Magician - Help Me Please

Hello,
I have just purchased an MDA compact. I want to replace the ROM on the phone with an imate rom which i have already downlaoded and I also want to unlock the phone using imei-check.
Please could you tell me what order to do all this, should I unlock it first or put the new ROM on first? I want to use it on o2.
Please could someone provide me with simple instructions on how to put the new i-mate rom onto the phone? Its a UK T-Mobile MDA Compact.
Thanks very much.

I unlocked mine first and then upgraded the ROM

upgrading
Download the ROM http://www.imate.ru/downloads/JAM_WWE_128.exe. It is latest International English for I-Mate (no locks, no special customization, except for Club I-Mate e-mail soft - forget about it).
Then, connect the device to PC, and ActiveSync (GUEST MODE ONLY!) and run the ROM exe. It will patch the ROM.

Will this work for o2 xda ii mini too?..

Arrava- are you saying that if this ROM is used on on a SIM locked Magician it will unlock it??

yup... you do know that the Magician is sold as i-Mate JAM and MDA Compact, 02 mini and among other names. if not you wouldn't be here right? the difference is just the customization of the ROM... overall, it is the same...
anyway, the better rom is from t mobile...
cheers...

New to this so please help.

Hi,
I have an O2 XDA 1 and I am looking to do a few upgrades but I’m not sure where to start, can someone please answer a few questions for me:
1) Which is the best firmware to use on my UK O2 XDA 1 (Windows Mobile 2003) + can someone please send me a link to download it ?
2) I also need the file to unlock the device so I can use it with my vodafone SIM.
Many thanks

Many thanks for the reply Stefan, Is WM2003 SE the one i need + do I need to select any other options before downloading the Rom ?
James

I would choose WM2003 final 4.01.12 ROM.....
Stefan

Hi Stefan, i have a few more questions just to make sure I know what I am doing.
1) Which Rom do i install first is it the Special ROM or WM2003 Final.
2) When it comes to the upgrade i take it i just connect the device using Activesync via my USB cable and then run the start.bat ?
Thanks for all the help.
James

First the Special-Edition ROM for unlocking, then the WM2003....
Yes, just connect your device via Activesync and run the Exe-File......

After Upgrading Imate Jamin from 2005 to 2006, it just does not book. It comes on blue screen "I-mate" and stays there about 8-10 hours but does not boot.
Please help me. please please help me.

Try a hard reset, Hold the camera and comm manager buttons, and do a soft reset.

O2 Neo didn't boot
l3v5y,
One question, what could happened whith my mobile after a hard reset and it still didn't boot?
I have a O2 XDA Neo and I tried to upgrade my WM5 to WM6, but unfortunatly it didn't pass.
Now my O2 didn't boot.
Did you have any suggestion about this problem??
I will be so glad if someone could help me.
Thnks in advance.

O2 XDA Neo

Can it enter bootloader (hold the camera button and soft reset)? if so, there is something in the wiki about recovering a failed upgrade.

Thank you iceblade911.Where can i get 1.13 ,please post the link.

update problem answer
just do it again that iamte jam rom update to 1.12..............got to imate.com and download jam_update1.12

Not to worry mate.
Hi Zabih,
Not to worry. I have not personally tested with Windows Vista so, if you can use Windows XP, it would be great.
There is a special button sequence to bring the I-Mate to a Factory install mode. Then you will be able to flash the ROM again.
I can't find the sequence at the moment, but drop me an e-mail and I will surely come back to you.
