Unlocking MDA

Hi all,
I have MDA (XDA) from Austrian T-Mobile with ROM version 3.13.12 GER. I would like to unlock my device but I am not sure if this ROM-upgrade will work with my device. Can somebody give me a help?

There is no reason why it shouldnt work. Make sure you back your existing rom by sd method before proceeding.

You need to get XDA2Unlock, just go into the right forum.
But it's quite easy. I did a unlock real fast. took me a few minutes (it was brand new, so I didn;t need to make backups.)
Go to eh unlocking it forum

The best ROM for unlocking your MDA I is the english 3.17.03 SER (Special Edition ROM) which has the XDA-Unlock tool built-in.
Then i would recommend a cooked version of the German T-Mobile ROM 4.00.33 with some nice Tools already included...
If you can't find the ROMs, I can help you to find them ;-)

MDA Vario ROM

Hi guys
Just a quick question and I hope you guys can answer me.
I have got the MDA Vario with T-Mobile and have upgraded the ROM to 2.17.7.2 WWE (this is the Qtek Rom) and it works just great.
My question is, however, can I downgrade this ROM to the original T-Mobile ROM it came with?
I am wondering since I want to send the phone back to T-Mobile but am worried if they see I have upgraded it they will not take it back.
Please help.
Thanks kindly

You'll need to use lokiwiz to unlock the device and then reinstall the opriginal ROM. As you have an AKU2 ROM you'll need to downgrade the ROm first to an old custom QTEk ROM and then run lokiwiz to unlock then re-install the ROM. There s along post on this forum or the upgrade forum on how to do this. There are alos posts re putting the device back into it's original state if you need to ship it back to a vendor - can't find them just now but would suggest you trawl the forums... painful though it may be

Hey thanks loads. I have looked around to try and find how to restore everything but can't find it yet. I'll carry on looking but if you can suddenly remember where they are I'd appreciate it
Also, do I have to downgrade the QTek ROM first, or can I just install the T-Mobile ROM straight away?
Thanks again

Does it matter that the link above looks like it is for US? I have UK T-Mobile

DaveyG th solution is explained at http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...IBwAAABi/2UG&bcsi_scan_filename=viewtopic.php
If you want a TMo UK ROM got ot the TMo UK Site http://t-mobile.iris-global.com/mdas.html

Thanks JoninLA, the phone is unlocked using Loki already as that is how I upgraded the ROM, but I will make sure I have unlocked it and then install the original ROM from the T-Mobile site.
Thanks so much again, now I should be able to send it back, providing it all works...

the wiki is a good source of information

I am also thinking about trying out one of the WM6 ROMs but would like the option of downgrading to my UK T-Mobile ROM (1.21.110.3) if I need to for any reason. I've had a look through the wiki info and found a page that contains a dump of my current 1.21.110.3 ROM but it states:
Dumped or Modified Roms Available For Your Hermes
NOTE: It is NOT POSSIBLE to flash or replace the ROM on your device with one of these.

So is there anyway to downgrade back to 1.21.110.3 ROM if it's not possible to flash or replace my Vario II using the dump?

If I was to follow this reconstruction guide does that mean I'll be able to flash my device with my original ROM that I dumped from my Vario II?

Wizard Wm6 Rom

Hi Guys,
does anyone have a WM6 english ROM for the wizard yet ? I dont seem to be having much joy trying to find one.
much apprecieted.
Andy.

sorry guys, i have one i found - my mistake for being ignorant lol.
i need to update IPL and SPL to V2 .xx for both. how do i go about doing that ? and tutorials and files would be apprecieted
thanx

to upgrade to 2.xx, look for the official t-mobile usa 2.26 rom and flash your rom with it. after that you can move to wm6. just make sure that you're phone has been cid unlocked before you start the whole process.

Hi guys newbie here

hello to all.. i just followed the wizard guide on wm6 roms and flashed mine and so far works great on my o2 xda mini s. thanks for all who contributed to the guide..
just wanna ask though, do i need to go back to ipl/spl 1.xx if ever i wanted to switch to another wm6 rom? The rom i currently flashed has an ipl/spl of 2.xx..

No i dont think you do but it is advisable you flash back to the original tmobile 2.26 rom before you flash another custom rom, atleast thats what i do!! Hope i have been of help!!
Amishra

ah.. okay.. what if currently i have ipl/spl version of 3.xx will it also be safe to flash directly the tmobile 2.26 rom? just wanna make sure that the possibilities wouldn't brick my phone..

just bumping this thread.
anyone can help out?.. cant seem to find any threads regarding this..
