Hi,
i have some problems with the radio update for magician.
my device is a vpa compact, i can flash this with all shippes roms but if i want to upgrade the radio stack, i become the error msg 100 - model id error. i have tried it with MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe but than, the update does not start and my vpc compact hang into the bootloader.
have somebody an solution for this probelm?
thx
yep,
leave your machine in bootloader modus, unplug usb, replug usb, start upgraderoutine again and everything should be fine. eslewise do the same procedure with maupgradeUTNOID from ftp.
good luck
Thx it works
you are welcome!
thx again, but its a little stupid.
first time i have tried it with the solution for error 120.
it likes your solution. i dont know why it work now :s
i have start the vpa compact in bootloader and without problems or error msg´s the upgrade started.
few days ago i have modified the ext_rom to big storage, perhaps that is because of it.

Hi all,
yesterday, i thought it's a nice day to do the official german t-mobile 1.12 upgrade on my official german t-mobile mdac. It wasn't.
After the upgrade (no errors) the bootscreen shows:
no gsm, and only one Version number: 1.12.01 Ger
on the bottom line.
After it bootet, i get no gsm and no bluetooth working. When i connect by usb, active sync hangs for about 3-5 minutes. If i try to repeat the upgrade, i get something like wrong device, and it shows empty fields on the version screen. I tried to do the update by extracting the official update rar and start the update by MaUpgradeUT_noID.exe, but it says something like wrong device.
I tried this to the same with the 1.13 upgrade from the xda ftp, same thing. I tried a rombackup from sd-card that i found somewhere on the net, but the bootloader says wrong section=1 not allowed.
Is there anybody wo could help me to resurrect my poor little mdac?
Thanks alot,
J
Hi J.
Don't know how to solve all your problems with upgrading, but did you copy the first bytes of your own romdump to the downloaded rom? Otherwise your device won't accept it, you can find a lott about this in other threads. try searching for BigStorage and you will everything about rom upgrades.
Good luck, M
Upgrade your device with the imate rom 1.12 wwe using MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe ,it should work ,then try to upgrade to the german rom upgrade.
Good luck
ongoing revival
Ok, i tried that big storage thing, i replaced the id in the new image from my backup (broken) rom, and when trying to upgrade from sd-card, i get Section = 1 not allowed update.
I'm trying to upgrade the radio stack from the bootloader screen with MaUpgradeUT.exe, but it seems that the usb port doesn't work: for 10 minutes, the update screen stands at 0%, then an error appears:
Radio Rom Update Error.. i should reset, reconnect and retry.
Any more ideas? Is there a possiblity to do the normal "online" update (not via bootlaoder/backup-image) just from sdcard?
Please Help
J,
Last night I did a BigStorage in a very easy way. I followed the description in the thread about upgrading to radio 1.13. You'll have to unzip the shipped rom, decode nk.nbf it with dnbf. Then you replace the usual bit pattern and encode nk.nb1 again. After that you can use maupgrade with or without the noid function like a regular apgrade.
Hope it helps you, M
Hey guys,
I tried the WWE-ROM with BigStorage now, but I just want to go back to the original TMO Germany ROM, cuz I don't have big advantages of it but I lose my warranty...
Now my Problem:
Upgrading to WWE was just easy as described in the Procedure.doc on the ftp. But what do I have to do to get the original ROM back?
I saved it as a German.nb1. D I have to use ntrw write German.nb1 h: ? (h: is my sd-card-slot)
That way it doesnt work, the Bootloader doesnt even recognize the ROM. When I backup my WWE-ROM to the SD-card and the use that ntrw command from above, the ROM is recognized, but after having updated it, I can't bot anymore.
Hope anybody can help

Shipped rom?
Hi Stefan,
Seems like there's something wrong with your original rom-dump. Had it myself & it's a pain in the ***. Why not download the original German TMO shipped-rom & try it with the normal usb upgrade method?
Since your magician won't boot the software will probably tell you're upgrading from version blank, but that's no problem it will work. just put it into bootloader, connect usb & start the update program.
Success, M
seems to work, I'm just upgrading it, just had to put it in bootloader-mode again and start the update-utility from t-mobile.de...
will report if it really worked later on
Hi! you would do me a great favour by putting the rom on the ftp! i would really need it!
Please!
are you from germany or from austria?
greets
I don't need to upload it, its not even the most recent version (my original ROM was never, but I didn't find the original from TMO in a newer version :-( )
Just download it from t-mobile.de, I'm from Germany anyway...
greetz Stefan
This is my first message here. I have read many times the forum and downloaded files, but I have a problem I cannot solve.
I bought a T-mobile Mda Compact (UK - WWE)
The first thing I did was to unlock the device, to see if it worked.
Then I tried to upgrade SW. After many attempts I succeded in upgrading ROM to ITA Imate 1.12.04, but couldn't upgrade Radio. In fact the upgrade had been possible only when I took off the radio file when upgrading.
now I want to upgrade to the radio 1.12, but my attempts were unsuccesful. Tried with original Maupgrade, with the cracked one, with the NOid version,....
Please help me. Thanks.
Sometimes it just won't go, do you have warranty left? Cause it's a failure which shouldn't be.
M
no warranty left.
MAupgrade files are all the same or are different for each product id?
how would you act if you were me?
If I were you? Well I'm very lucky I got a two year warranty, 1.4 year left .
But I would keep on trying via shipped-rom, all magician radios are suitable, & via SD-flash. Cause a trip to repair centre mostly isn't cheap. I know I've said it before: sometimes it just won't work & it needs to repaired by a repair centre :-(
Regards, M
BTW most instructions can be found in the wiki
yesterday night I tried again...
what I am sure of is that when I start MAupgrade the device goes in bootloader mode and so remains.... until I re-install the whole rom (radio excluded)...
I am wondering to leave things as they are... are there great differences between Radio 1.01 and 1.12 ?
thanks
I prefer radio 1.12, better reception & no trouble with reconnecting GPRS anymore.
But if you can't get it to upgrade ...
The story: Received an new O2 XDA NEO from Germany. Being portuguese I don't know nothing of german idiom. I dowloded the JAMIN Eng. rom from the FTP and tryed to unstall this rom. With the ROMUpadte utility that comes with the ROM I get an error. With the ROM Update Utility_NOID the process stars and go normally until 95%. Here, after some minutes give me an error saying I can't upagrade with the NBF file.
I was a little passed out thinking that instead a phone I had a brick. Pul out the batery for moments. After I turned on the phone and it shows the tri color scren of bootloader. Ok conect the usb cable again and start the upgrade to the RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID. and voila... the process completed without problems.
The weird thing is why my phone doesn't accept the JAMIN rom?
Anyone has an expplanation for that? Thank you
can you tell me wehere i can download a jamin rom ? then i can test it with my o2 xda neo
I upgraded my Neo to jamin rom without a problem. I was using the RomUpdateUtility by machinagod, which you can find in this forum. But now I have switched to RUU_2151327..._DOP_ASIA_WWE too. To me, the new version DOP_ASIA_WWE rom works much better than that jamin. More fast, more effective. The JAMIN always runs out memories and makes the CE-Star chinese input inactive, especially when WiFi used. The DOP_ASIA rom rarely meets such problem.
Upgrade rom
You can only upgrade rom but can not downgrade. So now you are at 2.15
but Jamin is at 2.13.
Hi,
upgraded qtek s200 with RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship.exe, using ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip, which does not check Vendor ID.
No major issues so far. During boot dispays Dopod instead of QTEK .
Besides, few differences I found in voice diler and new program called AutoConfig. Appears, to configure automatic settings for your GSM carrier, but only for ASIAN operators, which is useless to me. No worries, interface still English.
It was mentioned few times in this forum, that you may experience some "delays" during flashing your device - don't panic, don't touch it, just wait for some time, it will finish on its own.
Good luck with upgrades.

I want to upgrade my good old Magician from ROM 2.03 TX WWE to the new Windows Mobile 6.1. But it doesn´t work. Tried also to downgrade to 1.13 ROM (with no extended ROM) but had no success. Has anybody any idea what can i do to get 6.1 to work on the Magician? That would be great !!!
Thanks for your interest and i hope someone has a solution for me!

I have the same Problem. But it's not just that I can't upgrade to 6.1... I can't do anything. I tried to get different Roms on my Magician. The original Rom too...but nothing works. All that since I tried the 2.03TX Rom... The 2.03TX is working nice at the moment but I would prefer the original one or WM6.1 Please help!!!
I had no problem switching between tx and 6.1 - both directions.
The only thing I had to be aware of is the radio version. 2.03tx doesn't install it's own radio and last cotulla rom requires radio 1.12.
my O2 mini can't upgrade any WM6.1 ROM. It's 64MB RAM and 64MB flash.

Check following 3 points:
1. Make sure your device is a "Magician"
2. Make sure the downloaded ROM is one of Cotullas WM6.1 (O1 , O2 or O3)
3. Befor flashing make sure the Radio on the Magician is version 1.12
Yes, it is a Magician, the ROM is Cotulla´s 6.1 Beta 7 (03), and my Radio is 1.12. But my PC says no USB! A problem with Vista, perhaps?
Flashing the Magician on a Vista PC does not work, this is a very old stuff.
Use a PC with XP-Pro and everything will be fine.

Maybe you have a problem with your PC, maybe you are doing wrong, or maybe your Magician is corrupted.
I don't know much about the bootloader, guess it is on his own chip and not changeable at this time, otherwhise it could be a part of the rom but i have never seen a Magician bootloader-file for itselfs.
