[Attention]
This utility is created for experimental purpose only. Use it at your own risk!

!!!!Please choose the unlock CID option before you flash any new ROM!!! Or your phone may risk chance to become dead!!!!

Starting from version 1.3, please put your ROM file to the "ROM" folder and BMP file in "SplashBMP" folder
Version 1.3 beta 1 is not fully tested. If you have doubt please use version 1.2

[Introduction]
aWizard is a user friendly ROM Utility which provide a single place to do Wizard ROM related tasks. OS ROM can be backup and restore using USB ActiveSync connection. In addition to backup/restore, I have successed in modifying the OS ROM and flash it back to the Wizard. This function will be available in the coming releases depends on demand.

Some user have reported that they have successfully backup and restore their Charmer(MDA Compact II) OS and Extended ROM. But again. Please make sure you know what u are doing before your write anything to the Charmer. I don't have a Charmer device to test with. So do it at ur own risk.

Other ROM Types like Bootloader, Radio and Extended ROM will not be affected. To change those parts, please use cooresponding update programs and then use aWizard to change the OS to your desired one.
