German O2 RUU 3.19.01

Hi,
There is a new rom out.
For german O2 customers is the new rom available on the www.o2online.de
site.
Unfortunately it does not have the wmodem app and the other 3.17.03 extra stuff.
On the first view I did not see any changes to the 3.14.16 ger version before.
Does somebody know what the changes are?
regards,
silver

have not installed it yet.
but did look at the contents:
- 'hz.exe' = homezone. tool that has something to do with monitoring your cell id
- rilgsm.dll now has 'at+creg=2' string in it. probably the RIL_GetCellTowerInfo call is now implemented

Yes, The home zone was always included. but it causes a problem with all rom versions of O2 germany that were available.
I thought the new version does not have this problem but it is still no solved.
regards,
Silver

Looking for ROM & Radio versions for Qtek speed improvem

I have 2 versions of the XDA / Qtek 1010:
* O2 XDA pilot unit with ROM version 3.12.07 and Radio version 4.06
* Qtek1010 commercial unit with ROM version 3.18.04 ENG and Radio version 3.25.01
O2 XDA provides good response time but not the Qtek1010 which is more recent.
I have downloaded official release from O2 site of ROM version and Radio version 4.06 onto my Qtek1010, but it does not improve the performance.
1) How can I download ROM version 3.12.07 and Radio version 4.06 onto my Qtek1010 ?
2) Are there special hidden settings/instructions on XDA Radio version 4.21 or on Qtek1010 Radio version 3.25.01 to improve response time?[/list]

what do you mean by performance ? ... is it the Windows response or signal strength or GPRS speed or ..... what ???
BTW, Qtek ROM 3.18 + RSU 3.25 is the best and the most stable PPC2002 setup ... but depends on which area and operator you are dealing with.

Thanks for your reply.
By response time performance I mean the time it takes to display a new page (example: around 25 secs on Qtek and 14 secs on XDA).
I am in France and I used 2 different Tel providers, it did not make any difference.
Note: there is a mistake in my initial question: I downloaded from O2 site Radio version 4.21 (not 4.06) on my Qtek, and I am looking for how to doawnload 4.06.

Hi ...
Up to my information Qtek R3.25 was made for Asian networks but it works out side as well. The O2 R4.21 is the best for Europe and it works in the Middle East as well. So, it's what is the best fit to your provider.
Also, you may check your GPRS setting with your provider and you can compare the speeds by accessing this page www.texan.net/speed.htm from your XDA.
Good luck ...

hhhmmm page ?
do you mean a new page in a word doc ?
or a internet page as in WWW?
if it's word then it sounds like an os issue
if it's www then it's a ISP / RSU issue most likely
if it's WWW then i'm sure you could find some pages or programs to measure the speed of your GPRS

XDA2 ROM Version?

Latest available on O2 website is 1.60.00WWE is it not?
So what is 1.66.00WWE ???? Came with some XDAs that we received a couple of months ago.
We have "issues" with a 3rd party application and we have 1 unit that is 1.60 & seems problem free, so in the process of elimination..
Can you backwards flash the ROM?
Any issues with 1.66 if known?

Oh & ext ROM is 1.66.181 which is in contravention of website's "latest" version...

Hi Dave
Newer versions of the XDAII contain a different LCD display to the earlier versions. Basically the only difference between 1.60 and 1.66 is that 1.66 contains a display driver for the new LCD panel (plus one or two other small and "non-essential" items like a Cleartype tuner) and as such O2 are not releasing it for public consumption.
The next O2 release will be 1.72 which is due to be released soon and will contain drivers for both types of LCD panel.

Interesting... I currently have the 1.60.00WWE ROM on my XDA 2 and O2 informed me that the version currently available for download is 1.60.50WWE, which incorporates WM2003 Service Pack 1, plus a Java update. They could not tell me what Service Pack 1 added/fixed and also said that if I installed their later version, my phone could become locked again... Now I see that 1.72 is on the way, I think I will wait. Any idea on timing??

Hi cbrow51
All i've been told is 'not long'... tho knowing o2 that doesn't really mean much!
Sorry!

Hi Rudegar
Thanks for the reply I also have similar original versions of the O2 Australia Firmware and am wanting to upgrade.
I use the O2 Bluetooth head set which I would also like to keep using (I've noticed a few people having issues with some upgrade versions)
Please could someone send me a link where I can download the most stable/updated ROM for my Australian XDA II.
Sorry Rudegar for asking for links but I am so confused when trying to search for this, I never know what one to use and there are so many around.
I would also like to (IF POSSIBLE) get an upgrade ROM that is automated like O2 original ROM's, one EXE that extracts and does it all for you... no commands or lots of text to read though and try and work out how to do it all....
MANY THANKS!!!!!
Hope someone can help me out!

Is this also for the Australian Version of XDA II?

i've never heard of a special australian rom

Cool, thanks for the fast reply!
Ya I think Australia uses the Asian Rom?? but not 100% about that :-(
I though you needed your countrys rom so that you can select what telco's settings to use?
I am with Telstra as my phone provider. would you mind having a quick look and seeing if you can select Telstra if you have this rom already installed on your phone :-D
Many thanks for your efforts!

O2 has 1.11.170 available for downlod

Hi All,
Just to let you all know that O2 have the upgraded ROM (ver 1.11.170)with BB and radio 1.04 available now on their website.

See my Hmmmmm post above. I didn't spot this thread before I posted.

Hi!
I just went to O2 site but can not to see the new ROM for OIIi. Only v1.11.69

Snap. O2 IIi Downloads page.
If you know different, linkage please.

O2 have withdrawn the 170 rom as it had issues!!! (like the others don't!!) That is why it is not there any more. :lol:

on O2 site i found just 1.11.169

It was withdrawn because it was crap. Blackberry didn't work.

i just downloaded v 1.11.169 , hope this is the latest

I downloaded it one month and a half ago and i don't see the difference between v.1.11.169 and v 1.11.170 except Backberry v.2.0. If yours is good,I think you enjoy it.That's the best way.

just a quick question, does anyone ever risked or ever brick their PDA in trying to upgrade the PDA using the ROM ver 171 ?
is it safe to do upgrade ROM even via the website ?
I'm worried if it would broke down my PDA. :-(
here's what I've found in the website:
The latest XDA IIi System Software is available for you to download. New and changed in this version of software, v1.11.171 are:
* Updated BlackBerry Connect
* Improved Bluetooth Connectivity
Please click here to continue
This software is for Xda IIi in UK and Ireland.
and I'm living in AUstralia.
is it worth it ?

Another question - on next page O2 asks for IMEI and phone number. Somehow I can find IMEI on my device but how can I obtain valid UK O2 tel. No??? It was bought on ebay... So is there any links where i can download this latest ROM ver. without tel number? Thanks.

I downloaded the rom with my imei and a romanian cell phone number from the official site. Didn't updated it yet...

There is now a v 1.11.171 available at the O2 website.

my emei doesn't work, can anyone give me a working link to the 171?
thank you.
