WM 2005 installation -> SD IMAGE - or whats better?

Ok, for the last time, i'll be lame and ask once again where the hell can i find out how to install WM2005 in my device?first of all, if i have an SD image from buzz lightyears site named:
Code:
WM5_SDimage_1.60c.00WWE_PS_128RAM_nocert_Hima.rar
which is the newest one from what i know, how do i install it? the files in it are:
1. SDimage_OS_1.60c.00_PS_128RAM_nocert_.bin
2. PostInstallFixes_WM5_1.60cWWE_Himalaya.cab
3. READ.txt --> which has this written in it:
3a.
1.60c.00WWE
128MB RAM
Persistent Storage
Removed certification.
Improved caching.
You MUST replace SD header with your own!
Replace everything between "REPLACE START" to "REPLACE END".
Please make sure you also install PostInstallFixes.
my questions:
1. what do they mean by saying SD header? which header?what the hell? the name of the SD image file? or my SD card? or what?
2. this install is different from the other classical installs, .bin should be easier, but at this moment in time its just confusing, therefore i'm wondering, what where and how?
3. copy these files first onto my SD card on himalaya and then what? or open file on pc?
4. cant emulate bin since no cue file and just doesn't wanna do that. exlpanation or solution?
5. please help me out guys. its important. or should i stick with the other file i have?:::
***** WM2k5_1.60c.00WWE_XDA2_HIMALAYA.rar *****
--> i do not understand the first 5 steps, atleast how to do them. here is attached the txt file. please read and explain.

Stick with it! It's the easier method to install.
The SD image version is just the same with the one you have, they just differ with the METHOD to install to your PPC.

Lost Usb Bluetooth connection after update

Well here I am stupified. I updated the ROM to a WM6 the phone works well with one exception USB and Blue tooth connections will not work. I am struggling with an sd card update ( to reinstall another rom) , but have failed so far. Any suggestions as to how to have my phone talk to th epc again. I can use the sd to get files back and forth. Obviously I am a novice.Txs
AT&T 8525 aka hermes,tyten etc,

What phone do you have?

Duuh, should have mentioned that
ATT&T 8525 aka hermes tyten etc

Are you using XP or Vista to do the upgrade?

In case you have a preproduction HERMES and you can not update the ROM (due to the fact that your bootloader is <1.04) here the very easy solution:
- format a SD card with FAT32
- extract the .NBH file from the rom image you like
- rename the .NBH to HERMIMG.NBH and copy it to your SD card
- put SD card in phone and start it in bootloader (hold OK button on left side and POWER button at same time and stick with stylus in RESET on bottom)
- confirm flashing on screen
- flashing might hang after some time but this is normal. Just wait. Complete flash takes about 30 minutes.
This also works for normal (non preproduction) devices but keep in mind that if the CID does not match the flashing might not work.
John
P.S. Same applies to other devices: BREEIMG.NBH, STARIMG.NBH, ...
(i didn't write this)

have a vista x 64 and a xp laptop

bootloader starts
screen shows
Herm100
ipl-1.04
herm100
spl-2.10.Olipro
serial

- format a SD card with FAT32
no issue
- extract the .NBH file from the rom image you like
can do, but only receive
splash.nb os.nb and sub splash file
- rename the .NBH to HERMIMG.NBH and copy it to your SD card
where is the .nbh file coming from? is this the org rom download?
what do I miss?
BTW Thanks for all the help

Just go to the Hermes forums and look for a rom that you like over there and download the package. More than likely, the zip/rar file will have the upgrading tools as well as a file called nk.nbh. This is your rom. Just do as nir36 said and you should be fine.
Good luck!

everything done as above sugested.
I cannot get past the multicolered page with the above mentioned information. ???
Herm100
ipl-1.04
herm100
spl-2.10.Olipro
depending of situation it says serial or usb
I left it their over night with no change,pushed ok buttons no change
what can i do??

did you use a different rom?
I assume you hardspl'd your device prior to flashing a rom right?

Before I did anything I used
http://www.mrvanx.org/thg/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=16&Itemid=26
from olipro to hardspl my herm
I then succesfully uploaded a vanilla 2d from josh. As the phone went dead( nirvana) a couple of timnes i tried to use a different rom
which i could upload, afterwards though the phone works but no bluetooth or usb connection hence no contact to activity sys and no restoring of my contacts.
Am i bricked or what is it. Can I somehowe eras all info and start from scratch?
MAin concern is I cannot get my huge contact list back in the phone

I have finaly got it to work fyi if someone needs it
I botted into the bootmaster connected to my computer and installed via "olliinstaller" a new rom told the softawre to ignore and safe hard boot.
It worked .
Thanks for all the suggestions and help

[Q] I'm new to this world. How do I install apps from here?

Hi. I hope I'm posting this in the right section, but how would I install apps on my T-Mo MyTouch 3G Slide, that are offered on this or any other forum? Do I download them to my PC and first start the installation there, somehow? Or how would I do it??
I'm very new to this whole Android world. I just bought my phone.
Thanx for the help!!

Applications in this forum usually comes in the form of .apk's. An apk is an installer file for Android and must be run from the phone.
So you have two options when you find programs here on this forum:
1. You download the file on your PC, connect the phone to your PC and mount the SD-card, copy the file over and run it from your phone
2. Browse to the forums via your phone and download them directly and run them
It can be done via dropbox, chrome2phone, email etc as well if you want to

THANK YOU!!!!
The file that I download, copy in to any folder (Programs ect...) on to your SD card and run the file from the phone, correct? What is the format of that file needs to be? It won't be an *.exe right? What format do I make sure the correct file is? Is there any other ways? Just asking
Thank You!!

You can put it anywhere on the SD-card, just be sure you have some sort of file manager from the market and remember where you put it After that you just run it and it should install (if you get several options when you run the file, the correct one to run it with is "Package Installer").
The files will be in the format programname.apk

[Q] task rpcrouter:15 blocked (CDMA)

Same as posted here "I have an HTC [differing: Touch Pro (Alltel CDMA)]. I followed the instruction on forum.xda-developers.com for [FRX*] but it [enters an endless loop] at "task rpcrouter:15 blocked for more than 120 sec". The solution that worked in that link does not solve the same problem with a CDMA RAPH800.
The solution given there (paraphrased from that thread):
Link to the fix. The issue is caused by not having a data plan; the install gets stuck in a loop looking for a signal.
The solution that worked for a GSM phone
download RIL file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...9&d=1302817139 and place in the root of microsd.
download rootfs file from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1NGCVCTT and place in the root of microso.
add to the end of /conf/froyo.user.conf file "/sdcard/libhtcgeneric-ril.so /lib/froyo/libhtcgeneric-ril.so" before the last "}"
Please help me find a solution for a CDMA phone - next month I'd like to take a dozen of these phones and use them as learning aids in a construction course for laborers, but I cannot start testing construction applications since I cannot get the OS to work.

I'm curious as to what happens when you format your microSD and run FRX7.1MR without anything additional. Could I get you to try this method without the additional stuff?
To be explicit, I'd like you to format your microSD with something other than the Windows method and I'd like you to download THIS (if you haven't already) and THIS. Extract the contents of both files to the root of your microSD. You should see a folder called "FRX07.1" and under that folder, you should see 3 folders and 7 files. Move the contents of that folder up to the root of the microSD. Look under the folder called "STARTUPS" and locate your device type (ie RAPH800) and copy over to the root of your microSD. Once done, run Haret on your phone and let me know what happens.

do you have an application you suggest for "format your microSD with something other than the Windows method"; sourceforge did not turn up anything.

use SDFormatter

wow that SDformatter link has a lot of popups - this link feels less like I just found a date at the bus-stop sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3 ; but it will not install on either Server2008R2 x64 or Server2003 R2 SP2 x32.
I reformatted the microSd with the format tool in Server2008R2 as FAT format. Installed the files, and boom - I see little green guys swirling around the screen. After awhile a dialog appeared "Sorry! The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"; the dialog closed and it seems like it works! Thank you. I will try again with the HPtool and as FAT32.
Now I just need to learn how to use Android - and the screen calibration seems off? Deleting ts-calibration and rebooting to calibrate.

Glad to hear using the latest bundle works for you! Yeah, that might be a slight issue with an outdated kernel. The main thing I wanted to do is get you booted up first!
Before we continue, make sure you make a backup of your current configuration by copying the contents of the microSD and either moving it to your computer or some other storage device. This way you know you have a "working" bundle.
Next we update the kernel package from HERE; might I suggest using THIS kernel package. Be sure to delete the old files (should be located under root of the microSD and called modules-xxx and zImage) first! Extract till you see two files then rename zImage-xxx to just zImage and feel free to delete the files you extracted from. I've always created my own ts-calibration file but just wanted you to have it, "just in case".
Additionally, you may also need to update the rootfs by deleting the file called rootfs and downloading THIS file. Extract the file and rename to just rootfs and be sure to place it where the file called Haret is (default location is root of the microSD).

files are downloaded and installed - everything seems to work

[Q] Debrand Dead End: Nokia Product Support Tool V5

I've downloaded an unbranded stock UK ROM (i think) for a Nokia 1020 64Gb to replace the O2 rubbish.
It is file
RM875_3051.40000.1345.1003_RETAIL_eu_euro1_212_03_336753_prd_signed.ffu
It was automatically downloaded to C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Packages\Products\rm-875
I try to 'make' Product Support Tools for Store 5.0 find the download. It will not.
Regardless of which folder I place the download in (and alter the supposed location path) all the Recovery Tool sees is the software
already installed on the Nokia 1020 - filename. It defaults to this file.
RM875_059T1Z9_3051.40000.1345.1003_062.vpl
This is the nasty O2 branded crap already on the Nokia 1020 and all it wants to find.
Have I just downloaded another O2 branded rom ?
Dead end and out of ideas.
All answers on a postcard please to Muppet The Wonder Dog.
Do I have to remove something that makes it default to the installed
version of software ?
Thanks in anticipation.

The download was successful. The 059T1V6 files are downloaded to C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Packages\Products\rm-875. I used NaviFirm+ to download.
Alas, Product Support Tool for Store 5.0 does not want to locate the files. Why ? I have moved the files (and changed the path) to different locations in an attempt to persuade the software to locate the 059T1V6 files. But NO ...it will not.
Every time I try to change the address path to where I've moved the files is adds "\Products" to the path address. Not helpful.
When I create the path it thinks it wants .C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Packages\Products\rm-875\Products...and place the files in this folder..it still refuses to locate the files.
Going round in ever decreasing circles.
Thanks in advance Anaheim.

No, use Data Package Manager for DL your FW

The reason I paid & used NaviFirm+ to DL the FW is the DL worked.
I am unable to get Nokia Data Manager to accept any text entry in any of its fields to start a DL.
I am unable to get Nokia Product Support Tool V5 to see/locate the (apparently) identical FW downloaded via NaviFirm+ to start the 'Recovery' process.
I'm on fully patched W7 (x64)
It's a mystery.

If you are in offline mode in the Data Package Manager (and according to the screenshot, you are) you can not DL the ROM.
Similarly for Product Support Tool, why did you connect directly your Lumia?
Follow the tutorial that I provided and you will get there.If you are unable to properly follow the steps (in most it's extremely detailed and with the screenshots), sorry but I can not help you.

As I said the problem is not in the downloading of the ROM.
It was very easy in NaviFirm+. I recommend the software for its simplicity and ease of use.
I have identical ROMs downloaded via Nokia Data Package & NaviFirm+.
The problem appears that the data path in Product Support Tool for Store V5.0 appends as a suffix '\Products' to the data download path. This is not the default path given from the Data Package Manager. The path is not user editable. If I create the additional folder and move the files to the folder it says it is looking for.... the Nokia package still fails to locate the FW it is trying to Recover. There are no screenshots to illustrate any error message. There is no error message.
I appreciate that it is very difficult to convey the exact steps in unambiguous English. I have been very fortunate in both multiple JailBreaks and the application of Cyanogen Mod to a collection of Samsungs..

To delete.

all paths added have the sub-folder ' \Products
' appended to the text string. I am unable to edit the path name. Just add another.

One possibility would be to use thor2 to change the product code on the device, then let the WDRT do its job.
