There Is Something Not Right About This - MDA Compact II ROM Development

Hello every one ..
well .. as every one here .. i dream about having WM6 without getting a new mobile .. cuz i love the design of my mobile ..
you said here that there is no upgrade for imate jam ..

which is OK cuz we all know that it has only 64M of ram ..
but you also said that there is an upgrade for this mobile
which you call ( charmer ) .. well .. my mobile is imate jam 128M of ram .. and it's exactly like the one in the last pic ..
that makes it Charmer >> right ???
then i'm confused .. cuz I've downloaded all the files to upgrade to WM6 .. but it keeps saying .. (Upgrading: Error 224 : Device Not Responding )
so please help ..
how come that i have the exactly device of the photo for charmer:
but still .. i cannot upgrade ..
=============
thx to all

Both look the same.. but from what it seems, yours aren't exactly the same as the one shown, because that's a t-mobile.
Anyway, AFAIK, the Charmer has only been released in "T-Mobile MDA compact II" - Germany and UK only. So, chances are, yours is not a Charmer.
To determine that, the easiest way to check is, does your phone comes in WM5? or WM2003? Charmer starts with WM5, so, if yours is in WM2003, it is not a Charmer.
Check your Windows, the system information, check if it is IMAP processor 195MHz (Charmer spec)

actually mine came with wm2003 CE
then i guess i have to change my mobile ..
thx for your fast reply my friend ..

Again...
We have 2 versions of HTC Magician. One with 64mb ram (Mda Compact, Imate Jam, Qtek S100) and the other with 128mb ram (Qtek S110, imate jam new). The one you have is imate jam new. But you still have intel xscale bulverde 416mhz.
HTC Charmer has 128mb ram but TI Omap 850, 195mhz processor. Thats why your device IS NOT Charmer!

PPC 2002 - Service pack 3

Does anyone have any info about this update yet (service pack 3). Microsoft are saying that it will be supplied by the vendor. That means we should get it sometime in 2004 right?
updates?
How do we know if we are up to date?
do all XDA devices run on service pack 2 already, I got mine last september.
Also backing Martin1978 up, details please people!!

I think all XDA's are at least SP2. You will know SP3 when it arrives as it has Media Player 8.5 (looks much nicer). I would imagine it will appear in a ROM update at some point, though I'm sure it won't be the next one.
So r you saying that o2 OWES us a rom update and sp3 :evil: dudes!!!
I have WMP 8.5 on my XDA already, ROM v. 3.15.15
The update is few month old, I think newer ROM version have parts of SP3 already implemented...
I wouldn't go so far as to say they owe us. I would redeem them slightly though if we do get it.
It's good to hear WMP 8.5 is in 3.15. Perhaps they have begun to implement SP3 already.
Easy way to tell
If your default Today screen has the XP-esque "Bliss" theme (Blue sky and green field) then it's SP3. If you have the all blue background Microsoft Mobile then you've got SP2.
btw my previous ROM version 3.14.13 had WMP 8.5 as well and it was from 9/2002
Well, what do you know. Mine says it is 8.5 too, however, it doesn't have this skin:

Go to the compaq site & download SP3 for Ipaq its the same piece of kit for xda & clones.
Load upgrade to MM Card & run from there, whole process takes about 15 mins.
I ran this several weeks ago and all is well.
CARA.
Anyone else done this?
T-Mobile upgrade for SP3
All:
I got my upgrade directly from the T-Mobile site in the US.
I don't see any specific indication of SP3 other than the Media
Player version of 8.5.
Just providing another possible source of an upgrade ...

Thank for notice. Already is it redress.

I have always used this cpl, but recently (after upgrading to W2003SE) once I install this app and reset, it HARD RESETS! I have had this happen twice, (but only realized the possible relation later), and now I'm gun-shy to install it again.
Is anyone running this with the 2.02.t1, 2.06.00 ROMs and are NOT have problems.
I would like to turn off looking for GPRS when radio re-starts, (and just to establish a GPRS signal when you need GPRS), (makes searching for a GSM signal MUCH faster)
Alternately, does anyone know what the registry change is to cause the device to NOT look for a GPRS signal, (just a GSM signal) until needed?
Thanks
I have already used gprs tweak.
I didn't found that problem with hard reset even in 2.02t1 ,2.06 or 2.06 merge with 2.02t1.
Your problem may from other softwares which have conflicts with this program or may problem from ROM2.06
tumtum:
Thanks for replying. I installed the cpl again because of your article, and I'm happy to report its working well, (several resets and no Hard Resets). It must have been something else I was installing in the past as well, that was causing the Hard Reset.
Thanks again...
there is new version support SE ?!?!
No there isn't a new version, but it seems the older 2004.02.04 works with SE. I did NOT use the Media Player setting, but the GPRS seems to work fine. I'm using Radio 1.14.00 (I had radio 1.18.00 before), (in case that could have been a problem)...

External logo when opened

Hi all
I had lost my external logo (the small orange logo when opened) and lucky for me, a collegue of mine has the same phone so I plugged her phone to my pc and searched a bit to find out what it was called and where it was.
Of course, as I expected, it in the windows dir and it's called "LogoImg.bmp".
It was indeed missing in the Cingular rom on mine.
Downloaded a logo, converted it to bmp, sent it to my phone in the windows dir
ET VOILA.
Image must be bmp and 128X128.
Maybe u knew maybe u didn't.
So have fun
Greetz
Djslash
I don't know if I understand what you mean... You mean, when you open the phone, on the external screen will be displayed the logo? I have Qtek 8500 and when I open it, external screen is just blank (black). No matter if I put there any 128x128 LogoImg.bmp or not. Can you search in registry for a key, which contains LogoImg.bmp ? Would be great to have a logo even on Qtek 8500..
In the other hand, I wonder how it is possible, coz WM5 doesn't support external screens on clamshel phones..
edit: yeeey, it really works dude!!!!!! THANKS A LOT!
WOW! Thanks a lot, man. Now I have real Star Trek

Now I have there my girlfriend ^_____^ 사랑해 ^^ Just sad that the bmp take too much space.. But good way to save space is to convert them into 16 colours scale. No big difference. Just sad it doesn't support JPG or animated GIF
Thanks
It works with my 8500
excellent works on cingular rom)
worked on my Cingular 3100 also...
i also found the registry key for the cingular backdrop in the start menu... but i'm planning to post it with some other keys i found for tinkering...

Interesting.... do u think we can have it in english??
oh my god,.
greaaat,. but i couldnt understand the language,. ;p
i will say that XDA atom is really "the mighty atom" when wm6 ROM installed on my device,. ;D
come on rom cooker,.
chaiiiyooo,.. ;p
you need to buy the rom to download it.
I hate this kind of people.
Yes they have wasted their time to make it.
But they not have any license to sell it.
Why don't make it free and make a donate site or something
rather than ask people to buy it.
and more hate its many user are promoting this rom.stop it okay until its released free ^^;
They sale rom? they dont have any license to sell it
If I hv Atom Exec, I will release Free WM6 ROM and also the kitchen for you guys, so you can create your own rom and mesh around with it...

Sorry for my OT post.
O2 Germany will release the "XDA Atom Life" as XDA Comet soon.
Unfortunately good documentations about romcooking for this devices are very rare.
Is your kitchen usable with this device, or only for the Exec devices ?
Some hints about tools and howtos for this device would be nice.
Thanks for help

Hi Helmi I know your name for a long time . Of course if you can help us to cook the WM6 rom to ATOM is much appreciate . If you have any idea would you mind to contact Jiggs to let us get the free rom . And don't let people who use the tools & knowledge from XDA developer earn money !!!!!!!!!!
O2 atom exec wm6 english
this rom avaiable in english version not??

WM2003

Does anyone know if it is possible to cook WM2003 for PPC into a Hermes rom?
Before you go telling me what an idiot I am, or saying why would anyone want to, it's just a simple question.
The concept is this, WM2003 uses much less program memory to run the OS.
I know that the availability of programs for 2003 is more limited than WM6 or WM5, but the main programs that I use are available in all 3 OS versions.
Has HTC made a WM2003 phone in the past and could it be ported to the Hermes?
Thanks
(edit) it looks like at least the Himalaya was 2003 - is it possible to port this rom?
The memory management of WM2003 and WM5/6 is totall different!
WM2003(se) doesn't have persistent memory, WM5/6 have. With WM2003(SE)
everything is stored in RAM,

with WM5/6 data is stored in ROM
see the difference?
You can study the article here
ok
well that kind of explains things but it still leaves some questions, like how the HTC Wallaby, it can run wm2003 or wm5 or 6, it has 2 chips a 128m and a 64m.
Another question that arises is can the OS wm2003 be loaded to just the rom on the Hermes.
I understand that this right now is simply a lesson in "could it be done," and I am not a programmer or a software developer, and I don't build pda's so I don't really understand how they are designed to work, but if it could be done, and I would have to think that it is possible for someone who know what they are doing, it could provide a sleek device with plenty of speed and program memory.
Maybe it's a pipe dream, but I think it is at least worth exploring.

It is. i don't think developers wanna go back to build a 2003SE ROM for a WM5/6 device. The mentioned devices like the Blue Angel have the hardware to RUN other OS Ask the developers how it works.
ok
OK sounds logical, thanks for the input.
