Made a huge error.....didnt go through forums and read instructions before trying to Flash a German T-Mobile MDA Compact to a English ROM....
The device is completely dead....
Followed all the steps required to get it back up...It is refusing to do so though....
Used this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=19500
One thing to note is that I am not using the AC charger, am using the USB cable to charge the phone.
Can someone please helpme...
Haven't got past the bootloader mode...
If you followed the instructions from the other thread, it should have started flashing.
Some things to check on:
1) Did you do a full d2s before you attempted the upgrade? It's always good to have something to fall back on.
2) If you can get to a bootloader screen, all is definitely not lost.
3) Sometimes, it takes 4 or 5 minutes for the "Press to flash" comes up on the screen so be patient with that.
4) Make sure you did exactly a 416 byte copy from the original rom file in to the new flash file.
5) You can only write an nb1 file from the pc AFTER it has been created from the pocket pc. If the SD card has been pc formatted, the nb1 file will write to it but the pocket pc won't recognize it and will just sit there at the bootloader screen.
HTH
I think I fired the MDA
Well I did not create the nbf file from the ppc, downloaded it from the the forum FTP. I do not have the backup of the nbf file. As I mentioned I did not read the forums before trying the update.
I just downloaded the T-Mobile ROM update and tried installing it. Obivousioly it didn't work, Game the dreaded the 112 error in the 3rd step.
Am not even getting the bootlader screen now..
Any ideas on how I can get this device up and running.?...
ok, need some clarification here. "What" are you trying to load (nbf files or nb1 files) and how are you trying to load them (SD flash or the standard USB based upgrade)?
Easy enough to check to see if your device can still get to bootload mode....hold the camera and power switches in at the same time and hit soft reset with your stylus. After letting go of those and you see either "Serial" or "USB" at the top of the screen, you should still be able to recover from this.
Tried with the nb1 files not nbf (sorry abt teh error)..
The bootloader screen was showing up ...unitll I tried the T-Mobile MDAcompact_vers11201
After the 112 error while updating...the device now refusing to get to the bootloader mode.
Have I fried the device and made it unusable....?
hey just got back the bootloader screen...
Take the SD card out, disconnect the USB and tell me what happens when you hold the power and camera buttons in at the same time, then hit the soft reset.
Also, has the unit been charged recently?
Its showing Serial v1.00...after the reset.
Its been on the USB chatge all along.....
Great. If you get Serial at the top, this can be recovered.
If you want a good T-Mobile 1.12 rom file, go here and use this one:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Magician/tmobile-uk_wwe_ROM_1.12.00(thereapermanl).rar
Unpack it and follow all the procedures about copying the 416 bytes, rewriting the file, etc. from the other thread. I have tested this rom file and it installs ok.
Thanks for the encouraging words...
Will it work even if I do not have a backup of the original ROM on my machine?....I only have the tmobile.nb1 file which I got from the XDA forums.
Lemme try using that and editing it.
Thanks a ton for your help.
You might be a little stuck for an nb1 flash if you don't have an original flash back up but don't fear. You can go here and get this WWE1.12 file and just do a USB type upgrade:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Magician/Shipped_ROMS/WWE_11200_128_11210_ship.exe
I know this one works too. It's ROM 1.12, Radio 1.12 and Ext_ROM 1.12. When you try to run the upgrade program though, it might give you a Country ID error. If so, use the attached upgrade program instead. If this one gives you a Country ID error again, close the program and just run it again. I've been down all these roads already.
Lemme get this right this time: I will be doing the following
1. Install the ROM as you have mentioned. With the country id hack if necessary
2. Hopefully by now the device would be alive. If so will take a backup of the ROM on the SD card
3. From then on follow the instruction given in the doc.
Hope I get it righ this time else Its going to be a long night for me.
Lemme know if I have to do anything else.
Either ROM will work fine for you. It just depends on whether or not you want I-Mate stuff on it or T-Mobile stuff on it.
Doing the USB upgrade will put the I-Mate ROM on but after that, it should be working and you can then do an SD backup, follow the SD flashing procedures and get the T-Mobile ROM on.
Good Luck!
The masupgrateut is throwing up a ruu.dll error?...you seen that one before?
What sort of error? Not found?
yup...
I extracted the ROM exe and found teh file...copied it to the windows folder..and ran the no id program...no error this time round but the update is still giving a COuntry ID error...
Been looking at various posts...specially this one...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=14973
Thinks thats gonna help?
ok...two things.....just run it again. The no ID program sometimes does that on the first time 'round so just run it again.
Second, stick this at the end of the RUU.conf file:
[CHECKCEID_TYPE]=1
ran the program multiple times...still getting the COuntry ID error...
Are you running this program? MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
...with the change in the RUU.conf file?
I just noticed something....did you extract all the files to a single directory and just run it from there or did you just pull a few out?
ALL the files have to be in the same directory. This is also where you need to execute the installer program.
Hi, very new on here and very new to the Pocket PC and Imate JAM. I have read allot about backing up ROM and process to get big storage hack but almost everything I read is way over my head. Like what is the extended ROM?? Ssooooo, can someone take all of the latest TIPS and show me the BEST and EASIEST way to upgrading my Imate JAM??? I still have the original ROM but would like to upgrade to the newest 1.12 ROM and 1.12 Radio ROM. I then would like to know how to keep some Imate specific programs installed like Intellitype.(I dont use MMS) PLEASE!!! I will even paypal someone some money for providing this BASIC elementary school level BIG STORAGE upgrade. Please dont assume anything about my level of knowledge as it is VERY basic. Thanks in advance for taking on this challenge. By the way, in the end I would want the latest Imate JAM WWE ROM and Radio in English.(I live in United States and use T-mobile on the 1900mhz band)
bump bump bump
Ok... I think you won't get many replies, because what you are looking for has already been posted here many times. The big problem is that the info could indeed be burried inside very huge threads, so it will take a lot of reading to find it. But I'll try to summarize...
You will need to download the latest ROM for your Magician. Most likely you will want to stay with the ROM specifically designed for your device, for example from I-Mate. That way at least you can perform the ROM upgrade without any fuzz.
Log on to I-mate (or whatever) and download the latest ROM. Reboot both the PC and the Magician and execute the installer. After about 20 minutes, you are done.
You'll want to have access the Extended ROM, where all the standard settings and programs are stored. To do that, you will have to copy Extended ROM to a safe place, because when you have done the Big Storage thing, Extended ROM is gone, and so are these files. In order to get to the Extended ROM, you'll have to:
Hard reset the device after the ROM upgrade, as you are told on screen when the upgrade is finished. This means pushing the power button, while using the stylus on the reset button, located at the bottom of the device. The Magician resets and the setup routine begins. You are asked to perform calibration of the screen and time zone, before the OS is ready to run. Then, a few seconds after you see the Today screen, a 3 seconds countdown appears. At this exact moment you must perform a reset, which simply means pushing the button with the stylus again, this time without using the power button. Now the device will restart without installing files from Extended ROM, and more importantly, without hiding the Extended ROM.
Connect the Magician to the PC using ActiveSync and copy the folder Extended_ROM, located at root, to your SD card and make a backup on your PC. You are now technically ready to take on Big Storage...
But! Beware that If your skills are at the level you suggest, you may end up killing your Magician, instead of gaining Big Storage. This has happened to a lot of people, who then had to struggle their way into getting their device functioning again. Be absolutely sure that you are willing to take the risk, because you may end up cursing yourself for doing this.
Still happy going on? Ok... What's coming next is my edit of other peoples work, so I don't take any credit for it. Unfortunately I don't remember who wrote it either...
You will need to download and install the 'Backup Tools1' found on the FTP part of this forum, to perform the following steps. ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Tools/
Backing up your current ROM:
Make sure you backup your ROM for 2 reasons. Firstly, because you will need to edit part of your ROM in order to be able to flash your Magician with the no extended ROM, and secondly, because you might need it either for flashing your phone in case of a malfunction so you can send it back under warranty with the original ROM, or for helping you to flash future upgrades.
Backing up your ROM can be done by connecting your Magician to the PC through the data cable when you first uncheck the USB connection of active sync.
If your Magician connects with ActiveSync because you didn't uncheck the USB connection in the active sync connection settings then you will not be able to backup your ROM to an SD memory card.
1. Before connecting your Magician you should bring it into the boot loader mode. This can be done by simultaneously pressing power + camera buttons and at the same time the soft reset button with the stylus.
2. After connecting your Magician to the PC through the USB in boot loader mode and having your SD card inserted into the Magician, you run romupdate.exe.
3. Then choose the USB connection in the connection settings of romupdate.exe window and click on ok. After that a terminal window will popup in that window.
4. Type d2s and press enter. Your Magician will start copying the ROM to the sd card. The screen of your Magician will be dark (no light), but you will see it counting up to 100%. When it reaches 100% it will say it is calculating the checksum. Give it some time till its done and it will say checksum ok.
5. After finishing the transfer of your ROM from your Magician to the SD card, put your SD card into an SD card reader connected to your pc. Your pc might pop up a warning message that says your SD Card is not formatted would you like to format? Click No and open a Command prompt (DOS) window.
6. Change directory to your root directory (cd c:\) and run the command ntrw read your_rom.nb1 x: where x is the drive letter of your sd card. That command will create the ROM Backup file of your ROM into your C drive root directory by the name of your_rom.nb1. Make sure you keep your_rom.nb1 in a safe place and use a copy of that file for the rest of the procedure. Note that after finishing the copy from your SD card to your_rom.nb1 file ntrw might give you an error, just don’t pay attention to it.
Patching you ROM:
1. Use Hex Editor to open the your_rom.nb1 file on your PC
2. Use the FIND function to locate "02 00 00 80 00 20 20 00 00" and change it to "02 00 00 b8 01 20 20 00 00". Note that this is a hex search, not ascii, so enter the search as 'Bytes'. You will find this pattern twice inside your ROM, and both should be changed.
Transferring your no extended ROM File from your hard disk to the sd card:
1. Get the fixed no extended ROM file to your C drive root directory run the command ntrw write fixed.nb1 x: in the command prompt window where fixed.nb1 is the filename of your fixed ROM and x the SD card drive letter. Wait till it finishes and move to the final step.
Flashing the Fixed no extended ROM to your Magician:
1. Put your SD card into your Magician and get your Magician to boot loader mode again (power+camera+reset buttons). On your unlighted screen you will see it says serial wait and after some seconds it will say (Press Power to flash).
2. Do as it says and it will start flashing. When your Magician reaches 100% flashing, it will check the checksum. Don't worry about the message Checksum failed - Flashing failed and soft reset your Magician. Please notice that the first boot may take something like 5 minutes, so don't worry about it.
When your device reboots, you now have a Big Storage Magician! If you need parts of the Extended ROM installed, like fax, MMS or whatever, you can simply click on the files inside the Extended_ROM folder you backed up earlier and they will install.
My guess is that by now you will have realized that there IS no easy way to get the Big Storage. Even though it sounds harder than it is, it does take some time and care to perform right.
There are other ways to do Big Storage, but this is the clean way. You don't have to rely on patchers, and you won't have your boot screen turned into something that another user think looks cool. This is the real deal with only 4 bytes getting changed, and you know for sure you'll have the right Extended ROM available as a backup, and that is as good as it gets!
WOW!! This is excellent and very well done. I am glad to be learning so much about these ROM's. Two questions before I tackle this(I know Im such a newbie)
Give me a couple days and I will report back on my progress.
Magician Extended Rom Unlocker Works!!!
Wow major thanks & god bless -- exactly follow your simple directions (add final reboot blue imate screen takes awhile) and wow - its done - now to change my pants....
After a few hours of struggling I finally got it working!!
Thanks HBK
:shock: wow...am imperessed...thanx HBK..
It's not a matter of not knowing how to make big storage (i've already did it a couple of times :wink: ),but the issue here is that u wrote a "manual"!!!!
thanx bro...hell am gonna copy every word u said and add it to my archive under "HBK big storage manual"... :wink:
Thanx again for ur time!!!!!

Hi all,
Another newbie here, just wanted to checked before I tried this upgrade, but will this work on my XDA II mini?
Im soooo sick of having no memory, so I hope it is!
Deva
hey just a quick question thatnls a lot for the write up
what size sd card do you have to use
i used a 256 (only have that or a 1gig one) and the boot loader comes up with a message rom size too small

I tried using my 1 gig card and the hex editor wouldn't open it as it was too large (The rom will be the same size as your card). I then found the patch to automatically apply the big storage and it worked a treat. I don't have a 256 but I heard a fair few people use it for their upgrades....
HBK is the king. He's danish
good going babyy.. *thumbs up*..
i cant wait to reach home and try the procedure...
after waiting for so long, i finally got home, and sat down to install bigstorage by my new 256 mb card... but the problem isnt solved... why does it say 'card initialize is fail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'.. maaan im soo fuked..

SD 128MB
It was almost the same with me? some errors with my SD 512 Kingston (back up done well, asking push the power, but after romupdate & ntrw nothing happen ), after the card died, was finding another one about friends. It was 128 mb Trancend good one. I did it with my 12.128.12 on MDA-Compact? then upgraded radio till 13 about month ago!
when i try to copy my modifiedrom.nb1 to the SDcard through ntrw... it says... 'the semaphore timeout period has expired'... wot does it mean?.. had it not copied rom to the sd card?... or shud i just ignore it.??.. reply as soon as possible..
Just wanted to know can this method of changing the hex code work on all the ROMs, like even ones that may be released in the future?? Or does the Hex code change for ech ROM version??
And what actually are you doing when you change 02 00 00 80 00 20 20 00 00 to 02 00 00 b8 01 20 20 00 00??

Will this work for the imate JasJar?
Sorry, to ask such a basic question, but this is all very new to me. I've been reading the site for the past week or so trying to get a handle on all the information. I definately want to remove the EXT_ROM from my JasJar to free up as much memory as possible. Will the procedure listed above (HUGE Thanks to HBK) work for my iMate JasJar? Thanks.
P.S. I do realize that this is a "JAM" thread, sorry for the overlap. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what is meant by "cooking" (which I'm guessing means "modifying"). Any help is definately appreciated.
card initialize is fail!!!
Hi guys, i also got the same prob with Castiwo ..card initialize is fail!!! i used SD 128MB Sandisk.. how to work it out? many tks
I've got a question. I understand that if you did the BigStorage patch, and then you restored from a backup when you didn't have the BigStorage patch, you'd have only wasted your time getting the BigStorage as everything would be over-written.
So here's my question. Does it work the other way around? I mean, if for example you had a backup (from Sprite, xBackup, or whatever else software) from where you had a BigStorage patch, then you restore from that backup onto a Magician with the original, unpatched ROM, would it work?
Hi,
I'm sorry about this post but there seems to be an anormous amount of information which doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
All I want to do is upgrade my palm treo 750 from win5.0 to 6.1.
I've downloaded the rom but it doesn't upgarade. So I need to figure out a way to flash this phone so it can be upgraded to any roms.
I have tried the Cheetahunlocker which doens't work. It gets stuck on 0% then times out.
Could someone please give me some basic instructions on the best way to do this on the treo.
I've done this on the TYTN2 whith no issues however on this phone, it seems to be a lot harder.
Thanks in advance.
Your device needs to be unlocked. You can do this by calling ATT and getting unlock code or by using Magic_Unlocker.
search
Also you will need to have the HardSPL installed which is Step 1 only of the CheetahUnlocker
I just did it yesterday so I know it works.
After you get the phone unlocked, name the ROM .nbh file CHEEIMG.nbh and then put it on the SD card
The start the CheetahUnlocker process as it enters the HardSPL process it will go ahead and run the CHEEIMG file and flash your ROM
(it works ! ) DON"T CHANGE THE RADIO !!!!
After doing that be sure and reclaim your ROM space - search web for Removing Ext ROM and do that process, hard reset and you are ready to go
Takes about 15 min!

Thanks for your info.
sigh..
The rom is an exe file...
I downloaded 7-zip, extracted the rom to a folder.
Looking through it, I am unable find the ROM.nbh file!
CHEEMING.nbh is already there..
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Sorry I forgot it was already named CHEEIMG.nbh -- just use it like I said above.
Copy it to the SD card, put the SD card in the device and after you have used Magic_Unlocker , connect via Active Sync and start the CheetahUnlocker process. This will start the three step CheetahUnlock process (really all you need is step one which will put the HardSPL in place) as that process fails the CHEEIMG file on your SD card will get flashed.
Hope this makes sense
Bottom line is that you will be doing an SD flash of the CHEEIMG.nbh file but it takes HardSPL for that to work. Step one of the CheetahUnlocker installs HardSPL (that will be all you need of that process)
remember!
THE SD FLASHING METHOD TAKES A REALLY LONG TIME. SO LONG YOU MIGHT THINK IT'S BROKEN. BUT IT'S NOT!!!!
caps with bold and red= great way to emphasize an important point.
Thanks for the info but I'm still running into trouble.
I copied the file to the SDcard but when running the cheetahunlocker, it give the same error at 0% ( error 206) something about the connection..
I notice that active sync turns off when the cheetah unlocker goes to the coloured screen.
Edit:
Also, should I be moving the CHEEIMG.nbh or just copying it to the SD card?
Thanks.

Did you run the MagicUnlocker first?
Is the CHEEIMG.nbh file in the root of your SD card? Try re-formatiing your SD card (FAT32 important!) and then putting the CHEEIMG.nbh file in place on the root of the SD card.
After starting the CheetahUnlocker the TriColor screen should come on and then it should go to a standard White boot scan. It will ask if you want to flash and you will be asked to confirm by pushing the Power button.
If you can ever get Step One to complete on teh Cheetah Unlocker you should be able to confirm that the HardSPL is installed by turing off Today screen (Red, end button) , then hold the left side button while then pushing the reset button. You will get a tricolor screen that lists your SPL version. If it is HardSPL on an unlocked device and there is a CHEEIMG.nbh file on an inserted SD card it will then automatically go to a White boot screen .....
If any of this sounds foreign to you then you need to familiarize yourself in the Wiki re SD flashing
PS do you have the NetFramework 2.0 installed on your PC? When you start the CheetahUnlocker are you getting the Treo device confirmation to install the 2 boot exe files that let the Treo go to the boot screen (you have to answer yes to both of these) - are you making it that far?
Yes I ran the unlocker which worked fine.
I formatted the SD card, copied the CHEEMING.NBH to it so it's the only file there.
No I run the CheetahUnlocker.exe , yes to disclaimer , then STEP 1 - I click FLASH SPL, then next, next etc.. I hit Update - next - next then the phone msg comes up asking if I want to run jumpSPL.exe - I hit yes and it goes to the tri colour screen, the active sync dissapears, the screen on the pc stays at 0% and then I get the error 260: Connection, check cable etc..
How is it suppoed to maintain a connection when Active sync turns off?
I did check and framework2.0 is present.
Thanks.

I'm not sure exactly what is happening in your case but I do know that once a device of any kind enters the bootloader - Active Sync dies - AS is part of the OS and that no longer exists after the bootloader starts, I.e. Windows Mobile isn't really running any longer. the AS connection just gets it started.
I'm not too sure either.
I've unlocked the phone which worked fine.
When I run the cheetahunlocker, it doensn't get past the first step.
Should I be running Hardspl first?
What rom works best with the Treo 750? Link please!!!
What rom are you wanting to use? I have Treo750_WM6.1_WWE_Lite, looking for a more stable rom. Please list some or link them.
I tried both roms
the lite one and the normal one. I must say that the normal one is more stable - with the lite I had to do a reset at least one per day. with the normal version I did not do a reset at all...
Hi, did you resolve this CONNECTION issue? I'm having exactly the same problem.
Anyone?
hey everyone... i have a problem similar to these i think. I'll explain
i've done the magic_unlocker and i can do the 1st step of the cheetahunlocker. treo reset automatically and when i try to flash the rom the trilinear screen doesn't change to the blue screen which is the screen of the rom flash
anybody now why?
i have cracked my head the hole day and a still can't do it :S

If it goes into the bootloader then you should be good to go. Both 750s i unlocked did this. However, if done correctly, the phone should go to a light blue screen where you will press the power button and flashing should begin.

Are you doing the SD method or Desktop? DO the SD method and it should begin flashing right away after the 1st step of cheetahunlocker.
Everything runs fine in the setup procedure,gets all the way to where you load but then gets like 2 or 3 progress bars and errors out with the invalid file size,check update utility,Also the utility does not display the current file version only the one that is being attempted to be loaded. IPL is 4.10.0002 and SPL is 4.10.0000 Running XP,Cable is fine,Battery is charged fully,done this several times,trying to load Just Stable V2 Build 5.Thanks in Advance,Vegas
Flash via SD card
Is there another loader program besides the "my first rom" one I tried to use?
No, not unless you HardSPL your device, which I recommend you do anyways, that way you can flash any ROM with no problems what-so-ever. You can flash via an SD card, but it has to be an LZX compressed ROM, and not all of them are as such.
I remember flashing a phone last year and it did the same thing I am going through now, I found a different flasher I thing from the Manufacturer,it went to the same prog in the end of the process that "My First Rom" goes to,with the exception of it would run to complettion and the other one would not. So If we do the Hard SPL then do we load from the Tri Colored Boot Screen? Thanks,Vegas
1. This has been discussed MANY times. (In ALL of my ROM threads, it has been discussed about 20 times EACH.) If you search, you will find the answer.
2. This thread is really meant for people who are creating ROMs.
3. We have a flashing walkthrough. In fact, we have a few of them. I even wrote a few of them myself.
4. Flashing through the PC has a file size requirement of 50 mb's. Any smaller ROM has to be flashed through the SD card and ONLY on HardSPL'd phones.
The HardSPL will allow you to flash from the tri colored screen and even from the SD itself.

My job, I had to return 6.5 to 6.1 sees. I tried to go back a lot of things but I think the name of the error RUU_signed.nbh file with the name change CHEEIMG.nbh want to install after the following issue has occurred.
How do I do if I've stayed if the bootloader. Now red, green, blue and white colors on the screen there. When a screen comes up gray. when I press the camera, restart button does bootloder screen.

USB and PC hardware in the device is visible. Can not connect to the bootloader in the Active SYNC.
I researched the Internet to the device I need to take the original rom. A lot like the original Treo750_Cingular_ROM called Treo750_2.23_ROW_WM6 ROM file I tried did not take. As enhancements on a PC via USB, but does not do installation DesktopUpdater. I tried with SD card, makes installation , BOOT Ok GSM gives OK, but gives FAİL Errors on OS install. At the end of the installation gives the error bar. I'm normal with FAT32 formatted SD was snow. SD card would install the original file 1.16RWE_CHEEIMG.nbh. camera, I would hold the restart button. to install the device, while 1% is automatically rebooted. I also want to install the self-RADIO reboot is 7%.
As far as I understand with; device when large files at 1% at small-sized files when closing at 7% has been reopened
devicereset, Hard-SPL, Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD, Original 1.16RWE.nbh, Treo750_2_23_ROW_DE_DesktopUpdater, completefixed, I tried almost everything, but the installation does not do..
I need this device too. I am electronics technician. Heard called JTAG recovery method.
Luckily the apology, that I am open for any ideas. but you'll help me. Tek Tek at a descriptive writer, you'll be happy. I trust you. As of this minute to thank every one, wish to express my respect and greetings
Based on your bootloader screen you have not successfully HardSPL'd your Treo. You need to do that first, and then flashing ROMs with the SD card is possible. You can't flash a ROM using the SD card without doing this.
You also can't downgrade a ROM using the regular installation packages because the install package will see the current ROM (if I understand you correctly, WM6.5) is a newer ROM than what you are trying to install. I think I remember seeing a post someplace where you can edit one of the files in the installer package to get it to work, but you would have to search to find it and even so, it's probably much more difficult to do than just doing the Hard SPL.
