English T-Mobile MDA Compact ROM provided by Nowicom at last! - Wednesday 8 December
Nowicom have at last provided their customers with an English version of the MDA Compact / i-Mate Jam ROM for their customers to download and install. The procedure requires a blank SD card and an SD Card Reader, and a lot of downloading time! There are two files to download:
1 - The ROM itself (230MB). http://www.nowicom.com/dl/mda_compact_upd_en_1.zip
2 - The installation tools and guide (24Mb). http://www.nowicom.com/dl/mda_compact_upd_en_2.zip
The procedure involves copying the ROM onto your SD card using the ntrw tool and your card reader, inserting the card into your phone and flashing the phone. More information on the subject can be found in this thread, except it appears that you don't need to go through the process of using the hex editor if you use the Nowicom version of the ROM - it's a one-size fits all solution. Good luck! Please use the forum for any queries you have.

I get lots of "Page cannot be found". I'll try later...

I tried to restore my original T-Mobile ROM using my sd-card according to the manual in this thread. I used the ntrw tool (2.0) to write to my sd-card. This went fine, it wrote the nb1 file on the disk.
After that I hard-resetted my MDA Compact (Camera+Power+soft reset), but it didn't start downgrading my ROM. In fact, it didn't start anything!
It reaches the bootloader mode (dark screen with serial on it), but then it doesn't start anything from my sd-card.
I tried 3 different cards, but no result.
Anyone the same problem and/or know a solution?

T Mobile MDA Compact does not open, need HELP!!!
Hello everyone,
I'm new to this board and I read nearly all threads about MDA. I bought my T Mobile MDA Compact 2 weeks ago from Germany. Yesterday while I was trying to change its language to English its locked. I installed Windows 2003 SE then device restarted but not open anymore. Now I can not open it. When I try to open it on the top of the screen it writes "Seial" and at tthe bottom it writes "1.00 Version". What should I do? I need immediate assistant; can anybody help me to make my MDA Compact working again?
Thanks
AE

try a hard reset only.
Power + reset
no camera

New TMO Official ROM - (1.13)

Seems like T-Mobile have brought out their second maintanance release, supposedly including blackberry (jumps up and down, then realises blackberry is overhyped and overpriced).
Downloading it now from
http://t-mobile.iris-global.com/download_manager_mda_com.html
From the filename it appears the radio stack is still at 1.12, but I'll check once it's on.
Apologies if this is old news but I couldn't find any reference to it so far.

Technology hates me
Computer decided to reboot during ROM flash, feck knows why. Luckily it seems the TMO upgrade utility can restart its flashing procedure even though connection was lost.
Don't mind computer problems if they got some kind of sense to them, but randomly just restarting for the first time since I built it during the most ackward time just proves to me that computers are both evil and have a since of twisted irony.

Any improvement
Any improvement in this release?
I have been using the May update (BigStorage applied) since July fairly successfully.
I don't want to go through this if it's not worth it, so would appreciate advice from anyone who has applied it first.
Thanks

Well it's now got Blackberry support, whoopty f***in do. Also the radio version is still 1.12 so that has to be updated seperatly. In the 15min its been alive I havn't noticed any major changes but never really expected to.
Will post if I experience any problems or notice anything lifechangingly amazing about this new ROM. Would be nice if people using this ROM could do the same.
BTW anybody got a list of the ExtROM files and their comparitve uselessness? I went through the 1.12 ROM with a CAB manager but really can't be arsed this time round. Probably just install the whole lot through shear laziness. On second thoughts the BB client takes up 1.3Mb, so like f**k am i letting that onto my baby.

Hi Herman,
Why not go for BigStorage as you're not using the ext-rom. In the upgrade to radio 1.13 you can find how to do it from the shipped rom & on the ftp there's a bs 1.13 rom present, based on the Dutch TMO version so WWE, but use your own ext-rom files for specific UK settings.
Cheers, M

Cheers
Sorry, didn't really put it right. Already had the 1.13 radio downloaded and just installed it after, was no worries there. As for the BigStorage ROM, I've never particularly liked the idea, especially after reading problems people have had reverting back to the old storage configuration. I'm quite happy with my 512Mb SD card, wouldn't really use the extra space in storage anyway.
Cheers for your thoughts though mate
Ps had the new ROM up and running for few hours now, not noticed any glaring issues apart from that damn lack of BT serial ports issue but thats the radio not the OS ROM.

BigStorage
Finally gave in and overcame my fears. Applied the BigStorage hack to the latest TMO ROM as I read on here that it's reversible. Well seemed to have gone smoothly, although the increased hard reset time at the begining nearly made my heart stop.
If anyone wants I can upload the latest TMO official ship (1.13) with BigStorage hack, which doesn't need the SD card flashing method. Can do straight over USB.
Just post a msg if you want me to upload.

Hi parklife,
Still strugling to get it done? I gues herman3101 will upload a modified nk.nbf. Hope you succeed with it. At least I did with a patched nk.nbf. Can't upload myself for a few days as I'm not in the neighborhood of my PC. It's just me & my magician and I'm not complaining.
Cheers, M

Uploading now
Well I'm uploading the ROM up to the ftp now. I've included the updated nk.nbf as well as all the files needed to do a USB install. The files were small enough for me to think well why not. Once that's been uploaded I'll check the download section and find a link for you all.
Further to the guy who couldn't update his ROM, being kinda vague there buddy but I'll see what I can do. If you would be so kind as to follow these instructions pretty much to the letter then we should be OK:
- Hard Reset your MDA (press power button at same time as reset)
- After the selecting your time zone do a soft reset to avoid the customization process
- Plug your fresh MDA into your USB and wait for ActiveSync to bring up the connection wizard, select Guest partnership
- With your MDA still plugged in but in Guest mode just double click on the file you downloaded of T-Mobile and follow the onscreen instructions.
If you still have problems after following those steps then don't hesitate to reply but please be more specific so we don't have to guess what your issue is.
Will post a message when the BS ROM is up on the ftp
PS Well with the BigStorage ROM it obviously doesn't matter which ExtROM, but I would always go for the one from your provider so if you are with T-Mobile UK then go for their ExtROM because your guarenteed compatibility

Link to the ROM
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Magician/WWE_TMO_1.13 Official Release with BS.zip
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Magician/
The first is a direct link which probably won't wok because of the way I named the file and the second is a link to the folder which it is in.
I have to be honest I have no idea how to move this ROM into it's appropriate folder under Magician/BigStorage ROMs but o well. You'll find it where I've specified.
BTW the file attached is a list of my interpretations of what the 1.13 ExtROM files do. By no means conclusive or correct, its just what I've noticed them do during a stage by stage install and looking for clues inside the cabs.

herman3101,
Album & camera are bundled in the cab. That's the only flaw I noticed in your nice description.
Probably a moderator will move your file to the download section. Guess that's what happened to my BS rom as well. Thanks for uploading your files. It takes me ages to upload those files with my magician.
Good work & seems you're right on my track with decisions making for BS. Only I messed my first try completely and that's something I'm not wishing to anyone. Just waiting for the first hard-reset to finish is enough I think.
Regards, M

hey herman, thanks for the upload, i got it to work on my M500. But i would like to add something on the set up. You need to do some extra steps to avoid the the ID ERROR 120. Ok here ya go:
-Extract the rom
-edit the RUU.conf with notepad, add [CHECKCEID_TYPE]=1 on the top
-copy MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from ftp to the extract folder
-press power, camera and rest on your magician
-plug the magician to the USB
-AND execute the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
-follow instuction
I waited for 4 minutes till i got my welcome mode.
for more info go check on the ampda how to's pdf file
thanks for herman3101, oltp, and ampda, now i have the perfect rom that i will keep for some time.

Hey Parklife,
Glad you finally made it. Don't think the Dutch rom is any different from the UK rom, both are 1.13 WWE TMO. Except for the ext-rom ofcourse. Managed to get my time on 'h:mm am' too with the english (us) region.
Good thing is that everyone can choose of three methods, to get this BS rom, whichever way they're feeling most comfortable ith and that has been different before.
Cheers to all of you.

Cheers for complementing the post, didn't include it because my MDA is from TMO UK so I don't need to do that step.
PS I've been running the ROM for a little while now and it seems as stable as ever

hey, one more question for you guys...after i install the Camera_Wizard_Magician_T-Mobile_WWE_RC28_Customize.CAB, my magician clock changed into 24 hours clock format. I tried to change it into 12 hours format on regional setting - date like oltp said, but could not change it back to the 12 hours format...have you guys had the same problem? no biggies, i just not use to the format.

Parklife,
I noticed that the clock changes only after I alter the 'time style' on the time tab (sample changes immediately) go to another tab and then touch the clock on my programbar. Changing the region seems not necessary. Yesterday I fiddled a bit with the settings, now I used a more structural approach.
Cheers, M

Few question about upgrading W2K3 to W2K5

i've heard that WM2003 in himalaya gadget can be uprade to WM2005, it's very interesting and i going to try the uprade, but i have some question about the upgrade, my question is:
1. what's the risk during upgrading? could my device occuring some permanent error?
2. what's the consequence of this? will my device working slower? or working faster?
3. if i don't satisfy with the WM2005 can i downgrade back to the WM2003 OS?
please help me by answering my question

Response:
1. the device may fail, but you can restart the whole process entering the device in bootloader mode and upgrading (happen to me once)
2.Your device will work Faster but sometimes (at boot sequence) will be slower.
that's the price you have to pay. Other thing is there is no MMS in WM5 (dont work for me) and some camera issues, that can be fixed. But is more eye-candy than the WM2003 or 2003SE.
3. If you aint satisfied you can go back to 2003SE just putting the device in bootloader mode and then making the upgrade using a WM2003 ROM (the nbf file)
One thing: Tofclock and Buzz (thanks guys!) are working hard to bring us one stable, better and faster WM5 ROM, so be quiet and wait like me :wink:

Hi guys,
I ve also heard that after you upgrade to Wm 5.0 the phone vibratin wont work, is that true?
what else then?
:roll:
Thanks

Hi dickyw,
my vibration on my Himalaya works perfect...

Hi Guys,
Can anyone help another dumb newbie?
I upgraded my Himalaya to W2k5 OK from the O2 exe file, but I now want to downgrade to 2003 SE.
The folder I am trying to use to downgrade is WindowsMobile2003SE_XDA2_2.20.00CHS-translated.zip
Himaupgradeut.exe gives:- Error 120 Country ID error 1-1-8-n-1
HimaupgradeUt_noid.exe gives:- Error 103 ROM image file not found
XDA image tool gives me:-Unsupported file format error for NK.nbf
I have:-
Boot loader 1.06
CE image 1.72.00
Extended image 1.72.181
Radio image 1.17.00
Am I using the wrong tools, the wrong ROM or an incorrect procedure? I'm doing this for a friend so it's getting very embarassing. Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks, Mike

Another issue to aware of when upgrading to WM5 is that you need to also upgrade to Activesync 4.1 as 3.8 won't work any more. Given that AS can be very tempremental it may take some time to get the sync link back up and working to your satisfaction so if your data is cruitial to your work then backup, backup, backup and upgrade when you have a few days free to dedicate to ironing out any wrinkles.
Then also xbackup doesn't work in WM5 so you are left with options like buying the latest Sprint backup soiftware (now WM5 compatible) or relying upon your PC Outlook to be your "backup data" (NB I use the Outlook free "backup" util to back up my pst files on exiting Outlook as double insurance).
Regards - Mallow1
PS I upgraded and v glad I did. Had a few AS issues but eventuall got there (took a lot of reading of forums and As battles, but worth it in the end)

cnimike,
One assumes that you have unzipped the zip file first before trying to reflash? If not try that (say use winzip). Also try reading the wiki as a guide to what to do (seee link attop left of page).
You are also best o use the HimaupgradeUt_noid.exe as at least it avoids the first error (esle you'll have to edit the flash files first and recompile them which is straight forward but if you are a noobie it's a step that can be avoided by using the "...noid.exe") and if you haven't unzipped the said file doing that may well sort out your second error.
Get back to me if you need more help.
Regards - Mallow1

I would suggest getting a hold of Sin's merged version (details in signature) or XDA2JoJo's version. Simply flash the ROM and you are there. Elsewhere, SIN has set out the steps in the most detailed fashion you are going to see outside a software manufacturer's manual. :wink:

HTC Kaiser SSPL v1 (or flashing any rom 4 free)

* THIS WILL WORK ON KAISER ONLY - FOR GENERIC METHOD SEE JumpSPL *

--------------------
UPDATE: Found a problem on SSPL where it will hang when flashing a full ROM with a new RUU due to the NBH buffer being smaller in SPL-0.92, I removed the link and will update Kaiser SSPL version when I have some free time. At the moment, please use Kaiser Hard-SPL, this is safe
For those of you had the phone stuck in bootloader mode after flash with SSPL stopping at 16%, follow these instructions to unbrick your phone:
1. Download mtty.exe
2. Disable activesync (connection settings -> uncheck "allow usb connections")
3. Connect your Kaiser to PC using USB cable.
4. Open mtty, select USB port and click OK.
5. Hit ENTER twice, you should see the "Cmd>" prompt.
6. Type the command "boot", you should see something like this:

Cmd> [B]boot[/B]

No card inserted
OSSIReadBack ++
Read SI data from flash success
tail signature match
Checksum match
UserStorageSIPreload ++
After that device should boot WM6 again, you can now re-enable USB connections in activesync and flash HardSPL

[solved] Palm 750 wm6 speedup options

Hi all, im new here in terms of posting but have been reading for a while now.
I have a Plam Treo 750 vodafone which is unlocked. I installed vodafone wm6 update on it a month ago... but since then i've stopped using the phone due to this:
I'm used to fast systems such as my linux desktop and i was really frustrated how the wm6 interface is slow. Even with few progs installed the phone gets very sluggish and hanging up calls even takes time.
Now here's my question:
Is there any way to speedup WM6 ? or install a custom WM6 that is faster ?
I tried Rest of the World wm6 ROM but it wouldn't install on my phone when i opened the installer it would say not compatible.
Would this speedup my phone ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345748
What should i do... i really love the phone and its features... but i just want wm6 to run faster so that the phone is usable.
thanks

Got it right mate! Nice research!

can anyone please help me install "WM6 AKU0.7.0 WWE Cooked ROM Lite"...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345748
I've never done something like this before and have no idea how to begin.. I can't find any guides only random text throughout the posts so i don't know what applies to me and what doesn't. I'm really worried about damaging my phone by doing something stupid.
My Phone:
750v from vodafone UK with vodafone wm6... but it was unlocked by previous owner... since i can use it on other phone providers in other countries. I have usb cable and 1Gig microSD.
The installation notes of the rom say i need to install Hard-SPL then flash radio then flash OS. Now for Hard-SPL do i need to install it if my phone is unlocked because i read some confusing posts there... then what is a radio flash do i need to do that ? how does it affect radio...
then after that i need KaiserCustomRUU.exe to flash the rom... i only found a post about CustomRUU with "RUUWrapper.zip" is that the same thing... sorry but i'm really confused and need someone to guide me through the process for my first time if possible.

You are ready to go. Download the ROM from Chaimd on the 750 Upgrading thread, rename it to CHEEIMG.nbh (the ROM file name the 750 expects to see) and copy it to the root of your miniSD card.
Insert the miniSD card, hold down the bottom right button on the side while you do a reset and the bootloader will start. And away you go.
Make sure you backup (backup program is best) all your data - it starts you out with fresh device and default settings. ROM works perfectly - fast and lots of extra storage.

You are ready to go. Download the ROM from Chaimd on the 750 Upgrading thread, rename it to CHEEIMG.nbh (the ROM file name the 750 expects to see) and copy it to the root of your miniSD card.
Insert the miniSD card, hold down the bottom right button on the side while you do a reset and the bootloader will start. And away you go.

Thanks txzman for the info. But just to be sure i understand... you're saying i don't need to install Hard-SPL from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334100&page=1
Nor do i need to flash the radio ?

UPDATE:
ok i didn't install Hard-SPL or flash the radio.
I tried to install the rom straight away... i put the ROM on my memory card root and renamed it, then did the reset with sidebutton...and i got to the wierd colors screen and nothing happenes after that.
It says on the screen:
Palm Tr
IPL-0.20
Palm Tr
SPL-0.24.0000
In the end nothing happens... this method doesnt work. i tried using KaiserRUU.exe update method but also that doesn't work it gives me and "Error [260]: Connection" even though activesync is connected... please tell me what i can do to install this rom.

i posted the question in the thread for the cooked rom. i guess this is not the right place to ask thus no one is replying.

sd needs to be formatted fat32 - re-format card to fat32, re-copy cheeimg and try again. Google or search here for the available formatting apps.

INSTALL HARD-SPL FIRST....
i can't stress this enough...

If your Palm Treo is unlocked, you still need to install Hard SPL but just run step 1 and ignore step 2 & 3. This will allow you to flash your Treo with ROM's other than your provider as well as modified/cooked ROM's like the one made by Chaimd.
