If I understand correctly this is a ROM Upgrade and not a CAB file, can I just upgrade the correct NBF file (IE when I upgraded my radio.nbf) without having to do all 3?

If yes can I use my current files I used which work for upgrading the radio.mbf BaUpdate etc?

Thank you for clarifying
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] dah54:
Let's see if I can answer some of the questions that haven't been yet.

The file you download, is a compressed file, it needs to be uncompressed (or unzipped) when you do this it will create a folder where the files will be placed from the compressed file. This folder is the folder that you must place the files in. and where you will find the the update program. The name of this folder, and it's location depends on the program you used to uncompress the files, and what options you chose.

The files will only update the Windows CE portion of the ROM, so yes you can only update one part of the ROM at a time. And some of the files, in the extended ROM may not be needed. Right after the ROM upgrade, you will go through the screen aliment, at this point a window will pop up telling you your device will be customized, it is possible to soft reset at this point and skip the running of the cabs in the extended memory.

HP Bluetooth Headphone and WMP10

Ever since I have performed the rom upgrade and therefore the new WMP ver. is 10, I can no longer control the tracking through my HP Bluetooth Headphone, unlike when i used them with the WMP9.

Did anyone encounter the said problem and if so. is there any known solution?

Furthermore, I would appreciate if someone could share his experience regarding the control of the bass and trebble levels when hearing music with the WMP through the HP Bluetooth Headphones? I have tried (with no success) using the DSP and the udaeq app. which were published here in the website.

SX66 ROM update complete

I feel kinda silly after completing this update. In reading the directions, I thought the files had to be copied to the device and run from there. For the life of me, I could not find the folder that contained a ROM image - only the ExtendedROM folder. Executing from the desktop makes a lot more sense now that I think of it, and cleared up the confusion. I think I just tried to make it more complicated and difficult that it really was.

So all is well, WM10 with the MSN video download service seems interesting enough. I think it'll be nice for long plane flights and foreign hotels without English language TV stations.

I'm going to poke around in the coming days and see what other fun and interesting things you've got here. I can say that this update has increased the value of the SX66 to me.

Finally a properly working device !

Really great :D to have my MDAIII finally working properly ! I was stressing T-Mobile (NL) to release the update for more than 2 months! They really don't cary about customer satisfaction. :shock:

I upgraded from 'signature' having spent a lot of reading on this great forum! I experienced actually no problems upgrading due the following links:

Getting Started Nice well readable English .....really the place to start!

Extended Rom Kitchen To get an idea if i needed it. It automates the installation of program*.cab file. Tried just running the cabfiles first

Radio Upgrade 1.10

Camera restored There was no camera since it was based on a Siemens Siemens SX66

Upgrade Bluetooth stack (after TomTom 3.0x reinstall the BT stack else you might be (like me) having BT problems

-Wlan with pre shared key Tkip works great after installed wavedev_wlan.cab

-Camera works great

-No double wlan/gprs icons so i used a fixed version

-Sound from the speaker is (really) loud enough

So really a happy and donating "xda-developers" reader/user !! 8)

Question about updates and change language

Hi All,

I'm working on my first update and I have some question just to make sure I do not destroy my PDA2k !!!

Please any help will be very much appreciated

What I'm trying to do with my PDA2k is to change language from ITA to WWE and possibly at the same time updates to the latest OS, Radio and put the appropriate Extended ROM. Then my plan is to update the BT, reactivate the Camera and probably cooked my Extended ROM

My current configuration is in my signature

This is what I have done:

- I stared with the ba_1.33.51_with_wmp10_cooked_by_mamaich_final.rar

- Added the radio_.nbf from the Radio 1.10.00.rar archive

- Added the ms_.nbf from i-mate_PDA2k_Arabic_13100_112_10600_SHIP

- Added the UpgradeTools

- Modified the EditFix.bat appropriately using my original DeviceData.txt (PH20B 0 B ITA A CDL__404 1.22.04 0 4 1.22.178 1.06.00 06.00)

- Run the EditFix.bat with no error

Now I'm ready (I hope) to run the BaUpgradeUt.exe, but I have some doubts:

- Is all that make sense or I need to start reading the wiki again from the beginning? :oops:

- Is the Extended ROM I selected the most appropriate one for me? I'm not interested into the arabizer. Should (or can) I then use the one from i-mate_PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP?

I apologize for the long message

Thank a lot for any suggestion anyone can give me

Re: Question about updates and change language

- Yes it makes sense, and you did good... ;)

- Yes, you can use the imate Ext ROM as well...you only want the Arab if you speak that language, I think... Do not forget to run the xda3nbf tool again if you switch ext. roms before installing...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
You are doing great.

After the flash you need to do some clean up.

Flush your exteneded rom!

Open ext Rom, delete the arbic cabs, edit the config.txt, save, lock the ext rom and do a hard reset. Its all in the kitchen on wiki.

Check out what you want form that ext rom which you will find under the cooked section. Would go and get the link but the site is slow today. You can add a few apps like the zip which are in the avlible applications.

:D Ok guys still could,nt find the link to the 133.51. final ( and yepi read everything and non of the links worked to it so I wonder if the people sying it must be me actually test.........lalala oh Whatever....sorry waffle mode) so downloaded 133.10 the SX 66 one and all went pukka roony... :D except the quick edit to sort out the country error (cheers WIKI) and reinstall the camera cab.WM 10 works pukka also upgraded to 1.10 radio rom with no probs and removed the o2 active ****e and my xda2s is alot more stable.. also with the BT 3900 upgrade i am not getting as much if any crackling with my Jabra BT800 any more well maybe a tad but its comparable to that on my Motorola V3.. Still got the same no audio prob when the phone is not used for a while and I think this has something to do with some sort of power save feature or something like that because when i am using it constantly its fine.. Oh one thing just wondered if any one has been using the wired headset when this has occured and whether that worked? :?: :shock: Anyways i'm alot happier now with my upgraded roms so thanks guys..

WMP10 Mobile protected files - what am I doing wrong?

I have a Cingular SX66 with WMP10 Mobile installed and it seems to be running smoothly (thanks Nuno!).

I've tried downloading music from MSN Music Store, and syncing as well as MSN Video Downloads, plus downloaded TV shows from my Windows Media Center PC all with the same results... problems in syncing due to protected files. Huh? I thought that Media Player 10 Mobile was going to correct all this.

My dialog box says... "Windows Media Player cannot synchronize the protected file. Protected files cannot be converted to the required quality level or file format."

Any idea as to how to correct this?

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] TheGadgetGuy:
I haven't had time to test your problem on my own, but based on your complete discription of the problem, maybe the issue is the conversion of the files (making them smaller).

Try syncing an audio file, but FIRST, open Windows Media, go to Options, Devices, pick your SX66, then Properties. Deselect 'convert as necessary'.

Try syncing one of your downloaded audio files now. I'm willing to bet that it works.

Good luck.

Hi,

I'm running:

OS: 1.33.51 (With WMP10)

Radio: 1.10

Bluetooth: 3900

Does anyone else suffer a problem with it just "locking up" for a minute at a time?

I find it only ever happens after I turn it on. I'm using Nice Start (I will try and do a test without that at some point) but after unlocking it I find it often just freezes on the today screen and NOTHING works (buttons or touch screen) for upto a minute (always same length of time) then it works just fine.

I had this with 1.31.50 as well but not any of the WMP 9 original ROMs.

Am I just "blessed" or does anyone else get this/have any idea what it is?

Many thanks in advance.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] tdjgordon:
A little bit better (re WMP10 and protection)

Robert...

Well you are at least partially correct. If I turn off the conversion in WMP10 on the PC, then at least it syncs over to the Pocket PC. If you haven't been there yet go to: http://www.msnvideodownloads.com the new site for video for Mobile Media Centers, Pocket PC's and Smart Phones (that have WMP10 Mobile). There is a basic membership for free, and a premium content for $19.95 per year. Try setting up and running the basic membership and see if you can sync and then play the video files (which are **all** protected.)

We'll :( darn! At least on my SX66 with WMP10 it did copy over all the protected audio and video from my play lists. But... none of the protected content will play. Videos that I have recorded on my Windows Media Center PC will play, a video from a DVD like one of the M*A*S*H will play, my own commercial music CD's will play, but none of the MSN downloaded audio/music or video's will play.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] TheGadgetGuy:
Well, I just downloaded a protected video from MSN, and was able to watch it on the SX66. According to Microsoft, you cannot transcode (downconvert) protected video files for playback on your phone.

In order for the video to play, I had to DEselect the 'convert files as necessary'.

I'll play around with it again later, but that's what I've found so far. Good luck.

1.33.51 Extended ROM ???

I have run the upgrade and everything is fine thanks to the input from everyone in this thread and to the Wiki board.

One question though -- several persons are showing their extended rom cab builds and I think its great for me to add to my imate .22 release I would much rateher get a new extended ROM using this .33.51 build. Is this currently possible and can anyone post the ms_.nbf file if one exists. It is not included in the ba_1.33.51_with_wmp10_cooked_by_mamaich_final.rar file.

thanks

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xanth:
Re: 1.33.51 Extended ROM ???

I'm afraid it doesn't as such - There isn't an "official" Extended ROM as such because all the Extended ROM is is the programs/settings that are installed after a hard reset and everyone who's been posting their Extended ROM's config files has customised it themselves.

I'd give you my Extended ROM files, but unless you want Orange UK GPRS/MMS settings (my provider) and my particular applications installed it really won't do you any favours.

Best bet is really to read the WIKI regarding cooking your Extended ROM as that way you're customising it the way you want. I was surprised at how straight forward it actually is.

Good luck!

P.S. To everyone else: A few posts back I asked if anyone else had problems with this version (1.33.51) freezing their BA. It was just my SD card. I found everytime it froze if I popped the SD card out it instantly unfroze. I have since reformatted it and waiting to see if it happens again.

You may want to take a look at that last file, FixCamera_18157.sa.cab I believe that is an *old* file and is taking your camera software backward. What I believe you want is the Patch Camera file, from ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.co..._1_22/Cabs/Patch/Camera_Patch_10080401.sa.CAB which should update the camera to version 2.21 (Build 17576)

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xanth:
Yes - Just copy the existing files from Extended_ROM out to your PC or somewhere else and backup them up. If you want to move back, simply erase your "new files" from the Extended_ROM and copy the original files back.

Or even better if you have the actual original NBF ROM image you could just re-flash it, but that way would require a hard reset (total loss of data)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] dah54:
OK I'll bite, then what is the Version and build of your Camera after running your FixCamera_18157.sa.cab update? And where can I get your version of FixCamera_18157.sa.CAB? When I run FixCamera_18157.sa.cab I am given a Version 2.11 and a build 18157. To me the versions are the primary indicator of newness, and 2.21 should be newer than 2.11.

BUT, when i extracted both patches in the kitchen i came up with the feelling someone f'd up. the file date is newer, the file is bigger, in hex dump the last part of the file has clear text that leads me to believe it has more funtions.

Thus i posted it under patches with a note that and text (wiki). So its up to you, me i go for date stamp and higher build, its a free world

The answer to audio/video file license protection on WMP10

Yea! I think I finally found the answer as to why downloaded copy protection on audio and video files does or does not work.

First my struggle: 1GB SD card that was previously used for Pocket PC applications, data files, and WMP *9* music and video files. As I've posted before, after the installation of WMP10 I ** could not ** get downloaded music for stores like MSN Music, Napster, etc. and downloaded video from the new MSN Video Downloads to first of all sync (thanks to "TheGadgetGuy" for solving that one), and then second to play (always a protected license issue).

Now the success: I took an older 128 MB SD card, inserted it into my Siemens SX66 and used the Pocket PC File Explorer to "delete" *** everything*** off the old SD card (sort of like formatting the card). I launched "Explore" from the Microsoft Active Sync 3.8 application and checked for hidden invisible files and folders on the SD card to make sure it was completely blank.

I then set up the device options in the desktop version of WMP10 so that it **would not** convert audio and video syncs between the desktop WMP 10 and the "storage card"

I then synced all types of media files over to the Pocket PC - purchased and downloaded audio and video files, a few tracks from my own personal CD's and lots more - It all works!!

The bottom line? Start with a fresh, clean, blank, SD card and all is well.

Or at least this worked for me.

Hope it works for you.
