Unlocking MDA Compact

Anyone found a way yet to unlock the T-Mobile MDA Compact? Or will the XDA2UNLOCK tool be updated to unlock this puppy?

I read (I think on the Expansys forums) that the MDA Compact devices as sold in Germany (ie by nowicom) are SIM-lock free!

I have a Dutch MDA Compact, simlocked to T-Mobile :-( but with English OS

Wiz,
Then YOU have the Intellipad.cab and the Intellidialer.cab in English sitting in your ExtROM / Vdisk.
Could you post / mail those two?
Same questions for cprog.exe wich resides in the \windows folder . . .
BIG Thank you from all English non WM2003SE device owners!
You get access to the ExtROM /VDisk by after a hard-reset and just before the customisation starts soft-resetting the device.

Intellipad English and Intellidialer English. Now who is going to unlock my MDA Compact for me? ;-)

Thanks WIZ. IntelliPad is OK. But we need the file \Windows\cprog.exe to install IntelliDialer. Pls post here this file from your device. Pls...
Thanks u very much!

PocketMe: cprog.exe is a rom prog and thus cant be extracted from the device . . .
Its the rom filesystem that makes this impossible . . .
Read that in some old thread here

Correct, whatever I try, I cannot copy it. Sorry

Is there still no way to unlock an MDA compact?

Hello,
Wiz, could you post a zip with all the extender rom in enlish ?
Thanks

T-Mobile MDA Compact: Extended Rom English
Here you have the complete extended ROM. Now someone please find a way to unlock it
Update: Apparently uploading a zip file currently does not work. If you want to have it, PM me your e-mail address, and I will mail it to you (5.5 Mb)

Thanks but I don't see the link to download it ?

Can anyone PLEASE tell me how to uninstall Intellipad.
Once I installed it I could no longer get any input method to take place other than trhe keyboard. The options for Intellipad and Calligrapher and Block Recopgnizer were ther but it would not change to them when you clicked on them.

If it's not listed in Settings > System > Remove Programs, I'd guess you'd need to hard reset. :?:

Hi Wiz,
I also intend to buy a MDA Compact from T-Mobile Netherlands. You got the English one, didn't you?
I called to the T-Mobile Klant services today and they said they will send me the Dutch one.
I have no idea how it happens to the T-Mobile Netherlands.
Have you found the way to unlock the MDA Compact yet?

hmm the Dutch one?? I don't think that's completely true. For instance, only a part of the menu is dutch, and there is so such thing as dutch T9 yet.
But... where does the unlock tool stay? 120 euro :shock: is to expensive

Unlock Dutch T-Mobile MDA Compact
Did somebody already have information on how to succesfully unlock a Dutch T-Mobile MDA Compact?
It would be very nice to be able to use it with another provider SIM-card in it...

en easier to use it in english. Could someone help us to crack this simlock 8)

To be exact: There is no Dutch language PocketPC. All PocketPC's in the Netherlands are sold with an English operating system. So, the MDA Compact also comes with an Englsh Operating System.
Aside from that, I am not a developer or hacker, and I am not capable of cracking a simlock, sorry. I am also waiting for someone here to find the crack

Look here: he says "This rom is english unlocked". Has anyone with a Dutch T-Mobile MDA tried this ROM update to see if it unlocks the device?

new rom 1.11 from www.qtek.fi

There a new rom WWE for Magician's.
I have finnish S100 with WWE rom 1.06, but web site want password from IMEI or something like that and I dont understend soumi. Please, someone how knows soumi to see what exactly site wants.

Can anybody upload it on this FTP? I'll give this ROM a try ASAP 8)
Thanks

Käyttäjätunnus on IMEI-koodi, salasanaa ei tarvita. = Username is IMEI code, no need for password.
You need to have IMEI that is registered with qtek.fi to get the file.
YOu can check if the IMEI works on the bottom of the page. Tarkista IMEI-koodillasi tästä, että oletko oikeutettu Qtek-tukeemme = Check here if your IMEI code entitles you for our Qtek support

it doesn't work :evil:

My Swedish Dangaard s100 imei isnt working either.. its need to be a finnish Dangaard sold device.. anyone have one.. ??
Plz dl the upgrade and upload it to the ftp..
Carlis

More news please...
:roll:

When I test my IMEI number I think it recognizes my device as an S100 but my IMEI will not work to download the file. Can someone translate this?
Qtek S100.
Koodia xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ei löytynyt. Tarkista, että kirjoitit koodin oikein.
Mikäli IMEItäsi edelleenkään hyväksytä, ota yhteyttä jälleenmyyjääsi.
IMEI-koodi on GSM-puhelimen 15-numeroinen laitetunnus, joka löytyy yleensä akun alta.
Useimmissa GSM-puhelimissa IMEI-koodin saa näytölle näppäilemällä: *#06#

man no one can get us this upgrade!
where are the finlands peeps??! come out don't be shy!

Mashie,
Just guessing here, but I believe it means something like:
There's a new ROM for your Qtek device, and we won't let you have it! Nah na na nah na :twisted:
Anyway, my Danish Qtek IMEI is no good either. We need some finnish people to finish this download, ASAP

Hello, this is my first post over here.
I just ordered a finnish Qtek s100 today so I should be able to provide the rom file. But I'm pretty sure I won't receive the phone until early next week, so you'll have to wait a couple of days.
Anyway, the translation to the text you were wondering about:

If your IMEI is still not accepted, contact your retailer.
IMEI code is a 15-digit GSM phone ID number, which can usually be found under the battery.
In most GSM phones you can view IMEI code by pressing: *#06#

The funny thing is I keep hitting the site "just incase" their authentication fails and it lets me download the rom. I know it won't happen but I hate having the link there that I can not get to

I shall try to find Finnish IMEI today.

@tupisdin
any news??

Nope

This new ROM doesn´t bring many new updates... Rumors say that radio shouldn't be updated because it doesn't work very good...I was hoping for other major updates like BT profiles or something like that but...guesse it's not in this version...
No, I do not have the ROM, this is just information i caught on the Internet... All the excitment i had with this ROM is lost...

Where you got this information?

I was just searching in google for this ROM, and i found a website, don't remember which one, i didn't bookmarked it...All Qtek companys have it to test...Maybe a qtek.gr or qtek.nu have it already for download i don't know

Currently thhere is new rom avaliable at qtek.fi only.

Do we at least have access to the name of this file?

Clarification of ROM Upgrading

Hi,
I am expecting my German XDA in the mail in the next few days.
I have been reading this forum for the past 2 weeks, and have tried to wade through all the great advice to educate myself on ROM upgrading issues. I would like to clarify that I understand this properly.
As I understand, in order to render my new XDA "O2-free" and customizable, not to mention english, I need to install a new ROM - probably the latest Imate ROM or maybe the PDAMobiz ROM.
Before I do this, should I Unlock the CID? From my reding, this will allow me to the install any ROM.
Is this an accurate understanding of everything involved?
Are there other better options to achieve my goal of a non-branded non-operator specific Jamin/Neo?
Is there a way to save my original German O2 ROM if it became necessary to return the unit for service?
I hope people do not object to thsi post. I know that it can be irritating when newbies post on topics which have already been discussed thoroughly. I have spent at least 2 weeks trying to educate myself on the procedures, and really would just like if some knowledgeable contributor could reassure me that I have not missed something obviuos.
Thanks,
Ronan

I'm still updating the page, but its working fine for my dutch s200 (now english dopod rom)

Hi,
I tried to follow the steps as outlined, but when I get to teh first soft reset, the device locks, and I can do nothing with it!
Please tell me how to fix it. Can I use bootloader?
How?
Thanks,
Ronan

Crisis averted!
Got into bootloader and installed the dopod rom.
Ro

Dear Ro,
have you upgrated your PDA?
Can you write your procedure?
Best regards
Daniele

please, read this topic and tell me what you think about it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=54878

I entered bootloader then used the Dopod ROM with the modified romupdateutility.
I have not tried anything else.
Does anyone know of a solution for us SPL 2.15.0001 users? We seem to be very restricted in options.
Ro

Please, can you write the links where it is possible to download this rom and all the necessary files?

Thanks dears,
I have updated it with Dopod rom......but now....how can I update to I-mate JAMin (italian) rom?
Does someone have an Idea to how do it?
Thanks, thanks, thanks
Daniele

Yes, you have to go to ftp.clubimate.com there you can find the JAMin ROM's and also you can choose the language you want.
As you know, first, you must CID unlock, then you can download your favorite ROM. Tell us your opinon after install it.

Official Rom For Mda Vario Iii Ger T-mobile

Hello to everybody,
anybody has got an official version of this rom or know a place to download it? I think a WWE version of that can be fine.
Thanks

Yep that's right. Not only that T-Mobile didn't yet release 6.1 for the Vario III, they don't even provide any kind of an update for the old 6.0
Acoording to their regulations of course, you wouldn't need this ROM since you're not supposed to replace it anyway...
Stefan

T-Mobile vario 3 official rom
Can't use the reconstructed cause my hard-spl had a bad installation and my kaiser stucks in the boot mode , so only an original rom that doesn't check for country and vendor IDs can save me.
I don't need an update , but just any version installable on this device to let me install in the right way hard-spl.
In my Diamond the hard-spl installation was fine , I was unlucky with the kaiser , mtty commands can't help me , just proved.

The version you need doesn't exist...
edit: What's on the phone now? The normal SPL? But a cooked ROM??!!
Since that's impossible to my knowledge I assume that you are stuck in Bootloader with the normal SPL and the official ROM is still flashed but doesn't boot. If that's the case you might hypothetically (I'm not suggesting you do ;-) )try taking it to a T-Mobile store and tell them it just stopped working.

maybe you´ll find help in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371154
or you can pm one of the masters...

Unfortunately I'm from Italy and there' re no T-mobile sellers in my country.
Normally I should not use that phone , taken from ebay at very cheap price.
I must be patient and wait for an update from tmo for the vario III ...
thanks to everybody
