Newbie help...

Hey Guys,
I don't know if any of you gurus would find a moment to help me out... But I got an spv m5000 (orange's Universal) but just the phone and a usb cable. No software, earpiece etc. NOW, I'd like to put on the qtek9000 pocketpc software, is this available for free? Is this what you guys call a ROM? Basically, I wanna know if its safe to delete its present OS and try and install the qtek one... AND how do you do it...? Thanks a bunch! Lastly, is there a free voice recorder app?? Orange's doesn't come with one... so does the qtek come with one?
THANKS A BUNCH,
N. Madden

I think you shoud read this first, because it's a lot to explain:

welcome among us!

Hey the link has been great, but I'm still confused as to if its safe to try and flash the qtek rom.... not having any backup software...?

you may try to back-up your contacts and appointments to pc with activesync and then reinstall the rom and start from the scratch with new software or you may try a back-up software like sprite back-up or spb back-up...
I have updated my ROM many times without problems, but I have read most of the topics about it before doing that operation for the first time.
I'll suggest to try Helmi's or Indra's AKU 3.3 ROM with radio 1.13.00 or 1.14.10
Cheers!

Need Advice on Upgrading Plz help :)

Greetings! I am new here and I recently bought an xda exec here in china. Problem is, the exec was loaded with a chinese rom because it was intended for chinese users so i asked the seller to make it in english. It seemed they had a problem with changing the rom, Im not really sure coz i cant understand half of what theyre saying. After a long wait, I was given an exec with a dopod rom.
Now having a different rom from the supposed manufacturer's one, it seems my unit has a few errors, for example im frequently having a sddaemon (which i found out has something to do with the contacts list) and sddialer (which i think has something to do with voice dialing) errors. Another thing I have a problem with is, the boot screen, since it was loaded with a dopod rom, it says "dopod enjoy mobility" at the boot screen. I feel kinda uneasy with it, simply put, i dont like it.
Also, I think my problems would be solved by flashing a different rom, but im not sure what to use tho. Actually, I want to use a 'proper' o2 rom because i like to have the boot screen back to o2. Yet, it seems everyone is suggesting the JasJar rom, do you think i should use the JasJar rom? If so, How can i change the boot screen to the o2 one?
For anyone who can help, Advice on how to address my problems is very much appreciated. I tried searching the forums but i cant seem to get how the search function working. I humbly ask guidance and advice to my problems and a proper redirection is highly appreciated. thanks in advance!

Also, I'm also considering upgrading to WM6. Is it advisable to upgrade to WM6?

WM6 has a better looking than WM5, and most of the software are newer.
If you want stable, you can use WM5, most of the new ROM are all for the WM6, I am also a user in China, I am now using WM6 with a chinese language supporting package.

How unstable is wm6? Does wm6 have features or anything to offset the instability?
@XingYun: are you using an english rom with chinese text support or is your rom purely chinese? Im thinking of copying your setup, would you advise it?
BTW, my Device information says the ff:
ROM version: 1.30.111 WWE
ROM date: 04/06/06
Radio Version: 1.04.02
Protocol Version: 42.37.P8
ExtROM version: 1.13.188 WWE
Any more help and advice is very welcome

Later builds of WM6 for Universal isn't really unstable. It's actually better. There's only one problem. NO VIDEO CALL.
You can get the latest WM5 ROM here:

Use the Search facility... It really helps.

Ok, ive decided to upgrade to wm6. Since I want to have an o2 boot screen, should i use the o2 rom from the jwright link? Will it be compatible with my unit even tho I am running a dopod rom? All I need to do is follow the directions from the wiki :

Am I correct? Sorry for sounding like a n00b, but I'm quite scared of making a mistake, so I want to be extra sure and extra careful. Advice and help is appreciated. thx.

I am using a English ROM with Chinese language support, and YouYuan text format, my machine infomation is like this:
ROM version: 2.05.00 WWE
ROM date: 04/09/07
Radio version:1.15.00
This is the ROM I am using:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=305512

Finally upgraded with Jwright wm6 rom, works fine now, thx everyone.

Hi, HProvider
Could you tell me where did you find the chinese language support package?
Mine does not work well with the Jwright ROM.
Thanks!

Could I possibly get some help?

Hello. Sorry if this is in the wrong area, but I am new to flashing roms, and I don't know who to ask for help. I have an audiovox ppc4100 and all I want to do is upgrade it to windows mobile 5 or 6. Just something other than wm2003. I've downloaded numerous wm6 and wm5 images from this site (They are extremely cool looking from the screenshots I've seen!) but I cannot seem to get any of them to work. I am running windows vista, so activesync isn't available. Its the windows mobile device center. It would just be easiest if I could rom upgrade from my 2gb sd card. Is there anyone who can help me either cook a wm5 or wm6 rom for my ppc4100 or give me some pointers on how to do this (remember, I'm a newbie!) I would really appreciate anyone's help. Thanks so much!

roms are custom made for devices only a rom which is made for that type of hardware setup will do you any good

because the web is Russian

here you are (add www in front of the address), but it´s the newer version WM 6.5 23518 for Acer N311. It´s the russian version, so if you can´t read their pages (4PDA) I don´t think you will be able to operate the system...but, it´s your choice ;-)
anyway we will have to wait further for translation...

Thank you very much

Test
Hi guys,
Did someone test it? Any updates?
Thanks

Hi, tested WM6.5 ROM 23518 release date 2010/5/02..there is no newer since this date. Tested on Acer N311, it´s slower than WM6.1 Football Edition and also uses more memory...that influenced mainly using the PDA as GPS navigator (iGO8 navigation software had serious problem caused by insuficient memory space). I´m going to upgrade my PDA to 128MB RAM and then try again. =) have a nice weekend!

Trying to install WM 6.5 on my Acer n300
Hi Guys,
I know this thread is quite old, but hopefully someone will answer me.
I'm trying to upgrade my Acer n300 (WM 5.1.476 (Build 15704.3.5.0) to
WM 6.5.
I've downloaded potatoheads file (thanks), but am stumped as to what to do next.
I'm quite technical, but am a complete noob when it comes to flashing mobile devices.
Any help appreciated.
Rom version is 1.00.24
firmware version is 2.6
Bootloader version is 1.24
Thanks
John (aka Teleportist)

Update.
Managed to flash my N300 with the two files by putting them on my SD card and performing a hard reset.
Had some initial problems with the Wi-Fi card not displaying its MAC address, but that seemed to clear itself.
Also installed SPB Mobile Shell. All-in-all this has given my n300 a new lease of life.
Thanks for making these files available.

will try this tonight
Went through my old things and found my acer n311. Having bought it and used it for about 6 months, it then got put in a box and never seen again after getting a blackberry and a sat nav.
Going to try this ROM tonight and carry on searching for a good resource to let me know how I can get the most out of this device. Otherwise ill end up just puting it on eBay. Cheers

Hi, I know this thread is more dead than myself but, anyone has the build 28217? Or something near it?.
I have the only one I could find (aka the one is uploaded on mediafire on this thread) but I have a problem with the bluetooth and some stuff.
If anyone could just search on their hard drive for it, like searching n311 or something, would be helpful. Thanks

Hi, there, I just found out that acer n311 is the good old fashioned pda that has 64mb of ram. I seriously recommend you to stay away from wm6.5 altogether unless you have something like htc hd2(and even thete I did install wm6.1) and instead source out a good custom wm 6.1 rom which does everything that wm6.5 does, but faster, because 6.5 is just a bloated wm 6.1.
I had wm6.5 once on my hx4700 that I still use, the start menu alone makes the os use 10mb more ram than wm6.1, so yeah just get rid of it. Besides wm is the best when it tries to be wm not iPhone.

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
