Update ExtendedROM? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

I am still running the original WM5 on imate. I just updated Radio to 1.51 and bootloader to 2.10 as discussed throughout the forum. I am planning to install Schaps 3.60a tomorrow. My question is: can I also update my ExtROM? currently I have 1.31.305.104 but I notice in the download section that all extendedroms are device and operator specific. Could I install the latest one from T-Mobile for example and not the one from imate? maybe it's better not to touch it?

NEW ROM: Orange UK 1.30.90

Comes with MSFP but not A2DP as expected, but one suprise is that it has been bundled with radio 1.03 - obviously they think this is the most stable?
Can be downloaded by anyone here:

The ROM posted on this website has AKU 2/Messaging and Security Feature Pack functionality. This is not a ‘patch’ – rather this is a total ROM replacement. Please ensure that any data you currently have on your M5000 is backed up.

Yes, it's A2DP it doesn't come with (stereo bluetooth). The AKU2 update includes MSFP.

yes
Is A2DP included?
Presumably it is possible to replace the 1.03 radio rom with the 1.09 or even simply exclude the radio update if already running 1.09?

I'd imagine so. I'll give it a whirl later, without the radio ROM, and let you know.
it's possible with noid update... I just updated without the radio...
Nice one. Cheers!

confirmed. NO A2DP included. Maybe next time......
M5000 rom update
I'm asuming that this radio has not changed at all. can anyone confirm?
I'm running 1.09 radio from imate update and I'm not sure if it's worth updating at all. Orange have come in too late again and with this radio I don't see the point in all the hastle.

diggy.....wtf is up with your double and triple posts on these forums!? sort it out...
(no offence, btw)
M5000
This post problem is not me as far as I no. Why is there a previous post problem I not aware of? I've not noticed any other than this.
Anyway I've updated To new Orange Rom and it appears that my earlier problem ( delay in ringing etc ) thought to be radio. Is now no longer since upgrade.
Is upgrade worth it?
In my opinion if anyone is interested YES

Where to get Radio 1.15 from?

Hi, I've been trying to get hold of a more recent version of the radio ROM for my Universal (Orange-branded SPV M5000), and since my network provider's ROM update doesn't patch up to the latest version I resorted to the links on these forums. However, all the links to version 1.15 of the Radio ROM on the xda-developers ftp server seem to be dead, and in fact just trying to connect to the server root using the links in the wiki brings up a "the server is unreachable" error. I don't know if the server is temporarily down or whether the admins of this site have been forced to take down all links to it.
I have, however, managed to download one of the cooked WM6 ROMs linked to from these forums but hosted on other ftp sites. The one I picked is the L26 WM6 Pro V7 Videocall 2 ROM, which, in its release notes, says that the radio ROM included is 1.15. My question is, can I take the radio_.nbf file from that ROM and flash my device with it, or is that a specifically-WM6 version of the radio ROM which won't work on my WM5 Universal unless I flash it to WM6?
SEARCH for DARKFORCE ROM under windows mobile 6. You should find it included in the package.
---
Is the version of the 1.15 radio ROM included in the Darkforce package any different than the version included in Laurentius26's package? They're both WM6 packages - my question was whether the radio ROMs included in the would work the same with WM5 (I don't want to upgrade the WM6 as I lots of people seem to be having stability problems with it from what I'm reading on here, and I don't need any of the extra functions in 6).
Also, the bug that Bluetooth switches itself off under the 1.15 radio ROM that some people have reported: does it occur under WM5 or just under WM6?

I am not familiar with what kind of RADIO version Leo's ROM contains. I tried his a long time ago, so I forgot. But DarkForce ROM was the first one to release on this site version 1.15.00. It was the source of every Radio version 1.15.00 that you see out here.
The BT problem is in the CE ROM. The Radio ROM has nothing to do with that.
I suggest you read on how to upgrade just the radio part before pursuing anything else. You might end up upgrading everything and that is EQUAL TO A HARD RESET.
BACKUP first is the RULE!!!!
---
Yep, thanks, so I take it that since his is the source it WILL work on WM5 as well? Don't worry, I already read the relevant page on the wiki about how to upgrade the radio without flashing the whole thing! I just wanted to make sure all these WM6 radio ROMS will work on WM5 before doing anything!
Yes it works under WM5. You can update just the radio rom without a hard reset. You will find a guide somewhere here in the forums or in the wiki. I would have to search myself.

hey bro thanks for sharing but i tried uk and nl and both archives are corrupt???
please reupload the ruu or try a different link thanks in advance!
I tried DE, AT, UK - they work fine here!
Tried AT Version - download does not work!
Hmmmm, for me it worked perfect.
Do we have a straight link ?? I mena to t-mobile site ??
Sorry, i am to stupid
I have always thought, i am a ppc-pro.
But now, i am at the end of my wisdom.
My Device is the MDA Vario II from T-Mobile (get it 1 week ago).
First i have done was to visit the xda-devs, read all about upgrading a hermes, flashed HardSPL, flashed Schaps 3.54b -> all went fine.
Now i would like to try this Official Rom and this is where i stuck.
Can i simply Flash this one and is my Device after that still with HerdSPL or do this overwrite my IPL / SPL.
If this is so, can i reflash HardSPL and change to any other Rom (Schaps new one, when released or else).
Sorry for so many questions, i really read all the Wiki - Sites but i can not figured out how this work.
Because my English is not so good and it is hard to read so many technical Threads.
Thank you for any answers.
give it a day and someone will cut the bloat out and release it with a custom ruu if your unsure
i have extract this by myself and repacked it without the ipl.nb and spl.nb.
but i am not sure if i can flash this with the ruuwrapper.exe found on this forum.
This is possibly the most impressive released ever!
T-Mobile UK have been saying that there would be no update for the past 12months and its got an official release!
Gonna flash and reply in a few!
I have updated my ROM thread accordingly to celebrate the release!!!
does it come with a radio version?
Rom:
3.60.110.4
Radio:
1.50.00.00
Protocol:
32.83.7020.20h
Nothing yet on the official download site
... and it appears to be identical to the test version pushed out a few months back. Presumably the "For Test only" splashscreen has been removed.
Indeed it has been and its fast, I went into Hard-SPL and it flashed up!
Does anyone know what SPL this should be?
Herm300
IPL-1.04
HERM300
SPL-2.03
OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2)
ROM Date 09/05/07
Storage (total) 47.73 (Free) 39.34
Program (total) 48.77 (Free) 28.54
Anychance of getting it extracted? I managed to flash using Hard-SPL and it all works very very well, uber fast
Never been so happy with my Windows Mobile 6.
Has installed okay on mine with no messing around with RUU's or anything.
No test version on the splash, although its a little jarring to go back to the god awful pink and white on first reboot. Now where did I put my Black themes......?
I really miss the original Spawn splash screen. Did anyone ever actually release an installer for it?

Upgrading to the Official WM6 ROM, but have questions

When I got my replacement AT&T 8525, it came with the AT&T WM5 ROM. I decided to downgrade to the Cingular WM5 version since I didn't like the AT&T one. I've been skeptical about upgrading to the official WM6 release, and I figured that since I have some time tonight that I would. However, I do have a couple of questions about how this will work since I had to install a different bootloader in order to make the change back to the Cingular WM5 version possible.
Currently my settings are:
ROM version: 1.34.502.1
ROM date: 09/21/06
Radio version: 1.40.30.00
HardSPLv7
My question are, do I need to modify my radio version before I upgrade? Also, should I modify my bootloader before I upgrade to the official WM6? Thanks.
Firstly good job on flashing HardSPL.
your radio doesnt need to be changed at all, but if you want to take a peek at my tests here that might help you choose an appropriate radio version.
For WM6 DEFINATLY go for it, the updated stacks/drivers/kernel are definatly faster than the WM5 versions.
Give the pandora naked 7 ROM a shot........it will FLY.
Your settings can be restored for AT&T using the HTC network wizard (easily found with a search).......and make sure you backup all your contacts etc... using PIMBackup (in the development forum).
I keep getting an error 264 connection error saying that the update utility cannot connect to my phone. I've followed all the steps. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. The only thing that sparks my mind that I don't remember occuring before is that when I plug my phone in via USB ActiveSync automatically begins, so I wasn't sure if I needed to disable that function or not since the instructions mentioned something about being sure that happens before installing the new ROM.
Any help? I'm still stuck here.
I just did mine (I am a brand new to all this) and I followed these steps word for word in this thread, adn man what a difference .
read these all the way through.

Nates good people and willing to help although he is a caffeine addict
and after you upgrade the rom do this, but read it all before doing so
HTC plug in , great look for the 8525

Oh i forgot, the HTC att WM6 included the radio upgrade to the 1.48. which works great.

SPV m3100 on UK Orange network

Information overload, too many wm6 updates.
Looking for the best and latest update to wm6+ for my phone
My phone as of now is
wm5 locked to orange sim
OS 5.1.465 (build 15673.3.3.1)
Standard SPL? and radio?
Will these upgrades work on UK orange network, and I've seen somewhere a cab file i think to reinstall all my orange network settings, I hope to do an upgrade this weekend
Thanks Phil
Phil
I did the upgrade on an M3100 on Orange UK and used ROM CE OS 5.2.19202 (Build 19202.1.0.0 PV DVH) 16MB PP CLEAN. Works fine. I did not even need to run the network wizard to set up all the Orange UK settings. Great Rom
Phil ... before you try anything make sure you go HardSPL so you don't end up bricking your device.

Personally the most stable/fastest rom I've ever used is K's WM6 Final

I'm currently using starbase64's S64_WM_6.1_HTC_v2_WWE which is very feature rich and WM6.1 (but I did SuperCID my device before hand)

Once you've upgraded your M3100, you'll probably find that your orangeworld browsing is reduced to a txt-wap view so you'll need to installed Rabdo's little fix

Thanks, just downloaded the HTC update 838Pro_HK_ENG_WM6_Upgrade_20070712
and
HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a
should I upgrade my phone first or unlock first?
Wanted to try Official wm6 from htc, before the other roms, can I do that? pick, choose and try any roms
The sim unlock should be done 1st because atleast you'll be safe knowing the IPL is 1.01 and SPL changed to 1.40.Olipro (HardSPL-1.40)
Note that when you use the "AUTO_Unlock_v3a.bat" file ... it will want to downgrade your Radio from 1.38.00.01 to 1.16.00.01 (which means you will lose HSDPA connectivity) ... so you'll need to upgrade again
Also when the unlock program is finally executed, if you chose to SuperCID your device, you'll be able to load any Rom but manufacturers warranty is out the window.
Just run HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a
It ran very smoothly
ROM version 2.11.61.3
ROM Date 05/21/07
Radio version 1.16.00.00
IPL-1.01
SPL-1.40.01ipro
Installed my 3 network sim, all okay, it worked, just need to install 3 network settings
i have brewed and installed wm6 roms with no problems, even upgraded the radios to newer versions, all you will need to do is input the gprs/3g access settings and install the sms fix to allow voicemails and sms to get through properly
