Vodafone V1640 - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development

Hello.I bought a vodafone v1640 (1 hour ago.....so i am new ) italian.The gui who sod it said i can't put the wm6 on it but after all i read here it is possible.
It is written : rom version 1.30.106 ita,radio version 1.14.10, ext rom version 1.30.260 ita. I wish to put wm6 English version can you recommend me something and give me some instruction please?
Thanks in advance.

I also have a v1640, otherwise known as a Universal.
You certainly can load WM6 onto it, just not an official copy as that doesn't exist, but as there's no warranty to worry about so what.
Unforunantly many of those providing WM6 ROM's have moved onto newer toys..
At the moment your best bet is Tomal 8.2 (WM6.1) with a newer version being tested.
The most important thing is to read and learn before you do anything, but you've already got this far so you're halfway there.
Read the Wiki, make sure your 1640 is unlocked (supercid) and follow the instructions to upload the latest ROM. WM6 is so much better the WM5.
Happy tapping.

QTEK 2020 ROM upgrade to version 1.72 and dcs
http://www.qtek.nu/files/RUU172752WWE.zip
is the link to the ROM.
This ROM is not sim locked (In place of Operator it is written Qtek). It is WWE (World Wide English). Please read the comments and guidelines by dcs beforehand.
I personally upgraded my ROM only after I made the necessary controls posted by dcs. I did not have any problem. My phone is working very stable.
By the way thank you very much dcs for the hard work and very helpful guiding.

HELP! Need advice reg. ROM

Hi,
I'm confused with the mass of information and complicated procedures I found here. :?
I got a HTC Magician here in Switzerland by Orange (known as SPV M500)
Operator version is: 6.06.5.164
ROM version: 1.06.00 WWE
Radio Version: 1.05.10
Protocol version 1337.39
ExtROM version: 1.06.164 WWE
I surely would like to improve the performance and especially the internal' memory by applying some upgrade.
Could a nice person guide me toward best possible solutions, please?
hi....
read the wiki....and know everything :wink:

Thanks; I checked this link, but except some valuable information, I found the whole thing even more tough to understand. I'm not an engineer, I'm just looking for a helping hand.
So I reiterate. Can anyone answer my question?
I'll have a go:
Upgrade your ROM. Yours is about 1.06, current is 1.12 (or 1.13? Not much differnce).
Ensure there is a language version the same as yours, and then upgrade. That's a complicated enough procedure, but follow the instructions carefully provided with the ROMs and you'll be ok.
The upgrade for more memory, is the BigStorage ROM hack. This will replace the area on your phone known as "Extended Memory", and convert it into more useful "Storage" that you can use. Basically, your phone gains 20mb of usable space. I've written an ENORMOUS post about this here (near the bottom of the screen)
To do BigStorage, you should use a tool floating around on the board that will patch ANY rom to BigStorage. That way, you can hack your own ROM for this. This is important because the first 400bytes or so of your ROM are unique to you, and you want to keep that. So I recommend:
1. Backup your PPC with Sprite backup or similar.
2. Upgrade your ROM to 1.12 (public sources or from the XDA Developers FTP site).
3. Make a backup of your ROM (optional, but advised).
4. Apply the BigStorage ROM hack.
You may be able to skip 4 if you can find the ROM you want at (2) already hacked. This is likely. But whatever you do, follow the instructions provided carefully. There are a couple of errors that are SUPPOSED to come up in the procedure. Read the instructions and you'll know what's supposed to happen.
Phew. It takes some learning, but you'll get there.

Hi Vijay,
You're great, many many thanks!! I assume I got a tough way to go. So I'll do it slowly so as to avoid mistakes.
My device' language is English, so no prob to upgrade with English. Now I guess I'll have to install manually the GPRS and WAP' parameters after upgrading, given the ROM does not come from my operator, isnt'it?
Orange M500 Upgrade
Hello. I too am thinking about upgrading my Orange M500 from 1.06.00 to the latest ROM. I have an Orange UK version of the phone. But 2 problems:
1. I have trawled all sites I can think of (including this one) and can't find an appropriate upgrade file anywhere - is anyone able to post a link?
2. I can't find anywhere that tells me what the advantages of upgrading are! Anyone fancy listing them?
Thanks!

Same here, I could not find information on what is improved (or not) with any of the existing ROM upgrades.
Surely they must be UP, but still it's strange there's no comment.
vijay555,
I am also fairly new with updating roms and such but I did manage to complete an update with the help of this amazing site and all of you guys out there. Your knowledge and advice has been wonderful and I thank all of you. Now, here is my question. I have a TMobile MDA from Germany I believe but with ROM ver 1.12.00WWE
Rom date 05/28/05
Radio ver 1.13.00
Potoc ver 1337.43
ExtRom ver 1.12.128 WWE
I have wanted to try the bigstorage rom but in reading all the posts and helpers I feel it is too much for me to copy to SD and yada yada yada. Am I understanding you correctly in assuming that in the xda FTP I would find a pre made bigstorage rom that I could upgrade onto my unit. I understand that I would probably have to re upgrade my radio unless there was a BS rom that had the latest radio in it. Would I be able to ask you that if I am right in assuming this do you know which of the roms I would use in the FTP site to give me that pre made BSrom and which "make" would or should I use(such as O2, orange) I line in Victoria, BC, Canada but I dont think that affects what "make" I should use, or does it? Sorry this is so long winded and I thank you in advance for your help.

Hard to find: Current best ROM (newest)

May I ask what is the best/newst ROM to use on a QTEK S200? Its hard to find out here what is new, newer or older...

Yes, that's what I'm wondering too, can someone please tell us what's the best english rom out for this phone?
I guess we all are on same boat, trying to find the best available ROM for prophet after WWE offcial ROM as its been quite a while for offcial ROM upgrade for this device.
Check the FTP
There are several cooked ROMS avail. There are several 2.3 versions, and the 3.2 Beta is also out. Do a search. As for which is the best, it depends entirely on you. What I do is READ & READ, until I get an overall sense which is the fastest, most stable etc. In the end, what many people say is best for them, may not be good for you.
But like you, I've been usin the Dopod official ROM since May, and feel it's time to inject new life into my device.
If anyone care to give a short review of the ROMs they've tried in this thread (or make a new one), it'll definitely help a lot of people...
If you love aku2.0 customized rom in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=269313, I bet you like this AKU2.3 customized rom.
ftp:/ /xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/Prophet-roms/RUU_Prophet_G3_2151327_AKU23_023021_P12MB_Dopod_PDAMobiz_v103.rar
(To download above link, copy url to your browser, delete space between ftp:/ /)
Software listed pictures check at http://www.pdamobiz.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=60019
It's AKU2.3 with extended rom as same as v.1.02, fast and stable.
================================================
But if you would like lots of application, check at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=277474 (MMS missing, but can be get in that thread)
See the pictures here http://www.pdamobiz.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=68751
You may choose 8mb or 12mb (less problem from users feed back).
16Mb_AKU2.3_GSM02.30.21_Extrom-4PDA.ru.exe
I am using 4PDA/Frog's 2.3 ROM from the FTP site. Its fast and stable. The problem I had with the PDAMobiz rom was its full of stuff and made to device slow, also it reset sometimes on its own. Also the backlight would come on for no reason.
I have tryed all the ROM's from the FTP site and this is the best IMHO.

hello,
is it possible to update an G4 Device by copy the nk.nbf file from the above package to a "G4 Rom" and replace the existing nk.nbf?
For example in the RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID Rom?

If you do not really know about it, don't try. Because it might be a possibility to break you prophet, if that nk.nbf has spl 2.xx.0000 inside.
Use itsme pdocwrite to upgrade to G4 by replacing ru.nb with your new os rom. (you have to use command "typho5.exe -x -v nk.nbf" at dos prompt to extract os-rom, check at ftp for typho5.exe tools)
Upgrade utility is in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=277474 (look for upgrade for G4)

Best ROM for Prophet (M600?)
well I can't really answer that can I but I can report the following.
I started off with the Orange oem ROM. Quickly I decided I wanted to get rid of this as I'm not with Orange (and I'm an incessant tinkerer), so I went for the RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.
My phone was unlocked using the IMEI-CHECK service (so not sure what they unlocked exactly but it seems happy for me to re-flash it).
I ran with this ROM for maybe 2 months- no real problems BUT I really missed the voice speed dial.
A couple of days back I went for the 16Mb_AKU2.3_GSM02.30.21_Extrom-4PDA.ru.exe
This seems to be stable so far, a "bit" more responsive maybe, but with the unexpected bonus of having voice speed dial again!!! Yes, this ROM has voice speed dial - hoorah.
So for any of you old Orange M600 users who upgraded but lost the voice speed dial this could be for you.
I've not spotted any major problems at all. The only odd thing was that the COMM Manager hard key was not bound. A 2 sec job to fix that.
Now I did do a soft reset before letting the hard reset process finish with the customisations. No idea what happens there in this case.
I <believe> my phone is G3?? The IPL is 0000 - is that correct?? I read and checked everything I could and it seems to have turned out OK.......
Is there any way that someone could do up a quick, idiot proof tute on how to update your rom on a G4 device?
Also, is this AKU2.3 rom 16Mb_AKU2.3_GSM02.30.21_Extrom-4PDA.ru.exe in russian or english? The website link which shows the AKU2.0 version is all in russian...
Thanks guys (from another n00b)

I never thought it would come thanks for letting us know :x downloading it now.
Of course this new rom probably doesn't contain any new upgrades to the phone than already known/listed on this forum.. but you never know
EDIT: As I tought: this ROM (the ENG-version) already exists for a while; it's quite old actually..
> it's just translated to dutch and posted on smartmobility.nl, so that it's official.
So it's nothing new and certainly no WM6-update like some people thought!
grtz
jammer
perhaps just an updated ext rom?
Could you all stop downloading the rom? My d/l speed is down to 2Kb/s
Just kidding tho...
It's probably the same rom as the Swedish one only with radio rom 2.61.21...

I'll post it on a faster server once my downloads are done.....(ETA when i'm 85 at this speed....)

How can I update my O2 Xda(UK) to the new ROM? The update progress starts when opening the downloaded files, but whit in a minute, I get the error invalid vendor id[294]. current ROM is a 2.15.x
thanx in advance!
try one of the CID unlock things (search the forum)... It provides you with all the files necessary to upgrade, except the nb.nfk (or something like that), which is in the rom itself. This is a bypass to the vendor lock....
Qtek S200 Upgrade - English Ver.
Upgraded my phone with the latest ROM release. My phone works much, much better now and it’s more stable than before.
A Major improvement, I use to suffer from phone suddenly switching it self off. Or when on charge with USB cable it would not come alive after disconnecting the cable. Highly recommending this upgrade!

Hi Guys =) This is my 1st post

Hi Guys, I own a Dopod 818Pro (G4). I have this problem now, It seems that my Prophet is running abit slow till I find it laggy. I am using the orginal ROM since day 1 I brought it. From the specification from Dopod webby, it tells me Flash ROM 128MB/SD RAM 64MB. Do I need to unlock the Flash ROM before I upgrade to the ROMs posted here. And also how do I go about it if I wanna flash a ROM to my Prophet. I read up many thread but all they say is about the ROM posted. I really hope someone can guide me into flashing a new ROM for my Prophet. Thanks a million guys.
Regards
Cal =)

Read wiki.
Choose the ROM you'd like to use and read the instructions provided in the topic regarding that specific ROM (there's no need to unlock for upgrading most roms).
Don't start a new thread, just because you're too lazy reading the existing ones. Your question has been asked about a 1000 times before. Just use the (advanced) search function..
I would recommend the latest official ROM for the Prophets which were released by Qtek. It's based on WM5 and has the version 2.20. It's stable and fast and already has lots of bugs fixed. I dont recommend a WM6 upgrade for beginners yet. Before upgrading make sure you installed Active Sync and fully charged your device. Then just proceed as the upgrade program instructs you. Always keep in mind that flashing a ROM file not ditributed by your phone provider/company may result in a guarantee loss. Also be aware that flashing sometimes might totally destroy (brick) your phone.
Good luck and a nice welcome to the forum
