Hi,

I'm trying to flash my Wizard (T-Mobile Mda Vario to be exact) to WM6 ("SNN Edition Version 3.0 LITE"). And I'm stuck :(

Before I touched anything that was what I got:
IPL: 2.21.0001
SPL: 2.21.0001
GSM: 02.19.11
OS: 2.21.26

// Just after I got my Wizard I have used lokiwiz03a to be able to use it with my Orange SIM card, but after that I have hard reseted it.

Here's what I have done:

- I'm using a Windows XP computer

1. I took off the SIM card and SD card.

2. Turned on my Wizard and connected it via USB to computer (with the latest ActiveSync - don't know the version but I've just downloaded it from Microsoft site).

3. It has synchronized.
- my battery was 85% full

4. I've downloaded "Wizard Service Tool" and clicked the wide button on the top "Enable RAPI..." or something like that (at the black screen on the left it said that I should click this button before doing anything else with this program). Then I clicked "Device Info" to be sure that I have a G4 Wizard.

5. I have unplugged the Wizard's USB (I don't really know why, but I've been nervous).

6. Then plugged it again and waited until the ActiveSync has synchronized.

7. I've used HardSPL as told in "Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies" - everything came fine. I got the white screen and after my device has restarted I had:
IPL 2.21.0001
SPL 2.21.olip
// I don't remember what OS version was, and I got no GSM line

8. I waited for ActiveSync to synchronize and then ran ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe (from "SNN Edition Version 3.0 LITE" - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=383524).

9. I did what the program had told me to do (it has been the same as HardSPL).

10. In one of the final steps (after clicking "UPDATE") it hadn't written any information about "Image Version" and "Language" in "To" section but I didn't take this as an issue and clicked "next".

11. I got the progress bar, my Wizard's screen went black.

12. Finally, on the PC I got the information saying that it can't accomplish the upgrade and I should get a newer version of RUU or something like that (I freaked out and closed that window :( without making a screen shoot). I didn't get even 1% (I had 0) but I've seen the progress bar.

What I have now on my Wizard are three colored bars on my screen. In the top right corner it's written "RUU", in the bottom left "USB". I also have "IPL 2.21.0001" and "SPL 2.21.olip" written on the bars.

Please tell me what should I do now?
Should I unplug my Wizard's USB from PC?
Should I click any button on my Wizard?
Do I already have a brick or is there a chance for me?

Please help.

Thanks in advance,
Alex(ander)

From the "Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies" guide, download the Mun RUU and use that. Extract it somewhere and paste the nk.nbf file from the ROM you wish to use and it should be ok. If you reset your wizard it will boot in WM normally. There's nothing wrong with it.

Thank you very much. You gave me hope :)

I'll do what you've said when I calm down.

EDIT//
Man, that's great. I have the WM6 :)

Thanks a lot again
