just get the serial and then when in the cradle I get usb, from their I dont know what to do. I would class myself as a newbie as well but I can talk you through what I did.
Which rom is it that you want to flash?
The extended rom or the Os rom?
i'm willing to flash the OS rom and not the extended. My version is 1.03.00 Ger and I want to flash to the "Dangaard (Qtek) 1.60" or RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL version which is an english one although I heard some people had their phones dead while doing so. I must find a way to back my rom 1st.. Did u do the update urself??
Yes I did the update using a programme called
HimaUpgradeUt.exe
I was originally after flashing the extended rom only, but due to not fully understanding the instructions at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=6470&highlight=
I made a mistake and flash the Radio Stack - the OS and the extended rom as well. After this I worked out how to use HimUpgradeUt.exe to flash the extended rom only. I am guessing that if you follow the same procdure for flashing the rom and flash the OS you will get the same results.
However I haven't tried it yet. I am hoping to get the radio rom and the OS rom for O2 xda2 and try it but until them I cant confirm it. I am only guessing that it will work?
So its up to you I have successfully updated the extended rom 4 time but I just dont have the files to do it?
Where did you get you Os file from?
I already tried Multi-Port/USB TTY program , but in the instructions it says"
3. boot the machine into bootloader mode (hold the Power and directional pad , then push reset)
4. Run the rompdate utility, select the comport as "wceusb001" or something like that as the default comport." The problem is that After going into bootloader mode I launched the romupdate utility but in the com-ports I only see com1 and com2 ,there is no wceusb001!!. And where did u see the d2s that I hear about??
I've got the downloads from the forum this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=6214&sid=0dad85b97d280219dc51962a01a4997b and the other form here http://shop.store.yahoo.com/cellpoint/tmobilemdaii.html
It seems that we are taking cross purposes here.
Using HimaUpgradeUt.exe you can update the roms using .NBF files,
hence the way in which I updated all 3 of my roms in one go.
Radio.nbf
Ms.nbf
Exteneded Rom.nbf (can’t remember the actual name) it looks like you are using a different up loader or have different files to upload. I can only really help with advice on the process that I followed. I can provide you with the files that I had, if you want it will change your 02 format to I-Mate in English.
Does this help?
well I know we have differnet purposes but we should use the same tool I guess if we followed this link. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=6470&highlight= and the tool is Multi-Port/USB TTY program to back up rom or extended rom. Please provide me the info to back up the rom no matter if to SD or HD. Thanks for ur time man.
I think that you can try using ositools I will find the link and then post it, but again I am still not sure how you reinstal it afterwards

I am in the same situation with you, have you solved yet?
Serial / USB V1.01
I had the same problem, and I found the cause to be a USB Hub. I found that when I plugged the cradle directly into my PC I managed to load the update without any further problems.
I hope this helps
you have to disable usb or com port in activesync, before trying to connect with mtty, or terminal program.

HELP my MDAII is dead after downgrading!!!

Hya
I tried to downgrade my MDAII from the ROM 1.72 to ROM 1.66.
But after downgrading it, it looks like my MDA II is dead now...
It doesnt do anything anymore
Now I got a white screen with upper writing "SERIAL"
and down "V1.03" and no backlight at all...
Can somebody help/guide me how to fix my device?
I'm a newbee and need yoru help
Many thanks.
'Serial' just means that its trying to communicate in Serial mode, if you drop it onto the dock/charger (assuming that is connected to your PC) the word 'Serial' should change to 'USB'. If it does then try the downgrade again.

Don't worry, it's not dead. If the downgrade process completed normally, you just need to do a hard reset (press power button while holding stylus in reset hole). If this doesn't help, the downgrade failed.
The most likely reason is that you connected the cradle to a USB hub. Try connecting it directly to your PC, then perform the flash procedure again.
Another possibility is that you used Windows 95/98/ME. Some users have reported problems. Try the flash procedure from a Windows 2000/XP system again.
Hope this helps!
Daniel
nope it doesn't work, i've got the same problem!
Don't know what to do...
Thanks tadzio: B4 l have same problem Rom failure , and l try to reinstall
again, flash Rom now :lol:
I post a original latest belgian rom on this forum (rom from dangard), try to install this version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8403&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=75
you need to dowload this file (a shortcut) on your pc, then execute it following the procedure.
Bye
I solved the problem for me:
With HimaUpgradeUt.exe there was no connection. It was a too old version (0.5.0.0).
So I replaced it with Version 0.6.0.0 and it runs !!!

hp rw6828 wm6 (odd conditions) -> wm5

Hi guys,
Hi,
I'm a hp rw6828 user and is very much enthusiast to try out those wm6 roms made by those experts. However, i did a mistake while trying to flash.
I tried flashing with a rom from wantat but i forgotten to delete the EBOOT.nb0 before i clicked "upgrade". Then the program stopped at 6% for a long time and didnt move. I disconnect the cables and tried to turn the device on.
THe device can go into the wm6 and the start button can be use but the screen is "moved" to the right side and other function is not working.
After that, i did a hard reset and the the os seem to work like normal. However, when i tried to go into bootloader mode by pressing both "_" and soft reset. That didnt work. I tried another way by taking out the batt, leave it for a 10mins, press both "_" and soft reset, put in batt, release soft reset then "_" keys. That didn't work either.
But, just lately, i've tried taking out batt, holding the camera key and softreset, place back batt, release soft reset n camera button. This method works and i get what it seems to be an atom bootloader?
i get a black background with "MN1 Bootloader Mar 29 2006 13;52;14 copyright..... 1) debug module through UART 2) jump to DM Enter your selection.
I've searched the forums and found few ways to downgrade back to wm5 but those aren't the same conditions with what im facing. Can someone recommend how can i downgrade back to wm5 with the conditions that im facing? All you help is much appreciated. THank you.
You are lucky , at lease your device now become atom. My was totally cannot on power and just vibrate. Till I have to sent it back to HP SC and change the main board . Can you understand chinese , if yes than I have a solution you may try . Else you have to wait . I just download a program and doing some testing , the program is in chinese language .
Thx for you reply. I guess u can say that. I'm from msia but cant read chinese.
Is it possible to solve the problem by sending back to hp using warranty claim? I think i still have warranty left but its ending very soon. One more week i think.

I don't think you still can claim under warranty unless you can make your phone total can't on and access to windows mobile. Last time I sent it back they charge me RM 385 to change the main board . I did talk to their technical personal , it seen like they don't know what is bootloader and flash it back to original rom . What they do was just change the main board with preloaded program .
Good luck
If you think that you can claim you warranty , than you just go a head . If not , may be you can access my thread "HP6828 WM6" , download any one of the rom that I post , follow the instruction accept downgrade bootloader . Enter your phone in bootloader mode . If you can start the process , than it will flash a new hp bootloader into your phone .
Against . Good luck
Cheers
I'm from malaysia also.
Ok. I'll try your method to restore the bootloader. Thx for the fast reply. I'll keep u update with the progress. Thx again.

Can share the information how to restore back the HP original bootloader ? And the procedure . Thanks
First you must have HP bootloader file (Eboot.nb0) 1.01 or 1.05 are OK.
- Use DRUU to restore Bootloader : replace ATOM bootloader file with HP bootloader file
- Use miniSD to restore Bootloader : copy Eboot.nb0 to miniSD card, go to bootloader ... wait 1' it will auto hard reset.
After flash successfull remmember remove Eboot.nb0 from miniSD.
- Reflashing Bootloader using JTAG. (Use only when can't use two above menthods)
HP Bootloader 1.01 : http://rapidshare.com/files/82853862/HP_BL1.0.1.rar
HP Bootloader 1.05 : http://rapidshare.com/files/82853924/HP_BL1.0.5.rar
nhocbanme could you please specify which specfic DRUU should be use for your method? Thank you.
You should use DRUU of Chartreux, replace Eboot.nb0 and choose OS and Eboot
Remember copy a HP68xx ROM (diskimage_Ver.nb0) to C:\Windows\Temp with DRUU of Chartreux then start...
nhocbanme, you explanation seems vague to me. Probably cause im still new. Could you please give a clearer instructions? Thank you

-You must extract RUU in C:\Windows\Temp (no sub folder) then replace Eboot.nb0 with Hp bootloader 1.01/1.05
-Copy a diskimage_Ver.nb0 (any ROM WM6 for HP 68xx) to C:\Windows\Temp
-Run the DRUU program and choose OS and Eboot and start.
Goodluck !!!
It worked! Thx a lot nhocbanme and wantat. The methods restore the atom bootloader to hp bootloader. The DSUU by chartreux is a good tool.
Now, i would like to put this solution up into the wiki. How may i do so? Thank you.

help !!
im facing another problem again...
this time i changed the file extension EBOOT0502_MNT_01.01.03.nbf to EBOOT0502_MNT_01.01.03.nb0
(file from HP official WM5 SP34074, inside the installed folder )
and copy to memory card and put in 6828 then started to go bootloader screen
few minutes later my screen goes blank, and i tried with the revive methods
which is
-press the 2 softkey " - " and reset button
-put in the battery ,
-release reset, then release softkey
but didt work out!!!!no repsponse at all..tried many times..possible dead ad???
plz help me abit ..big troblem!
I dont think i can help u much here as im still new. From the looks of your problem, i guess u forgotten to cut the first 12bits (or something like that) of your bootloader when u use it to flash via mini sd. Maybe you can try the JTAG method mentioned in the atom wiki to restore your bootloader. Good luck.
Thanks guys!
The same exact thing happened to me yesterday..I was already about to sell my ipaq as a dead unit and i came upon this thread and after following the steps it did made ipaq alive again..
thank you very much guys,i hope you continue to help more people..
god bless and best of luck to you

Fu*ked my athena plz help!

Hey guys today i downloaded the latest shipped rom from htc for advantage not knowing that the spl was 1.10! and mine was 3.50 so now i'm stocked in bootloader screen now knowing what to do and cant flash any rom! i tried some cmds with mtty but not working. tried removing battery but not working and still stocked in bootloader... i know that this can be fixed but dk how. plz help guys and gals.
before upgrading i was usin Sogarth's base rom and now i get spl 3.50 olinex on the screen.
the ruu cannot connect through usb with bootloader... stocked! anxious
you may want to try this
check that spl3.5 is still in your device (it says in bootloader)
If 3.5 is there
disconnect your device
switch off computer
reset device ( it probably boot stray into bootloader)
switch on your computer
connect the device
install appropriate room for your SPL
that worked for my
( I believe that enable rapi is there to allow for usb comms, but when you connect the device bootloadeR will change from serial to USB
As long as spl 3.5 is in the device OK you should be able to recover
p.s. if room install comply follow recovery procedure, (remove battery)
good luck
room = rom?

yeah
anyway, yes please tell us what your SPL version is now. I'm sure it is still 3.50.
also, have you tried reflashing the OS? the RUU can most certainly connect to bootloader. just run it in the normal way..as if the Athena was running WM
the only prob was that pc couldnet connect through usb with bootloader tnx PBL1 and tnx cmon... i solved it! i was shocked cause i thought i mixed up the device! tnx anyway

I downloaded airey's WM 6.5, it's upgraded my bootloader to 1.0.5, and i cant downgrade... ( i have broken usb connector..) I can't upgrade my rom, to newest versions.. I uploaded .nb0 files to the mmc, but 5-6 mins, and the phone is restart, with airey-s ultimate rom.. (the older)
Anyone can help me please?

So, i want to ask a question. I can downgrade the bootloader with mmc?
