Hi,
i upgraded my mda pro and the machine is working very fine.
But now i need the cab-files from the extended rom to get the
settings for t-mobile germany. (i forgot to backup these files)
Can someone please upload these files to the xda-ftp-server ?
(if not possible, please sent them as attachment to a message)
I need the files with the settings for the t-mobile network and
if possible all the files needed for localization.
As i have bought the mda pro from t-mobile i have the license
to use these files, so it should be 100% legal to send these
files to my mailbox - it is just that i forgot to backup these files.
Thank you very much,
Superbowl
Thank you, everything works perfect now !

Hi
I've spent the past few days geeking with my MDA, using the wealth of info from this forum.
I tried the JasJar rom (too much [email protected]), and ended up with:
- XDA CE Rom (1.13.48 )
- Radio From O2 Rom (1.04.02)
- Minimal Stuff from XDA/MDA ext roms
Goal was to install with the least [email protected] possible.
Step 1 - Flashing The XDA Exec Roms
First flash with O2 XDA Rom, using the info available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32725
To sumarise the above...
- Get XDA rom from:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Shipped ROM/Xda_Exec_LaunchROM_v113139.exe
- Unpack the above using winrar.
- Plonk MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe in the folder where you unpacked the O2 rom (you can get this file from the ftp site, in the file: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar
You only need the one file!
- Disable activesync
- Put MDA in bootloader mode
- Connect to PC via USB, wait for hardware detection
- Run the file MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from the O2 Rom directory on the PC
- Wait ;-)
- Once it restarts, do the usual CE setup, but do not let the extended rom install (simply soft reset at the prompt). If you have gotten past this stage, just hard reset again, and do the soft reset at the correct point!
Step 2 - Installing Progs From Extended Rom
- You'll now have an MDA with the XDA CE and Radio roms installed. It will need the appropriate patches installing from the XDA and MDA extended roms.
- To start, DL both extended roms:
XDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/O2_XDA_Exec_Extended_ROM.zip
MDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/mda_pro_eng_uk_extrom.zip
- For info on what each of these roms contain, look at the following threads:
MDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32839
XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32527
- You dont need all that ****e, I installed the following:
XDA:
Signed_SSD_BTUR_Patch_For_BT_Cannot_Initial.sa.CAB (bluetooth patch)
MDA:
CAB-Customization-TMUK-Universal-01-03-04Aug05.CAB (Adds MMS Server Settings)
CAB-Shorcut-TMOENU-08Aug05.CAB (Adds MMS to outlook + installs some shortcuts which you can remove later)
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB (Enables Video Calling)
Signed_UNI_TMO_Connection_112100.CAB (Adds 'T-Mobile Internet' and 'T-Mobile Internet CS' for GPRS/3G connection)
Stage 3 - Cleanup
- The CAB CAB-Shorcut-TMOENU-08Aug05.CAB also installs a links. If you dont install the cab TMO_UK_UI_0727_signed.CAB then these will be dead llinks. The 'clearvue pdf' reader is a part of this cab (but if you install it, you'll get all the other sh1te it contains also. I was not interested in the PDF reader, so I just trashed the dead links.
- There are two dead links in Programs (they'll be obvous by their icons. I seem to remember them being 'clearvue PDF' and 'EmailWiz' In Explorer, browse to /windows/start menu/programs and trash them.
- Several shortcuts are installed in /windows/startup. Trash the elatepushservice (I dont know what this does, but I dont appear to be missing anything!), sddeamon (this causes the prompt 'view pics on card' when you insert a card containing jpgs from digicam etc). DONT trash 'poutlook' as otherwise the MMS folders wont appear in pocket outlook.
- Install Pocket Mechanic, and use it to ditch bad registy keys and cleanup the notification que.
- Could also install the ext rom unlocker & Total Commander so that you can shove only the cabs you want into the ext rom (or use the space for somet more useful) See Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33638 (Cheers Buzz!)
Registry Hacks
Goto: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Registry and pick some registry hacks to install. I did 'keys on today screen', 'disable start menu animation', 'change pocket ie', 'change fonts', 'change glyph cache' and 'change web hardware button' - to 'about:blank'
Goto:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33515 and make the suggested changes to the cache settings. I found that this did speed stuff up, but since its only cache settings, it will only speed up stuff the second time you try and do it!
Soft Reset
Install Your Progs
I installed
In Internal Mem
Resco Explorer (+regedit +ftp) to replace the MS sh1te
Resco Pic Viewer (to replace the MS App)
Pocket Informant (case the built in stuff is useless)
Resco Audio Recorder
Resco Pocket Radio
TCMP Media player
Net Remote (to control my HTPC)
SPB GPRS Monitor (from MDA CDROM)
Zimmermann Pocket Hosts (essential for VPN use)
Small menu (so I can ruddy well close open apps!)
IPConfig
Pocket Putty (SSH)
On CF Card
Total Commander (to get to the ext rom)
WiFiFoFum (for free email on the move ;-)
Pocket Mechanic
Concluding
Machine is now both fast, stable and not full of bloat-ware. Have 22MB free storage, and 27MB free program memory.
Main Issue left is the time that machine takes to respond to an incomming call when its switched off. On the original MDA rom, I had 4 rings before machine actually rang. Now I have about 2.5.
Time for sleep! I'll read through this tomorrow and correct any errors...
Nigel
One essential point.
According to the publisher, Pocket Mechanic should not be installed to the SD-card, especially if you intend using any of Pocket Mechanic's functions against the SD-card - could lead to corruption.
Personally, I've installed (and run) many of the applications you've listed as "Internal mem" direct to the SD-card without experiencing any problems.
Great bit of collating, does anyone know if the same can be performed on a M5000? Orange have a habit of needing things on there phone to work correctly. Also does anyone know what the following do on the M5000 ExtRom:
CAB-Customization-OrangeUK-Universal-01-05-15Aug05.CAB
CAB-Shortcut-Orange-19Aug05.CAB
cusTSK.exe
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB
Signed_DiscoButton8.sa.CAB
Signed_Orange_SuspendResume.sa.CAB
Signed_Orange_UAString.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_Conn.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_Customize.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_HomeScreenReg.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_SoundSetting_USSDAlarm.CAB
Signed_ORUK_Version.sa.CAB
Signed_pIE_Fav.sa.CAB
Signed_SSD_BTUR_Patch_For_BT_Cannot_Initial.sa.CAB
Signed_SSD_Shortcut_WWE.sa.CAB
Signed_SSD_WLanMgr_Orange_Icon_WWE.sa.CAB
Signed_UNI_pIE_View_Set.sa.CAB
UI_Orange_UK_0727.cab
UNI_BrowserPerformance.sa.CAB
UNI_Orange_2G3G_icon.sa.CAB
Would be a great help if someone did or could find out as I could then cherry pick what to install. I can take a guess at a few of them but I would like to be sure
Thanks
Hi
Aye, I have noticed oddities with pocket mechanic on SD card, but only when doing SD card benchmark, defrag etc.
I installed to internal mem cause its faster than SD card rather than any other reason, but I found issues with some resco apps running on the SD card also - specifically resco upgrade failed (could not install downloaded upgrade)

I can understand Pocket Mechanic objecting when you defrag/benchmark the medium it itself is running from.
Haven't had any problems with Resco, but haven't tried the update facility.

Nigel

is it feasible?can thr be any incompatibility?
where can I find JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar ?
Hi,
I am gathering the files to perform the upgrade as detailed in this thread, however I can't seem to find JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar.
Is there a better one to use now ? or should I keep searching for JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar ?
In fact most of the links have moved ...
Thanks

Can you dump your extended rom and post on the ftp site?
I've tried installing the french version, but the UI won't install. Most odd...
I can't find the ROMS
I keep getting :
File not found
You tried to access the address ftp://[email protected]/Universal/Extended ROMs/, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.
Can any one point me in the right direction ?
I have a T Mobile (UK) MDA PRO, the wifi connection lasts for about 3 seconds, then it keeps trying, but failing.
These are the ROMs I'm after :
XDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/O2_XDA_Exec_Extended_ROM.zip
MDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/mda_pro_eng_uk_extrom.zip
Thanks
Hi
Looks like someone has trashed the FTP site (again) all those roms have dissapeared. Hopefully they'll get restored... Did a backup exist??!
I'll search my laptop see if I have any of the missing roms
Nigel
Yup the FTP's missing practically every file...
I need the NO ID upgrade launcher file to flash my MDA Pro to XDA Exec please.
If anyone can upload it or send it me accross msn it'd be much appreciated
take a look at the last post :

hi,
i have noticed that O2 has "mobile solutuions o2 active ui" installed in it by default, i love this user interface and would like to install it on my PDA2K runnig latest WM5 with patches... i tried copying the directory file from an o2 device onto my pda2k but it didnt work...
so is this UI available anywhere to download and will it run on the i-mate pda2k??
regards
try this, it is from the o2 1.40 rom. i installed this on the t-mobile 1.40 rom and works perfectly, you could try it, if it dont work, then just uninstall it
if it does work, id like to know if it does, cos i might go back to WM5.0
if you go to the xda dev ftp site.
ftp://xda-developers.com
follow the following path
ftp://xda-developers.com/Uploads/Blueangel/O2_UK_XDAIIs_WWE_14000_237_11200_SHIP[Extended_ROM]/
in that folder, you will find the file named, Install.arm.cab
this is the cab file to install o2 active.
to access the ftp you need to log on with xda as both user name and password.
hey jo,
its nice to c someone willing to help, cheers...
unfortunatly, where i am currently, i cant access ftp, and this is the only place i have internet access around here (am not home... business trip), so its either untill Feb that i will be able to access it or someone can upload it on http...
regards
Searched Hi and Lo through search,, but can't find an actual One Note cab/Patch to the Office put on the Official wm6 Dopod Rom,, Any suggestions would be welcome. Would like to overlay a MS OFfice Cab that includes the One note, but not sure how it will integrate with current Rom. Thanks,, Stoker
Onenote installs when you launch Onenote on XP
Just so you know Onenote automaticly installs on ur device once connected and you launch Onenote on your desktop. So even if no roms include it, it doesnt really matter because to really appreceate Onenote you got to be running it on your desktop. If you really need it though here it is, but I recommend you wait for the desktop t install it so its properly embedded with the Office 2007
Thanks JackieBoy,,really appreciate your answer
Thank you for your great advice.

Where can I get the cab file for power point and word and excel for wm6. The rom I have does not have it and I like this rom and don't want to change so I need just the cab files to add it to this rom
Hello,
today I updated my telephone and during my reinstall I downloaded a new Office Mobile 6.1 (PPC Edition with One Note Mobile included) to install it. The CAB works wonderfully but I am not able to choose the installation directory, it only starts to install on main memory without asking. My old version (Smartphone Version of Office 6.1 without One Note Mobile) always ask where to install the program.
That is why I want to know how I can change the installation directory of the new Office. (I Want to install it on SD Card)
It is normal that PPC programs do not ask where to install?
P.S I am using HTC StrTrk with the WM 6.1 Pro by Erofich
No one can help me?
