Guest ericharlz Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 (edited) im sorry if this has been discussed before but I tried to SEARCH but I guess I'm not good at searching. So here it goes... I got an iMate Jam from the US (Band 850/1800/1900). 1.) Is it possible to install non USA ROM like O2 Asia, Qtek or iMate WWE? Because when I tried to install the WWE version it says incompatible device (not the country error). Should I just follow the procedure from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?p...icianRomUpgrade and everything will be fine? 2.) If ever that procedure will solve the problem.. will the band be changed to 900/1800/1900? (or is this a hardware thingy?). 2.a If it will not change the band, how bad will the signal be on a country that uses 900/1800? 2.b If it will change the band, will the reception be better? Thanks Edited April 27, 2006 by ericharlz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awarner (MVP) Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 I have not looked into details regarding flashing the Jam, but normally the band setting is a hardware feature and not software. Saying that though it may be possible to flash the phone with another ROM and the 900 band may be enabled but I can not find any information to back this up.

I just came across a thread in another forum wherein one of the poster confirmed that he has tested it over and over with hi smt5600, but other than that I haven't read anything about the band being changed through a ROM update.
