Help for the Dumb - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading

Hello Everyone,
I want to upgrade my DoPod 818 to the newest ROM but need help. I am in the USA using T-Mobile. Which ROM should I use? I am downloading the "I-mate JAM 1.06.150 Extended ROM" from the FTP site.
Is this what I need?
Or?
"JAM_USA_106_150_11000.exe"
What can I use to Backup the existing ROM in the device to go back just in case something goes wrong.
Thank you for the help in advance.

XDA Neo (aka. Qtek S200 Rom(German) )

Hy Guyz!!
Does anybody know (have the O2 german rom) where i can download the german (O2) rom for the Xda Neo.
Thanks in advance.
Next
Would be interested as well :lol:
I've a new O2 with german rom, I'm searching abot OS ENG ROM or I prefer the ITALIAN rom.
Before I delete my GER rom, If you want I can dump this for you. Do you have a O2 ENG or (the best) ITA rom (Qtek or i-mate)?.

I've finally got mine backed up before i flashing it with i-jaming newest rom. But it is backed as dump. .. and as far as i know, to reflash it back later (i.e. if you/have want to), it has to be a .nba format. but i do not know how to convert it to that format.
If anybody knows how please let me know and i'll post the finished product here.
Thanks
Peace
ummm ... i would kindly appreciate if someone could backup its current ROM and upload it to xda ftp.
What ROM, OS, RADIO version is this? Currently i have the Qtek German ROM (see signature). Is the EXT ROM also available?
Regards,
Falk
I am also very interested in flashing mine to an english rom (qtek, etc), but I do also want the option of going back to the GErman Rom if need be...but, i have not seen the original German (Neo) rom posted. Does anyone know where this can be found? The O2 site has nothing....
thanks...
folks, the german (or whatever languaged roms) mostly pop up as soon as the carrier (o2, tmobile, orange, ...) or oem (qtek, imate) have a update rom available, so it is usually no problem to install your prefered rom now and then go back to the original as soon as you want to sell the device. also if you think that switching the rom may harm your warranty:
1) it's always possible to f*ck up the rom version you have on your device in case of a hardware issue (simply start any update and the unplug the usb), so your beloved device becomes a paperweight and noone can say what rom you've used; 2) would changing the os on your desktop pc harm any warranty? no. so there you go whenever someone asks.
you don't need to change the cid of your device, there's a modified upgrade_utility, so you can always go back to the original state of rom as soon as your carrier releases one.
go update now ...
cheers, lutz
aaaaaand by the way: the xda neo (prophet) german rom from o2 is now available officially here: http://www.o2-online.de/o2/kunden/technikundeinst/exclusive/xda/xdaneo/index.html?nidx=1 go get it and be happy

Clarification of ROM Upgrading

Hi,
I am expecting my German XDA in the mail in the next few days.
I have been reading this forum for the past 2 weeks, and have tried to wade through all the great advice to educate myself on ROM upgrading issues. I would like to clarify that I understand this properly.
As I understand, in order to render my new XDA "O2-free" and customizable, not to mention english, I need to install a new ROM - probably the latest Imate ROM or maybe the PDAMobiz ROM.
Before I do this, should I Unlock the CID? From my reding, this will allow me to the install any ROM.
Is this an accurate understanding of everything involved?
Are there other better options to achieve my goal of a non-branded non-operator specific Jamin/Neo?
Is there a way to save my original German O2 ROM if it became necessary to return the unit for service?
I hope people do not object to thsi post. I know that it can be irritating when newbies post on topics which have already been discussed thoroughly. I have spent at least 2 weeks trying to educate myself on the procedures, and really would just like if some knowledgeable contributor could reassure me that I have not missed something obviuos.
Thanks,
Ronan

I'm still updating the page, but its working fine for my dutch s200 (now english dopod rom)
Hi,
I tried to follow the steps as outlined, but when I get to teh first soft reset, the device locks, and I can do nothing with it!
Please tell me how to fix it. Can I use bootloader?
How?
Thanks,
Ronan
Crisis averted!
Got into bootloader and installed the dopod rom.
Ro
Dear Ro,
have you upgrated your PDA?
Can you write your procedure?
Best regards
Daniele
please, read this topic and tell me what you think about it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=54878
I entered bootloader then used the Dopod ROM with the modified romupdateutility.
I have not tried anything else.
Does anyone know of a solution for us SPL 2.15.0001 users? We seem to be very restricted in options.
Ro
Please, can you write the links where it is possible to download this rom and all the necessary files?

Thanks dears,
I have updated it with Dopod rom......but now....how can I update to I-mate JAMin (italian) rom?
Does someone have an Idea to how do it?
Thanks, thanks, thanks
Daniele
Yes, you have to go to ftp.clubimate.com there you can find the JAMin ROM's and also you can choose the language you want.
As you know, first, you must CID unlock, then you can download your favorite ROM. Tell us your opinon after install it.

[REQ] Searching unbranded WM 6 ROM for SGH-i620/i640

Hi,
i have a vodafone i640 (the i620 from vodafone is called i640 and has a metal front) with windows mobile 6 from ebay.
All networks can be used, but I want to delete all the vodafone stuff. I never had a smartphone with wm6, so I need to know whether
• I need a new unbranded firmware
or
• remove are there tools to delete the vodafone live! links and the stuff?
• Do I need a special WM6 version, because the uncommon display resolution of 320x240!?
A adress where I can get unbranded firmware or tools for this would be really helpful.
The i620 should also work on the i640.
Thanks for every help.

i620 6.1 rom??
Does a 6.1 rom exist for the i620? Also, to the person who has a a rom for the i620, where did you get it? I just purchased a i620, should be in this Friday...I can't wait!!
Does anyone know where can I find more information about windows mobile standard? It would appears this whole site is more catered to windows mobile professional. I would just like to know where I can get roms for the samsung i620.
Thanks in advance,
(still searching for a good guide on here on "how to cook your own rom for WinMo standard")
How abt Dumping the ROM and then Editing it to WM6 Vanilla and then re-installing??
Yea, I was thinking about that...but I just need to read up on how to dump rom and what I can change and not change(still looking for a good thread on how to do that).
But mainly I'm looking for 6.1rom for my samsung i620. Someone on here said they have a rom downloaded, but I'm not sure if it's a 6.1rom or just a clean 6.0 rom

O2 ROM

Ok Folks
Got a bit of a problem here, need to send my Exec back to O2, but it's running WM6.
I'm searching the forum/web trying to find an original O2 rom, no luck so far, can anyone help me?
Tom
(I'm forced to post this on more than area of the forum because I'm really stuck here - sorry)
Does this help you?
I have the original O2 XDA Exec v1.30.162 ROM upgrade from September 2006. I believe this was the last iteration of official O2 ROMS for the Universal. Would that be any use to you?

I'd not found that page, but sadly because the XDA FTP is no more, they aren't available. (Unless I'm missing something?)
Thanks all the same.
As an aside, I have found a ROM 1.13.188 from BuzzDev, however when I stick in on the phone then perform the factory reset rather than getting the boot image I get a corrupted screen and it stops.
Any ideas? I was wondering if it was older than my bootloader or something (2.01).
Tom
I found the original O2 ROM on O2 page, will get you a link when I get to my office.
