Hey all i just ordered a Atom off ebay...just wondering if there are something i might want to know about it when i receive it? It is supposed to already have been updated to win 6.1 and have a few other extras added. Im thinking it might have touchflo already too. My only thing is that i didnt realize until after i bought it that it didnt have a keyboard. Whats the best keyboard program i can download? Im a big texter.
well i guess no one is going to reply to this and thats funny because 50 people have viewed it. I just wanted to know some basic information about the phone because i really dont see anything online about it at all.
pockeycm keyboard may help
thanks...i used to have a mogul with wm6. will i be able to just download and install it onto the atom like i did with that?
I'm a big texter too. Try Gullums Diamond Keyboards. When you first use the XT9 keypad it will type only numbers. The solution to this is to press options and then return to the keypad and everything works great. You only need to do this once (or after a soft reset)

Oh and by the way, if you want a good clean WM6.1 ROM with touchflo where EVERYTHING works and NO bugs, try the one in my sig. I've tried them all and it's the most reliable by far. Ok, you have to install any further apps you want yourself but I prefer this.
Enjoy your phone

Hi,
I have had it ! I decided to change my PocketPC OS to some company other than Microsoft !
Each time I install a new Program(most of the good ones) in the WM2003se ... either hang or Hard Reset !
Don't wast your time with it ..
Also , Don't wast your time developing or looking after better extended ROM !
Simply install you OS , then install all your favorite Programs in your favorite location (SD may be) then set all of the copy protection serials numbers and then perform a backup in your SD (using Sprite or any other that provide Self extracting) !
Whenever you have a problem .. simply hardreset .. then restore !
Sorry for being so straight !

Any
That may be a good solution for your situation but that doesn't mean that it will for for every body!
I like my self cooked Extended ROM and haven't experienced any hang or hardreset until know.
Also everyone must be aware of the fact that not every application will run on the w2k3 se. Just like it doesn't on your PC.
So there is not one solution and the solution is specific to the needs someone has.
Regards,
Mark
Waleed,
Sorry you feel that way but for me its the real fun part of owning a XDA II. Coz being an engineer also helps .. we love to fix things, even if it aint broke ... until it breaks.
Cheers

My sentiments too... It's a TOY for me to bash!!!!!!
I've only experienced 1 hang:- with XCPUScalar ver 2.82. I upgraded to ver 2.85 and my device is running smoother than the old 1.66.00WWE ROM.
Mind you, I don't run that many apps either. Just calculators / Adobe / XSForms etc...
I installed and am enjoying using Fonix Voice Dial, which I never would have since ROM 1.72 isn't released for Asia as yet!
Either way, I am having a ball playing with this powerful work tool... cough... toy!
Recrem...
Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition, WOW....!!, It's a Fenomenal ROM, I very like it !!!, but if you don't, just to downgraded to 1.72 + SRS Appl.
Cheers,
Right guys,
I've been watching the work that Buzz and co. have been doing with awe. I think he/they are doing a grand job.
The only thing stopping me from installing 2005 is the lack of IntelliDialer.
This is the main thing that I upgraded from 2003 to 2003SE for - landscape mode I can sorta live without most of the time - but not IntelliDialer.
Is there any way to get IntelliDialer working on 2005?
If so, please point me in the right direction and I'm gonna have that puppy running on my phone quicker than u can say Jazzy Jack Rabbit.
Cheers,
ND
Ok, so if there's no IntelliDialer replacement, could ppl let me know what they find to be the quickest and easiest way for dialing contacts on WM2005.
I use IntelliDialer exclusively so don't really wanna give up on it.
but still the wm5 "contacts" just like a 75% intellidialer...hmmm :roll:
Ok, I know there are a LOT of posts already. I have read through a lot of them but I'm struggling a little so I'd appreciate any help anyone is willing to give.
I have upgraded my SPV M1000 to WM5 1.60c WWE. I used Buzz's install, in case you were wondering.
At first I had an issue with Activesync but then I found that I needed Activesync 4 for it to work. I have now installed that and it has sync'd fine.
I'm having trouble with the camera and record buttons but from what I've seen on here most people are and (for me anyway) it's not the end of the world.
My questions are:
1. I previously had 2003se on my device. When I installed it (or whenever it hard reset) an auto-install kicked in and installed some very handy apps (including MMS which is missing) and basically everything was configured for me. I've noticed that this isn't on this particular update. PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong but is that called the extrom? If so, can I get one for WM5? (A link would be nice! :wink: )
2. As I mentioned above, the camera button doesn't work but the camera does. However I'm really not impressed by the camera app. Why does this version only use a window on the screen when the old one used the whole screen?!? I know it makes no difference to the quality of picture taken but I'd much rather have the full screen view finder. is there an alternative for this?
If anyone can advise on this I'd really appreciate it.
Now I'm off home to re-install my fave apps!
Right, I'm on the verge of downgrading back to 2003SE and restoring back to where I was.
Why?
Well, I must say I do like the interface. It's nice. The new screens in the phone app are nice, it all works nice.
Now the problems.
First, my 'must have' app doesn't work. SPB Pocket Plus. I can't remember the exact error message but it was something about the version. I'm using SPB Pocket plus 2 by the way.
Second, I tried installing Tomtom 5. Didn't work. It failed on the PC, after clicking next on the verification screen. I've read through some posts and found possible ways around but it looks like it could take a little while and, to be honest, if I'm going to have trouble with other apps too I'd rather just downgrade without spending hours trying pointlessly to get it working.
Obviously the side buttons don't work but like I said before, that's not too important to me.
Now that I've written this all down it just looks like little niggles and why am I moaning but I still feel inclined to downgrade all the same.
If anyone can help me out then I'd really appreciate it.
Don't worry about this. I've decided to downgrade until I can guatantee that everything will work properly.
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??
Hi all,
Yes I'm new, and i was wondering if I could have a bit of help please?
I have a Neon200, and the Nike stuff obviously doesn't work for it. Saying that however, I have gone through the Neon Hard-SPL, from here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377260
and then i upgraded to a russian 6.1 (which is also on the board somewhere), and now plan to move to 6.5. I found one here, but apparently will have issues with the keyboard and the camera button.
My question is, is anyone else working on a ROM for wm6.5 that will work on my neon200? Or is there anyway to get a niki rom to work on it?
Thanks, and sorry if I've just asked a bunch of noob questions.
I got the 6.5 rom to work on my phone (albeit with limited physical key support)
But now I'm having the issue of my sim not working in there (no service, denied, searching..)
Think this is because the radio I have for it now doesn't work.
Can anyone help me with that?
My phone is the Neon200 (duh..), from Telstra NextG in Australia.
Cheers guys
Yeah.. I've been poking around a bit as well.. I think the official HTC image is only 6.1.. so if anyone can port the Niki 6.5 over it would be great!
Hmm...
It may be an issue with thephone. I still have it, and also have a 16 key NIKI100 now, as well as the touch diamond.
Think i'll just sell the other ones and stick with the diamond.
