Dear Sir,
My Name Ahmed Kadry, I'm Chief Technical Officer for GoodNews4me, I did upgrade to my 32MB O2 through the web site http://www.myxda.com "RUU_CEv31417wwe_O2-Asia_C1204.exe " and "RSU(GPRS_416_ENG_O2).exe", and after doing the upgrade I'm facing problems with GPRS connection and the telephone as well, The problem is when I connect through GPRS for the first time it works but after disconnecting from the GPRS and try to reconnect again it fails plus if any one tries to call me after disconnecting, my mobile become out of service. It only works if I switched my phone off and then on again, I checked with Vodafone our network operator here in Cairo Egypt, the technical people said it is O2 Problem.
I have tried to use another O2 without being upgraded it works fine, it will be highly appreciated if you could advise on the subject, or how can I go back to my original ROM without upgrade for both files
My current O2 Info is:
IMEI: 350312010540248
ROM version: 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date: 10/11/02
Radio: 4.16
Protocol: 32S54
Mmmm.
I've had this as well. I'd be keen to find out a work around.
Cheers!
Simon.
Me too
Me and two of my friends are facing the exact same problem with GPRS connection after the upgrade, couldn't figure out a solution till now.
Thanks for sharing :shock:
hi all,
i think the only solution for this problem is to downgrade your RUU to 3.14.13, i faced the same problem before with asian upgrade !
after downgrade every thing is fine even battery life became better
best regards
The soultion is there
The solution is to uogarde to 4.17 it is avilable now on the following sit
www.myxda.com. It works perfect

May you send me the RUU and RSU file via Email? Or give me an other address to download it.
It's because my XDA have a IMEI that isn't allowed to download.... :-(
You can use my email: [email protected]

Stefan

since phone upgrade i have noticed that gprs is a tad faster. 8)
Does it support Sim Tool Kit
Hi Ali,
Does this upgrade have the sim tool kit?
Thanks in advance :?:
isn't this the same version everyone has been using?
I just have to run the executable file right? I don't need an SD Card writer or anything for this download? just my normal connection and activesync? what if the upgrade screws up? can i reload the old ROM image? and where do i get it!
Thanks a lot!

Is it possibile to upgrade to wm2003 thru USB cradle ? My current version for Asian XDA is:
ROM version: 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date: 10/11/02
Radio: 4.17
Protocol: 32S54
Has anyone tried to upgrade an asian XDA (EN version) ? Any problems ?
Thanks,
I upgraded my XDA last night via my USB cradle. I had NO problems at all. Took a little longer than normal :?: But other than that it was fine.
Gil

I had the same set upwith yours previously. I upgraded to SER 1.2 and WM 2003 after that. I also upgrade my radio stack to 4.21 from O2 UK. But now, I am back with SER 1.2 and Radio stack 4.21. I wish Icould go back to my old Radio Stack 4.17.
With 4.21 Ilost the "G" and signal strength for GPRS.
I hope my experience helps.
Beeheij, why didn't you keep the 4.17 radio version with WM2003 ? Was it not running properly ?
I think it's always dangerous upgrading the radio module with newer version dedicated to other regions (UK)
Thanks,
brix3,
I want to back to 4.17, but I cannot. Somehow during the process of rolling back I was kicked out.
As for the WM2003, the problem was in the SMS mode. When I picked a phone number, the "+"sign in my contact was not transferred tothe address in the SMS. So each time I wanted to send SMS, I had to correct the phone number.
My Battery Pack was not working. It hung my XDA.
Hope this helps
Has anyone in the US used or done this upgrade? Since it also upgrades the Radio Stack I'm just wondering. If GPRS is getting dropped as stated in other posts it is more that the network drops you or you lose data connection between cells, or the network has a load balance that give placement to voice users over data when bandwidth is needed. Not so much that your radio stack does it.
On the other hand just incase anyone wants to prove me wrong :wink: who in the US has upgraded their radio stack to O2 4.21 and experienced a better performance than AT&T's radio stack (speed stability as staed on their website) :?: This means you probably already had to manually switch the default band 8) first, right? :x
Let me know I love to be wrong :shock: ......I'm only that much smarter than I was yesterday :roll: :lol:
I'm a little confused. I upgraded to XDA v1.2 and my Device Informations are:
ROM Version: 3.17.03
ROM Date: 05/15/03
Radio Version: 6.18.00
Protocal Version: 324e4
How is it that my radio version is so much higher?

i must admit this version of ppc2003 is the dogs danglys compared to the old ozone version

as far as i know XDA v1.2 will not touch your Radio, it will just replace your old CE ROM with the new one which has lots of cool stuff.

Hello,
My name is bee from Jakarta, Indonesia. I'm an XDA O2 user.
I just upgraded my ROM version to 3.17.03 and Radio version to 4.21 which I downloaded from myxda.com. But I have problem after upgrading which I can not connect to GPRS line anymore.
Do you have any suggestion to solve this problem? Anything that could make GPRS connection works again? Please advise.
Thank you,

Sorry to say that a lot of user is stuck with this RSU 4.21 including me, Which can't downgrade back to older version. You might need to wait for newer version.
Friendly speaking only saw a post from this forum that ONE person manage to revert back the RSU. :wink:
:lol:
On my xda (MDA from T-Mobile Germany) I made a complete update with RUU & RSU from this file "4.00.10 - official-tmo2003.rar". After that I experienced same probs as any (?) other European user. So I decided to switch back: I downloaded my old 3.23 RSU from T-Mobile Germany (http://www.t-mobile.de/downloads/software/t_mobile_mda_gsm_gprs_update_v3_23.exe and installed it. While installing to my desktop I ignored an error that says I am trying to install an older version and I should not do that blablabla. It automatically installs (copies) every needed file to the xda via ActiveSync add/remove software dialog.
The updateprogram starts automatically on the xda. It goes slowly to 100% without any error but after a self-performed soft reset it starts again?! So I looked in the StartUp folder and there it was: the program rsuupdate... Incorrectly it was still there, so I deleted it myself.
Now I have a RUU V 4.00.10 ENG with PW10B1 (on my german PW10A1) and a RSU V 3.23. It's running more stable than everytime before.
Chris
Thanks for the post Chris, I just tried that solution but my O2 Xda just hangs when trying to install the T-Mobile upgrade with an error message in german. it was worth a try though.
error message
The error says "Wenn ein Upgrade durchgefuhrt wird mussen sie das Gerat vom Strommetz trennen"
just sussed the error. it must mean take the pda out of the cradle .... doh

looks like it worked it logged onto the network straight away. ill keep an eye on it, and keep you updated.
Thanks for the info your a STAR.
Chris (species)
I just came back in from garden, where I were lying in the sun and planning the barbecue for tonight. 8) Great weather here but unfortunately today is my last day of holiday
Yes, the error message says " While upgrading you must disconnect your device from the power line."

update
new problem.
After turning the phone part off, I find that I cant turn it back on again. if I reflash with 4.21 the phone turns on but again the no signal problem comes back
When I say phone part, what I mean is the pda works fine just the phone connection
glad the weather is nice for you .. here in the UK North East coast we are having heavy rain and thunder storms. its nice n cool though and gives me an excuse to sit here and check out the new threads.

Uh, that sounds not good.. We have 30 °C (86 °F) and a lot of sun.
Which RSU did you use? The german one from T-Mobile.de? I suppose it is optimized in any way. Try the English one at http://www.o2.co.uk/personal/xda/docs/Radio_Stack_Upgrade_v421.zip
Chris (meanwhile outside in the sun with laptop and WLAN)
T-Mobile versions don't have GPRS 4+1 AFAIK...
Chris.
yep I used the T-mobile one in your origional post and it works fine until you turn of the radio part on the pda. The alternative link you suggested is the one that has the big problems radio stack v4.21 from O2 Uk.
no worries, ill just have to wait until O2 uk sort out the bugs
thanks for all the advice much apreciated
Chris (species)
RSU problems...
I also had some problems after upgrading to 4.21 (including not seeing my home network!!!).
I went into the bootloader and siwtched to DualBand GSM 900/1800, and then everything worked again. BUT then you NEVER go anymore in the menu BAND of your settings or it will switch you back to old config.
Give it a try,
Laurent
Thanks Ill give that a try and keep everyone posted on the situation
Chris (species)
Still the same im afraid,
looks like I will be waiting for O2 to do some bug fixing and releasing an update. Unless anyone knows better ?
Hi,
I have been having connectivity issues with my PPC, the GPRS connects for about 2 minutes and then disconnects with a message "cannot connect due to unknown reasons...".
This was initially a problem that my friend faced, hence just to check it out if there was a problem was with the device or the phone, I used his SIM and connected on my phone which worked fine…now after a week I have been facing the same problem.
Please help, both of us cannot use the GPRS for more than 2 minutes…Please assist.

Hello Mister B,
Thank you for your response. I have done as suggested in the post, but to no avail the problem still persists.
What I am unable to understand is how I was effected by the same problem as my friend after using his sim on my device.
Any further help in this regard would really be valued.
Kind regards,
