Hi everyone,
A quick question -- has anyone with a UK SPV M2000 successfully upgraded to the latest Imate PDA2K rom? If so, could you please post step by step instructions of how you did it?
Also, does the upgrade clear the Orange UK extended rom and replace it with the Imate extended rom?
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Nick
Orange SPV M2000
Hello mate,
It seems that we SPV M2000 are underlings in this forum, nobody seems interested in the new users.
I have unlocked the Extended Rom of my M2000 and I have installed the fax software from the Imate, and it works. I do not think that there is anything else that could be interesting there.
Also I upgraded the BT software to build 3500 which seems to have sorted out the licence and memory problems.
If you learn anything could you look out for me and let me know?
Re: Orange SPV M2000
I have just got the SPV M2000 and have been having problems with bluetooth and Jabra SP100, I think I need the BT upgrade or patch.
I'm new to the pocketPC world and rom patches etc.
jrmgolem, I would like to get the fax software installed too and the BT patch, but there is so much information on the forum, it's difficult for a newby to figure out where to start :shock:
Would be greateful if you could list the steps that you went through to do your upgrade
Thanks in advance.

No problem, if you send me you email I will send you the files. All you have to do is to copy the files into the temp directory in your M2000 and tap them, then do a soft reboot and it should then be updated.
You will need the unlocker as well, then the EXT ROM Files. They are here somewhere so I will find the url and send it.
I'd love to have it too
sent yo a private message..
thanks

Hi guys,
Just wondering if either of you could help me out...
I've not got an M2000 yet. Long story...i intend to use my work Voda SIM with an M2000 that a friend who is an Orange dealer has offered me in exchange for a few beers should i want one 8)
A little obvious but just to make sure, I presume that once unlocked, a Voda sim in the M2000 poses no problems :?:
Assuming it works with a Voda SIM, i'm also guessing the M2000 will be heavily customised to Orange. If i flash with an i-mate rom, will that get rid of the Orange customisations and provide a more generic software?
If i need a reflash, until i get the unit i've no idea what versions etc the hardware will be (or even how to find out). Can anybody offer an idiot guide of what to look for and how to flash the unit??
Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance 8)

I am currently using m2000 with my 64k CINGULAR SIM and everytime when I get out of subway it took my phone a good 2+ minutes to search and and once it registered, my m2000 has roaming indicator on.
I am currently using ROM 1.31 and Radio 1.13 and I have tried it with new 1.4 rom and that didn't solved my problem either.
Is there anyway to get a work around for this? I had sx66 and H6315(unlocked) and both of them didn't have any trouble searching for Cingular network (less than 20 secs).
Please advise.
Can you force the issue by going to settings->phone->networks->set networks and adjust what's checked and looked for first, or change network selection to manual?
Rik
I can't do that as it will giving me an error message stating unable to save/send settings.
I just flash my m2000 with SX66 regular and extended ROM plus camera cab file. Network search time is now about 45 secs without roaming indicator.
Let's hope that they'll have a 1.4x ROM version for SX66 out soon.

Hello,
I would like to share upgrade idea & howtos with buddies using closely similar BA as mine, that is SPV M2000 Orange (have a french Orange subscription), but UK buddies too !
I use extensively IP phone in wireless context, travelling a lot, so, using a global roaming ISP. This allows to call for almost free.
I work on enhancing Radio/BT capabilities now, so perhaps we could share on that specific goal.
XTEN PRO ppc is the IP phone I use:; it works well, but unable at present time to use my Jabra 250 BT with it. This one is kinda "captured" by the SIM telephone app, working great, but this is a clear audio limitation of my current BT driver/version.
Welcome to share & enhancement !

Hi, I have a SPV M2000 that I wish to downgrade from Windows 2005 to Windows 2003se because I believe the upgrade is wrong as I have no camera, TomTom does not work and other problems. Could someone tell me which reliable 2003se rom I should use as I cannot find it on this site. I wish to use the PDA simfree and uncluttered without any of the network suppliers junk on it, would this be easy to do? Any help would be gratefully received. :lol:
