Anyone found a way yet to unlock the T-Mobile MDA Compact? Or will the XDA2UNLOCK tool be updated to unlock this puppy?
I read (I think on the Expansys forums) that the MDA Compact devices as sold in Germany (ie by nowicom) are SIM-lock free!
I have a Dutch MDA Compact, simlocked to T-Mobile :-( but with English OS
Wiz,
Then YOU have the Intellipad.cab and the Intellidialer.cab in English sitting in your ExtROM / Vdisk.
Could you post / mail those two?
Same questions for cprog.exe wich resides in the \windows folder . . .
BIG Thank you from all English non WM2003SE device owners!
You get access to the ExtROM /VDisk by after a hard-reset and just before the customisation starts soft-resetting the device.
Intellipad English and Intellidialer English. Now who is going to unlock my MDA Compact for me? ;-)
Thanks WIZ. IntelliPad is OK. But we need the file \Windows\cprog.exe to install IntelliDialer. Pls post here this file from your device. Pls...
Thanks u very much!
PocketMe: cprog.exe is a rom prog and thus cant be extracted from the device . . .
Its the rom filesystem that makes this impossible . . .
Read that in some old thread here
Correct, whatever I try, I cannot copy it. Sorry
Is there still no way to unlock an MDA compact?
Hello,
Wiz, could you post a zip with all the extender rom in enlish ?
Thanks
T-Mobile MDA Compact: Extended Rom English
Here you have the complete extended ROM. Now someone please find a way to unlock it
Update: Apparently uploading a zip file currently does not work. If you want to have it, PM me your e-mail address, and I will mail it to you (5.5 Mb)
Thanks but I don't see the link to download it ?
Can anyone PLEASE tell me how to uninstall Intellipad.
Once I installed it I could no longer get any input method to take place other than trhe keyboard. The options for Intellipad and Calligrapher and Block Recopgnizer were ther but it would not change to them when you clicked on them.
If it's not listed in Settings > System > Remove Programs, I'd guess you'd need to hard reset. :?:
Hi Wiz,
I also intend to buy a MDA Compact from T-Mobile Netherlands. You got the English one, didn't you?
I called to the T-Mobile Klant services today and they said they will send me the Dutch one.
I have no idea how it happens to the T-Mobile Netherlands.
Have you found the way to unlock the MDA Compact yet?
hmm the Dutch one?? I don't think that's completely true. For instance, only a part of the menu is dutch, and there is so such thing as dutch T9 yet.
But... where does the unlock tool stay? 120 euro :shock: is to expensive
Unlock Dutch T-Mobile MDA Compact
Did somebody already have information on how to succesfully unlock a Dutch T-Mobile MDA Compact?
It would be very nice to be able to use it with another provider SIM-card in it...

en easier to use it in english. Could someone help us to crack this simlock 8)
To be exact: There is no Dutch language PocketPC. All PocketPC's in the Netherlands are sold with an English operating system. So, the MDA Compact also comes with an Englsh Operating System.
Aside from that, I am not a developer or hacker, and I am not capable of cracking a simlock, sorry. I am also waiting for someone here to find the crack
Look here: he says "This rom is english unlocked". Has anyone with a Dutch T-Mobile MDA tried this ROM update to see if it unlocks the device?
Hi
I have a MDA Compact that have made upgrade from English T-mobile rom to English Qtek rom (then to I-Mate english rom).
Now i would like to return to T-mobile rom but did not make a backup.
I searched all the web for MDA Compact T-mobile ENGLISH rom but found only German version (ma_tmde_10601_130_10500_ship.zip).
Could anybody please help me find T-mobile MDA Compact English rom?
Thank you very much
why do you want to go back to a old T-mobile rom?
I do not know exactly. But i feel that t-mobile rom was more stable. And t-mobile, imho, looks better than qtek or i-mate.
Please if anyone could send me mda compact t-mobile english rom!
I've been using the latest Qtek rom and it's never crashed on me. Maybe its some software you are using.
Wouldnt mind a copy of the original ROM just in case I ever need to
return the MDA....

You are posting in the Blue Angel forum (XDA IIs) you have a Magician. Please post in their forums and read Wiki on updating the ROM to WWE version.

Hello,
I have a MDA Cmpact PM10A . Unfortunately, The software is in English. I would like to have it very much in German. Which possibilities Do I have?
Got me the error message Country ID, if I liked to install a software in German, wrong.
THX
So you have tried upgrading to a German language ROM and then it gave you the CID error?
Exactly
Have you tried to upgrade with the official software-update-file provided by T-Mobile or one out of the "Shipped_ROMS"-folder from this sites ftp by first putting the device into bootloader-mode and then starting the wizard? For me this worked where I had such errors while trying to flash my O2 mini to T-Mobile MDA (for ROM 1.13, both German) with Windows loaded.
Pls read the wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianRomUpgrade & use maupgradeut_noid in your update process.

T-Mobile Germany has a MDA (I used it for my MDA II with Windows Mobile 2003) ROM upgrade here:
http://www.t-mobile.de/software/1,8454,7483-_,00.html
I don't know if this will work for any newer MDAs since it was specifically released for the MDA II.
Use only magician roms for the pm10a & no prophet roms :!: & vice-versa of course.
When the mentioned rom is for the magician with WM2003SE & 128MB & the intel cpu, you can try at own risk. If it's for the ti omap cpu you're asking for troubles.

Hi,
my first post here. I've used the search function but I did not found an answer.
I've got an MDA Compact II (HTC Magician II i think).
With the old ROM (forgot to write down the version numbers ^^, i think it was 1.12) i was able to CID_UNLOCK using aWizard 1.3 beta 2, and then i've changed the bootscreen.
Now i've upgraded my MDA with the AKU2 upgrade from the German T-Mobile site.
My Questions:
:?: Is my phone still CID_UNLOCKED AFTER the AKU2 Upgrade?
:?: Do i have to CID_UNLOCK every time i start aWizard, when my MDA is allready CID_UNLOCKED?
After the Upgrade i can't CID_UNLOCK it :evil:, as many users report here too.
Thanks for your help.
Sorry for my mad english skills ^^
