MDAIII Compact - Which ROM? - P3300, MDA Compact III upgrading etc.

Hi guys,
im new to this forum, so hello to you all
I have worked my way through the WIKI (which is great btw) and before i go any further i have a couple of questions.
I have the UK t-mobile version, ROM Version 1.13.110.1 WWE, basically i would like an updated version (if there is one) with all of the HTC software - looking through the WM6 threads doesnt look like there will be a version avaible for this phone, so might as well get it upto date as possible!
I have downloaded
Dopod_P800W_1.25.709.104_CHT_Extrom.rar
HTC_P3300_1.12.405.101_WWE_ExtROM.zip
both are extended ROMs, - which is best? also - what is the difference between a ROM and extended ROM?
Thanks for your help guys

Hi,
I have a very similar request: I sent today the Orbit to IMEI-CHECK guys and I need to put a new ROM on it.
I would like to know in your opinion which one is the best ROM to put on the device in terms of stability, speed, battery, applications and so on...is there a clear winner in this respect or more then one ROM could be the good choise?
Which one do you recommend me?
Thank you for the help

Help a Noob
Hi,
I recently aquired a Qtek 2020i, and this is my first time in the PDA world, but it hangs all the time. So I'm hopping you guys can help me to update the ROM to something more stable.
I've been around the forum and found out how to backup my ROM to a SD card, so that is what i'm going to do first... to be safe.
Now I've downloaded this ROM version. And, by the read me file included in the rar file, it will be very simple to run the update... Actually I thought it would be very much harder
The question is:
Must I thake any special security steps other than the original ROM backup? Or can I just go for the update?
Thanks for any help you can get me
Done
Update successfull
I'm gone evaluate this ROM... Hope it's better than original

Qtek 9100 1.6.7.1 ROM available

This is buried in some other threads, so here you go
(First off, I take no responsibility! Dumped using aWizard tools, and you can find more info in that thread on these forums.)
ROM version: 1.6.7.1 WWE
date 11/28/05
radio 1.13.10
protocol 4.0.13.24
extrom: 1.6.7.101
Here are the links and anyone is welcome to upload it to the FTP...
http://www.richardgoodwin.com/Qtek_9100_1_6_7_ENG.zip
http://www.richardgoodwin.com/Qtek_9100_1_6_7_ENG_Extended_ROM2.zip
Note that it doesn't contain radio firmware, etc. It is just the OS and ROM2.
n return I ask for your comparison in terms of speed, included apps, stability, etc. versus your current version. Reply to forum....
how do we install the nba?
Here's the thread with aWizard. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386
It's very easy...connect via usb, make sure Activesync is connected, then (going from memory here, but the tool will prompt you anyway )
Enable RAPI
Unlock (if not using a Qtek)
'w' to write the file
cross fingers and wait for phone to reboot
But again, only do it if you're comfortable! I am no Qtek representative
Ouch, i got rom-version 1.3.7.13 ... Is it many new fixes in this one?
rgoodwin Can You post all ROM using 'mtty' & 'psdread'?

Yeah this will be more helpful.
I don't have an SD card, which seems like it is required to do what you are saying...?
extended rom version?
What is the difference betwen the normal and extended rom version?
I unlocked (also CID unlocked) mine SPV M3000 and run now a Qtek 9100 version on it...
Hi Sorry if this is a stupid question,
but I'm assuming that the ROM upgrade - http://www.richardgoodwin.com/Qtek_9100_1_6_7_ENG.zip
will update the OS ONLY (ie WM5) and NOT alter the contents of the Extended ROM??
I ask because I want to keep my T-mobile UK customisations (Found in the extended ROM) as they have my internet settings etc. I dare say one day I'll get around to finding out what they are so I can ditch the T-mobile stuff.
P.S Just in case I have backed up my extended ROM stuff just in case
Thanks in advance
John
Correct, the OS is the OS, the Extended ROM is separate
Anything cool in that Tmobile Ext ROM?
Not really, it seems to customise the look of the PDA - easily altered using Pocket Plus, and it sets the IE homepage and settings. What all the others do is anybodies guess??
Mine has these:--Seems a lot- I wonder what they all do and whether they are really needed??

Hi Mate,
Could you tell us what is your after-upgrading Windows Version is?
Mine is 5.1.70 (build 14406.1.1.1), if your WM5 version differs then there is at least one reason to upgrade my Qtek9100 rom (1.1.7.9). Otherwise it seems that 1.6.7.1 is the same as 1.1.7.1 in terms of OS
Thanx in advance
Sorry if this is a silly question, but can I use this on my O2 XDA mini s?
Will I lose or gain anything over the O2 ROM (that was shipped with the handset)?
The one feature I REALLY want is A2DP so I can use my bluetooth stereo headphones.
Thanks for any advice.

yes, the build is different. after updating to this rom, it is now 5.1.70 (build 14409.1.1.2) < no AKU2.0 though
i can't upgrade always getting msg itsutils.dll inuse ?

Build change doesn't look very attractive to me coz it might be localization and other minor changes. Still waiting for AKU or other significant changes ;-)))
extended rom ?
Hi
I'm new so I might asked stupid questions
I got my PDA for 3 day and thanks to the posts here, I unlocked,
put some other firmware on it etc...
What is not clear for me at the moment is the extended rom issue ?
Is this a sort of addition ?
Can anyone help this newbie ?
Heya rgoodwin,
What was the original source of your ROM? Did you modify it in any way? The ROM that TMO UK offers is version 1.6.2.4, so yours appears a bit more "advanced".
Sorry if this info is posted elsewhere - I even went to your site, rgoodwin, and couldn't find a listing. Nice low carb story, btw!
Can you update the ROM without losing any data on the device?

last rom

I just got a new qtek s200 (i-mate jamin) from vodafone and i was wondering what's the best and newest rom available.
in the imate's ftp i downloaded JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship.zip, is this the latest rom available? is it better to use another rom like dopod?
thanks!
As you mentioned, you saw the last i-mate ROM in the FTP.
Many people said (PDAMobiz and also here) that the Dopod ROM is the more stable and better than others. I tryed both and now I'm testing the Spanish i-mate ROM. I can not tell you wich one is better, at least for me, find much better the i-mate one, but I'm sure you can find a lot of tester and they are going to give you another opinion.
Try it and choose the better one for you, then, share you opinions!

P3300 Artemis - ROM - Help a newbie with a simple doubt

Hello ya'all. This is my first post so first of all I'd like to congratulate you for the excellent site and forum !
There is a lot of resource info around here ! Great Job !!!
But unfortunately for some new people getting into this new world of WMobile even what it looks simple to you might be slightly blurred to us.
I bought in France a HTC P3300
IPL 1.12.0001
SPL1.12.0000
GSM 02.67.90
OS 1.12.00
ROM 1.12.406.1.FRE
RADIO 02.67.90
PROTOCOL 4.1.13.28
ROM EXT V.1.12.406.101
ARTE 100
Of course the WM came in French. Well I am willing to change it to WWEnglish and I've been doing my homework researching and reading, reading, reading through this website. Found the steps to do it thanks to Kleinemeus at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=290241 and found the DOPODAU and LOVE ROMS as well the Extended Rom in the ftp site. As well as I found my P3300 is the same as MDA compact III, XDA Orbit, P800W, Dopod P800 ....
But I still a couple of silly doubts that I gonna ask for you MASTERS your mercy to clarify me with your wisdoom and expertise.
1) After flashing my P3300 with a English ROM will it have all same basic features/programs I have in French like, the radio, tomtom gps, etc ? In other words, doing this is like getting a desktop that came with windows in french and installing a windows in english ?
2) After being successful of flashing the Rom following the steps described in the link above by Kleinmeus how can I upgrade the Extended Rom found at the ftp ?
I really appreciate if someone could help me with these 2 questions.
Thanks in advance !!!
It should work
Be careful when flashing becos many ppl cant get it right.
If you manage to flash it successfully you should have almost the same functionality.
I dnt know abt the ROM.
Is ur phone CID unlocked?If not do it before u change the ROMS.It will be a big disaster if u get stuck in between and u cant do anything.
Yups, you'll have all the basic apps that are part of WM5.
Regarding TomTom or other Commercial GPS applications, these are not part of WM5 package and are installed by supplier, so you'll have to confirm whether the ROM that you are planning to flash has that specific GPS app.
Regardinf Extended ROM, these come as part of ROM that you will plan to flash. Usually people only take some specific apps/patches from other Extended ROM that wasn't part of supplied/flashed ROM (i guess I am right about this)
