Do you have an M500 already or something else ?

Hello, ladies and gentlemen.
I will be relinquishing my i-mate JAM for an M500 in a few hours, so I'd like to take the opportunity to thank everyone here for a great time and experiencing hacking away at these HTC devices. Though we've accomplished much, it's a double-edged sword with HTC and their branding companies such as i-mate, Dopod, O2, etc. They give us enough leeway to make some really cool customizations, but they also have the attitude that 'if you want features you're missing in your current software, we'd rather you purchase new hardware (read: WM5).'
The Eten M500 seems to be a very formidable competitor with some serious technical support and definite upgrade path to WM5, so in the long run, this will likely outlast the JAM in most respects.
When I get my M500, I'll hope to find a way to get into the bootloader and make a dump of the unit and perhaps end up helping the community who's helped me and countless others with their HTC devices.

Thanks for you time here and at HOFO

it's sad to hear that you are leaving xda-developers...
Yet.. I wish you best luck with your new M500 :wink:
I hope we can get great info from you regarding the device... as always
thanks for all of your time
cheers

@BeyondtheTech
Has ETEN's build quality improved? Their first few attempts at PPCPE were not so good... maybe you can share your ETEN experience when you get your m500. Have fun with your new device!

ETEN :shock:

I was actually talking about the Orange M500, sorry if the conversation went awal..

imate or qtek?

I know this question comes up in every phone forum at least once, so I thought it is time for the Tornado forum as well.
I am trying to decide between the SP5 and the 8310.
For me, fast ROM updates is the important factor. Support, schmupport, that I can get it here much better than from any tech support line.
To this day, I have owned 3 imate products. Although I like the fact that they have ROM updates, I am disgusted by how they don't back up their products. I had a JasJar that became a brick within a week I had it, and for a whole month they lied through their teeth to me about how they were just about to help me, just wait 2 more days.
So, not wanting to give them any more business, I am looking at the Qtek now, but how is the ROM update situation? Do they have a ROM update for the 8310 yet? (imate does) Do they post rom updates in a timely manner?

I have the Qtek, no ROM updates yet that I'm aware of. You can put the iMate ROMs on it if you like.

there is no israely web site (for now) that sell the cruise.
you will find (from the next month) dealers that will sell it, but you can count on it that it will cost no less then 1100$ at lest for a 2-3 month.
i orderd the cruise from Europe (i'm from Beer-Sheva) and i'n waitng a friend to came back...
i payed arount 600€ (3400nis) and hope to get it soon.
by the way, www.pocketpcfreak.com is THE place for all the israely ppl's ... if you stay in israel, how you can't read hebrew ?
Shalom and good eavning

Then, you can write in english, and ask for english answer.
trust me, this way you'll know hebrwe faster

I live in Israel and got the cruise 3 weeks ago. My father is a pilot so no prob for me.... I would recommend you to order it over the internet, as our resellers will sell it twice the price and cruise is not cheap at all...
If you have any urgent questions about the toy, feel free:
054-7654037 hebrew/russian
or I would at least insure you that all the stuff works with orange, mms/hsdpa/video call....
photo camera is really cocky.
BTW do you know of some way to make it see Hebrew normally ? I tried the "paragon lite LEng" or something, it's damn bad.... slows the system a lot...

whooray... according to the amount of calls I am getting last days, this phone will be damn popular in Israel . Keep it coming.

re
I ordered mine from Windowsonthego.com
They offer local pickup in canada but ship worldwide.
Hope this helps
Thanks

Why no cooked iMate Ultimate series rom?

Is the device that difficult or that those that know how to do it does not have the device? I'm sure some of us wouldn't mind helping to dump the rom, especially the beta wm6.1 rom.

I think it`s because some I-Mate models are non HTC manufactured as this forum specializes on HTC, but a Mod or Admin could give a better answer.
Good day

i have an imate 8502 as well as samsung i780, there is an 6.1 upgrade on this forum for the imate... and i am very happy with it...
just to let you know imate is in truble with money...

I actually knew that iMate is in trouble financially, but that doesn't mean we can have cooked roms. I was hoping that there would be some cooked rom that would free up more program memory and remove some of iMate's bloatware.

i got it for free thats why i am using it, if you ask me to buy a product which may not have support in near future i will not buy it... and u are right about the things imate have loaded on it are useless to most of us... i hope those could be removed..

i'm selling my imate 9502 when i get my X1 !

I ordered this nice and almost unknown device, and hopefully it will be in my hands tomorrow.
I already looked at the ROM, and I noticed that the image is in it's own format.
Now I'm not so skilled in the low level work needed to dump the image and to reassemble it in a flashable format.
But I hope in the help of a guru (maybe EFN ?) here.
Thanks in advance.

I'll be getting mine in about a week from Australia. I'm also willing to help out if anyone care to provide guidance. I just needed someone to point me to the right direction. "EFN, boleh tolong tak?"

I-mate is the Worst PPC in Milky Way Galaxy
I-Mate Ultimate Series = the Worst PPC in Milky Way Galaxy + No Support + bad Results + Low CPU Speed .....
I trying to say its good BUT its Worst ..its Worst ..the only thing that i can say : its Worst PPC
there is no builtin software in officail rom from I-mate .. when u buy HTC u have many amazing software from HTC but in I-mate there is no software ...
when I-mate SAID the new series of I-mate is on the way i waited about 1 year for I-mate 7150 but where is 7150 ??? it was a lie ....
i have i-mate Ultimate 6150 = shame to say what i have
i have to buy my imate ultimate 6150 about to 1 $ and buy a HTC

Buying PPC - Suggestions needed

Hi
Im currently using HTC Magician but im lookin to buy a better second-hand ppc (i-e which can support later versions of WM).
Wizard and Prophet are the 2 PPCs im considering at the moment
I need your suggestions as to which PPC I should go for (keeping in view the financial constraint) and some points in favour of your suggestion.
Im looking forward to your suggestions
Regards
Bilal

Wow, you really are going for some older hardware there! In fact, it may be difficult to find new Wizards and Prophets!
If you want to save money, you are probably going to be better off at this point going with a Hermes or a Kaiser. I can personally recommend the Hermes as I have had one, but I know lots of Kaiser owners out there who love their machines too. Both are well-rounded machines with loads of functionality. I haven't looked lately, but I bet you could get a new Hermes for around US$300 if you shopped around a little. Kaisers will probably be a bit more.
If you are looking for something smaller and don't need the keyboard, you can probably find a good deal on an Elf.
All three of these models were very popular, but have pretty much run their course. No doubt some merchants who have over-bought these models are trying to get rid of them before they become completely obsolete.

Well that depends on what are your needs form a PPC
Look here and compare: http://pdadb.net/

been a wizard users for the past 3 months, have to say its a nice phone, havent tried the Prophet (yet )
as said above, try to compare both of the phones
edit : saw that ur from pakistan , nice to see ya, im from karachi though..but currently in Bahrain

I just upgraded from a Prodigy/Wizard to a Kaiser/TyTN II. It's a huge step up. I'd recommend a Hermes/TyTN or a Kaiser/TyTN II over a Prodigy/Wizard.
I tried several WM 6.1 ROMs on my Wizard, but development on each halted.

Thankyou for the reply
I live in Pakistan, there are alot of Wizards available and I can get a second-hand wizard in good condition for $90-100. Ive checked on Hermes, It is available for almost $270-290 (second-hand)
Im giving prices as I want to get maximum out of my savings (same old problem with students!)
I tried e-bay but no one out there seem to ship it to my country

The Kaiser/TyTN II is the only one with an official WM 6.1 upgrade. Both the Prodigy/Wizard and the Hermes/TyTN have unofficial WM 6.1 ROMs (made by the cookers here at XDA). Most of the unofficial WM 6.1 ROMs for the Wizard have been abandoned by their cookers.

the kjam is the Wizard, the Jamin is the Prophet

i would angree with that, have you taken a look in the wizards section?, a new ROM releases every day, esp the TouchHD CRS Series

thats why im taking ur expert opinion that which ppc should I buy
just weigh all the pros and cons and gimme a suggestion - ill go for it!

i have a hermes with t-mobile 6.1 ROM. Its a very good allrounder. Decent performance.
I just upgraded to a Kaiser and ams o far very impressed. Big step up in general performance over the hermes. A lot more responsive.
But a good deal more expensive too.
if you can stretcht to a Kaiser i'd get that. otherwise the Hermes is a very capable device.

ELFin
This week a pal bought a Mint ELFin for US$350.00 shipping included via Ebay. I've owned many smartphone and some touch phones...as I keep saying...the EFLin to today is my favorite. Why? Small, with a pcm keyboard, Manila, and a few other goodies, it will give a run to any phone out there on the market.
