Hi,
I have a German T-Mobile MDA Vario III (HTC Kaiser). The Phone is Sim Unlocked and CID Unlocked.
I want to give the phone to a friend of mine who lives in the US and has a US T-Mobile Sim card.
Could you guys tell me what ROM he should use and where I could download it?
I assume there is no US T-Mobile Rom for that phone so I might need to install the WWE Rom and manually? (and where do I get this data?) put in the T-Mobile USA Internet settings (or does someone have a US T-Mobile .cab I can install?).
Also Do i need to install a keyboardfixing cab?(The German Phone comes with a QWERTZ Keyboard..)
Thanks for your help
Mike
why not just show him how to flash a rom so he can do it himself. then you guys can be flashing buddies
Not a good Idea, he has not much knowledge of this...
Can you tell me where to get:
WWE Rom - or T-Mobile USA ROM
Internet Connection Setting for T-Mobile USA
Keyboard Fix
Thanks Mike
dude, you've been a member since april 2006, you should know by now how things work around here. the roms you can get from the wiki or searching or even everything below this post, internet settings by searching, as for the keyboard.......that might be special, but i think you can also search for that solution, and i think there might be something on that in the hermes wiki
I found the WWE Rom, the only thing I cant find so far is the T-Mobile USA .cab file.
Any chance of helping me find it?
Mike

there is no firmware update for T-mobile sda
this is the link to the one and only rom for our device
https://after-sales-service.t-mobile.de/eg_online/t-mobile/t-mobile_sw/sda_sw_112384.zip
you can update your phone with another rom like qtek or i-mate but have in mind that the extra hardware buttons(inbox and t-zones) and the right softkey customisation won't work.
it's better to watch the spv-developers forum for smartphone devices.
Hello, I have looked here for the official HTC TYTN II rom. I want the one that came with the device or the latest OFFICIAL rom (I don't think that the 6.1 verisions are official, but maybe I'm wrong). This link lists the official roms, but I am not sure which one is the original one??
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_ROMs
If I flash the Australia rom, will it work still here in the US? This looks like the latest official rom, but I really want the WWE version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=346267
Also, I have a TILT and I am going to HardSPL and SIM unlock, which one do I do first?? I had the 8525 and I remember doing the SIM/CID unlock first I think?
Do I need to use this SuperCID and Security unlock as well if all I want to do is flash new roms and SIM unlock??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361236
Oh, I almost forgot, why do some people post the .rar files and not the .exe, so much easier using .exe isn't it??
Thanks!!

The rom your phone came with if it is a tilt is one of the att ones on the site your first link leads to.
Hadspl and simunlock, don't matter which you do first just make sure you hardspl before trying to load a cooked rom from this site (and trust me it's worth going with a cooked rom over the att variants)
No supercid needed on the kaiser.
rar is much smaller then exe (rar is an archieve that has the files compressed)
Hello there! I just got off the phone with HTC tech support. They say they have no "official" release for WM6.1 and no date for a release either.
Also, they told me the newest "official" rom= 1.56.405.5
And radio= 1.27.12.11
Which is found here: http://rapidshare.com/files/5781641...dio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.rar.html
Anyone know how to get this in the .exe format?? I am a bit of a noob and I am used to using the .exe format to flash.
BTW manimore, I know what you are saying about the cooked roms, and I would definitely go with them over the AT&T crap; however, I like the look and reliability of the "official" HTC roms, like the one for the TYTN II.
Do we have any official HTC TYTN II roms besides the one above that the tech guys at HTC don't know about??
Thanks for the advice!
Manimore, I just reread your post. I was talking about official TYTN II roms, not anything for the Tilt.
What about this one?
1.83.631.4 (radio 1.27.15.32) Rogers Rom found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364789
Is this also a WWE official release for TYTN II?? What is Rogers??

Rogers is the only GSM carrier in Canada. However, they don't currently offer the TyTN II, last time I checked (I was at a dealer yesterday, and looked on the website as I composed this post), so I'm not sure what to make of this.
Rogers is a weird beast, in some areas they are far ahead of the competition; We have name display (like a landline, you'll see the name of the caller as well as the number, when available), unlimited incoming plans (like Europe, but without raping the person calling you), nation-wide 3G (major markets), but in other areas they are way behind the times (handset selection is pathetic at best, account termination penalties of up to $900, customer service reps are all over the map, from don't-speak-English to telepathic, etc)
Hi Gurus,
I bought a HTC touch SIM unlocked version from India. It was working fine with Vodafone India SIM. It had only Asian and Australian networks listed in the Network Wizard.
The ROM specifications are:
Model: ELF0100
Rom - 2.20.720.2B WWE
Rom Date - 10/02/07
Radio - 03.07.90
Protocol - 4.1.13.51
Ext Rom - 2.20.720.103
At present I'm in Netherlands. When I wanted to use a Lebera SIM, it started searching for Network and I got a notification saying " Network 20412 not found. Request your device provider for updates".
After searching for network multiple times, now it just says Invalid or No SIM. It is a new SIM and works fine with other phones.
I haven't tried anything funny coz I'm a newbie in this area.
Request all of you to help me so that I can get my phone working.
Regards,
Sam

install this cab and select nederland..
ayyu3m, I had the same problem as sam_delhi when I inserted a Vodafone-India sim in my phone. Even with the new cab you posted, there is still no choice for Vodafone-India.
Is there an even newer version of the cab with the very latest networks?

he aint looking for an unlocker dude...his sim is jus searching for an operator, which his network wizard doesnt have.
Hi Ayyu3m,
That didn't solve my problem. When I tried installing the cab, it installed successfully but gave a warning that this software is for a lower version of windows.
I checked the network wizard but it still had the old Asian and Australian networks.
Any other suggestions???
:s thats weird. so u didnt get netherlands then eh? gotta do a search
Nope I didnt get it...
its not spelled as netherland. its spelled as Nederland
but lebera is not available as an operator...only KPN, Orange, T-Mobile, Telfort and Vodafone
i have heard Vodafone had partnered with Lebara in the UK, which allows Lebera to use the Vodafone network...so try selecting Vodafone with Nederland from the cab i gave here
When I inserted my Vodafone-India SIM, I tried selecting 'Hutch' (as that is who Vodafone were before the re-branding), but still it wouldn't log onto the network.
Are we using some sort of Airtel specific ROM?
yeah, the time i bought ma elf from bangalore, it was Airtel sim locked. But now they are sellin it unlocked to all
Hi Ayyu3m,
Lebera here in Netherlands is using KPN's network. But even after installing the CAB I don't get Nederland listed in the Network Wizard. The CAB installed successfully but gave a warning that the CAB file is for a lower version of Windows than the current.
I've Windows 6.0.

thanks ayyu3m. but i thought the network wizard was only for configuring your gprs connection. isn't the phone supposed to pick up and register to a network automatically. do u need separate cabs for this?
nah bro. it does more than that also. it sets country and operator, so that our device can follow that network. and yep need cabs....but if its only newer...or havin more countries...which may include ours
I am having the same problem. My dad gave me an unlocked HTC touch GSM and it wont work in the US . I have tried both CIngular and T-mobile sim cards and it would give me the same error Network 30196 not found. Request your device provider for updates. This is really pissing off. I tried the new updates and speed connecting wizard too. Nothing seems to work.Need help here..
try to use TESS rom, link are found in my signature
I don't know will it solve the problem , but our network wizard is one of the latest found here
we have Netherlands KPN in the network wiz and USA - T mobile
Can someone link me to the latest proper T-mobile UK rom please? So I can restore it all back to stock.
I need to send phone in for repair, lost where I dumped my rom. I can only find on the wicki/on here links to NL T-Mobile roms.
T-Mobile site has nothing for the mdaIII (kaiser).
Much appreciated,
Greg.
Failing that - anyone got a T-Mobile UK rom they dumped from their own phone?
Greg.
Found this on Google. If it's what your after, can you let us know and someone (or you) will upload it and update the wiki.

What about http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1586817&postcount=2 (6th one down i think) taken from the FAQ, Wiki, Stickies & Tutorials thread? is that one not any good?
paradoox
Paradoox - it might be, thankyou. But it is listed as OS Only Big Storage - I presume this isn't how T-mobile shipped my Kaiser. The other one DaveShaw is listed as OS only so I presume it won't put my radio/splash back etc, like the one above.
Are either any use do you think if I want to put my Kaiser back exactly as it was out the box?
Greg.
hiya,
iv flashed the reconstructed rom iv refered to before, and it works fine, the original tmobile splash screen is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374190 (post 5). im supposing you know how to flash it
in regards to the original radio, i honestly cant remember what it was. check out the kaiser ultimate radio thread, if i find out, il let you know.
paradoox
p.s the rom is reconstructed but as far as im aware its exactly the same as a normal release rom, its just someone has taken the tmobile uk operating system end product from a kaiser and made it into a rom as it has not been officially released. it flashes in exactly the same way as you'd flash anything else.
i have sent mine back one with a duttys rom on it, the technical support are that stupid they probably dont even know that flashing software on the device is even possible
i would say as long as u have the tmobile splash rom on it and 6.0, they wont even know the difference

sorry from my bad english....

hello, i discopvered that I have a telus snap s510. And it have the sim unlcok:
Is tehre a mode for sim unlock? IOf not I will buy without problems a code on internet for unlock it.
2nd question:the hard spl must I use hard spl for s511?
3rd question: I'd like have italian rom, can i install the offiacil htc upgrade rom in italian?
Thank you very much
1. You have to buy the code to unlock it.
2. HardSPL is the same as for the Verizon Ozone (CEDA100)
3. I don't think there are any Cedar ROMs in Italian. You may be stuck with english.
Be advised that using Verizon ROMs will mess with the keyboard layout. Once I get some free time, I'll look into cooking a Telus 6.5 ROM (if they don't release one).
does the rom Run RUU_Captain_S_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.2_Radio_Signed_MAPL E_61.36t.25.29H_3.47.25.29_Ship.exe work on my telus htc snap?
Becaus eof this version tehre is also an italian version

I have a Telus S510 that I am now using on AT&T network. Is it ok to install the 3volution ROMS from this website...I assume they will change to the Ozone style keyboard, but will everything else be ok?

I had a 3Vo 6.5 rom installed. The keyboard did change to ozone layout (easy to fix through remapping), and I found the wifi to be kind of flaky compared to the stock telus rom.
