I just bought an unlocked Cingular SX66 and I will use with my T-Mobile wireless service here in the States. Just curious, is there a ROM I can download and install that is in English, current and either wireless carrier-free or from T-Mobile?
Thanks!
You didn't mention which rom you currently have.
However, there is an updated rom on the Siemans site. Try this link:

HI,
Looking for a place where I can get an updated ROM for the i-Mate PDA2k EVDO. This is sold in Australia as a CDMA model, it appears that it is the one referred to here as 'no sim' model.
I just upgraded the Bluetooth to 3500, and that now works, now trying to see if there is a ROM upgrade as well.
Thankyou,
Adam.
all roms are in wiki under avaliable shipped complete roms
Thankyou, I have found the ROMs.
My question relates to the fact that I am unsure if the standard ROM for GSM/GPRS Blueangel will work in a CDMA (no SIM) Blueangel. There is precious little that I have been able to find on this particular model.
I am going to try the Harrier ROM for the Telstra NZ version, but I feel that may not contain the most recent version of the available software.
Anyone out there tried the latest version in a CDMA?
I currently have a Blue angel running in the UK on a T-Mobile rom, unlocked and actually running on an Orange sim. I would like to update my Rom and believe there is a new version out for T-Mobile. But prior to upgrading my rom I am not fussed which Rom I use. Are there any recommendations on the best base rom out there in the UK?
Is it T-Mobile, Orange, O2 etc. I know they will be much the same but individual providers sometimes provide some extras etc. I believe O2 has the battery status on the home page etc. Can anyone recommend a good flavour of Base ROM???
I believe that the i-mate 1.42 is the best rom for stability, however the latest t-mobile rom is advantageous for those needing Blackberry support. The o2 rom however comes with the o2 active interface, which many people like however it really slow's down your ppc.
I'd advise you go for the i-mate rom. Hope this is of help

I run the UK T-Mobile version 1.42 and it's pretty fast and about as stable as i-mates, imo. I'd say if you're using 1.42 now, you're really not going to do any better, overall, unless you go to WM5. Then, however, you're opening a whole new can of worms as they're all hacks and therefore slow and buggy, comparatively speaking. You can find just about any rom on this site's ftp server, ftp://xda:[email protected]
You may get the T-Mobile Rom here
I advise that you follow the WIKI for installation instructions which may be found here
Enjoy!
Thanks Mark/Splonker my device indicates the rom version 1.06.00 ENG is this the version number I should be looking at??
Also sorry for the addition. Can I just do a full backup of my device contacts etc and when I upgrade restore?? Thanks John.
So .. T-Mobile and I-Mate seem to have a 1.42 base rom out. I can find the Dutch TMO 1.42 one (I have that running now), I can find the UK TMO 1.42 one, but where is the I-Mate 1.42 one? Can't find it at I-Mate and can't find it here at XDA Devs ...
Between these three, which is the best?
xBackup not in T-MOBILE 1.42 Radio DUTCH ROM
Just upgraded to T-MOBILE 1.42 Radio DUTCH ROM got my Wireless problem solved but have another problem NO XBACKUP how can I install it???
still trying to track down the english version of the tmobile latest rom any ideas/links anyone?? Thanks John.
I've found Orange 1.31 ROM/Extended ROM and radio 1.15 the best combination so far. For me, 1.4x ROMs were slower.
My Best Roms
XDA IIs UK from O2
1.Best ROM so far without doubt for me is the BA_TMNL_14200_119_11300_Ship from T-MOBILE
AND its the fastest..
2.Best ROM (slightly slower)
XDA 1.42 115 T-Mobile Firmware
3. I-Mates 1.40 WWE with Radio 1.13
still had an issue with audio dropping from incoming calls
If you've seen any of my previous posts you'll see the hell i've been in trying to get anything to work with these ROMS, now it ALL works. and I dont say that lightly!
i tried the last 2 factory ROMS from O2 UK 140.237 & 140.242 which is there latest and I had WIFI nightmares with both of those..
I have a Cingular 8125 i've unlocked it and now i'm trying to decide if I should just flash it with the Cingular ROM or with the T-mobile MDA US rom since i'll be using the phone with T-mobile...
So what do you think, which has the better ROM?
I also have the Cingular 8125 phone and TMO service. I'm wondering the same thing?
Im doing the same and I use the new summiter cingular rom 2.17 with ad2p etc..... and it works great on my phone. The only thing is that u have to manually put in the mms and internet seetings
USMC2K:
Does the ROM you're using support both the A2DP and AVRCP?
Hello,
I have a t-mobile mda that i've unlocked to use on cingular. i'm looking to upgrade the rom to either t-mobile's 2.26 or cigular's 2.25. Should i upgrade to t-mobile's rom since i have a MDA or should i use cingular's rom since im on their network? which rom would give me the best performance considering my situation.
Thanks.
Try it,

Excellent
Just flashed it. Lots of bugs have been fixed. Seems to go faster too. Been trying out custom roms but not found one i am happy with yet. Cheers
Thank you for this. I will be flashing this rom in a bit. Will update!!
Can this ROM be used here in the US? What have you found in this new ROM that would be worthwhile to Flash?

This rom is not newer than T-Mobile HR's rom
I think it is not newer than T-Mobile HR'rom.Sometimes, it still can not turn on wifi from com manager.
Have to say been testing this with it at 247 on omap and it is very fast looks like a good rom over all
Any other senior members or mods have a take on this rom yet?
It's definitely a newer version than the latest version released by T-Mobile US but I think that in order to use this here in America, you will need to CID unlock your device.

That's just saved my brick Got stuck on bootloader after a failed wm6 flash. This has sorted it out -thanks for the link as I couldn't find it in the usual place on the t-mobile site.
Has anyone tried this with the T-Mobile USA MDA?
If so, how did the upgrade process go? Were you able to upgrade directly from the latest official Tmo USA MDA ROM? Did you have to unlock the phone first?
What advantages and/or disadvantages have you noticed, from the most recent official TMOUSA MDA ROM? Does your MDA run faster now? Does stereo bluetooth work better? Is your MDA more or less stable with this ROM? Any change in its functionality as a phone? Any change in battery life?
Etc., etc., etc., etc., etc.
Will this work for US original MDA rom?
