Default Upgrading MDA Vario II with HTC Rom - open questions

Hi comm!

I have a T-Mobile MDA Vario II, Rom Version: 1.21.

Can i upgrade my PPC with the released WM6 update of HTC without any problems, although i have a differently branded TyTN? Will all functions work (telephone, internet)? And can i downgrade my WM6 to WM5 easily or can I reactive my current system status with a backup (SK Tools)? Last but not least, what will the warranty say?

Thanks for your efforts.

PS: sorry for all these maybe stupid questions...but i´m just a beginner =)

upgrading to WM 6 worked for me as did unlocking ;)


If you do not use an official T-mobile ROM update forget any warranty, unless you're able to downgrade to the original one

I have an original Rom from T-Mobile. Do you know what happens with the warranty of T-Mobile when you unlock the CID? Does the CID still will be unlocked if you install another Rom? Can you lock it again?

It won´t be possible unless you downgrade to your old ROM again. I am not sure if that´s possible, though.

I went along the way described at http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?...1&limitstart=4

If you follow the directions including the upgrade to wm6 from Custel, you can afterwards install the German WM6 version from HTC. It won´t work directly. The CID will stay locked and the HTC cannot be installed until you installed the CUSTEL version.

I think the T-Mobile contract does not allow to modify the system in this way.
