sx66 and Blackberry... anybody have it working?

Hi. I've got sx66 version of the Blue Angel on Cingular. It was sold to me as having an integrated Blackberry client (obviously not true). Has anybody got the Blackberry client from one of the other OEM version ROM images working?
If so, have there been any other side effects in applying the image?
Thanks in advance!

MDA III & Blackberry
I am looking into the TMobile MDA III which I believe is the other name for the SX66.
I want to do the same, basically have the MDA III and need the blackberry push service (which I understand will pick my corporate mail from my Exchange server in my office) and push to to my MDA III.
I've heard from Tmobile that they will be offering the push service soon. I hope this helps. I imagine the Push service will be provided by RIM and therefore available through all mobile operators.

Yes it works with my MDA III
http://www.t-mobile.de allows download of the (German language!) ROM update which includes the Blackberry client.
My local T-Mobile Shop (here in Austria) told me that this software doesn't work in Austria. (I already have had a "real" Blackberry with service from T-Mobile austria) because the protocols are not compatible. I tried it nevertheless and it worked (yes, sure ... protocols ... and that's why the blackberry client for the MDA II is supported, but not for the MDA III. Right ;-))
After installing it, you can go to the instantemail web site for your old blackberry, log in, go to "profile", and select "change device". You then have to enter PIN and IMEI of the MDA III (which is displayed in the blackberry client) and messages will now be delivered to your new device.
There is one major issue: the device will turn on whenever a blackberry message is received. Even though the backlight is turned off after the specified interval, the device itself (including the screen) will remain turned on. This obviously drains the battery in just a few hours rendering the current version of this solution non-unsable in practice.
Maybe that's the reason why local T-Mobile still says that this software "does not work" ...

Cingular bundles a push service called XpressMail...
... that also keeps turning on and leaving on the device. It works (to a point), but it's no Blackberry...

Hi All
I am not having to much luck with this phone anyway
if i understand this correctly the MDA III is a Qetek 9090

BBConnect and ActiveSync

First off, THANK YOU to all who contribute here. This site has been ALOT of help.
Question...
I upgraded to WWE 1.42 Rom to have the blackberry...
Problem is now Activesync will and will not sync calendar.
I've read a few posts on going into bb and checking and unchecking pim calendr sync. but even when it does sync, after taken out of the cradle it will delete all calendar entries on the BA.
I've not read any fixes for this, so I am asking the community for help.
Also since upgrading to 1.42, I've noticed a significant lag..
I have SPB 3.0, Phone Alarm, Screen Lock, and an upgraged calendar. all were on prior to upgrade and BB connect.
I'm on US tmobile if that helps, and am recieveing bb emails straight to my phone. Thanks in advance for any help!

I Have exactly the same problem I am on t mobile uk This problem has also only occured since i used the up grade.

I have found the problem i think but dont know how to solve.
I have down graded the phone to the old rom and in the instant email settings there is no Rim Settings. It looks to me as if the Rim setting and MS Sync are fighting for control of the Calander, Which causes the pairing with the pc to be deleted.
So i will stick with the old rom for now although its not as good ie cant get mail alert sound etc.
Anyone have any other ideas please post.
Also one otherthing i have noticed when the phone is in the cradle it cant collect email via blckberry.
Seems t-mobile are no help at all
Thanks for reading this
Merry festive season to you all

excell99a,
does the old rom that you are using have blackberry instant email? if so which one?

Yes it does have instant email
its MDA3_TMUK_v106160_SHIP0307.exe
There is a link in the downloads
You also have to add the Camera2K5_v1 to get the camera to work

This fault has been fixed in the new ROM released yesterday by O2. It has an updated version of the blackberry client.

Sorry
This is for Xda II ?
Will it work for t-mobile MDA III ?

Its for Xda IIs which is HTC blueangel.
You may need to get the t-mobile version (if they have it). At least you know there is a fixed version from RIM so its possbile for t-mobile to release it.

I'll confirm this IS a working rom with WORKING BB Connect!! no more Calendar and Activesync issues!! EVEN after soft resets!! I downgraded from 1.42 to this 1.40, love it!!

I have been unable to load the O2 ROM on to t-mobile UK MDA III. Get country error code
Does anyone know if T-mobile are fixing this or is there an easy way to get the o2 Rom to load

o2 Executive

Hi Guys,
I just bought an XDA executive on ebay from the UK.
The seller said it was unblocked and hould work with any sim, but after recieving the unit and turning the unit on i cant get past the o2 screen and none of the buttons on the phone respond to once clicked upon.
Please advise?
Thanks!

Hi,
I think that you have to upgrade your EXEC with O2 shiped Rom that you can find it on the ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com login using xda user and pass xda and under folder Universal, i am sure that you won't have problems olso sure that the phone is unlocked couse o2 is giving it sim lock free phones
Kind regards
HowlingWolf

Hi,
Thanks for that.
I clicked on the link but it does not work.
Also hw can i update the o2 when the screen does nothing?
I have no prompts only the o2 screen lights up.
thankyou

Then, For how to install it, there are many threads on this. I don't remember which one I used but I did and it worked fine.
Good luck,

Wanted: To Have Network Free Rom On Vario Ii

Hi guys have recently had enough of tmobile and wanted to know how to do the following, any help would be gratefully appreciated and thanks in advance for any help given.
1) To change the ROM on the unit so running wm5 only (as on a unlocked phone e.g. HTC Tytn).
or???
2) Is there anyone who has the ROM for the qtek 9000 on the 3 network based in the UK, i have a 3 contract that id like to use in my vario II as a 3 device, as the network only has the qtek 9000 currently i am wondering if this would transfer over onto my vario II?
If so any chance of "planet 3" working on the device as i want to be able to use all services.
As before any help would be gratefully appreciated, any mail or notices can be posted here or to my email [email protected]
hope to hear from you.
