I have installed the T-mobile 1.72 Beta ROM update on my O2 XDA. Everything has installed just fine and it appears to be working great. The addition of the Fax module is really welcome although a little buggy has allowed me to send a number of faxes.
The BT stack now gives me an extra option on my Widcom BT software on my desktop pc. It seems much more stable than the O2 stack.
My only problem is that all my MMS, SMS, GPRS and WAP settings are for T-Mobile UK and not O2 Ireland. I have tried to enter them manually with little success.
After reading through some of the other threads would it be possible to take the relevant cab files from an O2 1.60 (latest ROM) Extended ROM and copy them onto my PDA and then run them to install the settings? I also miss the O2 Active screen and would like to install that as well. If this is possible could and please tell me that it is!!!! Would someone be kind enough to send me the relevant Cab files?
Many thanks in advance for any help or advice.

I think its posted on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8515
On page 2. There is a modified extendend rom.
Thanks for the mail
I have downloaded the extended ROM that you mentioned but it seems to just contain the T-Mobile stuff. I would like a copy of the O2 Extended ROM if possible and just install the O2 settings and Active.
Thanks

If you have an old backup, you can replace that with the new one you have now. And then runt the desired CAB files (Camera, mms, andsoon) from the new 1.72 upgrade.
Here you go mate...
Attached is a ZIP file, containing a folder.
In it, are ALL the O2 files found in an O2 Extended ROM, as per 1.60.00 ROM Upgrade, O2 WWE.
I am not sure exactly which CAB is the settings file (can anyone tell me what the GPRS settings file CAB is called in an extended ROM), so you will have to find it yourself.
It also includes the O2 Active stuff.
Hope it helps.
Download it quick, becuase I'm not sure the legalities of posting it here, and also its a big file, so using up a lot of my space, so I wanna delete it soon.
Thanks
Thanks Shadamehr
I downloaded the ROM ran the Cabs and I now have O2 connection settings and O2 active. Thank you so much.
My next project is to copy the o2 files to the extended 1.72 ROM so that if I require a hard reset it will install the O2 stuff and the newer 1.72 files etc.
Out of interest the application for unhiding and unlocking the Extended ROM requires the sending of "arguments" how do you do this on Pocket PC. i am familiar with doing this on a desktop PC. Any help would again be appreciated.
Thanks to you all.

Er, you've totally lost me mate.
For the Unlocker, all I do, is copy the cab file for it over to my XDA2, then use File Manager on the XDA2 to locate the file, and click to run.
This installs it.
Then, if you go into programs, there is a new folder, next to games, for the extRom tools.
Open that, and you can hide/unhide, and lock/unlock the extended ROM.
It sometimes requires a soft reboot.
When it is unlcoked and unhidden, you can simply delete all files in it, and copy the whole O2 folder contents into it that I posted.
Then, after a hard reset, it will install all the programs in the extended rom.
Not sure what all these 'argument' things are you mention mate, sorry.
Sorted!!!
Did not see the programme group had been using the application via the file explorer and it was asking for "arguments". Thanks for the help.

Dear Fellas,
Where can I get a step by step ROM upgrade instruction to upgrade/flash my XDA II into WM2003SE? I have been through the forum, but still can not find a basic guide to do the upgrade.
I have downloaded "Customized_WM2003SE_Asian_Edition_Version2.zip" from ZeroXtreme. What can I do with this file? How can I start it?
Anyone can help me pleaseeee.......Thanks a lot.
Rgds,

Ahoy there matey!
this is what you do:
1. decide on what version you want to use.
2. get them roms. (E.g. read through DCS's post on the ORIGINAL WMSE)
currently there are three versions of the WMSE namely 2.02,2.06, and 2.20.
3. check your device data for language and operator:
use getdevicedata.exe from the upgrade files, copy it to your device's windows directory, then tap on it.... it will produce a log file, copy the log file to your desktop pc, then use notepad.exe to view it.
look for the language setting e.g. WWE, CHT... etc.
look for operator settings e.g. O2, Qtek... etc.
now check your downloaded NK.nbf, MS.nbf and radio.nbf to see if they have the same settings as your device..... you can use ER2003edit.exe which can be downloaded from wiki.xda-developers.com.
if the files have the same settings, thats good... if not... change it so that they would be the same as your device.... better yet use DCS's batch file for easier conversion... (note, DCS's 2.02 rom is set to WWE,O2)
now... assuming you had made all the preparations... (language, operator settings, and that you have a complete set of roms e.g. NK.nbf, MS.nbf and radio.nbf)
put them all in one directory along with the other files that came with the upgrade package.
make sure you have a full battery before proceeding with the upgrade.
plug the charger to tha cradle and the cradle to the comnputer.
click on himalaya upgrade program.... then the program will run, put the device in the cradle and watch the screen for further instructions
goodluck...
be sure to read on DCS's post regarding upgrades for a more detailed info.
assuming everything goes well; during the upgrade do NOT take out the unit from the cradle; go watch tv or something...if you receive an error message; don't fret. the forum hosts a lot of topics on how to revive your unit...
and if your xda dies during the upgrade; make sure your tray tables are in their upright position, put your head between your legs and kiss your arse goodbye
what do guys suggest the ROM i use?
which one is the most stable?
mate, i noticed that you're from the philippines. i'm based in thailand i used the rom posted by zeroextreme; it's the wm2003 se asian rom. pretty stable that one; after upgrading my unit's power consumption improved noticeably. although as expected some apps may not display well when using landscape mode (those're the apps not designed for wm2003 use). but overall the rom upgrade was well worth it. stable and no hick ups; been using it for more than 2 weeks now i think.
others may have useful tips on the other roms they used for upgrading; not to mention experiences.
cheers
acid.... try 2.02.t1 they say its more stable than 2.06.
thanks mga kababayan!

Hi Z-Man,
Thanks for your response. But still do not understand in some areas
I just got MS.nbf and some *.CAB files from the extended ROM of ZeroXtreme. There are no NK.nbf and Radio.nbf. Is it because it's an Extended ROM? Where can I get the "non-extended" ROM?
And I don't really understand on DCS's post.
Sorry, I am really really newbie.....
Many thanks.
Rgds,
Fendie
ms.nbf is the extended ROM, you still need to get the radio.nbf and nk.nbf
download the file here:
HIMALAYA_WM2003SE.zip and Operator update.zip:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13588
extract all files to one directory... and add the ms.nbf that you have
you didnt mention the operator and languange settings of your device... check your device info....
then use DCS's batch file to convert the settings.... by default, DCS uses WWE and O2.
make sure all the nbf's are set to the same settings...
then begin upgrade
Himalya Romkitchen is still valid for SE
Here is a new rom from the still unreleased Cingular 8525: HTC Hermes (HERM100) branded from U.S. Operator Cingular.
ROM Version: 1.30.502.1
ROM Date: 08/21/06
Radio: 1.11.00.00
Protocol: 32.47.7018.00H
As always, download link on the wiki upgrading page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
If you have questions be sure to read the Hermes wiki first, specially the Upgrading FAQs.
Notes on this ROM:
* Cingular 8525 doesn't have front camera, you'll need to install cab files from other ExtROM to enable video calling (I used TyTN ExtROM on mine).
* Left button is mapped to push-to-talk application still unavailable on the rom, so it is unuseful. You can map it to any other APP using 3rd party software to remap hardware buttons.
Enjoy
if i upgrade to the cingular 8525 rom, will my tytn still be unlocked? or will it be locked to cingular?
It will still be unlocked. The network lock doesn't depend on the rom you're using.
Guys
Any ideas as to who/what website released this ROM?

What is the OS build?

OS 5.1.195 (Build 14955.2.3.0), so it's AKU 2.3 as all the other available ROMs until now.
i just installed the cingular 8525 rom! and now U CANT DO A LOCK IN ON GSM OR WCDMA MODE! (that menu been removed!)
i going back to the Imate rom!
Trying it now, thanks for the link! It also seems that the MMS limit is increased to 600K!

I am on the cingular rom, and my menu exists. Go to:
Settings -> Personal -> Phone -> Band -> Select your network type. The options are Auto, GSM and WCDMA.
If you don't have it by default probably it's on the ExtROM, as I said I installed the ExtROM from TyTN, try it.

Any comments as to the stability of this ROM on a TyTN?
Do we know what the different files in the EXT_ROM are for?

1) hard reset
2) do the usual alignment stuff, copy-paste, etc...
3) soft-reset before it starts installing the cingular ExtROM (customizations), you have 3 seconds
4) Unhide your extrom (you can also use fit4cat hermes tweaker for this)
5) Extract the contents of TyTN ExtROM to a folder in your miniSD card.
6) click on the CABs files you want to install, this is what I installed on mine:
From TyTN's ExtROM (on SD):
MT_Shortcut-MMS-Hermes.CAB
MP_mHub_060630.CAB
MT_PC_Hermes_Qtek_WWE_060621.CAB
P_Generic_UI.CAB
PP_3-AP-Patch.CAB
PP_ace-certs.CAB
VT_Engine_23818_ext.CAB
From Cingular's ExtROM (unhided):
MT_Shortcut-MMS-Hermes.CAB
T_mm1lib_DLL.CAB
MMS disapeared and I had to install the CAB 3 times, i used both from TyTN and from Cingular, then setup a default account settings and sent an MMS and received another (I sent it to myself from another mobile phone) and after that it stayed and no more problems with MMS.
I also installed the TyTN green theme (.tsk) because I like how it looks
Hope that helps.
Does the Cingular ROM or EXT_ROM contain the Cyberon VoiceDialer?
(I hope not!)
Yes, it's on the ROM but it's not mapped to any hardware button.
interesting.. BAND selection tab (GSM/UMTS/AUTO) is present in the ROM if Cingular extended ROM is not installed. it is being removed during Extended ROM installation procedure. more over, none of this Cingular CAB files are responsible for removing BAND selection (GSM/UMTS/AUTO) tab.
I have skipped Extened ROM installation, verified that BAND selection (GSM/UMTS/AUTO) band selector is still present and then installed all Cingular extended ROM cab files one by one. supprisingly enough - band selector is still there. there must be some other invisible configuration file in the extended rom. gprs connection is not auto configured either.
@superduper: probably you need to soft reset for the changes made by cab files to take effect. If you want to know which cab file disables it you have to install one, soft-reset, install another one, soft-reset and so on...
never mind

UPDATE: phone settings.reg file is attache to this message. one needs simply import this file into device registry. no soft reset is required.
P.S. It would be goos if fit4cat will add this feature to his hermes tweaker.
Great finding
Guys, is Cing Video now activated and available as an option?
Thanks.
Is it me or does the ExtROM Unlocker only unhide the Extended ROM on this build - leaving it still read-only / protected?
I tried with fit4cat and the Hermes MountExtROM.cab but no luck modifing contents.
In P3600 software update space, in the HTC Europe website, yuo can download a configurator, easy to use, to set up ANY mobile operator in all european counties supported. Internet, Wap, MMS, ...
It works not only for P3600 but also with my HTC S620, TyTN WM6 black 2.0 edition!

Thanks man, I'll give this a go next time I flash
Thanks for the link man ...hope they will include my country in next version...

Could anyone who tries it for Orange UK confirm if it works.
I jut ran it quickly but only had time for a quick look. Initially seemed OK for internet but PIE would not connect (said connection error) - ran out of time and so reran the cab I use for settings (rabdos original cab I think) and then the connection worked.
Might look at it again later.

This is a "must have" for all of me that test every new ROM
Edit: Tried with Orange Spain, but dosn't work as expected. Adds Orange GPRS, WAP and MMS entries in Conecctions, but left blank access point name and Username and pass, so the connectcion fails.
Anyone have the same issue?
Thanks.
Edit2: This is the CAB modified with correct settings for Orange Spain.

I Recieved An MMS Message And Synced My Hermes With An Exchange Server Over GPRS/3G. So Don't Know What Went On With Your Connection.

Great H3GSweden worked also, thanks.
Great tool but....
when i install the configuration for germany and i also want this for austria, the german will be overwritten when i install the austrian configuration.
when i travel beetween three countrys this is not good because i take not every time my notebook with me.
Now is time for developers to convert in a PPC application all configuration files!
You have all the info's
cool thanks a lot dude
@heimerdinger.
Don't Quote Me On This One But, If You Dont Connect Your Hermes To Your PC And Then Run This Installer For The Language You Want. The Cab File That You Tried To Install Gets Saved To A Temp Folder To Be Installed The Next Time You Connect Your Device.
So Install The German And Austrian Languages Without Connecting Your Hermes, Then Search For The Cab Files. Copy Them Onto Your Device Then You Just Run Them When You Swap Between Countries.
Someone Please Correct Me If Im Wrong
Cheers
The Cab Files From The UK Installer Have Been Extracted You Can Download Them From This Thread

You execute the installation sofware without phone connected, and get a message that says "next time you connect your phone, the soft installs". Before click in OK, search in Temp folder for the CAB. You will find it.
If you click OK, the installation software deletes the CAB.

Need some advice folks. Currently on an assignment in Australia and have just upgraded my Cingular 8125 to a Dopod 838 Pro. I'm with Telstra. Problem is any time I reboot the phone, the Network Wizard executes and errors out. Fine. I manually load Network settings but then i find out a couple of hours later that my manual settings have just disappeared.
I've scoured this site and see that I can do a variety of things, including loading the latest JasJam ROM. Regardless, whats the issue and short of doing a ROM upgrade (did plenty on my 8125, so it doesnt frighten me) what can i do?
Please advise.

Theres a file on DopodAsia's wedsite for Tesltra users, it enables newer settings. You put it in your MyDocs folder on the Dopod, and basically boot up. It uses the file, updates Network Wizard and will work properly. Its due to Tesltra's codes changing and the launch of NextG.

You wont be able to get these files unless you have a dopod serial to register with. I would suggest maybe you flash the newest telstra rom instead of the 838

installs other stuff so beware like a proxy changes ie default and wap. all can be undone but gives u ur settings.
just saw this...
after my last post maybe helps u

it is ur device and australia specific.
Thanks folks for so many rapid responses... I was able to get the Network Wizard "fix" from Dopod's Australian service center yesterday. Unfortunately, I purchased the phone from ebay and the previous owner had already registered the serial number, so it's not letting me re-register. I've called Dopod directly to proces my registration, but they've not called me back yet.
simon_darley: will that .cab file set all the required settings on WM6? (I am considering upgrading to WM6, and a Cab file with all the Telstra settings would be nice and easy)
Does it add any of the Telstra software?
telstra aust cabs
the previous cab was the old one from the original rom released when the phone was sold and was incomplete so far as mms and other settings.
attached here is the latest from a new imate rom compulsory for telstra users and in conjunction with telstra proposed phone/data upgrade of their system should work more effectively.
i also use the telstra recommended imate radio upgrade 1.38.30.1 i think it is.
all of which runs perfectly now on wm6 including the wm6 media streaming which imate wm5 requires pvplayer as ms didnt release media streaming until wmK.
so now it works perfectly with foxtel video streaming and in 2 wks should allow simultaneous voice data connectivity which the telstra hw upgrade shouldfix for us.
i also include the my place cab which allows foxtel and videos to stream without using the download mb limits. so if u access foxtel via my place over next g it doesnt count towards the mb usage.
i have all the cabs from the upgrade and post them here for what i used only but in reality u may only need 1 or 2. i have all but installed only 5.
the ext rom in full is on xda dev if u want to download. i dont really know wot the other 3 do so installed and didnt cause any harm.
