2003SE Upgrade for Orange M1000 (UK)
Hi fellow M1000er,
Just found out yesterday that the 2003se rom was available (Hadn't been on the web for a while) and decided to risk installing the beastie even though there has been a relatively large number of issues with it.
If you have read the 'Official 2003 SE Released' thread you will probably know that there are two or three main versions.
I got mine working with 'Mystery Man's 2.06 OS Rom version and Maimaich's 1.18 Radio version. djrm supplied the Orange Extended rom.
dcs supplied LOTS of helpful info too.
Many many thanks to all four of you!
I haven't fully tested it yet (got it working this morning at 4:30) but I checked the main complaints from other users (SD card works fine, Activesync over Bluetooth works fine, Send/Receive messages fine, Phone doesn't automatically go into speakerphone when answering, and a few more)
Really pleased with the result.
I have zipped up the whole bundle (FOR ORANGE UK ONLY) which I used to upgrade my M1000 and have attached it. (the 24 megger)
(***** NOTE This original file was corrupt - See my next post for proper version *****)
Just unzip this file to a dir - cradle the M1000, then run HimaUpgradeUt.exe and wait (for around an hour - at least you get progress bars!)
The only thing I'm not sure of is the Intellidialer - I have never come across this before, and the general opinion seems that it is good, but I must say it looks a bit naff compared to the default dialer. - I guess I'll persevere for a while, but if I don't like I'll prob cook another Extended Rom with the original dialer instead.
Also - you will have to enter the details for Orange GPRS (http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html) and for MMS you have to copy the attached i-mate_PPC_Orange_UK_Contract.CAB file to your PDA and run it. (If I had time I would have included it in the Extended Rom).
Once this has been run - you have to go into MMS settings, click on servers and edit Orange MMSC by simply adding / to the server address so that it looks like:
http://mms.orange.co.uk/
(Can't remember who posted this fix - but thanx whoever you are!)
Let me know if you have any problems.
(p.s. if you use Microsoft Reader much - you will have to download the installer from http://www.microsoft.com/reader/downloads/ppc.asp)
The only bugs I have noticed so far is the Headset Profile on the Today screen, and the Bluetooth Icon on the taskbar have a habit of going invisible (but are still clickable).
The zip attached seems to be corrupt
WHOOOPS! - USE THIS ONE!
Sorry about that - Didn't realise the file hadn't fully uploaded when I attached it. (Chopped off at 14Meg - that's what happens when you have been up all night tinkering with technology, feeling a little spaced from lack of sleep!)
THIS is the file to use. Unzip this - run the HimaUpgradeUt.exe file.
If you are interested in MMS - install the CAB attached in the last post AFTER upgrading, then make the tweak to the settings I mentioned above.
Best of Luck & Enjoy!

Out of interest, how have you found the mystery man ROM? I used it for about a week and it seemed really buggy, so I installed the dcs version 2.02t and I have found it flawless for nearly a month now. The handsfree option works brilliantly with my Bluetrek G2 and the phone overall just seems more stable than any other ROM I have tried. What are everyone else's opnions on this, I have read the posts on 2.02 vs 2.06 but it would be interesting to hear views from Orange UK M1000 users specifically!
Cheers,

Is it possible to reset your original rom in the case of needing to return the phone to Orange?
Yeah, just reflash the phone with their crappy 1.66 ROM from the Orange website and all will be restored. You might possibly have a country code error unless the headers have been changed properly on the SE ROM files. That can be easily fixed though, search the forum and there are loads of posts on it, the best one is dcs's guide.
Fin
2.06 or not 2.06, that is the question.....
Hi Fin,
Thanks for your post - My SE install is only a day old so I haven't fully experienced it yet. Did seem to stick a little at times, but I thought that maybe had something to do with the fact I have slapped Wisbar Advance 2 on top and skinned it up to the max. Will try running it bare for a while - see how I get on.
I did notice, however, that when I tried to make a call this morning that it said the phone was off and did I want to switch it on. (And it wasn't in flight mode - weird).
Can you let me know which issues you had with 2.06, and which ones were resolved in 2.02? (Also, any problems with 2.02? - I don't imagine any of these roms are without their own little nig's)
This is my first flash and was just chuffed to get SE working on it, but I appreciate the advice of people with more experience in these things.
I have DCS's 2.02t - if you can def recommend then I will def switch over.
Cheers,

ExtROM: 2.06.100a
Personally I found fewer problems with 2.02 but i have heard people who think 2.06 is better. The only problem i have had with 2.02 is that the bluetooth profile disappears but you don't need it on 2.02 as when a headset is connected it connects automatically if it is set to a handsfree device.
I also get the impression that a lot of the problems people have had with either ROM is to do with their extended ROM, people seem to be putting all kinds of incompatible stuff in there. I am using a slightly modified version of the ROM found in the following post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13621&highlight=
BTW it was me who solved the MMS issue for Orange UK, you know what they say, if you don't blow your own trumpet then no one else will
Fin
Aha - so it was you, eh Fin?
Well - thanks V much for that!
If you don't mind me asking - what was the slight modification you made to the Extended ROM (That's the one I'm using too, but made no changes).
Anything major? Some apps specific to you or just a splash screen change? :wink:
I'll prob see how this 2.06 goes for a week, and if anything bugs me too much - I'll try the 2.02.
(Don't think I'm gonna touch the 2.20 Chinese ROM which is doing the rounds at the mo - my oriental is a little rusty! :lol: )
Keep up the good work!

All I added was IIWPO and a couple of other little applications like Soft Reset and the Ext ROM unlocker tools, nothing special!
Thanks for this I will try it out and let you know how it goes
will i need to reinstall all my apps again? or if i made a back up using xbackup could i then restore it once its been upgraded to 2003se and then have all my applications back?

xbackup will not work properly if you flash your phone, so yes, you will have to reinstall all your apps again, but why not put some of them in the extended rom so it's not such a hassle next time you hard reset!

I have been using this build for about a week now, and all seems to work quite well, there are some problems mainly with the Today page having items disappear......I personally do not find that very annoying and everything else seems to work well, seems very stable ......I really like the intellidialer and feel thats a big improvement.
Thanks once again for releasing this

Hi,
I haven't yet tried the update, but would like to know if somebody has tried Sprite backup and Tomtom Navigator 3 on W2003SE. I would like to update my M1000 with this version of W2003SE. Any feedback on this will be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi all you fellow Orange users, we need to get together on MSN Messsenger and have a good old chat..
My personal experiences are as follows :-
Tried 2.02 first, this was great and worked a treat with the orange ext_rom, had this for a while until i got my BT headset, then the problems started...
This ROM doesn't have headset profile and thus the mic on the BT headset would not work so i went back to 1.66 for a while.
Tried 2.20.07CHS Translated, this was better, everything worked but the fonts were a bit dodgy and some of the translation wasn't complete, so back to 1.66
Finally settled on 2.06 with a customised ext_rom with my own additions personal to me ! (all available here), this has a great BT headset mode wear my BT headset works fine, the BT activesync (a must once you've had it) works fine, you can even access the internet over it) thus doing away with my wifi card.... and with my customisations, everything is as near perfect as we'll get.
The only problem i have is that the BT headset today plugin tends to play hide and seek occationally.
Hope these options are of use to people, i love this M1000, even better now that we have WM2003SE.
Oh and hello to all the Orange users out there.
Hi guys,
First off, let me say thanks for this. I was getting a headache reading all the threads on the subject.
I was wondering if anyone else has had a problem with GPRS after the update? I have checked all the settings against the website suggested in the original post and even another phone. Everything looks identical to what it should be but it just will not connect.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
O2 XDA II to Orange SPV M1000
Hi,
Sorry, I'm quite new to flashing ROM's etc.
I have an O2 XDA II, i am now with Orange and would like to give my XDA II a nice Orange feel to it. Is it possible to flash my XDA II with an Orange ROM. has anyone done this? I just wondered if they were successful or is doing this going to render my device useless??
Thanks in advance

There are quite a few people I have spoken to who have done what you want to do, and in principle it will be absolutely fine- XDA2 and M1000 are exactly the same device. The only issue will be a country code error- if you don't know what that is, it's an operator code that will not allow an upgrade of new software from a different network. To get round this you need to use a piece of software (xda2nbftool)which will set the country code on the upgrade to O2 (your current operator setting I assume) so that you can install the Orange version of the ROM which is floating about this forum. If you need any help with this, let me know and I will help you as much as I can. The only Orange customisation stuff is in the Extended ROM, and there are just a few CAB files that add all the Orange crap like settings,Orange Update/Backup etc.

Hello everyone,
well i have differnt question/ issues with my O2 atom:
a) this atom has ROM version 20051123B2 & Radio version MN1XN_PDA_051122. can any one recommend me as to what rom version should i upgrade it with.
would upgrading the ROM harm it? I badly need to upgrade as its probably one of the most initial atom realeases and its too slow to work on.
B) the phone has no smart dial option/software. I tried to install a software intellidialpro but it doesnt work.
C) Doesnt work well if i use as external usb modem connecting it with my laptop. the browsing & incomming bytes tends to stop after initial 10 minute usage and i have to disconnect it and reconnect it all over again to be able to use internet (that too for max 10 minutes)
F1
Hey! Here's a good idea. Why not post this a few more times?
V
It will require a hard reset but go to the o2 site and download the latest rom. Many of the problems people have encountered have been fixed by the new rom.
By the way where did you get intellidialpro. I want try and make it work. I cant stand the way the phone dialing works on the atom, the mini was a lot better.
upgrade rom to 20060123b1 WWE, downloadable from seeo2.com then follow the link below to change the value, now my atom work smoothly compare with my mini

Anyone know if it's possible to over-write the i-Mate ROM with a Dopod config - and still have a fully-functional phone?
I bought an i-Mate from Telstra (before the Dopods were released by 3) and am using it on Hutchison/3 network. Works fine except for streaming media etc which requires the handset to be recognised by their servers.
Wondering if I can load the Dopod 838Pro firmware (Dopod is supported by 3) to fool the system.
Any ideas or advice?
you can, please see the wiki.
in regards to the telstra JASJAM rom, it has a bootloader of 1.06 which means you cannot install another CID's ROM.
If you download the generic WWE ROM for the JASJAM from the wiki you then have bootloader 1.04 which will enable you to install another CID's ROM.
Please also read the info on the wiki about making your device super CID etc.
Exercise extreme caution because if you do not know or not comfortable with what you are doing, you might brick your shiny new jasjam.
Also, ive heard from fellow dopod owners on the 3 network that straming media over their Planet3 doesnt work on these devices.
i-Mate Dopod
Thanks for that jjming.
Might hold off until I know that 3 have got the Dopod going on Planet before I try anything cute. I had heard they have temporarily put the 838Pro on hold until December - not sure why.
Whatever the outcome of the Dopod, I'm going to have to fix this thing myself if I want it to work. It's almost impossible to have an intelligent conversation with their "customer care" reps, because they all seem to be just reading off a script.
I think "The Wedge" have got that scenario pretty accurately mapped.
Failing that I might see if anyone wants to do a swap - Dopod for a JasJam.
No need to do anything as you have said, the streaming video over planet 3 will not work whether or not you change the rom. But the new Rom from South Africa is very good and I have had much less drop outs in areas that have 3g to GPRS changeover since switching roms. It is also much more stable and zippier too. But alas, planet 3 streaming video or video TV (wanted to watch the poms get thrashed in the ashes series) still don't work.
cheers
After upgrade to WM6, every time I call or receive the call, the phone will be disconnected.
Anyone has same experience ? And still, the keyboard can freeze if I want to reply a SMS directly I must go back to main menu, open the SMS, then reply.
Same experience here..tried all ROMs but same..
I have been facing exactly the same thing, as far as the Radio at least. I have also tried all sorts of different ROMs, even Radio versions but with no difference. Basically, out of nowhere i find out that my mobile cannot be reached for like hours, although it shows normal reception, until i try to make a call...then it gives me "Operation Failed" and loses the signal...only to start working normal again.
Could this be the beggining of the End for my Hardware or just firmware guys???
Tank you all..
The same thing i have. TyTN lose the signal while the phone call.
ROM: Storm v2.10
Radio: 1.54.30.10
Try this people!!!
I have flashed my TYTN with the original ROM WM6 from HTC below(comes with Radio), and it seems all WELL.
PS: The original WM6 is not the best looking but at least i get to make and receive calls with intergrity now.

Ysut, one has HTC flash screen and one has Imate screen.... Other than that its probably just a few different 3rd party apps( in oz Imate is geared up for Telstra as they distribute Imate phones)... Still badly bloated with network crap. Cheers...
Hello to the forum !
I've updated my new P3300 to WM6 and now i've a problem: the battery goes down very quickly.
My mobile operator is TIM (Italy).
Could someone help me ?
Thanks in advance.
which ROM? Which radio do you have?
ROM : 3.13.408.1.ITA
RADIO : 02.94.90
This should be the original HTC WM6 for Artemis P3300 !
Thanks for your help !
I'd like to help but what can I say..How long does your battery last in "normal use"?WM6 may be a little more consuming than WM5 but not to knock down your device in a couple of hours. Maybe your battery is coming near to its endTry to install BatteryStatus to monitor the Power drain.Roughly should be at around 75mA in Stanby and 150-170mA with screen on (only gsm on).Actually my battery is getting old too and I am looking for a good version of BaterryStatus (even older versions) that refreshes values faster. If we find it,we could exchange some data about our Artemis' behaviour. Try also to change radio, to see what happens.
My P3300 is new. I've bought two of these devices few days ago by TIM (one of these was for my wife and she still use branded TIM WM5 without any problem).
The retail price was very low due to the long device stock time (now i'm supposing)...only 99Euro for each device.
I think that the battery was very old (more then 3yo) but in any case i've found this problem after updating to WM6.
Where I can find the RADIO updating ?
I see the WIKI on XDA but in ftp the server ask me the password that i don't know...could you give me this password (if it is pubblic password) ?
Could you give me some information about batterystauts monitor ?
Thanks a lot.
Radios can be found here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_RadioUpgrades. Notes:by installing another radio you won't loose any device data but you have to unlock it first (read posts!!!). As you have an original ROM, you probably did not do it before..
BatteryStatus is a small freeware app that sticks on today screen and shows some of the device's parameters, including the power consumption (in mAmpere). By observing this value you can make sure that you don't have any excessive draining, for instance if windows is not closing some devices (gps,wifi..) correctly after use. As you have 2 artemis, i suggest you to install it on both; even if they have two different WM they should drain battery in a similar way (not one the double than the other). Would be also interesting to exchange batteries between your two phones.
I've already phisically exchange the two batteries and reallineate microSD card and SIM card with phone contacts, now power consumption seem to be good.
Now I try to install BatteryStatus on both devices.
What about the XDA ftp password for download ?
Thanks you're very kind.
Ciao.
Marco
Ciao,
no ftp password needed for the radios, just click the one you like and you'll be redirected to the related trhead.
Ciao Marco,
No processor overclocking, correct? (+speed= -battery)
Radio Version is Low (generally means less consume), so this shall not be the reason, anyway it was the same as my old one, I've upgraded it to 3.18.90 working better in reception now, I've downloaded it from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397939
I've tried many WM6 ita edition and WM6.1 ita, but at the end I went for a Pure edition
WM6.1 Pro ITA - Ver 3.13.00 - Radio 02.94.90 Prot 4.1.12.44
Light edition, then on it I've added just few fixes and what I wanted...
Personally I advice you to go for an ufficial ROM,
Maybe this is the reason of the problem!
cooked bad = battery eater (maybe you have so much useless stuff running that asks the processor to run fast even when you're not using it!)
Till now the higher official ITA rom is 6,00, works fine but doesn't have Threaded SMS option...
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_Upgrades
Good Luck!
After another hardware reset (and microSD and SIM repositioning) the problem seem to be disappeared.
Thanks for your help.
