TomTom in ROM? - P3300, MDA Compact III upgrading etc.

Hi All,
Is the pre-installed TomTom 6 installed in the P3300 ROM itself or is it on a SD-card when you buy the "telephone" together with the basic TomTom?
Greetings Ben...

it is in the ROM itself.

It is in ROM and Maps are on DVD and can be installed on the SD-card

Hi,
The install program is not in ROM but in EXT_ROM, and once installed the exe file is in \program files.

Yes, to be "more technical"

Sorry to ask a basic question, but is there a 'newbie' type of thread that might briefly explain about Rom and extended rom.

use WM 2003 ROM Image Editor :lol:
Thanks
Phreakazoidz
What is the name of WM 2003 ROM Image Editor called?
If you mean ER2003EDIT. Then, I don't think this software can do the job. ER2003EDIT is used only for XDAII ROM.
So far, I don't see there is any (for the MAGICIAN) at this moment.
i have a mv1000(xda2) i just used the er2003edit to to change the rom files for xda2jojo ver3.2zs win2003se which i downloaded
it seems to work for me... i even changed the spash screen
no errors yet

Search the forum. It has been discussed plenty.
The Extended ROM is a special part of the ROM, that is used of the providers to add their own and additonal files, that have to be installed on the first use of this device. It only have Programs and Reg-Settings in it. Afetr the installtion of this programs, the Memory Part of the extended ROM is useless for the device. You can't access the extended ROM and you can not save data on this memory....
Therefore the bigStorage hack is used to free this memory-part.
HTH

Many thanks!
So... I'm Italian and I buoght my Jam with std Italian ROM.
I like to have Engl leanguage on all my devices so I hack the Country ID and I installed the WWE ROM.
It works fine but I lost some of Italian configuration and some applications (e.g. eTrust antivirus)...
I think that these applications are contained on Italian Extended ROM... is it right?
If is it right... can I install the Italian extended ROM in the WWE ROM?
Or... can I extract the eTRust antivirus and install it on my WWE ROM?
Yes, you should be able to install the programs of the italian extended ROM on the WWE ROM. Since most of the tools are os independet it should be no big problem.
The QtekS100_ITA_1.03.151 ExtRom is on the FTP. If your version was newer or anything else, than you have to get the files by yourself.....
Stefan
Great!
I've got i-mate Jam with the last WWE ROM downloaded fron the clubimate site...
I'd like to install the extended rom's app of Jam instead of S100...
Is possible to download the Jam's ext rom? ANy link?
Many thanks guys!

Copilot recovery

Hello everyone!
I just flashed a new rom that doesn't include Copilot but I need that. What can i do? Is there a cab or something...
Thank you very much
(Obviously i'd like to use this rom)

How can I downgrade my x2?

For THAT you will need for hard-spl..
Of course if someone hacks SEUS to retrieve old images from the updateservice, then i gues you could downgrade..
Downgrade works
It did work for me. I installed the UK MR2 (waiting for the Spanish version) and later downgraded to MR1.

How did you manage to downgrade to MR1? What i understand from SEUS, it always get's the latest version available.. But, if you hack the cab i created (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684323), and create a cab for a language that does not have the upgrade, then that will naturally install the "latest" version (in this case MR1).
But then you have a Spanish version of your phone..
This is just a theory, But if Spain are still waiting for MR2 would it not be possile to use the cabs that hertell has created to set the version you are using and to then upgrade to MR1 Spain BUT install the cabs from MR2 by exiting the customization screen??
Would this not install WinMo 6.5.2 without needing HardSPL

Yes, this would install the spanish version, but then you will have a spanish windows laying under whatever system you have.
BUT.. I noticed that ALL rom-cabs (except about 5 cabs) are the same, so the cabs check from somewhere which language your phone runs, and display from this the proper language.
So, we might have here again a possible way of fooling the installed cabs (applications) to display a different language than the underlying phone in real is running...
Hi, what I did was download the MR1 ROM (any language willddo), extract all the cabs, clear phone mem and just after the screen allignment pres hard reset. After restart it will ask if you want to continiou customization, press NO.
Copy the extracted cabs from the MR1 ROM to your memory card and install every one of them. Some will ask to reboot...press NO.
Agter all the cabs have been installed restart your device, shut down, press volume down and start button, connect to SEUS and tataaaa...your back at MR1 windos 6.5.2.
Regards,
Javier.

Yes, but which language did you refer to? SEUS updates automatically to the latest rom for that particular language you installed..
And to avoid the hassle of installing all cabs, then check my other thread over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684323
All cabs in all languages are exactly the same. It's just about 5 cabs that differ...
You need to download the cabs for your prefered language here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683619
Then follow the instructions I posted earlier.

Javier

Hi,
You did not tell what language you are using. Did you use an old spanish package to get the old MR1 release??
Hi,
yes, I used the Spanish rom.
Regards.
