Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition Out Now ......
...but only for the Toshiba e800. The download which is free is the Windows Mobile SE release for the e800.
Perhaps that means that there will be a release shortly for the XDA II (and hopefully it will be free).
Yes... we already know that! (see the search function for further reference).
And perhaps (with a big P) it will come for the XDA/XDA II.
But i´d rather guess it will come for XDA III first, and then maybe we will see and upgrade for the older XDA´s.
well windows CE 5 is also comming so i guess it could be the os for xda3
and normal 2003 came out for xda1 when it was much "older" then xda2 is now
of cause if going 2003SE mean that most of the programs we use today will have to be recompiled to be rotate aware then i'm not going to jump that wagon right away
Hi
Do you think Windows mobile 7 will be available for Universal?
Considering the fact Windows Mobile 6 wasn't - I'd say No.
No
Non of the current windows mobile phones will have upgrade to windows mobile 7, it must have a diffrent hardware ( which is not in any current phone).
For Example : the multi touch screen
Although WM7 itself won't be, there will likely be some things that can be extracted and ported to the Uni. For example, FlashLite 3, if it isn't generally released for WM devices.
-PJC
The porting of WM7 to Universal down the line is VERY POSSIBLE (Thumbs Up)....however again depending on the timeframe and is basic requirements we should have better knowledge. How it will fare against new WM 7 devices am not sure, but I believe it will be pretty good. Even today, Universal is still in the top 5 devices of all time and still the best in terms many areas including Speakers, Screen, and keyboard (still the easiest to use, and easier than Touch Pro ...yeah really)...
Officially WM 7 will never be a part of Universal..Universal's production is at it's end..(was over for most retailers ages ago)..of course unsold boxes are still around.
Hello! I have an O2 XDA II Mini phone which originally came with Windows Mobile 2003 OS, and the specs are 64 MB RAM and 416 Mhz CPU. I've recently installed Windows Mobile 6.1 on it and suprisingly it works perfectly. So my question is, does my Pocket PC meet the minimum system requirements to run Windows Mobile 6.5, when knowing the fact that Windows Mobile 6.1 works fast and stable? Thanks!
hmm..as i notice there's no 6.5 for magician, for now..the latest rom to be released by Cotulla is still 6.1..but who knows he will make a 6.5 for us, or even 7
I am running WM6.5 on my Universal with 128/64 specs at 620Mhz and the major concern is available RAM, making the device just barely usable, therefore I would think the 64/64 Magician specs would hinder any 6.5 before we even begin to consider it. The way it is I consider it a bloody blessing to run 6.1. Cotulla is my hero.
I hope WM 6.5 will be release in the HTC Magician ) If it ok !! This will be the good news for us All of my HTC magician User . ( Sry !! My English isn't well ) ) I'm Chinese .
Yea i find it a push to even run 6.1. i have had to can opera and use iris browser. I doubt 6.5 will be much different to 6.1 but i will take updates to flesh out the very few bugs.
when it comes to updating the magician, better not to leap before you can walk
people,feel satisfied plz,Cotulla have no plan for WM6.5,there is no driver from offical,so Cotulla wrote it,he is only one person,he is not god,he have to work,to eat,to sleep.
I think the WM6.5 does not use the convenient WM6.1, but 6.5 to 6.1, however beautiful, I am Chinese too ~嘿嘿
Im fine with 6.1 ROM...
Guys check this out.. Somebody released a 6.5 for JAMA
Let's us hope and wait.. maybe some ROM builder will cook for magician also..

hi Nikolov, could you advice me how did you upgrade your O2 mini? I wanted to do the same to mine. Thanks
^^ check out cotulla's 6.1 rom WWE 04 is the latest for 64mb devices
Even if they release WM6.5 for magician I still would retain 6.1 from Cotulla. It would be stretching the specss of the Magician way beyond it was meant to be. I have a Himalaya which I was able to upgrade to 6.5 and although it worked fine, it used up too much memory that only have a few available afterwards. Besides, why do you want the 6.5 for anyway?
Can't wait WM6.5 ROM for my HTC Magician 64MB, I'm wondering when it came out release by Cotulla?
hope soon
if we got rid of intensive today customisers 6.5 might be usable, I hope soon, if only for testing, too cotulla.

After you installed Windows Mobile 6.1 on it... Do you still have the ALBUM for Pocket PC Version 2.51 (Build 18676) originally in the device with Windows Mobile 2003 OS ???
Hi to all of you Xda-developers.
got a bunch of wm smartphones, and i am very interesting in upgrading my samsung sgh-i607 "blackjack"
wich runs windows mobile 6 standard to windows mobile 6.1 profesional or better yet to windows mobile 6.5.
i though that it was impossible, but i downloaded an sussefully installed in my htc 2125 a 6.1 pro rom.
im not an expert, but i can do the flashing and that stuff.
is it possible? thanks
i got this old phone because my iphone was stolen. windows 6.1 is on it right now. this is the at&t version of the phone. Please be aware that i know nothing about roms/phone hacks/etc...
i would like to upgrade this phone to windows 6.5 (or 7 if it can do it)...
thank you for your help.
also, what software do i use to hook the phone to the pc (windows 7 64-bit)
um, anybody! HEY THERE!
To connect the device to Windows 7 you will need Window Mobile Device Centre.

There is a link for 32 and 64 bit versions.
For upgrading the ROM start here.

Mobile 7 is probably impossible.
Is the upgrade form 6.1 to 6.5 worth all the hassle?
well, let me ask you: is winmo 6.5 way better than 6.1?
Only if you really need the finger flicking Sense iPhone style user interface. That's all it seems to offer over 6.1
First off unlocking the phone and upgrading the stock Rom is probably the best thing you can do to improve performance .
I did this and am running basically a stock Rom with all the garbage-ware removed, it is more stable and faster . See my sig for the Rom..

6.1 and 6.5 , both have there advantages , it all depends on what you like..
