Hi,
I have recently bought an Imate SPL on ebay. It is unlocked and has come with WM 6.1. The only unhappiness that I have till now is its poor reception quality, specially indoors.
Radio ROM version : TCS_3.1_963P7.1
Do you think we can get the reception fixed by getting a better rom (if it is available for my model.
Thank you for you time and help.
Regards,
Navin G

Hello, i bought UK T-mobile MDA compact... Then I upgraded it to I-Mate ROM, and noticed quite a big difference in sound quality... I was stupid enough not to backup my MDA's ROM... So please please please... If anyone has original T-mobile UK MDA rom could you send it to me... or host it... I would really appreciate this...
Try to upgrade newer radio stack, at least it improved my Jam sound quality a lot.

Hi there!
I've just bought my new MDA compact and TomTom in a bundle from t-mobile.
This MDA was preinstalled with rom 1.13 shipped.
After installing and executing TomTom i got/received only a Blackscreen.
I called T-Mobile and TomTom and they told me that this is a a known issue with new MDA compact (shipped with fw 1.13).
I tried to downgrade my mda to 1.12 and get also a blackscreen. only a reset helps.
does anybody know what they have changed in designt?
Does anybody know how to resolve this issue?
T-Mobile and TomTom told me that this is a known issue, with currently shipped MDA's. It could take weeks until they will provide an ROM Update or an update for TomTom.
Not much of a help, but:
I have upgraded my MDA with ROM 1.13 and TomTom is working correctly here.
Could it be that your bundled version of TT isn't the same as the one that is bought seperately?
If that's the case, then TT looks to be spending more time protecting their software, than to make sure it actually runs! Not that there's anything new in that, it just sucks when you pay big money for something and it doesn't work as good as the pirated soft other ppl dl off the net...
Does anyone have the original T-Mobile UK WM6.0 rom that is shippped with the unit?
I flashed Dutty and its good but to be honest seems a little flakey with certain things not working as I expect and certain defaullts I don't like.
All help really appreciated on this one.
Cheers,
Neill.
found the reconstructed thanks - just wondered if anyone can tell me what the radio version is with the vario 3 for Tmob UK please.
Cheers,
Neil.

Hi I brought a HTC TyTN II a few weeks ago from an Australian supplier. The phone works great but when I try to install the “TOMTOM” navigation disk it says the ROM version is incorrect. I contacted HTS Australia, they say the unit is from Indonesia and so not supported here. Can anyone tell me where I can get an Australian ROM version? I am with Telstra for my mobile. I see lots of ROM versions on this site but not sure which one. ( sorry im new)
thanks
Tim
Yeah I'd like to get my hands on a current TyTN II rom for Australia.
I'm currently running Duttys latest rom which is working fine for the most part. I did have a small issue today where people on incoming calls couldnt hear me speak but a soft reset seems to have fixed that for now. Hope it doesnt come back
You can download it from http://www.asia.htc.com/Dopod_Aus/member/login.aspx You need to register with the serial number of an Australian phone to get access to the Australian ROMs. As far as I was aware the Australian (non branded TyTnII) phones ship with CoPilot and not TomTom. (At least mine did). So this may explain your TomTom issues.
Initially I flashed the Aust Hutch Three ROM to my phone but to be honest it really offers very little over the standard ROM other than the custom Three shortcuts which are easy enough to replace. I am with Three in Australia and very happily running Duttys Roms on my phone. I doubt flashing an Asutralian ROM will fix the TomTom isssue. I would be checking on its Authenticity and chasing it up with the supplier rather than HTC.
The Australian (non network branded) TyTn2's don't come with Tomtom taster, so an AU rom will not allow you to install Tomtom either... hope you didn't pay full AU retail price.
No Asian Tytn2 comes with Tomtom either AFAIK, even if it installs it will only give you a choice of US/Canada maps to download... making it useless.
Best bet is to buy Tomtom or another full version nav program. (and get onto whoever sold it to you asking why an "AU" phone would have the US nav taster (tomtom) bundled and not Copilot7 which is the official Australian bundled nav program.) If you got it from Ebay it is almost definately an asian grey market import... usually an SE Asia OEM phone (which have nothing bundled but Phone Backup, then some bad sellers include a useless US software disk to make it look more legit.)
I've got TomTom running on my TyTN II without a problem. All you have to do is go back one version to the .30 install and you wont have the rom issue. then you just need to copy all the maps and voices down to your storage card. I found the older version of TomTom on mininova.
Hi
My TyTN cam with Map King. I purchased TomTom as an option.
My ROM version is 1.82.707.0 WWE from 11/03/07, so its old. The phone has been working fine until i tried io install the Tomtom. I am also on the Telstra network. Thanks for the feedback so far.

Hey guys,
I have watched and read this forum for about 3 years, upgrading and modding my Cingular 2125 as things changed. I have ran into a bit of a problem with my phone recently and I am debating buying a new lcd and battery or just buying a "new" phone. And by new, I mean another of the same, I love this phone too much to upgrade to a new model. So my question is: I am on the Cingular/ATT network here in the U.S. and like I said, I have the Cingular 2125(Faraday). I was wondering if, in order for it to work on the same network, do I have to buy another 2125 or can I possibly buy a Tornado and thus get the WiFi? Do they all take Sim cards in the same manner? I have searched for this question but couldnt find a clear-cut answer.
Thanks in advance.
Buy a Tornado and unlock it using the unlocking software provided in this forum. Easy as pie and you'll have wifi. Also once unlocked, you'll be able to use the same sim card as you're using now.
Get a Tornado off of eBay. Search of an iMate SP5, a Qtek 8310/8300, or a Dopod (I forget the model). Qtek and Dopod are HTC's old brand names. I bought the Qtek 8310 for like $400 new several years ago. It was an awesome phone, so I understand your interest in keeping it. Both the iMate and the Qtek variations come unlocked and without any carrier bloatware. They will also work perfectly with Cingular/ATT (I know from experience).
As an aside, as much as I loved the Tornado, I don't regret upgrading to my current WM Professional phone, an HTC Touch Cruise, at all...just something to keep in mind if you don't mind spending a bit more.
Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. Bought a new battery for mine which helped fix the power problem and the screen is a bit blurry in spots but usable, but if it gets too bad I will look for one of these other tornados that you suggested.
