I have been offered an MDA Vario and want to know just a few little things.
Firstly, the Vario is running the latest software from T-Moblie (released 06/06 I believe).
I don't want to upgrade ROMs (too complicated for me to risk).
I need a tool/software to enable A2DP bluetooth.
I also need a tool/software to fully unlock (sim/application and CID) the Vario.
I have searched the forums but only keep finding topics about ROM upgrades and software that work with those ROMs.
Thanks.
You can either unlock the VARIO with lokiwiz (all over the forum here!) or - in case it is a US device: simple email T-Mobile customer care. They will offer you the code for free.
Thanks for the unlock.
Will the o2 A2DP bluetooth stack (in the Magician forum) work on the MDA Vario ?

Dear all,
congratulations to this very sophisticated forum.
Helped me for several open questions with my mda. THNX!
I was very suprised to read about othmans sw update working well for qtek1010 regarding the wmodem application.
Is there any chance to get this wmodem application implemented in the mda? Are there any news to that topic?
There is a German forum (http://comlab-md.org:8080/mda/index_html) -OK is rarely compareable with this one - but there we can read, that mda distributor (T-mobile) may not have any interest in such a wmodem function for mda. Incredible! For me it's an essential feature of such a device...
THNX for your interest
regards from rainy Munich

Update without radio stack update perhaps?
I was wondering this too. Specifically whether the qtek ROM update could be done, but without letting it do the radio stack update.
I guess the thing is, what is in the ROM side, and what is in the radio stack side?
I specifically want the 'allow GPRS to stay alive' option on my USA T-Mobile device....

It seems the new RSU and RUU working with my T-Mobile MDA perfectly, However I still checking the RSU Qtek 3.23 is better than o2 4.16 or not.
Hi there,
I've been using a Magician for the past 18 months (O2 Xda II mini) and have just ordered myself an iMate JAMin. It's a freebie on my current business phone plan.
Can someone tell me if the Prophet has suffered from the same problems with GPRS that the Magician has - i.e. trouble connecting to GPRS a second time, which seemed somehow related to the CallerID software?
And what English ROM is considered the best/most stable at present? Or put another way, which ROM version(s) should I avoid? :roll:
Hi,
I upgraded and so far have not had a repeat of the GPRS issue you mention.
As for best ROM, someone else can answer that. Be careful though, some people have reduced thier pride and joy to a mere paper-weight after trying to flash to a new ROM. :shock:
Hi Everyone,
I have just literally purchased a T-Mobile MDA Vario. The only thing I don't like is the fact that it will no doubt arrive full of T-MObile sh*t.
I have browsed the web and from what I can tell, it looks possible to install the Qtek 9100 ROM on this device if I want to?
Does anyone/everyone have any recommendations as to whether one ROM is better than the other?
I am looking for a simple, stable functional ROM, I don't want anything jazzy or customised by the operator (like my T-Mobile SDA II was!!!!)....
Thanks!
Mike
Hello,
I have a T moblie compact III, if I un-lock the CID can I flash a new ROM of wm6 and get wifi working ?
If so could you point me at where and how to find the ROM's
Thanks for any help

Only one chance how to make WiFi working on T-MO Mda C3 is to buy microSD-IO wifi card( if any exist - i doubt) unless You have one of the first from Netherlands. There is no WiFi chip inside MDA C3. (you can say thans to T-Mobile)
thanks !
I though T moblie would not want there user's installing skype and chatting for free.....
How can I tell if its got the wifi chip set? I have had it for about a year
thanks martyn
Hi,
I am a newbe with the MDA´s and I hope you can help me.
I have a T-mobile MDA Vario I that is locked to Tmobile. I would like to unlock it. Is this possible? What do I have to do?
Is it possible to install Windows Mobile 6 on the Vario 1? I would need a german version and instructons.
I have used the search function, but it always says the search term is too short and I do not know what my Vario I actually is ( qtek 9100, HTC Wizard? ).
Thank you in Advance!
Welcome to the wizard owners community
Your device is just wizard. It has many names though. Mine is the same, but probably you have a german one. As for unlocking, i used lokiwizb tool, found here in the forum, but i guess it is easier to do it with aWizard application, also found here. all you need is a usb cable, activesync and mentioned software. Don't remember the details (it was over 1.5 year ago and i don't do it often) but it was quite easy and worked. I'll try to find direct links and post them here. Hope i can help. On the other hand, WM6 upgrade shouldn't be a problem at all, but someone else must help you cause i don't know a thing about a details of it (i'm a happy WM5 user) ;]

G3 or G4 is a chipset version. it plays a big role in flashing your phone, so read about how to determine which one you have, and what should/shouldn't you do to your MDA, it is IMPORTANT so be carefull.
As far as I remember, sim card is not required during unlocking process. (painfull mistake, i bought tmobile sim for 7 pounds just to learn I don't need it, and even worse, my girlfriend already had another one
