Help!! Installed Atom EXEC rom on an ATOM! - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading

I am very confused and sad right now
Basically the Atom was bought over the internet
with the seller advertising it as Atom Exec
and that is why I installed Atom Exec modified ROM.
Now he has e-mailed me saying that he actually
sold me an Atom.
Now I am getting massive problems, my Atom now
has an Atom Exec ROM and the screen cannot display
photos properly and it almost seems as if it is running
on 256 Colours. I am also getting massive screen flickering
although I have not installed any CPU increaser or anything.
When I try to upgrade the ROM using DSUU (the way I installed
Atom EXEC) it tells me that the Device ID or Country is wrong.
I have THOROUGHLY read the Wiki and the forum and tried
a Bootloader mode but when I put the eboot in my MiniSD and
go into bootloader it instantly says download complete and
when I try to upgrade it it does not work telling me to do it on
OS first.
I am not even sure if this community is alive or dead
I am just very confused since I am still a student and
I've spend all my pocket money buying this phone...
If someone IS out there, please give me a hand!

there is a solution...try searching the forum manually sometimes search doesn't help
i know i saw some threads about people flashing wrong roms
or if you want send him the phone back and request money because you bought it as an exec which is more expensive then atom...well he could make it as it happened accidently,but it might be a trick to sell the phone for more money

first of all thanks for replying.
I have managed to search and find
some stuff about wrong ROM flashing and
currently I am reinstalling an Atom ROM
over my existing ROM... hope this will solve
all the '256 colour' and flickering problems..
Again, thank you for helping me
I will post the results ASAP.

You can go through this.

follow this simple steps:
1. download original ROM from o2/MWG website
2. flash the unit with the original ROM.
your unit should be restored.

Execute any Atom rom, goto Win/Temp<-PC, copy EBOOT.nb0 and save it somewhere.
Execute the Atom Exec rom you currently have installed and replace EBOOT.nb0.
Once finished you will then be able to flash back to Atom rom via bootloader.

Atom Exec ROM 20060721B1CHT & ENU Modified For ATOM

If you need PM
I modified the Atom exec's ExendedROM.img So it can be use in our Normal Atom!!!
Please NOTE:
unrar 5 rar package to C:\windows\TEMP
run device Software Update Utility.exe install!!!
Enjoy!!!
This pic is snap by CHT version
ENU version is same Ext0033 8)
Kobefei,
Have you tested it? Does it solve the Screen flieckering problem or we still need to keep the Batery charged?
Read in the forum that the BOOTLOADER funtionality wasnt avaible in this EXEC ROM, turning a little bit more dificult to upload the original Atom ROM. Would u know if this is still happening in this "upgraded" version?
Many Thanks,

My sentiments exactly. Will this ENU version solve or i should say NOT have the flickering problem and the bootloader problem when reverting back to the original atom rom. I hope soooooo!!! Thanks for the hard work!!!
Has anyone tried this modified Rom atom exec 20060721 on ATOM.
I'm using ROM ATOM EXEC 20060614. This Rom is very good!!!
Cools !!! :lol:

They are captured from a forum and I summarized them as followings.
Possible outcomes after flashing atom with exec rom 20060721.
1) Flickering screen if you REMOVE the battery (so stay away from exec roms if you plan to remove battery once a while, or you occasionally or accidentally deplete the battery). A possible reason is real atom exec use a different screen type (or hardware revision), as it show hardware revision "B" in system information of a real atom exec (later model)
2) New July exec rom does not allow you to return to any previous rom versions, neither via usb ActiveSync update nor bootloader mode, in fact, the bootloader mode in this version does not allow you flash any rom versions, if you try to flash rom in bootloader mode, it will stop and display "pls update in OS mode and synchronised"
3) Can't make a call without using bluetooth or headset, other people can't hear me when using phone mic. Some even added that other cannot hear voice from atom via headset.
A way to do it if you still want to proceed the update .
1) Run atom 0426 rom update program, after the DSUU program extracted the files, don't click "next", go to windows/temp folder, copy those files extracted, except "diskimage_Ver.nb0" and "ExtendedRom.img", then save them somewhere else.
2) Run july exec rom update program, after the DSUU program extract the files, don't click "next," go to windows/temp folder, overwrite with the files you just saved, this will leave only the diskimage_Ver.nb0 & ExtendedRom.img files as of the july exec rom, others become atom rom files, including an older bootloader which allows you to flash back other roms.
3) Flash.
thank you

Thank You! Seems that we should wait for a oficial Atom Update....
Thanks a lot buddy
I just want to know is how to backup the original rom,
using romupdate???
OK
Really cool
I installed the Atom Exec modified update on my Atom. And i tried to install the Old Rom Upgrade of Atom, am getting Country Id or Device Id error. Can anyone help me to install my old Atom ROM upgrade.
Try a hard reset. That should solve it.
Is it impossible to restore 426 after "full install" 0712? My screen flickering much and make me dizzy. Hope someone can help... thx
hard reset can't help. restore 0426 rom impossible.
If you want to revert to the 0426 rom, from the 0721 rom. Copy the eboot file from the 0426 installation to you miniSD card and go to bootloader, when its done you can install the 0426 rom again.

Please Help me ! My Atom Exec stuck at O2 screen

After I upgrades the new WWE ROM , When I finished, I hard reset my device, and my atom exec stuck at O2 screen , I tried to go to bootloader to install again but I could not , it go until preparing to install the new rom, it notice that the connection errors, usb transfer fail, please use DSUU in OS mode and sync with PC first.
I thought maybe I still kept the mini SD card in the side when I hard reset so it caused this error.
Can anyone help me fix this ?!

Your atom exec lost its extROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292115
This problem is also present in the Atom - and if you're getting that message, it means your bootloader has been updated to NOT allow flashing directly from it (thanks, Quanta).
I can't help you with reflashing the BL (you may want to do a search on these boards tho), but try this: turn the device on and leave it for awhile (say 10+ mins), and see if you can get into the Today Screen at least. If you can, simply sync as guest on your PC, then run the DSUU updater. I saved my hacked Atom (using the Exec rom) this way.
If you can't - then I think it's time to call in a warranty.

Help~ Atom Exec How to downgrade to WM5

Please check it out for the latest news at here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=362338
I make the upgrade from WM5 to WM6 by the following post.
ATOM EXEC WM6 AKU0.7a.0 WWE 20071117A1WWE with STK
ATOM EXEC WM6 0.7b.0 WWE 20071216A3WWE
But I reaily can not accept the Bluetooth headset can not use for phone.
I want to downgrade to my default OS, WM5.
I had downloaded the Offical WM5 roms in my computer.
But I tried to downgrade by DSUU directly after the Atom Exec sync with PC.
The error message prompted with "Error Country ID or Device id Error"
I also tried in other mode, (Camara + Reset)
It can detect the CE IMAGE ROM, but unable to detect the Device Rom version.
So the DSUU will show the error "Error: Connection Error."
How can I downgrade the device the Atom Exec to WM5 ?
have you tried MN1 EBOOT?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1684559&highlight=EBOOT.NB0#post1684559
My friend admin88hk be very careful while playing with the bootloader using sdcard or u will have a bricked device like mine . Read the complete forums on upgrade of atom exec then proceed with caution and cross ur fingers during the procedure.
hmmm.... try this first before you flash with SD Card
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335271
cheers,

Is it follow by this step, the device can be fully backwaard to WM5, if all of the step are success.
After that, the O2 connect and O2 Software can be used or not ?
I am looking for a success case.
Is there anyone has been done the steps which are posted about MN1 EBOOT??
Can reply me or give me confidence?? Thanks.

Search and find your confidence mate, heck the link has been given to you!
This topic has been discussed in detail in all main Atom threads, try the link given by tjlabias(<-- btw hope you're well mate! ) after if no success then EBOOT method
I have follow the instructurtion for go back to WM5.
But I get a problem in the step 3.
I have download the EBOOT.nb0 and copy to MiniSD card.
After I insert into Atom EXEC, Press camera+reset.
The Screen will post the transfer in completed after 3 - 5 seconds the screen was load.
But the Atom EXEC was not action come out after the following 3 minutes.
So I press camera+reset again.
The screen still at MN2......
How can I change the bootloader to MN1........
any other solution to do it ?
I am reaily can not stand for the phone can not use the Bluetooth headset.
I also has found a some threads also related, but all of them is not work.

This case was very seems with me.
* I am uploading the image to webhost, I will update the post ASAP.
edit: I searched further and found that it could be done. Sorry for the unnecessary post!

on a side note, is it possible to use the ROMs shown here for WM6 on my o2 which currently has WM5? Or do I first have to get an official upgrade to WM6 and then install the new ROMs here?

don't work boot loader

Dear friends,
I have xda atom. Of which model is wm5. Thank to this forum, I installed the rom of "atom exec" model last year. After installing, function of boot loader was lost. I want to install wm6 for atom. Although I have tried lots of rom that I installed from here, nothing is happen. First telephone is doing restart as if the installation is starting. "Please wait" is writing at PC. But although I have qaited for a while, It didn't do anything. Please write me in a easy understandable form what I have to do.
Thanks
Read the wiki it has very clear instructions. I otherwise think that u have a dead bootloader as u have flashed an Atom Exec ROM to Atom.

help installing WM6.1 (ive read everything i can find)

Hi,
I have a MWG AtomLife running windows mobile v6 i have been trying to install version 6.1 using DSUU.
I get 1 of 2 problems using 2 different version of 6.1 the first problem is
Everything starts off fine, phone softresets but it boots into windows and the DSUU says it failed to connect. No damage to phone.
the seconed problem is it says the country region (or somthing along thoses lines) is wrong and its not compatible with my phone.
I would just like to point out this is MWG not a 02 i got this phone from Portix (the uk disti for MWG) 2 days ago.
Any advice is muchly appricated as i said i have read the wiki, every post i can find on it all the how-tos in the various version but to no avail.
Thanks
FL1X (not fl1c i typod while creating my username how annoyingly rookie of me)
PS> this is the version of 6.1 i was trying to install (using the inbuilt installer and also "pcinstaller1.zip" from another thread) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=413950 I know it says Exec so i tried this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=360664 again to no avail.
Update: just tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2433912&postcount=112 again same problem of the phone softresetting and booting back up loseing connection failing to install.
Hi, if you want to upgrade to WinMo 6.1then you cannot upgrade via DSUU. It is not possible till a DSUU is developed.
For upgrading you would need to use the SD card. Procedure is given in the last link you had visited.
P.S. Do not use ATOM Exec and HP update utilities on Atom Life. You might brick it.
Thanks Maniac, i will look into doing it that way over the weekend, in the event i brick it how can i return it back to the original version of wm6?
'brick it' means ur phone is dead. the term is kind of a metaphor. u can use ur phone as a brick
