Brand spanking new UK T-Mobile MDA compact Rom 1.12.00 WWE !

Uploaded. brand spanking new T-Mobile UK MDA compact ROM
(Now in the magician uploads sectiom)
R 1.12.00
G 1337.42
D 1.12_WWE
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Magician/
Full rom extracted using romupdate to 256mb SD card and extracted from the card using ntrw.exe. MDA was brand new unused and this rom has not been modified in any way.

Anyone tried this ROM? T-Mobile have had the most stable ROMS in the past ...

Maybe you misunderstood, this ROM was extracted from a brand new MDA compact that I took delivery of on Friday. It is not a modified ROM or a Qtek, its a genuine T-Mobile ROM on an MDA compact part no 99HAK026-00.
I extracted it wth romupdate.exe, copied from my sd card (256MB) using ntrw.exe and ftp straight up.

downloaded half of it last night but can't seem to download the rest today - please share again

Hi
So many people downloaded it that it blew my download bandwidth limit with my hosting company. I'll copy it to the ftp.xda-developers.com site, probably best place for it anyway.

Where abouts on the ftp site have you put it, and whats it called?
Thanks

Uploading it now to the uploads section, should be there in a few minutes

i cant find it too.
Cant wait to get it though!

Don't suppose T-mobile have applied the BigStorage hack by any chance??!!
Joking aside- thanks for taking the time to upload it Bobster.

thanks for sharing this.
At least someone has been good enough to since its quite clear T-mobile have no intentions of providing any updates to current users.

Few minutes is a good joke.... ;-) 256 MB are quite a much off stuff....
An other question is, why uploading twice? One time in the Upload folder and one time in the upload/Magician folder....
I'm going to split the file in the right size and will move it then in the Magician folder.....
Regards
Stefan

sorry for being a complete noob, but how do i install this .nb1? Last time i flashed my firmware it was a windows exe that installed it all for me.

The nb1 file is a ROM dump, which in this case you would have to follow the procedure as shown in one of stickies 'How to upgrade your rom to latest one' (or whatever it's called).

Cant seem to find the uploaded new T-Mobile MDA Compact rom?
Is it uploaded??

This link doesn't work for me... Any ideas why?

Some users experience problems using FTP via Internet Explorer. Try using a FTP client software- FTP Surfer is a free one- can't remember the exact link- try a search in Google.
Any other FTP client should also be fine.
Also make sure you are using the correct login details (change them from file menu in Internet Explorer>
user name: xda
password: xda

!!! NEWS !!!
It has finally been uploaded and is in the Magician section of the uploads folder on the ftp site
at
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Magician/
I just re-loaded it on an oder MDA compact and it works fine , i find it always works if
1) Make a copy of your existing ROM on the sda crd using romupdate.exe as this seems to format your SD card correctly.
2) Copy your existing rom from the sd card using ntrw.exe BUT DO NOT FORMAT OR ERASE YOUR SD IN ANY WAY
3) Copy the new ROM onto your SD using ntrw.exe
4) Insert the SD card and boot to bootloader, about 8 seconds later it will promt you to flash
It is not a bigstorage rom , its a normal T-Mobile with extended ROM and seems to have the improved bluetooth and a two device comparison (old and new together) shows faster navigation around menus.
Good luck downloaing,

I didnt upload twice, my ftp client stalled (well at least I thought it had)

Need to get back to WWE!

I made quite the mistake yesterday. I have an MDA compact that came from T-Mobile Germany and originally had german as the default language. It was easy to change to english by going to regional settings & selecting english.
So I didn't think twice about using a German T-Mobile ROM upgrade - and now I'm stuck with GERMAN!!! Regional settings doesn't change the language any more! what the heck?
Sooooo, I need a WWE .exe ROM that will load - I tried a UK WWE and I was told by the installer that I had the wrong language and install could not continue. Is there a way to go back to WWE? I don't care at this point what version.....
Also, I have downloaded from the FTP server other ROM versions but they are all .nb1 files and, despite my best efforts, I can't understand the proper way to install these. I've looked thru lots of posts and found one set of instructions but they were very hard to understand. HELP!!

funkynugget,
I have been in your shoes, in the exact situation as a matter of fact. I am very familiar with PPC but had never flashed anything in my life( well there was this one time a few years back but uuhhhh.. thats for another story) Anyways just down load the preferred WWE, I am using the latest Jam rom which works great with my German Tmobile. You will also need to download the MaUpgradeUt.exe file as well. Do a google search to find that one by just typing in MaUpgradeUt.exe Now unzip or unrar (whatever) the rom that you choose to use so it breaks down the files seperately. In it you will see the MaUpgradeUt.exe file. Remove that one a replace it with the newly downloaded one. Click on the and enjoy. You may come up with langauge or country error. dont worry if that happens just restart, it will work the second time.
Todd

thank you sooo much for the advice. i will for sure give it a try. i've downloaded another version of the ROM from orange and i'll probably end up just using that BUT i would prefer to use the i-mate ROM, from what i hear it fixes all kinds of little bugs. only problem is it isn't available on the FTP server and i have no other access. do you have it? can you post it to the FTP server here on xda?
once again, thanks for the help!

i've done some research to find a downloadable 'maUpgradeUt.exe' file and i'm starting to wonder if it matters where i get it & what type. you suggest downloading one to replace the one that comes with the WWE ROM but how do i know i found the correct 'maUpdateUt.exe' language/file?

funkynugget,
I tried but it said I do not have permission to upload file. Do you have an FTP I could upload to, it would be my pleasure as I also have received help from this site and would be lost without it.
Todd

'maUpgradeUt.exe'
funkynugget,
I am trying to attach the 'maUpgradeUt.exe' file, Im not sure it will work and I hope its OK to do this, we will see.

Now unzip or unrar (whatever) the rom that you choose to use so it breaks down the files seperately. In it you will see the MaUpgradeUt.exe file. Remove that one a replace it with the newly downloaded one. Click on the and enjoy.....
todd (or anyone else who can help!) when i unzip the files they either come out as an .exe or an nb1 file, not a series of files. how do i get the files separated? and when you say 'click on the and enjoy' click on what?

[Kaiser] software DUMP automatic ROM

Here's a little program that I have developed on the basis of "itsutilsbin-20070705."
this software can extract the ROM 4 file. RAW without the worry of addressing.
Dump-Rom
the archive and extract a root c: /
then run the Setup.exe
the executable is located in "program files / dump-rom /"
and files. raw find this in "c: / dump-rom /"
for all question I remain at your disposal
@ +

Downloading now and will report in a few minutes
Edit: Just tried it and it's not in English so i can't use it. Great job though.

Works fine for me. What troubles are you having with it?

I click on it and then it brings up the normal page but when I click download, the page errors out.....I tried another rapidshare link to see if it's on my end but it was fine....weird.....
LOL....working now.....damn crapshare...

as you test the software?

I tried.
It is in some local language (I know, its French, I'm just kiddin) which I don't speak.
It probably said it couldn't find .RAW files and it terminated itself after I run it, but there was no prior option to ask me for their location or to navigate to them, so I don't exactly know what happened. (edit; yes, I have put .raw in c:\dump-rom first as you instructed in 1st post).
I hope it didn't require any external connection (for whatever reason) because that I never grant to any tested software (anyways the machine I tried it on wasn't even connected to any network).
That's my whole experience with it, sorry I can't tell you more.
If you are the person who wrote it /developer, please please! take my advice:
Make it even in a broken english rather than any best parfait francaise.
Most of us understand simple stuff like Mo=MB, demarrer=reboot etc, but there were quite few screens during installation I had no idea what they said (I hope I didn't agree to give you all my income for the next 50 years just by clicking on "install" button )

I understand and I am currently péparer a small tutorial and a software version more enjoyable to use ...
thank you

Big problem after ROM update! Can't delete systen files anymore! Please help!

I flashed my HD2 to the newest official ROM and i discovered that it's not possible to rename and/or delete system files like manila files anymore!
Why is this??
With my old ROM i could rename manila files to *.bak and then delete them using Total commander but with the new ROM this isn't possible! I'm really desperate, I don't know what to do!
Could it be that HTC made the new firmware more secure?
Any solutions???

I found out that I can't copy my welcomehead to the windows folder anymore...it just wouldn't let me...
there has to be a registry entry somewhere, just can't find it at the moment.

I dont have the phone yet or WM6.5 so I cant comment too much but you could try reflashing the rom and see how that affects things. Did you flash the rom using a gold card or just update an official rom?

Hi may i ask where you got this official rom update from? as i have not been able to find it on any htc website

sorry for the noobness, but what does a goldcard do???? I have an image which was e-mailed to me after i placed my CID on a thread here. How do i go about using it. Is there anything on the web i can read up regarding this?
Sorry for hijacking your thread dude! Do what this guy says, try to re-flash your Rom and see if that helps.

Rename your new welcomehead from welcomehead.192 to welcomehead.193 and copy it into the windows folder. Then use the Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3 (it needs MS Framework 3.5 to be installed to work) and go to Splash Screen. There you have to click the first green entry and change the path from windows/welcomehead.192.png to windows/welcomehead.193.png. Then Softreset. Now you have a new welcomehead, even with new ROM. Have fun!

Make it the way i told you, you don't have to change something in the windows folder to have a new startup screen.

^I did it and it worked great. thanks
But there are some other issues...for example if you want to enable navi panel or hidden games you need to copy some files into the start menu folder but that is not possible because the ROM won't let you.
any solution for the others?

You're actually wrong. That's a common misunderstanding. You can flash an update with lower spl, but not with lower mainver, as here.

I think its bbs.3gin.net from memory..

If anyone has managed to download it, could you please host it somewhere else? ....or PM me and I will give you a login for my FTP to upload it.
The FTP above is either getting hammered, or is just damn slow.

@bcmobile
Try to log in via ftp://ftp.3gin.net and then move to the directory. Worked for me but dl speed is quite slow (12 kb)...
Btw. there is also RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4?​.00.11_release_121865.rar on this ftp.

Thanks mate. Downloading now. I was getting <1k/sec last night but it's going through at 40K/sec now.
Thanks anyway.

I've extracted it too now. If anyone has a mirror i can upload it to, i'd do it gladly
Edit: Extracted rom.zip, and it has files with a modify-date of 11-2-2010..not interesting!

thats the modified state by htc not by 3gin ..

I also downloaded, extract the .exe without error. However the .exe inside was corrupted!
So how about your .exe? Normal and can be extracted to boot.img?
TKS!
Amend : in XP, it cannot be run, but run in Win7?

extracted
I have the rom.zip file from this installer.
Can take out boot.img
i dont know how to extract boot.img though

I already tried to flash the boot.img using fastboot USB and fastboot via SDCard. Fastboot USB said the signature check failed. SDCard method (after renaming it to whatever name it looks for) also failed
Happy to try something else if anyone has any suggestions.
Also - the Android Kitchen tools said that the rom was rooted. Anyone know how reliable that info is?
