Please someone help...I've backed up my contacts using my windows 2003 second edition pocket pc in a STG file format...I lost my device and bought a new one with a windows mobile 6 edition..I used "mobile vault" to read the STG file , but I can't find the "Contacts" file database...could any one help please find my contacts & extract them from that STG file...Thanks for reading
possibe alternative solution
Activesync restore was telling me that the database files were in use. The running programs application in my 02 xda doesn't really show all running programs. I installed magic button and when the active sync tells restore tells me to check the running programs, I just ran magic button and killed everything except for activesync. Click on retry and the databases where restored successfully.
hey Does any one have any tools to unlock the Extended Rom for my Magician (O2 xda2 mini), i wanna install some cabs in there pls do help.
1.Download Resco Explorer or Total Commander (cos you will need either these 2 program to enable "Reveal all files"
2. To unhide the Extended ROM, after you reveal all files, go to your File Explorer (Start, Programs, File Explorer)
3. Using the File Explorer, go to Windows folder and find this file called LoadVDisk.exe and then just run the file
4. Next, using File Explorer again, and go to \My Device and you should see the Extended ROM folder
5. Click on the Extended ROM folder and find the necessary cab file and click on it..
6. soft reset
also the search function is also quite useful. try it once in a while...
hey thanks for the advice will check on it, thank you.
hey man it works so how do i place another program in ext rom and will it be installed everytime i hard reset, and yeah since its unlocked how do i lock it again. than for the help hoping for a reply soon.
u cant place any new programs in the ext ROM. that ROM is supposed to be inaccessible to u. ur ext ROM should be hidden after the soft reset. check it!
You may not be able to place anything in the ExtROM till you unlock it. You have only "unhide" the ROM by running that utility. Till you unlock it you can only read the contents not write into it....
so tell me how do i unlock the ext-Rom of a magician, has anyone got any idea, pls let me know if there are any possibilities, i want to unlock the ext. rom of my O2 xda2 mini, pls help.
There are more possibilities read its content, (unhiding it). One possibility to hard reset it (pressing the Power button while pushing RESET). This will erase every data+programs from the device.
When the 1st boot finishes the ExtROM cabs are beginning to install. You have to Soft Reset the device (pushing RESET) to interrupt it. No cabs will be installed and ExtROM will be readable.

There are no unlockers for Magician AFAIK. But now most of the people go for big storage hack with which you get 27MB of extra space for storage. Put ExtROM on the SD card. Lots of material avilable on this forum for doing so..
what is the advantage of having a big storage other than ext.Rom, if i need to can i reverse the process back to normal.
The term “Big Storage” in a nut shell is the process of modifying the built in ROM file of the Magician and deleting its “Extended ROM” contents which frees up approx 20Mb of space. This new space or “Storage” can be used to install 3rd party apps etc and won’t be deleted after a hard reset. The only way to restore the contents is by “Flashing” the ROM again with a new complete ROM File. - excerpt from ampda guide
so what is the latest rom with the big storage for a magician. i surely would love to make a switch over. thank you.
The latest and last ROM for the Magician is 1.13 with Radio 1.12. Actually you can convert any ROM to BS.
Help please folks
Whenever I need to format my micro SD card I use a program called Flash Format as it works when others don't from the ppc (I don't have a card reader)!
I know it's supposed to install into start/settings/system but I'm running 6.5 now and I can't find the damn thing to run it........!!! Tried the windows folder and program files etc etc etc - I just can't find it....
Here is the download link - anyone fancy telling me why I'm being thick....?

I'm having the same issue!

Hi,
Find in Windows folder file FLASH4MAT and execute it.
That's all. You can make an shortcut to a favorite folder.
I am trying to install rafdroid and the instructions say to " First of all modify the config.txt file in your build folder, with wince=1 or you will be stuck at bootscreen."
I really don't know how to modify it so could anybody help with this?? Maybe some steps on what to download & how to modify it would be helpful. Any help will be appreciated. Help ASAP if able. Thanks.
I've used rafdroid sd builds looong time ago... but i remember that if you use to start android from winmo you must create a text file (withe Notepad), write "wince=1" and save it in to the android folder in the sd-card otherwise it will work only with MAGLDR.
Hello!
I have a Navigation System (LG) running Windows CE in my car.
On this Navigation System I can run the TotalCommander to see the storage devices.
On one SD-Card there are some files I tried to replace but the copy process was interrupted.
After deleting all files from the SD-Card, there is still not the complete space free anymore.
I think that the interrupted parts are still taking place on the SD-Card and I can't get rid of them.
How can I completely remove all data (even if there is nothing shown anymore) from the SD-Card?
Is there any "Storage-Tool" available, which I can run as an executable file?
I can't install any CAB Files on this files. I just can start EXE Files through the TotalCommander.
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Hello @Gerti72
There is a program out there called Flash Format that works on WindowsCE 3.0 and Up. If you do a google search you should be able to find it and D/L it.
Hope this helps.

Hello orbitA13,
already found this Tool, but I'm unable to download an EXE File which I can directly start from my USB-Stick from TotalCommander.
I only be able to download a Tool to install it from my PC to a Windows CE Device (but I didn't have this option).
Any idea?

There is a Tool stgui.cpl available on this device (it seems to be part of Windows CE), which allows to check the status and to correct errors.

Excellent, Thank you for posting back your solution. So many say they found a way to do things but do not post about it. This should help others as well.
cheers...
