Having just upgraded to the new imate ROM, I'm not sure what to do now. I have the mda-pro and am with T-Mobile, but going on the version numbers the T-Mobile ROM seems to be a downgrade.
Anyone trying the new ROM please share your experiences and advice.
Cheers,
Phil
Never mind...
I have downloaded the file and unpacked it, guess what :
All the files inside are from 2005, so we have an ancient ROM here. I hate t-MOBILE those guys are as usual with their heads up their bottoms.
If you have upgraded to the jasjar version do not under any circumstances upgrade to this version.
It does not contain AKU2 and as suspected is just the old German Tmobile version.
Just ran it on my mda pro....complete waste of time. Now need to re-upgrade to the Jasjar version.
Thanks.
This is the original t-mobile uk mda pro firmware not upgrad
See the comment and date
"This version is the first production release of the MDA Pro."
I check this link regularly for new files , originally the site claimed jan 06, but nothing yet.
Hoping and praying aku 2 and a2dp will be included hence the longer wait than other countries t-mobile isp's.

NO it is an update, mouse over the download, it's not a particularily new update, but it's much newer than the original ship rom from TMUK.
It's just that they haven't updated the text yet.
hanhha2000!
Thanx for the warning, and I am sorry you have to reflash your device
The Ext.ROM has a CAB file that says "TMo Streaming". Do you think its for A2DP?
Also, Asukal posted in another thread that this ROM does infact have A2DP and made screenshots to prove it. What do you guys think?
Can someone upload the Extended ROM to the FTP so we can try the Streaming cab file?
This is the file i am talking about:
Extended_ROM\TMO_Streaming_0729_Signed.CAB
hanhha2000!
If you did not reflash yourdevice with the JJ ROM can you let us all know what is the OS version on the "new" TMobile ROM

dunno about a2dp or how to go about finding out as i don't own a stereo headset...
FYI: windows mobile v5.0 OS 5.1.70 (Build 14409.1.1.2)
Rom version 1.20.32
Date 11/16/05
Radio 1.06.00
Protocol 42.40.p8
extrom 1.20.120
I have a hunch that the Streaming file mentioned above is the streaming media player that is on t-mo's rom.. looks like windows media player... and as yet i cant find a function for it.. It's only configured for rtsp:// files... whatever they are... may have been a idea to have a player that can pickup mms:// files .. eh... microsoft..
By the looks of things this is an old rom, the english version of the german rom released ages ago... I doubt it has any of the 'new' features.. but generally feels a lot more stable than the original shipped rom.
T-mo have updated there download page to reflect the new rom.. they even put a piccy of the mdapro up..
OS 5.1.70 (Build 14409.1.1.2) According to any source (like Microsoft mobile blog and Jason Landridge Blog) this version does not include neither AKU2 nor A2DP, so I am not sure what Asukal is showing us. Maybe it is something T-Mobile cooked on their own, a different BT stack ??

rtsp:// stands for Real Time Streaming Protocol
The advantage is that RTSP allows client to tell server to stop, play, pause etc. RTSP is a very popular broadcasting protocol for Real Player, for example.
Nice addition (if it works)!

Update ExtendedROM?

I am still running the original WM5 on imate. I just updated Radio to 1.51 and bootloader to 2.10 as discussed throughout the forum. I am planning to install Schaps 3.60a tomorrow. My question is: can I also update my ExtROM? currently I have 1.31.305.104 but I notice in the download section that all extendedroms are device and operator specific. Could I install the latest one from T-Mobile for example and not the one from imate? maybe it's better not to touch it?

Latest ROM for AT&T 8525

I lost my data due to a crash. I need the Official ROM for the AT&T 8525. They only posted it on the HTC web site for a little while (why, I don't know?)
It is:
ROM version 3.62.502.3
ROM date 10/11/07
Radio version 1.54.07.00
Protocol version 32.86u.7020.23H
I live in USA and have an English phone, AT&T is my carrier.
Would someone kindly point me to a download link for this if it's available somewhere?
I've searched here a lot, but can't discern between all the new third party ROMs. I haven't done any hacking to my AT&T, just need the original WM Pro 6 ROM.
thanks,
Charlie

Ok, I think this maybe the one you are looking for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316726&page=29
This thread does talk about the official HTC ROM update, but it doesn't have any working links. Several links there (like to HTC's web site) don't work. I remember HTC saying that the download of this new Windows Mobile 6 ROM for the 8525 would only be available until Feb. 08... Would someone have it somewhere that they could please upload somehow?
Many Thanks!
Edited: the next post has the factory 6.0 ATT rom..
I just needed this due to a hard reset from Faria-R32. I've flashed AT&T 3.62
http://download.america.htc.com/RUU...502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe with radio 1.54.07 as some have indicated that it's a good way to avoid the HR problem on the new WM6.1 roms that have been coming out.
Cheers
Htc/at&t 8525/wm6
If you're looking for the WM6 update from the HTC site, it's still posted.
Here are the instructions and update:
HTC/AT&T 8525/WM6.
Does anyone know if there's an official windows mobile 6.1 update for the at&t 8525 yet? I'm looking forward to upgrading, but I keep reading people are having issues with their phones locking up and the only way to fix it is to do a hard reset.

I KNOW that currently there ISN'T one, if that helps. I have no idea if there are any plans to release one on or after April Fools' day, though. I would like to know the answer to THAT question. Anyone????

Samsung i780 Official WM6.1 ROM Upgrade [Italy, Nordic, UK]

Has anyone tried the Official Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM Upgrade for the i780? It is found at thi link:
http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/i780/index.jsp
You can use "BVHF1" as the SGH-i780 Version. It also has a link for the samsung drivers for windows vista. Down below there is a button "View In Detail" beside [ Upgrade Instructions ], if you try to look at the screenshots, it says SHG-i780 6.1 OS Updater on the title bar.
According to some forums and reputable websites it is the official 6.1 upgrade for the i780 but the problem is it is only for Italy, Nordic and UK. I'm wondering if it is compatible with the asian versions of the i780. Is there a difference with the physical keyboard?
I guess it's not that important anymore since Windows Mobile 6.5 will be released sometime Q3/Q4 of this year. There are phones already manufactured for WM6.5 and pictures are already out in the internet. I'm not sure if it's legit but looks like they are. At least there's an official WM6.1 update for i780.
Wm6.1 upgrade
Hi
I tried this, but my version is DXHA1, its unbranded.
When io downloaded the software using your instrcution, and I ran it, it said incorrect version
Help
any idea when comes german version ?
Samsung i780 Official WM6.1 ROM
Ok, I called Samsung, its only for orange customers no one else
It is possible to flash Orange Rom
You have to Hex edit official rom with the country/operator specific code of your current rom. That way, when you are flashing Orange rom it will think that you have the future version of you current rom and it will not complaint.
Search forum. You may use Hxd (use this as a keyword for search) editor or another hex editor.
I used Orange rom for a while. It has improved battery life over V5X HH5 (EFN Rom) however no messenger and other preloaded goodies of v5x hh5.
BTW there is a newer (official) version than the orange rom. Just peek at newer threads.
alpusm
This is so lame
I bought mine unlocked off of expansys, and therefore the stupid update download tells me it's the wrong version. If I flash it with the Orange rom, will I have problems with sim locking or anything? I hope the installer doesn't have the same restrictions.
I can't believe I pay full price for a phone and get this sort of service.
No problem
You may flash with the Orange rom or never HL1 or HL2 rom. Updater is available here on forum for these roms. Like I said before you will need to hex edit rom files to be able to flash. Or, as an alternative, you may flash one of the "modded" versions of those roms (bin files) with mirage updater (mirage does not check any code), then update with the original updater because updater will think that you are upgrading from the same operatoır/country code.
BTW you wont have any problems with sim or device lock. Mine was a generic unbranded WWE rom and updated/tried all these roms and did now have any lock problems.
what version do i have
what does one mean by version? i have an unbranded one. are versions things like suppliers? tmobile o2 and stuff
cheers

I know this is old as heck but does this upgrade works for any Samsung i780? Or is it just for the Asian-Pacific i780? Thanks!
Hi all,
my version is i780jchb1 (south africa). Can I install the UK rom on it please??
My OS is in Danish so i tried the link and chose Nordic, then it wants me to put in the phone model, so i do that and then it takes me to the official samsung page (samsungmobile.com) where the only thing i can download is the manual and activesync for windows 2k/xp.

Now that WM6.5 is officially released..

..will we see ROMs for Hermes based on the release builds, seeing as these would probly be regarded as the accepted version?
The screenshots I've seen of the "release" (AT&T's HTC Pure and HTC Tilt 2) version show the "old style" 6.5 without the new bottom bar and shorter top bar, etc.
windows phone
windows phone to be released on 06 oct 2009
The windows Mobile 6.5 was today oficially launched here in Lisboa/Portugal in a 4 in one press conference. (presents were Microsoft, TMN (portuguese provider, Samsung and ZTE (chinese phone makers)) to launch some models with the "new" OS.
From Samsung we have the Omnia II i8000, 99,99 Euros and the Omnia Lite B7300, 49,99 euros with contract). not bad!!!
im curious to know the build number of the release roms, if anyone knows please post it here??
Do you have any name of ROM with function Marketplace? I installed some WM6.5 unofficial ROMs and Marketplace doesnt work - my friend have other device (Xperia) with WM6.5 ROMS and Marketplace download update CAB and it really works...

Marketplace works fine in my 23420 ROM. I just installed it and updated it and it works fine. I plan on including it from now on since its actually live.
mmm official builds will come as COM2 builds 218XX old style... the last 218XX builds unofficial... are very fast and stable no bugs at all... HTC HD2 and HTC Pure will be the first to have this new UI Official builds...
Of course when the builds are available or any has a device to dump surely we will do our best job to have that builds for our hermes...
Where can you download Marketplace?
