Hi all,
i've got a slight problem with my XDA. After updating to WM 2003 (4.00.16) my GSM (3.23) seens to be broken...
It woked for a while and then out of nowhere. My XDA now wont boot. Th good news is that i can go into the bootloader.
What can i do now? Where can i get a good WM2002 image to put onto my SD Card? I'd appreciate any help!!!
Dear Fabi,
I know it might not be the suitable question, but could you plz tell the exact steps you did that led you to this situation. This is to allow you to get precise help, and to be a learned lesson for the rest of us, coz I was about to upgrade from 3.25 to 4.00.16 but prefered to ask first.
Don't worry, the guys here are way clever and I 'm sure you will get the help very soon ... TKR
Nooo problem. I was about to Sync my XDA via USB Cradle and noticed that my backlight was turned off. Also my Phone was searching for a Network (now I know why... :roll: ). So I thought it might be good to reset that thing..... *aghhhrrrr* That was a big mistake. After the reset I saw the boot screen and the backlight blinking twice. That was all. My Bootloader (5.15) says "GSM Error"... now I'm without Mobile Phone for a while :?
so in other words, 4.00.16 was OK but you screwed up the XDA by just doing a reset while the backlight was off ?? ... I 'm afraid I don't get it :?

Confirming you used the SD card method to upgrade, right!
Also what radio band is or was your XDA set to before the upgrade?
HTH
No I didn't use SD Card to update my XDA. I used The ROM-Kitchen to generate a exe and updated over USB cradle.
Im running my MDA (i don't have a XDA ) on a german GSM 1800. Eplus. It was always set to this option and I never even tried to change it.
@biso007:
I screwed my MDA because I did a reset. Thats right. But I had some backlight issues in the past few days after upgrading. The backlight sometimes turned off and there was no chance to get it back on... only a reset. I first thought the proplem occured again yesterday but then i saw that my MDA was looking for network. After resetting the GSM part was dead....!
So back to my problem. I now ordered a SD Card Reader/writer. Is it possible to resore my system via XDArit and a backup? Can someone provide me a working 2002 backup from boot, OS and GSM part? Or can I do this by myself. I really appreciate your help!! Thanks a lot.
Ok I see!
Do this then press the green phone button, tools, Options, Band
and post whats listed.
and yes its possible to restore your system via XDArit and a backup.
As far a the 2002 PPCPE ROM goes you should be able to download it from T-Mobile, so visit their web site and search their MDA upgrade/download section.

My MDA does not boot anymore! I can't get into windows and i can't sync anymore! I have the Radiostack and the 2002 image fram the T-Mobile Website but the image ist a NK.nbf. AFAIK XDArit needs *.nb1 Files? I also noticed that it seems not possible to write the GSM Part to the phone via XDArit.
Hiya Folks
I wonder if you could helpme with a bit of a problem, i have recently attempted to upgrade my XDA using the reccommended downloads from O2, this upgraded my ROM and the GSM part of the XDA. however when trying to get into my XDA it freezes, i can get into the bootloader but get a GSM error, am i able to flash the GSM, if so where can i get the flash and how would i carry this out. i have got into the GSM part of the bootloader and the GSM will not turn on. i have tried copying the GSM from a friends XDA only to find the message "please connect to RS232 and run PC monitor now"
Hope you can help
Cheers guys, you are truly more useful than the folks who we obviously look up to at O2!!!! Mind you this does not say much!!
Thanks again

I got a Wallaby PW10B1 from my friend.
The original ROM version is 4.01.16, but doesn't work.
When I downgrade it to 3.17.03 or special_rom_1.2, the PDA part works, but there is no phone signal.
I also tried some other WM2003 version rom, all of them don't work, which I saw a T-mobile screen and can't go further.
Could you guys help me to figure out the problem?
Thanks!
Where are you located?
PW10B uses 900/1900 MHz gsm networks.... Maybe this causes your problems with the signal.

Thanks for your reply. I'm in State College, PA, and have no idea which frequency Cingular is using here. I went to Cingular Store here, and put one of their SIM card in my phone, but there is still no signal.
I noticed another thing, with most PocketPC 2002 BIOS, my device is recognized as PW10A1, but on the back it's PW10B1. I tried couple of WM2003 ROM, none of them is working (can't enter the PDA OS, system will hung there after the logo is showed)
Do you guys have any idea what kind of problem it could be?
radio stack
rember i had same sort of problem try changing the radio stack don't use the 4.16 i could not get it to work
i think you have the same problem like me? yesterday, my xda is almost like your pda, but, i can found and fixed my xda and mr.stefan also help me just look in my title : " my Siemens SX65 AT&T wirelles No signal " maybe it can help you.

Thanks man! I will look at it.
Here's What You Need To Do . . .
Hi, bryt.
From the information you have provided, it appears as though you have an incorrect ROM image loaded on your XDA. The PW10B1 will adopt the personality of a PW10A1 if the ROM image for a PW10A1 is loaded onto it. However, this will not make a PW10B1 function as a PW10A1.
The biggest drawback of having the wrong ROM image loaded on your XDA is that you cannot apply the OEM ROM updates that were originally supplied by A.T.& T. Wirelese and Siemens. The reason these OEM ROM images won't load is because they actually do some device validation before loading. Originally implemented as a safety precaution, these device validation routines have become a hinderance because they prevent you from forcing a ROM update to correct a previous bad ROM update. There is good news though . . .
The PW10B1 has a mode that allows byte copying a ROM image directly from a flash card to the XDA ROM. I have converted the Siemens OEM Windows Mobile 2003 Update to a flash-writable nk.nb1 image file that can be written to a Secure Digital (SD) flash card and then force-loaded onto the PW10B1.
I developed this process after loading an undesirable ROM image on my PW10B1 in order to unlock it, which was successful. But, then I had a terrible time getting the OEM Windows Mobile 2003 Update back on the XDA.
I make the OEM installer version of the Windows Mobile 2003 Update available on my web-site. I do not offer the flash-loadable version on my web-site though. If you are interested in having the flash-loadable version of the OEM Windows Mobile 2003 Update, let me know and I will place it on my web-site and send you a link. The file is 32MB uncompressed and about half that size compressed, so I will probably put it on the web-site as a .zip file if you decide that you would like it.
Good luck!

Hi
I was given an Orange SPV M600 running WM5.0 I foolishly thought I would be able to unlock it to work with my T-Mobile sim (the only network I can get coverage at home) I ran an unlock tool from en.pdamobiz.com
http://files.pdamobiz.com/c/PDAMobiz.com_ProphetAKU2_unlockCID.rar
I managed to get to through to the completion of the Downgrade.bat process. I was then asked to sofdt boot the M600 but it now cannot be found by Activesync. I was unable to successfully run Unlockcid.bat and now it just boots to either the 'Orange' screen (displaying IPL 2.10.0001, SPL 2.10.0001, GSM 02.07.20 & OS 1.0.13.21 - the new OS I believe) or the 3 colour screen (displaying IPL 2.10.0001, SPL 2.10.0001) if I hold down the camera button.
Windows 5.0 has gone or is unreachable but I am assuming it can't be completely dead as I get a noise when connecting/disconnecting the USB lead....
Is this false hope? Have i killed it after 2 days of ownership??? Should I have attempted this process with very little tech knowledge - me thinks YES!
I would be eternally greatful to anyone who can help me out of this black hole..... I just need pointing in the direection of what stage the M600 is at and how to get it running on my T-Mobile sim.....
Thanks in advance
hi there, try going into the bootloader screen, when you connect the usb cable it should show on the bottom off your screen. then try uploading the orange rom you can find on the wiki page. if this works then try using the loki unlocker which you should also be able to find on the wiki page. i used the loki tool and it unlocked first time. hope this helps. let me know how you go.
The GOOD news is No you haven't killed it. It seems you have wiped the operating system from it. I would sugest searching for RUU-Prophet-G4-AKU2.2-2.20-2.47.21-Jester-r1.exe down load it and then get your phone to the multi colour screen before running the download. This should then update your phone
when I tried to unlock my phone, I couldn't get it to unloack at all till I put a orange pay as you go sim in the phone and registered the sim with orange then it unlocked first time.

Spot on. Thanks so much for the advice. Fingers666 & jazpa !! I'm back on track. M6000 is now communicating again. WM5 is resident. Just need to unlock the sim and I'm away. [email protected] tried loki 3.0 amd 3.0a with both Activesync 4.2 and 4.5 respectively without any luck so I've just spent £5 a http://www.unlocking.org.uk/ as they say they can unlock a G4 ver. We shall see!! Great help though and THANKS again to both of you
Please Help Meee!!
Hello i was wondering if anybody could help me.
I want to unlock my orange SPV M600 for free.
If there are any safe and free websites that anybody knows of could u please tell me.
Thank Youu!!
James Thomas
Download Lokiwz, it is quite easy to locate. Inside the folder you will find 1 or 2 cab files, copy these to your storage card and run them on your M600. Now run Lokiwiz from your PC, after around 12 minutes, it will display your sim unlock code. Switch off your M600 and insert the sim you want to use, at the prompt, enter your code lokiwiz generated. For around 2 minutes the phone will seem to have no signal, then it will connect.
Worked first time for me, my M600 was locked to Orange, now it works great with O2.
wonderful works great with G4
thanks

Hi,
I purchased the Softbank X01HT (post Dec) in Japan when i was working in Japan. I lived with the Japanese OS even though i don't understand Japanese because I didn't want to temper with it just incase something goes wrong and i can't use the phone. Well, now im back in Australia ... and i need to unlock it and flash a new ROM to it so that I can use it in Australia .. otherwise.. it is effectively a brick....
so.. i spent the past two days reading all the valuable information u guys provided... and in the end.. i decided to first unlock and superCID my phone using the AUTO_Unlock_v3a.bat provided by POF ... and then flash it with the Jasjam telstra ROM (RUU_Hermes_DL_UK_3[1].62.305.5_6275_1.54.30.10_108_Ship.exe) also found in this forum which received good feedbacks...
ok... after i executed the AUTO_Unlock_v3a.bat program .. everything went well... and at the end of it.. the screen even said.. successful in both unlock and superCID ... so.. i assumed that my phone is unlocked...
then... i went to flash my phone with the abovementioned jasjam ROM .. and this too.. everything went just fine ... and now.. my phone is working with this new ROM (cool! first time im able to read my x01ht coz its in English) ...
without a sim.. the OS works fine.. etc etc...
however, when i tried to put a telstra sim card in it ... its still simlocked ...
the SimLock screen comes up and requests me to input unlock code ...
so.. i did more reading and researched but can't find any solution to this ... i even tried that "unlock" code (22051978) but it doesnt work ...
Please.. can someone help me with this issue with my phone? now.. it seems that i just need to unlock my phone to use it as my jasjam ROM is working fine. Below are further details:
ROM version: 3.62.305.5
ROM date: 11/06/07
Radio version: 1.54.30.10
EtRom version: 3.62.305.116
any help/comments will be highly appreciated... thanks in advance...!
read somewhere that if you let the softbank go through the 1st boot and it installs all the extra stuff you wont EVER be able to unlock it again. some one else may need to clarify this but apparently you need to soft reset after you've reached the today screen but before the customisations start. if you didnt do this then you probably wont be able to unlock it. sorry if this is wrong/bad news.
Hope someone else can corroborate this.. cheers...
thanks for your reply ultramag69 although i hope that u r wrong.. hahaha
fingers crossed ... hopefully.. positive news from some experts ...
After re-reading the posts, i cannot find that I did anything wrong.
This link "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665" states that the unlocker v3a "can be used in all HTC Hermes devices, no matter which bootloader version the device is running", with the exception of "x01ht post April devices" (i.e., white x01ht).
However, my x01ht is black and is a pre-April device.
So, I am still not sure what is wrong. Please help please help any experts out there ...
POF ... if you are there.. please help ... i need your expert advice thank you in advance.
ultramag69, i think that you are referring to this "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=301952".
Quote:
"Here's how to unlock the new batch of SoftBank X01HT devices with radio 1.14.01.10.
This process is ONLY valid for new devices which have never turned on or let the SoftBank Extended ROM install.
If you have already let the ExtROM install you CAN'T sim-unlock it."
Fortunately, i find that this does not apply to me because my phone is not post april. Also, originally, my radio was never 1.14.01.10. It was 1.14.00.10.

hey bro!when you r already flashed v3a unlock,than you should down a software name like "Hard-SPL-V7",it will help you to unlock the exrom,make you able to flash the new os\rom...
"HARD-SPL-V7" has 2 software,1st is "RUU_signed.nbh",2nd is "RUUWrapper.exe".
devileric, read post carefully. snowboarder has no problem with reflashing oses, its the sim that needs unlocking now and hard spl WONT do that...
Still reading and researching. I'd probably retry the unlock tool. it cant hurt but may work... cheers
devileric ... yes ... ultramag69 is correct ... my new English Telstra Jasjam OS works like a beauty when it operates WITHOUT a sim card. However, when i try to insert a telstra (or optus) sim card in there, there is a prompt that requires me to enter a unlock code. Please note that the unlock code 22051978 does NOT work in this case (also doesnt work in alot of other cases that i read in this forum).
Ultramag69, thank you for your help and replies, much appreciated. I actually did try the unlocking program again (three times ) . However, when i execute the AUTO_Unlock_v3a.bat when my OS is the new telstra jasjam OS, my phone will freeze on the telstra startup screen after the radio update step of the unlocking program when it automatically resets. Thereafter, even when i perform soft reset again and again, it will just freeze there. When that happened the first time, I thought that I bricked my phone .. ahhaha.. but fortunately, I was able to simply go to the tri-color boot screen and then simply flash the above said telstra Jasjam ROM. This will get me back to square one, i.e., working Jasjam OS, but phone is still sim locked.
I spent another night last night reading the applicable threads. I find that quite afew other people had the same problem as me. And I also find that whenever such problem is posted, its either ignored or a moot reply is given.
So, for the experts out there, if there is a solution to this, please kindly let me know. I am sure it will others will find it helpful too. Thank you.
Sorry wrong post
Hi.
I tried to find this on the forum and wiki, but i couldn't, so i want to ask.
I got a used Softbank X01HT, and seller said it was unlocked, but when i put in my sim i can do things for about 30 seconds, and then there comes a U-SIM screen and it asks me to enter something, i guess ( It's in japanese ).
How can i get this to go away? Is it even unlocked?
ROM: 1.33.761.4
Radio: 1.16.00.00
When i make call to phone i does to through and people can all even though U-SIM screen is there, and when people call, it is possible to go to the menues and such.. But when they hang up it goes back to U-SIM screen.
Please help
I have already read the Post april X01HT thread, though it is not relevant in this case because this is model from 2006.
Thank you
this is SIM unlocked phone (radio version 1.16.00), but your Windows Mobile ROM is the original SoftBank Japanese version that enforces USIM message...
You can flash to some other Windows Mobile ROM, but make sure you check Hard-SPL thread first (sticky in Hermes upgrading etc)
Hi thank you again!
I read something like that in the SIM unlock thread.
So i just need to install Hard-SPL and then flash a ROM?
Do i also need to do CID unlock? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665)
I would like to be able to write japanese with the phone, so is that possible if i flash? I saw a thread about installing japanese input/output support, is that possible to install on every rom?
And can you reccomend a rom or post link to ROM you think i should install?
THANK YOU! can't wait to start using it.
Now i just tried the Hard-SPL thing. But i get Update error 260 saying my device is not connected. I have ActiveSync 4.5 open and i have synced..
so i don't know.
I don't know if it has anything to do with the USIM screen being on all the time?
I see Active sync closing down as soon as it starts updating.. but then it can't update, right?
easiest way is to use SoftBank SIM for flashing everything, that way you avoid USIM message...
if you dont have SoftBank SIM available, search for welcome.exe on this forum.
SoftBank put a software SimLock in the ROM which can be removed with welcome.exe from imei-check unlocker. (http://www.imei-check.co.uk/m3100unlock.php) Start it up with you phone connected to USB and ActiveSync enabled... After the program asks for some password file, just close it! (close dos prompt window)
About Japanese IME (kanji & kanna input), i prefer flashing some newer English WM6 ROM + installing separate Japanese IME from cab. Old SoftBank's ROM is very slow and limited...
Super CID is just there if you flash HardSPL....
HI, thank you!
I found out that the USIM screen goes away if you just press on the signal bar and say that you don't want to receive signal.. den i can ue it.. And then i could do the Hard-SPL which i did with no problem. thank you!
Ah so if i just download that program and close it down at that time the USIM screen with never come again?
Yea i want to flash it to newer. But i'm not sure which one because i've heard a lot of people broken their phone :/
could to give me a link to a few "good" English WM6 ones?, though i there is probablt many.
i will try out the imei-check thing now ^_^!
Once you flash HardSPL; when you want to flash only Windows Mobile ROM only you dont have to worry about bricking (destroying) your phone. Only flashing different radio could be dangerous.
For the version, you have to find out yourself, there are so many... Check Hermes Mobile 6 threads, there are even some special Japanese cooked ROMs if i remember correctly. Also check user signatures for what versions are different people using...
thanks so much! i managed to get the USIM screen gone with your help.
Ahh i see, but install new version wont it also change the radio? wasn't that dangerous?(sorry if i ask dumb question)
so if i chose this for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359458 i can still make it with Japanese IME?
i think i will try hehe!
that link you provided is Schap's WM6 Pro 4.31 ROM... It is one of the most stable out in the wild, and it comes without radio, so flashing that one should be safe.
Oh ok thank you! then i will try this.
Last question before i do anything
This that ROM it is still possible to do the Japanese IME thing?
I found this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298919
It explains something of getting japanese on phone, was this what you meant by japanese IME? or is there an other method, if yes, please telle me/ give link.
Now time to have your Hermes speak Japanese
Japanese fonts
Use the excellent work from Asukal, that you can find here:
http://www.asukal.jp/WM5/LetsJapanNo5.zip
I did have a problem with it: once I executed it, I could not sync with my Exchange server (Quite a pain for my push email account...)
Asukal found the solution: edit the registry, and change
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Mobem\CE-Star] "MyNLS" = "\windows\wince.nls"
Japanese input
Not using for myself, but these work perfectly (I tried):
http://www.asukal.jp/WM5/BagojsINPUT.zip
*** EDIT
If you prefer a Japanese input without the annoying "Floating bar", ie just the same input way as your original WM5 Softbank ROM, just downlaod and install the "MS IME31 J" link from Asukal's page:

That solution you mention should work fine, but newer solution is available. Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445550
Hi! THank you very much! i was finally able to flash the ROM!!
And i have installed the Japanese fonts and Input thing!
It works. but after install i can not sign onto MSN Live Messenger. Is there anyway to fix this problem?Maybe i should change something in Regedit?? Or should i uninstall the fonts again? :/
It gives me this message: There's a Connectivity problem. Make sure you're in an area with good reception and try again.
I have tried over and over and WIFI is up and working..
So any answer i would be so greatful and finally be able to use the phone like i dreamed of !
Thank you.
sorry, i dont use msn, i have no clue about it...

Ok thank you anyway!!
