ROMs, upgrades, OSs...!!

Once and for all (or at least for now) can someone tell me what is the latest ROM version for the I-mate Jam (and all those other things its called), latest WM OS and where do I get it?! I'm still confused after an hour of browsing through the forum...
p.s. is there such a thing as WM2003SE 2.02?? and is it fit for my Jam?
Thank you!

I don't believe you have spent hours reading this forum m8! :twisted:
Anycase: the latest ROM is v1.11. But you have to check which kind of device you have (Qtek S100, Imate Jam, etc..) before you can install the appropriate update.
As I read you have an Imate Jam? (Are you sure?) Check the Imate website... there's an official v1.11 update there, cos I don't think you'll be able to to anything else :wink:
WM2003SE means Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition, which is the Operating System of the device (included in the ROM)

downgrade wm6 to wm5!

Hy...I have a G4 model, Qtek s200, and i was wondering if I will install a wm6 version, and if I will not be satisfied, can i downgrade to wm5 back?

I think so... Even if have CID locked, but i'm not quite sure. Anyone correct me if i'm wrong please!!

Hi:
I have one HK 818pro G4 model and have tried wm6.0 and downgrade to wm5.0,
it's no problem.
palo

Yeah, it's no problem to downgrade! I played yesterday with some different WM5 ROM's (Orange UK, Qtek and O2) on my G4 XDA Neo and had no prpoblems at all time!

up
so, i don't have to follow some specials steps...the normal way, no?

Yes, just follow the normal steps to do it. By the way, which WM6 rom you will try?! Looks like the smart1 clear it's good.

up
first of all: i want to install a wm6 version, but i don't know which one ... I have G4 model..can you give me an advice? also, i want without bugs if i can (that's the first reason that i didn't try yet)... i mean, to connect on wap, to work fine the new wm6...if you know what is the "perfect" version to install on my device, i am waiting your opinion

There is no "perfect" WM6 yet but the SMART1 WM6 Rom (clear) it's quite good... in this thread they talk about it and is litle bugs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=295225

I tried Smart1's WM6 ROM and successfully downgraded it to WM5 (I-mate) portuguese ROM by just using the normal procedure.
The problem is it doesn't work properly with Windows Vista. Don't try to upgrade to WM6 on Vista as it wont work properly!
Cheerz!

up
so your advice is to wait another version more reliable of wm6? i supouse that wm6 = win vista isn't it?

Just a question about downgrading - I read somewhere in the forum that it is important NOT to downgrade to a lower IPL or SPL because it will brick the device. is it so?

Hi,
Would like to know too how to downgrade without risking to brick my device...
I have a G4 that I upgraded to WM6 recently (SMART clear rom).
I liked WM6 but I have to remove it because it is only compatible with ActiveCrap 4.5, which doesn't support outlook 2000 anymore (version used at my office) .
my IPL/SPL : 2.10.0001
I would like to downgrade to last AKU 3.3 (couldn't backup my wm5 rom since my prophet is CID locked). Can I downgrade to AKU 3.3 safely?
Thank you very much

Yes, you can do it safely! My Neo is a G4 too and I switched often between smart1 clear WM6, the official O2 update, ASerg's 3.3.12 US nad the Qtek 2.20 with no problems!

MDA Compact ROM Upgrade

I see there is an Upgrade for the ROM/OS for the Magician which I understand should solve my SDIO Wifi card lockups ( Bios Upgrade needed) I see by the Post (UPDATE 2 - Fixes) Rom Wwe 2.03 For Htc Magician (jam) that it looks very straightforward. As I am very attached to this MDA Compact I cant afford for it to go down . Can u advise whether I can use the above 'Upgrade' with the MDA Compact which I understand is the same phone as the Magician?
Thanks

MDA Compact Rom Upgrade
Thanks for feedback on this matter. Whats the info about BIG Storage? Is there improved memory available on this upgrade? Anyone had any bugs or problems since the Upgrade? Certain comments have been about a 'Hard Reset' before adding the extra updates? Any tips on a successful Upgrade? Probably gonna have a stiff Brandy before carrying it out!

Thanks for the info. I'm now hesitating to change my factory ROM to WM 6.0 Blue: did you use BB Connect with 6.0 Blue ROM before? Did it work?

i didn't see there is any bb connect compatible for touch or touch xl in htc.com e club

Hi!
Yes I am using it with Blue Elfin ROM V3.0 and it works like a charm. Very recommendable.
JohnQ, you can download the BBConnect software here:
http://www.sems.org/entry.asp?entry_id=276
Choose the 4.0.0.92 version.
I would also download and install the Blackberry Connect Desktop for Windows Mobile as it is the best way to activate the Blackberry service in your Touch when you have problems to do it wiressly. Find the link and manuals here:

hi all,
i am using BBConnect 4.0.0.92 with wm6.1 and it ran effortlessly.
cheerios...

@Vintila
thank you so much. but im afraid i cant use it coz im using WM6.1 ROM lol

Are all your phones CDMA or GSM??

Gsm Touch Xl

Hi
It seems that 4.0.0.97 will only work on release ROMS, it hates cooked ROMS and will connect for about 3 seconds before disconnecting.
If you get a connect for a few seconds then the connection drops it is because you're using a cooked ROM.
My P3450's blackberry client only works on WM6.1 release ROMS.
I'm currently running 4.0.0.97 on the following:
Device:-----------------HTC Touch P3450
ROM Version:------------2.20.707.1B WWE
ROM Date:---------------10/02/07
Radio Version:----------03.12.90
Protocol Version:-------4.1.13.56
Cheers

I am using Touch(Elfin) with Shadow 2.1TE,
and I just manage to get BB Connect 4.0.0.92 to work!!! Hurray!

BB Connect
Hi,
BB Connect works like a charm here (plz pay attention to wm standard and wm pro versions on www.sems.org). I am using 4.0.0.97 on wm6.1 pro (tested on these roms: merlot, blue elfin) ....
the trick is:
1. Install a regeditor (e.g. PHM Editor)
2. Change the reg-key HKLM\System\Versions - Aku to .0.4.2 (yes, with starting dot)
Install BB connect ...

In my case I didn't need to do an RegEditing as my ROM is a release ROM and it already had the AKU setting but that is a very good point indeed!

Hi All,
Confirmed. It works after you change the regkey BB starts to work smoothly! I'm using WM 6.1 HTC official WWE version ROM
Thx the hint.
Br,

Hi
I have tried it on apparently official WM 6.1 pro HTC WWE version ROM
R 1.65.16.25
G 25.83.40.02H
D 3.28.00.00
I was installing BB 4.0.0.97
Change settings as above and it didn't work..
Can anyone post the link for a WM 6.1 pro that they know (tested) it will support bb connect.??
Thank you
Edit: I've got TYTN II and 4.0.0.97 was working perfectly with factory WM6.0

hi all,
i have managed to get blackberry connect 4.0.0.97 working on a hermes 300 with a cooked ROM "MRH 6.3 Rainbow" using the regedit method, the rom is a 6.1 rom
however i am getting strange extra mailboxes on my device with hex names similar to the issue that can become apparent if a blackberry user was to accidently install the BES software on to their computer then sync. where the device trys to register itself with a BES and fails
anyone got any idea what is going on here? as it has me baffled
***edit***
i also get an error message telling me that there is not enough storage, and that i should delete some messages when the service books are sent down to the phone

Anyone know if this will work with the VZW XV600 (aka HTC or UTStarcom 6800)?
If so... which BBC should i use and are there any modifications required?

Cotulla rom work well with my magician BUT

BUT for my Alpine , why it still only WM 2003se? Before Alpine and Magician are
device that work only 2003SE ,but magician now have alot of rom while Alpine still use only 2003se .So Cotulla ,could be help for Alpine rom (WM 5,orWM 6.x) .pl if can... becuase everybody alway say Alpine is crazy PDA that still only 2003se while another device used any rom.
