SX66 Radio Upgrade - keep getting country code errors, help

[cruz610]

YES, I READ EVERYTHING ON WIKI
Unfortunately the wiki dev is now outdated; I successfully applied the official ROM update from siemens, and have tried just about every freaking variation in order to apply the 1.06.02 radio upgrade, but to no avail. Can someone who has done this please please please point me in the right direction? Thanks!

I was trying to upgrade the radio stack and had a heel of a time doing it. But I finally got it working. This is where I started:

I have siemens sx66 Cingular
It was:
Rom: 1.20.10
Date: 10/08/04
Radio 1.02.10
Protocol 1337.35
ExtRom 1.20.115

I installed the latest patch from siemens and then it was:
Rom: 1.33.10 WWE
Date: 1/21/05
Radio 1.02.10
Protocol 1337.35
ExtRom 1.33.110

It turns out you need to use the BaUpgradeUt.exe file from the source upgrade, the sx66 wont work with other radio stacks. It just gives you checksum errors. I got it working, and I'm attaching a radio stack update rar file. To install the radio stack on a sx66 with v1.33 just run the BaUpgradeUt.exe program in this rar file and follow direction on the screen.

This is what I tried before I got it working:

I am trying to install the radio rom and I'm getting errors. On the BA_FRA_BelDT_12202_558_10602_Ship version of 1.06.02 radio stack I get a checksum error. The operator and checksum fields are both blank when I run fix.bat. Here is the output of them. I added -v to get more info.

I thought the password looks like a date, so I changed the password the the create date of the file, that didn't work. I then decided to try a different radio rom. I grabbed the radio rom out of:
BA_WWE_BP_12200_169_10602_SHIP and tried it with that one. On that one I get a wrong password.
I tried searching for sx66 radio password on the search enging found nothing.
I tried BA_ITA_DT_12204_168_10602_ship radio stack same problem.
I'm beginning to think the checksum creation is different.
That's when I decided to use the source's version of BaUpgradeUt.exe . It complained because the HTCRUU.conf and HTCRUU.dll weren't there, I coppied those from the source as well, and VOILA!!! it worked like a charm!

HAPPY UPGRADING SX66ERS!!!!!!!

Can you tell me where you are getting this file and where this .rar file is?
