not really sure what you mean by that
if you mean if it's based on the whole new windows CE v5 then no it's
SE as in second edition
so it's just the second edition of wm2003 which is based on windows CE 4 or 3 i forget

To the Moderator...
It was suggested, after the last such post like this, for about the ten thousandth time, that it might be worthwhile making it STICKY, that win2003se is NOT OUT YET etc.
If this wasn't done, can I re-suggest it now Peter?

Before all going crazy... about WM2003SE for the QTK2020
Yes it exist,
No it is not avalaible...
And the worse still to come :
it require a valid licence and ACTIVATION...
Bad time is coming....

big brother is on the move ?

What do you people have against Nyditot Virtual Display?! I've been using it for years in my MDA - 640x480 landscape - just a little work with fonts and cleartype + undock keyboard and you basically have comfort of PC screen! You don't need any SE!

The main problem I have with it, is that has caused my i-mate to freeze more than once.
I'll wait for SE . . .

NEVER had a single problem with NVD! :?:

mda3 runs se, we might be lucky as hardware seems to be almost identical, apart from keyboard and wlan

nvd works fine on an xda1 but on an xda2 it totally mongs it up, works a lil then goes fubar...

WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 Stability ?

Hi ALL
I been reading through all the post for the past week or so.. and contemplating upgrading to WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG on my 02 XDA .
I check out ROMkitchen and created my ROM but I deselected all additional software I Just wanted the bare bone WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG. I have not installed it yet. (BIG THANKS TO XDA-developers )
some users posted that they had good and bad experience with WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 . The reason why i created this topic is to collate disadvantage and advantage using WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG (due to not final version if I'm correct).
I check here and the Enhancements are damn good which should of been support by PPC 2002 Phone Edition .
a) Can user posted disadvantage and advantage using WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG i.e. annoying bugs http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1945
b) What's your personnel percentage based on WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 ENG? i.e. User ability
c) Will you port back to PPC 2002 ? i.e. WM 2003 ROM 4.00.05 Stability dose not meet my needs
Share your thoughts and experience please if possible
Well to be honest with you so far the device and the WM2003 are very stable together.
I am using QTEK 32MB with ROM 4.00.05 and i can assure you that the speed is even better and the performance is great.
Now that doesnt mean its bug free there are still some small problems here and there as any normal ROM.
My advice upgrade it... and then you will see that you will like it allot you wont downgrade.
By the way "Test Not for Sale" screen when reseting the device is great lol 8)
Frankly, my experience with my 02 hasn't been all that stellar. i do get some slowdowns, but i don't think i can go back to SER1.2's smsing... smsing in the new os is spectacular, well worth the other drawbacks.
my 2 cents
I've got 4.00.05 installed. After a soft reset, a white square box with a grey rectangle over it comes up on the screen- looks like some sort of dialog is trying to come up but isn't all there. There's also a (x) in the top corner. Clicking that brings back the today screen.
Has anyone else noticed this? It happened also when I was using the 4.00.01 ROM.

This is the SIM Toolkit. If you can still boot, simply remove the stk.lnk file from \Windows\Startup. Otherwise create a new ROM in the kitchen: I added the option to not include that link earlier today.
Sweet. Just took out the stk link.
So far this ROM seems pretty stable. I'm still having some issues with the SD card though.
It seems if I remove the card and add files with my card reader, then put it back in the phone, it's not seeing the changes.
4.00.05 vs 4.00.01
I have a fairly vanilla ROMKitchen 4.00.05.
The SIM toolkit is annoying (empty dialog) that pops up after a soft reset.
4.00.01 was very stable for me. If anything 4.00.05 appears a little less stable on GRPS. It keeps/makes the connection OK, but the network (TCP/IP side) seems to get confused until I power off the radio or reset sometimes.
I'm not going to bother going back to .01, but I won't bother updating any more devices to .05 if they already have .01.

Are you on T-mobile ? The whole GPRS network seems very unreliable since Saturday afternoon - I had problems in CO, then CA on Tuesday (though late morning was fine) and again today in CO. My machine ROM is unchanged in the last 10 days.

Confirmed: we see that too. Annoying. But fortunately the 'Answer' on the screen always works, otherwise 4.00.05 would be unusable.

EasyTweak does all sorts of PPC2002-related registry tweaks. You can't really expect it to be very useful on new OS versions. I've set it to 'PPC2002 only' in the kitchen.
Hi,
I tried the 4.00.01 and got many bugs ... (bad reception ...)
Yesterday I put the 4.00.05 and all seems going well. Good GSM reception and for the moment no problem.
Thx to Jeff and his kitchen

Is it true.Upgrading qtek to 2003 will crush the board

Hi
I have one question may be its foolish to ask
Is it true that upgrading Qtek 1010 to WM 2003 will crush the main board cause am thinking in upgrading my ppc to WM 2003
what do u Suggest
Thanx
You think??!!
so far its been 6 month now and i upgraded my Qtek 1010 for 3 times and its running smoothly...
so again you think?
go ahead do it but please make sure you know what your doing...
:wink:
Thanx for answering me and encourgin me
actually i posted my Qtek Device Info on another post and somebody kindly told me that i have already wm2003
my device info
ROM Version:4.00.16 Eng
ROM Date : 07/10/03
Redio Version : 4.21.00
Protocol Version: 32S54
so Mr.ARZLEB do u suggest anything for making this qtek arabic enabled thanx alot
Qtek and crushed motherboards
The only way you'll crush your Qtek upgrading from Pocket PC 2002 to Windows Mobile aka Pocket PC 2003 is if you physically sit onto of the device while the upgrade is being processed. If you believe this, boy do I have some very cheap igloos in Alaska for you to buy!

Yes from the info you have posted you do have WM 2003. As for Arabic support you will find all the anwsers here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=1861
http://www.pocketpc4arab.com
Enjoy
Thanx ARZLEB
Sorry for asking much
but the www.pocketpc4arab.com is not working with me is it with u
then the post u put contains beta arabization do u suggest me to use it and when i back up my rom on a MMc card can i use this card for another programs or i should leave it as a back up only
thanx
Falconsql
www.pocketpc4arab.com Seems down try this one:
http://www.ppcme.com
Actually i don't suggest to use Arabic in general this is my opinion as what to do its your decision.
As for the MMC i suggest when you back up your ROM it not to use it for any other thing even if you try the MMC would require format to be able to write on it anything else so that mean you will loose all the Backup data.
If you need anything else just keep asking till you get all the anwsers...
regards
Thanx Alot ARZLEB

I give up on 2003SE....

I was very very happy when I saw 2003SE last week and I tried every version of it, incl. chinese one, but now I give up becouse it's not stable "NOT STABLE AT ALL" right now my PPC is so death as a peace of rock and when it starts after 100 times of softreset then it's freezes after 10 seconds...
So I'm going to flash it with off. v1.7 + ROM 1.18 and I'll wait one more month and see whats happening then....
Thanks you guys for your hard work
There seems to be alot of different experiences depending on the version of bootloader you have. I have version 1.06 and SE works like a charm, except for ONE anoying bug.
It simply wont ring when someone calls me.
Other than that, im very satisfied.

It happent to me also, because I edit the register
so no sound, Think I take out the default ring tone
uninstall wisbar or pocketplus, soft-reset and check it out.

Well my fren, that's called life. We should be able to feel the joy and accept the sad part when something turns hairwire. No high and low will definitely make you an extremely dull person.
Cheer up! Specify your problems clearly and i think all the SE supporters will definitely help you in anyway they possibly could.
Look at the bright side, a not stable PPC makes me occupied and keep on thinking to overcome the challenges ahead. Opps...sorry guys i think i'm abit overly here like doing a motivation course.....
Nevertheless, i just wanted to save a lost soul of SE to revive back his excitement before an official launch of WM2003SE.....

Ah!! now i see, its because i chosed to start wisbar advance automaticly.
When i removed that option, it WORKED!! THANX!!!!
Wisbar advance freezes the phone application on 2k3SE shame because it is a good program.
My extended ROM consists of GSFinder (freeware), MIDI561.sa, todayweather (freeware old version), Extended ROM unlocker by xda-developers, Cproghook, BT executable upgrade and CameraB10_Hima25_WWE.
Oh yeah and a licensed verion of TomTom3.
I threw everything else out as I dont use it.
My XDA2 now benchmarks at 1452 according sbp benchmark which according to their comparisons on the website is 2nd or 3rd fastest. 1 full charge see's 24-30 hrs use without a recharge on standby including the folowing settings: bluetooth of, average of 4-5 hrs spend email, telephone, sat nav and games with back light to minimum and switch of backlight after 2 min and unit of after 3 min .
My conclucion is that 2k3SE is stable however a lot of the software used by us is not wholely compatible yet as it is a new platform and until the vendors realise their software bugs it will make 2k3SE appear to be unstable!
just my £0.02
I can assure you that the 2.20.07.CHS, aka the chinese version i s stable just like 1.72 was in its time
yes maybe there are some problem relating to the software (wisbar, I had the same problem as you guys), but it is not the wm2003se fault, but the fault of the software houses realesing apps with no SE support.
So try to look at the good times we are having doing all that upgrade, downgrade stuff....
The T9 Intellipad, does NOT save words if you chose another language.
This is seriously not good on my device, since im from sweden.
Has anyone got any sollution to this problem?!...
you will need to get the latest new version for WIn2003 SE
cause most of the software/program design for win2003 only not SE yet
wait for new version for SE
then you dun have the problems
I m running my A.K.A chinese SE no error/problems with all my software/program
Now I figured out how to get rid of the wisbar adv problem.
I found it on the lakeridge soft forum.
There is a guy that uninstalled the caller_id app, and it solves the problem.
I personaly don't use the caller_id thing (picture of the caller) and I don't have any problems in removing it.
Maybe it helped

can you go back From WM2005 to windows 2003 ?

hi all newcomer here so be patient, have upgraded to wm 2005 but dont like can i go back to a windows 2003 rom that is not ORANGE bias :?:
Yes you can, but not not without any risk. When I went back to 2003SE, I had some problems with it. My PDA didn't work for almost a day before I find the solution. I am not sure that this is working for you, but it worked for me. I have done it with a new installed computer with only activesync 3.7 version on it.
Good luck

I upgraded from WinMobile 2003 to Windows Mobile 5 and found it nice but slow. I reversed the steps and went back to SIN's version of Windows 2003 SE available here on XDA-Developers. Frankly it is better than Mobile 5. Yes, there are the same landscape screen benefits, but man is it fast ... especially when you set Xscalar to FAST.
So instead of an expensive paperweight, I still have a beaut XDA with lots more speed and functionality. The SBP add-on for Windows Theme Generator works a treat ... so all around I am happy.

spv m1000 upgrade options??

hiya,
bit new to all this, so some advice from you guys is needed!
what are the best options for the m1000?
not sure if there are different versions of the phone so give you as much detail as i can find?
cpu intel pxa263
speed 400mhz
ram 128mb
model ph10a
the main app i need is excel, plus a prog to print via ir to my dj450 printer(have been using printpocketce)
hope i have not missed anything important??
thanks in advance
there are 2003SE roms wm5 roms wm6 early roms
personaly if your device works as it should now i prob would leave it alone as i cant say if printing would work with later roms
thanks for the reply!
cant say its been working well?...had a few random hangs from time to time and there has been times where you get a call no ringtone heard and no way to answer it? h/ware buttons didnt work,touch screen button flashes like its been pressed but still didnt answer
only way i found to sort it out was a soft reset
so the main reason for the upgrade was an improvement in phone function rather than a printing issue?
think the main question i meant to ask really was which is the most stable version for this type of phone,most of the bugs sorted out?
thanks again

Had a lot of hanging, on my M1000, but after upgrading to the WM2003SE WWE, the speed of the machine has improved a lot, and it does no longer hang, allmost no matter what I do.
I found that some of the build in Orange apps were the reason for "hangtime" and slowdowns, because if I tryed to install them, from the original Ext-ROM, all the problems came back.
So my experience is, that "Genuine English WM2003 SE " http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=230279 is a major improvement, to the Orange standard WM2003
I upgraded my SPV M1000 from Orange ROM to WM5 and now to Tofclock WM6 ROM, and it works fine. All features are ok for me, it's great!!!
thanks for the reply guys
would like to try tofclock wm6, if im going to do it may as well go the whole hog!
does anyone know if you can print via ir in office on wm6?...or am i going to need some more software??
