Bluetooth Update (Yet Another!) - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Mates, sorry for another question on this topic, I'm a very newbie and I couldn't orieent in this mess...
I Have an I-mate (still not able to understand whether it's an Andes or Alpine... BTW, what's the difference?)
I tried to connect via bluetooth both to the car handset and to a GPS receiver, but other than bonding the device, no connection was started.
I realize I have to upgrade something, and being extremely prudent in doing so.
I read in some place I need to upgrade to WM5, some other post referring to update Bluetooth but referring to many different stacks.
- Rom Version 1.66.00WWE
- ROM date 02/20/04
- Radio Version 1.1.10
- Protocol Version 1337.18
- ExtROM version 1.66.131
- Microsoft PowerPC V 4.20.0 (build 13252)
- Processor Intel PXA 263
Any help and pointer to files and instruction how to upgrade would be extremely appreciated

What do you think about this updating strategy?

Hi guys,
I'd like your opinion on this one...!
I bought a fresh SX66 (Details below) from Cingular.
What do you think about the follwing:
1 - I download the official firmware update from the Siemens website.
2 - I extract the files and replace the Radio ROM with the 1.13 Converted Type I file.
3 - I flash the unit.
Seems like a logical thing to me.
Is it? Or will I run into any problems that you suspect?
Thanks for your advice. I'll certainly read this thread before I go for it!

MDA3 Instability

Hi Guys
well, ive had my MDA 3 for a few months now and am pretty much very happy with it. As always though with new "toys" the honeymoon period is over and I'm starting to notice more n more bugs, things like the backlight randomly defaulting to almost off and occasional lock-ups etc.
Now, being in the IT industry I know the first step to solving an issue(s) is to patch up to the latest drivers/OS fixes etc. With this in mind and the specs below, can I? Should I? Would I even want to?

basic questions about rom, extrom, protocol and radio

Hello
I had a few questiosn regarding the rom version, radio version, protocol version and extROM version
does the Radio version contain the UMTS & GPRS radio acccess stuff which would mean that it contains the umts/gprs protocols, in that case what does the protocol version contain.
i guess the rom version contains the updated version of windows mobile 5.0 with new bells and whistles thrown in , or the last windows os improved?
wha tis the extROM version?
os there any way to update the bluetooth & wifi functionality, would that be a part of the ROM version?
utms and even edge is a 100% different frequience thing
so a device cant with software be changed to support it more
then it can be changed to recieve tv or hdtv or alien radio broadcast
wm2005 for devices which was not made for wm2005 are leaked beta versions which will never be released because wm2005 devices use flash to save data not ram like wm2003 devices
the flash they have is slower
and the roms are not optimised
bluetooth is a part of the rom but ppl can use other bluetooth stacks if they start out with ms bluetooth stack they can change it to broadcoms
wifi is a mix of wifi drivers which depend of if wifi was a part of the device or a addon sdio card
plus the wifi access software which you yourself can upgrade
thanks for the reply
what does upgrading the radio version do?
and upgrading the protocol version do?
do the two upgrade the gsm functionality??
i have got the XDA Exec, does it use WM2005 or WM2003, i guess the windows CE 2003 is ce4.0 based and the windows mobile 2005 is ce5.0 based, correct?

My questions start here :
Is it a Himalaya or Alpine
I tried to figure it out my self by reading your forum. I'm new user indeed, i got this device from work and just getting into this stuff.
I don't want to hear from any1 how stupid I'm am because i posted it because it is not so simple as you think identify this device.
I found on your forum that Himalaya does support WiFi (b) , mine DOESN't , there is no such option WI-FI lan or anything like that except Bluetooth.
Second of all a Cover, a case looks exactly as Alpine pictured here :
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Alpine
the name of it is O2 XDA II instead of OTEK POCKET PC.
My plan is to Upgrade a OS to the latest possible (english).
But before I start making anychanges I'd like you to help me with identity of this device.
THanks in advance.
Regards,
Mariusz
