Hi,

I would need assistance - which ROM for WM6 to use for HP Ipaq 2200?

I am novice for this. Can anyone help me with this one finding the ROM for this built?

Where should I search for?

Thanks!

If your refering to the OLD iPAQ 2210 series, I don't think WM6 fits in a 32MB ROM, which is what those pda's had. I used to have one of those and that is one of the reasons I upgraded. I wonder how much can you take out of WM6 to be able to reduce it's size by half...

This so far has worked on a my 2755 and another 2495. Not sure about earlier versions.

DO NOT FLASH THIS TO YOUR 2200 series. It IS NOT the correct firmware.

Further checking shows this is not for the 2200 series

It will be nice to have iPAQ H2210 upgraded to WM6.

My H2210 has PPC 2003 ROM only not even 2003SE. It will be nice to have it upgraded to 2003SE if WM6 is not available. Can someone help?

NO! iPAQ H2200 series cannot be upgraded because it is too much of efforts and too little reward to build a WM5/6 ROM for this most easily broken (mostly grips and battery doors) amongst the iPAQs.

In my humble opinion: NO. The Windows Mobile 6 Operating System does not fit into a 32MB ROM. I remember back when 2003SE came out, we couldn't even upgrade to that because of the ROM size constraint. That said, I do still like the PDA a lot, specially the large bright screen and ergonomics.

yes, 2200 series have got a little ROM, but support CF cards! I have heard, that system can boot from a card, so if somebody can change it to boot from card, it will be great, and users of 2200 series can be happy with new WM! :)
