WWE_11300_550_11200 vs. NL_11300_131_11200

what's the difference between these two files. I haven't understood which file is the latest one and suits better for my O2 XDA MINI ? What means the second digit (550 or 131) in the file name?
Thanks

As already discussed many times the ROM image consists of 3 parts, the OS ROM itself, the Extended ROM, and the Radio ROM. the OS ROM and Radio ROM is standard for all variants of the Magician. The Extended ROM is where providers or re-branders (if there's such a word) put their enhancements. Some examples of the enhancements would be GPRS, SMS, MMS configurations so the user does not have to manually setup the unit.

In this case the 2 ROMS are as follows;

WWE_11300 = Generic World Wide English ver 1.13
550 = Extended ROM
11200 = Radio ROM ver 1.12

NL_11300 = Also an English version 1.13. The NL is just to indicate that the ROM image is coming from a Dutch provider, therefor the Extended ROM contains enhancements coming from said provider.

I'm using the NL ROM since it was one of the first versions of 1.13 that came out. My Radio ROM is ver 1.13. Since I configured my unit with BS, I installed the latest English versions of MMS, Intellidialer, etc.

Thank you for explanation, but I would like to know also, what exactly differs one file from another (extra programs, themes, etc.)
Thanks

I can't answer that 100% since I've not and will not try to install each and every Ext ROM available. The main difference between them would be brand/provider customization programs like auto configuration of phone for SMS, MMS, GPRS. I have totally no idea about themes since I don't bother about it because I'm using WA+WAD.

The only I could suggest to you is to download each and every Ext ROM in the ftp, extract them and compare the files.

Ok, I've tried NL_*.exe - its a T-mobile (english) with poor interface (red) and without Acrobat. I didn't like it at all, so today I'll try WWE*.exe

I suppose you are not using BS. If you're just after how the theme looks like then you can make your own theme with ThemMaker and or download themes (there are threads for this). There are also skins for the Phone interface, in fact some have ported the Eten skin into a Magician. Secondly, you can simply download Acrobat for PocketPC from Adobe's website.
