Upgrading the BA ROM - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hi...
I was looking to upgrade my ROM and was reading:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
can someone explain to me what the TYPE TESTING means ? my guess is that where it says 2(passed), this is probably a stable ROM ? i am looking to uplift to a 1.40 ROM
Thanks for any help

Good ROM/Radio Assessment Article

http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=518&more=1
Author's conclusion is that ROM 1.6.7.1 with radio 01.13.10 is the fastest EDGE and USB connection speeds with stable ROM. I'm using a ROM 1.6.11.1 with 01.13.10 radio with great results.
Enjoy

Your iMate KJAM is a HTC Wizard thus the author's recommendation of ROM 1.6.7.1 & Radio 1.13.10 is valid. I have a MDA Vario and flashed to this combo with no problems. There is no "best" ROM as the hardware is basically all the same.
By reviewing this xda-developers section on Wizard, you'll form an impression on what works and what doesn't and the pluses / minuses of each.
All the best,
Craig
Question... What is this making sure your phone is CID unlocked?
Carrier unlocked?
Mine is an unlocked Imate K-Jam?
Can I just upgrade the Rom?
Thanks

Look in aWizard ROM util link
Forgive me gentlemen as I am very new to this specific device... I ran the Awizard tools and used the CID unlock and backed up that file... I'm assuming that is to restore it incase of sending in for warranty?
I then backed up all (radio, rom, extended)
Okay so now my question is... Can I just run the Qtek rom executable or should I used the Awizard tools to do the Radio and Rom seperately...
Is there any difference? Can I even just upgrade by double clicking the executable? Will it give me a new extended rom then?
Finally, is there any software differences between the Qtek and the Imate?
I just want to use the Qtek rom until the latest I-mate rom comes out.
Thanks for your guys help.. I know you will be able to answer my questions....

ROM/Extended ROM confusion

I'm a little confused.
My ROM version is 5.03.02 WWE.
My Extended ROM is Tuma 1.3.
Is my ROM really out of date?
Everyone seems to refer to Extended ROMs as ROMs too so I haven't worked out if I need to update my ROM too. Can someone clarify?
If I was you, I'd read
http://sx66-blueangel.home.comcast.net/
and
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
Thanks for the link Kevino.
It's mainly due to the Wiki that I'm so confused. Everyone seems to use ROM and Extended ROM interchangably.
From the wiki, the TMobile ROM
BA_TMNL_14200_119_11300_Ship.exe
appears to be the latest. Is this what most PH20B users use now? Also, will I need to be careful to change it to English or is the Dutch ROM alread in English?

Please take some time and read before posting. This is important for old and new members alike.
Start in the WIKI and if you get completely lost, then create a post. But please don't expect members to spoon-feed you all the information you can easily find on your own here.
Have "patience" and take your time reading everything associated with unlocking and upgrading a few times before trying anything. You'll be glad you did.

i used this site:
http://modmydiamond.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=26
1. Basically flash HardSPL
2. Flash Radio
3. Flash ROM
That site will show you pictures on how to do each. ITs pretty easy.
You will need to choose a HardSPL and ROM though.
I do recommend Dutty's rom for newbies to flashing.
HardSPL you will probaly need to install Olinex Developer Edition-unsigned.
Radio is optional. you dont have to flash it. However its flashed same way as you flash a rom.

The version of the ROM that you are running requires Hard SPL, so i expect the previous owner has already flashed it.
To check, go into Bootloader mode (instructions can be found in the Wiki).
DO NOT FLASH WITHOUT A HARD SPL!!
