Uploaded. brand spanking new T-Mobile UK MDA compact ROM
(Now in the magician uploads sectiom)
R 1.12.00
G 1337.42
D 1.12_WWE
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Magician/
Full rom extracted using romupdate to 256mb SD card and extracted from the card using ntrw.exe. MDA was brand new unused and this rom has not been modified in any way.
Anyone tried this ROM? T-Mobile have had the most stable ROMS in the past ...
Maybe you misunderstood, this ROM was extracted from a brand new MDA compact that I took delivery of on Friday. It is not a modified ROM or a Qtek, its a genuine T-Mobile ROM on an MDA compact part no 99HAK026-00.
I extracted it wth romupdate.exe, copied from my sd card (256MB) using ntrw.exe and ftp straight up.
downloaded half of it last night but can't seem to download the rest today - please share again

Hi
So many people downloaded it that it blew my download bandwidth limit with my hosting company. I'll copy it to the ftp.xda-developers.com site, probably best place for it anyway.
Where abouts on the ftp site have you put it, and whats it called?
Thanks
Uploading it now to the uploads section, should be there in a few minutes
i cant find it too.
Cant wait to get it though!
Don't suppose T-mobile have applied the BigStorage hack by any chance??!!
Joking aside- thanks for taking the time to upload it Bobster.
thanks for sharing this.
At least someone has been good enough to since its quite clear T-mobile have no intentions of providing any updates to current users.

Few minutes is a good joke.... ;-) 256 MB are quite a much off stuff....
An other question is, why uploading twice? One time in the Upload folder and one time in the upload/Magician folder....
I'm going to split the file in the right size and will move it then in the Magician folder.....

Stefan
sorry for being a complete noob, but how do i install this .nb1? Last time i flashed my firmware it was a windows exe that installed it all for me.
The nb1 file is a ROM dump, which in this case you would have to follow the procedure as shown in one of stickies 'How to upgrade your rom to latest one' (or whatever it's called).
Cant seem to find the uploaded new T-Mobile MDA Compact rom?
Is it uploaded??

This link doesn't work for me... Any ideas why?
Some users experience problems using FTP via Internet Explorer. Try using a FTP client software- FTP Surfer is a free one- can't remember the exact link- try a search in Google.
Any other FTP client should also be fine.
Also make sure you are using the correct login details (change them from file menu in Internet Explorer>

!!! NEWS !!!
It has finally been uploaded and is in the Magician section of the uploads folder on the ftp site
at
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Magician/
I just re-loaded it on an oder MDA compact and it works fine , i find it always works if
1) Make a copy of your existing ROM on the sda crd using romupdate.exe as this seems to format your SD card correctly.
2) Copy your existing rom from the sd card using ntrw.exe BUT DO NOT FORMAT OR ERASE YOUR SD IN ANY WAY
3) Copy the new ROM onto your SD using ntrw.exe
4) Insert the SD card and boot to bootloader, about 8 seconds later it will promt you to flash
It is not a bigstorage rom , its a normal T-Mobile with extended ROM and seems to have the improved bluetooth and a two device comparison (old and new together) shows faster navigation around menus.
Good luck downloaing,

How do you change the Telstra System of my xda mini to an O2 system?
When I do a soft or hard reset a Telstra logo appears on the screen.
Would there ba a problem with this? I this even possible?
Sorry NEWBIE asking sirs!
The splash screen is changed easily to anything you like, just follow the sticky on the board. Changing your mini to O2 requires the O2 ext-rom files to 'brand' it. Visit the ftp ftp:\\xda:[email protected] for the ext-rom files. Best is to skip your current ext-rom (hard-reset, finish the initialization & just after the last tap on the screen you soft-reset quickly) & then install the O2 cab-files. Other possibility is to flash your rom. Visit the wiki (link on top of the page & goto magician & then exe upgrade) for this & get an O2 shipped-rom from the ftp (or anywhere else on the web).
Cheers, M
Ps I'd go for only the cab-files first. Flashing can be done later when you're more accustomed to your device.

Thank you!
How do I install the CAB file?
Which CAB File(O2 version) in the Magician folder is best?
Best? I don't know but watch out, there's a lot of Asian stuff in it. Usually the highest number is the most recent version & preferred.
Just put the cab-files on your device, preferable the SD card via Act.sync or card reaser, then start the file explorer on your device. Navigate to the location you stored them & click on them to install. Might be that you want to install CabInstl first, then you can choose where the apps from the cab's are installed.

Hi,
Does anyone know a way to extract .cab files from a ROM? The Case:
i've got a HTC Touch branded as "VPA Touch" by vodafone with vodafone's ROM (WM6Pro), but i'm using an O2-germany SIM-card (O2's ROM is older than vodafone's) and now i'm looking for a way to extract the homezone util's .cab. My attempts to find v2r's homezone utility on the web were not successful and the battery status plugin does not work properly on that phone.

You must copy it to SD, then copy it with a Resco file editor in the Windows folder of your phone. Good luck.
what directed by keko68 is correct
but don't forget to give her name the same as the name your orange splash screen, as well as file format and size must be equal in order to be able to work
for example : the name of your orange splash screen is Wellcomehead96.gif, then you also have to rename your file a new splash screen with the name Wellcomehead96.gif
