Have you tried installing this upgrade? Anybody may be?

downloading it now with a view to installing.

Am uploading it to the Shipped Complete Roms folder - will let you know once done.
Havent installed it yet as downloading from the posted site took an age and a half.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Shipped Complete Updates/Xda_IIs_v131139_upgrade/
Uploaded here now guys and installing.

Hi guys,
Quick Q - is there anything to gain for us allready on:
CE image Version: 1.31.00
Extended image Version: 1.31.139 WW
Radio image Version: 1.06.02
As provided stock in the newest batches of the XDA2s's?
How do I tell my bluetooth stack version?
Rich

So far - everything seems to be ok.
Its built 3500 on bluetooth - havent done much calling yet as I've had other work to do.
One thing I have noticed is that the clock has disappeared from the top of the today screen after I turned the unit on once reflashed.
Would be interested to find out if this has happened on other units.
The positioning of the O2 icon has also changed, but it doesnt now throw up the menu of active connections.
Also it gets in the way of window titles too.

try this to restore the clock, from tekguru
go into hklm\software\microsoft\shell
create a new dword called "TBOpt" and give it value 3.. soft reset.
0 = no time or date
1 = time
2 = date
3 = both

The new O2 icon in the start bar can be moved to suit.
Click and hold the icon - a window appears with a slider - you can use this to reposition the icon.
Nice
This method also opens the active connections list.

Has anyone tried the installation on a non UK XDAIIs especially an Asian XDAIIs?

I have the same type of question...my XDA IIs is from HK...will this ROM be the same as the official one released by O2 in the future?

Upgade trouble
I just tryed the new upgrade. Know the only thing I have on my XDA IIs is a white screen with USB on top an v2.06 on the bottom. If I pull it out of the cradle it is a white screen with seiral on top and v2.06 on the bottom. What do I need to do know to get this thing to work?

V 1.31.139 Upgrade
Just a quick question.. None of the standard and forum-supplied passwords are valid to open the included roms. Am I missing something supposedly obvious??
Any assistance will appreciated.
Thanx ;-)

Downloaded & installed already - now testing !
One thing that impressed me was the speed of the upgrade - took less than 10 minutes to upgrade my XDAIIs, via USB.

Try rebooting your pc and running the update again
Re: the clock disappearing: it appears to be O2 active that removes the clock, if you prevent o2 active installing by resetting your xda when it prompts to install o2 active the clock is still there after the reset, but the reg edit restores it ok
Im now running
Rom Version: 1.31.00 WWE
Extended rom Version: 1.31.139 (with caller id 1.2)

I tried on mine, also Asian XDAIIs. It won't install, at least not without some tweaking as explained on this forum. Also at first try, I tried replacing the radio rom with 1.06.02 and ran the upgrade. It also bombed on that one.
Oh well. :roll:
Any news on when such upgrade would be available for Asian O2 XDAIIs?

Here is the link to the Xda IIs Upgrade Instructions & Release Notes (PDF file):
Code:
http://64.244.24.19/xda/Xda_IIs_131139_upgrade.pdf
It might be usefull to read before installing the upgrade. According to the manual this ugrade is only for devices sold by O2 UK and O2 Ireland. This may explain why it can't be installed on Asian version.

I try to edit rom to upgrade for my PDA2K using xda3nbftool but the password are incorrect. Anyone has new pass for this rom? Thanks.

Hi all,
I have downloaded and installed the new upgrade, however, I have lost the screen flipping button!?!
this is what I did......
1> did a full backup
2> ran the update (failed)
3> ran it again (worked) saw the button!
4> restored my backup
5> button disappeared!
any ideas how to get it back?
Cheers

Hi
As AFAIK you cannot restore a full backup after doing an upgrade. Doing so would replace some of the upgraded files with old ones. You can restore your contacts databases etc, but you will have to manually install any 3rd party software, and manually configure the device to your liking.

Just upgraded mine versions are now:
Rom Version: 1.31.00 WWE
Date 12/13/04 (Which means that HTC gave this to O2 eons ago and they only just released it 2.5 months later!!!!)
Radio Version: 1.06.00 (latest is 1.06.02 so this is out of date)
Ext Rom: 1.31.139 WWE
Bluetooth build 3500 (latest is 3900)
I also notice Photo contacts V1.17 (latest is V1.20)
If this had been released back at xmas it would have been acceptable, but we have now waited 4-5 months for essential bug fixes from O2, and when they turn up, they are 2.5 months out of date already. Its pretty disgusting really. I shall avoid O2 as a provider in the future.

hi, what are diference between my ROM and your adviced ROM ver ?

Hi, i used to use your rom before my current and it was quite a good rom but the aku2 rom i suggested is better
1. Has push email - so your email arrives in a way that your sms's does, almost instantly.
2. Rom is more stable - no more spontaneous soft reset's or dropped calls
3. Battery life is noticeably better.
4. Device is a bit quicker
5. Calls using the phone are better because it has an updated radio.
6. Downside is 2 line date - can be sorted with lvmtime and battery on taskbar - can be covered with same program.
hope that helps

Hi ,
Is this the latest normal rom, i mean not tweaked, tinkered or modified ?
I looked in the FTP server but the numbering system for the roms is not really clear...
Since i am Dutch i don't mind a Dutch version...
Does it have A2DP ?
rgrds Mike

I assume you have a t-mobile vario - latest official dutch rom is here http://www.t-mobile.nl/zakelijk/med...y_2210205_22102108_021911_TMO_NL_DUT_Ship.exe
You can stop the t-mobile extras installing by doing as soft reset just before they install. None of the roms mentioned include a2dp but there is an easy addon for that look at the a2dp addon thread.

Hi thx for the info.
Your're right i have an MDA Vario
Btw is this the latest ever or just the latest dutch ?
And is it newer than the above mentioned Qtek ?
rgrds Mike

Its newer than the above qtek rom the first few numbers give it away 2.21 vs 2.17 the higher this first number the newer the rom.
There is a newer qtek rom 2.8 something but its a test rom but you can get it in dutch. Only problem is that when you boot up it says test rom and some people have noticed a memory leak, but it does have a2dp included but many have reported it does not work that well with this rom.

hi, i upgraded ROM to AKU ver 2.17
but please help me to remove the new batery and GPRS icons
from the top info bar... the icons appeared after upgrade.
10x

Those icons are part of the ROM. All ROMs of the AKU 2.1 variety are going to have those icons in place.
That said, if I were you I would immediately downgrade back to a 1.x ROM and do a CID unlock before upgrading. You don't NEED to do it if you stay with operator ROMs, but if you ever want to use a custom ROM in the future it's something you'll want to do.
The CID encryption changed somewhere between 2.17 and 2.21 and the unlocking tools no longer work. If you upgrade to a bootloader that is version 2.21 or higher you will not be able to use the current downgrader tool and you will not be able to use lokiwiz02b to unlock the CID. At that point the only option is to pay imei-check.co.uk to do the job. Might as well take the free route while you can.

re
why I need to upgrade ROM again ? this ver is working OK till now
i have not operotors ROM.

I use lvmtime - it covers over the battery icon and levenum has done a good job with it. (new version expected soon) see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45084

Did I get a bad WM6 Rom?

Okay, I have tried Roms PDAViet3, 4, and what ever wiz_wm6_pv and my OS still shows up as WM5. Am I doing something wrong? Please help or direct me to a thread. For those who dont want to help noobs and tell me to read up, try sorting through 80 page threads that go in circles and tell me how easy it is to find an answer.
Thanks

Have you CID-unlocked your phone?

Not very difficult! The thread is sticky on top and has "[READ FIRST]" in the title!
When you're OS won't flash you're not CID-unlocked. Follow the thread by the letter if you got a G3 device!

hehe when I first started, I had this problem as well, my phone wouldnt flash.
Loki said it was sucessful in unlocking my CID when it wasn't.. DOH!
~fear nothing but my smelly feet.

The instructions in "Sticky: Poll: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2" do work but it's easy to miss a step. I did the first time and it drove me nuts for a couple of hours. So read everything twice, don't skip anything, complete the full setup of each rom and make sure everything works and all version #s are correct before proceeding to the next, and don't be an idiot like me and try to do this at 4:30am Sunday after an 80 hour work week and copious quantities of beer. What I did exactly was:
flash button rom
Unlock
flash button rom again (don't skip this)
next you need to flash a rom with v2 boot loader ( I used "RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE.exe")
next I deviated from the plan by flashing
"faria-htc-wizard-aku3.3-page-pool-8mb"
then I updated the radio with
REAL_Radio_2.61.11 -(works good for me)
after playing with faria's rom for a day or two
I flashed pdaviet4
Backed up everything to SD and Hard disk
Installed all my software,
Backed up again
installed WM6_VC_BT_Fix.cab to fix voice command with bluetooth
worked for me.
Hope this helps.

It's mentioned in this thread already. If you get the old OS, you're not CID-unlocked! Read the sticky how to unlock and flash if you got a G3.
If you got a G4, look at the G4 section how to flash onto a CID-locked device.

vilem great find!

does the upgrade to 3.08 make a difference compared to the 2.26 that comes from US T-mobile? this wouldn't effect the usability of the custom roms, since they only update the OS and not the IPL/SPL/RADIO, right?

IPL/SPL update is not that important,but the ROM is a T-Mobile.
This one update to
IPL/SPL 3.08
Radio 2.69
AKU 3.3

...........

It's English...I've flashed it.

Any thoughts on the rom? How stable is it? Free memory etc. Thanx in advance.

-It's stable ,fast and add HTC X Button,Streaming Media,SoftKey and remove t-zones,hotspot.Storage:47.46M free 40.02,Program :44.01,free:19.90.

such a nice rom, so less reply, why?
I flashed this rom to my Qtek9100, it works very smoothly so far, why so less reply to this rom? you guys all flashed to WM6 already?

I flashed this as my base for a WM6 rom. I downloaded it last week. It was linked in the German AKU 3.3 tmobile thread.

I tried it for a little bit, it's stable but tends to be slow, I can't run everything I want without resources getting dangerously low. So, I use it as a base ROM. I also tried a number of WM6 ROMs, but I can't live with the missed call issue with any radio ROM above 2.19. So I use Faria's WM5 3.3. It's the most stable and fast WM5 ROM I've found.

i only ended up flashing this as a base rom to go back to before flashing to a custom rom. took the spl/ipl and the radio, since it was official t-mobile and flashed straight to xm6. the rom seemed to look nicer, lotsa new programs, relatively stable...everything wasn't in english for the wwe...didn't know what studeni meant (it was in the calendar part).
anyway, overall, a good rom to flash back to, rather than constantly going back to the us t-mobile 2.26

I installed this ROM earlier today - seems to be okay, but a call did go straight to voicemail earlier - I was watching the phone and there was no indication of a call at all! I may possibly downgrade the Radio ROM to 2.25 later.
I previously had the official TMobile (USA) 2.26 ROM installed on my MDA and loved the blue dialer. This one appears to be white with pink buttons. Can someone please tell me how to get the blue one back?
Also, how easy would it be to install the Comm Manager from the 2.26 ROM?
Many Thanks!

Loaded this one this morning.
Took a lot of tweaking to get all of the normal MDA tweaks on.
Also lots of extra mods to get rid of/change the Croatian config to US.
Ran into a major show stopper this afternoon. Tried to change sort on 800+ contacts from by name to by company. MDA pretty much just locked up. Could not scroll. Could not select by letter. Had to soft reset to un-freeze.
Also, no HTML e-mail. Old MS Office.
As soon as I get time, will be trying some other version of WM6. Maybe time for Faria's!

Checked About in settings last night.
This release is WM5. Argh!

I flashed last week.But it drain battery.So i come back 2.26 USA T-Mobile ROM.

Battery Drain
I did notice the battery drain with the 2.69 radio, but I flashed back to the 2.40 radio that has been working so well for me and the battery drain is back to the rate it was when I had the 2.26 rom with 2.40 radio on it.
As for the dialer.... try the operator skin registry edit below....
Remove operator skin from Phone app
If your device's Phone app is skinned, you can remove by setting:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 0 (DWORD decimal)
Similarly, you can restore it with:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 1 (DWORD decimal)

As far I can tell the ATT has the latest official OS and radio.
See thread to all official releases (sticky) in this forum. Oh and I was wrong about the fixed backlight bug, the VFNZ WM6 Update still has this bug in it. So I can't see any reason to use this version, except maybe for the VFNZ carrier settings maybe?
