I'm so confused... - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi,
I wondered if anyone could clear up my problem...
I have read a lot of threads on different forums about WM6. There's very little information about WM6 upgrades with the PDA I have - the O2 XDA Mini S.
I'm looking to upgrade to WM6, and cannot find any way to do so. I've found T-Mobile offering an upgrade service to their customers, but not O2.
I'm not after any kind of cracked, illegal copy, I just want to know if O2 offer the same service?
Is it that it hasn't been released for this PDA model? Or the service is just not available?
I just want a way to get it! lol
Please help me out!
Thanks

There is no official WM6 out there for your device (HTC Wizard) not from T-Mo, nor from O2, nor from any other operator; so if you don't want to experiment with cooked/leaked roms, you are unfortunatelly out of luck.

XDA Equivalents

Anyone got a list of equivalent devices sold under providers names. I'd like to know who else sells XDA II other than O2 and what do they call it. Thanks in anticipation
In the UK on contract there are two, O2's XDAII and Orange's m1000. Off Contract you can also get it as the Qtek 2020 and the i-mate.
Thanks for that. I'm looking for clues as to how to set up my XDA II to browse the internet via Vodafone GPRS. So far I get a connection but page not found error. I wondered if Vodafone listed the device unde another manufacturer but it seems not.
I've asked them, by email, if they have a generic windows PPC 2003 settings I could try. If I crack it, I'll post the solution here, because I don't think I'm alone in this.....
Have you tried the settings for Vodafone listed here.
Sorry it's been a while since I checked this post. I tried the Vodafone settings advised and they work a treat! Just don't understand why Vodafone can't seem to be bothered to provide this info themselves.....

HTC P3300 or O2 XDA Orbit

Hello,
I'm a newbie to this forum. Yes, before you all say anything I know they'r the same thing, packaged differently.
Since I'm in Canada, I'll be paying full price for either of those two, unlocked ofcourse. Was wondering if there are any pros/cons to either those two and which one would you all recommend?
Thanks
With Artemis you should have HTC patches and upgrades, with branded devices you may wait longer (for O2, Orange... software releases). HTC officially announced WM6 ROM for Artemis and help for other brands if they will decide to buy WM6 license, but you don't know if they will...
Will O2 be offering a WM6 upgrade? Someone just posted that O2 will not be offering an update. I'm wondering if I shud get O2 or not. I really like the Orbit, but now im confused.
O2 havo no plans to upgrade for now, but they don't say no for ever - so we don't really know...
I've ordered HTC P3300 only because everything seems confirmed for it, plus I'm getting it with all North American maps. Will let you guys know when I recieve it in a few days.

O2 Germany will be releasing official WM 6 update

Don't know if this is old news here, but I just came across a news that tells about O2 Germany releasing an official WM 6 upgrade. I assume it will be for free.
The news:
http://www.onlinekosten.de/news/artikel/25536/0/XDA_Orbit_und_Trion:_o2_spendiert_Windows_Mobile_6
And the future download page:
http://www.o2online.de/nw/support/downloads/software/xda/xdatrion/index.html
Does anyone know how far I might be able to use O2 updates with my unbranded htc device with another provider? I'd say don't care, but O2's providing that home zone stuff my provider doesn't
Don't have much experience with updating my Hermes.
i hope ONE austria will do this too, or ill leave them.

I asked them some weeks ago, the answer was "WM6? Theres a new WM out?". And this was a technician from the tech hotline........ But I'm fine with the Roms on this site, no need to have all the ONE stuff in the extrom.
BTW: Did you manage UMTS to work? I only have GPRS access.
Today I also read in a printed computer magazine (C't who knows) that HTC will be releasing a free upgrade in June. According to that article on downloads.europe.htc.com, but I can't find anything usefull there yet. Let's hope for the best.
bah.. ooopopopopops

WM6 upgrade for v1605

Hi guys, great forum. I have a v1605 on contract with Vodafone UK and I am told that it belongs to Hermes / TyTn family from HTC.
I wanted to know if there was a WM6 upgrade for this model as the guys at HTC Europe were not ready to talk about any network centric phones though their own upgrade is coming around end-July.
Actually I wanted to upgrade my handset to the successor of TyTn which I believe is Kaiser, but nobody at Vodafone is ready to talk about it.
Any help in this area will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi by any chance did you manage to local and install WM6 on your V1605 as I'm trying to find a ROM upgrade of WM6 but no luck. Can any help me with this...?

Advice : Upgrading to WM6 for MDA Vario II on T-Mobile UK

Hello,
I have an MDA Vario II on T-Mobile UK which I bought less than one month ago. I can see that HTC have released an official WM6 upgrade for the phone but I cannot find an official upgrade on T-Mobiles UK site.
Can I use the official HTC WM6 ROM Update Utility and get my phone to WM6? If so when I boot my phone up into WM6 for the first time what must I do to get my GPRS settings etc. back on? Just use the online T-Mobile service which send s them?
I know it sounds like a n00bish question, but I've just got this phone and don't fancy bricking it just yet!
Any links to additional downloads, resources etc. would be well received.
Thanks everyone
Anyone able offer advice? I've done a lot of reading about this on the XDA-Developers site but I'm still in the dark about whether or not something might refuse to work after flashing or how to best avoid the dreaded bricking.
Thanks again
