I have updated to 1.13 Big Storage, and now im missing a few tiny but helpful things.
before my jump to 1.13 i noticed my GPRS icon had a 'disconnect' button, now on 1.13BS it doesnt, so i find it hard to disconnect my GPRS connection, i dont like having it on all the time, only as and when.
Have i not installed something from the extended rom to fix this?
Also, how can i change the MMS/SMS/Email and Ringtones. I want to use mp3 tones for all, on the SPV C500 it was a reg hack that fixed this, is this the same?
Ive got a wav file as my ring tone at the minute, but its mahoosive!
Is there a loudspeak option on the phone? and is there a way to add voice dialing/typing?
Hi vini,
You're now experiencing plain WM2003 :-(
So go for the reg.hack for mp3 ringtone selection or put them manually in the rings folder.
GPRS disconnect is the same or you get the cab from the ori. ext-rom to get the disconnect button in the bubble or you use spb pocket tips&trucs to add it or push the red disconnect button for a few seconds.
So everything you mentioned isn't plain WM2003, but very handy indeed. Which means the providers are sometimes useful.
Cheers, M
red disconnect button? i dont get that
another bug/problem ive found, is im only getting 70 characters on Certain sms messages, i think. when i Reply this happens.
The red button to disconnect a phone call.
Seems like you are using unicode in your sms replies these double byte characters are using your precious sms space. You can turn them off, but don't rember how. It has been discussed many times before, so a search on unicode should help you.
Cheers, M
How to???
Hey ppl,
I downloaded the zip file from ftp site\magician\big storage ROMS\WWE 1.13.zip
Extracted it and found bs113.nbf file.. now how do i use it to upgrade my Poket PC? Ive gt no much knowledge in this bigstorage thngy and so can u help me.. Tanx a lottt in advance...
hey Carty, there is a tutorial which explains all (ive attached it)
that is all i followed and this thread.
ive worked out that my SMS allowance (usually 160 chars) is cut to 70 if i use a ' or any form of strange punctuation.
i was writing 'whats the weather like' and it automatically changed it to 'what's the weather like' i noticed id been cut to 70 chars, but deleted the
' in "what's" and i got my 160 char limit back, freaky! but how can we fix it? or is it just me?
BS without MMC reader!
hey vini,

Now to mine, i read ampda' ting and found tat i need an mmc reader.. bt i don have it and heard somewer someone who told tat u cld do it wit usb itself if u already have a patched file... can yu help me pls...
For an update to rom 1.13BS go to the thread about upgrading to 1.13 and radio 1.13 in the magician upgrading etc. section. Find the post from hlt. He wrote a complete how to & posted the tools. A few posts later I added some minor comments on the how to. You will patch a shipped rom & upgrade via usb. No need for SD- or MMC-readers.
Regards, M
H oltp,
I chkd yr posted reply and uve mentioned abt getdevicedata.exe to b copied to device... wer frm i get tat application (getdevicedata.exe)?
and how to decode tat nk.nbf file?? help me pls.. as i sed, im new!
Dear Carty,
Hlt posted the tool nbfdec in that thread, hexedit can be found on the ftp xda:[email protected] in one of the magician sub-directory. The getdevicedata file is part of the shipped rom which you can download from the ftp at the magician\shipped roms subdir.
Does this help you?
Regards, M

What about skipping it & using the maupgradeut_noid? My guess is that that stepnis meant to avoid the country id error. So is maupgradeut_noid. So download it fRom the ftp, put it in your dir. with the other extracted files from the shipped rom, execute it twice & you must be there.
Regards, M
FIne,
ive got
1.enterbl.exe
2.getdevicedata.exe
3.Rom upgradeUT.exe
4.ms_.nbf
5.nk.nbf
6.radio_.nbf
7.ruu.conf
8.ruu.dll
9.UI.dll
from the original shipped T-mobile' ROM
Got MaUpgrade.exe from ftp
got bs113.nb1 from big storage folder under ftp...
i have 'em all in one folder... i also added a line 'checkid type..' in ruu.conf to avoid country id error.. so now i directly run MaUpgrade file in bootloader mode or to delete any file from above.. i mean, the Bigstorage unpatched file from shipped ROM.. which file is it? and do i have to decode or do somethin to tat bs113.nb1 file? cz the original rom had files in nbf format..
Oltp, tanx for yr reply and help me wit tis nw.. im annoying you too much i gezz
Hold on, slow down a bit for this old man.
You're mixing things up. The bs113.nb1 is a complete romimage & cannot be used in a shipped rom upgrade.
To use that file you need a different procedure:
- dump your current rom on a sd-card
- get it on your pc
- copy the first 416 bytes from your dump into (overwrite) the bs113.nb1
- write the modified bs113.nb1 on your sd-card
- put in your magician
- press power
- wait till it finishes
- reset
- done
For the shipped rom you need to
- decode the nk.nbf to nb1 format with nbfdec
- open nk.nb1 in hexeditor
- search twice for the mentioned bit pattern & replace it with the usual BS pattern
- encode the modified nk.nb1 to nk.nbf again
- connect your magician with usb to pc (no need for bootloader mode)
- run maupgradeut_noid (this will check your device & puts it into bootloader with the enterbl file)
- follow instructions on pc screen
- keep an eye on your very dark magician screen
- wait till it finishes
- reset
- done
Cheers, M
Man i made it!!
Finally i made it.. All my thanx to whoever helped me..specially to oltp.. Im sorry oltp if ive annoyed u but i ws confused & im new too.. anyway, wot i did ws, patched the BS ting in the shipped ROM' nk.nbf file after decoding it.. I don understand 1 ting.. this is the easiest method of all BIgStorage' methods.. it doesnt require a mmc reader too.. Then y dn they jus place the patched nbf file in the original shipped rom and place it in BigStorage folder.. Cz every BS folder in ftp i see, there are some oter files wich i won understand.. Anyway tanx to oltp for helping me wit his replies sooon.. Finally I got BiggggG STorage
I belief herman3101 uploaded a modified nk.nbf, don't know the exact location. I just uploaded my rom to help someone here at the forum.
So everybody can choose his/her favorite method.
& I just like to patch myself, if something goes wrong I know who to blame.
Have fun with your new rom.
Cheers, M

Go to Start -> Settings -> System -> Remove Programs
It will display a list of all the programs installed in your Magician.
Select the one you want to uninstall and Press *UNINSTALL*
Thats too simple I guess!!

If you have done the BigStorage Hack and "installed" the application later on, it should be there in the Remove Programs list because the BigStorage hack simply nullifies the concept of ExtRom. If you can't find the program, you can tell me which one is it, and I will try to figure it out.
( Camera_Wizard_Magician_T-Mobile_WWE_RC28_Customize.Cab ) this is the one which i wish to remove.... and maybe u can tel me which cab is for changing themes too?

Themes come from .tsk files rather than .cab files. And about Camera Wizard.cab, it actually changes some registry values. Nothing else. Its not an application installer.
