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
Hi I know the big storage hack is plastered all over this forum but i still cant get it right.Some one please help me!
Ive got a magician with rom version 1.13.00 WWE radio v. 1.12.00 (i used to have 1.12.00 but i upgraded it by accident.<I woz finkin of it anyway>)
I fink Ive tried every procedure possible but always have problems but basically this is what ive done:
1.Using OS image tool ive copied my rom to pc.
2.Ive changed the 80 00 00 thingy to b8 01.
3.Ive tried to use the os image tool to write it back t ppc but it comes with a usb/communication error in programme A.Im using this way because I have only 32mb mmc card.
Any help would be much appreciated,
Thanks
wiki
Try the wiki (top right link on the page) & go to the magician section. It contains a description howto patch a shipped-rom, the one you used to upgrade to 1.13WWE, & get BS. Apperently you missed this method.
Cheers, M
I already have all of them files.Wen I patch it the size goes right up then 'programme a' doesnt copy it over becuase its too big.it has 2 b excactly 32 i fink and after i patch it the size changes.
My main problem is getting the rom over 2 the magician.Since I dont have a card the only 2 ways i can fink are using osimage tool or program a, both of these im having problems with.I have roms that i have patched and changed the 416 bytes to my roms.I have roms that were patched and ive changed to my roms.I have roms made using byte copy.I just cant get any of them over!!
Thanks 4 ure help,
Gareth

Stop,
You're going in the wrong direction. The BS from shipped-rom method is about patching the provider supplied exe file. & after the patch you run it like a regular rom-upgrade. No SD or MMC involved!!! It's a rom-update via USB like the normal update.
pls read it once again @ the wiki.
ok thanks im trying that now.Im stuck on getting nbfdec to run.Ive extracted it to the unzipped rom folder.I open ms-dos command prompt and drag and drop the .exe on the command line to save typing the path.The program runs but then it crashes.Can anyone help me?
Try putting everything in "C:\BS" saves a lot of typing errors including filename handling.
Ive done that now but I dont know how to execute the command.Do you think you could type the whole command for me?When I open command prompt it says this c:\documents and settings\rod simpson\> ive tryped typing in that command but i dont know how to put it in with the path etc.
Sorry for going on and on I cant get my head round it!
Thanks

Hi Rod,
To go to C:\BS from your personal doc&settings type on the commandline:
cd \ [Enter]
now you should be in C:\
then type:
cd bs [Enter]
now you should be in C:\BS
Works for other directories too.
Cheers, M
Thanks, that helped me a lot.Ive done everything els now so I converted it back to nbf and then executed the maupgrade_noid.It checked device info then displayed the rom to and from screen and both were blank.I proceeded and it displayed the 'success' screen but nothing had actually happened on the ppc.Ive tried the other upgrade program and the one thats cracked on the site.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
Did you reset after the update process finished? & if so did it boot normally? & if so did you look at the internal storage folder size? Cause that's the only thing that's changed & the ext-rom has disappeared. Oh & you shouldn't see the customization start after a hard-reset...
btw rom to & from shouldn't be blank, pls run the update program without patch cause I think the editing somehow invalidated the shipped-rom. The original upgrade program should work & if so you know what's going on. If the original program fails there might be something with your device.
So start the plain shipped-rom first to find out..
Thankyou!Its worked!!
I went from scratch and downloaded all the files again.This time i didnt put my own header in the file because i thought thats where i'm going wrong.My devicedata.txt file looked like gibberish to me and it wouldnt copy and paste in to hex editor.So i just left it.I changed the 2 values in the code, converted it and flashed it.Will not having my header cause problems?My storage is now 26.72mb is that right?
Thankyou very much oltp for your help.It's much appreciated.
I think this site is long overdue a donation from me.

The header contains info about romtype & provider name, probably some things more I'm
not sure about. The reason for changing it is to avoid errors like the country id error. With the use of maupgradeut_noid it's less important.
One thing I'm questioning is the reason why some of us have probs with connecting to the, I believe, special O2 services. Some claim there not able to connect anymore... Can some other setting as well. I'm on T-Mobile & everything works fine.
Basically if the upgrade was succesfull, you have an enlarged storage & the rest of your device will be working as before.
Cheers, M
how much space would i have in my main memory now? i have a 64+64 system (O2 Xda Mini) now branded to T-Mobile 1.33 and now applied the new patch (BIG STORAGE) using the Wiki Information guides. However any idea how much FREE space on first reboot i should have.
did the first reboot...(soft reboot) after flash...its been 3 mins and just the T-Mobile Screen..how lng should i wait before i "think" its a bad flash?
nevermind got it
Total Main Memory - (FREE MEMORY) - 43.99MB Storage / 25.54 MB Programs! woo hoo this is HOT

First boot takes much more time than next boots.
Have fun, M
all,
look over here.
cheers!
Sorry to say, but it's old news. We got a thread about it for three months now I guess with that method. Problem is you always need to update first & then dump your rom again. & somehow not all dumps are accurate. The brick change with a SD is larger than with a shipped-rom.

Hi all,
I'm happy to report that I am another sucessful Magician upgrader after reading all the guides on this site, with a 1.13 Magician + Radio + BigStorage ROM chugging away nicely on my O2 XDA II Mini.
Anyway, I decided to help in what way I can and compile a COMPLETE guide on upgrading the Magician to the highest-level ROM at the moment - the 1.13 ROM + 1.13 Radio, BigStoraged! This guide is basically a compilation of ampda's excellent guide, kta's brief 1.13 + 1.13 Radio guide and this thread here that tells of how to BigStorage hack ROMs on the SD card (instead of having to rip the ROM, hack it, and write it back onto the SD). All of these sources are also credited in the actual PDF .
Why this guide? Because all of the above guides, when combined, make for a quicker way to get 1.13 and BigStorage .
Hope someone finds it useful!
EDIT 1st March 2007: Due to the removal of Windows Mobile ROMs of this site (as explained here), the link to the T-Mobile ROM used in this guide no longer works. The removal of said ROMs from this site pretty much outlaws the linking to or distribution of these ROMs, hence I cannot help you find these ROMs either. Sorry . As such, please refrain from posting requests for ROMs on this thread. Do not PM me either asking for ROMs.
For clarity, the BigStorage update gives you a total of 26.72MB in Storage (ROM), with about 1 to 3 MB used up, most likely reserved for the 'Permanent Storage' feature found in Settings (this is not certain). The BigStorage update does not give you more 'Main Memory' (RAM) to use, however you may have more free Main Memory since operator files (eg. IntelliDialer, MMS support) are not automatically installed (as they usually are when your device is first 'Customized' after hard resets).
By the way, the link to the file is located UNDERNEATH THIS LINE. If you don't see a file here, then you're not registered or logged in. You must register and log in to the forum to see any attachments in posts. Please do not PM me about the file not being here unless you have done both of the above! (yep, I've recieved countless PMs on this)
Thanks! Will soon give it a try.
Thank you!
I was also trying to piece it all together through various threads and guides and getting confused by it all.
This guide is exactly what I needed, and it all worked fine.
Glad to help!
EDIT: Nuts, six seconds and I've already found an error Embarassed . Page 2 lists ntrw.exe and romupdate.exe as required, but the link there should be http://members.iinet.net.au/~apmoon/ppc/bs/AM BIG ROM Tools & Files.rar

Hi,
I could eventually manage the bigstorage rom, but no way to change the radio rom.
Your instructions do not mention the possible country error ID (like I'm getting), so I stil got 1.12, and no way to find how to upgrade.
.. no instruction; no tips/hints; no files
Ok, I am a recent m500 (HTC Magician) owner ..
Its a bog standard phone at the moment, I'd like to upgrade; BUT there are no files on this topic!!
Can anyone help?
WOOPS .. my mistake .. NOW I SEE THE INSTRUCTIONS

Hi, you will find plenty of files and instructions on this forum. Just do a search with "bigstorage" or simply take a look in the forum "Magician upgrade"

By the way, people are not too helpful, but I was able to find the information after a few hours search:
Just rename the file "HTCRuu.dll" to "Ruu.dll", and launch the "NoID" updater.

Thanks for that! And sorry for the comment, which is not at all directed to you, but more like a general impression as I keep coming accross dozens of unanswered quetions all around the forum. It shows actually that the forum is more for true techies, who in turn are not too keen on supporting newbies (with lots of exceptions of course) ;-)
OK the first post has been updated with the tools required for the update, as well as a direct link to the 1.13 ROM and Radio on the FTP.
As for the Radio Country ID error, I admit this is probably an oversight of mine. I initially used MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe with the radio on my Magician only to have it angrily spit out an error 150: incorrect device. Renaming the HTCRUU.dll to RUU.dll gave me the same error! I then ran the original MaUpgradeUt.exe and oddly enough it worked. After doing the same thing with my uncle's Magician, I concluded that the noID thing was not needed for the radio and hence I didn't mention it at all!
So really I don't know what to say about this other than if the country-ID upgrade fails, consult this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=30717
Maybe depending on which original rom. Mine was Orange.
That kinda makes sense I guess. As for the lack-of-replies thingy, I think that could be due to the fact:
1. No one knows the answer
2. Whoever asked the question skimped too much on details or doesn't punctuate their questions or spellcheck\grammarcheck them or... well you get my drift!
3. The question has already been solved, and\or its a question about something impossible. Forum search!
The most irritating thing is that 2. and 3. seem to almost always go hand-in-hand :lol:. Granted, I know that it is a bit tough to find the right solution to a problem, but remember that this is a forum, a developer's forum mostly, and an unmoderated one at that! All the information is there, but its everywhere, so be thankful for those willing to spend time to gather it up into something digestible!

Hi,
each time I heard about the NoID_MaUpgradeUt.exe, I read that you have to run it twice to make it work : the first time it gives the famous Country Error ID but the 2nd time it works... Hope this helps...

Heh yeah I heard that too, but I got away with not using NoID at all! In fact NoID was paining me with code 150 errors instead of the country ID 120 errors, but I hope with this suggestion and also the link above people will be able to figure out the problem.
And also, does having not so many posts on your guide a good thing or not? It could be good because almost no-one has a problem, or it could be bad because no-one uses it . Or I could just be placing too much of my self-esteem on the balance of a forum thread .

Actually, as long as you do not rename HTCRuu.dll to Ruu.dll, the .exe will not even start (because it searches for "Ruu.ddl and can't find it)
Now I got no idea whether there are many versions with different attributes or what.

Hi,
since I've had serious problems after installing o2 active crap, I needed to hard reset the magician.. but I decided this time to proceed with a bigstorage installation!! And the guide u provided is just great I've done bigstorage succesful, and now I have 26,72mb of total memory.. Anyway, is that normal that even if it's empty, it displays 1,12mb of memory in use?? Maybe I should format it.. :wink:

Android on HTC cruise How to?
Hi all,
I'm REALLY confused or misinfomed or whatever on how to run andoid from my sd card.
I tried some things from a website androidonhtc but only got up to a point.
Is there a simple how-to on how to run android on cruise and some links on where to donwload the appropriate files?
For example i have got the haret but i can't find anywhere to download androidinstaller.tar
Am I close or far from my goal?
I know i might ask a silly question but guys i'm really confused.
Thanks anyway in advance.
as for how-to in hxxp://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/androidhtc/wiki/HowToInstall
after getting haretinstall.zip, you need a current kernel (zImage) from
- dzo = hxxp://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D
or
- sourceforge = hxxp://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/
------------------------
as for androidinstall.tar / .tgz you can get from
- vogue forum = hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=588
- kaiser forum = hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=602
- sourceforge = hxxp://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/
PS: sorry for the hxxp link, I have no permission to post any link yet
Thank you very very very much for your help!
Congratulations mensa07. Although I already knew all this stuff from your link, it took me some time to figure them out because I did not know there was such a good guide for starters. Very usefull link. Thank you

well, it's no garbage, just required more explanation. let me try to make it simpler. this guide will use zImage-eclair and vaniljeclair, change it to suit your taste accordingly
- get haretinstall.zip from here
extract this file and get default-polaris.txt (rename as default.txt), zImage-eclair (rename as zImage), initrd.gz and haret.exe. put all these files into andboot folder in root of your sdcard. your sdcard will look like this:
/andboot/default.txt
/andboot/zImage
/andboot/initrd.gz
/andboot/haret.exe
- next you need to download vaniljeclair from here
extract the file and you will get androidinstall.tar, put this file along with those files on /andboot/
you should have those 5 files or you cannot boot android.
- select haret.exe to execute, press run, pay attention to the text rolling, when it asks you to hold button, hold volume button up, and you will be given installer menu. choose install and delete data. let the format and installer finish, then you will be given menu again. do not quit, just reset, and restart from haret (you will see that you have data.img, system.img and some other files). at this time let the installer do not interrupt, it took more than 5 minutes before android logo asks you to touch screen
- if there is problem during booting, post it here, let people here try to solve

BT and WIFI should work, there is vaniljeclair thread on this problem if something is not working.

Hi,
Thank you for the guide. I actually follow it and encountered an error. When it asked for volume up or d-pad center, I did, then it prompted that it was waiting for something several times. So I soft-reset the phone and launch it again.
Then, after haret.exe is booting linux, I have got a strange screen with scramble text.
How can I put everything back in the previous state to reinstall it propely?
Thank you
More info....
Did you get to the install screen after pressing centerdpad?
If yes, did it install?
What was it waiting for? The error message can give a clue what is wrong.
i manage to get to ask to hold up the center d-pad then get into a installer menu..
currently i just cant get my wifi and bt work..
haven get connection to sign in to google account..
I have all five file on my SD card but when I click on haret on my Sd and hit run where it say defaukt.txt..I get a error saying " cannot open script file \storage card\andboot\default.txt" is im doing something wrong..thx
u got change the polaris default-polaris to default??
So, after some months of searching, discussing and asking questions on the forum,
i managed to set up a working build for my Pola 100.
Then, i thought.. why not share it with everyone?
So here we go my friends, for all of you, who get lost after reading thousands of posts, worry no more!
What i used;
1)Radio Rom: 1.59.42.15 ==>www.rapidspread.com/file.jsp?id=gaskogesur
2)Android:Incubus26Jc_'s Super FroYo RLS16 All Languages + update ==> www.megaupload.com/?d=VFXIZ7R8
3)default.txt i made it using Atools (thanks liquid) ==> www.megaupload.com/?d=W2RMGMNS
4)initrd ==> www.megaupload.com/?d=HB9O3LXC
5)zImage ==> www.megaupload.com/?d=WCK5W28Q
6)installation file ==> www.megaupload.com/?d=5Q0UNDEV
7)Running mode: Haret ==> www.megaupload.com/?d=NY0SUTBH
Kernel version 2.6.32 Release Date 1-16-11
Initrd and zImage files where downloaded via Atools (Liquid you rock!) so they can be also found at Sourceforge just needs a bit more searching!
All links for the needed files are on this post.
Everything works for me, so i guess will work for you too!
Tested for about 2 months! (daily use)
Quick installation manual:
1) flash the radio rom to your phone (if you dont know how, quick search this forum)

Pola 100 NAND Mode
NAND MODE for POLA 100.
Android OS: Incubus26Jc_'s Super FroYo RLS16 All Languages+updates EVERYTHING WORKING
What you need:
1) Hardspl (Search at this forum)
2) Androidinstall www.megaupload.com/?d=3W2OPLGU
3) Androidupdate www.megaupload.com/?d=ZTUL41GA
4) installation file www.megaupload.com/?d=IPPL94CD
5) Image file www.megaupload.com/?d=H4C1TN3Q
6) Update www.megaupload.com/?d=OR6S26PF
7) Radio Rom www.rapidspread.com/file.jsp?id=gaskogesur
The image file was downladed via Atools from Sourceforge and modified with Atools to work on Polaris.
Kernel version 2.6.32 Release Date 1-16-11
None of these is my work, i just got them together for an easy access
For anyone who doesnt know, i need to remind you that NAND MODE erases all of your phone's
data!!!! And it shouldnt be attempted by anyone who doesnt know atleast how to get his phone
to the previous state. Any damage caused by your ignorance on the subject is not my fault!!!!
Now that we have clarified that lets move one to a simple guide through.
1) Install Hardspl.If you dont have it, you CANT proceed but i guess most of you have it already
2) Preferably format your SD card and then create a folder in it named: andboot
3) Put inside the folder all the files except of the Image file and the update file.
And cause i am sure someone will get confused here, inside the folder there should be:
androidinstall, androidupdate, install-seq.sh
4) copy on the root of your SD the image file.
5) Open your phone and enter the bootloader (hold down camera button and press soft reset until you see it),
follow the instructions and soft reset at the end!
6) Wait, wait, wait, eventually the android will boot.
7) The tricky part! This build needs an update in order to work properly, if you dont apply it
the phone will work fine until you install any programm, then it will crash and will need a fresh flash.
8) Power off your phone, put in the andboot folder (SD card) the update file (no6 on the list).
9) Open your phone, and hold volume up, this will get you to the boot menu. Choose update!
10) Voila!!! Have fun again!!!!
First, there is already a thread like this
Second, if you link zImage, nbh, atools or other things already present in sourceforge or massey server link to them.
Third write the kernel version, kernel release data
"6) Wait, wait, wait"
How long have to wait +/-?

If you see the booting image, wich is a green thingy spinning,
you have to wait about 5+/- mins.
If you dont get there, pm me the problem and i will try to solve it for you.
After i did the soft reset, appeared that screen and the stops.

1st) its too blurry to understand what it says
2nd) a wild guess, but do you have Pola100?
cause from what i can see, the penguin doesnt have the color he should have
Yes, its a Pola100. LOL
Try now: http://i56.tinypic.com/1y3ebt.jpg
Did you use the files i give on this thread, or yours?
I used your files.
With the l1q1d's tutorial happens the same thing.
The problem is probably from my Polaris.
Ok, check your messages, try that solution, if it doesnt work, send me a message!
thank you makousika
I successfully installed Android on my old TouchCruise

I am glad i could help my friend!

His guide is pretty easy to use. I myself didn't use it since I have been here before atools was even around but I have read it before. Now the fact that over 1000 people have used his guide and your the only person to complain about it is laughable. I mean really, are you going to flame the biggest (formerly now, he got an iphone) kernel developers just because you got offended? What you are going to do is make yourself get laughed at instead. I am a developer myself and I can say that if I was l1q1d I sure as hell wouldn't bother helping you anymore after that.
Just saying that you really should watch what you say and to who.

just saying that you really should read the topics before answering:
I confess I'm a jerk ... so?
SO:
you, aceoyame, are too clever (more than l1q1d, for sure) to read carefully a jerk's topic!

The clever man doesn't flame.

Well I am clever enough to use proper English. Also, I laughed at L1q1d's comment when I read it. Like I said, you are the only one that got offended and actually even bothered to complain about it. Therefore my comments still stand.
Please my friends, lets keep the thread clean.

Are you sure that EVERYTHING IS WORKING !!!?? IS THE CAMERA OF YOUR PHONE WORKS????? There is a separate thread about this problem and as far as i know l1q1d doesn't have a solution about working camera with any android build installed on NAND!!!!!
Also you did not specify which Radio ROM version did you use for this FULLY WORKING INSTALLATION!!!???
Camera is not working since no developer has managed to get it to work on NAND.
I dont think its difficult to understand that.
Radio rom is 1.59.42.15 , if you click on the link i provide, you will see it by yourself.
