you still can use O2 rom , or Qtek or Dopod rom , it work fine with T-Mobile services.
I would keep using the O2 ROM over anybody else's ... I've been using my XDA exec since early october '05 here in California and it's great ... specially if it's connected with an exchange server .... the only drawback would be you need to manually configure the GPRS/3G settings on the device ... well if you have this kind of device then you should configure that easily ...
can't wait for the XDA Trion or maybe get the Qtek 8500 too ... he he he
so you can use the o2 rom, what sim card/carrier are you using, i thought the o2 roms locked the device to o2 sims only?
From what I understand O2s are factory unlocked. I'm using an o2 Exec on O2s 1.13 ROM with Cingular.
I had tried all the ROMs available, from T-Mobile, O2, Dopod, etc... To me, the QTEK ROM offers more stability, less customizations, good signal with radio 1.09.00, and supports both AKU2 and A2DP.
hello, like the title says, iv just ordered my xda exec and i should have it in a couple of days, i was wondering can i use my exec to make and recieve skype calls? can i send and recieve faxes thru it on the o2 netweork and also if i flash jwrights rom to it, will it remove all of the crappy o2 software??
thankyou for your help
1. Yes, you can make/receive skype calls(provided you have fast internet connection)
2. Regarding fax, I m not on O2 network and I dont use mine for faxes(let somebody else answer your query)
3. O2 'crappy' software wont be installed if you do a soft-reset before the '3 sec customisation' screen appears.
note: you can do away with the 'crappy' customisation for ever by flashing some other ms.nbf file. Also, you have the option to unlock the extended rom and change the files over there(you can also 'cook' your own extended rom)
once iv downloaded the skype software, is it exxpensive to use? on my o2 contract i have a data bolt-on which gives me 5mb per month, will using skype use up my data pretty quick?
iv been reading about hacks and tweaks? should i experiment with these? or just install a new rom? i have very limited knowledge on this sort of stuff, i did upgrade the rom on my xda11i to pugs rom, but didnt really understand what it did! just wanted to try it out! what have most of you guys done with your universals?
if anyone on here is on the O2 network id love to know what you've done to your exec's and also if they can send/recieve faxes
thankyou
Hi again!
For skype, you need fast internet connection. I m, unfortunately, unaware of the fact whether 3G,UMTS is avaliable in UK. You can use wifi too for skype(this is what I do)
AFA new ROMs are concerned, most of them come pre-tweaked with all enhancements(and some useful utilities too).
As you must be knowing, the 'pug's ROM which you had installed for HTC alpine(O2 IIi), it is basically the O2 ROM without O2 'crappy' apps. So, as I had said before, everything depends on what you have in extended ROM. If you flash with some other extended ROM file(these files are known as "ms.nbf" files) or you unlock+unhide it with extended rom unlocker tool, your device wont be customised after each hard reset
would anyone be able to give me a little breakdown on what unlocking the extended rom does? i have read a bit about it, but im not quite sure what this achieves!?
and yes we do have 3g over here, so in theory ill be able to make skype calls, how much data does it use if i use it over 3g??
Have got a o2 xda exec which I love (once I had got rid of all of the o2 rubbish software from it) I have installed Blackberry connect from the o2 website and the software is very hit and miss , it doesnt always work and when I try to go into my messages it sometimes wont do it.
Has anyone had any problems with this ???
