Upgrade ROM from 3.02.00 ENG..

hi everyone her....
i just bought my new xda, and after I take a look it the rom version is 3.02.00 ENG (05/27/02) and the radio version is 4.01 and I read in the web that my xda is for european market....
since i live in Indonesia (Asia) I want to ask everybody here, is it possible to upgrade to version 3.17 (for asian xda) ?
I ask the authorized reseller in here if it possible to upgrade but they don't guarantee and afraid it will not work...
thanks a lot!!!

Flashing Radio Version

Having problems with Radio Version 4.21 from England, ie the phone will not work (I am in Australia). The phone was working OK until I performed the upgrade
It has been suggested that I install Radio Version 6.12 from T-mobile and I have downloaded the file from Yorch, this comes up as an nbf file and I wonder if I should flash it as I can not find RSUupgrade.exe. Any suggestions ?
Chris

You downloaded the wrong file go back to Yorch's site and look under Upgrades and download "USA T-mobile Latest Radio Stack (Unofficial)
RU 6.24.00".

dont Australia use 900/1800 like europe ?
if that is the case the us RSU would ruin the phone even more

Hello Qman,
Thank you for your reply! But great news here as I have managed to get my RSU version to work in Australia.
My carrier is Optus and SIM card is fine.
Basically by trying most RSU versions I wasn’t able to get the phone to work. Funny thing is I tried the RSU version for the O2, which is supporting here in Australia but to no avail! I ended up using the new T- Mobile for the US and works like a dream have fully signal as well.
New version is RSU 6.24.
Cheers Erebus,

Further to my problems I upgraded to the T-mobile 2003 ROM an their latest Radio stack 6.24 and all is working OK.
I had sent the XDA to Melbourne (Australia) to the accredited Service company (Accord) and they had sent it back saying that it was buggered. I had some very helpful advice from Peter and Joe and have everything working fine. Curiously, when I had XDA 1.2 and the T-mobile Radiostack the phone kept crashing after reboot. Since upgrading to T-Mobile 4.00.21 ENG and Radio version 6.24.00 all works well.
I did try to download some Medical software (MIMS) and thisd has proven to be a bit of a problem. The tech dude at MIMS was not too impressed with Pocket-PC 2003

Great, glad to hear it all worked out ok! 8)

Seems R 6.24 works in many wheres ... I put it on a friend's XDA and it works now (Egypt 900/1800) ... just wonder if it's wise to go for ROM 4.00.21 or keep the 4.00.11 .... I heared that you can't change the ROM after T-mobile ROMs ... is that true ?

Thats great news on RS 6.24, thanks for the tip!
As far as not being able to change ROM's after upgrading to a T-Mobile WM2003 ROM, it will still work but you must use the SD card boot loader upgrade method.

Help needed, this morning I flash my XDA with USA T-mobile Latest Radio Stack (Unofficial) but not working for my GSM 900. So I flash it back to O2 Latest Official Radio Stack RU 4.21 but it flash until 83% stop forever. So i do a soft rest. Then my XDA can't boot. Can someone help me out on this method? I'm in Malaysia. Using 900/1800 bandwidth.

Hi ...
If you have taken SD backup before upgrading, then go for bootloader menu, press Calendar button, and turn off the Radio part. Try to flash your XDA back to the original ROM and RSU, and then perform a hard reset.
In case you didn't, try the Qtek offical RSU 3.25 from http://www.carrierdevices.com.au/downloads.php?region=Asia Pacific. It works good for Asian operators.
Good luck

Problem FIXED... Thanks for the big help.

T-mobile PPC2002 ROM anywhere?

I've upgraded my XDA to WM2003 T-mobile build and it just crashes over and over, so I need to downgrade back to PPC2002. Does anyone know where I can get the T-mobile build? lumpistefan just has European and Asian builds for PPC2002.
Thanks.

hi. here is the link that you can download(latest wm 2002 from Tmobile)

or visit yorch website: http://www.yorch.net
I can find tmobile 2003 here but it is a trial demo version.
BTW, I would like to have a room 2003 for tmobile. Can you help me? Thanks. Currently the tmobile website turn off the upgrade link.

hoanghon

EU vs. us roms are the same that is if they are english language (which most are) and could be that settings and extra included programs differ also
of cause radiostacks are different because of the 900/1800 vs. 900/1900

http://xda.weblink.net You can cook any Rom on are taste

hello. this is respond for josephz because he lives in the united states. But if you are outside of the US. Please take Rudegar's commends.

Need: Newest T-mobile US RSU please

I'm looking to upgrade to the latest T-mobile USA RSU. The latest I have found is RU 6.24.00 on yorch.net but I've been reading through the forums and I believe there is a newer one. I get terrible reception on my XDA and I'm in south florida. Can anyone request a different RSU or the latest from T-mobile? Thanks in advance...

Thanks for the site. I downloaded 6.25.02 but I have not installed it yet. Anyone use this RSU yet? Hows the reception with it compared to others?

What Radio does the Official T-mobile UK 2.1 ROM use?

Hi all, Does anyone know which radio the official T-Mobile UK 2.1 RUU is using.
Cheers,
Higgsy

Menu->Settings->About Phone->Baseband version.

I am pretty sure it's the same one as the GSM unbranded one, which is the most recently made available one.
15.14 iirc

Yeah I know the radio I'm using, theory was that I would try the radio that the official T Mob RUU uses, as that one has been tested on T Mob. Pulser - cheers mate - might give that one a try, still using the old JU radio at the mo

Seems like T-Mobile UK are pushing a new one out via OTA. Did a fresh one last night and got.............
Baseband version - 63.18.55.06MU_6.35.13.09

Anyone know which radio for 3 UK is best ? Please provide a link to the latest. Updating radio loses root ?
