hi ppl,
until yesterday when I expirienced speakerphone problem my wallaby used 2003 se and it was quite ok beside some known problems as messing up the memory card, side buton not working... after the speakerphone problem I installed 2002 and get suprised that I almost see no difference, beside that wallby is more responsive under 2002 than under 2003 se (well all of us expirience on PCs that every new windows is slower than previous), if we put away the fact that some programs wont work bcoz this is 2002 is there any other obvius difference or problem with 2002 coz I dont see them right now...
Maybe I could keep 2002 installed on wallaby ...
(Im not an expert for flashing and logically speaking dont think that flashing of the rom have anything with the signal /isnt that connected to radio stack ?/ but looks like that I have more bars now in the signal area ???)
BR !

Hi ALL
I been reading through all the post for the past week or so.. and contemplating upgrading to WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG on my 02 XDA .
I check out ROMkitchen and created my ROM but I deselected all additional software I Just wanted the bare bone WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG. I have not installed it yet. (BIG THANKS TO XDA-developers )
some users posted that they had good and bad experience with WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 . The reason why i created this topic is to collate disadvantage and advantage using WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG (due to not final version if I'm correct).
I check here and the Enhancements are damn good which should of been support by PPC 2002 Phone Edition .
a) Can user posted disadvantage and advantage using WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG i.e. annoying bugs http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1945
b) What's your personnel percentage based on WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG? i.e. User ability
c) Will you port back to PPC 2002 ? i.e. WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 Stability dose not meet my needs
Share your thoughts and experience please if possible
Well to be honest with you so far the device and the WM2003 are very stable together.
I am using QTEK 32MB with ROM 4.00.05 and i can assure you that the speed is even better and the performance is great.
Now that doesnt mean its bug free there are still some small problems here and there as any normal ROM.
My advice upgrade it... and then you will see that you will like it allot you wont downgrade.
By the way "Test Not for Sale" screen when reseting the device is great lol 8)
Frankly, my experience with my 02 hasn't been all that stellar. i do get some slowdowns, but i don't think i can go back to SER1.2's smsing... smsing in the new os is spectacular, well worth the other drawbacks.
my 2 cents
I've got 4.00.05 installed. After a soft reset, a white square box with a grey rectangle over it comes up on the screen- looks like some sort of dialog is trying to come up but isn't all there. There's also a (x) in the top corner. Clicking that brings back the today screen.
Has anyone else noticed this? It happened also when I was using the 4.00.01 ROM.

This is the SIM Toolkit. If you can still boot, simply remove the stk.lnk file from \Windows\Startup. Otherwise create a new ROM in the kitchen: I added the option to not include that link earlier today.
Sweet. Just took out the stk link.
So far this ROM seems pretty stable. I'm still having some issues with the SD card though.
It seems if I remove the card and add files with my card reader, then put it back in the phone, it's not seeing the changes.
4.00.05 vs 4.00.01
I have a fairly vanilla ROMKitchen 4.00.05.
The SIM toolkit is annoying (empty dialog) that pops up after a soft reset.
4.00.01 was very stable for me. If anything 4.00.05 appears a little less stable on GRPS. It keeps/makes the connection OK, but the network (TCP/IP side) seems to get confused until I power off the radio or reset sometimes.
I'm not going to bother going back to .01, but I won't bother updating any more devices to .05 if they already have .01.

Are you on T-mobile ? The whole GPRS network seems very unreliable since Saturday afternoon - I had problems in CO, then CA on Tuesday (though late morning was fine) and again today in CO. My machine ROM is unchanged in the last 10 days.

Confirmed: we see that too. Annoying. But fortunately the 'Answer' on the screen always works, otherwise 4.00.05 would be unusable.

EasyTweak does all sorts of PPC2002-related registry tweaks. You can't really expect it to be very useful on new OS versions. I've set it to 'PPC2002 only' in the kitchen.
Hi,
I tried the 4.00.01 and got many bugs ... (bad reception ...)
Yesterday I put the 4.00.05 and all seems going well. Good GSM reception and for the moment no problem.
Thx to Jeff and his kitchen
does anyone know if and when the new windows mobile 2003 se be out? the one which enables you to go to landscape mode? and is this rom based on the old versions?
cheers
rob
there is somebody asking that question every month or so
some people say oct 2004
but nobody know official as far as i know
and is this rom based on the old versions
Click to expand...

not really sure what you mean by that
if you mean if it's based on the whole new windows CE v5 then no it's
SE as in second edition
so it's just the second edition of wm2003 which is based on windows CE 4 or 3 i forget
To the Moderator...
It was suggested, after the last such post like this, for about the ten thousandth time, that it might be worthwhile making it STICKY, that win2003se is NOT OUT YET etc.
If this wasn't done, can I re-suggest it now Peter?
Before all going crazy... about WM2003SE for the QTK2020
Yes it exist,
No it is not avalaible...
And the worse still to come :
it require a valid licence and ACTIVATION...
Bad time is coming....
big brother is on the move ?

What do you people have against Nyditot Virtual Display?! I've been using it for years in my MDA - 640x480 landscape - just a little work with fonts and cleartype + undock keyboard and you basically have comfort of PC screen! You don't need any SE!
The main problem I have with it, is that has caused my i-mate to freeze more than once.
I'll wait for SE . . .
NEVER had a single problem with NVD! :?:
mda3 runs se, we might be lucky as hardware seems to be almost identical, apart from keyboard and wlan
nvd works fine on an xda1 but on an xda2 it totally mongs it up, works a lil then goes fubar...
Right guys,
I've been watching the work that Buzz and co. have been doing with awe. I think he/they are doing a grand job.
The only thing stopping me from installing 2005 is the lack of IntelliDialer.
This is the main thing that I upgraded from 2003 to 2003SE for - landscape mode I can sorta live without most of the time - but not IntelliDialer.
Is there any way to get IntelliDialer working on 2005?
If so, please point me in the right direction and I'm gonna have that puppy running on my phone quicker than u can say Jazzy Jack Rabbit.
Cheers,
ND
Ok, so if there's no IntelliDialer replacement, could ppl let me know what they find to be the quickest and easiest way for dialing contacts on WM2005.
I use IntelliDialer exclusively so don't really wanna give up on it.
but still the wm5 "contacts" just like a 75% intellidialer...hmmm :roll:
hi all newcomer here so be patient, have upgraded to wm 2005 but dont like can i go back to a windows 2003 rom that is not ORANGE bias :?:
Yes you can, but not not without any risk. When I went back to 2003SE, I had some problems with it. My PDA didn't work for almost a day before I find the solution. I am not sure that this is working for you, but it worked for me. I have done it with a new installed computer with only activesync 3.7 version on it.
Good luck

I upgraded from WinMobile 2003 to Windows Mobile 5 and found it nice but slow. I reversed the steps and went back to SIN's version of Windows 2003 SE available here on XDA-Developers. Frankly it is better than Mobile 5. Yes, there are the same landscape screen benefits, but man is it fast ... especially when you set Xscalar to FAST.
So instead of an expensive paperweight, I still have a beaut XDA with lots more speed and functionality. The SBP add-on for Windows Theme Generator works a treat ... so all around I am happy.
hiya,
bit new to all this, so some advice from you guys is needed!
what are the best options for the m1000?
not sure if there are different versions of the phone so give you as much detail as i can find?
cpu intel pxa263
speed 400mhz
ram 128mb
model ph10a
the main app i need is excel, plus a prog to print via ir to my dj450 printer(have been using printpocketce)
hope i have not missed anything important??
thanks in advance
there are 2003SE roms wm5 roms wm6 early roms
personaly if your device works as it should now i prob would leave it alone as i cant say if printing would work with later roms
thanks for the reply!
cant say its been working well?...had a few random hangs from time to time and there has been times where you get a call no ringtone heard and no way to answer it? h/ware buttons didnt work,touch screen button flashes like its been pressed but still didnt answer
only way i found to sort it out was a soft reset
so the main reason for the upgrade was an improvement in phone function rather than a printing issue?
think the main question i meant to ask really was which is the most stable version for this type of phone,most of the bugs sorted out?
thanks again

Had a lot of hanging, on my M1000, but after upgrading to the WM2003SE WWE, the speed of the machine has improved a lot, and it does no longer hang, allmost no matter what I do.
I found that some of the build in Orange apps were the reason for "hangtime" and slowdowns, because if I tryed to install them, from the original Ext-ROM, all the problems came back.
So my experience is, that "Genuine English WM2003 SE " http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=230279 is a major improvement, to the Orange standard WM2003
I upgraded my SPV M1000 from Orange ROM to WM5 and now to Tofclock WM6 ROM, and it works fine. All features are ok for me, it's great!!!
thanks for the reply guys
would like to try tofclock wm6, if im going to do it may as well go the whole hog!
does anyone know if you can print via ir in office on wm6?...or am i going to need some more software??
