Backups

OK

So I avoid ActiveSync and use Sprite, hate to be a pain an' all, anyone got link to hand for Sprite?

You may well be able to solve another issue for me here...

Am I right in guessing that if you are changing between ROMS for a similar OS on the same device that backups are OK, but if you are changing ROMS for a different OS the device basically becomes a so different backups are no use?

Query on Device Info

Evening folks

Just completed the update to Pugs 162 ROM, third from the list at the top.

I used Sprite to backup before I started, update went without issue, then used Sprite to restore afterwards.

The only thing that puzzled me was when I checked the Device Information screen I see:

ROM Version 1.11.00 WWE

Radio Verson 1.04.00

ExtROM Version 1.11.112 WWE

Is this correct, kind of expected to see162 in there somewhere, has the restore from Sprite sent me partially back again?

hi,

If you wish to change the version number yourself, use a registry editor and go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\3RDVERSION and change the MSYSTEM value to whatever you like.

thanks :D
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] tomsimmons:
OK, so I take it from your reply that the revisions are correct for a successful update? I don't care if it is simply displaying the wrong number.

Being the first time I had upgraded and restored data afterwards I was worried in case the restore had possibly returned any thing to the my original ROM state.

Restoring files after a RoM upgrade is a waste of time as all you do is replace new files with old, you're better off just copying files you want to keep to your SD card and backing up your contacts.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] tomsimmons:
Ah the Man himself!

Thanks for your work chap.

OK, so if I do quick hard reset, that'll return me to your ROM as installed then I can just install the stuff I require, do a swift sync of contacts etc from Outlook and I'll be cooking on gas?

One small thing I discovered on the way to work this morning, the phone works fine on the handset, but although it dials and appeas 'in call' through the BT headset, I can't hear anything nor can the other party hear me. I did notice some....data noise (ahh the days of listening to modems).... when the BT headset opens a communication.

Tom,

What version of ROM are yu currently using, as found to my horror that the .169 version sucks with connection to Bluetooth devices, even the ones O2 recommend....

Have found the only stable version for bluetooth connectivity is .162... , albeit a step backwards....

God bless o2.... :(
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] tomsimmons:
God something O2 certainly!

I'm using Pugs 162 from the top of this thread (the 3rd one without the O2 junk in it, but with the Bluetooth and Camera changes)

Seems to be working fine so far.

I meant to post a follow up regarding my Bluetooth problem, I think I might have failed to read the screen properly and chosen the High Quality rather than headset otpion.

Rom Upgrade

Hi Pug,

I upgraded the rom/radio version on my qtek 2020i (which I bought second hand from the UK, an original Vodafone), using your image , so that I could hopefully get TT5 to work. Why? Cos I checked out several sites and most deemed it necessary to be using radio version 1.04 and a MMC plus card (which I have) for TT5.

The upgrade went ok, but now I can see that the the Windows image is a Pocket PC one and I no longer have Windows Mobile 2003SE. Secondly, this has done nothing to get TT working.

So basically, I want to go back to the original rom & radio versions and the original operating system on the Qtek 2020i.

Do you know where I can get an official Windows Mobile 2003SE OS, ROM, Radio version etc to put back on the Qtek2020i? I've tried looking everywhere, inlcuding Microsoft fot WM2003Se but to no avail. Du to the lack of official Qtek support.

Thanks,

ROM update for XDA IIi - need help

Hi Pug,

I have failed to install your ROM from the following links:

162 ROM with O2 crap removed, Radio 1.04, improved camera and extra Bluetooth profiles:

ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.co...2_Radio-1.04_O2stuffstripped_Camera_Fixed.rar

Standard 162 ROM, Radio 1.04, improved camera and extra Bluetooth profiles:

I have also tried from:

http://www.my-xda.com/xda2i_soft3.html

The failure is right at the beginning of the ROM setup: while it's tring to figure what kind of PPC, it declines by saying it's not the correct device for this ROM update setup.

What do I need to do to make it work?

Do you know where I can get a setup that will work for my XDA IIi?

I realy appreciate your help.

p.s.

I have bought my o2 XDA IIi in Thailand.

more details:

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] christopherwoods:
Sounds like you're not using the patched no_ID firmware updater (it doesn't check for the right device ID before it initiates the update). Download MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from the XDA-Developers FTP (ftp://xda:xda@xda-developers.com/Magician/Tools/MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe) and use that in place of the original Upgrade app (for instance, the default AlUpgradeUt.exe updater won't work with German O2 phones because the country ID is different, and the patched Magician Updater - MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe - doesn't look for a country ID... so, problem solved).

Hey,

I have 2 quite basic questions, but I just wondered...

My device is a Qtek 2020i (not O2, not Tmobile, no nothing :))

Rom v. 1.11.00 WWE

Date 2005/1/27

Radio: 1.02.00

First. Which one of your ROMs should i download? I figured Standard 162 ROM, Radio 1.04, improved camera and extra Bluetooth profiles.

Second and more importantly, why should I d/l the file? I mean what extra will I get to have? Does it worth it?

3. run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe

5. On the computer a window appear telling me that it checks my device.

6. A window with my ROM version details apear and with the new version it is about to install. -> next

7. A window appear telling me that it checks my device again.

8. Error window apear (Device Software Update Utility R100 01500-CB1.01 -1) with the following message:

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] christopherwoods:
Re: help needed

If you use xBackup to restore your old data, you're restoring everything - including the old registry - which will overwrite the new, fresh registry and all the new configuration settings that the rom upgrade brings to the device.

Basically, you should reflash the device again from scratch, and only use ActiveSync to restore your contacts (use something like smsBackup to backup and restore your contacts, or you can pay for a program from somewhere like handango but smsBackup is free so I use it)

In a few words, never use xBackup to restore your device after you've upgraded the firmware, because you'll totally mess it up.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] christopherwoods:
We need more details - what ROM did you use? Did you have any problems like the computer crashing after you started the upgrade? There are instructions on this thread for how to recover a 'bricked' device (as yours is, currently) by using the right combination of patch program and just redoing all the steps as you did first time.

Go read the threads and then give it another go. This post: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=297383#297383 may help you (follow the instructions exactly and you should be alright).

OK chaps - hope one of you might be able to answer a couple of basic questions!

I'm looking to load one of Pugs ROMs after reading about them and finally ditch all this O2 Active crap that is slowing me down. I'm running an O2 XDAIIi and just needed a couple of answers...

1) Is there any way to backup my text messages? I can backup my contacts by syncing with Outlook, but I wondered about actual text messages themselves?

2) Which ROM is best to use to strip me of the O2 Active stuff but that retains the connection settings? I tried changing the ROM a while back and could never get the connection settings for GPRS/O2 Active for MMS and the like?

3) Any O2 users out there that can give me any idea on which ROM they used, how it performs now and if they have trouble with MMS/SMS etc?

Cheers guys, I hate to ask the same thing like everyone else i.e. "Which ROM?" but just before I get faffing around with it all, I want to makes sure I'm using the right ROM from the off!

Cheers :)
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] beldaal:
I think that if you search, you'll find many posts on the subject of saving SMS - but (as I recall) few of them particular encouraging.

As far as getting rid of O2ActiveUI, the easiest way (as you're going to cold-start your XDA anyway) is simply to do just that, and then watch the re-install process CLOSELY. After a bit, you'll get to the question whether you want personal or corporate use - watch out, as it times out after a few seconds. Select Corporate, enter 0506 as password (but I have heard it will accept a blank password) and O2ActiveUI (and the O2 Dialling screen etc) won't get installed.

As far as the conection settings - I can't help you. I'm Vodafone, and they're very simple :) However, as you're still using your original O2 (EXT)ROM, they should come up as default.

Good luck!

Ext Rom Version 1.11.171.WWE

I would like to remove the 02 crap as I am on Vodafone Pay Monthly and so far have not been able to get a BT Headset working or be able to send MMS.

1. Do I hve to do any updates prior to using PUGS rar file?

2. How do I install/update the rom?

3. Do I need to take the SIM/SD cards out?

Sorry to be repetitive but I am nervous about upgrades etc :?

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] Donandar:
Lo dude - I did mine last night - backup anything you might want first... if you want to backup SMS/contacts etc. use Jeyo Mobile Companion - works a treat. You simply load up the program, pop your XDA in the cradle and you should see all the files in Jeyo that are on your mobile. Goto File > Export and save whatever you want to save!

Then download one of Pugs ROMs - I suggest:

162 ROM with O2 crap removed, Radio 1.04, improved camera and extra Bluetooth profiles:

ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.co...2_Radio-1.04_O2stuffstripped_Camera_Fixed.rar

I used this one and its been fantastic so far! Basically download the .rar file and un-rar to a folder anywhere on your computer. If you browse there, just read the read-me first and you're sorted! Pop the XDA in the cradle, run the file it tells you to run in the read-me and let it do its magic.

Once updated (anywhere from 10 - 40 minutes), do a hard reset (press power button and reset button at same time) and let it boot up. Let it install Windows Mobile and once done, you should find yourself faced with the today screen and no O2 rubbish (you should notice it doesn't install it or even ask the silly 'Personal' / 'Corporate' version question. You then know that all the O2 rubbish is gone.

There you have it!

Load back up Jeyo - pop your XDA in the cradle and once connected choose 'Import' and browse to the file you exported. Hit OK and voila - all your contacts and SMS messages will be put back on your XDA. The only things I can't help you with are connection settings for the Vodaphone stuff (MMS / GPRS etc.) - I'm sure someone out there can help you!
