MDA III stuck in boot load.

---

I tried to upgrade my Tmobile MDA III with the ROM of O2 XDA IIs and it is now stuck in boot load. I was wanting to use the new rom to fix the bluetooth issues, But now I would just be happy if I can get it back to the factory defaults. This was the German flashed to English MDA III. If there is anyone who can help me Pleeeease! Thanks in advance to anyone who can reply or help.

Hi

RELEVANT TOOLS

XDAII USB Cradle
SD card with at least 32 MB memory (All data will be deleted during the process)
Multi-Port/USB TTY
PRE-PREPARATION

Backup all data on your device, because this process involves hard reset.
Kill ActiveSync (wcescomm.exe) by using task manager (Ctrl + Alt + Delete).
HERE WE GO

Go to bootloader mode (hold Power Button + Directional Pad + Reset Button)
Run Muti-Port/USB TTY (romupdate.exe)

Interesting I must say.

I was hoping that you might "please" spend so time and explain the Boot load for us all.

Unlike the extened rom were I have read enough about it and thus some what understand it, I have no understanding about the boot load on a PPC.

Would be nice of you, thanks

Reviving a dead MDAIII from Bootloader

---

I hear you brother! Thanks to XDADOM elsewhere on this website, I *finally* managed to revive my dead MDAIII tonight.

You will need this ROM PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP.exe (lurking somewhere on this website), xda3nbftool.exe and I also had ActiveSync 3.8 which may help.

The process to update is described elsewhere on this website, but as it's easy to get lost, here's how I did it:

Double click on the EXE file. Just before the upgrade starts, hop into Windows Explorer and try to locate the file radio_.nbf which will be in a TEMP folder somewhere on your hard disk (usually c:\Documents and Settings\YOURNAME\Local Settings\Temp)

Copy/Move all of these files into somewhere safe and memorable.

Fire up Notepad and cut and paste the following text and SAVE IT AS A .BAT file (NOT a TXT!!). Then run the attached batch file.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
xda3nbftool -x ms_.nbf ms_.nba 0x20040522
xda3nbftool -x nk.nbf nk.nba 0x20040521
xda3nbftool -x radio_.nbf radio_.nba 0x20040523

xda3nbftool -sd PH20B -sl WWE -so T-MOB005 ms_.nba
xda3nbftool -sd PH20B -sl WWE -so T-MOB005 nk.nba
xda3nbftool -sd PH20B -sl WWE -so T-MOB005 radio_.nba

xda3nbftool -c -u NK.nba
xda3nbftool -c -u ms_.nba
xda3nbftool -c -u Radio_.nba

xda3nbftool -x ms_.nba ms_.nbf 0x20040522
xda3nbftool -x nk.nba nk.nbf 0x20040521
xda3nbftool -x radio_.nba radio_.nbf 0x20040523
del *.nba
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now cancel out of the Update, then navigate back to where you just copied those files. Run the file BaUpgradeUt and hopefully your MDAIII should be back to factory settings as an "imate" after about 10-20 minutes.

Once again, THANK YOU to XDADOM for his time, patience and efforts in helping me out.
