another newbie question.......sorry

g'day

i purchased an i-mate K-Jam from the big auction site and after a couple of weeks use i would like to try an upgrade.

i have a G3 K-Jam

IPL 1.01

SPL 1.06

GSM 01.01.10

OS 1.1.9.3

it is a telstra australia branded phone, but it is sim unlocked as i am currently using a vodafone australia sim but i will be using an optus australia sim.

so if i follow the guide i dont think i will have a problem but i guess i just want confirmation that someone else in aus has done the same upgrade and all is well.

thanks

I flashed my unlocked G3 quite a few times, but now I have a rom which is a nk.nbf file. How do I flash this file? I searched the forums here with the forum search and through google and I found some people use something called Shelltool, but I also find many users running into problems using it and I think if I read correctly only G4 users have to use this tool. What is the best way for me to flash nk.nbf?

regards
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] freeyayo50:
You can use the RUU(ROM Update Utility)

On the xda ftp site go to /Uploads/WIZARD/Roms_Bootscreens/WM6_Splash_Wizard_NOID.rar

Download the file and just remove the nk.nbf in the folder and replace it with the one you want. Than run the ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Kenji776:
Thanks! I've got the file and flash.

I have a G3 device with IPL and SPL 2.21 I had the original ROM still on my Vario. I wanted to ugrade to WM6 an used the shell methode.

Everything went well, but my Vario stays now on the screen where you see your IPL, SPL, GSM and OS.

I tried the Wizard Love ROM, but i get an error 264.

Hopefully somebody has an solution?

Take an official rom from your carriers website.

IPL 2.26

SPL 2.26

No 2.26.xx or 2.26.xxx etc

Anybody know? Serial codes? Anything? I'm at a loss.

You really need to give more info. G3/G4? Did you CID-unlock successfully? If it's a G3, you can't upgrade from wizard_love, but you need t-mobile 2.26 IPL/SPL. Follow all the steps carefully.

Have you tried flashing from bootloader screen. You don't need an activesync connection for this. On the first page it's explained how to flash from bootloader.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] backdoc7:
vippy, thanks for the reply and the informative thread..

after a bunch of trys, the phone finally connected to AS and i was able to load the button rom, however, after loading the button rom (for the purpose of unlocking the phone), the phone would not reboot after using the lokiwiz 0.2b unlocking program.. so, because i was stuck with the button rom, i decided to load the t-mobile 2.26 rom back on the phone and just load all my cab's back on, while setting up that rom, i descovered that i actually loaded xeleine's 2.26 cooked rom.. i guess that has an unlocker built in and it loaded so i must be CID unlocked.. i know im already SIM unlocked.. now the million dollar question to you is.. if i have 2.26 (cooked) loaded on the phone, can i just go straight to loading a WM6 rom? also, is there a program to check locked / unlocked status? thanks again!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] vippie:
If you did have an IPL 1.x AND a SPL 1.x when you ran lokiwiz than you're CID-unlocked. If not I think you should try again. There's no easy way to check as far as I know. Lokiwiz telling it's unlocked isn't something to take seriously. Flashing a 2.26 rom neither, because most 2.26 roms flash fine on a CID-locked device. When you flash WM6 to a CID-locked device it will not override the OS and WM5 will load afterwards.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] backdoc7:
thanks for the reply.. yeah. the phone never flashed when lokiwiz 0.2b was executed. i have tried 20 times! lol. i reloaded the buttonrom 2 times.. also, when i loaded the xecelon 2.26 rom, i saw it go through a CID unlocking process.. i guess i could load a WM6 rom and see if it loads, is there a significant risk if it's not CID unlocked? or will it just not load? thanks again.

btw, my spl was still like 2.2 something after i ran the button rom.. thanks.

USB Modem Link

Can anyone tell me if the Cingular 8125 can still be tethered as a modem after it's unlocked and a custom ROM is put on it? When I'm away from home this is often my primary means of internet and I'd hate to lose it. Also, can you re-lock the phone or return to the standard Cingular ROM later. Sorry for the dumb ??'s I'm new at this. Thanks.

Hi,

i have tried to cid unlock my phone in various ways, but none of them does work.

I got a dutch G3 t-mobile 2.21.2.5 version on my phone, with IPL and SPL: 2.21. For some reason, i cant CID-unlock my phone, but i really want to run WM6 on it. Does anyone have a method how i can unlock my phone? The description on how to unlock the device by using the 1.05 button rom doesnt work for me. Is there maybe another way to get the WM6 on my phone?

the downgrade with the 1.05 rom:

at 98% I everytime get the same error: Error 302: Update Error. It's an error about some miscommunication. After that error, my phone only gets into bootloader, and still has the same IPL/SPL. I can restore an working OS with the original rom that was delivered by t-mobile holland.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] joihan777:
vippie,

I apologize as you must see this time and time again.

I need a nudge. EVERYTIME I try to load Button ROM, I get to 98% on 8125.

It is extremely frustrating. I have read [literally] a dozen threads plus the wiki plus scanned the FTP site, all to no avail. Any ideas?

Cingular 8125. WM5 works. Wizard Love worked. T-Mobile 2.26 worked.

It's when I try to load Button ROM that I hit a wall. It gets stuck every time!

I always cold boot between attempts. I even pull the 8125 battery too.

I thought about using the shelltool, but I could not find a working link.

Here's what I have under Device information (on last go around with Cingular):

ROM ver. 2.25.11.1 WWE

ROM date 5/11/06

Radio ver. 02.25.11

Protocol ver. 4.1.13.12

ExtROM ver. 2.25.11.102

It is a Cingular 8125, G3 I believe (no 000's), CID locked. (The problem)

Any ideas on how (& where) to find a alternate 1.xx ROM so I can use the Loki app? Thanks, Johann
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] vippie:

Guys, strangest thing happend...

I had a G3 SPL/IPL 2.17

So i followed the thread tutorial step-by-step and downloaded the proper things from the thread.

So, i went to G3.4 and downloaded the wizard_love rom.

But, it was in Spanish or somethin' and it was not suitable for me said the dialog of the program.

So, i downloaded button rom and succefully flashed my phone.

Then, the tutorial says to flash it with T-Mobile 2.26 rom.

But, when i try to do it, it says it is not suitable for my version.

What to do now, anyone knows?

Follow the steps in the thread I just mentioned if you want to CID-unlock, but I think you should do some more reading before you try again.

If you want to go back to the old WM5 and wizard_love rom fails you can flash the rom from your carrier website.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] oXydead:
Yes, but what about my IPL and my SPL difference?

They are not the same :/
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Did you flash the button rom once, or more than once? You have to read and follow every single step of the thread on CID unlocking.

I think I just created a brick

I think I turned the love of my life, my Tmobile MDA/Wizard into a brick!

I was doing really good. I had just installed that jazzy iphone theme and it was working perfectly. Then someone in another forum suggested I flash my rom so I can get better performance. (The theme did slow things down a bit). I was on a cloud because I managed to get through installing this theme without screwing up my phone so I said, heck....I can follow instructions and flash my rom. Boy, was I wrong.

I decided to go with Faria G4 Step by step installer with instructions by Eddieitman. I went to Tmobile website, downloaded the latest ROM and commenced with following the instructions. I flashed through shelltools and it only took 2 minutes not the 15+ minutes but I assumed this was because I already have the most current ROM on Tmobiles site. I went to hard reset as instructed but I accidently let go of one of the buttons before it was time and lost my phone. Now I get nothing. When I try to power on, it gets as far as the Tmobile screen with those tiny grey square boxes. The only way I can power it down is to take out battery. I tried doing that win love thing. I am able to get to the 3 color screen by powering on and holding the camera button.

Can anyone help me? I really dont know a thing about flashing ROMS but I have tinkered with my phone and computer for years. I've always been able to read directions and be successful. This one has me stumped.

Thanks,

Deidre
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] vippie:
------------

G4.2 Turn off you're device totaly. Remove the SD card and disconnect the USB cable from you're device. Turn on the device while holding the camera button. You will get into bootloader mode (3 colored screen). Connect the USB cable to the computer and you will see USB at the bottom of your screen above the left softkey (Activesync will not connect in bootloader mode, but you can flash from this screen!). go to G4.3

G4.3 Download wizard_love rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G4.4.

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

Don't think your wizard is bricked. You can still revive it with wizard_love. If this doesn't work try your carriers rom (from their website).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] tigreyez:
To Vippie

I did try wizard love and my carriers rom and nothing has worked. Unless I am doing it wrong. I tried a couple of different ways. First I just ran that newromupdate utility (which btw is in a foreign language) and I get the error RomUpdateUtility MFC Application has stopped working and my only option is to close the program. I also tried moving that nk.nbf file into the same directory as my shelltools and run shelltools and nothing happens. I waited almost an hour last night and nothing happened. I also notice that my computer doesnt even show that my phone is connected? Normally when I go into my computer I can see my phone but now I cant. I hope I am explaining this all correctly.

Thanks,

Deidre
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] vippie:
When you're at the bootloader screen and connect the USB cable... do you see "USB" on the bottom of your screen? Have you got activesync installed (for the driver?) Maybe you are using vista? The RUU only works on XP. I think you are because I thought vista throws this error. Revive it on XP! You can also make a xp virtual machine with vmware.

i have the same problem using G3. I've tried going down to button's 1.05 then to 2.26 WM5 then to WM6 (TNT 4.0 and NBD 8.0) but it keeps the old ROM and WM5. I've flashed this thing 10 times already but no success. Is there a secret on how to get it to WM6??

*I am CID unlocked and SIM unlocked via lokiwiz and it was successful.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] vippie:
Nope, you aren't. It confusing that lokiwiz allways gives this message. If your old OS shows up after flash.... CID-locked! Have you gotten both IPL and SPL to 1.x when flashing button rom?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] GerooTech:

I got the IPL to 1.x by using button 1.05 and tried flashing again and a 3rd time but the SPL wouldn't go down to 1.x.

a little strange....

I'll try the CID unlock again and see if anything better happens...

*edit - i think i wasn't downgrading to button 1.05 first before doing the lokiwiz unlock. that part is a bit confusing on the unlock thread as it tells you how to unlock it but not that it needs to be on the button 1.05 rom. i hope this is my problem!
