XDA 2i Rom Downgrade - Please Help! - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General

Hi
I have recently upgraded the ROM in my XDA 2i to the following versions:
ROM Version: 1.11.00 WWE
ROM Date: 01/27/05
Radio Version: 1.00.00
Protocol Version: 1337.39
ExtROM Version: 1.11.171 WWE
However, with this new ROM my GPS unit no linger functions correctly - the speaker on the XDA 2i becomes disabled and it recognizes the wired GPS unit as a full hands free unit which means that it also tries to connect to activesync which disrupts TomTom. I want to downgrade to the following ROM version:
ROM Version: 1.10.00 WWE
ROM Date: 12/24/04
Radio Version: 1.00.00
Protocol Version: 1337.39
ExtROM Version: (blank)
In other words the original ROM which the 2i was originally shipped with. Does anyone know where i can get this from?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as O2 have said: "We do not support any devices accessories for the XDA 2i and recommend that you contact the manufacturer" so at the moment i am stuck with a very unreliable XDA 2i which i am unable to use
Thanks

Similar Problem
I too have had the upgrade to 1.11.00 WWE installed on my XDAIIi and now cannot connect to the TOMTOM wired GPS device - i am going to try with a Bluetooth device tonight however I dont want to spend another 70 pounds on more hardware.
If someone has a copy of the previous ROM that would be great.

IMPORTANT UPDATE
I have noticed on the TOMTOM website that the Wired GPS device is not Supported by O2 XDA devices - not sure when this changed.
Link to TomTom supported devices on Wired GPS http://www.tomtom.com/products/features.php?ID=100
however the TomTom Bluetooth is still listed as supported by XDA.
I have just loaded the Pug ROM for O2 devices with radio 1.04 ftp://xda:[email protected]_v1.11.162_Radio_1.04_Camera_Fixed.rar
and will be able to advise whether this fixes it tomorrow. Keep an eye on this page

next update
OK so the Pug Rom does not enable the wired GPS reciever. - damn i am going to give a BT GPS device ago tonight. - i have a feeling if we installed version 3.x of navigator then upgrade to 5.x it may work as that is what i did orginially.

I use a wired Haicom HI-204E GPS receiver. and have had no trouble using several ROMs.
Originally my receiver was connected via cheap plugin charger with a ps2 socket for my GPS. Have my XDA2i sat in a TomTom cradle now with an adapter patch lead I made to connect receiver (RJ-11 to PS2f )
Been using PUGs Alpine_Ext-1.11.162_Radio-1.04_O2stuffstripped_Camera_Fixed
since mid Feb. 2006
GPS setup in TT as Other Cable NMEA GPS
TT version info
PocketPC device
App version 5.100 (5160)
Free RAM 40.2 mb
GPS driver v1.20
Map: Great-Britain-Map v562
Good luck

i havn't had any problems with any of the upgrades and i use a wired gps as well

I've fixed this problem by turning off the infrared beam in the settings, connections menu. Voila TomTom wired GPS working fine now using version 3.07 Tomtom with GPS 3.07 upgrade. Hope it helps all you others with similar problem after upgrade ?

i hope it does not work as I have just paid for a BT GPS reciever on E-bay and sold my wired one!! thanks to everyone who has conrributed to this thread.

Bluetooth handsfree help

Hi everyone,
I have been searching and reading through all the bt and headsets posts today with no result, my XDA IIi connects to the bt handsfree divices, but when calling are receiving a call there is only a small noise but I can not hear anything else. Can anyone help? I have two devices: a Vivanco BT65s and a Eagletec headsets and neither one works!
Thanks!
Rom version: 1.11.00 WWE
Radio version: 1.00.00
ExtRom version; 1,11,923 WWE
BT: Broadcomm 1.0.0 Buid 3900
Hi Bern,
Unsure whether you solved your prob already, but I'm running BCHS_FOR_POCKET_PC_OZONE.ARMV4.zip software, found in a magician thread, for more BT functionality and my BT earpiece works fine. Never tested it without this software so you can always give it a try.
Cheers, M
Can you do a link to where that file is please as I can not find it using the search function. Thanks
Nope,
Due to the limitations of PIE can't do it. It is in the first post of this thread though ;-)

Have fun, M

A Bluetooth connectivity problem

I have an Orange SPV M2000 (HTC Blue Angel) device. It will not connect to any bluetooth hands free car kit. (I even have problems pairing it with a bluetooth motorola headset) Having read some of the posts you guys all seem incredibly switched on so think this post may be misguided. However I think that I have tried everything!
ROM; 1.40.00, ROM date, 03/10/05,Operator version 5.40.1.179, Radio version 1.06.02, Protocol 1337.38, EXT ROM version 1.40.179 WWE.
Has anyone got any suggestions for a novice?
Have you installed tomtom6????
Ignore me, forgot I used the search option and so didnt look at the date!!!

Help: Bluetooth and pairing- Qtek 2020i

QTek 2020i
ROM Version: 1.11.00 WWE
Radio Verson: 1.04.00
Protocol Version: 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.11.162 WWE
Orig this was on Vodafone but after using pugs 162 updates it's showing o2 :wink:
My problem is with my pairing and GPS unit. The blue-tooth will see and show the device with a question mark over it to add it.
It will then pair with the device and connect to it, but when you go to the active connections, only the device shows in the outgoing connections.
The GPS unit is a RoyalTek 1000. It does work with my other phones, and BT USB device for laptop.
I don't know what else to try.

Tom Tom directions through car kit?

Help
I recently purchased a used Alpine (O2 XDA 2i) and loaded up Tom Tom 6 with the WE maps. Connected this to my Holux BT GPS unit and sat the unit in the THB Bury cradle and away I went. I know the THB unit suffers from echo with the 2i, but I already had a kit in the car and picked up the 2i cradle for £5 on ebay. Car is getting changed next month anyway.
Everything was working fine. Calls and Tom Tom through the car kit muting the radio as it goes. Excellent. Until..........
Upgraditis set in.
The Alpine still had the original O2 ROM and radio and I felt I was missing out on something. Also wanted to get rid of that hideous O2 active interface and settings as I am a T-Mobile user.
So far I have tried Pug's two ROM's, the iMate one, the current O2 1.11.171 and radio versions 1.00, 1.03 and 1.04.
I prefer Pug's ROM with the O2 stuff stipped out and the iMate one second.
However, after installing each of these ROM's, only the phone will come through the car kit. Tom Tom no longer works this way.
Is there something in the original O2 ROM that changes a setting or is there something else I have missed?
I am going to try loading the original O2 ROM (luckily I made a backup) and see if Tom Tom will work again.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
OK, I have gone back to the original O2 ROM from backup.
ROM Version: 1.11.00 WWE
ROM Date: 01/27/05
Radio Version: 1.00.00
Protocal Version: 1337.39
ExtROM version: 1.11.171 WWE
All sounds now play through the car kit including WMP and Tom Tom.
Should I just leave things as they are, or is there anything special about this ROM setup that the others are missing?
