I got it upgraded as per instruction to 1.72 WWE. Philippine Globe Telecom phone. Runs faster now, not sluggish like the 1.60 rom. Had to scrounge around for a good Ext ROM (don't remember which one I used, maybe Orange).

I notice that devicedata says "CDL" is the company, how can I change that to "O2"?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] GentleMan:
Hi,

as to my kwowledge you can only change the company with ER2003edit prior to installing an upgrade.

Remember to change the company in all 3 files.

Hi,

all the files you try to use in an "upgrade" or "downgrade" must have the same country code and company code as in your *.nbf files on your XDA.

I upgraded it (using waxx's file, I think) but didn't change any country code (which I presume was CDL). I upgraded an O2 machine (Asia pacific) but during the update process, there was no error at all. So, why is it that I can upgrade an O2 machine with a CDL when they have different country codes?

Hey guys, been reading the forums for a while and finally found a need to sign up!

I've modded my own ext.rom which is small and lean without the programs o2 thinks you want to have (PPT reader etc), and upgraded to this Rom version Xda II 1.72.00WWE.

Differences i've noticed (positive and negative):

[+] When sending a text message, if you close Inbox before it is sent and the "message sent" box appears on the Today screen, it will now dissappear if you tap it. There was a bug in the previous rom that meant it stayed there until Soft Reset.

[-] When programs add or remove themselves from the start menu, the start menu does not update until next soft reset.

[-] SMS messages in my inbox have lost their Contact ID ability; the phone number of the sender is displayed but not paired with the name in my Contacts, just like Pocket PC 2002 Phone Edition did.

Can anyone else tell me if they are having these problems as well? Anyone suggest a workaround for the loss of CallID in Inbox?

Thanks

Jim

Lost GPRS Setting

:D

Just throwing my hat into the ring

I too lost all my GPS/GPRS settings and the O2.Cab only replaces the splash screen, BTW it's nicer than the one I had before

I upgraded from 1.60.00WWE and the process was smooth and went without a hitch, the only gripe is my backup won't go back on but you can't have it all can you, gave me a chance to reinstall all my apps and leave out the chaff that I did not need.

I have noticed a speed improvement and better Bluetooth support,network coverage seems to be the same but time will tell

I recommend using Spritesoft Backup Premium instead of Active Sync, backuped up 28MB in juts over 6 minutes, I found it on the forums here so get hunting

You can still get the 1.60.00WWE from the official O2 website, its a free download and you do not have to register

my apologies, for i have taken a rather long vacation.

i noticed that there are a lot of people upgrading their units..

id try to help the ones with problems in the best way that i could

forgive me if i fail, but please be assured that i wont stop until i find a solution to your problems..

as for the settings of GPRS... if you couldnt automatically set it up, i suggest that you manually set it... unless someone out there could make automatic configurations that works..

remember, different countries, have different settings.

kudos for the people who upgraded their units without problems... and for those with problems... post it here.. id try my best.

Custom O2 Rom

Just a quick one for you guys having problems with these roms. I have taken the 1.72WWE that Waxx created here and changed the radio version to 1.17 and also took all the original O2 files from the 1.66 ext rom and added them to the 1.72 ext rom. It includes all the O2 V2R programs and also adds all the correct GPRS settings etc.

If anyone is interested in the files then let me know and I will post them somewhere.

** About sms icon that doesn't dissapear when you switch to today screen, thats because you 'closed' inbox (not minimize) before you give a chance to sms icon appear, as the result sms icon appear forever in today screen, if you use pocket plus and use close button feature, put tmail.exe in the exception list...

** About the start menu that doesn't refresh automatically, that was because you use a theme (*.tsk) that not fully support WM2003, it's impossible for me to differ which theme fully support WM2003, but I can guaranteed that "Windows default" and it's variant theme (orange, green,and yellow) are fully support WM2003

Re: AUTO CONFIG ????

Hi ajong,

The programs have been taken from a UK O2 XDA II and after a hard reset it asks you which country to setup gprs. I Don't remember which countries were there because I simply select the default 'UK' option, I do remember there being Ireland as well but that's all I remember.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] dyntak:
I just have to thank everyone here for saving my new XDA II.

Here's why:

I live in Toronto, Canada and have been a long time Ipaq user for many years. Recently I purchase a used (4 month) old XDA II for a really cheap price with the only thing not working the SD slot (worth it at the price I paid). The unit was originally purchased unlocked from Hong Kong and was working perfectly. I'm not sure which ROM version it had but I went to O2's UK site and downloaded the updated ROM it had advertised on their site. I did not realize that there are different versions for different XDAs, and my unit promptly died on me as there were was nothing on my XDA at all. Nothing worked not hard reset - nothing.

I turned to Google where I discovered this site and thread. I downloaded the ROM posted here and now the XDA is as good as new.

It works fine on my local network (Fido or Microcell) on both voice and GPRS which I manually configuered.

Couple of question: I don't know much about the ROM history of the XDA II. What I have now - 1.17, is that the newest and best version I can possibly have? What exactly is iMate - I don't think we have it on this side of the pond.

Anyone know of a way to fix the SD slot? I don't know what caused it but as I have a WiFi SD card it would be nice to get it to work. As well, if its an Asian unit does that mean it can only be repaired in Asia? How stringent are they on having proof of purchase?

Being new to the XDA II are there any "must have" apps? Anything I need to know?

One OT question for this board. On my old Nokia I was able to type in the phone number and then I had an option to "add to contacts." On the XDA it does not seem to give me that option when I enter the phone number in the phone app.

Last question, can the skin of the phone be changed? The O2 background is a little annoying.

thanks to you all espcially the OP.

Q1: I don't know much about the ROM history of the XDA II. What I have now - 1.17, is that the newest and best version I can possibly have?

- from what i know, 1.72 is the newest rom

Q2: What exactly is iMate - I don't think we have it on this side of the pond.

- Another trade name for the xda2 a.k.a. I-mate2 a.k.a. qtek2020 etc.

Q3: Anyone know of a way to fix the SD slot?

- i think you have to load an SDIO cab file.... i have on in my 1.66.ext. rom.... if you want you can try that..... i'll e-mail it to you if you like

Q4: Being new to the XDA II are there any "must have" apps? Anything I need to know?

- hmm, I use task switch (task manager), MTUX ringtone for my tone manager, pocket mechanic for SDcard (format, scandisk etc) acrobat reader for pdf.. mobipocket for the e-books :)

Q5: On my old Nokia I was able to type in the phone number and then I had an option to "add to contacts."

Apologies for re-opening this old thread but I just want to make sure I understand which components are included in the different ROM's.

I'm currently on:

ROM version: 1.60.00WWE

Radio version: 1.10.00

Protocol version: 1337.18

ExtROM version: 1.60.50

Now, I want to upgrade to the latest version you guys have posted in this thread but being a n00b at this I don't understand the implications from an application perspective.

I don't want to loose the applications that came as standard with the device (o2) but I'm not fussed about the one's I've installed since. Does this upgrade include the same basic apps or is this a cutdown installation or .... ?

Not fussed about the connectivity settings either.

It would be cool if someone could give a brief description of the functions of the differences of the ROM and ExtROM (yes, I already said I was a n00b :P )

I also unlocked the device (thanks to this web site). Does this upgrade mean I'd have to unlock the device again afterwards?
