Ben zeer benieuwd WIZ!!! (= Im very curious WIZ)

Please give us a short Review of changes you see, especialle if there are some more Bleutooth Profiles in the new one...


Thomas (who cannot w8 to download a new ROM)

Don't count on additional BT profiles, after all, we are talking Microsoft there ;)

However, first impression:

Bluetooth is stable, no BT Hardware Errors anymore


PS My JAM was not in discoverable more, I fired up my BT Headset HBH-600 to pair it, and before I got to putting the HBH-600 in pairing mode, it's discovery-"beeps" were picked up by the JAM, that suddenly asked me whether I wanted to pair with the headset. Does anyone know whether that was already available in 1.03??

well, that sounds promising :)

wiz, thanks for your efforts in providing us with new information. would you be so kind to upload this fw to xda ftp? I dont have imate imei so i cant access their support site :(

regards,

Quappo

Update: Oops, a bit quick on da draw here ... first "BT Hardware no installed" error just popped up, although it seems to occur less frequently ...

uploading, under Magician/Shipped ROM upgrades/ma_cdlsku1_10600_110_10500_ship.exe - hope this helps.

and I hope this is right place to upload this sort of files, I'm a newbie !

regards,
Nicolas.

Wiz,
I installed the "ma_cdlsku1_" ROM today, and I immediately got the BT Hardware no installed crap. Damn, I did not load the ROM Upgrade from last wekk, because I heard so many complaints and I heard there were BT issues.
Honestly I do not think this ROM Upgrade was developed to fix BT issues, but was focused on the audio problems.

How does all this work? Who controls ROM Upgrades? HTC or the Carrier-in this case I-Mate? I know the extended ROM is played with by the Carriers (I-Mate, T-Mobile, Qtek, etc), but who really drives the upgrade and how much ability does the Carrier (I-Mate) have to customize the ROMs or provide fixes?
For instance this ROM Upgrade was taken off so it could be fixed. Was I-Mate working on the fix or were they waiting on HTC to provide a fix?
If I-Mate is driving all this-God help us. I mean come-on they have yet to state any reason other than server download issues for removing last weeks rom and posting this weeks.
