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!!!

UK XDAII with 1.03.00 USA ROM ?

Hi All,
I have had my XDAII for a couple of weeks now and am going to upgrade it to the new 1.60 UK ROM tonight. Bit worried though because when I check in device information, the ROM stated is 1.03.00 USA.
Has my XDAII got the correct ROM on it ? Will the UK 1.60 ROM upgrade this USA ROM ok ?
Thanks for your help,
Rgds,
Rob.

Mine was exactly the same mate, bought just a week and a half ago from Onestopphoneshop.
USA Rom, radio version 1.05 etc.
It's still a proper UK XDA2, just not sure why the USA version of ROM.
Suffice to say, this morning, my XDA2 is a 1.60.00 WWE (world wide european?) ROM, working perfectly on Radio version 1.10
As a result of my UK ROM Upgrade last night.
In other words - yes, its fine mate - as long as you ARE a UK XDA2 user of course, in the UK...

Yes, mine was a USA ROM too, but now its WWE with the new upgrade.

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll give it a whirl now
Ta,
Rob.

WWE = World Wide English

All upgraded and working fine.
Thanks for the help guys.

magician radio 1.13 question

hi everyone. i have come across the magician radio 1.13 file in this forum and i was wondering...... if i could do this upgrade on my phone. i am using the xda mini and here are my current configurations:
rom version: 1.11.00 wwe
rom date: 03/14/05
radio version: 1.11.00

Yes you should be able to, look out for Rom 1.12 as well. :wink:

one more question before i decide to go on with the upgrade. im currently located in Indonesia. Are you sure i can do this radio upgrade? is this radio upgrade good for all magician, mini, mda compact and such or is this upgrade country or operator specific?
thanks for the reply. i just need to make sure before i do this upgrade because i have read some pretty terrifying upgrade stories in this forum.

This upgrade is not operator/country specific. But like all upgrades it is your choice to do it. (But worth it).This is how I got my radio 1.13, from the forum.

U Go here (xda/xda)

once again, thank you very much!

UK MDA Vario 2 latest roms etc?

Does anybody know the latest offical ROM etc for the T-Mobile Vario2?
Mine is off back to T-Mobile tommorow for checking out over battery life.
My current details are:
ROM Version: 1.21.110.3
ROM Date: 06/19/06
Radio Version: 1.05.05.00
Protocol Version: 32.36.7010.04H (Whatever that is!)
I would like them to update it whilst its away, but I wonder if there is a newer one I can officially have.
Cheers

Sorry to bump up; but can somebody with a new model check their ROM please? Or is there somewhere on this site that has a list of latest "approved" versions?
Cheers

Look at the wiki for shipped ROMS
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
Looks like you're not far off the latest official versions

Thanks Sparky

Well, received back today.
Repair docket said replaced mainboard/unit exchanged plus software upgraded.
The phone is new as imei number is different.
But ROMS etc are all same version.

I am using this Rom
Rom Version 1.35.255.2
Rom Date 11/14/06
Rom Version 1.18.00.10
Protocol Version 32.55.7018.01H
ExtRom Version 1.35.255.102
I got this from the Wiki Site. Works real well i think!
I just wanna get the vista onto my MDA Vario II. If it runs faster thats all i want!!!

DOnt want to sound stupid...... but what would I get (over my standard T-Mobile image) if I upgraded to this or the even newer HTC one (2.05.255.1 - 01/17/07 ). Whats the AKU etc?

Please try to search for your answers! Use google or the forum's search function and you'll be helped. You'll find so much information, some are for beginners, some are for advanced users. And if you find yourself left with specific questions come back and ask them. Thanks.

Sorry chaty, but I did try searching and could not find the answer, this is why I asked!

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 ?
