Hi, everyone -- Orange (UK) has just released a WM6.1 update for their Sedna here:
http://www.business.orange.co.uk/se...=Phone&pagename=Business&t=SMEDeviceDownloads
Has anyone tried it? I'm tempted to, but I've got an unlocked phone from HTC (not the Orange version) and am concerned about compatibility. Does anyone know if the Orange update will work properly with the HTC unlocked model? Or if HTC is planning to release their own update?
Thanks, Alan
hi..thanks for the link to this orange rom..i've been looking to upgrade to 6.1
i can can confirm all went fine.
i have an unlocked htc orange 6500 that had been unlocked and all is still working fine.

hi is it an orange rom with the orange logo ? or the new htc 6.1 rom ?
thanks for the answer
ttiittii
not sure what you mean.....there is a square orange logo in the middle of the screen as it "boots up"
after that its just wm 6.1...no branding or banners etc on screen at all
htc.com provide an update for the P6500 rom here :
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=46&cat=2&dl_id=270
but you need a valid serial number (direct htc , not and orange machine or else)
i have an orange serial (HT809Gxxxxxx)
if someone can provide the way to arrange the serial ....
thanks in advance
have a look here for a mirror

many thanks
but if someone knows the way to "arrange" the s.n we can choose the language on the dedicated htc site
ttiittii
I'll see if I can grab some others later
If I forget pm me tonight and I'll do it then
I seem to only be able to download the wwe update i'm afraid
ok thanks again!
if someone knows how to modified s.n for a successfull registration on htc site?
thanks in advance
ttiittii
yes ttiittii that was the web address i was using to get a htc rom upgrade and like you my serial number was a HT820Gxxxxxxx
and it just says "not for you" rather annoying seeing as its a htc phone with just a tiny orange logo on the back.
but i have to say the 6.1 upgrade i got from orange is brilliant...stuff i use for work is loads faster and the bluetooth hands free is now problem free.
it just seems to be wm6.1...i can't find any "orange introduced" stuff on the pda at all...you know like o2 sticks o2 active on and crappy o2 logo's in the title bar that you can't seem to shift...thats nothing at all
just wm6.1

I have the Orange SPV M3100 and was wondering when (and if) they release a ROM upgrade, where will it be posted?
O2, TMobile and Voda all have download pages for various things, but Ornage don't seem to do this.
Now come on. Please put a ? on the end of your subject! I nearly wet myself when I saw your post, thinking that they'd pulled their fingers out and posted a new ROM :wink:
When they do post it, it will be at
http://www.business.orange.co.uk/se...4132772045&extarg1=Phone&t=SMEDeviceDownloads
LOL Sorry never thought of that :lol:
That's FUNNY!
I followed the link above to the Orange page about the M3100. It says that standby time is 6 days! ROFL!
I get about 1 day out of mine - and I hardly make any calls!
Being a little inaccurate - ok. Getting 18% of "official" figure - that's just plain old BS...
Have heard Orange won't be releasing an update until January so don't get your hopes up for one soon.

The link you provide doesn't have their first and only ROM. Does anyone have it. I need it very badly since I want to play with upgrading and using hard spl. I'm afraid if I brick it again while upgrading I'll have a chance to flash the original ROM.
Does anyone know when they will have an upgrade? Will they ever???????

I was waiting for 6 months. Gave up in the end and just took the cover and screen off my bricked SPV and put it on a knackered Vario ii.
I'm not sure what Orange's thinking will be with updating this ROM - if they start selling SPVs with Windows Mobile 6 they may just not bother releasing an Updated ROM at all (unless the need arises to release a newer ROM for handsets pre-installed with WM6 - in which case I doubt the older WM5 handsets will be supported by such an upgrade due to licensing issues).
Much as I would've liked to find a ROM update I really don't think they'll bother: there are no real issues with the original ROM (at least I never came across any).
I Cooked A WM6 Orange Ron Using Bepes Kitchen. It Has All Of The Orange Settings Installed, But It's WM6. Use The UK Orange Package Posted In Bepes Thread.

will that work?
Orange id needs to be 001 not 008 otherwise it'll say invalid vendor ID.
I've the same problem from November 2006 !!!!!! Please a rom with 001 cid !!!! Thanks from Italy
How does your cooked ROM perform? Does it have all the Orange settings for GPRS/MMS etc? Was thinking of cooking it as although I currently use WMXL, I would really like the Orange settings built in.

Bebes thread has a striped ROM(operator settings only I think). What I'm after is a complete shipped ROM for just in case I brick it again.
My intention is to keep the bootloader to 1.04 and use Hard-Spl. Then I'm able to upgrade to anything without worries.
Ok, Well The Cooked WM6 Rom Works Fine, @findus Yes All The Orange Settings Are Included, No Problems As Of Yet.
@sniper258 I Also Recompiled The Original Orange UK Rom From A Dump Someone Had Made, It Is The Original OS That Is Supplied With Your Orange SPV M3100. Search For Rom Reconstruction And You'll Find It.
Cheers
@sniper258 From The Sounds Of It You Still Have The Original Rom Installed, Could You Tell Me What Radio Rom It Ships With Originally So I Can Create A Proper Original Rom That Includes The Same IPL,SPL,OS And Radio.
IPL - 1.01
SPL - 1.04
OS - Orange UK 001
Radio - ??
Just A Quick Check You Are From The UK Yes?
Cheers
As stated the cooked rom as above does add all of the settings but the battery icon on the top bar does not work, after install it stays as the clock.
Changing the registry to show the via ms shell does not work either as the battery icon does appear but does not function.
@the.drone
Is This The WM6 ROM? I Didn't Know That Was The Case, I Use SPB File Explorer Which Uses A Today Plugin Whos Battery Meter Works. But I Can See How Annoying That Would Be.
Off Topic Where Is Lake Vyrnwy In Wales?

this is on either the aku3.3 or wm6 roms, have been trying to find a fix for the past few weeks.

A new english ROM for the Hermes has been uploaded to XDA-Developers ftp:
version: 1.21.116.4
radio: 1.05.02.00
CID: T-MOB007
BootLoader: 1.06
language: WWE
Download link and ROM details posted on the wiki shipped complete updates page.
ruu_hermes_tmhu_1.21.116.4_1.05.02.00_wwe_ship.exe
Please note this is from T-Mobile Hungary (CID T-MOB007) and not from T-Mobile UK, and it has bootloader 1.06 on it.
Thanks to the person who uploaded it!
Enjoy!
Hungarian ROM in the UK
Bought my vario 2 on e-bay and it did not come with a CD I have called up T-mobile and they wont give me one. When I switch on my phone it says "test only not for sale"...I basically looking to reinstall the t-mobile uk rom hoping that it will removed this message but can not find it anywhere. Is this Hungarian ROM going to work on a uk phone ? Are the GPRS & 3G settings the same ?
I am clueless any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
I guess you got a preproduction hermes version with a super cid and 300mhz processor...just look in the hermes wifi in preproduction section...and you will get all of ur answer....
Hi,
Has anyone tried to install this ROM yet? Is it in English?
Thanks
Msuk
Yea did someone already test this ROM ??
It should be in English, given that it has WWE in its title.
Very interesting. The very first T-Mobile Hungary ROM that has ever hit the internets.
(T-Mo Hu never releases ROMs... if you want an upgrade, you have to take it to the service and let them do it... they still sell their Wizards with AKU 1.1.1 ROMs)
Update works
Updated my Dutch T-Mobile MDA Vario II (2).
Took some time, first made Super CID and SIM lock free.
After upgrade the regional settings are indeed Hungarian but the ROM itself is English.
Thanks Y'all!
I've just updated my (I think is the right term) rom using
RUU_HERMES_HTC_WWE_1[1].35.255.2_1.35.255.102_1.08.00.10_SHIP.
Now the installation was fine but some of the original setting on the t-mobile rom are missing, like the quick launch 'running program' button on the screen, the 3g connection symbol as well as a few quick launch icon that use to be at the top of the main screen ' web & walk , contacts, notes. These have all disappeared, is there a way of getting the t-mobile vario 2 setting back or at least a way of configuring the keys to how it was with t-mobile. I think what i've currently got is the HTC original rom hence the HTC logo when I now turn the phone on.
just wondered how this rom compares to "HTC South Africa Version: 1.35.255.2" ??

All,
I need to get hold of the original shipping Orange UK M3100 ROM, I have had a look at the RapidShare links here and the one posted is Romainian
If you flash with this All Connections/GPRS/ etc dont work, have tied setting up the comms settings from info available on the web.... no luck.
Only option is to reinstate the original ROM, anyone know were I can download this. Orange site has no link....
TIA
is it here?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
Nope ...
Nope.... this is the Romanian ROM, need UK ROM ...
I Manage To Get My Orange Settings To Work On Any Rom.
Just Follow These Instructions. Hope They Help Their Not Formatted Just Copied And Pasted Of The Web.
Cheers
As far as I know, only the Romanian one is available.
I'm using the Romanian Orange ROM in the UK on my M3100 (believe it or not, it's the only one I've tried where everything works perfectly - if a little slower than I'd like).
I've got a T-Mobile SIM in mine, and to get the data connections working I had to remove all of the preinstalled Orange connections from the Settings menu, then I used a registry editor to delete all the remaining Orange connection bits which I think were in "HKCU\Comm\RasBook".
Once you've done that, try entering the Orange UK settings manually (as provided by mousey), and it should work?
Also Orange UK Have Never Released An Update To Their Shipped Roms So That Means Theres No Upgrade Tool And Therfore You Won't Be Able To Flash Your Device With A UK Orange Rom.
Cheers
This is the same for a UK tmobile rom...there is no offical release so you will not be able to roll back to your shipping uk rom.

this should be the UK ROM:
http://rapidshare.com/files/17338987/HER_ORRO_123702_1060400_WWE_SHIP.exe
Recently I had to return a Hermes to Orange and I used the components from this to restore my device to their OS etc.
if for whatever reason that turns out not to be the UK one (it should) then I have it on my computer and can send it to you somehow.

I am now downloading what is on your rapidshare link, but it appears to me to be the Romanian one.
I Would Also Like The Original Orange ROM As It Would Come In Handy If I Ever Have To Take My Phone Back In For Repair.

I just looked and that is the ROM version I have; I've installed it on a PDA and it's in english; how can you tell it's Romanian exactly?

Go to your "Home Page" in IE, tries to go to orange.ro, also in regional settings it is set to Romanian
Could Someone Extract The Connections Settings CAB From An Orange ROM As This Would Be Really Helpful To Anyone Changing Their Phone Images.

that means I've sent Orange a PDA with the Romanian ROM... just as well it was a swap!
to be honest though... if that's the only customisation difference, it'd be trivial to rectify that by changing the setting post-install

I've finally managed to get WM6 on my 3100
However took the opportunity to dump the rom I was using before hand just in case...
This rom was the rom the phone was shipped with (UK SPV m3100), however I had used pof's v2 unlocker when I first got it to unlock it, would this have modified to rom in anyway? Or just the radio rom?
So I have a (what I believe to be) a UK m3100, I have a Part02.raw (written with no errors) if anyone would like to reconstruct it.
Official T-Mobile and Telecom own by T-Mobile show possibility to change WM5 to WM6 without pay.
Build is newer to HTC ( 17745) from T-Mobile is 18125.

I just got my ameo a week ago and already upgraded to wm6 through that link
t-mob alos updated a ton of other handsets FINALLY
including the vario II to wm6 , and a newer wm5 for the universal
BTW NOTE TO THOSE THAT USE REMOTE DESKTOP
UK T-Mobile firmware for WM6 appears to have it MISSING, i even tried hard reset and let it configure again and thought even the missing icon problem that was still present even in wm6 ( icons go AWOL) was the cause. it's not i had to actually install it from scratch ( there's a cab on this forum under i think it was development and hacking, just search for it )
Hi xacsx,
try again without SPACE and D at the end, this should work (in my case, it did).

Im not sure if official room have this toshiba strips as well coze this one not as original 6.1ver but it has all the original orange staff and i was able to unlock my phone with this room. I hade some Rooms with Sense installed but battery drain far to fast in 4.or 5 hours but with this room i was using the phone for couple of hours even with wifi and battery still in about 90% so it looks very good to me.
