Maybe you unlike get the bad one, you can see this forum someone got I-mate or O2 had problem , someone work very well, I think you can call Dopod/HK to repair or replace, Dopod and HTC are same company , and their ppc and ROM more stable than O2 or I-mate, I don't had any problem with my Dopod 900, I got O2 Exec bcz I like color but I still flush Dopod ROM .
how can i turn off that anti virus???????????/where is it?????i try to found it but really don't know where,please forgive me to ask that stupid question!

what is you "c" ? , O2,Dopod,I-mate,T-mobile,Qtek all same machine made by HTC , so you tell me what's difference ? good machine or bad machine , bad one just ask for replace.
i call dopod in HK,they said maybe it's my pda 's problem,so they ask me to wait for this week and give me a new one to try is it better,because i know some of the poeple using the dopod900 is ok and not always hang!
they ask me to hardrest it but it's just the same,so that's the reason y they ask me to change it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :roll: :roll: :roll:
Dear All,
First of all i wish to thank everyone here for their posts. After carefully reading what you guys have been discussing, I decided to give it a try and had NO problems at all upgrading the ROM. I do have one question though, do any of you guys here have any idea on how to configure 3G and MMS for Maxis here in malaysia.
regards
Go to connection setting. Add a new modem connection, simply put in anything for name and select Cellular line for GPRS, 3G. Enter 'unet' for Access point, 'maxis' for Username and finally 'wap' for password.
To setup the MMS:-
Go to MMS, then MMS configuration. Select the servers tab. Click new then
key in Maxis for Servername, Gateway is 202.75.133.49, Port no. is 8080, Server address is http://172.16.74.100:10021/mmsc, Select the 3G connection that you just created in the upper step. Select 100K for size and finally WAP2.0. Hope this help.

Dear ziadasmat77,
Was there any particular reason why you upgrade your DOPOD 900 to the new O2 EXEC ROM? Sorry for asking this as I'm quite new to DOPOD 900.
Thanking you in advance your for kind reply.
Upgrading
I am a big fan of o2, i was very disappointed when o2 exec was not going to be released in malaysia, so now at least my device performs better and looks cool with the O2 Active
I don't think upgrading to Exec is a wise choice cause by comparing the Dopod900's rom to exec, the different is so minute, in fact it make me wonder if O2 has realized their own mistake and decides to release the original rom(this new release) instead of their problematic customized version.

Thank you for your reply. I thought it was meant for performance enhancement. In that case I'll stick to the original ROM.
Anyone having problem with their 3G, especially in Penang? I'm using Maxis3G unlimited package. Previous it worked flawlessly but since yesterday, it stop to work with a message like 'cannot locate the site' or 'cannot find the DNS'.
The funny thing is when there is only a GPRS signal, i can surf properly, but once i enter a 3G coverage zone(the icon switch to show 'U'), it stop working and prompt me the above message again.
So are there a lot of people using the dopod 900 in M'sia?
My uncle told me it was about 3888 at the last PC Fair. Don't think too many people will be buying it at that price.
Modem_man,
Im one of those suckers, Could not help it, But i also bought a QTEK 9100 for my wife from singapore, saved 400 RM when compared to DOPOD838
Honestly IHMO, Dopod 900 will get the latest and better rom faster than the rest due to that Dopod is a subsidiary of HTC and as you can see the agressiveness of HTC insisting on Dopod to monopolise Asian market and how O2 loose their market in supplying HTC product in Asia
Rm3888 during pc fair? So sad i missed that.. My hubby bought it as a Christmas present for me at Rm4050 from lowyat with 1G SD and Jabra headset.. really enjoying this great invention... just wish it could be a little bit faster.. i havent tried the tweaks yet for fear that i might mess it up.. as the saying goes, if it aint broke, dont fix it
well....the price of 3888 was without the sd and the headset.
I myself have the Qtek 9000 which I just recently purchased. Both my uncle and I were debating over whether to get the Universal or not and I was finally the one who cave in. I got the Qtek at a pretty good price too. Paid about US$880 for it.
As for the popularity, it seems that a lot of the S'poreans are going towards the route of the O2Exec with Tariffs because it's a lot cheaper than buying it in S'pore. And if Dopod knows wot's good for them, they'll make it look as cool as the O2. Love the black clamshell and blue keyboard.
Concerning the tweaks, I'm slowly beginning to start tweaking the Q to work as best as I can. And maybe even change the ROM to O2's rom at a later time.
Hi,
Could someone with an English Dopod 900 ROM please dump and post to this site?
Regards
Michael
Re: Aftermath of upgrading from DOPOD 900 to the new 02 EXEC
hi dear
can u please help me in getting faster ROM (new ROM) for my JasJar.
regards
After my Xda II died on me, I finally took the plunge and got Dopod 900 as my brithday & Christmas prezzie. Managed to beat it down to RM3,700 w/o SD or bluetooth headset.
hi all,
i have just bought a new O2 Exec.. I was wondering what software/tweaks you guys recommend.
Regards,
frz
i also just have my dopod 900, similar to o2 exec and i still dont know what to install. I saw something about AKU2 or AKU3 on the forum but dont know where to download, can someone please advice/help us as my device was sometimes cannot received data signal while connecting to internet.
I just download TCPMP player to the device and it was a great staff to play with and I will not use the WMP for movie/tv.
Guys, I've just bought myself a new suit.
Would you like to come over and try it on for me?
Come on - a little work on your side will be necessary, and searching is the best way to show that you've tried.
Have a read through this thread for guidelines on using the board:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4534
And then have a look here for a starter:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32698&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=
AKU stuff - get started slowly before you start modifying the OS too much, as a lot of the stuff on the board can make your system unstable if used incorrectly. Configure your basics, get yourself some good backup software, and then check out the wiki and the ftp.
Most of the newer roms will have some AKU support already in, I think.

Thanks a lot bro Vijay555. Will try to surf now and get more info.

Danlee....
Just out of curiosity....how much is internet connectivity in M'sia?
I'm planning on coming home during the CNY and would like to use the service if it's not too expensive.
Would you mind posting the cost of the internet connection and who the provider is?
Will it be available prepaid?
Thanks.
Fellow M'sian in US.
To vijay555,
Thanks a lot but i cant do downdoading now cause i am on GPRS connection now. But i will visit your site when i got back home.
To Moden man,
The cost for GPRS connection will be 1 cent for 1kb. You can only use 3G in KL area. You can access by using DiGi, Celcom and Maxis as your service provider.
Hi everyone, I've just purchased an SPV M5000 off ebay and it should be with me on Wednesday. I've been reading up on this for a few hours but still have some questions which I'd appreciate some help with if you can.
I understand the Orange SPVM5000 is sim locked, is this true and how easy is it to unlock. I will be using this with an iBook and The Missing Sync software. I can use virtual PC if need be to flash the rom, but would I be better off going to a shop / market stall and paying a tenner?
My first question is: is the Orange branding as slow as the O2 Active branding? I'd hate it to be as slow as some reviews are saying.
I have read a lot about the corporate install option on the O2 XDA Exec, I presume this is available on the SPV M5000 as well - can someone please confirm? I have read that you need to enter the O2 connection settings on the Exec when you enter corporate mode, do you have to do this on the M5000 as well? If so can someone please post the settings?
If I flash the rom or debrand the phone, will I need to contact Orange to get GPRS & MMS re-enabled? They told me that they won't help me directly as I did not register the phone.
I am really looking forward to getting this but want to get it running at a good speed, so any assistance would be gratefull received.
James
First I would like to say you made a great choice going with Windows Mobile. After my first device I considered myself a spokesperson for WM.
I also had an Orange SPV M5000 in the past and if you call them up they will give you the unlock code. The free way would be to get Buzz_Lightyears sim unlock tool available from his website buzzdev.net
If you feel confident enough you can do everything to the phone yourself, but as it is a very expensive unit you have think twice about doing any flashing to the phone.
My o2 active UI was very slow, and only got slower as more programs were open. The orange one responds a bit faster, but I dont know many people who keep the original stuff on there anyway. There are so many programs out there that can do alot more.
I do not believe there is a corporate mode install on the Orange version but you dont need any connection settings anyway.
Once you get the phone you will have to configure the network settings for MMS and GPRS yourself. I notice that u have are with fido as I am, but am pretty sure the settings will be different since you are in the states.
You can try these setting for GPRS and see if they work:
APN: wap.fido.ca (or mayb .com)
USER: fido
PASS: fido
Your last question about speed is that there are so many programs out there that enable you to do what you want but you have to keep in mind that each open program slows the phone down so you have to make a compromise somewhere.
Hope this helps
Thank you very much for your help. I set my profile up wrong initially when I registered on here, I am actually in the UK and will probably use an Orange SIM for the phone, so I don't really need to unlock it I guess.
I would like to change the software though, could you tell me what settings I will need to enter and where (I will find the actual values for Orange UK)?
Many thanks
James

debrand SPV M5000
Hi there
I was wondering is the anyway to debrand Orange SPV M5000
If yes, is it complicated process?
Please advice
Kind regards,
Arian
Hey,
if you do a little research on this forum and its wiki it's not hard to find the methods to reflash your Universal with another provider ROM. If this is what you mean by debrand
Take a look here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...tion On How To Upgrade with Bootloader method
If you find any error it's quite possible you'll find its solution in the forum already
Good luck!

Yes it is possible to have ROM of ur choice to ne same model , and it is not at all a complicated process its just a same procedure as u upgrade ur device with ur official ROM with some added 2-3 steps and thats it .
Hello dear friends...
