Downgrading to T-Mobile Factory Defaut ROM - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin

Hello people, is there anyone who's got the default DUTCH T-mobile ROM images backed up? Or is there anyone who can tell me where to find them?
I've lost my dumped images due to an hdd failure!
A few months ago my Hermes is repaired by the T-mobile store, but they havent fixed all problems so i'll have to go back and let them repair it again.

Did you check the wiki for WM5 ROMS and WM6 ROMS?

Yes, I've cheked that one already,
I've found the dumpfiles... Backed them up before I started upgrading
I now got 3 .RAW files What to do with them?
Is it possible to use these files to restore my Phone?
Or are these files not the ones I need?
Do you know where to find a thread that describes what i can do with these files?

!!!Storage&Extended ROM - folders DISSAPEARD!!!

Anybody help me, please!
After I tried to use i-mate ROM 1.72, I realised it had some big bugz that causes when U use/install some kinda' applications it freezes totally and when you want reset your device the XDA2 doesn't boot the system, and you just see the bootimage and booting stops. It happens accidentally not depends on you at first sight.
Ok, I thought, I restore the system after a hard reset from my SDCard with XBackup. But after restore (XBackup said: "restore is complete") that freezing happend again. Just the bootimage, not more.
That's why I downgraded the ROM to O2_1.60 and tried to restore my backup file on SDcard created by XBackup. It worked, but it has another problem: after restore process xda2 can't see the 'Storage' and 'Extended_ROM' folders although after hard reset it seemed.
In the registry (\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Storage Manager\Profiles\TRUEFFS_DOC & TRUEFFS_DOC2) everything is normal and values the same than before the hard reset.
So, anybody has an idea what's happend and how can I get to visible this two folders ('Storage' and 'Extended_ROM')?
ROM 1.66
aNOTHER THING:
Has anybody the ROM1.66 in english language?
Can you put it here or give me a link or an ftp site where I can download it? I've been searching for it for 3 days and I can't find it anywhere on the net

Welcome to the club... I have the same problem and NO ONE knows whats wrong... I used Sprite Backup...
I gave up and trying to live without that freacking 16 MB Storage
My current rom is Qtek 1.72
And rom 1.60 won't help it...
:lol:
I have the same problem. After upgrading to 1.66 my "Storage" disappeared. How do I get it back?
Hi,
I spend hours on searching a solution for this in the registry... The only solution is to perform a new hard-reset en re-install everything manually...

Me fixed mine flash that rome which you had during backup, mine was "T-Mobile 1.6.06 rom" and then restore your data.. everything back to normal :wink:

New O2 UK rom Downfalls

Hey guys, I have just upgraded my rom and found a couple of downfalls with the new version.
1) the extended rom tools to unhide and unlock no longer work - extended Rom now seems inaccessable
2) the internal memory area called 'Storeage' has disappeared also, leaving me with 16k less memory than I had before the upgrade!!
Any ideas how we can get these back??
I don't think it is to do with the ROM upgrade specifically.
Have you installed any other software?
I had this a couple of times a while back whilst I was experimenting with different ROMs and BT stacks, doing backups and restoring, etc.
Have you tried a hard reset?
Also, look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=10473 where other people had same problem.
Thanks for the info; your'e right:
I checked the other thread you mentioned, and have given it a go...
If you perform a hard reset my device with the new rom has the storeage available and the extended rom unlock tools work again. Restoring a backup and they both disappear.
Looks like I am going to have to rebuild my system :-(
I suspect that restoring an old backup replaces lots of windows related files and registry settings. I tried to install the fonix voicedial from the ext rom post-restoring and it claimed i had the wrong ROM version!
So yes, a rebuild is necessary
Certainly seems that way. Oh well, good luck!
Running new upgrade over unofficial upgrade
Just being lazy here - can you just do a hard reset and run the new 02 update over the 1.72.126 ver. as it says wrong version when you attempt to run it from after a normal reset (incorrect language error)?
Cheers,
Ste G.
As a general rule it is never a good idea restoring a backup over a different ROM version - bit like restoring a W2K backup over an XP install. That said, the latest version of Sprite is supposed to be ROM upgrade safe.
I always use the opportunity to clean out all the crap by doing a full reload - bit like the twice yearly Windows rebuilds on my PC.

backup without SD card

I want to upgrade my i-mate pocket pc to either wm2003se or wm2005. My problem is that I want to back up everything on my phone first but I do not have a memory card. Is there anyway to backup directly to my computer? If not, how can i find the correct operator code (cellcom in Israel) so I do not have anyproblems putting the new ROM on my phone?

WM5 Upgrade **** up

Hi guys
I've just upgraded to WM5 making sure I ran a back up of my contacts and calander before.
The CompactFlashBackUpPim file is on my Storage card.
But now I have upgraded my ROM I find out there is no XBackup on WM5.
How do I get my contacts back.
I'm stuffed with out them.
I've tryed rolling back to what it was before but with no joy as the ROM has been up graded.
I'm really struggling here.
All my contact and dariy information have allways been back up using the x back up the old version.
I don't need to roll back from wm5 I just need to get my contacts back.
Is there a way I can do this.
I can't contact any one I've lot everything.
I have back up of the back ups on my PC but there all going to be in X back up format.
ARRRRRRRH
Didn't you ever activesync them to your PC?
Do you know anyone who'd be prepared to lend you a phone, xbackup to that, and sync to your PC, and then sync back to your new phone?
Any chance of downgrading and syncing?

I thought about this but everyone I know has WM5.
I have backups backed up on my PC but there all in xback up format.
I had everything in there fight referance for my comming holiday.

[Q] Please help, restore problem

Hi,
I have just updated my x10 mini to the lastest version of Android.
I followed Sony Erricson's advice and used 'backup&restore' to save all my data before updating.
However when I restore my data everyone works except all my contacts. I really need these numbers as I don't have another copy of most of them.
After some googling it looks like im not the only one with this problem, im guessing backups made in 1.6 are not readable in 2.1 or something. Very anoying, you'd think that would have been tested...
So, I have been trying to downgrade my phone back to 1.6 so I can restore from there but am having problems.
I have tried two different guides using two different programs but both have just stopped in error while flashing. Flash tool said I should check settings for debugging and unknown sources but these are ok and it still stops.
Can anyone help me?
Or does anyone know a way of opening the backup file (a *.sbf file) so I can get my numbers out of it and put them back on my phone manually?
Thanks in advance.
