Yes definately!!! This rom is just driving me crazy! Its given me MORE problems, hasn't resolved a single issue over the imate ROM.

Bluetooth stack seems poor, very buggy havent had any of these problems with the imate rom.

o2 have done it again!!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] :
Hmm, i'm gonna keep on monitoring this thread before I commit myself to any upgrades. Mikees post seemed promising until I read S1nnon's
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pug:
Must admit that I have modified the ROM so it uses the i-mate 1.03 radio. No problems with it at all. Used Tomtom 5 for 3 hours today with no problems at all, traffic over gprs seemed to work no problems. The battery life doesn't seem to be affected at all on my 2i, must be the different radio stack, maybe 1.03 is more efficient. I'll try upload it to the FTP site if anyone is interested in my modified version.

XDA 2i Update with 1.03 Radio

Thanks to pug for doing that.

I just need to give it a go now.

Quick question to anybody, if I upgrade the ROM and don't get on with this update how would I revert back to a previous version. Please excuse my ignorance but I am a new XDA user and only had my XDA for a month although I've been working in IT for 18yrs!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pug:
To revert back to a previous ROM, just run the installer package that you may have. O2 gave you a CD with the firmware on when you bought the 2i which I think has the original firmware on it. There are also many ROMs on this site you can use. I'm not sure if a backup and restore through Activesync will work but no doubt there will be other people with more know how to answer this one.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] markyhedgehog73:
in response to pug i have the same setup as yourself and can say that i have had no probs at all with it. tt traffic worked just fine for over a day.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] markyhedgehog73:
forgot to add made a backup of original setup using SKTools software(available from Handango) and a backup of update and can restore to either setup as and when (nb: backups were saved to sd card)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pug:
Well I've had this for a few days now and haven't had to reset the unit once. Normally get 4 hours continuous use out of it now instead of the normal 3 or so. What's everyone elses opinion of this?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Zincubus:
I still think that it is a bit too risky for a novice ( me) to upgrade.

I am sticking with what I have - -it works perfecrtly ! :)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] zohaer21:

PUG,

I seem to get a Radio Error when trying to update the Radio in your Modified ROM. Can you help?

Cheers

Lee
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pug:
To be honest not sure what the problem could be as I'm very new to all this pocket PC stuff. The only things I can think of are as follows:

1: The files got corrupted during download.

2: The installer program fails the first time you run it and all you need to do is run it a second time without touching your 2i at all.

3: Just let all the components update.

4: It's not a 2i you are trying to update. (extremely unlikely though)

Don't take offence at that last one though, it does happen. I tried to put WM5 on my 2i for 5 days before I realised it was ONLY for the 2.......DOH!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] bluebotle:
I really don't know how yo uhave done it. I ran the MAUpdate.exe file an dit checked my device for the version numbers etc. then it failed in the bootloader mode. I then re ran the exe file again not touching the the XDA2i and it started to update the ROM. When it got to the Radio Update part it said Error - Radio Version incorrect please reset your devic and try again.

It is an XDA2i, its worth asking though!

Cheers

Lee
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pug:
Got it, it's the file titled MAUpgradeUT_noid.exe that you need to run. The other one I should have removed because it looks for specific versions I think.

Just to add ... i too am now using Pug's version of the update and my xda 2i hasnt needed a reset in days, havnt had chance to test tomtom out properly yet but on the whole it looks very good.

Also the XDA2i looks and feels alot faster than before and free from lockups, im not holding my breath though :P

There was an update for TT3 on their website that was intended to sort out the lockup of TT3 during and after calls. I am uploading the modified and first original O2 ROMs to the following folder for those interested in both of these.

Rom version of Dopod 699

My ROM version of Dopod 699 (antoher name of HTC Alpine) in Taiwan.

Just for your information. :)

ROM date: 01/27/05

Radio: 1.02.00

Protocol: 1337.41

ExtROM: 1.11.110 CHT

It looks Dopod Taiwan already carried the newest ROM when I've bought my Dopod 699 this March. :D (And Dopod has no any ROM update for now)

We have newer Radio (1.03.00) now. I am considering to upgrade Radio, however don't know how much improvment between 1.02 and 1.03, since it looks like no Alpine WWE users have Radio 1.02...

Effect on phone signal strength

Has anyone noticed if the Radio: 1.03.00 improves the actual signal quality?. I currently use...

O2 XDA 2i

ROM VERSION: 1.10.00 WWE

RADIO VERSION: 1.00.00

PROTOCOL VERSION: 1337.39

EXTROM VERSION: 1.10.124

Using the above I don’t know if anyone else has experience unstable signal ie.. from Max strength down to 0 then back up ?!?.

This issue is what’s tempting me on the upgrade, though I’m disappointed that O2 didn’t update the radio...

Finally well done PUG for including the updated rom in the package. :-)

Got it sorted.

Used WinRAR to extract the files from the o2 XDA_IIi_Upgrade_v1.11.162 file to a folder on my PC , then put a copy of MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from pug,s XDA_IIi_Upgrade_v1.11.162 Radio_1.3.rar into my new folder. Ran MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe first time, and it changed all but the Radio (came up with an error for Radio). Ran it a second time, all back to the new o2 Upgrade v1.11.162

ActiveSync still wouldn't restore my contacts, but I had previously backed them up to a SD, so using xBackup was able to restore contacts. (from file called CompactFlashBackUpPim) :D

Hope this might help someone

Ps

Still haven't sorted the Country ID error No-No-22-22-22 using the original o2 files though :evil:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Zincubus:
That sounded absolutely frighteneing to a mere novice like myself.

I really need an idiot's guide or I may be better leaving well alone .

My set up as is as follows :

ROM VERSION: 1.10.00 WWE

ROM date 12/24/04

RADIO VERSION: 1.00.00

PROTOCOL VERSION: 1337.39

EXTROM VERSION: BLANK

Any suggestions - but keep 'em simple : )
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pug:
Activesync uses the device name to arrange the files that are synchronised. If the device name is wrong then the files won't be restored to the device at all. Before all updates are done it is common practice to perform backups of essential data.

Zincubus, this is how you do it:

1: Go to START>PROGRAMS>XBACKUP and backup contacts and appointments to the storage card.

2: Copy all files you want to keep to your storage card. Then remove the card.

3: Download and unrar the update file.

4: Run MAUpgradeUT_noid.exe - It will report an error and stop.

5: Run the program again without touching the Alpine at all.

6: Use Xbackup to restore your contacts etc and copy all files back to your device from your storage card.

7: Set your phone up back as you like it. All programs will need reinstalling etc.

If you are wanting to install an original O2 update then all you have to do is connect your device and run the original update program, no unzipping or anything.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] bluebotle:
Hi,

What do you do if it errors on updating the Radio. Mine says Error Radio version incorrect.

I have followed all the above.

Cheers

Lee

XDA2i
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pug:
Which file are you executing?

MAUpgradeUT_noid.exe or MAUpgradeUT.exe?

It's the one with _noid on it you need to run. That's the only thing I can think of there.

If all else fails try downloading from the second location I mentioned earlier in this thread.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Zincubus:
Why would I have a blank next to EXTROM version ??
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pug:
The only reason there would be a blank is that an incomplete ROM was installed at some point.

Looking at it you would probably benefit from installing one of the updates, wether it's one of the genuine O2 ROMs, the I-mate ROM or the one I posted. If you follow the instructions a few posts ago it is really simple and there's no need for errors to occur on your behalf.

If the device works you may not want to do this at all. Your call.

New XDA lli ROM

Hi all,

Upgraded my lli as soon as the ROM was available.. So far I've had it lock up twice on the same day, went to power it on and the screen was already active but on BL, had to soft reset on both occasions.. Also had no bluetooth audio when making a call (just buzz & crackle) strange as I had normal PPC audio through the BT head set, just no audio during a call..Had to hard reset to clear that issue..Also went to turn it on yesterday and it went straight into camera mode and started taking pictures one after another!! had to soft reset to stop it!!! Oh and it has managed to turn the BL setting to zero by its self on two other occasions!!!

Hope someone from O2 reads these forums.. I've never owned such a poorly sorted piece of hardware in my life.. Barely a day goes by when it dosent need a soft reset to sort some issue.. And I'm running it "as is" out of the box ..
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] SiBorg:
Excuse me if this has been covered elsewhere, but I haven't managed to find anything on it...

I have just spent all day upgrading my O2 XDAIIi with the ROM 1.11.162 update from the O2 website - most of which was spent reinstalling all my programs, setting up the connections, e-mail accounts, etc.

Is there any way I can update the Radio to 1.03, without going through all that again!???

Please! :cry:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pug:
Unfortunately not. As soon as you have updated any key components of a pocket PC the device enters bootloader mode which you have to hard reset the device so you can use it again.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] andy-c1:
don't think so but ..but the way i see it is if they are not good enough why must we suffer for their errors

but don't take my word for it as it probably is
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] ngoble:
I ask as it would be loaded on our company xda2i's

We have 250 xda2’s & 100 xda2i’s …. All on contract with O2.

Both types use similar xBackup images and a TwinMos 512MB Ultra-X SD card, full of company info. The xda2’s are ok , the xda2i’s are a pain… normal freezing, apps not always loading etc... all freezing seem to disappear when SD cards are removed !

We also use GPRS that’s active all day long.

I suppose I should try a small number on 1.11.162 & R1.03 firmware and then approach O2 with the results.. You never know, if it fixes our freezing issues they may even release an official upgrade.

The other reason I ask is that if I were to approach O2 I wouldn't want to drop you lot in the Sh~t wrt copyright.

Any suggestions ??
