T-Mobile Wing HELP! ASAP!!!!!! - Wing, P4350 ROM development

I just got a T-Mobile wing from a friend yesterday. They had open touch software installed on it which I don't want. I like the plain jane WM 6.0, I know I'm boring.
I've tried 10 times to flash this thing with a few diffrent roms including calling Tmo USA direct and got a their download. One ROM i have flashes Hard-SPL goes thru the entire flash process then gets stuck at the Tmo screen.
All the other ones start the flash, get to 1% then i get error 260 connection failure. I HAVE to have my phone for work today. Any help quickly would be appreciated...

make sure to to allow activesync permission in your firewalls, or just disconnect from the internet and turn off your firewall and try to flash the rom

Help Annoying ROM

1st things first complete noob i apologize for any stupidity in the following post. Right i have faria wm6 ROM on my phone it is unlocked and i did all the steps to installing as to the instructions on this forum. Now heres wots happening my device will not load past the boot screen where it says windows mobile unless i take the battery out, now i thought it might be because of the new american dst so i ran the microsoft cab to patch it up. Well no luck there i sync my time it lags so much so i take the battery out it resets to feb 2006 and it's fine. Also active sync is a pain when you click sync the bar comes up at the bottom and thats it no roatating arrows the softkey does not change to stop. Also when i configure my exchange it says message format and i can change to plain txt or html well wen i first used it i could change it to html but now its stuck on plain txt but i dont know whether thats a setting my exchange provider has to change on there sever - i dunno. But it all seems to revolve around active sync and the devices time. Please help or point me in the right direction because i would hate to go back to t-mobiles rom which is boring!

This post makes no sense to me. First you say you can't boot past the 3rd splash screen (Windows MObile 6). Then you start talking about doing cab files and other stuff (which indicates you are past this screen and working on your device).
Please take a breath and give us more information and full details of exactly where you are at. You also have to tell us your current IPL, SPL, and OS versions that show when you boot the phone (we need exact numbers to be able to help). Is your phone a G3 or G4? What is the last / current ROM you have on your phone? Are you now able to get into your phone (ie: did you flash back)? Is your phone CID Unlocked?
Sorry for my confusing post. I am able to get past the boot screen if i take my battery out and put it back in but turning on normally It wont get past if you get what i mean. further explained below...
Heres my numbers: ipl is 2.21, spl 2.21 os 2.18 gsm 02.19.11 , it is CID unlocked, it was flashed to farias rom from t-mobiles latest rom. Ive flashed farias rom twice now going back to t-mobiles first in both instances.
The main problem i seem to get is with the devices time - i'll try to explain this as well as i can - if the devices time is set to now then it is really slow and active sync does not work and the today screen will only show the time and nothing else like messaging, live, tasks, calender etc. and if you reset the device it does not get past the boot screen. Taking the battery out therefore reseting the devices time it works great but changing the time back to now and it lags again. Hope you understand this
P.S. I have installed microsofts dst patch

I honestly don't know if this will help, but you might try flashing the latest TMobile US ROM to get you to 2.26 instead of 2.21
http://www.t-mobileapps.com/downloadcenter/Software_List.cfm?selDevice=24
Then flash Faria's over that. Note that the 2.26 ROM will put the 2.25 Radio on your phone. You may want to then get the 2.19 UK radio from the ftp site here and go back to that one (I find the 2.19 works better than the higher versions on WM6 for me).
Also (and maybe before doing what I just suggested) try either turning off BatteryStatus, or upgrading it to 1.04.201 Beta 3. There have been fixes and I had a lockup problem (I couldn't reboot my phone if the USB cord was plugged in and BatteryStatus 1.04.200 Beta 2 was running). I'll attach the cab to this post.

Are you overclocking or anything? Have you installed other apps, or does it work this way right after installing Faria's WM6 rom?
Faria's WM6 ROM is very good and I've never seen stuff like this reported so it seems its something with your setup. You could try flashing the fixed mUn's ROM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1172977&postcount=361 ) and see if it behaves the same way. If it does then you have an issue with your phone it would seem. If it doesn't then its an interaction with software on the device.

You don't have to install this on WM6.

Can't seem to flash any roms... CID locked G4..

So I've spent the last two days either out drinking or recovering and studying this and a few other forums. I feel like I have a solid grasp on flashing a rom but I'm still having the same issue with every one.
First, I have a T-Mobile HTC Wizard, flashed with most recent OEM build, CID locked, SIM unlocked.
Usin Shelltools to extract the OS, I've tried NBD 9.1, and also the OS that comes with Faria's guide. I copy those two cab files Cert and enablerapi to my Wizard and installed them, and soft rebooted with the stylus hole on the side, activesync to my comp, and run shelltools.
About 5 minutes (shorter than it should be from what I've heard) in with either of these OS's I get a message saying that the install is done from shelltools and my wizard gets a message that says "Cannot load ndblog.exe" or something very similiar to that (Note to self: get a better memory or write things down! ><)
After that I get stuck at bootloader and have to reflash OEM.
Any idea what's going on here? I assume I'm missing some idiotic detail...I feel like I've got this process all processed mentally and that's always where dumb mistakes are made
I suspect the error your referring to might be 'cannot execute replog.exe'
What about Wizard Love, have you tried flashing this rom then using shelltool?
Alot of people advise to flash the rom that your device was shipped with and since you've pretty much exhausted that option I suggest you get some wizard love happening prior to using shelltool again.
Good Luck

I have this same problem when using shelltool on my desktop computer. My simple solution: use my notebook computer. My guess is that something installed on my desktop was stopping shelltool from doing its job. I.E. firewall, anti-virus software, something. I really don't know what it was, it might even have been some kind of virus that I dont have on my laptop due to better virus protection and wlan switch.
My reccomendation, try a different computer if you can before you give up totally or pay to have your device CID unlocked at IMEI-check.com and then you will be able to use RUU method.
Thanks guys, I'll try these two solutions tomorrow as its almost 2am and I have to be up for work in 6 hours ><.
Also funny thing is, I got so annoyed that I almost just rocked the damn pay service to get unlocked, but as I was checking out I saw that they had this drawn out process where you had to send them personal info (drivers license?!) to verify your paypal isn't stolen. Isn't that like, the ####ing point of paypal to begin with!? I'm not sending scans of I.D.'s so some shady cell phone hacking website!
I hear that. Thats just asking for your identity to be stolen...

Vodafone Branded Upgrade - Crraaasshhhh!

Hi Everyone.
Having exhausted the official avenue of enquiry with Palm, I'm turning to you to help me upgrade my Treo 750V, locked to a Vodafone SIM, to Windows 6.0mobile because a) I'd like the speed, b) I'd like my ringer to work, c) I want the latest.
I got my updater off the Palm site, did I as was told to the letter. Upgrade stalled having copied files / just sat there at the "executing upgrade screen" then announced upgrade failed and advised soft reset and try again. I tried again. And again. And again. I have better things to do.
Contacted Palm support. I swear they didn't read the mail - only answered it. I worked with them though and, eventually, everything went quite for a few days. Today, I had a mail advising me to download another updater (they provided a new serial number. Got it. They also told me to run the recovery tool but, are you listening Palm, MY PHONE DOES NOT STALL! IT JUST DOESN'T GET TO THE END OF THE UPGRADE. YOUR WEBSITE TELLS ME ONLY TO RUN THE RECOVERY TOOL IF THE PHONE STALLS AFTER UPGRADE!!!!
I ran the new updater. Same issue. It copies files, sits there for twenty seconds doing nothing, then fails. Phone gets to the colour band screen but that's it. Game over after that.
I tried your flashing soloution off a FAT32 SD card - that doesn't work for me either. I'm not a dummy, honest - WTF I'm I doing wrong?
Vista Vaio with mobile device manager on the PC which connects and syncs fine. No hack or crap on the 'phone.
Help me please before I sledge my Treo to fragments and get a couple of cans and a bit of wet string!
Upgrade accomplished.
Sorry to be replying to my own post - I've sorted this issue out now. Please see my later post - CHEEIMG issue - Sorted

Omg i f***ed up!!! Ryan mogul i know you can help pretty please with a cherry on top!

Ok i was forum jumping and i tried a titan rom... I hate it !!!!!!!!! It changed my windows 6.1 to something i have no clue what it is now and i just want everything back to normal. I reinstalled my raphael cdma hard spl and my windows is still on the ugly a** blue and orange screen and i dont know what to do. My email is [email protected] if you can help me you may have to call me or email me direcxtly ill be here all weeek night and day trying to fix this!!!!!
If you flashed another device(htc titan) rom onto your cdma htc raphael, most likely you brick't it, can you see a tri colour screen? if you can it means your device its sitting on bootloader mode since the rom image it has flash is not compatible with it, just grap a OEM cdma rom and flash it, everything should be fine, that is if that screen your phone is stuck in is the bootloader screen, which i bet it is.
Good advice above, follow it. And ffs, read your device wiki before flashing next time, what were you thinking flashing another devices rom to ur Rap?
As said above, if you cant get into bootloader, ur fu##ed, so i hope you can.
Good luck.
Ok so i didnt brick my phone i got everything back to stock now from here any suggestions on getting my wap to work and also my incoming pix? I have tried all methods i have found online and i actually had the wap working at 1 point but i messed that up as you can tell.
Now that doesnt make sense.
I also tried an upgrade to my Mogul from ryans stuff. Started going through boot loader and all of a sudden the screen went to red green blue and white. Very patriotic. but lost windows mobile center. So I wasn't sync'd anymore. so I could proceed in the install until. Sync'd. I can syn' I assume because the phone in a bootloader mode. Tried a hard shut down and everything else. Just trying to get back my 6.1 now. can't until I can sync. Can't sync until I have an OS to sync to. Im a little lost.

wm5 ROM for a bricked Cingular 8125 G4 Wizard

Good day.......
I am mailing out of real frustration.
I don't know if this is allowed.
I collected a cingular 8125 from a friend in the UK.
I noticed on starting up that there was Tmobile screen first before the windows mobile screen starts. I had no problem with the fone until i realised that i couldnt connect to my local networks GPRS service (who uses a phone that can't browse)
After scanning thru the site, i decided to flash the phone with Crasing's WM6.5 ROM after doing a HardSPL and i could browse and it was the perfect phone apart from the fact that it was real slow and hangs attimes.
It got worse so i got fed up and decided to revert it back to the original ROM and sort the browsing stuff with a network fix that someone on this site had told me.
I reverted the hardSPL and on installing the Tmobile ROM, it brought out an error message, tried with the Cingular ROM same thing.
So i tired reflashing by using a software called Flash Center and it started and stopped at the 1%.
Restarting my phone just shows me the bootloader screen and i have been battling it constantly for 3 weeks but to no avail
I have read almost all forums here, done almost all they ask to do, but nothing.
The only ROM that worked on it is the WIZARD love ROM but it using exactly 21mins to start up. Thot of downloading Faria/Molski WM5 ROM (cos i sorta prefer going back to WM5) but the links for their downloads are dead.
Please help/direct me to where i can see help cos i really need the phone like 2 weeks ago. I am most definitely depressed now.
Thanks.
Check here for all HTC Wizard WM5 OEM shipped ROMS. The one for Cingular is listed in there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Wizard_Windows_Mobile_5.0_Shipped_ROMs
You say the phone is a Cingular (G4 DOC version). Does it look like this one (click link ... http://www.brighthand.com/assets/4811.jpg ) with the Cingular logo on top left, etc?
Did you require the HardSPL to be able to flash to new ROM, or did you just use the SIM / CID unlocker using the Wizard Service Tool (note the Wizard Service Tool will only work for G3 DOC type device, not the G4 DOC devices)
You said you also removed the HardSPL. If you removed the HardSPL, then you can only flach the OEM ROMS (i.e., if yours is Cingular, then you can only flash the Cingular Stock ROM ... check link above and use Cingular 2.25 (click here ...
... http://www.4shared.com/file/BJUEhCC9/RUU_Wizard_Cingular_8125_WIZCN.html )
First do a battery pull, replace battery, then start device in bootloader mode (i.e., press and hold Camera button on side, then using the stylus press and release Reset button on same side. Do NOT power up the unit by trying to turn on using the Power button on top). Take note of IPL and SPL version that shows up on Bootloader (3 colour) screen. Then plug in USB and try re-flashing with Cingular OEM ROM.
After successful OEM ROM you can then try HardSPL again and re-flash to other ROMS. There are plenty of cooked WM5 and WM6.1 ROMS out there. The WM6.5 is too much (I think) for these devices. A neat clean simple WM5 or WM6.1 with overclocking works very good.
Regarding your settings for ISO, GPRS, WAP etc. you can look for a Netwrok Wizard cab file, and install ( heres the newest I could find ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=121023&d=1223800573). This will install 6 files into the root Windows directory of the phone. Reboot the phone and you will notice the Network Wizard icon show up in the Settings/Connection control panel.
One of the files it installs is called provision.zip. You will want to update this by copying the following to the windows directory overwriting the old one. This contains all the settings for your phone. Once you copy this over, click on the wizard in the Connection Settings control panel, and it should give you options for Country and Cell Phone carrier/provider. Click away and it shoould automatically set up the correct info for WAP, GPRS, ISP, MMS, etc.
Good Luck. Let me know what happens.
WOW
Thanks for the response
I used the HardSPL to flash the new ROM.
I removed the HardSPL and the Olip in my IPL was changed back to the 2.26.0001
I tried the cingular 2.25 ROM but it says it wasn't meant for the device and most times the RUU doesn't recognise the phone. Tried the Tmobile 2.26 same thing.
Also used crossbow WM5 AKU2.3 and AKU3.3 ROMs they worked but fails at 96%
The only ROMs that worked is Wizard Love ROM but it spends about 20mins to get to the part where it asks you to align screen and it doesn't move from there
Thanks for the info on the WM5/WM6 also the network wizard cab file. Really hope that phone works
I'm a pretty desperate guy right now cos i use the phone to trade and money is moving, she(money) is a *****
WOW
Thanks for the response
About the pix you reffered to? Yes thats exactly how my phone looks like
I had used the HardSPL to flash the new ROM.
I removed the HardSPL and the Olip in my IPL was changed back to the 2.26.0001, SPL 2.26.0001
I tried the cingular 2.25 ROM but it says it wasn't meant for the device and most times the RUU doesn't recognise the phone. Tried the Tmobile 2.26 same thing.

PS: My IPL/SPL is 2.26.0001
OK. Good info.
Not sure how you did it but somehow you managed to get the T-Mobile IPL/SPL on it, and yet it still recognizes it is Cingular. For one reason or another one aspect does not let the other load and vice versa. ????? Hhhmmmnnn ????
Here is what I would try.
1) I have attached a zip file called SoftSPL. Inside I have made an image file nk.nbf, which contains ONLY the 2.25.0001 IPL and SPL for the Cingular 8125.
Unzip this folder to your Desktop and then try to run only the "newromupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe". Remember, start the phone up in bootloader mode, connect via USB then run the "newrom...exe" file. If you get an error right away saying this is not the right update utility for the phone or something like that, then start over ... i.e., disconnect phone, pull battery, start phone in bootloader mode,reconnect via USB, but this second time try using the one called "2.exe". I found sometimes when I flashed ROMS the first one did not work and the second one (2.exe) did for me.
IF this works, once you get the 2.25.0001 IPL and SPL showing on the bootloader screen then start again (pull battery etc. same as above) but then re-flash back to the original Cingular OEM 2.25 ROM that you tried earlier (the original RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1.exe). Try this and let me know how it goes.
If and when you get it back to the original Cingular ROM, if you get to this point, you can then start back like it was when phone was "new". It will still be SIM unlocked so you can use any carriers SIM card but you cannot flash other ROMs.
If you are going to try other ROMs, re-apply the HardSPL, but make sure you only use ROMs that have been cooked, say they are safe for G4 devices and do not have IPL/SPL in them. This means when you have it HardSPL'd you cannot, or should not use other carriers OEM ROM's such as T-Mobile 2.26 or 3.08.
Lastly, if you do like some of the "extra's" offered with WM6 or higher and do not like a slow phone and want to keep it fast like a WM5 ROM, then stick to either WM6.0 or WM6.1, clean (or what they call Vanilla) ROMs.
Good Luck. Give feedback of how it works out for you and pay attention to errors and messages and IPL/SPL etc. for reporting back and I can help you a little more.
Another thanks again.
I really owe you if and when my phone is finally done cos i think i am getting there.
But i successfully changed the IPL/SPL but on flashing the cingular ROM it says the RUU cannot see my phone and once it sees that it says the update utility cannot be used for my phone.
So what next?
Maybe the ROM is not the right one but i ensure it was meant for g4 tho"
Tried MUN-RUU but to no avail
Eagerly waiting your reply.
Thanks again
OK. YES. You are getting there.
You say the phone is now IPL/SPL 2.25.0001. It shows this on the 3 colour bootloader screen?
What did you run in order to flash; did you run the "newromupdateutility_wizard.exe", or "2.exe", or did you need to run the "START-sSPL.exe" to flash th nk.nbf file I made? (I don't think the "START-sSPL.exe" works from the bootloader screen...phone has to be booted to working status).
Here's what is next. I made a new nk.nbf which is the Cingular 2.25 OS, splash screens and 2.25 radio only. I removed the IPL/SPL and the Extended_ROM, and cooked this back to nk.nbf.
Download it from here .....
http://www.fileswap.com/dl/7WhstX82/nk.nbf.html
..... and copy this to the folder you made of the SoftSPL earlier (overwriting the other nk.nbf - you may want to save that as a back up)
Now try flashing this new nk.nbf again as you did for the IPL/SPL.
If it works, then let the phone boot up completely. Check it out. And then you can run the RUU for the original Cingular OEM once the phone is booted to get it back to Cingular OEM state (full IPL/SPL, OS, GSM, Extended_ROM, etc.)
From here (if you make it) then any further flashing of ROMs, you will want to flash G4 safe ROM's, and you can do this using the SoftSPL folder. Copy the nk.nbf from the custom ROM you want to flash into the SoftSPL folder and run the "START-sSPL.exe" with your phone connected (not in bootloader mode, has to be completely started up and recognized by ActiveSync, but you do not need to establish partnership ... just skip/cancel that part and phone will connect to ActiveSync as a "Guest").
Good Luck. Let me know how you make out with this.
Just to answer your questions.
I ran the "newromupdateutility_wizard.exe"
Would follow thy new instruction sire and get back to thee.....lol
Thanks again.
I am not here to say "Yipee, its done'
But rather to say that the universe, cingular and the god of communication might have just conspired against me.
Just when i think i would finally get my phone working after 3 weeks, a 2 yr old kid took my batteries and only God know where that batteries is now.
Tried to buy a new one but all i get is "Wow! that a pretty old uncommon phone here"
I intend to use an ac to dc converter and when i am done i would give you the feedback
Thanks
PS: Just wanted to give you the heads-up
So i found the battery early this a.m.
Flashed the phone with the ROM you uploaded and it was succesful but on starting it i get a green screen and its damn slow and doesn't even pass the spot where you are asked to align screen (i really do think that nothing happen and its still the Wizard Love ROM that its still booting into)
So I am still stuck?
Hmmm....
OK i guess there might be a psych diagnosis for what i am doing (posting excessive replies without any respond)
It just a worried person.
So i kept re-trying to flash the ROM on my phone about 2ce.
Then i noticed on the 2nd time at about 86% the phone seemed to restart itself into bootloader mode about 2-3X, so i thot the battery was running out. Decided to take it out and get it charged.
On plugging the battery back to the phone all i got was a white screen and starting it on bootloader mode OR hard-resetting still gives me that white screen. On removing the battery the phone flashes like once or twice.
Is this the end? The phone has brought an apocalypse on?
Been doing a lot of browsing for clues but nothing tangible yet.
God smiled on me and the phone started
Got the ROM you gave me flashed and its really refreshing to see the Windows Mobile logo again
But i am stuck at the align screen tho'
I tap and nothing happens unless i drag the target and it just moves around and get back to the original spot.
Thats the latest pal.
OOPS. I did not read all .... your posts ... I just answered your post at the end of the last page. Did not see these last 2.
This is a good sign that you get past the initial boot splash screens and make it to the Align Screen ... soft reset the phone again and look at the IPL SPL that shows on the screen. Is it 2.25.0001 or 2.26.0001?
If 2.25.0001 then let the phone boot up to the Align Screen (and if you cannot get past this then just leave it at this point). Plug back into computer and now try to flash Cingular OEM ROM 2.25 that you tried earlier using the stock file.
If this doesn't let you flash for the same reasons as before (i.e., Invalid RUU tool or Not correct operator) then extract the nk.nbf from the Stock Cingular ROM (right click on the Cingular RUU OEM exe and select "Extract here ...".) then copy the nk.nbf over to the Soft SPL folder and use the START-sSPL.exe and flash this way. (you can delete the rest of the files from the Extract process.
Good Luck. Let me know the IPL SPL you get.
I know my posts are getting sickening but i am really desperate.
Got some info about how to bypass the align screen online but couldn't get my phone to boot anymore.
Soft reset/Hard reset/Bootloader mode: All of it just shows a white screen and nothin more.
Any ideas?
PS:The last time i could start the phone the IPL/SPL was 2.25.0001.
Just want to add this cos i just noticed it:
1. Sometimes tapping the Camera button alone puts the phone on (tho' it shows that annoying white screen)
2. On connecting the phone to a PC the PC recognises it even tho' its off and once i put it on and that annoying white screen comes on, the PC gives the same sound as when a USB is detached.
Hope these info would help.
I"m really getting depressed now. Hope's looking dimmer.
OK. I am now suspecting that you may also have a battery problem. How old is the battery. Could be the battery no longer has enough capacity. It may charge but only hold a charge for very short time and voltage may be too low. Maybe enough power to keep some of the electronics "awake" but not enough to drive the LCD.
It is now IPL/SPL 2.25.0001 so it should be able to flash the Cingular OEM ROM. You may want to try a different battery. Other than this, if not a problem with the battery then I think maybe phone itself is coming to an end.
I would try the battery route, making sure you have a good power source, and then try to flash the stock Cingular ROM.
You can still get these batteries on ebay and phone as well. If you are going to spend any money then maybe instead consider a newer model phone on ebay. (if you are patient you can find very good deal ... I got the T-Mo MDA Vario version of the Wizard (WIZA200) for $25 plus shipping, brand new with a carrying case. It was an estate item from a salesman who passed away and phone was not used before he passed on. One man's misfortune, another man's luck. I am now selling this on ebay plus memory card and earphone here ... http://bit.ly/hDHxrW. I have two more on sale at ebay here... http://bit.ly/eV0zZh ... and here ... http://bit.ly/gLIiKh. I am selling 3 and I have upgraded to Touch Pro 2. Go with AT&T version as this can beused world wide on 3G in North America and is quad band GSM for use in rest of world)
WOW
Thanks Bud
I would change the batteries and really don't mind buying another one but the only problem is i am not in USA nor Canada except i give an address in the US to send it to.
PS: Got to the links and it was a bidding process that was over by the time i got there. If anything opens up you can holla at me.
Would get back to you if there are any new developments
