Hi,
Does anyone know if an official T-Mobile ROM update exist? My MDA-II is ROM version 1.03.00 USA, and I understand there are 1.60 ROM versions out there...
So if yes, where can I find it? Or if not, are there reliable alternatives to update my machine to a higher, read more sophisticated, level?
Thanks and regards,
Gerard
Supposedly you can upgrade the ROM here:
http://www.t-mobile.de/downloads/1,1953,7483-_,00.html
Says here that you can easily convert to english version:
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=267345
But I am holding off until I know my MDA II won't crash here in USA.
Suggestions?
That link is NOT correct, it points to the German ROM.
The English version is here @ http://www.xda-developers.com/incoming/rom160wwe/
Grtz,
Jos
Ok, thanks for the link to the english ROM update. Could you possibly advise the possible issues I might experience if I dl?
Additional questions I have:
1. What happens to the applications I have installed... are they removed?
2. What do you feel the significant value is for upgrading?
3. Am I possibly going to encounter more trouble than it is worth?
The following is posted on source o2 site:

Hi,
Is this a UK ROM Version of the XDA II ?
Thanks

I had no idea but I guess it is as it comes from SourceO2...
It's the same link to download 1.72.181
http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/Xda_update.htm
You will find the link to download 1.72.181...
http://64.244.24.19/xda/Xda_II_172181_Final.exe
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.
Country Error? I had prviously the XDA-Devel. 1.72 installed
Any ideas how to fix this butg? OUch, just upgraded last week to the xda-develpers 1.72, and now want this new o2 one, ouch!
Should be working normally...

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...

Check my post here. My guess is your previous upgrade set your operator in the device to a non-O2 value.

A release from O2Asia is expected. O2Asia usually follows about a week after O2UK, I think.

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?
Grazie mille

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
What the Hell.. 2.20.something is official!!! even if they traslated it to englisg, tagalog, korean but its still came from the official released!!! they still came from the original..

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.
PEACE to all yo! (FYI, I am not a priest)
I have XDA II ROM 1.03.00 GER (German language version).
May I upgrade it directly to the latest ROM version 1.72.12 or should I upgrade it to the 1.6050WWE first?
And I would like to get rid of the German language too.
Thanks for your help.
roms are replaces 100% so it dont matter if you get 1.6X first
Could you also advise the whole step-by-step upgrading process "for dummy" (or link)?
Thanks.
