How can I go about finding the ROM version of a device programmatically? I have the IMEI, IMSI, serial, etc... but need to find the device ROM version specifically.
Thanks!

Several upgrading questions

Hello,
I have a Qtek 2020i which has an english ROM (the details are at the bottom).
This was bought in Portugal.
Where can I find compatible ROM, Radio, Protocol and ExtRom upgrades?
Thx
JM
ftp://xda:[email protected]_Ext-1.11.162_Radio-1.04_O2stuffstripped.rar
with Radio versoin 1.04
Hello,
How do you know it is compatible with Portugal's mobile operators?
Does this upgrade include the Protocol version 1337.42?
Where can I find the changes between my current version and this one?
Something like a ChangeLog (if you know the terminology).
Thx
JM
Essential, each of the devices from different suppliers is the same, apart from maybe the casing.
The operator settings are stored in the extended rom (search the forum for instructuions on how to access this), and these are what you are likely to need to get it working properly.

Has anyone managed to upgrade or change rom?

Has anyone managed to successfully upgrade or change rom?
If yes, what rom did you start from and what steps for the upgrade/transition?
This will be useful information for all.
THanks,
I'd like to know the same thing. My Orbit came loaded with TMo MDA Compact III ROM instead of O2 ROM. Needless to say I'm a bit peeved. The vendor is trying to fix but I really need the UK or WWE English ROM for O2. Has anyone dumped this ROM?
well,
on the wiki you will find the tmobile uk wwe rom. this is flashable if your machine is cid unlocked-in case it is not(standard) you will get kicked out off the installation by a comment named "wrong ID model" at about 3% of the running routine.
to unlock cid and flash the named rom, afaik the only way is to pay imeicheck.co.uk.
afaik there is no other vendour rom available yet, meaning no chance to fully switch to e.g. O2 etc.
alternatively you can exit the installation prior to extrom installation via a softreset at the 3second count. this not installing your provider cabs, you can then download the various available extrom cabs from the wiki and install them manually by copy and double-tap on your device.
Thormdac,
This is helpful info. Can you help me with this question: I have a greek htc p3300 rom but I would be happy to have the English version. Should I simply prevent ext rom from installing or do I need to change rom? If I need to change rom will I be able to do so or could it be locked to the Greek rom?
Thanks,
dear apap,
language is purely locked to the rom version and has simply nothing whatsover to do with the extrom version cabs you install!!!
in order to change language to english then you have to use a rom stating...."wwe" somewhere in its declaration.wwe=worldwideenglish.
now your machine "htc p3300" is with wireless lan, right? afaik, the tmouk rom has not implemented wlan on my german hero(without wlan!). the community here still isnt sure where the wlan comes from, the chip or the rom. so if i remember correctly and the tmouk rom not having wlan support, but your machine needing it, then once u unlocked cid and install the tmouk rom should end you up not having a functional wlan! in case we suppose wrongly...you are the guinnea-pig...you should have wlan. confusing? well i simply dont know off by heart any more about the uk machines having or not having wlan.
greetz
Helpful once again Thermdoc,
The Greek version does have wlan so I will wait to see if somenoe manages to find a wwe rom that is wlan enabled before experimenting.
cheers, apap

JPEG issues

Hi Guys, whenever I receive an e-mail which contain JPEG pics i cannot view them . I an using the new rom and radio is there something I can do in the registry or any software I can install to fix this problem.
Which new ROM? Please provide more specific information about what model of Hermes you have, what provider you're on, what version of firmware it is, etc...
rom version 2.06.502.3
radio 1.34.00.10
protocol 32.67.7220.10H
cingular barbados
blackberry connect 2.1

what determines the ##000000# number?

All i need to know is if the rom, or the radio version, determines what your ##000000# number is so I can write a different ROM to this device.
