Can anybody help me with a problem
I want to autoinstall some cab files on a wm5 wizard. (Like tomtom does under wm2003)
Problem WM5 don't want to install!!!
I have used the 2577 folder and the autorun from tomtom, renamed my cabs to the tomtom names (ttn.cab, gps.cab etc) this works fine under wm2003 but will not install on wm5
Does Anybody have a hacked autorun.exe that installs cabs on wm5 or
a Hacked extended rom autorun.exe that reads the config from the storage card instead of the extended rom.
The second option would be better as then all i have to do is re-write the config for different sd-cards
Please Please Please help me all you programmers/hackers/reverse-engineers or whatever you would lke to be known as.
Many thanks in advance
Autorun reads the ini from the /ExtendedRom/ location and that is hardcoded..
I can't be changed because it will render the certificate invallid.
However you can use:
PocketPC Installer ( http://www.pocketpctoolkit.com/index.htm )
It will make an autorun.exe for you (to install cabs registry keys etc etc..)

Doesn't Autoconfig.exe just reads the Config.txt file from the same directory?
Just change the Config.txt so it fits your needs and I think you will be done.
Only problem is that every app will be installed to Main Storage.
I actually have to know this, but cannot try it right now, my device is flashing one of my test Roms

The one from orange (NLD) doesn't. It reads the one in the extended rom.
Have disassebled it with IDA-pro, there I saw the strings pointing to the extended rom.
After patching it I got a certificate error when I tried to run it..

Hi,
I'm trying to add a couple of things to the extended rom of my PDA2K, I've unlocked the extened rom but can't find config.txt in it.
Has anyone else unlocked the extended rom of their PDA2K? If so is there a config.txt in it?
Thanx
There is definitely a config.txt in there. Since I have an XDA2S, it also has an autoconfig.txt file for carrier customizations.
Could someone post extROM cab files for XDA2s from O2
autoconfig.txt

can you post that autoconfig.txt file here please, so i can take a look at it ?
thx
The isn't an autoconfig file. There is an autorun which reads and acts upon the Config.txt file. This is from imate
In Imate PDA2K there's no config.txt. The ExtROM is set up indifferent way. Imate has done that way since ROM 166 for XDAII. The setup.exe do the job
Sorry for the dis-information.

I stuck the config file into the PDA2K and did a hard reset but there was no effect to the setup process. The file was ignored
I had also put the Blue Tooth patch in the extended rom and it showed up in the menu of the InstallCabFile program where you choose your operator. when I chose the patch, it installed everything except for any operator settings.

So is there any way to modify the setup process?
Looking at the config text file not much different other than the Fax Cab file from the final .187 rom from o2. So looks like there is no real gain in it although would still like to have a play with the cab files if anyone has the external rom on their PC to upload.
Is the PDA2K the same as MDA3? I´m a little bit confused about this name.
If so, how did you unlocked the Ext. Rom? I just can made mine visible, but i can not write to it. The Unlock like on MDA2 does not work here...

There is another post somewhere with two files, one to unhide the extRom and another one to unlockit.
Thank you!
I found the problem. i didn´t know that i had to use -xda3 as parameter.
Now everything is working fine.

Go to the file you want start. Then in the Contextmenu of the file click "Open with" and there you can enter the parameters.
Replying to the orginal post.
I'm fairly new to playing around with Ext-roms but here is what I have found so far.
Saqibj - It would seem that the models supplied by different Carriers have been created differently.
I've got 2 PDA2Ks. Which have been sourced in 2 different countries from different suppliers.
Both have
Rom version 1.12.22 WWE
Radio version 1.02.00
And seem to be identical hardware wise.
Device 1 has a std Imate config with no carrier customisations.
Device 2 has a modified extrom with preset network connections, splash screens etc.
Device 1 has a config.txt the other doesn't.
Most of the cabs are common to both devices
(I still don't know what half of them do - but I'm learning from other posts on this site).
Both have an Autorun.exe. - but they are different.
I suspect that the one that doesn't have a config.txt, has had the autorun.exe modfied to load the cabs etc - which obviously should prevent alteration/modification.
This could explain why you don't have a config.txt. If you are unhappy with your extrom contents, I think you can download the unmodified ROM contents direct from club-imate. But I've never done this.
Good luck
TomLin:
Thanx for the explanation, Would it be possible for you to post the autorunfile and the config.txt files, I want ro try to replace them on my ext_rom and see if it works that way.
Thanx
Hello, I have successfully updated my ROM to the Mamaich posted 1.33.51 and all seems well apart form the occasional two GPRS Icon bug. However, I have a few questions as I now want to cook my ExtendedROM to updade some CAB files and remove some I don't need or use. The contents of my ExtendedROM currently looks like this
AutoRun.exe
BA_Album_WWE.CAB
BA_Version_122.CAB
Button9_PIE.sa.CAB
CallerID_wwe.cab
CDL_ECall.CAB
Config.txt
Custimization_CDL_090904.CAB
Default_BTsearchTime.sa.CAB
Default_ImateV112.001.cab
Fax_2.09_WWE_Unremovable_0720.CAB
JMM101257_WWE_1004.CAB
MIDI561.CAB
MMS_v2.0.0.13_BA_WWE_12132004.sa.CAB
OEM_ALL_122_04111601.CAB

I have installed the BT3900 cab file and this seems to work O.K, so my question is I would like to add the BT3900 cab file to my extended rom in addition to the camera can file.
Q1:Can anyone tell me which of the cab files in the list above are Bluetooth related, so that I can remove them.
Q2: By just adding the BT3900 cab file bring me up to date without requiring any Patches.
Q3: Would I need the audiogw.dll that a lot of people refer to
Q4: Are there other things I should consider.
I want to add the camera, phonedialler, smartdialler and BT3900 to my ExtendedROM. I would appreciate any help.
Oh! One final question - Having upgraded to 1.33.51 do I need the wave.dll file.
Thanks for all your help.

"Q2: By just adding the BT3900 cab file bring me up to date without requiring any Patches."
You must add the BT 3900.cab and also RestartRadio.exe to the config.txt as follows:
EXEC:\Extended_ROM\RestartRadio.exe
CAB: \Extended_ROM\[put filename of bt3900 upgrade here].cab
I dont know, if you have to place RestartRadio again after the upgrade.cab, as Wiki says, because after running Autorun, the device softresets itself automatically - wich restarts your radio... - So that is what causes my oppinion, that you wont need another restart before this.
But this is for sure: If you want to add a file to your ext Rom you must edit config.txt too.[/url]
Thanks Bubisch. Yeah I knew I had to update the config.txt.
Can anybody else help with the questions?
I was playing with the Disk on Chip resize utility because I am contemplating upgrading to WM2K5 now it is available. I used the Disk on Chip resizing utility to resize my extended ROM to 10Mb from its default, but I didn't check that I had got a good backup of all the CABs, so now when I unhide my extROM, I see an empty folder. I thought I hadn't unlocked it, but when I try to unlock it, I get
ERROR: FL_IOCTL_BDTL_HW_PROTECTION - A device attached to the system is not functioning
I can however write to my extROM folder
I could just resize extROM back to 16Mb & reflash (I'm using imate 1.40.176), but I'd like to learn something from my mistakes & hopefully just put back the CABs into the extROM. The problem is I don't have the CABs, just the nbf files. How can I extract CAB files from NBFs?
OK, I'm stupid :roll:
I shoulda just looked on the wiki in the extended ROM kitchen, downloaded the RAR file of the appropriate ROM, unpacked it, copied the files into the extended_ROM folder on my BA & tested using a hard reset
Oh yeah, that's just what I did - it worked fine & I now have my extROM sized to fit what I need rather than the default. Apart from saving empty space, I removed skype from the extROM; I can't see the point of having it when I already have a perfectly good phone :wink:
Hi
one time i run harrir extrom unlock and this will loack my storge mamory and i can not unloack it i download unlock cab but this wasent work

RE: Extra Storage
Another method I used.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Alpine/Extra Storage unlocker
Copy the exe in the zip file to your Alpine, then tap to run on pda. It doesn't show a finished message.
I use 'resco explorer', with show hidden etc in the settings, I haven't tried to vew with only the standard file explorer, it may work as well.
Goto Windows on your pda and you should see a folder called 'shared' it should show 60.9mb free. If you do use Resco Explorer and hold your stylus on the shared folders and select properties, you can change all the attributes (Hidden, Archive, Read, Write and ROM), although I haven't needed to. :lol:
Correct Link for above

Hello
I'm be happy that a way seems to be real, but it do not work on my 2020I.
I select unlock Extrom, but the Extrom is no visible, so i select Unhide and it say to me to do soft reset. After it, i don't see any Extrom. Only way is to use original LoadVisk, but it is writeProtected.
Where i am in fault ?
Thank's
QTEK 2020I ROM 1.124 French
I used the Loadvisk on my XDAIIi and I can write to it etc (Shared folder in windows).
Use Resco file explorer to change the shared folder attributes. Make sure you configure Resco to show hidden files etc.
Heres the link
http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/explorer/default.asp
Loadvisk
Here is Loadvisk program I used on XDAIIi, it may help
Confused loadvisk does not access ext rom?????
I'm confused about loadvisk. I thought it unlocked the ext ROM, but no it only gives access to your RAM not to extended rom.
I tried the other tool on here unhide, unlocked, where do I access the rom in my file explorer?
so please ignore my previous posts about loadvisk.
How can I reverse loadvisk to hide the shared folder again?
sorry if this is a bit jumbled, I'm just finding out about this stuff myself
Thank's for reply
But it do not work.
If i use loadvdisk_493.exe, it show Extended_Rom as entry, that is the same result as LoadVdisk.exe that exist in Windows directory. I can't modify files inside Extended_Rom and it as this name, not Shared folder. It is not a folder but new media and with resco 5.22 i can't change attributes because it do not permit to media, only with files or folder.
Secondly, if i use Exttrom_200_250.exe, i can't write to in Extended_Rom.
Is this write for you ??

RE: EXT Memory
Hi,
Loadvisk has nothing to do with extended memory, it creates a virtual disk of your Program RAM (see 'Memory' on you PDA). This shows as a folder called 'shared' in Windows, when you copy files to this folder, the look at your memory, you will see that it stores in your program section of your memory and so I wouldn't bother with it.
I have had a good look around and I can find nothing to unlock the true extended memory, only the tool you used to unhide it.
You can flash your extended memory with the 2577 method, but this is not ideal for users who just wnat to access and write to ext memory.
Full details link below
http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/PDAforum_posts.asp?TID=373&PN=1
There is another method to write to the extended rom but is far more involved than the method DAz mentioned. It does actually write to the Extended ROM so it therefore survives a hard reset and allows you customise the ROM with programs and remove stuff you don't use like the bloody annoying O2 active crap.
I've used it and can say that with a little patience it is fairly easy to do, although trial and error is required sometimes. Some programs don't seem to install from a hard reset however most do (Pocket Plus, Resco Explorer, TCPMP etc work fine).
Here's the link:
