Can i upgrade my phone with a new Rom? - G4

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!

CID - lock status, some basic questions...

Hello! Recently (3 days ago) I've 'midgraded' from BlueAngel to Prophet... THus I have some newb. questions
How to check whether my Prophet has a CID-lock? The Wiki has no "FAQ" section...
Another thing - flashing. There is nowhere explained in the Prophet section how to upgrade a G4 ROM. My PDA has AKU 2.0, which really pi**es me off, 'cause I've been using BlueAngel with AKU 3.5 for a while... 2.0 boots a HELL long, does some strange things I do not understand :/
As far as I understand, to upgrade my Prophet ROM I need a G4 ROM with compatible CID (unless my PDA has no CID-lock, but I do not know how to test this...). How and where from can I get the correct ROM? My bootscreen details:
IPL 2.09.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
OS 2.15.13.27
GSM 2.19.21
Ahm ... you dont need to unlook your G4, to Upgrade the OS with Smart1 or other Firmware ;-)
I have a locked G4 and all Firmwares work if you upgrade without IPL/SPL!!!

Prophet S200 G4 Extended Rom unlocker

I have already read lots of threads about extended rom unlocker but i didn't find anyone that gives a real solution for this.
I've tried many "Extended Rom unlocker" and i couldn't unlock my rom yet.
Is there any solution for this?
If anyone has an "Extended Rom unlocker" file, it's possible to show the link from where i can download it...
Thanks.
Fred
What Rom you are use?
Some Custom Roms havent setup the EXT_ROM. Then you cant unlock them!! Unlocking is a Driver setting with enabled or disabled Writing Prodection and make them visible!

GSN: 02.07.20
OS: 2.10.7.24 PTG
EXTROM: 2.10.7.9330

I would like to upgrade my ROM, or even update my device with WM6, but without unlocking it i can't.
I've already register at HTC site, but there is no offical ROM update for my Qtek S200 G4.
If it's possible to unlock the rom, where do i find an official rom update PTG?
Thanks.
I have the same problem, I cant load any new roms, or WM6, nothing except my default rom.
Please help, how can I unlock rom & load new one to my S200 G4 ?
Thank you
You must first unlock your SPL and then you can flash any ROM you like.
If the SPL ends in "1" the device is a G4 else is a G3.
I have attached the program for unlocking the SPL. I already used it, and now I am testing any ROM I like on my S200.
Just run "RomUpdateUtility..." after you sync your device. If after this procedure on your startup screen apears on SPL "4PDA" you solve the problem.
If you have any questions post them here.
ps:sorry about my english.
This work with W Vista???
I don't know. I didnt tested it on Vista.
hi
i have done the update and it shows 4pda on it, whats the next step to get a rom on it, can you give a short step by step guide and if possible a rom that i can download to try, or a link for roms, i really want the wm6.5, i find it complicated as you can only flash certain roms and a certain way, or is it the same way i have done this hardspl g4?
the radio version is 02.07.02
thanks

G4 Prophet WM6 Update

Hi,
Is it always necessary to cid unlock a device (G4) for WM6 flashing?
Because I read that there is currently no way doing this for free... or?
Thanks.

Read the wiki at first. You don´t have to unlock for flashing, but to downgrade your prophet to a special version. Then you can flash some of the versions you prefer.

CID lock has nothing to do with the OS. you can upgrade/downgrade your OS with CID lock phone. on the other hand you can not dowgrade your IPL/SPL if your phone is CID lock. ( don't change IPL/SPL if you don't know what they are)
Yes, before I can upgrade to WM6 it should be AKU2.2 ... Which software version is it when I look at device information?
so, if i have a g4 model with wm5, can i upgrade with the PDAViet 4.0.0.0.6 Touch? i've been reading wiki, but... there are always some kind of a fear to do the things for the first time...
thank's wiki's masters!

I do think there's some people that don't understand english...
What loverbadi need to know concerns IPL/SPL versions, that are update by software.
What identifies G3 from G4 it's the last 4 digits (numbers) at the end of IPL/SPL version.
The first digits identifies the IPL/SPL version...
He needs to now how can he upgrade or downgrade this version, not to upgrade from a G3 device to G4...
Try to learn english language to read well what is write at this forum...

Hi guys
I thought i had a bricked Imate Jammin .. in bootloader mode ..so i used Qtec RUU to flash my phone ... and it started working ofcourse with lots of searching and help from this forum ....
Previously my phone IPL and SPL were 2.13 but after writting ROM phone works fine but IPL is still 2.13 and SPL 2.20 so i am really confused .. Also is it possible now to flash it with Imate Jammin software of the same version .. be it 2.13 or 2.20
If yes please guide me to the right software ,,, I am truly a noob
thanks
Mike
Lastest IPL/SPL is 2.58 ... you can found on a TC-500.
NOW it is possible to downgrade SPL. Just flash HardSPL, after that you can DOWNGRADE SPL to any SPL you want!!!

cannot install imate jamin original rom after installing evo8en - help

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
