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.

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

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...
Ady
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!
To prevent confusion I wanted to state again that I am going to be releasing a ROM based on the 2.26 Final ROM, I just need some time to play with it. Expect it in a few days...

thanks for your hard work. I've been using your 2.24 rom for a while now with no complaints.
Do you think you'll be going to make custom roms after this one?
Yoohoo! Thank you Xelecin.
as an EX-SK2 user, xelecin is probably the ONLY reason why i haven't converted to SK3
Xelencin. How's the sidekick III? Do you miss the Wizard yet? Have you played with th TyTN?
I hope T-Mobile is successful in acquiring the spectrum needed for 3G and will be offering 3G devices next year. I'd hate to go back to Cingular or Verizon.

as far as im aware t-mob usa are currently rolling out 3G as we speak... have you heard/read something different....
I don't think T-Mobile has enough spectrum to offer UMTS at this time, that is what they hope to win in the FCC auction that starts Aug 9.
How is the work going? Really looking forward to this ROM. Is there any way to flash it on to Qtek 9100 with your previous ROM (2.24)?
BTW, I've got some weird bug - 9100 (xelencin 2.24, also tested with Mr.Clean 2.24a) can't connect to WPA-protected WiFi networks. Unsecured and WEP are fine.
Anyone met something alike?
And also, what do I need to do to downgrade to Qtek ROM 2.18 RUS (for testing WiFi)?
Any hope for Java in the custom 2.26 ROM?

Wait a minute... are you kidding me? Did Xelecin really dump the MDA for the Sidekick III? I can't believe that, wow I thought that he was loving the MDA like we were. Well Thanks for continuing to upgrage the roms. Why am I some how very dissappointed though?
Your new rom would be great, I just tried to update with the T-Mobile rom and got an "Invalid Vender ID" message. I'm using your 2.24 now.
I have been using the vodafone 750v for a while the Version number is:
TREO750-1.16-VFE
1.12.0c.00
Two problems always happened:
1) The phone suddenly lost all the sound and the mp3 ringtone is terrible.
2) when you pick up the phone, there will be a delay of 3 second because you can hear or speak to the other side.
The first problem can be solve after a reboot but the second problem stay there.
I went to vodafone lately and check the firmware version number of the demo phone which say 1.22.xx.xx( I believe is 1.22.30.00 if I remember correctly)
I ask the service dept of vodafone and they told me that the one they are selling now is no longer 750v ...is 750. Then I ask them if they can provide the upgrade firmware for user to upgrade and they told me that I have to ask palm.
Anybody here is using the Treo 750 with the firmware version 1.22.xx.xx. Can you share the ROM here so we can try if the new ROM could fix the problem?
Thanks
You can download a firmware upgrade from the Vodafone website.
The guy in the store told you wrong unfortunately.

Odd, as there was an update on vodafone.nl a month or two back...
I assumed it would have been posted on the other vodafone sites as well.

Try that one already, it change the firmware from 1.12.0a.00 to 1.12.0c.00
This one doesn't do anything good to the phone.
And this update is English only, no use for those who have their Treos in
an other language.

Try the new WM6 for the unbranded ones, I have one if u need. The treo loses voice notifications because of the usage of driver by too many applications. You can install a patch for the At&T versions.
Tell me if you need that.

I have a few questions in regards to the Treo 750 WM6 rom
Will the AT&T rom work within Australia?
If no why not?
What skillsets are required to make your own rom?
I sincerely thank you for any help.
This should be in the technical discussion. No need for a new thread.
Moderator, can you delete this thread, please?
Hi snowdonx, welcome to xda-dev.
I don't see why it wouldn't work in Australia - but I can't say for sure so someone else will have to give you a definitive answer there.
As far as making your own ROMs - everything you need to know can be learned here. I'd suggest reading some of the newer guides in the Hermes forum to get started.
To give you a head start - there's a couple basic things to be aware of. First, newer devices like the Hermes and Treo 750 will not allow flashing of custom ROMs, or more correctly, ROMs that aren't signed with a carrier or manufacturer certificate. The bootloader (SPL) enforces this. So the first step in getting custom ROMs on a device is putting in place a modified bootloader that allows unsinged ROMs. The number of folks who can do this is very limited compared to the number of folks who can build customer ROMs.
Creating the ROMs, in a nutshell, involves dumping an existing ROM using tools available here, making modifications, rebuilding the ROM, and flashing.
Hope you enjoy your stay here. =)

Yup. Works a treat on Telstra and if you read through the thread you will see it works on Optus and Vodafone too.
and Three too
Does it work on the NextG network on Telstra? i'm pretty sure it should since HSDPA is included on the Treo ROM Upgrade... and how do I get the telstra software and settings onto the treo as well? Do I need to unlock the sim at all?

Hi, I'm in Aus aswell and thinking of getting an unlocked 750V from ebay......just a question about how the IMEI is changed after upgrading to the UNOFFICIAL WM6, what will happen if the OFFICIAL WM6 rom becomes available...are we able to upgrade without problems....i know this has been asked before on other threads but no one seems to know the answer......i guess those that have upgraded to the leaked roms will find out when they try to upgrade the official rom when it becomes available......
Just try the official WM6 ROM in the upload dir on the ftp:
uploads/Treo 750Cheetah/WM6 ROM Cheetah Treo 750v
Download the NBH, put it on an empty memory card and insert it into the Treo
Push the sidebutton (below the volume keys), the right softkey below the display and reset with the stylus (all together) and the bootloader starts and you can upgrade the treo to WM6 with HSDPA enabled.
Cheers mate!
thanks, also what are the main differences between 750 and 750v models?.....apart from the word 'vodafone' stamped on the actual phone.....

the main difference is that the Vodafone firmware has Vodafone presets and Vodafone theme next to the standard Windows themes and settings. (Customisation for Vodafone). In the original WM5 rom, there was no messenger available. In WM6 the Live Messenger is back ! Other than that, I don't think there are other differences.
this ROM appears to come from Vodafone (AU)
CE OS: 5.2.1239 (Build 17746.0.2.4)
Firmware version: 1.47.02.00
so far so good...
So it's almost the same, just Firmware version on AT&T is newer: 1.47.02.00 VS Firmware version: 1.47.25.00
yes, nothing unexpected. (баян)

Aight. Thanks for the info.
Hi guys,
Someone has uploaded the Vodafone WM6 ROM onto the FTP site. PLEASE MIRROR!
(Originally thought to be Generic -- it is indeed the Vodafone ROM)
You can download from:
ADMIN EDIT: File has been removed due to legal complaints from palm.
Good news:
- it is more 'naked', Vodafone do very little with the ROM
- HSDPA enabled by default
Bad news:
- it is the same WM6 build as the AT&T ROM
- Still need to run Treo 750 Update Recovery Tool if you have problems not receiving phone calls
WM6 build 17746.0.2.4
Firmware 1.47.02.00
Free memory on first boot: 52.11MB Storage, 26MB Program
Not completely naked, is a Vodafone branded ROM.
Very light branding if compared with the ATT one, but the voda rom is older than the ATT version.
I think is better to use the newer rom and then proceed to debrand.
BTW the vodafone rom is better for lazy people
re
Yeah the Vodafone ROM is definitely much easier bring back to basics if you can't be bothered with extrom etc...
I'm actually still having the issue with no incoming ph calls on this ROM too. Am running Treo recovery tool and testing now
re
Thanks to "The Solutor" for info saying it is a Vodafone ROM
The Treo Update Recovery Tool doesn't delete any data btw, you can safely run it at a later date after you've flashed with WM6 and sync'd your data.
Update Recovery Tool fixes the no incoming call issue. Don't know how! But it does
