Upgrade XDA II / i-Mate Pocket PC / 2020 from 2003 to 2005 - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hi there guys
Is there any way that you can upgrade from Windows Mobile 2003 to Windows Mobile 2005?
I have a i-Mate Pocket PC / XDA II. Here in South Africa no-one can help you with that. They can't even tell you if it is possible. Even the guys specialising in the i-Mate phones/PDA's don't have a clue.
They don't even know how to upgrade from 2003 to 2003SE. They can't even help me with that.
Please help.
Thanks guys

a quick look around the forum goes a long way
2005 http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=18584
2003SE http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=16916

Thats the problem. The links are there and you can go and read alot about it, but if you click on a link to download a file and it doesn't work it's not that nice.
I am not that clued up when it comes to PDA's. I would like to go somewhere where I can get the file, run the setup and everything works fine.

Hi, Piesang.
Used the Diamond 1.2 pack WM2003SE upgrade (need to search for the link in this forum) and used the original ext ROM from iMate. Worked first time. Been running it for over a month now, and very happy with it. Only issue picked up so far is that you can't sync via bluetooth, but still works via the cradle.
ROM version : 2.06.00WWE
ROM date: 06/14/04
Radio version: 1.180.00
Protocol version: 1337.38
ExtROM version: 1.72.800
Laat weet my as jy enige hulp nodig het of nie die sagteware kan kry nie.

Does it support Sim Tool Kit
Hi Ali,
Does this upgrade have the sim tool kit?
Thanks in advance :?:
isn't this the same version everyone has been using?
I just have to run the executable file right? I don't need an SD Card writer or anything for this download? just my normal connection and activesync? what if the upgrade screws up? can i reload the old ROM image? and where do i get it!
Thanks a lot!
hi from Riyadh

Is it possibile to upgrade to wm2003 thru USB cradle ? My current version for Asian XDA is:
ROM version: 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date: 10/11/02
Radio: 4.17
Protocol: 32S54
Has anyone tried to upgrade an asian XDA (EN version) ? Any problems ?
Thanks,
I upgraded my XDA last night via my USB cradle. I had NO problems at all. Took a little longer than normal :?: But other than that it was fine.
Gil
Gil,
did you use Ali file uploaded on his site ? Is your XDA UK or Asian version ? Which nr ?
Thanks,

I had the same set upwith yours previously. I upgraded to SER 1.2 and WM 2003 after that. I also upgrade my radio stack to 4.21 from O2 UK. But now, I am back with SER 1.2 and Radio stack 4.21. I wish Icould go back to my old Radio Stack 4.17.
With 4.21 Ilost the "G" and signal strength for GPRS.
I hope my experience helps.
Beeheij, why didn't you keep the 4.17 radio version with WM2003 ? Was it not running properly ?
I think it's always dangerous upgrading the radio module with newer version dedicated to other regions (UK)
Thanks,
brix3,
I want to back to 4.17, but I cannot. Somehow during the process of rolling back I was kicked out.
As for the WM2003, the problem was in the SMS mode. When I picked a phone number, the "+"sign in my contact was not transferred tothe address in the SMS. So each time I wanted to send SMS, I had to correct the phone number.
My Battery Pack was not working. It hung my XDA.
Hope this helps
Has anyone in the US used or done this upgrade? Since it also upgrades the Radio Stack I'm just wondering. If GPRS is getting dropped as stated in other posts it is more that the network drops you or you lose data connection between cells, or the network has a load balance that give placement to voice users over data when bandwidth is needed. Not so much that your radio stack does it.
On the other hand just incase anyone wants to prove me wrong :wink: who in the US has upgraded their radio stack to O2 4.21 and experienced a better performance than AT&T's radio stack (speed stability as staed on their website) :?: This means you probably already had to manually switch the default band 8) first, right? :x
Let me know I love to be wrong :shock: ......I'm only that much smarter than I was yesterday :roll: :lol:
I'm a little confused. I upgraded to XDA v1.2 and my Device Informations are:
ROM Version: 3.17.03
ROM Date: 05/15/03
Radio Version: 6.18.00
Protocal Version: 324e4
How is it that my radio version is so much higher?

i must admit this version of ppc2003 is the dogs danglys compared to the old ozone version

as far as i know XDA v1.2 will not touch your Radio, it will just replace your old CE ROM with the new one which has lots of cool stuff.

UPGRADE WIN PPC -> WM2003SE

Hi!
I read lots of articles about upgrading device soft but i can't get it clear enough. First of all: is it possible to upgrade my XDA/Wallaby to WM2003SE? I know it can be done with XDAII but I have Wallaby...
If Yes, can somebody write a detailed description about upgrading it or just paste in some links where the description and files are? What radio etc you recommend and why?
Here is what I'm running:
Microsoft Pocket PC version 4.20.0 (Build 13252)
ROM ver: 4.01.16 ENG
ROM date: 02/04/04
Radion ver: 4.21.00
Protocol ver: 32S54
What can i do with that? Thanks in advance
You cant upgrade wallaby to wm2003se.
so therefore is it possible to upgrade it with wm2003? I looked at siemens site looking for update to wm2003 but it is no longer available... anyone having it? is there any news about wm2003se available for Wallaby any soon?
sniffer you have mw2003 all rom versions beginning with 4.xxx are 2003
all that are 3.XXXX are 2002

Not really true.
There is a WM2003SE Version for the Wallabys.
But it´s protectef by an unknwon key, that uses (i think) the IMEI. Until now it´s not possible to use it on every device, since this key have to be adapted in any way to each device....
Stefan
Damn!!!! and why the hell did they protect it with a key?!?!?
you mean that no one ever can crack that key? ohhh

Thanks for your help
Baleso
Hello Baleso.
You find new ROM Versions here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ROMVersions
or you can create your own ROM here:
http://www.romkitchen.de
Best procedure is doing a hard reset, reconenct your device via active sync and run the exe-file.....
Concerning your Problem with your GPS:
You have to disable beam to free the port for connecting the gps receiver....
Stefan
For Stefan. what the beam and how can i disable it in my xda
Hello Stefan,
thanks very much for your replay. i am a newbe in this forum so excuse for the stupid question: what ist the beam? and how can i disable it in my xda?
Beam -> Infrarot
There is a icon for it in the system settings....
Stefan
thanks you very much
Thanks Stefan, it´s working and i can use my xda now as Navi.
One question: it is possible to upgrade my actuel ROM 3.19.01 GER with a english ROM 4.01.12 (O2 Euro) without damage my xda? My question seem to be stupid but i muss ask it, because i don´t know and i don´t want to damage my xda.
Thanks for your Help
