MDA 3 English ROM Upgrade

I just got a MDA 3 T-Mobile which is obviously in German. Someone sent me to english ROM, but it is a .nb1 file, and I am not exactly how to upgrade the device. Should I use XDATools? I am not sure what loader to use, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
NB1 file
Can you post the file?
Thanks
If someone can help me upgrade mine...
I get an error when trying to load the english ROM for the MDA 3, it says that the device is not connected, I have been able to copy the german ROM, off the device, but can't seem to load one in, or copy it to the SD Card, anyone have any ideas?
why don't you share with us on what you have and maybe someone here would be able to do something and bring the project to completion. so why don't you share your file with us?
Sure, do I simply upload the file here? Or i have to host it myself?
T-Mobile MDA III German ROM.
Here it is, someone please help me find a way to upgrade the ROM on the device, I think the problem is finding the correct bootloader...Thanks
Uploaded file using FTP, Filename is NKT.nb1 in the main directory
Before running the upgrade are you disbaling usb in activesync and then entering bootloader mode on your phone and cradling it?
No, I havn't tried that, ActiveSync was running, with USB connected, I am not sure how to go into bootloader mode, I tried holding power button and soft reset, that didn't do it though.
I also tried holding down the power button, center button on the directional navigation pad, and reset button with stylus and that just clears the data.
Managed to get into the bootloader, problem is now that i unchecked USB connection in ActiveSync, XDATools says please connect your XDA, it cant find it now, is this the correct way to do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated
you may try to refpash XDA3 through the SD card. I've seen several posts on doing this for XDA2, but cannot find. Probably the process should be the same except for reflashing GSM ROM.
You'll also need an english extended rom.

Have you successfully dumped existing ROM to SD-card with bootloader? Like in this post: http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=62&PN=1
You need to dump only WinCE ROM. Then reflash this ROM back.
If you'd succeed - then upload your SD card contents somewhere and I'll try to integrate english rom into it.
And have you tried to run the XDA2 upgrade tool? What does it say?
Hi,
i did everything you said and it works fine but i am unable to see the datas from my SD Card now. The MDA3 or my Cardreader want to format the card. Otherwise it wont let me take a look at it.
PS: i can show you the ext. ROM, maybe that helps?` :roll:
Read this maybe it will help you to do it, http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=93 it used to recover the dead XDA II

Heijdeman, do you mean that a r2sd backup can't be restored to a MDA Vario? I want to try the QTEK and K-JAM roms since I understood a backup could be restored.
In your opinion, is it imposible to revert to a T-Mobile image until they provide a ROM upgrade?
TIA, Cheers,
Cactus

Can you also write down how you made this backup? I have tried many ways with mine without success. I'm also trying to backup my t-mobile ROM before updating to K-Jam. However, it seems like t-mobile made a change to the bootloader.

Well I made a dump of the Rom, it's around a 100mb in size.

Hi Mesh,
I couldn't put my Dutch MDA Vario into bootloader mode. The photo + voice + reset key method is not working with mine. Could you tell me how did you do it while making the backup of the ROM?
Thanks,
Hi guys
Tomorrow I'll buy a T-mobile MDA Vario and I want to unlock it and change the language to English (as I live in France but I like it in English).
I will first try to backup the Dutch ROM and I'll try to upload it to the forum's ftp unless the existing RUU_Prodigy_1030710_110_10410_Qtek_NLD_Ship.exe is the one you seek.
Also if you have any tips and tricks on the howto backup and restore the ROM on the T-mobile MDA Vario (HTC Wizard) I would do it asap (tomorrow).
I've bought the T-mobile MDA Vario today did the specified steps to backup my ROM:
1) Sim unlocked
2) SuperCID it (they said that the warranty is lost if you do this but I didn't had any choice). Now other ROM's can be installed on the device.
3) Used the romupdate.exe and ntrw.exe to create a dump of my ROM on the provided 512 mb mini sd
4) Used my laptop's SD reader to dump the minisd on a file (~500Mb)
Until here is the backup process, next is the restore process
5) Used ntrw to write the dump file on the minisd
6) Put the minisd in the vario and power it up by holding the voice comm and camera buttons
7) Pressed the voice button when the message Install from SD card appeared
8 ) The Install was succesful and then I rebooted the Vario and had the same install procedure as the first time that I boot it. During the first one as during this one the screen freezed and I manually rebooted, but I think that trying to press the Start button will un-freeze it.
If anyone needs my ROM's dump, let me know.
Happy new year to all
PS: Additional infos
ROM Version : 1.3.2.3 NLD
Rom DAte : 9/29/05
Radio vers : 01.04.10
Protocol vers : 4.0.13.17
ExtROM vers : 1.3.2.103
ModelNr: WIZA200
YESSS!! :lol: Please i need your ROM backup can you put it on FTP?
your the man :wink:
thanksss
yes pls upload
would have been great if you used a smaller SD card for the backup, anyway its a start for many who want the dutch vario rom.

Making the Backup
Hi all,
I'm trying to make a backup of my MDA myself before flashing a new ROM.
When connecting my MDA to the USB cable while holding the camera button I get the three colours screen and my Windows XP detects a new 'USB Device' and tries to install a driver for it.
It detects the MDA in a different way than when connecting it normally. When connecting it in this way, no driver is found.
I don't know if this is related, but when running the romupdate_115.exe, it takes a while until I get the program screen and in the list of ports, the USB is not present.
What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Vario:Invalid Vendor ID (Error 294):switching from Dutch ROM

Hello everyone!
Yesterday I got T-mobile MDA Vario from T-mobile Ben NL. Actually I really need to switch from original pre-installed all Dutch into English. I tried already to download and to install some upgrades but non of them worked, instead responding with the following error: Invalid Vendor ID (Error 294).
Does it mean that my MDA is locked somehow and can not be upgraded without some unlocker or there is some other reason for that error? Actually this is my first MDA, so there might be some unclearness for me..
Thank you very much in advance for your possible thoughts.
Kind regards,
Michael
Ok, I have followed the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33796&highlight=lockiwiz and the problem is solved. Now I use UK version of ROM.
I've been trying for a couple of hours now, but it doesn't work here. I'm switching from English to Dutch. Tried Lokiwiz, Awizard and TyphoonNBFTool now. First two: no effect. The latter: file read error after I start the update process. Any clues?

iPaq HP 6515 from Spanish to English

Hello,
Please I have a little problem that I would like to be advised. I have an iPaq HP hw 6515 the original language is in Spanish and I would like to change it to English. I have downloaded several English ROM from HP support sites and some other sites. But none of them seems to be working. I try flashing in Bootloader mode and sometimes it begins flashing and stops at 1% sometimes 0%. Phone now tries powering on and then goes into bootloader mode.
I tried flashing back the original Spanish ROM and it gives me Error 640 after several minutes at 0.2%. Please is there anything like CID unlock for this phone model? Or what is the best procedure that I can use to successfully flash this phone.
Please I need some advise and guidance.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply but the post was too late for me and now the phone is ok but no radio can be found on the phone hence no network when sim is inserted. I was still finding some difficulties in updating it. So I saw in a forum that I can flash only CE OS so I did so. Now the phone has successfully updated to English ROM but there is no radio.
Can you please show or guide me how I can flash the radio?
Thanks in advance.
