pmemdump and Magician

Hi,
Well, we have used the pmemdum tool to make a backup of imate jam rom (pmemdump 80000000 4000000 rom.raw). So the next step is "how can we use this file to flash this rom on our mda". Any idea ?
Thanks

I already did that with an imate JAM and my MDA compact you just have to overwrite the header of the imate ROM with the ORIGINAL header of your MDA Compact then use ntrw to transfer it to an SD card and get your Compact into bootloader modes with the SD inserted wait for a few seconds and it will tell you to press the power butoon to flash! :wink:
Mine worked fine! The problem is How can we copy the Radio ROM and flash that too since it seems to be a newer version?

no katsj, files are totaly diferents. there is no header, there is no more than the os (ms+extended). I tried to add my german header before without success...

No effect! When I open that files I see the rest of Jam header, so I copy my Ger header from 416b even from 485b. Nothing! And the other interesting thing in original T-mobile ROM MS starts from line 0000001190 but in that jam ROMs it starts from 0000001000 line, 190 is missing, but when I try to add missing header noting change. If any of you guys would be so kind to post normal (as it is no changes) Jam ROM made with mtty n2b tool and zipped till 20mb I would very appreciated!

OK, so now i know how use it :
Make a backup of your rom using the classic process (bootloader, mmtty and d2s but enter "d2s 80000000 4000000".
Download the backup using ntrw
Open your backup with HHD Hex editor
OPen the imate rom
Select all the imate rom (CTR+ALT+END) and edit>Copy
Close the imate rom
Go to the offset 19c on your backup
Edit>Paste
Save your backup
Transfert the backup to your SD
And now the classic process : bootloader with the SD card, power to start the falsh
You will have the classic checksum erro but it works.

That file was not uploaded by me! I didn't manage to upload my file that includes the header! But you solved the problem!
What we have to find out now it HOW TO DUMP THE RADIO ROM. iMate JAM has a newer version of both the radio ROM which is R 1.01.00 and not R 1.00.10 and also the second part of the ROM on imate is G 1337.38 and not G 1337.36 as on our MDA Compact. Any ideas how can I dump those two parts of the iMate ROM so we can fully upgrade our MDA Compact?????
Please be fast as long as I still have the iMate JAM on my hands!

Did everything as it was written here! It started to download checksum was error, but after hard reset nothing happened. Compact was dead, totally dead, black screen nothing! Thank God the boot loader was working, so I restored original ROM. Any ideas why it happened? :evil:

Ok! Jam ROM is working, but I see no dramatic changes from T-mobile. More of that, customization failed because it tried to load some Arabic settings. Was it worth it? May be somebody would post original Jam ROM from England?

Nick-II..
What did you to to get it working the second time ? I had the same "dead" problem......
The windows should be diferent... 1.0.3 WWE instead of 1.0.1 WWE for the arabic problem... give it reset just afer the first time you see the Today screen, and manualy run the cab files in the Extenden rom. with out all the arabic stuff.....
You can also leave all the stuff out you don't need, like the KSE Fax stuf.. Saves some program memory.
Cheers.

Pinooo, Mda was dead but boot loader was working, so I decide to do a pure experiment. I returned my original German ROM to Compact ( I had a copy since first English-MDA_NL ROM Flash) Then I copied it to SD using MTTY with d2s 80000000 4000000, after as it was written above. ……so I had a SD with Jam ROM, but friendly speaking I replaced it back with MDA-NL. JAM ROM was not so stable, my compact used to self reset and hanged up few times. So it is better to wait until official MDA WWE NL ROM I suppose it would be soon. Now my device working just perfectly comparing to MDA II and I am very happy with English ROM. All that dealing with Jam ROM and other stuff is just a sport to me!

Should I remove the SIMCARD During Rom Flashing?
Iwant to do an English upgrade for my MDA Compact bought in Germany.
Must I remove the Simcard first during the whole process? or can I simply do it without having to remove it?
BTW, what is MMTY? is that already in the 240,000 KB Zipped file? or should download it from somewhere?
Please help me. Thank for your help in advance.

MTTY = romupgrade.exe
And the imate JAM ROM is tottaly stable! And there is a dramatic improvement in the pictures quality and the video quality! Video is smooth and does not have those vertical brakes anymore.
I guess your copy of imate JAM ROM was corrupted since I use that ROM in my MDA for a week now and I didn't have a single Reset!

ROM 1.06.116WWE

this afternoon i found an update on the swedish qtek site.
http://www.qtek.se/default.asp?nc=4484&id=127&element=0
wonder if it could be used by english speaking users? it says WWE, so i guess it is in english?
i'm uploading the unpacked installation folder to FTP now. maybe someone who knows his thing, could magic a .bat file with the correct checksum to change the carrier and language? [pinoo? ;-)]
the file is called: MA_Qtek(BrPt)_10600_116_10500_SHIP.zip

Hi there..
I will take a look... But my device is with PocketPcTechs at the moment... Getting 128MB RAM ... WOOOOOOOOOOOT
:lol:
Cheers

has anybody yet found out what the passwords for the rom files are?
btw, have the last ones (the imate rom for example) been cracked or did anyone blurt out the right keys?
cu

A bad traduction :
Click on the links below in order to update your Qtek S100. Follows installationsguiden careful in order to few a correct updating.
ROM 1.06.116WWE
(updating from ROM 1.03.148WWE to ROM 1.06.116WWE)
The updating is only for Swedish sold Qtek S100 with software version 1.03.148WWE. In order to check which version you have pressures Start>Settings>System>Device information, you find the information on ExtROM version. If you try to update with another version of software can the to damage your Qtek S100.
The updating ROM 1.06.116WWE contains:
GSM-radio software
MMS client (2.0.0.20)
Caller IDS
Phone PAD Swedish T9
Updated Blåtandsmjukvara
Installationsguide ROM 1.06.116

actually it was pretty clear that qtek only offers their support to their respective customers. Nevertheless it should be quite possible to gain advantages out of an alien fw ;-)

...so it could not be used for I-mate JAM and other models.... :roll: If someone has updated the firmware pls report the "improvements"...
Regards,
Primoz

Yes and please send us (or push it on the FTP) the content of ExtROM.
Thanks !

Anyone upgraded yet?
Hi, has anybody yet tried out the new QTEK ROM 1.06? If so, could you be so kind to make a ROM image and put it onto the ftp? Guess that'll be way easier than finding out some passwords to change the update-files?
thank you!

Why couldnt this be installed on non-swedish qtek s100?
Seems like an normal english rom-update
Wonder what it is with the bluetooth.
Cause the stack that is installed now is way to slow.

We need the passwords so xda3nbftool can be used to change operator id. Then we get past the Country id error...
So if anybody know the passwords that would be nice...

it cant be used out-of-the-box because the upgrade tools checks for your device-id, the carrier-id (which must be the one of qtek), the language (which, as you've said would fit) and the rom versions.
Thus, at least the carrier id would be different which is enough for the upgrade prog to abort. So there are 2 work-arounds:
1.) using xda3nbf-tool which requires the rom-passwords to decode the rom, change the parameters which are checked and re-encode the rom. Unfortunately anybody knows the passwords yet
2.) do a rom backup of a succesfully upgraded qtek-device with the bootloader-method which gives you *one* file that contains all the radio, the ext-rom and the os rom. This file needs to be modified by a hex-editor (which actually means to replace the first 412 bytes from the qtek-backup with the first byte of your own backup) --> restore the edited file et voilà: it should work. Unfortunatly anybody has posted such a backup yet...
conclusion:
way 2) is easier (at least we dont need any passkeys) nevertheless we still need that backup...
regards,
André

sorry, my upload was broken... should be ok now. the file is called MA_Qtek(BrPt)_10600_116_10500_SHIP.zip and you can find it in the Magician folder on the xda-ftp. it's basically just the unpacked installer.
could anybody tell me how to write a proper .bat file, like the one pinoo did for the i-mate rom? i suppose i need to change the 0x20040522... numbers to stop the installer giving the "invalid checksum" error?
...and reading the last post these numbers seems to be the passwords Guest was talking about...
any chance of getting them?

Be careful with this ROM. I tried to install it and now my Compact is dead . I can't reflash it anymore even from SD card. Tried everything and now it is in service-center. They are triing to fix it but still with no success ((

BTW you can install Radio ROM without any passwords and xda3nbf. Just remove all other .nbf files from directory and run update - and everything is OK without any mistakes. Problems appears after other upgrades (nb and mk_).

Just upgraded my Imate Jam radio stack to this one and seems that it improved phone sound quality a lot or am I just hoping so ?!
However no problems with upgrading the radio stack only!

Hope you can solve your Magician problem. Which file did you use to upgrade your PPC: MA_Qtek(BrPt)_10600_116_10500_SHIP.exe or MA_DANG_WWE_10600_115_10500_SHIP.exe.

MDA Compact on Orange - no MMS

Hi, just before I launch into my first post, just like to say this forum has been an amazing source of info, I'm a new MDA compact owner and have already unlocked it, upgraded to the 1.12 ROM and applied the bigstorage patch, wow, it was actually quite easy.
My question relates to MMS functions and since upgrading and modding, I am unable to send or receive MMS on my compact. I have installed the Orange conract CAB files and I can browse the internet etc, just when I receive an MMS I get the text message telling me to go to the website and view it.
Anyone any ideas ?

Hi, Do you have a SPV M500 ? Can you tell me how you did to update it with rom Qtek or Imate ? Please...

give orange cs a ring, your mms is not enabled on your account, i bet its a new contract/sim yep??

Nope, its not a new SIM/Account, it works perfectly in another handset such as a K750i or Nokia 6680.

Its not an M500, its an MDA compact, we dont have the M500 in the UK yet. I wouldnt mind a copy of your M500 ROM though
It was pretty easy, downloaded the Qtek 1.12 rom, installed it on my laptop and it extracted itself into a temporary directory. I couldnt install straight away due to the country error so I copied the file MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe into the directory where the files were and ran that. About 20 mins later I had a brand new 1.12 rom installed with the new ROM and new RADIO etc.
I backed up the ROM using the romupdate.exe tool to my 256MB SD card, read it from the card using ntrw.exe , used hexeditor to change the appropriate strings and re-wrote it back to the card using ntrw.
Hard reset with the card installed , two mins later it asked me to press power to flash and about 15 mins later job done
I had an MDA compact with the Qtek 1.12 rom and radio and the big storage hack. I then picked what I wanted to install from the original t-mobile extended rom and job done, all done in less than an hour.

Fixed it, had to install the mms application from the extended ROM , works ok now.

If anyone wants a copy of the patched ROM, let me know and I'll upload it onto my ftp.

ERROR 011: EXECUTE REMOTE COMUNICATION PROGRAM ERROR

When I try to upgrade my i-mate JAM to a new special ROM from Kichen after a step this masage apears "Cannot execute the remote comunication program. Plese make sure that the USB/Serial cable is properly connected.
so guys plz help me urgent

Does the same error come up when you flash with a shipped-rom which hasn't been changed?
Does your device respond to any commands from the update program? If so, what happens on your device?
And what did you change in the rom?
As you probably guessed: I don't know an answer to this & i'm trying to figure out what is different in your setup compared to a regular update.
Regards, M

Thanx 2 reply
No dear every thing is OK When I try to update with shiped ROM it works 100% no problem. When I click in my computer the device is located and opens software installs nothing abnormal every thing is as usual, But when I try to update it with special ROM (got from Kichen that I like very much) the folowing masage appears

I guess that romkitchen isn't compatible with magician :-(. You can try to put in the GetDeviceDara.exe from a shipped-rom in the appropriate romkitchen folder, maybe it helps. Cause I love to see this working.
Good luck, M

Let me do it
The rom I got is for windows 2003 SE so I think it should work, now let me act your advise then i'll inform you.
regards

The same problem i have
I try to update one of my friends i-mate JAM in a dfrent PC but the same problem I got. I think the rom is not compatible with JAM. Do you know another ROM to work on my JAM like available in Kitchen???

Well I haven't experimented with RomKitchen & don't know what you want to achieve with it. Ext-roms can be edited with bal666's tool too & there are loads of different (not edited) ext-roms @ the ftp.
& of course there's the BIG Storage hack, with which you trade in the ext-rom for an enlarged internal Storage folder.
Haven't seen anyone yet who really edited the CE image :-(
M

Yes I tried but...
I tried big ROM but in 3rd stage the folowing masage appears "card incilize error" When it tries to back up ROM on SD card. I have MMC not SD Now may be this is cause or somthing other. Have you updated your device with big storage rom & is it OK???
If so I'll try again
I downloaded the ROM form this site http://www.romkitchen.de I updated one of my friends PPC from this site's Rom its performance is 50% increased. but mine (JAM) is not going to update

I did it with a patched shipped-rom :!: Follow this link & I think you should be able to manage http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianRomUpgrade
RomKitchen is also on this forum, but I think it's for other devices. You can find it in the wiki.
Cheers, M

Ok let me do it
Thanks dear let me download and check it. One thing that my JAM is from i-mate & there is T-mobie ROM, but its for Magician so should I do it no problem? Will I be able to reload its shiped ROM that I have already. sorry for my broken english

Yes it's no problem to use another magician rom, use maupgradeut_noid.exe to bypass country id error. To flash your current shipped-rom back just follow the same procedure.
Be carefull to backup your current ext-rom cabs though, they do contain some operator specific settings for eg gprs, voicemail etc. You need to install some of them instead of the TMO ones present in the TMO 1.13WWE rom. You can use WinCE cabmanager (available on trial) to have a look inside the cabs & decide wich ones to use.
This is my list of the Dutch TMO 1.13WWE ext-rom cabs anyway:

As a workaround extract the attachment into DEV\OEM\ and rebuild. I compiled it for the German AKU2.0 ROM.
Tnx Bepe for your great work!

IIWPO integrated into Himalaya ROM
Bepe offers us the great option to integrate this well-known theft protection into our ROMs.
Just extract the attachment into DEV/OEM. Open 97bd8b8c-5fe5-4bb1-8ede-f55865d7baf8.rgu with wordpad. Put in your name as you will enter it in the 'Owner Information' as well as a MSISDN to where short message should be sent in case somebody modifies the 'Owner Information'. Rebuild.
Works as is only on German devices. Modify '\Windows\Autostart' in initflashfiles.txt to appropriate folder name of your language (e.g. '\Windows\Startup' in WWE).
df2jh

Is this method designed for the Himalaya only, or would it work for the Universal as well?

I need some help to make DEV and ROM packages for Wizard (I've never used a Wizard)…
Maybe there is somebody there who already used mamaich’s tools to edit a Wizard ROM?
@thefunkunfaked
Sorry,
only Himalaya for the moment, next will by BA and Wizard.
Universal will by last because of the VGA resources (those make thinks difficult).
@df2jh
Wow.. great thanks, you are the first one building packages.
It’s the first time I hear about IIWPO nice app.

ActiveSync like WM2003?
My device now will be recognized as "PocketPC USB Sync" when connected via USB. That ´s the way WM2003 did it. It´s faster and more reliable than the WM2005 method via netwotk connection "Windows Mobile-based Device" and TCP/IP. Great, how did you manage that?

but we lose the network connection on it
now i can't surf on internet or connect the msn true the activesync
if somme one do it please advice
