How to upgrade from WM5 TO WM6

To upgrade your prophet to WM6 I recommend that you first of all downgrade to the NVID version of WM5 AKU2.2 and get the latest Active Sync:


1. Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe YOU CAN USE Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp INSTEAD OF NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 ROM...
2. After it has been downloaded get the latest Active Sync from Microsoft.com
3. Install active sync, you might need to reboot
4. When your computer has rebooted, run the file from step No 1 . Follow the steps, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait.
5. When you have done this, your pda will reboot. After it comes with the welcome to windows mobile screen,"Tap Here To Begin",JUST LEAVE IT. In fact don't touch your device before the next steps are finished.
6. Now download one of the WM6 versions( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1279985&postcount=1 )
7. Now find a file named Upgrade.bat,and run it.(you don't have to run Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp,as you have already downgraded to AKU2.2)
8. Wait until the upgrade finishes(usually takes 12-15minutes)..WAIT WAIT WAIT
9. A message will be displayed in the dos box,and it will say that the upgrade is finished etc....etc...,now you HAVE to HARD RESET,to finish the upgrade and enjoy you new WM6!



How to downgrade from WM6 TO WM5
The downgrade process from WM6 to WM5 is pretty simple. All you have to do is to downgrade to WM5 NVID and after that upgrade to the WM5 you want:

1. Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU 2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exeYOU CAN USE Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp INSTEAD OF NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 ROM...
2. After it has been downloaded get the latest Active Sync from Microsoft.com.. Simply search for "Active Sync"
3. Install active sync, you might need to reboot
4. When your PC is ready run the NVID file you downloaded in step1 and follow the guide, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait
5. When its done downgrading to the NVID WM5 rom, you prophet will reset and you can upgrade to the version of WM5 you want.

NOTICE
If you use a different AKU 2.2 ROM(like PDAViet Temp),you may have two EXEs in the folder you extracted.Be careful and use the one that is made for your device:
FILENAME G3.EXE
is for G3 devices:IPL x.xx.0000, SPL x.xx.000.0 (this is shown when you reset)

FILENAME G4.EXE
is for G4 devices:IPL x.xx.0001, SPL x.xx.000.1 (this is shown when you reset)


RECOVERING FROM ERROR IN STEP 8 WM5->WM6
1. Don't panic
2. Don't panic
3. Unplug the phone
4. Reset with stylus,and keep the Camera Button pressed.
5. A 3 color screen will appear(Bootloader Screen)
6. Connect your device with your PC,and run the NVID(no vendor) WM5 rom.
7. The device will be resetted after RUU(rom update utility)finishes
8. Repeat the WM6 upgrade,from STEP 5..


How to switch or upgrade/downgrade between WM6 versions(for example PDAViet->Trueneytral)
1. First you have to downgrade to WM5 AKU2.2 using the WM6->WM5 guide(some say that you don't have to do that,but i believe that it's better to downgrade first rather than making a simple overwrite)
2. Now follow STEP 5 of the WM5->WM6 guide


Device doesn't connect to PC after flash
If your device doesn't connect to your PC after flash,just enter bootloader(press camera button+while pressing soft reset and hold,until a tri-color screen shows up),and flash the NoVendor WM5 Rom: http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe .Then repeat the whole process...


----------------------------------------------------------

KEEP IN MIND:

UPGRADING CAN BE DANGEROUS,YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE

DO NOT RESTORE BACKUPS FROM ANY ROM OTHER THAN THE ONE IT WAS CREATED ON

THERE IS NO "BEST WM6 ROM",THE BEST IS THE ONE THAT WORKS BEST FOR YOU

(part of the guide is taken from Da9L's guide,in the WM6 Rom Collection)

Ok guys I am having a huge problem. I tried to upgrade to WM6 but when running the RUU and changing the rom, it encountered an error saying the nbf file cannot be installed on my pda phone and now my phone is stuck(i think permanantly) on the bootloader screen.

No matter what I do to try to fix this, IE: restart device, power down by removing battery, try to run the RUU again, nothing helps. Its is really stuck and I really need this cell phone.

PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN.

I followed the instructions carefully, and my phone (Qtek S200) seemed to boot with WM6.0

However, after aligning screen, it tried to initialize the phone with some extended roms, a procedure which failed, and I had to soft reset.

After reboot, it seems to work fine.

Is it? :confused:

EDIT: Another thing I noticed is that keyboard is in THAI !!! How can I make US the default? Olso, I have Resco keyboard GR edition. Will this work with WM6?

Is this G3 only, or both?
I'm asking, because in PDAviet's temp file there are two different rom updaters, but in the file linked above there is only one.

Another thing I noticed, is that it looses pairing with my bt handsfree...

I am making the pairing, and works fine. However, when at night I am shutting off my hf in order to save battery, the next morning the pairing is gone.

Any solution to this?

Hello guys, tanks for a so nice job !
I would like to have more information about the choice of ROM.
I don't want any special feature, just the row wm6.
no programs added, no tweaky today, no bugs, no battery problem, etc etc
which one would fit that the best ?
thanks ;)

Absolutely! I have tryied with all the different WM6's on this WIKI. All work fine, although the SMART1 is the fastest. It has been tweaked for speed with standard appearance.
The others also work fine - but have (in my opinion) some good/great looks and extra features.
Remember to follow the intructions for upgrade!

Have fun:-)

So what do I do when the following occurs:

- After step 1. the XDA goes to the tri-colour screen and the RUU complains about communication error with the XDA

- Trying the Prophet_PV_Temp RUU crashes upon attempting to connect to the XDA with a Windows MFC error.

Any help would be appreciated.

Let me guess, you're using MS Vista? It won't work, try a RUU NVID instead.

Hi, yes to Vista, but also I tried RUU NVID.
Do I need XP for the RUU NVID, because I have RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe

Also thanks for the fast answer.

mentioned many times in this forum. you probably have not done enough hard resets between the 2 steps.

Do this: copy the 2 cab files: Cert_SPCS.cab & EnableRapi.cab in the folder of 2nd step into the PPC, and run them individually; then repeat Step 2.

If you have followed exactly all the steps in the wiki, (sticky message at the top of the forum), and do not touch the screen after step 1 (even though you are asked by the screen to tap screen to set up), and have done Hard Resets, you should not run into this problem.

HOpe it helps.

That depends on what version of IPL and SPL you have. If you have followed this forum threads, you might have upgraded to IPL 2.20 and SPL 2.20, then you cannot go back to the Asia ROM of 2.15. But if you did not touch the IPL/SPL, (check when booting, see the words on the left upper corners), you should be able to do so. If not too successful, try PDAViet Temp step 1 and subsequent try the Asia ROM.

Good luck.

My current SPL and OS for my WM5 is as follows...
SPL 2.20.000
OS 2.20.7.34

My current problem with this ROM is that when the battery at <40%, the unit tends to soft reset and can't boot up until there is an external power supply/charging state is applied. Anyway to overcome this?

Cludyfa, what a great job you've done! Thanks by tons! I just want to share my experience with a problem I did not find in the forum.

* Problem: I was receiving the message "Cannot Execute the Specified Program" when running the upgrade_rom.bat file in step2 of the process of upgrading to WM6 PDAViet 4.0.0.0.6 Touch. :(

* Solution: I copied the source installation folder to the root directory of my hard drive and ran the upgrade_rom.bat file as instructed. It worked fine! :D

* Apparent cause: I had the folder under a long path name and MS-DOS has problems to handle that. A shorter and simpler path name solved the problem.

Can any Prophet upgraded to wm6 provided that it is aku 2.2 (and following instruction carefully:) )? I have a vodafone variation of the Prophet. And do the updates posted overwrite radio and SPL part of the ROM? As I understand these files are specific to the local operator and can render my phone unusable? Can anyone clarify this?

:D You are REAL joker man! Of course you should try WM5 first, because otherwise, you wouldn´t be glad that you can use beautiful WM6! It is like windows 98 against windows XP;)
OK, so you don´t have to try WM5, but because there is a lot of Wm6 versions around and every single one is a bit different and works differently also on devices which are the same, it is better to use WM5 for a let´s say month - to be sure how it works, what is the normal battery drainage and so. Than you may switch to WM6 and enjoy touchFLO and other cool things and see if this WM6 ROM you´ve flashed is working properly.
I know, it is a waste of time, so try PDAVIET 4.0.0.0.6 - Touch straight and maybe U will not notice any problems (most of the users of this ROM have no problems, just a few have extreme battery drain - I am unfortunately one of them:mad: ) So give it a try. WM6 Roms are nicer, quicker and more powerful than WM5. Thats all. It is a madness to flash WM5, if U won´t have problems with battery on WM6. Bye

After attempting the Hard Reset combo again, I get the question and I press the green key once...
nothing happens (left it for three hours)... pressing the green key again, it immediately reports the format has completed and attempts to boot-on and hangs at the initial screen...

This happened with two WM6 ROMS: PDAVIet v4..0.0.6 & Fantastic Mobiz

The only issue I'm having here is the last Hard Reset part... I just can't seem to get it right...

To do a Hard Reset, there is a tricky point here: You have to wait approximately 4 seconds before you should press the Green Key. If you press too early, nothing will happen even if you left the phone idle for hours. I normally count to 5 before I press the Green key, and you will notice that it immediately responds by reporting the format completed. That is why you got it after 3 hours idle.

The reason why it hangs at the initial screen could be that you have mistakenly done some steps wrong at the start. Follow the instructions very very carefully by reading every words, and you'll be successful. And don't add your own steps, even though you firmly believe that there is nothing wrong. Remove your memory card being doing anything also counts.

I have pumped into exactly what you have been in the last 3 months for a dozen times.

That sounds as if you don't press comm and camm button together, but only the camm button. This is how it is done:

Press Comm and Camm button at the same time and hold them pressed. Push the stylus in the resethole at the bottom. Release stylus. A white textmessage appears on a black screen, instructing you to press the green receive button. Release C&C buttons, press the green receive button. An extra text is displayed telling you that there is some formatting hes been done.

Finished.... continue the setup of your device to your own liking!

Hi all,

I have a S200 G4 and I upgrade from WM5 to WM6 Fantastic B4 and it’s working fine but I still have some questions:

00 - Bluetooth is not working;

01 – The weekdays are looking strange as “” but only at calendar and clock/alarm;

02 – How to upgrade IPL from 2.09.0001 to a new one?

03 – How to upgrade GSM from 02.47.21 to a new one?

04 – How to upgrade OS from 4.0.0.0 to a new one?

05 – Where to find Portuguese(BR) Auto complete and Orthography (I had to WM5)?

It all went well except for the fact that as i tried to restore my PIM backup (made with sbp backup in WM5) i got the init_tray.exe error and ... it is now impossible to sync my outlook 2003 contacts back to the S200 due to "not enough memory in the device".
As i tap on "contacts" on the lower right corner .. it simply doesn't open...
Should I go back to WM5 ?
Any hint on this ?

This is typical when you don't make a PROPER HARD RESET after upgrading. You can still do that. Use "Clear Memory" and type 1234.
One advice, take your time and read "around" on tis forum, there is a lot written about this kind of essentials. Not always structured an easy to find, but again, take your time and prepare yourself... GOOD LUCK!...

Method 1:

Press Camm & Comm button simultaniously. Keep them pressed.
Punch the little hole at the bottom with the stylus for a second or two.
Release the stylus (keep the buttons pressed!)
A withe text-message appears on a black screen, telling you to press the receive button
While keeping the C&C buttons, press the green receive button.
Then release the two C&C buttons, but keep the Receive button pressed.
The message on the screen tells you some more about formatting.
Release every button, you are done!
Start to set and arrange your device, it is as innocent as a virgin... (If she is "untouched" depends of the ROM of your choice...:rolleyes: )

Method 2:
Open "Today => Settings => Clear Storage"
Enter "1234" as instructed
Hit "YES" in the bottom-bar
Done, start to deflower your honey!


PS I gave this post a clear title, in the future it should be easy to find with a search.

Some good advice: DON'T use any backup tool to import your WM5 contacts to WM6. There can be a difference in the file location. This will give you trouble sooner or later. Only use the backup utilities with one and the same ROM.

Hey All,
Trying to upgrade to wm6 but ahve had quite a few compatability issues.
Did the :
". Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693...24721_NVID.exe YOU CAN USE Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp INSTEAD OF NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 ROM..."
With no hassles at all .

Then as per the instructions i downloaded one of the updates and there is the rub:

Prophet_4.0.0.0.4_PV.zip,gives these errors(in the dos window)
1. Sleep4 is not recognised as an internal or external command
2. Pdel.exe is not recognised as an internal or external command
3. CeCopy is not recognised as an internal or external command
4. CrossBows OsRoms Sleep4 is not recognised as an internal or external command

I,ve tried several that i could download and all give the same result.
Am i'm trying to update with the wrong software or what?

Tanks in advance for any help you can give me !

Hi,
I've been trying to upgrade my Imate Jamin to WM6 but the upgrade DOS window gives and error and doesn't update.

the Imate (original firmware, G4) is connected to active sync as a guest OK.

I tried to do a hard reset by following the guide on this forum but it won't work, can it be because I've removed the camera (due to work not allowing cameras on site). I would have thought the camera button should do the same job!

Never mind, sorted the hard reset out, I didn't keep the reset button in long enough. Sorry

After this, when I wanted to sync with the pc there was a problem:
There is not enough free memory on your device to sync information. Close programs...

I've found my solution. When you hard reset after the upgrade is done, wait about 3 to 5 seconds then press the send key (make call). It worked with me, after some deep research....(someone in this forum said that he/she wold count to 5 before pressing "send".).
So, i hope this will help you.

You better give some objective details, we are here to help you with technical problems, not to give psychological aid.

So, back to things that do matter: flashing your device is a delicate process, many things can go wrong for obscure reasons, don't get too upset but just repeat the whole exercise. Make sure your PC and Prophet are not used for anything else. Quit Messenger etcetera and leave things to theirselves. SUCCES!

I'd appreciate it if somebody helped me out ... There's practically nobody else who knows.
This is like my last resort. Let's hope it turns out to be one that helps.

Followed the guide to upgrade the S200 to WM6 using RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe file, no problem at all.
Then installed Gullum's ProphetTouch IX ROM - all went smooth except for I was unable to open the contacts. As explained here, it was a matter of a wrong performed hard reset, so I flashed the device again, re-installed the ROM and did a correct hard reset (pressed the call button at the question screen). I got a message of "format is completed" and then got stuck at Qtek "Keep the world in one" screen. it just doesn't move any further from there.

Here's what it shows at the screen:

IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.20.0001
GSM 02.47.21
OS 9.0.0.0

The question is: how to re-flash it again? When I enter the tri-color boot screen, I'm unable to connect it to the ActiveSync as it does not recognize the device (just because it must be switched on). What to do now?

thanks in advance

4. When your computer has rebooted, run the file from step No 1 . Follow the steps, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait.

Sorry but in which state should the device be?
Should it be in bootloader mode? Or just connected via Activesync and standing by? Additionally, should I make some settings to Activesync, such as untick "allow usb connections" etc?

Please help!

Is shouldn't matter, just follow the widespread instructions. Make sure you first flash your device with a NoVendorID WM5 ROM. There are circulating a few on the site (NVID). This brings your device in a predictable state, from there flash the WM6 Rom of your choice! Succes!!

the only problem faced, which i think most people have it, is bluetooth and the wlan. can't seems to enable them sometimes. i've looked thru the forum, some said that is a hardware prob, hence, nothing can be done. but i personally think that it isn't, coz they can be enabled sometimes. let's hope a fix can be found. sounds like a dreadful disease waiting to be eliminated.

Hi all!

I have tried to upgrade my XDA Neo to the new gullum Touch X ROM (done this before, as I was upgrading from Touch VII).
I succesfully managed to downgrade using the ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4.
Then, after the reboot, I tried to upgrade, launching the upgrade.bat, from C:\X\.
It started working, then I got an error message on the PDA, something like: repplog *something* failed.
I touched the OK button in the right-upper corner, but then it stuck in between. The process stoped on my computer too.
After that, I've done a soft reset, but my PDA stuck into the ROM launching part, showing the blue O2 background, and displaying:
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
GSM 02.19.21
OS 10.0.0.0

And it doesn't respond even to a hard reset (loads the same)!

What should I do??? HELP, pls!!!

Thx!

:confused: How to upgrade from WM5 TO WM6

To upgrade your prophet to WM6 I recommend that you first of all downgrade to the NVID version of WM5 AKU2.2 and get the latest Active Sync:


1. Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe YOU CAN USE Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp INSTEAD OF NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 ROM...
2. After it has been downloaded get the latest Active Sync from Microsoft.com
3. Install active sync, you might need to reboot
4. When your computer has rebooted, run the file from step No 1 . Follow the steps, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait.
5. When you have done this, your pda will reboot. After it comes with the welcome to windows mobile screen,"Tap Here To Begin",JUST LEAVE IT. In fact don't touch your device before the next steps are finished.
6. Now download one of the WM6 versions( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1279985&postcount=1 )
7. Now find a file named Upgrade.bat,and run it.(you don't have to run Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp,as you have already downgraded to AKU2.2)
8. Wait until the upgrade finishes(usually takes 12-15minutes)..WAIT WAIT WAIT
9. A message will be displayed in the dos box,and it will say that the upgrade is finished etc....etc...,now you HAVE to HARD RESET,to finish the upgrade and enjoy you new WM6!



How to downgrade from WM6 TO WM5
The downgrade process from WM6 to WM5 is pretty simple. All you have to do is to downgrade to WM5 NVID and after that upgrade to the WM5 you want:

1. Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU 2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exeYOU CAN USE Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp INSTEAD OF NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 ROM...
2. After it has been downloaded get the latest Active Sync from Microsoft.com.. Simply search for "Active Sync"
3. Install active sync, you might need to reboot
4. When your PC is ready run the NVID file you downloaded in step1 and follow the guide, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait
5. When its done downgrading to the NVID WM5 rom, you prophet will reset and you can upgrade to the version of WM5 you want.

NOTICE
If you use a different AKU 2.2 ROM(like PDAViet Temp),you may have two EXEs in the folder you extracted.Be careful and use the one that is made for your device:
FILENAME G3.EXE
is for G3 devices:IPL x.xx.0000, SPL x.xx.000.0 (this is shown when you reset)

FILENAME G4.EXE
is for G4 devices:IPL x.xx.0001, SPL x.xx.000.1 (this is shown when you reset)


RECOVERING FROM ERROR IN STEP 8 WM5->WM6
1. Don't panic
2. Don't panic
3. Unplug the phone
4. Reset with stylus,and keep the Camera Button pressed.
5. A 3 color screen will appear(Bootloader Screen)
6. Connect your device with your PC,and run the NVID(no vendor) WM5 rom.
7. The device will be resetted after RUU(rom update utility)finishes
8. Repeat the WM6 upgrade,from STEP 5..


How to switch or upgrade/downgrade between WM6 versions(for example PDAViet->Trueneytral)
1. First you have to downgrade to WM5 AKU2.2 using the WM6->WM5 guide(some say that you don't have to do that,but i believe that it's better to downgrade first rather than making a simple overwrite)
2. Now follow STEP 5 of the WM5->WM6 guide


Device doesn't connect to PC after flash
If your device doesn't connect to your PC after flash,just enter bootloader(press camera button+while pressing soft reset and hold,until a tri-color screen shows up),and flash the NoVendor WM5 Rom: http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe .Then repeat the whole process...


----------------------------------------------------------

KEEP IN MIND:

UPGRADING CAN BE DANGEROUS,YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE

DO NOT RESTORE BACKUPS FROM ANY ROM OTHER THAN THE ONE IT WAS CREATED ON

THERE IS NO "BEST WM6 ROM",THE BEST IS THE ONE THAT WORKS BEST FOR YOU

(part of the guide is taken from Da9L's guide,in the WM6 Rom Collection)

DISable "Alllow USB connection" in the ActiveSync connerction-settings box, and then connect your device with your PC. NOw it connects directly as USBdevice, and you can run the RUU (again).

First tip: READ BEFORE YOU WRITE! This question is asked AND answered over as thousand times on this forum. It is pretty easy to use the search-option first. That way this forum threads are staying a bit more readable (as the are cluthered already).

But the answer to your question: make a proper Hard Reset, as you should always do after upgrading your OS.

I upgraded by instruction to wm6 everything perfect, but everybody i talk to
tells me that my microfon level is to low e.g. they can't here me well.

Is that a sideeffect of changing to wm6 and can be solved or did something break in the mean time?

But now, in Connection tab, there's no icon USB To PC, so I cant uncheck that "Advanced Function" (it's funny, not Advanced at all, only make trouble to user).
Any one have a solution for this?

Hi there.

First of all Happy 2008 for all!

I've got a problem when updating my prophet.
When I try to run ....024721_NVID.exe, although my device is syncronized with activesync, it keeps me showing an error (224:connection error).
I've rebooted both my pc and prophet and i can't get it to work.
Can anyone explain to me what am i doing wrong...?

Another question, Should I use PDAViet_Temp to do the downgrade or the 24721_NVID.exe?
Then i just need to choose the WM6 Rom i want, right?

Thank you all, keep up the good work.

Hello!

I have tried flashing my XDA Neo using the old method. I have followed the instructions to the LETTER. I can successfully apply NVID WM5 but when i try to further upgrade to WM6.1 (shadow 2.0 and s4v.19701.01 were tried) my "Prophet" doesn't boot. I have also followed the hard reset instructions (required after the last flash) to the letter and it doesn't seem to help. I am stuck at the bootloader screen.

Although I can revert to the WM5 I would like to have the WM6.1...

Could it be a problem that I have not hardSPL-ed the device?

My versions are:
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
OS 2.20.7.34

Tnx,
Marko

You have not HardSPLed your device... You have a G4 device, so you need to use the G4 HardSPL files.

Thank you very much for the speedy reply.

Since I have spent quite some time on the forum to try and comprehend the basic stuff, this requirement for hardSPL seemed to have eluded me. It is especially hard to find a clear/comprehendable post about G4 CID locked Prophets and what to do with them - everybody just says you can unlock a G3 but not G4; and this is where it ends. Maybe this hardSPL requirement could be added to the first post to aid noobs like me?:D Or am I just plain stupid!?:confused:

TBH, the information is a bit confusing...

What HardSPL does, is circumvent the CID checks, so in effect your device becomes CID unlocked. That lets you flash other ROMs.

Nobody (almost nobody, that is...:D) is plain stupid. I guess your flash-adventure has started just recently and you don't have any experience with "the old way".

the difference between Old and New is not only the procedure, but the whole technique. You can't choose, it is the way the ROM is build that determines how to flash. So, you just picked the wrong method (if you persist on using the Old Method, you can modify the ROM you chose, but that requires some understanding).

I think it is save to say that all recent and future ROMs will aquire the new flashing technique. So, my advise to all starters: forget about the fact that we once flashed in a different way, unless you want to try one of the earlier ROMs out of curiousity. Those predecesters are not as stable as the new ones, so there is no logical reason to flash them.

The most important condition to the new method (RUU) is bypassing the CID check.
That can be achieved by manipulating the SPL of your device. If you are planning on flashing only once in a while, you can use SoftSPL or JumpSPL.
That software will bypass the SPL, and you will flash into the blind while your device is showing a nervebreaking white screen. But your SPL will stay untouched.

Or, when you think you will flash your device more frequently, you can use HardSPL. You have to flash your Prophet with a special RUU using the white-screen method of SoftSPL. This flash will only alter your SPL. With this altered SPL it is possible to flash any other RUU based ROM straight away.

If you need the normal SPL back again, flash an official ROM, those RUU packages are complete with SPL, Splahscreen and RadioROM beside the OS-part.

I think the main idea behind Hard/SoftSPL is to allow other ROMs to be flashed. Without it, the new ROM will not boot...

How to upgrade from WM5 TO WM6

4. When your computer has rebooted, run the file from step No 1 . Follow the steps, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait.


I stuck at 80% precisely and I let this way about 9 hours.

The dialog box says

ERROR [326] : INVALID COMMAND

This NBF file can not be use to your PDA Phone. Please check your NBF file.

IPL : 1.00
SPL 2.G4.4PDA

How come ? What should I do ?

PIN may be SIM or device. If it's on the device, you won't get it after a reset.

Any contacts you had on device will have been wiped, and the same goes for any network connections. Basically, any data gets wiped when you flash a new ROM.

What ROM did you flash?

You need HARDSPL your device first.

or you will get stuck in boot mode.


make it sure which kind of device that you have.

G3 or G4.

Your SPL Information should be 2.G3.4PDA for G3 Device or 2.G4.4PDA for G4 Device, in order to try new ROM

Take a look thread from Duato too

This guide is for the Prophet. The Prophet does not have a keyboard!

What device do you actually have?

:( I have a problem. Read almost every post in this thread, especially the first post :-)

I wanted to change my ROM, i do what it is said to do, but I am stuck in the 3 color bootup screen:
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.20.0001

I want to make hardspl from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2141436&postcount=188

but when i open upgrade.bat, it is says, that there is no device connected.

I also perform a Hard Reset of the device after the unsuccessful upgrade.
What should I do?

It should be available on the FTP server. See the wiki (here (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_ROMs)) for a list of the ROMs on the wiki.

Also, read the newer WM6 Upgrade guide that's a sticky at the top of this forum.

How to upgrade from WM5 TO WM6

To upgrade your prophet to WM6 I recommend that you first of all downgrade to the NVID version of WM5 AKU2.2 and get the latest Active Sync:


1. Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe YOU CAN USE Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp INSTEAD OF NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 ROM...
2. After it has been downloaded get the latest Active Sync from Microsoft.com
3. Install active sync, you might need to reboot
4. When your computer has rebooted, run the file from step No 1 . Follow the steps, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait.
5. When you have done this, your pda will reboot. After it comes with the welcome to windows mobile screen,"Tap Here To Begin",JUST LEAVE IT. In fact don't touch your device before the next steps are finished.
6. Now download one of the WM6 versions( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1279985&postcount=1 )
7. Now find a file named Upgrade.bat,and run it.(you don't have to run Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp,as you have already downgraded to AKU2.2)
8. Wait until the upgrade finishes(usually takes 12-15minutes)..WAIT WAIT WAIT
9. A message will be displayed in the dos box,and it will say that the upgrade is finished etc....etc...,now you HAVE to HARD RESET,to finish the upgrade and enjoy you new WM6!



How to downgrade from WM6 TO WM5
The downgrade process from WM6 to WM5 is pretty simple. All you have to do is to downgrade to WM5 NVID and after that upgrade to the WM5 you want:

1. Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU 2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exeYOU CAN USE Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp INSTEAD OF NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 ROM...
2. After it has been downloaded get the latest Active Sync from Microsoft.com.. Simply search for "Active Sync"
3. Install active sync, you might need to reboot
4. When your PC is ready run the NVID file you downloaded in step1 and follow the guide, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait
5. When its done downgrading to the NVID WM5 rom, you prophet will reset and you can upgrade to the version of WM5 you want.

NOTICE
If you use a different AKU 2.2 ROM(like PDAViet Temp),you may have two EXEs in the folder you extracted.Be careful and use the one that is made for your device:
FILENAME G3.EXE
is for G3 devices:IPL x.xx.0000, SPL x.xx.000.0 (this is shown when you reset)

FILENAME G4.EXE
is for G4 devices:IPL x.xx.0001, SPL x.xx.000.1 (this is shown when you reset)


RECOVERING FROM ERROR IN STEP 8 WM5->WM6
1. Don't panic
2. Don't panic
3. Unplug the phone
4. Reset with stylus,and keep the Camera Button pressed.
5. A 3 color screen will appear(Bootloader Screen)
6. Connect your device with your PC,and run the NVID(no vendor) WM5 rom.
7. The device will be resetted after RUU(rom update utility)finishes
8. Repeat the WM6 upgrade,from STEP 5..


How to switch or upgrade/downgrade between WM6 versions(for example PDAViet->Trueneytral)
1. First you have to downgrade to WM5 AKU2.2 using the WM6->WM5 guide(some say that you don't have to do that,but i believe that it's better to downgrade first rather than making a simple overwrite)
2. Now follow STEP 5 of the WM5->WM6 guide


Device doesn't connect to PC after flash
If your device doesn't connect to your PC after flash,just enter bootloader(press camera button+while pressing soft reset and hold,until a tri-color screen shows up),and flash the NoVendor WM5 Rom: http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe .Then repeat the whole process...

I flashed all Prophet rom in XDA and I have a question: after Hard SPL - my O2 Neo G4 stilll appears IPL & SPL = *.001 ( it doesn't change to *.4PDA as the guide said ).

Is my O2 Neo a limited edition or something else like that ?
