T-Mobile MDS with O2 Radio stack

Hi All,
I hope someone here can help me with this. I have a T-Mobile MDA, i was playing around with O2 site and i found the Radio Stack Upgrade 4.21. I upgraded it and after the upgrade was finished successfully, the Phone doesn't want to get service... asa it opens up it gives me the Antena and an ! next to it and says No Service.
What could be the problem and how can i get back the old stack.
Hope that someone can HELP me..
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi, if I'm understanding your problem correctly then what I suggest is:
Go to Start-Settings-System and select the Auto-Configuration application. This should allow you to choose your operator from a list and it will then auto configure your GSM/GPRS settings and reset the device, after which it should work.
Good luck
Steve

Hi
I cant' find any Auto-Configuration app what is it called?
thx

dat version dont have auto config :?:

Asian XDA WM2003 Upgrade

Hi All
I am new to this forum and wanted to upgrade my Asian XDA to WM2003. I try to download the rom in Yorch.net but it doesnt seem to work at all. However i did find this T-mobile ROM Windows Mobile 2003
upgrade 4.00.21. Does this version work for Singapore Singtel Network? Or am i missing something here? I have read most of the forum here and is still quite confused. Can anyone here give a step by step guide on how to upgrade to WM2003 (which version) for ASIAN (especially Singapore) XDA? Pls share your experience.

hi rchtan
If you have not done so yet get the latest official upgrade for yr region and flash the radio this will give you "always on connection" and better stability.
Record all yr network settings as you will need to enter again after.
For WM2k3 Just get the 4.00.05 rom forget the higher numbers as its just the telco adjusting for their particular network and likely to cause more instability if you are not on Tmobile.
Get the installer EXE version and just click on it to install from yr desk top.
Make sure you are connected to activesync and switch off yr radio in case of incoming calls. You can add the extra progs avoiding the ppc2002 marked, forget the imov messanger(Jeff's never worked) you can get a working version fm their web site.
Hope this helps.

Hi alqwerty
Thanks for your reply. Another question which might seem stupid. How do we cook a ROM? I went to this link http://kitchen.romanweb.com/kitchen/index.php and if i left the "Add software and modify ROM" as click, there a big red warning sign "OVERLOAD"??!! Is it okay if i just download the base rom?

Hi rchtan
Start with clicking on 4.00.05 ENG ppc2003.
Then move from top to bottom clicking on what progs you need and unclicking those that you dont want(especially unclick all the ppc2002 marked ones). until the overload sign goes away. Then click on
installer EXE then click on build rom now. When its
cooked download the rom. Good luck

I have the Offical O2 (UK) PPC 2003 (4.01.12 ENG) Rom!!!

I have just got my xda back from being fixed by O2 and they seem to have upgraded my rom.
Before I sent the xda to them the rom was simply the latest ppc2002 rom from their website.
However now everything has changed and my rom version is 4.01.12 ENG
This seems to be an official release form O2 as I have their auto configuration and boot screen.
My bootloader has also been upgraded to V5.22.
I have backed up the rom using XDATools and hope to upload it to the site although its approx 31mb.
This seems to be all official and what everyone has been waiting for however if i've completly missed the point please let me know (politely please )
As an added note I have two broken xda's for sale: -
1) A 64mb XDA with the above rom installed. The screen is smashed, and will need replacing, or you could just use the motherboard in another xda. The unit does not charge for some reason, possibly the fuse which is a simple enough fix.
2) A 32mb XDA with the above rom installed. The screen is intact, however will most of the time it will only display lines, you can get a screen sometimes but this is very rare. It must be possible to fix this, but its way beyond me. Again the motherboard has been tested in my other xda.
Please email me at [email protected] if you would like to make me a serious offer.
Thanks
Martin.

So how do the rest of us get it. Do we have to send our XDA's back to O2?

So did you uploaded the ROM yet? can you provide us a link? thanks

thanks for the file, sorry bout my doubt but it took so long.. so anyone tried this yet? does it work with asian XDA1? im still downloading it. it will take some time for me coz im using dial up thanks.
::adit

great !
it IS real :shock: thanks Martin
how on earth we only found out right now ?
any insiders ? is it gonna be official or it's an old tryout from O2 ?
It HAS wmodem but I connect through Irda (i have no serial on my notebook).
Can someone try and confirm that it works on Irda on Windows XP
Steps for using wmodem:
1. install ircomm2k from http://www.ircomm2k.de/english
2. add a new modem (manual selection Standard 32600 bps) on the new com installed by ircomm2k
3. add to AT commands AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","apn","",0,0
4. create a new DUN with the number at *99#
5. use if there is any username/password
Mine works fine but I cannot connect. It does communicate and ends on "verifying password" step.
Any help ?

thats great!! thanks very much martin,what about the auto config? does it show any asian provider? such as thailand AIS, DTAC or indonesian indosat, telkomsel, etc? thanks in advance...

Normally this should happen Automaticly, since the CallerID.CAB fiel is int eh startup directory....
But it's a nice trick to get it working...
[edit]
Soory, forgotten to mention, that this ROM is now available in the Kitchen. I also tried to get the Autoconfigration working. Cooking went fine, but i didn't have the possibility to test it.
So fell free and test this ROM with Autoconfiguration......
Check http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org

Hi, i just installed the ROM and now it works perfectly well, caller ID installs automatically at the startup when the welcome screen appear after the upgrade? XDAMAN, what was the problem? i am using DTAC provider (okay, theres no autoconfig so i had to set up everything manually) everything works perfectly well? i feel its a lot more faster than other ROMs i tried (Siemens ROM, T-Mobile, betas, etc) the best ROM i've ever used!thanks again martin

big problem help please

hello i have an big problem my wallaby dont connect to the phone network so i can't use the phone
please can someone help me i live in the netherlands my operator is tmobile
my rom version is 4.01.16 ENG
rom date 02.04.04
radio version 6.24.00
protocol version 324e4
is this wrong??
please help
greeting cor

Try entering bootloader, power switch held down while pushing stylus in reset, then push the button below the antenna, then choose 900/1800. You will need to do a backup first.

Your rom versions show that it is PW10B1 version (north american version GSM 900/1900).
If your local SP provides GSM 900 service, switch the band to GSM 900 (Setting > phone > Band > choose GSM 900

i have set the gsm band to 900 but it won't help he is stil searching for network
does someone have another solution???

There is another possibility, your phone is PW10A1, but the firmware and radio stack had been "upgraded" to PW10B1. So you won’t get any signal.
Check the label on back to see it is PW10B1 or PW10A1.

yes you are right that is it but where can i find the good stuff

so i must change my hardware version to pw10a1
any idea how i can change that??

now i have tries to update it via asimagetools
but i get a message
itsdcardinfo:niet nader omschreven fout
error opening target device
please can someone help me

Buy a new device (PW10A)....
No ohter way to change hardware......
Stefan

you need change radio stack back to PW10A, but risky

so i cannot set it back to PW10A ?????

you can flash the radio stack back to PW10A

Well, my device is PW10A1, but when i had T-Mobile 4.01.16 rom on my xda, it said PW10B1. Therefore check the back of your xda, if it says PW10A1 then you HAVE that version, just the rom says not. hehe. About flashing: you can not use programme a to flash your XDA when you have an T-mobile rom on it; you can only flash it with the SD-card method (use forum search). Try to flash in an 4.01.12 version (O2), i found it better than the T-mobile one.

massage for cgigate and stefan

Additional question
Sorry if my question is stupid but I recently bought a T-Mobile XDA and it was sim locked. I unlocked it using the xda-developers special rom and now I'm looking for update to WM2003SE (if possible). I followed the link that Stefan posted and found a lot of rom updates there. Only I don't know if I use one of these will my phone lock again. Also, what does the "Opearator" column mean? My operator is not listed and I would like my new software to be universal - not dependent on any operator......

Upgrading ROM or Radio Version will not change the stat, that the device is unlocked.....
Operator Conig is the Config-Files from the operator. So if your operator is not listed, you could use a device without operator config.
The operator config is mostly used for the autoconfiguration of the device (GPRS, WAP, ...)
Stefan

Thank you
Thank you very much, Stefan. I will try it tonight. I think I can always switch it back to the xda-developers version if I don't like the 2003..... Can I? Also, what should I install in order to make my Wallaby ring using mp3 files? Thanks again.
