Idiot newbie in desperate need of HELP (SX-56 --> WM 5.0) - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

I have a SX-56 Wallaby, updated to WM2003, :?
I HAVE to update to WM 5.0, I have to run some software that only runs on Windows Mobile 5.0.
I've been able to re-format to 31.01 MB memory. :!:
I have:
5.22 bootloader
4.20.0 (Build 13349) OS
ROM A.30.09 date: 01/01/04
Radio A.20.10
Protocol 324e4
Model PW10B1

WM 5.0 does not, and never ever ever ever ever will exist for the Wallaby. :wink:
Regards,
Neil.

There is just one solution for this:
Take a big hammer, smash it hard on your device. After all is defect, buy a new device (new model) with WM 5.0 on it....

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,

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

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

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)

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....

Changing BASE-ROM for Wallaby for upgrading/downgrading

Can I change the Wallaby's BASE-ROM from 3.04.00 ENG Microsoft (WM2003 SE) to 4.01.12 ENG O2-Euro (WM2003 Final) ??? Because few people said that the 4.01.12 is better than 3.04.00 and Final should be better then SE. :?
And which is better, the Final or SE? And is there any possibility that Wallaby can be upgraded to WM 5.0? Is there any version of ROM that compatible with Wallaby and WM 5.0? :roll:
And can I downgrade the WM2003 SE to PPC 2002 (which is my old/first version) ?
Mine is O2 XDA 1, ROM Ver. 3.04.00 ENG and Radio: 4.21, protocol 32S54 CPU ARM SA1110 RAM with 206MHz speed, RAM 64Mb, Flash 32 Mb and flash chip type 28F128, model PW10B1 and PocketPC platform.
Thank you so much for your help. [/b]

Yes you can. You have to intsall the new ROM. That ends in having a clean device with th enew ROM. So all data now existing on the device will be lost.

Depends on what you want and what you do with the device.
I would say none of the ROMs is perfect. PPC 2002 is just to old ans some important things are missing, WM2003 has the SD-Card erasing bug, and the SE does not support Volume slider, ...
So you can try all of them and stay at the version that brings most benefit to you.

Thanks a lot
Thank you so much Stefan
... and one final question for you:
what will you do if you have an O2 XDA1 (Wallaby)? What kind of ROM and software that you'll put it inside your Wallaby so your Wallaby's gonna be the best/better (in your point of view of course) ? I just want to know your "mixed ingridients" ....
Cheers ....
