Noobie Ques: Can my SPV M600 update with Dopod 818 pro ROM?

Dear All,
I am new to this forum which i just joined today. Currently i am trying to figure out my newly bought SPV M600 from u.k but i m located in Malaysia. Any errors or failure on my SPV M600 will be a nightmare for me because i cannt get back to U.K and fix the SPV M600.
After i surf through the whole prophet section, i didnt able to get a proper guidelines on updating the ROM in SPV M600 to Dopod 818 pro ROM. First of all is it possible that i update the Dopod 818 Pro latest ROM? Is it compatible?
If yes please teach me the right ways to perform it. I really scare that my SPV M600 will be gone.
Any specific intruction on the update? To make it perfect?

Don't worry about your SPV m600 ther's no need to get it back to UK..You just have to search around in this forum..go to Prophet Section, surely you'll find tolls nedded and instruction

what is the SPL / IPL of your phone?
I have an M600 myself and on an Orange ROM and wonderig if the Dopod ROM is better and the pros and cons of upgrading from orange to dopod.
Also pls be sure that once you have flashed to a non orange rom u cant go back to the orange rom as it aint available nowhere.

when i try yo go through the wiki.xda-developers.com and under the phophet section there is no information. all the links seems contain no information. wondering where to start from.
and also is this rom working fine with spv m600? http://www.dopodasia.com/download/RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship.exe
what is extended rom? can i have a link on that. thanks

Take a look at this post:

Be aware that if you upgrade to Dopod, there's no turning back for now with this rom, meaning you won't be able to downgrade until a solution is found.
I have installed myself that dopod rom instead of the orange FR one, and I think it have better speed, but appart of that, don't really see the difference appart from some stuff missing in the dopod (like pvplayer for live tv and the rotate screen) and some useless stuff in dopod like auto config for Asian phone providers.
In my case I've update to dopod because it was the better rom atm and I wanted to get rid of that AZERTY french keyboard config which is far from handy on a phone and have a QWERTY.
Now it's up to you to know if you wanna risk it :wink:

rockdaman: And you cant go back to Orange rom once you flash to Dopod. Do let us know if you do flash and if you like dopod any better?
Cedrick: Since the Orange ROM already had AKU2 i assume it is the newest ROM out there comparable to the latest Jamin ROM. Your thoughts pls?

T-Mobiles SDA Business / REQ: QTEK-ROM GER

Hey folks,
have an T-Mobile SDA Business (the black one) and I have to update the ROM (don't ask why), so I thought about updating it to the QTEK-ROM for the corresponding device without any branding as my T-Mobile has.
My question is: where can I find one and which is the HTC Codename for the device? Is it the HTC Typhoon? English or german ROM doesn't matter, because there's also an official T-Mobile ROM for later setting it back to german before I'll sell it (if ever). I think that even in the english Version I can switch the T9-language to German, right?
I also have an MDA Pro with QTEK ROM which works better than T-Mobile ROM for me.
I've searched the XDA-dev-FTP but didn't find anything.
Any information would be great.
Regards,
NiTeSHiFT

The SDA Business is known as the HTC Feeler, but often known as a variant of the HTC Typhoon. The Typhoon and the Feeler use different keyboard drivers so you must be careful.
I'm afraid I don't know where the ROM is.

Thanks for the info about the HTC Feeler. Didn't knew that. I knew only the HTC Typhoon, found and installed that ROM and found out that 2 of my Keys didn't work the way they should ;-) Actually the didn't work at all.
So I flashed the new german T-Mobile ROM and have to use that one.
But actually I want to buy a QTEK 8310 but have to chek if I get my SDA Business repaired. The lower right key doesn't work anymore, but I didn't do anything. Hope the warranty catches up.

If you want to, you can try upgrading your SDA Business with the latest German ROM from T-Mobile here: https://after-sales-service.t-mobile.de/eg_online/t-mobile/t_sda.htm
This should fix your button problem. Good luck!

Thanks for the hint, but as I mentioned in the posting above, I flashed the QTEK, found out, that it didn't work how it should and flashed back the newest T-Mobile ROM in German.
"So I flashed the new german T-Mobile ROM and have to use that one. "
Thanks anyways

So you're saying that you can't get the phone to ActiveSync with Windows? I'm having the same problem at the moment and I'm looking at whether it is possible to flash an image from a mini-SD card. If you find anything about this please do let me know.

Niki200 question

I got Tmobile MDA touch plus from a friend in UK. At the back it is written HTC Niki200.
I got unlocked the sim card for Turkey by using rom versions over internet help.
What kind of modifications, upgrades can I do ? such as
Windows Mobile 6.1
Wifi
GPs
etc...
I guess this forum is very helpfull but where do I start from?
Help is too much appreciated..
Thanks in adavnce folks..

No reply to my question ?
(((

The only restrictions for you are the hardware!
It means you cannot upgrade your device to use WLAN, has no built-in GPS and VGA-specific programms won't run on your device, all other things can be done with it!
Happy flashing!

Thanks bro...
I flashed it. now it left all stupid T-Mobile applications. I got a original HTC WWE wm6.1 now.

Also if i flash my HTC TOUCH HD, will my simlock dissapear or something ?
Cause on my last phones it was, i flashed it and i needed to unlock it again and more headache.

If the htc still unlocked.
Which ROM you all will advice me ? i really prefer Dutch roms, but english roms are also oke.
and also tell me why, so i can get all the benefits of it
Im not a beginner in flashing of phones but flashing of HTC's i am.

Hi biggie89,
Yes, the good news is that there have been many advancements and improvements to the Windows Mobile OS in version 6.5, such as having a more finger friendly User Interface - providing you with a much neater and tidy user experience. Speed varies depending on which 6.5/6.5.x ROM you choose to install and you will be glad to know that both Dutch and English ROMs are available for download
The bad news is that if you flash your HD in it's current state (simlocked), then I am afraid that this is unlikely to work until you get your SIM unlocked as the simlock is controlled by the baseband. Data is stored there too and flashing the radio or ROM will not have any effect on the simlock. Therefore, I would advise you to have it unlocked before you begin the flashing process.
Here is a guide that you can read to make you more aware of how to flash a Touch HD ROM. Essentially, what you must do first is unlock your phone using either Hard-SPL or USPL.
You can also see this link as it details what the latest ROM builds offer in terms of stability and performance.
I think it would be a little unfair to say which ROM is best especiallly for the people who create these custom ROMs. Each ROM is different in their own little way i.e. one ROM might be fast but a little unstable, another may be stable but a little slow, etc... The best thing you can do is try out different ROMs (Dutch or English versions) yourself and try to discover which one meets your needs.
Note: when you get to the stage of downloading a ROM, to find a Dutch based ROM, simply look at the headings of the ROMs listed from this link. Dutch ROMs include the abbreviation NLD in their title [NLD = Netherlands], and English ROMs have WWE in the title [WWE = World Wide English].
I hope this helps you out.
Regards.

Mastoid is correct. Flashing to a new rom, even if you use hspl, will unfortunately not unlock the sim.
There are tools that can do that, but it is not free. You can try this one which seems to be popular and effective.

Hi all and thanks for your reply on my message..
My htc HD works now with my vodafone NL simcard so its not simlocked or something i think i wrote my question wrong..
Im scared if i FLash my rom that the unlocking of my device comes back, So i can't use my vodafone NL simcard with it.
Is that possible ??
the current state is unlocked or locked with vodafone i dont know for sure but you guys tell me that if i FLASH my rom now i still can use my vodafone NL simcard ???
if that is the way i will flash my rom in to a nice ROM that u guys told me to do..
the thing what i want to is..
USE my vodafone NL simcard with my htc touch HD like now but with a different ROM.
my htc touch HD is working great with WM 6.1 with a vodafone NL simcard.
so im still confused with the simcard if it will work.
do you guys think that it will work with WM6.5 ??

Flashing a rom does not affect the status of the simcard so it will still work. Just follow the Dummies Guide (link by Mastoid above) and you'll be fine

HD2 locked by Orange France is possible to do HSPL & rom cooked?

Hello All;
I'm new here and i have bought htc hd2 in French language from Orange France locked. and i have some questions;
1. If i do a hard spl and after try to istall a cooked rom or any original rom of another language like Italian for example, can i do? is possible? or maybe i will have difficulties with orange? because you remember it is locked.
2. If it is possible, doing this the phone can be free or unlocked? or there is any other procedure to unlock it? maybe to upgrade radio?
3. the last question; if a day i want to turn back to the original orange france rom can i backup it? and how?
thank you all. i'm new with this and don't want to brick it so i make this question to the specialists

Most of your questions can be answered <<HERE>> in this thread. Start by reading first post before posting...
Read <<HERE>> as well.

I can confirm that HardSPL installs and works on a HTC HD2 bought from Orange.
I flashed the radio to the latest (2.06) and I use a ROM based on 28014 (6.5.3, I think) but using SoftSPL.
I will reflash to a newer ROM this week, this time using HardSPL.

Did that procedure resulted in unlocked HD2?
Can you use SIM card from other networks/providers?

HD2 from french (Orange)
Hi everybody,
I bought my HTC HD2 few weeks ago from Orange in France. I am quite new in the field and don't know a lot of thing about ROM flashing. I have a naive question. I have a plan with ATT but with this HD2, I am not able to use ATT 3G only the EDGE. I read that it is normal. I just wondering if I flash into a new ROM this could modify somthing and let me use the ATT 3G network ?
Thank you very much to read me.
