I put the cab on my MDA Compact and installed it.
Using File Explorer I can see a folder in Program Files and an Icon in the Programs window.
This has the four Icons, Hide, Lock, Unhide and Unlock!
My extended-rom folder is visable in File Explorer so I tokk it that I didn't have to 'Unhide' it.
So pressed the unlock icon and got a window with debug and ok in the title and Error: I click ok.
1.When I get back to my desktop I have another debug, etc window with following FL_IOCTL_BDTL_HW_PROTECTION. I click ok.
2.The next debug window says The Parameter is incorrect. I click ok again.
3. The next says extrom unlocked. I click ok.
I am taken back to '1' and go through 2 and 3 again. The windows go away.
I soft reset the MDA, by using the stylus underneath it.
I go back to file explorer and into the extended_rom folder and try deleting the TMO_Wallpaper and am told access is denied!
Not sure what else to try, but guess the unlock didn't work or I have missed something. Please be kind, if you reply.
Re: I can't get this to work either, have I missed something

Hi,
I am not sure if it works for you to,
I have had the same problem, FL_IOCTL_BDTL_HW_PROTECTION on my screen. Device didnt unlock either.
Tried to do it in any possible way,
even on the fora over here.
But the one wich i skipped, or didn't found was the correct one for me,
Personal i Think my Windows Screwed the files up, but thats F%CK*#G WINLOOS.
So i went to the ftp part of this site, and just downloaded the unlock tool again,
Just did an hardboot of the device, installed the fresh download i obtained.
First unhided it, than reset, followed by unlock, and guess what it said?!?
Rom was unlocked.
So not an single error in my case, hopes it will work for u to.
It is not always your mda who fails, your pc can do this much better.

How do I get to the FTP site, please?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_FTP_Site
Ok I think i have got to the ftp site, I say I think because when I clicked on the link it took me stright there, it didn't ask me for a username or password :?:
Anyway I searched all what I thought were the relevant folders and some that weren't and couldn't find the file
Can anyone help?
your device is called magician as codename
try looking in the sub dirs under there
I don't want to appear rude, but I have searched all the folders, etc!
I tried to install the FM radio cab onto my phone, but when I go to run the setu up, I get an error message saying "there is no application associated with (this file), run the application first, then open the file from within the application.
What should I do?
Thanks!!
What kind of file is it? .cab or .exe? If it's a .exe then run it from you're computer. Make sure you got active sync working
thanks for respoinding
It's a cab file.

.cab files need to be moved to the phone (best to make a folder on the SD card just for that), and run from there.
hi
I tried that, but when I try to run the file on the phone, I get that message. It won't work! If it helps, I'm trying to use one linked to on the thread titled "htc does have an fm radio". I'd really like to get this working!
Thanks!
hmmm
Now when I click on the setup file, it tries to open the Opera browser, but all I get is a blank page and nothing happens!

Do other .cab files behave this way when you try to run them on your phone? It sounds like the one you downloaded might be corrupted..? Your phone should run it directly with no problem as long as the file extension is still ".cab"
I would try a soft-reset, and then try the copy I have attached here instead of the one you first grabbed (it's the same file, but I know this copy works ok). You'll just have to unzip it and then move the cab to your phone.
hey
THANK YOU! The file you linked worked perfectly! Thank you again.... I really appreciate it. So gratifying to finally have it work. I still miss my MDA and Wing for many reasons, but I'm feeling a little better about the TP2...

I had a wizard (which I think was the same phone as the MDA), and nothing will take the special place it will always have in my heart. However, the TP2 does a damn good job of carrying that torch
yep
The Wizard is the MDA... it was my first touch screen/windows PDA... I'll never forget how excited I was to get it... I miss the nav pad a lot though.... and they removed the IR port (not that I used it) and the camera flash (not that it was very effective)... I don't think new phones should have features removed that their predecessors had... I had to fight Tmo to get a decent price on my TP2 (and I was still raped, and I'd been with them for 10 years) and then the touch screen stopped working completely after a few weeks... Never had that problem with the Wizard (MDA) or Herald (Wing) and I had them for years.... that combined with no nav pad and NO TAB KEY haven't made me fall in love with this device!
I bought a Samsung Saga i770 from eBay since it also works in GSM network. Sure it was locked to US Verizon Wireless. I discovered that there
is a easy to unlock this phone for free using the same way as unlocking Samsung i780 and Omnia i9xx. I believe it may work for Blackjack and other Samsung smartphones with Windows Mobile OS.
Download and copy attached archive into your smartphone and follow the guide. And if you find this guide useful make a little donation since

All you need to is to select Yes when you see a message
"The program is from unknown publisher". It's from Omnia ROM.

Hi Thanks a lot for your response. This program actually doesnt work, it throws up a window and says
The file "Personalize" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstallling or restoring this file.
All three lnk files give the same error.
Thanks again
It's weird since you only need to extract the all files and open link files. Those link files are pointing into "Personalize.exe" near the .lnk files.
Try to copy "Personalize.exe" into Windows directory and lunch the .lnk files again.

I thought I was doing great after uninstalling bloatware. However, when I tried to connect my Note 2 to my PC via USB I received the error that MTP USB Device driver could not be loaded. Apparently I must have uninstalled something on my Note 2 that is not allowing me to connect to the PC via USB. I have been searching for days, read many postings with the same problem, downloading various Driver apps to no avail. I even downloaded and installed Samsung Drivers which also did not work. I still can use my USB plug from NOTE 2 to my Flash Drive to get stuff transfered to/from Note2/PC.
It never ends. Fix one thing and then another pops up. LOL
What else can I say except - H-E-L-P.
What de-bloater tool did you use ?
Does it show the apps it uninstalled ?
By default any de-bloater should only delete apps from /system/app and
/data/app.
Have you considered starting over by flashing root injected stock Rom?

I did not use any de-bloater. I used Titanium Backup Pro (TBP) and have a complete list of all apks uninstalled.
In TBP under Backup/Restore all apks uninstalled are listed. Plus, I kept a list of all that I deleted.
No, I have not considered starting over by flashing root injected stock ROM. Thought about it, however, if I
do flash, I'm back to square one.
If I don't resolve this one problem, I will remain at this point until new OS comes out. I do have a work around for time being.
I do appreciate your help, time and concern. Thank you.
What really amazes me is that this problem is all over the Internet and I can't find a simple solution. I have Googled it,
been on here doing searches, reading postings, etc. I have even tried Driver Booster.

Can you check your phone setting by dialing *#7284#?
Method 3 on the link below.

Tried this and again no success.
Method 3 – Ensure you have the right settings By default my phone was already set to the right settings for USB file transfers so I’ll assume most of these ship with the same configuration, hence why I have this as method 3. I found this on a forum and while it did not work for me, it seems a few other folks declared it a success.
1. Launch the phone key pad on your note and press *#7284# (don’t forget to start with that * symbol!) When you press the last pound sign (#) this will bring up an option that will allow you to change your USB connection settings (modem or PDA) – change it to PDA.
I did not get any option that allowed me to change the USB Connection settings when I entered *#7284#. So I dialed that number and got an error Unable to process request.
Tried new USB cable and it still tried to load/install device drivers but not successful. Same error MTP USB Device Failed.
Thanks again for trying to help. I do appreciate your help and time. Still looking for a resolution.

I am trying to find out if you have all the files and compare with my files to find out why I can access phone utility and you can't. Your issue may be the driver or files idk. Tbh, I am not an expert. Just another android enthusiast trying to help. I have Tweaked Rom so mine may be different. I have found 2 system files in TBU, Service Mode and MTP Application. Do you have them also? Does service mode work for you when you dial, for example, *#0011#?
SUCCESS-Thanks to Y-O-U!!!!

Hi everyone!
I know thousands of tutorials have been already made for the Surface RT/2, they are not often updated, are missing important steps or are not covering common errors occurring while doing this procedure, leaving the user wondering what to do next.
My tutorial will not be on this post, because of the limited layout options of an XDA post/thread.
Here is the tutorial: https://www.alexenferman.com/articles/SurfaceRT/W10-OA-SurfaceRT
This tutorial covers: The installation process, Pictures, Possible errors and solutions, Extras
I also made a video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzFqbBDKeXw
Comments or questions can be posted on this thread or in the comments section at the bottom section of the website.
Enjoy!
I followed this tutorial and I have windows 10 now. Still have question, why web browsing suck that much? It is incredibly slow.
In you tutorial you mention a build update using "install.ps1" I did not found that file in the zip.
Thank you again, great work you have there

Well, in this case, you will have to open each file and click on "install"
I am using store.rg-adguard to download apps. Some of them are asking for Microsoft.vcliba.1100.00 arm. I have found x86 and x64 over internet but not arm. Do you have it? Thank you man.

Hi Alex,
I have read your instructions and most of the commends.
Very interesting and I am eager to give it a try.
One question though,
In the meantime my Surface RT is version 8.1 and even has the start items in a row on the left side, as in windows 10.
Should i go back to version 8.0 to start your Windows 10 upgrade?, or can I start from the present situation.
Your help is much appreciated.
Regards, Hans
Hi Alex,
your tutorial worked great for me. Thank You.
Just one more thing: After starting windows I do get an error like "Windows created a temporary paging file". So I thought maybe pagefile.sys is corrupt. I was no able to clean this. After sfc /scannow it tells me corrupt files are found but no correction was possible.
Maybe you have another idea.
Best Regards Tom
Install Microsoft.NET.Native.Runtime.1.1.appx
Hi Alex,
At the end of your amazing tutorial it says:
Install Microsoft.NET.Native.Runtime.1.1.appx and the other one.
Can you explain how to install these files?
Clicking on them has no effect.

Works wonders, thank you very much!
Only problem I have is this "paging error" whenever I log in, which I couldn't seem to be able to fix even though I tried optimizing the W10 setting a few different ways. Do you have any suggestion?
Thank you again!
EDIT: I set it manually to max size (min 16 MB, max 2047 MB) and the error is gone!
thanks! that worked for me
had to do it twice though with two reboots
anyways solved!

You have to create the pagefile yourself. I forgot to add it in my tutorial. Will add it soon. Meanwhile, search for "how to make pagefile Windows" or something like that.

Hello,
Thanks for the tuto and the video
I went through the instructions but after applying the win 10 image, the boot will lead to automatic repair.
Trying the reset, show only 8.1 in the list of operating systems
Did I mess up in the process ? Should I start over again ?
Thanks
Hi Alex, didn't realize you had a thread for the tutorial here as well. i asked on yt/page about my issue:
I'm stuck at the end. After I installed the Chinese wim 'successfully', I reboot it and the Surface shows blue screen error 0xc000000f and if I press the windows logo button on the tablet I get the 0xc0000428 error. The fix on the website doesn't work, when I go into "Troubleshooting", then select "Reset this PC" then select 8.1rt and there it gives me a msj saying 'insert your windows installation or recovery media to continue" The usb img last used did not work, tried putting the install wim from 8.1 image (SurfaceRT_BMR_30.8.17.0) and get the same message about 'insert your windows. Thanks for the tutorial!
The file in the Google drive folder is named "windows RT surface 1 (RT). wim"
Is that the name that should be entered on dism apply image command? System doesn't recognise install.wim and I don't have that file on my USB
diskpart exit ..then problem
I have followed your directions and ran into a problem. After diskpart> exit (enter)
Yours shows x:\Sources
Mine shows
x:Windows\system32>
Where is my issue? I am on Windows 8.1. Do I need to go back to 8.0?
Appreciate your time
Thank you very much . you gave me a new hope for my Rt1
if you need any test device for any modification just ask.

You need to rename the file to install.wim or any other name you want, then you can type the command with the filename you chose.
Hello,
I am stuck on step 2. After having successfully installed the corrected Windows RT image, I restart my tablet (Surface RT) and I am stuck on the "Region and Language" choice screen. The tablet no longer reacts (no touch screen, no keyboard, etc.).

I think you installed the wrong image. People tend to install the Surface RT image on the Surface 2. In this case, simply install the Surface 2 wim and touch and keyboard will work again.
