Hello
I have i-mate spl with wm5. I have some questions
1-Is it possible to downgrade to wm2003, since it's a stable OS and by far better than wm5?
2-How can i install programs that I used to install on wm2003 (i-mate sp3)on this device (I-mate spl), sicne I tried to install many programs on wm5 and it seems they aren't working?
thanks

well i CID unlocked using aWizard, and i SIM unlocked using Lokiwiz (all this is on these forums) and then i decided to flash my spv m600 to the latest arabic i-mate jamin rom.
it all went well and works fine, only problem is the arabizer suite, it installs but doesnt run, error message displayed is: cannot run on this device.
its kinda strange coz iv always used imaginet arabizer suite on any device, and not one that was originally an i-mate.
any help on this is much appreciated.
p.s. i thought id post this in upgrading as it is related
Hi all I'm still newbie in this forum.
I have a MDA Vario T-Mobile I bought it from my friend (2nd hand), now its used a iMate ROM. I don't know which ROM that he used to upgrade the PDA.
I want to ask can I upgrade my MDA to WM6? When I resest my MDA it displayed:
IPL 1.01
SPL 1.06
GSM 01.01.10
OS 1.1.9.3
What should I prepared to upgrade my MDA to WM6? Thanks before.
Regards
Dari mana?
From the looks of your IPL and SPL, seems to be a G3... so not a problem...
from wiki
A G3 Wizard will have the following
IPL: 1.xx or 2.xx or 2.xx.00x (Note that this version only has TWO 0's.).
SPL: 1.xx or 2.xx or 2.xx.00x (Note that this version only has TWO 0's.)
A G4 Wizard will have the following
IPL: 2.xx.000x (Note that this version has THREE 0's.)
SPL: 2.xx.000x (Note that this version has THREE 0's.)

So what (file) should I prepared to upgarde my ROM to WM6?
Oh I forget I have another problem. Why my MDA when sync with my PC sometimes disconnect by itself, now it's more worst I can't sync my MDA to my PC. I used Active Sync 4.0 Windows 2000 SP4.
HELP....SOS....
macam ni, susah sikit.. (dari Malaysia)
I don't know but after reading so many brick units, maybe it is better you do a hard reset and see if it solves your Active Sync connection problems before attempting an upgrade..
My MDA now can connect.
@new2city
If I want to upgrade to WM6 what should I prepared? How I can know my MDA wa CID unlocked? I read on Faria WM6 thread we must have 2xxx bootloader version. I don't know how we can know our bootloader version? And the last question I want to know how to hard reset my MDA?
Thanks

you have to upgrade using that 2.26 rom!!! If you dont BEWARE the Devil will come for you
Ya you have to or you could just brick your phone! You have to have IPL/SPL above 2.00. The rom 2.26 as above will give you IPL/SPL 2.26.
And before you try to flash make sure you have read all you can, cus it does not always go right first time and you need to know what to do if you have a problem.
If you start flashing and it reset. Dont think it is dead try below
Hold the button voice button and press the reset button, when it sorts its self out you should have a screen with 3 colors. Connect your USB and flash away but use a non cooked rom. Flash T-mobile 2.26 again
I once had to re-flash my phone 6 times before I was happy! Then found out that i could have sored the problem by using a reg key!! LOL oh well!
I have already SPL 1.06 and IPL 1.01 can I directly unlock my MDA using lokiwiz? No need to downgrade to button ROM.
Thanks to the answer this forum rocks....

If you are still on IPL/SPL 1.XX
you should be able to unlock it with the lokiwiz software.
enjoy
Thanks guys now I'm on Faria ROM real thing but I'm still confused about my MDA why everytime I want to sync I must replace the USB cable more than two times to get syncronize with my PC. Some times it disconnect by it self, than I must reconnect again. Anyone know what happen to my MDA?
Hello,
I am not a really experienced user in ROM upgrading, IPLs, SPLs, and the works. I have read a LOT about these subjects and i still don't understand a few things. Nevertheless i tried.
I own a G4 CID-Locked Prophet (QTEK S200) as described in the title and i tried upgrading to WM6 "just to see" what the hell would it do.
Before trying this WM6 upgrade i tried yet another thing which is kinda risky and actually turned this same S200 into a brick temporarily. I used the known shelltool_bugfixed application to upgrade to AKU 3.3.13 (extract OS from a complete ROM, then replace the OS file with the AKU 3.3.13 one) and it worked. I tried doing the same with clean1 V2 ROM and it bricked it.
I reflashed the Prophet with an original ROM using the novendor-id RUU, thinking it would never bring it to life, but it did. Also upgraded my SPL to 2.13.0001.
Then i tried upgading to clean1 V2 WM6 rom again (Jesus, stubborn guy) just by simply decompressing the files and running "UPGRADE_ROM.BAT". And it worked.
I was REALLY surprised because i read over and over again about this and i had the idea WM6 needed some special IPL and/or SPL and that my device had to be CID-Unlocked before the upgrade.
These are just a few events of yesterday and today with my Prophet which i wanted to share with you. I still find it unbelievable but here i am, running WM6 and happy as hell with it. WM6 really looks awesome and works a treat
^_^
If you dont write IPL/SPL without the right CID, you cant use all WM6 Firmwares ;-)
So you mean IPL and SPL are directly related to CID-Locks?
I wish i could understand that, it would help me figure out what i can use on my CID-Locked Prophet and what i can't... before i brick it for good
As i said above, when i "brought it back to life" with an original JamIN rom, it upgraded the SPL to 2.13.0001 (it was 2.10.0001 previously).

Don't know what your are talking about but all wm6 in this forum gave me no problems when i flashed them. Mine is CID locked G4 from ORANGE. So just try. There are lots of alternatives. All working more or less... Find the one better suits your prophet.
Read what i said in the first post. I know it's a bit confusing, but it says there i have successfully flashed my S200 with WM6 (smart1 V2 ROM).
I was just surprised because with all the spread information around WM6, i thought i needed to downgrade to some "special" IPL/SPL version or that i couldn't flash just because my G4 is CID-Locked.
After all, i can just flash about anything without bricking my S200. The only thing i think would brick it is if i downgraded (somehow) the IPL/SPL. Am i correct?
you can only upgrade IPL & SPL
but you can upgrade and downgrade OS
what I really confused about it, what is the relation between IPL&SPL and OS
as I understand, some OS need newer IPL & SPL
can any one correct me

as I noticed, there isn't any relation between IPL/SPL and OS
and upgrading SPL doesn't take any profits
how to downgrade my dopod 818 pro with ipl 2.15.0001 spl 2.G4.4pd showdow 2.0 TE back to WM5? thank you.
Flash the latest official WM5 ROM from your provider (if still available for download), that's all you have to do!

Hello, i was able to upgrade my I-Mate upgrade with a cooked rom (some kind of WM6.1 with All Languages but it's really unstable...). In short, i'm tired of this WM6.1 so I decide to downgrade the phone to WM5, it's was stable and fast but without spanish. After reading the post Imate SPL 6.1 ROM i found the RUU for the original version of I-mate SPL with WM5, but after running the RUU application an error message apper just before flashing "ERROR: Invalid IPL File blah blah blah".
I've also tried the SD method, but the screen goes White and nothing happens. Is there a way to downgrade from WM6.1 to WM5 using the RUU? or can I override the IPL and "force" the flashing?
Thanks in advance
