I just can't figure out how I should create a Big Storage ROM for my SPV M500. All u guys seem to know quitte a lot about this stuff and talk about it like it's easy as hell however I don't understand any of the hacking of ROMS.
A colleague has created a ROM for his MDA Compact and when I ask him he says: "you just have to remove the CAB Files from the rom... (????????) "yeah o.k. but how do I get them out??" "Oh you just remove them from the rom...", "Yeah but how??" "I don't know anymore just remove them. Look it up at XDA-DEV.com". So i tried to find it on this forum however I've found a lot of very intresting stuff and nice to know thingies and so but was unable to find anything usefull about hte big storage on a SPV M500 so I turned back to my colleague again. He repeated to me "I only have to remove the CAB filesin the ROM" As I've heard him say that one time to much i spoke to him: "YEAH>..I KNOW... YOU TOLD ME TO BUT FOR CRYING OUYT LOUD !!!HOW!!!"
As you probably expected now there's nobody who i can ask my questions but you folks... =]
There's just no step-by-step guide how to pull this off. Can someone please provide me with a guide or are there any standard ROMS?? It seems to me that once someone created a big storage rom it will work on all devices for that type of PDA but i can't find any standard big storage rom for the SPV M500.
Help me please!!!! I need the extra storage room!!! =]
Thanks in advance
Kind regards,
Maarten

Hi guys,
I've just received my T mobile branded Kaiser. It's called the Vario 3.
As i am not looking to use the device with tmobile. Is it possible to debrand this device? If so, please explain how. My assumtption is that i'll need to upload a generic rom to the device.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Please read the forum first, before you post a question...
Especially the sticky threads...
To be short:
We know it's called the Vario 3 / Vario III
...
You can probably unbrand the outside by rubbing some sugar against the logo's (I don't take any responsability for this, but it's known to be working on a T-Mobile MDA Vario I).
Th 'inside' is also known as the ROM an can't be unbranded yet...
Just wait untill we are able to CID-unlock it, so you can flash the ROM with an unbranded one...
For now you can hard-reset (format) it and jst after the screen alignment when it's counting down for customization soft-reset it by pushing your stylus up the little hole in the bottom of your device...
Good luck...
Oh, and...
Welcome to the Kaiser forum
Hi,
Sorry for not reading the sticky stuff, i'm just not that familiar with the technical terms for these devices so i thought me asking 'again' novice-style may be cool. Thanks for your help on this mate.
No problem...
I started out this way too, so...
I can tell you it's really worth it to dive in to this forum...
You can learn a lot if you check the threads once in a while...
Be carefull with advanced adjustments to your device, especially when you haven't got the right ROM for backup...
On the other hand, don't be scared to try out some stuff, because it's very hard to brick a device...
BTW:
Bricking means you screw up youre device so terribly (beyond repair) that it's turned in to a brick / expensive paperweight...
Just tried putting in my vodaphone sim into the Vario 3 and it says SIM LOCK code needed....Any advice where to get one from apart from t mobile?
Sorry...
I guess you'll have to wait...
pof is working on a CID-unlocker and probalby on a way to SIM-unlock it too...
I heard it's a difficult procedure, because the way it's simlocked is 'new'...
Maybe you can try www.imei-check.co.uk...
It's a paid service...
Decide for yourself if you're willing to pay, or have the patience to wait for a free solution...
I'm definatley sticking with the last one...
Hi,
Is there anyone who knows if it's possible to upgrade my old Qtek9100 to WM6 (english) and how (mini installations guide)?
If this is possible do anyone know if it's possible to install HTC Home Plugin a la HTC Touch on my Qtek9100?
Look forward hearing from all of you...
Sure that you can upgrade to WM6 (because I, am a newbie, did it my self). Just follow instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
Do EXACTLY step-by-step and it'll naturally done, not complicated at all!
About HTC Touch & Plugin, i dont know because have never used. I'll try later...
The best thing is to READ first then ask questions...
One more useless topic!
Sigh...
thanks a lot
...but where do I find the WM6 for my Qtek9100 or is it the T-Mobile 2.26 ROM (and is this in german) who is the WM6? If not do you know if I can have free WM6 for my Qtek9100?

Oh no you can't! WM6 for the Wizard would cost you at least a hundred bucks...
Well maybe I have THE solution for you:
Once again: READ! for God's sake!
Dear Quiyaro
OK I didn't know that and maybe this is why I ask. I hope not I get you to be angry because it's seems that I did that. I have been trying to find out by reading but I can't find the answers I looking for therefore I'm asking again.
In the first place I was only asking if I could upgrade my Qtek9100 from WM5 to WM6 and I got a long list of things that I should do before but nobody told me before you that I should buy a WM6 also.
Thanks in advance. I think I'll drop to upgrade my PDA because it seems to be a little bit to complicated for me but if you can help me I'll be glad anyway...

Hi,
I have bought A Qtek 9000 (universal) from Ace hellas (Greek represantative of Qtek). I have read a lot of posts how to upgrade to WM6 but I am afraid to do anything without be sure.
If I am not mistaken, my ppc (from Ace hellas) was locked. So I cant backup extender rom and etc that suggest all upgrading methods.
Is there someone who have passed WM6 in such a device from greece? I want exactly the steps and what I need to do! In order to not 'brake' my lovely device!
Thanks for your support!
Read the WIKI
Hello and welcome to the forum
The best advice I or anyone else can give you is go to the WIKI and READ! honestly, you will learn far more and know what to do than someone telling you bits. It tells you everything you need to know, all the problems you could have, and how to get round them. DO NOT dive in and try before you know what to do. Do this and you will have many happy hours using your device, jump in and you will have one expensive door stop my friend.

First you need to know if you have a CDMA device or a GSM one (with SIM card)
Then what OS want WM or Android
And then head over Rapahel section where you can find all kinds of guides to do what you need:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=437
Good luck,
first of all, thank you for your reply; no one has replyed since ages... i think it is GSM, i bought it from Orange Romania and it works with a SIM. i have windows 6.1 , an i like the fact that i can edit word documents and so on... i know nothing about the android but i would like to change my rom/software for better battery and performance (it kinda laggs although the memory is at 39% and the windows 6.1 interface is.... -.- horrible to say the leaast)
i would like a guide for stupid people that have never had the chance to temper with their phones software.
best regards, bobby
