Hi,
I am a Filipino and I have an XDA II with
ROM version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM date: 02/20/04
Radio Version: 1.08.00
Protocol version: 1337.18
ExtROM version: 1.66.165
Can I upgrade my ROM to version 1.72?
What file shall I use?
How do I upgrade?
Will upgrading affect my settings with the service provider, GLOBE
TELECOMS?
Shall I wait for O2 to release their updated ROM for Asia?
Please help me. I always get an unexpected hard reset(my fon won't turn on). What is the best option?
THANX!
yes you can... its up to you if you want to wait for the official O2 release, or if the hard reset keeps on bugging you, you can upgrade it using the official IMATE release... but you should save the provider settings and all.. or either that, or call up your operator for the GPRS settings.
just follow this thread...

Thanx Waxx! I'll try it tom. I hope it will solve the hard reset bug that I've been reading and experiencing. I've noticed that most of us who get unexpected hard resets have ROM ver 1.66WWE. O2 is really unfair for being silent on this topic.
One last question, what will the O2.cab do? Just restore the O2 startup screen? Will the new ROM 1.72 have "autoconfig" program? Can I use autoconfig to setup GPRS and Internet?
Thanx again!
im not familiar with congfiguration... because mine didnt have the auto configuration.. im thinking that youre referring to auto configuration for the asian ROMs for the settings?? if that is so, then im afraid that upon upgrading, you wont have the autoconfiguration option. this is because you are upgrading your ROM with an imate 1.72 (another provider) and it is based on UK.. so i guess no asian autoconfig. if ever there would be an autoconfig button, im sure it would be of the european providers. but i really dont see an autoconfig button.
as always exercise extreme caution when upgrading...when you put in the 1.72 rom downgrading will be difficult...beware :shock: :shock: beware :shock: you might end up having more than you bargained for. :wink:
regarding the hard resets; you may want to perform another hard reset but don't install any programs / apps. run the unit as it is; "naked" and without any new stuff installed. if the phone still hangs then go for the upgrade. if not; well as the thread says it's your choice :wink:
cheers
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

1.72 ROM
i have 'salad rom' with asian flavour(Included 'auto configuration' & 'o2 connect) and happy with it.
rom 1.72WWE, radio 1.17, ext.rom 1.72.900 (main rom by Qteq, radio by T-mobile, ext.rom by edsubsoft).
untill now ;
phone, gprs, activesync, run program, MS BT stack, sms, mms ........are running well. (maybe i am lucky with it)
keep to my salad untill SE come out.
---------------
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?

Official T-Mobile
Hi. Gratefuled
maybe this can help you : :?: :?:

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.

You should really search for the postings here. DCS has done a great job in putting down his painstaking effort in upgrading the ROMs.
I have merely put all the related postings in a common area so that lazy me can get it all in one area.... :wink:

hi mates,
just one question, is it possible to downgrade the radio? to flash my OS only i use the shelltool. btw, there is no way to use a original T-Mobile RUU since it will only accept the latest ROM (including Radio 2.69). I need a downgrade to 2.19 or whatsoever because of that "missed call" issue appearing with the latest WM6 versions.
cheers and regards

You may try Wizard Love ROM, it is also safe for G4.
thanks, any other solution? since i really love one of these newer OS builds.
cheers

my atom life running wm6.1 doesn't support CodeWalletPro for installing, why??
anybody have new version of CodeWalletPro that wm6.1?
because i need to restore my previous codewallet's data, thank you!
Not sure what version of CodeWallet you own, but only the current 6.62 version of CodeWallet will work on a WM6 device. You may need to upgrade.
