My New MDA Compact

I just bought it last night, But I have read all this forum about upgrading the Rom and everything, Since I'm a new member. What upgrade should I do and do I have to upgrade my MDA Compact?
Thank you in advance..

well you should get the 1.11 rom if you dont have it now. and if you do just do the kksbigstarage 27 mb hack found on this forum. I did the origional anansky big storage hack and I love it. but that one has the qteck rom. I have an Imate Jam, and I really like the qteck rom. but if you want to keep your origional rom then do the kks.
oh and if you didnt know what those rom upgrades do they clear out your extended rom allowing you to use it for writable flash storage.

Curiousity
chakra, currently my
ROM version 1.06.00 WWE
Radio version 1.05.00
ExtROM version 1.06.110 WWE
So u have any idea what all this mean? am I in a latest update? Pls guide me..
Btw is there any drawback on my MDA ?
Thank you.. :lol:

hartunnoo,
You ROM version 1.06.00. I would recommend upgrading to 1.11.00 WWE (World Wide English). If you upgrade, your EXT ROM and RADIO will be updated too.

Hi Rudegar
Thanks for the reply I also have similar original versions of the O2 Australia Firmware and am wanting to upgrade.
I use the O2 Bluetooth head set which I would also like to keep using (I've noticed a few people having issues with some upgrade versions)
Please could someone send me a link where I can download the most stable/updated ROM for my Australian XDA II.
Sorry Rudegar for asking for links but I am so confused when trying to search for this, I never know what one to use and there are so many around.
I would also like to (IF POSSIBLE) get an upgrade ROM that is automated like O2 original ROM's, one EXE that extracts and does it all for you... no commands or lots of text to read though and try and work out how to do it all....
MANY THANKS!!!!!
Hope someone can help me out!

Is this also for the Australian Version of XDA II?

i've never heard of a special australian rom

Cool, thanks for the fast reply!
Ya I think Australia uses the Asian Rom?? but not 100% about that :-(
I though you needed your countrys rom so that you can select what telco's settings to use?
I am with Telstra as my phone provider. would you mind having a quick look and seeing if you can select Telstra if you have this rom already installed on your phone :-D
Many thanks for your efforts!

i also donot now any sing about my qtek 2020i

Help a Noob
Hi,
I recently aquired a Qtek 2020i, and this is my first time in the PDA world, but it hangs all the time. So I'm hopping you guys can help me to update the ROM to something more stable.
I've been around the forum and found out how to backup my ROM to a SD card, so that is what i'm going to do first... to be safe.
Now I've downloaded this ROM version. And, by the read me file included in the rar file, it will be very simple to run the update... Actually I thought it would be very much harder
The question is:
Must I thake any special security steps other than the original ROM backup? Or can I just go for the update?
Thanks for any help you can get me

Done
Update successfull
I'm gone evaluate this ROM... Hope it's better than original

Is it XDA neo or Dopod????

Hey guys
I picked up XDA Neo without thinking and cheking properly and i have adoubt that the device is not what the box says the bos says O2 neo and device dosen't say anything but O2 XDA and when I boot it, it says
HTC innovation
and next screen
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
GSM 02.19.21
OS 2.15.13.27
Dopod
Enjoy Mobility
I'm confused what it is???
I searched on net and read some where that XDA neo is for German market and for English Rom you update it with latest Rom for JAMin since they both have similar specs!
Now my question to gurus is whether is should try it or not?
If I loose it will anyone here be able to tell me how revive it?
I already paid 1200 for re-image once don’t want to pay again but that crash was due to some other software I was trying to install on the device.
Last but not the least where can i find LATEST ROM IMAGE FOR JAMin????
I will try and post the results here & I have no fear of loosing warranty since bought it from the gray market.
Please Advice.
Regards
Sainib

OK
so far I could find out that the ROM image that I'm using on my phone is "RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship"
so can anyone suggest which version os imate JAMin rom will work on it?? and where I can find it?
Thanks in advance!
Regards
Sainib

It's simple.
Dopod 818pro, XDA Neo, Qtek s200, i-mate Jamin, Orange SPV M600 are all the exact same device manufactured by HTC under the name Prophet.
Obviously the device you have already had a ROM change.
Now first thing I recommend you do is make sure that the device you are holding looks like one of the names I listed above.
Any version of the Jamin ROM will do but you probably want the latest, with all the updates.
Then, you can go to www.clubimate.com and download the latest WWE (World Wide English) ROM from there. The only problem might be that you need to register your IMEI on the site to get access to the download area. I am not sure if they will except a device that wasn't originally branded i-mate.
Alternatively try looking on this site ftp (user xda, password xda all small letters).
One last thing. Search this forum. I read that some people think Dopod ROM is better than i-mate and some viceversa, but they all have their pluses and minuses.

Sainib

Ah my mistake, the site is www.clubimate.com I fixed the message now. Anyway the ROM there is one of those you found, don't remember exactly which one so I guess it is useless to you.
The trouble is Dopod ROM version is higher then i-mate so the installer thinks you are trying to downgrade. I think there is a version of the updater on the FTP that will solve this but I am not sure.
At the top of the site there is a link to the WiKi, check there on how to downgrade.
As for FTP, I meant this site:
ftp://xda:[email protected]
Check out the Prophet directory.

location of upgrade ROM
Hi,
I just tried to download the 6.1 upgrade ROM but it doesn't seem to be available. If I try the direct link to the HTC download site I get the generic HTC upgrade page which doesn't include an option to upgrade the Orbit. If I go to the O2 page I get directed to HTC page, and if I select the Rapid share link I get an error (file not found).
Anyone got any advice on how to upgrade the Orbit 2 to WM 6.1 (official O2 release)(or shouldn't I bother)?
Cameron

If you have the time to do some reading then install Hard-SPL and flash one of the 3LIT3 roms, as they are some of the best out at the moment.
For some help have a read of this to get you started.
Also i was running the O2 rom for quite a while, definately better than the 6.0 rom but 3LIT3 better still!
EDIT: Found this direct link but on download it is directing you to the HTC site, not the actual rom. Very strange, if you want it ask o2 what they up to.

Screenshots please
