SPVM 2000 -> WM5.0

Hey folks,
I hope this is the correct place:
I own an SPV M2000 mobile phone from orange, which is unlocked thanks to a program I downloaded elsewhere on this forum.
I'm considering upgrading to WM 5.0 if possible and have one or two questions:
1. - is it possible?
2. - Will my phone continue to be unlocked?
3. - Is there much software available for it? (is WM2003 stuff compatable?)
4. - is it worth it?
Thanks a lot for your help everyone, much appreciated.

xda o2 orbit upgrade

can someone provide me detailed information about xda o2 orbit rom upgradation from wm5 to wm6
thanks
What do you want to know about it?
You fill the details in on the website, download the rom and run it. It will wipe all the data on your phone as well

I think I'm either in the same boat as Chappad or at least on the sake river; I'd like to upgrade from WM5 to WM6 as I'd also like to flash Touch Flo 3.0. I've been banging around the WM site for a while now and can't locate the file to download WM6! Where is it or am I just not seeing what may obviously there?
The other thing I am really hoping for is for someone to bless the newbies with, oh, maybe a tutorial on how to flash a ROM like WM6 onto a device like, I don't know, like a Artemis/Orbit and then to install Touch Flo 3.0 on it.
That would be sweeeet.
Seriously.
Try this site for an "official" upgrade to WM6
http://www.my-xda.com/software_updates.jsp
or you can do a search on this website for other "cooked" ROM's

I just tried it and you need a password to log on, have you got one to use?
Otherwise you can use the link I gave previously which is an Official upgrade for o2 Orbit which is what he first poster in this thread wanted

OK tell ya what, pick a ROM that u want to put on your Orbit n I'll tell ya what to do. How's that sound?
This. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371182
If this works out and, with your help and guidance it's stable; I will Paypal you a "Thank you". You have my word.
Why not do a "How to..." thread on the Artemis/Orbit forums here?!
Thanks,
Steve

So, Meschle...or any of the other Gurus around here; How about a "How to..." setting up a Artemis/Orbit to run WM6 and Meschle's Touch Flo? I just wish I had the know-how to do it myself!
Steve
Ok ya ready for it steve.... this is gonna blow your mind! (nah only messing, its so feckin easy ya'll shoot yerself).
1 - download the .zip file of your choice.
2 - extract the .zip file to a folder somewhere
3 - connect your Orbit to your PC and make sure it Activesyncs OK
4 - open up the folder you just extracted, run "STEP 1 - activesync then uspl cid unlocking.bat" - this will unlock the SPL and CID on our Orbit so you can flash a new ROM to it.
5 - Once thats done OK and your Orbit has reset, make sure to check that your SPL is now 1.11 (do this by resetting the Orbit and on the very first screen, in top left corner in red font it will display a few things, on being SPL)
6 - now reconnect your Orbit to the PC and activesync again
7 - and this time open the extracted folder and run "STEP 2 - activesync then flash artemis touch rom.bat" - this will bring up a screen asking to make sure battery is above 50% and things like that. Just follow the prompts and update the new ROM. Your Orbit screen will probably go white with a progress bar, thats fine.
8 - Once this is showing finished Ok, you should ow have a fancy new ROM.
BEAR IN MIND THIS WILL WIPE ALL OF YOUR PHONE DATA, MUCH LIKE FORMATTING A PC HARD DISK WITH A NEW OPERATING SYSTEM. SO MAKE SURE TO BACK-UP

Ever heard the phrase...seek and ye shall find?
The places you need to be are Trinity Mobile 6: , Trinity upgrading etc. and racerx's excellent Trinityguides. There you will find out all you need to know - presented in simple English.
You will, however, have to read. This is good, as your understanding of what you are doing to your beloved Trinity will be solid - and once you've understood, you'll be away.
If, after reading, you are none the wiser, probably best to stick with what you've got.
Thankyou, i have been looking but its confusing without a decent tutorial. But you directed me so i shall study

1) unlocking http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293957
2) Download a Rom what you want http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=359
3) Start any be happy
Once you have flashed your first ROM, be prepared to try all the others. Flashing is a wee bit addictive until you find just that perfect one. Personally I am still on the stock WM5 ROM, too much customisation and software installed to go through that again.
Thnx for the help from everyone, you wouldnt believe how much i have been searching on google n youtube etc.... surprisingly little about the subject untill i found this site.
