Hi !! everybody
I'm kinda new here. ...anyway, I'm waiting for my magician to be delivered next week. Can anyone tell me, which rom is the best rom for magician ? (compare for all brands - T-Mobile, iMate, O2 or what so ever) - which all aspects such as camera, bluetooth etc......
Thankz in advance.....
Ps...sorry for my terrible english
Your English is OK.
The T-Mobile ROM is supposed to be better than the Imate ROM because users of the Imate ROM complain about the speaker sound quality.
...but the T-mobile ROM is locked...or am I wrong... :roll:

The ROM doesn't dictate wether the phone is locked or unlocked.
The SIMLock does.
As far as I'm aware, the only locked Magicians are the T-Mobile ones from the Netherlands.
German T-Mobile MDA Compact is not locked.
I have bought my I-mate JAM from expnasys...and it is unlocked...so I can just update with the T-mobile ROM...and it will work as unlocked?....it is an English or German ROM?

p.s. I`m a new JAM owner...sorry :roll:

The process of updating to the English or German T-Mobile ROM is not difficult but the guide is not very well written.
It's not a simple update either.
Ok thanks, i will flash my rom with the T-mobile rom then!
But wich one, I believe there are more then one englisch T-mobile roms flying over the net, or am I wrong?
Could you please post the link of the rom we need?
thanks for your help!
Oh and could you tell me how to change the extended rom?

I don't know how to change the extended ROM.
I used the English ROM fro the download on www.compactjam.com
One of the messy steps in the process is copying the old ROM's header to the new one.
After i read many topics in this forum.....I think each one have its goods and bad points.....so my question is "Is it possible to combine and flash different rom together?". I mean sth like main rom is from T-Mobile, extended Rom is from iMate, camara patch from O2.....sth like this
pS : Thank for all the answer,everyone.....

I don't get the ROM versioning
I have recently acquired a T-mobile MDA in the Netherlands (Yes, it's locked! Don't start 'bout it!)
I got rid of the T-Mobile skin and colours, so i have some experience at working with ext-ROM, but I don't get the versioning thing.
According to my system settings I have ROM version 1.01.00 WWE (ROM date 10/21/04)
Radio version 1.00.10
extROM version 1.01.124 WWE
Do I have a prehistoric ROM version or what?
Should I upgrade? (I hear that T-mobile rom's are good)
And if i upgrade to, say, an I-mate ROM should I use xda3nbftool to change provider settings. (what does that xda3nbftool do exactly?)
Thnx in advance.
First let me say I am sorry for the multiple posts. This same message is on the general Magician forum. I think I shoul dhave placed the message here.
Please help!

I bought my Magician on eBay and it is the best phone I have ever had. The phone is amazing. But of course 2 months have passed and I am dying to improve the phone. The Brand is a DOPOD 818, which is the HTC Magician or iMate JAM.
I see everyone here has the ROM 1.06, mine is 1.01.00WWE with a ROM Date of 10/21/04/ I am sure I should be upgrading my ROM for the enhancements but I am not sure how or where to go.
Everyone says to go to Club iMate but unfortunately my IMEI is registered through DOPOD and not iMate. The DOPOD site does not look like it has an updated ROM.
Can I use a generic ROM? Where can I get one? I am in the USA using T-Mobile, if that helps.
Please let me know what I should do.
Thanks,
John
you will need to do a lot of readings before upgrading... and if your device doesn't have any problems then don't upgrade... the latest version from imate is really bad.. i have tried it and went back the old one which 1.03.00 ... anyways go to this ftp ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/
and you will all the latest ROMs....
Thank you for the information.
I will look into upgrading from the 1.01 to the 1.03.
John
Sorry to bother again.
Anyone know the difference between the following?
Dopod 818 CHT 1.03 Extended Rom
Dopod 818 CHS 1.03 Extended Rom

Hello,
I recently purchased a Krome Spy (www.krome.co.au) which is in all respects a Magician, except for a few cosmetic changes.
The system info is
rom version: 1.12.00WWE
rom date: 05/28/05
radio version: 1.12.00
protocol version: 1337.42
ExtROM: 1.12.136WWE
The price was right and that got the better of me and I bought it over the Imate Jam. Of course both are the same thing in different shells.
My question is.....
1. Can I update the ROM to the latest version?
2. Can someone tell me how I can do it? I am a physican, so my tech skills are not at par with you guys I need some detailed step by step instructions. ( hope I'm not asking too much)
3. Where can I find the ROMs and by the way what is a BIG Rom I heard some guys talk about?
Thanks in advance.
regards,
rohseq

The Krome Spy has the same casing as the Orange SPV M500, Dopod 818 and Vodafone VPA Compact. This style looks better, in my opinion, than the other shape used by the I-Mate Jam etc.
Hi Folks,
is there anyone out here in Germany (Munich?) who's able to do me a WM6 Upgrade on my XDA Neo? Honstly I'm not able to check out all posts to make it on my own... It shouldn't be for free ;-)
I have
IPL 2.09
SPL 2.15.000
GSM 02.19.21
OS 2.15.4.29
Please send my a eMail at [email protected].
Best regards,
oli
hey dude,
it's just so simple. reading this guide may help you. give it a try...
It's a harm that I'm living in Dresden and not Munich!
By the way: a WM6 upgrade is very easy! Just take a little look at www.xda-zone.de for a german manual, how to upgrade your Neo with a WM6 ROM image!
