Extended ROMs for T-Mobile MDA Pro - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Hi,
Sorry for the more than likely, stupid question, but what exactly does the Extended ROM do? Am I right in thinking its just the additional settings that the providor wants to add, customise... etc...
The reason I ask is I have a T-Mobile MDA Pro, which I've upgraded the Radio from 1.06.00 to 1.11.00, and noticed great differences.
I've upgraded the CE Image to 1.30.77 with the lates QTek WWE Rom, again, it's solved problems...
But should I upgrade the Extended ROM to 1.30.230? Or stick with T-Mobile's 1.20.120? Will I notice any benefits, or will I just lose T-Mobile's customisations, gain some which are of no benefit, and muck up me phone???
Regards!!
Dave.

Did you manage to get any software out of T-Mobile UK?

There's two official T-Mobile ROMs for the MDA Pro, the latest being available on the T-Mobile site, and also on this FTP
Regards

Hi
I uploaded the latest T-Mobile extended rom to FTP a while ago. I have installed the QTEK ext rom (well, most of it), and then I run the T-Mobile cabs to add accounts for MMS etc etc.
Just hard reset the device and then do a soft reset before the extended rom installs, then cherry-pick the bits of the ext rom that you wish to install.
From QTEK:
MP-Shorcut-MMS1-Java5xx-CyberonVoice-CV-0512
MP_CVSDcpl_20060216.cab
MP_EnableDRM_UAProfile_Universal_AKU2.0_0512
MP_Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB
MP_mHub_WWE_051226.CAB
PP_ECall(112-911)_UNI.CAB
PT_UAProf_UNI.CAB
From Tmob
CAB-Customization-TMUK-Universal-01-05-16NOV

Seems to work fine. There are some explanations of what does what in other threads scattered about these forums.

02 XDAII Extended ROM - WM2003SE

I upgraded to WM2003SE a while back and at the time had an Orange SIM in my XDAII and my 02 SIM in my E200 Smartphone. The extended ROM I used was Orange specific and contained all the necessary GPRS Configs etc
Anyways, I've now got a C500 with my Orange SIM in it and so the 02 Sim is back in my XDAII and I'm looking for a good External Rom dump that contains the UK 02 GPRS/WAP/MMS Configs etc and is compatible with WM2003SE.
Can anyone point me in the direction of one, I have looked and tried one or two but none have the correct configs for 02's GPRS service (Pay monthly not PAYG).
TIA
Did you get anywhere with this, Darren? I'm just wondering whether to upgrade my O2 XDAII to WM2003SE but the lack of dedicated O2 Ext.rom files (as far as I can tell) is putting me off.
I didn't but don't let that stop you, the SE upgrade is well worth it. I just removed all the O2 specific rubbish from the Ext ROM and it's fine.
Thanks for the reply.
I'd love to upgrade but without the O2 auto-config software in the ExtROM I wouldn't have a clue where to start configuring all the network, SMS, MMS etc settings for O2 pay monthly. Do you know of a guide or something somewhere?
Secondly, I searched earlier to try and find out which was the best ROM to use for those of us in the UK, but there didn't seem to be a definitive answer. Would you mind telling me which ROM you used and where you got it from if you're happy with it? I need Bluetooth headset, BT GPS, BT ActiveSync, speakerphone to work perfectly to consider upgrading. Currently my XDAII works like a charm with ROM 1.72 but some people seem to have had trouble with the SE upgrade and Bluetooth.
Thanks a bunch in advance.
I use all those BT functions alos, I used the 2.02 ROM available at the beginning of this thread.
I've left the auto config files in the Ext ROM so there is no need to manually configure anything. I have had zero issues with it since the upgrade I'm happy to upload my Ext ROM to an FTP if you want it?
The only critical noe I found was to remove the 'TPDisable' entry in the Ext ROM when performing the upgrade as you receive a lot of 'This isn't designed for WM2003SE' messages and with TPDisable enbled you can't click OK!

Forgive me if I'm being a bit fick, but I can't see where you mean. Have you a ROM available through your pocketgpsworld.com website? Or is there only one 2.02 ROM available and I can download it from this site's FTP? I thought the 2.02 ROM was the Chinese one.

I didn't know it was possible to upgrade the OS ROM without touching the ExtROM. I'm not a noob with the XDAII, but I've found the myriad threads and discussions on the question of 2003SE upgrades very confusing! Since there seems to be no obvious single solution I haven't known where to start.
If you have a working ExtROM for the XDAII on O2 UK and you wouldn't mind uploading it somewhere (this site?) I'd be very grateful. If you wouldn't mind pointing me to the main OS ROM image that you used as well then that'd be groovy too.

I guess that's achieved by editing the config file in the ExtROM once it's all installed after an upgrade?
Sorry, I thought this was the original WM2003SE thread! The download I used is at the beginning of this thread.
It's a while since I upgraded mine, I had thought the Ext ROM remained intact but reading the thread instructions apparently not. Sorry I can't help more but as I say it's some months sisnce I did it!
Aaah. OK. Thanks again, but I think I'll leave it in that case. I don't yet feel brave enough to start messing about with home-cooked ExtROMs if you don't have yours handy. It was good of you to offer though.

Vodafone VPX rom wanted

I've had a look around the FTP but to no avail.
Is there a WWE VPX rom around anywhere, or a link to download one from the voda site? I've tried looking but not found one yet.
Device is PH20B currently on 1.42, 1.13 and O2 ext rom from their latest release.
looking for the same thing for months, no luck either
Is it possible to steal the theme then from the VPA ROM? The cool red and silver one.
What I have done is use the T-Mob 1.42 ROM with the VPA Ext Rom.
The main language was english, but anything that was installed by the ext rom became german - so not much use to me.
yep
did the same thing, does not work well
Lordao
Here you go guys, The Vodafone theme
I've got a German VPX rom. As I'm a lazy muppet can anyone host this for me / walk me through uploading it to the FTP? It's no longer on their site.
Richard
I'm searching for the newst ROM file for the Vodafone VPx..
Rightnow I have
Rom version: 1.22.00 WWE
Rome Date: 10/22/04
Radio version: 1.06.00
Protocol version: 1337.38
ExtROM version: 1.22.155 WWE
I assume it's too old ROM, Where to find the new one?
Should the one for PDA2K or Qtek9090 ROM work on my device??
Waiting for reply
Vodafone WWE Ext ROM..
Downloaded the Vodafone skin posted above, thanks
However does anyone have the UK Vodafone Ext ROM, or even a WWE one from somewhere else? I assume the company specific Ext ROM adds different functionality other than a skin...
Aim is to use most current ROM/Radio on O2 XDA IIs with a vodafone Ext ROM as I'll be using a Vodafone SIM... noticed a German Ext ROM for Vodafone VPAIII dated 140206 on the FTP site, can this be switched to English, and is it compatible with the O2 XDAIIs etc.?
Well a search gave me this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=46603&highlight=voda*
The rom is old and not in the wiki list due to the fact nobody cared to add it even though its no the ftp site.
hmmm...

Yip, been there, seen that, but I dont kow how to extract the ext rom stuff from the .exe
So I did search, I did read, but I didn't know what the next step was, hence the reason for asking someone to upload an ext rom to the kitchen other than the GER versions...
OK, went back to the WIKI and now realise that all I need is the ms_.nbf file from the WWE version mentioned above :shock: :shock: The question now is, how can I install that with a 1.40/1.42 ROM?
Well you don't
The Ext rom conmsits of apps and patches that are made for a rom version.
The apps are no problem the patches are as they will over write the files that have most likely been updated in the new rom.
(As in BT stack in 1.22 ships as 1.xx in the rom,
got updated to 1.xy in the ext rom
and the rom 1.40 its now 1.yy.
Run the ext rom then you are back to 1.xy)
So if you want to have the same carrier related stuff on a none same carrier rom then you save the cabs of the ext rom before you upgrade.
As for the vodaphone thing, well we have had no ship roms in the 1.4x family and no wwe ext roms uploaded. So what ever you want to do you have yourself.
BA kitchen goes into that in more detail I know as I wrote it.
Almost there... (Thanks to the Wiki & Forum)!
OK, finally took the plunge...
O2 XDAIIs arrived yesterday, Rom 1.31... updated straight away to the O2 update from there site (available on this site Xda_IIs_Upgrade_v140242.exe) and all went well... I then added a Vodafone skin but that wasn't really good enough It meant I still had the O2 Active gubbins all over my PDA which is of course no use...
Long night ahead I thought... and I was right
I now have the 1.42 CE ROM with the 1.15 Radio ROM and a cooked version of the Vodafone German EXT_ROM with many of the items replaced with the most current items from the Kitchen!
I still have a few niggles... double entries of files etc such as Windows media player, album etc (1 GER, 1 WWE) but the GER ones crap out and the WWE ones work... all I need to do now is work out which bits are installed by what in the original stuff and I should be able to sort it...
I have one request... could someone please post the UK Vodaphone version of the CAB which sets up the Vodafone Live! stuff? my vodafone live is all screwed up and looking for German stuff...
I will keep you informed in a new thread as to how my continued conversion goes!
Thanks to all who have updated the forum/Wiki it has been no end of help and I have a hybrid set of roms, with a cooked ext_rom and fully functional WiFi/BT/GPRS/MMS witin 24 hrs of receiving my XDA and taking the plunge... major kudos to you all!
As MDAUSERIII says... read the Wiki, and all will become clear!
Try this http://www.vodafone-dataworld.co.uk/uploads/BA_VF_UK_14000_238_11300_Ship.exe
Nice link
How did you get to that file so I can post it to wiki.
Where'd you find that!?!?!

Awesome link! D/Ling just now... then reflash (again!)
I'm now in a bit of a quandry... having finally got a data enabled device (BA as opposed to my mobile and Palm T3) I am now looking to use my data services more, but I have looked around for the best deals (I use PAYG) and it looks to be between O2 and Orange... the price of data on Vodafone is just too damned high...
I'l load this up and see how it goes first... thanks for your help

Upgrade my MDA Pro !

I have a german T-Mobile MDA Pro with the official T-Mobile AKU 2.0 from May 2006. Is there any stable upgrade I could apply to my MDA? Maybe T-Mobile released something officially? I read that there are already Windows Mobile 5 AKU 3.0 and later floating floating around for other brands? Where is the one for MDA Pro?

I am currently using the Helmi’s AKU 3.5. If you are new in ROM upgrades, you may choose the Helmi’s AKU 3.3 which is more reliable.
Bdw. MDA PRO is base on HTC Universal (that is the production name)

Agree.
Me using Helmi_c Aku3.5 v1.3 too. Performance is great except no speedial!
Also think Helmi_c Aku3.3 v1.2 is the best ROM so far except for not having Windows Live.
Works better with Radio 1.14.10, but depend of your network provider.
What is Radio 1.14.10 ?
And what do you mean with Windows Live? Does some Microsoft AKU contain already some windows live services that where promised for "crossbow" (WM6.0)? What are those? Or is this some ugly homwbrew hack?

Helmi_c Aku3.3 v1.2 works better with "Radio ROM" ? Can you explain what a radio ROM is for (as opposed to a normal ROM such as Helmi's ROM" ?

I suggest you go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286036 and download the Helmi aku3.5 v1.3. -Its very reliable and considerably faster than what you will have installed already. I strongly recommend that you back up to MS OUTLOOK before updating if you dont wish to lose your calander events or contacts.
To answer your question, the so-called 'Radio ROM' is actually an update of the mobile phone (aka radio) firmware. Helmi's package includes a previous radio firmware version which is fine. The package also includes the latest available firmware upgrade (or AKU) of the Windows Mobile 5 operating system. This firmware upgrade of the OS is not yet officially released by MS, but has leaked and has since been tweaked by such jolly fine chaps as Helmi.
By the way, you'll be quite confused by the mixed use of ROM, extended ROM, hard/cold boot, etc (eg. everyone knows that ROM = 'Read Only Memory' and that the AKU and RADIO upgrades are actually written to EEPROM or equivalent memory type). Dont worry too much about it though, the lingua franca grows on you and the support from the community is excellent
Go ahead and try to update your universal after backing it up.
Your next post should be either "WOW, thats much better!!" or "CRAP, how do I get the damned thing to update??!!"
before I actually go for an upgrade I still have some worries:
1. won't I loose the german language on my phone (keyboard, äöü, T9, UI Language) ?
2. on some screenshots I have seen a "3G" Icon, but in germany it is UMTS and I want to keep the U Icon
3. When upgrading the Radio ROM, will everything still work fine with the operator T-Mobile such as MobileTV, streaming, MMS, Videophonie or this automatic image compression service offered by t-mobile germany (automatically compresses all images on websites to save traffic).
Just to make you feel safe, you can go to your T-Mobile website, download your current ROM from there.
So even how good the new ROM is, if you do not like it, flash back the old one.
can anybody answer my 3 questions ?

There is NO official AKU 3 out yet for the Universal. I don't think there will ever be. ALL the AKU 3 you see here are made by members and any Universal device can use them.

bitbonk,
As mentioned there is no official AKU 3.X for Universal.
AKU 3.X ROM’s that you find here are tailored to functionality by some brilliant guys in this forum. Indeed those are generally in English.
However if you choose to use them you will lose your German language but you may able to find batches that allows you to reconfigure. I do also believe your specific T-mobile related functionality will be lost.
in case your decide to give a try for one this available ROM’s then as CWKJ has suggested you can download you current original ROM from T-Mobil for back up
However please take NOTE this forum is for guys they like to test and develop.
I think I am using my universal more for upgrading and testing some ROM’s rather for daily usage. Therefore if you decide start to use one of this ROM’s be prepared to be infected with “XDA developers Virus”. This Virus is not infecting your device but its effecting you live
This will lead you spending most of your free time in this forum and on your device.
Instead bringing news paper to “rest room” you will bring your Universal.
If anyone tries to call you on your device, they will be not able to contact you as device docked on your computer for ROM upgrade or trying any reg. code.
Your Girlfriend/wife will start to complain: “I wish you would love me same as you loving your Universal”
So bro think carefully on what you decide :0)
LOL !!! ...
Good one.
I am trying to get my other half to be infected too.
Read somewhere in this forum, cannot remember which thread, a guy say his girlfriend complaint that he is doing too much ROM. Some other guys in this forum suggest him to give his girlfiend some RAM before continue with his ROM.
LOL !!! ...
So much of joke aside.
This are all self cooked ROMs. Our hardware maker for $ making seek unlikely to give any of us any update (only once in April 06).
1. You will lose the German Language as this is a WWE (World Wide English) ROM. But you can make a search in this forum for a forumer by name Asukal who is an expert in language. You should find some language patch (for read & write) to make up for the missing German Language.
2. "3G" is a "display only bug" in the Aku3.x which should be "U" for Voice service. For Web browsing service or Video, etc, instead seeing "U", you see "G" (a bug too).
3. UMTS/3G using this ROM with Radio image (any version, but latest official T-Mobile is version 1.13.00 and some test version 1.14.10 which seems to work pretty well with this Helmi_c Aku3.5 V1.3) have no problem with Voice Call, SMS, MMS, Video Call, Web browsing, etc. Other T-Mobile specific service (MobileTV, streaming, image compression), I think it should be in your Extended Rom, not Radio. You can just flash nk.nbf (Aku part) and Radio_.nbf (radio part) and do not flash the ms_.nbf (extended rom part).
Lastly, only after flashing, you will get all your questions answer until the day you try it.
Before flashing, backup your T-Mobile splash screen (if any) because splash screen of Helmi's ROM is O2, Indra's is imate, the other 2 I have not tried.
Remember to use MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe, (do not use ROMUpgradeUt.exe), to flash.
Good luck.
thank you for your help.
So maybe there is a e preconfigured ROM/radio upgrade (AKU 3.x) with german language floating around that is known to work well with german t-mobile ? Any german t-mobilers around here?
Why not go into the helmi thread and ask if someone has a compatible german language patch? You can probably set up the T Mobile stuff manually....

Latest ROM for AT&T 8525

I lost my data due to a crash. I need the Official ROM for the AT&T 8525. They only posted it on the HTC web site for a little while (why, I don't know?)
It is:
ROM version 3.62.502.3
ROM date 10/11/07
Radio version 1.54.07.00
Protocol version 32.86u.7020.23H
I live in USA and have an English phone, AT&T is my carrier.
Would someone kindly point me to a download link for this if it's available somewhere?
I've searched here a lot, but can't discern between all the new third party ROMs. I haven't done any hacking to my AT&T, just need the original WM Pro 6 ROM.
thanks,
Charlie

Does Anyone Have The MDA Compact IV 1.93 Rom?

I have a UK MDA Compact IV running the official 1.37 rom, I have read through some of the threads posted here that some users were getting back their UK MDA Compact IV's from repair center with the new Tmobile 1.93 roms flashed on there. I was hoping there was a dump of this rom somewhere? Tmobiles UK site doesn't even have the phone listed in the support section! Any help would be appreciated.
it'd be nice to have this as well, as you said, t-mobile lack any kind of support or mentioning of the phone on the site
Strange, in the past 2 weeks ive bought 2 MDAC's (one for me and one for the missus) and both came with 1.37.
T-Mobile UK reply
Just read this thread and there answer that I received from T-Mobile UK about update
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=443465
= (
Yeah uk t-mobile is so behind the other countries t-mobile
My MDA went in for repair for camera fault and came back with 1.93 (and still had the camera fault) they have now given me a replacement phone with 1.37.
The short while I had 1.93 it seemed much quicker than this so would also be interested in the new one if any one has it?
Also spoke to T-mobile they replied with "Not aware of any update" most helpful.
My wifes T-MO compact IV went in for a screen repair, came back repaired looking brand new (same IMEI), but it had the 1.93 rom and 1.00.25.16 radio ROM on it. Yet my new handset came with 1.37 ROM and 1.00.25.03 radio ROM.
Tmobile official "German update" is avalaible throu download from t-mobile.de
think its the same for your MDA version its 1.97 already, also 1.93 is avail !
So try your t-mobile site -> Buisness center -> support / Downloads -> select you MDA Vendor select "t-Mobile". There you should get Official update, no need of an HardSPL and no warranty lost.
Also when i go to tmobile shop i can get them to update my device cost free here in germany, normaly takes them 3-4 hours then you can get ur device back
Is it possible to change the language of a stock ROM? i.e. Update to the latest German Compact IV ROM then change the language to English?

So try your t-mobile site -> Buisness center -> support / Downloads -> select you MDA Vendor select "t-Mobile". There you should get Official update, no need of an HardSPL and no warranty lost.

Is it possible to change the language of a stock ROM? i.e. Update to the latest German Compact IV ROM then change the language to English?

Nope I guess not. Besides that every language has it's own Manila-version so if you were able to change the system language there would still be the german manila.
i ve tried the german update and even though i have
no idea how to cook a rom and i can imagine that
this is really hard and time consuming work i really
think pupils on the lowest school grade could have
made it much better than tmobile. its that much laggu
that its realy not funny using this rom. but for
suppprt and warrenty i agree it might be usefull
having an original rom
Yeah, we just need one of the lucky few who actually get their phones back with the uk 1.93 rom to dump it for us.
I dont know why T-Mobile UK are dragging their heels. They hardly ever issue new ROMs. Vodafone UK have issued not one but two ROM updates for their Diamond.
After Sales Support at T-Mobile UK = "Get a new phone"
Even T-Mob.cz have a new ROM.
T-Mob UK want to force people to resort to illegal ROM updates.
If any T-Mob UK execs read this forum..... Please wake up and support the people who are bringing in your bread and butter

Cheers. Got it. To be honest I gave up looking for it there as it seemed they were never going to release it. Just thought I'd give it a whirl see how it compares with Shaks rom
