Ok, first of all I started the thread here as I am not aware where it would belong, I am fresh in here .
I received my PDA last month as a gift, it was probably purchased in Kuwait.
It has WM6, the version is JPHE2.
My main concerns:
Downloading my @hotmail e-mails automatically connects using Data plan, I need to use WiFi.
MSN Messenger causes GPRS to connect, too. I want to use WiFi.
Most importantly, I am willing to upgrade to WM6.1, I need the official ROM without any modifications if anyone can guide me through.
I have tried using samsungmobile.com but the version is "invalid" according to them, and the MEA regional website has only one software upgrade and it does not relate to my PDA.
I am aware these questions were probably asked by several posters before me but I did not seem to find the answers.
Thank you for your time reading, and hopefully answering!
I am most interested in upgrading to WM6.1, even if not Arabic (not JP).
Thanks.
Is it that hard?
I am considering entering a "customized" device version for UK and get its upgrade. What do you think?
if you really want to upgrade to a non arabic version of WM 6 try entering this "DXHL2" on samsung site. be sure to install the drivers
once you downloaded the update file. you need to extract the contents to a folder. you also need a hex editor to modify the updater.
it is the largest file on the extracted files. you need to look for a value "DX" on the near end of the file and replace it with "JP"
So you can proceed with the update..
good luck!
What's the country?
A link to a hex editor, please.
And what are the risks? Can I still restore to factory settings for example? I am worried it might lock out or something.
Thanks

Same Issue
I have the same issue here.
I have a Samsung (Bought in Kuwait) which holds the JPHE2 version.
I wonder if the solution posted above (upgrading to DXHL2) worked out for you??!??!?!??!!
Would it be ok to do that??? Would it mess up the cell phone or did it work just fine???
Anyone
Anyone???
Hey Khudary I have not tried it.

hi,
My fren have i780 with PDA+phone version JPHE2.
i try the above method and downloaded DXIB1 which is my phone version. using the Hxd to edit the hex, i able to update teh eboot and PDA to DXIB1 but the phone cannot be updated to DXIB1. currently the phone is working fine using WM6.1
my question is
1. is it OK if the phone and PDA version is diffrent.
2. anyway to update the phone part to DXIB1. if it is OK when can i find the phone only rom so i can update it using mirage.
TQ
I recommend you customized rom, because it's faster than official rom.

the HexEditor approach did not work for me.
My i780 PDA and PHONE version is JPHE2
what did work for me was this:
Follow heineken78's instructions from no.2 onwards
I use ironeagle's ROM
Mirage application will say "Launch Failed" but its ok if the phone boots up. If you look up at the version, it will say PDA version is DXIB1, PHONE version remains JPHE2.
Other than the period (dot) key being misplaced on the KB layout, everything seems to work fine (WIFI, SMS). I haven't tested Calls yet but i guess they're ok too.
Big thanks to ironeagle and heineken78.

I'm new to convergence devices and i just bought an imate jam "used", didn't come with anything, but I would like to upgrade to the latest ROM. I tried reading the sticky thread on top, but i got confused. I followed the steps, but I couldn't find the file that he stated on there. Then I just tried to upgrade it by clicking "next" on the "welcome to device software update utility" window, but that also failed, it said, "the ROM update you're trying to install is not for the device". Can anyone guide me through this?
Hi
Explain your problem better. Some specifics please.
Maybe you just need to use cracked baupgradeut.exe utility, because you try to upgrade with rom that's correct for your device but from other vendor.
Hello, thanks for replying !
I'm trying to upgrade the ram by using the ROMs stored here: ftp://xda-developers.com/Magician/Shipped_ROMS/
I've tried several of them, but whenever it reaches the end, it keeps saying wrong country code. I thought mine was a WWE, but that didn't work and I tried the UK, that also didn't work.
Dear Friend,
You should dawnload Maupgrade_noID.exe and extract all files from the ROMs in ftp shipped and than put this Maupgrade file in the same folder with the extracted files from the ftp ROM and then run Maupgrade_noID.exe. First time you will get again wrong ID code but you will need to run again Maupgrade_noID.exe and it will work. Attached Maupgrade_noID.exe.

freezing problem with ActiveSync 4.2
Do not connect the Universal to your desktop unless you have ActiveSync 4.5 installed in the desktop or it will freeze your device.
Disable ActiveSync connection in Universal until ActiveSync is updated.
ActiveSync 4.5 beta 2
http://www.redirectto.com/?go=645c1c6e5b
Regarding instruction 7:
# Put the Universal in bootloader mode by pressing Power + Light + Reset, which brings up an un-backlit screen with "Serial" at the top, and "v0.XX" at the bottom. (A lot of people get an error message if they are not in bootloader mode. They can install the ROM a second time. If you are in bootloader mode, you won't get an error message.)
I dont get what you mean by press Power + Light + Reset? Are you talking about the button on the phone? On my O2 XDA Atom Exec there is no light button..cuz when i open the bootloader exe it goes this is not a valid win 32 program. Bootloader is not meant to be opened from the PDa but from your computer but i cant open it.
>> # Put the Universal in bootloader mode by pressing Power + Light + Reset
> On my O2 XDA Atom Exec there is no light button..cuz
So, is an O2 XDA Atom Exec an HTC Universal then?

Probably why it doesnt work..so i cant upgrade to WM6? I realyl dont get why Australia only have the ATOM and not the Exec?
Quick Question
I upgraded to WM6CB which I aquired from torrentspy, and the upgrade was sucessful. The device turns on after upgrade, and the extROM loads up. After the reset, a window pop-ups saying that I have illegally aquired this ROM. Im not sure what I did wrong. I used the maUpgrade file aswell. Any help is appreaciated.

I've never seen that, sounds like someone's either added in that popup as a joke, or it's from a ROM dump of one of the RTM or MVP builds, and your devices IMEI is different to the one it was for.
I know MVP's had the option of getting Crossbow, but they had to send their device to Microsoft to have it flashed. Perhaps these builds have something coded to the IMEI.

Hi!
I have using it for 2 days. Initailly it seem difficult to install soft. But now easer, the RAM still down like WM 05, Soft Reset time quite longer then Ivan test 2's ROM. But the icon look very nice.
Alan, i think u should add the solution for "stuck in the bootloader" problem, by using UNI_exitbootloader.exe. this is much simple than using mtty IMHO.
Hello, I have unlocked my Cheetah thanks to all of you and saw a link on the site for a "full" 6.1 version, which I did, and it seems to be missing some things to I really want to go back to my original ATT 2.25 (original WM 6.0). I try to do this via the desktop and SD updater but since the version is newer on my Treo it will not allow me to do so. Can anyone help this newbie with instructions on how to accomplish this?
On another note a friend turned me on to your site and this is really awesome and I thank you for all of your time and help with all you do here!
You should not have any problem doing it via the SD card method. I did it on my other Treo. I dont know where exactly the hic up is. You should check your process again.

Use the SD card method, thats what I used to go back to ATT 2.25 wm 6.0
1. have you tried using the KaiserCustomRUU to load the ROM? Worked like a champ for me. just need to be sure to rename the ROM "RUU_signed.nbh"
2. using the official updater you need to modify the payloads.xml
Code:
<carrier_codes>CNG,ATT</carrier_codes>
(of course you may need to modify to match your carrier)
Code:
<revision_range>
<low>1.13</low>
<high>3.00</high>
</revision_range>
3. SD as last resort IMO since it takes forever to get the ROM on the card (assuming its already formatted fat32)

Use MTTY and do a "Task 2a" then flash any ROM you want.
hi all,
just want to know how to upgrade my xda exec on O2 to wm6 from wm5
what files do i need and where do i get them from? including instructions on how to do it.
many thanks to those of you who can help
First you need to download a WM6 or WM6.1 rom. It can be found here on the forum. So search for it and upgrade. Then you have to unzip it or just run it. (You'll see what to do.) Then connect your PDA to the computer and if it is recognized you may run the files that you downloaded. The uprgrade has a guide so you just have to follow that. Than reset your PDA, and you have the rom that you downloaded. (At least i did this way. And it works) For the first run you may wait for a little longer but after that, you are good to go.

hey i wanted to ask, how to revert back to my original official rom after i have upgraded with a cooked rom from here. is it possible and where to get the detailed info on how to doing it. thanks
To rewert back to an older rom you have to do the same. Just download on and run it. If i remember correctly you can find original roms also in the forum. Try serching for it. Good luck.
Hello everybody. I'm completely noob, so please have a little patience with me. I have a Treo 750 in italian, and my final goal is to flash it to wm6-english. But for start, i don't know what Treo i have. I read about Cingular, At&t, etc...
mine sais TREO750-1.16-H3I, h-ware version A, firmware version 1.27.0b.00.
So whom am i talking to every day? Is there a special version of wm6 for my phone?
I thought i'l start from here. Any help would be appreciated...
Ok... noone? At least tell me how I can figure if my phone is unlocked or unbrenched...
Or could someone point me to a tutorial-thread of flashing the phone... from the beginning to the end.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Cheetah_WM6
Maybe you'll find something around here for the beginning, ...
Stupi ... it doesn't matter which Treo you have when it comes to flashing ROMs.
Just do the HardSPL first. That way you can pick the English language ROM of your choice to flash and it will work. You also get the benefit of unlocking the phone so it can be used on any GSM network.
Ideally, you'd be best to pick an English ROM provided by the same company that provides your cellular service, but it is not required. If you pick one from another cell company (or a hacked one) then you might have to enter your network settings manually, but that's the only difficult part.
Plenty of resources in this forum. Do some searching and you'll find everything you need. Good luck!
One question, thought... i could'n find the answer on the forum. I downloaded the unlocher, but it sais it only works with spl 1.11, at least... Mine is 0.22.
I tried then to update with RUU_Hermes_QTEK_WWE_2.11.255.1_102_6275_1.38.00.10_108_Ship.exe, but in the "current information about your pda phone" it didn' recognize my pda. I got affraid of bricking it.
So, it seems to me my first problem is updating the spl from 0.22 to 1.11. But I cannot find the software to do this..
Come on men, this has to be simple. I need some help here, please. I'm stuck up with wm5 over a week now...
so, the first thimg I must do, a hard-spl, that's what I understood. This can be done with ceetah_unlocker.
Ok, i launch the application, and it sais it can't start only with 1.11 spl. Mine is 0.22.0000
So the first thing i have to do is update this 0.22 spl to 1.11. Am I right?
But how?
Find one of the WM6.0 desktop updaters and try installing that. They don't require a HardSPL first.
Use one of the following:
AT&T English: Treo750_2_25_ATT_EN_DesktopUpdater.zip
Rest of World English: Treo750_2_23_ROW_EN_DesktopUpdater.zip
Three Australia: Treo750_2_19_H3E_DesktopUpdater.zip
Vodaphone UK English: Treo750_2_18_VFU_DesktopUpdater.zip
I don't have any links as they aren't hosted by Palm anymore. You should be able to find them by looking around the XDA Forum, or by searching the net and/or torrent sites for the filenames above.
thanks a lot, man, but I lost my pathience and i run the cheetah_unlocker... and I didn't brick it. So, now I'm ready for the next step...
please, if anyone pm me with a win 6...
ok, my spl is ok (1.4), i put the CHEEIMG.nbh on my sd card, and I run the step 1 of cheetah unlocker. And nothing happens.. still boots with wm5. I even did a hard reset.
Man, i'm goig crazy... what am i missing?
Please, someone could upload again one of those 4 files? I could find neither of them with goolge.
So, i found the updater, but it won't update my phone since it's in italian...
guess I'll need to do it the hard way. Please, can someone point me a post or a tutorial to update from 5.0 to 6?

I must be missing something. I made those steps, all went ok. But how the heck do i change the windows version? That's my goal, not to flash the spl.
I got a win 6 image (i hope, at least), copied the CHEEIMG.nbh file on the card (which is fat 32), and i repeated step one from cheetah-unlocker. As I hoped that after flashing the new windows would automatically install. But nothing happened, the old win was up and running.
Come on man, I'm not such a bad person after all to deserve this... I may have killed a few birds or cats in my childhood, but this is too much... you're killing me.. I'm stuck in this spagetti windows, and I can't upgrade to a normal english windows... what the heck am i missing?
well, if you haven't gotten it sorted by now, hope this helps: once you've hard spl'd, put the new image that you want to flash in the root on your card [<2gb, fat32 formatted] and then hold media and push reset. your phone will cycle into the bootloader [rgb screen], detect the image and ask if you want to flash.
