The Best Rom - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

I have just go my xda back from o2 as the screen failed and dont know what rom to use.
its a o2 uk xda
i have had dev rom 1.1 and 1.2
and ppc 2003 4.0.5
but dont know what to use for the best.
i play music movies lots of games and the most important thing is that my TOMTOM is 100% and all working
anyone offer any ideas?

Hi. i've been through many versions too, went back to original rom, found it to be too limited, especially once you are familiar with wm2003.
I then upgraded to 40005 a month ago. I also play many videos/music/recording stuff, esp when I am stuch in trafic . Found 400005 to be real stable . You c that download from jeffs rom kitcken.

thanks for that so you are saying ppc 2003 .05? does that work okay with tomtom ( i used this rom but then screen broke so some how managed to get origianl rom back on for warrenty repair)

This is just plain stupid!!!
So many sites use flash on their page, and they really think people will put 500 bucks for a stand alone player that was free 1 week ago?

Can someone upload it whilst it's still there, so we have the old version for posterity?

Old version doesn't work on WM 5 on Jasjar,BA and Himalaya
I installed the old version or the version in the post above on my jasjar wm5 and it is working fine.
Is it playing flash themes...say animated today etc...

Best ROM image for Games?!

Hi,
I've noticed on alot of websites that sell games for WM5 that the O2 XDA Exec isn't listed as supported! Altho others like the iMate JASJAR and Orange SPV M5000 are!!
Is the XDA Exec ROM image crap for games?! I seem to be having alot of issues getting them to run smoothly (Worms, Warfare Inc, Insaniquarium to name a few)
Ideas?
Matty
Yeah, they're all the same phone, so download away.
Universal= Dopod 900 / Qtek 9000 / MDA Pro / I-mate JASJAR / O2 Xda Exec / SPV M5000 / Qtek v1640

Try (use google to find the exact sites):
- ScummVM (then get the roms for day of the tentacle, curse of monkey island, etc)
- Pocket UFO
- Pocket Sim City 2000
Google is your friend!! :lol:
Look for Astraware, Handango, PDAMill etc
Here is a link to a thread discussing which works for the HTC Universal: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32489&highlight=games
Try this for the links: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32698 Take a look at the very end of my 1st post to find a surprise. Enjoy!
I wouldn't say all ROMs are the same, I have games that worked perfectly on my English ROMs but they don't work on my Chinese ROM which I have recently flashed to. I don't understand it either. It's only a couple of games though, majority still work perfect luckily.

It's because of the character set.

win mobile 6 on herald?

many roms of wm6 are around on known sites for specific models.is anything for our herald too?ive read that there is going to be an official update to wm6 of this model so there must be something around, even beta.
Mhhm, i couldnĀ“t find anything by now....
Lets wait a little, i think HTC is going to release something for us, soon
No one cooking any roms for the Herald tho?
doesn't look like it, i looked into porting one of the wizard roms but i didnt get very far! its definately possible to flash your own roms though. Also its worth remembering that HTC have promised us wm6 roms before June. I would much rather have that than a pre-release wm6 rom as the ones that are avaliable for the wizard, hermes etc.
As far as i know, everyone is content with AKU 3.2

well i have used crossbow on my wizard and the only difference i see are pretty icons and html mail. i dont really care about either, and more importantly my herald is very stable, cant remember the last time i had to soft reset never mind hard reset. so thats why i can wait until htc do their thang!
I hear one handed uses on WM6 is way better and that windows update feature looks very promissing.
O2 may be releasing an HTC Herald as O2 XDA Terra, with WM6 on it.

HTC Herald (aka Tmo Wing)
I bought a T-Mobile Wing 2 days ago (obviously it has WM6 on it) Where-as it is stable - I am rather disappointed that they removed the native VoIP support - thus I am waiting for someone to cook a ROM and put it back in so I can do the Hybrid Cell/VoIP thing that I was Previously doing on my Wizard (MDA) - I still have my Wizard which I use strictly for VoIP at home.

Latest WM5 ROM? do help

Hi All,
I just brought back my uni after a few months of semi-coma (i will release the details shortly) and now i would love to get my hands on the latest WM5 ROM from any carrier as i want to test my Uni and see if it's truly workable again. I want to use WM6 but too many and not sure which I want to use with issues.
Do pass the info and link if possible.
TQ and regards,
techx
Asking for a Rom (any rom) is a risky business, it usually depends on your needs/tastes, but you can have a look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=376771
Hi Kecido,
I know it's not right to request but I should have asked, what is the latest original ROM uodate released by the carriers at the moment. Was it Imate or TMobile or Orange?
TQ and regards,
techx
btw, i don't like WM6 cos cooked ROM has too many issues.
Now the risky businees is mine, because I'm not such a geek to answer that question, anyway, for universal as far as I know (I can invite anyone else to tell me I'm wrong, please, tell me I'm wrong, er, mmm, just a "lapsus") it should be T-mobile (akku 3.3 I think), and source of the one I pointed for you (better ask to the modder).
Anyway, read and have fun.
Actually I find whe "what's the best WM6 rom for me?" posts annoying. WM5 roms are few and far between these days as most seem to want Wm6 even though it's not 100% functional. So yes in my opinion the question IS valid.
The latest official WM5 rom is the T-Mobile AKU 3.3 available from T-Mobile support websites. The link in the post above is a team effort Matrix Final rom created by myself and SDHC card support added by Bennyen.
There were some issues I didn't like in the original T-Mobile rom like the GPRS connection had to be forced to on and the various nag screens about unsigned apps and the god awful hideous colour schemes that T-Mobile insist on using etc. Hence I developed the rom that suited my needs - I use my phone for GPRS internet use quite heavily so I biased it towards that - and shared it just incase anyone else liked it. I am not saying install my rom. I am saying try out a range of them and find one that suits you as it's you that knows what your requirements are
Hope this helps.
Psi
Thanks for the info PsiDoc
Hi Psidoc,
Thank you for the reply and I will try, once i get my Uni back from the dead (again, yes i know)
Hope Uni comes back to realty soon.
TQ again.
Techx
Oh dear...
what did you do to it?
Psi
Me too (but O2 UK Xda Exec latest rom from O2)
As the original poster (I did not want to duplicate threads) but I am looking for the latest O2 UK ROM for the xda exec. The one on buzzdev.net does not work (i get no errors whatsoever but when it is finished and I do hard reset, press O then the screen goes multicolored and pixeled and nothing happenes).
Anyone has this ROM, it is not on O2 site anymore.
Thanks in advance.

is it possible to install windows mobile 5?

Hi,
sorry if this has been asked before, i searched but found nothing specific so here goes.
i have been asked by my bro-in-law to downgrade his t-mobile mda compact v to wm5 so he can use the apps he needs to use for his job as a sky satellite engineer.
apart from ruining a perfectly good phone, i'm afraid that it will run like poo and crash often.
so, is there a way to install a wm5 rom to this handset and where do i find a compatible rom?
any help is greatly appreciated
thanks
ave'
i dont think thats possible, but the apps he use should work in wm6 too.
i use apps from wm2003 and wm5 in wm6 so that wouldn't be a problem i think
cheers mate,
i will try that route and see how it goes.
ever tried looking for an old phone that still running wm5 at ebay?
