I saw a lot of upgrades for XDAII.
but actually I do not know where to start.
The last upgrade I made was rom version
1.60.00wwe
12/03/03
radio version 1.08.00
protecol ver; 1337.18
Extrom 1.60.44
what are the following next steps to take for upgrading latest ROM and BT version?
you have rom for asian edition, so.....
1. don't start, stay with your rom or
2. upgrade to 1.72 rom or direct to WM2003SE rom.
try to search this forum about upgrading.

I am already reg. with I-mate as owner of one of it products, I got informations from them say that new room will be avilable soon it is ver. 1.66 for XDA II maybe next few days, and the windows Ver. is Windows 2003 SE
at all when I got the link to download it I will publish the link for everyone, Thank you for everyone published that great support using XDA II and XDA. it was great help to me to came very expert in solving problems to my XDA and XDAII
as my profile say then
i have
RUU 1.66.00WWE
RSU 1.10
on my qtek2020 it came with that
as far as i can tell it's not 2003 SE
specs
ROM version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM date> 02/20/04
Radio version 1.10.00
protocol version 1337.18
extOM version 1.66.140
I published what I already read in I-mate forum, I didn't have it yet ...... by the way all new edditions of XDAII coming with v. 1.66
so Rudegar
as it is getting really stressy to have the latest release... ;-)
do you have any ideas about the improvements with your
1.66.00 ROM over the 1.60.00
Alex
hmm, can you post a copy of your rom?
you can copy the rom with pmemdump from itsutils.
well it had that rom when i got it so i cant really compare it with 1.60 since i went from a xda1
i'll look into drumping the rom
but it does seem to have some auto settings and such for
some phone company
usually the phone company specific stuff is in the extended rom.
itsme:
usually the build number is just the ExtROM right? example, the latest tmobile rom i saw in the other thread had 1.60.36, but the os was simply 1.60.00, and the radio was 1.10.00, and the extrom was 1.60.36
does that mean that IF we extract whatever newest rom that comes out in the future and see that it has the same osrom ver and radio stack, merely upgrading the ExtROM is the best way to go?
I mean i know people prefer to only flash the ExtROM, but that's because they want to cook something up. But what if you just want to upgrade and not waste time with the OS if you see they still have the same number, does it HAVE to come hand in hand to upgrade? Or could you just bypass the others and upgrade the ExtROM and expect it to perform like a real update?
yes, that is what I usually do.
I just modified the "mdkia" 's files and uploaded it ....
hope those are useful for some people with I-Mate 1.52.00wwe.
I have upgraded it successfully...
just finished ...it works:
ROM version: 1.60.00WWE
Radio version: 1.10.00
ExtROM version: 1.60.50
Do you know that I-Mate planning to release 1.66 within a week?
"...Dear Sir,
Thank You for your enquiry and interest. The latest version will be is version 1.66 ROM, and with much better performing for i-mate pocket pc.
..."

which ROM is best for XDA2
before you do anything to upgrade your XDA2, you need to think anout your satisfaction with your XDA2 now.
If your device work well, you won't need to do anything.
because of ROM upgrade is risky your device please think before do anything.
In my suggestion, the best ROM is T-mobile 1.72. you can search in this forum to find topic about T-mobile 1.72.
think before do anything.
What about if you use 1.66.00 WWE and the damn thing crashes all the time? any reccommendations? A few people have been raving about the imate 1.72
My IMate 1.72 ROM is running okay. A few little problems, but nothing that a soft reset didn't cure.
I'm on the T-Mobile ROM...
ROM version: 1.60.00WWE
Radio version: 1.10.00
... with a customized ExtRom.
i-mate ROM 1.72 doesn't work with my GPS Software (Intellinav - Belkin Navigation System)... and it also has bad Cleartype. I-mate ROM 1.66 also has the Cleartype problem, and one of the cleartype fixes some one posted here gave me a hard reset. I-mate ROM 1.52 doesn't have the integrated applications as services advantage so there are less processes available on that ROM, which means you won't be able to run as many applications at once.
Personally, I think I'm going to stick to ROM 1.60 until some Second Edition ROMs start showing up.
Anyone got a 1.60 ROM that I can get? I found that much better than the 1.72 that I upgraded to, but I deleted it..
im on imate 1.72 never had a sd erase nor hard reset have to softreset every few days thats all works great with tomtom3 and BT gps
gaz
ROM version: 1.66.00 WWE
ROM date: 2/20/04
Radio version: 1.08.00
Protocol version: 1337.18
ExtROM version: 1.66.165
Do i have the latest one? If not where i can get the latest? ALso, I have some problems with my XDA II, will downloading the same ROM solve my problems?even if it's not the updated one?
the latest official one is 1.75
if you upgrade your device with the same rom it already have
it's just the same thing as a hardreset
you can find roms on the ftp you can find out how to get to the ftp in the wiki pages
Hi, Rudegar. It's original rom for O2 XDA II?
Do you know?
no i think the last official rom from o2 was 1.72
Doesnt it just suck that there was never even a 2003SE rom for the XDAII ?
Man, I mean come on o2, I can understand no 2005rom, but 2003SE!?
My god-knows-how-old iPaq 3970 is running wm2003, and you cant be bothered to give us the 2003se update for XDAII ??? Jeez. you stingy gits.
Hello,
I have here an on Himalaya Phone (QTek, Vodaphone Germany branded)
any option to update/upgrade firmware to sth. new
ROM-Version 1.66.01GER
Radio 1.10.00
Protokoll 1337.18
ExtRom 1.66.221
I never upgraded a PocketPC, but I'm not a newbie to computers....
Thanks for your help
Bernhard
sure you can get 2003se. wm5, wm6, wm6.1 and wm6.5
the description in the readme in the rom packets include all the
info anybody could give
Also, this is very secure process, it is very low danger that you can brick your phone upgrading rom, but you must be very careful while updating Radio. Radio update takes 2~3 minutes, and it is as automatic as rom upgrade.
