Nice updates to this mini...

anyway, im still using the original version firmware, and find it perfectly running through my days.

But is there anything new, you all pros can tell me on those new upgrades, especially regarding on that radio version which much talked about through the pages...

Up to the last pages, i found out that, the latest Radio version is 1.14 and what improvements are actually exist on this new radio version, also what's new with the latest firmware?

Is it like my mini can run faster or what?

What about a RAM upgrade? Any possible action on it?

I'd like to have a 128Mb RAM ^_^

thanks to all pros and friends...

Hello KTA,

I am a newbie and i don't know whether upgrading the ROM to the version you explained above will change the language of my German xda O2 device to English? I really want to change the language.

Secondly, I don't know whether this link you posted ftp://xda:xda@xda-developers.com/Mag..._131_11200.exe is actually and English ROM, because i am looking for Ricardo's English Rom to change the language of my device from German to English.

I have looked everywhere, and all those rappidshare links don't work. Please can you upload some of those ROMs i can use to change my language of my device and still maintain an UNLOCKED SIM? Please i need it. Can anybody help me out here too?

Thank you guys in advance. I am in Cameroo and i need an universal sim phone.

Upgrade radio 1.13

Dear friends, I installed the latest ROM WWE 05 Cotulla, but now the radio is version 1.12, I'm in Italy and I have problems of low signal with vodafone.

I would like to upgrade the radio to 1.13, I saw that in the first place is' a procedure, but 'for bigram, which I do not use, and now I ask you' use this correct procedure?

Or put it in bootloader and the first update to the radio (1.13) and then replace the WWE 05

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] kta:
dinoalbert, yes if your Magician is not a US version you can go ahead and install the upgrade. The T-Mobile 1.13 ROM still uses the 1.12 ROM, so if you want to keep that ROM just skipt step 6 from my guide above.

To be honest if you're not bothered with numbers, I would stick with 1.12. No one reported any improvements with the 1.13 radio.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
Hi parklife,

If you're using the shipped rom, there are only 2 replacements to be done. Unfortunately I've got a very small bandwith, so it will take an hour or so to upload.

Bigstor really slows down your device?

I am about to make the step to bigstor. My only concern is: how much does this slow down my device? I understand that starting programs from Storage is slower then from RAM. But really significant slower? And is only the starting of programs slower slower or also working with programs?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
Dear pietrucci,

BIG Storage won't slow down your magician. Main Memory is the fastest type you'll get and BS is the same speed as your storage cause it is the same thing only more. Thus starting apps from storage is noticibly slower, but once running they load to main.

Happy?

oltp, thanks for the answer, but i was using the NL_11300_131_11200 that i download from ftp, just like it was instructed. still could not find 3 of them. i only changed 2 of them and it was failed to boot on my m500.

The upload is running to the ftp at magician. File is called Magician_TMO_WWE_BS113.zip. Will finish within 2 hours and 45 minutes. It is just a dump off my rom, with a modified splash offcourse.

Please don't forget to transfer your own id. This rom carries mine, so copy the first bytes of one of your own dump. I belief it is 420 (decimal) bytes, but the exact number can be found in various documents here at xda. Guess you've got one already.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] bravo261:
hey guys, i'm still running the 1.11 WWE and am wondering if the bluetooth configurations have changed at all.

start/settings/system/bluetooth settings gives me the screen with one incoming and one outgoing com port, while start/settings/connections/bluetooth gives the com port tab where absolutely nothing can be configured or added, much like the seemingly useless "devices" tab. is 1.13 the same, or a little easier to use? barely managed activesync a few times, and bluetooth GPRS is still elusive
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
I've got the idea that BT isn't changed much. Via the BT settings you can (un)check the passkey & default in-/out com port. Via connections you're able to define new in-/out com ports. Same as in 1.12 never been on 1.11 actually.

Rom seems pretty stable, but extra features ??
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] bravo261:
i don't want to say new features, but different ways to go about current ones. i've been trying to get bluetooth to do any freakin thing, and was searching the forums and read something about a guy going from 1.11 to 1.12 or so and not believing how difficult bluetooth was about com ports in 1.11. in my com port tab, you can not add anything, as in the drop down box is empty when you choose "new outgoing port" or "new incoming port". something about 1.12 changed what's available...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
It doesn't belong to this thread, but adding a BT device, goes via the devices tab->new. BT will start searching, course you've turned BT on before going to the devices tab. Works always with my BT GPS.

I was only trying to copy my ROM from my SD to my Desktop using command ntrw read myxdamini.nb1 F: where F is the drive letter of my sd card.

But I always get this message:

Usage: ntrw file drive:

then nothing happens....

what should I do now?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
Are you sure you're using the latest ntrw version?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] dinoalbert:
thanks for the reply. Im not sure if this is the latest ntrw ...its 32Kb dated 6/11/2205

its the ntrw I got from ths thread's first post by kta

@kta

I now have a 1.11 Rom version and already did the Big Storage some time back....so now I dont have the Ext ROM. You mentioned that If I upgrade my Mini to the latest ROM (1.12?) and radio to 1.13 .....I will get back the EXT ROM.

Now if I follow your procedure in your first post, will I be having the Big Storage again after everything in your procedure is done? Or should I start doing the Big Storage trick again (separate procedure)?

Thanks!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
the latest ntrw should be on the ftp, but I don't think that is your problem as you've used your version successful before.

When upgrading without BS patch you'll have the ext-rom back. To avoid that patch your nk.nbf for BS before upgrading or use a BS rom. The nk.nbf patching is described earlier in the thread about upgrading to radio 1.13 and probably you have to use MaUpgradeUtNoId instead off the MaUpgrade from the shipped rom.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] dinoalbert:
thanks oltp!

are you referring to your post in the first page...the one with 8 steps?

Now I am confused.....is your procedure different from kta's ? Is it a totally different procedure specially for existing roms with BS? Do I still need to follow kta's procedure before doing your procedure....or could I do your procedure directly without following first kta's?

May I aslo ask... in your procedure....how do you:

4. decode nk.nbf -> nk.nb1

5. hexedit header to correct ID from DeviceData.txt

6. replace pattern for bigstorage in hexeditor

7. encode nk.nb1->nk.nbf

Lastly....after step 8 (run ROMUpgradeUt.exe to upgrade CE image)....is it all done? Is that the last step after which my ROM will be upgraded already?

sorry for all the questions...just confused :)

thanks..
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] kta:
dinoalbert,

the ntrw I posted in my first post is the latest one, i.e. version 2.

The procedure I described in that post will give you a 1.13 ROM with BigStorage. No extra steps are needed. You will only get your Ext ROM back if you stop at step 4.

What oltp gave you on ftp is a 1.13 ROM that has already got the BigStorage hack on it.

If you decide to go for oltp's ROM, I think it is slightly more complicated as you would have to exract a ROM from your device (to get the first 416bytes) and then paste the 416bytes on oltp's ROM. Then you would be able to flash the ROM back to your Magician.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
dinoalbert,

Speaking for myself, I just followed the 8 steps from hlt on page 1. with the posted nbfdec.rar you can de&encode the nk.nbf. I think this is the easiest way with less risc than others. Apparently this seems not to work for everyone, see parklife eg, that's why I uploaded my own rom. Including BS patch, but yes kta is absolutely right you have to copy your own id on my rom. Bytecopy can do this trick for you.

Cheers, M
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] dinoalbert:

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Andre_Santarell:
thanks for your answer

i ask again:

is not different the 7 step?

8. Open your new nb1 file with a Hex editor (download the latest FREE version from http://www.hhdsoftware.com/hexeditor.html), locate the 02 00 00 80 00 20 and change 80 00 to b8 01 (at 3 locations in this version of ROM - not just 2)

for the 1.12 version ? thanks a lot
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
Hi,

This depends on your current situation & what you want to achieve. When you got BIG Storage now or don't want it you only need the new radio. Is BIG Storage a wish as well then go along with the rest of the steps & I guess you'll only need to replace the bytes twice, as you're on 1.12. Personally I favor hlt's method for BS with a shipped rom, no sd handling at all is faster too, no second dump no ntrw which takes much more time than unzipping a shipped rom & decoding the nk.nbf & encoding it again.

Upgrade question after using T-mobile UK official upgrade

Hi

I have both an MDA compact and an MDA PRO , both on T-mobile UK.

I have run the recently released official T-mobile UK s/w update from

NTRW uses this syntax:

Don't forget the : at the end. If you still got the same error, make sure you got the latest version from the ftp. Still not working, maybe you should try hlt's method on page 1. You won't have a backup from your old rom on disk, but it's up to you to decide whether you take that risk.

I did a TMO -> TMO BS patch so I took that risk, I advise a backup when you change provider or language.

I'm newbie in ROM upgrading. I recently bought a AD2P BT headset that seems to require ROM upgrade to 1.13.

My Magician is Dopod 818 with ROM 1.05.00 WWE. Radio 1.05.00

After reading this thread it seems that the upgrade process can be quite tricky.

1/ Is it safe to upgrade? In case of failure, can I rollback to my previous ROM? What is the worst case scenario? :wink:

Can my regular full backup (from ActiceSync) save me from the worst case?

2/ Is this ROM NL_11300_131_11200 an English ROM? I need English ROM.

Re: it seems easier just to decode nbf, make bigstorage patc

OK - just for absolute clarity - are these 8 steps ALL of the steps that are required to upgrade? Or do I still need to replace the first 416 bytes of this (new) ROM with the data from my old ROM?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
These 8 steps will do the trick. You don't need to copy the first 416 bytes because of step 5. When you skip step 5, then use maupgradeut_noid.exe twice instead of ROMUpgradeUt.exe.
