So if you have comments, issues, problems, opinions or just plain questions about this upgrade, post them here.
great job dcs.
let me be the first to post and it's regarding Incoming MSG.
When i first got my unit from Philippines, it was loaded with 1.66WWE and with this version i was able to select preloaded or customized WAV as incoming SMS tone. But it went missing when i upgraded to Waxx's 1.72 and even now to the latest o2 UK 1.72. Anyone else experiencing this?

I have read the o2 blurb, but can other o2 uk user tell me, what do I really get from this upgrade that makes it worth all the hassle of resetting my device and re-installing all of the hardware please?

Personally, I find the performance to be improved and also stability. Also, when a call comes in, the Answer button on the dialog works, which didn't before. As part of the extended ROM, O2 have provided improved video streaming over GPRS plus video for MMS (I haven't used either yet). The OS itself has the Microsoft user update 2 included. Of course, the 181 release also has Blackberry included.

OK. Strange, but at least you are sorted
Edit: Maybe it is something in O2 Active that causes the problem? I have uninstalled it, so perhaps I am unaffected. Could other people with O2 Active still installed throw light on this?
msn
Hi, I have installed the new rom (1.72.187). Everything is ok but Messenger. I can surf web sites using gprs and wifi but i cant connect msn. I always get the same error. "Logon to MSN Messenger failed because the service temporarily unavailable." But i can connect with my laptop. Any idea? thanks....
dcs,
have you tried Battery Pack Pro v1.1.10 on this? The last time i used this with 1.66WWE, i keep getting total blackout on my XDA2 with Bluetooth light steady blue and i hard to perform hard-reset. since then i was afraid to try again.

Have you applied the latest patch from Microsoft? Take a look here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/msnmessenger/pocketpc.mspx
It does state that you cannot access the service unless it is applied. Quote: "Customers without the updated software will not have access to the Service until the download has been completed."

I also have identical experience using the Battery Pack Pro v1.1.10 on 1.60 WWE. Being scared to have a try on 1.72. Should anyone pioneer on this, please also let me know. Thanks
Blackberry?
I'm trying to understand what the benefits of having Blackberry are. The Blackberry website says you get all the stuff which I'm sure I already have with my XDA. Things like e-mail and IE. Except for my e-mail which is blocked by my ISP, Plus.net (I can only view/download e-mails, not send new ones).
What's the big improvement I'm supposed to get with Blackberry? :?

I am running v1.1.1 with no problems on the v1.72 Rom. Worked fine with 1.60 also but no experience of v1.66.
have already installed New ROM 1.72.187
in this ROM, i think it work faster than 1.60 but liked other 1.72 ROM from T-mobile.
In the Ext ROM ,it doesn't include some software such as GPRS monitor.
Now ,I desired to cook it.
More stable without question. Only thing that I have found is that the O2 logo can't be moved. Dam thing stuck in middle of title bar. BT Tools works ok. Better wapsupport for o2 active, though XDA seems to forget it's connected and will drop connection and reconnect when conecting to O2's wap service.
Still it's a worthwile update.
I am having problems with Fonix voice dial. When I adda voice tag I get an error that it cannot update, hard or soft reset doesnt help. Also if I restore my backup using the built in backup program I find that streaming video and blackberry programs both vanish from my xda 2.
Feed back
looking good so far. I have added all my apps including BPP 1.1.1 and everything works fine.
SRS now works as well whereas before it trashed my xda II
I am from Asia but installed this UK o2 ROM and found its totally working good.
However, one thing is the autoconfig function has gone.
Anyone knows how to get this from the previous AISA rom?
Blackberry Config
Anyone been successful with this yet?
Ive activated the install and the BB client tries to connect somewhere over GPRS, but eventually suspends itself.
Ive got access to our Corporate BES so should be able to get it working. However, there seems to be some mention in the ROM upgrade guide about a desktop client manager (needed on PC to download the policy).
Ive seen posts that say O2 is not making it availble until Jan 05 - anyone confirm?
Oh, and Im actually using Vodafone
hi everyone, I'm using O2 XDA Atom Pure, and the ROM is AKU 0.3 CHT(0.7CHT stable version hasn't release)
I have a problem, when I use pushmail, after serveral hours the actvieSync would stop and shows "Waiting for network", even though I press the "Sync" button, it still shows "Waiting for network", and mail also cannot be push to my cellphone.I have to soft reset to make activeSync work,but this problem still occurs after a period time.
I've already check my GPRS netwwork settings, it's all fine and setting are all correct,and I did not install any software that will affect ActiveSync,so anyone could help me to solve this problem? otherwise the pushmail function is not useful for me....

did you launch the hand writing pad (small) ad may I know which version you are using?

I'm using 0.3 CHT fixed By Jiggs,not dcoloane version.
I didn't launch small hand writing pad but in SIP menu, small hand writing pad is in the list, should I disable this hand writing pad?(how?)
I also see there is a dcoloane version which is made by you, but I found you write:"Sunglobe.ttf is used instead of mingliu.ac3, wince.nls is 1.5MB from CE-Star". I don't know if mingliu is instead by sunglobe will made system fonts unclear or not?

no it won't, I subsitide the font because I will receive Simplify Chinese SMS and it seems that sunglobe is a better font for both CHT & CHS.
The FIXED version had problems (unstability) on Active SYNC because of the SIP's not really PORT from the same version of the original ROM. Some SIP's are from AKU2.2 WM5 while some from dll's from other devices. The final one is one package get from WM5 AKU2.2 which should minize the impact on system stability. Although I still did not figure out why the small hand writing pad still causing problems. If you really want to use Push Mail often, i suggest you use back AKU2.2 or the final ROM by me, before flashing the new ROM, just use PCBckBackup your SMS, Contacts, Tasks and Calendar stuff to the SD Card. But if you don't want to flash again, Use only Chanjie as SIP instead of the HandWriting.
Well, although this post is pretty old...
I've always been having that problem. Even after some years I still can't tell the reason.
The solution I've been using since then is to restart ActiveSync on the phone using the task manager (which probably does the same than a complete soft reset, but is a lot faster).
Since I've upgraded my Diamond with a new firmware ActiveSync is displayed in the list of active tasks. Using another task manager I killed the process which still didn't help. In another post here I read that disconnecting your Gprs/3g connection might help. So it did.
Using Google you can find a lot of board posting from users with that problem. Noone has found a real solution and Microsoft doesn't seem to care about it.
What I am curious about is: Does your Exchange server have a dynamic IP?
Mine does. And PushMail is only active during the day. The daily disconnect of my provider is somewhen in the night. So when Active Sync starts again the following morning it's beeing confronted with another server ip. Maybe that's a possible reason?!
If my atom exec hangs frequently is it normal? been expriencing it since with the wm5 till now when i flash wm6 in. it hangs like... display icons without any link just the window flag.. unable to respond to screen taps, and once in a blue moon unable to power on with the power button.
I have the same problem with my Atom exec. However, it only hangs / freeze for about 1 minutes after I softreset the device, almost everytime like this.... so strange
Mine was doing some when it was WM5 but then I ported over to WM6 by Jiggs The Great followed by Chartreux and finally Abusalza. Since move over to WM6 I have never found a problem of freezing until and unless some third party software that I load causes it. You can check if it is a software that is creating the problem for u.

Try to turn it on and off and see if that will break it from "fake dead".
There are only two WM6 AtomExec ROM could be used for the moment.
Chartruex's ROM is extremely fast but freeze a lot. Abusalza' ROM is slower but seems more stable but still has "fake deads".
I hope they are still working on it. They are close to a very good ROM.

1. monitor the ram usage of the rom you are using,
2. better use pwrstat.exe (top mem & status bar...from any of my roms) to monitor.
ram too lower cause freezes...............

Yeah am having that same problem its WM 6.5 and I thinks a problem with the sms application it has its bugs and becouse of this problem I have lost alot of text messages from my friends and must soft rest just to get my device working again
i just go to
TOOLS -> XDA SHUTDOWN -> RESTART ON
And become OK
The same like me lost sms is not good.
I'm using 6.5.1 from bikertibi and don't have this problem. Of course when I have a ton of sms the application becomes slower but works nonetheless. Cleaning the sent messages and deleted items from time to time helps.
But i have little few sms and this bug appear
Your model is g3 or g4 ?
i have the same problem too wm6.5 bikertibi jamin g4
My is G4 too
Anyone with this problem but g3 ?
hello..
im having problem with mobile internet (O2) on my HD2. it started since first days when i get that internet for mobile. It works fine, but sometimes (too much freqentli) it just say that i cannot connect to the internet, I load page, lock mobile, and after some time (from 5 to 100+- minutes) suddenly internet doesnt work. In settings -> wireless control -> data connection, its turned off, and i cant turn it on coz it still saying that i dont have internet, it say something about GPRS. the only solution is soft reset
somethings about my HD2:
WM 6.5
OS version 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila version 2.5.19221619.0
ROM version 1.66.479.2 (76641) WWE
Radio version 2.07.51.22_2
Protocol version 15.32.50.07U
anybody know any possible solution? :/
Could be linked to receprtion, or congestion, best bet is to call O2 and get them to check it out before you worry about the phone
i dont think its caused by O2.. my brother had some samsung smartphone, and his connection was flawless, but a week ago he brought HD2 leo, and 2 days ago he came to me with problem like i have
