I uploaded the extended rom for the MDA PRO English. Nice touch, it contains Dutch T9.
it's in the upload directory, called mda_pro_nl_extrom.zip
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/mda_pro_eng_nl_extrom.zip
(adding it to this post gave an error message)
This file is only 1.5 MB?
I suppose it is not the full ROM image. What does it contain?
I am trying to revive a dead JasJar and wondering if this is the correct thing to load.
It is the Extended ROM, not the OS Rom, and will therefore only contains the English T-Mobile additions.
hi its only 1.28 mb..im guessing its not the full version.. can you poist teh full version tahnbks
@ Wiz,
would you know the actual application name of these cabs? I'm just wondering what are the included apps that are not in JasJar
** dont want to run each cab to see what's worth it or not
thanks!
How did you access to the extended rom? I tired to access to it in order to remove the Arabic support of my JasJar, but I cannot get it, the soft of my 9090 do not seems to work
Thanks !
I used www.ghisler.com Total Commander for PocketPC and typed in \Extended_Rom\ in the command line and pressed enter. I then copied everything to storage card
Could you please indicate which one installs the T-Mobile coloured dialer skin?
Another thing: there is no difference in available memory (both program and storage) after a hard reset with installing T-Mobile extended ROM or wihout installing extended ROM. This could be the case due to the fact that the installed software has approximately the same size as the CAB-files. As I have no access to the Extende ROM (nor Windows folder via ActiveSync) I am afraid that I am missing valuable memory after installing from the file of Wiz and that somewhere the CAB files still exist on my device. Does someone know where I can find (and delete) the Extended ROM and which CAB-files I should install and what the meaning is of each CAB-file?
Many thanks in advance

Ok it works thanks, but... it is on "read only" cannot erase some stuff
The Extended rom currently cannot be "unhidden" or "made writable". We need the experts from XDA Developers for this .... The only thing you can currently do is copy them to a storage card and install them manually.
Incidentally I was wrong about the file that does the T-Mobile dialer skin etc. The file that should not be installed manually is:
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB,
(I justed tested and confirmed that myself
Hi wiz

Wiz!
Would it mean that If I take the corrsponding cab: Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB from the O2 XDAExec extended rom I would Get the Dialer scin form the O2 XDA EXEC ?
PLus can someone PLease upload the extended ROM from JASJAR.
Oh and something else which cab file is responcible for the MSN ?
does anyone know which file includes the T9 dutch?
I do not want the rest I only want the T9 on my mda-pro back again
well I beleive it is the t9dutch.ldb I can get it off my MDA PRo it is still with the crappy t-mobile ROM, if that helps let me know and give me your e-mail adress. But again I saw this file in the windows directory, so maybe I am wrong and you need the install for it
Hi,
I have got confused with the various bricked posts, misnamed WWE update posts etc.
What I would like to know is the following:
1. Does the imate update (english) work on the MDA Pro?
2. Does anyone have the original T-Mobile version for returning it to the release T-mob version?
3. Does doing an upgrade invalidate my warranty with T-Mob?
My issue with current roms is that the device crashes at least once a day, and I am getting fed up with reboots.
Thanks,
Joe
It works fine with the MDA Pro, I have mine running the JASJAR Rom.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/MDA_PRO_JASJAR_ROM_UPGRADE_WWE_11353_137_10301.zip
Download that, it has the No Device ID exe.
hi, did the ROM change speed up your MDA pro in any way? also does the video calling feature still work.
This really interests me too.. Any answers out there please?
P :?:
Mine does seem a little quicker, especially after overwriting the iMate supplied .tsk files for the homescreens.
WiFi a *bit* more stable, but not perfect.
So... If I download that file, unpack it onto my UK T-Mobile MDA PRO and run it, I will have the latest software on the MDA PRO?
Are there any 'issues'?
Will I lose any data\ programs\settings etc.?

You run the install from a PC, having put the phone into "bootloader" mode. As far as I know, its a newer ROM version than is supplied with the MDA Pro, and also doesn't contain the T Mobile customisation. It DOES include MSN and Skype as standard, as well as a couple of other bits.
It will totally wipe your phone / settings, but if you select T Mobile UK after you install the new ROM, most of the T Mobile settings are reconfigured for you. You just have to do the 3G one yourself, but the details are in another thread (possibly in the main Universal area of this forum).
Imate produce regular ROM upgrades for their other phones, so it is likely they'll release a new ROM before Orange / O2 / T Mobile manage it.

Just got the MDA pro. How do i upgrade the Rom? I dun really understand how to go to the registry as well? Any help?? Really appreciate it. Thanks.
The link for the update i mate jasjar rom is not working??
Someone moved it :roll:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_JASJAR_ROM_UPGRADE_WWE_11353_137_10301.zip
Newbie in need of help.
Thanks for the ftp link. Regarding about getting into the registry? How do i do that? And how do i update the rom.
I got some problem with my mda pro sync with my laptop?
It say cant detect the device. I cant install the driver either. Anyone have the same problem with the mda pro or only me?
Do anybody know how can i unlock the mda pro?
Thanks.
Reply really appreciated.
unlocking mda pro
Hi, I think the only way to unlovk the MDA at present is via the subsidy code from T Mobile. In the UK you can only do this after you have completed a month on contract and t mobile will charge you 15 pounds for the priviledge. On 02 the devices come unlocked for any network.
with ref to the ROM update to WWE jasjar, this is an absolute must for ALL t mobile users. I can confirm things are stable all round, but don't expect you can get away from those periodic resets - M$ seem to have built in this feature in all pocket PC OS ! - yes I am calling this a feature of the OS now.
Look around on the forums here on how to flash there are some very good posts about.
Remember, most important if you want stability only install essential software.

Mda pro usb activesync problem
Hi thank for the reply. You mean i should change it to the jasjar rom which is the link above? I am new to pda phones and need some help.
I cant connect my device to my laptop using usb. It say device not detected.
I install the software and it should work rite. Is there something i didnt do? I read the manual saying install the software then have sync relationship with the pc and device. How do i sync the relationship? Do i just plug in the usb to my laptop then it will automatically detect my mda pro?

I recently upgraded my O2 Xda Exec with the imate JJ rom (ROM Version: 1.30.82 WWE). But after a hard reset, I keep getting the following error:
Code:
Can not run on this device.
Upon investigating, I have discovered that the pocket arabizer cabs are installed during the customization after a hard reset. The similar rom (and the mentioned cabs) are working flawlessly on my other universal (imate jasjar) but on my O2, i keep getting the above error (i.e. can not run on this device). Is there a way to get the arabizer cabs to working nicely with my O2? Help in this regard would be appreciated.
help, please help. just say something. just kiddin'
hopefully, someone will come along and offer some valuable help.
T-Mobile is doing the same thing
My T-Mobile MDA Pro is doing the sme thing, it must be a way to tell the ROM that my T-Mobile is a JasJar...and I have used the "no_ID" and it did not work...
HELP
The imate roms (dont know if only from the Jasjar) have something builtin (don't know if cab file in extrom or in the rom itself) that only allows installation on imate jasjars. I think its some sort of list or program which checks the imei.
My observations so far are:
1. I have tried a custom extended rom, specially designed to avoid any cabs that might check the imei. This meant using a custom config file and autorun file from O2.
2. Only IMEI checking cab I have found so far is the 'Default_CAAVPPC_IMEI_2.6.80_range.cab' -- it is CA Antivirus software. I think it checks the IMEI.
3. I have tried with certain telco provided cabs (e.g. Mobily, Etisalat_UAE, etc.), to see if this works. It doesn't.
4. What does Install_tsk.exe do?
5. I have tried with different rom, but extended rom from imate JJ, but that doesn't work either.
6. Is there a way to fix this problem? I have seen this problem with several other people in this forum, but no concrete solution is found yet.
7. Can somebody else confirm that, indeed there is some IMEI checking in the imate roms?
8. being able to use the imate JJ roms on O2 indicates that there is no IMEI checking in the ROM itself.
9. Help is desparetly needed. :roll:
S.D.
JasJar on T-Mobile
I have tried everything since I got my T-Mobile and I installed like 100 ROMs trying to make my T-Mobile MDA Pro thinks that it is a JasJar...but no luck...
I have installed the WWE JasJar with no problem, I think the problem is installing the ME version with Arabizer and the AntiVirus software...and yes it does check the IMEI number...
My T-Mobile now officially an O2 but it seems like it refused to think that it is a localized version of the iMate JasJar.
Is there a way that makes my T-Mobile thinks it is a JasJar????
this seems to be an issue with a lot of people. can we have some experts to help us out?
IT CAN NOT BE DONE...SORRY

I think that the "Arabizer" developers had locked in the software to work only on the iMates...with specific IMEI numbers, I have installed the WWE ROM on my T-Mobile and it works fine but when I install the ME ROM it does not work...
I AM GIVING UP...
Hi everyone,
I'm looking for someone who already managed to upgrade a german T-Mobile MDA compact III to WM6. Has anyone experiences with this? It's my business phone and I don't want to break it.
1. Is there any chance to reflash the old WM5 ROM if something goes wrong?
2. How can I save the old ROM!?
3. Do I need to setup any regional settings if I use the O2 ROM for example?
Thanks for all answers!

You shurely can use the O2 ROM. Regional settings? You can change the regional settings in the ROM, but you don´t neet to if you use the german version of the O2 ROM.
There is a way to make a backup of your curent ROM to a storagecard. Use the search..
You should make a backup of your pim (contacts, tasks, calendar etc.) with PPCPimBackup because you can restor them with thiis program, but not with SPB Backup..
Is your phone sim- or netlocked? Normally the german tmob devices are..
IMPORTANT: You can update - but before you flash your rom with any new os (like the O2) do the "uspl" (CID Unlock) first!
Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308242
I have updated mine. Everything works fine, but the menues are in English.
The phone must be CID unlocked then you can flash any ROM you like. You can also find a CAB for T9 input in German.
Ciao
Thanks a lot guys for all the information. I'll report later if it worked...
Success
Thanks for all your information!
Everything worked fine.
At first I tried to make an backup, but I was not really successful, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=312871&page=5
But it didn't matter because I found a german wm5 rom for t-mobile:
XDA-DEV FTP -> "Uploads/Upload/Official MDA Compact III ROM/MDA Compact III German.exe"
So here is a conclusion for all noobs, like me:
1. Run USPL, get it here and read all the stuff: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
2. Patch any ROM you like, for example one of those: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=362 or get one on the xda-dev ftp
I tried three or four of the ROMs from the forum, it was possible to flash them all, but I had to try it twice to "remove" the german O2 ROM (flash another ROM over the O2), but maybe I did something wrong in the first place.
What I would finally like is a T-Mobile branded german WM6 ROM. If anyone could give me some tipps where to start, I would appreciate it. I think it should be possible to extract the german O2 WM6 OS and somehow mix it with the T-Mobile stuff from the WM5 ROM. I know there is a lot information here on the forum, but any hint is nevertheless very appreciated

what t-mobile stuff you like on phone?
try the Black&Blue 3.7 GERMAN ROM or wait 1-2 month for the HTC WM6 ROM or cook by your self
*ps i have an O² xda orbit but my provider is t-mobile. i currently use the WM6 GER of O²
I have been reading threads for 3 days. I am not new to gadgets, but I am new to the german language. I just biught a T-Mobile MDA Compact III-german. I need to convert to English and would like if possible to enable WiFi if I can. Would someone who is very smart send me-
1) The files I need
2) Step by Step directions
3) The best idea on GPS software and loading.
Help Help Help! I admit I am a NEWB, but without newbs, the rest of you wouldnt feel smart!!!!
Thanks for any help!!!!
If you don't mind loosing the T-mobile add-ons you can download the English version of the WM6 ROM from the HTC site. Be aware that you will start with a 'clean' sustem and that you have to configure your connections to be able to use GPRS and internet. At the site you can download the manual with the information about configuring your device including WiFi.
I'm not sure what you mean with "The best idea on GPS software and loading", are you talking about navigation software?
G.
I tried registering my phone with the serial number on my phone to get the update from the HTC website. Even though it is the equivalent of a HTC
P3300 phone, it wasnt recognised because it was sold as a T-Mobile device. So I couldnt get the download. Any other ideas?
Anyone have the file saved? Can media markt change it to english? I would rather do it myself just for learning purposes for future changes.
