MMS Composer working with German T-Mobile MDA1 (with PW2003) - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

I have upgraded my MDA1 from T-Mobile Germany with the actually
downloadable PW2003 Upgrade.
Unfortunately the MMS-Composer (Arcsoft) isn't integrated.
Who knows where to get it with all necessary components included
an has successfully installed yet.
My first test with a received version "MMS Composer v1.6.0.9" failed.
The installation went well, but the application doesn't start.
I get an error message like "some components or libraries missing"
thanks for any help.

Hi Biso007
I have read this topic carefully an this also th source, where I dowlnloaded the software. but
I didn't work. the programm does not start. there must be something missing (runtime library or so)

The only difference is that you have a german ROM ... mine is 4.01.00 ENG and this s/w works with no problems at all.
What do you mean by the s/w doesn't start ? ... err message ??
Also, can you see the plugin on Today screen ? ... make sure it's checked and do a soft reset.

I get an error-message by trying to launch the mms-composer
It shows am error-message, saying that there are some components or libraries missing an ist not possible to start the programm.
I can see the plugin in the start-screen.
I did also softresets, but no way.

I believe many applications use standard system DLLs which may have different names in each ROM ... unless you have deleted one of those DLLs by mistake, it seems the German ROM requires special version of the MMS composer.
If you really don't have much on your device and ready to the hassle of reinstalling everything, try a hard reset then install the MMS composer.

I had the same trouble, same error. I'm using Australian O2 XDA with a jsummer brewed ROM 4.00.11 (Non Tmobile) Radio 4.21
Is a 3 part install able version on the forum too. It runs but installs "connections". I wasn't able to set it up to send or recieve MMSes tho.

Yeah, it messed up all connections setting ... I had to do the setup from scratch ... you have to get your operators settings for both GPRS and MMS

I am also looking for a working tool, well at least i found a installable (not in rom) version of EzOS 2.5...
MfG, Michael

Finally I got the Arcsoft MMS-Composer working.
It was necessary to install also the camera dll, even if the qtek1010 doesn't have a camera.
(compare topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=7466)
Sending MMS runs now very fine, but i still can't receive them.
does anyone know why?

Home-cooked 1.72.902 upgrade package (1.72.00/1.17.00) T-Mob

I just put together the following pieces
OS 1.72.00WWE
Radio 1.17.00
ExtROM 1.72.902
"CountryCode" = TMOBILE
All configured for T-Mobile NL
Plz. Post any comments
(Plz. note this thread replaces http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11781 )
8-11-2004 20:57 GMT: New version V2 uploaded.
I added a small archive containing the changed ExtROM files to solve the earlier reported errors (not updating ExtROM version and not making IIWPO un-installable).
Comment on IIWPO and making it un-installable: After having customized & installed IIWPO, you will have to do one of the following to make it un-installable if youre using the 1.72.902 ExtROM:
a. Another hard-reset
b. Running Version_172_902.cab from the ExtROM
NOTE: This thread is being replaced by
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=68652#68652
Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am d/l'ing right now and will be installing shortly...
One request... You might want to include the cab for setting up IIWPO in case someone is installing it into the phone.
edsub Thanks.
Question tho. Can I use this for T-Mobile USA and does it fix the MMS problem ?
asking because the version says NL, isnt that the Netherlands country code ?
Thanks again
Well from first look everything seemed ok.
THese are a few of the things I have noticed since loading.
1. The ext rom version # doesn't show up in the info
2. If you use the IIWPO then it still shows in the remove list
3. The new apps from the 187 version will not install no matter what you do. (I have tried adding the ver # in the Reg, both 902, and 187 (not at same time)) Niether worked.
These are the few things that I have found since loading. If I find any more I will loet you know. Other than these I think you havea winner here!
I was wondering about the streaming MMS, the new bluetooth stack, and some of the other new versions of software that came in the 181,187 packages, and why you didn't include or update to them? Was there some incompatibality issue?
Thanks and great job!

Is SRS included?
SRS is not included due to the fact that I don't see any use for it personally. Since it is an ExtROM installer, you could add it yourself.
The NL is only there because some sdetting are more or less specific to the Netherlands. I had feedback on my earlier 1.72.901 package that it worked for other countries (incl USA) as well. Be prepared that the date format will be dutch by default (easy to change via settings though).
Also MMS is suposed to be working (but I have not tried it due to lack of interest in MMS)
The ExtRom# is not showing because some bug in the Version_172_902.cab. Working on that now.
IIWPO not showing in the remove programs list is a bit more difficult than it seems if you install for the first time. Normally you would boot up the device with new rom. IIWPO is NOT installed at this point. Once you have customised & installed IIWPO, you will have to do ANOTHER hard-reset (ie run the ExtRom contents again) to disable the uninstall. You could force this by hand first time to re-run Version_172_902.cab after installing the customised IIWPO. BUT as this cab is not OK, it wont work anyway. Working on that now.
I did not find the time to look into the new O2 apps. If someone finds a solutiuon here, I am more than happy to includew it in a new version.
For the streaming MMS, the new bluetooth stack, and some of the other new versions of software that came in the 181,187 the basic reason is lack of time. I dont know what 'extra' new there is on bluetooth in the O2 builds? OS Rom 1.72 allready has an updated BT stack that fixes most open issues. I have no experience (& interest) in MMS / streaming MMS . . .
I suppose the issue with TomTom locking up without GPS enabled is not solved with this rom ?
I know: wishful thinking..........
@Pleun: Nope. I WISH I would have solved that one!!! FYI: I tested he new TomTom GPS 3.07. It doesnt solve any locking issue and next to that makes my Headset react very slow. Also the 'Bluetooth GPS' option that is supposed to solve the locking has gone, at least with my installation. Not advisable. I reverted back to TomTom GPS 3.03.
@all: I solved the issue of not setting the Ext Rom version and making IIWPO non-uninstallable. New version V2 will be up in 10mins (incl. incremental fix for all that downloaded the version from yesterday).
New V2 is up now. See first post in thread.
Plz keep posting comments to make this upgade better

I feel like my MDA2 is a little bit slower to respond not sure why! I added PocketMVP, Belkin Bluetooth GPS, Resco Explorer 2003 V5.0 and .NET Compact Framework 1.0 SP2 for Pocket PC 2003.
I am having problem with Belkin BT GPS; I got it to bond, detect the COM port (COM5) and baud rate(4800) to use but my MDA2 hangs up and had to soft reset. Any idea why?
I will try to install one by one and see what's causing it and report here.
edsub thanx for me it works great its a great improvement!
machine seems faster and no more lock-ups.
Keep up the good work (ill be following you)
p.s only one thing my battery seems to give me no more than 4 hours of on-time
4 hours is very different from my (and others!) experience. The 1.72 rom should even improve battery life.
My battery lasts for about 1,5 days (not measured but recalled from my memory) with approx 1-1.5 hours on the phone and bluetooth permanently switched on . . .
were can I download this rom from?
from the first msg in this thread : RUU172902WWE_eDsuBsofT V2.exe
Hi me again, dont want to sound stupid but I've tried both Opera and Explorer and cannot find any executable file in the first post. Normally it appear in some sort of info box but none to be seen on this thread and the link to the previous one!?!?! Is this something to do with XP SP2?

You cannot download it as a guest! If you are a member of this forum you have to log-in before you can see the file you want to download. That's what I encountered before so just try logging in first.
Good luck!
THank you very much superperry. Should have registered before but was always too lazy.
I have put together rom upgrade 1.72.903
This thread can be closed. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=68652#68652 for the new one
Edit: The new upgrade files are now available (see refered post)
An error need help please
I downloaded the files then followed the instruction below but now I get error
the flashing process
first the devicedata is obtained from the device, with HimaGetDeviceData.exe, this gets the operatorname, and language/country code from the extended rom, sector 2 of the BDK.
Then a tool 'HimaClearJumpCode' is executed, which erases the jump at the start of the kernel. causing the bootloader to start at next reboot.
the upgrade tool then connects to the bootloader of the xda, via serial over usb. ( port \\.\WCEUSBSH001 )
warning do not just run the 'HimaClearJumpCode' program, it will erase part of your OS rom, after which you will have to repair your device by running an entire upgrade again.

I tried this on my XDA II with the 2.06 2003SE ROM and found a problem - could someone else let me know if they have the same problem...
After installing I reset my device. After the reset, I found that I couldn't select any of my other input panels other than the default Block/Letter recognisers or the built in keyboard. IntelliPad (Phone Pad) and MessageEase were in the list but when I selected them it just switched to the default keyboard.
Can anyone help?
I've found the same problem with Intellidialler but finally managed to get Calligrapher working and never drew the connection with voice command. On top of that, there was an error the first time I tried the 1.5 upgrade setup and now if I try setting up 1.5 again it states that "No previous version of Microsoft Voice COmmand US PPC 1.50 was not found on this machine. The setup cannot continue" (yes you read the double negative right it's not a typo) I've tried uninstalling 1.0 and 1.5 and reinstalling to no avail. If anyone has an idea about either of these problems please share...
Hey pole_vaulter1,
I had exactly the same problem (No previous version etc).
It can be solved by copying the .cab file in c:\program files\microsoft voice command\ onto your xda\imate\mda and running the cab file from there.
Hope this helps.
Craig.
Craig,
Thanks a bunch - worked perfectly. I really should have thought of that myself but I suppose that's what a forum is for. Now if I could only get my Tengo and Intellipad to show up instead of the keyboard it would be perfect (until the next upgrade,tweak, software, etc.)
THANKS,
Travis
Craig,
in my case the installer does not create the \program files\microsoft voice command\ directory. Can I extract the cab file from the msi?
G'day Eddy,
I'm assuming you have 1.0 or 1.1 installed on your ppc.
Do you install files to another location? The file that went into the directory I mentioned is ... "Microsoft Voice Command.PPC420_StrongARM.CAB". You might be able to search your pc for that file?
As for extracting the cab from the msi - no idea sorry
Hope you find it.
Craig.
Craig,
no, I did not have version 1.0 nor 1.1. I got the impression that you installed without a previous version.
G'day Eddy,
No, I had the exact same problem as Travis a couple of posts up where I installed the upgrade, it gave me an error at the end of the setup on my ppc saying I already had voice command already installed (even though you had to have it installed for the upgrade to work) so I uninstalled it on my ppc - soft booted it to make sure it wasn't still resident, tried to re-install it and it gave another error saying that I didn't have the necessary software installed (version 1).
I'm not sure if you can buy version 1 of the software anywhere anymore but from other posts, apparantly handango will only let you buy it if you are a US or Canada resident.
Sorry for the bad news for you.
Craig.
Cab file MSVC 1.50
I found the cab file. Just copy it to you're device. :lol:
Dutchie,
could you mail this cab file to me or did you extract from the msi file?
@Dutchie - do you have any problems with any of your SIP's?
The second I install it from the CAB file I'm unable to select either IntelliPad or MessageEase for my input methods.
If yours is working then I'm wondering what I've done wrong!
No Wifi or Wordlogic after MSVC :-(
SH..... no WIFI or Wordlogic after I installed 1.5. I uninstalled it, and they work again. Anyone having the same problem with Voice command??? :?:
Does 1.0 the same??
I had quite a few problems after installing Voice Command 1.5. MS Reader would not run (out of memory error) and Calligrapher would not work either (still apeared in the bottom right) but only keyboard would load when Calligrapher chosen.
If I disabled Voice Command 1.5 (as opposed to removing it) everything was fin again.
From another forum I found that the problems I was experienceing was related to plugins in the Today screen (I had the Sprite monitor programming running). When this was removed, Calligrapher kicked back into life and Voice Command 1.5 worked fine.
MS Reader still gave the same out of memory error, but I found that if I added a shortcut in the Startup directory for MS Reader and made sure it loaded first then it would work fine after that.
Hope this helps
Mike

Interestingly, I have a similar problem, but I haven't touched MS Voice Command. I've had to make Intellipad my default input method, even though I use Fitaly more often. Once I change from Intellipad to anything else, I can't go back to Intellipad, or anything else, for that matter...

Finally Arabizer working on Magneto WM 2005,

1. Etisalat Settings for mnet & MMS
(everytime you install them they somehow crash the original DB of messaging where you will not be able to open your mesages anymore untill you do a format
2. and most importantly Arabic reading writing
after long time spent to fix those problems i finally got them working, see screen shoots
yeah ok , great but how u fixed the issues ?

Post a cab or tell us what you modified in the registry!!!
Waiting, thanks! :?
Oh something else I noticed the radio rom is 1.08.00, can you dump it?
PC) folder, take a copy of your registry after pasting the file & before softreseting the the device, then reset your device, if it will ask you then if you want to run few DLL files acept all of them, then take another copy of your registry & store it in a differant file, now go to your programs & you'll find arabizer file there in which one of them is english name, another one is arabic as '7ayarat & the 3rd one is arabic letters but mirrored in reverse, this will be always your indication if arabic is now working fine, click on this file, it will load couple of other DLLs but will give you some error message about an AOP????? file, don't mind it, now got to your control panel, (Setting) of your mobile & go to the settings Tab, again it will ask you to load some file.cpl say yes, soft reset your device with a software for soft reset not through the pen, then it will load, if you get an error about some file couldn't be loaded just reset few times & it should work, if you lost you signal in gsm, load the first registry file & softreset your mobile again, it will ask you to load some dll file again accept them then go to the settings to load the cpl file, then reset , if this doesn't work load the second resitry file & do the same proccess untill the file with the names reversed is corrected, now enjoy arabic on your system.
اود التنبية على انني لست مسؤلا عن اي مشكلة تطرأ على جهازك و العملية متعبة جدا
PS. if some get this way working for him i please him to put it in a simplified way because unfortunatly i have too little time to spare on rewriting it in an organized way, but once it worked i had to post it here because this is the best site in the world for PPC's & they deserve the best
Thanks mate I'll give a try later on
now that's interesting , thank u
anyone tried it guys am intrested to know
i think the secret is in the registry integrity & the file loading proccess, if you load the arabic files first after reseting the device they will affect the memory or the gsm loading, specifically the file CPROG.EXE which don't get loaded correctly, actually this is how i found i can fix arabic if i only get it loading after cprog & not before, thats why you put the files manually without the setup file so after you reset the device & when it asks you to load the dll files it will insert it in the registry after loading the cprog not before
guys i heared someone tried it withought backing up the registry & it worked perfectly fine, remaining only is the camera & record button & this should be it for me
i think the camera is the last problem , buttons are working fine 8)

sadly it didnt work for me,the device kept hangings on the splash screen,I tried it with wireless on and off, i did hard reset 5 times (2 with clear registery option) but nothing worked,I also upgraded to Radio 1.17 but still didnt work,I couldnt find out what's going wrong (I get prompt to overwrite 3 files while copying them into windows folder) WM2005 1.50h, Radio 1.14 then 1.17
well am not sure but regarding the hard reset only do the clear registry hive option without the format,
hi guys!
we are working for the localize Himlaya WM5.0 to Chinese and Japnese.
On the previouse OS, we need Font and registry, and also need wince.nls which support to encoding to our languages.
without replacement wince.nls, the inbox and IE cant encode to ours.
Usual, we got the wince.nls which has our lamguge support from the device of Japanese or chinese, or take from SDK emulator, or make it ourseleves with MS Platform Builder.
Till the version of WM2003se, easy to replce it.
But new OS of WM5.0, replacement of wince.nls can not be effected, even it was replaced firmly. the OS seems to be ignor that!
@On the Himalaya WM5.0, Some version such like 1.6b, 1.6h, 1.6i can get encooding with new wince.nls, but other version of WM5.0, it was not be able...cant find the reason yet.
@On the Blue Angel WM5.0, also it was ignored by OS
@On the Jasjar just we got, also it was ignored..........
We need find some solution of this system which ignore the replacement of wince.nls.
i already work for that more than 5days ........
I think to localize to Alabian, you guys will have same problems.
Example some of you can replace wince.nls, some of you can not get it.
so if you got some information, please exchange it about that, of course we also let you know if we got it!
Thanks guys!
following is our thread about localize to Chinese / Japanese..
You may know what happened on new OS.

yes. I am using WM5 1.60C WWE, I can not replace the wince.nls in rom with new one.
this is again a simplified version of installing arabic in your WM2005, just install both attached cabs in there sequence & everthing should be working fine
PS am not resposible if it crashes your device but so far it haven't crashed min
to Replacement wince.nls
PLS install this cab,
and place your wince.nls onto \Temp folder
then soft reset. you can replace wince.nls

its the same as my earlier version but before people comlaint about arabic keyboard not getting installed & the need of using a 3rd party arabic keyboard for it to work, also some people had trouble over writing few files & so HOPFULLY this makes the installation far more easier untill Mr Imaginet company decides to develop a fully intergrated 2005 arabizer
Imaginet already created the arabizer for 5.0, but they didn't release it yet as you can see in the JasJar arabized version, we have a new built of arabizer

Dopod 838 Pro - Telstra

Need some advice folks. Currently on an assignment in Australia and have just upgraded my Cingular 8125 to a Dopod 838 Pro. I'm with Telstra. Problem is any time I reboot the phone, the Network Wizard executes and errors out. Fine. I manually load Network settings but then i find out a couple of hours later that my manual settings have just disappeared.
I've scoured this site and see that I can do a variety of things, including loading the latest JasJam ROM. Regardless, whats the issue and short of doing a ROM upgrade (did plenty on my 8125, so it doesnt frighten me) what can i do?
Please advise.

Theres a file on DopodAsia's wedsite for Tesltra users, it enables newer settings. You put it in your MyDocs folder on the Dopod, and basically boot up. It uses the file, updates Network Wizard and will work properly. Its due to Tesltra's codes changing and the launch of NextG.

You wont be able to get these files unless you have a dopod serial to register with. I would suggest maybe you flash the newest telstra rom instead of the 838

Thanks folks for so many rapid responses... I was able to get the Network Wizard "fix" from Dopod's Australian service center yesterday. Unfortunately, I purchased the phone from ebay and the previous owner had already registered the serial number, so it's not letting me re-register. I've called Dopod directly to proces my registration, but they've not called me back yet.
simon_darley: will that .cab file set all the required settings on WM6? (I am considering upgrading to WM6, and a Cab file with all the Telstra settings would be nice and easy)
Does it add any of the Telstra software?
telstra aust cabs
the previous cab was the old one from the original rom released when the phone was sold and was incomplete so far as mms and other settings.
attached here is the latest from a new imate rom compulsory for telstra users and in conjunction with telstra proposed phone/data upgrade of their system should work more effectively.
i also use the telstra recommended imate radio upgrade 1.38.30.1 i think it is.
all of which runs perfectly now on wm6 including the wm6 media streaming which imate wm5 requires pvplayer as ms didnt release media streaming until wmK.
so now it works perfectly with foxtel video streaming and in 2 wks should allow simultaneous voice data connectivity which the telstra hw upgrade shouldfix for us.
i also include the my place cab which allows foxtel and videos to stream without using the download mb limits. so if u access foxtel via my place over next g it doesnt count towards the mb usage.
i have all the cabs from the upgrade and post them here for what i used only but in reality u may only need 1 or 2. i have all but installed only 5.
the ext rom in full is on xda dev if u want to download. i dont really know wot the other 3 do so installed and didnt cause any harm.
hmmm something odd nxt post should contain attachments... lost wifi...! bak soon

Running Office Mobile on a StarTrek having the original WM5 OS

Dear All,
after having tested the various WM6 solutions provided by Erofich (who did a great job, chapeau!), I lastly decided to revert to the original WM5 OS, since I prefer to operate my StarTrek mobile in my mother tongue, which is German.
However, what I would like to have anyway, is the current version of Office Mobile, since DocumentsToGo has still problems with the docx-files from Word, even if its vendors are praising their product as being "100% compatible" with MS Office 2007 - nothing but wishful thinking.
For these reasons, I would like to have Office Mobile, since, even if it may suffer from various limitations, it is at least compatible with files created by means of the desktop version of MS Office.
I have started several attempts to install Office Mobile 6.1 on my StarTrek, and I lastly succeeded, but, when I try to run e.g. Word Mobile, I get an error message, which reads like this: "cannot find pword.exe; make sure that all necessary libraries are present."
Needless to say that pword.exe is on the right place and that the relevant values (e.g. paths) in the registry appear to be ok.
I have also installed .net on my mobile, which took me more that 90% of the remaining free memory (what a horror!), but it didn't help either.
So, if somebody has a suggestion - all comments are welcome!
Thanks in advance,
The Wolf
You can try this...
Well, the problem I had before was I used the upgrade .msi files which naturally required the original version or version 6. I then downloaded a .cab file which showed the error that you had. This is what I did, before, when I was still using WM5. I installed the 6.1 version which had support for docx, as sed I had the same problem that you did, then I installed the .msi upgrade version. What it did was it repaired my previous installation.
I hope this helps you. It worked for me. Good luck.

I'm sorry if I can't upload the files, it seems that I may have lost it...
Hi Pampooh,
I was able to successfully repeat this under WM6 - here, it works indeed.
But I still fail to get Office 6.1 onto my StarTrek under WM5.
Thanks a lot anyway.
