Pls help NEWBIE @ work - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

hi guys just got mine siemens sx56 known as wallaby
i would like to upgrade it windows on it and softwear as well
when i turn on the phone gives me this
ROGERS
in the bottom right corner it says
g1.3.3
ra33 .03
r30.07
what does all that mean?
like i said i'm very new to this site and would like to get a step by step from some of you more experianced people
i found out that my pocket pc is ver. 4.20 (build 14053)
1996 - 2003 copy right
what windows is in this ? cause i can't play any MIDI files as ringtones
thank you for your pationts with a new comer like me

There are not many ROMs that are newer than yours, so i would stay at your current ROM....
For adding Polyphone Ringtone support try adding the content of the ZIP-File in your Windows directory on your device.....
Stefan

hi thx for the reply but as me i went ahead and upgraded it to win 2003 se ... but now the battery life on that is so low
what do u recomend me do now?

Visit http://www.romkitchen.de/ , cook your own ROM (i would suggest 4.01.12 ENG) with some application included and be happy....
WM 2003 SE is not very workingfriendly, cause it has some bugs in the Wallaby version....
Stefan

thank u very much for ur help
but as for Poly ringtones ... i still can't get the phone to play *.midi or mid files ... any sugestions?
or even set them as ring tones ... i have to convert the midi files to wav and that takes up alot of space

I have the Offical O2 (UK) PPC 2003 (4.01.12 ENG) Rom!!!

I have just got my xda back from being fixed by O2 and they seem to have upgraded my rom.
Before I sent the xda to them the rom was simply the latest ppc2002 rom from their website.
However now everything has changed and my rom version is 4.01.12 ENG
This seems to be an official release form O2 as I have their auto configuration and boot screen.
My bootloader has also been upgraded to V5.22.
I have backed up the rom using XDATools and hope to upload it to the site although its approx 31mb.
This seems to be all official and what everyone has been waiting for however if i've completly missed the point please let me know (politely please )
As an added note I have two broken xda's for sale: -
1) A 64mb XDA with the above rom installed. The screen is smashed, and will need replacing, or you could just use the motherboard in another xda. The unit does not charge for some reason, possibly the fuse which is a simple enough fix.
2) A 32mb XDA with the above rom installed. The screen is intact, however will most of the time it will only display lines, you can get a screen sometimes but this is very rare. It must be possible to fix this, but its way beyond me. Again the motherboard has been tested in my other xda.
Please email me at [email protected] if you would like to make me a serious offer.
Thanks
Martin.
So how do the rest of us get it. Do we have to send our XDA's back to O2?
So did you uploaded the ROM yet? can you provide us a link? thanks
::adit
Don't forget the main question. Does this version incluudes the wmodem application????
Already wrote him a PM for getting this ROM. My Kitchen is waiting for it....
:wink:
Stefan
:twisted: :twisted: Yeahhh gr8 I hope this one would be perfect I want to try it
news?
any news,
wmodem, build number ...
i´m ready to give it a try
joking ?
is topic joking ? o never heard before about 4.01.12 rom best regard
i WAS starting to think that this guy is telling the truth but no sign so far... damn, all that excitement for nothing
::adit
unfortunately
after one day of hopes that´s it.
at least someone with inside o2 info can confirm/infirm the existence of an O2 WM2003 either in beta fase?
Official O2 PPC 2003 4.01.12 ENG ROM
Official O2 PPC 2003 4.01.12 ENG ROM

Hope this is what your all after, let me know.
thanks for the file, sorry bout my doubt but it took so long.. so anyone tried this yet? does it work with asian XDA1? im still downloading it. it will take some time for me coz im using dial up thanks.
::adit
great !
it IS real :shock: thanks Martin
how on earth we only found out right now ?
any insiders ? is it gonna be official or it's an old tryout from O2 ?
It HAS wmodem but I connect through Irda (i have no serial on my notebook).
Can someone try and confirm that it works on Irda on Windows XP
Steps for using wmodem:
1. install ircomm2k from http://www.ircomm2k.de/english
2. add a new modem (manual selection Standard 32600 bps) on the new com installed by ircomm2k
3. add to AT commands AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","apn","",0,0
4. create a new DUN with the number at *99#
5. use if there is any username/password
Mine works fine but I cannot connect. It does communicate and ends on "verifying password" step.
Any help ?
thats great!! thanks very much martin,what about the auto config? does it show any asian provider? such as thailand AIS, DTAC or indonesian indosat, telkomsel, etc? thanks in advance...

Shure not....
Would you as provider support other ones?
Incluuded in Auto Conig should be:
O2-UK
O2-IRL
O2-DE
O2-DE Loop
O2-NL
???Manx???
and again Thx to Martin for sharing and uploading....

Normally this should happen Automaticly, since the CallerID.CAB fiel is int eh startup directory....
But it's a nice trick to get it working...
[edit]
Soory, forgotten to mention, that this ROM is now available in the Kitchen. I also tried to get the Autoconfigration working. Cooking went fine, but i didn't have the possibility to test it.
So fell free and test this ROM with Autoconfiguration......
Check http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org
[/edit]
Stefan
great !!!!
i test it in this afternoon it have a bug in this rom .... may be A30.09 much more better thx for kindly
martinbickley
ps. i check in rom update O2. it have 3.17.03 only where is 4.01.12 come from ? ....
Whats wrong?
Hi, i just installed the ROM and now it works perfectly well, caller ID installs automatically at the startup when the welcome screen appear after the upgrade? XDAMAN, what was the problem? i am using DTAC provider (okay, theres no autoconfig so i had to set up everything manually) everything works perfectly well? i feel its a lot more faster than other ROMs i tried (Siemens ROM, T-Mobile, betas, etc) the best ROM i've ever used!thanks again martin
::adit
too slow and unstable for me
hello adit ,, i live in bangkok too <<< may be we can met and talk about xda ( i have a lot of program for u ...free hehehe )

Downgrading...
Hi Zairyaab...
I've been following this thread, as I too have an original iMATE (XDA II) and have been thinking about upgrading to WM2003SE. I'm still a bit reluctant, as I've read throughout the forums that there are still "bugs" regardless of which version you use.
Since you seem to be in the know, and are willing to help... I have a question. If I upgrade to Wm2003SE as you suggest above, and find I am not happy, is there a clean and easy way to DOWNGRADE back to the original iMATE ROM? I suppose I would just reinstall the 1.72.00WWE ROM from clubimate (but would that work from a WM2003SE ROM?).
Thanks in advance.
-Kevin.
hey mate......
u can surely come back to original rom.....but trust me wm2003se is very stable and you wont feel like coming back to ur original rom.....milllllions of thanks to dcs mamaich.....and may other gurus and geeeks who have made it possible for us to use this rom ..... and if you think wm2003se is not gonna suit you then you need to check this out......

if u need any help on upgrading downgrading...post a msg on this thread....or pm me......

Re help

Am already working on it. But i have a question.At the site, it asked ' Select which ROM Version do you want to cook?' am i choosing ppc 2002?
Sorry for the bother, cos am quite new in this and can easilly pull it through.
Can i have a step to step instruction on how to go about it? I will really appreciate it. And also, is the upgrading not dangerous?
Am still here though and waiting.
Tanx a bunch

How do I make it entirely English?

WM6 seems to work on my mda compact but i can't find my camera utility or my mp3 player anywhere.
My camera button doesn't work anymore, please help!!!

This ROM is the taxist ROM!
WWE_203TX
TX = Taxist <- it's a russian guy that mods ROMs
v2,03 = modded version <- Official ROMs ended on version v1,13
This rom LOOKS like WM6 but IT IS a wm2003se with changed icons.
Please, get this once for all:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It does NOT exist ANY(*) Windows Mobile 2005 or 2006 for the magician!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Read the forum threads a little bit more before posting threads like this.
(*) Offical; beta state; WM2006 core modded; etc
