GPRS Problem After Upgrade

Dear Sir,
My Name Ahmed Kadry, I'm Chief Technical Officer for GoodNews4me, I did upgrade to my 32MB O2 through the web site http://www.myxda.com "RUU_CEv31417wwe_O2-Asia_C1204.exe " and "RSU(GPRS_416_ENG_O2).exe", and after doing the upgrade I'm facing problems with GPRS connection and the telephone as well, The problem is when I connect through GPRS for the first time it works but after disconnecting from the GPRS and try to reconnect again it fails plus if any one tries to call me after disconnecting, my mobile become out of service. It only works if I switched my phone off and then on again, I checked with Vodafone our network operator here in Cairo Egypt, the technical people said it is O2 Problem.
I have tried to use another O2 without being upgraded it works fine, it will be highly appreciated if you could advise on the subject, or how can I go back to my original ROM without upgrade for both files
My current O2 Info is:
IMEI: 350312010540248
ROM version: 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date: 10/11/02
Radio: 4.16
Protocol: 32S54

Mmmm.
I've had this as well. I'd be keen to find out a work around.
Cheers!
Simon.

Me too
Me and two of my friends are facing the exact same problem with GPRS connection after the upgrade, couldn't figure out a solution till now.
Thanks for sharing :shock:

hi all,
i think the only solution for this problem is to downgrade your RUU to 3.14.13, i faced the same problem before with asian upgrade !
after downgrade every thing is fine even battery life became better
best regards

The soultion is there
The solution is to uogarde to 4.17 it is avilable now on the following sit
www.myxda.com. It works perfect

May you send me the RUU and RSU file via Email? Or give me an other address to download it.
It's because my XDA have a IMEI that isn't allowed to download.... :-(
You can use my email: [email protected]

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 ?

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?

i must admit this version of ppc2003 is the dogs danglys compared to the old ozone version

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.

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.

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.

Qtek S200 issues

Hello guys,
I was looking for a solution for my problems with my Qtek S200 and Google pointed me to this forum. Found lots of useful info here, however couldn't solve any of the problems I have. Hopefully some of you can help me.
1. no matter what I do, the device wouldn't sync through the USB cable, it will only sync through IR (I'm using ActiveSync 4.2, same problem with 4.1 before I updated)
2. wouldn't beam files through Bluetooth. No problems with receiving files though.
3. I've tried to update the ROM, however all I got was "Invalid vendor ID". I've tried Lockiwiz to unlock the S200 before trying to update the ROM, however it came up with an error message aswell, so it turns out to be impossible to update the ROM either. I've tried registering my device on Qtek's support website, but it wouldn't take my IMEI number.
More info on the S200:
ROM version: 2.9.7.24 WWE
ROM date: 2/9/06
Radio version: 02.07.20
Protocol version: 413.1.03
ExtROM version: 2.9.7.106
Model No: PM300
I would appreciate any opinions and suggestions on how I can fix these problems. 10x :!:

stephen

Thanx s2tephen, that was really the problem! I went through Microsoft's instructions, however I had to exit the firewall to make ActiveSync work.
Anyway, 1 down, 2 left!
