Hello everyone...
i just bought an i-mate JAMin yesterday, so im new to windows mobile.
Its OS is (from what im reading from the "about" in the system settings):
Microsoft windows mobile version 5.0
OS 5.1.196 (build 14847.2.0.0) etc...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now i was just wondering (from what i'm reading in this forum), if my WM5 can be upgraded to WM6 ??? just like the one im reading about in this link: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/6/default.mspx
im sure that i have a HTC phone since when i turn on my imate i get "HTC" with a white background...
======
As a quick summary, i have 2 questions:
1. After installing XDA_Exec_WWE_20108_20301_11300_wwe_ship.zip , will my WM5 become WM6 ("WM6 OS 5.2.318 (Built 15341.0.0.0)")????? just like the one on http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/6/default.mspx
2. What are the terms "crossbow", "universal"? do i need to know those terms before upgrading my i-mate?
Thank you a lot in advance... and thanks a lot helmi_c
sorry if i sound dumb but im really overwhelmed
anyone ?
hello? sry if im being a pain... but im very anxious

1st: You mentioned IMate Jam? This is a HTC UNIVERSAL thread otherwise known as O2 Executive, MDA TMobile PRO, QTEK 9000, IMate JASJAR, etc... I don't know what an IMate JAM is. So I am concluding you are on the wrong page.
2nd: On the first question you posted, YES that link is WM6 or CROSSBOW for the HTC UNIVERSAL. So, I am assuming you are using a different phone since the name you posted is IMate JAM. DON'T INTERCHANGE THEIR NAMES, AS YOU CAN SERIOUSLY BRICK YOUR DEVICE.
3rd: The term you mentioned HTC UNIVERSAL is the generic name. O2 Executive, MDA TMobile PRO, QTEK 9000, IMate JASJAR, etc... are brand names. CROSSBOW is the same as Windows Mobile 6.
umm... actually its JAMIn... i-mate JAMIn...
are there other forums than Universal with ROM updates ? precisely for i-mate JAMIn ?
i'm really confused here... but are those ROMs replicas of an official WM6 upgrade from microsoft ? do the ROMs give the 'impression' that users have installed WM6 or are they true ones ? (after all , the version of helmi_c's ROM for example is WM6 OS 5.2.318 ... so its basically still version 5... right ?
btw from my "Device Information" in the system settings I read that my ROM version of my JAMIn is 2.13.9.23 WWE.... does that mean that if I install helmi_c's ROM (2.01.08 WWE) I'll be DOWNGRADING my ROM ? :S:S:S
thx in advance
Check your device and look for your proper forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/index.php
You might seriously destroy your device if you use our ROM. I suggest you read more about your device on the proper forum.
These ROM's for the Universal are UNOFFICIAL release, but they are genuine Microsoft Crossbow ROMs made to run on our device.

Wiki my friend, Start there!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
thanks man! my question is.. is my phone up to date ?? and what are good roms?
your using stock rom that came with the phone, so as far as your provider is concerned yes your up to date.. as you can see on these forums there are many newer builds made available to you by cool chefs like myself. so take your pick and flash once you hard spl'd your phone..
read the wiki and pick your rom for your own taste

help finding official WM6.1 Rom for Spv M3100

Hi experts,
I need to get official Wm6.1 rom for my spv m3100 (Orange).
I tried to search forum and wiki, but failed to get some required result.
I would really appreciate if anyone can find my desired rom.
In fact I have'nt dumped my original wm5 rom and loaded HARDSPL 7 and then flashed with other hermes roms one by one.
Thanks a lot
The last official upgrade for hermes was wm6
You will never found the 6.1 stock for hermes.
Thanks for the reply.
So officially, only WM 6 was released and WM 6.1 was built by people themselves?
And where can I find official WM 6 Rom for Hermes Orange (SPV M3100)
Thanks
Seek and you shall find!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Available Original Shipped WM6 ROM Versions

Yes, I have HardSPL 7. But that's for preventing the Bricking.
Why original rom will brick a HardSPL installed phone?

[Q] HTC 621 can I rom flash from WM6.0 to WM6.5

I have a HTC s621 running rogers WM6.0,can I use 3VOLUTION SERIES *][WM 6.5.3 STD,to update my phone to WM6.5 or do I first have to up date to WM6.1 using Windows Mobile 6.1 Final - By Kavana.I I'm a newbie at this,thank for any help you can give me,I have got a lot of info and apps from this form already.Great to have people who take time to help and teach each other,thanks,Les.
You can go staight into 3VO Rom. What it does is it "flashes" what is on there, completely erasing the bios and os giving a brand new Rom. 3VO is an excellent choice. One of my top 3.

Hi there, this is something that you can find in the sticky and has been asked many times. So, there was no need to open a new thread since it clutters the forum.
On that note, thread closed,
