Hi! is a retail/freeware version of the sim manager from xda mini? im using an xda atom right now and it's giving me a headache to copy all my contacts to sim manually. I don't want to use outlook/activesync to do it. I really nid it badly.... tnx!
I encountered this problem also when I upgraded to Atom. Because while using xda mini, you can select all the contacts by just highlighting it unlike on Atom (WM5) you have to do it one by one >.<. And it consumes a lot of time! Luckily, when I upgraded my Atom to Jiggs' WM6, my problems with SIM Contacts are solved already. Because the SIM Manager in Jiggs' WM6 is easy to use. You can even choose what numbers you want to save on your SIM. But I'm not sure if there is a way that you can only install the SIM Manager that comes in Jiggs' WM6 ROM.
ITs a DotFred contact list. you can install it.
but sorry cant find the link
I found a similar software, HTC sim manager v6.1 hehehehe will try to upgrade ROM later (this would be my first time) many had recommend it. Im still using the ROM from o2

it's called PPCcontactsManager by dotFred, but I think it has a bug with WM6. device hangups after 3x you open your contacts.

Hi I have a big problem and i need all the help i can get
I have an XDA IIi but i accidently deleted all the data on it
the opertating system is gone the screen is only showing me Serial 1.0
and when i connect to my pc only shows USB 2.0
I would like to know if somebody can help me out with this and tell me how to restore the software to my device, i have a backup copy on my SD card, but i don't know how to used
Please help me
thanks
[/b]
have to reflash it
how did it happen?
did you try puting any rom version in it or what?
more info is needed
hey
I was trying to upgrade the radio version of the phone, but the version i was installing was not desgined for the XDAIIi , so, instead of upgrading, it deleted of the rom of the device and now the operating system is gone
the only thing i still have is the backup copy that i made defore the upgrade
i don't know if there is a way to use that backup copy in order to restore the system
thanks
Recommendation
It is propably that the system ROM was erased during upgrade and the upgrade wasn't successfull. Try to download the Diamond 1.2 WM2003se(my recommendation) ROM images package(somewhere available at this forums(Himalaya Upgrade)) and aferwards to flash your device with these files. If u want,u can try also the WM05 system.
He said his device is an Xda IIi not the old II.. Well you can reinstall back ur old ROM, no worries.. Download from my-xda.com..
i or not i
I thing there's no matter if is it IIi or simple II. Or not?
How do I fash my device in order to install diamond 1.2?
I also was looking an upgrade for the XDA IIi but now there are not offering any updates, I have tried to install the upgrades for the XDAII but it gives me an errror telling me that the ROM version is different and it cannot be installed
...
If you mean the Country ID Error while attempting to flash the WM05 system,there's a problem of this OS. 2003se is without problem(for me). Simply download the Diamond ROM from this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=18287
or directly:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=3739
This contains 4 files(maybe more,but these are important).
-HimaUpgradeUt.exe
-ms_.nbf (Extended ROM image)
-nk.nbf (System Image)
-Radio_.nbf (Radio stack)
Start the bootloader(probably you are there),put the Hima to cradle,Windows at your computer detects your device and then extract the downloaded file into one folder and run HimaUpgradeUt.exe
This utility is writing what you should do.
As I have readed that the WM05 OS is a little bit buggy(some compatibility problems etc..) at this time to use in Hima. Therefore I am using the 2003se.
Thanks a lot!
Hey guys,
I just downloaded the XDA IIi ROM version from the O2 website

Sincerely
Jorge :wink:
You're welcome
Nice to help you.

Of course it does matter.. Remember that the II and IIi is now a really different device even though both looks identical.. For example, u said he can upgrade to WM2005 (or ROMs that was meant only for Xda II), but of course this can't be done, this is bcos the difference in hardware specs, 4 example IIi has 1.3 MP cam (II = 0.3MP), 128MB RAM, 128MB ROM (II=128MB RAM, 64MB ROM) and so on..
JorgeGZC, I'm glad to be of help to you.. :wink:
Oh sorry.
I didn't know. I'll be well advised.
İ am a mda2 user. İve bought my device from Germany and after that i changed its ROM to an english one using a rom editor to change its country id .. This encouredged a close friend of mine and he bought a O2 XDA2i. And since both me and my friend have no idea about German language we immediately tried to convert it to an english ROM.
And using a wrong ROM (sinmerged 2003 se for himalaya) i killed his machine. It now only writes serial or usb (when connected to cradle). Someone told us that if we flash it with a original German ROM it can work again. But there is no German ROM downloadable . And even if we find a German Rom and install it , it wont solve our language problem. I am a dentist and i even cannot believe how much i've learned browsing these forums
If you can help me i will be very happy!
note : in the ftp server there is rom named german rom for xda2i.. But its a lie. its in english
The same?
That looks like the same problem as at the top of this topic. Just read all this posts once again and you'll get the right way to solve your problem. Hope that helps.
I also have the same problem. I tried to install the wrong upgrade. I've downloaded the new one but i keep getting a connection problem message because activesync can't find the XDA. Help please!!!!
...
When you are in bootloader then ActiveSync will not find the device to synchronise with(cause the WMOS is not running and therefore is any synchronisation disabled). When you put into the cradle,the computer should find new device(Microsoft USB Sync). Then is the device connected and ready to update.
finding it hard to get good answers....so in anybodies opinion
the 02 xda mini s
is there any updates from the origonal 1.5.4.2 WWE? if so where can i get em from?
If no updates, maybe the 02 rom isnt the most up-to-date?? and it would be better to change to i-mate? or a q-tec?...if so...which would people recommend? and where could i find them? also...would they effect my being on 02 at all or would evrything stay the same and just the device will work better?!?
what do people think?
jamie
Hello jamie,
I would think that you should at least upgrade to the qtek9100 rom if u worry that u might not turn back to the O2 provided ROM. Or if you want even better performance, you can use the latest imate ROM. But i read in posts that you cannot downgrade as the loki wizard does not work in this rom.
Anyhow, i'm using an xda mini S and using the imate rom though.
Cheers
I was wondering about this as well. I've got an O2 XDA Mini S and it all seems to be working fine (so far). I don't use it for anything spectacular though phone, diary, notebook and I have a few other apps on it. I also run spb pocket plus and spb diary, again with no particular problems.
I know the old adage, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", but are there any benefits from moving to the latest imate ROM, say?
tzehming,
You said you couldn't downgrade. Do you mean that once you put the latest imate ROM on, you can't ever go back to the original O2? Also, what's the deal with LokiWizard - is there something that needs to be done before the ROM can be upgraded?
(apologies for the dumb questions, I'm starting to get to know my way around the device)
Thanks,
John

Hello jko,
Yup u're right about having to use loki to unlock the rom. Search it in the forum and u'll find it. Just type loki.
After unlocking using the software, you can then install any rom for wizards, i.e. O2 mini xda s rom, imate rom or qtek 9100 rom. The one i'm using now is the latest one, which is the imate rom. I heard it cant be downgraded and we'll have to wait for an updated loki software to fix that. But the qtek 9100 rom can be downgraded again. I suggest u try the qtek rom as it makes the pda much faster. The O2 rom is really a turtle when opening the slider and closing it.
Hope this helps
Having read the advice above I'm going to unlock my device and flash it with the qtek 9100 ROM.
Once I've done that, what CAB files do I need to install in order to get O2 MMS and O2 GPRS working again?
Thanks,

Thanks,
Can't answer your question, but just a request to post back your experience once you're done. It would be appreciated.
John
well, you could again search the forum for gprs settings. u may not get the automatic setup anymore, thereby may have to do it manually. search for O2 gprs in the forum. as for mms settings, someone made a cab file, I can't remember which forum , but again, it can be searched. Try O2 mms.
hope this helps
I've got the mini S too...
First thing I did when I got it was to get rid of all the o2 crap on it... couldn't believe how slow it was even in basic mode!
I did the whole hard reset then soft reset when it says "customizing..."
This basically leaves you with a bare o2 wm5 rom without any of the customiztion installed. MMS won't work and either will GPRS.
To get these working you need to install Total Commander on your mini S and browse to the /extended_rom/ directory.
The cab files in this directory are the files installed when it says "customizing..." on a hard reset.
You can then selectively install which ones you would like to install.
There is a brief outline of what each one is on the htc wizard page on the wiki but I've made a better one I'm gonna stick on there.
You also need to input the GPRS settings and MMS settings manually and install a cab from the extended rom that creates the MMS folder in the messaging application.
After you've done all this you'll notice a considerable improvement over the o2 rom with all the crapola installed.
I've also used lokiwizard to unlock it all.
Not tried the qtek rom or the new i-mate one... as I don't use push-email or the like and haven't found any considerable bugs yet I don't need to.
I have found naggaly features which after installing the RegistryWizard, NullKbd and a few others... they seemed to be solved!
I recently updated my O2 mini S 1.5.4.... rom to the new imate one and i must give my approval for upgrading to this rom. Its faster, more stable, is much better on battery life for some reason.

Where can I get this. It does not appear to be in the Rom download area (or is it under a different name?)
its in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=42638&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
Well I successfully upgraded to the new i-mate ROM and it's MUCH faster. There's a lot less lag when sliding the keyboard in & out, and the general responsiveness of the device is considerably better.
I've managed to get GPRS working, and I've installed the MMS cab but I can't send or receive MMS's at the moment - it keeps telling me that it couldn't send the message. So I'm going to post elsewhere in this forum and check that I've got the correct MMS settings.
Overall though, I'd definately recommend upgrading to this ROM. Just remember to use Total Commander to take a backup of the O2 Extended ROM beforehand so that you've got the MMS cab-file available to install at a later date.
Excellent. Thanks for the feedback. I may well give it a go later today.
John
Code:
Just remember to use Total Commander to take a backup
Is this the one from Ghisler.com?
I downloaded this but cannot find any instructions or reference to backing up the Rom. Any idea where I can get the instructions (if there are any).
Code:
browse to the /extended_rom/ directory
I cannot see this in the Total Commander Directory list.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Just got my o2 mini s a couple of days ago and I am loving it soo far!!
However, I already encountered a couple of bugs - the system laggss REALLLI bad, like when the slider is pushed out, even when closing/running certain programs the device hangs. Also, I have seen a couple of times where the "phone" application will not load up. In all these cases I have had to do a soft reset on the device.
I am thinking of upgrading the rom - but this is my first pda, and i know nothing at all about fidgeting with the software. I don't want to mess up such an expensive phone so is it pretty easy to do?
w_2k20a:
I too want to be careful.
I have 2 phones, and my O2 Mini S is slow compared to my MDA Vario.
So I am going to try and run an update to replace the ROM on the O2 with the newer one on the Vario, and also get rid of the O2 add-ins which are what slow it down apparently.
I will try this first because I have read about so many problems with the latest I-mate one, and it is not easy to return to the original ROM if it does give problems (although it is possible it seems tricky) - I may the Imate one later if I need to.
The ROM for the Vario (along with others) is here:
ftp://[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/Tmobile/ - use password xda
Its the UK one.
But first I backed up my Mini ROM. I used awizard to do this. Read this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43399
I think that you will find that using the awizard (get it from this link)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
the backup part is easy. I have done that quite successfully.
Good Luck.
Has Anyone Tried the O2 Plus On the Wizard ?
http://www.seeo2.com/product/XdaIImini/template/O2Plus.vm/n/features
Yes, I did, still do.
Why ?
I tried all the Links and Files here on this forum But None of them worked on My O2 Mini S. (WIZARD)
It says " O2 plus is not supported on this device"
How come?
Try this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=39128&highlight=o2+plus
It works, first install o2 plus then reset, install patch and reset, then it works.

BY THE WAY the link mentioned above has many FILES and VERSIONS in different Messages.
Though I have tried all..is there any specific one which Works the Best On WIZARD / Qtek9100/ i mate K-Jam/ O2 mini S ?
The patch is for all phones, I used the file listed in the first page. It works on mine.
Storing on the card is a problem, you have to install it on the wizard after installing O2 plus and reseting the wizard.
That site is somewhat odd. It's aimed at asian O2 customers. Is there a UK specific version?

Yeah, already been through that thread. Was looking for one specifically for my phone and hoping to get a UK version....
And I still want to know what the patch actually does....
Then I really don't know what you want or are looking for. This is for all phones including the one I have "Wizard" which is what this forum is all about.
I was just trying to find the one that is officially for my phone (O2 XDA Mini S), not that has been convinced to work with my phone.
But I was still wondering what the patch does. Does it change some registry settings so the phone looks like a compatible phone or have the limitations just been removed from the app or something else?
GOSH !! Whats wrong with O2 Plus ??

To get it to work on my UK O2 Mini S XDA I downloaded the file that contains both files,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=9091
un-rar'ed them to my XDA, ran the program file, reset my XDA and then ran the patch file.
FM Radio for [email protected] Mini S?
Is it possible to use the FM radio for O2 Mini S? Which is found in O2 Plus? Thanks.
I've already installed the O2 plus cab. Where do you install the patch? directly into the windows directory? Thanks.
I didn't know you could choose, normally it asks me either phone or card...
I installed the 02plus cab in the main memory then it said that the program 'is designed to run on certain models of xda devices. please check www.seeo2.com for more information'.
when i tried to run the O2Plus.v2.0, it says thers is no application associated with this.
I've been using the latest TMobile rom for a while now and just a week ago I had to hard reset because GPRS would not connec.....now after the hard install I just finished installing all my apps judt to find out
-Email comes in and when I click on the notification it dissapears out of my inbox
-Bluetooth no longer connects in car. States its on in comm manager but I actually have to turn it of and on to make it work.
Can someone recommend a good stable rom to use with t-mo for the MDA.... ? And if you can recommend a specific one what are its advantages? Should I upgrade to WM6 or will I be very slow?
Thanks in advance everyone

Hey, what you can do is unlock your phone using guides here and flash a custom rom from some of our genius cookers. I would suggest flashing to the wm6 or wm6.1 rom, one example would be http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=367534
It is a new rom built on wm6.1 and it is super fast
Hello, i am sorry for the really lame question but there is no other choice for me. I flashed my tytn yesterday with TAI's HERO V3 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM and can't find anywhere how to transfer my contacts from the SIM card to the phone? I've tried searching for that in google but there are only paid programs to do this for me.
Do you have any idea how can i do this for free?
I found the application i needed by "accident" it is called Shubaruu SIM Manager and is free. I will attach it to the post if someone needs it too to download it.
P.S. Mods please lock this thread.
