Official ROM updates are or were available for several versions of the Wizard, including the Cingular 8125[17][18] (AKU 2.2.0), the Dopod 838,[19] the i-mate K-Jam[20][21] (AKU 2.0.0), the O2 XDA Mini S[22] (AKU 2.0.0), the Qtek 9100[23] (AKU 2.0.0), the T-Mobile MDA US[24] (AKU 2.3.0), and the T-Mobile MDA Vario.[25] These ROM updates often include a newadaptation kit upgrade which adds features and fixes bugs.
Unofficial and unsupported updates to Windows Mobile 6.5 exist.[26] However, a Wizard must be Carrier Identification (CID) unlocked before flashing to one of these ROMs or flashing to another carrier's ROM (for example, flashing a T-Mobile MDA with a ROM for the Cingular 8125). There are two models of the Wizard: G3 and G4. The procedures for CID andSIM unlocking each model are different.[27][28] Following the wrong procedure or attempting to flash a Wizard that has not been CID unlocked could result in a permanently inoperable phone.

In 2006 the Linwizard Project was started with the aim of replacing Windows Mobile withEmbedded Linux and aGPE/OPIE window manager. TheLinux kernel has been successfullybooted, andKdrive (X Windowing system) runs. The linwizard team is currently in the process of addingdriver support for the various devices present in the Wizard. The latest devices working include the touchscreen and a GSM driver.[30]
