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??

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?
Help. Thanks.

You just need to use the no device id update exe and it will work fine.

Please help if you can , there are probably post on this but cant find any .i have an MDA PRO (HTC UNIVERSAL) with windows mobile 5 and want to upgrade to windows mobile 6, does anybody have a link to download this with instructions as i have seen a few post with people having issuses. The network is T-Mobile,
i dont know if this is possible ,i have blackmajik which is for the htc hermes, will this work on an mda pro?
Many thanks
Hi digigem,
You can try the link below. The ROM was "cooked" by member Laurentius26 and the link contains his latest version. I'm using one of his earlier versions and I find it really good.
Enjoy!
BTW, as far as I know ROMs are device specific. It is possible to adapt a ROM to work on a different device but its not easy.

Hi,
I'm reading this forum for a while and finally decided to register and ask a few questions. I read a lot already but cant connect it all together...
all regards to Artemis flash.
I want to flash UK T-Mobile MDA compact III with newest available unbranded soft, want to unlock it to use it with other networks and hopefully get win mobile 6.1 or at least other language.
Would someone be so kind and guide me to some tutorials or instructions or at least point me in the right direction of what to look for, what software to use, etc. i would be most grateful.
I'm not looking for anyone who will do it for me, i want to learn how to do it so when my MDA compact IV finally arrives in next few months I will be able to un-brand it and hopefully unlock.
Many thanks in advance

Hi folks!
Sorry - I am a complete novice to ROM upgrades etc...
I have an MDA Touch Plus Mobile with T-Mobile, running Windows Mobile 6.0.
I want to upgrade to WM 6.1 or 6.5, however the HTC website suggest that my phone (via S/N number) is not valid for the 6.1 upgrade...
T-Mobile support is worse than pathetic and offer no advice at all...
Can anyone suggest if it's possible to get the upgrade for my phone and how I would go about it...?
( Remember I'm a novice to Rom upgrades!)
P.S.
Many thanks and aplogies to those guru's out there who have gone through this issue a million times with folk like me...
- As a Db Progress developer I can relate - Give me a Progress DB and I'm happy, give me a car with a broken Altenator and I pass....
Cheers

First install the Hard SPL boot loader, after that install a custom rom with wether wm6.1 or wm6.5.
Take a deep look http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=404 here.
Everything you need can be found THERE.
Check out the HardSPL thread and then start reading about custom roms.
If you have any questions : read again. If you still have any questions : read again...

Hello I am searching for a Stock Rom (GSM) for my TP2(MDA VARIO V - T Mobile German version) with windows mobile 6.1. All links i found in this Forum or with google search are too old.
I hope someone has this Rom and can upload it. I am looking to T-Mobile 1.14.111.2 Stock ROM.
There are places where i search, and unfortunately didnt found:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=558838 (there i can't post as a new user, so i making this thread),
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Rhodium/Shipped_Roms there is N/A in download place.
I know that it hard to found this after 4-5 years, but maybe you had this file on yours computer. Unfortunately i can't use Hardspl to unlock my phone, and this is my main problem.
Thanks, rudzik12.
[edit]
I find way to unlock HARD-SPL, so i dont need this rom anymore.
Regards!
