Hi notepad, I supposed the cab even installed on ROM other than the official ROM (radio and ms) will not work. This is because RIM checks on the use of right version before it allows the connection to go through. This is the case even for XDAII (which will only work for 1.72)
I have upgraded entirely to their O2 UK version and BB is working perfectly fine for my XDAIIi now in Singapore.

Yah, I am using the Offical 1.40 from 02 Asia version with radio ROM 1.12, the device is able to generate my PIN, so it is more that sufficient to subscribe the service right.

Perhaps I was not clear enough in my previous mail. Blackberry Connect should only work with the version it is released together with and no just any official O2 release. This was the case for XDAII.
In this case for XDAIIs, the version should be v1.40.237. Well, in any case, it's worth a try. No harm done right? Good luck!

actually the 1.40.xxx at the back is the extended ROM function, the core ROM is 1.40. I believe that as long as you use 1.12 ROM it should be ok.
My Device Info are
ROM: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM Date: 03/10/05
Radio Version: 1.12.00
Protocol Version: 1.337.42
ExtROM Version: 1.40.923 WWE
What about yours?

would someone be kind enough to post the link to the blackberry cab file. Either I'm being stupid or I'm experiencing problems with my XDA Exec.
Thanks

The cab i put on the ftp was for XDA IIs and XDA IIi, I would be very surprised if it would work on Exec.
Log into the ftp with xda as both username and password and go to uploads/blueangel and you will find it there.

I'm no techie but I'm interested to upgrade my XDAiis with blackberry capabilities. Can you teach me please? I tried accessing the FTP site but no can do. Appreciate any assistance.
Thanks.

BB Clients for WM5 are currently being tested by various providers such as O2. Only a matter of time now before they will come out. My hunch is around the end of 2005, early 2006

Which is the right cab?
Hi,
I've browsed around /BlueAngel and found two BBConnect cabs. The English version is 1.2 and doesn't generate a PIN. The other version is German 2.0 which does generate PIN.
Is this the version that we uploaded? As I don't understand German, can you please upload the Cab again?
Thanks so much.

I had problems with the installing of the BB service file when I upgraded my Radio ROM from 1.12.00 to 1.13.00, so i down graded again,

I could be wrong but...
I don't think anybody ever got this to work on anything other than the standard T-Mobile or O2 phones.
It's a lost cause -- I wasted countless hours on it, and I hope I save you from doing the same...

Thanks for the tip... Not too surprised as not many people claim to have got it working. Wanted to "repeat" Notepad's "success" since I'm also in Singapore.
Actually, I tried the German version last night. But SingTel's BB registration page rejected the PIN and IMEI I gave it.

Yeah, right.
An unofficial ROM is available from the Warranty centre, on which thousands of people rely on for support.
That's kinda like saying that Microsoft have released Longhorn as it is now (bugs and all) and are supporting it anyway! :roll:
Hmmm... Appearently, they DID have the 1.31 ROM at the service center, but the place I went to is only a collection point and they need to send the unit over to the workshop to have it flash, and they said FIVE days!!!
And after chatting with the rep there, the only difference between O2's 1.31 ROM and the launch ROM is the BT patch! Leochan2005 in this forum already has the 1.31 ROM and looking at the info he has posted... It does look like it's only the BT patch.. Why on earth would O2 change the ROM version to 1.31 if it's only the BT patch????????
Here's Leochan2005 ROM info...
ROM: 1.31.00 WWE
ROM Date: 31 Dec 2004
Radio Version: 1.02.00
Protocol Version: 1.337.32
ExROM version 1.31.920 WWE
Sorry for late reply: My 1.31 version, the bluetooth version is 1.0.0 Build 3500.
It detects bluetooth device much faster than my XDAII
But do not know why the radio rom is still 1.02, and do not know whether I can only update this radio rom into more latest version
I remembered that I bought my machine on 27 or 28 Dec 2004, do not know why the rom date is 31 Dec 2004

You can update only radio ROM. To do this backup your device, download official ROM update, extract it with WinRar into any directory, delete files ms_.nbf and nk.nbf. Then enter bootloader, place your device into cradle and run BaUpgradeUt.exe. This would update only radio ROM.
Can you dump your ROM to SD-card and upload to XDA-developers FTP? You may use this tool: http://mamaich.kasone.com/imate/ROMDump.rar
To use it copy ARMV4Rel\ROMDump.exe to your device and run it. It would create a 64-mb file on your SD-card.
And can you also make a copy of your extended ROM? The easiest way to do this is to install TotalCommander on your device, open directory "\extended_rom\" (without quotes, you have to type its name manually, it is hidden) and copy its contents somewhere.
RE
Is this ROM meant for the XDA II? What does it contain? WM2003SE, WMP 10, landscape mode support...?
:roll:
so any1 putting this rom up for downloading?
Dear all
Can you tell me how can I dowload the rom update in order to update my radio rom?
Also, if failure during update, can I revert back to the rom backup in the SD card using the method mentioned above? Can you tell me how to do this?
Dear all
By the way, can I use the radio rom from XDAII for my XDAIIs as I understand XDAIIs is a 4 brand radio but XDAII is only a 3 brand?

I heard at the CEBit conference in Las Vegas, i-mate released a BT patch that did that.
There exists an official 1.31 English ROM upgrade. It is called i-mate_PDA2k_Arabic_13100_112_10600_SHIP.exe and can be downloaded from Imate site. After installation you should edit extended ROM and remove unnecessary arabisation and operator customisations. With this method I've updated my device to:
Rom: 1.31.00 WWE
Radio: 1.06.02
Extrom: 1.31.112 (cooked)

Upgrade for my XDA IIs from Singapore

Hi,
Little intro..New O2 convert here. Was a P910 user.
I was wondering whether I could get an upgrade as I have been getting these glitches:
1) Caller ID photos is unstable.. i.e. occasionally shows caller photos..
2) Hangs occasionally
My version:
ROM version: 1.12.62 WWE
ROM date: 10/04/04
Radio Version: 1.02.00
Protocol version: 1337.32
ExtROM Version: 1.12.925 WWE
Can anybody help me?????
Well, it seems that we're a little bit out of luck. The official upgrade from O2 is still for UK region only, Asian upgrade probably not that long on the road, just be patient for a while (although I'm starting to get annoyed myself with all this unstability :? )
Hangs occasionally? Mine restarts itself occasionally...
Upgrade of CAller ID software??
Is it possible to upgrade the Caller ID software I have now to a "stable" one? I am having the version 1.17..

I have a Asia IIs and just came back from service center. They upgrade the ROM for me (I didn't ask for it).
Here is what I got
ROM Version: 1.31.00 WWE
ROM Date: 12/13/04
Radio version: 1.02.00
Protocol version: 1337.32
ExtROM version: 1.31.920 WWE
Hangs occasionally? Restarts itself occasionally? Mine hard reset itself occasionally...
Same here
I'm also having the auto hard problem, after sending to O2 service centre the same problem happened again...
They claimed that is a 3rd party software problem.
Yatlee,
Is it possible for you to upload your latest ROM and extended ROM as I have an O2 Hongkong XDAIIs and can probable use yours since O2 UK ROM does not work.
"Is it possible for you to upload your latest ROM and extended ROM as I have an O2 Hongkong XDAIIs and can probable use yours since O2 UK ROM does not work."
How to do it?
Well, My story goes like this: I came to this website which is great resource. Like many others here, I tried using some of the upgrade posted here. I was very careful and just want to try out the radio upgrade, but not the other ROM, ext-ROM stuff. I upgraded to 1.06.02 from the FTP server. My unit was stable before the upgrade. After the upgrade, I got constant call (out or receive) without sound. I had to soft reset to have the unit go back to normal. Even after I went back to 1.02 (again download thru FTP server), I had the same problem.
I called O2 support. They said it's external software problem. Of course, I did tell them I flash the Radio ROM myself. I was about to give up my XDA all together. I sent it into the repair center. When I picked up the unit, they said everything is normal, but they upgrade the firmware. So far, after two days without soft reseting, my unit is still stable and no more call without sound. I swear I will not tinker any new firmware unless it is release for Asia O2 XDA IIs. It's too much pain.
Another thing, the FW I got does not have O2 active which has reported to be a piece of trash anyway.
Upgraded BT to 3900
I'm also wary of updating my unit with ROM that's designed for other countries. That's why I'm waiting patiently for the ROM update for my unit which I bought in Malaysia.
The only thing I've messed with is upgrade my BT from 3500 to 3900. I did that because I couldn't get my Sony HBH-660 headset to connect. Since I updated BT, my headset works properly now albeit with a few hiccups.
hi yatlee,
may i know what're the rom specs u have right now?
Excellent upgrade for me!
I'm from Malaysia and recently has bought an XDA IIs with the 1.31.00 WWE ROM (Rom Date: 13 Dis,2004), Radio Version 1.02.00, Protocol 1337.39, Bluetooth BT-PPC/PE Version 1.0.0 Build 3500, and extROM 1.31.920 WWE. My unit always hang from time to time aspecially when I put various kind of softwares on it. But 3 days ago I've upgraded it as below:
1. Radio ROM: 1.02.00 WWE to 1.08.00 WWE
2. Caller ID: 1.17 to 1.20
3. MMS Composer: 2.0.0.13 to 2.0.0.16
4. ClearVue: 2.4.381 to 2.4.386
Outcomes:
1. It doesn't hang anymore (3 days of uses).
2. Good network signal reception
3. Faster respond.
Now I'm waiting for better ones.
The Radio ROM is downloaded from xda-developers.com ftp with the name KPN_Rom QTEK 9090 Radio 1.0.8.
Sorry for bad English.
My specs...
I've also updated the RADIO with the KPN version. I found out later it's only an upgrade for the GSM module.
Can somebody post this asian xdaIIs ROM here????
Thanks very much in advance.
Cheers,

Dear Wiki,
I downloaded the rom, and I extracted it. I following the instructions. I got the country ID error after run BaUpgradeUt.exe.
I tried to use xda3nbftool.exe to fix the rom, but still get the wrong password warning.
I tried to use xda3nbftool -t ms_.nbf > password.txt to get the password, but still get the same message, wrong password.

Need the Original ROM for O2 XDA IIs (Asia)

Does anybody has the original ROM that shipped with O2 XDA IIs from O2 Asia? I tried to search through this web site but I couldn't find the original one. I found only the upgraded one. I already contact O2asia but they refused to give it to me.
Depends what you mean by "Original" The following link will have the latest official ROM for the O2 XDA IIs, but if you are after an earlier version then you may have a problem.

Something wrong after upgrade to the latest ROM
Yep, the one that I need is the original one that comes with the phone. So, it's the earlier version, not the latest upgrade.
The reason why I need the ROM is because after I upgrade to the latest one (posted on the MWG, SeeO2, or here), my phone stop working in my office which located in a basement. It used to work fine before upgraded. BTW, it works OK in most places.
So far, I have tried to upgrade/downgrade the radio ROM. I tried almost all of them, 1.02.00, 1.06.00, 1.08.00, 1.10.00, 1.12.00, 1.13.00, and 1.15.00. No luck, they gave me the same result, no signal in my office. Today, I compared my phone and the other phone under the same carrier (cingular/AT&T). My phone kept saying "No Signal", but the other have almost full signal strenght. I can use the other phone to call without any problem. I did try to soft reset but it still couldn't find the network (no signal).
That's why I would like to try the original ROM that I used to have before I upgraded. Just want to make sure that the latest updated ROM is not the cause of my problem. For the original ROM, I think it should be as follows:
CE Image Version: 1.31.00
Extended Image Version. 1.31.920
Radio Image Version 1.02.00
Or if you have any suggestions, please let me know. I willing to try everything just to make this phone work in the most important place for me...my office.

Hi Guys,
Sorry to be a royal pain, but I have bought myself an o2 XDA III phone and I'm looking for the latest o2 rom for it which is Xda_IIi_LaunchROM_v1.10.124.exe, all the links I have found no longer host the file
Does anyone have it that could upload it to the FTP site? or if not, does anyone know what the most upto date cooked/beta rom is? I updated my BlueAngel with 6.5 rom, but I didn't want to just assume it would work on my XDA IIi.
So if there is someone out there that could save me some time, your help would be really appreciated.
