to upgrade to Rom 1.72 or not?? (Hard Reset Issue)

Hi there,
I worked for a company who bought over 20 i-mate with ROM 1.66.
Unfortunately, we had about 5 devices which suffer from Hard-Reset few times each.
I read somewhere that the solution might be an upgrade to Rom 1.72
cuase the Hard Reset is a known issue of the 1.66..
I'm going to upgrade them devices soon, but would like you to device me
if the new Rom actually solve the Hard-Reset issue or not?
Thanks in advanced,

hi
bin using 172 for about 3 weeks and no problems here

thanks for your answer.
but, just one more quick question:
have you ever suffer from the Hard Reset issue
before the upgrade?
Are you familiar with the issue?

rom 1.66 problem
my o2 xda2 used to have 1.66 rom. hard reset occurred to me like every day. i installed it back, then it would freeze, then hard reset itself. it happened 5 times. then i upgraded to 1.72 i-mate rom. it's bn 2 weeks, no problem so far.

hi again
never had the hard reset problem
as soon as i got my xda2 upgraded it to the orange 166 rom then when the imate one came out upgraded to that one.
hope it helps :wink:

Since I read a lot about radio and bluetooth improvements in rom 1.72, I would like to upgrade my T-Mobile MDA II (rom 1.60.00 wwe) too.
But I would also like to keep the 'special' T-Mobile application (as far as I know those are in extended rom).
Is it possible to use the only the radio and rom from for example the imate or qtek 1.72 rom and use the 1.60.36 extended rom included in the latest T-Mobile rom published?
(I know I will have to edit country codes and all, the question is just to know wheter or not putting together such a set will succeed)
Which 1.72 rom would be best: The Qtek one (released today) or the imate one?
:?:

My friend bought a brand new i-mate loaded with the 1.66 ROM and bootloader 1.06
He was suffering from the frequent Hard rest alot.
He tried upgrading to the latest 1.72 ROM but that didn't solve any problems. And the device seem to still go through frequent Hard Reset.
I am guessing this has something to do with the bootloader's version?
So my question is..
Is there anyone with the same bootloader's version (1.06) and same ROM version (1.66 or 1.72) also that have no Hard reset problems? :?
Thanks

D810 WM6 Upgrade on P3600?

Would P3600 owners who have upgraded to the D810 WM6 upgrade please post their experiences here.
ie:
Did you run into problems doing the upgrade?
Did everything work properly after the upgrade?
Was it worth it or did you (or want to) go back to WM5?
Thanks

hi,
i have try to update my HTC P3600 with the oficial D810 WM6 rom!!!
result: i brick my phone!!! the rom update has stopped on 35%, and the PDA stop responding.
just recover it and go back to old ROM!
i will do it!!!

No problems to up and down
Hi, I upgrade to official ROM and any problems occurs, but I prefer PDAVIET Rom, then I downgrade the ROM and upgrade Radio to 1.46.30.11 and have all so far so good!

I hated everything about this ROM including the constant freezing of my Trinity. After 2 days I went back to AXEL's ROM and haven't looked back.

Updated yesterday morning with Dopod WM6 ANZ Rom and radio 1.46.30.11, and for me, it's paradize now...

Thanks for the replies! Anyone else with a positive experience?

I had problems with data connection with the ANZ Rom and Radio 1.46.30.11. Keeps disconnecting from the network Edge/HSDPA--could not use PIE or download email. However, with the SEA Rom and Radio 1.46.00.11 I had no problem. I think it's a Radio issue, at least for me on the USA Cingular/ATT network.

That brings up a good point. Has anyone tried this ROM on T-Mobile USA?

Fast and stable
I have the new aussie rom and the new radio rom 1.46.30.11 and it works perfect really fast and stable everything works...i am happy with it...

For those who successfully upgraded their P3600 to WM6, what technique did you use?

I tried doing a straight flash with ANZ ROM and was not successful. During the upgrade, the process stopped at 28%--similar to what some people have encounted. I got a screen with the new Bootloader 3.03.0000. In order for me to get out of that, I reflashed with a previous cooked ROM. It didn't flash through, but it did reset my Trinity.
While my Trinity is not BRANDED, I found that using the "HTC Trinity SIM CID Unlock" allowed me to successfully flash to the new ROM. I entered the device into the previous bootloader version 1.07.0000 prior to flashing.
As I've mentioned before, I had trouble with the radio version 1.46.30.11 with USA Cingular/ATT. I ended up using the SEA ROM with radio version 1.46.00.11 to flash the second time around.

Last night (14/7), I have upgrade my D810. No problem. According to the Guide, don't forget to take out MiniSD, battery is charged at least 50%, etc. In general the softwares for WM5 (Microsoft reader, Pocket e-Sword, Kevtris, etc) are compatible with WM6. Bass sound is good. I like WM6.

Thanks Thomas,
That's great information!

generally worked fine for me. I think mUns TE was more stable, but the battery discharging was annoying.
However a few issues:
1) Password for the web connection (GPRS) has vanished once or twice
2) Seems to lose GPRS data conenction once in a while
3) Biggest issue- the DEVICE ID has changed. This has messed up my TomTom Traffic subscription and TomTom support want a letter to prove this happened. ffs.
4) I think the main memory leaks away....

I finally decided to give WM6 a try on my P3600 but installed AX3L's all-in-one v2.0.8.1 ROM. It works well on T-Mobile's USA's network and is easy to install.

if the original rom gets stuck, what i did was flash to the original WM5 then reflash to the WM6 version.

I upgrade my D810 to WM6 and it cannot receive phone call using China mobile SIM card, used to work for the previous ROM update.

Downgrade Artemis back to WM5

Hello to all
i've tried different WM6 Roms but i'm noct convinced to use it yet.
That's why i'm trying to find a way to downgrade to WM5.
I know that there are several how-tos but none worked yet.
I already tried the opposite way via uspl to downgrade. no success yet.
WM5 Rom is here, when trying to downgrade i get the error message 260 which means no connection to the device. i'm using the same machine for downgrading as for upgrading, nothing but the Rom on the phone has changed.
Currently i'm using the o2-xda-orbit german rom.
If anybody has a clue what to do to get the old stuff back, thx in advance
blue

You can downgrade your O2 Orbit successfully if you have Original German ROM (WM5) which is available somewhere in this forum. I can't remember which thread but if you do some search I am sure that you will find it.

I have just found Original German O2 Orbit ROM here : ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Upload/Official XDA Orbit ROM

Thank you for your answers!
I own a HTC P3300 Artemis.
Using USPL and the original o2 german wm6 rom i flashed it with WM6.
I already downloaded a german wm5 rom, my problem right now is that i cannot by any unknown circumstances get this rom on my phone.
No matter whether i use uspl before trying to flash the original rom or if i don't use uspl the result remains the same.
The update utility keeps telling me that it is not possible to connect to my smartphone.
Active Sync/ Mobile devices center connection is working fine though.

greets blue

Don´t know why but it seems alot have experienced this prob.

I have bought a htc3300 from a dealer that i find at skroutz but after 1 day i had lost the 2nd language keyboard so i took it back to the dealer to fix the problem he said that wm6 is free to upgrade so let passed it but he put the touch htc software that don't work good how can i downgrade to wm5 again please help it's only 2 days mobile !!!!

well after many pockets of tobaccos i fix it with the Original HTC Artemis WM5 ROM here : http://rapidshare.com/files/19322112...0_WWE_SHIP.rar thanxs very much it finds the image version of htc touch and make a downgrade that was that the upsl cannot do ,the upls reload the same version that had before maybe because it didn't know the previus

The UPLS is not a ROM??
When you run UPLS it sets the CID registration, so you can flash any ROM you want - but offcouse you still have to get the ROM

WM6: Problem with recieving incoming calls

Since I installed WM6 I can´t recieve incoming calls. The phone lights up but nothing more, and when I click on the reception or phone symbol when it lights up it says "no service" (translated from Swedish).
It was also some problems with Active Sync 4.5 since I upgraded, but those problems might just be because I needed to reinstall it.
Does anybody please know how to fix this, otherwise tomorrow it will go to the repair-shop and I will lose 12 days and the order in my life. : (
The sim-card works on another phone and it worked with WM5, and I have tried hard reset and a reinstall of WM6, but the problem persists.

Hi,
Did you try to install an offoicial version of WM6 or one of the cooked ones of this board? If the latter did you take all the necessary precautions first eg installing an upgraded bootloader, etc?
If you have not you may have bricked your phone.
Give us a bit more detail so we can see how we can help.
Cheers

hello
I had the same problem when I upgrade to official WM6 HTC rom, the phone don't ring and I loose the network.
I solve the problem with flashing the radio rom with older version.

I put wm6 on my phone the first day I got it. so I don't really know if this was a problem b4 with wm5.
mine only seems to ring my end after about 8 rings from the dialer so I have to get it within 2 rings b4 voice mail kicks in. Ypu think the if I update the radio as well will that help me?
ps. sorry for hi-jacking your topic seemed along the same line.

Hi there
I had the same problem with mine after flashing to wm6 (but on a trinity)
Apparently there are 2 fixes:
1. Get a NEW sim , or
2. Flash radio rom back to an earlier version that was used with wm5.
Hope this helps

Two concrete solutions.
One last question: I use a Swedish OS - do the radio roms that is under: "Extracted Radio ROMs for your Hermes" work for me? Or only Anglosaxian PDA:s?
/Dan

similar problem discussed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1442269#post1442269
in fact Palm Treo 750 (HTC Cheetah) and Hermes are based on the same radio module.
latest Palm Treo WM6 Radio version: 1.47 (Qualcom)
What that Palm utility does is simply downgrading radio to earlier version. This might work for Hermes in bootloader mode as well.
My point is: no need to install hard sspl if one can downgrade to earlier version of radio with _official_ radio downgrade tool.
I will try later and report back.
update: Palm Radio downgrade tool picked up that device is incompatible. no luck so far.

Seems problem is with Bouygues Telecom
Hi Guys,
Got the exact same problem with Bouygues Telecom. I put a Orange Sim card and it is working so I assume the issue comes from Bouygues Telecom.
So that to check, are the french guys all on Bouygues Telecom or are you using other Telco operators?

SOLVED : WM6 & HTC Tytn & Bouygues Telecom now working
Guys,
to make it work, you need to flash ROM Radio 1.38 on top of Windows Mobile 6.
ROM Radio 1.38 can be finded at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms

what version did you use? There are few of them listed on that page:
1.38.00.01
1.38.00.10
1.38.30.10

BT pairing problem

Iv'e recently upgraded to Schaps's 3.57a rom and allworked ok than I installed HTC WM6 rom 3.54 and I couldn't pair my Globalsat GPS(BT-308) and Headset(BTH818) anymore. So I returned to Schaps's version 3.57 rom but the problem remained. The strange thing is that if I use Headset from a different brand it works fine. The radio version is 1.48.00.10.
Any idea to help me please?
