Always on line for xda 1??

Any body knows for xda 1, you can keep checking new mail arrival through GPRS?
I heard people using xda 2 can do that. But is there any chance xda 1 can do the same thing?
Actually, when u do the setting for POP account, it ask u to set how many minutes to check for new messages. But it never work because the GPRS will close automatically.
Thanks very much. :?

Sure it can be done!
Take a look at:
http://www.o2.co.uk/productsservices/xda/romupgrade/0,,170,00.html
BTW the above is one of many!
also where are you located?

I am using the most updated PPC2002 version already. (3.20.06 ROM and 4.21 Radio)
Do u mean I have to upgrade to PPC2003?
I doubt that because they are not very stable for me to use in Hong Kong so far from other guy's comments in this website.
Thanks very much.

Since you're already running the latest upgrade its suppose to work but since it doesn't I would have to say that your always-on settings are at fault. So go to Start, Settings, Connections and make sure that its set to not disconnect.
HTH

Are you sure that it is also for xda1 ?
I can't locate that "not disconnect" setting.
Please clarify.
Thanks so much.

It should say some thing like this:
GPRS connection to remain active once the device enters power save mode.
At least it does on the PPC 2002 latest AT&T ROM and the XDA developers Special Edition ROM v1.2. (which is bases on the O2 3.17.03 ROM).
HTH

That's really strange for my O2 xda!
I only found a setting called GPRS Suspend Mode setting.
It said,
When you are in power-saving mode, do you want to:
- Keep GPRS connection
- End GPRS connection
I clicked on the first one.
Then I close it, and connect to GPRS.
Just for a while, the connection ends by itself.
Any thought?
Thanks a lot again.

Yeap thats the correct setting and the same one I'm speaking of!
I read a lot of bad reports about the 4.21 radio stack so it might be at fault.
Maybe you should think about upgrading to the Qtec radio stack, heard nothing but good reports on that one.
The Qtek 1010 Radio Stack Upgrade can be found at:
http://www.carrierdevices.com.au/downloads.php?region=Asia Pacific
Download Radio Upgrade File : RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG).exe
BTW read the WARNING.
BTW do you have a URL for that newer o2 ROM, I'd like to install it and see if it does the same for me/
HTH

Here it is.
http://www.myxda.com/web/template/SoftwareUpgradeIntroduction.vm
BTW, I am a bit nervous to install the radio file cause I have bad experience that almost kill my phone.
Is it really okay just to install the radio file?

Like I said I've heard nothing but good reports on upgrading to this radio
stack (no failed upgrades have been reported but as with any upgrade there is always a possibility). :wink:
BTW thanks for the link!

Hi Qman,
Have u tried to update that ROM?
Is there the same problem?

Unable to download, it kept asking for a IMEI.
You wouldn't happen to have the direct download link would you?

Oh! I didn't realize that...sorry.
I am still a bit nervous for upgrading (or is it actually downgrading) to the i-mat ROM.
If it is downgrading, I will definitely not try that...

Hi Qman,
I just notice that Yorch.net got the 3.20.06 ROM.
Also they have the 4.00.21 ROM (pre-release T-Mobile version). Is it for the US market only?
Chris

hi; Are you sure that Yorch.net got the 3.20.06 ROM??? Can't find it. I have downgraded my XDA yesterday from the kitchen wm2003 because of bugs to kitchen 2002 but it says 3.17.03 and not the one you mention???!!!

Hey,
That's not from the "kitchen". It's from the "upgrade" just under "kitchen". Check it out again and you will find it.
Anybody knows that 4.00.21 is good for o2 xda?
Chris

hmmm, currently I am using it
so far so good but there is one major BUT for me - most possibly that version makes wipe out my 256MB SD card every up to 48 hours
for me it is a major .... item
regards,
monika

That's terrible. What about the GPRS and phone reception?
To be honest, I won't use it if it will wipe off the sd contents every 2 days.
Have you tried to burn again?

so far GPRS is not working ....
but that is due local GSM provider that has some complicates setup as to make GPRS to work, phone recption is ok ... I am living in area where virtually all GSM phones had reception problems (i.e. majority of nokia phones), although in a city center it is perfect ....
just for you to know ... I have received a link from one of the group members for the most recent update - look there for details :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4556&highlight=4+01+00
regards, monika

Thanks very much for your reply.
But I think that Upgrade exe file is for US only cause that include the radio upgrade as well.
So, are you able to downgrade your 4.00.21 easily?
I am not sure whether its worth to downgrade your device to 3.20.06 to see whether its a real problem with SD card. And to upgrade it to 4.00.21 again to verify it. It may happen only at some occasion as you know electronic device can never guarrentee functioning 100%.
Hope you can fix your device.
Cheers

RSU 4.21 problem: stuck at boot splash

hi,
i have just downloaded the radio stack from O2 v4.21. I have tried to upgrade through active sync 3.71 it upgraded ok, but when i went to restart the XDA it gets stuck on the boot screen. the one that says test not for resale... and at the bottom right hand corner its says A.30.07 and then locks up.
normally before i tried to upgrade it said A.30.07 the underneath it said 4.20...
anybody know what i need to do to correct it?? i have looked through loads of forum posts and now i'am really confused???
Thanks alot
Zetex :?:

a bit of further info my Bootloader on my xda1 is 5.22
I'am also willing to pay for help i recieve to get my xda up and running again, because without it i really i'am stuck. I don't just use it as i gadget i use for everyday work/pleasure...
Thanks alot
Zetex

can anybody help me????

Hi,
No experts or semi-experts seem to be offering any help. I consider myself a fairly experienced novice so I am not sure how useful (or safe) my advice is. Take care! But here are my observations..........
You say the upgrade went OK? Does this mean you got as far as the message Flash Complete! Press OK to restart your device?
If so, this is encouraging as most of the problems I've located on this forum stopped part way through the upgrade (many at 1%).
Did you follow the instructions accompanying the upgrade to the letter? (ie. kill all running programs, switch off phone etc.)
The 4.21 upgrade is for the PW10A1 model not the PW10B1 (check the back of your xda's case to find out). Not sure how you deal with this one if yours is a PW10B1.
Can you enter bootloader mode? (soft reset with the stylus while holding the power button). If so, this is also good news. Someone with more experience than me could probably tell you what to do next. (Possibly flash a new ROM using the SD card method. Although you upgraded the Radio Stack it may have corrupted or upset your Radio Unit/'ROM'. If you decide to do this, I suggest something based on the v3.17 such as the XDA developers special edition ROM ..... you can always upgrade to WM2003 again later.).
Good Luck!
[/b][/u]

cranny,
Thanks alot for the reply m8, I did try what you have suggested by reloading the 3.17 o2 rom via sd card and now it won't even switch on anymore.
not to worry its gone off to the xda repaire center in Norwich today for repair under warranty.
Thanks for the reply anyway m8

Several areas of problems for me.

Questions:
1. Will re-installing my O2 ROM sim-lock my phone? It doesn't sound like it w/ all the ROM installing going on but I have to ask to be sure.
2. I did a hard reset when I couldn't get mms working on my XDA Exec w/ USA T-Mobile (mss working now, though). I now have serious stability issues and apparently have missing files. For example, I have no picture frames (themes?) and I get a pop-up error when I scroll past that option with the camera. Would these issues be solved by running the individual extended rom files?
3. I have installed Microsoft Portrait but I can't get the XDA's camera to work with it. Is there a .dll for the camera somewhere to make this work?
4. I was in one of the non-corporate mode after the hard reset because I didn't know the code. Now I am in Corporate mode but does this undo the 'features' that were installed with the non-corporate mode or do I need to hard reset again?
Thanks,
Tron

Ok, I hate replying to my own post but I can't find this in the threads.
How does one stop the extended rom on the O2 XDA from installing? I read where people here manually install the cabs they want and I would like to do the same. However, the extended rom is installing all on it's own right after I enter the 0605 for Corporate configuration.
Oh, and if anyone can help w/ the first post above...that's be great, too!

You can stop the ExtROM installing by doing a soft reset as soon as you first see the Today screen.

I can't believe I didn't think of that! (Would have been to chicken to try it without someone saying it's "OK" even if I did.) This is why you have 331 posts and I only have 3!

Hi!
Hey Flyboy!
What's this Dopad? I gone through the description of flashing ROM & found to press "Dopad+Reset+Power button".
Well, I came across many WM6 & WM6.1, also read reviews for the same, which is most trusted or you like to use?

lol

sorry about the quality
flyboy

A little more help please, Dear!
Firstly, a bi....g Thanks man!!
for the help rendered & efforts taken for me by making demo YouTube video.
Well, I all set go for my first ROM update. But just the part of precaution, I'v a query!
I gone through many threads & wiki, which helped me like tutorial.
But if suppose the new ROM update gets crash with my Himalaya, is there any way to re-jump to the existing original ROM I do have in device now?
I mean, can I bounce back to original ROM, in case of new ROM update failure?? If yes, please guide me how??
Hey Man, sorry for troubling you again & again!!

1. it will probably not go wrong
if you list all the spec of your computer and the equipment that you have for your himalaya it would give me a clearer idea about upgrading for you.
2.Its ok it keeps me busy! my teacher has gave me 3 htc voxes to fix in the past. anyway.
a little story.
When i got my himalaya in march this year i was chufed at what it could do then i discoverd that the rom was out of date and that was why i couldnt install much. Then i found this place. I read up on some threads on updating and i saw it was possible. So i nervously followed the guide because i found that if anything went wrong the device could be rendered unuseable. But... I went ahead and flashed it and it worked. And the first rom i ever flashed was athers windows mobile 6 ultimate edition. Since then i have not yet found a rom as brilliant as stable as it.
so when upgrading things can go wrong. but dont be reluctant to flash a new rom.
and you would have to do a bit of research if you decided you wanted the original rom back.
btw how old are you?
ONE MORE THING. I WILL LOOK FOR THE ORIGINAL ROM FOR YOU TONIGHT.
flyboy

I would also like an original Himlaya rom backup (O2 XDA II). As soon as I have the backup I will be flashing away!

Whoa!
Ooh! 12 yrs old compu geek ur!!
Well, I'm of 25!!
Thanks for encouragement. Like you, me too love my gadget very much & peruse a hobby of using high profile gadgets. I was not aware of this platform & came across through Googgling.
Long time I'm using O2 XDA II & loves it badly, it's a last gift from one of my friend from Singapore who's no more.
I'v a HP 614c gadget & if succeed with this , I'l like to have some R & E with that too, in fact that's require on that.

Oh, Sorry!!
Hah..ha....haahaha!!

Well man, I got this link (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=233219) relate to O2 XDA II WM 2003 SE ROM, please have a look on the same.
Whats your opinion, can I use this for bounce back to previous version, in case of any problem?

that rom i would recommend flashing with that first.
just to make sure3
dont forget to back up!
good luck
flyboy

Pls suggest!
Hey Flyboy!
Y'day I tried to do the process but I fell to upload Hard SPL (BTW I'm going for C_shekhsr's ROM)
I followed noobs guide, update the USB driver for vista, then went to bootload the device & try to force Hard SPL.
Following all given instructions also its showing connection error (Error 260, 264) & process stops, but in reality everything is well connected & correct.
Well, when Hard SPL program executing, I observe, it also not showing my old version @Upload (second stage of confirmation).
Is there any special process for O2 XDA II hard SPL & on vista os??
I followed all guides well; What do you think may b going wrong?

Hard SPL? whats that? i never had to use it.
regarding error no connection:
go to task manager and make sure something a long the lines of microsoft usb sync or something is installed. and then disallow all the connection settings in windows mobile device center.
oh and if it still doesnt work try it without hard spl because i didnt use it. and it works on 7 and xp.
oh and the rom im using now is WinMoB_6.1_OS_5.2.21109_Build_21109_-_Lite_WWE.
try it! it runs touch flo!
dont hesitate to contact me.
or i could show you better on msn?

Hi!
Hey man!
As I said I'm looking to dumb C-Shekhar OS with following specs:
----------------------------------------------------------------

dated: 09.Jan.2009
OS 5.2.21014 (Build 21014.1.6.0)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, he flaged Hard SPL as compulsory pre requirement.
Well, the OS you have mentioned, is that of Ather? or from which source?
Y'day I tried Asia CE2003 (Upgraded), & that worked.
Well, in Bootloader, the device connectivity is a main issue occurring with me & I'm failing to understand the reason. I mean is this bcs of Vista or else?

sorry for late reply (baned from my computer!)
the rom i wrote is by nokser
just try it without the hardspl thing cause it worked for me.

Hi!!
Hey Flyboy!!
I load the Ather's dark ROM (WM 6.0) & its really nice, I'm enjoying a new look to my gadget.
Well, is it possible to install FM Radio on O2 XDA II? I tried the same from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=479572 but saying not related application after installing cab.
Do you have any clue for same??
Well,before I logout, I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas
& here's hoping for a wonderful ski season in the New Year! A very happy new year 2010, my friend!!!
..Have a blast, Cheers !!!!

Thanks!!! really that cheered me up!
Well all the best wishes to you also my friend!!!!
The FM radio is a good idea but dont think it will work.
Are you staying with that dark rom from ather or you still going for the C_shekhar one?
merry christmas!

Im back, ive decide to ditch the iphone and give the HD2 another chance!
Im with O2 3G/sim
I bought what i thought was an unbranded/unlocked HD2 of ebay but surpirise surprise is was locked to t mobile in the UK! So my day has consisted of trying to get it unlocked which i just have and also changing wap/internet setting so the bloody thing will work.
Problems: -
1 - can i install an O2 ROM so the phone works perfectly with my current O2 sim or am i barking up the wrong tree? I want to get rid of all t mobile UK pre configured/installed settings.
2 - All internet stuff seems badly slow sort of dial up speed?!
3 - Copilot isnt pre installed, any ideas where or how i can pre install it to try it out?
Any help/advice/support i would be grateful for!

Look here, http://www.4shared.com/dir/22189940/b8552fa0/Shipped_Leo_ROMs.html .
Leo 1.43 'RUU_Le2_UK_1.43.206.4_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U _2.04.50.22_2_Ship_WORKING.exe' I assume is the one you want, that's the stock O2 ROM. However, if you look on the HTC website there is also the ROM upgrade from 1.43/1.48 to 1.72. But as you don't have the stock O2 ROM installed Don't install the HTC upgrades before you do so.
It should have all the default O2 bloatware, including the Copilot trial.

HI Kalavere,
Thank you for the rom update, i tried installing it but this messages just comes up any ideas?
Error(294) invalid vender ID
It wont let me proceed with the rom update?

SORTED!!!
Got is sorted thanks again!
Flashed the rom and installed the newest O2 1.72 software.

The CoPilot trial is here http://www.alk.com/htc/uk/. I don't know whether you can trial the program if the evaluation has already been used.

Brilliant stuff. It's just as easy to flash a custom ROM, so give it a go sometime. They are far far better than stock.
