Morning / Afternoon / Evening to All,
Not to be critical of this wonderful website which is full of great resources but, I have noticed that the useful info is hard to find.
So I thought it might be a good idea to post all of my items in the one place so here goes.
I will update these as i go.
TIP
If you want the CAB Files in remain in your PPC after install simply change the files preferences to "Read Only"
since i was just upgrade from wallaby to magician, i found all your posting, instructions and cab files very very helpful thanks a lot ampda, you rules :!:
Hello ampda , Great Work Friend . . . many thanx for these cabs and instruction files.
Cheers for taking the time to make them for the rest of us noobs
Glad to Help
verry nice indeed but there are simpler ways of doing the discribed below
(copied this out of pdf file )
3. Copying your “Extended ROM” Files before Big Storage
You need to copy the files from your “Extended ROM” before you go the Big Storage as you will need to install some of them after you’re finished, i.e. MMS etc. They will be deleted after the upgrade (and that’s the whole point).
a. To copy them from your Magician do a hard reset (push the power button and reset button at the same time).
b. Go through the screen alignment, time zone etc and get ready…….. when you reach the “Completed” screen it will ask you to “Tap your screen…. As soon as you tap the screen you get 3 sec to soft reset (push the reset button). If you miss it as I did just do a hard reset and try again.
c. After you do b. above go to the built in file explorer and under “My Device” you will now see the treasured “Extended_ROM” with all its files. Copy the directory straight to your SD Card then to your PC, keep them safe.
its just a bit easyer when you just fill in
go to windows folder on PPC and search loadvdisk.exe
run it and you will see your ext_rom (until you reset )
not to sure the usual file explorer can do this but Resco file explorer will find it
another progie that can find it is total commander :

Hi!!
Thanks for all your help!
Does anyone konw, or is there a way to save to the pc the SMS messages both received and sent??
Cheers!
use jeyo mobile companion. u can backup all of your messages, contacts (phone and sim), etc.
Hi!
Thanks for the tip!
By the way, and i think these questions are more tricky, is there any way NOT to charge the battery while the phone is connected to the USB?
And while using the calling software, when inputing the nunbers, to make the sim card entries dissapear and only have the ones that are in the contacts? Because most of the times i have a double entry and it really makes me mad!
Thanks!
The way to NOT to charge the battarie is to make some changes to your cable - cut +5v from USB (or make a switch).
the tray launch only app.... theres now way to BROWSE for the program you want on the tray?
sucks that you have to type out the entire path just to get it
Any idea whether these (or more specifically the camera speckles change) will work on a Wizard?
Remove Camera
Noob question here.
Once i install the camera & album to Storage how do i delete it from the \windows . Maybe not possible due to it being in ROM. In this case I end up with 2 camera software? So i'm curious what is the idea of installing in storage.
Halo ampda, i tryin to follow your how_to_ppc_upgrade.pdf buat I stuck in the step 4 backing up your existing rom to PC, in romupdate.exe I still confuse about the PORT things. can you help me to, which one to use?
please help...
thanks
Thanks for nice posting AMPDA..
I have a question,
I installed ampda_CameraV2.7b21026_RAM.CAB
but my camera version was 2.70 (build 18727) and it is still the same. I reset the device but still didnt become build 2026.
Do you have an idea?

Pillow write your email address. I'll send you them via email. (Those which are not device spesific).

Hi Lupusic,
Thanks a lot for your kind offer. I manage to pull up the files from the FTP using cuteFTP software. Some how my company laptop doesn't allow default browser connection....
My phone is O2 mini and has v.1.13 for both rom & radio. I think it's BigStorage (not sure though).
Any good advice for me? I mean anything at all....
Thx again

Guys, I'm not able to run Boot Image Tool. It gives me this error
Component 'mscomctl.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid
Any idea?
Thx....
Hi AMPDA,
Thanks for all your postings on big storage which gives detailed instructions step-by-step. Very brief and consise. Also now I notice you have put everything into 1 place like a table for pick and choose. Can it get any better ? Can't ask for anything more. You have so many useful cabs and instructions. I have benefitte a great deal. ONCE AGAIN Thank You.
So I swapped the iPhone for the Tilt, and so far so good. But now I have a questions about my wifes Pantech Duo.
It also uses Windows Mobile 6, but it is full of ATT bloatware, and is slow, locks up and freezes from time to time, and sometimes she has to reset the phone because it doesn't show her contacts, pictures etc...
I have searched all over the internet, and the only thing I can find that even relates to the phone, is a program that makes the slider actually work the phone when you slide it up and close it.
Any help would be fantastic as my wife is all over me lol...
thanks in advance,
memnoch
Hard reset & then soft reset as soon as the "The device will customize in three seconds" appears. Also check out SK Tools. You can do several performance tweaks & it's UI is pretty easy to understand.
Can't find the soft reset

Hrm...well I don't see a soft reset anywhere on the Pantech Duo, and I just did the hard reset, and it never went through the same customization setup that my tilt did, and all the bloat ware is still there
there is no reset button on it. its running a smartphone os your pretty much stuck with the rom on it intil some cooks one
There are quite a few differences between how WM6 Pro (Kaiser) works and how WM6 Standard (Duo) works.
I would recommend that you check out some of the Smartphone threads on this forum. Here are some things that you should look at doing.
1) Application Unlock your device (allows unsigned program installs, System Files and Registry changes, ect...) Search for a smartphone Application Unlock cab.
2) Look in the Windows\Start Up\ folder and delete any unnecessary start up apps (I couldn't tell you what to delete without looking at what is in there)
3) Delete unnecessary things from start menu (Windows\Start Menu\) This won't improve the speed but it will reduce clutter
Check out http://howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1267636 for more info on the Duo.
Hope that helps.

This link is for the security configuration manager for windows mobile 5, but I used this and changed the policy to unlocked, and it worked fine as an application unlocker on the Duo. Still looking for a cooked ROM, but guess you can't have everything.
Hey,
This is my first time flashing and i would like to know what kind of configurations i should write down for my mobile?(networks,addresses?!) as if i would need help i will not be able to get because of the flash.
The language of my phone is in german (and i only speak english)
thx
P.S
Is there a way to automatic backup\restore those confs?
Read the treads in the forum again and again before doing Your first flash:
Use Search-function to Search for more info..
And then read again....
This is the basic Newbie tread for first taime flasher:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356895
And make sure You have HardSPL installed before.
Definitely be sure to read the Kaiser Wiki and the various stickies regarding CID unlocking and flashing before you attempt anything.
If you are willing to spent 2-3 hours (more like 1 hour if you have good comprehension) reading before acting, you will have no trouble flashing your phone correctly on the first try.
hi,
i did read the faq and wiki,
there was no info about configuration backup (just sms email etc).
i tried to search aswell with no luck.
if someone can direct me somewhere more specific i would appriciate it.
thx
NO? Read the treads again!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356895
In The introduction point 6 it reads:
"6. Last chance to synchronize and/or backup files. All files and databases will be deleted after performing the next step!
(Optional: If you want to save your text messages and/or eMails, use a tool like DotFred's PIM Backup.)"
And there is a link to DotFreds PIM Backup Tool if You click the blue text! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705
If You don't like this tool use SBP Backup and/or Sprite Backup tool to backup your data. This software will backup Youe SMS, contacts, Emails, task and so. But not everything!
But keep in mind things (textfiles, videos and any other things) You have put on Youe device (not the memory card) will be gone! So Copy them to your PC or other media if not already done!
If Your are using a other languages OS (like I am: Swedish) and You try to flash a WWE (Wide Worls English) base ROM You can NOT restore System Data saved with SBP backup, just the SMS, Contacts, tasks appointments Email etc.
When it comes to settings (MMS or WAP etc) how did You configured them?
Manually or by using the Wizard? If manually then start writing them don't or make screen dumps. Use program like SOTI's Pocket Controller Pro or MyMobiler (freeware) http://www.mtux.com/
So start reading the treads again and again. When You think You know, read again.
I haven't flashed my Kaiser yet. But I'm reading all the treads. Learning from other mistakes. So I'm like You: In the want to flash stage and I'm 99% sure of How to do it (I have flsahed other devices so I not completely a rookie however). But I like to compare all the ROM's, performance and tweaks. What impact does Page Pool have etc.
I'm a cautious General.
thx alot
the problem is my device is in german so i am not sure if i get all the configs correct
what do i usually need to config basically? just manually picking my cell provider? and wap/mms?

You can aslo search for carrier specific cab files that will re-load your settings for MMS etc. Just remember to backup any info you think you'll need. Contacts, WAP settings, etc. I know the first time you flash you're being overly protective. That's ok, it'll get easier as you try different ROMs. Good luck!
thx alot guys
i backed up all the screens with informatio with MyMobiler
tomorrow is going to be a long day flashing i hope it will work out properly
thx again
So I have just flashed my device for the first time! It was no big deal if you read before clicking OK.
So I'm now running Dutty's DualTouch v4RTM.
OK I lost some fotos, videos and homemade ringtones wish I had in the device (the ROM), but I can live with that.
Now it has been alot of reinstalling different software which I just to have on my original Swdeish ROM. Not yet finished. But next time I flash another WWE ROM I can use the Systen Data from my backup.
Best of luck!
Hi, I'm pretty much a noob to this forum as you can see from my number of posts.
Recently got a HTC Iolite and been reading the forums, there are some things that I wasn't able to find, so I thought I'd just ask about it here.
Programs affecting interface
Currently I have the following installed, QM2.8, M2DC, PHM reg editor, Touchflo of course, I'm planning to try out SPB Pocket Pack and SPB Mobile Shell.
Here comes the confusing part, what's the difference between each of these? Which programs are a complete overlap? I read somewhere that SPB Pocket Pack and MS can complement each other, but for TF and MS, it's either TF or MS and not both together. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated!
About Hard Reset
I recently had a service.exe error after a soft reset. But it only happened once, I'm wondering whether it might have been caused by the installation of M2DC. So, I'm thinking of doing a hard reset. However, I do have some concerns. I have PAPAGO X3 installed when I first bought my Iolite. Upon doing a hard reset, will it remove PAPAGO as well?
What about programs that I installed on my storage card? What happens to it upon a hard reset? I'm sure it will have to be reinstalled, but what about the space it occupies on the storage card? Do I need to remove them as well, in other words, uninstall them first then do a hard reset?
Having said all that, I'm not particularly too concerned about the services.exe issue, since it's only happened once.
Appreciate any advice I can get! Sorry if some of these questions have been addressed in the forums, perhaps someone could direct me to the respective places?
hardreset return your device to how it was the first time you ever started it up
any program you installed after this will be gon untill you reinstall them
hardreset will not of cause change any programs located on the sdcard
but if any of those programs require dll's to be placed on the main device
or require some reg keys to be placed in the registry
then they too will require a reinstall

Does that mean that if the programs do not require dll's to be placed on the main device, I will still be able to find it immediately after a hard reset?
Hi there,
My TyTN II has been in and out of repair as 3 technicians do sweet F*** all every time I send my phone in. I'm sick of having to install all my programs again, customise my device to how I like it etc, etc etc.
So Like a PC, is there software that will ghost the contents of my PDA? Such thing would save so much time.
Or If anyone knows how to fix an intermittent touch screen issue (stock Rom, Radio, everything) than please share!
Thanks guys!
Cheers
