Boo hoo. This is up on Source O2. Xda II ROM upgrade ... the latest & final Xda II System Software is available for you to download
Guess its time to buy the Blue Angel. :twisted:
Thanks for this post, but where the hell is the download link? :evil:
It's not available just yet, Source O2 have the 1.72 page up here but the download link takes you to v1.6050 at My-XDA.Com
Patience lads November 1st is the release date (according to several sources). I guess SourceO2 are just getting themselves prepared so they can be 'first' to announce it
Yeah
It's official then - my Xda II is obsolete.
why?
does the fact that 2003SE is not comming makes it absolute ?
is it rotating ?
is it lack of higher resolution ?
is it 3th party software which will only run on SE
is it the bluetooth stack?
black berry!

Upgrade instructions (to come)
This software does not have Blackberry software built in. The 1.72.181 software upgrade, which will be available from the 1st of November will feature Blackberry.
This software is for Xda II purchased from O2 in the UK and Ireland. German O2 customers should visit www.o2xda.de, and Asia O2 customers should visit www.myxda.com, for ROM upgrades for those countries.
hey can u tell where the rom is available or any link for it.
thanks

I read that message differently, while it says final, I take that to mean - final after lots of beta tests. Not final, as in the last one we'll ever get!

If you noticed tha last post here was in 2004. Since then the wizards here in xda-developers have cooked up WM 5 and WM 6 ROMS which are far superior to the original 2003. Just Choose which you want to install in your XDA. There are threads for both. Just read carefully instructions in installing AND how to get more memory.
Thanks Bro!

Hi
I have just bought a XDA from a o2 shop in the UK.
I have been exploring around it and checked out my Device Information and this is what it says :-
ROM version : 1.03.00 USA
ROM date : 09/24/03
Radio Version : 1.05.12
Protocol Version : 1337.12
Now to me these nubers seem totally different to what everyone else has. I have not made any alterations to the phone and as I said bought it from a o2 shop.
I was thinking of adding the o2 update to it
http://www.o2.co.uk/productsservices/xda/romupgrade/0,,170,00.html

Dan,
I believe, this ROM upgrade is for XDA not XDA II. Please be patient for about a couple of weeks and official upgrade will be available.
HTH
Ottoman.
I am very new to this, and I think I have been confused between the xda 1 & 2. So my settings would seem normal for a XDA 2 ?
Cool
Dan
It's allright... allthough it is a pretty old ROM
Mine (Qtek 2020) had the same ROM when it was new, but I upgraded a couple of times, now using the 1.60 Dangaard ROM that works good...
To play it safe, wait til O2 release their official upgrade...
Late
On sourceO2 it says that you can download the latest O2 ROM. Now, I know this link isn't up and running yet, but it does give some interesting info.
The bit I'm interested in is the new applications that come with a new XDA2. It says on here you can download them, but then asks for a username/password.
Anyone have a SourceO2 account and could pull these off for us?
Thanks!

Extract the 1.72.187 ROM image
I was wondering has anyone try to extract the ms_.nbf in the 1.72.187 update from sourceO2 website? I have tried to extract it with xda2nbftool and er2003edit (password: 0x20040305) but failed. If anyone got it, please let me know how to do it. Thank you for all suggestions and advices.
Where did you get the 1.72.197 update from? SourceO2 are still linking to the 1.60.50 update at my-xda.com.
Sorry for the confusion. I don't have the 1.72.187 ROM. I messed up by my own "folder system" . The one that I thought it is the 1.72.187, well actually, is some kind of customization ROM and I named it as 1.72.187. Sorry for all confusions I have created!

What won't install? Where does your quoted "the ROM is updated" message come from?
The three new apps won't install.
The installer runs on the PC,
then on the XDA there is the same error each time.
Setup Error - Unable to install application, Please update your device ROM to the required version before trying again.
I've upgraded to v172187,
restored by backup,
synchronised
and everything works fine.
Except this.
It could be that the restore overwrote the ROM version in the registry. Check your device information to see what version it reports. If it is incorrect, change it by amending the registry value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\3rdversion\MSYSTEM to the correct value then try the installs again.

You will find the link to download 1.72.181...

Do you pick only one of the two, off to read PDF's.
Here are the answers from the PDF's...
181 will disconnect any connection when phone rings, except the Blackberry, Mobile Web and WAP connections. If you need to use a permanent GPRS connection that will remain connected when phone is used, you should use 187 version.
Also, there are additional apps available for download as well (same page).
1. KSE Truefax
2. Fonix Voice Dial
3. ZIP Manager
This is the GERman update, AFAIK...
Could anybody provide the username and password for www.SourceO2.com website for downloading this updates, please? Thank you.

You can register a username for free on the O2 site, and get a password mailed to you. You will then be able to download the files.
Ha, cool! Thanks. I thought is dependent on using O2 device (check on IMEI)...
Hm... I'm registred, but my credentials are not working...
You can follow the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=63862#63862 to get the upgrade working. mine is at 38% updated and I should be done in about an hour or so.
The extra applications file is attached to this post for simplicity...

Correct me if im wrong...

I am right about the statement above and here is the link for download. BTW, thanks to those original developers of these Roms and here you are for the links and downloads
V2.02WWE http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=74980#74980 (on the very first page)
V 2.06WWE http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=74980#74980 (on bottom of the first page) Note that there are many customization to this version. However, the differences of each file is rooted in the customization of Extended Rom.
V 2.20.07WWE http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=74985#74985
All the above are UNOFFICIAL with the latter being under development and not yet 100% functional. However, the rate at which buzz_lightyear and mamaich are after the completion is rapid so stick to the site for update
The only official rom is now in chinese version and the link to that is http://mamaich.kasone.com/imate/chineese_se.rar

dUh!! if you look unto the official dopod website. Dopod released the 2.20CHS SE for dopod 696 wich is equivalnt to o2 XDA II... Did you get me? The 2.02 and the 2.06 are the images wich was not realesed and it is only for the developer of the himalaya device wich was stolen (maybe) and posted somewhere else on the net thats why we got it but the 2.20 was not stolen or illegal release becouse dopod actually dopod released it..... Duh!
dazed and confused!
Out of all the downloads and rom upgrades out there, what is the most stable and comprehensive. This is my first time here and I'm afraid of hurting my baby.

The fact is, that the 2.20CHS version is the official ROM that is released. All the other 3 versions will work on your device, but depending on your needs, it has varying degree of differences you may have to live with.
IMHO,
2.20WWE ( hack from 2.20CHS, half-translated from Chinese to English by mamaich. Contains the best combination of drivers/default software (e.g. WMP10 mobile, BT settings))
2.02 (better BT settings, same BT stack as 2.06. Poor cleartype. Same software. Faster reset. BT Handsfree implementation not complete. WMP 9 Mobile)
2.06 (Better cleartype. Same software. Slower reset. BT Handsfree configuration missing. WMP 9 Mobile)
All 3 versions have these common issues (I believe):
(a) BT profile will hide on Today items if not use.
(b) Speaker (reported by a few pple, not sure if its true or not).
(c) SDIO does not support Sandisk SD Wifi Combo card (w 256RAM)
(d) There are a number of software that will hang/hard reset/soft reset the device. These are the software that is not built to support WM2003SE.
I would seriously advise you to spend some time and search the forum with the key words WM2003SE, ROM, upgrade.
I understand that there are many discussions on these matters, but it will really benefit you in checking the latest updates.
Muchas Gracias!
Thanks so much for clarifying it for me. I've been reading the threads half the night and came out more confused than ever.
There seems to be a lot of discussion going on about what is better.
Now I have a better understanding of what is available.
When you say half chinese what does that mean exactly?
Thanks again!
That means....

Mamaich has hacked the 2.20CHS ROM to remove some of the Chinese translation mappings from the ROM. I believe the job is incomplete as some of the translations are within the DLL files and are difficult to be removed. The effort result in the 2.20WWE ROM.
Therefore, if you installed the 2.20WWE ROM, you get some of the software still with Chinese characters in the menu items.
Then...
Any point in upgrading? Ive got 1.6 wwe, and since all three aren't perfect, might as well wait for a post saying eureka ive got it. or am i wrong? I'm so confused with these posts, thus if it is useful upgrading, can any one briefly sum up what is on average the best rom then please? or shall I wait?

If you're not up to the challenge of literally "TOASTING" your XDA then I strongly discourage you to upgrade. But if you do understand the consequences then go ahead. If I were you I'd wait though since all of the versions have bugs you would have to find the BEST one yourself. Lucky for you if you flashed it the first time and its perfect.
Now if you're up for the challenge and HAVE A LOT OF EXTRA TIME be ready to upgrade/downgrade endlessly to find the BEST version.
Good Luck

Hmmm ... there's something wrong with your definition of OFFICIAL you might be using a different dictionary. Yes the 2.20.07WWE came from the official 2.20CHS.
Its UNOFFICIAL simply because it is NOT the OFFICIAL ENGLISH version released by O2. Do you get my point?
Translating it to another language does not make it OFFICIAL. Sheesh :roll:
edited:
It's official CHINESE but it's not official ENGLISH or official GERMAN version. FYI, being a Filipino you should know by now our national language is not TAGALOG its called FILIPINO. TAGALOG is a dialect similar to BISAYA, PANGGALATOK, etc.
I think we should put an end to an official - unofficial discussion.
Because i like to alsways say something last: All SE versions for non Dopod devices are UNofficial. For Dopod devices there is 1 official SE rom version.
Simply because there were NO roms initially released for these devices. Thus: When focussing on non-Dopod its only a matter of determining how unofficial these roms are. Which is a stupid question in itself, but here we go:
Only for Dopod there is an official (2.20 CHS) SE ROM
For all other Himalaya's all SE ROM's are unofficial:
2.02WWE dcs
2.06WWE mystery man
2.20.07WWE translated from CHS by mamaich
2.20CHS
The 2.02 and 2.06 versions are WWE test versions from presumably HTC.
2.20.07 is the (partial) translated CHS retail version
2.20CHS is the Dopod retail version.
FULL STOP??
Full stop? Ans = YES....
I agree with edsub...
No more quarrel okay? Let's have a peace in this forum and help each other instead... Some words are offensive to some people (eg. duh!, stupid!..dumb! and so.. on..), so please let's try not to used it. Let's have a happy holiday and hope to find all answer without insulting each other.

Hi, sorry if this has been answered before but I couldn't find the info on the forums.
Is there a ROM update available for the O2 XDA2i? Either an update to the original ROM or a generic/unbranded update?
Would appreciate any help/links etc. Thanks in advance.
I think we are ALL eagerly waiting, hopefully anticipating, daily contemplating, even wishing, that sooner rather than late, we will get a [email protected]#$%ing ROM update!
