Lumpi - or anyone: 2 Quick Questions

---

All/Lumpi/Anyone:

First, thanks for a great site. I've managed to really appreciate the efforts that go into the work here and on the Wiki, and it's great.

My model: Wallaby TMobile US Original XDA


Current Info:

ROM: 4.01.16 ENG (Thanks to Lumpi's tasty kitchen)
ROM DATE: 02/04/04
Radio Version: 6.18.00
Protocol Version: 324e4


Desire/Objective:

I'd like to upgrade not only to the Windows Mobile 2003 SE, but I'd also like to update the RS to 6.25 (I'm in the US).

Problems:

(1) When I attempt to download the Rom (in EXE format, per Lumpi's kitchen), I cannot execute it as the errors start in the console window (ERROR: GetDeviceData), screenshot:



and second screenshot (window #2) :




Previously, without issue, I updated my ROM using the SD CARD Method and another ROM on Lumpi's site -- in fact the ROM listed above, without any major problem. And I realize that Lumpi mentions that this ROM is special, and cannot be used through the SDCARD Load or OSImageTool because this is a differently formatted ROM (being a Windows Mobile 2003 SE edition). Then, what specifically is the procedure to get this working? Do I need AdaptAROM? I'm sorry to ask, but I've searched and could not find the link.

(2) Second, I've tried (from the FTP site) to download RSU_040204_6_25 (thinking, logically, that this is the right RSU for my unit config (Date of 4.012.00 ENG). But how exactly am I to update the radio stack and *should* I update it? Has anyone else used this stack?


Many thanks, in advance.

Lumpi -- if you need space to host another kitchen, let me know.

The 4.01.16 prohibits flashing via EXE file. So you can not upgrade diretly to WM2003SE.
Download anonther ROM eg. 3.17.03 or the XDA Developers ROM 1.2 flash your Device via SD Card and then you can Upgrade via EXE-File to WM2003SE

Concerning the RSU Upgrade, there are different files on the FTP. Some are for running on your PC with connected Wallaby via ActiveSync and there ore some files (Should have _PPC in the filename) that have to run directly on the Wallaby. Extract the downloaded ZIP-File and copy all files to the /Windows directory of your device and run the RSUpgrade.exe

If you don´t have any problems with your telephone i would suggest to stay at your current Radio Stack... Upgrading this is a rixk everytime....
Some made good experiences with removing SIMcard before flashing, some other made good experiences with sim inside...

PS: Thx for the offer, but i think i´ve got enough. Currently I´ve got 2 working kitchens up....
