ROM version 1.12.00 WWE
Radio version 1.13.00
Protocol version 1337.43
ExtROM version 1.12.131 WWE

download this file > http://live61.com/mda/yourownEXT.nb1 and follow Extended ROM steps above
It's complete Dump of my device, including CE ROM, EXT ROM and RADIO STACK. This update flawlessly worked on 3 devices i had in my hands.. So I hope, it will help you with no problems. (no need to change any 440bytes and other 'hacks' found there in forum).
Install is so easy
1. download NB1 file http://dc.live61.com/mda/Imate_WWE_1.12_1.13_1.12.131.nb1
2. write it on your SD card (at least 128mb) with NTRW application - "ntrw.exe write Imate_WWE_1.12_1.13_1.12.131.nb1 g:" (g: as your SD card drive letter)
3. insert SD card to MDA, and enter bootloader with CAMERA+POWER buttons together with RESET
4. after about 8 seconds you will get message with "Sections=2, press Power.." so press Power button and wait until "Checksum OK" message appears. Then reset your MDA
Thats it!
Customized Extended ROM
1. install this plugin to your Total Commander. (restart of PC needed!) http://live61.com/mda/VirtualDisk_1.30b2.rar
2. mount as an virtual image yourownEXT.nb1 file
3. make here your desired changes and unmount it
4. run WinHEX, open modified yourownEXT.nb1 (ouch.. i know, you need this.. http://sweb.cz/ftp1/WinHexSerial.txt)
5. select whole file with CTRL+A and copy to clipboard CTRL+C
6. open Imate_WWE_1.12_1.13_1.12.131.nb1 file, go to OFFSET 2C0019C and write clipboard data with CTRL+B
7. save Imate_WWE_1.12_1.13_1.12.131.nb1 and follow Install steps
If anything goes wrong, please let me know. Good luck. John

Successfully created BigStorage for 1.13 English ROM

Thanks to the resources at this site.
I have just created the BigStorage for the WWE 1.13 ROM on my i-mate JAM.
I have kept my 1.13 radio ROM (instead of the shipped 1.12 radio ROM). So, my device information is as follows:
ROM version: 1.13.00 WWE
ROM date: 08/18/05
Radio version: 1.13.00
Protocol version: 1337.43
ExtROM version: blank

I did the exact same thing today! Nice to be able to pick and choose amongst the different parts of the ROM

Can you post a link where the 1.13 ROM is located? I just searched the ftp site and didn't find any.
Thanks in advance.

I guess they are using the Dutch Rom (WWE base) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=31249).
Any change & different compare to 1.12 rom???

Yes, that's the ROM I used. Haven't noticed anything different yet, though. But the old 1.12 ran very well for me, so I didn't expect much to change anyway...

did you use your backup ??? how it fit in new 1.13.rom?

ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Shipped_ROMS/NL_11300_131_11200.exe
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Radio/MagicianRadio_1.13.00_maupgrade.zip
I used Sprite Backup under the 1.12 ROM and have no problem in restoring the files to work under 1.13 ROM.
You should of course first copy your original files in BigStorage to your SD card or PC.

thank you a lot !!!....
& what about bluetooth bugfix, did you check it??? tell us about...

The only new file in the Extended ROM seems to be Camera Wizard RC28 instead of RC22 that was shipped with some 1.12 ROMs.
Camera now becomes version 2.70 (build 21026), with both screen and menu in landscape display. The older build 20112 came with screen in landscape and the menu in portrait !
Album is now version 2.51 (build 20745).

People pm'ed me to ask for the 1.13 BigStorage ROM.
I simply upgraded to 1.13 with the shipped ROM and used hex editor to search for 02 00 00 80 00 20 and replace with b8 01 - this is the best method to obtain BigStorage.

1.13wwe ROM image--->FTP
Talents,
any chance to upload the 1.13 image to FTP? Couldn't update for a reason(as not able to find any 80 00 combo in the backup image strange....
ill try to replace 416 bytes from your image....
thanks in advane

can anyone upload ver. 1.13wwe image backed up FROM YOUR DEVICE to ftp please?

I downloaded it from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=173721#173721. It's in the first post. I upgraded last night to ROM 1.13 with BigStorage but installed Radio 1.13 instead of the original. Havn't seen any major iimprovements yet but will let you guys know if i discover anything.

Guys,
Can anybody upload to ftp the 1.13 magician ROM IMAGE (with big storage and preferably radio 1.13) FROM YOUR OWN DEVICE please?
As I cannot make a big storage myself on 1.13WWE for a reson I'd like to replace first 416bytes of your image with my header so it works for me.
thanks in advance

download it here: http://jainoxi.doq-net.com/mda/MA_TMNL_11300_131_11200_Ship_w_1.13_Radio_w_BigStorage.zip

@alelas
Please do some more investigating, before using the ROM of someone else. Obviously you are doing something wrong, since it works for the rest of us. If you don't find out what that is, you may end up crashing your phone big time, using a customized ROM from another Magician.

@Jainoxi - thanks a lot
@HBK: obviously smth is wrong...I guess the problem is in my corrupted SD card

Hi,
I am trying to get BS too, but can't find the byte pattern (I am not using the character option). Does this mean the rom-dump is corrupt or what? I have the original 1.13 tmo Dutch rom on a Dutch tmo mda-compact. So far everything working OK, but now I'm stuck.
Update on this:
Tried with MKS method and now I'm down to 'screwed'. I flashed back the changed file and now the 'storage-folder' disappeared, exr-rom still there, so I lost 7MB of ram. Even the original upgrade and flashing back the extracted rom did not solve my problem.
Can someone pls upload a correct rom-file with ext-rom intact, so I can restore to the original situation?
Greetings, M

Help: My German O2 Mini dead

Dear all expert,
While trying to flash my German Black O2 mini from Ger to ENG. (Using MAupgrade_noID)
After some steps, the o2 mini turn black and display
"Serial V1.02"
At this time, even though I softreset or hardreset the device,
the same wording also appear and can't further boot.
I even use SD card method but the same wording still appear again.
Can any expert teach me how to rescure my device?
Thanks

Are you sure you did the SD-method right?
At OS 1.13.01 GER Radio 1.13.00 BigStorage you will find the latest german BigStorage ROM image available. Now do the following:
Get ntrw from this site
Get a 512 MB SD-card (maybe a 128 MB one will work, too, but I am unsure about this).
Put ntrw into C:\
Extract the RAR into C:\, which should produce C:\11301bs.nb1
Enter the following into the command line at C:\:
Code:
ntrw write 11301bs.nb1 [your SD-card drive letter, e.g. I:]
, ignore error messages
Fully load your Magician!
Disconnect your Magician from anything, especially USB
Shutdown your Magician (press power button)
Put the SD-card into the Magician
Put Magician into Bootloader-Mode (Camera+Power+Reset at once, until you have the "Serial 1.02" screen w/o backlight)
Wait some seconds for "Press power to flash" to show on screen. Do just that.
This might just work.

Thanks KK.
What's wrong is that, it seem the bootloader is dead.
WHile I input the SD card while enter into the bootloader.
The screen still display "serial V1.02" and hold it.
No further wording like "Press power to flash it" etc.
Is it the bootloader is dead?

I do not think so. Make sure you shut down the Magician before placing the SD-card with a fresh ROM-image written to it into your device. Power on into Bootloader-Mode afterwards.
Another option to check your loader is the following:
Shutdown the Magician
Go into Bootloader-Mode
Wait for "Serial 1.02" to be displayed
Connect to PC via USB. The Bootloader should display "USB" shortly after connecting. If it does not: Maybe really you managed to kill your loader.
What exactly did you do? I used the NOID-Tool too, and had absolutely no problems with it. Besides: I also have a bootloader version 1.02.

kk
While plugging the usb cable to the device , yes, it show "USB" on the screen then.
However, when I use the romupdate.exe and try extract the rom into SD card at this time. After pressing "d2s" , the device shut down at once. No words appear on the screen.
Do you know what does it mean?
Besides, can you tell me what is "NOID-Tool" ?
thanks

The NOID-Tool would be MAupgrade_noID, which you used.
I am not sure about it, but as your device does not boot into the OS anymore, it seems reasonable to assume, that the ROM in your device is not valid anymore, due to errors while flashing it in the first place.
So - if there is no valid ROM, there is nothing, which the bootloader can write onto the SD-card.
Please try the method suggested in previous postings before anything else. If all this fails, I have no further suggestions - your device might really be dead.

You can try regular upgrade insted of doing it through SD card.
Danload shipROM, extract it and use MAupgradeNOID to run ROM and that is all you should do.

Hi there!
The FTP-master kindly converted the file to ZIP format. It is now available here: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/BigStorage_ROMs/DE_T-Mobile_1.13.01.zip.
Remember: I used a 512 MB SD-card to create it, so maybe it won't work with smaller ones (but I think it should, since the ROM stored within this SD-card-image is no more than 64 MB in size).

Hi KK,
I found it along with the other BS roms and feel ashamed I couldn't find them. I tried it first with my 512MB card, but the cardreader won't write the file (no question about formatting whatsoever). Tomorrow I'm going to try with my 256MB mini SD card, which I know will be written by NTRW. I'll let you if I succeeded.
Regards, M

It works for sure with my 512 MB Kingston SD-card!
Don't bother about an error at the end of the ntrw-writing process. That's absolutely normal, since it would like to make the SD-card-drive the current drive, which is not possible after the writing process, as the SD-card now contains a ROM-image instead of a valid filesystem.

Hi KK,
Didn't manage to get it flashing. I used both cards but my magician doesn't accept the image somehow. No sign of any message like 'press power to load', not on serial nor on usb connection in the bootloader. It did work before with my own dumped rom, but lost the storage than, but it did accept the rom. Now it keeps awful quiet, I copied the first bytes and all, so maybe I'll give it a try with another rom. I want to sort this problem out.
Cheers, M

nbfdec made my big storage
Hello KK,
Yesterday I tried with the steps from hlt, out of the radio 1.13 upgrade thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32274. It doesn't involve any rom dumping or sd-card action whatsoever and it worked first time.Just one tool: nbfdec and a shipped rom. It is fast and simple. Thanks for your advices, hope others will try this method as well, because it is much easier than bigstorager and bytecopy etc.
M

The "no SD-card required"-method in this thread only works for shipped ROMs. The ROM i prepared is a combination of the latest german OS & Radio versions plus BigStorage, which is to my knowledge _not_ available in this combination elsewhere, and should therefore be the most up-to-date ROM usable for any german magician user with very few simple steps.
Since you require a non-german version, my ROM will not be appropriate for you, but this thread started out with a cry for help with a non-booting magician, and I thought, that my ROM-modification would be of some help here due to the simplicity in applying it and its actuality.
But be it as it may.

KK,
I had the same problem as Netmon, only bootloader and I couldn't make the sd flash. That's why I was looking for a decent rom. With the tooling found on this site I probably could turn my magacian from German to English again. Since all my storage was gone I could take the risc.
I solved my problem with the upgrade 1.13 thread and that method would have worked for Netmon to I guess, just put the magacian in bootloader connect to usb and flash with a German shipped rom or an altered version.
Anyway thanks for your time, M

Dear rilazi and all
The device has been proofed for dead by the manufacturer.
The symptom is
1) romupdate.exe can't detect the device
2) press softreset button can't reboot the device to normal screen, only display "Serial V1.02" on the screen
3) Use SD card method doesn't got any respone from the device, keep displaying "Serial V1.02"
4) Use shipped rom (with MaupgradeNo_id.exe) also can't detect the device.
I don't know whether it the V1.02 version of bootloader problem or not.
Before, I try to flash many time which it V1.01 with no problem.
So, all of the V1.02 German device (Black color Mini) should pay attention to it.

I have a bootloader v1.02, too. Absolutely no problems with flashing on my side.

Hi, I've a vodefone v1240 (HTC Tornado), i've tried to flash wm6 flash to it... but... i haven't super cid unlock... the flash is ok but phone always star in muticolor screen (botloader screen), i've tried to flash a lot of flashes but always get invalid vendor id or "only upgrade"... i've tried too with TyphoonNbfTool to edit nbf and change vendor id.. but always get the same mensaje ("invalid vendor id" or "only upgrade")...
How can i recover my phone? :S
Thanks

Hey Phil, Thanks very much for the update ! Your hard work is much appreciated here !!

Me too
I'm having the same problem as Sendoa. I flashed the WM6 ROM to my 8310but after 100% completion, the phone re-started in bootloader mode.
I can flash it again with the WM6 but the same thing happens each time (bootloader mode). I've tried to flash with several other ROMs but each time I get the "Invalid Vendor ID" error before flashing begins.
I've tried the Typhoonnbftool tool to change the header as suggested earlier in this thread but without any success. My CID is 'DNG_0501'. I'm still stuck in bootloader mode.
I'd appreciate any assistance.
Thanks,
Straker.

Sorted
Sorted. Found another ROM (the fifth I've tried) that would flash without the 'Invalid Vendor' message. It let me get back to a standard WM5 setup.

Solved
Thanks to all
I flash it with a cingular flash with version changed to 79.79.79.79 and operator changed to VODA0504, and work again.. then i've unlock the cid and flash wm6 flash and it is working with it
Thanks again

Wow, that's cool, means I can flash my phone to WM6 without voiding my warranty ( I still got 5 months left )

How to get a Kaiser to display Chinese ?

Hi everyone, I just got my first smartphone, an AT&T Tilt (HTC 8925) a couple of days ago. I'm happy with it except that I wish it to display Chinese when browsing webpages. I don't need the interface to be Chinese, nor do I need to input Chinese. I just wish when I visit a Chinese website, I'm not seeing blocks.
Don't know if this makes a difference, but either traditional or simplified Chinese would work (I read both).
Searching the whole forum didn't give me much. Probably people had some discussions before, just I didn't find them yet.
I'm totally new on smartphones. Any help is very much appreciated.
info on the phone:
ROM version: 3.57.502.2 WWE (since shipped I didn't flash the ROM)
ROM date: 07/17/08
Radio version: 1.65.21.18
Protocol version: 25.88.40.05H
I just flashed the SPL to Kaiser-HardSPL-3.56 following instructions. BTW, which version should I use, 3.56 or 3.29/28?
I did not flash the ROM, b/c I'd like to find out more on Chinese language support.

Be sure to backup your device before you try. I am not responsible for any data lost. Your might need a hard reset if it failed... But it is the cab that I have been using for English roms for many devices and it will likely work for you too

you shoud find a chinese font file'ttf',and repair reg

Thank you for the suggestion. I just installed it on my official ATT ROM (WM 6.1). It showed installation successfull. It also said it may not display properly b/c it's designed for a previous version of Windows Mobile.
Anyway, then I visited mitbbs.com and www.sina.com.cn as a test (using Internet Explorer). Both did not show Chinese. I also tried changing encoding to Unicode UTF-8 and it didn't work either. under system settings, I looked at regional settings and didn't find anything Chinese.
Is there any configuration that needs to be done? Do you happen to know what ROM floating in this forum for WM6.1 can indeed incorporate this O2 Chinese support?
Thanks again

For regional setting, check the size of your wince.nls make sure it's > 1mb in size (typical English only is only 300 - 400k in size). But if you already planning to change yr rom, I highly recommand your try my rom. It's pre-configure for Tradition Chinese (HK, mostly), but will work on simplified chinese as well.

It's hidden file under \Windows. Therefore, must use "show all file" in order to display it.
cproaudio, all listed below support Chinese writing

CE star

I tried installing CE-Star 2.8 Chinese support on the shipped ROM and it worked.
I then flashed the ROM to Jack's cooked ROM and it works great now. Thank you, Jack.
Thank everyone. This forum is great.

Instructions to migrate ATT WM6.1 to Jack 2.6 confirmation
Dear All:
I just got the same phone as" CTRC above" but to ensure that I dont make any mistake on updating ROM using Jack's V2.6 from ATT Tilt WM6.1:
ROM version: 3.57.502.2 WWE (since shipped I didn't flash the ROM)
ROM date: 07/17/08
Radio version: 1.65.21.18
Protocol version: 25.88.40.05H
I read all of the above . However, to ensure that I dont run into wall,
Can someone post the step by step instructions including any potential "landmine" on how to migrate from the
ATT ROM above to Jack 2.6 ROM including the instructions if I need to install
those pre-requisites (Soft and Hard SPL ?)and proper Radio ?
Many Thx

Wiki is your good friend here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=KaiserIntroductionToROM_Flashing

Hi Jack:
I had already unlock the ATT tilt using unlock code ...Do I still need to run step one below?
1. CID-unlock your device by following the instructions at pof's HTC Kaiser Hard-SPL v1 - CID Unlock & Flash any ROM to your device (4 free)-thread
BTW, I did get the "white screen" on this phone ... and follow the instructions to :
- 1a. download the 5 attached files
1b. pull out the battery, REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !! and reinsert battery (this step *is* important)
1c. connect your PC to phone with a USB cable
2. copy JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe to your device and run it (make sure the USB cable is still connected). If you still get a white screen then reset your device and now try JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe ...
The step (2) above , copy the JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe to the device ...Pls advise which folder and how to run it after taking the SIM OUT ?
Thx

White Screen Issue
Hi Jack:
JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe to your device and run it (make sure the USB cable is still connected). If you still get a white screen then reset your device and now try JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe ...
Are these JumpSPL1.56 or JumpSPL1.93 run from PC or the terminal device itself ? How do I run these two ".exe" files in the device ?
Why am I getting White Screen and others devices dont get white screen ?
Thx

Anywhere. I would copy it to the top level (\). Even if you took your sim out, you can close the phone page (which complaints about sim) by tapping the top right corner or the hardware red button (hang up). Then use "File Explorer", locate the exe files that you copied and click on it.

Hi Jack,
I am new to the Tilt. How do I get to "File Explorer" ? I dont see it on the menu when I open either the "setting" or "programs" ?
BTW, when I run the JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe, do I also need to run the Kaiser Hard-SPL v1 again ? what's the right sequence ?
Thx

RESET
Hi Jack:
Is the rest pwer+camera+ "navigation" at the same time to get Tri-colour ?
if NOT, which three at the same time can "reset" ?
Thx
