Finally I found time to publish my own cooked Extended Rom.
It is to be used together with the 1.72.601 QTek OS and Radio Roms
(do a search to find that upgrade).
Carefully read the Description.txt file on upgrade instructions.
I used the ExtRomUnlocker software because that keeps you from the flash-process which has a higher risk to mess up the device. Therefore I put together a RAR archive and not a NBF rom-image file.
I used this Extended Rom now for over 4 weeks without any trouble (for whats its worth to you . . .)
There is still one issue i am having with BT GPS and TomTom3: When TomTom cannot connect to the GPS (GPS off, BT off, GPS out of reach), it almost freezes the device. I work around this by simply not to try using TomTom without GPS connected.
Any clues on solving that are greatly appreciated.
Please post any remarks.

Is there a way to put that new iPaq PPCE for T-Mobile USA ROM/OS on my xdaII? -or is that a bad idea? -is it possible to get that ROM anywhere?
its a bad idea. This rom would make your XDA2 a piece of metal.
...ok, so if I'm on TMO USA will this 1.72 upgrade work fine for me? I've heard it's generally a bad idea to upgrade unless you're really unhappy...I'm on 1.60.00wwe & radio 1.10.00 -so how will I do better? I'm tempted just to wait til the SE is out...
The 1.72 OS & Radio rom will work fine for you.
See the other threads for the benefits, but they really come down to:
- improved BT
- improved battery life
My ExtRom can be of use too, but you will need to setup the T-Mobile USA specific settings (like GPRS, Voicemail, SMSC and maybe some more)
I have an MDA II, with the UK 1.72 Beta on it. Can I upgrade with this ROM, without any special configuration of the country id, or anything else. Or will this require some special changes to the .nbf, use of extended rom viewer, etc, etc.
I'm ok with upgrading a ROM, but I do not want to mess around with the device beyond that. Too many horro stories out there.
Ik heb een T-Mobile MDA II maar het is lang geleden dat ik heb geupgrade. Ik zit momenteel op 1.60WWE. Ik zie dat dit een extrom is, wat gaat er precies geupgrade worden? Zit er ook een nieuwere radio version bij of zijn het "enkel" o.a. de zaken die jij aangaf?
Enig idee wanneer SE uitkomt want ik ben al een paar maanden hier niet meer geweest
I have "SALAD ROM"
After modifying this ext. rom (except 'T-Mobile' setting), i have "Salad Rom' like this :
ROM version : 1.72.00WWE
date : 03/15/04
radio : 1.17.00
protocol : 1337.28
ext. rom : 1.72.900
before i was ext. rom 1.72.601qteq, 1.72.800imate, and now the latest version 1.72.900edsubsoft
and worked fine for me, untill SE out.

Re: I have "SALAD ROM"
If I decide to use this ROM when the Official T-mobile comes out am I going to have country ID error problem again like when you have upgraded from... I-mate to T-mobile ROM or vise-versa? Or it is just straight forward upgrade?
Thanks!

From the replies I think is about time to clear some things.
1. My archive is just the CONTENTS of a ExtRom that I put together. Benefits: All new versions & works together perfectly with 1.72qtek & contains customisations for T-Mobile Nl that I want.
2. Because its NOT an NBF, you DON'T have any country code issues on the ExtRom
3. For your device to work, you will at least need a 1.72 NON-Beta OS & Radio rom. I use the Qtek ones, but planning to upgrade radio to 1.17. Withe the OS & Radio you may entouter country code issues, but they can be solved via the instructions on this site. You will have country code issues when your device currently is not running a rom from the same distributor. ie: if your running an official T-Mobile rom you will encounter country code issues when using the 1.72 Qtek or iMate roms
Hope this helps . . .
Thanks for clarification...

Sorry for the extra question but that didn't clear things up for me...
Leaving the C-code error aside which seems solvable, are saying with my current rom & radio (posted above) I can just download your 1.72 and will have no issues?
CDTV, you first have to get the 1.72 rom upgrade (for use of os & radio) from Qtek or iMate.
AFTER you upgrade to that os & radio, THEN you can use my ExtRom.
OK, but Ihave an xdaII from o2 bought from expansus & unlocked using w/TMO...am I out of luck to get the update? is it really worth it? (batt life & BT a lot better performance?)
From where I can download this 1.72.900 version upgrade?
From where I can download this 1.72.900 version upgrade?
@heshamsch:
errrrrrrr in the first post of this thread?
remember its only the contents of the ExtRom, You need a 1.72 os & radio to get it to work properly
@CDTV:
I cant judge if you wil benefit noticably
I benefitted (especially BT, to be used without any extra tools now!)
Remember the ExtRom contains (more or less) Éxtra's and NL specific customisations
edsub a lil help man
i got the official 1.72 WWE rom installed and considered installing this extended rom,but i do not know where to put the files in order to install or the process....is there some program i use to install a walk through would be greatly appreciated,also is the radio better than 1.14.00?
Ext Rom Tmobile
Hi, your Ext rom suits fine, but.....I use KPN as my prvider and would rather not see the T mobile screen when its starting up. Is this easy to fix within the ext Rom and if so how can i change this.
Thx
Ferry
this should be do-able.
You need to change the images that reside in one of the cab's.
Use ce cabmanager to open those. You can try this s/w a number of times before you have to buy.
You cant just put any bitmap in.
Search this forum on 'splash image' how to create your own (KPN i suppose) image: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=3759&highlight=splash+image
Hi,
Did not see this yet, so with the help of the german one, I made a dutch version.
( Aquiring the required files actually bricked my hermes, but thank god for the invention of kitl resque!)
JP
Ok, I installed the cab and what to do next? After a soft reset nothing happend. Also after a hard reset nothing happends.
@ dutch: wat doet het capje? De taal omzetten van engels naar NL?
It only changes the input language to dutch.
So for example your word completion in a sms is now dutch instead of english
(that is if you had a english os
Ok, I see. Works perfect! That saves a lot of time to delete and copy the stats, dic etc. files to the windows map and changing the registery!
Thanks!

Does not work on my Eten-X500+
Hi..
I have an Eten X500+ and try to install the Dutch input cab. Does install, does say it is OK but when I soft reset after install there is only English stuff for input. I also do not have an uninstallable item in remove programs.
Any idea ?? The installer only tells me that there is no guarantee that it will work because it is build for an older Win version.
My version is:
5.2.318 (build 15342.0.0.0)
Is there perhaps a newer .cab available somewhere ?
Thanks!!! Danny
en bedankt, werkt perfect
for the english people that cant read dutch
Thanks, works perfect

I have upraded my Vario2 to the following settings:
IPL-1.04, SPL-2.10.Olipro,
with Radio V-1.41.00.10 and WM6 pro Black 3.0.1 ROM .
and I lost the 3G reception on the device.
Can I use your file to switch back to the original ROM of version WM5 and the current radio?

Yes you can, this is the original T-Mobile Vario II (wm5) ROM incl. ext_rom (just no splash screens for now)
There's no radio included, so you will keep your current radio version.

It is true that this update of my X7500 from SPL 1.2 to SPL 3.5 changes?
If I switch to spl 3.5, I can no longer back?
Greets Ddriver.
When you upgrade to 3.5 you will have the ability to downgrade back to 1.2.
For NOW its a one way ticket. But comnex have made a downgrader and will release it in near feature.
You should know, that 3.5 is more stablish and faster. With this ROM you will get a fast device with all featues of WM6 and the speed of SLP3.5.
bye

3.x SPL Hasn't anything to deal with STABILITY and SPEED. Those are ROM characteristics (OS) !
3.x SPL is NEEDED ONLY to use FULL AP4.0 (there is a light version available) and AP5 beta, and it is STILL a one way only
Can you please give some informations about this ROM?
It s a windows 6.1 rom?
It is based on IRUS, TAXIST, AP3, AP4, AP5?
I will add the link to the ROM collection sticky thread

You say it's slow. Funny. Miniterror doesn't seem to think that way.
But hey, you don't like it, don't use it. Period. I don't know why I even bother doing multilanguage ROMs for such ungrateful people.
Best regards,
what is slow abaout it?
can you guys enlighten me wich part of the iomega rom is slow?
i have three htcdevices under my guards and they are all the same with speed?
does this mean i have three crappy htc devicesot have you done something wrong with youre flashing?
tell me wich part is slow and i will check but the iolite is in use by my girlfriend and she isnt easy to please but i havnt heard any complaints form here
i have played with the phone mself and also didnt found it slow
maybe i can help
best regards
miniterror
Well, i also am interested in that, since i have not seen a decrease in performance by going to this rom, but actually the opposite!
There are some slowdowns sometimes, but it was the same if not worse in 6.1...
Someone with two devices should make a comparative video of 6.1 and 6.5 i guess...
I remember comparing two Vox, one with the 6.1, and one with the 6.5, and the difference was night and day (in favor of 6.5).
This may not be as visible with our iolites, but my feeling is that it is faster with 6.5...
billabongstaff, i flashed it again ..... and now its very good!
I have only one little thing, no sound or vibration when i recieve a sms text message....
But, sorry for the complains i made earlier it's very good now
RESPECT!
Hi Billabongstaff,
I'm sorry for my complains, but you know what it is?... The most annoying thing about the Rom is that my phone doensn't vibrate if i recieve a text message. It vibrates when i turn my phone out of sleep. And then i see a textmessage what is urgent from 2 hours ago. And i dont like all the extra programs. Sometimes my phone runs at 46% and then he doesn't react anymore.
If you have a dutch version of 6.5 with less programs and a vibrating textmessage option, i use it. I really appriciate the things you do for us at XDA, i really mean that.
Hope to see a reaction.
Upload Dutch rom
Aangepaste Iolite wm6.1 NLD
Dumped my 6.1 dutch rom and cooked a nbh file.
Unpack rar and run the customRuu.exe
In the rar file extra cab's added manlia2d files and tt7.915 patch.
install order htc mega, htc hero clock, md2d.
Copy the tt files to navigator folder.

pvdvlies,
I flashed your posted rom, now my phone is dead
only black screen !!!
Get real...
To everyone above complaining:
1.Before flashing a ROM learn how to do it.
2.Before blaming someone try to figure who's actually to blame.
3.Turn on sms wake up event in the reg edit - this is fully described in 6.5 rom thread.
erg vervelend
Ik heb de rom zelf nu 2 keer terug gezet om andere roms te proberen en succesvol.
Waar gaat het fout?
Bij het laden, uitpakken, opstarten......
Zet de telefoon in bootmode en probeer de rom opniuew te laden.
vr.gr. Peter
Ik heb zelfs de download nog een keertje gedaan en op de telefoon gezet. En hij blijft nu inderdaad hangen op het startscherm
Ik zal vannavond nog een keertje een upload doen en deze testen voordat ik de link publiceer.
Nogmaals excuus ik probeer het op te lossen.

New dutch rom
This one is tested.
First go to bootmode.
Switch on the Phone by Pressing On and Volume button.
Run the CustomRUU.exe.
After installing wait a few minutes then the phone will startup.

After installing you may install the additional cabs from the download.
1 - install HTC_Mega_2DManila_2.0.19171723.00.cab
2 - install HTC Manila2D Hero Clock.cab
3 - install M2DC_v0.29.235.CAB
4 - Copy files from ttcrack to programmabestanden/navigator

Peter,
Bedankt!
Ik zal deze nu downloaden.....maar zie net dat die vorige versie ook een diamond laat zien als ik de RUU.exe open, of maakt dat niks uit?
