Downgrade to original 02 UK please!!! Anyone? - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

Link to the original O2 downgrade, pleeeeeeeeease?

Download the launch rom from the O2 site.

Me too, I've had enough of the problems with this upgrade now, the original rom was reliable and did everything i wanted and it was faster too

I also agree. It is not an upgrade. For me the old rom is much better.

Some (basic?) questions about upgrading an MDA II

Hello, First of all i wanted to tell you guys that i really appreciate the things you are doing for the community and i hope i can help a bit 2.
I have a T-Mobile MDAII which i want to upgrade. I have seen the "today screen" of O2 and i really love it. I have some questions though about the upgrading.
- When i make a backup using XDATools can i safely restore it?
- Does it matter if my phone is still sim locked?
- Do i need the t_mobile to 02 rom update or can i just upload a new 02 rom?
- Using romkitchen, i have built a rom with "4.00.16 ENG T-Mobile US" Is this better then an O2 rom upgrade?
Does somebody have the latest upgrades for me?
- Radio stack upgrade
- Rom upgrade
Thanx

I'm sorry, that i can't help you concernig to you other questions, but i only use the xda I device, but the cooked 4.00.16 ROM from the kitchen is useless for you. These Roms, out of the official kitchens are specified for the XDA I / MDA I /QTEK1010 device. But you have an xda II....

You Stated:

Not sure about XDA Tools, but if this is for the XDA, not XDA II or MDA II, then it does not apply. Last item N/A also.
Yes I believe it would matter if your phone was locked, but cannot confirm.
You will need the cooked ROM, t_mobile to 02 rom update . Otherwise, you will run into the country error issue.
I also have an MDA II, and I would like to use this upgrade also, but I have been reluctant to use a custom ROM or hack, because I'm certain that my device's warranty wouldl be voided if I do so. I also understand that going back to a ROM or downgrading to a ROM may be problematic.
If you elect to install it let me know how you like the O2 Rom.

Should I Upgrade?

Hi all,
I'm a newbie here and want to upgrade my rom which is
1.60.00WWE,
radio 1.06.01,
ext rom 1.60.06,
I am using Turkcell as my gsm operator (Turkey) and my settings are for . Turkey. I downloaded a rom file in the forums named o2 1.72wwe. Is it just for the o2 users or does it support my gsm provider?
Any help would be appreciated,
dr_kaan
BTW: I bought the T-mobile XDA2 from a guy in Istanbul. He told me the original rom was German t-mobile rom. The rom i'm using now is Dutch.
you can do everything with your ROM, because you allways can recover by sd card, but never touch RADIOSTACK.
sorry... but that's nonsense...
On the XDA2 the radiostack will upgrade together with the rom and the ext-rom for all rom's higher than 1.60.
Explicatly people ruined their machine because the removed the radiostack file from the upgrade...
As usual... if you don't have problem's don't upgrade...
For me 1.60 ROM is still one of the best.
I go with that, I also have the dutch rom, and so far, it has been the most stable one, I upgraded from the german Rom.
The dutch one is a really recomandable
Thank you guys i will continue with it.
The reason i wanted to upgrade was a friend of mine told me that the new rom extended the battery life.Is that true?
One more question, will we be able to upgrade to wm2003 se?
Thanks
i think so,
i have tried my device from full capacity (100%) till 7%, i have 05.12 hours.
condition :
browsing & using excell, (no mp3, movie & game).
yes, we will, if SE come out from our provider.

UK ROM v1.72.187 - Anyone tried it?

OK!
The above ROM has been released and I believe many users have already downloaded it.
Just to check whether:-
a) any problme faced during installation? Is the upgrading procedure straight forward?
b) any problem upgrading from WAXX ROM to this UK ROM?
c) any problme faced during upgrading from i-Mate v1.72 to this UK ROM?
d) other problems encountered?
Thanks for your feedback

http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12512

RE
Hi Hobbit!
What file and where's the link? :roll:
BTW, is the performance better than the WAXX ROM and the i-Mate v1.72 ROM?
Thanks
this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12512
sorry was in different forum lol
I've uploaded ROMs here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12528
yep tried em both. no real noticable difference to the unofficial 1.72 ive been using for months. Looks like its new device time as no hope of further updates - unless someone knows differntly....
I have upgraded, no problems.......everything works fine !!
:lol:
RE
Just one question.
Is this upgrade solely meant for UK users?
I'm from the asian side. I just can't wait for myxda to release its asian version.
Any problem with my asian telco operators here?
Thanks
I just upgraded my XDA II to the O2 UK 1.72.187 release. It all went well. I previously had installed the i-mate 1.72 ROM.
I had used Activesync to do a full backup prior to upgrading, and I restored it after the upgrade. After a couple of soft resets, everything seems OK, including the Widcomm bluetooth stack I previously had installed.
So, although early days yet, everything seems OK
Only downside - in my opinion
I was using the asian ROM version 1.60.44 for the longest time without any problems, I just upgraded to the UK ROM version 1.72.181 and the only downside I noticed, as of now, is that the clear type sucks, its just like the 1.72 of the i-Mate, of the 1.66 of the Asian O2. It was way better in the old ROM I was using.

Thanks DCS for the link. My ClearType is A OK again now
My pleasure
Just upgraded to the image with blackberry version on a CPW xdaII runing 1.66 - result good
1st I backed up with version 3.7.1 of active sync
then I hard reset
then I closed all the programs and icons in the system tray
First it failed with usb left on the screen.
I did a soft reset and re ran the upgrade program again and all is well.
I am now restoring the backup, haha which worked except for a few files which I skipped, these were the same files that were skipped on a normal restore.
Now my destinator satnav is working and that is tied to the machine so all in ace
what have I gained, I don't really known, looking forward to the fax though,
where is it?
Simon
Additional download.
You will find it in the Fax software in the XDAIIAppSuite uploaded by The Hobbit in his post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12526

Do you try ClearType Tuner in this ROM, the file is cttune.cpl.CAB
I think it's another way to correct the cleartype problem beside the dcs' way? Is it right?
is there anyone got problems like mine?I stuck with SMS, i did send one sms to my number and it takes 4 hour to delivery it and when i go to sent box i didnt see any sms that i have sent???? do you knows that and can you tell me how to fix it?
From Inbox check Tools/Options/Keep copy of sent mail in Sent folder
As for the four hour delay - I get that sometimes - I put it down to O2 network.

What's the Ultimate WM2003 Se in ur opinion?!?!?

To whom upgraded to WM2003 SE.
What's the Ultimate SE ROM you used and you think that's the most stable one. I already upgraded to WM2003 SE the 2.06 but I didn't cook the Ultimate Extended_Rom.
Thus, I'm asking you in order to get the most stable device using the latest upgrades. Plz tell me what should I use bcz the merged one and the chinese I didn't try it yet but am looking for the easiest way to sort out a good ROM thus, I read and searched, but still I'm not convinced since the both english ROM are Beta....Waiting your answer.
Thank you.

Should choose an Asia rom or an Australia rom?
I bought a used XDA II on Ebay. How do I determine if I should try an Asia rom (like Philippine WM2003se xdall Upgrade xda2jojo ver3.0?) or a Austrailia rom (like Sin.Merged.v2.0?). Or is the "Genuine English WM2003 SE upgrade for Himalaya" the way to go? Should I use the versions linked in the forums or are there more current or better versions on the FTP site?
My carrier is Cingular in the U.S.
Thanks

we(and sin) are using the same based ROM...

WM 6.0 ROM needed for HTC Hermes (AT&T 8525)

Since HTC removed the WM 6.0 upgrade from their Web site last month, I am unable to locate it anywhere.
Can anyone offer a link to a download site for the OEM version of WM 6.0?
Alternately, please email me a copy, if possible.
Thanks for your help!

For safety's sake, flash Hard SPL V7 1st. This will offer some protection so you won't end up with a brick.
After you install Hard SPL you are able to flash ANY Hermes rom on this (or any other) site. Just make sure its for the Hermes though.
