Please can anyone tell me how to upgrade the radio rom, to the imate version, on my xda2i.I have already upgraded to the latest version roms from O2 website, but i want to update the radio rom only to a more stable version.I am a newby so please provide a step by step guide. :?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=25283&highlight=
Many thanks for the response,however I probably did not explain properly.Is it possible to upgrade just the radio section not the complete rom upgrade,and how :!:
You could try downloading the update but deleting the .nbf files you don't want to update leaving just the RADIO_.nbf.
Don't know if it would work but you never know.

You may use any ROM Updgrade, you may even want to cook your own ROM, but please do not think of performing a radio stack upgrade if your present radio is working well and giving you a trouble free service.
Hi guys,
I 'm in same situation but with higher versions, and can hardly wait to get a new 2003 ROM.
I can't just play with my XDA as I use it all the time for work and it's pretty stable so far. I just also can't tell that the ROM is 'totally' separate from the RUU in WM2003.
So the question is: is there any one here who has gone through a 2003 upgrade for Qtek 1010 to tell us his thoughts after the upgrade ?
I read a lot about the stability of 4.00.16 ENG, but all been written was for O2 R4.21 or T-Mobile R6.xx. Did any one in this region (Mid East) with R 3.2x went into this upgrade ? and what is the current status ?
Thanx all ....
Latest ...
I tried upgrading to 4.00.11 ENG from the kitchen ... no matter how many trys it just restarts and gives the same error message "Can't open USB/com port ..." ...
Do I miss anything ??
more update ...
Tried to cook the new ROM as .nb1 file and used Xdatools from the kitchen to flash my device .... same result :? :evil:
Is it possible that there is a ROM protection on my XDA ??? :shock:

Hi Biso007,
Look at the IDIOTS GUIDE at:
http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3171
and follow the instructions thoroughly one by one and you can't go wrong, it did work for me, I was in the same situation.
Samohile - Thanks. It is good advice to not mess with the radio if you can help it.
My only problem is that my device periodically shuts off. Then pressing the power button soft boots it. I cant tell for sure but it seems that this happens after an incoming or missed call. It seems that other friends using ROM 3.18.04 and Radio 3.25.01 (like our friend biso007 here) seem to have very stable systems.
I can try upgrading the ROM only and see what happens but the information at www.carrierdevices.com seems to imply that both ought to be upgraded at the same time. I notice it is an Australian site. Does that matter? Also, the version of the radio upgrade is a bit confusing, at least from its name. (Radio Upgrade File : RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG).exe] ). I wonder what this RSUv1.15 translates into since the name of the exe file for the ROM is nicely descriptive of the version (3.18.04).
Any advice in this would be very welcome..
Well i am using WM2003 4.00.11 and its working fine for me no problem i cooked in the kitchen you just need to read arround this great forum for a whgile on topics such as upgrades and ROM to know exactly what you are dealing with and then you will able to upgrade smoothly.
:wink:
Hi ARZLEB
I read lots and lots about upgrade lessons but none of them worked for me .... I got an advice to use SD card with bootloader as it's the only working way. Now I wonder why the EXE method was created!!
I see that u got the 4.00.11 working. Did u upgrade it using EXE or SD card. Any help would be so appreciated ... thnx
Well i used the EXE methode the file i cooked in the Kitchen but i didnt change the version i left as 3 at the bottom of the page it works fine i upgraded from 3.XX to 4.XX then i downgraded from 4.00.11 to 4.00.05 then upgraded again all using EXE format so far working great.
i will be honest with you i know about the SD methode very well but never tried it so u have to make more search on this issue.
If you need anything more plz message me anytime and i will be more then whilling to help you step by step...

Faisal sorry for very late reply.
I have flashed my Qtek (bought in Abu Dhabi) with several versions of roms cooked in kitchens (Jeff's and Stefans's), but I have finally settled with ATT release wm2003 Siemens SX56 upgrade. It comes with most of the bugs fixed (except multiple reset bug) and is quite stable. I almost never have to reset it. You can flash the ROM only by SD card method though. You can try it. It's always a good idea to flash using SD card method. USB method using ProgramA is not very safe. I guess the network in Pakistan is compatible with the one in the UAE, so you can safely use it, if you don't mess up with the Radio Stack. My Radio is 3.23.01 and I have no problems with that.
I just bought it last night, But I have read all this forum about upgrading the Rom and everything, Since I'm a new member. What upgrade should I do and do I have to upgrade my MDA Compact?
Thank you in advance..
well you should get the 1.11 rom if you dont have it now. and if you do just do the kksbigstarage 27 mb hack found on this forum. I did the origional anansky big storage hack and I love it. but that one has the qteck rom. I have an Imate Jam, and I really like the qteck rom. but if you want to keep your origional rom then do the kks.
oh and if you didnt know what those rom upgrades do they clear out your extended rom allowing you to use it for writable flash storage.
Curiousity
chakra, currently my
ROM version 1.06.00 WWE
Radio version 1.05.00
ExtROM version 1.06.110 WWE
So u have any idea what all this mean? am I in a latest update? Pls guide me..
Btw is there any drawback on my MDA ?
Thank you.. :lol:
hartunnoo,
You ROM version 1.06.00. I would recommend upgrading to 1.11.00 WWE (World Wide English). If you upgrade, your EXT ROM and RADIO will be updated too.
Use the 'search' facility in this forum to get all the details on upgrading your ROM. If you need further info just ask. Someone here will always be available to help you. If you're not experienced with this stuff, and have any doubts about something ask first ;-)

MDA Compact UK????
Did you get your MDA compact in the UK? because all your ROM versions are already higher than mine and t-mobile told me they'd email me if any new versions came out? So if you've got uk t-mobile with higher ROM versions im gona *****slap those gits and get them to send me new versions.
I want all the cab files same to 1.11 officially ROM..
I am the new comer. Too complicated for me to upgrade for bigstorage.
Please advise where to download and proceed this. Thank you ,all.
Hi folks, I am new to all of this, so If I have some absurd questions, forgive me. But I need help.
I have t-mobile MDA I and I would like to update it's ROM to WM2003, but i did not found any update from my (base) version (Rom v3.16.48 ENG Radio v3.19.00) to wm2003 :? . Where can I find this update, or which update can I use to update my OS on the device?
I would be grateful If you could help me, so pleas I need some answer.
Sure it is Version 3.16.48?
If it is really this Version, could you be so kind and make a backup fo the ROM?
Instructions could be found here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_FlashSD2
and
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_FlashXDATool
Afterwards please contact me again, to clarify how we can handle it, that i can get the ROM/Backup....
You can get a new ROM from here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ROMVersions
or cook you own here:
http://www.romkitchen.de
You should be able to install every available ROM.
So these are no updates, cause such thing is not available, but are fresh ROMs like a new installation of a PC. ;-)
So keep in mind, that all data on the device will be lost.
Stefan
it is Version 3.16.48
Yes it is Version 3.16.48 and i will backup it soon as I can and I will contact you. Thx for help.

Protocol Version: 4.1.13.30

Operating system: windows mobile 5.0 - OS 5.1.422
Can someone please help me with steps to upgrade it to windows mobile 6/6.1?
I checked on the dopod official site and the upgrade is not available for c800.
So will i have to unlock CID? am basically confused.....can someone help with the steps please?
Thanks in advance.
what is your SPL? If it is over 4, you should HardSPL your phone and flash one of our custom roms, or use the USPL to do it.
Welcome to xda-devs. make sure you do all your research before trying anything.
Try the HTC site
Try the HTC site ...
--The HTC site does not have a official ROM for the Asian Dopod c800.
what is your SPL? If it is over 4, you should HardSPL your phone and flash one of our custom roms, or use the USPL to do it.
-- my SPL is 1.09.0001
it looks like you are stuck with the rom that you have. Try using aserg's method. it's one of our older flashing methods.
search for it in our forums. tip for you- ALWAYS have RUU ready.
Can u pls tell me what the aeserg's method is? and what do u mean by having the RUU always ready? and which RUU are u talking about? I don't think there is a RUU for the DOPOD C800. If there is then pls let me know where it is.
thanks.
--The HTC site does not have a official ROM for the Asian Dopod c800.
I think they should be the same, but only try if you're really desperate to get WM6. I put the htc wm6 (in english) on my htc branded version bought in China with a chinese version of wm5.
czhang- you can buy HTC devices in china. but you can also buy dopod devices. Even if dopod is essentially HTC in china. the RUUs do not work together.
Rangnekarrahul: aserg's method is a way that we were able to flash the first roms made for the herald, before we had USPL and HardSPL. I'm pretty sure you don't have to have a 4+ SPL to do it, but the lack of RUU means that if you mess up, your device is dead.
for more info on aserg's method, look at some of our oldest roms, like touch-it 1 or 2.
do u really think its worth the effort? also can u tell me the actual method(aserg's) I tried finding in the forums but am not really very sure. Some talked about extracting the .nbh file and stuff.....don't know how to do it...if writing in this forum is a pain then u can mail me the procedure at [email protected] .
thanks
I had successfully upgraded my dopod c800 following instructions. Please see my earlier post

I had successfully upgraded my dopod c800 following instructions. Please see my earlier post
---- buddy I will definitely try this. Can you pls let me know where can I find the Official RUU -HTC_P4350_WWE_4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.e xe
?
Thanks again for the help
Thanks for the help guys..... I have upgraded my C800 successfully.....works great now.....
