Having a few Problems with MDA Compact Update

im trying to update to the tmobile-uk_wwe_ROM_1.12.00
but when i try and copy it to SD Card all i get is Parameter is Wrong
i downloaded the update from here
and i have even tried editing it by copying the orignal 416 bytes
Please Help
P.S if i install the Bigstorage WWE_1.12.00
will that update it to
tmobile-uk_wwe_ROM_1.12.00
Thnaks

ok, i have now got past that part, but i can not install the new Update, cause the files are different
on the new update the 416 bit that you copy over is no where near the same as on the Original.nb1 file
so it will not flash, just sits there saying Serial or USB in Bootloader

I noticed this also, and gave up on this rom. I think we need a clean dump as like you say the first 416 bytes don't look like thr real article.

Does anyone have a Clean Dump for the
MDA Compact - T-mobile - UK - Update
Please

Same problem her
Hello there,
I'm having the same problem?
rom 1.01.00 wwe
radio 1.00.10
I'm allready trying to update for about 3 month's still no luck.
Would you be so kind to set me up if you know something.
Thnx!

Hello,
Try to flash you magician with the rom for the SPVM500 it worked for me.
If you don't want to have the setting from Orange, just reboot after it says "tap the sreen to compleet".
Good luck.

Still no luck!
Hi There,
Thnx! for your help but when I load the upgrade it gives me a country id error? again.
With regards,

Use MAupdate_Noid.exe it´s in the upload directory.

Still nothing.
HI there thanks again!
If I run this app it saya the needed dll is missing, RUU.DLL
Thnx

Did you extract all the file from the execute file, you will have about eight files. Copie the MAupdate_Noid.exe in the same folder and run it. If this wount work, run it from bootloader mode, hold the camera button and the power button and reset the divice at the same time. Your screen will shows Serial or connected to USB, USB. Run the file again.

Error 150

Need Help Restoring Original ROM (from Backup)

Hi All, I am after advice on how to get my original ROM back.
I upgraded to MksBiGStorage, and following the instructions I backed up my original ROM first.
My original ROM is on my Hard Drive but I think because I used a 1Gb SD card to back it up with ntrw.exe, it is 1Gb in size.
I was hoping I could just use ntrw.exe and transfer my 1Gb backup ROM back to my SD card again using ntrw.exe and then hard reset my phone and it would see the ROM and install it - BUGGER, that doesnt seem to work.
Can anyone tell me how to get my backed up ROM back onto my phone? Or does anyone have the Original Orange UK SPV m500 ROM I could download and install?
Desperately want my original phone back - Please help guys, you are my only hope. (I Sound like Princess Leah asking Obi-Wan).

guess i'm Yoda then
Think you put the rom after your sd's mbr with ntrw. To solve this do the following steps:
- create a romdump of your current rom, you know how don't you?
- now copy your backup rom on the sd without formatting it.
romupdate has overwritten the sd's mbr and ntrw will happily write the backup.nb1 image at the start position of your sd.
Now your magician should be able to se the image.
Also you cashrink your backup image extremely. Open the mksbigstorager romimage in hexedit go to the last byte and get the address and bytes. Now open your backup, go to the same address and look for the same bitpattern as it is very recognizable this shouldn't give a problem.
Now delete all the bytes behind them & you're left with a handy 64Mb image
Good luck, M

I dont mean to sound ungreatful for your reply, but I have no idea what you mean.
I only have one backup of my old ROM, and that is the 1Gb file on my hard drive.
Can you give me a step by step procedure for restoring it?
If I understand correctly, you are saying to backup my (not wanted) mksbigstorage ROM again to SD (which will write the MBR to the SD.
Then, copy my original ROM back to the SD using ntrw, then try and insert my SD back into my device and it will work?
Is that right?

Yes that's right the rom-dump will overwrite/destroy the mbr. After that write the old 1Gb file on the same sd without formatting it, then it will work.
I'll post the steps to cut the 1Gb to 64Mb later as I need access to my PC for details on it. I did it myself as BS 1.13 on the ftp is my image and around 64Mb in size & mksbigstorager can do it too only that will do it with the BS patch & manually you get it without.
first thing is to get your old-rom on your device so start dumping ;-)
Regards, M

oltp, thanks for your help man. I am currently transferring my ROM to the SD.
Where abouts in NL are you from? I love NL - You guys rock
If ever I get the chance I will retire/emigrate in the Netherlands. Love it.

Just inserted card, and it says its trying to update the ROM.
MANY, MANY THANKS for taking the time to answer my questions.
I really appreciate it.... YODA!

You're welcome I'm just the messenger in this, someone else 'discovered' the mbr problem & posted it here.
Glad it works for you too.
Regarding the of the world I'm from the home of cannabis (Amsterdam) & live now near the city from 'a bridge to far' (Arnhem). Love it here too near the forests etc. Somehow the Dutch get a lot of bad credits lately in the news so it's nice to read that there are people liking Holland. So thank you & I guess you're device is ready for use by now.
Cheers, M

Absolutely spot on.
Once again, thanks for your help - I had almost given up.
I hope this helps others out aswell who need to revert back to the original ROM.
Regarding the 1Gb file, there are a couple of people in another thread of mine who obviously didnt back their ROM up and are asking for the original Orange UK ROM for download.
Is it safe to upload the ROM I have for them? I dont understand why its not downloadable anywhere on the net at the moment?
I will happily upload this ROM for others if its not going to cause licensing issues or invalidate my ROM at all.
I took a look at using the HexEdit program and think I know what I need to do, but selecting all the bytes after the address seems to take AGES! FOREVER.
Thanks again for your time oltp, I am well chuffed

Excuse me for my bad English, you better select to first 64Mb & save that part in a new file don't forget to include those footer bytes.
When you don't want people to get your device id, just replace those first 416bytes with a looping 'please put your own 416bytes here' or something simular. Must work don't you think?
I just uploaded mine as I hope, guess, belief they're not able or willing to backtrack me in the coming 18 months. Then my contract ends & I probably get a new 'phone'.
So pls upload your shrunken & zipped image you can pls a lot of others with it.
Cheers, M

Actualy you should first understand that even if your Trëo is compatible with wm6.1 you must be sure that it is compatible with the rom that you are trying to install,
Next you should try to download the rom again so you can be sure that the rom you are trying to load is not corrupted...
and if all this is done you will probably need to try out the USBcable install mode!
Realy hope that you can solve your problem
[[]]

ROM, is the third different source (same version) to ensure no corruption.
USBcable install mode, can you provide any further details?

strange that you can't install that, it's usually very simple and fast...
let me see if I understand, you are saying that you are trying to install the file when it is connected to your computer but the "cheeming" is on the SD card?!
If that's what you are doing just unplug the USB cable, you can't sync and use your SD at the same time... Just use the POWER cable and repeat all the process...
If that doesn't work for you, you should create a folder on your computer desktop and copy the "cheeming" to that folder, next copy whatever program you have used to change the SPL to that same folder.
Make a backup of the original files from your mobile, I hope you wont need them, but you should backup anyway...
then run the program and "cross your fingers"...
in about 5 or less minutes it should be done, and your treo should be runing your new WM6.1
This is the "risky" way, because you can "brick" your Treo, and I can assure you that it isn't easy to "unbrick"!
Hope you can do it with the SDcard method.
If I can help in any other way, please post or add on msn.

couple things to do. download a kaiser custom ruu. unrar or unzip your new rom you want to flash. best to have seperate folder to do this. rename the rom file to RUU_signed.nbh then run the kaiser ruu and follow the steps. very simple to do. make sure active sync is enabled before doing this.

[Q] Can't bootup samung galaxy s

Hello everybody,
after I deleted some file/maps from my root sd I could not startup my samsung galaxy s anymore. It stops while displaying the samsung logo. I think there is no (working) booting system available anymore.
- I can start the recovery mode (2e).
- I can start the download mode.
In the recovery mode I can only use update.zip. This is no option because I can not enter the root to put an update.zip file there. Is there a way to get update.zip to the root (internal sd) or is there a firmware which support an external micro-sd card. Or maybe there is a program which can recover my galaxy s. A this moment it looks like my phone is broken.
Is there anyone who know a solution for this problem?
Please please help me!
Thanks for your reply!

Hi Martijn,
I'm assuming you're using a stock firmware (nothing fancy like DocRom, Darky, etc.)
Since you can enter download mode you could use Odin and try to flash a firmware.
If you can remember what firmware you currently are using my guess would be you might actually keep your data.
Try samfirmware.com, register en download the right one. There are a lot of flash-guides you might want to read before you begin.
Sincerely yours,
Jeroen.

Thanks for your anwsers! I found the solution for my problem on this site (Dutch):
