Hi all
Is there anyway we can confirm that O2 will going to release the new ROM and upgrade for O2 exec ?
Ivan ROM is execellent however it is not stable yet and seems to me that his ROM has memory leak problem.
Also, I don't know if anyone notice that somebody reported their device has bootloader version 2.0. Is there anyway we can force O2 release this version as apart of the upgrade ROM ?
I maybe ask too much but it will be nice if those updates release.

hey guys, i was wondering if it was possible to upgrade the rom on a test version of a pda2k? the current version rom is 0.96.104 WWE and i believe carrier devices have released a new rom thats somewhere in the 1.3 area. ive downloaded the updated rom and will try upgrading it tonight, but i doubt itll work. im predicitng itll give me an invalid country code or something like that. any ideas what i can expect, and what i should do when it happens? thanks!!
Does anyone know whether it is possible to install the O2 updated ROM on an range SPV-M5000? On attempting I get the dreaded ERROR 120 Country ID error.
Thanks

hi
whats up with the radio rom version on this update???
1.03??? thats so 2005!!!
I've just completed the update and my first impresions are good.
My earlier issues thought to be radio ( delay in ringing, poor signal etc ) seam to be no more with this update.
Hiya all,
Does anyone know if I can use the Orange SPV-M5000 ROM update on my T-Mobile MDA-Pro (and get rid of the T-Mobile simlock )
Thanks!
Yes you can use it on your MDA but you will not get rid of your sim lock

Bummer.... :? just hoped it would be simlocked for Orange then 8)
Just wondering if the phone has been unlocked would updating to this new ROM re-lock it? Is it worth updating to this ROM, I have 1.13.49 WWE.
No I don't think so from what I have read and understand the program that decides the simlock has nothing to do with your OS ROM. But as I have mentioned in previous posts I think the I-mate Rom is so much quicker than the Orange rom.
I have a 24 months UK warranty with orange just wondering will upgrading to the imate rom void the warranty? Should I stick with orange to keep the warranty?
Cheers
I think you will void your warranty by upgrading to imate ROM. However if you download the Orange ROM also if there is a problem with your handset you could always put that back on. I have had my M5000 about 5 months and it already has been through 4 ROM updates to find the best. If the worst happens when you update your ROM give HTC europe a call. Someone in an earlier thread said they charge £40 to reflash for you.
Since O2 UK had introduced the Orbit to the UK market, there's non of Official O2 Orbit ROM released.
So, UK Orbit CID Locked owners MUST NOT do the ROM thing.
Ask : Why must not do that??
Ans : If the device is bricked, there's no way to fix it without paying the money to "Unlocked CID Dudes" and I bet you don't want to.
Ask : What do I need Official O2 Orbit for?
Ans : If the device is bricked, it's the only way to bring your device back to life without paying.
Ask : How about I download the Orbit German ROM and install it?
Ans : the Germany ROM will NOT allow the UK Orbit device to do that.
Ask : How about USPL thing before upgrading the ROM?
Ans : You will take a very high risk if you want to
Ask : If I upgrade only the OS?
Ans : Same as above
Ask : What should I do now?
Ans : Wait for the O2 UK to release the Official O2 Orbit ROM and you can take any risk whichever ROM from wherever you want. If it's brick, you can bring it back to life with the bootloader.
Ask : When the O2 UK will release an Official ROM for the Orbit?
Ans : Don't know the right date yet but I'm pretty sure that we have been waiting for that news.
Ask : How about the owners that already brick their device?
Ans : Hehe, they're still waiting for an official ROM also. (including me)
SO!!, why ain't we force them(O2 UK) to release the WM6 soon. or how about we ask them to release at least Original official WM5 out here like O2 Germany does, so we can get it unbrinked.
yep, that's the situation I'm in.
I called o2 a few days ago and they said that WM6 would be available in a few weeks!
They also said it would only be available for a limited time. Strange.
Anyway, I'm stuck using my old Nokia 3330 until o2 release a ROM update!
O2 update
I emailed O2 with this exact question....(When will WM6 be available for download)
They called me a day later saying that they intend to release WM6 for the Orbit at the end of summer (around end of August sometime). That was exactly what they told me.............
I guess it's just a bit more of a waiting game then..........so annoying when version 6 has been around for a while already.....
Bricked Device Solution
Hi guys,
Just thought I'd let you know that I too bricked my Orbit. I took it back to the shop and acted like it just happened by itself ;-) They took it in and I had it repaired free of charge within 10 days. It can't hurt to try.
hehe...
i bricked my orbit, taken it in to shop, no questions asked they re-flashed ROM back to WM5 with no charge or sucking the back of their teeth, saying that it has taken nearly 3 weeks,

i did the WM6 upgrade on my CID locked orbit, and it worked first time without any problems, i think if you follow the instructions carefully you will be ok. not sure if the USPL upgrade method will unbrick a device but it does work, you just need to be brave and very careful.
it was posted a number of times already...
- before upgrading, do uspl to be safe.
- have original rom before upgrade, so you can always come back to original rom if you want;
it is always your choice upgrade it or not. nobody force you.
regards,
Hi,
I did my first ROM upgrade the other day on my CID locked O2 XDA Orbit using the USPL method.
Found it very clear and easy to use and I now have a lovely WM6 version.
Just follow the instructions properly and you should be fine.
Cheers
There is now original O2 Orbit WM5 ROM available so you can return your orbit to how it was..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314866
I posted in the wrong forum first.
I have had my orbit fixed and it now has the O2 UK WM6 installed.
I don't think it is available to download yet.
Can I extract this for anyone to use?
Regards John

Do you mean you have had your phone fixed by O2??? If they're flashing repaired phones with WM6 hopefully we're not too far away from them releasing it to everyone...
O2 are now shipping Orbits with WM6
We got some orbits in last week and they were WM5, the ones that arrived today are WM6
is there an official O2 WM6 upgrade available for download?
http://www.my-xda.com/xdaOrbitSoftware.html
ok people it's here
I can confirm that OK UK when you get your dda back from been fixed have the WM6 Rom installed i got mine back today however it had been ready for almost 2weeks but due to me been in Spain on holiday couldn't get it. So woo go get it lads
damn it the server has gone down under heavy load!
Can someone please upload the O2 WM6 Rom ? I don't have a valid Serial number
you'll have to wait it out...the download is down for now. Once someone has downloaded and posted on Rapidshare and provides the link - its for you to use...
don't think anyone will give out their serial number like that !
yes its server is down can some one upload it if you dont mind
Wehey, finally they have released it, as soon as the download server goes up again I am going to reflash.

So, has anyone successfully unlocked, hard spl and flashed a new ROM into an O2 Ignito?
There's so little about the O2 ignito here, but i'm thinking to get one and try a wwe Rom on it.
Thanks all
some people have them

Ehh?
There's not much information relating to the "MDA Compact IV" either.

True true, but don't forget it's the same hardware anyway so all of the updating applies to all 3 versions of the phone.
I personally have the MDA Compact IV and have updated ROM/SPL/Radio fine, and my friend has the O2 XDA Ignito and has also updated all 3 of his so i can confirm its safe
The XDa Ignito comes unlocked as standard - you can use any SIM card in it. As for the rest - I put Olinex 1.40 on mine and then have flashed 3 different roms from here all fine
I'm going to put a new rom on my Ignito tonight hopefully.
First though I want a copy of the original O2 rom to put back on if necessary.
So far i've managed to dump the rom from the phone to my computer, but now just need to convert that all back into a ROM somehow.

same position here, i got the raw files and the spl but trying to find out how to build a rom with the raw files.
please update if youv managed to find anything
I also have the raw files but if I have no idea how to get these back into a normal flashable o2 rom! I am sure we will manage it if we need it for warranty purposes though if it comes to it
i think we need to start a new thread for this to get more attention, some of the advanced users will deffinitely be able to help.
its worth doing in my opinion
As has already been stated, there's loads of us XDA Ignito users on here. Within 2 days I'd flashed a new SPL and ROM onto my device. Would be nice to have the original o2 rom to roll back to if necessary but I'm perfectly happy with out it currently.
As far as I'm aware o2 are one of the few operators that don't lock their devices. Out of all the handsets I've had from them over the years I'm as yet to receive a sim locked one.
markquinton,
can you help us out with redeveloping the original o2 rom!
seems like you have some ccoking experience having a custom rom on your orbit! see my previuos post in this thread
I'm afraid I only built custom rom's from the base HTC one's made available for the Orbit originally when WM6.1 came out. I've never worked with raw files and wouldn't have the foggiest about how to get them back into a flashable state. Sorry!
hi all am hoping to get this thread going again as im having trouble geting Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex onto my ignito. did any of you guys have trouble?
Hard SPL on ignito
I managed to install the hard SPl onto my ignito, but have been unable to flash a new rom.
Think the pre-installed works well though, I just installed the original black theme as the blue o2 one is pants.
Radio upgrade has been fine.
Biggest recommendation I have is to install the VGA version of quick GPS. It REALLY made a difference to my satellite lock times from like 10 mins to about 10 secs
no problems with it works fine mine was on o2 software using latest dutty's now.
give it a go, loads faster now
