Can anyone comment on the Advanced Configuration Tool V1.1 Schap's 2007, included in OCTAIVOI 6.0 Rom. The Miscellaneous (Misc) tab has options to "Show Extended ROM" and "Unlock Extended ROM".
When I check these, I cannot detect that the ACT v1.1 actually changes anything on my device. I can use the Windows Service Tool V 4.2.1 by Mestrini to actually make the extended ROM visible. I can also format the extended ROM from WST 4.2.1. On my T-Mobile MDA running Octaivoi V6 the ExtRom is then displayed as Extended_ROM2 in the root directory of my device. I can write some, but not all files to the Extended_ROM2 directory, but cannot then delete them - only by using WST to format the ExtRom again. So, it appears that the Extended ROM is not truly unlocked.
I was hoping to regain the extra 9-10 Mb for program installation (not just CAB storage). Anybody else tried this, or found a solution to truly/fully unlock the Extended ROM region on the HTC Wizard? If so please post and PM me. May also send direct to drmulligan@aol.com if you don't mind.
THANKS - you all ROCK!
