Hello,
I have an MDA Vario II on T-Mobile UK which I bought less than one month ago. I can see that HTC have released an official WM6 upgrade for the phone but I cannot find an official upgrade on T-Mobiles UK site.
Can I use the official HTC WM6 ROM Update Utility and get my phone to WM6? If so when I boot my phone up into WM6 for the first time what must I do to get my GPRS settings etc. back on? Just use the online T-Mobile service which send s them?
I know it sounds like a n00bish question, but I've just got this phone and don't fancy bricking it just yet!
Any links to additional downloads, resources etc. would be well received.
Thanks everyone
Anyone able offer advice? I've done a lot of reading about this on the XDA-Developers site but I'm still in the dark about whether or not something might refuse to work after flashing or how to best avoid the dreaded bricking.
Thanks again

I am planning to get a XDAIIs in a very short time coz I will be travelling overseas 1 week later.
Because of that I need to unlock my XDAIIs......anyone tried to approach O2 and get his IIs unlocked (for a fee or whatever)?

Seems XDA II can be "unblock", how about IIs?
Thanks everyone!
PS: I can't see MDA III from T-Mobile UK on its website, or in shop few days ago, is it really released in UK? If it is unlockable for 15pounds I am happy to pay for it, but I like the black colour of IIs more.
Thanks again!
Hi all, newbie to the forum here.
I too like the black casing of the XDA IIs as opposed to the MDA III, PDA2k, etc. and would like to know if it's possible to unlock this phone.
I'd also like to know if, once unlocked, it's possible to put a different ROM on the device, like the imate PDA2k ROM or the UK MDA III ROM.
In reading through the forum, it seems that there's not much information about the XDA IIs yet, but any information that can be provided would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Hi All
I've been looking at getting a Qtek 9090 for a while now and I have seen lots of postings talking about the t-mobile mda iii supporting blackberry etc and maybe the odd posting where someone in the UK has got a xda2s or 9090 to do it using a particular rom.
Can anyone say that they have witnessed a 9090 with ANY rom on it that supports blackberry in the UK with Vodafone?
I'm really keen to get this going as it should be my ultimate device!
Thanks
Will.
Blackberry support has to be implemented at the provider end, as well as with the client software. Does Vodafone have Blackberrys?
Chris
Vodafone UK supports both Blackberry Internet Service (formerly Blackberry Web Client) and Blackberry Entreprise Server.
For BIS pricing Check Vodafone Blackberry Price Plan
As for the Blue Angel software, T-Mobile's Germany ROM supports the Blackberry Connect. Confirmation can be found here.
For a list of supported devices check Blackberry Connect. Scroll down to the paragraph that says Available Operating Systems and Devices.
Hope this helps.
I'm using Blackberry from T-Mobile UK. Using the ROM supplied by T-Mo UK Customer Services. It only works with their radio ROM, which means no radio upgrades possible. Push emails are great, but this version doesn't seem to be able to handle attachments (larger than a few kb).
Ok, thats all fine - we already have a vodafone BES server etc using standard blackberry handhelds and also nokia 6810 mobiles.
The real question though is - although t-mobile have got the MDA iii working with blackberry abroad (and with their radio rom) - is it possible to install their radio/roms etc onto the 9090 successfully?
I need to get the device (whatever I get) sim-free, and I am having trouble finding an mda iii sim-free in the uk...
Thanks
Will.
The T-Mobile ROM is available on this site:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
The BlueAngel is available SIM free from eXpansys.com and I got mine considerably cheaper from justtelecoms.com and it comes with the BB ROM already installed.
JT also do it on 1 year and 2 year contracts
Ok, thanks for that.
http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=QTEK_9090 is what I've been looking at getting
Can I presume that it is perfectly possible to install the t-mobile roms onto a qtek 9090 and then unlock to any network (as I'd need to use my voda sim)
Thanks
Will.
I beleive the Q9090 from expansys is already unlocked and yes, you can install any rom.
The JustTelecomms option comes with the correct rom already installed and they will sell it sim free for £330 and unlock it for only £15 or you can use the free unlock tool available here on xda-developers.
Can we all assume it will work? Yes.
Can we guarantee it will work? No.
I have bought the XDA IIs on this assumption. Due to lack of time the device is still in its box.
In the meantime I am still using my Blackberry 7230 but soon I will get my hands dirty and start playing with the XDA. If you're willing to wait a week or two then I'll let you know of the results.
I called justmobile and they don't take credit cards!!
Any other suggestions?
Hello,
I'm a newbie to this forum. Yes, before you all say anything I know they'r the same thing, packaged differently.
Since I'm in Canada, I'll be paying full price for either of those two, unlocked ofcourse. Was wondering if there are any pros/cons to either those two and which one would you all recommend?
Thanks
With Artemis you should have HTC patches and upgrades, with branded devices you may wait longer (for O2, Orange... software releases). HTC officially announced WM6 ROM for Artemis and help for other brands if they will decide to buy WM6 license, but you don't know if they will...
Will O2 be offering a WM6 upgrade? Someone just posted that O2 will not be offering an update. I'm wondering if I shud get O2 or not. I really like the Orbit, but now im confused.
O2 havo no plans to upgrade for now, but they don't say no for ever - so we don't really know...
I've ordered HTC P3300 only because everything seems confirmed for it, plus I'm getting it with all North American maps. Will let you guys know when I recieve it in a few days.
Hi guys, great forum. I have a v1605 on contract with Vodafone UK and I am told that it belongs to Hermes / TyTn family from HTC.
I wanted to know if there was a WM6 upgrade for this model as the guys at HTC Europe were not ready to talk about any network centric phones though their own upgrade is coming around end-July.
Actually I wanted to upgrade my handset to the successor of TyTn which I believe is Kaiser, but nobody at Vodafone is ready to talk about it.
Any help in this area will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi by any chance did you manage to local and install WM6 on your V1605 as I'm trying to find a ROM upgrade of WM6 but no luck. Can any help me with this...?
Hi,
I wondered if anyone could clear up my problem...
I have read a lot of threads on different forums about WM6. There's very little information about WM6 upgrades with the PDA I have - the O2 XDA Mini S.
I'm looking to upgrade to WM6, and cannot find any way to do so. I've found T-Mobile offering an upgrade service to their customers, but not O2.
I'm not after any kind of cracked, illegal copy, I just want to know if O2 offer the same service?
Is it that it hasn't been released for this PDA model? Or the service is just not available?
I just want a way to get it! lol
Please help me out!
Thanks

There is no official WM6 out there for your device (HTC Wizard) not from T-Mo, nor from O2, nor from any other operator; so if you don't want to experiment with cooked/leaked roms, you are unfortunatelly out of luck.
