T-Mobile UK upgrade? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Is there an official Tmobile UK update available for the vario 2? I'm running 1.21.110.3 at the moment...as it was out of the box.
i'm only after an official update, I can't see one on tmphonedownloads.
thanks in advance.

you can always check in the wiki for whatever the current released rom of any operator is. (no is the answer to your question)

No, there is no update. I just got a T-Mobile Vario II but risked it and updated to WM6 (Dark) and it works so much more smoothly than the standard WM5.

Keep watching that download site, there have been a few people on this forum that state they have been told there will be an official release in June....
whether or not this comes to fruition....
[Or just watch this forum, you can be sure it will get lots of shouts when/if it is released.]

Where did you download the wm6 dark form
I've got a t-mobile mda vario 2 and would like to upgarde the rom. Can you please tell me where you downloaded the wm6 (dark) rom from so i can give it a go

Official (not beta) version ROM 1.72 for T-Mobile MDA II

Somebody knows, whether new official (not beta) version ROM 1.72 for T-Mobile MDA II has appeared?
:?
were all waiting
In the meantime I upgraded to the Qtek 1.72 (at leats Radio & OS) I custom build a Extended Rom that fulfills my needs AND had the NL T-Mobile settings in it
Bluetooth & batterylife are the main benefits
English Customization
I have an I-Mate that I just received 8/3, and have successfully flashed to ROM version 1.72 from Club I-Mate. The question I have goes towards a 2nd, ~6 meg file that I was also supposed to flash on to my I-Mate. Does anyone know what THAT update is supposed to do? I've posted the same question in the Club I-Mate forums, but have not received an answer after two or three days.
The reason I am asking is because my I-Mate seems to be working just fine without the 2nd update, though it does seem to be going through charges quickly, and its radio (phone) reception is poorer that the original XDA I Was using.
Thanks for any information you can provide.

just completed the update, no noticable differences except it is damn fast!!!! Would be interested to know what the official differences are though.
It's just the version that shipped with the UK devices.

Same experience, no noticable difference but it's alot faster then the dutch shiped ROM. And much more stable too.
I'm liking it so far.
Edit: Found a new program called streaming video, not 100% sure if i had this on my Vario when I bought it. :?

It is on mine, Rom dated 09/29/05.
If I can find links to this new rom from the official uk tmobile homepage then I will be installing it today.
Can anyone say if the 802.11G problem (or lack of support) is addressed in this update?
Which rom would you people recommend - this T-Mobile ROM or the I-Mate K-Jam Rom? any opinions?
Hmm I'm still not convinced this is an OK download, can anyone walk me through getting to the site from http://www.t-mobile.com/ or http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/

Looks legit to me
Although the rom version is updated to 1.6.2.4. (WWE), the rom date is from 11/15/05.
But it's working like a charm.
Hi everyone i'm really new to the wizard but still wanna have my device up to date. I'v had the Vario for a week now and my ROM version is: 1.3.2.2 ENU and the ROM date is 9/29/05. I have downloaded this new ROM but should i update my VArio with it or not. I cant really tell if i need to or not. Sorry for bein a noob just too new to all this. Thanx to all replies.

It's entirely up to you. If you're current Rom is working well, upgrading isn't really necesarry. I was having alot of problems (constant lockups, slow, etc) with the dutch Rom I got when I bought it. Thats why I removed the CID lock to install an alternative Rom.
So far there arent any Roms out with major updates for increased hardware performance, these should come out late jan/begin feb and I read T-Mobile won't bring one out till late march.
Been trying the WWE T-Mobile rom since last night, and it's still working great. Haven't had time to install my applications yet, but it's allready alot faster and more stable then the Q-Tek (Dutch and WWE), i-mate and O2 Rom's i've tried.

thanx for the reply. so is the rom that i've downloaded newer than the one that i hvae. Beacuse a few posts above it says that the Rom is the same as the ones in UK Vario's. So just wanted to make sure i wasnt updating my vario with the same Rom as i downloaded. if that makes sense.

you will need to soft reset your device. To install this ROM on your device you will need to use the lokiwiz program, then you can install the file to your phone.
Hope that helps
Jim
Is mine even newer?
I wonder if going back to the TMO version would help any? My QTEK came with this:
ROM 1.6.7.1 WWE
ROM Date: 11/28/05
Radio Version: 01.13.0
Protocol 4.6.13.24
ExtROM: 1.6.7.101
It seems a bit poky, and battery life seems horrible

Last Official ROM

Hello,
Can you please tell me what's the last official ROM for the G3 Wizard?
I tried lots of ROMs, WM5, WM6, official, not official, the most stable one was 2.26 from T-Mobile.
Is there any other official version better than this one? T-mobile, Qtek, I-Mate, I don't care.
Thanks

There seems to be a maintenance release out from T-Mobile here. I haven't installed it, so I can't comment.
Can you please tell me more about that release?
I don't have a valid T-Mobile number to see what's in there. Maybe you can PM me your phone number?
Thanks
When I looked at it further, it looks just like a different path to the 2.26 version. It confused me because it is on the same page as the Dash WM6 upgrade.
No, it is not on the same page! T-Mobile has a 'default' page where you choose your device, then they redirect you from there to the correct software.
In their opinion it might be more 'user friendly' but I think it is confusing: you select your device in first place at the t-mobile site, then they redirect you to the firmware download section and let you select your device again ... strange!
so, after all, is there any other version than 2.26 ? something newer?

Not in the US. The only one newer than that is a german AKU3.3 ROM from T-Mobile Germany. But I asume you wouldn't like your phone in german ... T-Mobile UK has version 2.21 and from other manufacturers (rebadgers) like I-Mate they are even older: 2.17 and lower.

That's too bad !!!
And I assume they won't release any newer ROM right?
At least they did not announce anything - but HTC is always good for a surprise! Even though the T-Mobile MDA is discontinued by T-Mobile there is still a big chance that HTC will release a WM6 version sooner or later (if enough customers are going to bother them!!! )
Hell that would be nice, but i cant see them doing it otherwise they have to release more updates when WM6 starts getting AKU updates every other month.

Not really!
As you can see on all that 'public' and 'official' releases: You never get A L L released AKU versions of WM for a device - only a few 'selected' one's.

Could you point me to this ROM?
I'm not a T-Mobile customer and even if I would be, I wouldn't like me phone to be branded. Does installing this rom make my phone pink? That's all I fear
I am not sure to which rom in my post you're reffering to! No, it will not make your phone pink! If you ever want it unbranded (well, almost unbranded) make a hard reset and when done with the screen alignment and skipping the password setup just soft reset the device before the CUSTOM ROM gets a chance to install itself automatically!
To be more clear: you will shortly see the today screen and then a message pops up telling you that customization will start in 3 seconds - this is where you should perform the reset ...
Downside:
You will have to manually configure your device for MMS and GPRS.

T-mobile UK ROM Updates

Looks like T-Mobile have finally posted WM5 AKU 3.3 Roms. Also for Charmer and Hermes. Hermes also has WM6 Rom upgrade. Looks like it will be a be a late night to night after work!
are you talking about this?
http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/files/RUU_Prodigy_3821_382119_026911_TMO_UK_WWE_Ship.exe
T-Mobile had already released that update on US a long time ago. My Rev5 is based on that very same ROM but I've removed the T-Mobile stuff...
Hi,
Did anyone have any joy with this update from T-Mobile? When I ran it on my Vario it stopped at about 96% and said it wasn't suitable for my phone then would only boot to the bootloader!
TIA

MDA Compact V Serial Number

Hey Guys,
I've got an MDA Compact V which I bought from T-Mobile (UK)
I recently learned the the WM 6.5 Rom has been released by HTC for everybody with a Diamond II. Thinking that the Compact V is the same phone with a different body kit I tried to download it but after submitting my phone serial number (required) it said that it is not available for me to download.
Has anybody got a Diamond II serial number that I can use to download the new ROM? It would really help. Thanks!!!
My understanding is, the CompactV is the same phone, but because it is rebadge it is considered a different phone by HTC with reagrds to support.
I beleive we have to wait for the official Tmobile upgrade.
Yeah, even if you get the TD2 Rom, you will not be able to flash it to you MDA Compact V, unless you hard SPL it first.
I just wish T-Mob would hurry up :-(
t-mobile are releasing a rom update for windows mobile 6.5..but dont have as yet a date for when.
what i can tell you is that if you send it for repair then they will put the windows mobile 6.5 rom on it.
but that means been without it for upto 14 days..
but as soon as i know when it will be released i will post it and the download link.
If you HardSPL 1.83 and then download from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581070&page=2
Then you can install the official 6.5 ROM. (Read to the end of the thread first) I've been using it for a couple of weeks and it's fine........ apart from hating the Start Menu of course
Cheers
John
PS I just checked and there seems to be a problem with Rapidshare right now but I'm sure it'll back in a minute or two.
