Hi,
Beeing a newbie i have spent the last couple of days reading stuff in this forum, learnt a lot i have, but ready I am not... :?
Got my German MDA uppgraded with english iJam ROM according to the procedure from Pinooo (Thanx a lot by the way). Great. Skipped the extended ROM install as it said. Fine.
Next step, extended ROM... Which should i use, the UK iMate one or the German T-mobile one? Or even a combination? (in that case how)
I want English language but the GPRS and MMS settings for t-Mobile Germany.
What shall I do with the files in the "extended_rom" folder (leftovers from ROM uppgrade)? Just to throw them away?
This is giving me bit of a headache...
Anybody in my situation, Using a t-mobile MDA in Germany with Eng. Language, who could advice?
Cheers
I'm using a MDA compact flashed to English
Great X-man,
Got the parts i need from the extended rom installed now.
BUT... Me pretty stupid ...
Lost the settings for MMS and GPRS. Looked around and found GPRS settings that works quite good but still not able to send/recive MMS.
How did you solve that problem?

There is two fixes for the JAM...:
First one to fix MMS problems (Unable to send & receive)... See attached file...
The second one is Photo quality enhancement ROM upgrade... find it here...:
http://www.seeo2.com/support/XdaIImini/template/ServiceMenu.vm
I hope somebody can upload it for us here cause we need IMEI for XDAmini devices...
what exactly does it do?
I would like to test the Photo quality enhancement ROM upgrade on my MGA compact.
But i cannot get it (o2 IMEI needed!)
Anyone, please?
It seems the new extended rom included a patch file which will increase the default sharpness of the camera program.
The default sharpness setting is 10 now.
The attached file is the patch extract from the new extended rom.
I have tried the Photo Enhancement ROM, it made my O2 XDA MINI pictures worst...pictures got many white spots! Now, I dont know what to do.
Eiso the upgrade works fine with my MDA Compact so do not terrorize other MDA users with your problem! Your problem most probably has to do with a fawlty camera! Try to check with the service from where you bought it!
Photos are much better especially in low lighting conditions now!
Messed up my JAM
I think this must be specific to certain ROMs. My ROM 1.0.3.00 WWE with Middle East extensions (Arabizer etc etc) and this update completely messed up my Today screen with zig zag horizontal lines. Had to perform hard reset.
Seem not to work on my german t-mobile MDA compact, ROM 1.01.01 GER.
Same prob as cdx47 mentions (messing up today screen, easy to solve, just change today theme)
and
no visible changes in camera results, no changes in default sharpness value.
Does it really give better pics with other ROM versions?

You dont have to hard reset! That thing happens even if you restore a sprite backup too! You only have to change the theme to another one and then again to the one you want and everything will be ok!
More than that you need 2 files from the o2XDA mini exntended rom to fully install the upgrade. You will find the whole extended ROM of o2's XDA mini at the FTP server! I am using the imate arabizer ROM too and it works fine with my German MDA Compact!

May you please post the 2 required files for this upgrade?
Thanks in advance.
What does this camera patch/upgrade do? Does it just increase the default sharpness level?
I have downloaded the 2 patches for camera from XDA mini ROM which are:
1- CameraWizard_O2Asia_Customize.CAB
2- CameraWizard_WWE_B19_to_RC14.CAB
the first one is about 58KB only and it has nothing to do with improving the photo quality, it is only to adjust the capture size when taking contact Photo.
the second file which is about 746KB contain same camera version 2.7 but newer build, but when i installed it i have lost all the colors and i stuck with gray scale photos only.
it seems this file will not work on all ROM version! for me, i am using original imate JAM ROM. other users with MDA devices don't have any problems with this file!
Regards.

I just can't get the MMS functionality to work on my Qtek S100! :?
When trying to send/recieve it connects to the operator (Vodafone) but after that nothing happens. I can also see the small yellow sending icon at the top of the screen but still nothing happens. I'm quite sure I have set upp MMS correctly (with information from the Vodafone web site).
I also installed the MMS fix (posted on this thread) but it still doesn't work.
Anyone else having problems with sending/recieving MMS:es?
Thanx!
Hi,
Anyone tried this MMS-patch on a QTek S100? I tried to get MMS work on a S100, but it doesn't work to receive MMS-messages...
I know there is a new ROM available, but does anyone has the patch for MMS out of that ROM?

Katsj, do you have any sample photos from the old and new rom to compare?
I'm using a Qtek S100. No problem with MMS. Works fine (send and receive). Tested with Orange CH.

did you run the patch? or did it work standard, mms is not working standard on my QTek S100
greetz
No patch. But I installed the french rom. Don't remember if I tried MMS with the original english rom.
I just ran the patch above on my QTek S100 and now MMS seems to work smooth, so for everyone who doens't do the ROM update this is a solution,
thx y'all

Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I want to do a complete upgrade on my T-Mobile MDA (US) to WM6. I want to be able to keep all of the T-Mobile features (Email, HotSpot, GPRS/EDGE, etc) and have all of the new WM6 features. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance
you want to have your cake and eat it too.
Reading is fundamental. But the Search button is your friend. All the info you need is located in this forum. Don't expect handouts if your not willing to work.
I understand what he's getting at so don't flame, as some of these programs are actually built into the ROM, and may not be WM6 compatible. They also have at least one program and several icons placed by the extended ROM, so if you have a G4, you may be SOL if you use the IM program. Heck I'm going to be working on the same thing over the next three weeks, since I am a t-mobile customer back in the states. I've already managed to get two of the t-mob WWE AKU 3.3 OEM working (damn that's a lot of adjectives). I'll try to keep you up on my progress, but this is going to be slow going for the meantime.

Save off your EXT Rom. You can reinstall these apps after your flash (provided all work in WM6)
As for your GPRS/EDGE and MMS you can use the cabs from your EXT Rom or you can enter the settings manually from the T-Mobile website.
Details on how to do these things are all over this forum. You need to read. Most likely you do not NEED WM6 you just WANT it. You need to determine if your want justifies the cost of replacing your device if you don't research properly before jumping in with both feet and mess it up. Do you know if your device is a G3 or G4 yet? If not read, read, read. There is no need for people to give you step by step instructions in your thread as there are already step by step instructions in the STICKY threads (you have read these, right?).
i have a program that allows u to mount the extended rom, then u can access the ext rom from file explorer and copy it to the mini sd. its attached as htweakc. also, i attached the t-mobile ozim instant messaging program. good luck

Thank you!
I appreciate everyone's feedback.
nstefanelli, thank you for attaching those files for me. I'm going to try them out this weekend.
I'll let everyone know how it goes.
T-Mobile Hotspot App
Hi,
On a related matter, does anyone have the T-Mobile Hotspot app handy? Do I need to install it into my non-TMobile Hermes if I want to subscrible to TMobile and use their Hotspots?
Kind regards,
Neil
no app is needed. i am on wm6 and NEVER installed the app. i was at SFO a couple months ago (i have had WM6 since early feb) and i used the WIFI just fine!
I have an X05HT and i am in love with it.. the only thing is i don't read japanese.... I purchased SelMUI version 2.2 (Kinda like CE-Star which changes UI from Japanese to english... made by Mobem....) and it worked. My problem is when i installed that software i am no longer able to access my Softbank SMS or S!Mail and folders... i can recieve emails but i can't respond....
The only thing i can do is switch back to Japanse but when i do that the program soft resets the phone..... EVERY TIME (VERY ANNOYING)
also i noticed that when it rebooted after soft reset an error messge popped up "An error occuried with cprog.exe" Is there anything i can do to get this running properly?
all your assistance is greatly appreciated
very respectfully,
GregTHEnewGUY
There is a free app on this forum called diamond tf3d config. This app will let you change TF3D into English; however prompts and most things will remain in Japanese.
Your best bet is to install hardspl, flash a wwe rom and set up your hsdpa and smail that way. I am using Dutty's 3.6b with flinx's JPIMEWM6 cab for japanese display; I have successfully set up MMS (SMAIL) using the arcsoft app that comes with dutty's rom. You are on an x05ht, so I don't know if duttys will work, you may need to read the raphael section for more info.

Hi, I've been having this problem for a couple months now, ever since I had to get a new Fuze after losing my old one. I've been trying to solve this problem for a couple days now and I'm really at my wits' end. If anyone has any ideas, it would help me out greatly! I have searched this site for any answers and have not seen any solutions so far.
Anyways, for some background, I have been living in China for the past 6 months and on my previous Fuze installed a Chinese font pack (have used Yahei, Sunglobe to no difference) as well as some Chinese inputs (Z4A4 input, also tried PlumSIP pro) to type in Simplified Chinese to people here. I was using the standard AT&T version (didn't change anything on startup), and it was working fine to send and receive. After I got this new Fuze, I tried to do the same thing in installing the language pack and the Input SIP, but then all my recipients complained that all they saw was question marks. Now, I can read Chinese texts just fine on my phone, but when I send them, no one can read mine. I tried to copy and paste chinese that people had sent me to isolate whether it was just the Input's problem, but copy and pasting also results in only question marks. I reinstalled the language and Input cabs to see if installation went wrong, no fix. Yesterday I went to more extremes and first hard reset my phone to start from scratch...yet still had the same problem. Finally I decided to try a hard reset to basic Manila and not the ATT version, and after getting a basic Manila working, I STILL had the same problem.
So, please, XDA gurus! help! i'm so frustrated! All my other programs work fine, and english of course is no problem in texting, just chinese characters.
Hi,
Go to Messaging---options, check "use unicode if necessary", this may solve your problem.
Yes, THANK YOU! That worked perfectly! I never would have guessed something like that...or even know what unicode referred to. I'd been tearing my hair out for a while about this, thanks again!
you are welcome
I have a similar problem as Fuji, but only need to be able to see Chinese fonts for received messages. I just upgraded my stock HTC rom and with this new rom, lost the ability to receive or view Chinese fonts in text messages and word docs.
Is their a setting with the TP to turn on the Chinese fonts (not as main language, just ability to view)?
Hi everyone;
I am having trouble and had no choice but to ask for advice as i cant seem to find the solution!
I bought an HD7 off ebay UK. The phone was originally on O2 but the seller unlocked and unbranded it and sent it to me without testing its features!
Now it wont make phone calls, wont send texts, wont load IE! When i click on Phone tile, it goes back to main screen!
I dont know the original ROM details but the seller updated it to NODO update:
v7.0.7390.0 with Radio Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U
I am on 3 network! It does go online using SurfCube browser. It does send a text to a number but it wont allow me to read the ones i recieve!
He says it was working fine with him. But not working on 3 network! I also tried the Virgin sim card he left in it and it wasnt working with it either!
Could anyone help me update it to a proper firmware that would work with 3 network? I dont mind having 3UK branded rom... as long as it works, i am fine but i prefer non branded... with copy paste function if possible...
Please help...
Thanks...
I'd have a look in the device forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=783
If you don't get a fix for it then you could always dispute the transaction through PayPal...
I did look through the developer page but because i am new to this i am not sure if i can just use any rom to change the firmware! And it is rather complicated!
The question is, since i have v7.0.7390.0 with Radio Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U
can i replace it with any rom or does it have to be compatible with the current rom?
Thanks...
there was a rom posted on wmpoweruser.com
I have seen all of these before. This is what happen when someone select the wrong language in the ChevronWP7 Updater (for example English International instead of English United States).
The only way to fix this is with a ROM flash.
