Can someone walk me through upgrading my Prophet - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading

I bought this Prophet second hand a couple of days ago, and discovered that it has a couple of annoyances such as a slow camera and very slow bluetooth transfer speeds
i decided that the best thing is to upgrade to a new rom..
here are some information of my phone hoping a guru could help me by listing the steps that i should do.
i read most of the tutorials over here but i just want to be sure before jumping in.
i am currently downloading this
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Prophet/Prophet-roms/ASERG/AKU3.3.13.ASERG-us.RAR
is it the right one to flash with? if not plz post a link to the newest/most stable ROM.
Thanks in advance for whomever decides to help me
Prophet Info:
IPL: 1.00
SPL: 2.13.00
GSM: 02.07.20
OS: 2.13.9.23

ok
you have jamin g3 I think, look for what G device you have in the wiki, g3 or g4
udapte using RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID then unlock CID if you have g3
the bluetooth in the device is not slow as the same as all new mobiles, it is the stupid PIM profile from microsoft, you may use my rom if you want fast bluetooth receiving using dr yar bluetooth, it use also PIM profile but very fast and can show the sender name, and the name and size of the file.
or you may use ftp browser from htc, it will use ftp bluetooth profile and it fast also, the same speed of dr yar, about 64 kb instead of 16kb from microsoft
the camera no hope, I've been contacting HTC I-mate and Samsung (the chip maker) with no reply at all, they wont reply me att all about teh camera.

NEW ROM: RUU-Prophet-AKU2.2-2.20-2.47.21-Jester-r1

Hi,
I've created another ROM for the Prophet
This is based on the Qtek 2.20 WWE ROM (thx mwiberg)
This is a very clean and stable ROM, it has the standard Qtek 2.20 WWE ROM, with the qtek links/images/junk taken out, and it has some patches in the ExtRom to enable MMS/GPRS/A2DP
This ROM will upgrade your SPL to 2.20.000
This ROM will upgrade your Radio to 02.47.21
This ROM will upgrade your OS to the Original Qtek AKU 2.2 OS (2.20.7.34 WWE)
This ROM contains my own version of the Qtek ExtRom (2.20.7.114)
This ROM has a patched installer, so it will not check your CID
This ROM has both splash screens changed (the white HTC one and the next one with the IPL and SPL info)
This ROM has a standard page pool of 12MB
My ExtRom:
A2DP_Cert_Signed.cab = Certificate to install the A2DP patch
A2DP_Patch.cab = A2DP Patch
AutoRun.exe = Needed to start the ExtRom Installation
Cert_SPCS.CAB = Certificate for SPCS
Config.txt = config file for the ExtRom
MP-Shorcut-MMS1-Java5xx-CyberonVoice-CV-04Nov05.CAB = Voice Speed Dailer
MP_Customization_Prophet_Qtek_WWE_051205.CAB = Various Prophet/MMS/HTC registry setting
MP_CVSDcpl_20060220.cab = Voice Tag installer
MP_mHub_WWE_060124-2.CAB = WWE language
MP_MMSAutoDisconnect_060106.CAB = MMS Auto Disconnect Patch (stops GPRS after getting MMS)
MP_MMS_Patch.CAB = MMS Setttings
MP_SmartDialing_enable_0915_signed.CAB = Enable Smart Dialing
PP_DisconnectButton_16.CAB = GRPS Disconnect button
PP_ExtVersion.CAB = Set Ext Rom Version
PP_OperatorName.CAB = Populate the Operator Names Database
PP_Prophet-UAProf_AKU2.sa.CAB = registry setting for HTC prophet
prophet_a2dp.cab = A2DP Stereo Patch
P_ECall_112_911_QTEK_Wizard.cab = Set 112 and 911 as emergence numbers
P_PT_EnableSPN_Wizard_20060109.CAB = Enable download of Operator name (OTA)
Just download, run the file and after the upgrade is done, hard reset your Prophet (hold down both the camera and comm manager buttons on the side while pressing the reset button, hold the two buttons untill the screen comes up, then press the left green phone button)
Enjoy !
This is ONLY for G3
download G3 here
This is ONLY for G4

And yes, before you ask, I will release a splash screen updater for the people who don't like my Jester Splash Screen (Shame on you ! )
The Black HTC Logo's
This will ONLY replace both Splash Screens, it will NOT install or change anything else !
1. The White HTC logo will be replaced by a black image (nothing on it)
2. The Second Splash Screen will be replaced by a nice HTC Logo.

Again, just download and run the file.
Thanks jester, another fine release im sure.
How does this differ to the b1 of the same description? Just want to know so i can decide if to go from the b1 to the r1

go for this release, the other one is a beta, this is the release version
I contains some patches that were not in the beta (mainly MMS/grps/ad2p patches that didnt work correctly)
Jesterz,
After trying lsvw's roms, you finally came out of beta, so i am ready to try your rom.
My question is does your rom have the latest (8 button) comm manager, Sim manager and HTC's task manager? (lsvw's aku2.3 has that, which is useful for me, so i don't have to install extra-ware).
secondly, does do these two cabs do? PP_OperatorName.CAB and P_PT_EnableSPN_Wizard_20060109.CAB. I know you put in a short description, but what exactly does populate operator name do? and what exactly does download operator name do?
lastly, Does your rom have those so called "optimized" registry settings? such as increasing file cachse, disable animation, blah blah. Basically i'm asking if your rom is just a CLEAN rom or CLEAN and OPTIMIZED rom.
finally, there seemed to be flavors of 8 mb pp size and 12 pp size. based on your expertise, is having bigger pp size faster? lsvw claims his 8 mb pp is faster, which confuses me and seems to contradict definition of pool size :S
i've been following your work closely, so thanks for all your work, and dedication. i am diligently waiting for your aku3.3 results
Jesterz,
I have been using LSVWs 2.3 ROM and found it very stable, but not stable enough to not want to try this one
So I just installed this ROM on my G4 M600 and first impressions were great, very clean but also very very fast (interestingly I had used the 8MB page ROM as advised on other threads for the LSVW install???)
However I've hit a big problem, for me anyway. On registering my iTechS38 headset it correctly reports the device to have both "Hands Free" and "Wireless Stereo" services. Ensuring both these are checked I'm disappointed to find A2DP doesn't then work (Windows Media Player, Mort Player etc). In addition on returning to the Bluetooth configuration and holding on the iTechS38 entry I'm only offered to "Set as Hands-free" no "Set as Wireless Stereo" as I was previously offered with LSVWs 2.3 ROM. Editing the entry and both services are shown and are checked.
In an effort to check I hadn't just forgotten some basic step I reflashed my device with LSVWs new 2.3.1 ROM. Once again I was immediately able to add my iTechS38 and start listening to music.
Now that I've seen how clean and FAST your ROM is (along with other peoples comments on stability) I'm very keen to get it running with A2DP. Given the very prominent A2DP modules (which I saw being installed) and refinement comments for the R1 release am I just missing something really simple something here?
Can anyone else out there confirm they have A2DP working, ideally with an iTechS38 headset?
Thanks in advance
Jeff
PS I'm more than happy to have your artwork appear on each reset (it still does following LSVWs 2.3.1 update!) in my eyes it's the least acknowledgement we owe to you for all your efforts. I await your AKU 3.3 release with anticipation and would be happy if the only significant improvement was a resolution of the A2DP quality issues.

If you install this new logos, do you have to hard reset you device? i didnt understand exactly.
Thank you!!!
no, just run the logo update and thats it, it only flashes the parts of the rom which holds the pics.

I will have a look at this, mind you, I don't have a headset like yours so it's hard to test, also I don't want to "mess around" too much with these patches as I want to keep things stable and in their original AKU 2.2 state as much as possbile
for the other people, no this does NOT contain the "new" comm manager (which is WAY to slow and unstable if you ask me) or the task manager (as that is an AKU 3 feature) I don't want to mix AKU features with this release as I want at least this release to be stable and as close to AKU 2.2 and as clean as possible.

the cabs, the first just puts two operator names in the registry (telecom operator names, like Orange,KNP etc) to create the entries as they are not there to begin with
the second cab enable OTA reading of the operator name (it will read the name of the telecom operator that is being transmitted from the GSM tower) and it will update the previous entry with the correct name
This ROM is clean, i didn't add the optimize reg setting you describe, you are welcome to do so on your own
the standard page pool is 12 mb, you would think the bigger to PP the better, however, if you decrease the pp to 8 mb the OS will have more memory available for programs, which might speed up your prophet, so it depends which software you run.
I believe the 8mb is a little faster, however it's not much.
hi Jesterz. My phone is O2 Neo with no CID Unlock. Can i upgrade my phone to your rom ??
Thanks for your answer !!
FYI, i have installed this rom for a week now...and i cannot be more satisfied with its performance. If you are looking for a rom that is stable, fast and capable of receiving calls, do not look further! This is by far the best rom i have tested...and i have almost tested every single rom out there regarding AKU2.2 and AKU2.3 by Jester and LvsW...
Hi there,
I've not yet tested your updaten just installed.
Your boot screen scares me ! !
illanz
hi Jesterz! my phone is g4 cid locked, and has a dutch version of windows mobile. can i upgrade it with your rom?
tomas
jester cooked Rom
first jester, greetings, one hell of a job.
i tested your rom on Pro application (i develop security solutions and now i enter the Xda applications) and remote video takes lots of resources , but your ROM deal with it the best. no clogging gagging what so ever.
how ever i have a question: is it possible from you to allocate more memorey
for running programs and less for storage, or there is physicale barricade?
thanks for your replay
xmanmaster: yes, there is a phsical limitation because of WM5. Programs & data are stored in internal flash memory (on the remaining of the 128MB ROM after the windows installation). The RAM is 64MB and the free amount remaining does not depends on the ROM used, unless the cooker plays with the pool size. Standard pool size of 12MB leaves about 24MB free, 8MB pool size leaves 28MB accordingly.
jester: Tried standard release with 12MB pool since 2 days and today i'm trying 8MB beta version. The only issue which surprised me in these 2 versions is that RESCO KEYBOARD doesn't want to become default input method anymore. Registry key doesn't change and if i force manually, Prophet doesn't boot, ending to hard-reset. That was ot the case with previous Qtek 2.09 ROM, imate 2.13 ROM and Dopod 2.15 ROM. Do you have a comment on this?
I did not yet notice any visible gain over Dopod ROM but maybe time will show.
By the way the boot image is very cool and won't change it. I would srongly welcome ALIEN as well.
CID Locked or not
Can anyone tell me how come I can find my O2 Xda Neo G4, is CID locked or not???
Also can I load this ROM, regardless it is CID locked or not?
Sorry for such basic Q's...
MMS Missing
Hi Jesterz, I have a XDA Neo. I had uploaded yr Beta version which worked fine. Today I have uploaded the latest version r1.
Have not checked everything but i fidn that in messages switch accounts option MMS in missing.
can u help ??
thanks in anticipation

It is a big question, but all your questions are answered in this huge forum already, so you have to go and do some reading and searching for yourself and you will find all your answers, plus more and you will learn a lot. You will see what people said about 6.1 and you will see waht people said about BT just by reading other threads.

1. the vibrate function can provide you hours of enjoyment, with proper placement (external or internal, your choice)
2. install as many programs as possible, filling up both main memory and storage card, using them once or twice then never use them again. after flashing a new rom, install a new assortment of software you probably don't need.
3. re-encode your favourite pr0n to ppc scaling and impress your friends with today's pocket pr0n.
4. port over wm5 from the wizard (blinding speeds, you won't be sorry)
5. read ALL the stickies in Kaiser upgrading area of forum (this isn't near as fun as the other suggestions, but you'll be able to answer your own questions, and be comfortable in the knowledge that you can hack your phone "without any help")
1 and 3 make a nice combo too!
Yes there is a WM6.1 upgrade, i am using Shaps at the moment and it seems to work fine for me.
WM6.1 doesnt give you a huge amount new, Shaps 6.1 rom for me has been stable and quick, i dont tend to install much on my phones though other than the included stuff. I do a few bits and install TomTom. 6.1 has threaded sms which is nice but has some annoying little issues, like i cant seem to find a way to forward sms messages any more. bit annoying.
Flicking through some of the other forums people seemed to be muttering about not being able to sync there 6.1 phones with ex2003, i use ex2007 though so i cant comment, mine works fine.
Havent noticed any bad sound quality over bluetooth. Be more specific though, do you mean stereo bluetooth or just normal.
I use the htc home plugin looks nice and works well.
Hope i have helped.
Rob
ps. Remember before you rush out and start flashing roms, read the wiki and things. You have to do stuff like hard spl and things first.
If i were you i would do it in this order.
1. hard spl
2. sim unlock (if needed)
3. wm 6.1 rom
4. radio rom

Help with upgrading my K-JAM to WM6 & picking a ROM, etc.

Hey all, I hope you'll go easy on me as this is the first time I've ever flashed a WM device and the prospect of going wrong has caused me to post here! If anyone could talk me through this I'd be most greatful.
First off thanks for the guide which I've been studying for the best part of the day! I now think I'm ready to give it a try.
I have an i-mate K-JAM with an IPL/SPL of 2.16 which I assume means I have a G3.
I hope I've got it right...
I assume I'll need to downgrade using the Button rom to 1.05 then use Lokiwiz to perform a CID unlock (dunno if my device is CID locked or not, I'll just guess that it is).
Next step will be to upgrade to this T-Mobile ROM and then upgrade to IPL/SPL 3.08 to make the device boot faster.
Now it's time to flash with a WM6 rom right?! .
I'm a little wary of the huge variety of ROMs available. I realise I can't ask 'what's the best ROM' which is fine but I'd like to know which roms people would recommend for maintaining the same functionality of the original WM5 rom that came with my K-JAM, give me the ability to make VoIP calls (I have a voipcheap sip account) and be rather speedy.
I've heard good things about the TNT ROM which appears to have the above things I need. I assume this is the ROM I'll need - I think I'd prefer to add apps seperately so I guess it's best to go with the 'Official' version over 'Professional'.
About VoIP - I've seen people have been having issues with the other persons sound coming from the loudspeaker, has this issue been sorted now?
Let's say I decide to go back to WM5 (for whatever reason) at a later stage, I assume this'll still be possible by following the exact same downgrade/upgrade steps in the guide?
I hope I'm on the right path. Thanks to anyone who can help out!

Cheers, did you follow the same kinda procedure in my post? Have you messed with VoIP at all, if so how's it working for you?
Is WM6 running a lot smoother than WM5?

Sorry, I've tuned into your question late. If it helps, I'm using mfrazz's XM6r3 ROM (I tried a more recent one that was buggier and went back to 3.) VoIP (Internet Calling) worked "right out of the box"- I just had to load one of the VoIP configuration utilities floating around here to enter my provider settings.
The only two issues really are that it uses the loadspeaker instead of the earspeaker (but bluetooth works fine) and the biggest issue- the Wizard is just too d**m slow for Internet Calling to work well- the audio is very choppy without overclocking (which I'm loathe to do.)
Fring, from Fring.com is a decent app for VoIP on slow WM phones like the Wizard, so I have that installed as well. It lets you use Skype, Google Talk, and a few other VoIPs as well as one SIP provider all in one app. It's not perfect either- it also uses the loudspeakers, it's akward to dial from (it has no real "dial pad"- you can either dial an existing contact by selecting one, or another number by selecting any contact and "overriding" their displayed number), it doesn't support DTMF (so there's no way to "press 1 for English...") and it always leaves the device volume at full blast when you exit the app, but it's got the best audio quality of any VoIP app I've used on the Wizard. (I used it from Mexico back in January over my hotel's WiFi to make $0.02/minute calls back to the States rather than T-Mobile's generous $1.49/min roam rate!)

O2 Xda Exec, Monthly Contract O2 SIM, WM5.0, OS 5.1.1.1700 (Build 14354.0.1.1), Processor PXA270-520MHz, Memory 49.96MB.
I'm a writer and use Word, Notes (including recordings), Active Sync (Vista Laptop with Windows Mobile Device Centre, email (hotmail and ntl), phone, texting, camera--I think that's all.
My biggest problems with 5.0 are that I can't edit Word 2007 documents (.docx) and can't use SDHC cards. So really, I want a basic (vanilla?) version that behaves pretty well like the proprietory product. I'm not really too interested in lots of additional apps.
Bearing in mind that I'm very much a user, I'd be very grateful if somebody could advise me as to a ROM that's:
a) stable;
b) easy to install;
c) has all the features of 6.1; and finally
d) not too many whizz-bangs.
I appreciate that a lot of time, effort and expense goes into producing the ROMs--so I'm prepared to make a comensurate donation.
Cheers,
Plantaen.
I think Tomal 8.2 will do for you. Its the most stable and fast ROM I have come accross. Another new version from TOmal is in Beta 2 stage. May be you can upgrade to that as well once the final version released.
Read Wiki
Would first advise you to go through Wiki and understand what you are trying to do and find whether your Universal (O2 XDA Exec) is fully unlocked etc.,
Read as much as you can in Wiki as it helps to prevent future messup as anything going wrong could end up your Uni just a costly paper weight.
Tomal's ROMs are great and once you are sure that your phone is fullly unlocked in all respects, you can try any flavour starting from 7.7 through 8.5
Hope this helps.
Regards
I would recommend Tomal's Vanilla version: http://vidmes.com/xda/Uni/ROMs/Tomal...960_VANILA.exe. Give that a try and see how you like it.

if you look for serious word editing, I would suggest you to use the softmaker http://www.softmaker.com/english/
Regarding a ROM.. I would suggest Tomal V 7.6 or 7.7. my personal favoured is V7.7.
Anyhow before doing something on the rom read carefully and bring you up to speed. I heart upgrade on Vista cn be tricky so you need to find info and make sure you have at least bootlaoder > v1
Maybe U don't need to upgrade your ROM
Hi, Plantaen.
I think maybe U don't need too upgrade Ur ROM, U can try these :
1. file : PsiDocSDHC.cab, so U can read Ur SDHC Card In Ur Uni in ROM WM 5, like I do. U can search this file in this ROM.
2. I think U can save as Ur document in doc format, rather than docx format.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

After running the exe and upgrading, my XDA fails to respond
Hi, i used the "http://vidmes.com/xda/Uni/ROMs/Tomal/TML_v82_WM61_19960_VANILA.exe" to upgrade my XDA Executive and after the upgrade was over it asked me to soft reset my device, i did that and the screen displays Press '0' to restore factory settings or 'X' to cancel. the device is non responsive after that, pressing '0' or 'x' just exits and the device doesn't reboot. How can i now use my device? Please help.

1) Flash your devise with 2.05 Russian
2) Flash devise with our 6.1 beta

EDIT: Master Reset fixed it...
nadidlo, thanks Did you find English localization in menu?

nadidlo, my english is worse, so thats nothing
Can you tell me that programs are in Russian? (I'm dont interesting in start menu shorcuts).
hi Strik3r, i install WM6 and work find in english ( i'm italian) ,but i would like if you put Windows Live Messenger and the original File Explorer can you do it?
More instant acces to Camera functions and set instensity backlight on display could by useful.
It is possible than after upgrade with WM 6.1 is battery fast discharged?
Is there any way how can i change text color on homescreen? And can I organize items on homescreen? Somethings are uselessly for me.
In rusian are this program:
In start - Internet folder, software for sharing internet and opera mini
In file manager - button for new folder is in rusian.
Game ?emulator? Sega
In Accesories- Sim* and Settings (icon for wifi and phone, regedit, Mobile ntp client)
*.... i don't know what meaning this rusian text
Strik3r, i think that bluetooth don't go...
nikola360, bluetooth and wi-fi removed...
