Your English is OK.

The T-Mobile ROM is supposed to be better than the Imate ROM because users of the Imate ROM complain about the speaker sound quality.

The ROM doesn't dictate wether the phone is locked or unlocked.
The SIMLock does.

As far as I'm aware, the only locked Magicians are the T-Mobile ones from the Netherlands.

German T-Mobile MDA Compact is not locked.

The process of updating to the English or German T-Mobile ROM is not difficult but the guide is not very well written.

It's not a simple update either.

I don't know how to change the extended ROM.

I used the English ROM fro the download on www.compactjam.com

One of the messy steps in the process is copying the old ROM's header to the new one.

After i read many topics in this forum.....I think each one have its goods and bad points.....so my question is "Is it possible to combine and flash different rom together?". I mean sth like main rom is from T-Mobile, extended Rom is from iMate, camara patch from O2.....sth like this

:oops:

pS : Thank for all the answer,everyone.....

regards

I have recently acquired a T-mobile MDA in the Netherlands (Yes, it's locked! Don't start 'bout it!)
I got rid of the T-Mobile skin and colours, so i have some experience at working with ext-ROM, but I don't get the versioning thing.

According to my system settings I have ROM version 1.01.00 WWE (ROM date 10/21/04)
Radio version 1.00.10
extROM version 1.01.124 WWE

Do I have a prehistoric ROM version or what?
Should I upgrade? (I hear that T-mobile rom's are good)
And if i upgrade to, say, an I-mate ROM should I use xda3nbftool to change provider settings. (what does that xda3nbftool do exactly?)

Thnx in advance.
