Summary of the USB MaUpgradeUt.exe methold of ROM Upgrade

While a lot has been written, the following should provide an easy-to-follow guide.
Flash the new ROM
1. Backup your pocket pc using Sprite Backup and backup your original ROM using the SD card method http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=19500&sid=446b03c5f2a384e62c7905557ddcb450 .
2. Download the appropriate “shipped-rom.exe” file, such as ftp://xda:[email protected]/MA_DANG_WWE_10600_115_10500_SHIP.exe . DO NOT run it directly.
3. Right click to use winzip (or winrar) to unzip all the files into a directory of your choice.
4. Download MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from http://www.ce4you.cz/forums/downloa...les/forums/cz/0000053752/MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and save it in the same directory.
5. Disable USB in ActiveSync.
6. Set your ppc to bootloader mode (keep pressing both camera and on/off switches while resetting).
7. Connect pocket pc through USB.
8. Run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe on your PC.
9. Don't get panic when the screen of your pocket pc goes dark. Use a torch and you can see the wording "USB ....".
10. On completion, hard reset your ppc (keep pressing on/off switch while resetting).
Follow-up Procedure:
1. After hard reset, you may choose to skip the installation of the Extended ROM files (especially the Default_Patch_bthusb.CAB file which might cause occasional bluetooth malfunction) by soft resetting the ppc, after the screen alignment routine and before the "in 3 seconds" message disappears.
2. You can re-install the splash screen of your choice by downloading the appropriate cab file. ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Splash Screens/
3. You might have to re-install all softwares one-by-one, unless you are experienced in using the advanced features of Sprite Backup.
4. Copy the appropriate autoconfig files to get the right GPRS settings. For example, if you use CSL1010 in Hong Kong, download from ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Extended-roms/O2_Mini_HK_Chinese/ : 11O_ALL_CHT_103170.sa.CAB, CAB-Customization-Magician-O2Asia1010-06Jan05.CAB, and AutoConfig.txt into the windows directory of ppc and run autoconfig.

very clear guide but how do i unzip the MA_DANG.......SHIP.exe file it says no archives found ? :?

dont unZIP them; if youre using winzip forget about it. get yourselfwinrar, right click on exe and 'extract to...' and youre done man!
regards,
Quappo

i followed your instructions..however when i run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe it states "checking the information on your device" and thats it. it doesnt do a thing. any advice?

ROM in XDA mini corrupted--HELP!!

i bought a XDA mini from ebay.when i received the device it is of german made and i am an indian.when i was trying to upgrade my ROM version,i got an error and failed to upgrade, since then it is not turning on .i tried to soft reset ,hard reset but it is fruitless.later i came to know that the software with which i tried to upgrade was for 'XDA ll'.how can i reinstall my original ROM now.moreover i noticed that something "USB v1.02" is being displayed when i connect it to the PC with USB cable and "SERIAL v1.02" when i disconnect it from the PC.
Can any one help me i have used my phone 1 month back.

Your device is now stuck in the bootloader & that's no problem. Just visit the wiki & go to the magician section. Explore it, especially the part about rom upgrading with exe method & download the 1.13WWE rom with the link on the magician main page (@ the wiki).
Then connect your magician (mini) to the usb & start the exe file (shipped-rom) you've downloaded. Now it should finish, if an error 120 comes up, use maupgradeut_noid.exe like described in the howto.
Your magician should be cured after this.

Hi there,
I would suggest you go hunt around in the forum as your queries has been repeated.
Maybe you would like to try these few steps. (Must have ActiveSync installed)
1. Search in this forum for roms (WM 6.0, WM 6.1, WM 6.5)
2. Download SOFTSPL (search in this forum)
3. Extract the files and put it to root of your phone (next to windows folder)
4. Run SPL.ink from your prophet (Using File Explorer)
5. Screen should turn white
6. Extract the files from the ROM package you downloaded at Step 1.
7. Run ROM update file.
8. Once done, phone will reboot and viola ~
9. A new OS is running in your prophet

Hi Sunset,
I have roamed around the other post also , but not be able to understand.
your 1st step : u r talking about the wm6 download (exe)
2nd step: what is SOFTSPL (need to download 1st in phone)
3rd: which root folder u r talking about
4th: where i can find the SPL.ink
6th: need to run the exe from i have downloaded in phn at step 1?
7th where i will find the ROM updated file
sorry , I dont have any idea of these things, Pls explain me it would be better for me and post a link for step1 and 2

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405384
the thread explains it quite well

The Wiki is your guide
Always try the wiki first and read two three times what the methods say and follow slowly that should help you on most of the things mate.

That still fails for Imate Jammin G3
I tried those steps for Imate Jammin G3
After the screen turns white, i run the G3 UPDATEEXE from the computer.
It fails as it couldnt connect.
When i remove and plug back the usb cable from the phone i hear the sound - which indicates the connecitivity.
I have to do soft reset to start the Windows Mobile again
Note : i am trying to Upgrade WM 5.0 to WM 6.1

The best ROMs are "s123 from linerty" and the ported MIUI. You can find linerty's ROM in needrom.com and the MIUI in the MIUI forum.
