I was thinking of buying a 8Gb sd microcard for my Orbit
http://www.memorybits.co.uk/shop/mi...ard--plus-hc-card-reader!-sdsdqr8192e11m/5531
Can any experts recommend whether this'll work on the phone or not? I've noted from another thread that if I download http://members.cable24.at/immogroup/...HC-Artemis.cab this and run this on my orbit, then it should work.
Is this right?
Thanks very much in advance.
Yes, that works, downloaded the same file and I use a 8GB card too. Copy it on your phone through active sync and install. Soft reset and then it works. If you ever update the ROM of your phone you have to take out the card or it will get stuck at a white screen (does not damage anything).
Next time you better use the search function, read a little bit and use a litte less imprtant title.
Many thanks for your help, bought the card and it's working fine.
I did try searching but wanted to make sure this would work before splashing out the £30 or so!
are you using WM5 or 6? i havent been able to get the SDHC patch to work on my Artemis with WM5....
As far as I know the patch is for WM6 only and does not work on WM5 devices. Is there a reason you don't upgrade to WM6?
I'm in a similar position to mugglesquop: searching for that SDHC patch for WM5 XDA Orbit. Reason for not upgrading to WM6 is that I've invested so much time into my WM5 phone, that I've got everything tailormade to have it the way I want it. I don't want to be starting all over again with WM6 or with a cooked ROM: a WM5 patch will do just fine!
I love the way my phone is: the only thing missing is SDHC compability. Like mugglesquop, I've searched everywhere, but with no joy. Please help!
if you use a 4 GB SDHC cart you need the SDHC-Artemis.cab .
Or you flash your Orbit with vanilla with sdhc
Would prefer not to flash my phone.
Which SDHC-Artemis.cab are you referring to burgi110?
(The one I tried made the WiFi icon disappear and Resco Explorer didn't recognise my 4GB SDHC Card)
Sorry, pointless post deleted.

I think no-one has picked it up yet as I can't find trace of it in the forum but O2 UK has released a new ROM for the BA, XdaIIs.
I installed it - seems to be all right. Big improvements:
O2 Active UI v3.6.024 -well, seems to be more stable than previous versions
Bluetooth build 3900
Radio build 1.12
Windows mobile CE version 1.40
BlackBerry Connect v2.0
Removal of Photo Contacts
AND AND AND.... are you ready?
WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER 10! I am not joking. I've got it on my BA.
Strange O2 does not list WMP10 in the features of the new ROM.
Download it from http://www.my-xda.com/
You'll need your O2 number and IMEI to accessd the software upgarde section of the site.
Enjoy.

sorry sorry
err... sorry!
In another thread on here (I can't remember which one) someone who works for 02 said that they've stopped selling the XDA2s due to 'system problems'. Strange they'd do that just after releasing a new ROM :S

chances are that they are clearing old stock for the new xda exec as they now have a new device, the upgarde is just an upgrade, even if they do carry on selling the 2s i dont think o2 have the brains to ship it with the new rom, they tend to leave customers to fend for themselves and if you know nothing about upgrading like us on here, you have no chance.
I have had my XDA IIs for nearly a year now and have been running the ROM version that came on it without too many problems, but i thought i would upgrade it to the newest version because of WM10, now that i have there is a problem with it that is REALLY bugging me; First, i have my brightness level low so as to conserve battery life, but when i use the camera it goes to full brightness which is not a problem, it is when i finish using the camera and close it down it stays on full brightness unless i go to the screen settings and change it back to how i had it originaly.
Does anyone know how to sort this? Thanks
If you look on the Wiki there is information as to how to obtain the camera.exe file from an alternate ROM which you can then copy over the new one.
I messed around with this when I tried upgrading to WM2005.

Will this patch work for WM2003 SE?
Its just an exe not a patch
Try it, (keeping your new one) and if it doesn't work then you can revert to original.
Didn't do anything, still got the problem.

YEAH, its from a 1.40 wm2003se rom originaly. 8)
rofl i didn't even notice winmedia 10 as i've been using pocketmusic the whole time but thanks for that.
I was trying to do the same thing, but half way, the phone automatically stop and now it would not start. It will only show Serial on the top of the screen and v2.07 on the bottom. If I put it on the cradle, the Active Sync could not recognize it and the screen will show USB on top and v2.07 on the bottom. Soft reset, full reset, removal of battery just would start it gaian. I don't have the desk top screen back. I cannot use it at all. Can someone out there please help???!!

ROM 1.40 crashed my Xda IIs
SAME HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can anyone help????????????????????????????????
Well i had this rom on my xda2s, i have now sacked it off and gone back to the launch rom and upgraded the radio stack and bluetooth myself. Got sick of having to reset the backlight manually everytime i used the camera! Not bothered about WM10, never use it, only use TCPMP for media. Wish i had done this in the first place!

Have you tried the guide on WIKI here? -> http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.42.00_Upgrade
Look under the heading "First Method (Quick/Easy) (TYPE II)".
This should help you restore your device!

Hiya All,
Sorry to be a pain in the ass, but i upgraded my phone to WM2005 and then downgraded to 2003 again. I cant seem to use the new O2 upgrade. It looks as if all is ok but when i check the system info the ExtRom Version is blank.
Please help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers Mike
hi all,this is my first question on this site.This site is incredible for the wealth of info put forward by its member,credit to all you guys.i have flashed with a couple of the roms on my universal mainly tmobile and o2 and imate,but i desperately want to try the orange rom,does anyone know where i can download this from.thank you in advance.also praise due to buzz,what a techie,gr8 stuff.THANX
thats brilliant, i wouldn't have the guts to do that, just a few questions
1.Which ROM have you found the best out of the box? (from the 1st turn on)(added applications etc)
2.say you are on O2, were you able to still make calls/txt/mms on the other roms, (changing the settings etc maybe)
I have an Orange M5000 that im using as a bluetooth modem right now to use on the internet though GPRS (not in a 3G area)(only because u get 1gb allownce for the first 3months!), I would like to help you out with my ROM but i wouldnt even know where to start
THANX FOR YOU REPLY.I WOULDNT ASK YOU TO DO ANYTHING YET,i have done a lot on both the magician that i have and the universal.i have read a lot of discussion on these topics on this website.in my experience,if you are on a contract then yes you are dead right with what you say.at the moment on my device i have about 30 programs on it,it runs suitably fast enough for me.i have unlocked and unhidded the extrom and deleted it.i have an o2 exec running bits of tmobile and a bit of o2,because i have an tmobile sim.the unit is superb despite the neg comments on it,i have had masses of pdas and this is the coolest.currently i have xda exec,mda compact,fujitsu loox720(TOP CLASS PDA VERY DIFFICULT TO BEAT),TUNGSTEN T3,NOKIA9210,SHARP SL860.I would read more on here though because you can increase the confidence level and the level of knowledge u have.the way to do it is to unlock the extrom then soft reset,then unhide it then soft reset have u can see whats on your extended rom.i have an extra 10 meg now i am waiting for buzz god to find out how to delete the partition.the orange has the best today screen interface hence why i want to try it.the files can be copied onto a pc then zipped and posted.only try it though once you are comfortable.flashing roms onto the pda is far more gods will,wouldnt recommend that unless you are totally confident.
yes you can change the settings although i am happy with the config at the moment,easier just to install the extrom bits :shock:
Hi, All
Can anyone offer any help as to how to setup tv/av out, which cables and software are required??
I have just been watching someone plug their Nokia N95 into a tv set and I have to say I am very impressed, the picture's and video's look great, so easy to setup plug and play.
Thanks

Not really.
You can use Webcamera Plus to do this. It allows the PPC to stream video to the PC from the PPC's camera or screen.
You need:
WebCamera Plus Application by AtekSoft (Just google it)
ActiveSync connection
PC with TV out
Well yeah.. it's not as easy as with the Nokia N series since they had it already built-in the hardware.

Hi to everybody, I went to see this device (quoted) yesterday, it is a very nice thing indeed, it could open lots of possibilities to our devices, I think that it could be a very desirable thing for any "bussiness man" who owns one of these devices.
I already asked to the maker about price, availability, distributors and even minimum orders with them, I've just had an answer, they are asking about the requested quantity, so, if there's someone really interested, come ahead, we might get a beatiful ad on at a good price.
Hi! kecido, I'm excited with this device but I went thorough their webside, it works only from our main memory. Normally all our files we kept in memory card like ppt, video. So is there any other way to solve this since our maim memory so little. If I got solution for this matter I will buy this device. TQ

i dont think there can be a solution to this.... the hardware you're attaching is through an sd slot meaning you have to remove your sdcard...
why dont you use your ext rom / flash disk instead? just a thought though..
I'm not sure which thread to post this query in, but have tried to delete from other threads and can't find out how, sorry.
Anyway on to my query.
Hi folks, i have just bought an 02 XDA orbit 1, and i really like the device although one of my gripes is that the keyboard is too small for texting.
I am running windows Mobile 6.1 professional, ROM version 'Oops black WWE' and I have a 1gb micro sd installed.
can you please let me know if the keyboard 'EZIMPUT 2.1 will work ok on my device in English? and could someone please point me to the link for the best version to use with my device specs?
Sorry also, I am really new to Windows mobile, is it just a matter of putting the cab onto the phone and installing it from there?
Also, sorry again, but is there any way to get the screen to dim completely after the time out. mine still shows and although dim, may be enough to be using the battery.
Thank you very much
Steve
Hi, I have had to turn my xda trion back to factory settings and now i cannot use my wi-fi or any of the programs i used before. I have been told this will be fixed by an upgrade in the operating system for the phone. I have searched every where to find windows mobile 6 or 6.5. Does anyone know how to find it? Thanks
obviously not one of the incrowd, so no one can be bothered with me

install it from your phone
it won't do it:-( have installed from my storage card and it cam upwith a load of text, i take it, it installed, have paired my phone with the other phone, can send stuff, just can't recieve, the ftp tab or whatever suppose to be there (only going by what other posters elsewhere have put) isn't there. Imust be thick or something
i have paired the devices
so in devices the item is there, in mode i have both check boxes checked, compports(unsure about this, do i need to do anything in there?)
oops i am now experiencing hang ups on the phone,taking ages to do things...Hmmmm
not going to do a reinstall just though.
are there anymore fixes i can try for this, i have saved this one just in case though, xx
make sure 'beam' is on in comm manager and set to receive all in connections.
been having seveve problems since ilast posted tried to reinstall from scratch the copy of 6.1 i have and the screen was going white, so i have updated to 6.5 again, although i hate it, it's a shame there isn't an updated stock file of 6.5 with the look of 6.1 because that would be ace. Love the new connection in 6.5 on/off thing is i am having the same issues with bluetooth with 6.5, it must be my phone??? don't know where to turn now

link won't work for me:-( i have reinstalled 6.1, but it hasn't fixed it. But it maybe useful to know that if you do try a clean install of something, inother words the same on top of them same rom,and it hangs then it maybe worth installing a different one and then going back to the one you want, it worked for me anyway...lol

flash the at&t one before you flash the rom of your choice. It is essential to getting your phone to work well with 6.1 and 6.5 roms and eliminating tons of problems.
also flash using the sd method if possible

no offence but that rom is awful, it slows my phone, the backgrounds are rubbish in it, the different keypads are good though, but i only wanted the normal one. i don't wish to be scathing about it, but it just is not my taste. The bluetooth still doesn't work, no tab, people keep going on about another tab i should have at the bottom of the bluetooth, can someone clarify this??
i must say though., seeing the WIFI and Bluetooth on the screen is brilliant. The today screen is extremely basic. why isn't the start screen editable?? i'd like messages, clock, file explorer, and a few other things but there you go.
i am now searching for another 6.1 to rival the first one i found or a 6.5 that isn't to overthe top
Actually flashing with the microsd card is the preferred way because it's faster, more reliable and doesn't require you be connected to a PC. I think you should read the wiki a little (not meant to be condescending). If you want nice 6.5 roms that don't slow you down then try the lite versions. You will find them all with links to the at&t base rom.
finally tonight i have found what i have been searching for
the shipped 02 software
i am a complete newbie, and i'm totally wondering why no one pointed me at this when i first came to this forum, it has even replaced that stupid Dark vision HTC splash screen...rubbish!!!
It has fixed my bluetooth issue straight away, i know you like pushng the boundaries on here but christ i have spent 5 days searching for this!!
hopefully any newbies will find this post,it for a XDA Trion or Hermes 100 as i later found out and is the software that rolls out from 02
oh god finally.

Hi Essexgirl. Can you please tell me, where did you find the shipped 02 software? Do you have a link for it and what version of Windows Mobile is it?
