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 :?

Jiggy
Try wiki Blueangle section:

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.

LOL and PLONK.......

LOL
I also thought it was an official relase
Anyway my gps works like a charm!

From ACE Hellas the OFFICIAL HTC representative here in Greece i learned that on the 2nd of April we will be able to download the OFFICIAL GPS ENABLED rom from their site, the rom is ROM: 1.23.405.2
Radio: 1.38.00.11
ExtROM: 1.23.405.103
Ελληνικά: 3.3.0
The last bit is the greek customisation,if you see any difference between this and the Belgian rom please let me know because i can't.
By the way which GPS program are you using?

The ROM is officially supported by the importer of HTC devices in the Benelux (Dangaard) and also in the other countries that this importer operates.
They got the rom from HTC as they don't make them theirselves.
Maybe HTC wants you to believe it's not official, but this is not a test rom, it's really an official rom.

Until HTC upgrade their website to allow downloading of firmware, I'm guessing this is as official as we're going to get.

1. If it is a non official one... I do not think that we can install it without super CID ?
2. I do not expect that HTC will make 3 French ROMS or more (Belgian, French, Swiss...)

No, waiting just for Dangaard italian release (better than nothing...).
Maybe HTC is about to wonder us with a WM6 upgrade?

The part of that letter you should concentrate on is "have not released". That doesn't mean that it isn't an HTC made official ROM. It is quite official to the region in Belgium and was released by their provider...which isn't HTC, but the ROM is made by HTC and given by them to the provider in Belgium. HTC is not going to admit that there is a new ROM available elsewhere until they offer it on their own web site because people would throw a fit when they would be unable to download it. This thread title is very misleading, the rom is not "home cooked". You should spend some time trouble shooting your device setup, the problems that you are experiencing is not the fault of the rom.

The ROM is only official in the countries where HTC has released it. But they won't make a WWE ROM for each country so this will be released in every country

So do I.
If you check the HTC-europe web site, they say " there are not ANY upgrade to ANY of our products...." HTC will not admit they made them for whatever the legal/technical reasons they may have....

Official WM6 spotted!

See the HTC WM6 Answers topic for more info, but i just flashed my Herald to a dutch WM6 ROM!
ftp://210.136.175.150/romcode/RomCode/HERALD-C9
There they are.

Is it true or a fake ?
I don't want to brick my device !
Another question: is your phone SuperCID ? Thx for answers !

I just flashed it, its the real thing, check the other thread for more information if you dont trust it

I just checked on the other thread and it seems to be real. I saw the information on a french forum (cause I'm french)

I just got my Wing and it has Mobile 6 should I dump and post? Or do enough people have it out there already

Enough people have plus we've already started making custom roms. Plus there Tmobile RUU is out so the official tmobile rom is out, plus the official herald is out. What a glorious month! lol

Finally - thanks
He man,
thanks a lot. I can finally try to unbrick my Dutch P4350. Many many thanks (I can't get the Rom from the official e-club site yet)

thanks my phone is ALIVE

I love you

Not working for O2 Terra!!!
Vendor-ID error and yes i took the german one!

I uploaded on rapidshare WM6 RUU WWE
HTC_P4350_WWE_4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90
http://rapidshare.com/files/49216240/HTC_P4350_WWE_4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe

So, where are some of these custom roms? :-D

This worked for my dutch Herald! It's unbricked now and working smooth, thank you very much for this, now i don't have to send it to HTC repaircenter!

anyone have a english version ? i'v tried to download it from the htc eclub. it says to choose your handset from the list and language then download but doesn't give you the list.
I contacted HTC and they said the amount of people who have registered on the eclub just for that download and messed everything up. so don't know what's happening ?

Now all we need is a way to CID unlock our T-Mobile wings. . .
Anybody know the cost of doing it through imeicheck?

Purchase HTC Herald (Vodafone VPA Compact IV, HTC P4350,T-Mobile Wing) Unlocker Key for GBP 20.00
(apx. EUR 28.00 / USD 38.00)
from: http://www.imei-check.com/heraldunlock.php

English version worked great. No problems

I'm so f*cking mad now My device is at HTC Reapair Centre now
edit: Hell yes! Yust called a friend at the repair centre and my phone is coming back from HTC today
Let the cooking BEGIN

thank you.but.....there is no one rom for c800(TaiWan,China)?

You are probably a customer of O2 (as I am).
We have to wait, until O2 releases the new Rom Version.
I have read in a different thread, that thay will release a update soon

Hi,
yes i think so. The animations looks same as the old ones.
What animation did you mean specifically?

Hi,
just a quick question:
I have the T-Mobile MDA Compact IV and I can't even find a place on the T-Mobile website where a potential ROM update would be announced.
Anybody an idea where I would need to look?
Thanks!

Its in fact quite tricky to find software updates for t-mobile phones.
But this is your page:
https://after-sales-service.t-mobile.de/eg_online/html/t-mobile.htm
But you have to be very patient, because even if T-Mobile releases a Rom Update it will take a long time. Until now they have never released a Update for the MDA Touch. Thats why I changed from T-Mobile to O2, I hope they do better...

Thank you Tilgi!
Even if the MDA is not listed there (at least they could upload the manual), I now know where to find jack

@fearomoon
if you mean the animation if you go thru the "tabs" of Touch-Flo...they are not anymore in the new Rom 1.93...

http://rapidshare.com/files/1341673...igned_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe
German Rom for people with branded devices, who cannot sign in to HTC e-club!
Enjoy it.

TouchFlo Animation is definitely gone! No menus sliding in anymore. Thats why its faster though

hey alteraffe
on german T-Mob, if they descide to finally release it (they don't always do!) you will find it here: http://www.t-mobile.de/business/0,1793,20287-_,00.html (choose 'Hersteller: T-Mobile' 'Gerät: MDA Compact IC' of course)

Edit: just checked the after-sales-service.t-mobile page - this does not even show the AKU3.3 for the charmer (Compact II) which is available from T-Mob since 07/2007! So I would not count on that page being very up to date....

hey guys!! i need the official upgrade for my device henever i go through the htc website they say this software is not suitable for your device, can somebody give me the direct link, heres my device serial number (S/N) :HT823GN22600

Hi guys I am looking for any compatible rom that is English. I have Diamond unit with Spanish ROM on it. I need English compatible ROM. I tried one from mediafire link above but installer gave me error saying invalid vendor id. I guess I can't just install any it needs to be specific carrier or vendor.
Here is info from about:
version: 1.93.476.3 ESN
Data 09/02/08
version 1.00.25.08
version 52.33a.25.17H
I really don't know anything about this unit I do not see any carrier markings on the box or start up screen , it looks like unbranded unit made for Spain may be. If possible provide direct link to rom I can use or may be some advice where I can look.
Thank you !

Thank you very much for your reply. Unfortunately I tried several roms that I thought are English and all of them showed me "INVALID VENDOR" error. is there anyway you can specify ROM I can use with my unit, if you not sure what I have to begin with I'd be more than happy to provide any info needed to identify unit I have.

Hard spl and you can install whatever rom u want....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
....
CID lock (aka vendor lock): put on your device by the manufacturer to prevent installation of a ROM not released by them.
HardSPL: This modified bootloader allows a much safer flashing process to take place since it reduces the chance of permenently bricking your device. It also removes the need to CID Unlock the device since it ALWAYS reports SuperCID when flashing. See the official thread for more info.
