Which WM6 has phone support ?

Hi,
I have the SPV M1000 (Himalaya), and phone used to work, then died. Texting worked, but phone didn't. So i used the Orange supported software, but it downgraded it to Win Mobile 2003. Although the phone did work, i prefer WM6 for the rotate screen feature etc.
Anyway, i downloaded a few WM6 roms, but of the 3 i tried, none of them allowed me to use the phone bit of the M1000.
Which WM6 rom should i download to get the phone working okay with my Himalaya ?
I tried C_ShekharAKU7.0c.R40.P24_public, also himalaya_6_1_0_0 file, but i cannot get the phone to work.
Regards,
Andy

I would suggest that either something is wrong with the phone section, or someone has made a mistake when upgrading the radio section of the phone.
The radio upgrade is a seperate upgrade to the ROM. All Windows Mobile roms should have phone support automatically, it is just a matter of getting the right radio working for you.
I am at work and as such I can not provide you any more detail, needlesss to say, use the search function in the top right hand corner of this website, and search in the Himalaya section for radio upgrade.
Cheers

Cheers Jadel, will give that a go now !

Hello,
I'm now getting a strange error ! - i downloaded "C_ShekharWM6.1.1cR16.P32_public", but when i try to install i get a "country code" error ! - "ERROR 120: COUNTRY ID ERROR N-4-1-N-N".
What does this mean ?
Regards,
Andy

Use HimalayaUpgrade_NoID instead...........!

If you go to the Himalaya Upgrading section, you would have noticed this is the third link from the top "Fix and prevent ROM Upgrading/Downgrading Country ID Errors"
Here is the link, read it all and don't skip ahead, Rom upgrades can brick a device if not done properly.

Many thanks, i'll try that !

Just tried the "himalaya 6_1_0_0" upgrade. Installed okay. But when on main desktop screen i'm getting errors, couldn't open these files : "Screenrotate.exe", "btdwake.exe" and "Phoneservice.exe".
Other than that it works !
Help please.

Hi Every1 A HAve A Few Quick Questions!!!

Hi to every1, im new to the forum, to the MDA/Wizard/G3 World and Windows Mobile Pocket Pc Phones.
Ok i just got this Used (Second-hand) T-mobile MDA A.K.A. Wizard and i callled t-mobile US to find out what is the mazimun memory the this phones supports since i couldnt find any info in their site, they didnt have the info either. So if anyone knows about this phone, i would be more than pleased, also let me give you some info about my phone:
T-Mobile MDA (Wizard)
Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 Build 14955.2.3.0
Processor: OMAP850-195MHZ
IPL: 2.26
SPL: 2.26
GSM: 02.25.11
OS: 2.26.10.2
This is my e-mail Just in case any1 wants to contact me as to give me any info that cannot be given here, or guide me pointers, guides, tutorials, etc which all will be very much appreciated.
So Far i think i have a G3 Device, right?
I know that t-mobile told me that this device cannot be upgraded by them any more than WinMo5.0 because they just decided to make a new phone, but i have been reading in this forum and i found that this specific device can be upgraded to 6.1 or something like that, also with something that is called Flowcover, or coverflow from HTC is pretty hot, but the thing is that this is my 1st device this kind and i doint have insurance on itsince i got it prepaid for now, also i dont want to mess up my phone or brick it. im very good at following tutorials and step-by-step as long as they are clear and comprehensive.
My point is there too much info and too many threads about the same please can any1 tell me which 1 to follow, and which tuto is the best, and i will foloow it to the letter.
Please PM me or send me an email to let me know what u guys think and if i said something that i shouldnt mention here in the forum please admin feel free to modify my thread, and im sorry if i did in advanced!
Thanks a lot to any1 who can help, please understand me...
I will greatly appreciate all your help and efforts.
Thanks again
Peace out!!!

Heres all you'll need
Since i was in the same boat as you were about 4 days ago, i'll help you out .
After I spent days asking people questions on a thread I finally found this website's wiki page: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
It helped me greatly, it has ALL the information and steps that you'd need to flash your phone to Button 1.05, then CID unlock it, then flash to a IPL/SPL of 3.08. Then you'd be able to flash to windows mobile 6.1 or HTC coverflow, what ever you choose. Also, if you have a Vista pc it gives a step by step tutorial to how to make it so that you could do this on vista.(Also, WST[Wizard Service Tool] didnt seem to work on my Vista)
And yes, you have a G3
Hopefully that page will answer all your questions and this gives all the info you need.

Thanks in advanced, but i forgot to tell you my PC Is: Windows XP Pro SP3
NOT VISTA, thank god!
Do i need anything special since i have XP or is XP better for this procedures?
thanks
c-ya
Oh, Also Do i need to backup anything from my phone to the PC before i do any modification? like for safety purposes? i.e. like to revert it back to original state?
Also after i do this can i use it as if it came with Windows Mobile 6? and do i tell this to T-mobile? or can i use it with other service providers?
what type of applications must i get after this, WM6 or WM5 apps? and where do i get them cause ie been looking for games and IR Apps like remote control and cant find any?
sorry but i just have too many questions in my head, also do you mind sending me a PM or email with your choice of WM6 and which is more stable and complatible with Coverflow?
thanks and sorry again!!!

Yeah, there were alot of questions in my head when i did this too.
You don't need anything special for XP to do this. Just follow the instructions on the page I gave you and download the tools you need to flash your phone.
Also, when your doing this it hard-resets your device so any programs, contacts, stuff like that should backup all that stuff on your pc using activesync and just take note of the programs you have so you could put them back on afterwards, but the programs that came with your phone usually come with the rom you are putting on, so those you shouldnt need to worry about.
To revert it back to the state when you got it jsut put an official windows mobile rom.
Also, doing this voids your warranty with T-Mobile for the phone. And when you use Wizard Service Tool(WST) when you CID unlock your phone, you can also SIM unlock it which would allow you to use it with any carrier.
You can get any apps that are compatible with WM, i'm not sure where good places to get apps are yet, i'm still looking too.
I can't really help you with the choice of WM6 and which would be more stable with Coverflow because i dont use Coverflow, but right now i'm running Windows Mobile 6.1 With Manila 2D using Touchflow.(Shown in my sig) That can be found in the Windows Mobile 6 category of the Wizard forums with a lot of other great roms.
Hope this helped .

Noob needs help. Bought Wiz200 3 days ago

Hi everyone!
**This is my first post in this forum, so I apologize if I'm posting something wrong - please be polite**
I bought a MDA VARIO (I) 3 days ago. The first User didn't mod anything on this pda. It's T-Mobile (germany) branded and still SIM-Locked.
That's the point where I came to this forum. ATM I'm using an O2 SIM-Card (will change that soon to another provider) and can't use my new PDA.
At first I've read some threads and noted all my IPLs and so on.
**Then I downloaded an official update from the t-mobile webpage and now I've got a ipl 3.08.0001 and spl 3.08.0001 still Windows Mobile 5**
I've seen some cool stuff you ppl do in this forums and want to change my lame phone into a creative machine too That's why I ask for help.
---------------------------------
*************************************
My phone still works and nothing is hacked or anything. Just 1 Update to the newest state. I read some Wiki entries and some posts very carefully, but I'm still uncertain, so I post my thoughts in here.
I read that someone here is "collecting" the phone-data and I WANT TO DONATE. Just tell me what to do/post.
**************************************
-------------------------------------
My PC-System is Windows Vista x64 ultimate.
I already got the newest version of WMDC, installed the x64 drivers like posted in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338473
I already installed the newest Wizard Service Tool
------------------------------------
After searching some threads I found out that I have a G4 device.
------------------------------------
I want to upgrade the following:
1.kill SIMLOCK
2.kill SIDLOCK
3.install new windows mobile if this makes sense (read further in this post)
Final. Use the pda with my SIM-Card as phone,plaything, organizer and do stuff -thats why we are here
--------------------------------
(1)If I read correct, I have to DOWNGRADE my IPL and SPL to kill SIMLOCK, is that correct?
Same goes with SIDLOCK? (2)
(3) Which Windows Mobile will be okay? The phone is pretty weak (195Mhz, 64MB Ram, 126MB Flash, 16bits BUS, Memory: 42,55MB, [email protected] 240*320 with 65536 collors and an extra 2Gig Memory-unit)
I'd prefer a german windows (hope that you can't read my accent ) with lots of touch function. Saw some preview of Windows Mobile 6.5 and it looked pretty nice, but I'm worried that the 195MhZ Wiz200 is to lame.
It won't be good enough to get along with Windows Mobile 7 (when it comes out), does it?
---------------------------------
SO I NEED YOUR HELP:
What information do I have to post to donate?
Do I need to downgrade to kill SIMlock and SIDlock? How do I do this?
How can I actually kill/disable SIMlock?
Where can I get a good OS for my Wiz and which one would you prefer? WM 6.0; 6.1; 6.5? Language packs available?
Which programs do I need to install (must haves)?
**Thank you for your time to read this and all upcoming answers!**

This will be the page u want to go to to unlock your device. Use it at your own risk. Im not sure if you will have to downgrade your radio or with the G4's or not. this thread will get you where you need to be to get Hard SPL (CID Unlock) and SIM Unlock. Read the first post thoroughly that's the info you need.
Just remember, When in Doubt, ALWAYS ASK QUESTIONS...we would rather you ask questions than turn your device into a brick.

Thanks for your reply.
Hope anyone else will post some thoughts to my other questions (Must-Have Programs, which OS and so on)
I wrote that much about what I've already read. I don't plan to flash my device into a brick just because I'm impatient

AFAIK HardSPL has nothing todo with SIM-Unlock.
For SIM-Unlock you should look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=265928
IMPORTANT: This is only for SIM-Unlock if you have a G4 Wizard!
CID-Unlock is not possible. You can either use SoftSPL or HardSPL for flashing a new ROM.
And don't use Vista!!! Use WinXP 32bit for all this stuff!!!

Hey there!
Finally got rid of Simlock, thanks for the link!
Since my lack of Windows XP I dunno how to go on modding my phone. Sim-Unlocking worked well with Vista 64 and WMDC (XP drivers though).

Visited a friend and used his XP-PC for the good stuff:
Now my WIZ is running WM6,5 by Cyberdyne and is overclocked with HomeScreen++. Running sweat. Totally happy right now.
Thanks again to all ppl who helped me to change my crappy T-Mobile MDA into some up-to-date funmachine!

[Q] Can't flash rhodium. Error 246 [FIXED!]

Hi folks,
i'm trying to flash my Rhodium. (i flashed it before, but than my screen was wrecked, sent it to htc, and get my phone back) so now i want to reflash my phone.
But i can't get hardSPL working.
tried several versions of hardSPL, also the newest one.
But every time i try to flash, it says:
Error 246 device not responding
or with auto-flash-mode:
---------------------------
Fatal Error
---------------------------
Hard-SPL is for non-commercial purposes only, we have detected that you appear to already have unlocked another device, if you wish to unlock commercially, please e-mail [email protected] or [email protected] to discuss solutions; However if this is your first device, then please ensure that the radio is turned ON and retry
And then he says that if RUU failed, i need to do it manualy with SSPL-manual.exe
but also then i can't get it flashed!
what to do now?

I hope this helps. The original license you got was only good for that device. HTC probabily gave you a different device and not the orignal phone you sent in.
"IMPORTANT: Each user gets 1 license, or perhaps 2-3 on request if needed (valid forever and works as transparently as possible, so it won't be a problem at all)
you can send a request for 1-2 more devices for private user (free) at http://support.htc-unlocks.com (ONLY at this link, not in PM)."

You should really post this in the HardSPL thread

Allright,
i donated 4 GPB, and that does the trick. I restarted the hardSPL app, and within a minute, my phone was unlocked successfuly!
Awesome, but it sucks that you need to donate!
Those guys gonna get rich!

Is says this for me too. Omfg, do you really have to donate?

no, if it is for personal use, then you don't have to, if you can't afford it/whatever. you can just send a message to us at http://support.htc-unlocks.com/ to get a free license
