English T-Mobile MDA Compact ROM provided by Nowicom at last! - Wednesday 8 December
Nowicom have at last provided their customers with an English version of the MDA Compact / i-Mate Jam ROM for their customers to download and install. The procedure requires a blank SD card and an SD Card Reader, and a lot of downloading time! There are two files to download:
1 - The ROM itself (230MB). http://www.nowicom.com/dl/mda_compact_upd_en_1.zip
2 - The installation tools and guide (24Mb). http://www.nowicom.com/dl/mda_compact_upd_en_2.zip
The procedure involves copying the ROM onto your SD card using the ntrw tool and your card reader, inserting the card into your phone and flashing the phone. More information on the subject can be found in this thread, except it appears that you don't need to go through the process of using the hex editor if you use the Nowicom version of the ROM - it's a one-size fits all solution. Good luck! Please use the forum for any queries you have.

I get lots of "Page cannot be found". I'll try later...
I tried to restore my original T-Mobile ROM using my sd-card according to the manual in this thread. I used the ntrw tool (2.0) to write to my sd-card. This went fine, it wrote the nb1 file on the disk.
After that I hard-resetted my MDA Compact (Camera+Power+soft reset), but it didn't start downgrading my ROM. In fact, it didn't start anything!
It reaches the bootloader mode (dark screen with serial on it), but then it doesn't start anything from my sd-card.
I tried 3 different cards, but no result.
Anyone the same problem and/or know a solution?
T Mobile MDA Compact does not open, need HELP!!!
Hello everyone,
I'm new to this board and I read nearly all threads about MDA. I bought my T Mobile MDA Compact 2 weeks ago from Germany. Yesterday while I was trying to change its language to English its locked. I installed Windows 2003 SE then device restarted but not open anymore. Now I can not open it. When I try to open it on the top of the screen it writes "Seial" and at tthe bottom it writes "1.00 Version". What should I do? I need immediate assistant; can anybody help me to make my MDA Compact working again?
Thanks
AE
try a hard reset only.
Power + reset

There is no tool for it.
You will have to hard reset your device.
So it will install everything again.
When the screen comes with: 3 seconds to install software
Do I soft reset to it doesnt install the ext. rom
After that you can access with through explorer.

Unbranding

Hi
Problably lots of people already asked this. Believe it or not, I searched the forum and i didnt sow that many information about it. I have a mda compact customized with t-mobile software. Basacly I want to take the T-mobile Stuff out, it dosnt even let me set up a gprs account for another operator.
Any help would be thankfull
Ivo
your best bet would be to get the device unlokcke, ( see the unlock tool in the general section of the forun for the unkocl all in one tool) and then upgrade the rom with that of an imate's or qtek's
hope that helps
Jim
Hi
thanks for quick reply.
I unlocked it already. Its just the t-mob crap i want to get rid off. where about can i donload the roms ?
thanks
found the solution ...
just upgraded it with an original firmware and the no_id file
thanks for the help
Ivo
...and where can i find the original firmware and the no_id file? :?:
I would like to have my Orange m500 clean too! Only with the applications i'd like to use.
Can this only be done with installing those extendedRoms? Its very difficult for me to find a clear tutorial about this.
regards
The ext-rom brands your magician. When you want to get rid of it just
- make a backup of calendar, contacts, tasks etc.
- hard-reset
- folow initialize procedure on screen
- soft-reset as soon as you get the standard WM background & before the customizatiin (=branding) starts.
You need to do this last step after every hard-reset unless you go for BIG Storage & completely wipe-out the ext-rom & get a storage folder of 27Mb instead of 7Mb.
Instructions for BS are to be found on the forum. No need to search for a special rom, you can do it with your current rom.
Cheers, M
thnx @ oltp
I'll give it a try

Magician: Read-only CABs get deleted after installing

Hi,
Hardware: Vodafone VPA compact/T-Mobile MDA compact (HTC Magician).
Problem: CAB files in /Storage folder are being deleted after installation - even if they are read-only!
This only happens if they are located in the /Storage folder. I did a hard reset and soft reset afterwards to get a non-customized device but the behaviour is still the same, so this doesn't seem to be a customization "feature".
Any ideas?
Use CabInstl to install cab's. It will let you choose where to install & got the option to keep the cab.

Thanks for the hint. It looks like a good alternative to the standard procedure. However I do need an automated mechanism (installing CABs after hardreset automatically) which can be used from the extended_rom/config.txt and I, lacking detailled information about cabinstl, doubt that cabinstl can be used in "silent" mode using commandline parameters. But I'll give it a try. Meawhile we implement a workaround.
thanks.

Please assist-sorry to create new thread...issue after installing bg4all.

I installed bg4all after updating to the latest CHT 1.8 with editor. Now I have a blank (white) lockscreen and a blank (black) home screen. I've tried several times to add the home and lockscreen wallpaper with no success. I've deleted bg4all and soft reset as the problem occurred after the cab was installed. I've also un-installed HDWall and the HDwall patch. Please help as I don't want to have to hard reset. BTW, I'm stock US TMO with the upgraded 2.13 rom. Thanks in advance for the help!
In the future, please carefully read all installation instructions for any software you want to put on your device.
If you would have done this, you could have avoided the hard reset (after all, what is so shocking about this?): Cookiemonster clearly mentioned *not* to install *any* background mod or tweak, nor HDWall, as those functions are now part of CHT.
You might try to re-install CHT (turn off Manila/Sense, install, soft reset, turn back on Manila/Sense) before doing a hard reset...
