hi all,
simple questions i know but i just wanted to make sure of a few things before i go ahead and purchase this!
is the SPV M500 basically the same as the imate jam and Qtek s100 etc??? because i hate all the orange branding crap they put on their phones so will be lookin to put the qtek or imate rom onto the phone asap! will this be possible? i also need to unlock it so i can use a dual sim adapter and use both my o2 and orange sims in it - will the unlock solution for the rest of the magician devices work for the spv m500? has anyone tried?
secondly have people used Tom Tom 5 with this phone? can you report if the devices worked well together and give a stable solution?
thanks and SORRY for the stupid questions!
Tom
svp 500 vs qtec s100
the svp 500 is similar to the qtec s100, but not the s100. The svp 500 is also known as the Qtec S110.
I might be talking under correction here, but I understand the S110 has a new ROM which is not the same as the latest S100.
I don't think there is much difference the 2 phones, other than that your memory is 128 instead of the 64 for std qtec s100s. The outside of the svp has also changed slightly, so has the colour.

This is not true! the Orange M500 is exactly the same as the MDA Compact, Qtek S100, VPA etc. The only thing that is different is the looks. The M500 is somthing less round and is in darkish gray. The Qtek S110 is a Qtek S100 with 128Mb Ram Thats it!
thanks for that rvbcrs,
I did mention the differences which were the same as yours.
For instance, you can not buy the mda compact / vpa compact / ijam or any of the other's stylusses, since they've changed the s110's stylus and it will not fit. I've also been told the the Rom is versioned otherwise, which may be so / not.
It is really the same thing, but what i tried to say is that it is definately improved (only a bit) and like the rom hacks might be different.. those type of things.. but hey, if you've got the same phone you probably know better.
thanks again for your input on this
The vpa compact/orange spv have much better sound quality than jam/mda etc!Also they are only 64mb just different housing!
The vpa compact/orange spv have much better sound quality than jam/mda etc!Also they are only 64mb just different housing!you'll be able to get rid of most of the orange "crap" once you get it.Just go to add/remover programs and remover the orange software that gets rid of the visible things + interface etc
thanks very much for the replies guys!
in general does anyone have any experience of Tom Tom navigator 5 and any of the magician devices? do they work well together? i have heard that tom tom 5 drains the full processor power for the entire time it is running which has led to critical overheating of some devices and the phone functions and for that matter any other functions cant run at the same time due to the work that tom tom 5 puts on the processor!!! is this true?!
thanks,
Tom
i'm running tt5 on my vpa.it works fine.lt does use a great deal of the cpu but you can't use other programs when the navigator is on anyway!no overheatirg problems.tt5 works better than tt3 for me when all patches are applied as l struggled to answer calls on tt3 as it ran so slow but tt5 is better!pm me for more
Hi can anyone tell me Is the M1000 a Himalayan ? or Andes ?
mine was originally on Orange however i upgraded to wm 2005, (wished I hadnt) I am going to go back to a basic 2003se rom will the XDA II be ok ? :?:
WM5 on the M1000 is awesome! Why would you ever want to go back?! :shock:
WM5 on SPV M1000
Tried also WM5 on mij SPV M1000. Looked excellent, but.... had great difficulties in connecting my Rikaline BT GPS. Finally I gave up and went back to WM2003SE again. Hope for future improvements so I can upgrade tp WM5 again.
By the way: many thanks to all the people that invest susch a great deal of their time in making the pograms available for digibetes like ME!
And: Enjoy the holidays, and all the best wishes for 2006!
SPV M1000
SPV M1000 = Himalaya. I've just used the Magic Code and it unlocked it perfectly - though I'm still left with some apparently unremovable Orange files.
maybe shortcuts to them are located in
windows\startup
unwanted Orange Files
Rudegar - you're awesome! I found the unwanted files, as you said, in Widows/Start Menu and Settings. Thanks! Stephen.
I've got an SPV M3000 (I think it is the french version with ORANGE operator of the qtek 9100), and the quality of the camera is "ugly" (could be better !). I found on the net that the quality was software problem. Does any program or any hack exist to upgrade this quality except installing a new ROM ?
try the blue angel forum
