Guest John.medhurst Posted March 12, 2004 Report Posted March 12, 2004 I was just thinking, and forgive my probable ignorance,... But couldn't you in theory copy the 2003 ROM off an Orange E200 or whatever, and put it on the MPX200? Even if this meant that the silly external LCD and a couple of buttons were rendered useless, I'd still be well happy with the 2003 OS... Is it possible? It's above my head, but I'd love to know if it could be done... John
Guest squall Posted March 13, 2004 Report Posted March 13, 2004 erm there would be alot of problems, main ones being- device drivers - the spv uses different drivers etc update safeguards - the updates check current rom versions - this isn't always passable Legality - if O uk brought out an update its likely to be copyrighted to them so all in all i doubt it;)
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted March 13, 2004 Report Posted March 13, 2004 Yep the Hardware between models are too different for this to work. Also more inportantly the bootloaders are different so the OS would not even load.
Guest John.medhurst Posted March 13, 2004 Report Posted March 13, 2004 Man,... Didn't realise the half of it. Thanks for the answers folks
