http://t-mobile.iris-global.com/files/BA_TMUK_14200_112_11300_Ship.exe
Seems to have appeared as the FINAL offical release from t-mobile for uk users.
I've not tried it yet but the number does seem to suggest it is a slightly lower version than the Dutch one
EDIT MDAIIIUser
Added to wiki

no surprises
build of 2003se identical to Dutch rom previously released:
version 4.21.1088 (build 15159.2.6.4)
Extended rom just hasth changed regional settings (english UK default)

Added to wiki

Still a lot of echo.
Can't pair my Motorola HS820, BA sees the HS820, but error on connecting.
Anyone a fix for the echo and for the BT problem?
Use 1.40 before, was less a problem compaired to 1.42
Please help.

Report Back - T-Mobile Rom.. One week or so on..
Hi All,
Wanted to feedback my impressions of the new 1.42 T-Mobile UK Spec Rom..
Well, it's been interesting.. I now have (or have had) most of the faults that everyone else is experiencing.. I never used to get them at all with the i-mate 1.40 Rom or the NL 1.42 T-Mobile Rom.. I have listed the bugs below..
1 - One Hard-reset when inserted into GPS Car holder
2 - Several occasions where I've "lost" the Storage Card (when serching for it on the device AND through Active Sync)
3 - Interesting situation where I've started TomTom5 and I've suddenly had to go through the set-up process again only to be told that there's no maps (Can only attribute this to an occasion where the Storage Card is not seen by the PPC - See above).. Solved by remove Programs, soft-reset then re-install off SD Card.. (quite annoying as I was lost at the time!)
4 - Occasional failure for BT Headset being recognised on an in-coming call (I use the Logi-Tech Pro).. Solved by Soft-reset..
5 - Sometimes, after soft-reset, get a low performance from the Device.. ie, after soft-reset and switching to phone where it takes a few seconds to "build" the phone screen..
Strange but as I mentioned above, I don't recall getting these bugs on the 1.42 NL Rom or the i-mate 1.40 Rom.. I might try a hard re-set on Monday then re-install my tomTom, etc to see if it carries on.. If it does, I MIGHT switch back to the either :shock:
That's it really.. I have had the early T-Mobile 1.06, the i-mate 1.40, T-Mobile NL 1.42 and T-Mobile GB 1.42 and finally the WM5 Roms and from what I've seen, I place them in this order of preference..
1 - i-Mate 1.40
2 - T-Mobile NL 1.42
3 - T-Mobile GB 1.42
4 - WM5
5 - T-Mobile GB 1.06

Hi Max,
The Rom is exactly the same and the only difference is the changes in the extROM that makes it either UK or NL Spec (ie, MMS settings, etc)
Hi Starfish - Perhaps you need to look at this for the answers to your other questions:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueAngel_For_Beginners
Oh, and BA is "Blue Angel" and MA is the "Magician" HTC Names for the devices..

That's ok.. We all have to start somewhere.. 8)
Now, I'm not too sure how far advanced you are in Upgrading, etc but before you do, please remember the following that I put on another post on here..
MrPhilly said:
General Tips to you (and others)..
If you do want to update or upgrade then make sure you read everything through first.. Make sure you're happy in doing it.. Perhaps use the search function to read through others comments.. I would also recommend reading others comments about trying to downgrade from WM5 to WM2003SE to see what others have encountered
You will not believe the amount of people who end up posting questions when they've not followed the instructions from Wiki that I've pasted for you here..
Finally, if you are stuck, use the search command and describe your problem in the Keywords section, select Blue Angel from the Category and read through the posts relating to it before posting questions..
Hope this helps..?
Cheers!

How can I upgrade to a stable rom
I have tried the TMobile NL and UK version both give the Country ID eror with the extra numbers 17-17-38-38-38
How can I safely upgrade to the 1.42 version (I have read the Getting Started With The Blue Angel) .
Is that the way to go?

Upgraded to this from the last O2 update (my BA is an O2 Xda IIs), and while for the most part it works fine, now if the device turns the screen off for power-save while out and about, the GPRS connection drops. I know the hardware is capable of keeping the GPRS connection alive in such a situation because, well, it didn't drop it under the previous two O2 ROMs I ran.
Anyone else had this problem, or know a fix? Hopefully it's something simple that I've overlooked...
I'm getting better Bluetooth support with this (whether through actual improvements in the stack or through sheer dumb luck), so I'd prefer not to downgrade if I can avoid it.

Upgrade for NON OEM/Carrier Blue Angel
I have an unlocked OEM i-mate PDA2K. Because of this I am unable to install the T-Mobile upgrade to 1.42.
Is there a way to get around this?
I tried using the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe, but I was unsuccessful.
Any ideas on how to upgrade a non-T-mobile branded blue angel?
Thanks

problems upgrading a non-t-mobile branded PD2K
BELOW IS THE SCREENSHOT OF THE ERROR

Did you make sure you had the MAUpdate file in the same directory as the actual upgrade had been uncompressed into? Since it's missing the RUU.DLL file that is part of that package.
Basically, get the files out of the real upgrade, then copy the MAUpdate into that directory, then run it instead.

I can not unzip or unpackaged the shipped OS
When I double click on the file, it runs the file, when you right-click and select extract, it gives you an error.
How do you unpackage the ship package?

Me, I used WinZip, I think it was.

Can not unrar or unzip setup files from exe package
the instructions states:
Unrar or unzip all files in exe or rar into a new folder. I get an error when I do that.
I also noticed that the instructions states:
First Method (Quick/Easy) (TYPE II), but there is another method Second Method (Slower/Harder) (TYPE I)
I am going to give that a try

SX66 question

Hello all.
I just found this place and it's great!
I am in the USA and I have a Siemens SX66 with Cingular, running the default ROMS.
I've read there has been issues with with WM5 and others seem to not have any trouble.
What ROMs should I upgrade to?
From links here I also found: http://sx66-blueangel.home.comcast.net/
Are system ROM 1.40.00 and Radio ROM 1.13.00 my best options?
Thanks again, this is really a great site!

I personally would suggest applying the standard and extended ROM's from Chris' SX66 (Blue Angel) Standardization Project which you referenced, then upgrading the radio to 1.15. WM5 is cewl looking and the persistent storage can be a life saver. I go back and forth, probably more than 30 times, hoping that one day the speed and reliability will come through. Being a corporate geek / consultant that hates crackberries I dream of true push mail. However I'm so dependant on Microsoft Voice and my BT that I keep going back to WM 2003, Chris' ROM's being the best.
Best of luck to you in whichever way you go.
btw, Cingular is releasing the 8125 this month! YIPPEE !!!
(guess the wife will get my BA has a hand me down... )

SX66 (PH20B1) [Cingular]
ROM: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Ext ROM: 1.40.125 WME
Radio: 1.15.00

I recently upgraded to 1.42 with my own Extended Rom. Since then (probably two weeks ago), I haven't had to reset my phone for one-way sound, wifi not wanting to turn on, bluetooth insufficient driver memory or any of the other minor problems that forced me to reset my phone at least every other day with the 1.40 rom.
If you are going to try the upgrade, copy this extended rom to your device, then use the BA_TMNL_14200_115_11300_ship upgrade (delete all nbf files except nk.nbf). I was able to use the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe file to load this rom. I think I had to run it twice (first time it puts the device in bootloader mode but gives error, leave it in the bootloader mode and run it again.)
BTW, I had already upgraded to radio 1.15, so you might want to do that first.
Hmmm. FTP not working for me from work, I'll upload the ExtRom tonight and update this post.

Problems with WiFi (QTEK 9100)

Hi,
Ever since upgrading to 2.17 (official QTEK version) I can no longer get a stable WiFi connection - I get poor signal displayed even though I am next to the AP and it can take anything from 5 to 20 attempts to get connected.
The 9100 came with 1.6.7 installed which not perfect more or less connected first time, but I hoped the later ROMs would fix some other stability problems.
I have tried AKU 2.3 and I still get the same issues (plus I miss the battery indicator in the top bar).
Also, I cannot get back to 1.6.7 (I managed to get the OS back to it but the other 2 were stuck at 2.4) as every time I try I get vendor ID is wrong.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Taomyn

I have the same problem, but even worse. I see the network after connecting it says it is connected but I cannot browse or do anything on the "socalled Internet" DHCP says that it found an adress in my case at home 192.168.1.33.
I am not sure if an upgrade would help.
My wifi version is 01.04.10
I am looking for any idea too.

Just an update, though the problem remains.
I have downgraded the OS to 2.17 as it seems better than the later ones posted and is at least a QTEK one.
Still hit and miss with the WiFi
Does anyone know if there are any later QTEK ROMS available?

search this forum to find a solution to downgrade the rom version to 1.x then do CID unlock using aWizard.
or you should try upgrade to cingular 2.25WWE rom to see if there is any improvement.

I did try various of the downgrade tips but none seemed to work even though I've got a G3, so hopefully the LokiWiz will be updated soon to work on v2 ROMS.
The Cingular 2.25 ROM didn't work very well either and I hated the extra rubbish it comes with. The radio ROM I happen to be using was from that same one.
I suppose I could go for the 2.25 OS but not the Extension - would that leave behind the Cingular crap?

Thanks. I have now loaded the following but with the QTEK 2.17 Extension ROM:
IPL: 2.24
SPL: 2.24
GSM: 02.25.11
OS: 2.25.11.1
I will have to wait until tonight to try the wireless at home.
One thing I've noticed is that I don't have a battery indicator at all now, neither in the Today window or the bar at the top. I'll dig around more to see why this has happened.

it looks a little strange that you have a 2.25OS with 2.24IPL/SPL. :?
you could put a bat. icon on task bar by running Windows\Init_Tray.exe

Ok so I still can't get WiFi working :-( but at least I've sorted the the battery indicator out (thanks to a reg tweak for AKU2.2)
Which leads me to this AKU stuff. I keep reading about 2.3 but I'm not sure if this is an official release or something that someone has put together. I'm willing to give it a try but not if it's just 2.2 with some tweaks or something like that.
Can anyone shed some light on the AKU releases? Mine definitely says 2.2 at the moment.
Oh and can I simply create an upgrade file with just the 2.3 OS file in it?
TIA

Ok, my WiFi is still borked, it sees AP's all over the place but the ones I know it should connect to the phone just will not lock on to - it tries for a few seconds then simply says "Unavailable".
Currently I have on the phone a combination of:
IPL: 2.24
SPL: 2.24
GSM: 02.25.11
OS:2.24.10.1 WWE
Protocol: 4.1.13.12
ExtROM: 2.17.7.102
WM5 5.1.95 (14955.2.3.0)
I've actually tried what should have been a later OS, 2.25, but the AKU was 2.2 and the copyright message shows 2005 where as this one is AKU 2.3 with 2006 displayed.
I'm thinking now that perhaps the Extended ROM which is from the latest QTEK build I could find. Can anyone suggest a good replacement for it that doesn't have a load of baggage and only useful customisations?
As a last resort I'd like to try downgrading back to full 1.x ROM (QTEK 1.6.7 I think) but as I understand it this may not be possible. If it can be done, can anyone point me in the right direction i.e. which downgrade ROM to try? Yes, I have gone through this forum but it's almost "information overload" and very confusing,
TIA

if you update to shipped Cingular 2.25WWE rom, you can bypass all the extrom and see if wifi works normal (before you install other apps.)
Mine is ok.
the AKU2.3 one is a custom test rom which may cause slightly unstable.
while this still doesn't work, i think there's no means except sending your device back for checkup and repair.

Thanks, but how do I "bypass all the extrom"? Is there a clean extrom I can use with it?

Ok, I'm making progress.
I followed the instructions for downgrading, which although says it won't work for 2.21 or above, sort of does.
I downgraded to the custom 1.5.4 which succeeded but left SPL still at 2.24 but everything else had changed. I then ran the LokiWiz v0.2b and that seemed to succeed too at least there were no errors.
I then tested WiFi and it locked and connected first time - yay!!
Next I have taken the 1.6.7 QTEK ROM (which the phone originally had) and when that finished both IPL/SPL were downgraded to v1.x - WiFi still working.
At least now I know that WiFi is not borked but it's some strange ROM issue.
I'm going to try QTEK's 2.17 ROM and see what happens - at least I know I can get back to 1.x if it still doesn't work.
This is fun - not!!

after the RUU completed and restart automatically, after those init setting you must follow(eg. align screen, select time zone, etc.), at the moment when u see "customize within 3 seconds", poke the reset hole as quick as you can. Then you Bypass the extrom installation.

Thanks - you are being a great help, it's much appreciated.
I went back to 1.6.7 then added the Cingular 2.25 OS ROM but with the QTEK 2.17 extended ROM. What a mixture that is! WiFi would not work. I then hard reset and used your bypass technique - WiFi now works.
It seems that an extended ROM application is screwing up WiFi so I need to get everything up to the latest and greatest, bypass the extended ROM then one by one run them to see which is the culprit.
The plot thickens......

Well it looks like *any* v2 ROM screws up the WiFi on my phone and I have no idea why :x I have tried various combinations of ROM parts (proving the phone is most definitely CID unlocked :wink: ) and I either have no WiFi or some which progressively gets worse as time goes on to the point it stops connecting again.
I'm back to the original 1.6.7 QTEK WWE shipped ROM and WiFi works flawlessly but I'm now missing all the nice tweaks of v2 and I'm sure my BT headset doesn't work as well as before.
Maybe the next release will be better :?

Just to conclude this thread. The 2.26 ROM recently released seems to have cured my WiFi woes and it has made my phone run so much better than before.
I recommend it to anyone

Help Downgrading WM6 to WM5 Cingular 8125

Hi,
I have a Cingular 8125 phone, I upgraded it WM6 with one of the ROM that I downloaded from xda forums. I do NOT know which one that I downloaded. I remember downloading and installing one of the T-Mobile stuff, then flashing a new WM6 ROM from this forum. My phone locks up every time AFTER I receive/make a phone call. I would like to go back to stock WM5. I have no idea how this works, but it appears that I am running the risk of bricking my device if I do it wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Following is the details of what I have.
During BOOT it shows
T-Mobile Logo
IPL 3.08
SPL 3.08
GSM 2.25.11
OS 6.1.0.0
After boot,
About page says Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
Device Information page says,
ROM Version: 6.1.0.0 WWE
ROM Date: 1/16/08
Radio Version: 2.25.11
Protocol Version 4.1.13.12
Thanks,
JSenthil

no problem, just flash he original rom.
I have it, from mda t-mobile.
I think i have from cingular to, if you need it, let me know.

Isn't that I first have to downgrade my SPL/IPL to 2.xx in order for the original WM5 to work on my G3 wizard?
Can you please explain the steps involved? BTW, where can I find the original ROM, are you referring to the one that can be downloaded from the HTC website?
Thank you for your help,
JSenthil

Unfortunately I installed iPhone skin onto my Cingular 8125. I would like to revert process and get back my WM5, but I tried "hard reset" (Comm Mng + Voice buttons and poke reset with stylus) and nothing. Keeps going back to the iPhone skin. Few things do not work, still has scroll bar on side, connection and battery icons and no lock mode. Contact list feels like iPhone, but is not well developed, still has bugs and menus to la-la land.
Please help, I don't know much about WM5 or cell phones.
Thanks!
