I recently spotted a great deal on eBay. A Siemens SX-56 with the 64MB PPC Techs RAM upgrade, java ivo 1918 leather carrying case, 2 write-shield protectors, a car charger, cradle and charger, plus 2 64MB SD Cards and 1 128MB SD card.
It was listed at a modest price, so I just had to bid, thinking perhaps to sell my current SX56 should I win. Well, it turns out that I was the winning bidder for all of the above for less than $200 US.
So now that I've bragged a little, on to my question. The SX-56 I bought in January came with the bootloader version 5.22. The SX-56 I just received from that auction has version 5.15.
Which makes me wonder, is there a chronology to the bootloaders that anyone is aware of, and could this give me an idea about how much older the unit I just bought is than the unit I already had?
Not that it matters much, but I thought I'd pose the question. Any thoughts?
I can't remeber the details, but if you search here you will find a topic addressing some problems with specific bootloader versions (I remember for example that 5.22 can't sense SD card with .nbf ROM file, but 5.17 can).
So, your new device might be patched by a different bootloader to over come some issues in 5.22
for bootloaders a higher version means a newer version.
but it is handy to keep a bootloader 5.15 on your device, since it does not come with inconvenient protection mechanisms.
my 'fixbootloader-tool' and the XdaTools both come with a 5.15 image, also the roms from the romkitchen contain a 5.15 bootloader.
neither bootloader can handle an nbf copied to a sd card.
both can only handle sd cards written in a special format ( like that generated by xdarit or XdaTools )
does anyone know if this is possible? I want to use this phone in my car after strictly for mp3 playback, and possible gps use (serial connection only option).
thanks, a newbie

I have a t-mobile wm2003 phone edition
with expired one year contract.
t-mobile coverage not good enough in a car for data in southern ca.
going back to sprint.
phone only fetches 100$ on ebay because it is too similar to the previous rendition from t-mobile.
it is a wallaby 1.5 (upgraded rom to wm2003, instead of pocketpc 2002)
Hello,
I ordered a new full set housing for my Cingular 8125 and it should come in the next week or two. When I get it, whats the best way to remove the original housing?
I have absoluteley no Idea how to change the housing, but don't forget to make pictures while you change.
Thanks,
Andre
Where did you get the new housing and is it different from the original one?

The 8125 wizard casing is all over ebay but some sellers charge upto $90 for it! You should find dissassembly instructions in the service manual on the FTP site. I have the MDA vario wizard casing ( no stubby aeriel ) listed on ebay under id fluffcat1.

I too would like to change my 8125 housing. I dropped mine the day after I bought it. I think the stock case was my problem. I hate tucking it in and out of that thing. I have another one coming and want to get another housing.
GSXR_6:
Where can I locate the FTP site. Sorry, I'm new and this is my first post.
I also thought of reworking the color of the housing once the warranty is passed.
Here we go, 3rd attempt (having issues with attaching file.)
HTC Wizard WIZA200 housing with MDA T-MOBILE written on bottom left and right:
Ebay Item Number 130005148788
2 more housings (almost double the price of previous) with T-MOBILE written on bottom center:
Ebay Item Number 9733402561
Ebay Item Number 9141941613
And the attached service manual is the one from the FTP just renamed from Prodigy to Wiard so i could locate it easier on my pc.
Also when disassembling your device watch out for the clips, i've broken a total of like 4 or 5 on my device, although when all put back together it is good as new.
ok, stupid thing doesn't want to attach.go to the Wiki of this site and theres an ftp tutorial of how to get to it.
Can someone please link me to the ftp page where I can download the instructions on how to replace my wizard's housing? I can't find it on the ftp site.

That's my auction
They are both original BTW, mine are t-mobile UK 'MDA vario' cases and Che_sir's are US spec - the only difference being the placing of the logos.
I only have limited quantities ( 2 left for now) and che_sir seems to have loads of 'em.
Che_sir also has digitisers and other parts that I simply cannot get hold of :-(
But I'm cheaper
Richard
HAHA, I think i messaged you on ebay asking about other parts for the wizard. Well i might have to buy one of the cases, depending on the damaged wizard i just bought on ebay for parts. We'll see.
Cingular 8125 & T-Mobile MDA
Even though these 2 are the varient from Wizard, but is the housing interchangable? What I mean is buying a Cingular housing for T-Mobile MDA. Is there a good place to buy T-Mobile MDA housing other than ebay? Thanks!! 8)
Check the FTP.

Disassembly of the 8125 (Dopod 838 case) is a little bit different from the Tmobile mda (Qtek 9100) casing. I still haven't found instructions for the 8125 but for the mda, its on the ftp site.

Sorry for bumping up an old thread but anybody ever find a manual or figure out how to do it? Debating whether or not to get a new housing or purchase a clear case and paint it...

i didn't realize the that the 8125 was the wiza 100 (and it looks imo)
how different can it be, is it not just the shape of the housing, meaning the clips and principles must be same/similar
anyway here is another guide to disassembly (actually the stylus fix) still of the wiza200 but the pictures may be clearer if it may help

I need to replace my brick'd TyTN today. I'm traveling for business next week and need a device. I like the look of the JASJAM and 8525 better than the TyTN, but I'm not sure which model I should buy. I would just buy the 8525 from Cingular, but it doesn't look like it will be out within a few days, as was originally promised. With all the models of the Hermes out there, which would you prefer if you were buying again? Thanks
BTW...my current TyTN will be off to Germany for repairs. I'll probably Ebay one or the other, or give it to my Dad, when it gets back from its repair journey.
Are you travelling in or out of the country?
I'm staying in the country for this trip
Well, the hardware issues (inoperative flash, bad keys, SA) on the TyTN seem to be worked out. No US operators officially carry the HERMES yet however so overseas repairs are going to be an issue.
Mu thoughts would be to get another TyTN and sell the repaired one on eBay when you get it back... Or keep it for a TyTN experimental mule. Maybe HTC will put in the SA fix too as a matter of course on your old one.
Heck, can we even get operator branded HERMES devices here?
I hear ya...I'm going to ship it next week and see what happens. In the meantime, I'm going to see if I can get a decent price on the JASJAM, as I do like the look a bit better.
Thanks!
I sound a bit like I work for Virgin (I don't honest).
but a:
1. DAB radio
2. Some TV stations (for 3 months on PAYG, but BBC1 will continue)
3. A WM5 smartphone (with bluetooth, EDGE and quad-band)
4. MP3 player
etc. for just over 100 quid. seems a nice toy to me!
If you go here
http://www.virginmobile.com/vm/lifestyleLanding.do
and make a note of the code, although its been 14000 every time Ive been there, you get 20% off!!
Plus if you go to the site through quidco you get 10% back as well!
I'm sorely tempted by this, despite the reviews, if only yuo could get it unlocked and still get the tv I'd buy it!
damn, bugger. You are right. Comes down to £90 inc. packing. Well I could send back and re-order. Or I may not bother ... too much hassle.
BBC1 is free continously. But I am looking at this as more of a WM5 smartphone to run games on and muck around with and as a pocket DAB player. It gets good reviews for the DAB radio, and good ones are around £99.
The main down side with this phone are:
1. Squijy keyboard
2. No wifi
Otherwise its got quite good reviews:
http://www.coolsmartphone.com/article696.html
I'm quite tempted by this phone myself, but could you answer a quick question for me, please?
Once the phone is unlocked (as your other post) and another sim is inserted, would I still be able to receive the TV? I've read elsewhere that Virgin charge a fiver a month for the TV, which implies to me that it will only work with a Virgin sim in the phone
I've got 6 months of a tmobile deal to go, after which I am looking to get one of the ntl/Virgin sims with 300mins + 300 texts for a tenner a month.

1. I have succeeded in app. unlocking, but not sim unlocking. So still to come.
2. You can sim unlock from a commercial service. Do a google.
3. If it is sim unlocked, you can insert a sim from another provider and use the phone fine. The TV will also work. However at least every month, virgin change the crypt key on the TV channels. So from time to time your TV will go off and you will need to reinsert the Virgin SIM to get the new crypt key.
4. The DAB will work regardless
rgds
Thanks for the info, Colonel!
I've just posted on another forum to find out if the ntl offer will class as a monthly contract to get the tv for free. I'll post back when I get an answer
this phone can be unlocked either for free from virgin by ordering the code( you must have used at least 30 quid since you have had your phone tho) or you can get it unlocked instantly from imei-check but they take payment thru paypal,and as most of us know paypal are as reliable as an english cricket team in australia so i stay welll clear
but the virgin option is pretty cool,although wouldnt know wat to do with the 30 quid once topped up as virgin services are pretty useless

Lobster 700TV (HTC monet)
I've got one. I bought it for the DAB radio which is excellent.
The main draw back I've got is the Bluetooth A2DP issue. It don't work from the box, although the manual says it does! I've got back to Virgin who are presently investigating (first response was "it don't do A2DP" but they had to rethink coz it's in the manual).
I'm looking at the Tornado A2DP hack. Tried it without 'apps unlock' and got insufficent permissions.
So next step is to unloack and try again......but will wait until virgin get back to me.
Happy with the rest of the features. But I'm not a heavy phone user. The other niggle I could mention is the keypad ...... keys a bit small and have to take care. But it is usable just. I'm not abig texter and could imagine that texting could be a pain.
If I'm sending messages I use my PDA with the Lobster as a bluetooth modem. This works well.
Overall very satisfied. But got to sort the A2DP issue.
Lobster now FREE with 12 months FREE Tariff
