When changing from CHT to English I made a mistake and dumped the Charmer Rom Update... (by mistake.. wrong identification...)as a result the Extended rom stays the Chrmer and I can't get rid of it. I could not find a way to modify the extended rom can only "see" , can't modify it.
Could one of the 818pro wwe owners dump his complete rom (sd version) and upload it to the site?, Is there already a "shipped rom" version?

There is a copy in xda-dev ftp site at

/Uploads/818Pro_WWEOS/

Is your unit a Dopod? Anyway, I've tried to FLASH my MDA Compact 2 with a Dopod ROM and my camera stops working. Just take note of that.

There seems to a way to unlock (replace/modify) the Ext Rom.

Thanks hanmin for your prompt reply...

1. The MDA compact II is not the same H/W as the 818 pro. Your camera did not work becase the 818 pro has a defrent Camera 2.0 MPixels while the Compact II is only 1.3MPixels.

2. I tried all methods mentioned here and NADA... I can unhide the Extended Rom but I can't modify/get rid of the exsiting content (which has been originated by mistake when I RRUed it with the Charmer (MDA Compact II) files.

3. The 818pro on the FTP is missing the Extended rom NK/NBA files.. and I can't over write the rom because it is locked for writing. A shipping rom could help, because probably I can use the rom editing tools to set it up.

I wish there is a way to write back the extended rom files into the machine with the awizard utility (it is great.. but this function is mssing for my case...).

Still looking for a flash rom to clean my "dirty" T-mobile charmer extended rom on my 818 Pro..

Right now I stop the Extended rom update and built an ExtRom on my SD card using the files that are in the FTP.. however for future sake and for the simplisity of Hard Reset in the future I would like to have a complete Image of the Extended Rom.
