We've all worked hard, but it's done. The
XDA Special Edition ROM v1.0
is ready for release. Click here for details.
Way good job.
Ill give it a try we I get a linux machine runnig.
any change of getting som kind of windows version ( I no this will be heard because you use dd for file manpilation).
Just keep up the good work and I let you know if I have got a rom in my machine 8)
Download it here !!!
Only yesterday I wondered what I could do for this community, and today's already my chance !
I followed the instructions for mkrom, got Othman's Qtek ROM to modify, and got a working ROM image, pretty much first try. It is way cool, and does everything promised on the page. I created a self-extracting archive that runs adaptROM and then the "Programme A" thing, so people don't need to build it anymore, they can just download it and flash their device..
http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v10.exe
(The machine I'm on can handle quite a bit of traffic, but there may be other reasons why mirrors wouldn't be bad...)
Should work on all existing PW10A and PW10B devices. Please note that installing on U.S. 900/1900 phones (PW10B) carries a warning on the page.
Happy downloading. It's cool. Back up your stuff and install the new ROM today!

Thnx Jeff Summers.
Your installer worked like a charm.
I will also create my onw rom with my onw boot sreen :wink:
Thanks XDA-developers and thanks Jeff

.Net Compact Framework
Hi !
is there a way to include the .NET Compact Framework in your ROM?
How about SMS_Name, sms-fix?
Thanks for your work
auto-config is not working
Hi !
I used Jeffs exe to install the ROM.
Everything worked fine, except the Auto-Configuration.
It pops up every time i boot my device and does nothing. I answered the questions and choose reboot, after the reboot there are no settings in connections and next time i connect to the gsm-net it asks again to do autoconfig.
I used the ROM on my german XDA32 with O2 (not loop).
Radio-Version: 4.16
am i doing something wrong or is it a bug?... Jabba

You should be able to just select 'Do not ask me this again' once, and that should be the end of it. I decided to leave the option to the user because I figured some people like being asked every time they switch SIMs. But maybe I should take it out on future versions.
Let me know if you can't make it go away by selecting the checkbox, and I'll look into it further.

(The machine I'm on can handle quite a bit of traffic, but there may be other reasons why mirrors wouldn't be bad...)
I just posted it on use-net in alt.binaries.warez.pocketpc
Look for XDA developers romupdate.
One possible way to make the ROM image on Windows is to use CygWin. It's worked for me.
yes, the autoconfig goes away when i check the box, BUT i tried 3 times to let autoconfig do its job -> nothing. no configuration was done. finally i checked the box to make it go away. now i have to config the connections manually.
autoconfig does not work, it just says "you need to reboot" immediatly. and after reboot nothing changed. no config done. like i already said, i tried it 3 times.
am i the only one who is experiencing this?
a few questions:
- is the autoconfig dropdown empty? or does it contain a list of providers?
- dou you have an sd card? and a reader connected to your pc?
if so, can you write a rom image to sd, and save it to your pc disk
using xdarit,
and also use xdarit to write the NK.nbf (that can be found
in C:\Program Files\RUU\English) to sd, and then read
that sd image back to your pc, ( this is to convert the .nbf to .nb1
if you know how to use unix tools, you can also do this by
typing 'dd if=nk.nbf of=nk.nb1 bs=32 skip=8193' )
then compare those 2 .nb1 files.
they should be equal. if they are not, you should try to flash
your xda again, using the sd card you have now with the saved .nbf on it
that is more reliable than flashing using programme-A.
Thanks xda-developers AND the Jeff Summers who complied his ROM for US. Three PLAIN question
1) I'm happy that the 02 boot screen is gone but can I wool rather a non boot screen can your standard one be removed manually if not can you make this optional in the next version
2) Would I be able to reload the original ROM on the XDA i have to return to manufacture for servicing i two weeks
3)A minor Issue I i notice a square while mark in the top right corner appears sometimes is that know problem in the ROM.
Itsme: sorry i dont have a sd-card reader/writer. The dropdown menu is not empty, everything is there. i selected o2-germany.
btw: is the sms-fix in the rom too? sms-name i mean. is there any chance that there will be a german rom too?`
And there is one freeware tool written from a user at a german xda forum. it's an sms-char-counter (which is missing in PPC2002) it would be a good idea to add this too the ROM?!
the other guest: use the wallaby boot loader (reset with power-button pressed) to write your ce+boot to a sd card (this card will be overwritten completely!!) see the guide on this website.
the square mark is a very useful tool called 'switch', tap it, you will see.
you can download a rom that is official for your xda here
( that is assuming you are the person called 'guest' with the german o2 rom )
if you take a look at mkrom you will see how to modify the Special Edition rom to your needs.
Itsme: do i just have to change the dir-structure ? ie. program files -> programme etc???
This 'Guest' stuff is beginning to get to me. At least provide some identification, please. 'Guest', are you sure Autoconfig does 'nothing', it may be that it has created the GPRS settings, which i all it should do, we removed all the other crap it used to do. If it created no GPRS settings for you, I'll check the 'Germany - O2' file to see what's up...
Itsme: sorry i logged in with my last reply but forget to enter the username at the top of the reply (now i know there was some login error, otherwise the username-textfield will not be displayed).... i hope that i'm "in" now
in settings/connections there are no settings set for internet and work! "new" is the only item to select.
i tried that auto-config again, but still no settings...
sorry again for the "guest" stuff.

XDA developer Itsme
I was the Guest who mention the boot up after reset. I will be returning my XDA for services soon. Can i reload the original back with no problems? I had XDA 02 UK Radio Unit v31413 AND Radio Stack v4.
i notice the XDA developer SP Edition ROM Version date is 03/10/03 are we head of time??????
the boot up after soft rest (XDA developer bootup') i look at the instruction i have very little knowledge to follow the instruction (i'm a newbie). Any simple suggestion
it should be no problem to change your rom to a previous version
you can download the official o2 rom here
your radio stack was not modified by the special edition rom, so no need
to change it.
the date, mmm. not sure which of the digits is the month day or year.
I don't think I understand what you are trying to ask with your other question. ( or even if it is a question )
Hi developers,
first of all I'd like thank you for your excellent work. I used a couple of roms and really appreciate your efforts.
This time I updated my device from WM 2003 (4.00.01 ENG, Radio 4.21.00) to the T-Mobile release whitout radio update, posted in this forum by Aurora13. After a backup of my data and removement of the T-Mob. stuff like suggested by Aurora13, I noticed that my backlight was turned of and I couldn't turn it on again either.
So I tried to downgrade again, because working without backlight really is a pain, by I'm unable to.
Not depending on which ROM I use, I get the message: "error getting device data" (CMD.exe) & "execute remote communication program error" (prog. a 1.09).
My active sync (WinXP) seems to work.
The device & telefone seems to work either.
How can I fix this?? Any suggestions?? I'd really like to go back to 4.00.01!!!!
Thanks in advance!!!
If you restored your applications from a former version of WME 2003 you will see this happen. I don't know what registry setting or file is getting changed but after a restore from say 4.00.01 or 4.00.05 backups (I use SPrite Backup) you will see this phenomenum occur after a soft reboot no backlight. Do a hard reset and resinstall your applications and all will work fine.
error in CMD.exe window after T-Mob 4.00.10 update
Hi developers,
I have similar problem, I’d like to go back to 4.00.005 too.
Using the ROMkitchen_4.00.05.exe, in the CMD.exe window I got an error message:
“error: GetConnectionType – An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
error getting connection”
My activesync seems to be working properly.
What has gone wrong? How do I fix it?
Thanks in advance
Experienced the same with the backlight.
So NEVER do a restore from a different ROM!!! Alway do a clean install.

It's not only the backlight, the problem is the "execute remote communication program error" which makes flashing the ROM impossible .
I used do update with *.exe-files which won't work out anymore :evil: . Can anybody post a step by step guide how to fix it and go back to the ROM before :? (Which would obviously be the best)?
Or does anybody know which registry key has to be changed to fix the backlight :idea: ?
Thanx!!!
Does it work OK after a hard reset?
Because you shouldn't have to go back, do a hard reset and do a clean install of your apps and 4.00.10 should work ok.
Thanx Aurora13,
it now seems to work !
I'm on 4.00.10 again with all the T-Mob. stuff and backlight working.
In my case, going back to 4.00.01 and restoring my backup seems to be less time consuming than doing a clean install (would loose adress book & calendar).
I actually can't spot a lot of differences besides the version numbers in the OS anyway :? .
:evil: But trying to do that, I still have the same problem with the cmd.exe:
“error: GetConnectionType – An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

Anybody any suggestions how to get rid of this OS-version without SD-card-writer?? I'd really like to have evrything working again like it was before!
Thanks a lot in advance!!!
Most importantly: do not upgrade to a T-Mobile ROM 900/1900 MHz (American) ROM on anything but a 900/1900 MHz phone. The T-Mobile ROMS contain the RSU phone upgrade, which will run as soon as WinCE boots. You will ruin your 900/1800 (European/Asian) phone if you do.

Could that be the problem that I'm unable to fllash my ROM again?

i suspect it means that your xda will only work in US
untill you find some way to flash it back to the 900/1800 gsm mode

if it can be flashed using the sd flash card and you have an sd flash card reader / writer for the pc it would be possible

T-Mobile update 4.00.10 sucks!!!
@reiggue
4.00.10 does not suck.
The problems you are experiencing are not real problems but a lack of knowledge on your side.
If you asked how to solve them I can help you to solve EACH one. But you are not asking, but only being negative.
As with all ROMs if you don't know what you are doing, then don't do it.
If you read this forum more securely, you already got answers of a few of your problems:
- How to go back to an old ROM
- Removing the TMobile stuff
- Backup of previous version does not work
All the answers of the above and how to solve them you can find in this forum.
So use the knowledge of the people of this forum and don't be so negative.
I want to second Aurrora13's statement. Over and over in this forum it is stated that you should not attempt these ROM updates if you don't have an SD reader. Sometimes it is the only way to save your bacon (XDA)! If a user insists on ignoring sound advice, then he shouldn't complain about suffering the consequences.
In general, the more experienced users on this forum provide good advise and are more than willing to ehlp others. Personally, I think this forum is awsome!
We all know we are taking risks but being techno-junkies we jump in there trying to improve our XDA's and learn more about its capabilities and ways to improve it. I hope when the next majore WME phone becomes available (I'm hoping for the TI WANDA, though XDA II will probably be first) that we are able to do the same with it.
4.00.10 user wanted to revert back to old rom
You need to use SD card reader to revert back to older rom, Activesync doesn't work properly in windows, even you had sync with your windows.
I had the same problem before, but I found out this 4.00.10rom is more stable then others WM2003roms.
Please follow Aurora13 instruction,removing a few item under program/AIM -/Tmobile and if you have radio signal problem You might want to try to bootloader setting 900/1800 or 900/1900, it works for me.
This is my second time flashing v4.00.10 and I'm using XDA asian unit.
Good Luck.
:lol:
@Aurora13
You might be right in me being negative.
As I read through the forum, there are other people experiencing the same problems.
I think that people should be warned to use the 4.00.10 version instead of hyping it, because, you might agree on that, you loose the ability to go back to an old ROM via activesync, which is the most convenient procedure so far.
I didn't know that I lose this ability, especiallly after performing 4 successfull ROM-updates so far with ROM from this site. That in fact frustrated me.
I agree that the information provided in this forum should help restoring the old ROM.
To close this message, I'd like to thank everybody in this forum who contributes to help fools like me, obviously not knowing what they're doing! This forum is great and I don't want anybody to get the impression I'm blaming anybody else for my faults.
Thanx!
imho then buying a SD reader is a pretty good idea no matter what
they come in versions which read 6 or 7 different flash types so one can also read ones digi cams card if it's a different type
and they are only about 50$ or EUro or something like that
i'm sure getting 2->3 flash readers one of these days
@reiggue
Yep this forum rules big time.
If you check the Sticky thread:
http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1624
There is already enough warnings for the 'beginner', that's why I didn't warn it can be dangerous.
But enough said, good luck with your downgrade and/or if you will stay with the 4.00.10 ROM I'll be glad to help solving some problems you may experience or talk you through the downgrade.
I appreciate your assistance, Aurora13!
Thanx! :lol:
For those of you in the UK - I bought an SD card reader (only reads SD and MMC cards) from PC World for only £6.99 - I've used it to change ROMS back and fourth several times on four XDA's without incident so far - I bought it after an activesync update (genuine O2 upgrade) went horribly wrong and trashed my XDA. I think that everyone "playing" with these ROMs should get one.
Hello all.
i have been searching the forum for the solution of this problem, some guys suggested solutions that involve a file that is no longer available, upgrade.zip which is aparently a radio upgrade(or downgrade) made for the SD card (a startup.exe in a startup directory).
Well, having said that, i had to solve this problem last night, and here it goes.
after trying original ROM upgrades, all versions, 3.14,3.17,3.18~4.
nothing worked.
finally, i grabbed a copy of xda-developers's 1.1 ROM
and guess what!!!
the phone started up, gave me the screen allignment and the whole menu!
sure enough, ran file commander(that version did not have file manager) copied the RSU files over to the windows directory, and the exe file to the windows\startup and rebooted the phone.
it stopped at 1% again... NOW REMEMBER, i had an EMPTY BATTERY...
the 1% ERROR is a battery issue, that turnes into this issue when the modem upgrade FAILS.
so here is what i did. and you be the judge.
i ran active sync from the phone, and it did connect(while the upgrade program is still running) and left the room/
in 10 minutes i came back and the upgrade was completed, so here is what i think
i think that the RSU will still run if it was in the background!!! even with an empty battery(connected to the charger ofcourse.
i did not have much time to do anymore testing, but i am sure that someone with the same problem will make the time. the key from my experience is that the proccess will complete if it is in the background.
there u have it.
good luck.
i forgot to add that the upgrade i used was taken from yorch's page and it was the latest Tmobile, i had to downgrade later to an older version that i have to solve the network issue, but it was done(the downgrade) like a charm, i had a full battery then.
here is the Tmobile RSU link v6.24
http://www.yorch.net/downloads/ROMS/TMOradiostackupgradeR624 .zip
a 1.26 MB file.
Hi!
Now I'm taking a try (unfortantely I've found only the special edition rom 1.2).
No success with SE ROM 1.2. Where could I download 1.1 from? Found it nowhere.
One more thing: maybe the version of active sync counts? Mine was 3.8.

Hello to all, and mr stefan,
I upgrade my qtek 1010 with SFX56 windws 2003, it also upgraded my RSU, which is not working in Middle East. Kindly advise me how to downgrade or upgrade with other RSU. Thanks
your problem is in the network selection, search the forum for the proggy that changes it from 1900 to 900 and you should be OK.
i hate telling anyone to search i know how hard it is, but i do not have a clue where the proggy is, meanwhile, if i run across it, i will point it out,
if not, go to the bootloader, select GSM and change it from there, you will loose all data so backup first,
Good Luck.
search for "bandwith switch tool"..... good luck.
here it is on wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BandSwitchTool
tell us if this fixes your problem.
if not, you will find links to radio upgrade on

well, again, let us know what happens.
hi all
I just picked up a XDA from a guy who screwed up the radio stack upgrade (it cosy me @$80 USD ) and im now on a mission to fix it...
using your advice I used the XDA developers rom 1.1, this got the phone to start up with the working today screen and menus etc....
I install/copy over the new RSU upgrade files over and reboot
but here is where i get a bit stuck...
I cant get into active sync fast enough before I get the 1% RSU upgrade error, so the upgrade wont run in the background, it just sits there....
how do you get into active sync before the error comes up?
cheers

I want to upgrade my 02 rom to the imate rom
which imate rom supports the aku2 patch, as o2 dont know when there going to release this support.
this is also my question, is it possible to use Imate Jasjar ROM for O2 Exec, and where i can get it , then i can use O2 software on new ROM ? Thank you.
YES!
I upgraded my O2 Exec to the new i-mate ROM and man.. it's like owning a completely different machine.
plenty of memory left ( i guess memory leaks were mostly fixed)
dazzling speed.
machine doesn't get stuck several times a day.
I am happy.
You have the official ROM. Search through it, I don't know in which thread I saw it, but the filename is: JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.zip
You should be able find it here using the search button.
Then you need to use a tool called maupgradeut_noid_645.exe
Also available here. It will allow to install the JASJAR ROM on O2 Exec. But I think your warrenty will voice.. unless you revert back to the O2 ROM which is downloadable from my-xda.com
MOBILER
Sorry again, i have this question, my XDA Exec is unlocked by deffault, after updated with the Imate ROM, is my Exec still unlocked ? Thank you.
yes your exec will still be unlocked. I have an exec with a Orange simcard and the latest imate rom. No problems.
hi,i have a xda exec from 02,i want to upgrade to a imate rom.where i can download this rom?,how can i read a manual to upgrade this rom?
thanks

go to ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/
Get the file JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.zip. About 64Mb. Unzip the file twice & you will get the readme.doc file for the instruction.
Any idea where i can find maupgradeut_noid_645.exe? Tried search and tried the ftp, no luck.

I think I used this version when I upgraded O2 XDA Exec to JASJAR rom. Didn't run into any problems
Thanks for your replies and PMs, i-Mate rom is now installed
Also got fed up with waiting for O2 update and tonight loaded the imate rom and push email is working nicely . I will try and post some instructions tomorrow if I get chance.
what should be the final specs
mine are ROM 1.13.82 WWE
rom date 11/30/05
radio 1.09.00
protocol 42.42.P8
Ext ROM 1.13.188 WWE
ihave downloaded imate JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship should I update with this my O2 EXEC
Please advise
Here is the process as promised. There isnt too much too it so hopefully you will be able to understand my ramblings.
You need the Imate JASJAR rom file which I downloaded from
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Universal/Shipped_Complete_Updates/
The file that you need is JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.zip.
First thing to do is to extract the files in the exe. There are two ways you could do this.
You can do this by running the exe file this will extract the files into a temporary directory in your profile.. for example c:\documents and settings\username\Local Settings\Temp, look for a very recently created directory in there, don’t ok the error message that you get when you run the exe as it will delete the temporary files. Just copy the files out of the temp directory somewhere else.
OR
You can use winrar to extract the files from the exe. Extract all the files into a single flat directory. Remove all directory structures so that you are left with just one directory containing all the files. (didnt try this way but I presume it will work)
Then download this file
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Tools/MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip
Extract the .exe in there to the same directory containing all your other files.
Then you need to make a small change to one of the text files. Look in the directory for
RUU.conf
Open it in notepad and add this line
[CHECKCEID_TYPE]=1
then save it
That’s about it…..
Usual wavers at this point.. upgrading flash may lead to dead device.. do so at your own risk… invalidate warranty…etc etc
Once you have plucked up the courage connect your device up to Active sync and run the exe file that was contained in the MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip file that you downloaded.
It seemed to take around 30 mins for the whole update process.
Im just going through adding my applications again and setting up the Vodafone GPRS configuration but so far seems fine and push email works nice and fast so I am pleased I have made the change.
Hi jwarbutron,
Thanks for the walkthrough, Im following your instructions and have now started the upgrade.
I got past the screen where it tells me my current version numbers and what the new versions will be. I said OK, go for it, and now its displaying the 'Checking the information on your device .. please wait ..' screen, I presume I just wait for 30 mins or so and the upgrade is complete? There isn't a progress bar or another screen Im supposed to see?
Cheers
Nas
hanks jwarbutron,
Your procedure works like a charm Thanks once again . Pl let me know how to get original #D phone pad interface
Unfortunately it didn't work for me, I left my phone plugged in for about 4 hours, it still just displayed the checking page, and now my phone wont start. Switching it on, I see some text in portrait mode saying usb at the top, and v1.00 at the bottom.
I'll dig around this forum to see if I can find a solution.
Nas
Third attempt looks to be good though! Got the progress bar, upgrading now... :lol:
Nas
Just updated last night, and good grief the imate ROM is so much better.
Its much smoother, quicker and generally a much more pleasant experience.
Very much recommended to anyone who who has the Exec.
Cheers
Rich
Well, my upgrade completed, but I still get the portrait page with USB at the top and v1.00 at the bottom. The upgrade said it had completed successfully, is there a step I have missed?
Cheers
Nas
Im starting the upgrade again to see if I missed anything, I have the screen with the progress bar, so I know its doing *something*.
While its going, any ideas what I might of missed?
Thanks
Nas
All,
I've exchanged many emails with the imei.check.co.uk team and also met personally one of these guys in order to be able to upload a new ROM to my O2 Orbit. I had excatly the same problem as many of you with ending the uploding process with "model invalid id" error message.
Now I'm happy to say we do have a solution.
So if you want to change your ROM (any), simply follow these instructions:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Of course you can publish the instructions...
BUT PLEASE put a BIG WARNING! It will crash the phone in case you don't have a valid key file to perfom the last step: RUN THE UNLOCKER AGAIN AFTER THE ROM MODEL SWITCH TO RECOVER FROM THE DATA CRASHED MESSAGE!
Hello,
we found a way to flash ANY artemis roms in ANY Artemis look alike device (HTC Hero too).
Tools you need:
-hexworkshop from http://www.bpsoft.com/downloads/
-Any rom
-winzip or winrar
-http://www.imei-check.co.uk/C3v1Unlock.zip
a valid UNL file for your phone.
install hexworkshop and winzip/winrar
Take any rom for example: ART_HTCWWE_11240501_026790_WWE_Ship.exe
in explorer, right click on it and select "Extract files..."
Now it will unpack all the files
You'll have now "HTCWWE_shipsigned.nbh"
right click on it and Click "Hex Edit with Hex Workshop"
You'll see on the 5th row ARTE10000

YESS, I have changed my GER rom to new HTC official ENG Rom, you are the best!!!!!! It's very simple to do...
yuppyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
the next step is.... backup the ROM I'm search ITA ROM form my HTC 3300.
see you later...
Good Discovery,
But the key is: We will have to pay 38USD for the "Proper UNL file" which is unique for every IMEI. Is it right?
Yeah, Thanks mr. Martin who is from Imei-Check Team. But we are still looking for a free solution.
Regards!
Tamagochi,
yes, first you have to go to imei.check and pay for the unlocking program and the unique .unl file.
P.S. I'm not a member of imei.check, just had the same problem as many Orbit users here...you can find my previous thread.
Works great on all versions.
Great support from the boys from emeicheck
Question about directions
Okay, I'm gonna try this. Do I still follow these directions exactly even though I have already unlocked the CID?
Also, when you see the line "ARTE1000" do you actually replace the "1000" part with the little stars? Sorry, I'm really new at this!
Thanks!
Yes you must do it all.
HELP
Everything went smoothly but when the device rebooted, it want me to "align the screen". It doesn't seem to be able to detect the stylus touching the screen! Can't get past that screen! Anybody know what I could have done wrong?
REF: HELP (Never Mind...)
I DID IT, I DID IT, I DID IT!!!! Just had to wait a minute or two and then everything seemed to work fine!!! TomTom is there, my WiFi is working! Thank you MAROSV and FRANCOBANCO!!!! If I can do it, ANYBODY can!! THANK YOU!!!
Hi KleineMaus,
I am wondering which ROM u used on your orbit that includes tomtom?
Or do you just mean you still had tomtom stored on your menory card?
Cheers, Towelie.

hi, I've just used the last HTC offical Rom (see xda ftp site..) that include TomTOm + 1 city map
byebye
Hi, I used the ROM on the Wiki page Dopod|English|DOPOD001|ARTE1****|1.25.707.2 ??/??/0?|1.25.707.104|1.25.0000|02.69.90|4.1.13.30| [Download|ftp://xda:[email protected]/Artemis/Shipped_Complete_Updates/ARTE_DOPODAU_12570702_026990_WWE_SHIP.exe]|[Thread|http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286639]
It worked like a charm. The only problem I had was that when the Orbit re-booted after the process finished, it didn't seem to detect the sylus. I just waited five minutes and then it worked. Guess it was still getting settled in with it's new ROM. I don't know where I had the TomTom before I started the update, but it installed the German maps which were there before but as a bonus it gave me a English speaking voice which I didn't have before. It came with a German voice and I couldn't change because I had not yet upgraded the memory and had no room. So, my update was super! The only little thing is that once I changed the screen color back to blue instead of that terrible green, I couldn't get the phone part (dialing pad) to change to blue. No biggie, as now I can use my Orbit in English. I can live with the green phone pad! Maybe somebody will tweak that one. Hope this wasn't more info than you needed....
KleinMouse,
the dialing pad can be easily changed as well....just do a little seach on this Artemis forum and you will find many links pointing to skins available for WM5 phone edition.
O2 Orbit ROM upgrade info
Hi,
my o2 orbit has ROM 1.25.206.2 WWE. I wanted to know if this is the latest ROM available for my phone. I got my phone 10 days ago and i gotta do a soft reset on it every day. I had the same kind of problems with o2 Atom. But most of the issues were corrected once the ROM was upgraded. Please someone update me on my situation. Thanks
I tried the steps but i'm always getting the ERROR[300] : INVALID UPDATE TOOL - This Update Utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please get newer Update Utility
Anyone who can help me here? I already tried different ROMs but always the same message
Did you unlock with imei-check? What is your model ID ARTExxxx ?
Yes i did. My Model ID is ARTE100
Hmm, but the steps described above are necessary to follow only if your model is Orbit (ARTE200). If you have HTC P3300 or Dopod p800W or Artemis or MDA compact 3, then you don't need to do it this way. The only thing you need to do is to unlock with Imei-check. If it still doesnt work, contact their help desk.
Ok i see, very strange indeed. I did the unlock with the stuff from Imei-check but i still get the message ERROR [244] : INVALID MODEL ID . If i try the steps from your post #1 , i get the described error obove. I'll try to contact the guys from imei-check, i hope they can help me
Hi Kleine Maus, I read with great joy that you succeeded and I would like to feel the same way.... Could you kindly reply to me and give me some detailed instructions to follow? Hopefully this will work for my HTC P3300....Thanks in advance.... I really appreciate it. Best SiperX
