Did try a search but seems to be lots of caveats! Is there a set of files/instructions that I can follow/use to upgrade my XDAII to WM2k3SE without causing any problems?
Will i need to reinstall tomtom etc after the upgrade?
Many thanks for any help!
You always need to reinstall TomTom after a complete reset
OK cheers, does it work with TOM TOM 5?
I forgot
I'm running the
ROM 2.06.00WWE
RADIO 1.18.00
Protocol 1337.38
ExtRom Diamond 1.2se
It is very stable
You can check out the available versions on the ftp site.
You also need 2 DL er2003edit, this is a simple user friendly program that you use to set your operator ID.
I don't know about tomtom 5 i have tomtom 3 and it works fine.
I'm no expert but I managed to do it all with the available information
tomtom 5 navigator works on w2k3..

Hi All,
I upgraded my QTEK2020 to T-Mobile 1.60.00WWE. Everything normal except with radio on (radio vers. 1.06.01) sync hangs up and when i use contacts it usually hangs too...
What is the best upgrade available?
Anyone can help me? :?:
Thanks :lol:

The latest radio stack is 1.10.00 and included in all new o2 (and i-mate) upgrades. I suggest that you take this radio stack 'cause I did not experience that kind of problems yet.
Think it should be possible to use that radio stack for qtek as well but I think that there is already an upgrade for qtek containing the latest radio stack. Maybe you should check with your provider first...
How specifically do you take parts and pieces from a ROM upgrade, or in the case of this thread the Radio Stack?
I have an MDA II, with 1.60. I did not upgrade to the 1.60.36, because I did not really hear positive things about it and my device is working quite well.
I would however like to improve the Radio Stack independent of upgrading the ROM Ext.
How do I do this?

how can I flash only my radio stack? mine is 1.06. I want to upgrade it to 1.14. I already have the nbf file from iMate 1.72.162.
Thx alot.
Hi All,
please help me. I yesterday have only MDA1 and for flashing need to files RUU and RSU. And now i have (tomorow) new MDA2 and search new best FW for it. I hve only RUU172126WWE_imate.exe and no radio. Is need radio too? Or is all in one file (RUU172126WWE_imate.exe )? Where i can downaload new fw and radio? And best aplication for it. Meny fnx for reply and help.
arrgh...
in the exe everything is included... rom, ext-rom and radio...
Have fun
meny fnx. and is posible kitchen rom for new MDA2 or only for MDA1? Is posible, where? And Best of img for MDA is? And Where can I download?
Sorry for my very bad english.
There is no kitchen for XDA II ... you can modify the ext-rom as you need.
there are many posts here... but none answers the question of the topicstarter?
I have the same question. Is it possible to update only the radio stack and leave the rom and extended rom alone?
And if it is possible, will the update work without a cold reset?
thanks for your answers
calvin
radio stack only
yes you can upgrade the radio stack only. open the ROM upgrade with the radio stack you eant by unzipping it NOT running it. after unzipped, delete both the other nbf diles and leave only the radio stack nbf file in the directory. run himalaya upgrade from that directory. the first upgrade screen will tell you the radio version being replaced and not indicate any upgrade for the other two..
i have done this successfullly by leaving 1.72 alone and switching between 1.10, 1.12 and 1.14 radio stacks. a cold reboot is required, but a sprite backup of the 1.72 system with a 1.10 radio stack worked fine after restore to the 1.72 system with the 1.14 radio.
hope this helps.

Sorry form my junior question.
Can anyone share with us information on version 1.72 for XDA2: features, benefits, pros, cons... ?
Is worth upgrading from O2 1.60 ?
thanks
There are allready many threads on this.
But to conclude:
If you don't have any issues with your current version: stay with it.
You might consider 1.72 (the Qtek or iMate versions, NOT the T-Mobile beta) especially when:
1. You need certain Bluetooth options (ie serial port protocol) and don't want to mess around with hacks or extra 'tools'
2. Battery life is important
For me these points were enough to DO the upgrade (coming from 1.63 T-Mobile NL). And very happy with it.
Keep in mind that (unless you find a 1.72 from your own operator) you will have quite some work with getting all the customisations right.
One of these days I will post a good working set (no issues in a month holiday!!) of customisations to be used as a an extended rom for T-Mobile NL
i'm currently using the T-Mobile ROM v1.72WWE had no problem with it. the batt life was improved noticeably. I was using the O2 ROM v1.66WWE
as for my bluetooth i'm using the widcomm BT-PPC/PE v1.0.0 build 1400. no problems with it except that it turns off whenever i set my phone to standby mode.

i have a qtek 2020 with rom 1.66 and it is doing a lot of problem which version is better and where can i download it

many thanks to [Krueger] Dr. Stein, mamaich, itsme, edsub...
you are great man.
Most of the post regarding ROM Salads and customizations are beyond what I wish to perform on my device. To dat I have only loaded T-Mobile ROM upgrades that required nothing more than loading them automatically. I currently have the T-Mobile U7K Beta on my MDA II.
Can someone please explain the following:
1. Is there another T-Mobile 1.72 WWE available that I can load, non-beta?
2. I see other Custom ROMs on this site that state T-Mobile. Can I simply load those automatically or will I have to get into country ID, .nbf files, etc?
Ed
Official T-Mobile
Hi. Gratefuled
maybe this can help you : :?: :?:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11169
ajong,
Thanks for the link. I have looked at that page/thread, but I think what I want is still not available.
I'm looking for an official T-Mobile 1.72 ROM, si I can get rid of the 1.72 Beta, or I'm looking for someone's custom ROM that I can load just like I could an official one. In other wors the custom I suppose would be ok, but I do not want to mess around with opeing the ROM and disecting and changing certain settings. Like I say, it just may not be out there.

Sorry rontess, :?: :?:
I have no idea about your ROM (bootloader 1.06, am i alright??)
My friends in Jakarta said A LOT of problem about this device if upgrade to 1.72 ROM !!!
They want to sell it !!!
i hope you are lucky with your device.
maybe.. the others.. can help ???.
thank's
OK...from the beginning...
I managed to get an o2 xda 2,it is the first time I have ever seen a pda up close let alone owned one!!
The details for the device are:-
Model No: PH10B
Rom Ver: 1.03.00 usa
Rom Date: 09/24/03
Radio Ver: 1.05.12
Protocol Ver: 1337.12
Microsoft Pocket PC Ver: 420.1081 (Build 13100)
At present locked to O2 UK (I am in UK)
I want to primarily use this with Tomtom in the car.I installed TT 5.021 ok but could not get it (TT) to connect with my Holux slim.I guess that the pda is pretty much as was original,so could maybe benefit from an upgrade.
A member over at AVForums suggested this Forum,so here I am .
As you may appreciate,there are many very long threads on here,and after awhile,it makes my brain ache ,but I hope I have gleaned what is necessary.
Anyway,my proposed upgrade:-
1. Unlock with OLD xda2unlock
2. TOFCLOCK HIMA WM6 AKU.0.7.0
CE OS 5.2.1908 (Build 18508.0.7.0)
Radio Ver: 1.17 at the same time (put in same folder as Rom I believe)
3. Run Patched/Fixed/Updates
Fixed MMS Client or Patch If Already Installed:
Arcsoft MMS Client 4.2.8.1 (new Install)
http://rapidshare.com/files/54673552....8.1_Fixed.rar
MMS Patch1 (If you already install the packed one with picture issues, install and softreset)
http://rapidshare.com/files/54672723/MMS_Patch1.rar
New File Explorer (WM6 Explorer by dutty)
http://rapidshare.com/files/54679305/FileExplorer.rar
4. Install any Add-0ns.
Is this all I need to do?
Any particular order,or in the order I have written?
I didn't find much about bootloaders...does that need to be updated,and if so how and which one where?
If I have misunderstood,and there is more to do,points to watch out for or missed please advise...any and all help is much appreciated.
Many thanks for taking the time to read this...
.
not sure about your gps but if it's wired all you have to do may be
to disable auto recieve beams to free out that com port
there is no general issue with older roms and gps's
could just be a setup issue
Thanks,already done that.It's a B/Tooth Holux GPSlim 236,not wired.
My company has GMM and BBC as available methods for getting work mail. GMM fried my personal contacts and I had to uninstall it.
I'd like to run BBC instead but it seems from most of the posts here that I need to either roll back to an earlier ROM or upgrade to 6 or 6.1.
Is it possible for me to run BBC on my 8525 with the following features?
WM5
ROM version: 2.15.502.3
Radio version: 1.40.30.
Thanks guys!
