WM6 Update conclusion - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

Hey Guys
i just considered installing the new WM6 Update for my German O2 XDA Orbit...
but as far as I read, I came to a conclusion, its not yet worth installing because of the very poor battery life? Or is this "registry hack" mentioned in another thread really working?
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\AutoLoad\ TRUEFFS_DOC1] "Bootphase"=dword:00000002
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ TRUEFFS_DOC1] "MountHidden"=dword:00000000
Did anybody have a good experience? I am still unsure.
Thx for your hints!
Vic

i have edit, customized and write to XDA Orbit extrom, this is work perfect and i have not problem with battery !!
look this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296276

I'm with you on that nicknicker. It is tempting to do the WWE WM6 but it doesnt seem like it would be as stable as I would need it to be. I travel a lot and relay on the calender/wifi/and email functions of my phone and risking stability is not in my budget. I guess one could ask why I even bother playing with it in the first place...but what I have accomplished thanks to this board has been worth it. I am going to wait for the HTC or O2-UK WM6 release.
I am however very impressed with the fact that these people were able to do this...

i did the WM6 english update as it is described in this forum 5 days ago and the only thing i can say is that its AMAZING !!.. everything works fine , super FAST and i have absolutely no problem..
i havent noticed any battery problem and definetely i will keep this rom.
i recomend it!

My P3300 is running faster than with WM5 before. The battery indeed seems to drain a little faster than in WM5.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\AutoLoad\ TRUEFFS_DOC1] "Bootphase"=dword:00000002
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ TRUEFFS_DOC1] "MountHidden"=dword:00000000
Not realy working for me.
After one night battery goes down with 20-30% only in standby

Is this not because you're playing with the phone more now that its WM6? I know that when I first got my Artemis the battery life seemed appalling after my previous SE device. After a few days once I'd stopped playing around with it so much the battery life seemed to get better (possibly the battery becoming better conditioned after a few charges?) and even now when I use it more it obviously lasts less time.

Have to say, no issue with battery life since WM6 upgrade here.
I did the OS upgrade only as my device is still CID locked. Perhaps it's something in ther radio flash from the rest of the full package.

I did the upgrade, battery life is worse, but machine is pretty faster than B4.
Another issue is that the call-auto recorder Vitonote software ainta able to record calls anymore. I am waitin for un update.
Each time I did the registery hack my ppc goes bad, with new "extendROM" appears in my storagecard??? wondering why?

Is there a way to flash the windows mobile 6 part only and keep the existing radio version 02.67.90 ?
TIA

This WW6 doesn't touch your radio version at all cuz it aint complete ROM, so Don't worry about Radio here.

o2Customer services and WM6
Not sure if this is too relevant to the thread but thought i would share anyway!
I spoke to th lovely people at O2 UK whom suggested the proper release of the WM6 rom for the XDA Orbit (Artemis) will be the back end of the summer!
This being my first XDA, is the the kind of support you get from O2 UK? I mean, Germany have the ROM already available as a download, not only that but their site is far better and far more informative!

Followed this up. Reinstated the original t-mobile ROM then did the OS upgrade keeping my old radio 02.49.90.
Seems to have worked well. There doesn't seem to be any issue with the CPU being ramped up and so far the battery life seems much better.
Maybe the t-mobile devices don't get on with the latest radio version?
ps does anyone which drains the battery faster exchange server or imap checking every 5 min?

Radio Version Upgrade w/ WM 6

Good evening everyone. I was wondering if anyone found a problem with upgrading their radio to 1.38.30.10. I have read that some people see a big battery drain. Does anyone know the best combination in relation to having the best radio version alongside having installed a cook rom of Windows Mobile Black Edition 1.2 with SPL 1.13.Olipro Bootloader
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
at the moment the general concensus is that 1.38.00.10 is the most reliable. However the battery drain issues might be due to 3rd party software (can understand why but cant really explain my hunch very well).
Your best bet is to upgrade to radio 1.38.00.10, do remember to flash HardSPL first.
it says on the page you need to update it to SPL 1.4, it wouldn't screw up my phone if i already have SPL 1.13 that came with Windows Mobile 6 Black Edition 1.2?
If you follow the links i provided you dont need SPL 1.04, unless you insist on flashing them manually(caution advised).
First flash HardSPL which will upgrade you to SPL version 1.40.olipro, top do that CLICK HERE.
Then next upgrade to radio 1.38.00.10 by following the guide, CLICK HERE.

Good stuff dude.
As always i recommend giving the wiki a damn good read, my guides are good to get stuff flashed but its always good to know the stuff behind the scenes aswell enjoy
I read till my eyes bled. I spent a good 2 weeks looking over the Wiki, guides, and user posts/experiences/problems so I'd be ready for most anything.

the 2nd link you provided, when I was about to update it, it said would you like to update to 1.18.00.10... I think this is incorrect....
?!? HUH?
If you are referring to the screenshots i do say to IGNORE THE VERSION number!
yes sir i know that.. this is the screen shot
wierd but i still went thru with it... and i went to device information and it showed up with the 1.38.00.10.. very weird.. but still works non-the-less

Good though the upgrade worked.
I have just upgraded to 1.38.30.10 but did not have time to check the battery lifetime.
I did this actually because in combination with WMBE 1.2 and Radio 1.38.00.10 the original HTC handsfree M100 was working very very bad, with lots of voice path interruptions.
Needless to say that neither 1.38.30.10 did a better job, as well as other ROM and Radio combinations.
I'll come back with impressions on battery lifetime and speech quality as well about the 1.38.30.10 version...

I've been running with 1.38.30.10 for several days now (since it came out actually). Before that I was on 1.35, then 1.38.00.11, then 1.38.00.10 (which is just 1.38.00.11 with the GPS stripped out). Only time I've noticed excessive battery drain is when I'm in a questionable 3G area & the phone keeps switching between 3G & 2G (GSM). I don't find that surprising, however.
If you are in Aus & using Telstra, it is my understanding that the minimum recommended radio version will soon be 1.38.30.10 due to some 3G Network upgrades in progress by Telstra.

I thought you meant ignore the version displayed on your SCREEN SHOTS! But everything is alright. Need to check out the battery drain issue if there is.
Usually i use internet but not all the time, and i have my BT running for my ear piece, and just usual regular calls. Will see how things are doing tomorrow so i can see whats going on.

Flashed, first time i test call the phone get stuck and i have to do a soft reset. After soft reset the phone stuck on the todaypage, after second soft reset everything seems to work . Thnx Tom
UPDATE: There is a conflict with the Iphone Dialpad Skin, when you are calling and bring up the keypad the phone get stuck.
i use it since yesterday and the battery lifetime is recognizable better.
for speech quality and receiving capabilities, no problem until now...
I I have installed yesterday and is perfectly working without some problem. Good the quality of reception and good the duration of the battery.
Hello everybody!
I'm new here and this is my first post, but i've been watching what's going on since this summer yesterday i installed this version of radio (running Vanilla 3.0 ROM with mods) and noticed that 1 minute of conversation eats approximately 1 percent of battery, so this afternoon i had to recharge my phone again to prevent it from dying. I suspect this is a new radio rom fault. Trying to downgrade to 2.98.90.
Thanks!
Uploaded. No problem so far.
Lost only 8 percent between 6.00 pm and 10.am with no use of the phone.
A friend of mine, stil on 2.98.90, lost 12 percent in the same time with a call of approximatively 10mn.
We are both on Aje1.8
I think that they are equivalent regarding battery drain.
Note that I removed 'battery status' because I lost 5 percent in only 1 hour. This program is a real pain for battery life.

Samsung i780 - Is it possible to run Hard SPL and other ROMs?

Hello Everyone!
I want to thank you all for making this site so informative and to the point - as I have been a frequent visitor since the days of my first (original) SPV. I have finally decided to try a different phone to my usual HTC choice and have just got the Orange i780 (which is a great phone! )
I was wondering if it might be possible to run something like HARD SPL on it and then put on a cooked ROM as the supplied Orange ROM is, as ever, far from thrilling. I would appreciate any help and if anyone wants some more information about the phone (as so little is currently available at the moment) ask away - and I will reply as soon as I get the chance.
Thank you!
I was going to get one of these, is it worth having? Have orange removed all the samsung stuff and put on their own stupid menu?
yup- they have. But its a gorgeous phone so as soon as it becomes possible to put new ROMs on it, it will be one of the best ones around in its form factor. Its nice to have something that feels half the weight of the TYTN2 and more than half as thin
Has anyone got an english rom working on the German Version of the i780? I see it is availiable on www.handit.de at a much cheaper price.
Has anyone tried the SDHC compatibility yet, I want to order a MicroSD card and will get the 8GB if it supports it?

Definetely. It's the fastest WM device ever. The mousepad is really cool. Better resolution (also yet, many programms have problems with it, not correct displaying etc.). Amazing build quality.
One thing that's missing is a cooked rom. The Software has bugs over bugs. a developer customized rom would be amazing.
But the device itself and esp. it's performance (processor) is the best ever!

As a favor to the community would you be so kind as to upload the SDHC drivers from the i780 to the FTP section of the site? That way people with other Samsung devices (SCH-i760, SGH-i760, SCH-i730 etc) could perhaps get full usage out of their SD Cards? The SGH-i780 itself looks pretty cool. Did it come unlocked?
Re: drivers
Hi Dominick,
I would e happy to help but have no idea what thedrivers you are talking about are or how I could get them off the phone - so if you can give me step by step instructions, I will happily do so. No, the phone is locked - and I can't wait to be able to put on cooked ROMs and use another SIM with it. Apart from the ROM gripes, loving the phone!
So in the i780's current state is it full of bugs?...generic and orange branded?
Also,would it not be possible to dump the rom from the generic and then flash to the orange branded device.
Thanks
J273
You make it sound like putting on a diff ROM would be very easy - please let me know how! I have always had to use HardSPL and other methods prior to that... Itsnot really full of bugs, its just the annoying ROM orange with useless things there and ... well I just want to run Schap's ROM for example or any other I choose
Sorry i got no idea im afraid....But i thought thats the way it works.....Use a rom dumper which will dump the rom to a memory card and then build a installable ROM from the dump of the generic handset.
Might be wrong though.
I don't think the i780 is full of bugs, more a couple of glitches which aren't too annoying.
There is no vital bug and there is nothing which can't be fixed with the next OS update.
The most annoying thing was actually that the i780 didn't come with any navigation/GPS software and apparently only Google Maps and Garmin XT mobile seem to work fine, the others(like Tom Tom 6 for example) require the tool GpsGate to work with the i780.
The i780 is VERY fast, not only the CPU but also the GPU. I actually started to love this little thing, it really is a stylish and pretty light powerhouse.
Right now, I think the i780 is the most powerful Windows Mobile 6 Professional smartphone on the market(considering CPU & GPU performance) and also the most underestimated device too. Battery life is decent too, build quality is impaccable. I just wish Samsung would have provided a 5MP camera and a quadband GSM/Triband UMTS functionality, especially since the new Marvell CPU seems to provide hardware support for both.
I have managed to get hold of an Italian version but need a UK ROM .... anyone managed to get hold of one?
Is there any other way to change the ROM to English?
Is this the one from ebay?
I should be getting mine in the next few days
Cant you like hard reset it same with HTC's and then select the language at the start?
Have you tried holding down 6 and the # key when you power the phone up..this should hard reset it....if its like other samsung win mobiles.
Yes from Ebay ... arrived next day .....
Have done a hard reset ... no joy.
Ahh thought so.....I was going to bid and then it ended.
Hmmm.....i would of thought all the roms are the same
Really lovely piece of kit though .... using it anyway .... crash course in Italian ! LOL
ha ha ha....
Theres gotta be a way to change the language ...hopefully someone will know.

HTC Answer for wm6.1 p3600i

Were can i find it? and I want to know when will be wm6.1 upgrade, Its very expensive pda phone and it will be shame If there will be no upgrade. Thanks and good day Gal Levy
And the answer:
Thank you for your inquiry.
We here at HTC definitely understand your concern about having the latest software available for your device, in this case regarding a Windows Mobile 6.1 update. Currently there is no information available regarding a release date for Windows Mobile 6.1 on the HTC P3600i.
Gal, I hope we have answered your question in detail. Feel free to contact us again if you have any further questions.

Hey Gal
I did the same about 4 to 6 weeks ago and got a response from HTC Australia they they would not be supporting the P3600i with regard to any updates at all.
This is why I was so pleased that Olipro was able to come up with his Hard SPL.
At least now we have some opportunity to keep our "Expensive" non supported devices current for a little longer.
but still there is no stable wm6.1 rom for our devices...

in my opinion, there never exist a stable rom for any device.... every day is appering a new problem, a new solution is found.... when it come up a new radio/program version, it comes again new problem....
how to solve this.... make a backup every day, and put it where you can get it anywhere and anytime!!!

This is correct but not in rom that every night does hard reset without know why...
There is stable that you can work with the device but you have some problems... that is usualy
and there is "stable" without any bugs... That doesnt exist in any software in the world

Well so far I am pretty happy with the PDAViet 3.2 ROM. I am not sure if MMS is working properly or not...though that is no big deal for me. BT is working, battery life is really good as is memory...there don't appear to be any large memory leaks. I was concerned that it was switching off the screen on external power even after I set it to stay on but found there is a now a power saving feature for the battery and that needs to be set as well (it overrides the screen setting).
My only real gripe is that it uses Mozilla 4 as the browser and I haven't really figured it out yet. I might look at other browsers but I don't use it much so its no big deal.

Imate 9502: Dont Buy This Device. Till They Come Out With A Stable Rom

I have been wrestling with a 9502 for a 5 months now, and losing. There are many issues with the software that drive me nuts and which I'd love to fix:
1. The phone turns itself off from time to time. I know others have had this problem, but what is the fix?
2. The battery dies without warning, without beeping, after just a couple of days and little use. Naturally, I think it has turned itself off, but it's so flat that it won't turn on at all until at least a few minutes connected to the wall charger. How and where do I set battery status alarms?
3. Radio still loses signal and remains disconnected until device is 'woken up'.
4. Keyboard is still unresponsive, missing letters regularly making it almost unusable.
5. Graphics drivers would be appreciated.
6. Time in taskbar does not match system time.
Besides the very very bad customer support, they never ever answer you on any question neither by email or on the live support
everyone have to think twice before buying an expensive PPC from this company till they change thier policy and provide better support to thier products
now we are begging them daily on thier web site to provide a new release for the rom with fixed troubles with old one OR at least to provide the base rom to allow people to repair it AND ALWAYS NO ANSWER
WHAT CAN WE DO WITH THEM ????
Sounds to me more hardware issues than software. I have had the same device for four to five months and I have not had any of the issues you mentioned. And, I found the ROM very very stable.
I have owned more than 15 devices in the past 2 years, including the latest Samsung i900 Omnia, HTC TyTN II, Dopod 838pro, Dopod m700, O2 Graphite ... etc. so I have fair comparisons.

15 devices? wow. that made me feel good to read this that im not alone, although I have only owned 5 devices in the last 12 months, so i feel like an amateur compared to you.... and NONE of them are really what I want, which is a device that is as responsive and easy to use as my treo 650 which 9after a hacked rom) was the best device in its day.
I find the ROM stable (in that it doesn't crash) but these are all very common issues with the handset, most of which you do have, you just probably have put down to no network coverage or user errors. I have owned many, many WM devices and aside from the Blue Angel, this is the least usable one so far.
Radio is unacceptable. Signal is weak, and there is a universal bug in the ROM where it won't search for signal until awoken so if you lose it, you're not connected all day. 50% of the time I am uncontactable because of the poor radio. This makes the device unusable. Wifi signal strength on full power is also lower than any HTC device on power saver mode. This could be down to the positioning of the antenna.
Keyboard is also a ROM bug. Everyone has it, but it's only noticable if you type at a reasonable speed.
Graphics drivers are terrible.
System time is a universal bug. I only notice because I have a large today time plugin that shows the correct time and it often differs. Bug isn't the end of the world, but sometimes messes up text message orders.
Turning off is a software issue. I know because I had the problem and I-Mate fixed it by updating the firmware. I think it depended on which version your 9502 was shipped with. Mine was an early one.
Battery sounds like a hardware issue. Have you been charging using a Motorola or Sat-Nav charger or something? I know these often destroy batteries.
Official WM6.1 v1.77 ROM released by i-mate !!!
Look here ! It's fast and stable. 10MB more RAM than v1.73 (the leaked ROM) available afer a SR...

Hi Mark,
As far as I know, all 9502 devices are released unlocked by i-mate. You see, the ROM you dowload from i-mate.com is not related to Telstra at all.
Well, I live in Brazil, and although I'm not quite sure where my 9502 came from, it is flashed with their ROM, and it works fine with my local carrier.
As always, I might be wrong, though...
Cheers!

9502 in aussie
i have downloaded the new rom, it has no telstra screen, works fine.you need to ceate account with imate, download rom for 9502, active sync with pc, run update, within 10 min up & running. as always backup info first.
Ohh excellent - i ran the update from the most recent rapidshare on this website.
Worked a treat - now accepts all sim cards. Would not show my Vodafone card before.
Any chance someone can upload the LATEST firmware on rapidshare ??
im not signing up to anything with imate - or registering my product. id prefer my help from forums.

If you decide not to sign up & register your device, you won't be able to use i-mate's Secure i-Q, a very useful feature, IMHO.
Through it you would be able to lock your device up, make it start a potent audible alarm, or even wipe all your PIM data off from it, either from your PC or any other internet enabled device, in case it is lost or stolen. I have already given it a try, and it works a treat.
It's your decision, though...
Cheers!
