Beta ROM update 2.6.5.1 for Orange SPV e200 in Switzerland
February 19, 2004 [MS Smartphone] | By anonymous 1.
The new ROM, apart from significantly longer battery life, brings many more improvements:
- version numbers (old values in brackets): operator 2.6.5.1 (1.1.1.4), manufacturer 1.11.5.0 (1.6.0.0), Microsoft 4.20.13288.0 (4.20.13288.0 - no change), language 1.11.5.0 (1.6.0.0 ).
- without phone calls battery life is now 3-4 days (compared to max 1 day previously)
- improved Bluetooth driver - what brings much longer battery time when Bluetooth is "on"
- improved Bluetooth driver - now it is possible to connever over Bluetooth with Pocket PC 2003 devices (to use Microsoft Smartphone as a modem over Bluetooth for Pocket PC 2003 device)
- improved Bluetooth driver - activation of serial ports for Bluetooth (inbound and outbound ports) works fine - important for using of various Bluetooth devices like GPS receivers with the smartphone (in fact some operators have car navigation software for Microsoft smartphone ready, software that uses GPS receivers over Bluetooth)
- new radio version 1.12.01 (compared to 1.09.00 previously) - the tester has subjective impression that the quality of voice calls improved
- Bluetooth programs in menu now got typical Bluetooth icon
- when one presses "*" longer then one can select language in which to write emails, SMSes and other texts in 7 languages - very useful in Europe - so one can write one SMS in German and the next one in French (using T9)
For more information (in German but several screen shots show the differences in pictures) click here.
It is yet unknown when above mentioned ROM upgrade will be available for end users.
