Why a extended rom, pros and cons (I need to understand) - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General

In a upgrading process (from a Vodafone to a Qtek rom) I lost the extended rom. Now I have the rom 1.11.00WWE without extended rom. My Alpine seams to be working good. So my question ( as a noobie) is: Which are vantages and disvantages of having a extended rom installed? Thank you

Extended Rom needed for WWE version for K-JAM

Hi Ppl,
I just upgraded my device from the arabic rom to the wwe rom available on Imate's web site. However since the extended rom version seemed unchanged, i deleted the extended rom and reinstalled the shipped WWE rom again.
Now my EXTENDED ROM is empty and I have completed freaked out. Can some one please forward a link or email the extended rom files to me so that I can incorporate them into my device.
Regards
Ahmed
I believe it is on the FTP server here.

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?

Cannot change ROM

hi everyone
I have an unbranded, never been locked, K-JAM
I recently installed the ROM from the clubimate site without problems
K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020710_ship
IPL/SPL - 2.16.0001 (G4?)
ROM: 2.16.9.1 WWE
Radio: 02.07.10
EXTROM: 2.16.9.101
the RRU during the upgrade showed 2.5.2
Every cooked ROM i try i get errors ranging from read errors, wrong RRU or the EXTROM/ Radio upgrades but not the OS.
As a bit of a noob, could someone please outline what ROMs i can install and how to install them
many thanks
You have a G4 device like me, try my cooked rom. It has the latest OS and Radio 2.26/2.25, extended rom also contains some extra programs like NoviiRomte deluxe 4.0, will definitely work on your device.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Wizard/Roms/Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii+CF2.rar
thanks Wlove
Worked perfectly and seems quicker
If you ever put together a 3.2 based ROM then I'll certainly be interested
that's a nice idea. I will give it a go.

[ROM]RUU_BlackStone_HKCSL_WWE_1.19.831.0

Hi there!
Quick question: I currently have 1.14.479.3 WWE ROM.
Any advantages to go with RUU_BlackStone_HKCSL_WWE_1.19.831.0 ?
Should I see any improvements going from 1.14 to 1.19?
Thanks good people!
did you flashe
was wondering if you had flashed the 1.19 rom over the 1.14? any differences?
i'd like to know too
I'm interested to know also.
My phone is an original 1.19 French with Orange.
I already changed the rom radio and rom 6.5
But the 1.19.25581 never changed (indicated when i start my phone)
Is it that link to a Hardware Drivers?
