I picked up an Audiovox branded Blue Angel today for a whole $10. It was sold through Telus, the local CDMA cell provider here in Vancouver Canada. As such it has no SIM socket and no wifi. GetDeviceData tells me it's a PH20A2. Does this mean it's a Harrier? I probably shouldn't be trying to understand all of this when I'm so tired.
It's in pretty good shape, but a touch uninteresting as-is. So of course I want to try updating it.
Before I do, would there be any interest in the Telus provided files in the EXT ROM and such?
I copied the files out of the EXT ROM so I could restore it if I mess things up.
It contained:
AutoRun.exe
Config.txt
HTC_Album_WWE.CAB
HTC_Button9.sa.CAB
HTC_FixCamera_18157.sa.CAB
HTC_PhonePH_v2.4.0.CAB
HTC_Qwerty_Indicator.sa.CAB
HTC_rtp_harrier_qcp.cab
HTC_WLNP_Telus.sa.CAB
HTC_WModem.sa.CAB
Telus.sa_modtsk.CAB
telus_software_store_v12.cab
TPDisable.exe
TPEnable.exe
Version.sa.CAB
It's running Windows Mobile 2003 SE, and the about dialog says it's version 4.21.1088 build 14235.2.0.0
Now, after all that I'm a little confused about what will and won't run on here.
I haven't seen any updates for a Telus/audiovox phone, and I'm not sure how compatible the others are.
It sounds like WM5 and 6 are right out. Is that because this phone's CDMA instead of GSM?
What about versions of 2003SE? EXT ROM stuff?
I hope someone can clear this up for me so I can start having fun with this device.
Now I'm going to sleep.
