Hey folks, great forum. I have searched the forum to no avail
Could someone please help me with the following PDA - it's a cotel Windows W1 PDA running WM5, probably unheard of by most. I bought it in Dubai recently. Is there anyway I can upgrade it to WM6, if so which rom & software should I use. All i know is its running on OMAP730/ARM926T chip. I have no idea of its ipl/spl version or if its G3 or G4, cannot find anything out about it. The following link might give you a little more insight, its the very top left one.

I really hope someone can help me out here, thank you much.
**BUMP**
No idea's anyone??
I'd like to know as well. The only thing I was able to figure out is that it runs on a custom WM5 for PocketPC ROM.

good bet to assume no one has played with this phone yet? Yes?

Not a regular poster, but help has been given previously and I hope that you can help now as in the past.
I have 2 backup roms for my xda 2, the first is version 1.72.181, and the second is 1.72.187. Not sure which is best yet, but both work and only occasional crashes. My question is this. Which is the latest (stable) rom available for my ordinary xda2, and where can it be obtained.
I use all the normal software like calligrapher and tomtom, plus some other stuff and am fairly happy with it as is, but am always willing to move forward. Does this WM2005 work with it, and where can I get it if it does. Or what about WM2003SE. Which is best and most stable.
Any help and useful advice is gratefully acknowledged and appreciated.
:lol:
There are a couple of us in the Sable forum that are trying to get a Windows Mobile 5, 6 or 6.1 ROM cooked for our iPAQ 6900 series. We are hoping that some one could give us some help and some insight or point us in the direction of some.
Here is the thread we are using to get some discussion going on all of this:

Thank you.
Mark.
Bumping this thread hoping for someone with some knowledge to stumble upon it.
How about WM5 cooking? I would like to take out all the bloatware out of my 6955, any tips?
!!!
Has anyone noticed this thread yet? Hopefully there is a bored programmer out there willing to help us all out. I'm sure there is some money in it as some ppl have bricked devices and have already stated they would pay for help rather than go to HP.
Thanks again.
Hey guys,
I just bought the HTC 8525 (old hardware I know), but it's a start considering this is my first PDA. Anyway, it is currently running Windows Mobile 5, and I would like to upgrade to WM6, because I am finding this quite difficult, for numerous reasons. Number 1, I basically have no idea how to do this, and number two the links that I have found that supposedly have the update for my phone are broken.
To make things clear, I am not asking for a direct answer. I am asking for the resources to learn how to update to WM6 if possible.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Seems like no one is interested or did you get answers elsewhere. I have same question.
I am not familair with that hardware but my staring point would be the XDA-Wiki, if that fails then google and hopefully another forum, maybe even another language...
Good luck
After asking this question elsewhere I have been advised to seek expert advice on your forum.
I have a couple of Dell Axim x50v units. One is running WM2003SE A04 and the other is running A05. Although they work OK, I have been thinking of buying something new that will run WM6. I was then advised to seek help within this forum.
I have never upgraded a x50v before, so really need help from the ground up. I understand I can use WM6 on this device, but how well will it run compared to the existing o/s?
Would you guys recommend an upgrade, or would I be better selling and buying something newer? I really like the Dell Axim x50v and have had it over four years. Advice or recommendations for a suitable WM6 ROM woud be very welcome.
Please bear in mind I am a complete novice regarding upgrading an Axim so any help with the software I need and any pitfalls I am likely to fall into, I would appreciate immensely.
Also, Is the x50v capable of running WM6 successfully and at reasonable speed?
Thanks again, Tony
I could really use some help on this one guys. I have been reading this thread... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593539 and I still don't know where to start. It all seems so confusing and being new, I dont want to brick the Axim.
Do I need to buy WM 5.0 from Dell before I can use any of the roms listed in the above thread?
I will check back later.
Thanks
Tony
Hi, I'm a newbie here, I fancied upgrading my phone from win mobile 5 to 6, then found 6.5 was current. Then read the advert at the top of the page saying upgrade to version 7, wow! I've been looking at the posts and I have to say the directions look intimidating. Can someone point me to any links that would help me? Also, which version is the safest/easiest/most stable to try? Can I do it any easier through Microsoft?
I must admit I admire you all out there, especially when something goes wrong and you find a solution, I think I might throw the phone out of the pram ....:_)
