Hi!
It's the first time I'm posting here, but after some days of search, I've found a lot about upgrading / downgrading, but nothing about my problem.
I've an MDAcompact / T-Mobile PM10A / Austria and tried to upgrade to BigStorage-Rom according this thread: " Magician to 1.13 + 1.13 Radio + BigStorage ALL-IN-ONE Guide ". I've backed up my original Rom, but after the flash, there was no radio-stack at all (booting device: "no GSM" on display).
I've tried to update the radio-stack again - error message: 114 - error upgrading radio-stack, the same with 1.12 and 1.13. I've tried to downgrade the rom to 1.12 - ok, but no radio-stack. I've tried to restore the original Rom via SD-card in bootloader-mode - device says: not allowed.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!
did u try to use an origional rom? i mean a non Bigstorage rom upgrade ? because that should fix the problem ( atleast i think it shoud)
Try Downloading the origional t-mobile1.13 rom and upgrade ur device using that install file . If i am not mistaken the first thing that is upgraded is ur radio stack then the extended rom and finally the operating sytem ( if u upgraded u would see that it does it in 3 steps).
I've tried that. As soon, as I upgraded to the original rom from T-Mobile, it stopped at the radiostack-upgrade. After that, I opened the "original".exe-file from T-Mobile with winrar and tried to upgrade again, but without the "radio.nbf"-file, what was no problem. After that, I tried to update with the "radio.nbf"-file (stand alone) again, but the "error 114"-statement came up again.
I got this error before, but only because I flashed my device with the wrong ROM.
(...I once misread "Universal" as a meaning and not as a device codename, and flashed the wrong Radio stack. Thing worked, but radio invalid, no phone capabilities. Fortunately, a reflash with the correct radio ROM found here saved me. And my $300 investment. -.-)
Either the radio part of the ROM's accidentially corrupted (download again), or the radio driver is incompatible with your device hardware. I'm not aware of Minis being avaliable in anything other than GSM tho...
I downloaded the original rom-version from the official T-Mobile website. Fact was: up/downgrade of the rom itself "ms_.nbf/nk.nbf" no problem (I've extracted the exe-file via winrar to a folder and made that several times to up/downgrade), but update of the radio-stack "radio_.nbf" not possible, ended in error 114. The point is: as soon as I start the update-utility, it shows the "Device CE Image version", "Device Extended Image Version" but no "Device Radio Image Version", it looks like no radio-stack is installed at all.
I got that exact same error through the aforementioned Universal ROM debacle (-.-). Radio failed to flash, no radio at all.
There should be a standalone radio stack somewhere in the FTP for magician. I know I saved mine with the 1.12.00 version. Try flashing with that, there's a file inside that allows you to bypass the version detection IIRC (which allows a from-scratch flash). Flashing a standalone radio stack will hard reset your system, but otherwise will not touch anything else.

I bough my MDAc some days ago and the first I read was the bad accoustic ... but some Google searches told me that there´ll be a firmware update from T-Mobile with the Cebit2005 also having a link for the download section. Cause there was nothing to download I decided to use the firmware beeing offered here. I did the following:
1.) Downloading a actual MDAc firmware (WWE version)
2.) Downloading the country-free hacked MaUpgradeUt.exe
3.) Flashing the device
Everything worked fine but cause my device had an english (WWE) menu I decided to find out how to solv this language problem and found the thread "How to upgrade with the latest I-mate Jam ROM --GUIDE--" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=14973). I understood the process but I still wasn´t able to upgrade cause of the following reason:
1.) I downloaded the new firmeware as WWE version
2.) I went through the hacking process
3.) I tried to flash the MDAc with this firmware
RESULT: The "MaUpgradeUt.exe" told me that the firmware isn´t made for my device (country error)
So I decided to use the hacked MaUpgradeUt.exe which worked but brought me anohter problem. When I startet this file it analysed my device and (normally!) listed me the actual and the new firmware version ... but these fields left empty. When I proceeded the next window told me that I successfully flashed my device ... but the device never received any data during this one second from on to the final window.
So ... flashing with the original MaUpgradeUt.exe is impossible while trying to change the language from WWE to GER ... and the hacked MaUpgradeUt.exe has a problem flashing the device.
Does anyone has an idea how to solve this mess and/or another idea how to change the language later and/or is there a application which offers this (i.e. any mobile phone does 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
Hi!
I asked this question first on another board, but XDA-Dev is for me the best board when it come to hard question.
So here's the problem : I think I messed up my device while trying to flash it with a french rom.
I edited the rom and swaped the headers with Hexedit from the english roms to the french roms in :
RadioFS.nbf
RadioOS.nbf
CEOS.nbf
EXTROM.nbf
But here's the problem... while flashing the device, the RadioOS is stuck at 0.1%.
If I remove the RadioOS.nbf & RadioFS.nbf from the hpRUU.ini then it flash the unit, and everything is ok except that I cannot active the Radio (cell phone), it lookup the device.
Here's what I see from the Asset Viewer:
Radio Present : Yes
Radio Firmware Version :
Radio Protocol Stack Version :
Radio Bootloader Version :
Radio File System Version :
Default Radio GDFS Version :
I've tried to reflash the device with bigrom, but no luck, it just flash CEOS.nbf & EXTROM.nbf.
Finally, if I try to flash de device from windows with the ROM12132Beta (with activesync disabled) I get an Error 514 message : device failed verification. So I hacked the rom to get it to flash (with hexedit I replaced the 3 letter language with blank space) but it get stuck at 1.0%.
So do you know if there's is a way to force the flashing of the RadioOS.nbf & RadioFS.nbf? (maybe directly from the SD card?)
Thank you very much in advance!!
Please anybody has a little idea?
Because since this is a US device and I'm in Canada I'm not covered by the warranty, so I'm really screwed. I understand this is an HP device, but it is manufactured by HTC and I'm sure that if there's a place where there's people that know well the HTC devices, it's here.
I have the same problem. I'm going to use a sd card to reflash my HW6515. Did u solve the problem?
Not really... I sent it back for repair...
Not really great because this mean I'm 2 months without my PDA

Ok...
I have successfully upgraded my Cingular branded 750 from WM5 to WM6 using the bootloader method. However, my Software Version still reads TREO750-1.13-CNG.
Is there a issue with this? Do I lose any WM6 features if my v is not 2.23? My firmware is 1.54.00.00, so, it's ok there.
I also tried to use the Update method. I changed the payloads.xml file to the correct settings for my phone. Device changed to CNG (ATT did not work) and 1.16 changed to 1.13, and high changed to 1.16, 2.23, and 2.24 to try all I have seen.
When the update starts (after changing the xml file) the display on the updater reads loading files, then when it begins to start the update, my phone display says "Goodbye" shuts off like I had hit the end button to turn off the radio, and goes to a screen that has 4 horizontal color bars (R,G,B,W) and then the updater says that it lost the connection to the phone. I'm screwed after this point.
So, if there is no issue with the 1.13, then I don;t really care about the above. At 1.13 the phone is working.
If there IS an issue, then does anyone know why I cannot complete the update without the phone disconnecting from the updater?
Update.
After reading some other posts elsewhere, someone made a veiled reference to my 2nd issue with the loss of connection during the update, and suggested plugging the Treo into my PC while already in bootmode[. No drivers tried to load, so after a quick trip to device manager, and a reinstall of the driver, the Treo no longer disconnects during when the updater switches the phone into bootmode. It's updating as we speak.
The bootloader method does not upgrade all aspects of the phone's ROM. You need to use the .exe method, but you'll need to edit the .xml file that is created in your temp dir after the FIRST STEP of the installation program.
Search around. This has been discussed a million times.
hi there!
i had a problem with the microphone in my universal, so i get a used motherboard and successfully replaced it.
suddenly (3 days after) it stops receiving calls ("NO GSM" error), so i tried to flash to a WM6.1 with new rom, radio and extrom.
i successfully done the rom and extrom upgrade, but radio rom keeps at 0% and dont start flashing.
i get out from bootloader and go the device proprieties and there's no info about radio rom.
i tried to backup all roms from device to sd card, using mtty1[1].42 but i cant because shows "error=FF" (i allready have done this task successfully on other device)
also tried "task 28" but without any results
i tried flash back to Imate Rom's (i dont know what the original rom, but tried 2 without success), because it only flashes rom and extrom, but no radio
i also upgrade bootloader with success.
any idea?
