Works With MDAII?
Does anyone know what would happen if I try to download this update with BES to MDAII?
There is a newer ROM version 1.72187 on the O2 Source site. a copy of which can be found on Here I believe it has the blackberry software removed and allows GPRS whilst on a call
Can I put this rom on an i-mate (i-mate 1.72 rom)? Any potential problems like device error or freezing?
Thanks in advance.

To re-phrase, will this ROM upgrade that contains Blackberry software work with the T-Mobile MDA II?
chix, you have to change some settings to the ROM prior to upgrade... and you have to set the black berry settings after upgrade

Hobbit, the rom that comes with the blackberry client is for general consumers, if you can get the appropriate APN enabled on your SIM and are able to register with o2email.co.uk then , aside from any possible additional charges, then I see no reason why it won't work.
There's always the problem of getting the right APN on your sim tho...

Speak to O2 Customer Retentions Team (CRT) they are the only people that can change you to a BB acocunt at the moment. After that you will pay £15 pm for a 5Mb bundle (Still unsure if this includes all GPRS surfing as I was told this was the case when I took out the tariff, but then have since had conflicting reports).
It works very well, with no real hit on battery power.
See the thread on black configuration on this site for more details.
Will this ROM 1.72.181 work with O2 bought in Asia
Dear all,
My machine is bought in Singapore and the latest ROM update 1.60 was also supplied for Asia as well. Will there be any problem with upgrade for UK O2 customers?
Thanks.

Blackberry from o2 for the XDAIIi (2i)

Hi,
I used to use an XDA II and found the Blackberry email service very useful. I recently upgraded my handset to an XDA IIi (2i) and was surprised that the Blackberry service wasnt available on it.
Anyone know when it will be available?
Steve
Blackberry on XDAII
Hi Steve,
I am having problem with my blackberry connection using XDAII. It keep dropping off. Do you have any idea why is that so?
Also, in my outlook email, it create a new email called 'System' which is I think it is the email that link to my company blackberry enterprice server. But, the 'New' option at the button is disable. Do you know why?

O2 XDAIIi Blackberry Connect ROM update

Does anyone have any idea when we may be able to use Blackberry connect on the IIi. I bought this particular model because of the performance benefits and with the knowledge that in 'Spring' O2 would release a ROM for blackberry connect. Well spring has come and gone and in typical fashion, UK service providers continue to let down their customers with empty promised of further rom updates. If any O2 person reads this forum, all I'm asking for is some information about the release date. My O2 corporate account manager told me yesterday that O2 have no immediate plans for a ROM update so whats going on? If you're saying your going to release an update and then miss the date, please have the curtesy yo let your customers know. :x
How funny! I was just about to ask a simillar question.
I've been (trying to) using an XDA2 with a BES4 server & the BB update. It is not good & flaky. At the moment it won't stay working for very long. I've tried several XDA2's & none better than others.
I was going to try an XD2i & wanted to come on here to ask experiences.
I was under the impression that the BB client currently out worked as is on the XDA2i ??
It's not included on the O2 ROM, though if you know of a separate client I can install - let me know...
There *used* to be one on the O2.co.uk site under upgrades. It was a 250K file that you ran & installed itself onto the 1.72 ROM.
Its not on the website now
I was hoping I'd d/loaded & saved it but I can't find it at the moment. It was an .exe
Anyone help?

That ROM is meant for XDAII.
I am disappointed as well that O2 did not materialize their promise to release Blackberry for XDAIIi. I have made the switch from XDAII (blackberry on 1.72) to XDAIIi and suffered without Blackberry.
I know that ROM is meant for XDA2 but there was (at some point) a file that you could run that installed BB onto it without running a full ROM update.
Now the added file here from the Extended ROM adds BB functionality to an XDA2. I'm guessing that this is what that d/load was. Anyone want to test it on an 2i ?
I was brave enough to try. The software installs successfully but thats all. It doesn't appear to connect with the desktop client and the desktop client is telling me that the software is not installed on the XDA. Hum-ho!

You can install both the desktop config and blackberry client on your XDAIIi but RIM won't connect for you. There seems to be a check for authorised version.
In the past, I have tried on different ROM version on XDAII e.g. WM2003SE 2.06 but failed. It worked only after I change my XDAII to official UK O2 ver 1.72. Therefore I concluded that unless the ROM you use is official ROM version meant for blackberry, all other version will fail.
I'm confused, some people here seem to be talking about BES, others I think maybe talking about internet mail which works differently.
What versions are everyone trying to connect to, I might be able to help??

There *IS* a client for IIs and IIi, but there are problems with ActiveSync that are holding back it's release (RIM/Microsoft problem).
What do you want? software with a bug in it that will cause you to complain even more?
:roll:
I have been told it is coming out 17th Oct from O2.
Encouraging, the 17th Oct is exactly the same date that o2 have given me on Wednesday, I was told that the o2 site would be updated and the new ROM would be available and includes BB Connect...
These updates used to be available from the developer site prior to release, where has the developer site disappeared to, I can no longer find this any more
Lets wait and see....

Hi Southern Man
Looks like we are nearly there then! :wink: Can you tell me if the version you have been trialing has the "delivered" and "read" functionality similar to the RIM pagers?

Im not 100% sure this is what you guys are looking for.. although when you register an account on the o2 site, it then showsup the option to download a thingy called 'email configurator' which is what I use to get back my GPRS settings & whatnot.
It seems to provide a few settings that are lost during a hard reset & I think o2 connect is in there too.
