I need to disable "Advanced Network Functionality" in Start\settings\connections[tab]\USB to PC
Enable advanced network functionality
But the O2 XDA Mini S does not have this icon/application, does anyone know if it's a registry hack?
this was an enhancement on the newer roms. chances are you may be on something older than 2.26 (if on t-mobile us). if you need the function, go to your carriers website and flash to the latest version.

I've just checked the O2 site for the latest firmware for the O2 XDA Mini S which is 2.21.4.101 which was the firmware rom the unit came with from new, it doesn't look if O2 have launched a new rom for this unit!
which sums up O2 in the UK and other airtime providers!
hmm...that's a problem...can you flash to a us rom? the t-mobile 2.26 us rom has that feature as part of it.
these articles state that aku 2.2 and higher had this feature added:

T-Mobile Germany has released a new ROM version for their MDA. It brings the version number from currenty 3.13.xx to 3.15.12, dated 06/12/02.
Major changes are the integration of EUU3 and the "GPRS always online" feature already known from the latest XDA ROMs from o2.
Unfortunately the MMS client software has not yet been built into the ROM.
The SMS bug is still not fixes, so it's still needed to install the patch if you want to see the names of SMS senders.
"CSD line type" now has 4 instead of 2 entries: v32, v34, v110 and v120.
All in all I would say that this update adds less improvements than the latest XDA update did to the XDAs. On the other hand the version number is higher...
But now here comes the problem: Unfortunately T-Mobile has not yet released this version for download. I received it from someone who had it on an MDA that he just got back from repair. The radio version was also updated to version 3.17 (currently the latest version offered for download by T-Mobile germany is 3.07). I would believe that these updates will be available for download shorty, but currently they aren't yet. OK, radio update 3.17 is not that much interesting...
Dear All O2 mini fans in HK,
Present, O2 Official release ROM 1.1.1 for HK o2 mini user, go there download the New ROM.
Cheers
Oh yes, I upgraded too. Using original cheap O2 bluetooth headset sounded very clear and no power off effect. But when I used my Jabra 250V, still cracking.
Is it English version, Simplified Chinese version, or Traditional Chinese version?

Does anyone have any idea what is different in this ROM? I mean, does GPRS finally work, does the camera finally take good pictures? My guess is NO.

It all seems to work fine on my mini, although I have had one minor problem, for which I have posted a message here.

No exact details are available as to what is changed but users are reporting improvements in:

- Hold down the wireless button toggles between silent/vibrate mode and ringer-on mode.
- Signal acquiring issue resolved.

- Reduced sync times
- Enhanced Communications Manager
- "Lock/Unlock Device" item added to Today screen
- Changes to Signal indicator on top bar
- New Network Connection Settings added
Plus is reportedly upgrades the machine to AKU2.3.
sweet... but don't i have to do some crazy thing to my MDA to beable to get this ROM on there? I heard updating the ROM is hard
I am running this ROM, and I can tell you it is not too hard to do. Start by downloading lokiwiz from here.
Specific directions are included in that thread, but it is as simple as copying the enable RAPI cab to your device and running it, and then connecting the usb cable to the computer and running lokiwiz. do both the Super CID and the SIM unlock now (this may not be nessesary if your device is a t-mobile MDA, but it is best to just do it now, just in case...)
Once you are unlocked, it is as simple as downloading the ROM, connecting the USB and doubble clicking the installer... Follow the prompts, and you have a new ROM
I personally am running the 2.26 T-mobile ROM, and I really like it... If you haven't upgraded from the stock rom, I would reccomend giving it a try.
I hope this helps... And If you have any questions please let me or someone else know... It is better to ask a stupid question than fry your wizard...
EDIT--- The link to Lokiwiz I posted is to an upgraded version that I don't know how to use, it appears it has been upgraded for the newer ROMS, but dosen't work the same as the older version... If you have an MDA I would try the upgrade without it.... SORRY

It's an official rom no need to unlock anything - just download it and follow the instructions . . . .
OK
so my stupid question:
1. Does this update change the radio ROM, IPL and SPL?

Don't know if you can adjust you topic title but there are a few threads already running in the "Wizard Upgrading" section.
You're talking about the T-Mobile 2.26 version. That's not realy new. So if anybody wan't some answers just check the "Wizard Upgrading" section. 'Cause that's where it should be
Ah damn! I just upgraded to 2.24, is it worth doing this uprgrade?
If I installed all my programs to my Memory Card will they still be on the program list or will I have to load them all up again?
CHEERS!
Ok, maybe a silly question but...
Can I put a US carrier's ROM on my UK phone? Like the radio stack is compatible and all that?

Thanks Starcruiser1229, yeah I upgraded my rom ... although i still can't get EDGE to work (and im supposably in an EDGE enabled town) but that is a whole different subject.
anyway, thanks.
anyone no longer need nullkb?
hey - where did you find the site http://www.t-mobileapps.com ?
does TMobile publicize this site at all? (not that it seems to show much)

In previous stock TMO ROM, landscape mode with keyboard open popped up the virtual on-screen keyboard. I used NullKB to keep that from happening.
Now, with the new ROM released today, the virtual on-screen keyboard doesn't pop up in landscape mode.
Just checking with everyone else.

Yep, I've already did with xelencin's 2.24 T-Mobile rom from this site. One catch though there is a slight difference in the keyboard layout between the U.S. and U.K. but you can fix that by a reg. hack.
Use Total Commander and add the hack :
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 0809 hex
I have a O2 XDA Mini S using the U.S. T- Mobile rom. I haven't upgraded to the new rom yet.

The link I believe is part of T-Mobile's parent company. If you login to your T-Mobile account and select MDA as your phone, then click the link "support for MDA" at the top of the screen it will take you to another screen which has the link "System Upgrade"
Kind of ironic, I was just browsing around before posting about where to find upgraded ROMs!
I'm running a UK Tmobile MDA Vario, but I'm in Canada. Just to be sure, if I download this ROM and then do the keyboard registry hack, I should be good right? I'm still on ROM version 1.6.2.4 WWE
Thanks!

You should be, I'm in the U.S. and won the UK device from www.4WinMobile.com . It was running software branded by the company O2, I flashed it with a U.S. T-Mobile Rom and haven't had any problems. The only real difference in all of the HTC Wizard devices is the Version of WM5 Rom your running and the Extended Rom put out by the company selling the device. (I am in no way an expert this is my understanding from what I have read,)
I hope to have time to upgrade to the new rom this weekend.
HTC & Softbank here in Japan have just released an updated ROM for the X01HT. They claim that current un-updated X01HTs will not be able to use the internet connection without updating after April 1st. This is due to them updating their networks.
The new rom is called RUU_X01HT_1.33.761.4_1.14.00.10.exe and can be downloaded from HTC Japan's website. Its 55MB and they say it will take 30 min to update.
This probably means that all you guys who have updated their ROMs here in Japan will have to change their network connection settings.
I hope they included some fixes, namely bluetooth A2DP, into this ROM, but I guess I will have to see what changes after I get around to updating.
Thankfully noted and downloaded...but how will this affect me changing my X01ht to english? It will be japanese again, right?
Yea, it defenetly will send you back to the Japanese version. My guess, from reading their PDFs and info on their site, is that it is a radio and password update. There is no other mention of any other update.
We have 5 months until the contents of that ROM become required. Hopefully within that time, the Awsome people that frequent this forum will be able decipher the contents and kindly tell us what needs to be changed for the people who have converted to English.
Hi, I am planning to buy a X01HT from HK and use it in US. And I am using Tmobile carrier. Just want to verify:
1. Can I upgrade X01HT to some other rom ie. dopod, imate or HTC.. and still function the same since the hardware specification is the same.
2. Does that mean these April 1st rom upgrade is only affecting users that using their phone in Japan only or it will affect us in United States as well?
Thanks

i don't know how it's sold in hk but if it is the same as the original, you need to downgrade the bootloader to 1.04 before flashing any other roms. read this thread that talks about "HOWTO: change a Softbank X01HT from Japanese to English".

the short answer is yes. this only affects people subscribing to the flat-rate data plan of softbank in japan. this rom is only in japanese and you won't need it in the us anyways.
Do we have to install the entire upgrade or is it possible to extract the update for the radio stack. 55MB is rather large...

why do you want just the radio stack? seems the radio version is 1.14.00.10 and is the same as the old one. the rom is changed from 1.33.761.3 to 1.33.761.4.
I was under the impression it was updating the radio as well...
anyway, since my WMDC is not working right now, i cannot install the rom.
i also using it in tokyo ..
but will it make the sim-lock again .. ??
did anybody have updated .. ??
Hello,
Can you please tell me what's the last official ROM for the G3 Wizard?
I tried lots of ROMs, WM5, WM6, official, not official, the most stable one was 2.26 from T-Mobile.
Is there any other official version better than this one? T-mobile, Qtek, I-Mate, I don't care.
Thanks

There seems to be a maintenance release out from T-Mobile here. I haven't installed it, so I can't comment.
Can you please tell me more about that release?
I don't have a valid T-Mobile number to see what's in there. Maybe you can PM me your phone number?
Thanks
When I looked at it further, it looks just like a different path to the 2.26 version. It confused me because it is on the same page as the Dash WM6 upgrade.
No, it is not on the same page! T-Mobile has a 'default' page where you choose your device, then they redirect you from there to the correct software.
In their opinion it might be more 'user friendly' but I think it is confusing: you select your device in first place at the t-mobile site, then they redirect you to the firmware download section and let you select your device again ... strange!
so, after all, is there any other version than 2.26 ? something newer?

Not in the US. The only one newer than that is a german AKU3.3 ROM from T-Mobile Germany. But I asume you wouldn't like your phone in german ... T-Mobile UK has version 2.21 and from other manufacturers (rebadgers) like I-Mate they are even older: 2.17 and lower.

That's too bad !!!
And I assume they won't release any newer ROM right?
At least they did not announce anything - but HTC is always good for a surprise! Even though the T-Mobile MDA is discontinued by T-Mobile there is still a big chance that HTC will release a WM6 version sooner or later (if enough customers are going to bother them!!! )
Hell that would be nice, but i cant see them doing it otherwise they have to release more updates when WM6 starts getting AKU updates every other month.

Not really!
As you can see on all that 'public' and 'official' releases: You never get A L L released AKU versions of WM for a device - only a few 'selected' one's.

Could you point me to this ROM?
I'm not a T-Mobile customer and even if I would be, I wouldn't like me phone to be branded. Does installing this rom make my phone pink? That's all I fear
I am not sure to which rom in my post you're reffering to! No, it will not make your phone pink! If you ever want it unbranded (well, almost unbranded) make a hard reset and when done with the screen alignment and skipping the password setup just soft reset the device before the CUSTOM ROM gets a chance to install itself automatically!
To be more clear: you will shortly see the today screen and then a message pops up telling you that customization will start in 3 seconds - this is where you should perform the reset ...
Downside:
You will have to manually configure your device for MMS and GPRS.
