Hi all.
I Just bought an Orange spv m700. Original owner has debranded it and installed WM 6.1 Device name: HTC_P3600i Model NO: TRIN100 Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional ROM version 3.03.751.5 ROM Date: 04/01/08 Radio Version: 1.16.00.00 Protocol Version: 32.53.7018.01H I can't find any reviews online from user using WM 6.1 To tell you the truth I see little difference from WM5! (and I prefer the blue spec of WM5 to the green WM6.1) Can anyone help dish the good and the bad?  -------------------- HTC_P3600 (debranded SPV M700)
WM 6.1 Pofessional (originally WM5) Model No.: TRIN100 ROM Version 3.03.751.5 ROM Date: 04/01/08 Radio Version: 1.50.08.11 Protocol Version: 32.63.7020.20H |

In my experience, moving forwards is always a good idea. If you don't like the blue, you can always change the theme.
You will find that a lot of apps will work faster and more efficiently on a newer os. -------------------- --

I've read that upgrading ROM's can knock out the GPS receiver? which is my main concern at the moment: The advice online is to select "NMEA GPC receiver" and COM9 (from the screen shown below) COM3: GPS in COM9 COM7: RIL on COM6: S2410 IRDA However, I still get no GPS signal, indoors or out. Don't know what to do! Any ideas?

I've sorted it, incase anyone with the same problem reads this post:
The problem was the old radio ROM flashed when unlocking the phone. I managed to get in touch with the original owner and he sent me a link to an an .exe file which I downloaded, ran whilst activesynced to my phone, and voila! I now have radio ROM 1.50.08.11. Tomtom 6.03 now successfully works using settings "other NMEA GPS receiver" with "GPS baud rate 115200" and "GPS in Com9"! Hope this helps others, Matt
