Exclamation WM6 problem with t-mobile mod

The WM6 OSrealy works great but i got one problem with it only updates te OS rom since its a g4 device and u updated with the shell tool so my t-mobile rom is still there and when the first time I boot and the os is completed the starting up procedure the T-mobile codificasion kicks in and starts putting old software on my pda wich is not deletable and it also messes up my contacts list. what to do now? can you kill this mof before it instals ore something? please help! cant use the contact list and the gps connection. really like the shell tool by the way!

I'm not sure about WM6, but in WM5, if you softreset your phone just before (eg, just after the security setup) they start putting in the t-mobile stuff (from EXT ROM), you ought to able to get a clean OS.

Just delete (and backup if you wish) the files in the extended_rom with total commander (point to \extended_rom).

I cant find the extended_rom location? do you use total commander on your desktop pc or on the pocketpc.

Open Total Commander on the phone itself. In the top "search box", type: \extended_rom

You will then be able to see what's in the extended ROM.
