hey Does any one have any tools to unlock the Extended Rom for my Magician (O2 xda2 mini), i wanna install some cabs in there pls do help.
1.Download Resco Explorer or Total Commander (cos you will need either these 2 program to enable "Reveal all files"
2. To unhide the Extended ROM, after you reveal all files, go to your File Explorer (Start, Programs, File Explorer)
3. Using the File Explorer, go to Windows folder and find this file called LoadVDisk.exe and then just run the file
4. Next, using File Explorer again, and go to \My Device and you should see the Extended ROM folder
5. Click on the Extended ROM folder and find the necessary cab file and click on it..
6. soft reset
also the search function is also quite useful. try it once in a while...
hey thanks for the advice will check on it, thank you.
hey man it works so how do i place another program in ext rom and will it be installed everytime i hard reset, and yeah since its unlocked how do i lock it again. than for the help hoping for a reply soon.
u cant place any new programs in the ext ROM. that ROM is supposed to be inaccessible to u. ur ext ROM should be hidden after the soft reset. check it!
You may not be able to place anything in the ExtROM till you unlock it. You have only "unhide" the ROM by running that utility. Till you unlock it you can only read the contents not write into it....
so tell me how do i unlock the ext-Rom of a magician, has anyone got any idea, pls let me know if there are any possibilities, i want to unlock the ext. rom of my O2 xda2 mini, pls help.
There are more possibilities read its content, (unhiding it). One possibility to hard reset it (pressing the Power button while pushing RESET). This will erase every data+programs from the device.
When the 1st boot finishes the ExtROM cabs are beginning to install. You have to Soft Reset the device (pushing RESET) to interrupt it. No cabs will be installed and ExtROM will be readable.

There are no unlockers for Magician AFAIK. But now most of the people go for big storage hack with which you get 27MB of extra space for storage. Put ExtROM on the SD card. Lots of material avilable on this forum for doing so..
what is the advantage of having a big storage other than ext.Rom, if i need to can i reverse the process back to normal.
The term “Big Storage” in a nut shell is the process of modifying the built in ROM file of the Magician and deleting its “Extended ROM” contents which frees up approx 20Mb of space. This new space or “Storage” can be used to install 3rd party apps etc and won’t be deleted after a hard reset. The only way to restore the contents is by “Flashing” the ROM again with a new complete ROM File. - excerpt from ampda guide
so what is the latest rom with the big storage for a magician. i surely would love to make a switch over. thank you.
The latest and last ROM for the Magician is 1.13 with Radio 1.12. Actually you can convert any ROM to BS.
My 8525 came in yesterday and I've been playing with it. It's a neat phone, and there's still alot to be discovered.
I was wondering how you can transfer or read SMS that are stored on the sim card? Is there a way?
I'm 100% sure that there are SMS on the SIM.
If you have WM5 AKU3.0 or above you should be able to read sms stored on SIM directly from the sms inbox (a long overdue feature)
If you don't have AKU3.0 or above install "SIM Messaging"
This will read all the messages on your SIM
If you want to copy them to your device install "Dopod smsBackup"
Dopod smsBackup is recognized by SIM Messaging as an export option
"SIM Messaging" & "Dopod smsBackup" can be found on here by using search
or you can find both programs (bottom of page)on the link below

Thanks Mister B.
How do I go about executing these files? They don't seem to be supported.

Did you download them from the link above !
If so the simMessaging is a cab file (looks like a zip file) so copy it straight to your device (storage card is a good place to put it) via active sync. Use the inbuilt file explorer on your PPC to find the cab file & then run it & it will self install.
The Dopod smsBackup is in a zip file, you will need to unzip this first on your desktop then transfer the Dopod smsBackup.cab file (choice of 2, chinese or English translation) to you PPC as you did for sim Messaging.
If your device states they are unsigned you could try installing "certification off" this allows you to install unsigned apps, can be found on the site above under WM5 Specific software I think !!
I have used these on WM5 myself, let me know how you get on.
That worked! Thanks!

Hi everyone,
Maybe a silly question but i'm a beginner... after installing a cab on WM6 can i remove it to gain some memory ?
Great forum, i'm learning a lot here
add and remove programs in settings

Hi!
I don't think the original question was how to remove the program, but rather if the cab file can be removed (if I'm wrong I apologize, but I interpreted the question different).
Anyway, yes, you can safely remove the cab file from the device after installing it. To remove the installed program use the method described by Rudegar.
It may be wise to store the cab files on the storage card, so you have them available if you have to make a hard reset.

PK
tks for the reply paalkr and yes that was my question. So i can delete or save the cabs on the storage card and will have no problems with my device if i understood well
tks again guys

Hi!
Thats correct! Put the cabs on the storage card. You can then install them from that location also, but I guess you already know that.

Hi everybody? I am trying to find a solution to a issue with sasimi on the new 6.5.X roms (with the start button on the lower bar). The issue is that sashimi cant install cabs to storage card. I searched the web and foud some ideas that u need to hack the sashimi.mrsc file but none of them was working.
Can anybody who succeeded in runing sashimi post his workoround? That would really help me. Thanks ion advance.
Nobody here uses sashimi?

Will it also still work with older winmo versions? Or does this break that functionality... thanks though! (Thinking of it, only using 6.5.x now anyway...)

Faaaaaaaaaantastic, it works.
Now, is there a way to install cabs to the device as well. I have tried "device" and nothing for the ASL directory, but nothing installs.
I have the Autoinstall facility on my rom but am a bit dubious to have have Autoinstall and Sashimi both working after a re-rom.

you need to install Sashimi program once in you device to storage card
1- if you already install Sashimi.cab you will get SASHIMI folder in storage card
2- copy cab's programs that you want to install in main memory to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\
3-copy cab's programs that you want to install in main memory to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\SC\
3-copy reg files that you want to install in SASHIMI\Auto\REG\
and so on
after you upgrade your Leo or hardreset it, run Autorun.exe from SASHIMI\Program\2577\
and chose AUTO

I just replaced my SASHIMI.mcsr and it does fix files installed to the device memory but for cabs installed to the storage card, I have to still select storage card and hit 'OK'. Then I have to go to the Home menu and come back to SASHIMI before SASHIMI will carry on with the next cab (in which then I have to repeat the steps for all cabs to be installed to the SC).
Anyone know what could be wrong?
I'm running: Energy.RHODCDMA.23549.Sense2.5_with_Cookie_HomeTab.Mar.20.7z
on a TP2
Me too
It seems that the "SendSpecial ("Down")" is not working and the script may be hanging on the command, or something like that. You don't see the selection change, so it could also be the "SendSpecial("Space")" not working. Either way, the "SendSpecial("LeftSoft")" just after is obviously not firing. Not sure why it's different now, but it apparently is. There used to be a "SendSpecial("CR")" instead of the "SendSpecial("Space")", so I'll try that to see if it's working again (worked in win6.1, not in win6.5). Mine's been working just fine, up till the very latest Energy ROM on my CDMA TP2.

I think it connected to the roms u are using. For me it worked with one rom, then I flashed other rom and I experencied the same thing as you.
sorry to ask, but so far I have no clue about Sashimi but would like to use it and read therefore as much as I could.
Is point 3 a typo?
>3-copy cab's programs that you want to install in main memory to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\SC\
shouldn´t it be:
3-copy cab's programs that you want to install in Storage Card to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\SC\
Sorry to ask maybe the obvious but for a newbie it is helping to sort out missunderstanding.

You're right there off course
I am having no luck with the v8.0 of Sashimi. I have the Artemis ROM (WinMo v. 6.5.5).
Auto mode only installs cabs from cab/ASL folder. I replaced the Sashimi.mscr with the one posted in this thread but to no avail.
Do you guys have any suggestions?
me too,
sashimi doesnt install (not works) for new artemis v7. It install all my cabs from auto/SC to device becasue it can not move cursore down anymore..
any suggestions?
I also had a problem with cabs not auto installing onto my Storage Card, instead they were installing to My Device. I have been doing some hunting around for the solution and i think i have managed to find it. (its worked for me anyway).
Go to SASHIMI > Program > Bin, BACKUP SASHIMI.mscr and then replace with the one i have attached. I am no coder so please don't ask me about specifics, there were just some hashes added to the beginning of a couple of lines of code. Like i say it worked for me, so hopefully it will work for you Let us know if it works for you. Cheers.
I'm surprised that either of the attachments on this thread works on HD2 Leo. I found that there is a very basic problem with mortscript and all sashimi scripts will hang. Two symptoms:
1) if not in flight mode, sometimes hangs during initialisation
2) if auto install to storage card, will hang (leaving you to select the radio button and press install)
and there is no easy cure.
