Help guys i need the upgrade rom.were can i download his from.
cheers
You can't get an update. T-mobile haven't released a newer rom yet and I am wondering if this will ever happen. First they would release it in March, then they said in June. However, I think they will never release an AKU2 rom for the vario. I am also waiting for it, but they(T-mobile) suck when it comes to updates.
Just sent an email to TMO-NL yesterday (again), no response yet...

Hi All,
I have been reading the posts on this forum for the last 5 days and just need some advice.
Just got the Mini S and woudl like to know what ROM to upgrade to, various posts mention the QTEK or the IMATE and to be honest I am a little confused.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I need to use the lokiwiz program to unlock the SIM and CID before I attempt the upgrade ?
Thanks
Dan
You would also need to remap the keyboard as the O2 version has a different keysheet. The O2 build with push will be available within the next week or so.

I'm in a similar boat to the OP. Been watching the forums for a couple of weeks and am finally in a position to upgrade the ROM - still not sure to go QTEC or iMate....and now Lord Buckingham throws O2 back in the mix!!
@ Lord Buckingham - can you qualify where you have heard the news about the O2 ROM as all I have seen is pure speculation so far on these forums?
If any other Mini S owners can comment on the QTEC/iMate ROM argument that would also be a great help!
thanks.
I've just installed the Qtek 2.17 Rom on my mini, but now i'm having activesync problems. Not sure it's related, although I am tempted to try the Kjam 2.16 rom to see if it's any better. Will let you know when i've installed it...

I've been using the iMate 2.16.9.1 rom since it came out in feb, and it works fine for me. Dtharby, To answer your question you do need to use lokiwiz to unlock the SIM and CID before upgrading
After hacking around on my Laptop, I've resolved the activesync issue I was having, without going back to 2.16. So 2.17 seems stable, fast and bug free so far...
thanks guys. It's reassuring to hear there's some Mini S users in the UK that have has success with the new ROMs.
I think I'll try flashing tonight....maybe going to go for QTEC (just cause it came out later!!)
One last thing - is it actually possible to roll back to the shipping O2 ROM from these new 2.x ROMs?
cheers!
Just bought a O2 mini s. I've seen loads of posts regarding roms.
Any opinions which is the latest & best rom for the mini s??
Any help/advice wud be great! Thanx
Use the latest O2 Rom
O2 have just released the latest ROM pack which you can download from the XDA section of the site. It is working well for me. It is definately better than the original and and the QTEK ROM I was using whilst I waited for the AKU2 updated ROM from O2.
I understand that O2 are delaying shipping the Mini S phones whilst they upgrade it is possible that you have the latest ROM if purchased in the last few days.
This may be a silly question, but could I simply run lokiwiz on my MDA Vario (hasn't even arrived yet) and then use the latest O2 update or is there an IMEI check to prevent me from doing this?
thanks
Rob
O2 mini s ROM
Thanx for the info, i had noticed O2 had made a recent rom updated when i researched the product before buying. Mine is in transit & should arrive 2moro with any luck.
It may well have the new rom, this might be a silly question but how will i know if it has the new rom pre-installed??
When you 1st turn on the device, or whenever you soft reset the device, the rom version will be displayed in the bottom right of the boot screen.
You may also be able to find out by going into settings and clicking the about icon.
Rob
hi marcel
I'm just correcting my previous post the rom version shows at the top left on the wizard when booting after a softreset mine arrived today and is running 1.6.2.4.
you can also check this in the device information applet in settings.
this isn't the latest rom available but it seems to operate very quickly so i'm gonna stick with it until tmobile release an offical update. (or until i get bored and can't help fiddling with it.)
hope thats some help

Anyone have an original shipped Vodafone ROM? Upgraded to the Cingular release and wanting to revert back, didn't see it posted in the wiki or FTP.
I'd like to do the same thing actually. I think the Cingular ROM has made my 750 a little unstable. Either that or Cingular's doing stuff to the network in my area and it's affecting my phone. I think it's the Cingular ROM though.
I too am seeing funny things going on with the Cingular ROM installed. I want to go back to the Voda ROM (original version).
I have search MANY forums all over the world and cannot find the original Voda ROM for this phone.
Whoever gets it, please let me know so I can get it.
Thanks
Did anybody find it?
You will need to wait until Vodafone releases an update for the Treo 750v before you can restore their ROM.
I have a original Vodafone ROM, well its unlocked but I don't know how to copy it, if someone will guide me through it, I wouldn't giving it up to everyone.
Vodafone ROM please?
Hi,
I just bought a Used 750v - it was originally the Vodafone 750v but it looks like the Cingular ROM has been installed on it.
I am looking to Restore it back to the Factory Default.
thanks!
I hear new Vodafone rom for the 750v will be out at the end of the month (End of Jan), this will also be of a higher AKU... Still no HSDPA support, that comes in March/April time with another update....

I guess keep an eye out her or other forums. I am guessing a Palm will act to get them removed from the site if they are hosted here.

You see the build I am running?
Ok... so you appear to have WM5 AKU 2.6 on your 750v. Maybe the ROM is coming hopefully sooner than later.

So if you already have the new build, why don't you share it, or tell us when to expect the new rom? I can't wait for a new rom, I hope it fixes some nasty bugs on my treo..
I'd rather have a Cingular ROM than a Vodafone ROM with AKU2.6...AKU2.3 and AKU2.6 aren't really different at all. But an AKU3.x ROM, now we're talkin...
I'd rather have a Voda ROM since I don't want/need the Cingular customizations. I also don't use MSN messenger so that one is a non-issue.
Hi there,
Have spotted that Calico had an original French-ROM 750v.
Calico, if it remained untouched, are you considering exchanging it with my original English-ROM version? Where are you based?
Cheers, Dom
Oops sorry... wrong post...
Well after several calls to UK Orange business tech support they have send me the ROM update file:
RUU_Kaiser_ORANGE_UK_3[1].28.61.0R_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.16.25_Test.EXE
They didn't know when it would be officially released, but if you are needing 6.1 and don't wont to void your warranty with Hard SPL - there is a solution you can ask for.
PS - comes up with "test only" in orange boot screen - cool
Can you not upload this somewhere so we can download it?

This is great news, ive been in contact with orange tech support regarding this file for a few weeks now since i found the update page without the link to the new file, if you could upload this somewhere that would be fantastic!
Your having better luck than me with T-Mobile, I have been on at them for 3months now and all I have been told is July/August to coinside with the Vario 4 release.
Congrats dude.
Right I have been onto orange technical support now for about an hour i have quite an eager assistant. He is doing some serious digging, he has come back to me with the official report which is:
Although there is an official update page there is no official update file as yet as orange software writers have to remove all the "good stuff" and replace it with "orange junk". Within the coming weeks an update file may appear without any notice to orange customers. If orange is not happy with the software due to bugs or technical reasons the update maybe delayed as orange want all their customers to be happy
I sent him back saying I want the test file, so he has gone to get in touch with his friend in the business technical support

Hi
I had a problem with my Orange Kaiser so i have just had it replaced
It has Rom Version 3.28.61.0 WWE installed
and radio 1.65.16.25
Operator Version 24.328.1.610
CE OS 5.2.19212 (Build 19212.1.0.3)
It's not the test version so it must be ready for release.

Is there anyone in the community that can provide upload instructions for the ROM.
they say its only avaliable to business customers, more to come when i chance to write it...
if you are an orange business customer please get in contact with orange and get us that update
That's BS!
I am a Business customer and Business Customer Services knew nothing about it!!
I saw your post and got all excited, so I called them!!
If anyone does get hold of it, I would love a link!

hmmm let me think..... will a rom specifically written for the TYTNII work on a completely different phone... LOL why not try one of the custom roms, in the touch dual section of this forum?
So from what i hear its released today, officially? Has anyone else heard other wise?
Hasnt 6.1 been out officially for a while now? from what i hear, the official ones not worth the upgrade. Id just upgrade with a cooked rom for now
Opps, sorry for not being specific. But, the AT&T release, the official one, I read about the almost official releases and there is some complications. So anyone?
Nope its not out yet....
