Vodaphone V1620 (9090, M2000) - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Good morning
I have recently acquired a Vodafone V1620 (9090, M2000)
I would like to install a more recent ROM bit I'm not sure which one to use.
There is also a problem with the sound - a crackling noise in the speaker but nothing in the headphones. I have changed the speaker but the noise is still there.
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know
Thank you

Welcome to xda-developers!
Questions such as this are best checked first on the wiki, here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
You will have to decide for yourself whether you want a French ROM or one of the more widely available English language ROMS, including versions of WM5 or WM6 that have been ported by several members of this site. The choice is yours!
I regret that I am no hardware expert and cannot comment on your sound problem.
Hope this helps!

Vodafone VPx / PH20B2 Upgrade?

Hi all, I have a VPx with version 1.22.00 WWE / 1.06.00 / 1337.38 / 1.22.155 WWE. I am interested to upgrade particularly the radio version and figure that I might as well just go to 1.40 as this includes everything.
I believe that I will need to use the generic Qtek 9090 1.40 WWE ROM as Vodafone have not published any upgrades. Question is, will it work with the PH20B2 specifically? Are there any caveats to watch for, anyone else who has already done this same unit upgrade?
Many thanks!
JBN
I'd like an answer to the above, as I'm using the exactly the same PDA.
Anyone care to comment?
Well the answer is indeed to use the Qtek image and follow the instructions from Wiki here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.40.00_Upgrade
This will remove all of the Vodafone branding from the Extended ROM so when it reinitialises you will lose the Vodafone theme and the bootstrap image changes from Vodafone to Qtek. Bear this in mind if it matters to you in the future.
I had to use the MaUpgradeUt_noID utility and the first time it stalled. After 20 minutes I killed the process (under XP) and reran it, successfully.
Use at your own risk!
JBN
Thanks for the reply JBN.
Which upgrade do you suggest, as there are several available there?
I used 1.40.147 as this is the basic WWE image. I cannot speak to the suitability of the other versions.
Hope this helps,
JBN
I tried the Image mentioned above & it worked great !!
Congratulations
Glad to hear it! The VPx is no longer sold by Vodafone, and even its replacement the V1620 (identical in almost every way) is apparently on its way out.
However the good news if you feel brave and look around the forums is that a lot of work has gone into hacking Windows Mobile 5 images suitable for Blue Angel. So if you are not dependent on official support then you don't have to miss out on WM5 advantages such as they may be!

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.

Any body want this?

Hi All,
After being a user of an SPV m2000 (HTC Blue Angel) for over a year, I've unfortunately decied I need a "proper" phone, and have now got the Motorola v3i as well.
However, shortly before i upgraded, I got a replacement SPV, with an upgraded rom set from my original one - details below.
Couple of questions:
1. Are these upgrades useful to anyone, or are they readily available out here anyway?
2. Is it possible to dump ALL of them in one go to my older SPV?
Details on ROMs follow:
_____________OLD SPV________________New SPV
Oper. Vers.____5.31.00wwe____________5.40.1.179
ROM vers._____1.31.00wwe____________1.40.00 wwe
ROM date______12/13/05______________03/10/05
Radio Vers._____1.06.02_______________1.06.02
Prot. Vers.______1337.38_______________1337.38
ExtROM Ver_____1.31.124 wwe__________1.40.179wwe
Feedback / details / requests for upload - all for the asking!
PS - just like to say a big thanks to all the experts here that helped me along the way. Now maybe I can give something back!

If you want a spanish rom then there is the
Qtek ESN DANGA304 1.40.03 1.40.158 1.12.00
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
The instructions are the same as for the English roms you just need to dowbload a different file.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.42.00_Upgrade
You can then upgrade the radio to 1.15
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Radio_1.15_Upgrade
Ok mate, thanks for the answer.
Is this image the 1.42 ROM??, cus i readed this is the final ROM Update,
Qtek ESN DANGA304 1.40.03 1.40.158 1.12.00 ????????? this is what u suggested...
i really don't care about the language of my PDA, but the DEFAULT LANGUAGE of my PDA its on Spanish, i don't know if i can install English ROM????
i just want to install the best ROM, Spanish or English doesn't really matter.
Caballero,
You asked for a Spanish version, so the reply was on where to find info on that Spanish version...
The latest WWE version is 1.42, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=172031#172031
I would however suggest to wait for Tuatara's TuMa 1.4 WM5 Rom...
In the meantime I strongly suggest to start reading the wiki page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
If you have read & understood on the regular Roms and you feel confident enough, proceed to http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM5_Home
for the WM5 Rom...
Buena Suerte!
You can install any language rom, the latest shipped english rom is 1.42 and german is 1.42.01. The latest spanish rom is 1.40.03.
In Windows Mobile 5 The best roms are 2 IMHO
1.WM5 ported from Wizard version 2a - beta
2.WM5 ported from Wizard version 1.3-TuMa beta
WM5 roms are in english
ive read all the pages but im still a little confused of wich rom should i upgrade with.
my device information is:
PH20B0BESNNBSTAR301 1.40.03 03 1.40.1781.12.0012.00
i didn't find operator rom suppor as STAR301...?? im miss, really :s
In the device info says:
ROM 1.40.03 esn
Extended ROM 1.40.178 esn
Radio 1.12
* I would like to upgrade my device to the latest WWE WM2003 (not WM5 upgrade). release that would run properly in my device. I just don't want to screw it, and im having problems with the online info. please give me a hand. much thanks.
Oye, eres tonto?
Read http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.42.00_Upgrade
