[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] twn2:
Been running this upgrade since Sunday afternoon. Seems a bit faster. I don't have the GPRS problem that a couple other folks have seen. For me to end my GPRS connection I need to hold the Call End button for about 5 seconds or so. Briefly hitting the button doesn't do anything. I have noticed that the same button will end programs now where as I don't think it did with the stock i-mate version.

One issue I have, and I'm not sure if it has to do with the radio version or the weather, but my GSM connection strength doesn't seem to be as good as with .10. Anyone else notice this...or is it just me.

BTW, where is Button 9????

Cease - When you say "don't end the program using the built in MS End Program capability" do you mean Settings>Memory>Running Programs>Stop(All)?

The file is same but it doesn't work out....

Yes, this ROM is faster....

u can feel the difference right from copying and pasting the dr. appointment on the setup screen!!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] twn2:
I felt the same way....but I'm not sure if it didn't have to do with just doing a hard reset and getting all the crap out of my system.

Tom
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] sunish:
With all the things i'm trying for past few days, my imate had not been this fast in response to regular apps after the hard-reset... that's the reason for me to believe something is better in this ROM

Bugs

1. Camera brightness is not returned to original. You have to use old camera.exe.

2. When you turn on flight mode and then turn off. Photo contacts does not show caller photo or its template. Very frustrating bug.

Above msg was posted using PDA2K with WIFI.

Re: Bugs

I don't have this issue. I still have the camera/brightness bug. It occurs on battery power only. Weird.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] TheLastOne:
My red end button works perfectly with wifi too. However, it still closes my GPRS connect as soon as I press it.

Is this not a widely shared problem? If not why is this happening to me and a few others alone?

The Camera brightness problem does indeed still exist on battery power.

I have not yet noticed a problem with turning on then off flight mode, but I will do more testing.

Has anybody done a file compare between this CE rom and one of the other 1.40. Are they the same?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] twn2:
I'm really liking this 1.40 update. Now I have the option to turn wifi off from the top bar (don't know what its called) where the G is located. I can also now connect and disconnect to my tmobile wap and internet from the G. I love that G Spot. BT seems to be quite good too. Speed has improved, but I'm not sure if doing a hard reset was the key.

No problems with the Red key disconnecting me from WiFi or GPRS. I just got back from lunch where I played with it the whole time. My PDA2K I mean. I could only disconnect while holding the button for about 5 seconds. Prior to this upgrade I was able to shut the phone down (go into flight mode) by using the button....no more now. I liked the way I could turn the phone off and on by using my Red Button on my HP 6315...I hated everything else about the unit but that.

Tom
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] twn2:
How did you already cook your own ROM? The update cleared everything out of mine....I thought. Maybe that is part of your "slew" of problems you noted on the i-mate site??? All I have is stock parts now.

Or just add "Default_" infront of the cabs you want to add to the extended ROM so if you want to add a file called i-mate_support_sucks.cab you have to rename it to Default_i-mate_support_sucks.cab

the imate autorun doesn't need a config file. Rename your cabs to include the "Defualt_" prefix, and you should be good to go. That's what I did, and everything that I put there installs just fine.

3- master volume is lower than before

4- camera is not good, brightness issue and the night mode is way bad.

what i noticed is better:

1- in call sound filter is better, the call quality is super

2- battery drains slower atlast

3- bluetooth search is faster

4- the mp3s sound better

my main concern is the camera zoom, i used to have quite a zooming ability but now u can't zoom when taking a pic.

How to bypass the Country Id error?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
Hum, well first you need to log onto your computer.

Then you need to open your internet browser (its the on with the small "e" sign.)

Then you need to type in www.xda-devlopers.com.

This is a forum which has lot of information about your device, how to upgade it and can also how to get around the country code error.

Choice the forum you want, like if you have a Blueangel then choice that one.

Its a user based forum, were you can ask questions and get help. However.....

It is commen that before you do ask a question that you use the search funtion for the chances are High that this question has been asked before, or even scan the topics.

For example in the blueangel section there is a stick thread (its at the top) which sort of tells you what you need to know before you ask.

You see this way you don't waste bandwith or the time of other users that are sick and tiered of answering the same question just for the simple fact that somebody can't be assed to use the search funtion or read the posted threads.

I hear that xda.dvelopers.com is a great place to get information, you should try READING it there is also a great wiki site.

Country ID error solved

I have solved my “Country ID error” problems by patching the uploader (BaUpgradeUt.exe)

If you have the same problem, try following these steps:

1) BE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING

2) Be sure your device is not in programming mode (blank screen with “usb” or “serial” string)

3) Overwrite the original BaUpgradeUt.exe with the program attached to my post (you can verify that isn’t a virus with a binary compare, only two bytes are different)

4) Add the string “[CHECKCEID_TYPE]=1” to the file RUU.CONF (maybe not needed, haven't tried)

5) Cross your fingers

6) Launch the updater (BaUpgradeUt.exe)

NOTE: I don’t know if you can upgrade the device from another language to WWE directly, or if you need to install an older WWE version before upgrading.

MDAIIIUser,

I've decided to do a hard reset and start over. Not sure what program did it, but my pda2k is not working like it did right after the 1.40 upgrade on Sunday.

I'm going to drop a couple cabs from my ExtROM (like Fax and Skype) and add a couple others. In order to get the non-default cabs to install, do I just need add the "Default" in front of the actual file name (like Default_blah.cab) and that's it? I believe this was a previous post, but I got a bit confused.

Thanks,

Tom
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
The 1.40 uses the default_file name and setup.exe. I dont like that as you dont have the same control. Thus I use the config.txt and autorun out of the imate 1.22.162 rom (in the kitchen)

My ext rom is empty, i have all my cabs on sd and hack the reg to start autorun. This way I get all my apps installed and always have clean device. Then I run a bat file to clean up my links to the apps and create those apps that are on SD.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] TheLastOne:
MDAIIIUser, I completely agree. I too, have reverted to the config.txt/autorun.exe format. I guess imate just doesn't like the idea of people hacking up their extended roms? Not like their Setup.exe + Autorun.exe actually stops anyone.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] twn2:
Can you show me the link to do that again? I can't seem to find it. I believe I take the old autorun and a config file (that I've configured) put it in and trash the new autorun, setup, and something else. Right?

Correct me if I'm wrong (and I'm sure you will :-) ) but what do you really gain by doing that? After a hard reset, isn't it the same thing? Everything still needs to be installed. How is it that much cleaner?

Thanks!!!

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] TheLastOne:
Well, some people like to be able to use the extra internal storage for other purposes. Others have an extended rom that does not fit solely within the extended rom memory alotment.

There are reasons, but i prefer to keep my Extended Rom in it's rightful place.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] sunish:
Correct me if i'm wrong or tell me some more which i might not be knowing:

To me all that the extended ROM does is the safekeeping of the major required cabs, it does not ask if a file has to be overwritten when installing something after a hard reset.

As such Ext. ROM does not offer any major help.

The programs installed from the ext. rom does go to main memory and/or storage. so ext rom just takes up the space to store the cabs. it is not like that the programs will be run from the ext. rom itself and make the system more efficient.

I store all my extra cabs on external card (1GB) and install them after a hard reset, since ext ROM can't fit in all the cabs that I need.

Will there be any performance increase if I just clean out the ext ROM and instead use it to install programs??
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] TheLastOne:
I can't logically see why it would make any difference. I believe it is merely a personal choice. My extended rom contains no third-party cabs, I use it as it is meant to be used. I then keep the cabs of all my third party software in my Storage Folder (just barely fits, but eventually when it doesn't I will move it to SD Card).

Where the install files are shoudn't matter, but where you install them may. Are you asking if it would be better to install a program to the Extended Rom storage instead of your SD Card? Because this may, indeed be an interesting thing to test.
