I HAVE JUST AQUIRED A SPV M1000 FRENCH WHICH IN REALITY IS QTEK 2020 MANUFACTURED BY HTC WHICH ALSO MANUFACTURES O XDA AND I MATE. BUT THE VERSION I GOT CAME WITH ORANGE BUNDLED PROGRAMS. THE PDA PHONE IS SIM LOCKED AND WORST, SOME OF THE NORMAL PPC PROGRAMS WHICH WORKED FINE WITH THE UNLOCKED VERSION JUST WON'T WORK WITH THIS ORANGE ONE. IS ANYBODY FAMILIER WITH THIS PROBLEM ( A FRENCH ONE). THANKS
If you want to unlock the M1000, do a search on this site for a piece of software called xda2unlock. That will unlock it hopefully. I have an M1000 myself and i have never had any problems with running any software, can you give more details?
NO LUCK SO FAR AND I TRIED SOME OXDA UNLOCK PROGRAM WHICH I FOUND ON THIS FORUM, BUT NO CHANCE.
TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE MY SPV M1000 HAS BEEN VERY UNSTABLE LATELY IE: EVERY 3 OR 4 DAYS THE UNIT WILL LOCK UP AND NEITHER THE POWER BUTTON OR SOFT RESET WILL WORK AND WHEN I REMOVE THE BATTERY, I LOSE ALL MY DATA AS IF I DID A HARD RESET.
ORANGE FRANCE HAS ALREADY REPLACE MY UNIT 3 TIMES.
WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON ??? :twisted:
Problems
You are not alone, have a look at these

can u please tell us where did u buy the spv-m700 and in what price please ?
thanks
Hi
it was free !!! can you believe it, with orange contract for £25 a month,
just tried the orange sat nav from webraska ( www.webraska.com, they have an orange part to their website)
but GPRS coverage is rubbish where I live ( 50 miles from the start of the industrial revolution, I get better coverage in Morocco)
the orange sat nav update the maps constantly as you drive, but stops when signal is bad , just when you need it, so it looks like tom tom for me.
GPS gets a fix with 5 sats when I am in my living room, I have 4 different other GPS and none will even get a fix next to the window, very impressive
the beadster
just to add,
most of the orange shops got them on friday afternoon ( in UK)
I rang 150 for orange upgrade, they said delivery Tuesday, but I couldn't wait that long, so first shop I rang ( Crewe) had two in stock,
also
on orange upgrade via phone they only wanted a 12 month contract but in the shop it was 18months, I wasn't going to walk out of the shop without it, so signed for 18.

i am in uk this coming weekend where can i buy at the best price sim free ?
Nice to see orange took their time and have the gps all in the rom waiting for you. If the black version of the M700 is wear resistant your wait will be well worth it.
what version is the rom, radio & bootloader?
can u do us a dump of the rom, please?
can you point me to a thread , with some instructions, I haven't the time to surf to it and read loads of stuff,
the Beadster
Ok,
ROM is 1.23.61.5
radio is 1.30.00.01

An easier way for some (especially those of us who don't use ActiveSync like Mac users ) may be to launch Orange World, and in your IE favourites you will find a bookmark for Orange Sat Nav... you can download the software there (2.1MB)....
I have done so, and launched it, however I don't seem to be connecting to a satellite when attempting... any ideas anyone?
Cool but...
Why did I wake up and go to work so late today ?

Hmmmm... could be to do with the fact I was indoors on the 1st floor of a 30 storey office block?!
Worked perfectly outdoors though! D'Oh!
I have been waiting months for Orange to produce this phone but before I go ahead and buy, I'd really like to hear from new purchasers about the various glitches that have bedevilled the P3600:
1) Can it take 4Gb memory cards without chewing the information on them?
2) Can it handle mp3 files without eliminating the bass frequencies?
3) Does the phone work OK with a Bluetooth headset?
It would also be handy to know if anyone else bar Beadster has managed to buy it with a £25/m contract (BTW thanks for the info), so I can quote this in our local branch.
Ta muchly,
Verdi

Can you post the link for the Orange Sat Nav?
Although I have access to Orange World, because I didn't buy the device from Orange, I don't have the link stored in my favourites.
Thanks KAHA fot the precious link !!!!!
Nobody seems to have had a look at this link but they should have had!
I'm going to test it right now!!!

Hey i wonder if anyone can help i just got a orange m700 and its ment to have gps on it i cant find anythink on the phone about it how can i get this working i want to upgrade to wm6 aswell orange suck i cant find any updates on there site or anythink
you won't get anything on the orange site.
They should have little leaflet about orange satnav, please don't use, as it will download data everytime over the mobile network (expensive).
Get yourself some navigation software like tomtom, will work fine with no problems. First fix might take some time.
There is a wiki for trinity: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Trinity read this one through before you do anything with your m700. and upgrading will void your warranty, just beware of this.

ok thanks for your help
