Bringing Back to Life your old Pocket PC

I have an O2 XDA IIs that has been in storage for a few years now. This pocket pc model was launched by now the defunct O2 Asia last 2004. During those times, it costs a whopping Php50,000.00 per unit and primarily used by medical representatives for its powerful but very unstable Microsoft Windows Mobile 3 OS.  It has a built in retractable QWERTY keypad, WIFI, Bluetooth and a handful size of a unit.  

       

Came across recently of upgrading its operating system to a Windows Mobile 6.5, its like upgrading a PC OS from Windows ME to Vista.  After carefully studying its step by step instructions, I finally upgraded my unit and finally was able to use the new and improved interface of the Xda IIs.  The user interface is a lot different from the old one but I was able to install a lot of new pocket pc programs which the old OS cannot read due to its obsolete programming.  Aside from installing new programs, I was able to expand my memory by transfering theExtended Rom to the main memory.  

If you have that old pocket pc just gathering dust in your closet, try to revive it and upgrade its ROM to the latest release. But may i remind you, upgrading is not just for anyone, carefully research forums and download an authentic and recently release file where bugs and fixes have already been updated.  I suggest you go to http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php? pagename=HTC_Blueangel read carefully the instructions. Once you've started the process, there is no turning back and there is that danger of damaging your phone. But once you're successful with the upgrade, it's going to be a lot of fun using your old unit coming back to life!

Just had to find a way to replace my old worn out casing...
