hi
i have a G4 imate jamin
i upgraded it to wm6 evo8enbefore upgrading i used the instructions to first install RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID and then upgrade to wm6.
my imate has changed into a QTECK (welcome screen)
but now that i want to downgrade and use the imate original rom i cant
it gives me error 296 (the nbf file cannot be used.)
i tried to CIDunlock using the wiki method.
when i run the downgrade.bat it worked fine and finished but when i soft reset to do the next steps (runnıng unlockcid.bat) my imate freezed and did not boot.
can some body help me on how can i install the imate orginal rom on my jamin again???????
By installing RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe you probably upgraded your SPL from 2.13 or 2.15 (i guess) to 2.20 and now when you try to downgrade your rom you receive that error.
I know because i did exactly the same thing with my first prophet but later I found dopod 2.15 . . . rom which didnt change my second prophet's SPL.
Now, since there is no solution (yet) for downgrading (unlocking) G4s the only thing you can do is: http://www.imei-check.co.uk/m600unlock.php. I havent! done that myself but someone sure has... Or you can try some other WM6 roms like Touch, Mysterious, etc.
Oh, and btw CID unlock is for G3 ONLY!!!
Maybe someone should update that guide so people dont get into these situations

Hi There
I'm now running the original but updatet T-Mobile version but i'd like to upgrade to WM6. unless it's her in german i'd like to have a possibility to downgrade again!
Can i just flash the old t-mobile files if i'm mad of rading english all day long??
Or will i need special rom to reflash WM5??
YOur's

you can downgrade to whatever WM5 rom you like.

I used the german AKU3.3 ROM and it showed 'Upgrade from V4.0.0.0 to V3.3.0.0'.
Maybe you have used an old AKU2.x ROM to downgrade?
And... try downgrading in bootloader mode (hold tape button while soft-reset until colored bars are shown, but you need different active-sync drivers for bootloader mode)
downgade problem
I succed to downdrade to germab t-mobile rom but i need a wwe rom ,i'm not familiar with german language,and the uk roms just don,t work .update error.
Once you upgraded to AKU 3.3 you cant go back to AKU2. The only thing that could help is flashing the prophet rom but it can be dangerous. Search the prophet section if you want to do it.
Hi vlodeck
I upgraded already to aku3, but i would like to upgrade to wm6
do you know a good way to do so ?
downgrading to aku2 does not work - as you said!
regards
use
BootLoader.exe anywhere (ïîìîåìó) Forum
hmm ... didn´t find a description what to do, but tried to downgrade back to orginal aku2 in bootloader mode:
ERROR [296] : UPGRADE ONLY
This NBF file cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please get newer NBF file.
How to downgrade 38221_382116_026921_TMO_UK_WWE_Ship

hi... i have a problem related with downgrading my jamin... currently i am using the Jester AUK 2.2 rom... i installed it because i upgraded to WM6. but now i want to go back to the orignal imate rom that came with the set...the problem is that the jester rom upgraded my IPL and SPL version and the imate rom's are older so it won't install the rom... can any one help me out!!!!!!!
same problem here i have qtek nvid rom on wm5 to wm6 upgrade page now and it ain't going back to jamin rom even when i eatract nb file and used the ruu rom updater which dont checks upon rom and everything goes fine till 95% and suddenly stops and then i have to put back qtek nvid rom again
but i have no problems
i've the same problem
I do not think we can downgrade to any imate rom with software method.
I wanna downgrade too, so that I can send back for repair, my antenna is losen.... I m just using a piece of paper to fix it...
hi guys..i have a qtek 9100 g4 unlocked by hard spl...can you tell me what means downgrade before upgrade and how can i do it because wm5 contains ipl/spl?daca imi poate explica cineva in romaneste ar fii perfect /thanks !
This downgrade means reverting to your stock ROM. You stock ROM can be flashed to your device. (However you should remove HardSPL first because I don't know if it will cause RUU to treat your device as a G3).
However if this is your first time of HardSPL and you are already using stock ROM (i.e. never flashed), you can go ahead to flash WM6.
sorry...misunderstanding

1.i already patched with hard spl and i have a wm6 rom but before change wm6 roms i must downgrade to wm5 but i don`t know what is my old wm5rom and i suppose(but not sure)it was in german language so if i want to remove hard spl i must know for sure my old rom or there is another way to do that?
2.i don`t understand why i must downgrade everytime before upgrade to a new rom ,so if you enlight me i will thank you very much.
3.do you think the hard spl solution for ``unlocking``g4 wizards will brick my device?
....regards..

Hey all, this is NOT a "howz to git to Windowze Mobiil 6.!!!!" post, but rather a question about "upgrading" a ROM. I am currently running TNT's Windows Mobile 6.1 Proffesional ROM, and I have just learned that there is any upgrade to that particular ROM, and would like to know if I can safely upgrade to it from WM6.1, or do I have to downgrade back to the Love ROM and then upgrade again. Heres my device history if it helps:
Device=Cingular 8125, SIM Unlocked(using Lokwiz 3.0)
Original ROM=Cingular WM5.0
Current ROM=TNT WM 6.1 V1
Heres how I upgraded it originally:
Got it home, used the HardSPL method to make my IPL/SPL 2.26.XXXX(so my device IS a G4), tried to upgrade to WM6.1...no luck. Discovered that you have to upgrade to the LOVE ROM first, so I tried that...again, no luck. So I then used the SoftSPL.exe to temporairily CID unlock my device I guess, and then proceeded to upgrade to the LOVE ROM, then to the TNT WM 6.1 V1 ROM.
Now, my device is working fine, and I would just like to know if I CAN upgrade to the new V2 ROM, and if what I did to get this far is correct. ANy help is appreciated!

My opinion is that flashing the LOVE ROM was a unnecessary step. I never do anything like that before changing ROMs (flashing a stock ROM and the like)
That almost answers your question except that having used SoftSPL your CID block is still locked and SPL knows it so you must either:
1- Flash SoftSPL before flashing the TNT
2- Flash the HardSPL to not worrying about it ever again when wanting to change ROMs (my option - if i had a G4)
hope it's clear
cheers
PS:
Use WST to check if you SPL is HardSPL'ed or not with "Device Info" option
"G4 SAFE" What does that mean???

I have a question about What G4 safe?
I uploaded a rom with HTCLogo.nb+Splash.nb+OS.nb (I assume that because there is no IPL/SPL it should be safe for G4????)

Absolutely right m8
As you can see from the pics only the IPL and SPL have versions depending on the DOC chip (G3 3.08 in this case )

Thanx So much!
Hi,
I´ve an HTC Wizzard / T-Mobile MDA and i think AKU 3 was installes.
The bootscreen say :
IPL : 3.08.0001
SPL : 3.08.0001
GSM : 02.69.11
OS : 3.8.2.2
Is ist possible to upgrade the Rom to any custom Firmware?
I´ve found that this is an G4 phone but im not sure it´s possible to upgrade.
Maybe you can tell me it´s possible or not.
I hope my eglish is good enough so that somebody understand what i mean.
yes, you can

hi, yes, you can flash a new rom, but first of all, read , read, read and then read again, the process is very simple once you have readed the faqs (stickies)
good luck !!!1
Thanx for your answer!
I´ve read the Wiki and the sticky´s in this forum, i´ve searcht for my IPL/SPL Build and read this topics too.
But i´m unsure.
In the past (when the Wizard was new for me) i´ve read that the IPL/SPL 3.08.0001 (AKU3) wasn´t possible to upgrade .
Now i can´t find anything about that but i´m unsure.
Then i´ve read about Soft an HardSPL Flash but what is the best for me?
I´ve read that SoftSPL was better if you have warranty on your phone but my phone havent any warranty because it´s to old.
Should i use HardSPL to permanently remove the CID lock (then i should use only G4Save Rom´s - Right?)?
So Steps i want to do now to upgrade my Wizard :
1 . G4 Hard SPl CID unlock
[Solution] G4 Hard SPL (CID unlock)
But this tutorial say´s (After reboot the IPL version is : 2.21.0001 and the SPL is 2.21.olip) can the IPL 2.21.0001 boot the "old" AKU3 T-Mobile Germany Rom or must i update the rom with Mun's RUU imediatly?
2. I Update the rom with Mun's RUU after i´ve read this ROM Features, Ratings, Information and Program List topic to chose the best rom for me, G4 Safe only!?
Right or have i forgot some steps?
It´s done,
i´ve read some topics again and again und then i used the SoftSPL CID unlock and flash my wizard succesfull.
Thanx!
