I've succesfully re flashed my M1000 with the I-Mate V1.72 firmware, and all is working well, no regrets so far.
However, I just wanted to know where I can get hold of the original firmware just incase I have to return the unit or need access to the extended ROM applications?
Can anyone help?
Cheers

Hi
just want to re flash my rom with the original software from o2
do you know where i can get it from ?
genesis
O2 has the original software freely available on their site.
Can you give a link for that please, i can only find rom for XDA1.
Has someone backed up the original software for xda2
its just that my software has gone to pot so i wondered if anyone has got a backup for there xda2 software from o2 in the uk. so that i can download it. I would be very grateful

Hey guys,
I'm getting a XDA II (latest o2 UK update) and I will be using it with an Orange sim.
Which rom is the best to have for me?
I saw the new iMate rom was released.
o2 is installed now but I don't need any o2 stuff as I will be using it on Orange.
What do you guys think?
Keep the o2 rom or upgrade to another? (QTek, iMate, etc)
Cheers
I have an M1000 (Orange's XDA2) and thats running v1.60, the latest one you can download from the O2 site. I'd guess use that on your XDA 2 and you shouldn't have any problems
Hey m8,
Thanks for the reply.
You have a m1000 running the o2 rom?
Didn't you have an Orange m1000 rom?
If you still have the m1000 rom could you post it?
Cheers
Moogled,
What improvements do you see using the 1.60 ROM ?
I have an M1000 with the original (English Language) 1.52 ROM.
Using a couple of tools, I have GPRS always on and my TomTom 2 is working perfectly.
I don't feel that I am missing anything, and since the upgrade would void the waranty from Orange, I am holding back upgrading..
Regards
Michael
Plz share your 1.60 rom for the M1000. I'm having an Orange M1000 (with the 1.52 rom), and would very much like to hear from anyone having upgraded this model.
Anyone gonna help me out with this one?
Thanks
Panja
No one....?
I simply used a standard UK version (it WAS actually the USA ROM when it arrived), of the XDA2, with my Orange UK SIM.
Works fine.
Since then I have upgraded to the latest UK O2 ROM upgrade - again no problem.
I have also done a lengthy post on here as to all the Orange settings ou need for the phone.
Sorry Guys , I know i amy be a bit dim , but has anone flashed done this upgrade to an Orange UK XDA2. ! if so are there any problems?
Is there a specific rom or do i have to try to figure it out myself?
Thanks.
Hi,
There are lots of us who have flashed our M1000/XDA2 to SE on Orange UK. This link should help you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=70843#70843
It will give you a link for a UK extended ROM, then all you need is to pick a ROM version (2.02t is the best in my opinion!), make a folder with 2.02t files as well as the extended ROM, and run HimaUpgrade.exe. It will take about half an hour.
If you have never flashed your phone before, or you need more help, PM me and I will try and help!
Cheers,
Fin
Has anyone uploaded the Orange M3100 Rom ?

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
Just uploaded a dumped ROM
/Uploads/Hermes/Orange M3100 english dumped Rom/M31000 dumped ROM 14.123.1.614.zip
Orange M3100 ROM version 1.23.61.4 ROM date 07/13/06
Hi doe anyone have this rom, I used a free unlock software on my Orange m3100 now I can't update to the latest ROM. I think If i reinstall the original it will allow me to do this.
Anyway if anyone knows of an active link for ROM version 1.23.61.4 ROM date 07/13/06 . I would be really greatful.
thanks

Not sure if re-installing the original ROM will solve the problem, Orange did not release the original ROM for download, however it has been rebuilt from a ROM dump - I can't recall which thread it's in, but a quick search should turn it up.
If you want to flash the new Orange ROM you can extract the .nbh file from the .exe you downloaded from Orange (use WinRAR) and then use Olipro's RUU Wrapper to flash it (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298737).

This is a link to the latest UK Orange ROM with new AKU 3 posted about 2 weeks ago. It's WM5 so makes you wonder if they will ever come out with an official WM6 upgrade. This'll for for now, esp for warranty purposes have fun!
Hi Chaps,
I had a UK Orange SPV M3100 which I SIM unlocked and also upgraded to WM6 Black Satin... this was a great phone and worked very well for me. I now have a Kaiser and gave my upgraded M3100 to my brother. However, his IT department at work won't allow him to put the latest version of Activesync on his PC (God knows why, but there you go...). WM6 requires this updated version of Activesync.
So, my question is this:
What is the best WM5 ROM out there?
I assume as I have CID and SIM unlocked the phone, these will not need to be done again. Also, am I right in thinking that he may be limited to a 2GB micro SD card with WM5?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

i downgraded my ATT 8525 back to WM5 after realizing WM6 was just too sluggish on the phone. So i just went back to the original shipped version of att/cingular wm5 listed on xda-dev wiki here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
you can find your orange wm5 rom there, just look for the latest version...hope that helps
Thanks for the reply... I am wondering if the Official Orange ROM (linked to on the page you referenced) will install OK, given that I have Hard SPL on my M3100? Will I need a specially re-wrapped version of the Orange ROM to install correctly on my SPV M3100?
Any feedback greatly appreciated!
