Help with SELECT COUNTRY from O2 Active - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

Guys
i have an XDA II and it starts with o2 active. if i go to My XDA and select connections, select country is set to Germany (I need to get this to UK and make it stay on UK)
when i change this to UK, device then resets and boots back up. go to check it and it's back to Germany.
Do i need to upgrade the ROM to get this to UK Device ? if so, which rom do i get?
will the special rom from XDA Developers do the trick and update my device ?
what the hell do i do if all goes wrong ?
if someone can advise on these questions, i'll be most happy.
also tried setting up the gprs settings for O2 UK and they will not stay in device or connect. i assume that this is to do with the Germany thing ???!!?
god i am so confused, so any help at all guys ?
many thanks.

It is a bug, I had this happen several times, when you are presented with the choice screen wait a while before choosing your country, click firmly and it should work ok.

thanks for the reply
i've managed to change it to Ireland and it stayed like that for a while
thinking of putting the XDA Developers special rom on and flashing the thing !
cheers anyway

please reconsider!
being that the special rom is made for xda1 and not 2
and if it would somehow let you upgrade your device with a rom for another device it would prob magcialy turn it in to a brick
and forcing it to sleep for 1024 years unless some beautiful frog kiss'd it or something

thanks for the warning
it just so happens i clicked on the upgrade rom before going on the net and got error unable to locate device !
so i stopped and checked the net and found your message
anyone have any idea what is the best rom to upgrade to from mine.
getting a problem with the camera after playing an MPG file via PocketTV !!!!

Radio/Rom/Link
where can i download this link.
ROM Version 1.60.00WWE
ROM Date 12/03/03
Radio Version 1.10.00
Protocol Version 1337.18
ExtROM 1.60.50
Thanks

What link you after ????
cruisin-thru, you suggestion didn't work
i also flashed the ROM from the O2UK web site and it still selects Germany
any one got any other ideas? or does it even make a difference ?
I also get a problem with Pocket TV and my Camera after playing MPG files.....
cheers for all the help guys.

upgrade UK xdaII to which rom?

UK XDA II but the sms bug (missing +) is driving me slightly mad.
I'd like to upgrade to a rom which has this fixed but preferably has GPRS on all the time (I believe the tmobile one doesnt?.. what about the latest qtek?).
Any suggestions as to which?
Also, what do we think the chances of being able to apply a new O2 rom (when it comes out) back on top of say a qtek one? I'm assuming it may give an ID error but we know how to bypass that now?
A UK ROM update will be available soon. I'm not sure if this includes any SMS missing "+" fix, but it should address the Bluetooth COM/GPS issues.
You can use the T-mobile rom and change the MS file to Asia or UK rom then you can use the a useual what you required.
How can I do
Dear All,
Please help to show me the steps for upgrade my XDA II ROM to lastest version, I try upgrade it but show incorrect country ID error....

Wrong ROM upgrade

Guys, this is my first post in this forum after many desperate attempts to fix my XDAII. I've accidentally put the new UK updated ROM version and and I live in Australia. This update was strictly for UK and it always try to connect to O2 network that we don’t have it here (This new O2 icon on top is so annyoing aswell). The executable I run was Xda_II_Upgrade_v16050.exe and it has updated the Radio version and the ExRom version.
Is there anyway that I roll it back to the old version that I had on my device. I try to do it on myxda.com site but it wouldn’t let me download it.
Any help ASAP would be highly appreciated

ROM Upgrade for HTC Touch Pro (Voda_UK) Release Date: 2009-09-28

I just happened to find this on the HTC Web site today (as I'm looking for 6.5 ROM updates), and I was wondering if a UK user would be so kind as to download it?
Since it's fairly recent, I'm hoping there will be some updated drivers or packages to be found.
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=687&news_id=269
ROM version: 5.10.161.1
UPDATE: Thanks to timolol's brilliant guess, I've been able to download this. I've mirrored it on FileFactory (full self-extracting .exe) and Mediafire (NBH only).
I'm dumping it now to see if there's anything new & exciting in there .
And I was wondering if anyone could remove all the Vodafone branded stuff, so we can all use this ROM with all other goodies intact?
It would be great to be able to get my hands on this
edit:
Good news guys! I managed to guess a valid Vodafone UK serial number: HT837K001234
Go check it out! I'm downloading now.
Cheers,
Tim
Super fly. This thread just got bookmarked.

Well, if it's really ****free, it would be great, but I doubt it - it's for Vodafone users, and Vodafone equals loads of ****.
Whats the word? I'm looking to update my EXT folder with some updates.

The word is actually a phrase: "False alarm, nothing new to see here."
SYS: 20771
P.S. If you want updates, you should look into all the new Rhodium, Topaz, Tachi, & Leo packages that are around . . .
I'm just looking for an EzInput 2.1 or newer that will work better on some of the newer roms. Didn't really expect to see anything but maybe that will change Monday.

HD2 sms sending issue

Hi everyone,
I have a stock HD2, bought it from eastern EU.
I do sms alot amongst other things but the problem is that sometimes the sms i send never reach the destination.
I did check if the other person i not out of signal and so and anything regarding signal issues and network coverage.
I activated the delivery reports and as stated sometimes the sms never gets in the air.
If anyone had the same problem or knows a fix for this issue i would be much obliged.
Regards
P.S. sometimes if i don't get a delivery report with delivered or any at all, i restart the phone (turn off, back on) and i do recieve the reports and the sms are sent.
Sometimes not, like at the moment...
Whats your ROM version? Any updates or patches applyd?
Thank you for your post!
Excuse me for i really forgot to mention my ver and so on.
OS 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila Ver 2.5.19211619.0
ROM 1.48.405.2 (71294) WWE
Rom date - 18.11.2009
Radio 2.05.51.05_2
The only updates i made to the software were the ones on the oficial htc web page.
No updates to the ROM because for my serial number none could be applied.
I am very new to the WM world so i didnt want to make any changes to the phone that would result in an expensive brick
Hope this will help you help me,
Regards
there should be an official update for the sms prob om the htc forum. also i strongly suggest updating your ROM to atleast 1.66 stock (or a custom one)
Thanks for the reply,
Problem is that i did try the official HTC update for the sms application.
Also i did try to update my ROM from the official site but when asked to enter my serial number it prompted me that the update is not suitable for my phone.
Kind of scared to update the ROM as my noobish self could brick the phone by doing something idiotic.
Also i wouldnt know wich of the milions of ROMS out there is recomended for my type of phone.

The reason is because all the mobile operators add their own personalisation to the ROM (ie T-Mobile will have Web'n'Walk in the ROM). So not to step on the mobile companies modifications, HTC will only give their ROM updates to unbranded phones (this is done through the serial number). To get the ROM update from the operator you need to go to their website.
Personally I would go to the ROM section on here and follow the instructions in install the 1.66 standard ROM. Please read the instructions and just not go straight to the download area. The 1.72 ROMs are the 1.66 ROM with mobile company branding.
Thank you for the reply,
I am going to do just that, thanks also for clearing the ROM issue for me.
Trying to install ROM 1.66 then.
Hope i will manage to

Orange UK firmware

Hi guys n girls,
I've downloaded the Orange firmware (i think from what i can understand from the letter codes) but the only one they have is swiss version. Anyone have an Orange UK version.
I've tried loading the swiss one, i gather because of the format of it, you use the one package option in ODIN, it loads into the phone fine, but when it comes to resetting after its finishes nothing happens, ive left it for several minutes and tried turning it on, but no good.
Anyone got anytips/ideas??
Thanks in advance
Flash to KBP with odin here is the link download KPB 2.3.3 http://hotfile.com/dl/116307445/a37322f/S5830XXKPB.rar.html
After Flashing if u want u can install CyanoAce... eveything is working fine from that rom
No Wifi Sleep Of Death, Great Baterry, Great perfomance , remember to change the language when u flash because it is on russian at first start lol.
I am on T-Mobile UK, Is it because you can't send SMS over 3G? Flash KPY that has the XEU CSC for UK. Fixing the issue for T-Mobile UK and Orange UK and Virgin Mobile UK
That is one of the issues I've had regarding sending sms while 3G is on, I want the Orange firmware for reference reasons.
Im was also having sms issues but no no more good old (well new) KPY..
