Tmobile ROM dated 08/12/2005

Hi
Has anyone installed this version of the ROM available here http://www.iris-global.com/t_mobile_download/download_manager_mda_vario.html
what does it fix cosmetic or software issues ??? 802.11g maybe???
Would be interested to know before i load it up..
Baz

Why is it on such a weird site? Iris-global?
I'm downloading it to check if it's save, but I'm having second thoughts about trying it. Dunno wanna f*ck up my wizard. :roll:

there is nothing wrong, its the official t-mobile download site!
jim

just completed the update, no noticable differences except it is damn fast!!!! Would be interested to know what the official differences are though.

It's just the version that shipped with the UK devices.

Same experience, no noticable difference but it's alot faster then the dutch shiped ROM. And much more stable too.
I'm liking it so far.
Edit: Found a new program called streaming video, not 100% sure if i had this on my Vario when I bought it. :?

It is on mine, Rom dated 09/29/05.
If I can find links to this new rom from the official uk tmobile homepage then I will be installing it today.

Can anyone say if the 802.11G problem (or lack of support) is addressed in this update?
Which rom would you people recommend - this T-Mobile ROM or the I-Mate K-Jam Rom? any opinions?

Hmm I'm still not convinced this is an OK download, can anyone walk me through getting to the site from http://www.t-mobile.com/ or http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/

Looks legit to me

Although the rom version is updated to 1.6.2.4. (WWE), the rom date is from 11/15/05.
But it's working like a charm.

Hi everyone i'm really new to the wizard but still wanna have my device up to date. I'v had the Vario for a week now and my ROM version is: 1.3.2.2 ENU and the ROM date is 9/29/05. I have downloaded this new ROM but should i update my VArio with it or not. I cant really tell if i need to or not. Sorry for bein a noob just too new to all this. Thanx to all replies.

It's entirely up to you. If you're current Rom is working well, upgrading isn't really necesarry. I was having alot of problems (constant lockups, slow, etc) with the dutch Rom I got when I bought it. Thats why I removed the CID lock to install an alternative Rom.
So far there arent any Roms out with major updates for increased hardware performance, these should come out late jan/begin feb and I read T-Mobile won't bring one out till late march.
Been trying the WWE T-Mobile rom since last night, and it's still working great. Haven't had time to install my applications yet, but it's allready alot faster and more stable then the Q-Tek (Dutch and WWE), i-mate and O2 Rom's i've tried.

thanx for the reply. so is the rom that i've downloaded newer than the one that i hvae. Beacuse a few posts above it says that the Rom is the same as the ones in UK Vario's. So just wanted to make sure i wasnt updating my vario with the same Rom as i downloaded. if that makes sense.

you will need to soft reset your device. To install this ROM on your device you will need to use the lokiwiz program, then you can install the file to your phone.
Hope that helps
Jim

Is mine even newer?
I wonder if going back to the TMO version would help any? My QTEK came with this:
ROM 1.6.7.1 WWE
ROM Date: 11/28/05
Radio Version: 01.13.0
Protocol 4.6.13.24
ExtROM: 1.6.7.101
It seems a bit poky, and battery life seems horrible

i-mate 1.1.9.3 much faster than T-mobile 1.6.7.1 ??

I have just switched roms ,out of curiosity rather than anything else from as stated in the title
Now , I let it install fully , installed all the software back on it , and it ABSOLUTELY FLIES !
What gives ? this rom is ancient evidently - so how come it is so much better than the T-mobile one
not that I'm complaining , mind

Interesting.. I had the tmobile ROM as well and upgraded to the Qtek 9100. I guess anything is better than the Tmobile ROM.
Where did you download the Imate ROM from?

from the FTP here !
seems pretty stable too , no freeze ups at all yet

New O2 ROM v2.21.4.101

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?
start->settings->about
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
Richard

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.

New MDA Vario Owner question ?

Hi peeps,
I have just got a T-mobile Vario off ebay, wanted to know where I can get the latest offical t-mobile rom. I do know they removed a certain rom with the push email update. Anyone have the offical one be for that:
my rom ver: 1.6.2.4 WWE
rom date: 11/15/05
radio: 01.12.10
protocol: 4.0.13.23
From details above am I running avery old version, I use to use a Dell axim X30 624mhz. So anything that will speed this little baby up will be cool.
Thanks peeps.

Here's T-Mobile's latest effort with regards to the rom...
http://t-mobile.iris-global.com/download_manager_mda_vario.html
I only got my Vario last week direct from T-Mobile (ordered on the final day of their 25% discount on FlexT and FlexT + WnW) but it's still running the same rom versions as they one you got from eBay. Anyway, I've not updated mine yet so I can't comment on the Push Email thing.

Thanks for that mate, any1 installed this and notice any difference.

I decided to give this rom a go last night and just before the application sends the rom to the Vario it tells you what version you currently have and what version it will install. That was when I found out it is still only 1.6.2.4 - 15/11 (15th Nov) so basically it is NOT newer than the version I already have on my phone.
I guess the clue was in the filename all along...
RUU_Prodigy_1060204_105_11210_TMO_UK_Ship.exe
Just thought I'd let you know so that you don't waste your time flashing to it and finding out it's what you've already got too

before u do anything is a good ideato unlock your phone,then you can install any rom you want.

hello guys,pleasssse help me

i have from today htc hd2 on contract from o2,and after reading about this phone i was find out i have all old softwares,i was trying update on htc web site but this link dont like me after when i was writing my serial number.
At the moment i have OS.Vers:5.2.21864(21864.5.0.81), Manila vers: 2.5.19202525.0 and my ROM Version is !!! : 1.43.206.4 (70315)WWE ,well to be honest with you guys im not sure what to do with that?i was upgrade from that popular iphone3gs,they don't do it this for the users buuuu
Thanks for any help,would be great if i will know what i can update on my phone
if that is important i running windows 7 home premium 32bit

what version were you trying to upgrade to?

If you only just got it today, try it for a bit first, i got an o2 one two weeks ago, no problems at all. Dont go rushing to update if you dont have to till you need to.

The O2 HD2 also have a branded ROM, so you wont be able to download from HTC unless O2 permit. Even if you get a hold of the ROM it will still fail unless you HSPL (or other method).
As samsamuel said. I've also not had the problems that others have written about. That's probably the reason O2 haven't issued an upgrade.
Leave it be and enjoy
