I have the Verizon PN820 Smartphone whcih is running WM5. I see that there have been several WM6.1 roms for older smartphones and I was wondering if I could extract the WM6.1 from those rom, and build a new rom for the PN820?
I have extracted the current ROM via the pdocread util. I grabbed the StartTrek WM6.1 ROM since I imagine it's close to my phone except that mine is CDMA and not GSM.
Is it possible to extract the OS from the Statrek 6.1 rom and install it on my PN820? If so, is there a guid that I can use in doing so?
Thanks,
Jef
Phone is 750v, recently updated to WM6.0 from the Treo website under the 2.18 version, branded to Vodafone (starts up with voda logo), but not locked to telco providers (can change sims).
I've exhausted all me options and info from the various forums.
I've tried everything from kaiser hardspl, kaiser custom ruu, using the sd card to install the cheeimg of the 6.1 rom, cheetahunlocker, hardspl 1.1/2/3 and so on, and etc related programs. Practically everything.
Upon installation progress of ROM, either at 1 or 7% the screen either goes black/blank and the device restarts or the error 207 appears. For smaller .nbh files, progress hits 100% and within split second screen goes black/blank. The rom is not updated in any of these circumstances
I am able to restore the rom using the application downloaded from treo website. By that I mean even restoring 6.0 over 6.0. This concludes that it is possible to install rom updates using the treo provided app.
But not other apps. I'm exhausted. Do not have a solution.
Does anyone know how to resolve these issues to upgrade rom from 6.0 to 6.1.
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.

hey i have a question, i have a tmobile mda that wont update past wm5 i have tried a whole bunch of diff roms and it still stays at wm5, my old mda worked with every rom until it got stolen now i got another one and i updated it to wm5 and now i cant update it to any other rom the button rom is supposed to wm 2003 and it stays wm5
is there any way someone can give me a good working wm6.5 rom please i need this.
Hi folks,
I used the CheetahUnlocker.exe and went through all three steps.
But no matter what SIM card I insert, the phone doesn't get ready. When I want to open phone settings or even just to open the keypad, my Treo tells me the phone was not ready and that I had to wait for 15 seconds.
Well, I'm tired of waiting Is there any ROM I can flash to just fix the phone?
I used the WM6.5ROM from this thread:
New!! WINDOWS MOBILE 6.5 "23017 R2" SYS/XIP ROM ~ Updated: 8/6/2009 by navenedrob
I have the same freakin problem ... Any help on this issue PLEASE!!!!!
Try flashing the official rom first. It'll update the radio, then flash the 6.5 rom.
