Background:
I recently purchase an 830 (g4) dopod in mainland china, which I understand is the same us the 818 pro, I upgraded the device to QTEK ROM 2.20.7.114.
I am unable to activate with Wi-Fi function (it won't start up), I am told that the mainland china version has this disabled on a hardware level.
Assuming this is the issue, I found a patch to work round this (http://www.52dopod.net/viewthread.php?tid=293), but when I try and install it I get the error "installation was unsuccessful .... Because it does not have sufficient system permissions"
Questions:
1. Must I first do a CID unlock? It seems I can upgrade to any ROM no problems.
2. How can I fix the permissions issue?
3. Is there another fix to enable Wi-Fi for this device?
I have exactly the same problem with you, as I searched the forum, some poster tell that Dopod from China mobile, the wifi chip is factory removed.
Does anyone have the schematic of the full-function prophet, so i could locate the wifi chip position, so i can upgrade my Dopod 830 by hardware way
thanks

Hello Everyone,
I have changed the IMEI number of my Dopod 838 last night, but I had to downgrade to lower ROM Ver. for CID issue. But the rom i have installed on dopod was chinese.
After installing the lower Rom and solving the IMEI issue I installed another Wizard rom on it (which is not for 838 I think).
Well I found the Rom for 838 but i cannot install it, it shows a message like "you need newer version of NBF" etc.
I would like to install latest Dopod 838 English Rom to my dopod, can anyone help me on this please?
Wish all of you a happy new year.
All, after reading all published threads on this forum and following all described instructions I still have problem with uploading new ROM to my XDA Orbit.
I unlocked my new XDA Orbit with Imei-ckeck.co.uk in order to be able to flash another ROM on my device. Everything went smoothly and the unclocking process was completed successfuly. The problem is that my equipment still doesn't accept another ROM, getting the same error message (INVALID MODEL ID) during the uploading process as before the CID was unlocked. So, I don't see any difference here after unlocking my XDA. Can you please help me to find out where the problem is, what I'm doing wrong?
Details:
My Equip.:
O2 XDA Orbit
ROM-version: 1.25.207.1 GER
ExtROM: 1.25.207.101
I'm trying to upload the new HTC Artemis, ROM-version: 1.12.405.1 WWE, ExtROM: 1.12.405.101 published on this web
Thanks in advance for all your inputs.
quite simple,
the roms you are trying to install are test-roms, just as the full name states it on the wiki.(afaik diffrent bootloader)
use the tmouk or the dopod rom and you are off in a zip with an english rom from either tmobile or the dopod p800w( by the way the rom i prefer- by far faster working than the earlier tmobile roms!!!)
greetz
Thanks Thormdac!
Does it mean I cannot use the standard HTC ROM, never? or is there any way how to change the bootloader? If I would upload the mentioned Dopod ROM, would that support my WLAN which is now working properly? I would rather use the O2 WWE version, but cannot find it anywhere.
Thanks again, you're very helpful!
i havent seen any other orig rom updates then the ones from tmouk and dopod. since the dopd p800w originally comes with wlan it should work on your wlan equipped machine. on my hero it doesnt cause it doesnt have wlan chip onboard.
we`ll have to see about other e.g. htc roms, but definitely are the test!!! roms not working
I've tried the recommended Dopod rom version, but got the same error message (Invalid model ID). Have no ideal where the problem is.
dont know then, contact imei check and /or rerun the unlock routine
what about tmouk rom. works all fine by me, dopod and tmouk!
yep, I know, I did...see my first post. I think I did everything exactly as described here, but still it doesn't work.
I can try the Tmouk rom wwe, but I am not sure whether it supports my wlan.
Is there anything else in the process I've overlooked? Has anyone else tried to change rom in O2 Orbit?
i'm also wondering about the difficulty and sheer viability of this rom change, cause i only have the option of purchasing a german orbit, but definitely would need an english rom with wifi
Hi, i recently got this MDA II from a friend and finally succeeded in updating it to WM5 and ROM Version 1.72xxxxx T-Mobile (can't remember all the Numbers).
It work's perfectly for everything i wanted it for (Navi, etc.), except for phone calls. After entering the PIN it just says: Searching or No Service.
I tried a SIM from T-Mobile Austria (from where the MDA comes), and also one from Hutchinson Austria (3) - Same Prob. I also tried to unlock it with the unlock tool located on this frorum. I got no error but it told me that the phone already seems to be unlocked.
It's not a big deal for me because i never intended to use it as a phone replacement, but somehow it's bothering me a bit.
I don't know if the ROM upgrade from 1.6xxx to 1.72xxx is the Problem. To tell the true i don't even know from where I got this newer ROM. The only thing i know it was not from T-Mobile Austria.
I already found a Version from T-Mobile Austria (RUU16008GER_TMobile), but this Version is very old and I don't know if it's worth the risk of downgrading.
Can someone please give me an advice on what to do?
Thanks in advance
first of all then 1.66 and 1.72 are not wm5 roms at all they are just the last offical roms for these devices and they are wm2003 roms
second then they are roms not radiostacks (radiostacks are the software for the gsm module)
http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=132&func=select&id=26
list of various radeostacks
personaly i use 1.19
Thank you, as you can see i'm a total newbee to this topic.
Is there somwhere a detailed manual for upgrading the radiostacks?
HimaUpgradeUt.exe
upgrade
rom if nk.nbf is present in the dir
and
radiostack if Radio_.nbf is present in the dir
so if you want to upgrade the radiostack along with the rom
one just make sure both of the files are present in the dir
if one wish to upgrade 1 of the 2 simply remove the other nbf file
same deal with extended rom
Thank you
Ok, i tried the 1.19 Radio Stack together with the Hima_-_Helmi_AKU3.5_ROM_SP2 ROM.
The update progress proceeded fine but i still have the same problem.
edit: Wow after 5 Minutes i've got a connection with A1 (right now i'm trying a Hutschinson SIM witch connects via GPRS automatically to A1)
Ok, i tried Roms Stack 1.19, 1.17 and 1.08.
On some certain locations i get a signal, but in general the signal is very poor.
I'm not shure but maybe the couse of the problem is the phones hardware itself, and not the software?
maybe
dont know about where you live but here i dont have too many issues
but the htc phones i had have in general had a poor signal then nokia and the likes
and poor conversation quality
you could try giving other sim cards a go as some older sims have had issues with htc phones in the past
I just wanted to inform everyone that you where right (again ).
Today i tried a newer Prepaid SIM from A1.
Now i get a full Signal from everywere in my house.
Hi all, After searching for ages, I finally came across this site which seems the only good site about for this topic. I recently bought a Orange SPV M3100. It has orange software and mobile windows. here is some spec that it says: Operator version 14.123.1.614, ROM version, 1.23.61.4, radio version, 1.13.00.00, and protocol version, 32.49.7018.00H, and model no. HERM100. My question is, that I'm a vodafone user, and I managed to download a programme and unlock the phone so I can use my vodafone sim. However, it still had the orange software on it. Is there anyway I can upgrade it to have the vodafone software on it? Also, I'd like to have the newest windows mobile version 6.1?. Many thanks if anyone can help.
Hi there,
I'm searching for this radio rom. It should be the original one used in dopod p860. As I already found out the hardware is different to original polaris devices. So maybe this is the reason why no radio rom from this forum works without problems. Is there anyone who is able to help me?
me t00
tell me your reason
Please tell me why you are searching for this rom. Same reason like me?
I want to run the DOPOD with a different rom but always have low GSM response.
me, too!
It is China Mobile's original Radio. (That device is named Dopod P860 China Mobile Edition).
It doesn't have WIFI module and 3G support.
I need it to fix my signal problem.
