Imate / Dopod 900 / Universal in Australia

Hi,
I recently bought a Dopod 900 from Taiwan and having read the entire upgrade forum I am still slightly unsure about the best way to switch to English. From my reading I see that O2 has issues with the extended ROM (although I'm unclear what extended ROM really means, my best guess so far is that its preloaded applications) and that the Jasjar suffers from system hangs and performance (speed).
I understand that there are two options readily available to me;
1) Use the O2 ROM located at http://www.my-xda.com/xdaexec_soft.html (since I'm in Australia I just copied their sample phone number into their form to continue on from page 2).
2) Or use the JasJar ROM located at ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/../Uploads/Universal/Shipped ROM/JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10301/
And if I'm correct, unzip and copy the modified ROM installer (located at ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/../BlueAngel/Tools/) into the folder containing the un-zipped contents of the ROM archive and use MaUpgradeUt_noID to perform the ROM upgrade.
However, I've noticed in the signatures that people have all sorts of different versions of;
a) The OS ROM
b) The extended ROM
c) The radio ROM
I've found out that my Dopod has;
CE Image: 1.13.36
Ext Image: 1.13.134
Radio: 1.04.02
And that the Jasjar ROM image (JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10301 - which has a filename of JASJAR WWE 11353 137 10402) located on this site is;
CE Image: 1.13.53
Ext Image: 1.13.137
Radio: 1.04.02
I guess the following questions are really targeted towards Australians, since the Jasjar has been available now for a short time and there would be some users downunder, I would like to know;
1) what versions are they running?
2) what provider/plan they are using?
3) what applications are they using (skype, pdf reader etc).
(I noticed on my Dopod, which still has the chinese OS on it, it is installed with KKBox, Pocket MSN, ClearVue PDF, Zip, and Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc).
I do not know what KKBox is. And what's funny is that with the Voice Commander, I happen to know that "saigen" is see-you-later in madarin which stops the Voice Commander application. However I'm not too keen on learning madarin just to run my PDA.
So before I take the plunge and convert to English I would like to get some feedback from locals as to what they are running.
One last point, I got quoted from PDA King in Taiwan (I used a phone card to call) NT$1200 to switch my PDA to English. When I asked them about getting a copy of the OS on CDROM for furture restores I was advised they don't use a CDROM before its burned onto the ROMs. I think they are having me on, considering the talk in these forums, but I'm curious if anyone in Taiwan has had an english conversion done for them by a retailer?

Hi,
I found a Dopod site at www.dopodasia.com that stated "In addition, new ROM can be downloaded in “Member” section if you subscribed as a Dopod member"
The membership registration page is located at http://210.64.124.195/Dopod_en/member/right.aspx
Unforuntately the registration page is rejecting my serial number, I'm at this moment calling them for help to login. In the meantime, has anyone sucessfully logged on, and what ROMs are available?
Regards
Michael

Hi,
The Dopod Asia site seems to have a good FAQ for the Dopod 900
http://210.64.124.195/Dopod/Singapore/En/Support/FAQ/3Gsubnote/?sm=Left1_pro_9_1_1

Michael,
Did you manage to register on the Dopod site? My Serial # was accepted but the next page with more detail got stuck on the Account field right after Nickname field. Any idea what you need to enter there?
Thanks for any help yo umight be able to provide. Regards

Hi,
Not yet, we caught them at the end of the business day. They advised us they would reply via email, but we're gunna call again tommorrow morning as a little reminder.
Are you able to paste a screen shot of the next page, that way I can see what's coming up and maybe ask them direct what they need (save me trying to work it out).
Michael

Hi,
I got in, this is what I did...
1) Selected "have not yet purchased" - this takes me directly to the account details page and bypasses the request for a valid serial number.
2) I thought "Account" was something to do with your provider, it isn't it is the name you want to call your membership account. You use the "account" name and "password" to login. So account can be anything.
3) Then you get sent an email confirmation with an activation link, just click the link and login.
I'm in at the moment the only thing I can see that can be downloaded is the user's manual, the "home page" in the member's area says...
Dear Client:
Thank you for purchasing Dopod products. To get the most enjoyment out of the products, we continue to cooperate with domestic and international companies to deliver updated services and downloadable programs for you.
Please click and download the program according to the description of Games or Application Programs. We will constantly provide work-related, modern living, games and other application programs for you. Thank you for your continuing feedback to us!
Dopod International Corp.
...I think I will still call them and ask them about where the ROMs can be downloaded from as stated in this quote, "In addition, new ROM can be downloaded in “Member” section if you subscribed as a Dopod member." and where the applications and games reside (or a timeline of when they are due).
Regards
Michael

First one kkbox is music box same as ipod,only can use in Taiwan others
place are useless.
2nd I don't think PDA king in Taiwan can give you any copy of ROM ,
because Dopod don't have any English ROM , they just flush I-mate
or O2 ROM for you,you can get ROM from here as you mention
before.
3th Dopod Taiwan didn't post any ROM upgrade for Dopod 900, I will try
to login Dopod Asia and post here.

Hi,
I've recieved the following response from Dopod Singapore (www.dopodasia.com). By the way I'm hoping that since the Singapore branch of Dopod is english speaking, that they will have an english version of the Dopod ROM.
Has anyone tried to register as a member with the other dopod sites?
Dear Sir:
1) Is there any difference in between logging in as a member who has purchased to one that has not?
A member who has purchased will see all the contents.
2) Where in the member area can I download the ROMs, which were referred to in this quote, "In addition, new ROM can be downloaded in “Member” section if you subscribed as a Dopod member.", located under the title trouble shooting on page, http://210.64.124.195/Dopod/Singapore/En/Support
Currently we don’t have any new ROMs for Dopod 838 and 900. if we release a ROM code, you will see it.
3) Where in the member area can I download the applications and games, which were referred to in this quote, "Please click and download the program according to the description of Games or Application Programs." located on the member home page, on page, http://210.64.124.195/Dopod_en/default.aspx
We will keep putting applications, games and ROM codes on our web site, if there any news will send a e-mail to u.

Upgrade
I was reading your post and started to d/l the upgrade from the link you provided to the O2 website. The site requested my cell number and the imei number. I have unlocked this phone and am in the US. Is this going to be a problem or does O2 not care about who the carrier is???

I have uploaded to the FTP server.

Do any of you guys can guide me
Where to find a ROM that'll work on my PPC? Whether WM2003 or WM5
List me what's to be done after getting ROM?

Speed: 206 Mhz
Current ROM: 3.20.03 ENG
Rom Date: 07/22/03

O2 official ROM for EXEC, Xda Exec Upgrade v1.30.162.exe

Hi, everyone,
I have tried to update my EXEC to WM6.0, I have tried a lot of different ROM released in the forum, it were good experiences , but none of them appear to stable, finally, I flashed my EXEC back to O2 official ROM,
when I flash it , I extracted all of the files out to a folder , replace the file radio.nbf with the latest version 1.15 (can be found in the forum), it will make the phone appear to grasp new signal quicker while you roaming between cell stations. then run ROMUpgradeUt.exe to finish the upgrading process
now it is really difficult to find the rom----Xda Exec Upgrade v1.30.162.exe , it took me 10 hours to download it from emule (only 2 available source), I have tried to upload it to ftp server of the forum, but failed
I have just uploaded to rapidshare, if anyone can download it and put it onto the ftp server, it will save a lot of friends some time
http://rapidshare.com/files/78099772/Xda_Exec_Upgrade_v1.30.162.exe.html

Thanks so much!But what time is this ROM realesed?And is it newest?

This ROM was released long time ago... Try the ROM for Tmobile 2.00.41(WM5). It's so great: rapid, stable and more ram (after soft-reset, we have >30Mb ram). Good luck guys
