View Full Version : Using XDATOOLS on SX56

To unlock my device I installed the XDA Special Edition ROM on my SX56 by running the executable. My device is a PW10B1 (printed on the back of the device). Unfortunately, after installing the XDA ROM, my device information says the device is a PW10A1. Now this seems to be causing a problem. I want to get WM 2003 back on the device but running the AUTO update tool (Executable with the Wm20003 update) errors out saying that my device is a PW10A1 and not a PW10B1. First signs of panic.. Ok. So I decided to search for the original PPC2002 ROM for At&T and I found it. But its a .nbf file. So I downloaded XDATools hoping to write the image to the device memory or to the SD Card. However I cant seem to access the device from the Destination Browse Button of the XDATools App. The browse dialog that comes up does not include the "Mobile Device" listed under "My Computer". In my windows explorer I can see it listed. How do I get XDATools to wite it to the device rom directly?
Any help would be appreciated

If I cannot flash the XDA directly using XDAtools, are there some PPC 2002 ROM Executable Updates (At&T 2002) available that will bring my SX56 back to PW10B1?

Adaptrom will let me put the Wm2003 update on the phone but the problem is, it will leave the phone as a PW10A1 and not convert it to a PW10B1...I need to convert the ROM back to its original state.. I will try to put the original Image on an SD Card and see if I can boot off that..
