1. Have 7 files in /windows directory, 2,71Mb each:
MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Broadcast Message SMS Protocol (Recieve Only)
MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Notification SMS Protocol (Recieve Only)
MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft RAW SMS Protocol (Recieve Only)
MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Status Message SMS Protocol (Recieve Only)
MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Text SMS Protocol
MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft WCMP SMS Protocol
MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft WDP SMS Protocol

=19Mb :shock: :shock: :shock:

It Seems to me something wrong... Does anybody know what these files are for and how can i remove them? (writes the following: cannot delete - there has been a sharing violation. The source or destination file may be in use.)

in /windows are also similar 7 files 262Kb each:
MsgQueueMAPFileMicrosoft Broadcast Message SMS Protocol (Recieve Only)
MsgQueueMAPFileMicrosoft Notification SMS Protocol (Recieve Only)
MsgQueueMAPFileMicrosoft RAW SMS Protocol (Recieve Only)
MsgQueueMAPFileMicrosoft Status Message SMS Protocol (Recieve Only)

Have you tried to do "Big Storage" ?
look here for the utility: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8422&highlight=unlock+extended+rom

attached a cab file that will install a tool to lock/unlock and hide/unhide the extended rom.

( with 'unlock' I mean make it read/writable again )


Hope it helped :)

This unlock tool isn't suitable for the magician :!:

Not yet, is it possible to make "bigstorage" without flashing firmware? Don't really wanna do it, works stable.

[oltp]

Yes it is, but flashing firmware is saver than patching & flashing your current rom. Instructions below


As always there are riscs in this :!:

Instructions:
- get ntrw.exe from the ftp
- Download romupdate from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=7510
- Download Hexedfull from the ftp
- get a SD-card > 64MB
- make backup of everything you want to keep from your magician & SD-card. everything will be wiped!!
- fully charge your magician
- uncheck usb connection in Act.sync on your PC
- put your magician in Bootloader (camera & power & soft-reset at the same time for a few seconds) wait till screen fades & reads 'serial v1.0x'. Screen is very dark since backlight is of.
- connect usb, now the screen reads 'usb v1.0x'
- start romupgrade on your pc
- pick the magician connection in the listbox, wces something I belief
- now a screen pops up
- type d2s in this screen
- follow progress on pc & magician
- wait till checksum finishes
- get SD from the magician & put it into a cardreader. DON'T FORMAT!!!
- put ntrw in C:\
- start a command window
- type on commandline: ntrw read myrom.nb1 [sd driveletter]:
- follow progress
- error at the end is normal
- make a copy of myrom.nb1
- open myrom.nb1 with the hexeditor
- Replace pattern for bigstorage in myrom.nb1:
locate twice the 02 00 00 80 00 20 and change 80 00 to b8 01 in both occurences
(use binary search for this!!)
- save it to mybs.nb1
- type on commandline: ntrw write mybs.nb1 [sd driveletter]:
error at the end is normal
- put the SD in your magician
- now it should read 'press power to flash'
- press the power button
- watch it reaches 100%
- checksum will always fail
- reset & hopefully enjoy the BIG Storage rom

Cheers, M

Thanks you for this important note!
Didn't found it in the thread of the tool, sorry!

No problem, the hardware setup of a magician is different. For the moment you can unhide the ext-rom, still ad only, or turn it into BIG Storage. The write switch hasn't been found yet.

Cheers, M

[GKill]

Is anybody knows how to unlock Magicians' ext-rom? I need this feature!

[oltp]

First thing that comes to my mind is: Are you blind?

Next thing is: what do you mean with 'need it'? Do you want is visible or BIG Storage?

Visible with running the hidden \windows\loadvdisk.exe

BIG Storage see the wiki or one of my post from today.

Cheers, M

No, I am not blind! I knew how to make it visible. And I knew about big_storage (I don't want it).
All I want is to make my (already) visible ext-rom writable! Just to place my favorite progs to install automatically and delete useless ones from ext-rom!!! How can I do this? In your post above you said, that it is no "write switch'. Hmmm, this means that I can't make it writable, yeah? Toooo bad....

[oltp]

I don't know how to make it writeable, but do know how to change the ext-rom. Bal666 made a tool for this. It decodes the ext-rom to a fat-image so you can mount it as a disk, change it & flash it back.

It not as easy as writing directly to the ext-rom...you can customize it to your needs though.

Cheers, M

Btw offended?

Thanx, but windows didn't started after that... :D Everyhing was made correct...
Have waited for 5 minutes(maybe it's NOT ENOUTH?) (only the logo screan apeared), lthen aunch bootloader again, try mksbigstorage112 - copy my 416 bytes, flash - OK.
But radio still 1.11.

Now flash my native ROM back, cheksum OK.

want to try 1.12&BigStorage.

So, the questions are:

My device is Qtek S100,
native ROM version: 1.11.00 WWE
native Radio version: 1.11.00
native Protocol version: 1337.42
native ExtROM version: 1.11.113 WWE

1) If i take this ROM:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Magician/Shipped_ROMS/UK_11200_131_11210_ship.exe
change my 416bytes, change "80 00 to b8 01" twice,
Will it work on my qtec and it shoud have Big Storage, correct?

2) What WWE means? is it ok to flash ROM vithout WWE letters?

3) Used SD512mb, after ntrw read the flash, ROM size is 512mb, how to make it's size normal? And after saving in HEX file size doubled(1gb :shock: )

Questions are simple, answer somebody,who knows, NOW please, want to try it immediately.

[oltp]

The first boot after a BS patch takes some time, some report around 10mins. & Only the ori.dumped rom has checksum OK. So I guess you did everything right as the splash appeared for those 5 mins you waited.

The UK_11200_131_11210_ship.exe is a shipped-rom & needs to be treated different. Follow these instructions http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianRomUpgrade & you should be having BS & radio 1.12. Btw WWE means World Wide English. Any rom without that can be any language incluing Chinese :-).

So read the instructions, be patient & GO!

Thanx again, you're live here as I see, which version you suggest better?
is it possible to reduce ntrw ROM image size? :roll:

[oltp]

It's bad habit of me all this posting, yes.

I'm pleased with the 1.13WWE. It's stable & battery life is ok.

Sure it can be cut around 64MB. When you've open a BS rom, a downloaded one or one made by mksbigstorager you'll notice that at the end of the rom there's a specific byte pattern. search that in your own dump, keep an eye on the address cause there are more then 1 occurences, & select everything in your rom from the beginning up till that last occurence (including those last bytes) & save it in a new .nb1

Why bad? it's very useful :D

Coudn't you hint me the link with 1.13 wwe, can't find it nowhere :(

btw, ROM's for Qtek S100, i-mate Jam, MDA compact are the same and O2 is a little different?

P.S. the phone really needs 5-10 min after flashing with byte-change ROM...

[oltp]

I got my 1.13WWE from http://www.t-mobile.nl/zakelijk/htdocs/page/service/mda_compact_upgrade.asp here.
Don't worry the rom is English.
Somehow formatting the device after applying BS take time.

All magicians are the same, except for the Greek one's. They don't except none Greek roms. O2 roms are having O2's active desktop or something like that. Still the CE rom is useable.

Succes, M
