Has anyone figured out what the difference is with this new ROM specifically for MTN users in South Africa? I am downloading it at the mo, because I am on MTN. I've also had a few problems with the official new ROM (13076_164_10900) when I tried to install my usual apps (pocket plus, pocket informant, SPB Diary, Calligrapher, etc) - the phone would hang if I tried to use it after it went into suspend mode. V irritating! I didn't have this problem with the previous ROMS from either imate or 02. Now I'm just using it with the standard out of the box software and no extra apps installed. Works fine. But I feel naked without my customisations...
Maybe there's some fantastic improvement with this new ROM. Maybe even stereo Bluetooth. Probably not though. No doubt just some wonderfully unique settings to brand it as an MTN phone.
I'll let you guys know when I've done the update.

Zayne,
I had similar problems and it came down to Pocketplus preventing the device coming out of suspend! If you install it last (or re-install it) then I found it corrected the problem.

Everything is working Well for Me
i am using the Standard WWE build and not the MTN build, I suppose the only change is the MTN menu
I am not using SBP PocketPlus anymore
Im Using cLaunch for Today Icons and Magicbutton for Close
in cLaunch link the shortcuts in Windows\Start Menu instead of where the applications are installed and you will not have slow response
The JasJar with the new ROM ROCKS!!!! :lol:
I'm starting to miss the bugs.. Was fun and challenging trying to get the unit to perform faster... Now its plain fluent :)

I am using the new MTN build..
I have not noticed any differences thought, but I assume they must be there. I guess if you are using MTN, you should probably swap over. Can't hurt?

I'm also using the MTN SA Build. Don't know why there is a special one for MTN. Must be a reason for that.
Must say, the new ROM works like a charm. Much faster than the one that was on my Jasjar. :wink:

The new ROM does seem fast, but I still can't get PocketPlus working. Pity. I was really starting to get used to it.

My Pocket Plus works 100%. What version do you have?

When I could not get pocket plus to load on my universal via active sync, I e-mailed the help desk and they sent me a link to the cab files.
I downloaded these and put them on the universal and it worked straight away.

I've got Pocket Plus 3.1, apparently the latest edition. I've also tried installing it directly from the cab, but no luck. Now I'm on to Resco Explorer and Magic Button. I really loved the alt-tab feature of Pocket Plus...
