Hi,
Well, we have used the pmemdum tool to make a backup of imate jam rom (pmemdump 80000000 4000000 rom.raw). So the next step is "how can we use this file to flash this rom on our mda". Any idea ?
Thanks
I already did that with an imate JAM and my MDA compact you just have to overwrite the header of the imate ROM with the ORIGINAL header of your MDA Compact then use ntrw to transfer it to an SD card and get your Compact into bootloader modes with the SD inserted wait for a few seconds and it will tell you to press the power butoon to flash! :wink:
Mine worked fine! The problem is How can we copy the Radio ROM and flash that too since it seems to be a newer version?
no katsj, files are totaly diferents. there is no header, there is no more than the os (ms+extended). I tried to add my german header before without success...
No effect! When I open that files I see the rest of Jam header, so I copy my Ger header from 416b even from 485b. Nothing! And the other interesting thing in original T-mobile ROM MS starts from line 0000001190 but in that jam ROMs it starts from 0000001000 line, 190 is missing, but when I try to add missing header noting change. If any of you guys would be so kind to post normal (as it is no changes) Jam ROM made with mtty n2b tool and zipped till 20mb I would very appreciated!
OK, so now i know how use it :
Make a backup of your rom using the classic process (bootloader, mmtty and d2s but enter "d2s 80000000 4000000".
Download the backup using ntrw
Open your backup with HHD Hex editor
OPen the imate rom
Select all the imate rom (CTR+ALT+END) and edit>Copy
Close the imate rom
Go to the offset 19c on your backup
Edit>Paste
Save your backup
Transfert the backup to your SD
And now the classic process : bootloader with the SD card, power to start the falsh
You will have the classic checksum erro but it works.
That file was not uploaded by me! I didn't manage to upload my file that includes the header! But you solved the problem!
What we have to find out now it HOW TO DUMP THE RADIO ROM. iMate JAM has a newer version of both the radio ROM which is R 1.01.00 and not R 1.00.10 and also the second part of the ROM on imate is G 1337.38 and not G 1337.36 as on our MDA Compact. Any ideas how can I dump those two parts of the iMate ROM so we can fully upgrade our MDA Compact?????
Please be fast as long as I still have the iMate JAM on my hands!
Did everything as it was written here! It started to download checksum was error, but after hard reset nothing happened. Compact was dead, totally dead, black screen nothing! Thank God the boot loader was working, so I restored original ROM. Any ideas why it happened? :evil:
Ok! Jam ROM is working, but I see no dramatic changes from T-mobile. More of that, customization failed because it tried to load some Arabic settings. Was it worth it? May be somebody would post original Jam ROM from England?
Nick-II..
What did you to to get it working the second time ? I had the same "dead" problem......
The windows should be diferent... 1.0.3 WWE instead of 1.0.1 WWE for the arabic problem... give it reset just afer the first time you see the Today screen, and manualy run the cab files in the Extenden rom. with out all the arabic stuff.....
You can also leave all the stuff out you don't need, like the KSE Fax stuf.. Saves some program memory.
Cheers.
Pinooo, Mda was dead but boot loader was working, so I decide to do a pure experiment. I returned my original German ROM to Compact ( I had a copy since first English-MDA_NL ROM Flash) Then I copied it to SD using MTTY with d2s 80000000 4000000, after as it was written above. ……so I had a SD with Jam ROM, but friendly speaking I replaced it back with MDA-NL. JAM ROM was not so stable, my compact used to self reset and hanged up few times. So it is better to wait until official MDA WWE NL ROM I suppose it would be soon. Now my device working just perfectly comparing to MDA II and I am very happy with English ROM. All that dealing with Jam ROM and other stuff is just a sport to me!
Should I remove the SIMCARD During Rom Flashing?
Iwant to do an English upgrade for my MDA Compact bought in Germany.
Must I remove the Simcard first during the whole process? or can I simply do it without having to remove it?
BTW, what is MMTY? is that already in the 240,000 KB Zipped file? or should download it from somewhere?
Please help me. Thank for your help in advance.
MTTY = romupgrade.exe
And the imate JAM ROM is tottaly stable! And there is a dramatic improvement in the pictures quality and the video quality! Video is smooth and does not have those vertical brakes anymore.
I guess your copy of imate JAM ROM was corrupted since I use that ROM in my MDA for a week now and I didn't have a single Reset!

Hello, i have done lot of reading there about all upgrades on our Magician's.. So for everyone who is new here to this forum, there is latest update available with easy few steps to upgrade
ROM version 1.12.00 WWE
Radio version 1.13.00
Protocol version 1337.43
ExtROM version 1.12.131 WWE
It's an IMATE ROM, with CZ (Czech) customized ExtROM. so anyone who want to cook his own ROM, just
download this file > http://live61.com/mda/yourownEXT.nb1 and follow Extended ROM steps above
It's complete Dump of my device, including CE ROM, EXT ROM and RADIO STACK. This update flawlessly worked on 3 devices i had in my hands.. So I hope, it will help you with no problems. (no need to change any 440bytes and other 'hacks' found there in forum).
Install is so easy
1. download NB1 file http://dc.live61.com/mda/Imate_WWE_1.12_1.13_1.12.131.nb1
2. write it on your SD card (at least 128mb) with NTRW application - "ntrw.exe write Imate_WWE_1.12_1.13_1.12.131.nb1 g:" (g: as your SD card drive letter)
3. insert SD card to MDA, and enter bootloader with CAMERA+POWER buttons together with RESET
4. after about 8 seconds you will get message with "Sections=2, press Power.." so press Power button and wait until "Checksum OK" message appears. Then reset your MDA
Thats it!
Customized Extended ROM
1. install this plugin to your Total Commander. (restart of PC needed!) http://live61.com/mda/VirtualDisk_1.30b2.rar
2. mount as an virtual image yourownEXT.nb1 file
3. make here your desired changes and unmount it
4. run WinHEX, open modified yourownEXT.nb1 (ouch.. i know, you need this.. http://sweb.cz/ftp1/WinHexSerial.txt)
5. select whole file with CTRL+A and copy to clipboard CTRL+C
6. open Imate_WWE_1.12_1.13_1.12.131.nb1 file, go to OFFSET 2C0019C and write clipboard data with CTRL+B
7. save Imate_WWE_1.12_1.13_1.12.131.nb1 and follow Install steps
If anything goes wrong, please let me know. Good luck. John

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.

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.
Hi,
I've got a Touch Cruise that I've flashed several times three days ago.
First I've done the hardSPL flash, CID unlock and SIM unlock.
After this I've flashed with a 6.1 rom (M-Amine 2.0) but I was seaking for a more "finger-friendly" UI so I've tried Kostas's C2 rom.
It's after flashing with Kostas's C2 rom that the problem first appeared. After a hour I could'nt launch any software. As File Explorer was already executing, I tried to launch exe files directly, but there were no more files in phone storage memory.
I softreset the device and it failed to boot (everlasting windows starting logo).
I've hardreseted the device and it booted successfully.
So I flashed the device with pcarvalho eXtreme :
pcarvalho eXtreme (3.60.WM65X) ROM 3.19 R0 Release (101MB RAM) [23557] (non3D) [16-Apr] (fixed)
It flash well, run for two or three hours and I noticied that my ringtones mysteriously changed to the default one. Using the File Explorer I checked the content of storage memory and it was all corrupted. Missing folders, files with non-alphanumeric names in root folder...
After a hard-reset my phone works well.
Things I've done after each installation : Contact+sms restore using PPCPimBackup, TomTom installation (7.918.xxx)
My Rom :
OS Version : 5.2.23557
Radio Version : 1.59.46.12
Anybody knows where can it come from ?
Thanks

it can be a many number of things...but you can start by check the card first...every time you go from one rom to another check it and save things (important ones)
now you can only try to get things back with getdataback (always worked with me)...
cheers
Thanks for the answer. It's not my storage card that lose data but phones internal storage memory.
It happened again just now, while installing a cab file.
I've got the impression that it's linked to cab installer since the other times I have installed a CAB to (tomtom) but it could be the fact that cab installer is writing data on defective memory.
Is there a way to test the internal storage memory in order to check if the problem is hardware ?
Finally it happened again, without cab install, without any manipulation after the hard reset.
I switched back to M-Amine 2.0 (WM 6.1) and it seems to have resolved the problem.
It's like the file system driver used in windows mobile 6.5 don't works well with my phone, wich can explain the file renaming, file disappearance, directory loss etc...
I would like to have a solution to switch back to WM 6.5 and a more recent version of HTC applications, so if anybody have any idea where can it come from...
Sorry to post three messages in a row, but there may be a thing I misunderstood.
In Pcarvalho rom thread I've seen this :
There seem to be HR and MC losing data issues with some roms, so i recommend flashing a htc original rom and only then this one, before proceeding as always make a backup of all data before attempting to use this rom...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But I don't know what HR and MC stands for here.... Is this concerning only the Storage Card or phone's Internal memory can also be problematic ?
I may have to flash back to an official rom before try again a WM 6.5 rom.
The problem have disappeared since I'm back to a WM 6.1 rom

i've been trying with android while waiting for pcarvalho next release. i am using task29 and radio.nbh to clean up the rom. what i noticed is that ( and i believe) task29 does not really clean the ROM, because after flashing many times android ( and i always use Task29, then flash android rom) the problem that i have ( lock SD card and its r/o status) did not disappear. i've been switching from rom to rom to rom (different build) , trying to elimante the problem. at last i flash back pcarvalho's rom back, than task29, than back to android. the problem solve. i donno may be because task29 only perform quick format instead of full format. the problem stays. i think ( maybe i am wrong) the bigger the size of the rom file is better as it rewrite the whole rom instead of small section of rom.
i guess...
It's surely something like this, i've just flashed with an official rom and flashed with pcarvalho's one and this time it works like a charm. (by the way, thanks to all cookers for their works).
So the problem is resolved, I had misunderstood the problem of data loss as it does not affect only the storage card data but also phone's internal storage memory.
Thanks to all.

Take the file with extension .NBH from your custom ROM(but the radio version must be compatible with the ROM) and rename it POLAIMG.NBH,copy it on your SD Card,put your sd card on the phone and Reset with stylus.Press greenkey and the flash will begin !
Success !
