Hi
I could not find any posts with benchmarking results for the 838 Pro with the different ROM versions, so I spent a whole day flashing my Dopod. No bricking so far thanks to the help from the Wiki.
I tried to keep all the test environment for each ROM as similar as possible.
In each case I installed the full ROM and only "SK Tools 3.0.61.0" to do the benchmark.
ROM's tested:
WM5 - From Dopod site - 838Pro Rom Code(12/1/2006)
WM5 - From Dopod site - 838Pro latest ROM code for Hutchison 3 network
WM6 - From XDA - WM6 Vanilla
WM6 - From XDA - WM6 Black 2.0
WM6 - From XDA - WM6 Pro Vanilla - Dutty
WM6 - From XDA - WM6 Pro Medium - Dutty
WM6 - From XDA - WM6 Pro Full - Dutty
I ran all of the tests that "SK Tools - Benchmark" has.
Please see attached spreadsheet or CSV file for more details.
If anyone has a better application for benchmarking or a better idea on how to run it, please let me know.

Hi it seems that Qtek and i-mate are a bit faster in coming out with ROMs. I was wondering if I could update my dopod 838 [WIZA100] with a Qtek 9100 or k-JAM [WIZA200] ROM, if I recall correctly the difference between the 2 models are the dopod has WiFi 802.11b and the Qtek 9100 and k-JAM have 802.11g. Aside from this is the physical appearance. Has anyone with a dopod 838 updated his/her device with a ROM from Qtek or i-mate?

1) How do I do it? What tools do I need?
2) Does WiFi work with a Qtek/k-JAM ROM?
3) Is the device stable? Any noticeable performance boosts?

Thanks in Advance
Yep !! you can do that.
Actually I did try all ROMs and found out the the best (fast&stable) ROM is T-Mobile.
You can find out about flashing ROM in this thread

hi jarmsk,
may i ask if you are using a dopod 838 as well?
Yep!! right now I'm using Dopod 838
if you have any problem flashing you Dopod you can mail me at

I was able to flash it to T-Mobile but I lost the Mono BT streaming so I decided to revert back to the dopod ROM. Also I noticed that CVC on both ROMs are a bit different. On my dopod it says: "say a command" with the T-Mobile version it just chimes. I'll play around with my dopod ROM for a bit longer then maybe I will play with the other ROMs as well.
When changing from CHT to English I made a mistake and dumped the Charmer Rom Update... (by mistake.. wrong identification...)as a result the Extended rom stays the Chrmer and I can't get rid of it. I could not find a way to modify the extended rom can only "see" , can't modify it.
Could one of the 818pro wwe owners dump his complete rom (sd version) and upload it to the site?, Is there already a "shipped rom" version?
There is a copy in xda-dev ftp site at
/Uploads/818Pro_WWEOS/
Is your unit a Dopod? Anyway, I've tried to FLASH my MDA Compact 2 with a Dopod ROM and my camera stops working. Just take note of that.
There seems to a way to unlock (replace/modify) the Ext Rom.

Dopod 818 pro and MDA compact II
Thanks hanmin for your prompt reply...
1. The MDA compact II is not the same H/W as the 818 pro. Your camera did not work becase the 818 pro has a defrent Camera 2.0 MPixels while the Compact II is only 1.3MPixels.
2. I tried all methods mentioned here and NADA... I can unhide the Extended Rom but I can't modify/get rid of the exsiting content (which has been originated by mistake when I RRUed it with the Charmer (MDA Compact II) files.
3. The 818pro on the FTP is missing the Extended rom NK/NBA files.. and I can't over write the rom because it is locked for writing. A shipping rom could help, because probably I can use the rom editing tools to set it up.
I wish there is a way to write back the extended rom files into the machine with the awizard utility (it is great.. but this function is mssing for my case...).
Still looking for a flash rom to clean my "dirty" T-mobile charmer extended rom on my 818 Pro..
Right now I stop the Extended rom update and built an ExtRom on my SD card using the files that are in the FTP.. however for future sake and for the simplisity of Hard Reset in the future I would like to have a complete Image of the Extended Rom.
Which is it, how about some facts?
not just this one is faster.
Anyone done a speed test?
What are the defaul programs (dialers etc...)
DOPOD
QTek
Jamin
I haven't done any speed tests but can tell you that the lates Dopod WWE ROM is more stable than imate's.
That was what I went through too. I agree.
which is the best rom for SPV M3100(Orange)?
If you want a WM5 AKU3 update you can get the official uk one by following the link in my sig.
For WM6 - go into the WM6 section and read, read and read some more. Check out the Wiki too.

Your phone is a wizard?? (mda vario) then look in the windows mobile 6 section of the wizard forums.
There is a diamond rom for the wizard in there im sure.
Well, you do know that the Slim 4.0 ROM IS indeed a Diamond based ROM right? The other Diamond ones are not very different from it.
