New Dutch O2 ROM Version v3.17.03 and Radio Version v4.21

:lol: Maybe you already know this, but the Dutch O2 site offers a upgrade to Rom v3.17.03 and Radio v4.12. I'm currently downloading this version so I can't tell what's new so rest will follow !

You mean Radio 4.21 probably, not 4.12...

:shock: Sorry, type-error. I didn't see on the O2 site what's improved in this version. I hope less 'No signal' messages !!

Can i use the unlock on this versions ?
regards. lars

I already managed to get my xda unlocked thanxs anyway!!
regards Lars.

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

Radio Stack for Australia

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
Chris

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.

Windows Mobile 2003 Release date announced!!!!!!

T-Mobile Germany has annouced the release date for the Windows Mobile 2003 ROM for the XDA I as December 29th. Hopefully T-Mobile USA will announce something similar today. :roll:
http://www.t-mobile.de/mda/software/1,5193,7482-_,00.html

But this is only for German Model, isn't it?

hmmmm ... and how about the language version ?!
to me seems like only German is to be available ... too bad

Release date is now beginning January
Hope there will be an update....

HI Monika,

Is it English version?
Can it be used in Asia?
Many thanks,

hello, I got it from http://www.yorch.net/ but I use an US version of XDA, for me it's hard to say whether it suits Asian hardware version, my rough guess is that Radio Stack version shall be different .... unfrtunately I have never came across the Asian hardware version
but before making any upgrades read that forum, e.g.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4630
and also the other threads just to double check
regards, monika

Tks Monika,
But I see that you are using WM2003 T-mobile ROM 4.00.21.
From Yorch, 4.00.21 is only nbf file which is not nb1 so that I can't use the SD method for upgrading.
Any hint?

i have PW10A1 and i installed the v4.01.00 tmobile update i just downloaded an cooked rom from yroches kitchen then unzipped it all and replaced the nbf file from the v4.01 over the cooked rom nbf and flashes it that way works fine on english netowrks and i still have 900/1800 mhz just what ever you do do not go into phone options and click on the band tab if you do you will loose 1800mhz bank and then be on 900/1900 if you do this load up the bootloader click the calendar button and click on gsm 900/1800 and itll say reset or some crap do this then softreset and youll have 900/1800 back again but dont click on the band tab or youll have to do this.
gaz
p.s ive found it to be quite stable so far but seems to run kinda slower then v4.00.11 but it has improved features

hi
few questions
I have US tmobile Pocket PC Phone so it is type B so I flashed with no problem with 4.01.00 (RUUv2.04b_CEv4.01.00wwe_VS_Ozone_Test_(Integrate_Radio_6.24.01).exe) so I think that this soft will work fine with Monika's XDA if it is American....
Monika your XDA is from AT&T ? or TMobile ?
Is it ok to use it with European PW10A1 ?
gaz do you have exactly same ROM as I have ? (check my signature)
and this problem with band tab is only one ?
do you see TMobile logo when U do a soft reset?
Anybody use this soft ver. in Europe?

i use 4.01.00 with asian radio stack 4.21.01 with no problem
i used flash method when upgrading the rom
i unzip the exe file, took the .nbf file and write it to my sd card using OSImageTool and boot my xda with the SD card... 5 minutes later my XDA is running WM2003 with the latest ROM version :lol:
for asian users, do not open the band tab... if you do that, you have to go to bootloader and choose band 900/1800 to make your xda work again

Hi Toshiro,
I am a bit confused. The 4.00.21 nbf file from Yorch cannot be used by OSImageTool since I tried that before and confirmed by someone else in this forum. He said only nb1 file can be used for SD method.
Also, where did you get this 4.01.00 ROM?
Thanks v much.

Use XDArit.exe insted of the OSImageTool and you can write it to an SD card. www.yorch.net has 2 versions. if the newer one doesn't work, try the older one. I also found I have to unplug my cradle from my computer to get XDArit to work properly.

But that's integrated with the us radio which is not suitable for me.

How can I restore my system to the original states

Hello,
I know that I should'nt have do that, but I need your help.
I upgrade my MDA on the following state :
Rom : 4.01.16 Eng
RSU : 4.21.00
For buisness reson I have to go back to the original state.
Rom : 3.18.01 ENG
RSU : 3.23.00
Unfortunatly I didn't do a Backup
I have acces to some MDA with the originale rom and rsu
My question is how to go back to the originale state, without destroying the other mda with the originale rom? via bootloader?
Thanks in advance

The ROM part is easy, you can get the original 3.18 ENG from the carrier devices site http://www.carrierdevices.com.au/downloads.php?region=Asia Pacific
The RSU might be your nightmare especially that you have 4.21 which showed to be the pain for most people here ... anyway, in the same site you will find RSU 3.25 for Qtek ... it's almost the same as 3.23.
Good luck

Biso007 Thanks for you answer,
I look at your link but it seems to be the Qteck version, I really need the officiale t-mobile version.
Is there any way to save the originale one in one of the other phone that I have access and restore to my one?

Biso: Is the rom found in http://www.carrierdevices.com.au/downloads.php?region=Asia Pacific WM2003? What radio version it contain? Is it compatible with PW10B1 device?
I'm now running T-Mobile ROM 4.01.16 ENG, Radio 6.25.02. I'm plannning to change the Radio to be compatible with Asia-Pacific and in the US (I've been going to Asia and back to the States for business, so I want a device compatible with both Asia-Pacific and US). Thanks

ok I Download the old version on a new phone via OSimagetool to my sd card and put it on my device. working perfectly.
So now I just have to downgrade the radio stack to 3.23.00, where I can find it and how to downgrade?

I download the file here
http://www.t-mobile.at/business/mobiles_arbeiten/MDA/SWupdates/
Looks like it's working, (at least I have the right number at startup)
the only problems that I had it's that rhe rsupgrade was lauch every time I startup, I had to delete the file rsupgrade on startup folder. now it's working like before.
Thanks a lot.

By the way, does it exist a solution in mda to copy contact name to the sim card?

No, it's PPC2002 and the RSU is 3.25 for PW10A devices (900/1800). I know it coz it was on my device before I replace the mother board with a B-type one.
If you are going to use 900 MHs network in Asia you can keep your current RSU ... I have it on my device and my network is 900/1800 ... other than this you better use 2 phones or get a new XDA II

Dealing with the SIM book is a matter of s/w and the device type (XDA or MDA or ... ) has nothing to do with it. You can find many freeware s/w to deal with the SIM entries.

ok thanks a lot, do you just have the name of one of this freeware?
