Mr Clean (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=267859) does work.

Device is a Qtek 9100 G4
Original ROM Version: 2.17.7.2 WWE
Original ROM date: 2/10/06
Original Radio version: 02.07.10
Protocol version: 413.1.03
Original ExtROM version: 2.17.7.102

I will cross-post in the other thread to see if RIsodoro can shed any light on this.

Many thanks for the guide - it saves hours of forum reading.

I got the OS to update when I used the lastest Tmobile OS.nb however the Extended Rom did not load.

Device: Tmobile MDA G4
Rom Version: 2.26.10.2 WWE
Rom Date: 6/7/06
Radio Version 02.25.11
Protocol Version: 4.1.13.12
IPL: 2.26.0001
SPL: 2.26.0001

I was wondering where I can download the extended rom portion.

I ran typho5 on the Tmobile Official Rom

I got:

!!! storedcrc=fae6b0a0 calculatedcrc=5968e3ee
extracted SPL_1
extracted IPL_1
extracted SPL_2
extracted IPL_2
extracted GSM_0
extracted OS_0
extracted Splash Screen_0
extracted Extension ROM_2
extracted HTC Logo_0
extracted Extension ROM_1

but when i view the file I only have one Extension.nb
This version has an extended rom...
I dont much on this topic maybe someone can decipher this.

I ran it with Tmobile's extension.nb it didnt load either.

Does anyone have a tool that I can load 9 files into the rom file.

BearJ · Nov 25, 2006

Hi all. I just got a new (well, a used one) MDA Vario today. I'd like to flash it to US ROM 2.26.10.2 from UK 2.21.2.6 so it'll match my other Vario. The installer fails with the Error 294 (Invaid Vender ID). Is this because the new Vario is a G4 and CID locked, or is this an issue with the installer?

Thanks!

- Download the archive NbfTool04.rar i'm attaching.

- Extract the executable NbfTool04.exe that's inside the archive

- Double click on it to start the program

- Go to File -> Open NBF... and select the file nk.nbf you've cooked

- Check if all the information are correct. Pay special attention to OS address, it's called wdata start inside the program. It must be 80040000 and NOT 82040000!!!

Has anyone noticed the tool is unable to dig into official upgrades nbf ? Why ?

Thanks Risidoro,

Just cooked my own one up using your method, and it worked a treat. First created an extended rom via Faria's tutorial then did this with the T-mobile 2.26 ROM and done!

To note: 1 minor issue it did not update the radio rom tried to ad the latest one but it left it at 2.07 then tried the ROM only update and that too failed, but who cares i still got an AKU 2.3 instead of the O2 AKU2.0 so a happy chappy!

erm

I just cooked up a rom, installed... Rom wont boot. Stays on the first screen stating IPL 2.21.0001 SPL 2.21.0001 GSM 01.09.10 OS 1.5.4.2
It wont go any further than that. I followed the instructions in the .pf file to the letter and double checked every step to ensure I was doing it all right.
It did have T-mobile rom on it (which I still have) But I wanted the o2 (uk) version.
Is it F$%^ED?

Jimm98y · Dec 13, 2006

I think it's because the cooked roms won't work on G4 wizards...
