Orange SPV M2000 Latest Imate Rom?

---

Hi everyone,

A quick question -- has anyone with a UK SPV M2000 successfully upgraded to the latest Imate PDA2K rom? If so, could you please post step by step instructions of how you did it?

Also, does the upgrade clear the Orange UK extended rom and replace it with the Imate extended rom?

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Nick

Hello mate,

It seems that we SPV M2000 are underlings in this forum, nobody seems interested in the new users.

I have unlocked the Extended Rom of my M2000 and I have installed the fax software from the Imate, and it works. I do not think that there is anything else that could be interesting there.

Also I upgraded the BT software to build 3500 which seems to have sorted out the licence and memory problems.

If you learn anything could you look out for me and let me know?

I have just got the SPV M2000 and have been having problems with bluetooth and Jabra SP100, I think I need the BT upgrade or patch.

I'm new to the pocketPC world and rom patches etc.

jrmgolem, I would like to get the fax software installed too and the BT patch, but there is so much information on the forum, it's difficult for a newby to figure out where to start :shock:

Would be greateful if you could list the steps that you went through to do your upgrade :P

Thanks in advance.

No problem, if you send me you email I will send you the files. All you have to do is to copy the files into the temp directory in your M2000 and tap them, then do a soft reboot and it should then be updated.

You will need the unlocker as well, then the EXT ROM Files. They are here somewhere so I will find the url and send it.

I'd love to have it too

Hi guys,

Just wondering if either of you could help me out...

I've not got an M2000 yet. Long story...i intend to use my work Voda SIM with an M2000 that a friend who is an Orange dealer has offered me in exchange for a few beers should i want one 8)

A little obvious but just to make sure, I presume that once unlocked, a Voda sim in the M2000 poses no problems :?:

Assuming it works with a Voda SIM, i'm also guessing the M2000 will be heavily customised to Orange. If i flash with an i-mate rom, will that get rid of the Orange customisations and provide a more generic software?


If i need a reflash, until i get the unit i've no idea what versions etc the hardware will be (or even how to find out). Can anybody offer an idiot guide of what to look for and how to flash the unit??

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance 8)

looking for jrmgolem
