Does it support Sim Tool Kit
Hi Ali,
Does this upgrade have the sim tool kit?
Thanks in advance :?:
isn't this the same version everyone has been using?
I just have to run the executable file right? I don't need an SD Card writer or anything for this download? just my normal connection and activesync? what if the upgrade screws up? can i reload the old ROM image? and where do i get it!
Thanks a lot!
hi from Riyadh
Hello again
well, what i have notice there are more then one version of WM2003
one of them which i downloaded from http://members.lycos.co.uk/xdarom/ where i couldn't downgrade using the nornal method and i was force to use SD Card to go back to my previous ROM but the other version which i downloaded from this FTP Server 195.64.88.44 xda/xda works pretty good and i was able to downgrade to XDA-Developers Special ROM version 1.2 with no problems and without using SD Card.

Is it possibile to upgrade to wm2003 thru USB cradle ? My current version for Asian XDA is:
ROM version: 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date: 10/11/02
Radio: 4.17
Protocol: 32S54
Has anyone tried to upgrade an asian XDA (EN version) ? Any problems ?
Thanks,
I upgraded my XDA last night via my USB cradle. I had NO problems at all. Took a little longer than normal :?: But other than that it was fine.

I had the same set upwith yours previously. I upgraded to SER 1.2 and WM 2003 after that. I also upgrade my radio stack to 4.21 from O2 UK. But now, I am back with SER 1.2 and Radio stack 4.21. I wish Icould go back to my old Radio Stack 4.17.
With 4.21 Ilost the "G" and signal strength for GPRS.
I hope my experience helps.
Beeheij, why didn't you keep the 4.17 radio version with WM2003 ? Was it not running properly ?
I think it's always dangerous upgrading the radio module with newer version dedicated to other regions (UK)
Thanks,
brix3,
I want to back to 4.17, but I cannot. Somehow during the process of rolling back I was kicked out.
As for the WM2003, the problem was in the SMS mode. When I picked a phone number, the "+"sign in my contact was not transferred tothe address in the SMS. So each time I wanted to send SMS, I had to correct the phone number.
My Battery Pack was not working. It hung my XDA.
Hope this helps
Has anyone in the US used or done this upgrade? Since it also upgrades the Radio Stack I'm just wondering. If GPRS is getting dropped as stated in other posts it is more that the network drops you or you lose data connection between cells, or the network has a load balance that give placement to voice users over data when bandwidth is needed. Not so much that your radio stack does it.
On the other hand just incase anyone wants to prove me wrong :wink: who in the US has upgraded their radio stack to O2 4.21 and experienced a better performance than AT&T's radio stack (speed stability as staed on their website) :?: This means you probably already had to manually switch the default band 8) first, right? :x
Let me know I love to be wrong :shock: ......I'm only that much smarter than I was yesterday :roll: :lol:
I'm a little confused. I upgraded to XDA v1.2 and my Device Informations are:
ROM Version: 3.17.03
ROM Date: 05/15/03
Radio Version: 6.18.00
Protocal Version: 324e4
How is it that my radio version is so much higher?

i must admit this version of ppc2003 is the dogs danglys compared to the old ozone version

as far as i know XDA v1.2 will not touch your Radio, it will just replace your old CE ROM with the new one which has lots of cool stuff.

All I want is a working phone ..

Hi !
I bought a tmobile pocket pc phone and need to get it unlocked
My ver. is 3.14.40 (Radio 6.18 pro' 324e4) so I can't use xdaunlocker.exe
Also, can't use developer's 1.2 (or 1.1,1.0) cause my version is old !!
Don't have a flash card, so I need an exe that will update my rom to any ver. which is unlocked. All other benefits of developers ver. will be nice, but it's not the main thing ..
Can anyone help ?
I'm also @ [email protected]
Thanks \!!
Just buy a serial cable and use the xda-manipulator. With that you will keep your original software and your xda gets unlocked.
Greetings, Kaputter :shock:

Taimur, I dont mind answering personal messages and I understand your reticence to mess with an expensive purchase without knowledge of all the downfalls, it is better to ask before a problem arises than after. Glad to have helped and I hope you enjoy using your new tool.

New O2 ROM v2.21.4.101

I just upgraded the ROM on my XDA Mini S to v2.21.4.101
First impressions are that is is MUCH faster! I was a bit upset when I got it this week due to the performance. Looks like a few things have changed again like the position of the clock!
Anyway, lets hope it performes activesync over USB properly!
Download the O2 ROM = http://xda.o2.co.uk/xdaMiniSoftware.aspx
Rich
What are the versions?
start->settings->about
os build?
start->settings->Device Information
ROM version?
ROM date?
Radio version?
Protocol version?
thanks.
My O2 XDA Mini S now reports:
OS 5.1.195 (Build 14847.2.0.0)
ROM version: 2.21.4.1 WWE
ROM date: 3/9/06
Radio version: 02.07.10
Protocol version: 413.1.03
ExtROM version: 2.21.4.101
Hope this helps.
Rich
PS. this is running soooo much faster! and syncing and staying connected every time 8)
Only thing different from the recent Qtek/i-Mate/... ROMs is the Extended ROM.
But it would be nice if somebody could get the cool today-plugin out of the extended O2 ROM
Hi guys,
I will have my XDA mini s next week, and I want to update it instantly.
Unfortunately, I live in Jordan(Asia) and when I attemp to download the update from o2 site, they require me to give them an o2 number, and I dont have this.
can anybody help? can anybody upload the ROM upgrade on this forum please? any ideas... Please help :roll: :?
Thank you all
If you still need an O2 UK number to get the download use this one
+447933636910
Belongs to an O2 SIM I never activated and disgarded!
That should work for you
Cheers
Richard
Thanks for the phone number. O2 also requires one of their IMEI numbers to access this ROM update. Does anyone have one we could use, or even better, would anyone be so kind as to upload this new 2.21 ROM to the XDA server?
Best,
DrBig74
Iwill try and upload the rom,
Bear with me I can only upload at 60KB Sec,
If it does not work PM me and I will put it on a private site for you
Cheers
Richard
I don't use O2 SIM yet.I can download the update
Anybody can upload the update ?
I am uploading the ROM to my own webspace,
It will take me about 10 mins to get it on there (50Mb)
PM me and I will give you the details you need to download it, (I am not publishing the details on here as I have limited bandwidth available), but will make it available to those who need it
Cheers
Richard

Hi there,
When I upgrade my mini s ROM, and then hard-reset the device, what ROM version will be after the hard-reset? the new one or the one that came with the device???
also, is there any risk that the upgrade process will damage my device?? is it possible for me to loose the device forever??
Thanx all
This post may be of some use to you.
