AT&T SX56 w/XDA-dev Special Edition ROM v1.2 HOW UPGRADE

I have an AT&T Siemens SX56. I used the XDA-developers Special Edition ROM v1.2 to get my SIM Lock disabled. I have T-Mobile service and my T-Mobile SIM now works, hoooray!
However!, The version of Pocket PC on this ROM is not to my liking.
I went to siemens site and they offer the latest Windows Mobile 2003 for my device, however I can't use it becuase my ROM versions don't match.
IS there any way I can upgrade the latest Windows mobile 2003? What would be the recommended method?
My current SX56 info:
Rom Version: 3.17.03 ENG
Radio Version: A.33.02
Protocol Version: 1.3.3
Model No. says: PW10a1 (even though it says on the back PW10b1)
MS Pocket PC 3.0.12039 (build 11178)
Any help or advice would be appreciated. I scared to do anything for fear that using a ROM kitchen might toast my ROM
ANY advice on this would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
Brock

the rear sticker is THE right one .. your device is B and it works on 900/1900 MHz.
As long you don't touch the RSU part and you are using the SD method for ROM flashing, there is almost nothing can go wrong for using the kitchen for ROM cooking. I can't remember how many times I flashed my ROM
You can get more details by reading through this forum carefully.
Good luck

Hmm... So what version of ROM on this ROM kitchen website would be most recommended: http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/ ?
Also is there a reason why you are only allowed 3620kb of ROM space? I thought my device had 32MB?
All I would have to do is create the ROM on that site save it as a .exe and then it would do everything else?
Thank you for the quick reply!

I forgot to mention that I have the Wallaby Boot loader version 5.22, if that makes any difference.
I also was wondering if the newer radio versions make any difference on reception/clarity/availablity of a signal????
Another thing I was wondering about is... How come on this ROM kitchen website http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/ I have to e-mail information and await instuctions to proceed? Does he have to give me a special number that is generated to make the ROM I downloaded work w/ my IMEI or device?? Or is that totally not right???
Thanks again,

OS/ROM upgrade on XDA II

Hi there,
Firstly, let me say there's a bucket load of info in these forums - phew!
But on browsing, it seems there's an assumed level of knowledge on upgrading devices and I have no idea where to start.
I'm in Australia, have an XDA II on the Optus network (unlocked), device info:
ROM: 1.66.00WWE
ROM DATE: 02/20/04
RADIO: 1.08.00
PROTOCOL: 1337.18
EXTROM: 1.66.165
I'd like to upgrade to the latest Windows Mobile (2003 SE I think) but have no clue as to where to get the software, and what steps I need to take.
There's probably a guide or something somewhere here but I'm having troubles finding it and was wondering if there's a place for newbies to XDA modifications to go to try and learn what's involved.
Hoping someone could please assist me.
Thanks,
Pete

Is the 2003SE version compatible with the PPC6600 from Sprint? If so where can I find an upgrade? More importantly could someone direct me to a thread that explains the difference between 2K3 and the SE version?
Thank you all for your insight, this site rocks!!

yeah it's compatible with 2003SE because it's the rom it comes with
at least thats what this page say

XDA 1 step by step network unlock for computer dummy?

Hi All
I am new to this forum, I would like some help if at all possible with an xda 1. It is locked to 02 and needs something called a sid code?, I have read some posts on this forum and they do offer ways to unlock the code. But as I am very new to computers and also ppc's I am finding it hard to understand what I need to do, if anyone could send me simple to follow step by step instructions for a computer dummy that would be great. From the forums that I have read I am very worried that I will make my ppc un-useable, wipe it clean or make it die totally. Can anyone offer any help at all.
Information that is on the xda 1,
Rom version: 3.17.03 ENG
Rom date: 05/15/03
Radio version: 4.20.00
Protocal Version: 32S54
Model No: PW10A1
Best regards, atmitch

Should be aesy in your case....
1. Download http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/XDAunlock.exe
2. Copy file to your xda
3. Run the xdaunlock file on your xda.
This should be all to unlock it.....

okay ive never updated my xda mini s before so could you possibly be able to tell me where to click and stuff :S, that would help alot thanks

I've never flashed an older device and having a quick read, for yours it looks like it can be tricky
Here is a step-by-step procedure for flashing:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Wizard_Windows_Mobile_6_for_newbies#Procedure
Read through that carefully, be sure you know what you're doing before trying anything. or you may brick (make it un-usable) your device

trying it now its very confusing :S, thanks though.

david, once i have flashed my phone, where can i find the 6.1 and 6.5 ROM updates to make it windows mobile 6.1 or 6.5 i think its this site " http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=492532 " can you check it for me please, thanks.
