Upgrading P3300 to WM6 - P3300, MDA Compact III upgrading etc.

Hello All,
im kinda new to ROM's so i need a piece of advice.
I have a dutch MDA Compact III (t-mobile), running WM5 with ROM version : 1.13.114.1 NLD.
my problem is i want to use internet sharing with my laptop, and if i am getting everything good this is not really possible unless i have WM6.
My question is, where and how can i flash the phone to WM6? - should i? is there something i have to pay more attention to? anything about unlocking? i've never done this before so its kinda tricky to me.
thnx for ur time

bumpyyyyyyyyyy

P3300 Artemis - ROM - Help a newbie with a simple doubt

Hello ya'all. This is my first post so first of all I'd like to congratulate you for the excellent site and forum !
There is a lot of resource info around here ! Great Job !!!
But unfortunately for some new people getting into this new world of WMobile even what it looks simple to you might be slightly blurred to us.
I bought in France a HTC P3300
IPL 1.12.0001
SPL1.12.0000
GSM 02.67.90
OS 1.12.00
ROM 1.12.406.1.FRE
RADIO 02.67.90
PROTOCOL 4.1.13.28
ROM EXT V.1.12.406.101
ARTE 100
Of course the WM came in French. Well I am willing to change it to WWEnglish and I've been doing my homework researching and reading, reading, reading through this website. Found the steps to do it thanks to Kleinemeus at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=290241 and found the DOPODAU and LOVE ROMS as well the Extended Rom in the ftp site. As well as I found my P3300 is the same as MDA compact III, XDA Orbit, P800W, Dopod P800 ....
But I still a couple of silly doubts that I gonna ask for you MASTERS your mercy to clarify me with your wisdoom and expertise.
1) After flashing my P3300 with a English ROM will it have all same basic features/programs I have in French like, the radio, tomtom gps, etc ? In other words, doing this is like getting a desktop that came with windows in french and installing a windows in english ?
2) After being successful of flashing the Rom following the steps described in the link above by Kleinmeus how can I upgrade the Extended Rom found at the ftp ?
I really appreciate if someone could help me with these 2 questions.
Thanks in advance !!!
It should work
Be careful when flashing becos many ppl cant get it right.
If you manage to flash it successfully you should have almost the same functionality.
I dnt know abt the ROM.
Is ur phone CID unlocked?If not do it before u change the ROMS.It will be a big disaster if u get stuck in between and u cant do anything.
Yups, you'll have all the basic apps that are part of WM5.
Regarding TomTom or other Commercial GPS applications, these are not part of WM5 package and are installed by supplier, so you'll have to confirm whether the ROM that you are planning to flash has that specific GPS app.
Regardinf Extended ROM, these come as part of ROM that you will plan to flash. Usually people only take some specific apps/patches from other Extended ROM that wasn't part of supplied/flashed ROM (i guess I am right about this)

Dutch T-Mobile MDA Compact III to English!

TylerDurden1337 said:
I've been reading the forums, but I cannot find the solution to my problem. I just bought my T-Mobile MDA Compact II (HTC Artemis) in Dutch and I would like to change the language to English. I've read there's a T-Mobile ROM UK, but where can I download it? And how to install? If I connect to the FTP server the folders in Artemis are emtpy except for the EXT Rom folder. But the size of the rar's is a little low, not like I experienced with updating my rom on my Magician before. Those rar's were about 40-45MB. Anybody wants to help me please! If the thread is allready open somewheren, I apologise, please PM me then...
THANKS!!!

Edit: I read some more, got little more information, did some things. Yesterday I sim/CID unlocked my T-Mobile MDA Compact III trough imei-check.co.uk (respect for this guy!!), and now I can use it with my own carrier. Now that the simlock and CID lock is gone, I would like to change/update the rom to an English version. I don't mind the T-Mobile ROM, I only care about the English language. If it's possible to put an HTC ROM on my device, I would prefer that, but not completely necessary. What ROM should I use, because I heard that the Dutch version is the only one WITH an WiFi chip? Can someone point me in the right direction? In the FTP account I can only see the ext rom, I found this rom: HTC_1.12.405.01_026790_WWE_SHIP. Should this work with my current configuration?
query

New to orbit

Hi all, new to O2 orbit. I used to have a O2 exec which was very easy to flash to WM6, but reading all the post how different is it to flash Orbit. I see alot of bricked phone here. I don't want to do the same!
thanks

On the contrary it is actually quite simple IF you follow the instructions carefully,majority of bricked devices happen because of the owners not following the proedure AND not reading ( Forum threads and WIKI) enough.
Thanks for the reply.
Is WM6 faster than WM5,which I find a bit slow!
Thanks
I use Bepe's WWE WM6, not like I do a whole lot of processor intensive tasks on my 200MHz pocket phone, but WM6 does seem to have a clean, smooth feel compared to WM5. I recommend the upgrade, but do A LOT of reading if you want to keep your phone. Honestly, unless you are after a language change or some pressing need for s ROM specifically besides the OEM - you might be better off waiting for an official release. o2 UK, and HTC are supposedly soon to release WM6 for orbit. read up on USPL, thats a good start, then go from there.

If your Orbit is originally in German. The risk is much less, there is a shiped German ROM, so you can flash it back if something goes wrong.
If your Orbit originally in a language other than German: Be very careful, and remember to flash USPL before doing any update.

Fred.
noob
Hi im a noob to i currently run wm5 dutch tmboile would like to put wm6 on but where can i find the ROM.
What is not clear for me on this forum and that is because i am a noob. is that the wm 6 forum does it contain a complete rom which i can flash my phone with or do they require at least the wm6 core?
If it requires wm6 core how do you obtain this or is this one of those paid packages like win xp

Well, I know how to flash the ROM on my Qtek 9100, but I don't find the WM6 in english for it. I know the question must be redoundant, but the information is not easy to find while I already carefully searched for it before posting.
I'm ready to bet that there must be a tutorial for downloading the ROM of WM6 for Qtek 9100. But I have not found it. That's why I'm asking.
I have not found the official WM6 ROM for the Qtek 9100. If someone could upload it, it would be nice.
Cheers.
Fred.

There is no tutorial that illustrates how to download WM6 for the wizard. Its a bit self explanatory considering there is a WM6 forum for the wizard with lots of releases as well as a wiki for the wizard that contains an awful lot of important information.
The closest thing to an official rom for the wizard is known as 'ingenetics' rom.
Good Luck

Unless I'm mistaken, just about every WM6 Rom here is in english. For example:
ALL NBD Roms
ALL TNT Roms
ALL Black Diamond Roms
Look around, Read, Learn, Flash, Enjoy!
Are you sure these roms will work on the qtek 9100?
I have not found these roms on the ftp site. Where are they?
Cheers.
Fred.
When I posted the first link I really meant to reccommend you to read, read and read first - but I did not mean it personally at all.
Sorry, but if you haven't been able to find any WM6 ROM in this Wizard forum yourself yet, I seriously doubt you know how to flash (non-official) ROMs ..
therefore I strongly advice you to start reading the wiki and the sticky threads on top of the forum first (as the other members also suggested in their posts above) and to understand the steps before flashing otherwise there is a high risk to brick you wizard.
Again, the links to the reading are given in the other thread as well.
Good luck!
I have found NON official ROMs on the wiki.
But no official ROMs of WM6.
What I'm looking for is just an official WM6 for Qtek 9100. That's why I'm asking.
It's not the sea to drink or reach the moon...
Best regards.
Fred.
There aren't any, so you'll have to settle for unofficial ones.
ah, ok.
That's too bad
So installing WM6 on a qtek 9100 is not that "leagal" right?
Or maybe some one has posted a ROM with WM6 somewhere and doesn't yell on each roof
error 300 invalid update tool
Hi
I receive this error when trying to update from WM5 to WM6
I have tried several WM6-roms and all of them end up with the same message
In my Qtek9100 I have IPL 2.17 and SPL 2.17. Language is swedish.
Where to find a newer update tool? The tool in all update files is from 2005-11-21
regards hasse
Hi,
I have the same IPL as you (2.17) so it's a G3 qtek.
At least you aleardy have found WM6 roms.
As I mentionned, I'm looking for an english official WM6 ROM...
It seems to be not obvious to get
Why do you want the official one so badly? If you want it that badly, perhaps you should purchase a new device with WM6 already installed?
Now using Black Diamond!
I have a Qtek 9100...people here call it a Wizard (HTC Wizard). There is no official WM6 rom for the wizard (OEMs have never been keen on upgrades to these devices, they want you to buy a new one. The upgrades they DO release are for THEIR purposes (make them more money), not necessarily to make your phone work better). All of the unofficial roms for the Wizard will work on the Qtek 9100. My Wizard (Qtek 9100) works SOOOOO much better with an UNOFFICIAL WM6 rom than it EVER did with the factory WM5 rom. My advice is to quit worrying about official or unofficial, and learn how to flash your phone so you can improve its performance. Believe me, the corporations that release official roms don't care as much about the performance of your phone as the rom cookers in this forum do. The corporations just want money, the rom cookers just want their Phones to work better.

You can use the Sdcard method to backup your present Rom using the 'Mtty' and 'r2sd all' command,but remember,only OS will be backed up and not all the applications/programs or your personal settings will not be backed up.Search for the 'Sdcard' backup method in the forum or check out this thread :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276963
However,to upgrade a G4 phone,read the 'HardSPL' and 'SoftSPL' methods as 'Stickies' in the G4 forum.
