Hi all..

I tried to update but i had a bad luck.. It took forever and it's stuck at 2% for about 30 min.. Then, the computer resarted..

I tried to do it again but the CID-Unlock wont work anymore... If i choose no, then it will continue and stuck at 2% again...

Anyone know what to do?? I didn't have any backup...

Please help!!

Thanks!

Sorry if this has been asked before, but can one (or more) of you verify that when using push email, you receive vibrating alerts when a new email arrives while the device is in standby mode (i.e. both the backlight and the screen are off). Thanks.

I have one question about this ROM.

I have been running this ROM for about 2 weeks now and I have been wondering how to disconnect from an active GPRS/ EDGE session.

I think I used to be able to click on the connection icon and choose DISCONNECT as an option.

NOW I do not see that option anymore.

Does anyone have a workaround?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] jonazen:
This ROM has a better Connection Manager than the old one. Try pressing button one (upper left side of the phone above the volume slide control) to bring up the Connection Mgr. One of the new icons on it is normally disabled, but becomes enabled (and shows up in green) when you have an active data connection - tapping this will shut down your data connection, and then you can exit the Comm Mgr again.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Pmavrovic:
Thanks for the quick reply!

I will try that the next time I go online with the phone.

I really should have figgured that out already!

Nah...lots of little details to keep track of with these releases, and Microsoft has made an art out of creating user interfaces that are totally arbitrary, inconsistent and have features hidden and strewn throughout so that it may take years to find everything you'd like to know about.

That's why forums like this are so valuable -- they're like a big group therapy session for all of us who are completely addled by Windows Mobile. We get to take turns crying, gnashing our teeth and spilling our guts, and the rest try to cheer up and encourage the one who has the floor. Come to think of it...it's almost like a 12 Step Windows Mobile Recovery program...

I got my MDA today, for some reason my computer doesn't seem to like it and I think decided to kill it.

a) went to install the 2.17 ROM, ran the unlock util at the beginning, the unlock tool crashed midway

b) figured it had worked anyway, installed the ROM

c) got DATA CRASH SIM Lock when I rebooted with the SIM in (I've tried 2 cards)

d) tried reflashing with the original ROM, no luck

e) tried running the lokiwiz utility in all ways, shapes, and forms, no luck

Is there a way to fix this or am I returning it DOA

so finally the new rom is up and running

but i have 2 questions

1. The phone is not showing SIM numbers i want the phone to show the SIM number or a way to copy the numbers from the SIM to the phone

2. Now after upgrading the rom those this means the phone is being unlocked and can be worked on any network or it will be only on the tmobile network like before

and one more question i dont know if this is a right place to ask but i want to know how can i make the phone able to recieve and send files using the bluetooth connection and if this is a wrong place to ask the question then please refer me to the right section

Thanks for your advice and help

HOLY JESUS CHRIST! WOW that was interesting, I installed the rom yesterday and I can say I have never been in such suspense in my life... you guys remember how it feels when you take a plunge on a rollercoaster, well my heart was beating like that for all 15 plus mins of the instalation, thank God everything worked out, now my little bit of info to everyone, the only problem I experienced was that I tried to do a restore from a sunnysoft backup manager .exe file I had done, and I don't know exactly what went wrong, but my MDA would freeze at the start up screen, so I had to poke it for a while until I finally learned how to do a hard reset with the hardware buttons. Afterwards I installed everything manually and so far so good, thanks a lot bro, now I just await for A2DP.

My MDA Custom Rom DISLIKES

For the most part, I love the speed of the new MDA rom, especially the bootup time. However here are the things the bug me. Any suggestions anyone?:

1. Cannot remove battery indicatior on the top taskbar (though i found out how to get the bottom dock indicator back; leaving me with two battery indicators!)

2. The battery indicator replaces the time that used to be seen on top dock

3. Day and Date are now separated to two different lines (instead of one staight line taking up more space on the today screen and forces a scroll bar on the side

Old Rom: Monday, April 10, 2006

New Rom: Monday

April 10, 2006

Talk about ANNOYING

4. Cannot purposely disconnect from my GPRS connection (not wifi) - i was able to do this with the original rom

5. Wish it came with the OZ instant messenger (I have unlimited SMS)

If anyone knows how to fix any of these issues, please help :) (are there any other roms out there?)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] masr1979:
marscandybars, ok for question 1 & 2 look through the forums for a file called LVMTime.cab don't know where it's at exactly, but it gives you back your clock... downside is it removes your signal meter I think it was, haven't tried it myself. Question 3 & Question 4....ummm your on your own. And 5. I assume you have a data plan so why don't you download agilemessenger, it is WAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY better then the OZ messenger, plus it has google talk, XMPP (Whatever that is) and you can sign in to all services together...... well so on and so forth just try I think you will like it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] trigeek:
Re: My MDA Custom Rom DISLIKES

4. Hold down the "end" key for a few seconds. This will disconnect the GPRS, and it's a lot more handy than having to use the stylus.

5. You can get the OZ messenger out of the ext rom from the original t-mobile ship rom. You might be able to find the cab for it on the FTP site, too.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] marscandybars:
Re: My MDA Custom Rom DISLIKES

Has anyone by chance found LVMTime.cab? Or does anyone know how to get the day and date back on one line rather than two? One of the autoinstall cab files for the new rom separated the day and date into two lines and took the time off the top dock. Right before the autoinstall starts when updating to the new rom, you can see that the day, date, and battery are in the right positions. After all automated updates are done, thats when everything gets scrambled.

Custom ROM Problems

My device is a QTEK 9100. I was upgrading from the ROM my device shipped with:

ROM 1.1.7.5 9/22/2005

Radio: 01.01.10

Protocol: 4.0.13.16

ExtROM: 1.1.7.105

My carrier is TMobile, so I figured the xelencin TMobile custom rom that was built off of the latest QTEK would be a good bet for me. I ran the upgrade, letting it do the unlocking. The upgrade appeared to go smoothly, but when the device restarted, I didn't have an entry for my Radio ROM (GSM). I had a blank space where that would normally show. The device did the customizations and restarted, but still no Radio. No phone functionality, and it was very, very slow (5 seconds for any responses anywhere in the device). I could also not get an ActiveSync connection.

So, OK, no problem I think - I'll just go to bootloader and load the new QTEK 2.17 ROM - but then that one wouldn't load. I'm sorry, I didn't write down the exact error message, but basically it said I couldn't use the ROM on my device before it even really started to copy.

I had a pretty useless device at this point. I found someone who had a similar problem with a KJAM and this ROM (http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=267616) and he said he was able to go to the TMOBILE 1.8.10.2 ROM. So, I downloaded that one and got that one to work. So now I am at:

ROM Version: 1.8.10.2 WWE

ROM Date: 12/10/05

Radio Version: 01.09.10

Protocol Version: 4.0.13.20

ExtROM version: 1.8.10.104

I'd still like to get to an AKU2 ROM. Has anyone seen this before? Does anyone have any ideas?

pterodyne ( http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=267616 ) has since posted that he went to a later iMate ROM (2.16) and then was able to go the xelencin ROM from there.

Does this sound like a reasonable approach for me? Or should I just try the QTEK ROM or the xelencin ROM again?

Thanks for any help!

Another satisfied customer, as the flash went absolutely without a hitch on my MDA. Only one note or warning. I apologize if I missed this somewhere further up the thread, and I have since found a reference to it in another thread, but do NOT try to restore data, apps and settings from an SPB backup after flashing the ROM. Spb Backup actually warned me against restoring, because it recognized the flashed MDA as being a different device, but I ignored the warning and ended up with a device that booted essentially to a blank screen and then hung. After a hard reset using the CommMgr + VoiceRecorder button combination, I reloaded everything from scratch. Time consuming, but I'm back in full working order.

I just got my MDA and haven't installed the update yet, but I think I'd prefer a choice between either

a. A "generic" ROM without many new additions save those that aren't easy to obtain on your own (like Java)

b. A "deluxe" ROM with new additions

I have no idea what the ROM build process is, but if you're feeling ambitious, maybe you could create an install-wizard-like app - with checkboxes, etc. - that automatically compiles a ROM including whatever software the user checked off.

Hey all. I'm sure this gets asked quite a good bit but I am looking for some information on the Note 3 and it's current status of rom/root abilities. I have an S4 at the moment so I am fairly saavy with Samsung hardware and procedure at this point. I am going to assume that Verizon pushed out a locked boot thus killing everyone's ability to install roms and TWRP. If this is true, is there a specific build I should be looking for wen I go to get my phone? Also, what does the SafeStrap scene look like on this device? Is it relatively stable?

My exact scenario as well, my Note 3 came with THe latest firmware right before MJE, I forget, but regardless neither version could be rooted with Root De La Vega. I used Kingo, my knox is still 00x00 and I have safestrap installed and running the Hyperdrive ROM. If you are worried about the superuser app that kingo installs you will probably be prompted to update it anyway which will replace it with the play store version. I'm not sure why you'd be concerned, but I've seen some chatter about replacing the superuser app.
