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)
after lots of reading, it seems that the most stable and the only rom version which can solve "no sound" problem is this one: ba_1.33.51_with_wmp10_cooked_by_mamaich_final.rar
but the file is missing in ftp? can anyone please help re-upload? thx!
also to mamaich:
I read one of your thread about no sound problem and it says:
"You don't need to softreset your phone. You can just turn flight mode on and off.
Currently I have 1.33.51 (my cooked) ROM, 1.10 radio, BT build 3900 and several fixes installed and have not noticed such problem for a long time. Last time I had such problem I was running 1.31 ROM, 1.06 radio and old 3500 BT stack. Maybe BT 3900 or some other update fixed that.

BT: 1.0.0 build 3900"
and wondering your signature says you're using 1.40? and what's "fixed" in 1.40 WWE fixed means? this fix can solve no sound problem?
in short, do you encounter no sound prolem using bt headset with this rom? if no can you upload your rom to ftp and share with us?
deeply troubled by this problem! T__T thx for your help
When i recieve a call, the ringtone has a hiccup. anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?
