PPC2003 on Asian XDA - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Did someone upgrade his/her Asian XDA (EN language) to PPC2003 ?
Any problems ?
From what version (sw/radio) ?
Let's exchange our experiences.
Thanks,

Yes, I did. I upgraded my XDA from the shown in O2 Asia to:
ROM Ver: 4.00.01 ENG
ROM date: 05/16/03
Radio Ver: 4.21.00
Protocol Ver: 32S54
So far so good.

Dear beeheij,
how come did you upgrade radio version to 4.21.00 ? Did you get it from non-asian O2 web sites (UK) ?
On this page http://www.myxda.com/web/template/SoftwareUpgradeIntro.vm
you can find latest versions as follows for Asian XDA:
ROM version: 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date: 10/11/02
Radio: 4.17
Protocol: 32S54
Did you use wm2003.exe (obtained from here) with cradle and USB ?
Did you check GPRS, GSM, ... ?
Thank you !

Hi Brix3,
I did upgrade the RSU from O2UK. My XDA original version of ROM and RSU was the one that is provided by the O2-Asia. I upgraded the RSU from O2UK because I thought I could get an improvement on the signal reception, but it seems to be useless. In fact, my wish is to get back to the RSU 3.17, but I could not. I got all sort of error messages, and it is dangerous to play around with RSU. The signal meter in RSU 4.21.00 seems to be unreliable and poor.
Yes, I upgraded my ROM with the WM2003.exe using ActiveSync 3.7. The GPRS and GSM are all working well so far. I like WM2003, in particular because of the SMS facilities.
Let me know if I could be of help further.

yeah well i tried wm2003 on my xda, but things got worse. i got pops in my calls, frequent disconnections and basically very poor connection. loved the OS, a bit slow though, but nevertheless i'll wait for the latest version. now on SER 1.2, a lot nicer, but very cluttered!

Thank,
I have and Asian O2 XDA and have flashed my RSU with a 4.21, I think its the euro version since I put it on before the 7/30/2003 and I didn't get it from MMO2 Asia (I can't remember where I got it from).
Can I flash back to the Asian 4.21? The RSU 4.21 I currently have doesn't have Wmodem but I see on the asian web site the asian 4.21 does.
Why not ?

Help: Upgrade QTEK 900/1900

Hi all,
I have tried to read and understand how to upgrade my PocketPC phone, but unfortunately I am still confused:
I have non branded Microsoft "qtek" phone modelW10B1 (GSM 900/1900) with
ROM VERSION: 3.14.P6 ENG
ROM DATE: 09/26/02
Radio version: 6.18
Protocol version 324e4
Where to find the correct upgrade files?
or can someone kindly send them to me?
I would appreciate ANY help in this matter...
All the best,
Ampi
ROM is not the point. You can cook your ROM from the kitchen here. But the radio stack is so critical since you are using 900/1900. You better get the last update from your network provider or at least ask some one who's using the same network.

Hello All
I have looked through all the forums and even google to look for a rom Version 4.00.01 but to no avail . I am trying to get my SX56 picking up the south african networks.
Finally can anyone tell me what the GSM ROM should be for SA I do not plan to upgrade but want to make sure it will work !!
Your help as usual much appreciated.
4.00.11 as available from the ROMkitchen should work fine.
Greetings from SA. Now, you can use the 4.00.11 ROM at Jeff's kitcken which works fine in SA. I am using it currently.
I never touched the GSM ROM on my qtek. Details are
Rom Version: 4.00.11 ENG

Radio Version : 3.23.01 Original
Protocol Version: 32S54 Original
I downloaded from Jeff's kitchen.
Should work fine if you stick to this.
