How to tell the rom is unlocked?

If you can delete files from \Extended_ROM well then it's obiviusly unlocked, and if you can se the folder \Extended_ROM well then it's obviusly Unhidden :wink:

Thanks!!

I only see in the extended rom folder an unlockextrom exe and when I run this exe a small window appears debug and inside this it says Usage: unlockextrom[-lock/unlock][-hide/-unhide]. And after if I press ok nothing happens.
Is this the correct tool or Iam doing something wrong. Thanks again

Download the UnlockTool
Put in on your Device, lets say \Storage\Temp
Open FileExplore on device
Navigate to \Storage\Temp\xda-developers_Unlocker.CAB and click on it to install.
Go Start->Programs->ExtRom Tools->Unhide to be able to se the ExtRom (Soft reset before you can se it)
Go Start->Programs->ExtRom Tools->UnLock to be able to write to your ExtRom. Remember to lock it again when your finished!!!!!
Go read the Wiki :wink:

I can delete files within the \Extended_ROM folder but can't delete the folder. Does this mean it is unlocked, but I can't delete the folder?

when i'm trying to unhide there's nothing happen after i soft reset i still can't see the Extended_ROM storage and when i'm trying to unlock (i'm using xda-developers_Unlocker.CAB) my device keep saying " ERROR: FL_IOCTL_BDTL_HW_PROTECTION - The parameter is incorrect." plese help me.....

try the cab i attached. if that does not work for you, you have one of those devices, that simply won't unlock. plus, looking at your signature, you seem to be using wm6. unlocking and resizing the extrom partition is ONLY possible in wm2003, before you try to access the extrom, you must downgrade first!

Official i-mate ROM release (1.40.176 & 1.12.00)

It's too good to believe:
ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/PDA2k_WWE_14000_176_11200.exe
I'm downloading now.
Tom

39.6MB (their server is really slow today)
From i-mate site:
The details of the new ROM image are:
For the Worldwide English Build:
ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Radio version: 1.12.00
Protocol version 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.40.176 WWE
I think they waited until the pros on this site figured everything out first...then they just piggy-backed on their findings. Kudos to the real pros on XDA-devel!!!

How to install this rom in Spanish Qtek 9090, i'm new and y don't now very well to change the language.
Thank you!

imate update
I just got the update from the I-mate site and am working it with the XDA tools but I'm getting a checksum errors on the radio, NK, and MS filles. Should I be using a different tool? My device is a MDA III T-mobile german flashed to english. Any Ideas???

Downloaded, installed and running. No problems....yet. I can't find a config file in the extrom in order to make some changes, but there's a setup.exe file now. Not sure what that's about.
No idea how to change the language...I'm not good enough to know that.
More later.
Tom

So far so good. A couple issues. 1) the phone off (or flight mode on) is no longer activated by the Call End button. Shame...I loved that feature. 2) I have a problem turning the phone on (flight mode off) after a soft reset. I think it may be caused by the Contacts Button addin. The only way I can turn on the phone is to go into the keypad and then turn it on. All other methods cause the system to lockup.
Tom

Temporary copy...
Until someone puts it up on xda-developers / cooks it,
a MUCH faster loading copy is at

Ehud

Great!!!!!
I'm downloading it right now!!
i-mate finally released it after 1000's of unkept promises!

FINALLY!!! Here's to hoping it will be better than the Qtek version!

Again, I would like to ask why there is no config file??? I take it setup.exe has the config file built in? If any of the pros can give me some feedback as to this, I would appreciate it. I'd like to drop in several cab files incase I fubar something down the road.
Thanks,
Tom
P.S. almost 6 hours and only the "turning on the phone" problem.

yes... config is missing...
will try out some combinations .

Ture...true. Skype was fun the first couple times, but with VOIP at home, I really don't need it anymore. Still, kind of cool to show people...if you have someone that you can connect to.
Tom

Tried some combos, including, using the old config and setup files... nothing wrorks,
only thing is that any additional file found in ext rom is treated as a carrier customization file, and on selecting one file , that particular file will be installed..
also, i noticed that there is one config file in the windows directory.

Just take the Autorun.exe and config.txt from another rom, add in the cabs from the i-mate rom, and there you go.
Yeah, I will be removing Skype ASAP myself. I can understand how it could be useful, but for my purposes, it just takes up space.

The Setup.exe is way better then the config
Leave the setup the exe it is better then the config. with the config you have to site the and write a line for each cab file. the setup.exe automatically runs every cab file in the ext rom. whether you put it there or not. So when cookinh your extended rom no need to keep having to change the config.txt. The setup will run whatevers there.

You can find this new ROM at ftp upload folder hope MDAIIIUser can move to wiki , I will upload ext.ROM by tomorrow

Do I need to keep autorun.exe ? If yes, then which one old or new?

sunish, I can not imagine why it would not work. You must have made a mistake somewhere.
The WMP10 close problem still exists, which leads me to conclude that it is indeed a problem with the 1.40 CE Rom, and not something within the Extended rom muddling it up.
Has anyone seem any actual improvements with this rom over Qtek's? All of the same problems still to be in place. The extended rom has a few different (but unimportant) cabs, but that's about it.
MarcValme, I'm not so sure I agree. One of the good things about the config.txt file is that you can specify the order in which the cabs install, which does actually make a difference in a few circumstances. Food for thought.

TheLastOne,
Don't know / Can't figure out where is the problem.
No combination is working for me.
Maybe will try it again after a day or so.
Right now, after unhiding the Ext ROM, I'm installing all the programs needed by me manually.
One thing that I noticed is the increase in speed... The performance is somewhat better now...

Challenge for the xda-gurus-Solution for Intern.SmartDialing

I have uploaded a greek rom file for the htc wizard.
This ROM has a second level of protection that can not be bypassed only by CIDunlocking a phone.
After installing the ROM, uppon second boot (first boot installs ext rom then restarts) it displays a message
"This rom is intended only for devices sold by ace hellas" and freezes.
I think it searches for a valid IMEI range but I am not sure.
I am trying to find the exe file responsible for locking up the phone (using WM5 editing tools my maimach) but I have no luck yet. If someone could lend a hand I would be gratefull. Even giving me a hint (like how to edit the registry from a dumped ROM etc.)
Anyway, the file is located here.
http://dcom.teipir.gr/RUU_Prodigy_10107105_Qtek_WWE_ship_GR1.04.exe
Thanks in advance
Below, you can find instructions to customize smartdialing for recognizing characters for any language

My best man has the EXACT same problem with his Universal.
We haven't uploaded the firmware yet but can easily be downloaded through qtek.gr.
Can someone help?
It's a pitty not to be able to use the device just because he bought it outside Greece.
It's an interesting challenge after all.
Andrew, maybe you can send me a PM with what you have tried yet.

Check your Extended_ROM files. They might be what you are looking for. Probable workaround might be soft-resetting your device before extended_rom files are being installed, i.e. hard-reset your device now and immediately soft-reset it when you will see message "Customizing will start in 3 sec..." or something like that...

The IMEI is stored in registry within "RIL" branch, but your IMEI is not touched within traditional flashing/reflashing

A Russian fellow had done this job last year, for the S100 Greek Rom (Anansky i think was his name). The lock is not on the extended rom, but on the main OS. And if i remember well, it has an IMEI checking ytility, and another one which checks Language settings for the Language selection utility to work, but this can be changed with registry hack. Well, we are all waiting...

no it's not in extended ROM at least for the Universal (and sorry for posting in Wizard forum) - we tried your method from the first moment

1. No, extended rom has nothing to do with it , for sure.
2. Yes, anansky has done it before for the htc magician (my previous phone) but never revealed a howto.
@NLS
I have found a suspicious file called langbootcheck.exe which I tried deleting (with WM5 edit tools) prior to flashing my device. But then the device won't boot at all. Maybe this file is needed, or maybe I did something wrong?
If someone could at least tell me, how to edit the registry hives with the wm5 editing tools. This way I could see wich applications are executed on startup.

Did you try to play with HKLM\Comm\BootCount value? To put it as 0 so it is always thinking of a just hard-resetted device?

no I didn't try that, nor the device is mine (to try)
andrew try having a 0 byte file in place of the exe - maybe it needs the file to be there but nothing to happen when it is called
maybe Ace (since I am 99.5% sure that they read xda-developers), could give us a hint on why they have done this (when nobody else did on the whole planet)...

No, but it sounds like a good idea. That would explain why it doesn't lock up during the first boot process. But then again there is no way to change it because the os automatically reboots itself. Unless it installs a cab file from ext rom that does the trick. Do you think this might work?

i realy doubt it! I mean giving us a hint
I will try to replace the file with a zero-sized one. But then again I'm not even sure if it is the file responsible. I mean, that I just guessed (because the name sounded suspicious). It could be any other file. The file name could be desguized. Thats why I need to know 2 things:
1) How to edit the registry with maimach's WM5 editing tools.
2) Where is the startup configuration located i the registry

I didn't say tell us "how", I said for the to tell us "why"...
anyway...

Yeah ACE sux, well it's been really disgusting to lock the roms so we anyone who want Greek language to buy only from em. ACE think theirselves smart enough and all the other like Russian, italian, norwegian, dutch and many more who have their Qtek rom unlocked are the "stupid"...
Anyway this is a different story..
I am available to help in any way but i'm not such an expert user as you to play with the editing tools.
P.S:I see the rom is uploaded on a TEI of Piraieus server, you have any connection with teipir? I'm in the Automation.

NOone? :!: Buzz? Come on, you will make many people happy!!!!
I don't want to sound nagging but it must be very easy for you!!

I found another approach to our problem.
Instead of trying to hack the rom, I extracted some dll files needed for the greek smartdialing.
I dumped the Greek rom and followed the instructions here.
http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_simpleboard&Itemid=59&func=view&id=10204&catid=45
but used the Greek smartdialing.dll instead of the one posted above.
It worked very well. I even edited the smartdialing cab found on the ext rom and included the dll. So each time I hard reset the device, the smartdialing feature works for greek characters. I think the smartdialing can be customized just as easily for any other language, just as long as you find the .dll in your language. (For this, download a rom containing the language, and user WM5 editing tools found on xda-devs).
If someone needs it, I can upload the greek smartdialing cab to overwrite the one in your ext rom (for wizard only).
I also use AEKMAP for the internal qwerty and I find it very stable, simple and small.
So I guess there is no much point in hacking the greek rom (unless someone wants the menus customized - I don't).

how did you dumped the greek rom ?

Wizard ROM ported to BA - v1.0-ToMa discussion

I think this deserves its own topic. Original post from Tuatara:
Hi everyone ...
Sorry, I've run out of time for providing you with an updated ROM which I wanted to have feature complete. I'm off on vacation tomorrow for 2 weeks, and can't keep working on it until I'm back.
I've been playing around with many things (adding/removing files, fixing the Midlet Manager, updating Camera, etc.) but I haven't got the ROM to the point where I feel it's 100% ready for others - but having said that, I've uploaded it to XDA Dev, and you're welcome to give it a try and see if it improves things for you.
This is MAINLY an update from Mamaich's v2a ROM, which does contain the Quantum Timing Patch, and the Performance Tweaks.
I've also made a few filesystem changes - predominantly removing the Midlet Manager (which wasn't working), applied all of the Performance Tweaks as per the thread (and a few more), changed the default startup elements to suit my tastes (at the moment), and added some useful programs and details to the ROM. (psShutXP, Running Programs, Shortcuts to missing elements, etc.)
The ROM is in /Uploads/Blue Angel/wm5_test/Tuatara_v2a_Custom.zip
Inside the ZIP file is the nk.nba file, along with the updated registry files (boot.rgu, default.rgu, and user.rgu) which have been merged in. I've unfortunately forgotten to include initflashfiles.dat in the ZIP, but that file is directly available from inside the ROM anyways.
The ZIP also contains a different EXTROM - only the missing files, camera, and midlet manager are needed now, and there is no warning about publisher on installation anymore. You can obviously customize the EXTROM cfg.txt file to your liking, and install anything and everything all at once.
Additionally the ROM itself still has some additional space for applications, so if you want to cook your own, there is some space available to add more.
Sorry I won't be able to answer any questions about this ROM, or handle issues on it for two weeks, so it's up to you if you want to try it (or just decompose it and look at the changes).
Enjoy, and I hope everything goes well.
Regards,
Robert.

Personal thoughts: I think this ROM gives some performance boost indeed, not much, but it is noticable. Nearly every bug is fixed now, only the bluetooth disconnect issue is left. My BA is fianlly shows itself disconnected when i take it off the cradle (with the previous ROMs, it often showed that it is still connected).

Enabling SmartDialing
Hi, I've tried this ROM & this definitely faster! Thanks!
But I can't seem to enable SmartDialilng by removing the "_" from the mfc80u.dll_ and msvcr80.dll_ files for SmartDial will start to work? These 2 files are missing from this ROM but even after I've copied these 2 files into the \Windows folder, SmartDialing still doesn't work. Any ideas?

I downloaded the new Rom and having a little trouble trying to download to my SX66. I have upgraded and downgraded the WM5 on my SX66 several times. I was wondering since the rom file is nba instead of nbf does that make a huge difference. I admit have have not messed around with my device data cause I find that a little complicated. I usaully use the MA_Upgrade cause I don't have to tweak too much. Any suggestions?

In this case, you should use the harder way. Read step 4 of the upgrading process (see wiki) to upgrade via BaUpgradeUt.exe.

The nk.nba file needs to be converted back to nk.nbf regardless of whether you use MA_Upgrade or BA_Upgrade. I use MA_Upgrade. There is an modelid entry of the USER.rgu that should be changed to PH20B1. I'm not sure whether these *.rgu files need to be copied to the \windows dir or added back into the nk.nba file. Any thoughts KTamas, i'm thinking the later.

You don't have to do anything with RGU files at all. You need to use xda3nbftool (with editfix.bat if you want) to patch the ROM.

Thanks, and yes i've tryed too to unlock and unhide the extended rom in wm2003, but the supplied tool has failed too, with some other error that i don't remember

Perform these steps in WM2003SE
1. unlock extrom
2. unhide extrom
3. resize extrom to 128k
you now have 60 mb storage (it is storage, not storage card)

Very strange... i've asked a friend with an imate p2k and the tools worked correctly, so i've downgraded to an imate wm2003se rom (my was a qtek one) and everything goes ok..

I'm glad i was helpful

is there any way to resize this without downgrading?

Hiya
I was searching XDA-DEVELOPERS website about 2 days to find a solution for this problem, I have an I-mate PDA2K, i used all EXTROM tools on this website like this:
1- Installed EXTROM_tools,
2- run UNHIDE ,
3- then run UNHIDE,
4- Soft Reset,
5- now i can see Extended_ROM on my file explorer, i can read it , and able to write on it ... copy paste ...
6- run REPART_DOC.exe on my device,
7- tried many sizes like 128kb, 1024, 2048, 512, 61000, .................
but on this step i always get the god damned FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL_DRIVE failed,
i finally used Task 28 under MTTY but nothing happened, still have this problem,
No Wayyyyyy ! No wayyyyyyyyyy to repart my DOC size, .... noooooooooooo wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
anyone going to help me plzzzzzzzzzzz ?

try this fix....
you should try to flash your extrom to another language of Extrom... or another carrier.
according to the bottom notes of THIS(Read this) post...
then try the procedure again in WM2003

PH20B O2___001 (O2XdaIIs)
Tried that ROM, as well as others to no avail. Installed WM6 anyway, let the internal battery drain, and random stuff disappeared. Owner info, start menu and today items, program settings, etc. I assume because it was stored in volatile memory. Please investigate!
