Help! How to upgrade samsung i600 to WM6? - HTC Excalibur

I recently bought the Samsung i600 smartphone with WM5 built-in. Its unlocked and has no restrictions whatsoever. I've heard that WM6 has been released for the i600 in several countries. Can anyone here PLEASE provide me with the WM6 rom, aswell as a detailed instruction as to how to upgrade my WM6 i600 to WM6?
PS - i have visited the online upgrade link for WM6 on the samsung website, when i clicked on UK, it asks me for my i600 Version number. I entered my Version number but a system sign pops up saying "Please enter your i600 Version Number". Although i had entered it, it keeps on saying it again and again. my version number is in the following form --> "i600JVCG2"
Please help guys...i know everyone simply rocks when it comes to trouble shooting and stuff...would be looking forward to your help people!
Thanks.

AFAIK, T-Mobile Dash, Dopod 720w and HTC S620 are the same hardware except for outer casing and keyboard. They can share same software but their distributors have set a check: you are allowed to upgrade only if the CID code of the upgrade matchs the one on the device.
The easier way to CID unlock you device is to pay someone (like http://www.imei-check.co.uk/dashunlock.php) to do it. It's somewhat expensive ($38) but there wasn't any problem with anyone so far. As a bonus, it also SIM unclock your mobile.
When you pda is unlocked, just find (its easy) the T-Mobile upgrade file. (a pretty large exe file) and run it. That's all, 5-25 min later you will have an PDA running WM6... and branded with T-Mobile crap.
I have this device, but I'm waiting for the official HTC S620 upgrade wich should be released between june 15th (official press date - pleeeaaassee) and mid october (as said by technical support).
Hope this helps.
I have a c720w as well, and I am waiting for the HTC s620 rom. It will have less crap than T-Mobile's version and should be better.
Is there no other way to CID Unlock your phone than to pay for it? Will it void my warranty?
does anyone have a link the original WM5 ROM for the dopod c720w?
i have WM6 on it now and i think WM6 is crap, i need to go back to WM5.
You can get the WM5 rom from Dopod's members area..
the dopod site is all in japanese i think...cant find an english version...can you post a link to an english site or better yet a l ink to the ro m?
Go to www.dopodasia.com, or better, go here http://www.dopodasia.com/global/index.html
It lets you choose your country. I am surprised you can't see it.
its askin for a serial number before it lets me download anything. and i have an HTC cavalier not the dopod c730...can anyone post a link for me to download the original 730 windows mobile 5 please....
or post the serial of a 730 dopod

Well, I have a friends HTC s620 that he wants WM6 on. We SIM & CID unlocked through GSM Liberty & tried to install the bootloader...no go! Anybody have a clue as to what I need to do now? Have tried searching this & other similar forums, but no solid answer. Anyone?

I think you really need to figure out which device you are using seeing as thought you have mentioned both the Dopod c720 and c730 which are two different devices. the c720 is WM5 native and can be upgraded to the T-Mobile Dash WM6 rom after CID unlocking. The Dopod c730 (HTC Cavalier) is a WM6 native device and therefore there is NO WM5 rom for it!

Well, my HTC S630 (Cavalier), for an instance, has WM5 ROM on it. I have pre-production handset. received back in December 2006.
As far as I am aware HTC Cavalier WM6 downloadable firmware files have not been made available for public acess yet. Am I wrong here?
On an unrelated note, seeing as this is a Dopod thread and there aren't many here, does anyone know how to disable xT9 on the c720? No, the alt-space trick works only for the Dash and apps like DashConfig do not disable it.
Has anyone found a way?

It's becuse you have a pre-production device that you have WM5. When Dopod officially anounced this device it was WM6 only.

CID status
Hi,
I just bought a single Dopod c720w in Hong Kong, without any contract. How can I find out if my device is CID locked?
If not, it shouldn't be a big thing to update to WM6 with a T-mobile or HTC rom (if available), or?
Greetings from HK
Chris
I just tried to download the T-mobile upgrade file, to test whether it works with my c720w (still the problem, how do I know if it's CID locked?).
Couldn't get that far, because you need a 10 digit tmo number! Though I have a german t-mobile number, it won't work. Are there any "standard numbers" or so, or any other way to get to the file?
