Pocket PC phone edition device made by HTC from Taiwan. Also known as O2 XDA, T-Mobile MDA, Siemens SX-56, Qtek 1010 and a few lesser known brand names.
PocketPC, 320x240 pixel screen at 4096 colors. StrongARM processor at 200 MHz, 32 or 64 MB RAM, 32 MB ROM
The model number (printed on the back) is PW10, followed by an 'A' for the 900/1800 version, and a 'B' for the 900/1900 version. Then there's a digit which is usually '1', except for the T-Mobile MDA.
Currently no longer in production, this phone has been superseded by the Himalaya.

Hi!
Just a short little guess:
4.00.05 is identical with 4.00.10 despite the T-Mobile branding AND
4.00.11 is identical with 4.00.16 despite the T-Mobile branding.
So maybe 4.00.05 and 4.00.11 are the OEM versions from HTC and everytime T-Mobile is just adding their 5 to the version number.
So is 11 really identical to 16 without the T-Mobile programs?
Just a thought.. maybe even nothing new.

The first Orange supplied M1000 devices were released at the sale in Denmark by Elgiganten, an electronics superstore, on December 27.
The price for the Orange sim-locked M1000 was 4299 DKR - or about 400 GBP. The Orange contract has a minimum period of 6 months with a DKR 117/GBP 11 monthly charge.
I managed to switch to my Telmore SIM card, giving me a 10 DKR / 1 GBP per MB GPRS plan with no monthly charge.
Orange supplies an extra battery (total of 2) , headset, leather case, cradle and extra stylus in the box.
I am very impressed by the device, due to the 128 MB of memory, I can now load and run Tom Tom 2 with the south Scandinavia map with no problems. I no longer have to switch between Denmark, Norway and Sweden.
ROM Version is 1.52.00WWE
Rom Date 10/23/03
Radion Version 1.05.16
Protocol version 1337.16
So far I have not found any problems apart from the missing radio buttons after running TomTom. The device runs perfectly with my Jabra 200 headset (late version, Nokia 3650 compatible), wakes up when incomming SMS'es are received etc.
While I do not see any reason to upgrade firmware at this pint, I would like to know if there are any improvements in more recent versions.
As I live in Denmark, I am also curious if the original keyboard for this device has Scandinavian characters. I have seen a infrared keyboard that does provide these (for us) important characters.

Hey
I have too purchased the Danish Orange M1000 (Qtek 2020 etc). I am very interested in hearing about the 1.60 ROM upgrade. Will it work on this device? And where can I get the danish keyboard layout?
Thx

....and by the way... Michael, have you enabled GPRS on Telmore? In that case, how???
GPRS on Telmore
First, naturally, I enabled GPRS using the Telmore website.
Secondly, I used the following settings
Select a name for the connection: TDC GPRS (anything goes)
Select a modem: Celluar Line (GPRS)
Access point name: internet
User name, password, Domain*: all blank
Advanced: No changes/default
That's it.
It works nice and fast. Connects in a few seconds and stays on until a reset or battery removal.
I am using the Spb GPRS Monitor to track utilizaiton.
Regards
Michael
you can as you most likely know get to the special letters on the onscreen keyboard by pressing å and e umloud key
as for a ir or cable external keyboard i doubt you'll find it if you think about the fact that MS havent nationalized windows CE pocketpc to danish most likely because of the too small market
so a external keyboard supporting a language which pocketpc kinda dont would be an even smaller market
i stand corrected

this product works for xda1 so it should work for xda2 aswell i suppose

There should be no problems in upgrading your M1000 phones to later ROM revisions, as long as it's done right, and the operator codes are changed in the ROM image as needed.
However, you should know that Orange in Denmark do not support any other version than their own M1000, as the owner of an Qtek 2020, i can only too well remember the hassle of getting the correct MMS settings ;o)
That said, if you need any assistance in getting your Danish M1000 working with a later ROM, and danish keyboard, just let me know.
Currently running ROM 2.06.00WWE on a Qtek 2020.

Hi Lars,
I would lvery much like to have some information about upgrading the software in a SPV m1000. I would like to be able to use another software/OS pack than the Orange supplied one. Can you help we with this?

I noticed that the ROM version on my new Qtek 1020 was 4.02.04 which seems to be higher than anything else on the xda-developers FTP so it could perhaps be useful to those wanting to update it on their Wallaby variants? I will say use at your own risk though because I haven't tested it on any other Wallaby device so I don't know how it'll work. I've zipped it up and put it on the FTP site in the Uploads/Qtek1020ROM directory, just extract the zip and use XDAtools to flash (I recomend using the SD card flash method rather than a direct USB flash).
Regards,
Neil.
From where did you get this ROM?
It´s really the "newest" ROM on the market. But it doesn´t include the wmodem application... :-(
Thx for Uploading.......
Stefan
Hi Stefan,
This ROM came pre-installed on my Qtek 1020 when I received it from Microdirect (UK seller). It's SIM unlocked by default but my 1020 only sees Vodafone and O2 networks in the UK. I think that might be a radio stack or hardware issue though.
Regards,
Neil.
new rom - kewl, but what RSU do you have?
Neilius - thanks for the ROM. which version of the radio stack was installed on your phone with this ROM? and, finally, do you have the PW10A or PW10B version of the Wallaby?
:twisted:
Here's all the info in my Device Information readout:
ROM version: 4.02.04 ENG
ROM date: 8/24/05
Radio version A.33.02
Protocal version: 1.3.3
Regards,
Neil.
Looking at the profile icons on the left, he's got the PW10B which if you got it in the UK, whoever sold you it is selling American imports!!
That would explain why you can't see Orange or T-Mobile as American phones are 900/1900 instead of 900/1800 in Europe. 900, 1800 and 1900 being the frequencies used. Orange and T-Mobile are on 1800 in UK, O2 and Vodafone on 900.
Yeah this is weird: the software actually says PW10B1 under the Identity tab of Device Information whilst the physical label on the back of the thing tells me its a PW10A1! Here's the product page from the seller:

Rgds,
Neil.
sounds like a bit of creative advertisment to me
all it means is that you won't be able to use orange or t-mobile networks (which will include virgin) in the uk, and if you go to europe, you'll only roam on 900Mhz based networks.
The good news is, if you go to the states, the phone will work perfectly :shock:
EDIT: Looking deeper at the advert, it does say ...
"Note: Only compatible with phones working on 800 or 1900 GSM"
Although I think they mean 900 or 1900!!
Still doesn't explain the sticker on the back!
Thanks for the heads up, this is a little strange but it seems they just got a load in really cheap or something.

Just out of pure curiosity I checked my other half's XDA (she tol me she got it when they first came out!) and it's exactly the same - PW10A1 on the sticker, but PW10B1 according to the software!
Oh you're not the only one to be caught out it would seem!!

The model number shown in the Windows is fixed in the ROM. Therefor the one and only possibility to check if it is a PW10A or PW10B is looking at the rear sticker...
Stefan
Well has anyone tried it? is it any good? and will it stop my xda from deleteing my sd card? :roll:
I'm using it (as it came installed on my Wallaby anyway) and everything seems to work well.
Regards,
Neil.
Will give it a try then and see how it goes cheers for the reply get really anoyed when the sd card gets blanked hope your version fixes that problem. :wink:
Good luck with it! As far as I know it's completely unbranded and seems as 'original' as possible - no Phone company customisations etc. Also, you can't reflash via USB once you install this ROM, only SD card flashing will work. As I say, I've had no problems with it, everything seems to run well, I can use GPRS fine (after setting it up with the correct login information from the Vodafone website). Having MSN Messenger on the devicie is proving to be very useful indeed when I'm out and about!

Neil.

Why is it nobody could even do with the CDMA ver of the BA? We got left out of WM5, and it looks like we'll miss this too.
being originally from the states myself i feel for you, but as you can see the larger majority of Mobile phone companies outside the US use GSM which is why CDMA is mainly a USA thing, ( verizon, some cellular one, cingular, etc etc.)
The driver structure of WM6 is the same like that of WM5. But for WM2003/WM2003SE it is different. And because there is no available WM5 ROM for Harrier, then there is no available CDMA driver for use in WM6 (there could be more differences from Blue Angel). Basicaly until anyone leaks WM5 for Harrier, or driver from different device is used, it is impossible to create a WM6 ROM.
Just spend a week working on my problem, one which i now know other people have had and not solved. So here is everything in one place for general info (and for someone smarter then me to solve).
Product: Atom - Only the ones purchased in Australia (Why are they different??)
Problem: The Atom will work fine on networks all over the world and in the UK, BUT NOT the t-mobile / virgin UK network.
Details: A virgin / t-mobile sim, when placed in the Australian atom will not stay connected and operating correctly when the phone is one, and once you put it to sleep it will loose its GSM network connection altogether (it seems to turn the GSM radio off instead of standby). Once you turn it on again, it will spend 30 seconds finding the network and be stable for 2-5 mins before the GSM radio starts loosing and gaining connection again.
The same SIM will work fine in all other phones i (and others in the forum) have tried. Also the phone works fine with SIMS from Orange / Voda / O2.
Others stories:
All of these seem to be the exact same problem-

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=263721&highlight=virgin
What i have tried:
Updating Roms doesnt fix problem, from latest build wm5, to wm6 and wm6.1 (from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329037).
Also tried re-flashing the original o2 rom from the webpage.
via the wm6 and wm6.1 ROMs i have tried setting the radio to only 800, 900,1800, and 1900 MHz but no change.
Geographic location does not effect anything.
Solution:
switch back to a non T-mobile network.
Other possible solutions / questions:
Why is the Australian Atom different?
Can i flash a radio ROM to correct this, or is it something "on chip"?
Is this problem on the operators side - are they stopping me?
FYI - my (current) config:
Hardware: C1
Radio: r060822N_MN1arc_rs00052
ROM: medkids atom 6.1 final
Processor ARMV4I PXA27x
Anyone able to help, before i go sign up to O2 again
Thanks,
