Hello !
I just bought a charmer from a friend to use as an auxiliary phone, but of course, I can´t pass on upgrading it to its maximum extent !
I already managed to net\sim unlock it. I don´t know if its CID unlocked, but when I connect it to my Laptop I can see the Ext Rom files in a folder.
What I want to do now, and I´m not sure how since I´m not sure if my specs are right (I´ll tell them later on), and since I Can´t access Bootloader, is to upgrade to WM6.
My current specs are:
- Windows Mobile 2003 SE Version 4.21.1088 (Build 15045.2.6.0)
- Rom Version: 1.12.00 WWE
- ROM Date: 05/28/05
- Radio Version: 1.12.00
- Protocol Version: 1337.42
This is all the info I could find ! Is it easy to upgrade to WM6 from where I stand now ? Or should I just take it to a shop ?
TIA

your unit doesn't seem to be a charmer. the charmer has originally wm5 installed. seems that your unit is a magician (qtek s100).

Hi guys, I am in Australia on the TELSTRA Network and would like to upgrade my PDA2K from:-
ROM Version : 1.22.00 WWE
ROM Date: 10/22/04
Radio Version: 1.06.00
Protocol Version: 1337.38
ExtROM Version: 1.22.162 WWE
to the latest ROM 1.31 and Radio 1.10.0.
Would you recommend this upgrade and what would be the best way to do it.
I have a lot of experience with upgrading my O2 XDA II and working with it's ExtROM.
Just wanting to make sure I am doing it correctly before I jump in.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I've just bought an XDA IIs in Perth and brought it back to the UK. I've sucessfully upgraded it to 1.31 & 1.10.0 with the use of the O2 UK upgrade ROMs and the info on this forum (although this is an ASIA unit).
I'm presuming that you'll need to cook your ext rom as there does not appear to be a shipped ASIA 1.31 set (if you want to keep the auto configuration tool for the asain telco networks etc.).
You will also probably want to upgrade the Bluetooth drivers to the latest reliable stack (I believe this is 1.0.0 build 3900) and upgrade the caller ID software to v1.20 and MMS software to 2.0.0.16.
Hope that helps?
Danny
Would there have country id error in case Andy need to upgrade?
You'll all have to excuse me if I appear a little confused.... I've only had my Blue Angel a few days and already it is driving me up th wall. I be going through the message boards day after day and now I'm unsure which way to turn with it. Configuration of my unit is as follows:
Orange SPV M2000 - Unlocked, I use both Orange and O2 sims in it.
Operator version: 5.31.1.124
ROM version: 1.31.00 WWE
ROM date: 12/13/04
Radio version: 1.06.02
Protocol version: 1337.38
ExtRom version 1.31.124 WWE
Bluetooth version: 1.0.0 Build 3500
Windows Mobile 2003 SE: 4.21.1088
So far its faults seem to be
1. Not compatible with my Bluetooth car kit (nokia CK 7W).
2. Occasionally people are telling me that I sound really distant when making calls (when using it as a phone, e.g with to my ear - I don't do wired ear pieces)
Could anyone please recommend the upgrades I should be looking to use? By upgrading roms etc will a loose its unlocked ablity?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
You can use the latest rom upgrades that are available i.e 1.40 Rom version. After upgarding the rom ur device will not be locked once unlocked it remains unlocked. all the blueetooth and other issues would be resolved after the rom upgrade.
The complete details of the latest rom are as follows:
ROM Version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM Date: 03/10/05
Radio version: 1.13.00
Protocol version: 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.40.147
for the rom link u can have a look in the forum there are a couple of updates availble from different opereators.
cheers

Thanks for that, I've upgraded it using the imate PD2k 1.40 rom set. The unit seems to be functioning better already and it has got rid of some of the rubbish Orange had installed on it.
Now at:
ROM version: 1.40 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Radion Version: 1.12.00
Protocol version: 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.40.176 WWE
Bluetooth version 1.0.0 Build 3900
Windows Mobile 2003SE Version 4.21.1088 (build 15045.2.6.0)
Guess I'll just have to see how this performs........
Had fun trying to upgrade it, country ID error thing kept coming up but got there in the end using the advice from this site. I guess that must be something to do with my phone being unlocked? The only info the device data utility gave me was:
PH20B 0 B WWE E
Any way thanks agin for your help

Nope, I guess it was because you actually read the Wiki pages and the advice on this forum
Fair point.......... It's all there if you read in to it
I would appriciate any help on the upgrade of this VPx.
I currently have a Vodafone VPx which runs on a WM2003SE.
I am unsure on how to upgrade this to WM5 as their seems to be no ROM for PH20B2.
I have tried PH20B but to no avail.
Here are the details of my device:
Model: PH20B2
Windows Mobile 2003 SE (v4.21.1008 Build: 14132)
Intel PXA23 400MHz
ROM Version: 1.22.00 WWE
ROM Date: 10/22/04
Radio Version: 1.06.00
Protocol Version: 1337.38
Could anyone help me or point me in the right direction, Vodafone no longer support this as it is now discontinued from their product list.
All help will be highly appriciated
Yusuf
Re: PH20B2 (Vodafone VPx UK) Assistance required-upgrade to
I tried the v1.3-TuMa WM5 ROm but found it too slow. I use my VPx as a Phone, a PDA. I surf and I listen to MP3's. All of this seemed too slow to be reliable with that ROM.
There is a new WM5 ROM being tested at the moment (Ivan R4) - suggest we wait till the bugs are ironed out of this and try again.
In the meantime I'm back on 2003SE (but with upgraded Radio and 1.42 ROM).
Cheers,

Hi,
I'm currently run an original Qtek 9100 unlocked.
I have upgraded the firmware a while ago but I dont know what firmware I used.
My rom version info shows : 2.17.7.2.wwe
date: 2/10/06
radio version: 02.07.10
Protocol version : 413.1.03
Ext rom version: 2.17.7.102
It also shows Windows mobile v5 os 5.1.195 ( build 14847.2.0.0)
Now its all running fine with push email etc but reading this site there seems to be lots of upgrades and its getting very confusing.
What Firmware / upgrade should I use to upgrade this device
Keeping all the features I allready have.
I know I have to re input all the settings again.
Many thanks for your time and input.
Dave.

You just posted the firmware version you used last time.
If you are after a recomendation for which ROM to upgrade to then my vote goes to Molski see http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=59513 for further info.
Thnaks for the reply.
Yes thats the firmware in my Qtek at the moment.
I belive it an original Qtek upgrade, do these still exist or are they all modified now?
Also is there an easy way to back up my firmware / rom / settings just incase of a problem.
Atleast I could then return back if need be.
Hello everybody,
I've tried to upgrade my O2 mini S from the official ROM of 02 for mini S. I used awizard program to unlock then I run the upgrade process of Faria Crossbow.

This is my ROM information:

ROM date: 3/9/06
Radio version: 02.07.10
Protocol version: 413.1.03
Please help me if you have any idea about this problem.

You aren't CID Unlocked. Use this procedure if you have a G3:

Follow all the steps and check your work as you go, and do everything (don't think you are done after you run Lokiwiz).
please help
