TMobile MDAIII in UK...ROM

Does anyone have an MDAIII from TMobile released in the UK? I have a German MDAIII using an PDA2K ROM now and would love to put the TMobile UK English version ROM on it....

I have the UK T-Mobile ROM, but haven't worked out how to back it up yet.

Thanks for the reply....I'm not quite sure how you would back out an existing ROM. Does T-Mobile UK have a support website for downloading ROM upgrades and such?

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/DumpRom
I sent an email to the developer to see if he could update the tool for the 128 bit header that the MDAIII has instead of the 64 bit header that of the XDAII and I.
You could try it as is though.

Anyone else have any luck dumping the full ROM from a UK T-Mobile MDAIII?
I'd like to get this crappy Imate ROM off my German MDAIII and load he latest T-Mobile UK WWE ROM...
Any and all help is appreciated!!

Same here. Someone must have one :|

I have a UK T-Mobile MDA III. If someone posts me a link to the required Rom dump tools and a quick walk thru or command line then i'll upload it.
Anything to speed up development on it as i really need it unlocked :lol:

Does anyone know if it would be possible to drop the T-Mo MDA III ROM into an XDA IIs?
I love the black case so much in comparison to the PDA2k and MDA III that I'd be willing to buy one and try it out. Of couse, there's also the issue of unlocking it if not already unlocked...
Any information would be appreciated. Thanks!

Did you figure it out "gonesuper"?
Does anyone know if T-Mobile UK has a ftp site to download ROM updates like Qtek and Imate?

Nothing? If T-Mobile UK is selling the MDAIII through their business channels, where is the support URL to download software for it?

Hi,
I've found a site which describes how to backup the ROM to a SD card on an XDA IIs so presumably it would work for the MDA III? here's the link:
http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=151&PN=1
If anyone is successful I would dearly love to get a copy as I'd like to swap my MDA but not let them know that I've been screwing with incorrect firmwares!
Cheers, JDH

Now that the MDAIII is listed on T-mobile UKs website, does anyone know the web address for ROM downloads on T-mobile UKs websites?

Dagger ga, I am currently complaining to T-Mobile UK about this very issue and there is another guy in the same boat. The MDA III still have the bluetooth and mic issues and although T-Mobile Germany has seen fit to post an patch/upgrade (including blackberry) the support in the UK is non existent.
I would urge you to add your voice to mine and contact T-Mobile UK customer services/technical support. Hopefully at this rate they have got to start to listen to all of us. The non existent support is scandalous for such a high end device.
Incidentally I have written another post as expansys.com on this to the other person who has these issues. See the forum: imate/PDA2K if you are interested.

Hello,
The best thing to do is install another ROM eg, i-mate ROM, and then install all the T-Mobile Extended ROM files from backup...
To backup the extended ROM...
1) Download this file to your device and run it! - ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Extended_ROM_Kitchen_1_22/Tools/xda-developers _Unlocker.CAB
(this will installed the extended rom tools to your device.)
2) Under "Programs\Extrom Tools\" on your device click, "unlock" then click ok, next click "unhide" then ok! After this reset your device.
3) With the device ActivSync'd to your PC, browse to your device from you PC and you'll now see a folder called "Extended ROM" in the main "Device" window. In here are all your extended rom files. Copy ALL the files in this folder to your computer - DO NOT DELETE OR MODIFY ANY FILES IN THIS FOLDER (unless you know what you're doing)!!!
4) Go back into "Start\Programs\Extrom Tools\" on your device click, "lock" then click ok, next click "hide" then ok! After this reset your device.
5) ALL DONE - you should now have a copy of your extended ROM files.
Hope this helps...

Dom
Thank you for the advice you have offered. Unfortunately I am a complete novice and don't even know how to get hold of the latest Imate ROM.
If you have the time could you PM me with some further details on how to download the new ROM.
Apologies for being a pain and thanks again :?

Thanks to both DOM and the author of the above post.
I have got some reading and learning to do. Thanks for your patience for someone who is completely new to this whole xda world. No doubt I will have lots of questions along the way so I will keep this message short.

Current and Stable Wizard ROM?

I see there are a bunch of ROMS in the FTP, I am at a loss to which one I should be using however. I've been trying a few and some of them run laggy yet others run fine but have some stuff missing (one of them didn't have a button to disconnect from GPRS?)
I'm pretty new to this, I have a "Orange SPV M3000" from Orange NL but I don't want the Dutch ROM on there..
Just a simple question, what English ROM is currently the best one I should be using, and what Extended ROM files should I have as a necessity?

the one from Qtec 1.6.7.1 is the best i think

PM Me with it?
Since all the WM5 ROMs have been removed from the FTP site could someone please PM me with the Qtek ROM mentioned above? Or upload it to yousendit.com and post a link to this thread (or PM it).

Not sure what you're talking about - it's still there;
HTC_Wizard/Roms/Qtek/Qtek_9100_1_6_7_ENG__OS_ONLY.zip

Hey, is it possible to unlock and rewrite the Extended Rom on this version?

What I've heard is that past version 1.6.x.x that the Extended ROM is READ ONLY.. I've been having problems trying to put things into my Extended ROM. I even reverted to an older firmware just to update it, without success I might add.
Is there any work around??

oh i thought that the 1.6 not have the rom locked :-(

Go for the WWE AKU2 rom. I am using the 2.8.7.1 one from Qtek on the Vario.
There are operator specific cabs available for ie gprs and mms
Its stable!

Looking for ROM for Verizon issued XV6600 BA

I've been reading here for a couple of hours now - and looking at the ftp site and wiki - yet I'm still not sure what I need. I'm looking to update my Verizon (US) issued BA that is running ROM 1.36 WWE, Radio HA01_151 (not sure how to translate that), Ext ROM 1.36.117, and BT build 3500.
I'd like to update everything I can, I had a single update package at one point but now can't seem to find it anyplace.
Can someone tell me if there is a WWE package that will work here in the US with Verizon that is up to date?
Thanks in advance!

Qtek 9100

Help, I have Qtek 9100 on the O2 network in England, it doesn't have all the O2 customisations so I'm thinking it is a basic Qtek ROM. At the moment it is running the 1.1.7.5. ROM. I'm looking to upgrade the ROM, the 2.1.7 seems to be the best. But despite reading through the forum I have some questions.
1 - Does the Qtek 9100 need CID unlocking? I've read that if I install the Qtek 2.1.7 upgrade I won't need to CID unlock the phone.
2 - Is the latest ROM shown on the Qtek site the 2.1.7. version?. I have tried to log on to that site but its says it does support the IMEI I've entered.
3 - What is Cingular?
4 - Could some one post the link to the 2.1.7 Rom English upgrade?, I've found a step by step guide to upgrading and loads of links to different ROM's But want to be sure that I've got the link to the right one.
5 - Is it worthwhile carrying out the upgrade, and how likely am I to bust my phone?
Thanks in advance for the advice, In short all I want the best upgrade with the least amount of hassle to upgrade.

Hi,
If you stick with the Qtek rom, you dont need to CID unlock...but it is worth doing for future use...as you can not CID unlock a v2 ROM....yet.
Cingular is a US phone company...like O2, T-Mob etc.
If you follow the instructions, you should be ok, i have done a couple, and touch wood have all been ok.
I think you need a ROM from this lot:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard/Roms/Qtek/
but I dont know which one is the newest...most stable etc.
GOOD LUCK

I'm in a similar situation here, I've currently got the O2 Supplied 2.21.4.1 WWE ROM, most people here seem to be upgrading to other ROM's such as those supplied by QTEK... looking at the Wizard ROMS on the FTP, which one should I be upgrading to? And what are the 'prophet' ROM's on there?

think I've got it it sorted now, shouldn't need to CID unlock if I use the Qtek 2.1.7 release. Not sure I need any other companies Roms unless someone is going to tell me they have some features I can't live with out ?

Where to find Offical UK ROM for Tytn II

I have been searching the web but I could not find a place where I can download the Official UK ROM for the Tytn II.

Is there one?
I was under the impression (although i could be wrong) that HTC didn't sell direct in the UK so the ROM would be dependant on the branding of the phone.
Look Here for links to the 4 UK operators' ROMs and the WWE BaseROM

What network are you on, and have you flashed a new rom yet?
I am on Orange, and before I started I found (what I believe to be) the original Orange rom by googling for the exact rom as it gives on your device.
To find this go to Start > Settings > System > Device Information.... ROM version, then Google for this exact string (i.e. 1.81.61.2 WWE).
I found the one I was looking for (it was within xda dev forums actually) so I could revert back for warranty purposes should I need it.
Hope this helps
Tom
