T-Mobile has released the much anticipated update to the Wing. The update seems different from the one provided through HTC though so heres the link. http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/. happy updating!
Who is going to be the first to try it?
I'm using the radio from it.
is it WM6.1?
nope ...not 6.1 but with all the t mobile crap running you get 18m and if you turn voice command off 20m....looks like they fixed the memory leak to........ better but to late....
rom version:4.26.531.1wwe
rom date :04/22/08
radio :03.21.90
Wait, why exactly are you guys hesitant to download this? I'm assuming cause you're using your own roms, right? I still have the stock tmobile rom and everything, so i'm gonna download it.
the file
can someone post the file to download? internrt explorer monile wont let me get to it.
any 1 know if I use this update with my wing with the stock rom but with a 6mb pagepool will it damage my phone???will I lost all my data???like game or apps???
I downloaded it and had to backup all my ****, so yeah..
its a rom update people .... just like flashing a rom from here ... the rom works fine even has a newer radio than the ones here.... they did fix most of the issues us wing users had .......but like i said BETTER BUT TO TO LATE
P.S this rom is just like open touch 5.2 original but with a newer radio you can even change the page pool to 6 or 4 ... it comes set to 8

you need to go to the website enter youe IME to get it,,,,,, i used Internet Explorer worked fine
Ok Well My first impression on this is..its about time they have an official update. Ive been told this was going to be released months ago from t mobile themselves. but anyway it does solve most of the problems including the memory leak. the im application still wont close after u exit though but i really dont use it. but the rom itself is pretty good it would be alot better though it if was windows mobile 6.1 but i recently talked to a t mobile representative and they told me they should be getting the 6.1 version soon so keep your fingers crossed.
can you please put the radio here...........thanx
I believe the radio is already posted on another thread.
Edit:
Here it is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393988&page=3
The only other change from the original stock seems to be the office mobile update.
So far the memory leak seems to be gone.
It is set for an 8M Page Pool. I changed mine back to 6, the offset is obviously different, so the current instructions at modaco need some tweaking.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393988&page=3 heres the link to the radio!
I'm obviously a new Wing user, so explain the memory leak problem to me please?
For an updated ROM this isn't bad for anybody who uses the stock ROM, however for anyone who uses a custom ROM, this update isn't at all worth the download.
Like stated before, it's a little too late for update to be at all impressive.
How do you change the page pool?
the memory leak problem was caused by windows live through the phone and u would start with about 10 mb of ram then it will decrease overtime to maybe 4 and thats bad for the phone cause itll be very slow

Just keep refreshing or continuing. It said the same thing when I put my number in and I kept hitting enter until it let me through.
Hi Guys!
Just thought I'd give you a heads up over on this section of the board that the latest GENERIC_UK R2A firmware that a LOT of people have been waiting for is NOW AVAILABLE at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475482
Have at it guys! We've been waiting ages for this baby!
And please thank PavelX1 and his anonymous friend for this!
could you maybe also give us a heads up if the generic_NL r2 comes out? I know alot of people are waiting for that aswell!
Thanx anyway to both you and pavel (and friend)

it's also in that thread
All available ROMS are also listed in the XPERIA ROM LIBRARY too. Some of them already have FTP mirrors
You should take a look
Happy flashing
so is UK_Generic R2A also available through SEUS??
what are the improvements in this new rom you guys? i'm hesitant to flash bc i'm too lazy to backup all my junk... unless of course this rom has some pretty sweet improvements. judging by the other r2a roms though, there are only minor bug fixes and slight speed improvement... if it's worth it though, you guys let me know
tnx for the heads up. gona use seus to update later.
can somebody just give me a heads up .. I heard that there is new firmware so I ran the SE update software but it says that I already have the latest version.. ?
did something go wrong or whats happening? .. I m a uk user
thanks

EDITED: As of JAN 31 2009, these ROMS (UK, FR, SPAIN) ARE NOT "officialy released", thus SEUS WILL NOT UPDATE
will restoring from spb backup after flashing to this new rom be o.k.? or will i have to manually install everything again? i'm asking because of the system files being backed-up as well, i dont want to overwrite anything from the new rom. thanks
Thanks!
Yeah! Been waiting for this too.
am trying to update my rom with seus but seus is displaying "the software in your phone is up-to-date" and theres no option to "continue anyway"..
weird...
Cos it is not officially released by SE yet.
^o ok then. maybe the service centers can help. or ill just update another time
New FW generic uk is crap
I have just made the flash and played around for 30 minutes... its all crap! It is slower now, no real improvements that I could find. Besides those updates of radio, browser (still NO flash support!), etc.
Nothing of value to me. The camera still sucks big time, still NO zoom for 3MP and the quality still bad.
Again, I could not find any real improvement and/or feature enhancement. Too bad, waited and waited... just to be disappointed again by SE. Perhaps its time after all to move on to a different brand.
michaelthemage I updated to the new r2a rom too, and after like 2 hrs i was about too flash back my old rom, but then i tried to soft reset, and it worked a little bit better, then using it for a couple of days, the performance increased and became stable, i'm most satisfied with the media panel that now feels much quicker, i can now browse my images as fast as i want, the system became overall faster and snappier, but it's really weird that the performance increased gradually,
So if I were you i'd give it 2 days before flashing back !
P.S i wanted to know if the now released uk rom will be the same as the one officialy released by SE or if there is any chance SE could improve it till the official release date ???
im a n00b
hey
m really excited about the new rom. but i had a few question and as u can see my post count. im new to this world and a bit of a noob. so i would be greatfull if u take time to reply my idiot question.
1. does TouchFlo3D work with the new rom.
2. i hear that some people flash without doing HardSPL. is that safe
3. the image file i downloaded is named GENERIC_UK.image . do i rename THIS file to Kovsimg.nbh or some other .nbh file.
thank you for ur time
m using generic uk rom at the moment

your no idiot, just as you stated: a noob
1. yes
2. yes, because its official rom. hard-spl is needed to unlock so you can flash custom roms or perhaps stock roms with other languages.
3. rename it to ruu_signed.nbh or Kovsimg.nbh if you do from sd-card
Just did the update, SD card method worked fine, it lasted only 10 minutes. Unfortunately I have a 210 MB sprite backup file, so I needed to delete some custom files and choose not to restore some unnecessary ones before the restore. If you are using Sprite Backup too, be sure to choose Level 2 as the restore option (Level 1 did not work fully, unfortunately).
Restoring now...
Someone cooking R2A UK ROM already?
I was gonna switch to the iphone before this rom, but now......
Some improvements i have noticed:
1: Boot time is much faster.
2: iGo08 now takes about 10 seconds to load up instead of over 30!
3: Infact pretty much all programs load much faster than the previous rom.
4. PanelSwitching is faster.
5: Phone signal is much better and more consistant (im on 3UK)
6. General Speed improvements all round.
Not fixed/worse:
1. On the sony ericsson panel i still cant get weather updates on my city/town (Doncaster UK) even though its a city i can select.
2. Media Panel now does not detect photos in my storage card stored in folder my documents/mypictures. Now previously taken pictures have to be stored in my pictures in the storage card root directory.
Overall a very good update, im impressed, looks like i have an iphone to sell!
Hiya guys,
Have been reading up about flashing my touch HD for the last week now, and am pretty ready to flash my Orange HTC. I will most likely go down the USPL method.. but my question is trying to find a 1.19.61.1 WWE Orange original Rom in case I need to go back?
In the wiki it has a rar file for it, but it does not seem to llok official or tested? Does anyone know how I can either back mine up? and possibly post it here? or is anyone in the process of getting a RUU file for Orange 1.19 soon?
Thanks
that file on the wiki is the signed nbh file
it has to be used with the custumRUU thing
ive not tested so i cant tell you for sure
This would be useful for me as well as thinking about flashing mine
I'd find it useful too, although I've always flashed new ROMs even if I didn't have a way back to a stock ROM
did a search again today and it seems like people did try the one in the wiki.. so am gonna try flashing today!

If you use the one in the wiki you will be fine. I've tried and tested this.
flashed to dutty v2 for now, thought I would wait til the bugs are ironed out for the latest one.. But anyone got all the settings for Orange? I can not get onto Orangeworld anymore as it does not think I have an Orange phone.. have searched and found a few cabs but they did not seem to work.. if anyone has the internet connection settings that would be great..

Have you tried Rabdo's Orangeworld fix ????? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316763
Same problem here, flashed from orange 1.19 to Davideuk V-2 Topaz and am now denied access to orangeworld. Tried the 1.5 settings and fix from Rabdo linked to above but made no difference. In HD Tweak there is a section to select stock HD id, Orange HD id or another (I forget which). This didn't work either
ended up calling them up and getting all the settings. told them to addd touchHD settings to the web though so hopefully they will do this. If i get a mo, will write settings down here.. thanks for finding the rabdo cab, will try it next time I flash!
pratishk: are you now using a non-stock rom and able to visit orangeworld? If so please post the settings
::edit:: gah it was me being an idiot all along! www.orangeworld.co.uk doesn't work, cos the address is http://orangeworld.co.uk sorry for wasting anyone/everyones time

Hello All i Have Updated to R3AA010(from here) Like to tell u and answer all ur question u will ask ill try.But till now from what i found is the following:
- The keys where u type the password to unlock ur phone change the color to brighter,and got a bit faster when u start up ur phone.
- when u press X butten it and flip ur scren to go landscap mode the panels in the R1A & R2A used to stop for less than a sec or so doesnt turn clean but in the R3A u flip the screan with in 0.5sec or less the panels rotate with no stops so clean...but didnt solve the idea of message sent...
- one of the great thing i find fixed is the sms texting! i used to write when i had the R1A and R2A the text doesnt apper directly only after a while it appers what i wrote at the same time even if it was update new while in the R3A this is sloved which is a good thing for those who write fast on the X1s Keybord...
- the Comm Manager as how it chaged from R1A to R2A it also change in R3A the font size & the speed!
- enter ur File Explorer go to windows in the R1A&R2A it takes time but it is solved in R3A its fast count till 4 it opens n u can work normaly...
- the media panel!!!all ask about its performenc!first time u turn it on it is so slow till it updates all the files video and surfing in it is faster in a way for me didnt find much diffrence..(but no radio and not the new media panel sad)
- Touch Quality Improved
ill add what u ask and ill add what i find new
using, R3AA010 Generic_uk
ROM version 1.05.931.10
ROM Date: 04/23/09
Radio version: 1.14.25.55
Protocol V.: 52.65.25.34U (dont knw what is this for)
ExtPkg V.: 1.0.11851.61265 (dont knw what is this for)
i have a question if i make backup by spbBackup then upgrade to R3A then restore the backup again it will be R3A or restore to R2A and are all programs restore well ?
it depands on what r u backing up, if ur backing up the softwear R2A then u will go back to it, but if ur backing up the files, contacts, documents,& personal stuff... they will return as they where & u will have the R3A normaly...i keep my things on the pc which i find better 4me to keep in on my harddisk...
i make a full backup with programs
since u r useing SPB Backup i search a bit u have lots of options it will give u when u download the upgrade ROM there is customize restore u will restore the things u want to be restored ur contacts sms ur programs and all that with out going back to the old ROM n it seems that the softwear will knw that u have upgreaded ur ROM so it will give u lots of options!!!!!
thanks
but i heard that R3A has a lot of problem
Will till now i had no problems with it its just a bug fix nothing more people wanted more and sony ericsson didnt give it made every1 down i had it for 4days n im fine with it atlest it is better than R1A & R2A... propzzzzzz
me,
I installed and now I am in trouble, my second password from the sim card is not showing anymore, the X panel are not working, I installed the active, and the R3a, and, I can't close down the phone, I also have some kind of flickerings with the screen....
Sorry, and, of course no good backup anymore.....
Also, when I uninstalled, made a soft reset, and touch the X for pannel, I received a message telling me, no more Panels Manager...? then I reinstalled the R3A, and now, kaput....
the best thing is when u update is to remove all ur passcodes because lots of time they dont work after an update or a hared rest!
about ur panels instaling the panel manager which is given alon is diffrent completly from the one that comes with the R3A...
so as what u did reinstalling is the good idea or downgread to R2A till the R3A on seus or get a frish copy of the R3A..
hello mates.

Anyone knows when will R3AA out officially on SEUS? I hear somebody say it will be out in June. Let's see!!!
Hy ....
Im confused about R3 update ..... , its official update ??
If not , Should I install a fresh R2A and then update to R3A ?
Its official if its on SEUS (SE Update Service).
It has been officially released in some markets only -eg in Germany members have been offered, and many have flashed to, the updated ROM (R3A) via SEUS.
I'm in the UK and SEUS is still telling me I already have the most up to date version (R2A) ...so I wait like you
kkarnaout thanks for your wonderful help.
I would like to install the R3A on my phone too. Can u tell me where did u find the GENERIC UK version for download.
Also questions for u:
1) Does S2U2 work on R3?
2) Does Point UI work on R3?
3) has there been improvement on network coverage?
4) Is the phone any louder? I mean for the ring tones.
5) Has it hanged even once after u have the R3. If yes when was it?

I'm not sure about S2U2, but I have pointui work on my R3 UK ROM. not sure about the network coverage, but the video playback is wonderful (used to have stuttering in the youtube playback, but it's smooth in the R3 ROM)
I dont' notice any much louder on the phone, but I do think the phone is already loud by itself, alot of time it's the hand that's blocking the speaker that makes the phone sound softer than it's actually do.

i've no idea (i want to find out too XDD dunno wht have changed)as this is an unlocked version, and my streak is bought unlocked so i only have 318 ver on it apperently it's a bit better than the 318 ver as some bolted apps are gone... i've never tried 319 as its an o2 locked ver if i'm not wrong
ps this is a 322 ver which is 11-EU build for hong kong unlocked retail streak
At .least it removes the "daggling notification bar" bug.
is english a language in it? can it be used in the states?
It started in traditional Chinese when flashed, but you can change the language immediately along the initial setup process.

Sorry i'm on 318
and actually My Streak is from at&t and I unlocked it with the code then I flash the O2 rom to my device
Hesitate to upgrade .. looking forward to 2.3 but no hope right?
Anyone Please upload stock recovery to flash the new firmware !!
I didn't have one
I flashed with the attached recovery. I like this rom, seems a little smoother than 318 thus far.
It installs in Chinese but you just need to touch the bottom right corner when it boots to change to English.
My Streak is the White Best Buy version, unlocked.
Right, it little bit smoother than 318.
And Google pinyin chinese input method is back!
CPU idle speed is 384Mhz thats mean more power juice. lol

Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
so the radio and everything else works ok for US ATT?
thinking of flashing this evening if the answer is yes.
how about with europian unlocked one ??
I just loaded the 322 package. I have to go through and make my changes.. but wifi and data work fine on it.
gotta update my framework-res.apk and services.odex
titanium backup restore
load armani font
exchange accounts..
and then should be back in business. Will let everyone know how it goes, I have been running 318 without issue for about 3 weeks.
Interested to see the build number for the att release coming out soon.
I run mine on the Telstra network (850) with no problems. Running LCD density 240,with no FCs as yet. I have ORD though so I imagine I'll go back to Steve's ROM soon... it's good to have a break from FCs for now though.
Not the biggest fan of the new keyboard because of the Chinese but that's no issue because I use the Gingerbread keyboard.
What is the best way to update to this? I tried just updating the package and as a zip file but neither works.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
I wonder if it fixes the FC (sometimes) when hang up a call....
So my impressions so far...
I was able to edit the services.odex for theming.
I AM UNABLE to theme the framework-res.apk without borking the 322 OS. Tried a few different ways. Got the kitchen to work, but all apps would FC on me.
Once the crap is removed, 322 appears to be noticeably zippier then 318. I am going to hold on to it for a few days and let everyone know.
I won't be pleased without a real batter percentage meter or a black taskbar.. but will see. Maybe someone else can figure out the issues with the framework-res.apk
I have made some headway with the theming on 322. The only way i can get it to work is the following
1. take framework-res.apk and run at circle kitchen
2. export edited framework-res.apk
3. overwrite graphics you want carefully.
4. edit the statusbar_expanded for font color
5. go back to circle kitchen make a flashable zip
6 . load with streakmod recovery.
took many hours to get this to work... the above is the only way i was able to do it.
I am giving up on 322... have that notification issue where it just phantomly appears...
going to try dj steve rom now for the first time.
