Hi, Does anyone know if there is an update to XDA IIi to Windows Mobile 5.0.
I know there is one for the Himalaya version of XDA.
I have spoken to 02 and they say that it is highly unlikely and would be releasing the XDA II Exec with WM2005. Any info would be gratefully received.
Mod edit: Please be sure to mark requests with [REQ]
Double post deleted.
And there is currently no WM 5 for that device.
Can't the admins just delete these threads and/or ban the thread starters? I mean how many times has this thread been posted, 200, 300?
The thing is that that new people arrives every day.
New people don't know what we know, new people don't/can't consume all the content of this site that fast.
Banning new people won't do xda-dev any good.
Deleting the posts will only give us even more of these post :!:
So the best thing for those that feel irritated by it, just overlook them and move on :wink:
Thread moved from mod. upgrade, unlock to Alpine
WM2005
Apologies to the anybody who is not happy with my post.
Don't worry about them!!!If you don't know,you have the right to ask!!!However,before that you should read some thread about the topic you want to know!!!
Cheers mate
I have been watching posts for two months, and still have not been able to understand "yes", "no" or "maybe soon...."
People talk Blueangel, da da da...
I want clear talk about XDA IIi or Alpine. Don't be jumping on people to review old threads when it is hard enough knowing which model people are actually referring to...
I too am interested in reading if anyone has recently tried a 2005 mod on XDA IIi (Alpine), and what problems they may have encountered.
blueclue7, the WM2005 ROM is not for the Alpine, it is for the Himalaya.
The hardware is totally different between the two devices, it will not work.
There is no WM2005 build for the Alpine yet, maybe never, we don't know yet.
The Alpine has WM2003se, and so far, that is all there is.
WM2003 exists for the Alpine in 2 main versions so far, both have bugs. Most of these bugs would probably be solved by WM2005, but guess what, there isn't a WM2005 build yet.
Oh, by the way, WM2005 for the Himilaya won't work on the Alpine, just as it won't work on the Blue Angel, or the Magician, or any other PPC other than the Himalaya.
hi guys u have just bought an xda2i off ebay. I am regretting it before it has arrived due to the lushness of wm2005 and you guys saying it wont be coming to xda2i. How come its coming to the older xda2 arghhh. I may have to make them program an update at gunpoint.
if you want i can trade you my MDAII? heheh :lol:
WM2005 on XDA IIi
It will be interesting when they release the Universal with WM2005, as it is technically the XDAIIi is similar. So hopefully it will be just a matter of time before someone reverse engineers the Universal Rom for XDAIIi.
Unless of course the 02/I-Mate/Qtek etc do the sensible thing and release an offical upgrade.
I don't see how Microsoft and PDA makers can whine about priacy, when people have spent good money for a new release PDA, only to be told it has the old software and even though it is capable of accepting the WM2005 upgrade....easily, we won't do it cause we don't think our customers are that important, welcome to the money grabbing world of Microsoft and many others.
I hope Microsoft and PDA people read this and learn!!!!

Hello, there is some good news from our friend at blue angel forum, some one from that forum asked his frien if there's any update WM5 for Blue Angel, and his friend (who is HTC rep) said "YES!!!" :shock:
I read that post three times, ( i wondering if my english is really bad or there will be update for HTC Blue Angle ) Here's the link :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=147760#147760
and for me that is "good" new ( May be a bit, but better than nothing), there is a hope they also make up date for HTC Alpine because it's younger :? . Yah... just hope....
or some one will give the WM5 Himalaya cooker a new HTC Alpine????
I'm sure he'll make that (WM5) work on HTC Alpine... :lol:
should we start a petition?
why not ?
WM5
hey... good idea... :idea:
Great News Again
Hei XDA IIi lovers, i got some ( I think good news ), i post some email to O2 asia asking if they will release WM5 for IIi and their answer :
"There are no firm plans as yet to offer this particular upgrade to customers of existing Xda devices"
But.... don't stop there ......., after that they wrote :
"but we are studying market demand for this platform, and we will certainly consider offering it in the future if there are sufficient requests for it from our customers" :shock:
Do you all get it???
they just need to know if there's sufficient request...
I guest i've start my petition.... How about we all start to petition right now.... :lol: :lol:
hehe i wont hold my breath but i might aswell put my name down for the petition.

Gimmie WM2005 NOW !!!
---------------------
Okay, lets finish this thread now, Here are the FACTS !!
WM2005 IS NOT RELEASED YET
The Himalaya build is a internal release by microsoft which was leaked to the world and then modified by our good friends buzz Lightyear and co. This build was specially written for microsoft employees on the wm2005 program as the majority of them have himalaya devices.
This new OS will be released officially on the next generation of XDA devices which will probably incorparate 3G technology as well.
So NO The current WM2005 builds that are doing the rounds WILL NEVER be available for other platforms as the hard ware is completely different from platform to platform.
All you can hope for is that
a) It is officially released for your device then modified like Wm2003SE for Himalaya.
b) Some one will swap you there XDA II device.
c) Get a copy of Wisbar Advance and skin it to look like Magento (This actually looks more polished than the actual WM2005 in my opinion.
I personally have a M1000, Orange version of the XDA II which i upgraded to WM2003SE after 3 days of it arriving, then upgraded to WM2005 1.60b which i am now running..... it's the best phone/thing i've ever had.....plus i got it cheap thanks to a price mistake on Orange's website
Well its been a while since i started the petition and there has been a massive response for it too.
I have sent a couple of E-Mails to O2 about the petition with no response so far, whats new there ??
Anyway, i have almost given up hope for WM2005 on the XDAIIi but we cant say we never tried ehh ?
To date we have near enough 1000 signatures (some duplicates) and if i had thought before hand, i would have limited it to UK and O2 only, prob the biggest flaws of the petition and why i havnt chased it as much as i first hoped to.
Anyway .... we now currently have a more stable ROM, and more importantly, we know why the device hangs on a regular basis when people use SD cards.
I Love my XDAIIi now WM2005 or not
Just for the sake of it .... heres the last stats on the petition if anyone is interested.
Signatures (First and Last Names)
Total number 920
Total number today 16
Total number within last week 116
cheers for info ,it's a pity they don't listen ,because the xda2i is still brand new in my books it's like buying a car and within 1 year you can't get parts
anyway we did try ,i'll remove my link
seem like everybody forgot that there's no WM5 for Alpine and busy with the Blackberry........ im sad about wm5, but i will wait....
Hi all,
MEGA apologies for this....
When I got my xda mini s in August 06 I joined this forum and you guys taught me a load of stuff.
One of the pages I particularly followed was about today screens and various peoples versions of it.
Unfortunately in the last 2 or 3 months my PC has died and I had to rebuild a new one, as a result all my bookmarked pages have been lost.
I HAVE SEARCHED, and can't find it so can someone please post the link to the thread I'm talking about?
Thanks.
Matt.
P.s I've recently seen a fantastic pool game on the wizard with tournament mode etc., I know there must be loads but any ideas on program names?
I'll take that as a NO on both counts then shall I.

I Joined Xda-Dev because i needed help with my imate sp3 it was water damaged i forgot it my trouser and my mother put them in da washing machine anyway i never got it fixed but since then i vist this site everyday. if xda-Dev did not exist i think windows mobile devices will be like a day without sunlight thats why i vist this site at least once or twice a day n datz my reason for joining and staying on xda-Dev
I wanted to look smart
I've posted this before... I wanted to look smart at the at&t forums. I would see questions posted, then come here to find the answer. Then go back and post the answer there. I 'think' I had quite a few people fooled.
Well...I was googling for ways to make my Samsung i760 better, when I had it of course, and stumbled acrossed another forum that discussed the top apps to have on a PPC. S2U2 was on the list, alot, I then came here and couldn't leave!! So, thanks A_C!!
I was a motorola modder from way back, and I wont settle for "stock" when it comes to my phones... I got an S620 and needed to mod it.
Honestly, I don't even remember.
i came searching here when i was upgrading my Hima and the power to my laptop suddenly stoped..it stucked in Bootloader for about 3 months..then i found the solution ( which was veryyyy simple )..and now..i cant move my self from the monitor and xda

htc, htc, where are subfora's for devices like hp4700(and other ones), asus, etc....
maybe it is time to think wider?
I was looking for some software and google brought me here.....since then, I almost daily visit this site and enjoy reading rather than writing.....

thats how i joined and then i left it for a while. came back, got into upgrading roms and then rom development.
all off my things i have posted here(stuff in my sig) is because of A_C
oh and because i knew i was getting a wing for christmas so i had to pack my sd card with apps.
I joined for the huge amount of content already on here and the large number of very knowledgeable people able to help me with my problems.
I joined because i just bought a Kaiser and wanted the best site for info about it, and what it can do ect
well, i was searching the internet for new interfaces for my P4350 phone, when i found this site.
Now, i'm reading the forums every day, looking for new developments, themes, etc
I really like the site, and the people who develop / modify software are really doing good work.
Greetings, Chris
I forget why i joined but it was probably for some stupid reason like i needed help or something.
but i think i might have been the one that seeded the "touchflo minus cube" idea
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333240
probably not. Hopefully yes
My ppc was bloated & ran like cr#p with the OE official rom. So, I discovered this site has some great chefs prepairing excellent rom menu's in the kitchen!
Now my ppc is lean & mean!
i dont remember perfectly...but i think i just found the forum one day, registered, and thought to myself "I may use this later" and then i never went on for a long time, then finally there was wm6 being developed for the sp5, so i started going on. Since then ive stayed around now that i knew this forum was for developing and hacking.
a long time ago.. i was looking for something new... then i saw something new.. Windows mobile 6 Beta releases?... ohh. i should find them.. and Bingo.. i found here a ROM of WM6.. i decided to flash it.. but holy crap.. i f**cked up my wizard.. i was really sad.. and.. then.. i started to find how to fix it.. ..
since then im a member in xda-dev..
with my wizard...
my universal..
and now my kaiser..
(and coming soon my Touch Pro)
I joined because i wanted to learn about smartphones and this is before i had one.
Hi,
did anybody heard about a tuning utility
"diamond.cab"
to increase the speed of the Kaiser?
I just got if from a friend, have not tried it yet, want to ask 1st because my information from this forum is that so far overclocking is not possible on the Kaiser and I do not belive in Voodoo ...
Best regards,
Claus

Let us know how it works!
I was hoping to get some feedback whether anybody is knowing about this cab file before I start ruin my Kaiser ...
I have seen it it running last week on my friends Kaiser (from the US) and he told me that this piecs of software is speeding things up. But it was during a exhbition for only a couple of seconds and than there was no more time for me to have a closer look. Now I got it but I am not quite sure whether I should dare to to give it a try.

Why don't you share the file and let the others try?
If you are worried to try that cab out, why don't you share the cab to this community. Maybe there will be some of us who's gonna try it
Here it is, I was not sure whether I should poste a file right away and get 97 flames because this is known allready (and I must confess that I have not expected that this could be a new information to the community) ..., so therefore I was trying to ask 1st
Claus
PS: Another reason was and is also that I want to avoid making a program public what the developer does not want because it is in an early stage or so, because I have seen discussions that developers stopped their work because some internal beta testers shared the program with the public

I have DL it so will try out soon and report back.

I tried it out and i dont know if it is working or not. I will get back with some updates. I am playing with the screen sensitivity right now. Some of the options wont work..like with the g-sensor.
unfortunately it does not set any reg-entries which we could interpret
I extracted the .exe (which is the only thing in this cab)... don't know what it does ...
if you don't want to install, this is the .exe from cab file

Sorry for the trouble I created, just tested the software and found easily the link of the source.
My friend made it very strange and told me he got this "secret" program at a "corner" from a Chinese guy and that it would increase the clock speed.
From the web site what I understood on the fly is that it is basicaly setting some regestries. Pritty much the same as the dedicated Kaiser Tweak or Schaps Advanced config can do (but those ones are better)
Sorry guys I have not found "Pandoras Box" to speed up the Kaiser
