TAKE A LOOK HERE : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_SD_Card_Flashing
FROM XDA-WIKI SECTION :
" 1. Empty (erase the contents) of your microSD card from the Windows Mobile file explorer or format it from your computer using a card reader (in some cases format doesn't work).
2. Extract the .NBH file from your prefered ROM upgrade: In windows use winrar (right click) to extract the contents of the exe file. In Linux / MacOS use cabextract.
3. Rename the .NBH file to ARTEIMG.nbh and copy it to the root folder of your microSD card.
4. With microSD card inserted on the phone, start the bootloader (The bootloader is invoked by pressing down the Record button and using the stylus at the same time to press the RESET button at the left side).
5.You should see the screen pictured on the left, confirm flashing on screen by pressing the volume slider down.
6. Flashing might hang after some time but this is normal. Just wait. Complete flash takes about 30 minutes, so check your battery or connect to charger before the flashing process starts.
!!!! SuperCID devices are able to flash any NBH image using this method. "

I unbricked my Orbit with the original ROM from O2.
Firstly put your Orbit in Bootloader mode (reset and record button)
Then using the task manager stop ActiveSync processes.
Then connect the phone via USB and then run the RUU program.
Works fine!

Or cook your own at http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org
Since the ROMs are a exe fiel, you have to extract the exe file using winzip.
You get a folder english containig the ROM NK.nbf with about 32 MB....
You can use all ROM's excpet the WM2003SE
But now i m getting the error " After complete, I made hard reset, its on first screen as "Test Only Not for Sale, Microsoft Windows powered" message with version details and stopped here only. It is not moving ahead. So plz can u instruct further wht to do

Asus P535 upgrade WM6 failed, now half bricked.

My P535, 71A version. upgrade WM6 HK version from 4.3.25 HK00.
I used a 256MB miniSD with quick formatted( it's the main reason). extract the upgrade file on it. and start the upgrade procedure.
1st step: insert the miniSD into slot. autorun started and asked to confirm. sure. confirm it.
2nd step: system starting upgrade the bootloader, read, verify, and update ok. it ask to reset with power button pressed. do as requested.
Like attachment 111.jpg
3rd step: the bootloader entered a new uploader version with "force mode" displayed. and loading the main upgrade file ASUSP535.CAP. but checksum failed. it it asked to reset with power button pressed again. do as requested.
Like attachment 222.jpg , I failed at checksum because the miniSD only quickformatted
then the nightmare came. I can't see the blue asus screen. and nothing happen when I press reset. the only valid operations are Power+Camera+Recorder + reset to the SD download mode, and Power+Camera + reset to the USB sync mode. in the SD download mode. system not recognize the *.cap file. it request a NB0 file.
What should I do?
1. Enter the Force mode again with a good formatted miniSD is the best way. but how?
2. Use the USB sync mode upgrade the file, it maybe works. but I can't find the usbloader. in my memory. there is one in the lifeforce cooked ROM pack. but it removed when I visit lifeforce's site today. anyone who download the rom pack before please give me the file. I need a try.
-------------------------updated on 9th Jul 2007---------------------------------------
My P535 has been recovered.
just use a modfied 4.3.25 HK00 NB0 file at the SD download mode, it can reverse to WM5, then repair the extend firm. don't reset, direct run 4.3.25 offical update. switch to another sd card with WM6 upgrade ASUSP535.CAP when it reboot to the sd download update screen. and all will go on.
find an old rom on asus ftp or site.
Rename the rom to galaxyII.nb0
Copy it to the card.
Boot your phone with the card in SD download mode.
The upgrade will start.
Good luck.
For me after the autorun, i pressed ok to restart but the phone still block at the blue screen. I try to reset in sd loader with the new rom in sd, with the galaxy name, and the rom is to big for the phone...

I have no idea, but maybe it is because you already upgraded the bootloader?

Yes. the first upgrade step is completed, the bootloader version is changed to 2007/04/16.
when I press Power+Rec+UP and reset, it got a Force mode USB Sync. not like the ordinary USB Sync enabled by Power+Rec and reset.
is there a way to get a Force mode with SD Download? so I can use the 79MB CAP if it accessable.

Correct me if I am wrong, but there's something written @ asus support site, where you can download the new firmware (it's a step by step how-to). Unfortunately, the support site is down at the moment.
Please follow the below procedures to upgrade:
1.Please format your Mini-SD first.
2.Unzip the file and copy it to Mini-SD card's root folder
(Under Mini-SD's root folder, there should only be folder 2577, AsusP535.cap, and GalaxyII.cap;
In folder 2577, there should only be Autorun.exe).
3.Insert the Mini-SD with upgrade firmware into P535's expansion slot and wait for firmware to setup automatically.
If the firmware didn't execute automatically, please execute Autorun.exe in Storage Card\2577\.
4.Click "System" => "Update ROM"
5.System will enter update mode, here the first part of upgrade will start.
Warningo not interrupt the upgrade process. Please execute the rest of the steps until completing step 8 in order
for the unit to execute normally. After the upgrade is complete, a message in red will be displayed.
Please press and hold power button and reset at the same time to start second part of upgrade.
6.After reboot, it will automatically enter update mode. This upgrade takes about 3 mins, please wait patiently.
Please do not interrupt the upgrade process. After upgrade is done, system will reboot automatically.
7.After reboot, it will install extended ROM automatically. After upgrade is done, system will reboot automatically.
8.Please Confirm version in "Start"=>"Setting"=>"System"=>"System Information"=>"Version".

Upgrade WM6 critical problem
I was trying to upgrade my ASUS P535 rom from V4.3.15 WWWEL_RU to firmware V4.7.12 WWE_TH00
I unzipped the P535_V4712_WWE_TH00_EXT_V120 and copied the files produced to the miniSD card except from file AsusP535.cap
I renamed file GALAXYII.cap to GALAXY.cap and copied it again to miniSD card. Also I copied file ASUS.UnlockLangID to folder 2577 and replaced autorun. (P535 ROM Tools.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=295778&page=3)
So in miniSD card there are the following files: 2577 folder with autorun and unlocklangid.exe, and in the root, GalaxyII.cap and GALAXY.cap but NOT AsusP535.cap
So I run the update and after the reset I get message ASUSP35.CAP NOT FOUND.
At that point I realise my stupidity (not copying AsusP535.cap to miniSD) so I take the card out, put it in my laptop and copy the AsusP535.cap to mini SD.
I reset the device and stick the card in but I still get the same message ASUSP35.CAP NOT FOUND.
Every time I turn on my device it tries to upgrade rom and I get the mesage. Can someone help please or have I damaged the device beyond repair?
2 mins ago I upgraded my taiwanese p535 to the thailand wm6 rom.
I had already installed a 4.3.15 wwe version, so I figured I could just install the 4.7.12 wwe TH rom without using the "hacked autoexec".
That didn't work, and I was stuck with the blue asus screen.
So I pushed up (on the d-pad) + reset, then "green phone button" (answer button) when it asked if I wanted to.
then reset the phone as soon as it said "performing upgrade" or something like that (when it started installing stuff after windows was booted).
After reboot, I was back at my old 4.3.15 rom.
Then I decided to retry it, following the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1352033&postcount=77
(the link to the p525 tools is incorrect. It should be: http://rapidshare.com/files/4612627/ASUS_P525_v3.32.WWE.customized.build.06.zip.html
Edit: The link to the thai wwe rom is incorrect too, it should be: http://dlsvr01.asus.com/pub/ASUS/IA/P535/P535_V4712_WWE_TH00_EXT_V120.rar)
When I followed these instructions the upgrade worked perfectly. I now have 4.7.12 wwe_au00 installed
I can't give any guarantees, And it may be that I was just lucky, but I suggest you try to remove the miniSD, then push up+reset, press "answer button" when it wants you to confirm, and then, after it reboots, press the reset button as soon as it starts the "upgrade". Then (I hope) it will revert back to your previously installed OS.
After that, upgrade to wm6 following the procedure in the link I pasted above.
extract nb0 from cap for asus p535:
wm5:
xda2nbftool.exe -x galaxyII.cap galaxy2.nba 0xA87BC0d5

Hold the up button, then press reset while still holding the up button.
are you sure it says "ASUSP35.CAP"?
It doesn't say "ASUSP535.CAP"?
.nb0 - it's another way t program device
press photo + reset - that asks file - resulted .nb0 file for wm5 or wm6 name as device wants - write that to sd (not sdhc) card formatted as fat16 - and insert it to device.

Copy rom to your root storage card - then flash from it. It's faster and safer .

Sorry for mistake - Internal storage !
I has O2 Ignito ( the same with HTC Diamond ) - and I always flash via Internal storage.
Have you ever read the sticky out there ?
You have to do Hard SPL first :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2508373&postcount=1
If you've done that before - follow this help:
1: Download a ROM of your Choice, RENAME the *.nbh for your ROM to: DIAMIMG.nbh
2: Copy DIAMIMG.nbh to the "Internal Storage" of your Device.
3: Hold "Vol Down and Back" (Back = Small Arrow above "End Call" Button) + reset button to Initiate ROM Flash.
4: After ROM flash- do Hard-reset again (Pen Reset, then Press and Hold Vol Down and Circle) again, on completion "Press Vol Up To Boot" Is displayed, press "Vol Up" and allow the ROM to boot.

It also works ROM update mode (Three colors screen) but when I execute the Rom update frommy pc, it reaches 2/3% and gives different Errors depending the ROM

1. Empty (erase the contents) of your microSD card from the Windows Mobile file explorer or format it from your computer using a card reader, make sure to format in FAT32 and not FAT although in some cases format doesn't work, also it is only necessary to format if your first attempt at flashing fails
2. Extract the .NBH file from your prefered ROM upgrade: In windows use winrar (right click) to extract the contents of the exe file. In Linux / MacOS use cabextract.
3. Rename the .NBH file to ARTEIMG.nbh and copy it to the root folder of your microSD card.
4. With microSD card inserted on the phone, start the bootloader (The bootloader is invoked by pressing down the Power & Record buttons and using the stylus at the same time to press the RESET button at the left side), keep both buttons pressed after releasing the reset button.
5. You should see the screen pictured on the left, confirm flashing on screen by pressing the volume slider down.
6. Flashing might hang after some time but this is normal. Just wait. Complete flash takes about 30 minutes, so check your battery or connect to charger before the flashing process starts. After the flashing process is complete, it will tell you to press any button to continue. After this the bootloader screen with its red/green/blue color is shown. Just reset the device and it will boot the new ROM.
SuperCID devices are able to flash any NBH image using this method.

Help on a MDA III

Hi, i'm trying to put a shady rom on my mda compact III, but i'm a new at this, I already downloaded the rom but now I dont now what to do, can anyone point me in the right direction or explain me step by step how it's done.
I hope someone can help me
I will assume you have an SDHC card and SD flashing is not an option
prepare for first flash:
- remove SD card and prefferably even SIM
- charge battery to at least 50%
- connect cable with ActiveSync (or WMDC), so that you can access files on your device
- make sure you use a reliable cable to prevent dropouts in midflash
get your ROM:
- download a ROM you want to try, if it's not official HTC, you NEED HardSPL before you continue
flashing HardSPL:
- find HardSPL ( get arteUSPL-nosize-cmon.zip somewhere around here, try google )
- HardSPL comes with no flashing program, you need to steal one from another ROM first!
- Unpack the ROM you chose in previous step and delete its .NBH file, place the RUU_Signed.nbh from HardSPL to the folder with blank flashing program
- make sure you are still synchronized and connected, you can alternatively switch to bootloader (hold rec until tricolor screen, press softreset)
- run the flashing process with CustomRUU.exe or similar (it has an icon)
flashing ROM:
- make sure the numbers on device start say SPL 1.11cmon otherwise try HardSPL bit again
- sync ActiveSync or use bootloader mode
- unpack the ROM you chose again OR just delete the HardSPL NBH file and place the original you deleted back
- run the EXE file and flash
- perform a hard-reset after the flash to prevent random problems (hold left+right softkey and press softreset)
-put your SIM and SD back
Have fun
I hope it's not too complex and I'm sure you can find better guides somewhere around here but this works. I think xD
Thanks...
You help me a lot.
