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

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?
Hi all, I have dopod C720W (unlocked) no carrier. How to check whether my phone is CID locked or no? I really want to upgrade my phone to WM6, is there any available ROM for C720W? thx
Same as a Dash or a HTC Excalibur.
Here is the sticky that makes it all possible Read this and you will be able to install any compatible ROM.
Get the Rogers WM6 Rom
here
Rogers Certificate here you will need this
alrite...i'll try it later thx alot for your help
I installed Rogers certificate and started the Rogers WM6 ROM but the installation failed at 3% - my device is not supported but I have a Dopod C720W
Any idea?
The HTC website also provides a ROM which I can not download as my device is recognices as Dopod instead of HTC S620. I´m waiting for an answer of the HTC support team to get this fixed...
This upgrade seems to be really difficult

Hi guys I'm using dopod c720w with WM6 Rogers Room, plesase show me How to upgrade to New HTC Rooms?
I have a Dash so not sure if this helps. I went from Tmobile rom to rogers rom. Then I tried to switch to htc rom. I wasn't able to do it. I kept getting the 294? error. I switched back to Tmobile rom and then I was able to install new htc rom. works fine

i would think that the cavalier is different enough from the excalibur that the roms would NOT be interchangable ... the c720w is the cavalier, correct?

I also had to go back to tmo then it worked????
Hey all, new to the forum.
I bought an AT&T Jack (i637), and am running it on Rogers (in Canada) on WM6.1. Rogers never sold the Jack, so I had to get the AT&T one. I managed to find a Rogers ROM for the Blackjack 2 (i617, I think?), however for WM6.1. Would there be any significant differences between the AT&T i637 WM6.1 ROM and the Rogers i617 WM6.1 ROM?
I'd like to install the Rogers ROM to get rid of all the AT&T crap and have all the proper "official Rogers phone" stuff on it. I would then update to WM6.5 through Rogers. Possible, or pipe dream?
Thanks again,
VS
Can't flash ROM made for one phone to a different one.
