I just upgraded the ROM on my XDA Mini S to v2.21.4.101
First impressions are that is is MUCH faster! I was a bit upset when I got it this week due to the performance. Looks like a few things have changed again like the position of the clock!
Anyway, lets hope it performes activesync over USB properly!
Download the O2 ROM = http://xda.o2.co.uk/xdaMiniSoftware.aspx

What are the versions?

os build?
start->settings->Device Information
ROM version?
ROM date?
Radio version?
Protocol version?
thanks.
My O2 XDA Mini S now reports:
OS 5.1.195 (Build 14847.2.0.0)
ROM version: 2.21.4.1 WWE
ROM date: 3/9/06
Radio version: 02.07.10
Protocol version: 413.1.03
ExtROM version: 2.21.4.101
Hope this helps.
Rich
PS. this is running soooo much faster! and syncing and staying connected every time 8)
Only thing different from the recent Qtek/i-Mate/... ROMs is the Extended ROM.
But it would be nice if somebody could get the cool today-plugin out of the extended O2 ROM
Hi guys,
I will have my XDA mini s next week, and I want to update it instantly.
Unfortunately, I live in Jordan(Asia) and when I attemp to download the update from o2 site, they require me to give them an o2 number, and I dont have this.
can anybody help? can anybody upload the ROM upgrade on this forum please? any ideas... Please help :roll: :?
Thank you all
If you still need an O2 UK number to get the download use this one
+447933636910
Belongs to an O2 SIM I never activated and disgarded!
That should work for you
Cheers
Richard
Thanks for the phone number. O2 also requires one of their IMEI numbers to access this ROM update. Does anyone have one we could use, or even better, would anyone be so kind as to upload this new 2.21 ROM to the XDA server?
Best,
DrBig74
Iwill try and upload the rom,
Bear with me I can only upload at 60KB Sec,
If it does not work PM me and I will put it on a private site for you
Cheers
Richard
I don't use O2 SIM yet.I can download the update
Anybody can upload the update ?
I am uploading the ROM to my own webspace,
It will take me about 10 mins to get it on there (50Mb)
PM me and I will give you the details you need to download it, (I am not publishing the details on here as I have limited bandwidth available), but will make it available to those who need it
Cheers

Hi there,
When I upgrade my mini s ROM, and then hard-reset the device, what ROM version will be after the hard-reset? the new one or the one that came with the device???
also, is there any risk that the upgrade process will damage my device?? is it possible for me to loose the device forever??
Thanx all
This post may be of some use to you.

since phone upgrade i have noticed that gprs is a tad faster. 8)
Does it support Sim Tool Kit
Hi Ali,
Does this upgrade have the sim tool kit?
Thanks in advance :?:
isn't this the same version everyone has been using?
I just have to run the executable file right? I don't need an SD Card writer or anything for this download? just my normal connection and activesync? what if the upgrade screws up? can i reload the old ROM image? and where do i get it!
Thanks a lot!
hi from Riyadh
Hello again
well, what i have notice there are more then one version of WM2003
one of them which i downloaded from http://members.lycos.co.uk/xdarom/ where i couldn't downgrade using the nornal method and i was force to use SD Card to go back to my previous ROM but the other version which i downloaded from this FTP Server 195.64.88.44 xda/xda works pretty good and i was able to downgrade to XDA-Developers Special ROM version 1.2 with no problems and without using SD Card.
thanks again for sharing

Is it possibile to upgrade to wm2003 thru USB cradle ? My current version for Asian XDA is:
ROM version: 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date: 10/11/02
Radio: 4.17
Protocol: 32S54
Has anyone tried to upgrade an asian XDA (EN version) ? Any problems ?
Thanks,
I upgraded my XDA last night via my USB cradle. I had NO problems at all. Took a little longer than normal :?: But other than that it was fine.
Gil
Gil,
did you use Ali file uploaded on his site ? Is your XDA UK or Asian version ? Which nr ?
Thanks,
no service
Can someone help a newbie out here - I installed the WM2003 no problems and then installed to 4.21.00 radio stack
but now my phone get's no service any ideas? Im in Texas on T-mobile

I had the same set upwith yours previously. I upgraded to SER 1.2 and WM 2003 after that. I also upgrade my radio stack to 4.21 from O2 UK. But now, I am back with SER 1.2 and Radio stack 4.21. I wish Icould go back to my old Radio Stack 4.17.
With 4.21 Ilost the "G" and signal strength for GPRS.
I hope my experience helps.
Beeheij, why didn't you keep the 4.17 radio version with WM2003 ? Was it not running properly ?
I think it's always dangerous upgrading the radio module with newer version dedicated to other regions (UK)
Thanks,
brix3,
I want to back to 4.17, but I cannot. Somehow during the process of rolling back I was kicked out.
As for the WM2003, the problem was in the SMS mode. When I picked a phone number, the "+"sign in my contact was not transferred tothe address in the SMS. So each time I wanted to send SMS, I had to correct the phone number.
My Battery Pack was not working. It hung my XDA.
Hope this helps
Has anyone in the US used or done this upgrade? Since it also upgrades the Radio Stack I'm just wondering. If GPRS is getting dropped as stated in other posts it is more that the network drops you or you lose data connection between cells, or the network has a load balance that give placement to voice users over data when bandwidth is needed. Not so much that your radio stack does it.
On the other hand just incase anyone wants to prove me wrong :wink: who in the US has upgraded their radio stack to O2 4.21 and experienced a better performance than AT&T's radio stack (speed stability as staed on their website) :?: This means you probably already had to manually switch the default band 8) first, right? :x
Let me know I love to be wrong :shock: ......I'm only that much smarter than I was yesterday :roll: :lol:
I'm a little confused. I upgraded to XDA v1.2 and my Device Informations are:
ROM Version: 3.17.03

Protocal Version: 324e4
How is it that my radio version is so much higher?

as far as i know XDA v1.2 will not touch your Radio, it will just replace your old CE ROM with the new one which has lots of cool stuff.

Hi all, don't have a Magician myself, but thought you lot might be interested to know that ROM v1.12.00 is available in the UK here:
http://www.buymobilephones.net/romfile_download_s100.ihtml
I've also uploaded the file to the FTP site (into the Uploads/Magician sub directory - filename=MA_DT_WWE_11200_119_11200_Ship.zip).
If anyone who knows how wants to move it to Magician/Shipped_ROMS - feel free!
I've no idea what it fixes or what new features are available, I'll leave it to you to try and maybe someone can then post what the differences are?
Craig.

Everything is fine.. booted up with 1.12 on the splash screen
I cant find the storage folder tho
but gotta go play footy now.. will update if there are any problems soon.
Is it WWE?
Is also a new radio version installed?
regards
mikexy
It is WWE version.
Looks like new radio version:
radio.nbf - 5/31/2005
Not sure I'm going to try it yet, but maybe :twisted:
Please report back on the quality of this rom and if you run into any GPRS issues. There are quite a few of us having GPRS connections issues with the 1.11 ROM and I am hoping that the 1.12 with the new radio.nbf fixes it.
Thanks
-Mashie
please post your feedbacks about this new ROM and thanks in advance
The details are:
Device CE image version: 1.12.00 WWE
ROM date: 5/31/2005
Extended Image version: 1.12.119
Device Radio Version: 1.12.000

Can't you just patch it with mksBigStorager? Or it should be version specific version?
I can confirm it works with mksbigstorager.
It seems pretty zippy so far, I'll let you know the good/bad later.
Great! Thanks for the info!
Someone reported on HoFO that the GPRS reconnection issues are still there with 1.12. :-(
whats new in this release then? no release notes?

Ah,crap.... just finished big storagepatching it.... Let's see, how it will work for me
My RF seems to be fine. BTW, can we just upgrade/downgrade Radio stack without having patch the whole ROM again with big storage? I mean, just run update for radio.nb file
just upgraded my jam and it's a bit faster than before tho i haven't installed all the programs that i use..... sound quality is really good.. and no GPRS problem for me since the GSM compnay fixed their problem here..... and better screen respons
Ext_ROM doesn't have lots of programs just few and the MMS composer is still version 2.0.0.22 and not 2.0.0.23 which comes with the PDA2K......
if anyone wants the ext_rom let me know and i will upload it
cheeeeers and i will post update as i re-install all of my programs back
Hi,

Radio Version 1.10.00

The reason being is that I am tring to establish a connect between my I-mate and my new Navman GPS4420. It is not working and the Navman tech said it could need the lastest ROM 1.7 ish something.
Thank you

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!
This is buried in some other threads, so here you go
(First off, I take no responsibility! Dumped using aWizard tools, and you can find more info in that thread on these forums.)
ROM version: 1.6.7.1 WWE
date 11/28/05
radio 1.13.10
protocol 4.0.13.24
extrom: 1.6.7.101
Here are the links and anyone is welcome to upload it to the FTP...

http://www.richardgoodwin.com/Qtek_9100_1_6_7_ENG_Extended_ROM2.zip
Note that it doesn't contain radio firmware, etc. It is just the OS and ROM2.
n return I ask for your comparison in terms of speed, included apps, stability, etc. versus your current version. Reply to forum....
how do we install the nba?
Here's the thread with aWizard. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386
It's very easy...connect via usb, make sure Activesync is connected, then (going from memory here, but the tool will prompt you anyway )
Enable RAPI
Unlock (if not using a Qtek)
'w' to write the file
cross fingers and wait for phone to reboot
But again, only do it if you're comfortable! I am no Qtek representative
Ouch, i got rom-version 1.3.7.13 ... Is it many new fixes in this one?

extended rom version?
What is the difference betwen the normal and extended rom version?
I unlocked (also CID unlocked) mine SPV M3000 and run now a Qtek 9100 version on it...
Hi Sorry if this is a stupid question,
but I'm assuming that the ROM upgrade - http://www.richardgoodwin.com/Qtek_9100_1_6_7_ENG.zip
will update the OS ONLY (ie WM5) and NOT alter the contents of the Extended ROM??
I ask because I want to keep my T-mobile UK customisations (Found in the extended ROM) as they have my internet settings etc. I dare say one day I'll get around to finding out what they are so I can ditch the T-mobile stuff.
P.S Just in case I have backed up my extended ROM stuff just in case
Thanks in advance
John
Correct, the OS is the OS, the Extended ROM is separate
Anything cool in that Tmobile Ext ROM?
Not really, it seems to customise the look of the PDA - easily altered using Pocket Plus, and it sets the IE homepage and settings. What all the others do is anybodies guess??
Mine has these:--Seems a lot- I wonder what they all do and whether they are really needed??

Hi Mate,
Could you tell us what is your after-upgrading Windows Version is?
Mine is 5.1.70 (build 14406.1.1.1), if your WM5 version differs then there is at least one reason to upgrade my Qtek9100 rom (1.1.7.9). Otherwise it seems that 1.6.7.1 is the same as 1.1.7.1 in terms of OS
Thanx in advance
Sorry if this is a silly question, but can I use this on my O2 XDA mini s?
Will I lose or gain anything over the O2 ROM (that was shipped with the handset)?
The one feature I REALLY want is A2DP so I can use my bluetooth stereo headphones.
Thanks for any advice.

extended rom ?
Hi
I'm new so I might asked stupid questions
I got my PDA for 3 day and thanks to the posts here, I unlocked,
put some other firmware on it etc...
What is not clear for me at the moment is the extended rom issue ?
Is this a sort of addition ?
Can anyone help this newbie ?
Heya rgoodwin,
What was the original source of your ROM? Did you modify it in any way? The ROM that TMO UK offers is version 1.6.2.4, so yours appears a bit more "advanced".
Sorry if this info is posted elsewhere - I even went to your site, rgoodwin, and couldn't find a listing. Nice low carb story, btw!
Can you update the ROM without losing any data on the device?
Hi
Is it just me or is this official?

Guys, their ftp is slow. Let me download it, then I'll upload it onto our ftp here. All of us at the same time will hog what little bandwidth there is.
Guys, the Orange SPV M5000 AKU2 update is coming out in the next few weeks also, as stated in the following links:
http://msmobiles.com/news.php/5007.html
http://www.business.orange.co.uk/se...c=PaDPage&cid=1044130727244&mid=1044129765401
Which probably means that Qtek and o2 will be releasing theirs shortly. I hope A2DP is included!!! I reckon, as usual, the Qtek ROM will be the most stable...
anyone downloaded and installed this rom yet??
no ftp is too slow, because nobody listened and they are all downloading at same time.....I should be done soon though
cool any chance you could upload it to the ftp? and oh if its not to much trouble let us know how you get on
yea i will upload
thanks mate you are a star!

i just have one question are some roms locked ?. or once the device is unlocked is that it ?. i dont want to flash my phone and find its locked again
chears
i-mate are a joke: no ad2p!? What were they thinking!?
Hi Everyone
This version DOES come with AKU2 and it works!
One thing which you need to make sure is that you have it turned on in the Comm Manager (as I spent 20 minutes wondering what was the matter!).
Load up the new Comm Manager and make sure that the bottom-middle icon is turned on for "Microsoft DirectPush".
Regards
JB
