Have a look on the UK O2 site. It has a IIi ROM there you can download in case of emergencies.
The URL is...

Hi folks,
I have an i-mate with the following specs:
ROM : 1.72.00WWE
Radio : 1.14.00
Protocol : 1337.24
Ext ROM : 1.72.800
After going through the numerous posts here, I am thoroughly confused. Can someone please clarify the following:
1. Is is better to upgrade to the new O2 ROM? If so which one, since I understand there are 2 versions.
2. If I do upgrade, there seems to be something called O2 active. Would this or any other settings hamper the usage of my phone since I live in India?
3. Can I have the procedure to do this upgrade?
My humble apologies if some of these questions have been answered before, but frankly, I am completely lost! :? Thanks a ton in advance.
Cheers!
Lakshman
Lakshman,
Will try to help you out once by compiling everthing from other threads:
1) There are 2 versions: (thanks to Nighthawk)
- v1.72.187 does not have Blackberry software built in. If you need to use a permanent GPRS connection that will remain connected when phone is used, you should use 187 version.
- v1.72.181 features Blackberry, will disconnect any connection when phone rings, except the Blackberry, Mobile Web and WAP connections. But so far haven't heard of any non UK O2 users able to use the Blackberry.
2) About 02 Active, i find it pretty but useless to non UK 02 users; therefore, once you upgraded your ROM it will prompt you for O2 Active Settings like Country, GPRS or GSM, just hit 'Cancel' and it won't install the GRPS or other network settings. You can still use the O2 Active but a lot of function will not be available for use in India. I removed mine.
3) Not too sure if your unit is CDL or O2 (info from HimaGetDeviceData.exe) but my upgrade was no issue at all; i just download from http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12515 and ran the upgrade. If you encounter country ID error, then you would have to refer to DCS's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12101
Hope this helps.

You mean I canot use my GPRS after cancelling and what other network settings are you referring to?
Can you elaborate? Thanks
:roll:
RE
Hi Lazzy,
Thanks to your input, I went through the upgrade successfully. Many thanks to DCS for his excellent step-by-step guide to fix country id errors.
I am now facing a curious problem. I downloaded the Appsuite for XDA II provided in one of the forums here. When I try to install the utilities I get an error on my PPC saying could not install, "please upgrade your ROM and try again!" But I believe I have the latest ROM now. Could someone please advise. :?
Cheers!

We are trying to sort this one out Hopefully someone will come up with an answer soon.
Hi guys,
thanks for running an awsom website...
I just want some clarification on this thread.
So it is okay to upgrade an i-mate with an O2 Rom such as v1.72.181 and is this the best ROM for devices such as the I-mate currently?
Anyone? please answer my previous question as I really want to upgrade...
bump..
As for the os and radio you can use any 1.72 / 1.17 rom.
The differencen between al the roms is in the extended rom and thus just a matter of functionality you want : choose anyone you like and use dcs' guide to upgrade.
thanks man, I appreciate it.
Re: RE live in Dubai - UAE, can I upgrade with this ROM
I live in Dubai UAE, can I upgrade my Imate with this ROM
After spending some time reading through the articles in this forum, I am a little bewildered. Its obviously not as simple as running a program is it??
I love and use my m1000 all day, every day and it is vital to my life.
Please please please would someone, anyone, supply step by step instructions on how to safely upgrade as I've already had to have my m1000 replaced as I tried to upgrade my rom to the MMS version as supplied by Orange.
To this day, I am unable to install the rom update to use MMS, I have asked for help from Orange and the modaco website .. and unfortunately, no luck but a pointer to this glorious forum from the modaco website.
Ta in advance ..
mrplatypus
orange comes with 2003 and the newer version is 2003SE
2000 pure is very old
read this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=18287
Apologies ...
Sorry, I meant to type .. WM2003 as opposed to WM2000 and WM2003SE to WM2000SE..
WM2003 to WM2003SE wiv MMS!
In another post on this site (with me in it) the files which reside in the extended rom after the upgrade were uploaded to this forum.
This has provided me with my mms and I am very much happier.
However, I am still after really really BASIC instruction and the files to upgrade the Operating System on the phone, from WM2003 to WM2003SE (or greater?)
Much appreciated.
mrPlatypus
the post i linked to is the easiest way i think
2003SE is not official or even originally in English it's an
Chinese rom hand translated by people in this forum so i dont think we
can expect an official easy operator install for it
also you know that flashing your orange pda would void the warranty ?
voided warranty ..
Ok, I was asking to find out how difficult it would be -- my current contract with Orange officially runs out in September where I'll be upgrading my phone/pda anyway ..
Thanks for the advice and the pointers on legality.

Hello everyone,
Please I have a very big problem that I would like someone to help me. I have a Dopod CHT 9000 which is Chinese language or ROM. I would like someone to give me direct link to where I can download WWE ROM to upgrade it?
Also I would like to know if I can upgrade it with Cingular 8525 WWE ROM? Please mods I need your help.
Thanks in advance.
All the official ROM's were removed from this forum on the insistence of M$ - I don't even know if we are allowed to post links to these roms, so maybe no one can openly help.
But more to the point, since Feb this year you have had:
MDA Vario II - you want to sim unlock.
Qtek 8100 - you want to sim unlock.
XDA Wiza 200 ? - You want to change language from German to English.
2 x SPV C600 - You want to sim unlock.
Dopod CHT 9000 - You want to upgrade Chinese rom to WWE rom.
Either you are absolutely useless with phones, or dealing in them (either way is no problem) - BUT with so many phones with similar 'problems' I'd have thought it more appropriate that you learn how to do some of the work yourself - try to RTFW instead of your 'Urgent' posts.

@ach2 nice work my dear watson
@babyelephantt
read the wiki all the ROMs are in there, and if you have indeed upgraded/possesed so many device...why are you asking this?? you REALLY should know by now that "please help me!" is not a good way to ask for help.
I also stand corrected - I thought these Roms had been removed so didn't even bother looking
The link to the WWE roms is here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades Scroll to the right to find the download mirrors

I have found an English ROM for it. [Dopod Asia WWE UNI_DopodAsia_11369_183_10402_ship.exe and CHT_ENG.exe] which one can I use to upgrade the ROM?
No one can tell you which rom to use - any should work. Just try them and see if you like them. I've tried all the Dopod WWE roms on my vodafone VPA1605 with no problem (before WM6 came out).
Try also reading mrvanx's guide - it's in his signature in post no. 3 of this thread

Does anyone know where i can get the official hTc z rom from. Or does anyone have it.
Does anyone know?
dude u r just asking 4 truble I can c it cumin....
ppl here r being very polite by not commenting....
for starters wots with the Z part of ur question. I hae seen lots n neva seen the refernece to Z, so I will asume just a n00b qu.
other than that, well erm per haps you could use the search function, or maybe try www.ggogle.com as a great source of information.
but would suggest, b4 u get shot down, that u simply read the forum and try to avoid asking dumb questions and making urself look like something I hope u r not.
and honestly, if u r so [email protected] as to ask then u r way way 2 [email protected] to try n take the risk.
that's me being nice, don't make me cum bak.
seriously 'HTC z' does exist. Google it if you dont belive me. Its looks like a vario 2.
yeah I googled it, did you?
http://msmobiles.com/news.php/5369.html
old... it refers to the hermes/tytn and various other code names.
it is referred as WM5 which is the official rom of these devices b4 upgrading...
so u want the rom that ur device was installed with originally? cause I can't think of any reasoon 2 go backwards except warranty.
it is not switching on but i can get into bootloader so somebody else advised me to reinstall the official rom. so now do you have any ideas as to where i can get it from?
if u r certain that it is a hermes/tytn and is an htc device (dopod) I would be installing the official htc wm6 device.
but make sure u have the device right first. dunno wot yours looks like.
read the forum and rules for rom upgrades first in wiki before if u have never done it.
still never heard of the z rom so not sure if it was early or u r in the wrong forum.
do u have any specific details? did u buy it? find it? or steal it?
I wud upgrade n bugger the original rom.

I bought it from Japan but it doesn't work here in the uk. I left everything there which was stupid of me. But it is a Hermes. IT is a Herm 100 i dont know if that means anything. 'HERMES-T12' according to HTC themselves. so where can i get the rom from.
The phone looks like this

http://www.docomo.biz/html/product/htcz/pop_01.html
http://www.pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=539
It's a Dopod 838pro.
install the dopod wm6 rom.
Excuse me if im wrong but isnt that a completely different phone. The network is Ntt do co mo. Where can i get this rom from anyway.
Hermes HTC TyTN / O2 XDA trion / T-Mobile MDA Vario II / Vodafone VPA Compact III / Orange SPV M3100 / Dopod CHT 9000 / Dopod 838 Pro / hTc Z / Qtek 9600 / iMate JasJam / Cingular 8525 / Swisscom XPA v1605 / SoftBank X01HT / Vodafone PDA 1605
they're all the same. You didn't bother going here didi you ?

Next, did you even bother to search , you do know that there is a search tool on the this forum, it does actually work!!

Ridiculous!
I did look around thats why i suggested that earlier in the thread. I did say it was under Hermes. I thought that i had to install a particular Rom from the carrier 'NTT DO CO MO'. SO where can i get any of these ROMs from.
do you know if this is the rom that i need. The SetHSDPA one
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Utils
have you put HardSPL on it?
Do that then you can flash any ROM on it. Try it!!!
Try this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280683
this is the offical ROM for your DOCOMO HTC Z. There has not been a WM6 release for either of the Japanese Hermes.
Thank you for the replys.
Do you know if this will definitely work providing i do it correctly and are there any risks of making it worse.

Based on your responses and questions, and inability to navigate XDA site, you SHOULD NOT try flashing your ROM. You will end up bricking your device.
Just my two cents.
Cingular 8285
vp3G/1.48/SSPL
OK ... I try to claim my hermes, but I have flashed ROM there. So I think it would be best to flash there official ROM.
I have found link in the wiki for the ExtRom, but it's dead probably.
So i desperatly need your help.
What about your Telcos support site, they generally hae the firmware upgrade there for a long time. Would be best to check...
Cheers...
