Hi all,
Just got a M500 for work needs...
Wanted to upgrade the ROM to the newest available 1.13 or 1.12 tmob rom, as its on an old one, but I have been informed on modaco that the m500 has a diff ID code, so I was wondering if its safe to flash a MDA Compact rom to the M500?
I know how to remove device codes etc, its just I want to make sure it is compatible, and not turn the unit into a brick...
Did have a search but couldn't find the right answer...
So has anyone put a mda compact rom, or 1.13 on a m500?
Cheers all
no-one on here done it?
have seen the treads on upgrading to 1.13 etc, happy to go ahead only if i know it wont bork my m500... would i need to transfer the id code from the old rom to a new one?
I'm running the NL orange 1.12 rom atm and its fine, I would just liek to make sure im on the best rom available...
cheers
paul

Hi been browsing the site for ages now, and thought that i'd register and post my first question.
I have a s100 with an orange sim card, and was wondering if anyone has a Orange M500 rom, and if so is it worth upgrading to get all the orange stuff??
Cheers All
Dahquim
Just went from original orange rom (SPV M500) to the 1.12 Qtek rom and i don't have the feeling i'm missing anything.
To be honest i didn't even bother to backup the original rom, not worth the disk space.
But does the M500 rom not include BT voice dialling?
I have an Orange M500 and upgraded to a Qtek 1.12 ROM I forgot to backup my original M500 rom! is it possible for someone to upload to the xda-ftp!
Thanx!
Could someone detail what is in the Orange ROM that that isn't in the (eg) i-Mate ROM.
Would I be right in assuming that the Orange ROM takes up more space than the i-Mate ?
Operator version 6.06.1.175
rom version 1.06.00 wwe
rom date 01/06/05
radio version 1.05.10
protocol version 1337.39
ext rom version 1.06.175
Thats the details from my M500 rom.
I am actualy suprised that it is not branded "orange" to the eyeballs.
If you want the rom uploaded, post a link to the tool and i will upload it tonight.
I cant find out how to send a file to another device using bluetooth, anyone have any sugestions?

if the M500 is the same as my c500 then there is no native send via bluetooth support. On my c500 i used Smart explorer which has the option to send via bluetooth. Don't think there is a ppc version available. Maybe try resco. I was getting to grips with my m500, until i combined it with a pint of water and now its a dead machine, waiting for tests from the mobileshop!

okay, i found out how to do it....and its bizzar!
you beam it, like IR.
its odd, i phoned up orange and they didnt have a clue, if you turn off beam in connections it wont allow you to send or recive files.

Isn't the XDA IIi tha same as the Orange M1000?
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 a new NEO 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

Hi, I have listed the route I used to upgrade my Orange TYTN II, if you follow the steps I show on this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=357592
you will have a TYTN II No simlock, not bricked and fully working. thanks to the HARD SPL you are able to add any Rom or Radio you desire. the links I have added are using the ROMS i have on my TYTN II. There is also a follow up on my thread where in the event you need to return the phone original roms are available.

I am sorry, but i do not have time to explain this all. Would even take until the weekend ;-)
Hi All;
I am hoping that someone can help me.
(I have looked around for a couple of days - but can't find what i need...)
I am new to smartphones - but have Tytn II that i have flashed with a WM 6.1 ROM....
My biggest regret with flashing my Tytn was not taking a copy of the ROM before i flashed it - so i could take it back under warrenty if required
SO.. i did some more research when it came the the E650 i want to flash...
I can see how i can dump the ROM here..
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Vox_HowToDumpRom&action=BackLinks
but i don't understand how i can rebuild the files once i have dumped them into a ROM i can flash...?
Or...
The version of the ROM that i have on the E650 is 1.22.61.3 (Orange UK)
The prepackaged ROMs on the XDA FTP includes E650_ROM_version_1.22.70.3.zip (which is obviously a higher version ;-)) is this a UK Orange SPV E650 ROM that will be accepted for warrenty purposes? In which case - should i bother with dumping the ROM on my phone or just use E650_ROM_version_1.22.70.3 (which would mean i wouldn't learn anything though...)
Cheers

you need not bother about dumping the rom because the orange rom at the ftp is the official release by orange and accepted for warranty purpose.
talking of that even the original tytn rom is available here on the ftp so you need not worry about that either.

Hi Prajith;
Thanks for the reply - guess i won't learn how to do stuff today - though if anyone else wants to point me in the right direction to recompile a dumped ROM - there is always tomorrow
Prajith - i should have been more specific - i have the UK TMobile Vario III... there is no original ROM for that that i have found so far....
Cheers
SF
i am not sure of how to reconstruct the rom from dump but it is explained somewhere in the wiki or in the forum.
i thought you wanted the htc rom for kaiser which is available here on ftp. t-mobile's rom i couldn't find.
but i am sure it will come soon. they'll definitely release a wm6.1 rom.
Hey, I have a big problem and I hope somebody can help me.
I have a Kaiser which stuck up in the bootloader and I have flashed it with the false ROM and now I'm not able anymore to change the ROM.
So I need the original Kaiser / MDA Vario III ROM from T-Mobile Germany and not the Update.
go to kaiser wiki to have a look .I downloaded one there
There is not the one I need :-(
just take the 6.1
you get on t-mobile HP http://www.t-mobile.de/fremdcontent/1,2790,123254,00.html
In Case you want the 6.0 i should have a backup somewhere....
Please upload the backup for me.
You would save my life
