Rom Question

Sorry for asking such fundamental questions but i am new to this site...
I have a Orange SPV M2000 (Blue Angel)
Can I ugrade the rom on this, what will the upgraded rom give me that i dont already have and how do i do this ?
I have looked at the rom pages and can not seam to find an Orange rom, does this matter ?
Sorry if these are basic questions, thank you for your time.

I also have a m2000, was wondering if it would be ok to install the new 1.4 asia O2 rom???
Mainly want it for WMP10 due to the streaming video etc.
Have red some mixed reports about the new rom, is it actually better than 1.31???

ive upgraded my m2000 using the wiki
im basically running the imate roms as im unsure on how to play with the extended rom.
everything went fine without a hitch!

I have an orange SPV M2000, I have successfully upgraded to Rom 1.40 with Radio Rom 1.13
I am a bit of an old hand doing this as i have had a pocket pc since the inception of a ipaq 3630 many moons ago.
What you ask do you get with the updates? well the main reason for upgrading is the increased reliability. far less soft reboots due to lockups.
and a nicer interface with WM10 especially since i have a media center PC and i can automatically synch my recorded TV to the device
anyone needs help with upgrade you can msn me at stuart b ***NOSPAM***@broadbandtap.co.uk

I can't download MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP ?????
HELP?

Performance, Stability and Software issues after upgrading O2 XDA Mini S

Hello,
I am new to this forum and hope you can help me.
I recently upgraded my O2 XDA Mini S with the latest (Original) QTEK 9100 Firmware that were avaible from the Qtek Webpage. I have done this, because many people in internet say, that the Qtek Firmware is as much faster and less memory intensive as the O2 Firmware.
The Upgrade has done successful. But some days after upgrading I noticed more and more, that this Firmware seems to be less stable and slower than the O2 Firmware I used before. On a second XDA Mini S I also recently Upgraded with the latest O2 Firmware (SPL/IPL 2.19). This Firmware wasn't much better than the O2 Firmware I used before that - but it didn't cause such problems as this one. Nontheless I noticed that too late and for some reason the Upgrade to the Qtek Firmware was not possible with that Firmware any more (FW upgrade failed).
Damn that I selled this phone too early before noticing all issues with the Qtek Firmware on the second phone (where the Qtek Upgrade worked).
Here is a list of all issues that I noticed with the new Qtek FW:
I could swear that all this things worked much better with O2 Firmware!
- I can't use the slide-switch to control the volume while being in a call
(Is there any way to config this?!)
- MagicButton (Tool to "really" exit programs) does have problems to close messaging, phone- and contacts app (won't close). With the recent FW this was no problem.
- I would put my hands in fire that the XDA was much more stable and faster
than now. Often the XDA just hangs a while or crashs while clicking to open a program or loading software.
- For some reason since some days I've noticed an issue with the backspace-key ('virtual touchscreen keyboard') within the messaging app (sms). The Key doesn't work anymore when trying to delete chars. In other app it works. After resetting the XDA it works one or two times - than after reoping it sucks again.
Now another non-software-problem:
My Stylo-Pen doesn't fit and hold anymore. With the other phone (damn...the one I selled) - the pen held perfectly! With this phone it just sucks.
Does anyone have a trick or tip for me? Does anyone know if this is covered by O2 warrenty services?
I hope someone can help me with my issues. If this is really a firmware problem I would like to upgrade to the latest O2 Firmware. But doing this I want to enshure that I don't upgrade the 3rd-Party Firmware lock (that locked my other "unlocked" O2 XDA). I've read something that it might have to do with the SPL/IPL 2.19. Can anyone confirm this? Is it possible to upgrade to the O2 Firmware without the SPL/IPL?
Best Regards

Internal GPS

I have WM 6.1 Pro and tomtom navigator 6. I want to ask that is there any way i can make my built-in gps search faster for the satteline beside using quickgps? thank you

What exact ROM are you using? Early WM6.1 ROMs (those ported form other devices, before the official one came) had very long times to first fix (several minutes).
The current ones have normal times of about 30 seconds.

It's WM 6.1 Pro
CE OS 5.2 19214
I dont know if it is a current one or the one was ported.How do i know? i bought it as used

Is 'it' a HTC TyTN II, AT&T Tilt, Vodafone v1615, O2 XDA Stellar etc? If you bought it used, the previous owner may have changed the ROM or Radio/SPL through a process known as flashing. Does it all appear the same as whats shown in your manual for the device (or if you don't have the hardcopy, what is shown on the downloadable manual from the device provider)?
Check out the XDA-wiki pages if you're new to your device, it'll answer lots of questions you may otherwise be tempted to ask here needlessly. Newer WM 6.1 versions of HTC TyTN II ROMs (including the very latest UK released World Wide English - WWE one) have terrible GPS times to get a satellite lock when compared to the original WM 6.0 ROMs so if GPS functioning is important, for the mean-time until the ROM is fixed, you may want to have it reverted to an older ROM that works faster.

I never used to have problems then I sent my phone back for repair and they updated me to WM 6.1 which was the start of my GPS problems.
Anyway I've just set the external GPS to 9600 as suggest by CHfish and hey presto back to a fast fix. Don't set anything else on the external GPS as this can really bugger up your internal GPS.

Searching Tool to cook WM5 ROM

Hi,
I have a XDA mini S (G4). Every time I flash the Phone with a WM6 ROM there are Problems with the Radio (It takes much longer to connect to the Network and the reception is not so good), the Bluetooth doesn't work correctly, everything runs slower and sometimes the OS just crashes. There is only one good thing about WM6: it looks much prettier. Now i want to flash the original O2 WM5 back, but at first I want to remove the JUNK O2 added to the OS. Now I'm searching for a program to modify WM5 ROMs, but I need some advice, I don't want to ruin my phone.

Are you in the UK?
Hi, I assume that you are in the UK since you mention O2 and mini s. Also, what WM6 rom are u using? I have just put XM6r5.1 on my uk mini s (both G3 and G4) and upgraded the radio to the T-Mobile 2.19.11 UK This works (so far) perfectly. (On contract and pay&go). May I suggest that you have another try before you give up and return to WM5. I am a noob, so this may be wrong, but I think the O2 stuff you mention is in the extended rom and unlocking this is not possible on a G4. There might be some way to prevent the OS from using it but for that answer you need an expert! Best regards

WM6.0 for diamond

hello,
is someone know if a WM6.0 rom is availlable for the diamond ?
This version is needed because one of my software doesnt run both on wm6.1 and 6.5.
thr only way to make it work is under 6.0.
in case this is not possible, can you advice me a device (wich can be findable in the market) with all the feature of tytn2 ad downgradable to wm6.0.
Thank you in advance for your anser.
best regards

never heard of it
but it would be possible I suppose
as the drivers from wm6 and 6.1 are the same
strange that the software only works on 6.0 never
heard of such a thing wm6 and wm6.1 are 2 of the closest
roms around
