Thank you in advance, I’ll be very much obligeв for any help.

Sasha,
Your T-mobile MDA II is the same as an HTC Himalaya (see http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Himalaya), not an HTC Magician. Ur in the right forum, though arguably you'd have been better to post your question in the WM5 Himalaya forum anyway....
There are a fair few WM5 ROMs for the Himalaya available, the latest of which is:-

Newbie question: Pocket PC 2003 vs. WM2003

Maybe it is stupid question, but I'm really confused about Pocket PC 2003 vs. WM2003. I'm newbe for XDA
I read a lot ROM upgrade topics, refer to WM2003, but sometime refers Pocket PC 2003. sometime refer to wireless modem 2003 !
I guess WM2003 means “Windows Mobile 2003” or "Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC"
I search Microsoft website; it seems Microsoft uses “Windows Mobile 2003” instead of Pocket PC 2003.
Please correct me, if I’m wrong!
What version # is Pocket PC 2003, >4.00 ?
the correct name for the new OS for PPC is known as Windows Mobile 2003 or WM 2003 for short..some people call it Pocket PC 2003 but the actual name for it is WM 2003, there are a few ROMS for WM 2003 in this site namely 4.00.05, 4.00.10, 4.00.11 and 4.00.16 for both 4.00.10 and 4.00.16 are T-mobile ROMS... they can be downloaded from Jeff's Kitchen which is at http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/ROMkitchen
do help yourself with these ROMS...I would recommend 4.00.11 with radio version 4.21
cheers!!

WM2005 For Wallaby! YES - NO - CURVA. All confused.

hi to all!
i got some questions:
1. Are the Wallaby's upgradable to WM2005?? And if NO then why? will there be a release for the phone edition, and why release for the other non phone edition ver only? Dose it have to do with the Memory? 32 too little, min 64?
2. i have T - Mobile Wallaby Model: PW10B1, MS Pocket PC Ver. 4.20.0 (Build 13252), ROM Ver 4.01.16 ENG, ROM Date 02/04/04.
- the question is.......what ver of 2003 is this? SE or just 2003?
thanks.
Releasing An OS particularly the WM2005 (MAGNETO) is a choice of OPERATORS not by the Microsoft .. Microsoft done more than a dozen version of WM2005 for almost all devices and i believe they have no rights to release it in public unless for beta testing which is only for a particular person or group, they leave it to the OEM if they will released it or not ..
as we see a Discontinued product are most likely not supported with all new features and upgrade .. OEM loose all its interest on giving there time and effort for a OS version upgrade that they no longer sell and only concentrated on the newer that they will SELL..
we cannot expect an OFFICIAL release for OLD Discontinued Devices including WALLABY and HIMALAYA ..
HIMALAYA and Typhoon user are just lucky that someone managed to leak it for distribution .. but this leak version is not official and prohibited .. and believe it some people are sometimes risking for this copy .. (dont ask why plss)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It's just WM2003.
There is a ROM Version 3.04.00 that is WM2003SE. But there are some problems with this ROM. Only big difference between WM2003 and WM2003SE is the landscape mode. So I would suggest stay at your working ROM version....

You want your iPAQ 4150 to be upgraded to a HTC universal? I'm not sure if that has been done before. Biggest problem will be making the keyboard stick to the side of the iPAQ.

HTC Touch P3451 - Windows Mobile 6.5? Help

Hello guys.
Please someone can help me?
I have a HTC Touch P3451 with 4gb memory card unlocked.
Informations of it:
ROM version: 2.26.519.2 PTB
ROM Date: 11/22/07
Radio version: 03.12.90
Protocol Version : 4.1.13.56
Velocity: 201 MHz
About:
Windows Mobile 6 Professional
Operational System CE 5.2.1620 (Compilation 18125.0.4.2)
Processor: OMAP850-201MHZ
Memory: 107.71 MB
Expansion Slot: In use
Can i upgrade it to Windows Mobile 6.5? If so, after i do that, my cell phone will be blocked or it will continues unlocked?
Someone can guide me to some tutorial that i can use to do the upgrade?
Thanks a lot guys!
Okey
I take a look and here it is
First i have to do this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445666
do CID_unlock (this is the bootloader?) (witch version is better?)
Then i use this RADIO:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=439566
1.02.25.19 - HTC
Then i go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426540
and use the ONYX 5 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3346614
(There is any better ROM for Windows Mobile 6.5?)
(It already comes with Active Sync?)
Will it work or could brick the phone with this combination of programs?
Am i missing some step?
Some questions:
Should i take out the SIM CARD and the MEMORY CARD during the process?
When i'm connected to ActiveSync and i manually reboot the cell phone, when it comes back, it dont connect to ActiveSync, i have to take out the mini-usb cable and plug it again. Should it be a concern during the process?
After the process, my cell phone will be blocked or it will continues unlocked?
Thanks
