Hello I updated my MDA pro with the Jasjar update.

I unpacked the romupdate with winrar and replace the ROMUpgradeUt with the MaUpgradeUt_noID that you can download in this section of the universal pages.

The first time you start the update it wil tell you the your countrycode isn't right. but it wil shift in to bootloader mode and when you start the update the second time it wil update your ppc without problems. Do not reboot after the first update but just try it again in bootloader mode.

Good luck it works like e clock and You get MSN, SKYPE and even a version of etrust antivirus that you can install.

what do you mean by
" Do not reboot after the first update but just try it again in bootloader mode.
"

and how are you reseting the device ?

[decebal]

i did it 10 times.

i'm stuck into bootloader.

the upgrade with the patched file works 100% but then ...

when i'll pull of the usb cable and try the reset (power + reset) or it is not working


any ideeas

thanks

What about softkey + softkey + reset like the updater suggests?

Hello!
Is the correct file there uploaded. I was trying it but is seems to be for the
Magician. No luck for the MDA Pro.

[decebal]

nope. not working.

[gpsenzo68]

For me it worked like a charm

Even with the radio update

So I can't see why it won't work with you

[gpsenzo68]

I'll try and explain again my way of installing:

I downloaded the update from Imate I unpacked the update and then I unpacked the executable with winrar. In the directory where the exe is unpacked I put the patchfile the I have uploaded for you (unpacked offcourse).

The I used that patchfile to start the update the first time it shuts down active sync 4.0 and reconnects in bootloader mode. You get a countrycode error.
the MDA is still in bootloader mode.

Now i restart the update and the install begins after the update you can reset your MDA pro. and it wil come with a IMATE splashscreen whereafter you can select your networksettings from your phonecompany.
then it wil install the new cabfiles from the rom.

That's how it went with my installation.

This worked for me as well. This first time I tried to run it I got a incorrect ROM version error message. Than I found out that I renamed MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe into MaUpgradeUt.exe instead of ROMUpgradeUt.exe. After renaming the file correctly gpsenzo68's explanation works just fine!

The first things I notice with the new imate ROM:
MSN (messenger works without having to buy the app (can sign in )!), Skype, Backgammon, more program memory, got rid off T-Mobile dialer skin, media player fullscreen stretch bug has not been fixed in this release.

MY ROM WAS THE ORIGINAL ROM FROM T-Mobile and now its a wwe rom

[akira]

[gpsenzo68]

[akira]
