Hi everyone,
I tried a search for this but couldn't get relevant information.
I am currently running a cooked ROM 4.05 and wanted to upgrade it to the latest official WM 2003 rom from ATT. I am not gonna upgrade my radio stack, and I know how to avoid this by unzipping the exe file and using the .nbf file in XDAtools to upgrade.
My question is, how do I save my sms's and then restore them back? In active sync, can I do a full backup and then a full restore after upgrade and will this save the sms's as well? I know it saves all my personal files and such, but what about the sms's? I tried using that "Sms export" program but it doesnt seem to work for me. (or maybe I'm not using it correctly, but there's no help)
A quick reply would be appreciated. Thank you all.
You need a program like Pocket Backup.

Total backup
I would like to upgrade my ROM on qtek 2020.
I need also a backup of all my programs and data on it, I mean that I don't have to reinstall nothing when I make a restore.
It is not enough to make a backup in Activesync (in tools)? It is written that it makes a complete beckup (also programs and settings).
Another question. Is it possible to have the original ROM (which I have now on my qtek 2020) somewhere, in case that the new one has bugs?
I have now:
ROM version: 1.03.00 USA
ROM date: 09/24/03
Radio version: 1.05.12
Protocol version: 1337.12
ExtROM version: 1.03.21
Please, I really need help.
Thanks in advance for the answer,

Hi all,
What are these files?
1. MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Broadcast Message SMS Protocol (Receive Only) 2.71M
2. MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Notification SMS Protocol (Receive Only) 2.71M
3. MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Raw SMS Protocol (Receive Only) 2.71M
4. MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Status Message SMS Protocol (Receive Only) 2.71M
5. MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Text SMS Protocol 2.71M
6. MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft WCMP SMS Protocol 2.71M
7. MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft WDP SMS Protocol 2.71M
They occupied almost 20M space. They looked like SMS related & are stored inside the Windows folder.
Can I eliminate them or move them to SD card?
I am using that A.30.09 WM2003 ROM.
Thanks.

Have you tried to do "Big Storage" ?
look here for the utility: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8422&highlight=unlock+extended+rom
attached a cab file that will install a tool to lock/unlock and hide/unhide the extended rom.
( with 'unlock' I mean make it read/writable again )

This unlock tool isn't suitable for the magician :!:

Not yet, is it possible to make "bigstorage" without flashing firmware? Don't really wanna do it, works stable.
Yes it is, but flashing firmware is saver than patching & flashing your current rom. Instructions below

As always there are riscs in this :!:
Instructions:
- get ntrw.exe from the ftp
- Download romupdate from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=7510
- Download Hexedfull from the ftp
- get a SD-card > 64MB
- make backup of everything you want to keep from your magician & SD-card. everything will be wiped!!
- fully charge your magician
- uncheck usb connection in Act.sync on your PC
- put your magician in Bootloader (camera & power & soft-reset at the same time for a few seconds) wait till screen fades & reads 'serial v1.0x'. Screen is very dark since backlight is of.
- connect usb, now the screen reads 'usb v1.0x'
- start romupgrade on your pc
- pick the magician connection in the listbox, wces something I belief
- now a screen pops up
- type d2s in this screen

- Replace pattern for bigstorage in myrom.nb1:
locate twice the 02 00 00 80 00 20 and change 80 00 to b8 01 in both occurences
(use binary search for this!!)
- save it to mybs.nb1
- type on commandline: ntrw write mybs.nb1 [sd driveletter]:
error at the end is normal
- put the SD in your magician

Thanks you for this important note!
Didn't found it in the thread of the tool, sorry!

No problem, the hardware setup of a magician is different. For the moment you can unhide the ext-rom, still ad only, or turn it into BIG Storage. The write switch hasn't been found yet.
Cheers, M
Is anybody knows how to unlock Magicians' ext-rom? I need this feature!
First thing that comes to my mind is: Are you blind?
Next thing is: what do you mean with 'need it'? Do you want is visible or BIG Storage?
Visible with running the hidden \windows\loadvdisk.exe
BIG Storage see the wiki or one of my post from today.
Cheers, M

No, I am not blind! I knew how to make it visible. And I knew about big_storage (I don't want it).
All I want is to make my (already) visible ext-rom writable! Just to place my favorite progs to install automatically and delete useless ones from ext-rom!!! How can I do this? In your post above you said, that it is no "write switch'. Hmmm, this means that I can't make it writable, yeah? Toooo bad....
I don't know how to make it writeable, but do know how to change the ext-rom. Bal666 made a tool for this. It decodes the ext-rom to a fat-image so you can mount it as a disk, change it & flash it back.
It not as easy as writing directly to the ext-rom...you can customize it to your needs though.
Cheers, M
Btw offended?

Thanx, but windows didn't started after that... Everyhing was made correct...
Have waited for 5 minutes(maybe it's NOT ENOUTH?) (only the logo screan apeared), lthen aunch bootloader again, try mksbigstorage112 - copy my 416 bytes, flash - OK.
But radio still 1.11.
Now flash my native ROM back, cheksum OK.
want to try 1.12&BigStorage.
So, the questions are:
My device is Qtek S100,
native ROM version: 1.11.00 WWE
native Radio version: 1.11.00
native Protocol version: 1337.42
native ExtROM version: 1.11.113 WWE
1) If i take this ROM:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Magician/Shipped_ROMS/UK_11200_131_11210_ship.exe
change my 416bytes, change "80 00 to b8 01" twice,
Will it work on my qtec and it shoud have Big Storage, correct?
2) What WWE means? is it ok to flash ROM vithout WWE letters?
3) Used SD512mb, after ntrw read the flash, ROM size is 512mb, how to make it's size normal? And after saving in HEX file size doubled(1gb :shock: )
Questions are simple, answer somebody,who knows, NOW please, want to try it immediately.
The first boot after a BS patch takes some time, some report around 10mins. & Only the ori.dumped rom has checksum OK. So I guess you did everything right as the splash appeared for those 5 mins you waited.
The UK_11200_131_11210_ship.exe is a shipped-rom & needs to be treated different. Follow these instructions http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianRomUpgrade & you should be having BS & radio 1.12. Btw WWE means World Wide English. Any rom without that can be any language incluing Chinese .
So read the instructions, be patient & GO!

Thanx again, you're live here as I see, which version you suggest better?
is it possible to reduce ntrw ROM image size? :roll:

It's bad habit of me all this posting, yes.
I'm pleased with the 1.13WWE. It's stable & battery life is ok.

Sure it can be cut around 64MB. When you've open a BS rom, a downloaded one or one made by mksbigstorager you'll notice that at the end of the rom there's a specific byte pattern. search that in your own dump, keep an eye on the address cause there are more then 1 occurences, & select everything in your rom from the beginning up till that last occurence (including those last bytes) & save it in a new .nb1

Why bad? it's very useful
Coudn't you hint me the link with 1.13 wwe, can't find it nowhere
btw, ROM's for Qtek S100, i-mate Jam, MDA compact are the same and O2 is a little different?
P.S. the phone really needs 5-10 min after flashing with byte-change ROM...
I got my 1.13WWE from http://www.t-mobile.nl/zakelijk/htdocs/page/service/mda_compact_upgrade.asp here.
Don't worry the rom is English.
Somehow formatting the device after applying BS take time.
All magicians are the same, except for the Greek one's. They don't except none Greek roms. O2 roms are having O2's active desktop or something like that. Still the CE rom is useable.
Succes, M
I can see what sms message I received, but after I click on the sms message to view it's content, it just showed a blank white screen. Just to reply and create a new text message. It also appear a blank screen.
Any idea hoe to solve the problem ?
what ROM are you using? give us details on your prophet...
This is most likely related to the CE-Star Chinese product. When it installs, it places a wince.nls file in the \Temp directory of the device, along with a registry setting under HKLM\Software\Mobem\CE-Star -- MyNLS="\Temp\wince.nls"
After some experiments, it seems that even if you want to move or rename this file, regardless of whether you update the registry setting, it is not possible to do so without affecting the messaging application. I would suspect that somewhere in some of the CE-Star logic is a hard-coded reference to that location.
Solution: If you have CE-Star installed, and are loading the NLS file via the DynaNls.lnk file in \Windows\StartUp, then ensure the registry setting (documented above) is set to "\Temp\wince.nls", and ensure that the wince.nls file installed by the CE-Star application resides in the \Temp directory.
Note: I use the trial version of this product (limited to 50 characters input). I'm not sure whether modifying these settings for the registered version will remove this hard-coded limitation. Personally, I like to only have temporary files in my \Temp folder.

On my HTC Touch HD I have a very strange problem.
On the IMAP account, I can see when a message has attachments.
If they are „jpg” file type, after I mark and download them, the attachments have zero size (0 b).
Also, it happened (after mark & download) to show me that an „jpg” attachment has 2MB, then saved it on the main memory (or even SD card). When I checked, the size was also zero (0 b).
Other attachments (e.g. ZIP, CAB, etc) are OK, I can download and open / save them.
My system details:
OS: Windows Mobile 6.1 (5.2.21046)
Manila: Sense 2.5.20153712.0
ROM: Kenia BlackNew V WWE
Radio: 1.13.25.24
Protocol: 52.62.25.34U
Can anybody help to solve this situation?
Regards,
Stefan
