KJAM versus T-Mo (US) MDA ??? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

I'm hearing the T-MO US MDA is faster and more stable, better radio. Any input is appreciated. Also, what are the...
ROM Version
ROM Date
Radio Version
Protocal Version
ExtROM Version
...and lastly, anyone do a dump of this yet?
Thanks

Yep. I dumped it to SD and also via the wixard that is posted here.
My only big complaint is no Java, and I've been completely unsuccessful in fixing it. What we need is someone to extract the Java from one of the other BASE loads (like the Qtek or Cingular one) - that should be possible but I don't know how its done.

Questions about radio stack upgrade

I have a Qtek 1010 with ROM version 3.16.13 ENG and Radio version 3.19.01. The phone part of my device is very unstable, so I want to upgrade the radio stack and see if that helps. But I am a little confused about the ROM and radio stack versions and hope someone can answer these questions:
-What is the latest radio stack version?
-Where I can get it?
-Are the radio stacks country specific or provider specific?
-Do I need to upgrade the ROM before I can upgrade to the latest radio stack?
I hope someone can help me with this.
I apologize if I'm asking stupid questions, but I would be very grateful if somone could help me with this. I've seen that there are many different radio stack versions. I would like to know if there is a newer version than 3.19.01 that will work with my Qtek 1010 in Norway.
I called my local dealer who told me that 3.19.01 is the newest upgrade available (but it didn't sound like he knew much about it). Does anyone know if this is correct? And if it is, are there any other radio upgrades that will work with my device? Can I e.g. use O2's upgrade for the XDA?
Once again, I apologize if my questions are foolish or have been answered before.

3.19.01 you said... Hmmmm, we have not studied that particular version yet. Please extract it and FTP it to xda-developers.com user 'xdaftp' password 'xdaftp' if you could.

You can use anyone's upgrade, really. There a few T-mobile American ROM upgrades which also upgrade the (separate) phone ROM when you install them (which is bad, because the phone software is different between 900/1800 and 900/1900), but otherwise you can play to you heart's content.
Until recently, the coolest thing to run was probably the xda-developer Special Edition ROM v1.2. It was based on the O2 3.17.03 ROM, but had lots of features added. Earlier this week, we released ROMkitchen (click here for more information). Setting up your own kitchen is fairly involved, but people have set up publically accessible kitchens you can use. One example is Jeff's kitchen, but others are bound to pop up all over the place.
In the ROMkitchen, you have a choice of basing your new ROM on the O2 3.17.03 ROM, or on the 4.00.05 Windows Mobile 2003 test ROM that's floating out there, and then you can add the freeware of your choice. Installation is a breeze since the kitchen will produce self-extracting compressed .exe files which you just need to execute to install the new ROM.
Read many other messages here to get a feel for things. There's a number of reasons to still use the 3.17.03 (or 3.19.01...) over the WM2003 thing, but for a lot of others it's already cooler than the 3.xx ROMs.
Once again, I apologize if my questions are foolish or have been answered before.

Well, to be honest we've been lazy, and we haven't spent enough time on writing really good FAQs that represent the current situation. A case of being too busy building the stuff to actually document it all right. And this forum is so busy that I can well imagine people being overwhelmed by it all. I know I am sometimes...
Good luck... (and please don't forget to extract and FTP the 3.19.01. There's documentation on how to extract and backup your old ROM here..)
Thank you very much for your reply. Are you saying that I can use any radio upgrade with my Qtek, or are you talking about operating system upgrades?
To avoid any possible misunderstanding: My current Radio Version is 3.19.01. I'm having a lot of problems with the phone part of my device, so I'm hoping that there is a newer and more stable radio stack version available.
If you're still interested in my 3.19.01 radio stack, I'll try to ftp it to you, but I'm currently getting a permission denied message from your server. I'll try to access it again later. Or you can download the radio stack from this location.
BTW: The ROMkitchen looks excellent. I'll probably do some cooking there soon.

Can anyone pls upload the EXT Rom cab files from this upgrade.
also this new rom, since the OS and Radio version are 1.11, would i be wrong to assume that they are exactly the same as the QTEK OS and Radio?
If they are then we would only need the ext rom cab files from this iMate 1.11 to upgrade?

Well I couldnt wait so I upgraded.. everything in the EXT ROM is the same as the QTEK 1.11 except
1 - the usual KSE FAX v2.09,
2 - Version_WWE_111132.cab
3 - Imatev1.00.1.0.cab
All other MMS, BT Patch, etc.. are exactly the same as the QTEK EXT ROM.
so to summarise, I wouldnt bother upgrading to this ROM if you already have the QTEK 1.11, unless you want the KSE fax or the imate customisation.
The curiousity has just wasted an hour of my work time.. :lol:
now Im back to hexediting the rom for big storage..

Cingular 8125 ROM interest?

I hope this is the correct forum.
I have access forthcoming 8125 and was wondering if a rom dump was needed and what tool I should use to do it. I have one that I used for the Apache but I wasn't sure if there was a better tool to copy the everything and if it was needed.
does anyone know a release date for the 8125? I read on some other forum that its delayed till feb 1st. Also is it really 802.11b? the k-jam is 802.11g/b why would they downgrad it?
And yes i would be interested in the rom because i'm gonna get the k-jam till the 8125 is released so i'd like to have the cingular provided rom.
I think it's worth trying. I did it and I have no experience at all .
Grab the aWizard tools in the forum and try dumping it and the extended ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386
I'm curious the final specs on it, because I heard it was going to be improved over the Qtek 9100/K-Jam (better CPU, camera...?) Any chance to post those as well?
Also, can you post the current ROM informatoin from Settings...System...Device Information?
(BTW aWizard only dumps the OS ROM and Extended ROM, so if you have a custom tool that pulls also Radio firmware, etc., it might be better)
if you do end up dumping the rom, do you think it will work well with the k-jam?
I have no idea if it will work on other phones. I am not an expert on what to do with the ROM. I was just wondering if someone would be interested and hoping for links to the tools. I will pull the rom tonight when I get home.
once again i'm interested, because i'm getting the k-jam in a couple of days and then i'm going back to texas and would like the cingular rom for compatibility issues.
also i read somewhere that there are some hardware differences between the k-jam and the cingular 8125 so i dont know if it will work. but i'll give it a try.
did you ever end up dumping the rom? I got my kjam yesterday and going back to texas in 2 days and i'd like to have that rom on my device.
Have to ROM. Who can I send it to?

I have used both a Motorola HS820 BT headset and GlobalSat BT-338 GPS receiver with my HTC Wizard (MDA Vario) without problems.

It's very easy...connect via usb, make sure Activesync is connected, then (going from memory here, but the tool will prompt you anyway )
Enable RAPI
Unlock (if not using a Qtek)
'w' to write the file
cross fingers and wait for phone to reboot
But again, only do it if you're comfortable! I am no Qtek representative

I unlocked (also CID unlocked) mine SPV M3000 and run now a Qtek 9100 version on it...
Hi Sorry if this is a stupid question,
but I'm assuming that the ROM upgrade - http://www.richardgoodwin.com/Qtek_9100_1_6_7_ENG.zip
will update the OS ONLY (ie WM5) and NOT alter the contents of the Extended ROM??
I ask because I want to keep my T-mobile UK customisations (Found in the extended ROM) as they have my internet settings etc. I dare say one day I'll get around to finding out what they are so I can ditch the T-mobile stuff.
P.S Just in case I have backed up my extended ROM stuff just in case
Thanks in advance
John
Correct, the OS is the OS, the Extended ROM is separate
Anything cool in that Tmobile Ext ROM?
Not really, it seems to customise the look of the PDA - easily altered using Pocket Plus, and it sets the IE homepage and settings. What all the others do is anybodies guess??
Mine has these:--Seems a lot- I wonder what they all do and whether they are really needed??

Hi Mate,
Could you tell us what is your after-upgrading Windows Version is?
Mine is 5.1.70 (build 14406.1.1.1), if your WM5 version differs then there is at least one reason to upgrade my Qtek9100 rom (1.1.7.9). Otherwise it seems that 1.6.7.1 is the same as 1.1.7.1 in terms of OS
Thanx in advance
Sorry if this is a silly question, but can I use this on my O2 XDA mini s?
Will I lose or gain anything over the O2 ROM (that was shipped with the handset)?
The one feature I REALLY want is A2DP so I can use my bluetooth stereo headphones.
Thanks for any advice.

extended rom ?
Hi
I'm new so I might asked stupid questions
I got my PDA for 3 day and thanks to the posts here, I unlocked,
put some other firmware on it etc...
What is not clear for me at the moment is the extended rom issue ?
Is this a sort of addition ?
Can anyone help this newbie ?
Heya rgoodwin,
What was the original source of your ROM? Did you modify it in any way? The ROM that TMO UK offers is version 1.6.2.4, so yours appears a bit more "advanced".
Sorry if this info is posted elsewhere - I even went to your site, rgoodwin, and couldn't find a listing. Nice low carb story, btw!
Can you update the ROM without losing any data on the device?

ROM Versions

Hi all,
After doing a look around on O2, Orange and T-Mobiles websites in the UK I got the following version information:
CE ROM:
O2: 1.30.107
Orange: 1.30.174
T-Mobile: 1.30.232
Radio:
O2: 1.09
Orange: 1.13
T-Mobile: 1.10.03
I know that Radio version is subjective but I assume that 1.13 would have some bug fixes over 1.09?
Also is 1.30.232 actually newer/better than 1.30.107 or again is this subjective?
Are there newer versions than this around?
I am looking to use the latest AKU2 with the best Radio ROM and my own custom Ext-ROM.
Thanks in advance!!!

1. get radio 1.14 from somewhere.
2. get a wm6 rom from somewhere (ver. 2.xx.xxx)

Before you do anything,m read the wiki and the threads on the newer ROMs - it is not as simple as you think, particularly with the radio ROM.
Hiya,
I don't particularly want Crossbow (don't see the point, the Universal is slow enough without that), or particularly want AKU3, doesn't really offer anything I want or need, want I'm really after is just a nice stable AKU2 installation.
Will give Radio 1.14.10 a shot along with the newest AKU2 I can find on the operators websites.
Anyone got any ideas on getting a backup should anything go wrong? ActiveSync's backup option of course has been removed in WM5 (*GREAT* idea MS)
Thanks
G
Radio 1.14.10 seems to be from Vodafone in Italy, anyone know if this is actually compatible with O2 in the UK?

The 1.14.1 ROM on the FTP site works fine with O2UK. If you are using Jwright's latest ROM, I would use 1.13.
