Guys,
I have successfully unlocked my SPV M1000 to use an 02 SIM.
I have also upgraded the ROM version to 2003SE.
I would like all the original 02 logos and stuff on my phone, and will be using a 02 Contract SIM.
Does anyone have the extended rom for this (UK)
Thanks in advance

I have a Uk 02 XDA2 and have accidentally flashed it with an I-Mate Radio Stack, OS and Extended Rom,
The only rom I can find is the Asia Rom, is it safe for me to use this rom on my XDA2, will I get any problems.
Will it return my XDA2 to a normal spec UK 02 XDA2? or will it still be different?
I can dump my O2 extened rom back to it to get the O2 settings. because i back that bit up before wipeing the rest.
What you meant by "Asia ROM"? Where did you get it?
Someone PM it to me?
I thinks its for XDA 2 but not sure?
Hey guys,
I'm getting a XDA II (latest o2 UK update) and I will be using it with an Orange sim.
Which rom is the best to have for me?
I saw the new iMate rom was released.
o2 is installed now but I don't need any o2 stuff as I will be using it on Orange.
What do you guys think?
Keep the o2 rom or upgrade to another? (QTek, iMate, etc)
Cheers
I have an M1000 (Orange's XDA2) and thats running v1.60, the latest one you can download from the O2 site. I'd guess use that on your XDA 2 and you shouldn't have any problems
Hey m8,
Thanks for the reply.
You have a m1000 running the o2 rom?
Didn't you have an Orange m1000 rom?
If you still have the m1000 rom could you post it?
Cheers
Moogled,
What improvements do you see using the 1.60 ROM ?
I have an M1000 with the original (English Language) 1.52 ROM.
Using a couple of tools, I have GPRS always on and my TomTom 2 is working perfectly.
I don't feel that I am missing anything, and since the upgrade would void the waranty from Orange, I am holding back upgrading..
Regards
Michael
Plz share your 1.60 rom for the M1000. I'm having an Orange M1000 (with the 1.52 rom), and would very much like to hear from anyone having upgraded this model.
Anyone gonna help me out with this one?
Thanks
Panja
No one....?
I simply used a standard UK version (it WAS actually the USA ROM when it arrived), of the XDA2, with my Orange UK SIM.
Works fine.
Since then I have upgraded to the latest UK O2 ROM upgrade - again no problem.
I have also done a lengthy post on here as to all the Orange settings ou need for the phone.
Hello, First of all i wanted to tell you guys that i really appreciate the things you are doing for the community and i hope i can help a bit 2.
I have a T-Mobile MDAII which i want to upgrade. I have seen the "today screen" of O2 and i really love it. I have some questions though about the upgrading.
- When i make a backup using XDATools can i safely restore it?
- Does it matter if my phone is still sim locked?
- Do i need the t_mobile to 02 rom update or can i just upload a new 02 rom?
- Using romkitchen, i have built a rom with "4.00.16 ENG T-Mobile US" Is this better then an O2 rom upgrade?
Does somebody have the latest upgrades for me?
- Radio stack upgrade
- Rom upgrade
Thanx

I'm sorry, that i can't help you concernig to you other questions, but i only use the xda I device, but the cooked 4.00.16 ROM from the kitchen is useless for you. These Roms, out of the official kitchens are specified for the XDA I / MDA I /QTEK1010 device. But you have an xda II....

Not sure about XDA Tools, but if this is for the XDA, not XDA II or MDA II, then it does not apply. Last item N/A also.
Yes I believe it would matter if your phone was locked, but cannot confirm.
You will need the cooked ROM, t_mobile to 02 rom update . Otherwise, you will run into the country error issue.
I also have an MDA II, and I would like to use this upgrade also, but I have been reluctant to use a custom ROM or hack, because I'm certain that my device's warranty wouldl be voided if I do so. I also understand that going back to a ROM or downgrading to a ROM may be problematic.
If you elect to install it let me know how you like the O2 Rom.
Wanting to know if it was possible to remove all the 02 crap from the extended rom witout using er2003edit, as i use the phone outside UK
TIA

Very simple.

Ok bascially my hd2 is locked to 02 and has an 02 rom (i.e. Displays "02" when booting) but I want to update it to the generic official rom and not the official 02 rom (long story)
I know my phone will remain locked on 02 but can I go to a generic rom without risk of bricking or is there some sort of security in place that means the phone has to have an 02 or a cooked rom installed?
Thanks

Follow the process A,B and C
That will get you to the stock 3.14 ROM.
I used the 2GB microSD card which came with the phone and the CID was the one mentioned in B.O.2 so I was able to do it for free.
When you say "locked on O2" have you tried other sims? I've been with O2 for years and never been locked to them, I often use an orange PAYG sim for Orange Wednesdays and I've used a friend's Voda sim to test something before too.
Tyvm that is the anwser I was looking for

If your O2 phone is running ROM version 1.48 or 1.72, then you can simply run HSPL2 then flash HTC stock ROM 1.66WWE. 1.66 is the same as 1.72 without the guff.

Well if O2 are anything like T-Mobile UK, then there is their Web'n'Walk software. It doesn't take 3+ months to bring out the 1.72 ROM based on the 1.66 ROM without some major mucking about.

Ah thankfully the O2 ROMs are very clean, and in my experience stable.
Other than the O2 APN settings app, and the O2 splash screen before the horrible orange MS one, that's about it.
