O2 have just released the latest ROM pack which you can download from the XDA section of the site. It is working well for me. It is definately better than the original and and the QTEK ROM I was using whilst I waited for the AKU2 updated ROM from O2.

I understand that O2 are delaying shipping the Mini S phones whilst they upgrade it is possible that you have the latest ROM if purchased in the last few days.

This may be a silly question, but could I simply run lokiwiz on my MDA Vario (hasn't even arrived yet) and then use the latest O2 update or is there an IMEI check to prevent me from doing this?

thanks

Thanx for the info, i had noticed O2 had made a recent rom updated when i researched the product before buying. Mine is in transit & should arrive 2moro with any luck.
It may well have the new rom, this might be a silly question but how will i know if it has the new rom pre-installed??

When you 1st turn on the device, or whenever you soft reset the device, the rom version will be displayed in the bottom right of the boot screen.

You may also be able to find out by going into settings and clicking the about icon.

hi marcel
I'm just correcting my previous post the rom version shows at the top left on the wizard when booting after a softreset mine arrived today and is running 1.6.2.4.

you can also check this in the device information applet in settings.

this isn't the latest rom available but it seems to operate very quickly so i'm gonna stick with it until tmobile release an offical update. (or until i get bored and can't help fiddling with it.)

hope thats some help
