Please please please help me upgrade my MDA...

[ewg_uk]

I've searched and searched to find a post that tells me straight to the point how to upgrade my MDA but I just can't find one.

I've got the XDA Developers FTP loaded up in FlashFXP but there seems to be a lot of empty folders on it.

Can someone please tell me if there is a guide on here of exactly what I need to do to upgrade the unit? I followed some advice to fix my Bluetooth problems on here and now my whole MDA has stopped functioning properly... the Today screen just shows all strange graphics etc but I still have the upper and lower menus.

If there is no guide, can someone please tell me what I need to do... my business relies on my MDA!:( :roll:

Well, there seems to be a very very very very very funny guy of girl who has deleted most of de maps of de the Magician. Again, very very funny, we're all lauging very loud. (or is it a manifacturer??? QTEK?, iMate? T-Mobile? Who's the bad guy?

the Today screen just shows all strange graphics etc but I still have the upper and lower menus.
Maybe there is a solution: someone else had the same problem (I think, he also had a corrupted Today screen), but after he chose a different picture in the today screen the problem is solved.

Not good about the files:( Whoever it is has just cost me an awful lot of money so I hope they feel great!

Screen issue is now solved thnks to the picture thing but my Bluetooth will not function at all now... was asking for me to turn flight mode off when it wasn't even on and now it doesn't work full stop.:(

ok this a small guide i made for a friend..... i'll post it here


ok first thing to do is get the ROM file.

second... after you download the file... extract the zip into any
place you want you will end up with an .exe file... right click on the
exe file and choose extract ( not you need winrar to do that) and
after you extract you will find a bunch of files one of them is named
ROMUpgradeUt.exe or (MaUpgradeUT.exe) replace this file with this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=4022

after you replace the above file, double click on it and it will start
upgrading ... the device will go into bootloader mode (black screen
with Serial 1 written in it) you will get the country error ID
((((DON'T PANIC)))) and DON'T REMOVE THE DEVICE FROM THE USB OR REST
THE DEVICE, just click Exit to finish. while the deice in the bootloader
mode click on the replaced file and run it again the upgrade process
should go fine................


i will try later to do the guide in a pdf format with pix and more detialed

Okay guys I'm new here too :D Since I want to get rid of the pink t-mobile stuff and upgrading to a ROM which provides me better camera quality I would like to try a newer ROM version.

But where to get the newest ROM from ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Magician/ ? I see extened ROM's but I have been told an extended ROM is a kind of addition to a normal ROM. But where can I find the basic ROM. I've been told that O2 and Qtek roms are the best.
