Discovered this Forum while looking for others who were having problems with reliability of the recent O2 ROM upgrade. I've had to hard reset three times!).
Read with huge interest about the ROM Kitchen - and throwing caution to the wind, cooked a ROM in Jeff's Kitchen (a million thanks to him for opening the kitchen).
I have the following questions (which I pray are not stupid)
I find the resulting ROM seems to be stable (so far) but am not clear about:
1. There is a reference on the site to a new ROM version 1.2. I could not find a reference to this in Jeff's Kitchen. The version I 'cooked' was called Version 3.17.03 English (XDA Dev Auto Config).
2. There is an option to select the GSM frequency. Has this turned by XDA into a Tri-Band?
Also, V1.2 is supposed to remove the tedious cut & paste tutorial. My cooked ROM still asked for this. Did I cook the wrong ROM or is 1.2 not yet available in Jeff's Kitchen.
I am one of the non-techies and I hope these questions are not infuriating the techies.
ROM version 1.2 was produced by XDA Developers and is still available from this site. i think i am right in saying that you could install 1.2 over 3.17.03, more information is certainly available on this forum.
The GSM frequency swith is for US/Europe, i believe
version 1.2 does get rid of the tutorial
Hi. Since I don't have access to a Unix machine I use Jeff's Kitchen and that is where I am not sure if the new v1.2 ROM is available. Seems not to be.

nubie here. first post. exiting .
would any of you magician wizz kids out there tell me where I can find the latest magician ship file that is for the O2? I have looked in the ftp's and looked for the ship which basicalled had the highest number and ended in wwe (iam australian) but the QTEC spalsh screen apeared when i flashed my rom with it.
Call me a neat freak but i want my os to match the maker (o2).
put simply - i need the latest 02 operating sys.
this is the current ship file iv put on o2asia_11100_922_11100_ship. (the only reason i found this was because it said 'o2asia' in the file name)
Please direct me if there is anyer virsion.
thanks and i hope iv made sense in what i just said :roll:
The whole ROM consists of 3 parts. The OS, Radio, and Extended ROM. The OS and Radio ROMs are generic and what makes a unit unique is the customizations within the Extended ROM.
If you perform the BigStorage hack, you can install ROM 1.13 which includes Radio 1.12 (there's a stand-alone Radio 1.13 though), then install only the Extended ROM customizations you feel is usefull for you.
I suggest you check-out also the File System Tweak by "nonentity".
Before you proceed, please go through this forum as there's tons of usefull information which includes Registry Tweaks, UI enhancements, recommended software, etc.
Cheers and all the best with your new gadget.

There is already a cab for the wing keyboard fix. (Thanks David) Now we just need a fix for the MMS on Black 6.1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359696
ITJE's Touch-IT Roms are always exceptional. There has been an issue with MMS not working quite right and I don't know if this was solved or not... because I have not personally flashed the one that was released this past weekend... I'm sure it will be solved soon if it isn't solved already.
You can't go wrong with Touch-IT roms.
I've also been testing ASerg's new English rom which is quite good as well.
These are the links to ITJE's latest releases
NEW - Touch-IT v6.1.3 - Clean (updated with UC) (newest release)
Touch-IT wm6.1 19199.1.0.0 - Full (INCREDIBLY FAST & BATTERY EFFICIENT, MMS not working properly)
Touch-IT v4.4 and 4.41 WWE P4350 (11.jan.08) (runs perfectly, which is probably your safest bet)
Hello!
I have seen that there are pretty many roms to choose from. I would like to ask you which ROM you would recommend installing - from the number of posts I can see that bepe's rom is the most popular, but on the other hand there are also many complaints...
Personally, I do not have time to test all the wonderful ROMs you publish, that is why I would like to limit myself to only one developer (and his roms).
Thank you for help!
Best regards,
Theriel
For me it is the Bepe 0.67 - I have an O2 Orbit 2 Pola200 handset
Very stable and has the latest Radio stack and hard spl
Read my signature!
I'm with Jibreil on this one.
I've tried Bepe and swtos ROM's but ASerg runs faster and better for me than the others.
I would choose ASerg if it wasn't for all the stuff I do not use (Total Commander - I have Resco, PIM backup - I use sprite, don't need CVSD, nor voip, nor Advance Configuration Tool - I do it manually, keyboard - I use PCM, I don't need black bars.... etc).
Except for the fact it contains in majority things I would never use it looks very good .
You would not use Aserg, so which one DO YOU USE?
At the moment? None (i.e. original). I am waiting for bepe's new release (as he said some couple of days ago that it is going to be released soon) but well... if there was something better to choose I wouldn't wait then .
Does anyone have the above?
I have stayed with the original HP ROM (6.0 CHT/1.00.04/0.81) until recently, thinking I could update just the radio to 0.89. This was a disaster, as the RUU also updated the eboot to 1.01.04, which does not appear compatible with the 6.0 CHT ROM (keeps asking to restart the PPC after startup). Ended up flashing the 612c with 6.0 WWE/1.01.04/0.88 which works, but Chinese has to be an add-on. Interesting Asset Viewer still says my machine is CHT despite the WWE ROM.
I know there are many 6.1 and 6.5 ROMs that should work, but I would like to stick with an official package if possible, as I am not that tech savvy to be sorting out potential incompatibility that I may run into with beta ROMs.
Scouring the net I could locate a copy of 6.0CHT but not 1.00.04/0.81. As I said earlier, the 6.0CHT would not work with the 1.01.04 already on my 612c.
I did ask HP if they would provide the CHT ROM but the answer was essentially a "no", said in a "polite" way.
Any help will be most appreciated.
radio firmware is separate from rom and i don't think you can flash back to original radio
you can try search around pdaclan i think there are people able to flash back to 0.88 which may be compatible to original CHT, but i think flashing radio is dangerous as any error may brick the radio part
Thanks keyx.
Did a search on pdaclan and found quite a few people wanting to do the same thing and/or having the same problem! Unfortunately no one seems to have the old radio fw or eboot. One suggested to "format the IPAQ file store" - he didn't explain how that could be done though...
Hello ! I need your help with changing rom in my qtek s110. I bought that device two days ago, it have french rom and I want to change it for english one. I want to ask you with what should I start ? It will be the very first rom change, so I don't know if I should do something before running instalation of the new rom, or just start it without checking anything or instaling other programs before the rom ? Thank you for all answers !
If you want a stock rom, get one here (USA or WWE = english):
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows mobile&model=Magician
Extract the *.exe with Winrar and replace the Romupgrade.exe with MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe, execute it, and follow the instructions.
Or get one of Cotullas ROMs (Follow the instruchtions mentioned in the thread). It's a little bit buggy and the camera may not work (depends on version you chose) but it's WM6/6.5
Personally I believe that you should start with Cotulla's WWE 03. That will give you a stable WM6.1 and the instructions are in the post, and also cotulla's homepage.
It also has camera if you needed it for anything. From there you can decide whether you want to goto newer versions or if you are happy with 03.
