Error [300] : Invalid update tool

I tried to flash XDA_s WM 6.1 ROM that has no IPL SPL. The process failed initially with error code 300. I have successfully flashed the ROM with Soft SPL and the device is working well. It seems that it only unlocks the simlock but not the CID. I have no doubt the initial IMEI change and 2 stage software unlock through bootloader mode has all suuccessfuly finished with success messages and reboot of both the PDA and the PC. I still recommend Soft SPL for CID locking bypass keeping in mind to choose G4 safe ROM. I hope others who try will post to share experience. :rolleyes:
[G4] RoryB:
Try a different No ID update utility. Note: 2.exe in softspl is an update utility.
[G4] frederico_klein@yahoo.de:
Brilliant! worked like a charm
[G4] LadyBumavere:
Tested and it does work! Thanks!
[G4] jwzg:
Does this allow your IPL/SPL to change if you flash a factory ROM?
[G4] -MyHTC-:
Yes it does
[G4] jwzg:
One more question: Does this allow you to flash the Extended ROM?
[G4] -MyHTC-:
Yes it does, however there are many factory shipped ROMs that aren’t compatible with the G4 device.

I would recommend you extract the ROM and check to see if it has two each IPL-SPL, if it does its G4 safe.

In general but not guaranteed factual “just covering my ass” ROM versions 2.16 and above are safe.

Hope that helps
[G4] jayraj:
thanks..............done in g4 device
[G4] jwzg:
It worked. Funny though, I could not flash an official ROM (latest UK T-Mobile version), but my wm6 build minus ipl/spl was flashed with no problems.
[G4] -MyHTC-:
That’s very odd, have you verified that the phone is CID unlocked? If not please follow the instructions on how to do so.

Instructions:

Download MTTY

1. Open ActiveSync go to Connection Settings and uncheck “Allow USB connections”.

2. Put the phone in boot loader mode:

Turn the phone off press and hold the Camera key, now insert the USB cable, Keep holding the “Camera” key until you get the boot loader screen.

3. Start MTTY select Port: = USB click the “OK” button, you don’t need to change anything else.

4. Type “set 32”

“g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = 0” = CID unlocked, “g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = FF” = CID locked.

If the phone is CID unlocked, is this the ROM you tried? I have no problem installing that ROM.
[G4] jwzg:
Showing unlocked in mtty.

It gets to 95% and says "this .nbf file cannot be used to update your PDA phone". Mine is a Wiza 100. Could that be the difference?

Lost.
[G4] -MyHTC-:
I have both Wiza100 G3 and Wiza200 G4, the ROM installs with success on both.

I no longer have a Wiza100 G4 but that shouldn’t matter it should work, are you using the installer that comes with the ROM?

Have you tried to install any other factory ROMs?
[G4] jwzg:
No I haven't other than the factory ROM. Let me see if another installer will work and I'll get back to you.
[G4] jwzg:
Still no luck on updating using an official ROM. Process stops at 95%
[G4] -MyHTC-:
At this I have no idea what the problem could be, i’ve never had any problems installing factory shipped ROMs.

Hopefully someone else will know what the problem is.
[G4] jwzg:
I had to unpackage the nk.nbf and pair it with the other installer. I now have the 3.08 ipl/spl. Yeah!
[G4] -MyHTC-:
Glad to hear you got it worked out.
[G4] jwzg:
Note to all: If you have trouble flashing a factory ROM after the unlock, unpackage the updater (.exe) for the ROM you want to flash and unpackage the updater from your factory ROM. Replace the nk.nbf of the updater from your factory ROM with the nk.nbf of the ROM you want to flash. Run the RUU utility and it will work. STILL MAKE SURE YOU HAVE DOWNGRADED HARD SPL BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING.

Help with WST warning please

Hi,

When I press enab.RAPI+Unsigned Apps button, the process is completed successfully as follows:

"Uploading files...

Running Cert_SPCS.cab to change Unsigned

Prompt policy...

Running EnableRAPI.cab to remove restrictions

on RAPI communications...

All Done!

You can fully use this service tool now.

Repeat procedure only after a hard-reset."

However, after pressing Repair IMEI button I get the following in red:

"Warning!

A device was detected but one (or both) of RAPI

Communications and Applications Policy isn't

enabled.

Use first button for that purpose and try again"

I have no hard spl, but the OS is WM6.5, any help greatly appreciated.

[G4] -MyHTC-:
I would recommend you restore your phone to stock condition and try again.
[G4] -MyHTC-:
You bricked your phone.

On the front page it clearly says.

WARNING - VERY IMPORTANT FOR HARD SPL USERS, YOU MUST "REMOVE HARD SPL" BEFORE PROCEEDING!
[G4] lenzen24:
hello, i think is no brick

hello,

before i have done this, i done this:

You can download the hardSPL from here HERE or here.

[edit]26-09-'07 02:00 repacked the Hard SPL, it seems that the first package method caused some problems.[/edit]

from this forum.

i can connect usb in bootloader mode, but the only thing i can flash is

the wm6 g4 secure german from this forum.

i tryed to flash the original update from t-mobile, but it says "fehler ... falsche verkäufer id" (sorry my english i think it means false vendor or so)

however. the flash with the wm6 from forum is 100% complete, but the phone doesn't restart.

maybe the phone is not bricked, i think, because i can connect and flash.

does anyone can help me.

Enable RAPI B4 re-writing IMEI?

Great post - I've succesfully unlocked a 2006 G4 Cingular 8125. One thought - when we return to the Wizard Service tool to install our original IMEI, would you not "Enable RAPI" first, before clicking on "Repair IMEI"? The phone's been through an identity change, and I found the Service Tool did not recognize it.

Great job laying out the steps in a concise, orderly fashion. Thank you!

Well...,

Another G4 WIZARD (WIZA100 with Cingular 2.25.0001) was unlocked using this method. But not without glitches! Here are the problems I had:

- Both times after changing the IMEI, WST (4.2.2) was refusing to detect the device, so I had to reformat;

- After the CID unlock was done, I also was unable to flash with other OEM firmware to upgrade the version to 3.08.0001. Was giving an error at 95%. Had to reflash to Cingular OEM to recover it. Hm...:confused:, first time even with the OEM was refusing at 4%, but tried again and it passed. And as jwzg has done, I also used to extract the nk.nbf and start it with Cingular's RUU. Now I have 3.08.0001 :p
[G4] gambal:
Have you guys seen this thread? A few people report successful recovering of bricked devices.

Thank you for the post. I ended up buying another Wizard to continue my ROM work with and have now stopped ROM building. I currently have a Fuze. I am thinking about selling my dead G4 and my still living G3 Wizards.
[G4] n2rjt:
RoryB: good to see you on here. I have two AT&T Tilts and a Tilt-2, but still find myself using my Wizard (with Ham3r's H3R7 beta) more often than you'd think. Whenever I need an all-day battery, the old Wizard can't be beat. When I don't mind a battery that dies in half a day, I use the Tilt running Android Froyo.

I'm thinking that since wizard development is all but dead, we should have a thread with stable links to the "hall of fame" roms. I'd certainly include one or two of the Angel series that you did.
[G4] lucids:
does anyone have a working link for the No_ID_Update_Utility_v2.0.1.0.zip the 4shared link comes up as invalid after the wait time when u click download. Also the link for mtty (also 4 share) shows as being a trojan in kasperksy so a clean version would be nice thanks :)
[G4] -MyHTC-:
The link "Wizard No ID Update Utility" is working fine and kasperksy is wrong 4shared checks for virus.

I just checked the link again and it seems to be working only part of the time

I changed the link im getting the same thing, must be something wrong with 4shared

ok.. first of all it works after a lot of figure out..

even it is 2012 already i still use Cingular 8125.. it's been 1 years already i've use this phone SIM unlock.. only now that i get use to this forum, i tried to CID unlock. before that, following this post, i got 1 big problem. i was on windows 7 ultimate previously. i tried to run WST and works perfectly but when i tried to run M3000v4aUnlock, my laptop shutdown. i've been figuring this out in a day and i realize that even M3000...... tool can't run in compatibility mode. so i had to install windows vista in another partition. after all the fuss, i start this instructions again then boom.. all unlock godly

So, after seeing way too many posts about it not working, I sacrificed and flashed the stock operator rom and exported the MMS settings that hamper things on a custom rom. Here you all go. I tested it all and it works here! Cheers

What it fixes:

MMS max send size in new message

MMS receive size (issues with the pictures always being shrunk)

How to use:

Extract and import registry file.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] romeo0119:
How much is the maximum kb u can send? still 300? My mms works fine with a lil edit after flashing custom rom, will try this one out the next time I flash. Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] gehzumteufel:
This edits all those sizes and also fixes the super small pictures when you receive them. This is specific to the Rhodium, but I am sure you can use it with the others too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Justin241982:
Any way to get them imported into the registry most editors only support unicode 5 for .reg files? Any incite besides "Use resco explorer" would be greatly appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] takeda240:
hey thanks for this post .. but my problem isnt the size of the mms .. because i cant send or recieve at all. ive gone through all my connections and stuff but i cant get it to work ive googled and searched here and even posted about it but no answers .. noone has had this problem? im using the energy rom its fantasic but this is my only real problem :( i think its because i have to schange the settings in the arcsorft unfortunately there seems to e noway to access in this rom :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] gehzumteufel:
I just use "task manager" that comes with the Energy roms. It works like a charm. :)

I am unsure of what you mean. I am on TMOUS and the latest Energy rom has the MMS all fixed when it comes to servers and data connections with the connection setup. I didn't need to change anything in that respect.

Hi, just got my x1 a week ago and flashed it with a new rom, however I've heard some rumor about the result after flash the ROM with SD card is more stable than flash it with USB cable.

I can understand the point that SD flashing it's "safer" because you won't accidently break the usb connection and mess up your flashing process.

so, given you can safely flash the rom with both methods, aren't they suppose to work like same?

I have a similar request but was unsure if I should start a new thread, If this needs to be moved my apologies (I also searched through Q&A forums as well and came up empty :) ). Where or how could I get the source code for the Home Screen pull up menu? I checked out the Google Source Code but it requires Linux or Mac OS and I run Windows Vista.

Yeah, I'm considering running Linux on my laptop alongside Vista, as I have hit dead-ends on a couple projects simply because you need Linux for different things :(. All I really need is a place that I could find the source; I had an idea that I proposed to mohsinkhan47 for his Vista theme and he asked me to find the code for the pullup menu. It would be much appreciated if anyone could guide me in the right direction.

Hello everyone,

first off, I'm new to all this. Here's my situation,

I was trying to install a new ROM on my G1 and I found instructions on how to gain root access to my phone. I felt like I had followed the instructions but I can't seem to get the ROM installed on my phone. I downloaded Recovery Flasher and installed it. I chose "Backup recovery image" and then "Flash Cyanogen Recovery 1.4" and it all seemed fine, but then when I rebooted my phone and tried to install the new ROM it wouldn't let me. But I think I know what the problem was, I missed the step where I had to rename the folder of the ROM to "update." I went back to factory settings and tried to re-do the steps but this time, Recovery Flasher gives me the options to:

Download Recovery Image

Restore Backup Image

this confuses me because it's not the same as it was the first time I tried it. Does this mean my phone is already rooted? I tried to uninstall and install it again and same 2 options come up.

I know i was doing it right at first because I got all the correct screens that I saw on the instructions, but now I don't. I've been searching here and all over google to see if I can find an answer but I couldn't so I decided to make a thread to see if someone can help.

Thanks!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamPI:
AFAIK the one-click method doesn't survive a full reboot, because when you reboot the OS it overflashes the recovery partition again with the original (unless you've flashed a new ROM)

Now your problem seems to be the "folder" bit. You do not unzip the ROM, you put, eg, "update-cm-4.0.4-signed.zip" on your SD card as-is. You also no longer need to rename it to use from this recovery partition.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomness55:
I see,

well, when I tried it with update-cm-4.0.4 (that's what I was trying to install) it said that the file could not be found, and then I read that I'm supposed to change the file name to "update" and when I did that, it found it right away but it gave me the error "No Signature" (something along those lines) even though according to the place where I download it from, it is signed.

Should I just try to boot into recovery mode again and try it out again? I remember the very first time I tried it loaded the screen with a bunch of options, but now it just has 3, Boot Into Home, Wipe, and Apply SDcard zip, I might be wrong on the exact wording of those options but that's all I get...

and recommendations? Thanks for your response

2 IMAP accounts linked

-the above as background for what it is worh and useful)

When in the TF e-mail screen where one is looking at the envelope, I think before I was able to "touch the envelope" continously (2-3 seconds) and the menu would pop up and I would be able to delete this message WITHOUT opening the actual e-mail (I basically would never leave the envelope screen)

This is not working anymore - maybe it never has, but I could swear it did in the beginning.

Could you guys please check on your phones - do I remember correctly??? Please tell meI am still sane and that there is a way to bring this functionality back...

Thanks all

Thanks guys - maybe we'll see a tweak for that down the road - this is a bit annoying (and slow) - the time to open a message (from envelope, TF, to Windows mobile view) is considerable.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jashsu:
If you've just added or removed files from /system, then no. update-script just flashes the entire system directory without caring what the contents are. You only really need to modify update-script if you want to change some initial aliases, change the directory[ies] being flashed, that sort of thing.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] random_username_:
thanks, just to clarify if i add something to /system/app no edit of the update script is needed but if i add something to /data/app an edit is needed
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jashsu:
Yes, because most update-scripts do not touch /data. For good reason too, because everything in a stock update.zip is meant to survive a wipe (Alt+w)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Binary100100:
I guess it depends on what is already on the update-script file.
