well.. greetings to everyone. My first contact with this fabulous source of knowledge was last year. İ ve bought a t mobile mda2 from Germany and the salesman told me that "the device includes english menus" . And i have no idea about their language. So i started to look for a solution in the net. Being a dentist in Turkey does not much help in technical subjects. Even though a man like(motto=they develop i use) me was able to convert the machine to an English ROM even with a newer add-ons. And nowadays i am using a ROM merged by sin 2003 SE and perfectly happy with it.
None of this devices are sold in Turkey so my friends who loved the PDA at the first sight had to look for it across the europe and internet.
Last week a very close friend of mine asked me if he buys xda2i from germany that i would somehow convert it to english . depending on the xda-developers site i said that it wont be a problem.
Thinking that alpine is only a himalaya with 1.3 camera i tried to update the machine with sinmerged 2003SE. And after that i recognised it as a fatal mistake. Now my friends XDAIIi cannat even boot. On its screen you can only see serial v1.01. and when you connect it to the computer you can only see usb 1.01 on a grey unlighted screen. I tried to install the english rom and ofcourse recieved a country id error which i could not solve. İ tried to find the original german ROm and i could not find it even in o2 official site.
So is this machine dead? please help me .
non of the htc devices can share roms
and alpine also have a different cpu, and wifi
they just look alike
Goto http://myxda.com and download the launch rom for the Xda2i. Then it will work.
Mike
sorry but not true
No Mikee4fun it doesnt work like that. Because if i download that version of ROM and try to install it, the country code id error message stops the installation. Because my friend bought if from Germany. And O2 germany site does not hold a copy of the german ROM.
Thats why i need help. Because i tred every other and legal solutions.
İf any body knows how to pass the country id code error message please help me.
You need to use the the xda 2 nbftool located at the following to make the UK rom work with the O2 German XDA IIi unit. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=xda2nbftool Read it and gooduck.
no rom editing for alpine
again thanx for the effort mikee4fun but these editors are only working with himalaya (MDA2-XDA2) ROMs. No one knows the password for the ALpine(XDA2i) ROMs.
So the kind of editing suggested by you can not be done.. Thats why i am asking for help!
Help :wink:

(it is chinese)
here some screen shot
when does O2 will released W2K3 SE ?
or We need to wait from T-mobile or i-mate.
So I must learn chinese... right? Or these european guys will finally have their own version of SE for Himalaya?
this sounds promising.
If we can assume that all roms are based on 1 original (and I can't be;ieve that one is chinese . . .) there MUST be a Himalaya WM2003SE WWE rom around . . .
Now if only someone can post that one . . .
I think like you edsub.
It mean that all XDA2 can use WM2003 SE.
but from other post, most of people said O2 won't release W2K3 SE
may from business trick for sell other device such as XDAIIs or XDA III
is anyone here able to get that ROM from:
ftp://220.163.6.130
user: linyapda
pass: linyadown
?
I'm having troubles downloading it...
THANX
buzz
I can try tonight (GMT +1)
THANX edsub
i'm already @ 5.09MB out of 120.13 Mb however speed is 3KB/s and connection is breaking all the time... (
Could you paste the full URL for the file?
I can then add it to GetRight and it'll just sit there trying to get it for me
ftp://linyapda:[email protected]/696µÚ¶þ°æROM/69602Ver.BIN
well, some chinese characters in the path... I hope it doesn't matter...
buzz
Cheers!
I'm giving it a try right now... hope it works!
The device like xda II, mda II, qtek version, dpod version and other has the same hardware. If that one can use SE perfectly, surely we SE can also be use to XDA II.... i know 1 member here who uses SE he showed it to me in the pix and its tru... but he dont want to share cuz he promised to Microsoft that he will not distribute it...

Sorry, but if you name it Dopod 696 it's XDAII with Windows 2003 (not SE) you can see this link http://www.dopod.com/gb/product/696_1.jsp
and this is 696i (T-Mobile design) http://www.dopod.com/gb/product/696i_1.jsp
I think there's confusing on this matter!
Any ideas!
ammar: Nope, I've not even been able to connect to the FTP server yet.
hungdu: Those two devices are exactly the same - just different cases. ie, they're both "XDA II"'s.
Neither of them say they run WM2003SE tho.
hey guys,
check the photos of XDAII running SE, on those chinese web pages..
@buzz:
The folder /696µÚ¶þ°æROM
on the 220.163.6.130 ftp server does not contain anything!!
Gues someone was kind enought to delete it (it it was there) . . .
Any more sources?
some one confirmed that he used WM2003SE on his XDA2 :!:
read about it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=69314#69314
Have anyone downloaded the update from chineese FTP?
I'm downloading the W2K3SE now.
Will post it once complete. 8)
Under the folder in the ftp server, i found 2 files, one is 96902Ver.bin and SE Extended rom.rar .... will post when finish downloading too.
My phone is crashing twice a day now with a basic out of the box install from o2 and it's the second phone I have had.
I want to try 'anything' to fix this as the phone is close to going in the bin.
Can someone tell me where to find a ROM upgrade and anything else I can apply to my XDAIIi?
Thanks loads
Details are as follows:
ROM 1.10.00 WWE
Rom date 12/24/04
Radio 1.00.00
Protocol 1337.39
ExtROM 1.10.124 WWE
Model PH10C
Have you tried running the phone as a corporate user instead of the O2 plus?
Hard reboot-choose corporate-enter 0506
CB
i am using it as corporate ... i have the same problem .. crashing a lot!!
if their is a ROM update it migth help!
If anyone knows anyhting.. plz let us know!
Hi guys,
I don't know...why there is so much of fuss about 2i unnecessary.I hv been using it now for more than two weeks, asian ROM, in India with 512 SD, and all the popular programmes.Mine has never crashed for a singlre time, and for Asian ROM, there is no corporate mode also.
I hv also found the camera quality very very good... and I am really liking the phone...with Turbo mode and other things...
I don't know why there is lot of fuss people are speaking here thereby discouraging all to buy the one for themselves...
xda rom
i am not trying to discourage people using the xda....it's a great bit of kit WHEN IT WORKS!!!!
maybe your asian rom is newer better or whatever.
all i know is i have had two xda IIi and they both have the same fault.
no other software is loaded other than the base set of apps....and now even in corporate mode i have the same issue (though perhaps less...)
re: XDA IIi ROM
You can download the 'shipped' ROM 1.10.124 from O2's web site... http://www.my-xda.com/xda2i_soft.html
:lol:
Connections plugin
Is there a file called "connections" in /windows/startup?
If so, move it somewhere else and reboot.
You'll lose the O2 logo from the top of the screen, if you can live with that.
i have xda Zinc with chinese rom CHT_RC4070131 and now i want change to english rom.i 'm already have english rom Zinc_WWE_RC4070131_3 i try to upgrade but it does'nt acept it has mesage " cross language upgrade is not allowed.please ensure the upgrade tool language is same as the default language of your device ".someone has ideas please show me how to upgrade it.Thanks

Please check your phone do they have any sim/phone lock if yes try to search the Hard flash SPL V7 maybe this software can help.
Remark: I never use this software and you can go to HTC forum and ask the expert
dont worry
i faced same problem with ar version rom and now its finished
just run the rom upgrader and in the first page click next button then connect the zinc...
the software may confuse
in this case it will write unknown device
then tap the update key

dear gentleman,
im werner from germany and first there are excellent people in this forum. many thanks to this peoples. my problem is designed as following. by the way i am a great newbee in pda.
i get a second hand qtek 2020 from vodafone as a gift and i want to upgrade to any english version. i have to install some programs in english so i dont want install the programms on a german user interface.
so i had read and read and read postings in this forum an finally i upgraded my device to helmis version of wm2005. my device is working properly but when i want to phone i see "no service" in the display. so i have upgraded to radio version 1.18. same problem. can anyone in the forum help me to fix this issue??
many thanks
werner
does it ask for the pincode?
does it work with other simcards as some sim cards are simply incompatible with some devices
and did you unlock the sim lock ?
hello rudegar,
many thanks for your help , i tried it once more and installed the rom on my phone again. i did not make the hard reset on my phone correctly. the phone and i hope all programs works now very properly.
greets to all people in the forum from germany

Hi All.
99% of O2 Atom life in Saudi Arabia has the problem of
( ERROR : customer or model Id Error ) while updating any of the new roms from O2 web page .
after my deep investigation about this issue i found this : on boot load screen it tells USB detected ( while its not connected to the usb cable ) and you can not run any function inside the boot loader screen , although the great service center team in Saudi don't know how to fix this problem .
it will be really highly appreciated cause it will not help only me to fix my device but lots of other users have the same problem .
When you get into the Welcome screen of DSUU, open X:\Windows\Temp\pass.32 (where X is your computer's system disk) with an hex editor, and you will surely find something valuable
i did like you told me but i cant do any thing with thi srom files . please give more explinations
There are 3 characters in pass.32 that is related to the identification process, like "WWE", "CHT" or something else. For example, if you want to flash an English ROM into a traditional Chinese device, just change it from WWE to CHT. I don't have ROMs in other languages, so I don't know what language codes stand for others.
thanks but how i can modify this files and which program to use , according to what you say the rom which im using is arabic because i couldnt even install the english rom , please help me

Use something like WinHex...
did the language modifecation with winhex , WWE / ARA but still having the same problem with the same error message
Well... I don't know much about that... Hope somebody will help you in advance...
You can give another try... Do not change language code, do not enter bootloader and run DSUU directly when you synchronized the device using ActiveSync with your PC.
i have the same problem here and as hero said lots of us in saudi arabia cant upgrade with the same problem
ask JIGGS if he have idea regarding this....
