I am trying to upgrade my Siemens SX56 to ROM 3.17 from Yorch.net,
I did the following:
1. Backed up the current ROM using OSImageTool.exe
2. Downloaded ROM 3.17 from Yorch.net in a .exe file format
3. Clicked on the downloaded .exe and I get the following error message:
Cannot find the ROM image to upgrade your Pocket PC. Please download and try again.
Please help, I am a newbie!

1st mistake...DONT USE AN EXE to upgrade. Use the sd card method. Otherwise you will be screwed.

When I select zipped NK.nb1 (SD-card flashing) I get the following error:
./mkrom.sh: ../../kitchen.local/mkrom-inc.sh: No such file or directoryno files for configid 26220739Cannot fit files in given sectionsError splitting files
:shock:
From what you posted it appears theres a problem within the Kitchen,
try back later! :(

Now the log shows: adding: NK.nb1zip I/O error: No space left on device
zip error: Output file write failure (write error on zip file)I'm guessing that the kitchen needs to have old results purged occasionally (possibly manually?).

Strange I used it earlier to get stock ROMs and I did all of them with no problem. Hmmm

You can use the XDA developers Special Edition ROM v1.2 its based on the same ROM.
XDA developers Special Edition ROM v1.2 can be found at:
http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe

Ignore my last post. I went back and was able to cook a 4.00.16 ROM, so it's not a server disk space issue (like the error message made me think).
And I just cooked a 3.17.03 ROM. Guess it might be back.

Thanks a lot guys, I'm still trying with no success. :x
I just realized Vallerhum has the setup I want, I also have a Siemens SX56 on ATT. Where did you get your ROM?

I got it from Jeff's kitchen before it went south. I am trying to get my own up for I have all of the ROMs to date.

Is your phone also unlocked?
How can I get your ROM? I am going to another country on Friday and need to unlock it before then so I can show off to my friends :P

No my phone is not unlocked. I am not planning on changing companies anytime soon but if you want to unlock it...just load the 3.17 rom or if you have ppc2002 just install the xda unlocker and then install the ppc2003 rom of your choice. However, always use the sd card method, dont use an .exe.

Thanks all for your help! :D
Now, I'm playing around with other stuff and seeing If my unlock was successfull.

That site is not a kitchen. It is for teaching how to do an SD card ROM upgrade. Where did you cook (or download) your ROM? Cooking is the customization of ROMs with other softwares.
