Converting to M500 rom - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading

Hey everyone - a quick and hopefully easy question!
I have a JAM with an orange sim and want to make it into an orange M500. Is there any rom/fireware that will let me do this?
I've seached the FTP but cant seem to find a big enough file.
Could anybody let me know the correct filename if one exists?
Cheers!
Mattster

Have a look on the ftp site for the WWE_112_172 build. I used that a few weeks back and it was an Orange build
Have fun

What software customisations are there? I played with it yesterday and it seems pretty stock to me.
If you going to backup the ROM, you might also want to make a copy of the Extended ROM files - this is an additional procedure you'll find on the links above; however, you'll have to hard reset your PPC before you can do this, so make a backup if you've changed anything major.
Also, shouldn't this post be in the Magician board?

Ughhh...I feel like kickin myself. I meant the ETEN M500 and not the SPV M500!!! Gosh, i am sorry for creatin any confusion.
Oh n heck, i wasnt tryin to flatter anyone. U guys really deserved what all i said.

Nicetrack for WM 6 ??

I wasnt able to work with Nicetrack and found that the link to their site is dead.
Is there any other software that works similarly to nicetrack on WM6.
Im on nfrazz62a ROM.with Radio ROM 02.47.11
maybe you can fill us in on exactly what nicetrack does, because this is the first time ive seen or heard of it and maybe for others as well.
Hi mdajunkie,
Its a software which gives us the information about the signal strength in dBm.
well I know you asked for something similar and the only thing that I could think of that has something similar or close to what you might need is batterystatus. That gives you a percentage on how strong your signal is, also does a few other very useful tricks. I wish I could leave you with a link or something to download and try but unfortunately im not at home, otherwise I post it for you. hate to say it but use the search for batterystatus or hopefully someone else has some better input than I could give.
Here is batterystatus
Hi Binder
Thanks for the link.....
And thankyou mdajunkie for the info...
I will try this out and will post back.
Emm,
Nothin upto Nice track.
That was really perfect !
You can download nice track still
I downloaded nice track 8/14 here. I agree that nothing matched nicetrack for maintaining a database of signal strength, cell towers, and even locations when it is hooked up with GPS. However, I have met nothing but failure in trying to get it to work on WM6 - It needs to know the COM port for GSM, and none of the available ones work - either no signal, or it locks the application. Because I really need it in the current cell-strength purgatory I find myself, I might be going back to WM5 if I can't bumble my way through it.
The author released the source code (waaaay beyond my skills) at the same website.
PLEASE let me know if anyone gets it working on WM6. I am currently running Jaguar2 on a wizard.
THANKS.
Please, could anyone send me a copy of the Nicetrack 1.6 sources (binaries would be fine too but I need the source) ?The website is down...
At the moment the site is up to work
Look http://www.nicecuppa.net/
Anyone has any news? I need of a Nicetrack for HTC Touch Pro. Or exist the similar software ?

YES! it is working on my Qtek S100 with wm2003se !!! very nice m8
BUT i can't get it to work with wm6.1 well, the 2008 versions that site actually *WORK* (you can see the cells already being detected) but it has a small resolution. Versions from 2006 have correct resolution, but don't work at all. I'll try contacting the developer, as i don't have any coding skills whatsoever
PS: i tried the batterystatus today plug-in from previous page, but it reveals to be a huge battery hog (at least for me). the constant refreshing of data probably is to blame.

Do you know how to contact the author? Maybe he is registered to xda...
I have a motorola q9h smartphone and nicetrack doesn't start because of an useless error i've already seen that is related to the smartphone/ppc little differences... If i could look at his source code....
well i tried emailing him, but the form on his site doesnt work.
also, for wm6.1 i now use rk-Location Switch, while nicetrack continues to work flawlessly in wm2003
iRiKi,
1 i now use rk-Location Switch
What program is that ?

Please help me..

I have been into quite a number of posts as i have been given an xda orbit, i really cant seem to find the right place to post this. I checked the pictures on the side but it aint their i dont even know what type of pda phone it is. Soo much jargun for me to also understand like armitis and all these other words.
1. I read you can upgrade to WM6 from o2 site i have just been on their tried their search and come up empty handed if a direct link is possiable will be very happy. (if it someone elses rip which is better please try and give a noobz guide)
2. I know you are able to put tom tom on this pda phone but that was for WM5 what do i need to get it to work with WM6 and is thier any such place to get it from.
3. Is it possiable to remove o2 crap off it in order to get more Hard disk space from it.
4. How on earth do you unlock this i want to also use my orange sim too.
it's called Artemis

wm6.1 for shadow/juno

Even though some of us shadow/juno users don't have a section up here yet, are there any works in progress for wm6.1? I know they have it for the dash so I am not sure how much different it would be for the shadow/juno.
ya i would seriously love this haha i really want a 6.1 shadow rom with threaded text messaging
I would like to see it too
I would love to see a Juno/Shadow section
we've been fighting for an htc s640 forum for a few weeks now, they just ignore us lol, so i doubt you guys are going to get one as well anytime soon heh..
we're also poking around for a wm6.1 rom, no luck
dont' worry guys, you're not the only ones!
It sure would be nice to have our own section for the JUNO/Shadow, and I find it hard to believe that none of these ROM cookers have not been working on a WM6.1 custom rom for the shadow.
The 3125 has been a staple of the smartphone community for too long, and anyone who has used the shadow can appreciate the larger screen and better camera found in the shadow.
Come on y'all...........it's time for some JUNO/Shadow love
I guess we will have to start learning how to "cook" roms.
I'll try to learn something and post it on my website: http://www.freddyreyes.com/forums
There isn't that much to regular cooking of roms. The problem is porting it from another device(which I have no idea how to do). Here are the things you need to do to mod the rom after you have that very important step figured out:
Extract rom (extracted versions are floating around in this forum somewhere...(Check Calling all T-Mo Shadow users thread)
Dump rom into bin files and then convert to normal files/folders
Add/remove files as needed
Create XIP chain with working Shadow drivers (Don't know how to do that)
Convert fiel back to a bin file and recreate os file (nk.nbh)
I can do all of these steps except creating the new XIP chain. I have no idea where to start with that.
I just remembered, you also need to make any drivers in the actual rom that don't work universally to work for the shadow.
If someone can teach me some of the things to do to port the rom, I'll try and do it.
I don't understand why they won't make us a new section

How can I give you the drivers? Do I need to "dump" my Rom and extract the files?
Here is the post that you mentioned: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351660
Well, I've got the shadow dump, but I don't know how to edit any drivers from a different devices wm6.1 to work for the shadow
Maybe Kavana (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=373268) at the Excalibur forum can give us a hand. He ported 6.1 to the Dash.
Ok. What device's wm6.1 should we try and port and what build?
I know that there are currently 3 builds of wm6.1, but I don't know if they all have to do with smartphones(maybe only for ppc). Which should we use?
There are 2 that could work. The Dash is very similar to the Shadow. It has wi-fi, bluetooth, camera...however the camera is only 1.3 Mp and the other issue could be the "sure type" shadow's keyboard.
Dash (Smartphone)

Tornado (Smartphone)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=375670
The only problem I can see with using the dash is that it's landscape oriented and the shadow is portrait oriented. It doesn't matter to me though..
spl
i would say use the vox. there is a 6.1 build for the vox. and also not rain on this but, even if you make a build how are we going to flash it? spl will be locked i'm guessing and as far as i know nobody has come up with a jump or hard spl yet for the juno
Does anyone know if Lokiwiz works for the shadow? We could CID unlock it with that, right?
I tried that on my old Wizard and it worked not sure about the Shadow....
EDIT: I thought it CID unlocked my phone. I'll try something else. I downloaded the vox SYS and OEM folders that contain the rom image. (I'll start replacing all the parts tomorrow. Thanks pixelwix for reminding about the cid unlock and the Vox rom suggestion.

Can't find Treo 750 Windows Mobile 6 Download

I am sure this has been beaten to death, and yes I know that Palm no longer offers this -- for a reason I can't imagine! I have a Cingular-branded Treo 750 and I'm trying to scour the Internets to find an archived version of the Treo 750 Updater for Windows Mobile 6.0 -- the official one for AT&T, as my phone is not unlocked. Can anyone tell me HOW to search for it, even if they can't give me a link? I found a couple of DEAD links to a site that no longer is apparently even out there at mytreo.net... but nothing that actually works. I even used the Internet Wayback Machine and found the official Palm pages for the updater, which worked all the way until I got to the ACTUAL link for the ZIP file.
EDIT - I'm not allowed to post links. Hopefully you can figure out how to use the link fragments below.
Haha! We must be the only people in the universe trying to do this right now on such an old phone!
I found a link to rapidshare in this thread that did work -
showthread.php?t=335402&page=14
Unfortunately, my whole mission is simunlocking an old Cingular 750 so I can send it with a friend to France and use it locally, so I've sim unlocked my 750 and the desktop updater won't work.
I just found a link to the 2.25 sd updater on this page, last post:
showthread.php?t=489829&highlight=sdupdater
HTH - if anyone can point me to a live 2.27 sd updater or a recent generic I'd appreciate it.
Thanks, thesameguy
I haven't tested them yet, but I went ahead and downloaded both versions from the second link fragment... just in case one way gives me a problem. Plus, I don't like to own a device and not have a personal archive of updates and such...
Thanks again.
I have bookmarked this page:

Seems to have most of them ..

I am in the process of downloading these files now. Just a quick question, though to save me time...which is the one that I will need to have the most recent version of WM6 (preferred) for use on an unlocked phone? Sadly, I am an AT&T customer, but the phone is unlocked.
2_25_ATT is the final version distributed by AT&T. If you are an AT&T customer, I would use that one.
Hi guys, I'm a french with a bad english so sorry if the topic already exist.
I want to try to flash my treo 750V for setup win 6.5 but i don't know how to.
I've a rom (if you have another to advice me i heard you) and i don't have a "mini"SD card, i read on the web that we can flash with the internal memory of treo.
If you can give me more information, a complete "how to" or let me the url of something like that.
Thanks a lot.
@Moderators: I know the search function on a phpbb board, but I find nothing, so, sorry.
