Whats your opinion??? Should I upgrade??? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Hey guys! I have a 8125 that I unlocked to use with my T-Mobile service using lokiwiz 0.3... I really like it and it works great... Here is my system information.
ROM version 2.25.11.1 WWE
ROM date: 5/11/06
Radio version 02.25.11
Protocol version 4.1.13.12
ExtROM version 2.25.11.102
I was thinking about CID unlocking using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=56088 so that I could install that new T-Mobile ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=57963 ...
I was wondering should I upgrade to the new rom and would it be worth it...
Also I wanted to know the benefits of upgrading to this rom...
I have been reading on this website about how upgrading this rom or something is irreversible?? Please tell me what you think I should do...
Thanks in advance!

Upgrading is not irriversible. First thing you should alaywas do before any upgrade is a backup. Im talking about a dump of the original ROM to a memory card - you only need like 56MB for a full rom dump perhaps even less. Then worse case you boot into the boot loader and restore that.

My journey!

Hello!
I have been posting here for a little while now. Still my journey isn´t over . I am still looking for a free way to unlock this f**** phone. A Qtek S100 locked to Telia Sonera.
And:
Look at my specs below. Is there an upgrade that works for this phone anyware? If, where?
Thanks you great technicians, you rule!!!
My qtek s100:
ROM version 1.06.00 WWE
ROM date: 01/06/05
Radio version 1.05.00
Protocol version 1337.39
ExtROM version 1.06.116 WWE
qtek 1.11 rom is available on the qtek site / ftp here, so you shouldnt having a problem upgrading, there isnt however a free utility to unlock the device. It's either you call sonera and pay whatever they charge or use the services of imei check

Have you tried http://www.imei-check.co.uk/ to unlock your phone? They say they can unlock the Magacian...
Hey Mashie!
Thanks for the info but they cost money and require that you send a copy of your ID.
Thanks anyway!

Released Cingular 8125 Radio Rom old?

I just got my Cingular 8125 last thursday.
Rom Version: 1.8.11.1 WWE
Rom Date: 11/24/05
Radio Version: 01.09.11
Is the Radio Rom 01.13.10 floating around newer? Anyone with a Cingular 8125 upgrade to the 01.13.10 and notice any difference?
EDIT
I just realized that the ExtRom is on the Ftp site, as well as the 1.12 radio. I have 1.13 radio which i'm uploading now.
It can be found here
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/HTC_Wizard/Radio_Roms
Anyone?
Is 1.13.10 newer than the Cingular Radio ROM? Anyone upgrade their 8125?
not yet... but i am toinight... how'd you finally get wifi playing nice with gprs?... my 8125 came the same as yours... i am annoyed with the os rom and had much better luck on my kjam with the 20807
How did the 1.13 radio rom upgrade on the 8125 go? I am thinking of upgrading mine as well. Can you tell any difference?
Am a registered user, how do i log onto the ftp site?
Thanks in advance
Hi guys, did your Cingular 8125 come with the nice green windows theme? Can you upload somewhere? Thanks

how can i tell if my 8125 is cid unlocked?

I tried to run lokiwiz and got some weird results, flashed one of Summiters roms and got some of the features, but not all. Is there a way to determine of the CID unlock "took" ?
Version info:
ROM: 2.25.11.1 WWE
ROM Date 5/11/06
Radio Version:" 2.25.11
Protocol version: 4.1.13.12
extrom version:2.25.11.102
Please don;t blast me, I read this forum everyday, searched reseaserched and found no answer. You kindness to a newbie is appreciated.
i FEEL NO LOVE
No love for a newbie outhere? Please respond...

What next? Pls help...

Hi guys!
This is where I am right now. I've flashed my MDA Vario.. it's now SIM and CID unlocked. I have the lastest T-Mobile ROM in.
Here is my question. Where do I go from here? I mean, should I make a full backup (how to do this) before putting a new ROM in? And which ROM is the best (fast and stable)?
Please help me out!
T-Mobile MDA Vario
ROM version: 2.21.2.6 WWE
ROM date: 3/9/06
Radio version: 02.19.11
Protocol ver.: 4.1.13.09
ExtROM ver.: 2.21.2.109
IPL: 2.21
SPL: 2.21
A full backup would not really help if you want to flash your device with a new ROM.
Your second question is more a question of likes and dislikes:
I decided for myself to stick with the latest official ROM from T-Mobile (in my case AKU3.3 TMO Germany). The neat design of USER-made WM6 ROMs were just not worth the trouble and problems I got after 'upgrading'.
However,
this is my personal opinion and there are hundreds of users out there which are happely using the WM6.
Regarding to the threads here FARIA's ROM is highly recommended! Check out the WIZARD WM6 UPGRADE section here in the forum ...
Thank you for your opinion.
I would be happy to hear more suggestions...

The phone is not ready. Wait 15 seconds and try again.

ok so i too have had the message
"The phone is not ready. Wait 15 seconds and try again."

but after alot of experimenting i have found a solution. i thought i'd post this to help anyone else out with the same problem!
I bought an M600 on orange PAYG however on inserting my orange contract sim i can use the phone but cannot send SMS messages or adjust phone settings, if i attempt to all i get is the message above.
having spoken to orange about this several times it turns out to be a sim compatibility issue. orange however do not support sim swapping all they can do is send out sims compatible with the handset they sent you! i.e the N73 i got on upgrade.
So my solution, i paid imei-check to CID unlock the phone, i actually already unlocked the phone using lockiwiz but that will only remove the simlock on a G4 and AFAIK imei-check are the only people to unlock the CID.
once unlocked i backed up the shipped rom to SD as described in the prophet WIKI (just in case i needed to restore it to orange settings) and then upgraded the rom.
i tried several shipped roms and eventually found this rom the
RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_?QtekWWE_Ship.exe

to not only work but also be in english. its a great rom, very basic without all the junk orange supply as standard
I don't really know why this has solved my problem i think its something to do with the radio rom but whatever it is it works perfectly!
below is my phones new info, if someone with the orange Rom could post the same I'd be interested to compare the versions.
ROM version: 2.20.7.34 WWE
ROM date: 7/10/06
Radio version: 02.47.21
Protocol Version: 4.1.13.24
ExtROM version: 2.20.7.114
I hope this helps someone out there!
for discussion purposes
That sounds weird why it works like that since my understanding of unlocking CID was merely so that one could install different ROMs. Someone pls correct me if I'm wrong here.

it is!!!! i needed to update the rom to get it to work! as above i stated that i changed from the orange rom to the qtek one, hence CID needs to be unlocked
So my solution, i paid imei-check to CID unlock the phone, i actually already unlocked the phone using lockiwiz but that will only remove the simlock on a G4 and AFAIK imei-check are the only people to unlock the CID.

Afaik, if you remove IPL/SPL from the ROM (There should be tutorials somewhere around here on how to do it) you don't have to CID unlock your phone.
I would really like to try this! I am always getting the same error so often whenever I send a new sms. I have an i-mate JAMin, prophet touch X ipl&spl 2.20, gsm 2.69. I can't find the ROM you're talking about in the xda-developer's ftp. Can you please upload it? Thank you so much!
its on the wiki page
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_ROMs
Okay If I installed this, do I have to reinstall wm6 and then my current ROM again(Prophet Touch X)?
yes i expect so, i'm no expert, thats just the way i solved the problem on mine!
i think it has to do with the radio rom version
You can update the radio ROM without having to change the normal ROM.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_Radio_1_Upgrade
I am currently using v2.69. Does it mean I have to downgrade or test other versions? How about you? What version are you using guys?
hey as i stated, i'm not entirely sure what eaxctly it was that the replacement rom fixed but it did fix it!
Are you guys using orange M600s? whats your rom info?
mine was:
ROM version: 2.20.7.34 WWE
ROM date: 7/10/06
Radio version: 02.47.21
Protocol Version: 4.1.13.24
ExtROM version: 2.20.7.114
unfortunately i had my phone stolen so i can't help much more than that.
Okay I have fixed mine. I tried all versions but only version 2.30.21 of Radio ROM only fixed my problem. Thanks guys for all the help.

I had the same issues, updated my M600 to the above ROM and it now works perfectly
wow - does that mean you guys are using a 3g sim in a orange m600??
if so - what is a radio rom (and what does it replace?)
can you run these radio roms with wm6.1? or does it mean going back to 5?
sorry for all the questions i am despirate to get my phone working!!
I have a similar problem, going to try the rom you recommended but thought I'd post my pre-rom stats.
below is my phones new info, if someone with the orange Rom could post the same I'd be interested to compare the versions.
ROM version: 2.20.7.34 WWE
ROM date: 7/10/06
Radio version: 02.47.21
Protocol Version: 4.1.13.24
ExtROM version: 2.20.7.114
Original version
ROM version: 2.10.1.22 WWE
ROM date: 2/16/06
Radio version: 02.07.20
Protocol Version: 413.1.03
ExtROM version: 2.10.1.107
