Trouble installing Games on MPx200

[Guest damystica]

Hi everyone,

I recently upgraded my MPx200 ROM (bought from AT&T Wireless store) from WM2002 to WM2003. I really like the new ROM because it cleaned out the uneccessary softwares from AT&T but there are few problems I'd like to ask for your assistance.

First, in the "Task Manager" menu, when I select "Kill All" (Programs), it always popped up the Error Message, and I have no clue why.

Second, most of the games from OmniSoft such as those 3D racing games, I cannot install them on my 1GB Lexar SD Card. Today, I purchased RocketElite Gold but disappointed because the program couldn't be installed on the SD card. I have no clue, but when I tried to install on the Phone's RAM, it worked! Now, I'm asking myself: what's the point of the SD card if I can't install the game on it.

This is the message when I tried to install the game on my SD card.

-----------------------------

Unable to install

RocketElite Gold

-----------------------------

|\Mounted Volume < >|

Does anyone having this problem? This is extremely difficult for me to install anything. I couldn't install any of OmniSoft 3D games on my SD card.

Virtual Pool Mobile worked.

Tennis Addict worked.

Rebound! worked.

I could install Motocross to SD card with WM2002, but not WM2003. I hope someone in here is good enough to help me solve these problems. I've also sent email to the game-makers, but haven't received any response.

Thanks ahead,

Cason :shock:

As you have installed an ilegal unsupported ROM to your phone the problem is possibly caused by the way the game install has been made. They probably have not accounted for the IPSM or on most 2003 phones Storage being renamed to Mounted Volume.

There is also a chance that Omnisoft may not help if it requires them to alter their game to support ilegal software.

Thank you for your reply, Administrator awarner.

One of OmniSoft representatives responded to me that he has tested on an MPx200 Windows Powered Smartphone 2003 version 4.20.0 (Build 13291) and the games worked fine. Mine is a little bit different. The following is my phone's description.

I downloaded this ROM from a good source website (from MoDaCo, I think). The Rom is in English version, not the hacked German version. But I think you are corrected because most games probably only recognize the SD card as a Storage, not Mounted Volume. Oh, what am I going to do? I seriously don't want to go back to 2002. WM2003 is very faster and eliminate all the uneccessary queues when running a program. *sigh*

Thanks again, Admin. I hope to hear more replies from experts.

Regards,

Cason

P.S. What will happen to my MPx200 if I flashed its ROM too many times? Will it burn out?
