I have an XDAII and am with O2 and wish to change to Orange.
I was going to buy an XDAIIs from Orange but reading about the problems I think I will stick with what I have.
Having read most of the posts, version numbers are spinning around in my head and I am thoroughly confused !
I have:
ROM version 1.60.00WWE
ROM date 12/03/03
Radio Version 1.10.00
Protocol Version 1337.18
ExtROM version 1.60.50
Will the latest unlock program work ok for me ?
Would it be better if I updated to the latest ROM first ?
Can I continue to used my O2 SIM card once I have unlocked whilst I wait for my Orange SIM card to turn up ?
Are there any issues with using the XDAII with Orange ? Does anything which worked with O2 suddenly not work anymore with Orange ?
Can I use a Pay-as-you-Go SIM card with my XDAII and (providing I have GPRS bolt on etc) does everything still work the same ?
Cheers and many thanks to W4XY for all his obvious hard work
If you are thinking of upgrading your ROM, why not just reflash it with Orange configurations and save messing about! Just check the country code before you flash and all should work perfectly. If you are in the UK, there is a customised version of the Ext ROM for 2003SE here:

Hi Fin
I am in the UK
Are you saying I don't have to unlock it if I do this then ?
i think you should go for a normal unlock procedure and after the procedure is complete your pda is unlocked and everything remains the same only change is that you can use any sim other that o2 after unlock.
for unlocking of xdaII follow this link

I would like to update my xda2 with the current orange m1000 rom, is this possible? I know both devices are the same but i would like to have the orange rom as i am on orange. I have tried downloading the orange rom and upgrading but it says it cannot do so.
Can you please let me know if this is possible and if so how, thankyou very much
i would also like to do this, does anyone know if it can be done?
Hello, I do not class myself as a newbie with all this stuff but i'm at a stalemate. Got myself a new spv m3100 from a friend and unlocked to o2 using radio update...working fine. I just want to be able to send/receive mms but I can't get gprs settings to work so ROM update is the option but there's no english o2 ROM, any suggestions?Don't think the german trion rom would do.Im basedin the uk by the way
cheers

I forgot to mention I am on WINDOWS VISTA
Vista *could* be a problem.
On the O2 web site there is an official download of WM6 for the Trion. Maybe you should try to get hold of that since you are on O2.
i have also orange spv m3100
few days ago orange here (slovakia) announced there will be NO official orange WM6 update for this pda, so i decided and flashed it with tnt2 wm6 rom
my orange was never flashed before, so i did it in 3 steps, which i suppose you need to do too
1. install bootloader Hard-SPL-V7 (alias olipro 2.10)
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=27
(you have there also link what to do first when you use vista)
2. install radio (gsm part) - i used latest v1.51 - find the download link on this page somewhere (hermes wiki)
3. install choosed rom - i used TNT2 professional pp4 with htc home
in fact i did it for the first time and had no major problem (only in step 3 the autodetection of bootloader failed and there was no option for v2.10 so i choosed "newer" or so) and after third restart the WM6 booted up ...
Hi there,
I too have an Orange SPV 3100, using it on O2.
I would prefer the O2 XDa Trion Rom but can't access it cos it is not an O2 serial number - (anyone who has the O2 XDA Trion WM6 ROM, please get in touch!)
Anyway, back on topic. Today, I upgraded my MPV3100 from WM5 to WM6 using the HTC ROM available via this site:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298520
From this page I selected the following link which is a file share site, I selected the free download option and was downloaded in a minute:
http://rapidshare.com/files/2179382...1.255.1_102_6275_1.38.00.10_108_Ship.exe.html
This upgrades to the WM6 ROM and gets rid of all the Orange stuff and all their annoying branding, it just leaves it with the HTC logo's when reseting, no more Orange stuff in site!!
I suggest you use this unless you can access the XDA trion ROM.
I had absolutely no problems with the HTC ROM when installing it. Unit is running well, however, I have noticed I cannot access the front camera like others on this site have mentioned after upgrading to WM6 - a small price to pay as I never use it.

yes this is only latest orange update for mn5 not wm6
if you have unlocked previously then i advise you run oli 2.10, ithink thats what its called basicly hard spl
this will let you instal the manufacturers rom
but why on earth would you do that
i suggest you install shamanix grass, based on schaps roms
its super fast and very stable
Anyone have any news on the official windows mobile 6 rom for the spv m3100.
I tried talking to orange but i was given the runaround and no answers
Have you tried this one? http://www.business.orange.co.uk/servlet/Satellite?pagename=Business&c=OUKPage&cid=1044134915191
There is no official WM6 rom from Orange yet for the m3100. the link posted by member "yaky" is the latest rom, but still only WM5.
Thanks all
Looks like orange don`t want any more of my money
time to give it to another company
