ROM date: 12/03/03
Radio version: 1.08.00
Protocol version: 1337.18

Now i want to learn if there are any upgrades for this particular phone not the un-released windows 2005 but offical ones i have no clue where to check up if there are and i bought this from Singapore and now reside in another country where O2 doesn't exsist. I expect to get flamed for this but i dont want baby steps just point me in the right direction thats all i ask for. I dont mind reading but i don't know what i am reading about either i see different ROM versions and what not and i can't make heads or tails of it. Your support will be most appericiated,

To those of use without the benefit of Xtal balls, you might mention what rom version you have, your carrier e.g. T-Mobile and other salient items.
O2 should have an update in Jan04

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 live in Kansas City, Missouri and have the T-Mobile XDA I (or whatever it is called). I bought it with the 2002 OS on it and upgraded to the 2003 version that I found on the t-mobile website. I was curious if there was a newer, more stable version out yet that is official yet? The version I currently have on there is:
ROM version: 4.01.16 ENG
ROM date: 2/4/04
Radio version: 6.25.02
Protocol version: 324e4
Is this the newest one for my phone and if not where can I find the newest one?
THANKS A TON!!
Can someone PLEASE help me out here?
There is no newer Version of ROM available.
As much as i know, T-mobile removed this release, because they have some problems with it.
From O2 there is an version out (4.01.12) but this had never been official released on their website to download.

I cooked a ROM in your Kitchen for my XDA 1. Your Kitchen is great and I was able to customize the ROM fifor my needs.
I've got:
ROM version: 4.01.16 ENG
ROM Date: 2/4/04
Radio version: 6.18.00
This ROM is giving me all kinds of problems such as
XDA turns itself on every few minutes when the phone (radio) is on.
Sometime the SD card shows up as empty, othertimes it has the files?
Is there a more stable and functional ROM?
On my harddrive I've got the following ROMs as executables:
3.17
4.00
Official T-Mobile RUU2.07 v4.01.16
Which of these would you say is the best and can I use any of them
in your ROM Kitchen?
Don't know, which ROM Version is the best.
I'm using the 4.00.33 Version, but it's in German, so it isn't useful for you.
I never had much problems with this ROM, so it's the best for me.
Many people reports, that the best WM2003 ROM is the 4.01.12.
3.17.03 is surely one of the stablest ROMs, but it's still Pocket PC 2002 and not the new WM2003.

Thanks for your help. I am using WM2003.
I notice in your kitchen that ROM 4.01.12 is a version from O2 in the UK.
Will this work for me in the USA? If so, do I choose the No Autoconfig option? Is there anything else I need to adjust to make it work here?
Any other ROM versions to use in the USA?
Also, I cooked my current ROM using the WM2003 final verison in your kitchen. Is the device turning on every few mintues if the phone (radio)
is on, a known problem?
Thank you.
Sorry for asking the same old question.. I have a Simlocked o2 XDAII and having read through the forums, I feel confident that there is a solution within the info, I just can't be sure that I have understood which is the best option. There seem to be several suggestions, some based on which radio version you have, some based on which ROM version and given that the version numbers dont run in sequence, I'm not sure I have found the latest?
If someone could guide me as to which is the best/safest unlocking suggestion for an O2 XDAII with the following, I'd hugely appreciate it.
ROM version 1.03.00 USA
ROM Date: 24Sept03
Radio version: 1.05.12
Protocol version: 1337.12
Software: PPC 2003 with Outlook 2002
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.
