Installing WM5 on imate pda2k - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hi
I have just brought a i-mate PDA2k and looking to install WM5 on it im thinking of going with
Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU3.5_v1.4.CF2
or
AKU3.5.2 R5 Rom Kitchen v2
I have read the wiki and thinking of going with AKU3.5.2 R5 Rom Kitchen v2 because it has a step by step install guide.
Another thing is i dont want to brick my device whats the posibility that this will happen ?
Thanks

The Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU3.5_v1.4.CF2 is very easy to install, just put your device on "update" mode and run the update program.
The xplode AKU3.5.2 R5 Rom Kitchen v2 you can customize it, select what you want on your rom. The only thing you need a good computer to build the rom fast enough.
Basicaly they're the same.

thanks for the reply
One other thing i forgot to say is that is it easy to go back to wm2003 can i back up the wm2003 thats already on my imate before i try and upgrade to wm5
This is all i need to do isnt it
1. Put your device in Bootloader mode
2. Place your device to the cradle
3. Run software upgrade utility and follow the onscreen instructions
4. Perform WM5 Hard Reset
Im just double checking
And can someone explain more about this
"In cooking it is very important to not exceed free sectors of the rom"

Installed it fine
I have installed
Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU3.5_v1.4.CF2 R2
and it works great

Just Get Wizard, and have some questions

Hi there!
I've just get a Wizard, and it has a GER ROM. I'm qiute bad at german, (and english too) so I want to upgrade it to a WWE ROM. My question is, what is the most clean, and fastest ROM, and where can I download it? I think there must be a step by step for newbies, but where is it? (post link please),
If I upgrade my rom, will the slide-keyborad changes from QWERTZ to QWERTY? (Letter Z changes to Y?)
Where can I found additional reg tweaks, and modification (such as overclocking) to speed up my Wizard? Which of them is the most useful?
Sorry for the many quetions. Now you should ask "Why don't you use the Search button above?", sorry but I'm too excited about upgrading to WWE, but after I've done with that, I'll use it.....Sooory
Cheers,
Hi, you need to upgrade to aku2 imate rom.
download this http://www.clubimate.com/support/KJAM/ROM/K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020710_ship.zip
unzip it
and then activesync your phone to the pc and run above exe.
(no need to unlock your phone as it is an imate rom)
Yes the keyboard will probably change but can be changed for your language use registry wizard see here and download version r and install
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=39725
dont forget you also need to install this OpenNETCF.SDF.wce4.armv4.cab http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=9341
to get registry wizard to run. (reg wizard has the other tweaks you wanted)
For overclocking see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=40284
Thanks for the help. I've upgarded my Wizard with Summiter's rom, but my WiFi couldn't get work. so I'll try the iMate ROM ASAP.
Other questions about phone:
When I get it out of the box, it has a T-mobile ROM on it, and it has the ability to dispaly cell information.( about which town you are in), now my new ROM hasn't got this feature. Was it a Cab customization, or just an option in the WM5.0?
There is a thread here about cell info and a program you can try. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=46803
Also you can get cell info from gsmtestmode.exe in \windows on the device and make a link to it.

Dial Up Networking

I need to enable the Dial up Networking on my WM5, P3600
I've downloaded a cab file and attempted it but to no avail. Anyone have a suggestion as to how to get DUN enabled?
Thanks
The cab out there is for WM6, NOT WM5. I guess it said so in the thread already.
Yes, I tried. Not working on WM5. If you really need it why don't you upgrade to WM6?
WM6 - Trinity
Which version of WM6 do you suggest that would give DUN support. I have always stayed away from the cooked ROMs but it looks like I need to go that route to get DUN working. Looks like my two choices are:
LVSW_Trinity_WM6_v2.0.1.1
mUn_2.01.TE_WWE_GPS
Do you have an opinion as to which one is the best choice?

Click to collapse
every WM6 rom DON'T have DUN profile...u must install after upgrading the rom (search for the cab around the forum)...
The only rom that include DUN profile is my last one (AX3L 2.0.8.1)
WM6
I am confused as to the process
>> Download: install Hard-SPL + OS v2.0.8.1 + Radio v1.46.00.11 + ExtRom + OEM Splash screen
I've downloaded the Hard-SPL.zip file and extracted it:
EnterBootloader.exe
Rapitool.exe
ROMUpdateUtility.exe
RUU_signed.nbh
RUUGetInfo.exe
RUUResource.dll
Do I alod need to download:
OSv2.0.8.1
Radio V1.46.00.11
Ext Rom
OEM Splash Scrren
??
How do I go about installing your ROM onto my Trinity?

Downlgrade qtek 9090 from WM5 to WM2003SE

hi, I tryed to downgrade my qtek 9090 to wm2003se but I had no success.. i would do it because i have some problems with bluetooth. in this forum I found this article which explains how to fix bluetooth problems ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=274425 ) but I'm not able to find all files nedeed... is here someone who can help me? it's the same for me downgrade the rom or fix bluetooth problem.
I have the original rom downloaded from www.pocketdevice.it but when I try to install it, the installation software sais that with wm5 it cannot install the rom (ROM.Qtek.9090.v.1.40.04 ITA).
please excuse me for my bad english! I hope that I've been quite clear to explain my problem..
edit:
I found this page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.40.00_Upgrade but
# Qtek 1.40.556
# Qtek 1.40.553
# Qtek 1.40.147
doesn't work...
edit 2:
I tryed to restore an old backup but wm5 doesn't accept wm2003se's backup.. wm5 doesn't accept backup at all.. uff..
first to exclude the most common mistakes:
- did you set the phone in bootloader before starting the flashing?
- did you use the BAupgrade_noID.exe, instead of the BAupgrade.exe?
- I only tryed to install the original ROM using a USB connection.. Where can I find the other files you mentioned?
- With "bootloader mode" you mean click on the starting button and camera button at the same time? When I upgraded my ROM from wm2003se to wm5 I only connected my Qtek and started WM5 from my computer not using the "bootloader mode"

I know that, when you try and flash the original rom or original updates, you usually don't have to do the things above, but, when i had to downgrade to wm2003se, it wouldn't have worked without.
1. i try and attach the _noid.exe that i downloaded with a helmi rom, as google wouldn't find a direct download source and i wouldn't want to search this forum forever, and as you don't search it yourself, i assume you don't want to spend more time looking for it as well. Anyway, the noid.exe is the same flashing prog as the original but it bypasses the check for country id and other crap.
2. the bootloader mode is also essential because, well... i don't know, why exactly, but i assume that not all roms and flashing software manage to enter the bootloader mode correctly, or too late, and you could get stupid errors like it was the wrong device for that flash.
so, i hope, the upload worked, it is everything you need to flash your device, either put the "nk.nbf" of your rom in there, or unpack the original rom and put the noID file in that folder and start it
ok, i did exactly what you wrote and now everything work! thank for you help!
why would you even downgrade? i upgraded mine to wm6 and i think i'm not going back to 2003se
first of all, because english is not my mother language and the os language is english. i found some problems using bluetooth and wifi connections and i could not download the right patch so i decided to downgrade to wm233se
SIM TOOL KIT is the only reason one would want to downgrade
Maybe you could try an 6.1 ROM.
RUU_BA_xplode_WWE_6.11.00 works perfectly and has an standard wm6
interface.

How to install WM 6.5

I tried to instal 6.5 by theese steps but it wont work! gizmodo.com/5281397/how-to-install-windows-mobile-65-right-now
how to do this?
I wanted to install ROM something like this forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517300
what is the problem occurs? explain
When i go to step 15. in this manual: gizmodo.com/5281397/how-to-install-windows-mobile-65-right-now
My HTC stuck in load screen with 0% loaded!
I tried it lot but nothing!
You need to update ur hard spl with - SPL-1.40.OliNex
see
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
I tried it but it`s not working!
I started ROM Update Utility... next..next...then shows my image version (2.03.414.2).. Update To 1.40.OliNex..next.....next....then starts update.. 0% .. and ERROR The Update Utility cannot connect to your PDA Phone....
Don`t know why it`s not working
"Because you're an idiot"
It's Vital that you READ the guides on XDA for flashing your phone.
All your problems are answered in the forum so you really didn't need to post this. Upgrading your phone from a WM5 to 6.5 is a big leap and Don't expect it to magically fix any issues you may already have with the current version of WM.
You will need to learn how to MTTY if you plan on flashing your phone after a 6.5 rom upgrade because it's not as easy as it used to be.
There is a helpful serach function on the forum I suggest you use it before anyone else wastes their breath.
I have bad in english that`s why i cant find the correct answer in search!
And i dont understaand all the abbreviations like XDA MTTY and lots of others.
I don`t have WM 5 but WM 6.1 and its not so big leap ti WM6.5
That`s why i post this!
And i have no problems when i upgraded my last phone to 6.5 and i dont know why i have problems with HTC Diamond!?
SPL & MTTY
You should have used Olinex SPL before even thinking about flashing your phone
Thinking about it now... you should have bought the diamond unlocker as it's a better solution.
You have to use the MTTY method before flashing with a 6.5 rom as your memory space can be changed to acommodate more/less modules for the ROM. If you don't use MTTY then your phone will fail.

How to upgrade from 6.1 to 6.5(xperia x1)

kinda newbie here in terms of custom ROMs or flashing but could somebody give me a step by step procedure for me to be able to upgrade my xperia x1 6.1 to 6.5? just don't want to brick my phone.
i know that there are lots of tutorial here but i can't find which is the best & stable.
every one is quite stable, if you charge your phone 100% and don't plug your cable out of the phone nothing will go wrong.
After hardspl use SD-Methode to put your 6.5 rom on your phone it's the simpliest way, there you cannot damage your phone with putting a x1 rom on your x1 (with roms from other phones it could damage your phone but i am not sure)
1-unlock yr phone with spl 0.78
2-connect phone with full charge(20% is enough)
note: DON'T use task 29 if u don't flash yr device everyday!
3-try romes to find yr best choice
there is nothing in a simple regular flashing to brick the device
thanks for the replies, im trying to consider this ROM but when i read the thread i found that there are some bugs.
is it possible to revert to 6.1 if you're not satisfied with 6.5? could a simple hard reset do the job?

it's good rom but I suggest this one....It's stable & up to date.don't use htc rom just download GTX 2.2.0 & enjoy!
about the question.no the rom is not a program,It's the os of device.like your pc.it's like that you install windows 7 instead of XP so if you Decide to go back to XP you neet to install it.
if you want to go back to WM 6.1 you need to flash the stock rom again(that is simple).but I think you'll never go back to 6.1
the link for rom I proposed
Dynamics 2.2.0

thanks, will try that & give you feedback
another set of questions....
these are the instructions in flashing x1 to 6.5 but don't understand most of it, sorry for the stupidity =)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installing:
0) Make a system backup!
Useful apps: SPB Backup, PPC Pim Backup, Sprite Backup
1) Install Hard-SPL 0.78 by OliNex!
2) Put needed cabs to \Storage Card\autocfg\.
Supported formats: *.cab, *.provxml, *.reg, *.rgu.
*.CAB: by default they will be installed to internal memory. Cabs with "_ui" in their names will have an opportunity to be
installed to storage card.
*.EXE: AlphaUC can install *.EXEs from \Storage Card\autocfg\exe\. If you add "_nowait" to filename, customizer won't wait
until it finishes
3) Use task29. !!! Put kovsimg.nbh to storage card !!!
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=649230
4) Then flash needed ROM as always (via storage card or via CustomRUU). Make a Hard-Reset.
5) Wait for the end of customization. You will see message about it on the second launch.
After that make a soft-reset.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
help, the link for task29 is missing, how can i continue?
for number 4, how will i do that?
