Downgrading to WM2003 problems. - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Hello ppl,
I have upgrading my PDA2k to WM5 but now I'd like to downgrade to WM2003.
I followed the instructions by doing.
reset,
pressing record and camera,
make 2nd and 3rd option YES,
press messages,
setup the device,
doing a power+camera+reset
it went to Serial/USB screen.
I run the Maupgrade but when I click next to "check the device" it shows no versions, and when I click next it cannot upgrade.
when I click on reset and try to run the maupgrade while the operating system is running it shows the version that I want to install but when I click on next it cannot upgrade.
any ideas?
thanks.

Follow this:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Downgrade_WM5

I did that step by step.
I told you what is the problem man, when it goes to the serial/usb screen it does not recognise the version
I am waiting for it to check a lot of time and then it shows that it cannot upgrade.
if I run Maupgrade while it is booted it shows the versions but cannot upgrade

If you get the error the first time with MaUpgrade_Ut then without removing the BA from the cradle, run MaUpgrade_Ut again..

I tried that also.
nothing happens
any other idea?

What Error are you getting.. No one will be able to help without knowing what the Error is..

I am getting Connection error.

Then you need to run MAUpgrade_Ut twice.. As seen in Wiki..
Wiki said:
However, if you are installing a rom on a device other than that which it is meant for, you will get a Device ID error, so follow these steps:
First Method (Quick/Easy) (TYPE II)
Download update to desktop
Unrar or unzip all files in exe or rar into a new folder
Open the folder with the extracted files
Download this file: MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP
Extract MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from this file and place it with the other upgrade files.
Run this new exe file instead of BaUpgradeUt.exe to update your rom
If you get an error the first time, run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe again without touching your device (don't take it out from the cradle, don't reset it, don't touch it at all!)

Cheers!

I run it more than 10 times.

I've got the same problem.
Try this:
Remove PDA form craddle
Uninstall ActivSync 4.x
reboot PC
Remove [or rename] directory C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync
Remove [or rename] directory C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\ApplicationData\Microsoft\ActiveSync
Install ActiveSync 3.x [you can find this version on your original CD]
reboot PC
Don't synchronize, don't pair [!!!]
Kill winword.exe, outlook.exe etc
Don't kill rapimgr, wcescomm, etc
Start bootloader [power+record+reset]
put PDA into the craddle [now should display "USB" instead of "Serial"]
start MaUpgrade_noID or BaUpgrade [probably it wil not recognize software versions, but don't worry]
Good luck
give feedback if it's working, pls

i run the procedure exactly as you instruct me.
and at the point where it starts upgrading it finishes after 2 seconds with message: Successful upgrade.

Do you have NBF files in the directory, where BaUpgrade or MaUpgrade_noID is dtored? For example - nk.nbf
It looks, that BaUpgrad [or MaUpgrade_noID] can connect now and is ready to downgrade, but there is nothing to downgrade.

yes I have the files.
let me explain again the problem.
with activesync 3.0 it happens the above problem
and at the point where it starts upgrading it finishes after 2 seconds with message: Successful upgrade.

Click to collapse
with activesync 3.8 it does not even connect
or maupgrade stays and checks for versions forever.

re leventes,
anybody has any idea?

These all files need to downgrade from WM5 to 2003 SE on BA.
Put all these files into one folder.
1. MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
2. RUU.conf
3. RUU.dll
4. nk.nbf <---------- The most important file, because this file is ROM. When you run MaUpgrade, it will search what ROM do you have. In you're case maybe you don't have this file. That's why there's nothing show in version ROM....

Nothing more. Sorry.

I saw this problem while downgrage my IIs and I did the following:
First you need: MS ActiveSync 4.1 installed on your Desktop PC (If yes, the first time you see "Connection error" you need to restart you destop PC before downgrage). Connect your device let ActiveSync conected and..
1. Press Power + Soft Reset button
2. Fast press both Camera + Record at the same time before
3. The Record button to move down and the Camera button to change status. You should set 2nd & 3rd option to Yes ( It's boot with format Registry & Storage on your PPC). You will see the white screen for a few minute and next the color stripe. It means you device is booting
4. Press all Power + Soft Reset + Record + Camera at a time( It's not easy . The screen will display Serial & version ready to up/downgrage
5. Run MaUpgrageNo_ID (should put in the same folder with nk.nbf, ms_.nbf &...) This tool will skip some error for up/downgrage, you may try more time if first time see error.
I did that and succeeded but can anyone tell me why my device can't receive Delivery Report? I'm sure that my current ROM version have it (I used this for a time). Please help me!

Download the XDA-Developers ROM Version 1.1.
Install the ROM on your Device via SD-Card and bootloader.
The phone should start up and give you the screen allignment and the whole menu!
Download an Upgrade for your device. This depends ont the model you are using. Check the sticker at the back of your device.
If it is a PW10A-Model download RSU Version 4.16.
If it is a PW10B-Model download RSU Version 6.24.20.
Extract the downloaded ZIP-File and copy all files to the /Windows directory of your device.
Copy the RSUpgrade.exe additional to the /windows/startup directory.
Make an soft reset of your device.
Maybe the upgrade will stop again at 1%, this may occur when you have an empty battery.
Place your device in the cradle. Run Active Sync on your device.
The RSU Upgrade will run in the background.
Wait for about 10 Minutes. The upgrade should complete in the background....
Afterwards all should work again...
Good luck....

First, here is the instruction guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=269118
Second: You are on the BootLoader Mode. That is fine, don't worry. Relax and breathe easy.
Third: If you are going to try NEW ROMs try Helmi's: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284887
Good luck, mate.
Cktlcmd, thanks for your fast answer i was getting desesperated, ive downloaded few ROMS also the one you're telling me and i can only see nk.nbf not the radio or the extended rom only the windows mobile one, and the one i tried to upgrade was a .exe ..any other link i can download the rom ? doesnt matter if its the last one, now ill be happy if i could switch it on

That is fine, that's all you need, because technically, you already have the radio and Ext ROM installed on your device. Read the instructions FULLY on the 1st link. Since you don't have the ms.nbf and radio.nbf file, you are just upgarding the CE ROM. Therefore on the new folder that you are going to compile, you only need 9 files enumerated on the list (some are included on Helmi's File download).
cktlcmd, im inserting maupgradeut_noid_602.exe in Helmi directory and execute, it goes everything ok but when i click on upgrade it appers "ERROR 150 : ROM UPGRADE UTILITY ERROR "

Did you put your device on boot loader mode by pressing the RESET PIN, BACKLIGHT BUTTON, and POWER BUTTON all at once? If NO, do that first then double click or run the Ma_Upgrade file included.
Replace the Ma Upgrade file, I updated the file from the 1st link.
Good luck my friend.
Hi cktlcmd, ive tried to do the RESET PIN, BACKLIGHT BUTTON, and POWER BUTTON ive done it thousand times and the only thing that happens its that the Serial V1.0 goes off one second and comes back

You are on the right track here. It must be the Ma_Upgrade file. You just need to reflash your device.
Ive downloaded the new maupgradeut_noid_602.exe but keeps on with the same 150 error ive tried it like 20 times already and it doesnt go
First objective is to get instead of SERIAL the "USB" message.
Please disable any firewall you have first ! Second reboot pc and change the USB port.
Hi Decebal,
Thanks for your help, the firewall is already off, should i uninstall active sync ?
try installing the 4.5 beta.
Installed Active Sync 4.5 beta and it keeps without detecting the pda

Why do you have the number "602" behind the name???? Mine does not have it.
Does your PC make a sound at all when you plug your Universal?
cktlmd first thank for all your time and answers, when i plug the universal it just appears that it doesnt recognize the usb device that's it and the file ive got for the upgrader is MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe i download it again from the link you told me and it doesnt goes, i uninstall the active sync and it seems like nothing is connected when i double click the upgrader, it finishes with congrats but nothing has been done to the universal.

When you say you double click the upgrader, which do you mean, the "maupgrade no id" file or the "ROM UPgrade" File? You should be running the MaUpgrade File.
If this still does not work, try downloading the original ROM from the device manufacturer.
if you have another PC around without activesync retry the procedure !

Or use a friends computer just so your Universal can be recognize.
Another thing, are you using a USB hub? If yes, then switch to a different USB plug. Your Universal needs to be connected directly to your computer and not a hub.

unable to update hx4700 2003 - MW6 using Bootloader!

I've read good reviews on chrismrulz's bootlaoder programe and I'm trying to use it to update my iPAQ 4700 from 2003 to WM6. However I am obviously doing something wrong as I just cannot get it to work!
Please can anyone offer any advice?
I hope I am following the exact instructions as mentioned here at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325727
and here is what is happening:
Step 1.
Make new folder in root directory.
No Problem c:\Bootloader set up.
Step 2.
Download WM6 ROM and bootloader into file.
Done as directed from links in instructions directly into new folder.
Checked and c:\Bootloader now has 2 files in it Bootloader.exe and WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar
Step 3.
Put hx4700 in bootloader mode and place in sync cradle.
I assume I have done this correctly. Screen goes blank and you can just make out the HP logo it says USB when in cradle and shows version 1.01
Step 4.
Open bootloader and select image.
Ok I go to folder and double click on Bootloader.exe
I get a security warning about the software and ignor by pressing run.
2 things now happen simutaniously. Bootloader.exe expands and creates c:\Bootloader\Bootloader and fills it with more files and directories and....
I get a box asking me to select a file to flash ROM to my device. I change the directory back to C:\Bootloader and select WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar and press open.
I get a message telling me to please wait the file is being extracted and inviting me to press ok. Before I can press ok the box is replaced with a winRAR Diagonistic Message saying c:\Bootloader\WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar no files to extract.
I close this dialog box and get another message telling me to wait whilst it edits files. Then this in turn is replaced by a message saying Error reading file c:\Bootloader\Bootloader\temp_nbf\ I click on OK to acknowledge.
And that’s it nothing else happens.
I've obviously read the instructions wrong or something can anyone help point me in the right direction? Or offer any alternatives?
I'm using Active Sync 3.7.1
Thanks
Phil
Open the rar file (with WinRar), and read the instructions that are in the Readme.txt file... And update your Activesync to version 4.5, which is needed for WM6.
Excellent,
Thank you Ridolfo, so much easier than what I was trying to do. I now have WM6 working and am very pleased with it.
One problem i now have is Activesync 4.5 will not work with my Outlook 2002 I dont suppose anyone knows a workaround or do I have to buy a copy of Outlook 2007?

Hi Dirlan,
Thank you for the files. I was already experimenting with Opera so I deleted it from my iPAQ loaded Cloudyfa_EsmertecJbed.cab and then reinstalled Opera.
Unfortunately I get an error message from Jbed saying "the file jbed cannot be opened. Either it is not signed or one of its components cannot be found.

After extracting using WinRAR
Trying to upgrade from 2003 to WM6 ...
After extracting WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar using WinRAR I am trying to follow the instructions in the readme.txt (as Bootloader didn't work for me as in the first post in this thread):
From readme.txt
To begin with if you want to flash your device using cradle,you have to:
1.In processes (CTRL+ALT+DEL) you must kill Wcesscom.exe
2.Then Enter in Bootloader (Contacts+iTask+Reset)
3.Put your device on usb cradle.
4.Run mtty11a.exe
5.In "Port" choose \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and click OK
6.Write command: lnb OS_WM6.nb0
7.Wait
8.Enjoy yourself
As I'm not all that familiar with this can someone explain in step-by-step what's involved with the mtty11a.exe application, and Step 6?
Currently my hx4700 is what I think in bootloader mode (Screen is dim an I can barely make out "USB" the hp logo and the current version "v1.01"). I previously tried the original WM5 upgrade and it just dies on me at 0.1%.
Hi tk2000
As I posted the original post I know exactly what you are going through. However once I went through the instructions you are currently trying to use every thing went smoothly. You have extracted the .rar file and are unsure of the mtty11a.exe file.
Assuming you have you have killed Wcesscom.exe on your pc as in step 1,
and the device in in its cradle in bootloader mode (as you described very faint HP logo, USB and version 1.01 displayed).
Then double click on the mtty11a.exe as in step 4. This then brings up an application and you will see a dropdown menu next to port, simply select the option \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and click ok.
6.Write command: lnb OS_WM6.nb0 now this stage I was a little unsure of myself I simply typed "lnb OS_WM6.nb0" in from the keyboard and pressed enter and it started to load. This takes a few minutes but afterwards you should have WM6 on your device.
I had to do a couple of hardware restarts and it took a few minutes in its cradle but it all works fine for me.

Hi Phil,
There should be an 'opera-unsigned*.cab' somewhere here on the forum. I didn't try it because Opera works fine for me.
Sorry

Phil3099, I a followed the instructions exactly but I don't see a status bar on the pda. mtty showes the progress with lines of + but the 4700 stays on the hp logo screen with USB on top.

How to upgrade ROm with nbh file

As newbie on this, anyone please guide me step by step to upgrade my P3300 rom with nbh file. My device is unlock already with current ROM 5.2.1908 (build 18125.0.4.2).
The procedure is given in almost every thread. It's simple really. Is your SPL version anything other than 1.11.0000 or 1.11.cmon? If yes then your phone is not unlocked. Unlock your phone by running USPL from here or the updated USPL from here.
Check if the USPL has worked by checking your SPL number. During phone booting at the white HTC screen your SPL should show either 1.11.0000 ir 1.11.cmon.
If it does you are free to flash any ROM. Get the ROM of your choice, put your phone into bootloader mode by pressing the voice record, power key and reset button simultaenously for about 5 seconds till you see a three colored screen. Attach it with USB and flash the rom using RUU.
thanks randythered for ur reply. I did w/o problem on USPL but how to use the nbh extention? where that nbh file I shall put in? pc or devise or on specific folder? I got the three colors already, then what next? pl. enlighted

do u have only .nbh file or along with .nbh file any other files are there ?
generally along with the .nbh file there are other files like romupdateutuility.exe etc.,
download those files also and save those files into your PC.
after unlocking your device then staup the device with bootloader mode (three color screen)
connect the Device with the PC by USB cable.
in the device display u will a word USB (left bottom corner)
run the Romupdateutility from the PC...
the process will guide u next steps ...
after the completion u will have new OS
Last I would recommend tht u also upgrade you Radio ROM (this is responsible for all the communication functions of ur phone i.e. calls, GPS, WiFi etc) which will enhance the communication capabilities.
Radio ROMs Link : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index..._RadioUpgrades.
Note : before flashing any ROM or upgrading the RADIO kindly CID unlock your device or you will end up the with bricked device .
You can download my ROMs, they come with the full package

As sixthsigma said, did you check if the phone is correctly unlocked? Is the SPL showing 1.11.0000 or 1.11.cmon?
Secondly, what OS are you flashing on? XP, Vista or Windows 7?
Hi Randythered, IPL 1.25.0001 and SPL 1.27.0000
I am using your ROM RtR Manila v1.0
using XP
Well, firstly thank you for wanting to try out my ROM
Secondly, you haven't unlocked your phone properly yet. The SPL must be 1.11.0000 or1.11.cmon, depending on which USPL you use.
strange... hv tried several time but w/o luck...
now I notice that it cut out after '70' and jump into 100 with disconnecting
any choices of other USPL instead of the one attached here?
Did you flash the old USPL or the new one which is nosize? It is preferable to install the old one first. And then go for the cmon nosize USPL if need be.
From a noob to a noob
Hi, heres the procedure for upgrading your rom put as noob friendly as i can put it.
WHAT YOU NEED
1. HTC Artemis p3300
2. computer running Windows XP with activesync installed
3. Usb cable to connect to computer
4. The new rom that you want to flash
5. And USPL which can be downloaded at this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
NB: For most of the newer roms you will probably need the updated nosize version of uspl http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=521406
PREPARATION
NB: Anything you need to backup or keep from your device do it now.
NB: in some cases you may have to hard reset your device before it will take the flash
1. Extract Uspl to your desktop
2. Extract the rom you downloaded to your desktop
3. Remove your sim chip and memory card from your device
4. Reset your device and sync with windows xp
UPDATING
1. In the USPL folder run the program called "start_uspl" and let it do its thing in the dos window,in
my case it goes to 70 and then jumps to 100,if you have been watching your device screen you will
see the linux penguin for a few seconds and it will change to a white screen.
A window will popup on your computer, do as it requests, when finished it will reset your device.
Sync your device with your computer again.
2. In your downloaded rom folder you should find a file called "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" or "Ruu.exe", run
it and a window will popup, do as it requests.
Your device screen will go tri-color(red,green,blue) and the rom update will begin, wait till it
finishes and thats it.
thanks soloman1 and others

Sixthsigma...you said - "unlock the device properly with USPL..." - how do I do that?
I got the same error as mentioned when trying to flash using the numb3rs ROM:
http://thewingster.com/numb3rs.aspx
I ran the herald-uspl.exe file. and ended up with teh above error. My TMo Wing has the original ROM on it and the phone itself is probably unlocked. Ive had it for a year now. Do I need to call TMo to unlock or is there some app I can run to do this myself?
appreciate any help!
nevermind, it worked ok on the second attempt!

Sense 2.5 help

Hey I would like to have sense 2.5 on my tilt too, but i really have no clue where to download it or start, help plz
I've read all the howtos and I tried flashing a 2.5 rom i found(i think its the right kind) and I keep getting error 262
Did you flash hardspl? What rom are you trying to flash? I suggest trying energy rom leo.
If by flash you mean download and run it on my computer then yes and the energy leo is the one i tried
When I click on the leo customRUU I get "windows cannot acces the specified path device of file. you may not have the appropriate permission to access this file "

I alrdy read that a few times over
"Flashing via ActiveSync with USB Lead (thanks to OliNex)
1. Download HardSPL package from *HERE* and extract to an empty folder
2. Synch Phone with PC in Windows Mobile!!! It has to be connected to activesync or WMDC via USB cable and it must not be in Flight/Airplane mode (i.e. radio should be on)
3. NEW: Internet access is required as the program checks online for updates and license
4. Run Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3.exe on PC, make sure it's launched from a local drive (not through network drive, etc.). XP requires Admin logon and Vista/Windows 7 will automatically prompt to allow it to run in Admin mode, allow it. If you get an AntiVirus warning please ignore it, it contains no harmful code (just used a packer to compress it)
5. Follow steps as prompted in the HardSPL program. If this is the first run of HardSPL on a device after Hard Reset, you must select Automatic Flash Mode (first button in Welcome Screen)
NOTE: You should usually go for Automatic Flash Mode. The Manual Flash option is only to be used as noted below and you must only attempt the Manual Mode option if Automatic Flash Mode or SSPL-Manual.exe already put device in black screen. Any other errors triggered while running in Autoflash Mode will have to be fixed as instructed in the error message.
6. It will ask you to wait while it prepares for the flashing, press OK
7. Now it should go through without any error messages, if one does pop up then follow the instructions included in the error text. If no specific instruction is shown then ask for help in the thread, but this should not ever occur (as this means a really fatal error occurred)
8. At this point the phone hopefully went to a black screen (reporting version as 1.01.C-SSPL only using "info 7" in mtty), this is the SSPL version, which is temporary. Then RUU will instantly launch
9. NOTE: When RUU says it will Hard Reset do not worry, it is not going to do that. Also when it says the flash will take 10 minutes ignore that, it will only take a minute or so
10. SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done"
So im here asking for help
did you download the package from "here" in the directions first and flash that before going onto a custom rom like nrg's?
yes i did.....
never ran into any problems myself so i dont know whats up but have you tried on another computer? flashed through sd card?

Ok, which device are trying to flash? Does tilt too mean "Tilt 2" or "tilt also"? If you are talking about a Tilt, you are in the wrong forum. This is Tilt 2 (Touch Pro 2/Rhodium).

i had this pb a few time ago, and as I remember, I solved it just by changing the folder where RRU AND NBH files where. try installing from an other folder...don't know why it works for me
