Can'tinstall ROM on my Jam....

Hi all!
I've an Italian version on i-mate Jam and I'd like to install the last English version of the ROM.
I'm trying with the wwe (worldwide English) ROM but seems to doesn't work with my device...
S.O.S!!! Smile

Hello
There are numerous posts on this problem.
Quick extract on the matter from JoelWu as you may get Error 150 Codes
1. Right click on the downloaded Rom EXE-file and extract to a named folder (using Winzip or something similiar)
2. You should end up with about 6 - 8 individual files; ms.nb1, radio.nb1, nk.nb1 ruu.conf, ruu.dll, enterbl, getdevicedata and maupgradeut, the maupgradeut is the file that runs the upgrade
3. Download the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
4. Once you have this file you will need to add this to the folder created above as this is the file needed to initiate the upgrade.
5. In ActiveSync, go to option -> Schedule, Set it to Manual, this is to make the PPC USB connection to ActiveSync active but don't do any Sync with your PC and PPC during the upgrade process.
6. Connect the phone to the USB, manually sync once. From now onwards, the step is the same.
-----
7. Now run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
8. The upgrade Wizard will start, go through a few checks then eventually come up with the country Id error.
9. Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe file again and this time it should allow you to run the Wizard.
10. The process should then go through 3 stages which should last about 10 - 15 minutes.
11. When finished you should get the upgrade successful notification and a prompt to reset the device
12. In ActiveSync, click on file and connection settings and tick the USB connection.

Many thanks!
I'll try it asap!
Last questions:
if I install the WWE ROM as you told me... the next ROM upgrade it will be possible by the normal exe way or all the WWE ROM need that workaround?
If I install the WWE ROM using the way you told me... Can I came back to install the Italian version of the ROM? Using the normal way (.exe) or... ?

I dont no.. im trying 2 update my Magician for the second time i will post my result first i try with official .exe. if it dont works i use the cracked...

Nope still Country ID error

Thanks!
IT WORKS!!!! :wink:
well... now I've got English ROM on my jam but 2 problems:
- On my old Italian ROM there was an antivirus application installed as default. On English ROM there isn't!!! :-(
Any suggestion to download the antivirus? Is it necessary in your opinion?
- Now, when I'm typing with the std keyboard the Jam suggest me the English words... (obviusly!)
Can I configure the Jam to sugget me the Italian words or the WWE have only English vocabolary inside?
- Wat's the differences fro WWE ROM and US ROM or UK ROM? I'm Italian... waht's the best English ROM for me?

WWE is fine for you. The US and UK roms only have settings for that countries' phone providers in the Extended Rom. Since you're not in either of those countries you can just stick with WWE.

hi all, pls help me

I just got an I-mate JAM with following info:
ROM version: 1010.00 WWE

Protocol: 1337.43
ExtROM ver: 1.12.550 WWE
RAM: 64MB

which ROM that i should use now?
and can I do it without USB cable? (copy ROM to MMC and install)
I'm living in Vietnam and use English

Welcome to XDA-developers!
Your ROM version is fine, however you may wish to upgrade to the latest 1.13 ROM + 1.13 Radio + BigStorage (by the way, BigStorage is just a way in which you can extend your measly 7MB of Storage to 27MB). However you will need a USB cable for the above method: I highly recommend to invest in one anyway, as you will find installing many programs onto your JAM difficult without one.
I think it is possible to upgrade with just a SD/MMC card and a SD/MMC reader for your computer, however it is considerably more complicated and you will not be able to back up your existing ROM, as you will need your computer to command your JAM during the backup process. You will probably need to merge two upgrading methods in order to get a USB cable-free process, something that no one else has done. Sorry I don't quite have the time for that yet, but maybe someone else can come to your aid!
Is there a technical reason you can't use a USB cable by the way?
EDIT: I forgot this: the reason why you cannot upgrade by just dumping a ROM onto the SD card and letting the JAM upgrade from that is that the ROM must be modified with some special, device unique data from your JAM first before your JAM will accept it. The normal ROM upgrade programs do this via USB by retrieving the device data from your JAM and then applying it to the ROM they are about to send to it. While there is a way to manually get this required data, that too requires a USB cable (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=231410).

Please avoid cross-posting, especially since this is the wrong forum. I can't help you anyway - different models of PDA can have very different ways of doing things.

Same for me, HTC Magic but on Vista... doesn't work

downloading... hope my malaysian magic can b updated...

The ROM is understandably pretty much identical to the Taiwanese, except for the obvious changes (and some not so obvious, like some apps and widgets missing - Plurk or Stocks, for example).
Oh, and it also of course contains the same perfected SPL, so...think about it before updating.

Can I use this rom on Polish HTC Magic, will i still have polish language in my android?

Problems flashing cooked WM6 ROM

Hi all,
I am following the steps described in the forum.
I have unlock the universal and follow all the steps (i think so)
In my Universal appears the bootleader with the USB when the USB is connected and serial when not. In the PC i have unchecked the usb connection in the ActiveSync etc... But when i run in the PC the "ROMUpgradeUt" program provided with the cooked ROM package it seems that is not communicating properly with the Universal. First of all when it appers the screen that informs you about the current version of the pda and the upgrade to perform, both fields are empty, Then i click in "next" button and after a while (that informs you that the process could take 20 minutes) it appears some error regarding to the connection (i guess)...
More info: No USB HUB but Windows Xp running on wmware, but the Active Sync works perfectly on vmware.
Please could you help me ?
Thanks!

Er.....
I would first update your bootloader to: 2.01
Then i would check if your uni if connecting to the VMware copy of XP,
another opition you could do if partion your hard-drive nad load XP on to it...

OK Thanks!
But i don't find the bootloader version that you point... i have downloaded the one i have from the main thread of ROM Upgrade... could someone put the link?
thanks

Hi again,
My bootloader version is 1.0 so it is a G3, anyway, Can i update it to WM6 or not ?
Thanks in advance

you should bew able to,
Arr yes, hgave u SPLed ur uni?
i updated my bootloader about last year you my best optinion is to pm Orb3000 and ask for his help

Hi!
Thanks a lot for your comments. Problem solved... i didn't reboot winxp after ActiveSynd installation.... (it seems that was the problem). Right now all is perfect!
Cheers

[Q] windows mobile

hey,
well obviously I'm a newbie here and i needed to know if anyone can help me find a download link for windows mobile?it crashed on my Siemens pocketloox and i lost my cd so i've been looking everywhere for a downloadable version but i can't find one.
thanks in advance.

Dude a pda is not like a pc where you can freely install any OS you wish... The official Windows Mobile versions must be provided by your manufacturer (there isn't a Universal version per say... if you try to flash the version of another device you'll kill your phone). You may try to check Fujitsu-Siemens homepage for an official ROM update or contact them if needed
Over the net you may find ROMs for pda but bare in mind these are device specific and your device usually needs to be hacked in order to install unofficial versions (your device seems to be quite old... I don't believe you'll find any rom here since xda is almost HTC land).
Also what do you mean by crashed? Did you brick it (OS won't start... all you get is a black screen)? Have you tried removing/reinserting the battery and restarting?

the start menu suddenly has no icons,and neither the camera shortcut button nor the notes one are working.basically,it just opens and almost everything is disabled.

The easy solution is...
Just hardreset the device (seach here) and it will reset your device to factory defaults (it's like a format+reinstall)... Problem solved.
Just make sure you backup your data (photos, contacts, messages...) before because everything will be erased

thanks a lot man it worked.
