Hi there,
I worked for a company who bought over 20 i-mate with ROM 1.66.
Unfortunately, we had about 5 devices which suffer from Hard-Reset few times each.
I read somewhere that the solution might be an upgrade to Rom 1.72
cuase the Hard Reset is a known issue of the 1.66..
I'm going to upgrade them devices soon, but would like you to device me
if the new Rom actually solve the Hard-Reset issue or not?
Thanks in advanced,

thanks for your answer.
but, just one more quick question:
have you ever suffer from the Hard Reset issue
before the upgrade?
Are you familiar with the issue?

Since I read a lot about radio and bluetooth improvements in rom 1.72, I would like to upgrade my T-Mobile MDA II (rom 1.60.00 wwe) too.
But I would also like to keep the 'special' T-Mobile application (as far as I know those are in extended rom).
Is it possible to use the only the radio and rom from for example the imate or qtek 1.72 rom and use the 1.60.36 extended rom included in the latest T-Mobile rom published?
(I know I will have to edit country codes and all, the question is just to know wheter or not putting together such a set will succeed)
Which 1.72 rom would be best: The Qtek one (released today) or the imate one?

My friend bought a brand new i-mate loaded with the 1.66 ROM and bootloader 1.06
He was suffering from the frequent Hard rest alot.
He tried upgrading to the latest 1.72 ROM but that didn't solve any problems. And the device seem to still go through frequent Hard Reset.
I am guessing this has something to do with the bootloader's version?
So my question is..
Is there anyone with the same bootloader's version (1.06) and same ROM version (1.66 or 1.72) also that have no Hard reset problems? :?
Thanks
