Rom Date 03/10/05

Did you ever try to use search function?
Start with Wiki for blueangel, you have ALL needed information there (maybe not enough warnings - as any flashing may destroy your device).

Use this
And next time you should really use the SEARCH engine. Good Luck!

Upgrade Advice req'd

Hi
New to this upgrade business
I have a Vodafone VPx which is a Qtek 9090, with the following:
ROM Version 1.22.00 WWE
Date 10/22/04
Radio Version 1.06
protocol Version 1337.38
ExtRom Version 1.22.155 WWE
What would be the best/stable upgrade available?
What,if any, are the differences between the Qtek and i-Mate updates.
Thanks
Kevin

This is what your looking for.
Diff. 9090 VS Imate, just different operator setup files in the Extended Rom, more info can be found on the WIKI at above link.

WMP 10 on XDA IIs

did anyone try to upgrade 9series to 10 ?
Would be nice but believe WMP10 on BA is only possible with a rom upgrade to 1.40 (this includes WMP10.)
Unless someone can hopefully point me out to be wrong there is not currently a way to upgrade to WMP10 without a complete rom upgrade
a ROM reflash is required.
mamaich had earlier provided an older ROM with WMP10, now the new 1.4 ROM has it inbuilt. worth upgrading..
anywaz, can't install wmp10 as standalone installation.
Ach, that's a pain.
I did upgrade to 1.40 but got more probs than worth.
Have reverted to original but with latest Radio and BlueTooth bits... I will update my details on here once I have finished fiddling...
Is there no way at all, maybe something extracted from 1.40, to install Windows Media 10 without Rom update?
Update my XDA IIs
I just got my very first Pocket PC. And I try to do a update on my software. So, where can i find the upgrade software? and how i know which one to pick?

Should i upgrade my rom?

To start with I have had my xda iis only a few days. The roms is:
ROM version: 1.12.62 WWE
ROM date: 10/04/04
Radio version: 1.02.00
Protocol version: 1337.32
ExtROM version: 1.12.178 WWE
There are numerous comments on here and the wiki about different rom and radio updates. Could anyone sum up the benefits and differences for me if i upgrade rom or radio please?
Can nobody advise a newcomer to xda iis and these forums? On other subjects I've had a really good response but nobody seems to want to advise me on this thread.
martlewis - you know there's a new ROM out, everyone's busy trying that out! Windows Mobile 2005. If you feel confident in doing a backup, try that one. It's got serious issues to be resolved, but you're lucky enough to own a device that can be upgraded.
I've got a magician, so can't help re your specific rom.

martlewis,
If you can wait for the new ROM WM5 to be developed it will be OK for you, but if you can't I would suggest that you should up-grade to the latest available ROM up-date which is as follows:
ROM version : 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date : 03/10/05
Radio version : 1.13.00
Protocol version: 1377.42
ExtRom version : 1.40.176
This is the best performing ROM version as at now.
Regards
sorry for my intrimission!
I have a pda2k with italian rom, but I would to like to have the system language in english.
To upgrade the rom: I must download the version 1.40.00 WWE from wiki and then run the update using: MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe.. right?!
Dear Mart...
I have tried the new ROM which I've been waiting for a long time. Once installed, I liked it. Howerver, I started to find out that there are many problems that I'm not used to with WM2003 SE, therfore, I downgraded to WM2003.....until these issues are resolved. SO.... if know how to upgrade, and if you know how to downgrade in case you didn't like the new ROM......Then give it a try......apart from the issues it has....still I like it. Finally it's another new Microsoft Windows that will take some time to get stable.
Cheers
I decided to wait for the official new ROM to be developed and published on the I-mate site to download and up-grade.
What's happening now is just trials for resolving the problems users are facing with the new WM5 ROM.
My device is working fine now with the 1.40 ROM version and 1.13 Radio version.
The only problem I'm facing is the statics in BT headset and I hope that we can find some solution for this problem in the near future, otherwise everything is going just fine.
Regards

Closer,
I think that you have to simply download the english version and install it to your PDA2K through the computer cable. After the installation is complete, you will be having the english version installed on your PDA2K.

Bought a Charmer - Need Help Upgrading Stuff !!! PLS

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).
