I see all these posts of o2, Qtek etc updates to radio rom etc etc but never any mention of T-Mobile updates even ringing them to find out where updates are or maybe comes back with a blank.
Do any of you know where these are or maybe if any are ever developed
Many thanks
T-Mobile is trouble.. I also have the T-mobile MDA III and have flashed it with the normal qtek ROM. It's just taking to long. They say there will be an update (t-mobile germany has released one) But the rest not.
I think it will take at least a month if not more for an update.

T-Mobile Blackberry ROM Upgrade

As far as I know it leaves the unit in German though - not sure if its possible to reflash into English.

I found that one with a Google, but as for leaving it in German for sad old me who only speaks english I don't think I'll be taking that chance searched the UK site high and low nothing why are we always the last to get anything ?
To be honest with you, T-Mobile are probably just sitting waiting for a stable rom to come out.
Despite the numerous releases by Q-tek, Imate et al, it would appear that you still have to run an abundance of patches on top of the rom to get to a semi-decent state.
O2 have only released one patch thus far, a bluetooth one which seems to solve some issues, but not all.
Problem is the numerous different suppliers. If it was one product and wasnt rebadged or branded or anything, then we could probably set up a pressure group to get something done about it.
I take it T-Mobile UK arent helping? If not, then email them weekly for updates, thats what I intend on doing with O2.

Might be a good idea but when ringing them no one has a glue I have fixed the BT issues with the I-mate fix and that now works perfectly but with new roms out from other people I'm sure us T-Mobile UK people are feeling left out

Bugger - much better than the 5mb you get with O2
CarlnAdele,
You say you backed up before applying the German ROM, does that mean you have a backup of the UK T-Mobile MDA III ROM? If so I would be greatly in your debt if you could provide a copy!
Kind Regards, waiting in hope, JDH

Yes I have a backup on my PC, basically I used the Backup ROM to SD Card method detialed here http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=151&PN=1
Which means when you copy it back to your pc using http://www.tamiminet.com/othman/ntrw.exe its the size of your memory card which in my case is 1Gb I could write this to DVD and post it to you.
Or if anyone knows how I can convert this to the .nb1 or what ever I'd be happy to do that and upload it.
Fantastic!
If you don't mind, could you compress the file with WinRAR or similar to see how big is it? if it's a reasonable size < 200mb I would be more than happy to provide a download site or perhaps it could be put onto the FTP for this forum? (although I'm not sure how that would be done)
Cheers, JDH

I'll have a go tonight but its unlikely to compress that far, I'd do it now but I cant get to the drive its on at home from work where I am now.
So we still wait on an appropriate Tmobile UK MDAIII ROM
In spite of the now famous BA_WWE_BelDT_12200_557_10602_SHIP.exe ROM file using the BaUpgradeUt.exe bat file upgrader software in conjunction with the GetDeviceData.exe modification software to input the proper switches for T-mobile UK MDAIII devices, we are better off waiting for more stable hacks or even official releases in order to solve the BT and other problems? And I just now was getting to a point where I thought the fixes were at hand. Oh well, any advice garnered through experience would prove valuable as gold here. Cheers, guys...
Willfarr,
I have applied most of the ROM updates as they have appeared on the forum and happily they seem to have helped; particularly with the low level mic issue.
The only reason I'm after the original ROM is that reading elsewhere on the board it seems that only the earlier batches of MDA IIIs (such as mine) have the yellow hue screen issue. As such, I got in touch with T-mobile and they have agreed to replace it under warranty, I just don't want to send it back with a hacked ROM in case they notice and refuse to replace it!
If you're having any software issues such as the mic problem it's probably worth trying the updates, just make a backup first!

Just uploading the zipped file now
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/MDAIII/XDAIIs.zip
You also know you'll need a 1Gb SD Card don't you and this program I have also uploaded
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/MDAIII/ntrw.exe
And to write the uncompressed zip file back to the card you do the following:
Type ntrw write XDAIIs.nb1 E: (using a dos windows where "E:" is your drive letter for the SD Card

Hi
On my BA there were some tools to do this. I am assuming that they have not yet been created for the universal yet (unless I am missing something?)
I tried the BA ones (nothing to loose), to no avail.
On my BA, I always used to cherry pick what I wanted from the extended rom post install.
Nigel
currently you can't unlock the extended rom, but with totakcommander you can type /Extended_Rom on the commandline and you'll see the content of the folder. You can start the .cab files from there or copy them to the SD card.
You can't copy anything back to the extended rom.
Wolfgang
Cheers Wolfgang!

Yaeh, i know the feeling about customs charges, i bought a Top-Gun style leather jacket from the US and it cost me an extra 54 quid on import tax and VAT

I've had that before, and not far from you either
I buy a lot of stuff from eBay, but all the customs crap (not just the fees, but all the paperwork and delays) made me limit most of my purchases to the EU. I still get stuff from the US, and the far east sometimes, but mostly just items with small (declared) value, that can slip through.
There I come to my point: I see that you have to provide a proof of the price like I had to. Since I had a private ebay purchase, I could only print the receipt from the website. As most of the gadgets I got were very uncommon, a few times I took the liberty and changed some numbers on the receipt. Nothing outrageous, of course, but still. The cumulative 8% import duty +25% VAT pissed me off a lot...
You might want to consider this if they ask for half your kingdom...

Hi i'm from the Netherlands and i just bought me a nice (T-Mobile)MDA Compact III.
I want it unlocked, searched the net and did found the imeicheck.co.uk, but i don't have a cc.
Now i found a website from a Dutch guy www.erlan.nl and he is saying he can unlock this device too, so my question is, are there any MDA Compact III user who tried this site yet? Cuz i don't wanna trow away 30 euro's
Thanks in advance for your reaction, and don't mind my crappy english.
Greetz Dennis
What type of unlocking do you need? SIM or CID?
If CID unlock is what you are after you don't need to spend a dime. Look at the top sticky on the Artemis Upgrading page.
Seems like erlan.nl is buying his unlockfiles from someone else (imei-check.co.uk?).
The program used to unlock the phone is exactly the same as that from imei-check only the name is different.
Waarom zo duur?
De reden hiervoor is dat ik per toestel ook een vergelijkbaar bedrag moet betalen. De actuele prijs staat altijd bij unlocken. Door hier een kleine marge op te houden blijf ik ook hiermee steeds zo goedkoop mogelijk.

pm-ed him and it's 100$ by western union or/and ( not so clear) 50$ by pay-pal to this forum. Well my problem for imei check is the same, i don't have a CC, and 100$ through WU is a bit too much.
So my question still remains, Did someone tried unlocking with erlan.nl??
Ok UPDATE
I could not wait any longer, so i decided to try it..
Well this guy is GOOOOD! within 5 minutes my phone was unlocked, and no paypal bull****, just internetbanking , a screenshot of the payment and this guy does his job.
I now have a SIM and CID unlocked device for 30 euro's
just visit www.erlan.nl and you will be just as happy as i am now gehe..

Hey Dnizzz,
Nice that this worked, i am thinking of this option too. Does everything still work after flashing, and do you know what ROM is installed?
I am a comlpete n00b at this too, but this forum gives a very nice insight in this matter
Fact stays that i am a little bit scared about "bricking" my device when i do something like this.
Let me know if it is relatively safe to do something like this
yeah its safe, after sim and cid unlock for 30 euro's @ erlan i've installed the black and blue rom on it and it's working nice. i'm very glad i did this.
So i would say, go 4 it.
Decided to use Erlan service, and i can confirm Dnizzz his positive reaction.
Works good, works fast!!
I also used Erlan to remove the simlock on my spv m650. I sent my mail around 8 in the evening and expected to receive a mail the next morning. I was very surprised when he replied within 10 minutes.
simlock worked great and payment was easy by internetbanking
nm my post.

Hi chaps,
I'm expecting a Diamond in the coming weeks; I've already got a Hard-SPL done and ready to test along with the SSPL, so once I've verified it works (and frankly, I don't see it failing) I'll release it for general consumption.
Cheers.

Hate to ask the noob question oli but what is the difference between the two i.e. mfg and non-mfg. Does mfg mean yours is based off of the manufacturer's spl??
thanks for enlightening me (if u see fit )
mfg has extra commands in the bootloader. these are not in shipped spl's i dont think. probably in the wiki somewhere. commands do thinks like hard reset, format the nand, and other stuff..

I bought mine from CLOVE.CO.UK on May 30th .
I had it sent to a friend's address in London as I couldn't risk loosing it or getting it stuck at customs here in Istanbul.
So I flew to London just for a day to pick it up from my friend )))
It was the most expensive phone I ever bought

The funny thing I went in the morning and flew back home the same day and the German police at the passport control couldn't understand why I would fly to another country to buy a phone and return home the very same day, he tought I was upto something else

I'm sorry it won't allow me.
But anyway , thinking of buying and ordering the the thing are two different things. You may think of buying TP2 but but decide on a Nokia N97 for example, this could affect the outcome of the Poll When you bought it or ordered it, you could vote here
Seems like so far only 66 of us , I doubt we could make it to 100 owners..
got one about a week back.
got mine for a while now and touchflo 3d beats mobishell on tp2.
Agree with Shingers here, having tried SPb Mobile Shell, I much prefer TF3D. Smooth, intuitive and well, just very pretty! (=
It's the thing that most impresses people when I take out my phone and *ahem* brag a little. I bought mine about two weeks ago. Unlocked, generic ROM, unbranded HTC, roughly 800 dollars.

Got mine 3 weeks ago - ordered in uk! perfect companion so far with some bugs left...
