Hi all,
After doing a look around on O2, Orange and T-Mobiles websites in the UK I got the following version information:
CE ROM:
O2: 1.30.107
Orange: 1.30.174
T-Mobile: 1.30.232
Radio:
O2: 1.09
Orange: 1.13
T-Mobile: 1.10.03
I know that Radio version is subjective but I assume that 1.13 would have some bug fixes over 1.09?
Also is 1.30.232 actually newer/better than 1.30.107 or again is this subjective?
Are there newer versions than this around?
I am looking to use the latest AKU2 with the best Radio ROM and my own custom Ext-ROM.
Thanks in advance!!!

Before you do anything,m read the wiki and the threads on the newer ROMs - it is not as simple as you think, particularly with the radio ROM.
Hiya,
I don't particularly want Crossbow (don't see the point, the Universal is slow enough without that), or particularly want AKU3, doesn't really offer anything I want or need, want I'm really after is just a nice stable AKU2 installation.
Will give Radio 1.14.10 a shot along with the newest AKU2 I can find on the operators websites.
Anyone got any ideas on getting a backup should anything go wrong? ActiveSync's backup option of course has been removed in WM5 (*GREAT* idea MS)
Thanks

Radio 1.14.10 seems to be from Vodafone in Italy, anyone know if this is actually compatible with O2 in the UK?

I found AKU 3 much better to use (and faster) than AKU2

The 1.14.1 ROM on the FTP site works fine with O2UK. If you are using Jwright's latest ROM, I would use 1.13.

Hi Ali,
Does this upgrade have the sim tool kit?
Thanks in advance :?:

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,
did you use Ali file uploaded on his site ? Is your XDA UK or Asian version ? Which nr ?
Thanks,

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
ROM Date: 05/15/03
Radio Version: 6.18.00
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.

Can anyone pls upload the EXT Rom cab files from this upgrade.
also this new rom, since the OS and Radio version are 1.11, would i be wrong to assume that they are exactly the same as the QTEK OS and Radio?
If they are then we would only need the ext rom cab files from this iMate 1.11 to upgrade?

Well I couldnt wait so I upgraded.. everything in the EXT ROM is the same as the QTEK 1.11 except
1 - the usual KSE FAX v2.09,
2 - Version_WWE_111132.cab
3 - Imatev1.00.1.0.cab
All other MMS, BT Patch, etc.. are exactly the same as the QTEK EXT ROM.
so to summarise, I wouldnt bother upgrading to this ROM if you already have the QTEK 1.11, unless you want the KSE fax or the imate customisation.
The curiousity has just wasted an hour of my work time.. :lol:
now Im back to hexediting the rom for big storage..

Can I use any of those roms, i´m not so good att this and I dont want to kill my s100....
I hope this is the correct forum.
I have access forthcoming 8125 and was wondering if a rom dump was needed and what tool I should use to do it. I have one that I used for the Apache but I wasn't sure if there was a better tool to copy the everything and if it was needed.
does anyone know a release date for the 8125? I read on some other forum that its delayed till feb 1st. Also is it really 802.11b? the k-jam is 802.11g/b why would they downgrad it?
And yes i would be interested in the rom because i'm gonna get the k-jam till the 8125 is released so i'd like to have the cingular provided rom.
I think it's worth trying. I did it and I have no experience at all .
Grab the aWizard tools in the forum and try dumping it and the extended ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386
I'm curious the final specs on it, because I heard it was going to be improved over the Qtek 9100/K-Jam (better CPU, camera...?) Any chance to post those as well?
Also, can you post the current ROM informatoin from Settings...System...Device Information?
(BTW aWizard only dumps the OS ROM and Extended ROM, so if you have a custom tool that pulls also Radio firmware, etc., it might be better)
if you do end up dumping the rom, do you think it will work well with the k-jam?
I have no idea if it will work on other phones. I am not an expert on what to do with the ROM. I was just wondering if someone would be interested and hoping for links to the tools. I will pull the rom tonight when I get home.
once again i'm interested, because i'm getting the k-jam in a couple of days and then i'm going back to texas and would like the cingular rom for compatibility issues.
also i read somewhere that there are some hardware differences between the k-jam and the cingular 8125 so i dont know if it will work. but i'll give it a try.
did you ever end up dumping the rom? I got my kjam yesterday and going back to texas in 2 days and i'd like to have that rom on my device.
Have to ROM. Who can I send it to?

so the Cingular ROM is 1.6.11.1 with a 11/1/05 date and the QTEK ROM 1.6.7.1 has a 11/28/05 date...seems strange that a higher ROM would have an older date. oh well...time to flash AGAIN! :lol:

Yep. I dumped it to SD and also via the wixard that is posted here.
My only big complaint is no Java, and I've been completely unsuccessful in fixing it. What we need is someone to extract the Java from one of the other BASE loads (like the Qtek or Cingular one) - that should be possible but I don't know how its done.
By virtue of my 2 x XDAII's failing for whatever reasons (abuse, long-life, etc.), I had to shift to one of my XDAII's (BA) with base OS:
=======================================
WM2003 SE
Version 4.21.1088 (Build 15045.2.6.0)
Processor: Intel(R) PXA263
Memory: 125.77 MB
ROM v.: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Radio: 1.12.00
Protocol: 1337.42
ExtROM v: 1.40.923 WWE
Model No.: PH20B
=================================
I have found that this phone is WAY SLOWER than the XDAII - it's really incredibly slow! (And I had my XDAII with less RAM available!)
I have had problems connecting in Mumbai (India) with Vodafone (this happens with other units (EDGE modem/XDAII) too, but this is *extreme*!
I have to shut off the radio (put into flight mode) then back on, in order to connect to GPRS, or it simply will not connect!
I have tried flashing the ROM for the radio to 1.15, but I have to edit the file on the unit, else I get the error - it's really very time-consuming!
I'm afraid that all my time that I put into this unit will go to waste if I do not have a stable unit that I can rely on....
Any feedback on this?
Thanks!
Try the T-Mobile's rom or PDA2K's rom in Blue Angel Upgrading section.
The O2 rom bugs me too much.
Also install O2 Asia upgrade (I guess u r running a non asian one thats why BA isnt showing compatibility with ur network. Try upgrading to WM5/6 and see if u have luck on GSM/GPRS since majority of asian networks phail with BA WM5/6/6.1/6.5

well first of all if you want less bugs do not install the OEM crapware (the extrom software) you may even resize the extrom partition to 128 k to use the space as storage
http://alevri.atspace.com/ - updated Shipped roms list and mirrors which i will keep online
My advice is to flash the latest t-mobile 1.42 rom delete radio and extrom update files and flash rom only

Why can't you? Keep in mind that you can only do this only in 2003. So, from what I have read in your other posts you are either in 6.1 or in 6.5 (going back to 6.1). You have to use the Repart_doc and the ExtRom Unlocker tools in order to do so.
Aside from everything, I have been using xplode's version of 6.5 and I am pretty happy with it (both stability and usability)-wise.
If you are absolutely disgusted by it, you should try sun_dream's 20578. Best 6.1 that I have had...
Hope this helps.
