Conver MDA Compact II with WM 5.0 from German to English - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

I just bought a new MDA Compact II and it has WM 5.0 loaded. I noticed another post that said they didn't knw that the device supported WM5, but it does (maybe only the II version does). Anyway, I am a native English speaker and I would like to convert my device to English (right now it is in German, came that way from T-D1). Does anyone know if anyone has done this sucessfully on this version of the MDA yet? If so where can I get the SW and tutorial?
Thanks!
Randy

heres the rom, you'll also need to run Wizard_RomUpgradeUtility_noID first so your able to install other langauges. A search for that on here should bring up the file

Thanks Dave, just to verify....that is the English MW5.0 for the MDA Compact II, right?
Thanks for your assistance!

I need this ROM very mutch! I asked for it long time ago!
But this link doesn't work, downloading not starting and I can't enter to this FTP-server.
Can you help me, what is a problem?
Oh, now i understand my problem it was a firewall :roll:
I allready download this ROM and utilites for flashing. Thanks!
It is a standart ROM for MDA Compact II? Can I star the process without risks?!

i didnt upload it but its under the charmer folder so i'd imagine its the right one. The original file is called
RUU_Charmer_1120223_11202110_11220_T-MobileUK_Ship.exe
is that whats in the zip file?

here is what was in the zip file
EnterBootloader.exe
nk.nbf
Readme.doc
ROMUpdateUtility.exe
ROMUpdateUtility_wizard_noID.exe
RUUGetInfo.exe
RUUResourcee.dll.
How can I tell if it is WM5.0?
Thanks again!
Randy

certainly looks like a rom package. the nk.nbf file - properties of mine are
Size 70.5 MB (73,927,680 bytes)
Size on Disk 70.5 MB (73,928,704 bytes)
Modified 26 November 2005, 13:06:52
also look through that readme, should show shots of the phone with tmobile on the corner

WM 2003 OS on XDA1

Hi
Is it possible to get WM 2003 on the XDA 1. ie upgrade the 2002 version supplied with the XDA1
If so is there a step by step guide to the process.
Thanks in advance for any help
Cheers
Ric
I read this message on this forum and would like some help please
"T-mobile WM 2003 for MDA I will be available 29.Dec.03 ???"
Yes it is possible to upgrade your XDA I. I put the T-Mobile Backup-Rom provided here on my XDA I and it works perfectly. How to do it, is explained there as well. But be aware that the ROM provided there is a German one. I don't know how to change it into an English one.
C U @ Mallorca
The ENG version is here ftp://tmobile:[email protected]:21 .. but be careful as it contains the upgrade for both RSU and ROM.

How can i upgrade my O2 XDA I to WM2003?
thanks in advance

your device is 900/1800mhz = the A model
the upgrade you trying to put on it is the american version hence tmobile.... which is 900/1900 the B version
gaz
EURO Upgrade
Where can i found an european wm2003 upgrade (in english, not in german)?
marco
the versions of wm2003 you can only use are:
v4.00.01, v4.00.05 & v4.00.11 no other versions of wm2003 as of yet the others are american versions.
www.yorch.net
Gaz, ur right but the A,B difference is significant only for RSU upgrades. That's why it's performed with TMO 4.01.00 file as it contains both RSU and ROM upgrades. But if you use Winzip to extract the ROM files only, I don't think it will show this error.
However, I 'm still waiting to see a kitchen option based on 4.01.00, but seems the focus now is on XDA II stuff
Is there any chance you could send me the 4.01.00 file, can't find it anywhere. Ronnie
just check 6 posts higher in this thread :wink:
Your a GOD, thanx :wink:
Hello Biso;
I downloaded the file, right clicked on it and used the winzip options to unzip it to a folder where I found a file named upgrade and a folder named English. I found the folder to contain the rsu, so I did not try to use it as you recommended, and I double clicked on the upgrade.exe file. Unfrotunately the same error message of device a and b came in and I could not continue.
What I am doing wrong.??

Nothing wrong, All upgrades made by operators will do such check and since your device seems to be PW10A then you will always get this error if you use the EXE method.
In the \English directory, you will find a file named NK.nbf which should have a size of 32 MB. After extracting this file, you have 2 options:
1. If you have SD card and reader/writer, put it on the SD card and flash your XDA through the bootloader.
OR
2. Use the XDAtools from this site and make the source is the NK file and the destination is the XDA flash ROM.

Thank you very much Biso, you were of great help. I just flashed the rom and I know I will enjoy it. by the way I changed my device to qtek 1010, to have an extra 32 of ram.
BTW do you know a cool site from which I can change the skin of the phone. I just did not like the TM logo

WHich Radio Stack version is incorporated?
Still 4.21 or is it a higher one? how can I distinguish this from the RSU upgrade file?
Rstack 3.23
I did:
From there go to your Start folder inside the Windows folder. From there find the link to the RSUpgrade file and delete it. (Don't worry about deleting a file, this is just a link to it and we will re-install a good copy of this file)
Now, restart your PDA. It should return to your normal desktop but with no phone connection as the Radio Stack is not installed. From here, place it back on it's cradle/usb connection.
Just as stated above by Matt, you need a copy of the RSUpgade installation or a ROM upgrade insallation that includes the RSUpgrade. Unpack this, I used Winzip to do this. Find these files:
monitor_ul_bs.m0
monitor_ul_bs.map
RSUpgrade.cp64
RSUPgrade.exe
Now, using Activesync, explore to your Windows folder on your XDA and copy those files from your Computer to there. They must over write all the old files.
Disconnect from your PC and run the RSUPgrade.exe file from file manager. It worked 10 for 10 when I did it this way so it should work for you also.
and ended up with radio stack 3.23.11 Protokoll 32S54
NO idea what it means for me going back from 4.21?

The traditional Chinese ROM is no longer found in the above servers. Some selfish people must have deleted it after they got the ROM, and perhaps, they use it for their own business and ask money !!!
Can someone repost the ROM and stop these selfish people?

The upgrade method is exactly same as t-mobile MDA compact german to english. But remember to replace the first 416 bytes of dopod-1.03_CHT.bin from your original rom by Hex editor. :lol:

The file size of the traditional rom is only 119M. I followed exact procedures mentioned but still get the same error. I wonder if the Chinese Rom is the corect/full version...

Qtek S200 (Prophet) roms

Hello All,
I'm a newbie in this forum so forgive me if I'm asking something that has been already asked (I've looked but couldn't find it). Does anyone know where I can find the official Qtek S200 roms, I'm hesitating a little bit to upload a non qtek rom just in case something goes wrong. I wouldn't want to end up with a € 600 phone that doesn't work.
Thanks
If you want the WWE version, I think this is the one:

Don't afraid of non-Qtek ROM Qtek is very lazy in update release. I got Dopod 2.15.13 on my born S200. Thу latest Qtek available is as old as 2.9.7.
The ONLY difference between the devices from differend brands is the logo on the panel. Sure.
thanks, I will give it a try

Sorry in advance for the question
Just as a newbie.. I got Qtek S200 in German (bought in Switzerland) and want WWE version. I guess this thread shows the right steps. Am i right ? the procedure shown here (with the ZIP file) is good for language change ? Does the S200 will change ALL menus on Win Mobile to English ?
Thanks a lot for your answer !
PD> I saw the commercial JFAWM USB card that claims to be a simple way to do it too. What do you think ? is better for a newbie to buy it to avoid problems ? Thanka again.
Is there a newer ROM from Qtek in WWE or GER?
Upgrade tool says that i need a newer ROM for upgrade - now my XDA Neo is in Bootloader Mode

I think the Qtek WWE ROM in ftp is the latest from Qtek & if after downloading it can be unzip, then it is not corrupt.
Can anyone enlighten newbie here what's IPL and SPL ?

The file in the ftp is in fact an .exe zip file (a self-exploding/executing zip file) where you can unzip it either with winzip or winrar. Try opening it with either one of them.

Cross-vendor simple update to the latest ROM posted on FTP

Hi All!
To simplify the update to the latest Dopod ROM for non-Dopod devices, I have posted the ROM as the unpackaged fileset with update utility replaced to one not checking vendor ID.
How to use:
1. Download the ZIP here
2. Extract all the files in one folder
3. Go to the folder and run ROMUpdateUtility.exe
4. Follow the screens as usual
5. Restart and enjoy
Used to update my Qtek S200 to Dopod ROM. Should work for any other vendor, including Dopod itself as well
Disclaimer: It is just repackaged files got from this site with no addition from me. Use it at your own risk. I have no ability to support you.
Update: URL fixed...
Please, be advised!
While updating the ROM, will be several stops, I had ones at 80%, 95% and 100%, may be other points exists. During the stops, progress bar on the PDA becomes red, the both progress bars on the PDA and the PC does not moves. No dialog or warning appears.
Be patient and don't touch anything! It is not a problem! The full update may take up to TEN minutes! Once again, be patient! Just wait!
is this ROM chinise?
Re: Cross-vendor simple update to the latest ROM posted on F
File name is RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.zip
so I asssume that it is the World Wide English version.
The ROM is World Wide English. The interface is English, but works well with cyrilic data and has a lot of locales inside. Possible, you will need some extra software for non-latin screen keyboard.
J. - I'm glad you mentioned the "stops" during the update process - otherwise I would have been worried. Anyway it works. Thanks for posting the file.
The localisation for phone operators all are foreign to me (I guess Chinese?), but otherwise it works fine on my JAMin with my Orange UK localisation settings added.
all thansk you now download for test again can back

Incredible! What the device and the ROM version you trying to update?
I have tested it just for my Qtek S200, sorry, I have no a basket, full of different branded Prophets
First of all, ensure that you are downloaded ZIP archive, NOT exe file. Exe file is just original Dopod's update which works only for Dopod devices.
However, it is possible, that not all Vendor ID checks cleared from the utility. I don't know who is made the patched utility, but great respect to him once again!
So as I understand, no CID unlocking etc. here? If I manage to install a Dopod ROM on my German XDA Neo, I will be able to flash with a German ROM later without those bloody O2 tech support guys to notice anything?

Hi, is there any chance you could share your german prophet rom? Thank you!

So does this tool mess up some system things or just bypasses the checks in a clean way?
I have a problem with a s200 flashed with the file in this tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44022&highlight=customruu

Oh, finally Engligh language on my PDA. God bless the guy that made this!

Upgraded using this technique and it worked.
However I lost my Voice Dialer and MMS.
Any idea how to get these back please?
