WM6 and t-mobile - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading

Has anyone a MDA2 working under WM6 with working phonesupport and t-Mobile (Germany)? I tried many combinations of phone-roms and WM6-roms, but no comination worked. On some cominations contacts and calendar was not working. Has anyone a working combination? Please tell me. (Perhaps with howto?)
I would be glad, if anyone could help me!

Your MDA II will work with helmi_c's TOFCLOCK WM6.0 ROM and c_shekhar's WM6.1.2 ROM. For both ROMS you should restrict to Radio ROM version 1.17, as newer versions have not been released for the MDA II. My own T-Mobile NL MDA II is now running c_shekhar's WM6.1.2 ROM and Radio ROM version 1.17 without noticable problems.

Thanks kinderenh!
Unfortunnately I tried both combinations you mentioned, but none was working for me.

if you cleared the regHive and storage between flashes as the guides tell you to
then the issue maybe else where then the rom
and that you use tmobile should not make any difference as contacts and calender should work even without a sim card in

Do Contacts and Calendar REALLY not work, or are the buttons of your MDA II "at the end of their life"?
Additionally, have you used the ExtROM unlocking tools to release the (otherwise hidden) ExtROM space? WM5 may work on your MDA II without doing this, but WM6 almost certainly will not.

I use German Rom by teijalk, see Post #4:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379017
It is 98 percent German and working fine with T-mobile.
The best is that nearly everythng is working fine now.

Hey!
Buttons are working fine. But i didn't read in the instructions of the roms I used, that I had to unlock and free ram for it. I will try it.
Thanks!

Rom update guide?

Hello everyone im new to the forum, i have a t mobile vario, i have managed to unlock it curtusy of lokiwiz unlock 0.2a. i have a few questions if someone could help me on
1. on the unlocker software there is a option of CID unlocking, what is this?
2. is there any differences between the different variations of the wizard, 02 mini, tmobile vario, kjam, qtek.... which has the better firmware??
3. can i put either kjam or qtek firmware on my vario?
Many thanks peeps :lol:
Speaking as an MDA Vario owner who has reflashed with the k-jam ROM (and now can't go back!) I would say the only benefit of changing ROM is to enable 802.11g network access, which T-Mobile disabled in software.
There appear to be no other benefits. On the downside there are features that come with the Vario that do not work with the k-jam ROM. e.g. the email setup wizard does not work. Hardly a showstopper but an example. There is also an error message on resetting about elatepushservices.exe not found or not signed. Again, it doesn't seem to cause a problem but why klutz your machine up without a good reason to do so? The version numbers of everything that comes with the Vario also seem to be higher than the k-jam ROM, which I'm guessing is a good thing.
Unless you simply must have 802.11g connectivity, as well as 802.11b, my recommendation would be to leave well alone. It will also make warranty support much easier.
oh ok so is that the only major difference then. i find my vario isn't that stable. my device currently reads
rom version 1.3.2.2 enu
rom date 9/25/05
radio version 01.04.10
protocol version 4.0.13.17
extrom version 1.3.2.102
did u use ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/ for your firmware?

I did use the clubimate ftp ROM and my equivalent figures, with the Vario extended ROM remaining, are....
rom version 1.1.9.3
rom date 9/16/05
radio version 01.01.10
protocol version 4.0.13.16
extrom version 1.3.2.102
so all my version numbers are lower than yours excep the extended ROM, which I saved from my Vario.
I don't recall the Vario ROM being less stable than the k-jam but you need to be very careful what software you install as there is a lot of stuff that is not 100% WM5 compatible. It might install and it might run but it might also crash or destabilise your machine. I have only installed the T-Nobile supplied GPRS monitor, Total Commander, TomTom 5.21 and a couple of GPS utilities and that's it.
As soon as you start throwing in today plugins and other system utilities that are less than 100% WM5 compatible you are asking for trouble, IMHO.
Hi there,
I just looked on the FTP, but is there any Dutch K-Jam/Qtek 9100 ROM available for the MDA Vario?
Thanks!!
Jeremy.
on the ftp i can see:
RUU_Prodigy_1030710_110_10410_Qtek_NLD_Ship.exe
-> uploads/htc wizard
this is right for you

Just check the XDA-Dev. FTP site.
There you can find the Dutch rom which greddy pointed out.
ftp.xda-developers.com
user = xda
pass = xda
hmmm by the looks of it i might hold out until theres some newer rom updates with significant improvements. at the mo it looks like theres only a few tweeks and i dont wana risk bricking my vario.
t mobile released updates for the mda compact and mda II http://t-mobile.iris-global.com/mdas.html
maybe they'll release some for the vario???
For us we own an english version of Qtek 9100 in which site we'll find the future ROM Updates?
have you tried xda developers ftp site? ftp://xda-developers.com/ or dont qtek have a support area?
Hi there,
Thanks, I didn't see that.
A few questions:
1. HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD THE FILE?? I can access the FTP-server, but when I try to download the Rom, the file stops downloading after apx. 20 - 40%, whichafter I even have to reset my router to get the internet working again. I used both the FTP Explorer and the Internet Explorer.
2. Should I also upgrade the Extended Rom? I want to get rid of these ugly, squared, pink and grey T-Mobile phonepad keys, so is this stored in the Extended Rom?
Which Extended Rom should I use? There are more of them, so which one is for use with the Dutch Qtek 9100 Rom?
Thanks again!!!

If you ae comfortable doing this, could you perhaps make a backup of your t-mobile rom. I downgraded to the k-jams rom without doing a backup...silly me, anyway would be grateful if someone would pop a copy on the ftp here.

Jim
I also done exactly the same, i didn't have a miniSD card, an i was too eager to upgrade so i couldn't backup my rom.
Now i wanna go back to the T-Mobile rom but no one has one on the FTP. would you be able to upload yours?
It would be very much appreciated by a lot of people here.
Cheers
i dont mind creating a back up of my rom, if someone can point me to how i can do this.
i to want to get rid of the rubbish pink phone pad, it looks ugly
jay - are you using ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/ or ftp://xda-developers.com/ ? it should work, unless your connection keeps dropping?
Need to refresh my memory on the back up procedure... get back to you on that later.
Regarding the pink key pad, a bit of registry hacking should sort that out
If you have a registry editor, follow the below, worked fine on Compact II but never got to test it on the vario before the downgrade
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin
Properties
Dword- Enabled
Value - 0 (default HTC skin - cool blue)
if you change the value to 1 it then displays the T-mobile's wonderful pink and grey pad.
Save the changes and they do a soft reset
Hope that helps

Yes, i've tried in the FTP site. But in there the roms are backed up from other devices and not directly from Qtek support. First, I would like know if there is problem or there are any diferrences between roms backed up from devices and the other from official support.
In the end, i'm asking if there is a link for official Qtek support where we can find the future rom updates.
There is a nice pdf guide on backing up your ROM here you need to do procedure 'r2sd all' as opposed to 'd2s' as suggested as that guide was for the magician.

Newest ROM?
Hi,
I own a T-Mobile MDA Vario, too. It is already flashed with a WWE-KJam-ROM. Now I want to know, if there is a possibility to flash a German ROM to it. Or if there is a newer version of the KJam.
My device informations:
ROM version : 1.1.9.3
ROM date : 9/16/05
Radio version : 01.01.10
Protocol version: 4.0.13.16
ExtROM version: 1.1.9.106

t mobile english version
hi to everyone
I have a mda vario with t mobile deutch and I'd like to know if it is possible to flash the rom into english t mobile rom or an other english rom. If possible could u gently explain me how to do?
many thanks
here are so many people with a German MDA Vario.
Isn´t it possible, that one of them reads out the original ROM and set´s it to the ftp so that others, that want a German ROM can flash this?
I am not a professional in this, so correct me if that is not possible...

How is the pda2k WM5 ROM on the FTP??

Hi
would like to know how is the pda2k WM5 ROM and is it the orignal ROM by IMATE? and if it can be installed on a T-Mobile MDA III?
Thank you
pyk
where?
edit: found it, never seen or heard of it before, i dont think its official.
Ive downloaded it and am flashing it now to see what it is...
to me it just seems to be a clean WM5 rom (build 14343.0.0.0) it has no ramdisk, and apart from a nice w-lan manager absolutly no aditional software/control panels applet above standard wm5. as far as can tell everything is working fine, althought the two noticable differences are that it didnt invoke my extrom and there is no systray.
maybe someone know what this is? (could it be and old vesion)

Molski 2.26 ROM and smartdialing

Hi,
This is my first post on the forum. I have been reading up on it for quite some time and I love it!
I have recently downloaded the molski 2.26 rom for my QTEK 9100, which works like a charm. However, one feature that I used to like a lot seems to be missing.
Smartdialing does not seem to function anymore.
Can anyone tell me how to enable this feature again? Or how to install it if it is not part of this ROM?
Cheers,
DeputyNL
smartdial is not included in that rom, install this cab and reset.
That works like a charm, thanks a lot!
you saved my life !! thanks!
Hi,
I'm looking to upgrade to that rom also, is there anything else missing?
I'm currently running rom 2.17.7.2.wwe
Is there a straight forward upgrade from the above rom from Qtek?
deputynl which version of the molski ROM did you install? English or Dutch? Cause I tried the Dutch version and installed the smart dialer afterwards, but the smartdialer messed up the Phonepad layout...
So now I installed the English version, which runs fine with the smartdialer... but just curious
I installed the English version as the Dutch one has some weird translations ('dismiss' does not mean the same as 'negeren').
The install was easy. The only thing I found missing was the smartdialer, other than that, it has all the goodies. Even Push mail worked right out of the box.
I find it to be very stable. The 2.17 seemed to have some painting issues with the phone app, which needed me to reboot the phone once in a while. Also, activesynch over wifi stopped working after activesynch over USB. Both those issues seem to be solved in this firmware.

Missed calls and smses with WiM 6.1 and Radio 1.54

Hi.
Me and a friend have used the WiM 6.1 for a while, he for a month or so and I for a bit longer.
What we both realizes are that we miss calls and smses. Not that we don't hear them, they just don't arrive to our MteORs.
Are we the only ones with that problem? Is there any solution?
Windows Mobile© 6.1 Standard
CE OS 5.2.1711 (Build 19292.1.0.0)
Radio Version 1.54.30.10
RIL Version 2.002
Is it WiM 6.1 or is the radio?
Any thoughts? Anyone know?

Hi Sixx,
I currently use WM6.1 from FutureShock (2.61.0004.0) and Radio 1.54.30.10 her in Germany (ePlus).
I realized a lot of problems like
- dropped calls during a phone call
- partner can't here me after a few minutes while a phone call, then call get's dropped
- call couldn't be made
- No Service
- SMS and Phone calls doesn't reach me, I realized them after 1 oder 2 hours (maybe due to problems with Service)
I already tried to activate GPRS only (no UMTS or Auto), cause this already helped me with my older WM5 ROM (also FutureShock's).
With the older version the phone works fine, so I think I will try to downgrade the radio to 1.38 to see if this works better for me.
Oliver.
No Sim
Sometimes I seem to lose the connection to my simcard.
The breeze shows the message "No Sim" in the home screen.
I haven't found any direct cause for this.
Restarting the breeze will fix this.
So the problem is logical and not physical..

Yeah, I have the same problem. But where can I find the 1.38 radio? The link in wiki seems to be broken.

Exactly what I've done =)
And I haven't seen any probs. Yet =)
Thanx all
I have shipped the shipped rom WWE, and upgrade to wm6.1, but the problem is still there. Now the radio version is 1.54.30.10 still the new ver.
May somebody tell me why or tell me where to download the feasible rom version.
thanks
to downgrade the radio simply use my files and all should work without reflashing the wm5 rom...

re
Are you having the same issue downgrading from 1.54.30.10? This is the hermes radio from hell enjoy many missed calls, delayed txts, dropped calls, bad coverage.
Hermes & Cheetah users also having the same problem -- you can't downgrade/upgrade from this radio rom (despite rom flashes via usb or SD appearing successful) -- once you're on this radio you're screwed.
If Breeze users are having the same issue maybe we can all put our heads together to try and solve this? Our devices are all basically the same inside (despite very different exteriors: i-mate SPJAS, i-mate JASJAM, Treo 750v as examples).
Kaiser users also had a similar issue, however this has now been solved for them: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393337&page=7
The Kaiser fix does not work for Cheetah users, unsure about others.

XDA II Wi-Fi SD Cards

Hello,
Before i upgrade to a WM6 on my 02 XDA II i wanted to know what Wi-Fi SD Cards worked with what version of WM6.
So can anyone tell me what Wi-Fi SD Cards work with what version of WM6 because i was not sure what ones to use and i don't want to buy a card that works with the official WM6 only to find it does not work with the WM6 i downloaded,
Thanks,
Matthew.
There is a thread on wlan SD cards, just use search funktion.
My pluscom card works fine on all the tested roms.
Okay, i have found this wifi SD card:
http://www.techfocus.co.uk/wifi-wireless-80211bg-54mpbs-sdio-adapter-card-p-512.html
It is by Pluscom and i think it is the SD-54.
Has anyone got this working on a version of WM6 on the 02 XDA II?
Thanks alot!
All you want to know is in here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327925&highlight=WLAn+card
As I wrote, it works with all the roms I tested.
Was it easy for you to get that SD-54 working because i have heard that the SD-54 is not compatible with WM6?
Thanks for your reply's.
No problem to install
It wasn't a problem at all. Just install the driver and off you go. That's the way I like it!
Great,
I read on that post that it worked fine on the Syed Athers WM6 Pro but not the Aku 1.0, would you advise getting the Syed Athers WM6 Pro or is there better versions for wm6 out there? Theres so many different versions i don't really know which one to pick!
No problem, too!

It is as simple: You have to test yourself!
Normally you can switch back and forth without any problems.
In case you use PIMBackup in the right version, you can even change WM2k3SE to WM5/6.Xv without loosing any private data like contacts or SMS, ect.
Good luck, and happy testing.
