you are just out of luck i had the rom update for the h3800 and h3900 but were all lost last week.
you can try looking for then in torrent sites but just watch out do it at your own risk

hehe...guess ia m out of luck. hope other members have it and hopefully, still have it handy. thanks sir!

I would be happy to supply you with the H3950 PPC2003 upgrade file. In exchange I am trying and failing to find a version of the H3850 PPC2003 upgrade file.

A year late, but I have a H3870 ppc 2003 upgrade.exe ..I'm looking for H3950 ppc 2003 upgrade .
So if interested ...we can do a trade if still require one...or any one ?
Nb..brought my vintage 3800 and 3900 devices to life again after replacing the battery cell with a Mr Messy Powerbank 3.7 battery with a bit of soldering involved as you need to keep the main battery cct board.

Yes you can upgrade to WM2003 but about the BT this is a Hardware issue thus you cannot get an BT SD because it won't work the unit does not support SD/IO.
I recommend from you do not touch the "RSU" leave it as its .

Windows 2003 SE upgrade for ipaq h3800 still available?
My pain:
Upgraded several years back, but ipaq died. Bought a new battery, but can't find old upgrade CD. I don't believe I'll be able to install the daylight savings correction until I get to 2003 SE.
My hope:
Anyone have the upgrade from Windows 2003 to the second edition for my old Compaq ipaq 3835?
Thank you!

Take this:
1. update instruction
2. wm2003se update files
After update necessarily remove \Windows\Startup\bttray.lnk

upgrading ppc2003 to wm5
I just did this upgrade yesturday, I had my 4700, I bought WM5 on eBay, I follow instructions on it and because I didn’t look at Vista specials, I got my Ipaq totally off. It got stack on loading, showing only USB and version 1.01 gray screen.
Well, I download bootloader on my PC with windows XP, start it, select file to load in (CEOS_UPG) and after cca 10 min. I can enjoy my hp4700 again with new WM5. Now I know, that there is no problem with this tool to go back to WM5, I am going to try WM6, I will try to use install from vista and I will see. Going to try WM6_4700_RELEASE4.

PocketPC 2003

Can anyone help me find PocketPC 2003? My PDA (not smartphone) has 2002 and I would like upgrade to 2003. Anyone with a link or copy of PocketPC 2003..????? Thanks
what pda do you have?
I have an HP Ipaq 5450. I have called HP, and they confirmed it can be upgraded to Windows PocketPC 2003. They said any copy will work, and I can download any needed drivers for it from their website.
Is there a reason I can get no information regarding PocketPC 2003? Is it becasue it's so old? Is it because I am using HP Ipaq 5450? Is it because no one cares? Is it becasue it doesn't exist anymore? I have posted this request several times over the last several days, and have gotten NO information to resolving my issue. Please, point me and I will gladly follow.
Thanks

Rom Upgrade Question HP IPAQ

Hello
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post.
I have a HP IPAQ 2755 HX running Windows Mobile 2003 SE without problem. I have been searching through the internet trying to see if its a good idea to upgrade to WM5 or WM6. I am not sure if its even possible as I have seen some posts that WM5 runs with degradation. Can I upgrade to WM6?
Can I even find a download for Wm5/WM6? I am still gathering information and details and not clear the process to upgrade the ROM.
Any information / advice would be greatly appreciated.
If I do upgrade the ROM and there is problems how easy is it to fallback the original ROM? Could it damage the unit?
Tks/Dave
Hi Everyone
Where can I still get Windows Mobile 5? MS advised they dont have it available anymore
