Hi All, I have just aquired a second hand XDA 2 with a USA Rom.
ROM Ver- 1.03.00 USA
ROM Date 09/24/03
Radio Ver 1.05.12
Protocol Ver 1337.12
I am based in the UK.
Please can anyone tell me what this means.
Is this the same as an English rom?
If not what are the differences?
I have unlocked the device and a T-mob phone card works ok.
Thanks in advance Grez
yes unlocked it should work just fine but likely the gprs and mms settings would be preset to the us operator
but you could change those
it's triband so it's 900/1800/1900 so like nokida or what ever it should work everywhere
USA Rom
Thanks for that Rudegar, that's more or less what I thought.

Hello,
I have purchased just last week T-mobile pocket PC in the US, however now I am back at my home (Eastern Europe) where we use GSM (Alcatel)
The following is rom and radio version:
Rom version: 3.14.40 ENG
ROM date: 11/26/02
Radio Version: 6.18
Protocol version: 324e4
My question is what do I need to unlock this to work with my GSM company. When I paid for this ($625) I paid a phone withouth service activation.
Regards,
Bucky
Hy.
Why don't you try this question in the unlocking-section?
Why don't you read the other tasks in this section?
To unlock your T-Mobile pocket PC you need a serial cable to connect your PC with your PDA and the XDA-Manipulator-software from www.xda-developers.com
An other problem that exists will be the different GSM frequencies. As you have in USA 1900MHz you'll have in europe 900/1800Mhz. But i'm not sure if this is really so. You have to take a look at your provider (Alcatel)
Regards
Stefan
Stefan, thank you very much for your prompt reply.
However, I have been reading that the unlocked versions of T-mobile
had a Radio Version 3* or 4*, and the RADIO VERISION on my T-mobile is 6.18, thus I am not sure if this software will work out or not.
Please reply as soon as possible if you know the answer to this one.
Hey Bucky.
Most people hav Radio VErsion 3* oder 4* becuase this are european Radio Versions.
The US VErsions have othe numbers like your 6* .....
Like the posting of a XDA Developer the manipulater should work with all available Radio VErsions.
Just try it......
I see. However when I read the xda manipulator, the developers say that they have tried this only on radio version 4.06 and 4.10
Quote: " We've tested this on Radio version 4.06 and 4.10. If you dare, please let us know if you find it to work on other radio versions".
I didn't find any message that someone tried with Radio version 6.18
Do you know anyone that has tried this on US versions of T-mobile?
We have reports of succesful unlocking on US versions as well. XDAmanipulator will work with any radio version.

Hey just to add I have been one of them. You have pretty much all the same settings as mine. Just follow the instruction on the manipulators site and it will work fine. You will be done in seconds.
Can someone tell the frequency of T-Mobile Rom Version 4.00.10 ENG, , Radio Version: 6.24.00? I'm planning to flash the new ROM and Radio 6.24 to my Singapore XDA (GSM900/GSM1800 Dual-Band). I don't know if it works.
Hello All
I have looked through all the forums and even google to look for a rom Version 4.00.01 but to no avail . I am trying to get my SX56 picking up the south african networks.
Finally can anyone tell me what the GSM ROM should be for SA I do not plan to upgrade but want to make sure it will work !!
Your help as usual much appreciated.
4.00.11 as available from the ROMkitchen should work fine.
Greetings from SA. Now, you can use the 4.00.11 ROM at Jeff's kitcken which works fine in SA. I am using it currently.
I never touched the GSM ROM on my qtek. Details are
Rom Version: 4.00.11 ENG
ROM Date: 06/23/03
Radio Version : 3.23.01 Original
Protocol Version: 32S54 Original
I downloaded from Jeff's kitchen.
Should work fine if you stick to this.

Hi Everyone
I have a QTEK 1010, with ROM v 3.14.06 Eng, ROM Date 10/01/02, Radio Version T313, Protocol version 32S54.
To what version can I upgrade that will work in SA, and where can I get it?

Radio version: 3.25.01

i have a middle east gsm roaming chip, which worked all over europe, but in canada it doesnt pick the local fido network. i believe my qtek is dual band not supporting the 1900mhz, how can i make it work for me ? could you please advise the steps ?
2nd question is:
my qtek is microsoft version 3.0.12039 (build 1178) does it need to be upgraded ? if yes with what software pls.
thank you in advance.
Guy
there is no way to make PW10A device to use 1900 ... but it should work for 900 if your network supports 900/1900
im trying to roam on fido , does fido use 900 ?
thanks

Not very difficult to find....
Stefan
Not dificult to find?? where do i find it??? i have been checking around and can't find anything.. maybe it because my english is not that good.. !!
The sx56 cannot operate on the 850 band as far as I know, the only version I have seen are version A or B, A works on 900/1800 and B works on 900/1900.
