pls read wiki
you need to formate the device
camera+recoder button thing

i did exactly that and had usb come up on screen but still no joy.
Cheers

hey
regarding the the maupgradeutnoid.exe, when your using it for the vry first time, you have to disable activesync first, put your device into bottloader mode, and put it ine the cradle... you could here a sound, wait till the device would be recognize and wait till a popup message telling you that the new device installed is ready to use and that's the time where you run the maupgradeutnoid.exe otherwise you'll keep on just getting that message that the upgarde is finished, well actually nothing has happened.
since, its your first time attempt of upgrading to wm5, you can use baupgrade.exe but be sure you have set the corect operator for your device. to know what is your operator info, just transfer the getdeviceinfo.exe to your device and run it, this .exe will generate devicedata.txt found in the windows directory of your device. tranfer it to your pc and read it from there, in my case I have an imate, my operator is CDL_01, remember this coz you will neede this when your upgrading to wm5.
in any rom that you can download in this site, there is an included bat file, setoperator.bat, and enter you operator info, after that your ready to run baupgradeut.exe with no problem... read the wiki for better understanding.. alwaysssssssssss read..............

pda2k No Radio Upgrade No answer in WIKI

My wife has a pda2k that the phone quit working on, the pda functions are fine. I was able to upgrade the rom and ext rom but when I try to upgrade the radio it always fails. I have been all over this site and the web nothing has worked to flash the radio. When the flash progarm runs I can see the rom and ext rom versions but nothing is displayed for the radio. I have tried all versions of the roms I have found. Always the same the radio fails, I had to remove the radio rom from the dir. to get the others to update, I then tried the radio alone several times, several different waysand it always fails with various errors.
Thanks for any help.
Husband with a ticked wife please help!
hey,
put ruu.dll, radio_.nbf and MaUpgradeUt_noID in a folder, and run the maupgradeut.exe file...this should upgrade the radio rom only, that is the gsm part.
let me knw whether it workd...
Did you follow the wiki radio upgrade only instructions ? if so what is the error?
I have tried both options listed above, the upgrade starts sits at 0% for several minutes then fails. I do not remember the exact error, this is what happens every time.
put ruu.dll, ruu.conf, radio_.nbf and MaUpgradeUt_noID in a folder, then put your device into bootloader mode by pressing power, reset, and record buttons at the same time, this combination of buttons will show "Serial" and bootloader version on your screen, then place it on the cradle, the "Serial" should change to "USB" then kill activesync (open task manager and kill rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe) then start MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and all should be fine
if an error pops up please let us know

This not working. I Has the same problem. It seems like HW problem. Can't update radio. Then BT address 00:00:00... And now it freez at startup always.
IMHO. This is bad Flash which died.
I am waiting for answer about a month an still haven't one.
SoftService is right, if this type of upgrade fails it may be a hardware issue
I created a directory with the files listed and this is the error message I recieved:
error 114: radio rom update error
Any Ideas?
Thanks
do you have a sx66?
Anybody here has Full flash from PH20B device?
I think fullflash will help us from that problem. But it will the question how to unlock device after this procedure.
And anybody know how to repair IMEI?
Is there hardware specialists?
MDAIIIUser,
Mine is labeled PDA2K. It has quit syncing now. It just seems to be dying a slow agonizing death, and it's taking me with it! I need my electronic brain back.
I have tried all the suggested steps repeatedly. I am getting nowhere. It seems to want to work, it just keeps erroring out.
Thanks.
I had yesterday some problems regarding radio upgrades, which can not be solved by WIKI, so :
my radio rom was TYPEII and the files for upgrade are TYPEI => It can not upgrade
Tryed radio 1.13 TYPEI with TYPEI files and NOID => error
then tryed radio 1.13.1 TYPEII with its TYPEII files and just copied into that dyrectory the NOID APP and it worked (i have just learned that MAUpgradeUT_NOID.exe works with TYPEII RUU.dll and RUU.conf)
I was surprised because i use NOID for upgrading my roms and the files are TYPEI

Few post upgrade questions

Hi guys!
I have a couple of questions.
Last week I performed WM2003SE to WM2005 upgrade on my BA. It comes from German T-Mob. I bought it second hand, so I guess that the ROM I found on it was loaded some way along the road (it was WWE, and my device has a German QWERTZ keyboard layout, meaning it originally had to come with some non-WWE ROM..right?)
When I bought it, it had O2 ìsoftwareî (thatís called extended ROM, right?) v1.31, Radio v1.06 and Protocol 1337.45.
I had some problems installing newest WM2003SE as I was getting error about wrong CID when running .exe update file, so I went for Helmiís 2005 pack. Later I realized I should just rename .exe to .zip and extract needed files from WM2003 .exe updates. I used BaUpgradeUt (of course failed due to the wrong CID) and MaUpgradeUt_noID.
Firstly I upgraded to Helmiís WM2005 (v5.04.09 WWE), but after finished upgrade I started getting some errors for some missing or corrupt executable files after device starts up (see the screenshots), which disappeared when I reinstalled 2005 (reinstalling it for the second time I got those 3 check boxes on a boot loader screen, which I didnít see when doing the installation for the first time..that could be the source of my problems after the first installation). Someway along those actions I also cleared my storage (with a tool provided in Helmiís ROM, that has a red recycle icon). After deleting storage items, I found many apps found on original Helmiís ROM missing (good..I didnít need those
Then I decided to update my radio from 1.05 to 1.16 and it went ok, after I managed to connect the device in boot loader mode to USB cradle.
- Now, I find it rather strange to have that color-striped boot loader screen still appearing when I boot my device. Shouldnít it be replaced with some WM default or ROM assigned bitmap?
- I used GetDeviceData to determine the exact data of my BA and prior to upgrade it gave me something like this:
PH20B WWE some_letter T-MOB102 followed by ROM and Radio version.
After the ROM update (2003SE to 2005) I got this as a result:
PH20B WWE A T%CID? 5.04.09. 1.06.00 % 4
Then I upgraded Radio...
PH20B WWE A T%CID? 5.04.09. 1.15.00 % 4
As you can see, T-MOB102 part disappeared and itís replaced with an unknown CID part. I guess thatís why I still see the boot loader colorful stripes when booting/soft resetting my device. Is it a big problem, as the device works fine? Is it a normal occurrence after using MaUpgradeUt_noID?
- That ìProtocolî version/number (1337.45 in my case)..can that be updated and what is it?
- After the upgrade I noticed that my phone is not recognized as a PPC any more, but as a computer instead. The problem is that now it offers less services over bluetooth (only Active Sync on Mac and Network Access Point on Windows). On Windows computer, I cannot send any files through btooth OBEX and itís very annoying. Is that a problem with bluetooth and WM2005 on these devices one could read about on forums? Any way to fix it? I must say that I havenít installed the newest bluetooth stack (how can I check what stack version do I have now?).
I hope you're still awake after reading this
Answer is simple http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
And you will receive the same answer whenever you ask beginner question
I appreciate your advice, however, you must know that although some of my questions were beginner questions not all of them were such and those still require direct answers rather than some generic answer you provided.
I read the 80% of the BA Wiki before posting here and I haven't found the answers I need.
For instance, I still don't know why those bootloader stripes are still present..or what happened to my CID part in device data. If it's messed up, how come it's working? If it's ok, why it's not mentioned on the Wiki?
You may correct me if I'm wrong, but after reading all of that, I still don't know wha't really included in the backup or why my SMS messages are still there after I performed a hard reset, but my e-mail settings are deleted...
Saying "Eat if you're hungry will not solve the problem of a hungry one".
In general, that approach of forwarding noobs or people with such questions to a first page of an ecyclopediae is not a solution.
You're right wiki isn't enough, there is a search! And let me told you a little secret - there is a google, (you know google dont you?)
After reading wiki you MUST realize that:
Bootloader - no way of removing stripes!
CID part - You didn't follow the step-by-step proccess in wiki. And because you are beginner you should follow the Helmi install procedure (or read through WM5-BA page) And what is more important you dont even know anything about CID (use google - it is in wiki but not in BA section)
+
Because its not important its not mentioned in BA wiki.
Read something about WM5 how it works and the differences between 2003SE. (Like a persistent storage) <- answer to your SMS and hardreset question. And use google to find more information rather than asking more question

My Qtek 9090 is completely empty

Hello
I write to you in search of HELP. It has happened to me what it is noticed in all around. When wanting to update my Qtek 9090 of W2003 to WM5 I have lost all the data (toasted). The only thing that works is the Bootloader (the screen shows “USB v.2 07”). A hard reset do not work.
How I can install the image of the WM5 from 0? Somebody can help me? Is there a program? I have tried it with the BaUpgradeUt.exe but it does not work since the PDA looks for the image (and this one this empty). I do not know what to do.
Thanks in advance,
Wing
read the wiki
did u read the wiki before trying the upgrade process? just download rom image and update again ur device, use maupgradeutnoid.exe instead of baupgrade..
How to use maupgradeutnoid.exe?
Hi borjok536
Thanks for the answer. I have used the wiki to run this process. I do not know what I did wrong but I did it
I have tried to use maupgradeutnoid.exe but I must confess that I do not know how to use it. I start in Bottloader modeand the program says that the device is going to be updated
from Device CE image version: (blank)
To: Device CE image version: (blank)
How do I say the program where to find the image (nk.nbf of 32 Mb)? Is it normal that the picture of the device in the program shows a Qtek S200 (PH20B1)?
Regards,
Oskar
Any new news??
Hello guys
I really need help. Someone has an idea?
Thanks.

You just place the nk.nbf file in the same directory as the exe file. whether you use the maupgradenoid.exe or the other one.
There is not another way to tell the executable where the nk.nbf file is.
C
No result
Hi cso5874
I have made this but the result is the same:
from Device CE image version: (blank)
To: Device CE image version: (blank)
Any other idea. Maybe I am not using the right program...
Regrads.
is this ur first time?
to update ur device? if you execute the update utility (baupgrade.exe or maupgradenoid.exe) and if u see the ceimage version is blank, just exit the upgrade utility and execute it again...
hey borjok536
i had the same problem.
The Upgrade utility didn't show any data of the Rominside the BA.
But just klicked on upgrade and it worked!
good for you..
, if you continue the update process even if the ceimage version doesn't appear, sometimes the update process will stop to n% ... sometimes it work like in ur case, but to avoid that problem you'd better exit the upgrade utility and execute it again...
Finally, the solution
Hi guys
The version is not shown because there is no version, the BA is empty. Finally I sented it to the Qtek tecnical service in Spain. They have put the old WM 2003 SE again (I want to know how )
So, I think I will try it again. How much time does the upgrade last? I have a message on the PC since 1 hour ago:
"Checking the information on your device... Please wait...
Please, don't disconnect your device from the PC or the power supply until the update is completed"
In the BA the Bootloader is shown. Should I wait more or the program seems not to work?
Thanks for your help!

Ok I see that you have a G4. Lokiwiz is a waste of your time since you have a G4.
Here is what you need to do:
Because you have a G4, you can't just flash a rom because of the DOC chip.
There are 3 ways I know of to flash a G4.
1. Download shelltools - install enablerapi.cab and cert_spcs.cab and reboot your device. connect with activesync and place the nk.nbf file of the rom of your choice in the shelltools directory and run shelltools and follow the directions in the readme. If you do it correctly, you will end up successfully flashing your device.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293480
2. Download SoftSPL and place the nk.nbf file of your choice in the RUU folder included and run SoftSPL and it is fully automated. It will call the RUU and your device will be flashed in about 7 minutes.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329147
3. Use the HardSPL(CID UNLOCK) and unlock your device prior to flashing. This will allow you to just flash roms at your leisure with no problems whatsoever from now on BUT it is still in developement so use at your own risk.

No problem... Now you're at the fun part. Add ons!!
add ons
when it comes to add ons,I was reading on the Rom Kitchen thread and and I couldn't see much more that could be added to the rom that Faris V5's nbf file.it seems to be one of thee most comprehensive files that I have come across. the only issue is that it runs a bit slow but it cool.I might just need to do some memory management.
other than that I would recommend the file.
do you have any other recommendations?
have u seen the article that microsoft wants xda dev... to remove all of its roms from the website?

I personally use the TNT.1437 TouchFlo and TNT.1437 Professional+HTC Home roms personally modified to have a 10MB page pool. They are quite fast and are almost 100% stable with only minor bugs that are barely noticible...

If you would like, I can speed up the performance of faria's rom also and then upload the new nk.nbf file for you to try. Just let me know.
speed
Yes, please.... speed it up for me. if there are any other applications (add ons) that you feel should be added to the nbf file then please add them.
i have already shared the nbf file with many guys at work. we would be grateful if you can assist.
one last thing, i noticed that there is a 3G icon under the comms manager. one of the guys said that we should not have any issues accessing 3G even if the phone didnt come with it. is it possible to use 3G on these phones?

You have to use SoftSPL, you can get it HERE
In this folder, you copy the "nk.nbf" of your favourite WM6 (and only this file), then start with "START-sSPL.exe" (make sure you're connected via ActiveSync).
When you read this here before, you know everything you need!
Probably you are not following the instructions and doing it correctly,try to go according to the guide,if it still doesn't work,it sometimes happens that SoftSPL fails,than you better do it through 'HardSPL'
