newb question

i'm new to this forum i just wanted to ask for some advice, i've just got the xda IIi on the o2 network in the uk.
now i was told not to upgrade the rom as it would kill the battery life.... is this true?
currently here is my system info
ROM Version 1.11.00 WWE
ROM Date 01/27/05
Radio Version 1.00.0
Protocol 1337.39
all help would be much appreciated.
any1?
If you do a search you will find lots of posts, on what roms are best for the IIi.
I personaly didnt notice much difference in battery life when I changed rom it was stability that improved greatly, need to do a soft reset less.

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.

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....

Radio 02.07.10 with T-Mobile stock MDA ROM?

Hey all,
Sorry to bother but here is a quick yes or no type question for you. I noticed that the people upgrading to the 2.16.9.1 also receive a new 02.07.10 radio ROM. I'm looking to resolve reception issues with my MDA and would like to apply only the radio ROM to my otherwise stock MDA. I have already applied 01.13.10, but I'm hoping that a newer ROM could yield better and more reliable reception. Is this possible or do I need the entire new ROM to use this new radio one? I was sent an aWizard rip of this radio and would like a few opinions before I try to apply it. Thanks.

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?

math
thanks mate!! has it got the new calander tab??
Can somebody extract the orange ringtones from this ROM?
Mike.
I'd dumped the same ROM version and posted it a few weeks ago, but didn't quite get the same reception as you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=511713
But anyway, my file size is slightly different from yours (a few KBs), I wonder why?... have you tried flashing your device with the original ROM, does it work?
Can you compare the remaining the numbers, are they all the same?
These are for my post:
Operator version: 34.119.1.611
ROM version: 1.19.61.1 WWE
ROM date: 11/25/08
Radio version: 1.09.25.14
Protocol version: 52.49a.25.26U
orange rom ringtones
Mike, these are the ringtones on the orange rom.

TESTing
did any body test the rom?
The Orange rom hasn't changed for months. They've had two versions since release.
original spl
hi i might need to reinstall the original rom on my phone for warranty purposes - so am grateful it is here - unfortunately i cannot remember what the original spl was having since installed a hspl to flash some cooked rom's - can anyone tell me what the original spl was with this so i can reinstall it.
thanx
I noted the original SPL as 1.14 on my stock orange. Just about to redo mine from a 1.56 HSPL version, as the screen has gone again! Grrr, hopefully works!

HSPL 1.14 is to be used for all roms based on pre 1.56
HSPL 1.56 is to be used on all roms based onm 1.56+
Hopefully this will stop future screen issues
Thanks wasn't the differing colour screens BTW, I meant the touch had stopped responding, had to downgrade before sending back to Orange. 2nd Touch HD that has broken on me with the same problem! And BTW I used the ROM on this thread and it was an orange 1.14.22273... Not 1.19?1! Got the new one, and going to make a backup of the ROM which IS a 1.19...
