Device Lock from Tuma WM5 ROM for WM2003SE? - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hey all,
I had to downgrade back to WM2003 from WM5 due to speed issues, and while things are fine, I find that I really miss the device lock button on the today screen.
Can someone grab the CAB for that and throw it on the FTP server?
Thanks!

would be nice if we could use that on wm2003se

So it won't run on 2003SE?

i don't know
i just wanna say i would like that on my ba with wm2003se

TuMa 1.3 causes unregular Resets on my MDA. So I tried the "BA WM2005 5.03.02WWE - standard upgrade" from Buzzdev.net. Works fne for me. But I´d like the Device lock and the Bat Meter, too. I found no place to download. Any Ideas?

No, it is not going to work. Code compiled to WM5 is not going to run under 2003SE (only the other way around).

i do need that cab
cam aNy one put it here :?:

BlueAngel WM5 on FTP!

There is a file pda2K_2k5.rar on FTP that contains the WM5 ROM for BlueAngel. Origin of the file is unknown, flashing it to my device showed that it is really a WM5 ROM that is working. The OS version is 5.1.1700 build 14343, it has MS bluetooth stack and no camera. The camera drivers are present, so I think it would be possible to extract app from Himalaya ROM.
It has no MMS application and no SIM toolkit.
I've repartitioned DOC, so now I have 61Mb storage area and 128Mb RAM that are fully accessible.
All hardware buttons are working, and the keyboard is working fine, though there is no control panel applet that allows you to turn off its backlight.
Making hardreset is tricky - you have to press camera, record, power and reset buttons simultaneously. There you'll have a choice to use debugger (something about KITL), reset registry and format built-in storage. Navigation in menu is done with camera and record buttons, exit - "mail" button.
Thanks download now .
great it working thanks
So glad I worked late tonight...
Unbelievable! :shock:
Awesome etc.
I think the simplest thing to say is: THANK YOU!
That will not stop me from buying a native WM5 PDAphone like the Universal or the Wizard, but still I'm really happy this happened. If only that could force O2, I-Mate, Qtek etc. to sell an official upgrade, that would be nice...
Until now, I had to put my BA in reserve and used my XDAII for everyday for a single problem: BT!!! Maybe the MS stack here will do as good as the one in my XDAII 1.72. Just need my GPS and headset to work properly. The rest is luxury at this point.
BTW, Mamaich, is the procedure similar as the one for Himalaya WM5? Any difference?
Cheers,
Hal
Mamaich, it's time to make tweaking for the camera and especially the O/S speed.. :?
Did someone take down that RAR file? I can't seems to find it anywhere under BA section on the FTP site.

Sweet!! Thank you!!
maybe we can get the mms application from the universal?

At first we need a ROM image rom Universal or better an official ROM update.
unbelievable brother mamaich...but its true... :lol:
Erm...
This is not the same file as on Buzzdev.net is it?
The version is different.
Think I'd have better luck with this one?
Hi Mamaich,
I installed WM5.0 on my PDA2k but unlike you, i only got 49MB storage space. How is it that you got 61MB while i got only 49MB. What did i do wrong?
Also, why am i not able to synchronise with outlook after the rom upgrade?
Thirdly, i can pair my BT headset with my PDA2k but it does not transfer any calls to the headset. I tried using a BT GPS and that works perfectly fine. What do u suppose the problem is?
Would appreciate your comments.
UD.
Has anyone here yet or not weather or not this will work with Sprint or Verizon CDMA phones yet?
Wherez the ROM on the FTP, i searched but i couldnt find it. Its not under BA. Where is it? Is it different from the one that Buzz had on his site?

Hi all
I´ve searched the registry with no luck at all... Is there anyway to lower the backlight brightness? Cause like this it drains the battery really fast! Rudra was right :?
Hey btw i´ve tried my Bt headset and it works better than before!! at least i can go like 5 - 6 meters from my phone and still hear the caller

Upgrading WM5 on i-Mate PDA2k

can anyone tell me the performance of WM5 on the i-mate PDA2k, is it slow,, fast?/, just tell me so i upgrade...thx
IMHO, it's unacceptable slow. I downgraded my device to 2003SE back.
No phone after upgrading my i-mate!!
After upgrading to WM5 my phone don't work anymore:
Error: Unknown SIM Status
Can you help me?
Thanks
Amulet
Well, I must agree that WM5 slows down your PDA... for me its performance was kind of acceptable, but still noticeably slower. Especially if u install many applications.
I was just curious to see how WM5 looks like on my MDA III and how it works, but I haven't been satisfied with the results (slower and active sync couldn't recognise device)
so I downgraded it back to 2003SE. For now I think I'll wait a bit more to see how things with WM5 and this device will develop.
If u know why and what are u doing than u can try to upgrade, but imho if it ain't broken... :wink:

I was (really I am who knows if it will arise again) having this same problem. Have made a follow up to the problem and it seems like the error reproduces if you take the battery out of the device.
I was able to have SIM service again (after many attempts) by resseting it.
I thought it was a problem with my SIM (its already 4 years old). Is yous as old as mine?
Please note my device model.

I think it will depend on the kind of device you own. On my PDA2k (BlueAngel) WM5 runs even faster than 2003SE.
Some minor problems, though... :roll:
Agree with arieltools as my Orange M2000 (ba) runs perfectly acceptable.

Hm-m... Today I'm not sure. I've just tried again and have found that just flashed wm5 works pretty fast, almost like 2k3se. I suppose it becomes slow after some software is installed, maybe spb pocketplus 3.0 ore something... It's very important to make some hacks.
I switched registry to file mode, turned off animation and GUI sounds.
For more information try to search forum about tweaks2k2 wm5.

Yep, I agree with that. Just flashed WM5 worked really great for me, but than again, sync didn't work (yep, i could reinstall XP, coz i know that AS will work in that case) and as soon as I upped some software from other pc, WM5 started to sink... Just to explain, applications worked relatively fast when they started, but getting to them (start - programs etc.) was really slow.
If anyone has good performance results with MDA III (T-Mobile) and WM5 (with some applications on it) i would like to hear about that.

8125 w/ 2.16.9.101: looking for feedback on stability

Any of you 8125 owners who installed the imate 2.16.9.101 release have any new feedback on how it's going? Are there still issues with the connection icons or wifi connectivity?
I'm eager to get push mail working and have not been able to get a straight answer from a dozen different folks at Cingular on when their release will come out...so I might give the imate release a shot.
What about going back to the shipping Cingular version after installing the imate update - is it easy/possible? Any problems with extended ROM?
thx
I never even used the phone with the original cingular firmware, I went directly to the Q-tek Test rom. From that rom to this rom, the radios seem a little better (getting better signal, edge seems slightly faster, wifi picks up network much faster) and for some reason the whole feel is "snappier" seems like the menus and such load faster. I haven't had any stability issues, and push is working perfect.
I dont' know about the much faster part, but mine is very stable since i removed battery pack pro. I have SPB's power plus as well as their weather software.
if there are any software you want tested just let me know. Well if I can atleast run it without having to buy it, (i.e. Demos, etc.)
Bluetooth, Wifi, Edge, and signal are all real good. (signal on par with 1.12 radio as well as faster to get a signal than it was)
Battery icon is NOT on the bottom and does NOT show more than 2 bars ( so you have full, somewhere in between, and low).
Battery life seems pretty good, but I can't compare it to any other version as I had the phone 36 hours before I upgraded it to this version.
Great thanks for the feedback yall. So once I do the upgrade, how hard will it be to go back to the shipped version if I ever need to? I have everything backed up using awizard, but I understand there could be problems trying to go to a previous version. I think downgrading via the bootloader mode requires executable rom images, but there isn't one available for the shipping version.
You can still downgrade to an old imate ROM and then use aWizard to restore your cingular ROM.
I have installed it on my Qtek 9100.
I hanged 5 times in 2 days.
What is more annoying is when it hangs and
someone tries to call me at the same time, the
other party hears my phone ringing, but my
Qtek is dead silent.

Is your wifi working OK? If so, did you install any of the cingular exrom customizations?
Just curious, because I installed the released imate rom and everything is working like a champ except wifi. I installed some of the original customizations from the cingular exrom and I wonder if one of those cabs did something to the wifi config...
What kind of porblems are you having with the wifi?

It won't turn on.. =)
I thought perhaps it was one of the cingular customization cabs I installed from the original exrom, but now I'm not so sure. I looked at all the cabs and the only one that relates to wifi is the cab that sets the key to enable talking to 802.11g APs.
In comm manager, if I click the wifi icon, it appears to attempt to start wifi, but then goes back to an "x" over the wifi button. The wifi radio doesn't start and the left LED that blinks when wifi is on does not come on.
I wish there were some logs to look at on this thing to see why it's failing to start wifi..
Solved the wifi problem. It appears to be related to something in one of the original 8125 exrom cabs. I reinstalled the new imate rom, skipped the imate exrom install, and only installed a couple cabs from the 8125 exrom. The cabs I installed that did not affect wifi were the mms config, the gprs account config, and the edge icon.
All is now well. If I had the time and patience I'd tear apart the original 8125 cabs to see which one might cause wifi probs, but at this point it's not necessary.
I'll stick with it as-is now until cingular releases their own update...assuming that happens before the hermes is out.. =)
I have a Dopod 838 (identical to 8125, I suppose). The new ROM has worked awesome for me. Better in every way. Even the infamous Activesyn problem went away
I am getting ready to take the plunge...just in case...
does anyone have the original 8125 ROM?
I use SPB backup can restore a backup after I upgrade?
I installed this rom on my 9100, and it is much better than it was with any of the other roms including the original shipped rom!
The radio is much clearer and the wifi hooks up faster and runs better, and I have had absolutely NO lock ups at all.
Later
I am thinking of installing it on an 8125...
Without a backup 'known good' ROM to revert back to I am cautious

I added the extROM files one by one to see which one caused the wifi issue and it was Signed-gprsstall_128.sa.cab...so far. It was only the third one in a series of 17. I'll see what happens when I add the rest. This cab file moves a radio.dll file around.
I've installed this ROM on 2 8125's. Much better and faster than Cingular's ROM. The only thing I did was to install the Cingulcustomize_No_Emails.cab, Microsoft Voice and TRE Pocket PC registry editor and remove all traces of the Voice Command. WiFi connects to my secured access point flawlessly (though I never use WiFi) and the AKU2 push email typically has my emails coming in in about 8-10 seconds from my Exchange 2003 server. Very infrequent lockups, much less than any other ROM I've installed.
Just my two cents worth ...
Steven
ROM version: 2.16.9.1 WWE
ROM date: 2/6/06
Radio version: 02.07.10

Step by step to 2.16
I have a cingular 8125. I'm no stranger to flashing roms, I had a SX66 that was running WM5 and I reloladed it all the time. I'd like to see a step by step guide for unlocking the ext rom, flashing the radio and system roms for the 8125. Anyone know a post with that info in it?
Thanks!

Interesting you say you're no stranger to flashing ROMs but then ask for a step by step.
It's laid out quite well in several topics, but basically:
-Use awizard and enable rapi
-Use awizard and CID unlock
-Use awizard to back up Extrom, radio, splash, os
-Run the executable RUU installer for the imate
-On first boot, as soon as you get prompted to choose a carrier, do a soft reset to prevent the imate ext rom stuff from loading
-Install desired customization items from your backed up cingular ext rom. Any of them can be installed EXCPET the gprsstall cab - it will kill your wifi.
There is currently no way to unlock the ext rom in the lates imate upgrade, so you're stuck with what's in there, but you don't have to let it install.

The most stable WM5 ROM

I have been reading many of the forums around here and they say that all the new ROMs are unstable and for "testing" only. I realize we are in uncharted waters here since the BA doesn't really have a WM5 upgrade but I would just like to know... of all the WM5 ROMs out there, which one is the most stable? Nevermind if the ROM is old or outdated or if it has AKU 2.3 or not. I just want a WM5 ROM that has the least amount of bugs.
Ivan probably provided the most stable rom so far, u can search thru the forum or jump onto the ftp and grab his latest rom.
base on Ivan's rom, midget has incorporte the RAMDisk into the rom.
i suggest u grab midget's rom though.

Ivan but WM2003 better
I would vote for Ivan's latest ROM. It was the last WM5 rom I used before I decided to ditch and go back to WM2003 for good. I have to tell you, the speed alone is worth downgrading back to WM2003. Sending text messages with WM5 was an absolute nightmare, bootup was slow, everything was just generally less responsive which frustrates me when I'm in a hurry. I just didn't see the benefits I was expecting, most of my software works better and faster with WM2003 anyway. But my vote goes to Ivan's since it was the most stable ROM I found (out of Tuma's, Logout's and Ivan's) Peace.

this man is correct, all progs and stacks will run faster on 2003se. I've been testing a lot doing some benchmarks and well I believe that the ivan 32mb set or 64mb are the fastest.
Let's see this infamous aku 3.0 though, Windows Mobile 5 is more than possible on this device hardware wise.
when u say ivans rom is it the latest v1.2 with 32 ramdisk
till now i prefer logout
ftp://xda:[email protected]_Updates/Logout/Logout_WM2K5_5.4.03_HN.rar
in term of speed, Logout's rom is the fastest, but from time to time, there are problems with it, the phone function is dead gotta hard reset to fix it, certain errors keep poping up and not to mention sometimes it lose wireless configuration.
In terms of speed? Logout's is ridiculously slow on my sx66 compared to ivan w/ramdisk 1.2 or helmi's aku 2.3 beta.
I can't say anything about the others, as I have only used Helmi.
What can I say? I am impressed.
1) Boots much faster than 2003SE
2) I haven't noticed any slowdown. the machine seems responsive enough for me.
3) GPRS autoconnects when an app needs it. It needed manual connection on 2003SE, and more often than not also needed a reboot to work
4) Things seem to 'just work' less soft resets overall.
Caveats:
1) havent tested wifi
2) havent tested bluetooth
3) havent tested using the phone as a modem, for a computer to browse using GPRS
I am enjoying my WM5 time so far.
Another Runner...
Interestingly I had found both Ivan w/RAMDisk and helmi-c's AKu 2.3 ROM's to be really good... and then after a faux pas in my hacking I broke helmi's so tried Midget_1990's AKU 2.3 v1.1... it has no RAMDisk, however I am sure it could be added...
But it is by far the most stable WM5 ROM I have used to date... it's been installed since Friday (Ithink, maybe Thursday?) I've had no freezez, no hangs, Wifi workds, MSN works, GPRS works... the speed is up there with the best of them, I've installed all sorts on it, including TomTom 5.21, and GPStoGoogleEarth and they both work faster than on a stock WM2003SE build... SPB Diary, Time Weather and Backup run smoothly, Eten Pack installs with no issues as does the Eten Dialler and various other bits 'n' bobs... more than happy, and I think I'll stick with it until he either releaases a new 2.3 (or even 3.0) version or I can find the time to build my own!!
Midget 1.2 is on it's way, if i can get it finished then tonight, if not next weekend when i'm back from work. It will be aku 2.3 as aku 3 is really not worth bothering with atm.

I know what you mean about AKU 3.0... I can't even get the display right... seems to be running at the wrong display mode (like win98 at 8bit!!), but I am impressed with the initial spped of the ROM, once I can get the display fixed I think I'll play with it for a bit and see what I can get to work with it...
Will your 1.2 have a RAMDisk?

In regards to that, your 1.1 ROM clicks a lot on WMP (works okay on TCPMP though) and even with the reg entry for the Audio Priority I can't get rid of it, is there anything other than the WaveDev Priority Reg Entry I could try?
As for the display thing in AKU3.0... was it okay for you out of the box (just using the dev tools from the site)? Or did you have to work on anything, I've flashed it twice now and have had no luck... off to try a third time

wm6 backpack?

anyone tried to get the backpack workin on wm6?
I installed the wm2003 drivers, but just like wm5... it didn't work out..
i think if wm5 dont play nicely with it nor will wm6
it dont have drivers in it for other devices then what build in
so the question is wm6 is more likely to work with 2003 drivers
then wm5 is
@Bstard have you tried if the backpack at least does add battery life?
I installed the wm2003 driver and nothing happend, the system didn't recognize the battery ;-(
didn't test if there is extended battery life with the backpack attached

hi, i tried to on my Wm6, also didnt work.
Can you upload driver?
i want to try that makes work.
I tried this morning. To my surprise the VGA output from the backpack works. Unfortunately that's the least important feature for me. I can't find a CF card and it doesn't show up in battery status.
Unfortunately there are some other good reasons to uninstall these drivers now:
-phone dialer and/or xcpuscalar keep on popping up when I close other programs
-activesync refuses to connect
I very much appreciate Asukal's offer to look into it, I tried to upload the drivers I own but I get the error message "Upload backpack.zip failed" time and time again
Update: several versions of drivers can be downloaded from this thread on buzzdev:
http://buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_phorum&Itemid=125&phorum_query=read,6,267,1580#msg-1580
BTW Rictec is the only person that I found so far in any forum saying he had backpack battery status running in WM5
Several people have VGA output running under WM5 and WM6
I haven't found anyone who claims to have CF card functioning
