Latest ROM for Orange M1000

Can someone help me, i have just got a new M1000 after my last one died and i thought i would upgrade the ROM before i start installing everything back onto it.
What is the latest ROM
thanks
Tim

Sorry, I happened to be in a bad mood
a not so official one :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13045&highlight=orange+upgrade
This may not be much help to you at present, but Orange are working on a new ROM, to address the repeated hard resets being experienced by some M1000's. They are into final testing so release should not be far away.
thanks, sorry for not searching.
NeilM - do you know what version(s) of all the roms Orange are releasing? Ie will it even be worth upgrading to it? I have the hacked rom installed and its ok for me now but its a company fon so official rom is best!

Hard reset after sending mms

Hello everybody,
I tried finding it in the forum first but, no luck.
My XDAII sometimes does a hard reset after sending an MMS. I regulary send MMS without any problem.
At first I tought the battery was too low but yesterday it did the hard reset with 32% battery power left.
Anyone?
ROM 1.72.00WWE
Radio 1.17.00
MMS 1.6.0.14
Greetings from Belgium
I've had the same problem before. A right pain in the a*se :evil:
It did it again! Now its really starting to p*ss me off.
With still 48% of battery remaining, the thing did a hard reset all by itself while sending MMS and again this happened during my holiday.
Tomtom and al the rest gone with the wind. Nice.
Anybody with a solution?
Greetings to all
It might be the general bug for xda.. try upgrading to latest ROM or as much as possible always have a backup of all your datas!!
Thanks,
I do have a back-up of all my data but since it happened during my holiday abroad it didn't do me any good because the back up data was sitting on my pc at home and my 1GB card was filled with tomtom maps and music..
I now have the 1.72.00WWE ROM version.
Since it runs very stable (except for the mms bug) I no longer am up to date about the latest versions of ROM's. Which one would you suggest?
Greetings
try downllading 2.06WWE and 2.02WWE.. first.. flash the 2.02WWE and back it up using activesync then reflash with 2.06. after flashing with 2.06 restore the 2.02 backup then youll have a stable 2003SE ROM.. you have to delete some file on the /windows/startup/
and also you can try wm2005
Cheers!

Wowow, I can manage changing languages of ROM and upgrading ROM but if you start talking about deleting files in Windows/Startup I'm in over my head.
I will look for a later version of my ROM and simply try an upgrade.
If been looking for one on this forum but the offer is too big.
It would be great if you would have a link to the latest downloadable english ROM for XDA II
Thanks again for your reply
Thanx guys for the solution......i also had that problem.....

The only version available for download is 1.72.181. Are the others unofficial updates or something?
I've got the MMS problem too and I really want to sort it out. I lost the video of my friend eating jelly with a knife and fork thanks to this :x

02 xda mini rom? updates? keep origonal? change to...i-mate?

finding it hard to get good answers....so in anybodies opinion
the 02 xda mini s
is there any updates from the origonal 1.5.4.2 WWE? if so where can i get em from?
If no updates, maybe the 02 rom isnt the most up-to-date?? and it would be better to change to i-mate? or a q-tec?...if so...which would people recommend? and where could i find them? also...would they effect my being on 02 at all or would evrything stay the same and just the device will work better?!?
what do people think?
jamie
Hello jamie,
I would think that you should at least upgrade to the qtek9100 rom if u worry that u might not turn back to the O2 provided ROM. Or if you want even better performance, you can use the latest imate ROM. But i read in posts that you cannot downgrade as the loki wizard does not work in this rom.
Anyhow, i'm using an xda mini S and using the imate rom though.
Cheers
I was wondering about this as well. I've got an O2 XDA Mini S and it all seems to be working fine (so far). I don't use it for anything spectacular though phone, diary, notebook and I have a few other apps on it. I also run spb pocket plus and spb diary, again with no particular problems.
I know the old adage, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", but are there any benefits from moving to the latest imate ROM, say?
tzehming,
You said you couldn't downgrade. Do you mean that once you put the latest imate ROM on, you can't ever go back to the original O2? Also, what's the deal with LokiWizard - is there something that needs to be done before the ROM can be upgraded?
(apologies for the dumb questions, I'm starting to get to know my way around the device)
Thanks,
John

Hello jko,
Yup u're right about having to use loki to unlock the rom. Search it in the forum and u'll find it. Just type loki.
After unlocking using the software, you can then install any rom for wizards, i.e. O2 mini xda s rom, imate rom or qtek 9100 rom. The one i'm using now is the latest one, which is the imate rom. I heard it cant be downgraded and we'll have to wait for an updated loki software to fix that. But the qtek 9100 rom can be downgraded again. I suggest u try the qtek rom as it makes the pda much faster. The O2 rom is really a turtle when opening the slider and closing it.
Hope this helps
Having read the advice above I'm going to unlock my device and flash it with the qtek 9100 ROM.
Once I've done that, what CAB files do I need to install in order to get O2 MMS and O2 GPRS working again?
Thanks,

Can't answer your question, but just a request to post back your experience once you're done. It would be appreciated.
John
well, you could again search the forum for gprs settings. u may not get the automatic setup anymore, thereby may have to do it manually. search for O2 gprs in the forum. as for mms settings, someone made a cab file, I can't remember which forum , but again, it can be searched. Try O2 mms.
hope this helps
I've got the mini S too...
First thing I did when I got it was to get rid of all the o2 crap on it... couldn't believe how slow it was even in basic mode!
I did the whole hard reset then soft reset when it says "customizing..."
This basically leaves you with a bare o2 wm5 rom without any of the customiztion installed. MMS won't work and either will GPRS.
To get these working you need to install Total Commander on your mini S and browse to the /extended_rom/ directory.
The cab files in this directory are the files installed when it says "customizing..." on a hard reset.
You can then selectively install which ones you would like to install.
There is a brief outline of what each one is on the htc wizard page on the wiki but I've made a better one I'm gonna stick on there.
You also need to input the GPRS settings and MMS settings manually and install a cab from the extended rom that creates the MMS folder in the messaging application.
After you've done all this you'll notice a considerable improvement over the o2 rom with all the crapola installed.
I've also used lokiwizard to unlock it all.
Not tried the qtek rom or the new i-mate one... as I don't use push-email or the like and haven't found any considerable bugs yet I don't need to.
I have found naggaly features which after installing the RegistryWizard, NullKbd and a few others... they seemed to be solved!
I recently updated my O2 mini S 1.5.4.... rom to the new imate one and i must give my approval for upgrading to this rom. Its faster, more stable, is much better on battery life for some reason.

Where can I get this. It does not appear to be in the Rom download area (or is it under a different name?)
its in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=42638&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
Well I successfully upgraded to the new i-mate ROM and it's MUCH faster. There's a lot less lag when sliding the keyboard in & out, and the general responsiveness of the device is considerably better.
I've managed to get GPRS working, and I've installed the MMS cab but I can't send or receive MMS's at the moment - it keeps telling me that it couldn't send the message. So I'm going to post elsewhere in this forum and check that I've got the correct MMS settings.
Overall though, I'd definately recommend upgrading to this ROM. Just remember to use Total Commander to take a backup of the O2 Extended ROM beforehand so that you've got the MMS cab-file available to install at a later date.
Excellent. Thanks for the feedback. I may well give it a go later today.
John

Is this the one from Ghisler.com?
I downloaded this but cannot find any instructions or reference to backing up the Rom. Any idea where I can get the instructions (if there are any).
Code:
browse to the /extended_rom/ directory
I cannot see this in the Total Commander Directory list.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Just got my o2 mini s a couple of days ago and I am loving it soo far!!
However, I already encountered a couple of bugs - the system laggss REALLLI bad, like when the slider is pushed out, even when closing/running certain programs the device hangs. Also, I have seen a couple of times where the "phone" application will not load up. In all these cases I have had to do a soft reset on the device.
I am thinking of upgrading the rom - but this is my first pda, and i know nothing at all about fidgeting with the software. I don't want to mess up such an expensive phone so is it pretty easy to do?
w_2k20a:
I too want to be careful.
I have 2 phones, and my O2 Mini S is slow compared to my MDA Vario.
So I am going to try and run an update to replace the ROM on the O2 with the newer one on the Vario, and also get rid of the O2 add-ins which are what slow it down apparently.
I will try this first because I have read about so many problems with the latest I-mate one, and it is not easy to return to the original ROM if it does give problems (although it is possible it seems tricky) - I may the Imate one later if I need to.
The ROM for the Vario (along with others) is here:
ftp://[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/Tmobile/ - use password xda
Its the UK one.
But first I backed up my Mini ROM. I used awizard to do this. Read this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43399
I think that you will find that using the awizard (get it from this link)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
the backup part is easy. I have done that quite successfully.
Good Luck.

New Orange M5000 (Roms and radio advice needed)

Just got my new M5000 after i accidentally threw the last one across the work car park.
I have just spent the last 45 mins browsing the site to work out what the latest roms and radios are so that i can get my nice virgin phone up to date.
However all i did was get very confused easily done im afraid.
Could someone please give me a difinitive answer on which updates i should run.
thanks in advance
Tim
First question is did you have any problems with your original M5000?
If not, dont fix something that is not broken!
If the original ROM worked ok for you.. stick with it.. I have...
Sensible searching in this forum will find you cures to most issues without upgrading your ROM...
If you still want to upgrade your ROM I'll leave the answer to 'which' & 'how' to others who have tried and tested it...
i had upgraded the radio to 1.6 i think but i see there is a 1.9 now but i cant find the exe to download.
Upgrade the radio, but don't bother with the extended rom.
Just remember to take note of the GPRS connection settings before you hard-reboot.
I had a replacement M5000 a few weeks ago i am now running the latest orange rom with radio 1.09.
It works great however one word of note i had to update the rom 3 times before the calender worked i assume the file must have corrupted during upload.
Can you point me in the right direction for the roms and radio

GPS stopped working after CID unlock

hi
I have a SPV M700 on orange(uk). My gps worked fine without any problems, however today after unlocking the CID so that i could try some roms the gps no longer works. in Tomtom i get messages gps device not found.
I've tried searching in the forums here but cannot find an answer.
Has anyone else had similar problem or know of a solution ?
Thanks
Have you flashed a different radio rom?
What version of the radio do you have now?
Some older radio roms don't support he GPS receiver.
Hi,
I had the same problem. I was given the link below and updated my ROM, this solved the GPS but TomTom kept sticking. I did a bit of digging on this site and found another ROM, which is essentially the original Orange ROM. I have installed this ROM now and am having no problems.

Recommended ROM. (Orange)

Further to my reply....
Your phone memory will be wiped when you install the new ROM. So back up any data/files/settings that you want to keep. Your Memory card won't be affected so save everything to that.

Thanks for the quick replies but im a bit confused here .....the rapidshare link is that for the ROM that makes TomTom stick ?
And from the Recommended ROM's, which one is actually the original Oranger 1's ?
Thanks
I hope this helps.
Managed to get it working.
Used the Mozzer Rom for the link given and then swiftly upgraded to the Big Black WM6 rom.
All working fine as far as i can see.
Need to get out the office to test gps properly, but at least it's picking up the gps device.
Thanks again for the help
I had the same problem, I tried several ROMs without any fix, GPS looks desabled.
Then i had one idea, flash the original ROM from HTC, the one that enables the GPS and Voilá it works, then i loaded the ROM i like and keep working.
Hope it helps,
Information please
You downloaded the original HTC ROM with GPS working, but can you tell us the exact site with this ROM... I look but I did`n get it...it would be very helpfully for us.... Thanks a lot.
The link is given in one of the posts above
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Trinity_Upgrades
the file you want is the last one on the list -
Mozzer** English Orange UK**
hope it helps
