1) G4 chipsets are build-in the newer Wizards, thy have IPL/SPL x.xx.001, G3 Wizards (the older ones) have IPL/SPL x.xx

DO NOT TRY to install a G3 Rom on a G4 Wizard and vice-versa, you will corrupt your Bootlader and your Wizard will be dead!

I left the IPL/SPL out of the G4 Roms because I didn't have those files at the time I made the Rom and also because I cannot test it because I have a G3 Wizard, so I wanted to "play on safe" for G4 Wizards and left the IPL/SPL out of the Rom.

I made the G4 Rom after reading Risidoro's tutorial on how to create a G4 Rom without IPL/SPL.

2) It's true that you don't see an Extended Rom in DeviceInfo, the Ext Rom version is held somewhere in a Registry key, I don't think that it's really important, especially on a Custom Rom, on my Roms the OS Rom and the Ext Rom version are always the same, it's only not displayed!

Molski

GPRS connect and disconnect

Hi, i've installed a standard T-mobile 2.26 Rom and i use push e-mail, an anoying this is happening. GPRS is allways On because of the Push, normal, but, in the 2.17 rom for you to turn GPRS off you have to press the disconnect button for some seconds and in this ROM every time you touch connect or disconnect the GPRS turn itself of and on again :cry: .

I think that is a T-Mobile Ext rom problem, can you confirm if this happens in this Rom as well?

Hi Guys

Has anyone problems with the ringtone volume? I have the new Molski 2.26 ROM and Ringo instaled. But after soft reset the phone rings only first two time loud and then low volume. Is there Ringo fighting or is it on the new ROM?

Phone issue ...

I and several of the people who I've upgraded to the 2.26 have noticed that when on a call and a second call comes in it's near impossible to answer the incoming call. Whenever we go to answer the incoming call it just hangs up the phone. (Quite annoying!!!)

Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi Molski,

Installed your G4 WWE Rom yesterday and I now have a stunning MDA Vario!

I was starting to get problems with the phone and having tried Mr Clean goes to London which I wasn't happy with I flashed your Rom Following the tutorial on this thread

[How-To] Install any 2.x ROM in a CID-Locked G3 or G4 Wizard

and everything worked fine! THANKS!

Keep up the good work!

I am currently running your rom with Resco explorer and Today Plugin, Photo Contacts, Autoflight and Sprite Backup. Only issue so far for me is with soft keys sometimes working sometimes not. Not really a major complaint.

Black theme looks stunning by the way as does the bootscreens. What program do you use to generate themes? Any chance of a Black Dialler theme? Cheers. :D

I have installed this rom and installed many tweaks such as registry wizard, sktools latest.

even after enabling wireless g mode. i still can not connect to my belking router with i did before without any problem using aku 2.2 .

any solution to the problem?

Molski ROM problems

Although all seemed fine, I do have some problems after upgrading with it. When I reset my device, all SMS are lost. And when I try to use WiFi with wpa, no way I can connect, which was possible in previous versions. Then I found out that the fixed IP addresses aren't saved, no matter how I try. Perhaps some fine tuning to be done still, though in general nice work.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] molski:
Re: No lucky getting internet access even when connected

Only the router page? How do you call that page? With IP Address or hostname? If it is IP, then you should check your DNS Settings.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] TechniKal:
Yes i checked that with i.p settings.

when i try www.google.co.uk , it does not connect. but does with 192.168.**.** router address

i didnt touch the router . and after updateing rom. i could not connect at all.

removed security and then it would connect including using wpa . but would auto drop the connection . ( which i dont want ). and no internet access even when connected.

after reading about others in these forums having same and slightly diferent problems as i have. they have upgraded and , downgraded but still got similer problem's with wifi.

after much testing , altering,reading, updating and tweaking. hade no luck.

So now downgraded slightly back to best working rom for me , cingular_8125 which is 2.25 AKU 2.2

now tested it on wifi, and work's like a charme. 100% again.

Many thanks for your reply !.

i will be updateing other with this problem of the rom i am using.

Re: Molski ROM problems

SMS Messages are stored in Rom when they get delivered. Wait 5-10 minutes before doing a hard-reset or reboot your Wizard with your on/off button, then they will be stored permantly (this is normal behaviour on the Wizard).

I repaced the RomUpdateUtility for my G4 Rom by the one that Risidoro uses in his how-to for installing a Rom on a G4 device with CID lock. Only problem is thta it is in italian, but it's simple and should work ;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] thepurser:
Hi Guys,

I followed Risidoro@s guide to upgrading a G4 with Molski's ROM and it worked perfectly. It pays to be familiar with the layout of the buttons on the updater as it is in Italian, (unless of course you speak Italian in which case it's a piece of cake.) Just think back to when your best mate changed the default language on your first phone to Norwegian or some other hilarious language and you had to rmember the key sequence to get it back to English!!!! (Not that I bear a grudge!) If you have issues with inputting settings just copy the example in the pdf.

Re: Molski ROM problems

Ok, for the SMS, I waited long enough and my SMS messages are saved. Thx! I have no problems at all anymore. How did that happen? As explained, the WiFi with WPA didn't work, without security it did.

But I re-installed the ROM again after too much playing. I can now connect with WPA perfectly.

Still don't know why, although I'm happy with it.

Perfect job! :D

Thanks molski

Just upgraded my rom yesterday. It is quite the improvement from 2.17.

-Bootup is very quick.

-Performance and custom tweaks are great.

-A2DP and AVRCP work flawlessly.

-Battery life seems improved

I have a bluetooth stereo headset and it used to skip alot unless I overclocked the processor with my old ROM. Now it's working just fine at the default processor speed with the new ROM. All in all the best ROM yet, both fast and stable.

I haven't had any issues with wifi with wpa or answering a call while on a call. I tested it, swapping calls and conferencing. All works.

Thanks again!

Storage Card Not Installed

Hi Molski,

I downloaded and upgraded my Cingular 8125 with your rom from ftp://xda-developers.com/Uploads/Wizard/Roms named RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE.exe and dated 8/30/2006 10:58:00 AM

I tested quite a few things and they were working real nice. eg WiFi. However, I ran into one disturbing issue: The phone will not read my storage card. When I go to Settings > System > Memory > Storage Card, I get the message: Total storage card memory: Not installed

At first, I figured it was because I did the upgrade with the Storage Card and SIM Card removed, so I flashed the ROM again with the Storage Card and SIM installed. SAME THING!

I'm going to try the original T-Mobile_RUU_Wizard_2261020_226_22511_ENG_US and see if the problem is with my phone. Weird enough, I had just done a backup with SPB minutes before the upgrade.

Hope this is a minor issue.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hiazle:
Still No Go

I downloaded and upgraded to Xelencin's T-Mobile_RUU_Wizard_2261020_226_22511_ENG_US and I get the same problem, and a bonus: NO WiFi. The phone will not connect to my Router, even though it was connecting with Moski's ROM. I'm guessing these hardware issues have something to do with the ROM Upgrade.

I'll see if I can read the card using a Card Reader [that is, if I can find the adapter]

Got any ideas?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hiazle:
Not an upgrade problem After All!

Well after some extensive diagnosing. I found out that the FAT on my storage card got funked up when I did the backup. I do not know if its SPB Backup that did it.

I managed to recover my files from the card using a program called "Recover My Files", then formatted the card... back in biznass :D

hi,

i have got a G4 with 2.21 rom installed, tried to upgrade to 2.26 with the one provided by Molski G4-WWE.

But at the moment he reboots for the first time and you see the three colors on your pda screen, it gives the mesage invalid upgrade tool on my pc.

Re: ïnvalid upgrade tool

There are 3 new Roms (2x G3 and 1x G4) in the /Uploads/Wizard/Roms section of the FTP Server (until they get moved to the right directory /Wizard/Roms/Other_Unknown/Molski.Biz on the FTP).

I made these 3 new Roms because I had a typo/spelling error in one of the Registry tweaks so I updated all 3 the roms. I also updated the G4 Rom with the installer provided from Risidoro at the G4 Cid Locked Upgrade tutorial (that's why my G4 Rom now has an italian installer!).

Offcourse the new updated Roms are also available on molski.biz

Upgrade freeze 98%

Hello Molski,

I'm trying to upgrade my Qtek 9100 with your ROM (RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE) but the process freeze at 98%. The Qtek screen block at 98% but on the PC the update take a long time to reach 99% and the normal end. My Qtek is blocked and I have to remove the battery to restart it. It block on the three colors screen with the IPL and SPL number (2.17). When I retry the process with my original ROM (RUU_Prodigy_2170706_21707106_20710_QTEK_FRA_Ship), it works fine.

But I have a problem with it. Everytime I soft-reset my device, it goes to the Windows Welcome thing, where you have to align your screen and choose a password and stuff.

It's not a hard-reset, all my progs are still there.

Also, it doubles some links to programs, like Activesync, Activesync (1), Activesync (2) etc. in "Programs"

Anyone else with the same problem?

Maybe I installed some wrong apps, I installed a lot!

I'm using the Dutch Rom (RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_NLD.exe)
