Sorry but this is not possible
Sorry but this is not possible period. After upgrading a phone it can not be downgraded!
Do a search for "downgrade phone" (with quotes) here on xda-developers.com via it's seach engine;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php
If you insist on doing it anyway... I advice you to obtain an empty image and put it on the phone first (that's what I would do). Then reboot twice (normally windows recognizes the 'former' OS like an old friend and operates faster in my opinion) before putting an old WM5 OS on the phone If you do, I would not be surprised if you'll completely brick your phone. You are on your own here, do not expect help from me or others...
Anyway success with it,
tried tried and not a single spark of success... not a way for downgrading...
anyways thanks

I am a new owner of SPV M5000..It is my first time upgrading my unit and I have decided to use Jwrightmcps Crossbow ROM Update 2.02.02 WWE rom because it is receiving lots of positive feedbacks..I have already downloaded the rom for M5000..What should I do next?Do I just need to click the .exe file or what?Or if there is any other rom that you could recommend,tell me please...
WM5 or WM6?
Thanks a lot guys
it depends on what do you want to do with your device.
if you need a very stable ROM, and a Wifi, Email, Bluetooth etc. working, then you should upgrade to the last version of WM5. for this you must go in the "Universal Upgrading" forum.
WM6 is much faster, but sometimes there are problems with bluetooth handsfree, and with the wifi (you cannot access some specific pages, but you can access other) and with others.
whatever you choose, keep in mind that upgrading your SPV can be dangerous if you don't fallow all the steps.
First of all, be patient and read the Wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/. A lot of things are explained there.
After that, read as much threads as possible. Always read the threads of the ROMs you want to install. you will find out all the potential problems with the ROMs and you might decide to use a different ROM.
Keep in mind that you will loose the waranty of the device by performing an ROM upgrade.
1
the first thing you must do, is to upgrade the bootloader.
for this, go here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Bootloader
2
the second thing you must do, is to unlock your device. in this way you will be able to use different SIM cards, not only Orange ones. you will be able to use T-Mobile, O2 etc.
it is important to remove your SIM Lock before going any furthere.
for this you must go here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Simlock_by_Buzz_and_team
3
after the SIM unlock, you will have a Radio version 0.00.00
you need to upgrade your Radio. the latest Radio is 1.15.00
for this you must go here:http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=UNI_Radio
you can download the Radio from here: http://rs45.rapidshare.com/files/21256271/11500_Radio_only.rar
4
with your new radio 1.15.00 you must upgrade the bootloader again.
so again go here and repeat all the steps: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Bootloader
5
now you can upgrade the ROM. to do that, download what ROM you prefere and then go here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_ROM_Upgrade
i advice you not to hurry and upgrade your M5000. spend more time on the forum, read the whole Wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/ and learn more about your device. probably you still don't know how to enter in bootloader, how to hardreset your device, what to do if you get stucked in bootloader mode etc.
meny people brick their devices. for example, if you unplug your device during ROM upgrading, you will no longer be able to use the device. it will be gone for ever.
don't hurry to upgrade. there are meny meny things to find out about your M5000.
good luck !!!
thanks
I just did the upgrade without upgrading my BL and radio version..Everything went fine...I am a happy user now of WM6 on my M5000..
Thanks a lot
I have two magicians, and I read many posts about nonchangeable version 2.03TX.
I test it, and upgrade one unit. After upgrade really is not possible change any (OS or bootloader). Bootloader cant vrite itself or OS memory. I try all known techniques - SDboot, TTY (lnb, s2d d2s...) via USB, and standart os upgrade via PC (of cours, noID too).
So I have two magicians, then i use good tool from "itsme" called pmemdump.exe (thank you for your good job) and download OS images and bootloader images from my magicians. The reason is:
I dont say when, and/or why, but in some magiciansThe 2.03TX destroy bootloader!!
In my flashed magician is destroyed (nulled) area from 0x10000 to 0x10080.
I attach good (before upgrade) and destroyed (after upgrade) bootloader for comparsion
Maybee if "itsme" (or anybody other? ) create new version of pnewbootloader.exe compatible with version 2.03TX (because under this version OS it not working) then tens of magicians with flashed 2.03TX will be upgradeable again . (I can send any dump if it will be need, or try apply new version on my magicians).
hi mate, i 've had installed 2.03tx and 1.13 radio on my qtek s100 for about one year...
i've had no problem in downgrading radio to 1.12 and flashing device with cotulla rom,
the only problem is that cotulla rom does not support samsung touchscreen
my bootloader is 1.02
the only trick to update i've used is to keep activesync loaded with "allow usb connection" unchecked in settings. then it worked like a charm...
I try it too with unchecked "allow USB connection" in AS (and i have XP). By me (and many others) the problem is owerwrited bootloader. You can see attached files and compare it, you will be see...
You are right, many problems with flashing is between chair and keyboard But not now.
You have the same version of bootloader like me, then probably in version of bootloader its not. I have originally T-mobile MDA compact.
Can you send me dump of your bootloader for compare?
Sorry for my bad english, i am from Czech.
yes mate no problem, link me to a guide for bootloader dumping, i've nevere done it...
ps: good luck for yours magician
Hi Shelver,
I have 2.03TX in only one magician. The second unit is powered by Cotulla WWE_03 now
Download and unzip this: http://www.nah6.com/~itsme/itsutilsbin-20090515.zip
Connect and synchronize via AS your magician, stay connected (this util working via Active Sync) and in comand line (IN win XP of course, in vista its not guaranted) go to your unzipped directory and write this (without commas):
"pmemdump 0x80000000 0x00040000 boot.bin"
and wait few seconds to done.
It read flash from address 0x80000000 to 0x80040000 (lenght 0x40000) and store dump to file "boot.bin" Its bootloader area. Then you can send me it, compare with my posted bootloaders...

You are lucky man I try it only one time, and bootloader is broken.
I have magicians only as toys, then, if it will be problem for me, then i repair bootloader via JTAG I only try 2.03TX, and try search some help for unlucky mans, who havent JTAG Now i have one broken, and one OK. But with Samsung LCD R3 . Maybee, i change display, or upgrade it to 128MB RAM for try _R1
I am HW developer, so HW problems is easy for me I create car multimedia PC on OMAP3530 platform now for my friends. Its better toy for me, magician is lovely history Only SW is hard to write to me

OK, Ill wait. I dont need it really, i have stored good copy of bootloader, i need it only for compare
And if you wish, you can flash cotulla WWE_03 ROM (you can directly from _04 to _03 say Cotulla) In this version touchscreen driver worked fine.

Hi all,recently brought 2nd hand O2 exec windows 6.1 installed.
opening screen has these numbers
D.07.60 R
0.082.104
0.80.00
unit works ok but the phone won't connect at all 2g or 3g sim card
after doing lots of reading i gather the radio rom needs upgrading or do i upgrade the whole software.
I downloaded JASJAR_ME_13082_171_10900_wwe_ship but haven't run the upgrade as i don't want to kill the unit without finding out if it is safe to run or is it the latest update tool.
Also if i do the upgrade do i lose windows 6.1 installed.
Appreciate some help here.
p.s I'm running vista on pc

Guys... I had the same problem in my new VOX...(didnt have this issue in the older one)....
Jockey was considerate enough to point the following to me...... Used it and everything was absolutely fine....No error 270 etc...
There is one alternative to application unlock your phone. To properly application unlock the phone perform the steps as suggested to me by another friendly customer:
1. go to
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?s=&s...dpost&p=825304
2.Run MoDaCo_SPV_E650_de_Brand___Fix_Pack.PREP.CAB on the device
3. Run MoDaCo_SPV_E650_de_Brand___Fix_Pack_0.5.CAB on the device and
reboot.
This will solve your problem...if it doesnt....lemme know ..
thanxxx
Hi,
Many thanks for your answer but but but after run the 2.cab I still have the same result ;(
Whhhyyyyy mmeeeeeeeee !!!!
Just te be sure, i must follow steps in this order right ?
1°) Launch MoDaCo_SPV_E650_de_Brand___Fix_Pack.PREP.CAB
2°) Launch MoDaCo_SPV_E650_de_Brand___Fix_Pack_0.5.CAB on the device
3°) Restart
4°) Launch uspl_116_jockyw.bat
5°) Update ROM with "vox-USPL"
6°) Update ROM with custom ROM
???

Hi Mathitalia,
It is over 1 year from the issues we had.
Can you please tell me if your phone is working with Italian SIM cards?
Did you manage to SIM unlock it?
All the best,
Antanico
So I got a 710 Lumia, Im passing it down to my mom, I havent used it in years, running 1 custom rom 7.8, my problem is that is kinda slow, slower than I remember, factory reset did not help, so after some searching I read it might be 7.8's fault in this model so Im trying to downgrade
After some searching on "Internetz" I got into the idea I need both Navifirm to download the firmware and Nokia Care Suite to install it.
After some more searching I fount this list of product codes, I did not copy pasted it here because I coulnt find the way to put it as spoilers and its too long, it would spam.
seidea.com/2013/08/09/product-codes-of-nokia-lumia-710 (sorry for the half-ass link, apparently I cant even link unless I have certain number of posts, just add www's)
Anyways, how do I know which model/product code whatever version I need for my phone? also it would help if anyone got a link to a tread on how to downgrade from 7.8 to 7.5 properly, thanks
