T-mobile MDA pro ROM flashed with Imate. Pls help - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi i bought this new phone T-Mobile MDA PRO and for some reason the Imate Jas jar software shows, the guy whom i bought this phone said that the phone was unlocked and the rom flashed with Imate Jas jar.. here is my rom version :
ROm version : 1.12.38.wwe
rom date : 08/24/05
Radio version : 1.03.00
Protocol version : 42.36 p8
extrom version : 1.12.120 wwe
Now my question is should i install a T-mobile rom update or should i Update the rom with the Imate jasjar ??
Where can i find the latest Imate Jas jar version pls help

Well I would suggest that the first thing you do is ask yourself, why you are upgrading. What is broken now, or doesn't work as you would like. Then which ROM will fix this problem.
Basically I'm saying if it's working OK now for you, don't upgrade. If you bought it as a toy, or something to learn on then it doesn't matter. You can upgrade to what ever you think you might like. If on the other hand it is a tool then don't "fix" it if it's working OK for you now.

The problem what i see is when i play music files .. the music starts plays for 4-5 seconds and then stops for 2 seconds and then plays nonstop. it happens with all the music files and ringertones as well..
and i would also like to know if the ROM update would make my device a better one ? just assuming whats ur say.
I would want my Reception on fido to improve

You may use any ROM Updgrade, you may even want to cook your own ROM, but please do not think of performing a radio stack upgrade if your present radio is working well and giving you a trouble free service.
Hi guys,
I 'm in same situation but with higher versions, and can hardly wait to get a new 2003 ROM.
I can't just play with my XDA as I use it all the time for work and it's pretty stable so far. I just also can't tell that the ROM is 'totally' separate from the RUU in WM2003.
So the question is: is there any one here who has gone through a 2003 upgrade for Qtek 1010 to tell us his thoughts after the upgrade ?
I read a lot about the stability of 4.00.16 ENG, but all been written was for O2 R4.21 or T-Mobile R6.xx. Did any one in this region (Mid East) with R 3.2x went into this upgrade ? and what is the current status ?
Thanx all ....
Latest ...
I tried upgrading to 4.00.11 ENG from the kitchen ... no matter how many trys it just restarts and gives the same error message "Can't open USB/com port ..." ...
Do I miss anything ??
more update ...
Tried to cook the new ROM as .nb1 file and used Xdatools from the kitchen to flash my device .... same result :? :evil:
Is it possible that there is a ROM protection on my XDA ??? :shock:

Hi Biso007,
Look at the IDIOTS GUIDE at:
http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3171
and follow the instructions thoroughly one by one and you can't go wrong, it did work for me, I was in the same situation.
Samohile - Thanks. It is good advice to not mess with the radio if you can help it.
My only problem is that my device periodically shuts off. Then pressing the power button soft boots it. I cant tell for sure but it seems that this happens after an incoming or missed call. It seems that other friends using ROM 3.18.04 and Radio 3.25.01 (like our friend biso007 here) seem to have very stable systems.
I can try upgrading the ROM only and see what happens but the information at www.carrierdevices.com seems to imply that both ought to be upgraded at the same time. I notice it is an Australian site. Does that matter? Also, the version of the radio upgrade is a bit confusing, at least from its name. (Radio Upgrade File : RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG).exe] ). I wonder what this RSUv1.15 translates into since the name of the exe file for the ROM is nicely descriptive of the version (3.18.04).
Any advice in this would be very welcome..
Well i am using WM2003 4.00.11 and its working fine for me no problem i cooked in the kitchen you just need to read arround this great forum for a whgile on topics such as upgrades and ROM to know exactly what you are dealing with and then you will able to upgrade smoothly.
:wink:
Hi ARZLEB
I read lots and lots about upgrade lessons but none of them worked for me .... I got an advice to use SD card with bootloader as it's the only working way. Now I wonder why the EXE method was created!!
I see that u got the 4.00.11 working. Did u upgrade it using EXE or SD card. Any help would be so appreciated ... thnx
Well i used the EXE methode the file i cooked in the Kitchen but i didnt change the version i left as 3 at the bottom of the page it works fine i upgraded from 3.XX to 4.XX then i downgraded from 4.00.11 to 4.00.05 then upgraded again all using EXE format so far working great.
i will be honest with you i know about the SD methode very well but never tried it so u have to make more search on this issue.
If you need anything more plz message me anytime and i will be more then whilling to help you step by step...

Faisal sorry for very late reply.
I have flashed my Qtek (bought in Abu Dhabi) with several versions of roms cooked in kitchens (Jeff's and Stefans's), but I have finally settled with ATT release wm2003 Siemens SX56 upgrade. It comes with most of the bugs fixed (except multiple reset bug) and is quite stable. I almost never have to reset it. You can flash the ROM only by SD card method though. You can try it. It's always a good idea to flash using SD card method. USB method using ProgramA is not very safe. I guess the network in Pakistan is compatible with the one in the UAE, so you can safely use it, if you don't mess up with the Radio Stack. My Radio is 3.23.01 and I have no problems with that.

Help a Noob
Hi,
I recently aquired a Qtek 2020i, and this is my first time in the PDA world, but it hangs all the time. So I'm hopping you guys can help me to update the ROM to something more stable.
I've been around the forum and found out how to backup my ROM to a SD card, so that is what i'm going to do first... to be safe.
Now I've downloaded this ROM version. And, by the read me file included in the rar file, it will be very simple to run the update... Actually I thought it would be very much harder
The question is:
Must I thake any special security steps other than the original ROM backup? Or can I just go for the update?
Thanks for any help you can get me
Done
Update successfull
I'm gone evaluate this ROM... Hope it's better than original

thanx in advance
regards majnnuu
no one to help me??????????????
Here ya go....
1) Correct. You can't upgrade your 2i to WM5.
2) I would recommend downloading one of pug's ROMs. You can find them here: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Alpine/O2_Roms_Camera_Fixed_Bug/
If you hate the o2 active stuff, then download the one marked "o2stripped" (I would recommend this one). If you like the o2 active stuff, then download the other.
3) The latest Radio ROM available for the 2i is version 1.04. If you upgrade your ROM using one of pug's rom, then your radio will automatically be updated to version 1.04.
Justin
BTW, I think your device is an Alpine, not an Andes.
Got a problem I'm hoping someone can help me with.
I was updating my rom and it all went wrong. When I turn my xda2i on now I get the normal setup then its goes to a black screen with serial written on it (or usb if it is in the cradle), and apart from that it does nothing.
My laptop no longer recorgnises the device so I can't restore the old rom or restart the process????
Can anyone help please?
tez,
You're in what is called "Bootloader". You're OK. You can do one of two things:
1) Simply re-attempt to "reflash your ROM" with one of the ROMs you downloaded.
2) Reflash your ROM with a ROM update provided your manufacturer. I couldn't get my device to update with one of pug's rom (it go stuck around 18%) so I had to reflash my Alpine with an original ROM released from a manufacturer.
Hope this helps.

Upgrading the rom of SPV m5000

Hey guys...
I recently got an Orange SPV m5000. Except for the way it looks, it's a great PDA considering i've been using my old Wallaby PW10A1 ...
But the problem is, it has some speed/memory issues! Whenever i open the Programs, or want to make a call, it seems to be stucked for a second or two. I've been wondering, if this is due to the ROM it has.
About the pda, when i got this, it had SIMLock and the default rom in it.
I've removed SIMLock; thanks to buzz, and upgraded the rom the the newest version from Orange website. But still, the problem is the same..
So, i was wondering, if i wanted this to upgrade to WM6, would it be slower?
If yes, would installing another WM5 ROM solve my problem?
If not, which ROM should i be using?
I'ld be pleased if someone spares time to explain me things. It's confusing, there're so many things that i get lost and forgot all i knew whilst checking the topics!
Currently the phone has:
Operator version: 7.130.1.174
ROM version: 1.30.90 WWE
ROM date: 02/24/06
Radio version: 0.00.00
Protocol version: 42.37.P8
ExtROM version: 1.30.174 WWE
(Notes: I live in Turkey, and my operator doesn't have video calling function running here, yet. So i can do without it too. I also did an extended rom unlocking and backed-up the orange installation files (1.85mb) from the storage just in case something bad happens and i have to install that again)
Update:
Since i was imnpatient; like anyone with a new device, I've currently installed L26_WM6_PRO_Business_V7_Videocall without problems. The radio version is updated at the process but there seems no problems with SIMLock, yay!
The OS seems better and faster for now, i'll update here just incase something goes wrong.
Update 2:
Unfortunately SmartDial is not implemented and the default phone skin (t-mobile) doesn't support landscape mode. It does support, but the dialpad is hidden by default, that confused my mind. But then again, smartdial still is absent from the dialpad section and the skin sucks and it's harder to call
It looks fantastic when compared to WM5, and some new settings along with auto-installed programs came. And i liked them!...
Now, looking for a proper smartdial...

Help with DeviceData file

Hi guys,
I have upgraded succesfully my QTek 9090 BA to WM6 following the wiki, have some issues with WiFi and would like to upgrade my ROM...I guess...I'm new on this PDA world so still confused with terms.
I'm following the Wiki and got stuck here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...0.ROMx20.thatx20.willx20.workx20.forx20.mex3f.
My Device ID returns only:
P H 2 0 B W W E AT%CID? 5 . 6 0 . 0 0 1.12.00 % 4
So for what I understand:
MOdel PH20B
Lang: WWE (English)
Operator: AT%CID?
Rom Version: 5.60.00
Extended Rom version: 1.12.00
Radio Version: 4
Is this correct?
If so, I don't understand if this: BA_WWE_BP_12200_169_10602_SHIP.exe would be good for me...
Can you please help?
Thanks!
The Devicedata file was need in the old days (WM2003).
Now on WM6 (and WM5) the file does not matter or make much sence.
BA_WWE_BP_12200_169_10602_SHIP.exe
This is a 2003 rom with the rom vesion of 1.22 (making it old even for WM2003 as 1.4 was the last I can remember), the Radio is 1.602 (which is even older than your 1.12 (1.15 is the current one))
Best bet for you is the WM6 rom and up your radio to 1.15 (wiki will tell you how).
Hope that helps
Hi! and really thanks! It confuses me how 1.6 can be older than 1.15...?? Anyway, I updated to Radio rom 1.15, however reading more I found that it has nothing to do with WiFi...
Now, I seems to be understanding more and more about the Roms, extendend roms and radio roms with TypeI and II.
I have been looking at the FTP site and what I still need to understand is what Rom to use...how do you difference those codes? I'm using rar 20226...is this ok? Any newer ROM or more stable?
And what defines the WiFi driver? The ROM itself? I have the problem that my WiFi signal is very poor...
Thanks again
There are a few thiings that are wrong with the BA as it is end of life and if it was not for XDA-Devlopers it would be dead.
Wifi has its issues there is a work around and that has something to do with the way you start it. (to be honest I can't remember what you have to do but search will help)
Bluetooth is the other know issue, if you don't want to make friends then the best way to do this is post a "My Bluetooth does not work thread". That a low post count will get you flammed at big time.
The Type I and type II roms were based on the format of the roms and the tools we used about 3 years ago. Some smart guy worked out you could bypass this whole porcess (the checking of the country code) by using a flash program form some other HTC device.
So by the time WM5 came out then the "on id exe" solved that issue and we have been using it ever since.
The radio you talking about is 1.06, if you want to look at some of the roms we had found and posted on the FTP (unitll M$ got us to close it) then try this link.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Versions
Extra rom was a carrier based issue (wiki has a whole section on it) however WM5 and WM6 did not use the same system so the space was reused for the rom (is one of the steps in the upgrade process).
As for the best rom, this is up to you.
Xplode used be active and now its Sun_dream.
Both of these guys know there stuff and have my Full respect.
Have fun
