Help!...please upgrading my MDA III

Hi I recently purchased a MDA III on E-Bay. It came with a German manual and a QWERTZ keyboard but all of the menus are in English so I suppose it was flashed with a UK ROM (English is good because I live in Los Angeles).
Here's my phone info:
ROM version 1.1200 WWE
ROM date: 09/02/04
Radio Version: 1.02.00
Protocol Version: 1337.32
ExtROM version: 1.12.134 WWE
Being a newbie I tried upgrading the ROM with Imate_PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP.exe and i-mate_PDA2k_Arabic_13100_112_10600_SHIP.exe
but both attempts failed on install when I received an Error 120 Wrong Country ID message. So I'm in the dark on what spells I need to cast in order to get the updated ROM. any help much appreciated.

old old rom - t-mobile MDA III

Just received my MDA last monday....brand new....
Been reading this forumn extensively and I wonder...
My rom is
Rom Version: 1.06.00 ENG
rom dat: 08/05/04
Radio version: 1.00.00
Protocol version: 1337.3
ExtRom version: 1.06.118 WWE
Questions:
- Is it correct that there are no rom upgrades available for me?
- It is possible to only upgrade the radio version? Bluetooth headphone is echooing on the other side.
- I have already upgraded my bluetooth to 3900 with the audio.dll

Top left side of your screen is a link to wiki, your phone is a blueangel, getting started is always a good place to start.
Below this thread there a 2 threads with tmobile in the topic, read them.
There is a search funtion, which you will learn about in getting started at the top and middle of the scren you are looking at.
And after all that, have fun and welcome to xda.

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?
Model No. PH20B
ROM Version: 1.31.00 WWE
ROM Date: 12/13/04
Radio Version: 1.06.00
Protocol: version: 1337.38
ExtROM Version: 1.31.139 WWE

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.

Advise on Firmware upgrade please. Its getting so confusing

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.

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.
