UK O2 Orbit WM6 update - P3300, MDA Compact III upgrading etc.

Its now up n running d/loading now as I speak ;-)
http://member.htc.com/ruudownload/O...r=http://www.my-xda.com/xdaOrbitSoftware.html

Installed and running with no problems- apart from having to wait for my battery to reach 50%.
It doesn't look any different to WM5. It's fairly underwhelming really. PPCPimBackup worked a charm though!

Hi
Can any one please advise if WM6 is:
1- Has no SD card corruption problem (this is fixed in WM5 by installing a CAB update)
2- Works with TomTom 6. I currently have TomTom6 which works in WM5 and would like to make sure it is compatable with WM6.
Thanks

In reply to your questions.
1. So far no corruption.
2 TT6 works perfectly.

Many thanks for your resopnse Shand359. I am collecting more info and feedback from users recently installed WM6 (see the other thread) and they report problems with Wifi and Bluetooth. Did you have the chance to check every thing? Is your device UK orbit. Thanks again.

Many thanks
Many thanks

AT& Wireless WM2003 Upgrade

Ok so bear with me here. I am very new to this stuff (1 week). I just bought a used Siemens SX56 for AT&T Wireless from a friend of mine. I inserted my SIM, Syncronized my Outlook and things are GREAT! I love this thing. But...I'm greedy. I want more. I want to upgrade to WM2003. Based on what I have read there are a few features that would make this baby even nicer. The problem is the following:
1) I don't know where to get the upgrade. Siemens no longer posts it on their Website and niether does AT&T. I have read some really advanced stuff on some of the other topic areas regarding loading the Rogers version but I'm not sure how to do this and I don't want to mess this thing up. Does anyone know where I can find the AT&T version of WM2003 for my Siemens?
2) Is it really worth the upgrade? I have seen some complaints from people saying that the wish they hadn't upgraded because it not a stable. Or that the installation went bad and messed up the ROM.
3) Is the Siemens/ATT version of the WM2003 actually the right way to go or is there a better version?
Sorry for the really dumb questions but like I said I'm a newbie.
Thanks,
J
Ok, I found it! this is the original Siemens/AT&T WM2003 upgrade. http://www.wireheadtechnologies.com/sx56/sx56_wm2003_update.exe
I ran this last night and it works like a charm. Be sure to have Activesync 3.7.1 and remove SD card. Took about 10 minutes.
good luck!
does your SD card erase after awhile
:lol: I was looking for this upgrade for two days until I found this site. Thank you for not using the link straight from the Siemens website and thanks for the file.

I've been using WM2003 which I cooked in Lumpstefan's kitchen for about 3 weeks with NO problems. (A.30.09)
I also flashed the RSU with the newest AT&T RSU ROM Ver A.20.10 from
Yorch: www.yorch.net > upgrades.
The only thing I don't like is the RUU from Lumpistefans comes with an add-on program "Pocket NAV". It causes the operating system to freeze, requiring numerous reboots. I shut down Pocket NAV, and no more freezing.
Have fun,
Carey
Light at the end of tunnel?
Hello,
I am really frustrated, I would greatly appreciate any help-
I just finished reading Carey's post about the RSU upgrade to A20.10 from Yorch's website. I have a sx56 (USA-MN) and in areas of low signal, the signal is lost and the phone will not reaquire signal until a soft-reset. The phone has the following config:
Upgraded toWM2003
R33.02
A30.09
l'm not asking for a guarantee, but do you think that Yorch's RSU download (A20.10) might work for this phone. Yorchi's site mentions unzipping the files from A20.10 into the \windows folder then running the RSUpgrade.exe. Does this mean unzip the files to a desktop PC then copying them into the \windows directory on the sx56?
If i've got the method wrong, do you have a link that you can direct me to regarding the method of installation?
Thank you for any help!!
I am wondering about the same thing . MY sx56 drops signal all the time in my apt and I am hoping the new RSU will help the sx56 latch on and hold on to the signal better.. oh well.. if someone has tried it please share your experience...

Sandisk WIFI + 256Mb Drivers, get them while you can.

http://www.sandisk.com/download/drivers/wifi/drivers-pocketpc-v86.zip
No idea why they don't post them on their site themselves. These drivers work great! They are even newer than the ones at socketcom.com.
Unfortunatly, on my MDA compact, the Wi-fi speed still does not go above about 300kbps . If anyone knows a fix for that, I would be a happy man!

Thanks for the link. I extracted the files and I see two cabs for Win CE4.
SA_SD_CE4_3-1-4_86_EN.CAB
and
SA_SDC_CE4_3-1-4_86_EN.CAB
They are different sizes so I'm wondering which one to use, the SD or the SDC version.
I have the Sandisk 256 meg WiFi SD running on an imate Jam.
Thanks
I used the SDC version. I have the same setup as you. I think the difference might be that the SD version is for the card without extra memory.

WM6>2003?

How to roll it back from from WM6 to 2003?When I'm trying to do this,it gives me Country ID Error.what's the problem?Thank you
hello again!
have u tried this again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1485240#post1485240 ???
are you using "MaUpgradeUt__NoId.exe" to flash?
there is a lot of information - what a surprise - in the good old wiki.... it's kinda confusing from time to time, but read thru it anyways, it does actually help!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardDowngrade0
good luck,
krz
ps: why are you trying to downgrade anyway...?
Thank u for quick reply))I have some troubles with WiFi.Also I'm not sure that WM6 supports all programmes created for 2003&wm5.Maybe this is the main reason.Is it true by the way?Can I run stuff for WM5 on WM6?
some progs will work, some maybe wont... best way to find out is to try!
but i never had problems like that....
wifi is working for me as well...
krz
As the WM6 is only slightly tweaked version of WM5 there are almost no problems with apps running on newer system. You'll certainly find much more apps which do not run on older systems like WM5 or WM2003 than on WM6.

About to upgrade to WM6 on my S200

I'm planning to upgrade to WM6 in the next days on my QTEK S200.
I have a full backup (with "spb backup") ready and everything I needed is ready to be restored.
The origin of this upgrade is that actually I can't use the Active Sync any more on my qtek ... it doesn't connect on any pc I tryied, other devices connect without problems...
Then I will hard reset and, seen that I will have to reinstall (a full restore of the registry would probably take me to the same problem I have now) I will give WM6 a try.
However, I'd like to hear from all who already did this upgrade some sort of feedback: is it working fine? known bugs/problems?
just done it yesterday.
- run the NVID upgrade, then run any of the givem WWE ROM's available
hang the system ocne, recovered it and am now trying out transformer 1.1
works nice and easy, even after only browsing the forums for 2 days now
Arrosto, perhaps it's a stupid question, but how can you upgrade without syncing to pc? i have the same problem - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=339389

destinator 7 fails when sim is installed on HD2

Hi guys,
I 'm facing a very weird problem. I own a HTC HD2. I have installed Destinator 7. When the SIM card is not installed (or the SIM is physically installed but I don't provide the PIN) destinator works fine. When I enter the PIN for the SIM, so my phone connects to the mobile phone provider, Destinator software fails to start. The destinator's logo appears on the screen and HTC halts. Power-off button doesn't work and I had to press the hard reset (red pin at the back). I have ran many tests and the conclusion is always the same - Destinator halts when SIM is installed. Does anybody else had a similar behavior? Any ideas for further troubleshooting are welcome.
thanx.
I have both destinator 7 and igo8 on my hd2 and both work without any problems, do you have a branded hd2?
Hi Mathie,
thank you for your reply. My HTC is not branded or somehow locked (I hope). I 'm running the original ROM v. 1.66.482.1 ELL, O/S 5.2.21869, manila 2.5.19211619.0, RF 2.06.51.07. My service provider is Cosmote. I 'm not sure if this information helps, but I cannot think ANY reason why destinator hangs when the telephone SIM is installed.
Is there any possibility the GPS receiver to get a conflict with A-GPS ? I' d rather say no...
N-drive at the other hand, works fine, it's an excellent program, but I 'm get used to Destinator.

have you tried to put another sim card in your phone? wind, or vodafone? and see if the problem insists? have you tried to update quick gps? have you changed the com ports? (by default destinator 7 uses com port 4)
Hello again.
I have tried to perform the following tests.
1) I have replaced cosmote SIM with Vodafon one. I destinator has the same behavior.
2) I turned off RF radio (airplane mode). Destinator works fine but of course I cannot use HTC as a mobile phone.
3) I have formated the entire flash (CF) and create only the destinator directory. The problem persists.
4) I 'm not sure if quick GPS interacts with Destinator, but since you 've mentioned it I run quickGPS version 1.3 (built 1920.2423)
Destinator has been set up to use com4. If I don't register to a Mobile Provider (or RF is dissabled) the program runs fine, otherwise the startup logo fills 9 out of the 10 red arrows and stacks there.
thanks once more for your time.
where did you buy your phone? are you using a stock rom or a cooked one? I am using this rom here and all is well,no problems at all if the problem persists download the above rom and flash your phone with it. i'm sorry but some things get messed up if your rom is not well installed i can't help any more.
Hi again,
thanks for your answer. I 've checked the rom link you 've mentioned. I 'm already running ROM v. 1.66.482.1 ELL. I got the HTC from a recent offer of Vodafon. They sponsor a 450 Euros discount for the device, and HTC HD2 was in the list. I have not flashed the phone yet, since I already have the latest release. I 'll get a full backup and I 'll try to flash it, just to see if that will fix the problem. I 'll post my findings.
thanks.
Hello,
I have good news. I have re-installed the original ROM v. 1.66.482.1 ELL as you have suggested and Destinator 7 works FINE. I still cannot figure out what could of being wrong, with my original same version ROM, but when I re-flashed to the one downloaded from here http://www.htc.com/gr/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=863 the problem is gone.
Thanks once again for your valuable suggestions.
