Im running the original rom version, 1.31.00 WWE, Radio Ver. 1.06.00, Protocol Ver. 1337.38, ExtROM Ver. 1.31.139 WWE on my XDA11s. I'm not bothered much about Blackberry (cos i dont really know much about it), so if everythings running ok on my pda is it really worth doing the upgrade? Any comments appreciated, thanx.
If it ain't broke - why fix it :wink:
I find it really amazing that out of the 83 views to my topic that there has been one reply, and that wasn't really much help to my enquiery, but can i thank you for taking the time to reply anyway. So i take it that none of the 83 viewers have bothered updating with he official software then??!!
Well, I did it and am kind of regretting it a bit now.
GPRS via Mobile Web seems a bit odd - managed to get my POP3 mail setup OK, but i'll be damned if I can get IE to work - always comes up with Page not Found dialogue box... never used to do this before.
Anyone got any ideas?
SW seems a bit faster, but until I can sort out this IE issue, I am not going to get too excited ... need my IE on the move!

My WM5 is slow even though I applied all the patches , I wish it was smooth like a nice babies bottom lol. WM5 also drains my battery faster, I have downgraded and upgraded 4 times so far and I am too lazy to go back to 1.40.00WM2003SE ROM, give me some advice!
upload the blackberry installation CAB
can anyone upload the blackberry cab that comes with this ext ROM here?
that all I need from this upgrade...
Cheers
I have been so fed up with my XDA11s running slowly since I bought it. I have done all the upgrades, even WM2005 and still it was crap so I have ordered an Exec to see if that is any better. Anyway, out of bordom, I decided to downgrade the 11s back to 2003. did this and still slow, then I noticed the new upgrade so I thought what the hell and installed it.
I have never seen my 11s run so fast! even when I installed all my usual apps it flies. strangely the BT seems to be working fine as well (I gave up on that a long time ago). I have even blown the dust off my BT headset and have started using it again. Makes me think I should'nt have bothered ordering the Exec!
I have also noticed a new Blackberry icon in setting > System. dont use it myself, but I notice a lot of people moaning for it.
Hello~ How ya doing ppl? Hope ya r all fine...
I have a PPC O2 XDA IIs and I just hope ya can help me with my problem... I just hope ya can forgive my ignorance about PPC... I bought the PPC with the latest O2 rom with windows mobile 2k3 SE, which I had a lot of problems with the auto hard reset thing... So several months ago I installed a random wm5 rom, that kept reseting by itself but never lost any data so I was happy with that because i didnt have 2 backup and restore all the time... Yesterday, I installed the Helmi Rom AKU 3.2 rom, which I really love this rom cuz made my PPC much faster and has a lot of new stuffs pretty usefull...
The problem I have is that my PPC keeps resetin by itself, even if I'm not using it... The rom works perfectly to me, but even though I dunno why my PPC keeps resettin by itself... I've tried searchin for months and found some answer that are no longer useful for me... Many ppl uninstalled the O2 connect and take out the connection.exe from the startup... But with this rom, I dont have O2 Connect neither I have the connection.exe...
Hope ya can help me, i've been tryin for months tryin to solve this without any luck and I cant buy another model, because in the country where I live they dont sell good PPC...
I really appreciate yar help and ill be lookin forward for yar answer...
Well, Im gonna keep searchin some answers... Thank you...
u havnt jammed anythin in the reset button have u ??? (stupid question i know but i did it got stylus tip stuck in and kept resetting itself)
No, it's not stuck... I rarely reset it by myself... I only did it when I upgraded the ROM... Even though, Im gonna check to be sure~
Thanx for yar answer... Im still searching but its kinda hard~ I really dunno wut 2 do~
Check your battery...if ti's not an original battery you may have this issue. I purchased an extended battery and used with my XDA IIs, worked fine for quite a while and then....boom hard reset...I thought it was the OS / SW / apps - changed all without success. Then after reading on here about issue people were having with non-original batteries I stopped used the extended...resulting in the issue resolving...check out the accessories forum for further info.
Thanx for yar answer... Even though, I have 2 original batteries so I don't think its an battery issue... But, I've been searching and finally found something different... Many ppl were having problems with the Resco Today Plugin, they uninstalled it and they said they made their PPC more stable...
I'm gonna try it, and somedays later I'll let ya know...
*I already uninstalled the Resco Today Plugin... So far, its working perfectly... Maybe it was the same problems were having some users who owns Axim and O2 XDA IIs... I'll let ya know, some days later if its already solved...
do u mean the o2 today plug in????? to get rid of it u can hard reset and set it to corporate and the code is 0506 even though im sure i saw this posted elsewhere......<.<
No, I meant Resco Today Plugin... I already upgraded to WM5, so the O2 Connect its gone...
Even though, I solved my problem... I don't have any resets at all~ Its the same thing with the AXIMs... The only thing ya have to do, is to disable any today plugin that see how much battery left ya have or any kind of stuffs that analize or check yar hardware...
I replaced the Resco Today Plugin with the SPB Pocket Plus, taking out the battery and memory bar...
hello everyone!
i am totally new to all this, just got my first smartphone (an "old" tmobile mdaIII). i palyed around with it a bit now, its really great! unfortuneatly i am running into several problems, eg. cannot connect to my wlan.
the thing is, i am a total noob with all this smartphones/handheld/pocketpc technics... so i figure, i will have to work my way thru. if you could help me a little, i would really be glad!
first of all, i would like to know if that phone could still have stored some kind of data on it? the battery was out for almost a year now, but maybe there are some files somewhere? how can i restore my phone to a totaly fresh status? is the hardwarereset the way to go?
of course i would like to update the software and stuff, i think the mda is still running windows 2003 and its rom is version GER 1.06 or something... (??)
do i have to get an USB2MDA cable for flashing roms and updating?
or can i do this via bluetooth or wifi?
if you have any other advice for a noob like me, i will gladly take it!
please dont be mad, if i have missed info on all this in the forums... i raed thru a lot now, but it is just getting darker and darker.....
any help is very much appriciated!
thx in advance!

HArd reset to restore your phone to fresh status.
Im getting very frustrated with this damn phone. Its a qwest ppc 6800 that i loaded with alltel softare. I installed .net framework compact 3.5 on it, and tried to install BAFSML but the damn thing wont work. It appears that it intsalls, maybe not i dont know. But it wont show up in the programs menu. I dont know what to do anymore. Ive searched and searched and cannot find a damn thing to help me. All i want to do is change the code to 000000 right now. I dont understand why nothing is working for this stupid thing. Any help would be great right now.
Guess no one knows..............
Hello,
I know this has been asked here before, I've done about 5-6 hours of bouncing around forums looking for answers, yet I still remain stuck and confused.
Heck Jailbreaking my old 3GS seemed simpler!
Maybe I'm just used to that OS
Anyways, Im looking for a clear cut, laymans terms response.
If anybody is able to help, its VERY appreciated!
Im running an unlocked and rooted Rogers Dell Streak, build 6601
So far Ive been able to take it from being the "Rogers OS" to the AT&T one.
A guid I found here told me to do so.
I got rooted and have fastboot and clockwork on the unit but I cant seem to find out what to do next.
I tried streakdroids QDLtool video but my laptop wouldnt allow me to change the certificate signature checks off and I got turned around and now cant see "quaalcom HSUSB" in my device manager..
Im a complete n00b to android, I apologize if this isnt making much sense and please explain slowly
How can I get the Custom froyo on my phone from my current state?
Anybody?
Or do you know where to point me for more information?
