I'm no expert in push email since I don't use it. I suggest you really search and read a lot about this. As for upgrading the ROM there are many threads/topics in the Magician upgrading forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewforum.php?f=27. Some very devoted people have written guides for this.

Well, I've used the search function and cannot appear to find what I'm looking for so here goes:
I basically need somebody to write me or guide me through flashing a Tmobile SDA to the latest QTEK rom.
Mainly because I want to remove the tmobile software branding and also want Windows Media Player 10
My SDA is application and sim unlocked.
I have the rom files, NBF typhoon utilities etc and other programs i've gathered from various C500 flashing guides i've seen around.
In several threads I've seen some people say they've flashed their SDA to different roms etc, and some moaning about the joystick breaking as a special driver is needed from the tmobile rom.
If anyone could give me a hand i'd be very grateful
Am available on discussion on msn , email or simply reply to this thread with any advice you have
Many thanks!
Goodmorning,
I have one MDA VARIO (UK), where can I find the I-mate K-jam ROM Freeware (English Version)?
And it’s very difficult to install this ROM in my MDA VARIO? (I will must first Back Up my old ROM), how becomes this?
I hope to help me...
Thanks
Hello molf48,
In the ftp there is the rom you want (K-JAM_WWE_1010903_106_10110_ship.exe).
For the other questions, i'm sorry i don't know the answer/s.
I hope some1 guru will help.
you don't need to backup your rom unless you plan to revert back to the original rom in the future. This might or might not be needed in case of a problem with your phone and asking for a repair during the warranty period.
The steps you need to take are:
a. READ THIS FORUM and also the WIZARD UPGRADE forum - take 1 hour of your time and read read read... many people have upgraded.
b. Unlock the Vario and also the CID - using the Lokiwiz utility - read before you unlock - read a lot until you understand what to do.
c. Donwload an I-Mate rom and simply install it by double clicking on it... however like always - READ READ READ
Thank you for your questions and for your time,
Where I can find this ROM? I will go to Google and put the FTP (K-JAM_WWE_1010903_106_10110_ship.exe)?
But can you tell after me with simple steps how flash the new K-JAM ROM in my MDA VARIO?
It’s my first PPC and I don’t know how?
Thanks you
I will answer you even though it is clear that you are not reading the forum.
Once you have unlocked your device using the lokiwiz - upgrading is very simple - you just activesync your device (connect it via usb to your computer - while microsoft active sync software is running - make sure you have the latest one), make sure you have enough battery in your device (it;s best to have 90% or more left) and then simply run the I-Mate upgrade file. And... wait ... and follow the instrucitons on screen.
If my explanation is not clear enough then I suggest you read. It's not fair to help people that just simply won't read. I can assure you that all of what I have said above is written in a much clearer way in the fourms.
Good luck and READ.
Hi,
I have just baught a HERMES (SPV M3100). Orange has set it up so I cannot use many websites (googlemaps etc). What do I need to de-orange it?
Also - can I get a new active sync? (the one that came with it doesnt sync contacts and doesnt sync with microsoft outlook).
I think maybe I need to Cook or flash my HERMES?
Sorry that these are basic questions. I have read the Wiki, but am no familiar with al the terms.
appreciate any help or just a pointing in the correct direction
Thanks!
Scot
I can suggest you to search the forum
You can use the search function inserting any of the questions you posted above.

Thanks for that link Elehicmo,
It is very helpful for me a (complete novice).
So to unlock a device I need to Flash HardSPL which is a modified bootloader ? (have I got these terms correct)?
If I stop after the flash Hard SPL stge will I have the same device as before, unlocked?
Few things I wasnt sure about, after reading the site:
"If your SPL version is 2.10.olipro then you ALREADY HAVE HardSPLv7. You do not need to flash it again."
How do I know if my SPL version is 2.10.olipro?
This step is not mandatory but if your radio version is "1.20.31.10" or below
How do i know if my radio version is "1.20.31.10" or below
Can you give me any suggestions as to whether Full, medium or vanilla version of Dutty WM6 v2 would work the best for me - I do not yet have memory storage but I wouldn't want to miss out on key features of WM6
Many Thanks, appreciate any direction with these questions.

Hello,
I am a newbie with Rom-Updates.
I have a SPV M3100 with Orange-Branding. It is Windows Mobile 5 installed.
I want this:
- I don´t want to have a branding. A original HTC will be fine
- I want Windows Mobile Professional 6 on the device
How can I make this. It will be fine when you can help me.
Helloand welcome,
How much reading have you done on this forum so far? The wiki is a very good place to start.
It's really important that you read up as much as possible else you might make a serious mistake and damage your phone.
Feel free to come back with any questions after you have dne your homework.
All the best.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Download SoftSPL and copy it to your Hermes
Download the WM6 ROM in the WIKI for HTC (Shipped WM6 ROM link)
Connect your device via ActiveSync (hopefully you have a WindowsXP PC???)
Run the SoftSPL on your Hermes - your phone will go in BOOTLOADER MODE
Run the HTC WM6 ROM UPGRADE UTILITY on your desktop
Wait and PRAY ...
The job should be done in 10 to 25 min
You also could CID / SIM unlock your device first with HardSPL (Hermes_Unlocker_3a) but that would be permanently. SoftSPL works quite well and it is only temporarely!
Please, if you have no clou about what all that flashing and bootloader crap means: FOLLOW THE ADVICE IN POST 2 - READ THE WIKI !!!
BTW: even the HTC ROM has branding - its own HTC logos and they do not really look cool either! Next to HTC changes phone dialer skin and connection manager skin to an ugly green color - I am not sure if you would like that more than the network provider branding!
If you're new to all this flashing and tweaking I would recommend that you stick with your current network providers ROM and only upgrade to version 6! It might be quite difficult for newbies to get all their crap running again, such as MMS, WAP, GPRS and so on ... !
Hi Guys,
I am new here and happy to be with you i got a T-Mobile MDA Pro German device i wanted somethings:-
1- Sim Unlock to the device.
2- Transform it from German to English.
3- Upgrade to WM 6.1 if there is a good reason to do that.
So i just did the following to Unlock the device i used this guide Uni_Simlock_by_Buzz_and_team from the wiki and successfully the device is unlocked now, but i forgot to take a backup of the original Radio Rom which is mentioned in step number 15-
Now i want to do the other things without breaking my device i already checked some posts but afraid to do so. please help me with the best instructions to do these tasks
Best Regards
Welcome aboard,
If your device is already SIM unlocked you can proceed to upgrade ROM:
- To change language you need to upgrade your ROM here
- Choose a 6.1 ROM that I would personally recommend! (look for Tomal 8.2 or 8.5
Good luck,
Thanks a lot for your help orb i applied Tomal 8.5 WM 6.1 , working fine now, now i am looking forward to see other things & to learn about everything here.
Glad to know it helped
Just read a lot and you´ll find great stuff for Uni!
Have a look on my sig for a start
