which ROM is best for XDA2
before you do anything to upgrade your XDA2, you need to think anout your satisfaction with your XDA2 now.
If your device work well, you won't need to do anything.
because of ROM upgrade is risky your device please think before do anything.
In my suggestion, the best ROM is T-mobile 1.72. you can search in this forum to find topic about T-mobile 1.72.
think before do anything.
What about if you use 1.66.00 WWE and the damn thing crashes all the time? any reccommendations? A few people have been raving about the imate 1.72
My IMate 1.72 ROM is running okay. A few little problems, but nothing that a soft reset didn't cure.
I'm on the T-Mobile ROM...
ROM version: 1.60.00WWE
Radio version: 1.10.00
... with a customized ExtRom.
i-mate ROM 1.72 doesn't work with my GPS Software (Intellinav - Belkin Navigation System)... and it also has bad Cleartype. I-mate ROM 1.66 also has the Cleartype problem, and one of the cleartype fixes some one posted here gave me a hard reset. I-mate ROM 1.52 doesn't have the integrated applications as services advantage so there are less processes available on that ROM, which means you won't be able to run as many applications at once.
Personally, I think I'm going to stick to ROM 1.60 until some Second Edition ROMs start showing up.
Anyone got a 1.60 ROM that I can get? I found that much better than the 1.72 that I upgraded to, but I deleted it..
im on imate 1.72 never had a sd erase nor hard reset have to softreset every few days thats all works great with tomtom3 and BT gps

at all when I got the link to download it I will publish the link for everyone, Thank you for everyone published that great support using XDA II and XDA. it was great help to me to came very expert in solving problems to my XDA and XDAII
as my profile say then
i have
RUU 1.66.00WWE
RSU 1.10
on my qtek2020 it came with that
as far as i can tell it's not 2003 SE
specs
ROM version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM date> 02/20/04
Radio version 1.10.00
protocol version 1337.18
extOM version 1.66.140
I published what I already read in I-mate forum, I didn't have it yet ...... by the way all new edditions of XDAII coming with v. 1.66
so Rudegar
as it is getting really stressy to have the latest release... ;-)
do you have any ideas about the improvements with your
1.66.00 ROM over the 1.60.00
Alex
hmm, can you post a copy of your rom?
you can copy the rom with pmemdump from itsutils.
well it had that rom when i got it so i cant really compare it with 1.60 since i went from a xda1
i'll look into drumping the rom
but it does seem to have some auto settings and such for
some phone company
usually the phone company specific stuff is in the extended rom.
itsme:
usually the build number is just the ExtROM right? example, the latest tmobile rom i saw in the other thread had 1.60.36, but the os was simply 1.60.00, and the radio was 1.10.00, and the extrom was 1.60.36
does that mean that IF we extract whatever newest rom that comes out in the future and see that it has the same osrom ver and radio stack, merely upgrading the ExtROM is the best way to go?
I mean i know people prefer to only flash the ExtROM, but that's because they want to cook something up. But what if you just want to upgrade and not waste time with the OS if you see they still have the same number, does it HAVE to come hand in hand to upgrade? Or could you just bypass the others and upgrade the ExtROM and expect it to perform like a real update?
yes, that is what I usually do.
I just modified the "mdkia" 's files and uploaded it ....
hope those are useful for some people with I-Mate 1.52.00wwe.
I have upgraded it successfully...
just finished ...it works:
ROM version: 1.60.00WWE
Radio version: 1.10.00
ExtROM version: 1.60.50
Do you know that I-Mate planning to release 1.66 within a week?
"...Dear Sir,
Thank You for your enquiry and interest. The latest version will be is version 1.66 ROM, and with much better performing for i-mate pocket pc.
..."
Hi everyone,
I copied the Extented Rom from my T-Mobile MDA 2.
Any one interested?
The GPRS Monitor is working.
It display's GRPS data usage, Batterypower, Network Icon, IE Explorer and Mail.
The MMS is not working.
All the others things i din't try because i don't know what the program's are.
If somebody interested let me know
Greetings from [email protected]
Re: Extented Rom from T-Mobile MDA 2 1.72.00 WWE
Yes that will really help me , please if you can send me a link also the procedures from flashing it from GER version on English .
Re: Extented Rom from T-Mobile MDA 2 1.72.00 WWE
Hi item187,
Is your MDA in German?
And you want to have English?
I have the WWE (World Wide Engelish) version.
It's the original Rom from T-Mobile Netherlands.
Radio 1.17
Rom 1.72.00
Do you need this one or only the Extentend Rom?
Greetings [email protected]
I need the WWE full ROM version. I have an MDA II and all I can find is the German ROM.
Re: Extented Rom from T-Mobile MDA 2 1.72.00 WWE
Hey [email protected]
I too would like a copy of that ROM if you don't mind sharing.
I'm relatively new to this site and the world of the Himalaya. Best device I ever purchased. Foolishly I never backed up the original ROM (the one you have) and have been upgrading and other things since. Would be nice to get it back to "factory" settings just in case I ever sold it (looks like they're making progress with the Blue Angel so why not).
Cheers
HI_TMNL_17200_190_11700_Ship (Original T-Mobile NL Rom)
Check this link.
http://www.t-mobile.nl/global/media/zip/HI_TMNL_17200_190_11700_Ship.exe
Rom version: 1.72.190
Radio version: 1.17
The site is in Dutch but the Rom is in WWE (World Wide English).
Also they mention that the use is at own risk. :!:
And that when you update all data on your mda will be lost. :!:
So make a backup before you update :wink:

HI_TMNL_17200_190_11700_Ship (Original T-Mobile NL Rom)
Hey [email protected]
Thanks for the ROM link. Might be a bit out-dated at this point but you never know...it could actually come in handy one day so its good to have.
Hi,
do you have a link also for the German T-Mobile ROM, just in case we need to go back to the original version.
Thank you.
Hi guys. I have the following:
ROM Version: 1.60.00WWE
ROM Date: 12/03/03
Radio Version: 1.08.00
ExtROM Version: 1.60.44
Of course, I don't know what any of that means but would appreciate one of the Gurus on this site to suggest a suitable upgrade for me. Something tried, tested and suitable for technophobes like me (ie simple download, copy to device and run .exe?).
I am living in Singapore so a suitable Asian version please.
Also, does anyone have any problem with the ringtones on the XDA II (Himalaya)... I am forever missing calls because it just doesn't seem loud enough. My old mobile/hand phone had the neighbours complaining of noise pollution.
Is there a solution for this?
Thanks
Try the SE CHS version, located on the FTP site. You should.
I had the same exact device information
ROM Version: 1.60.00WWE
ROM Date: 12/03/03
Radio Version: 1.08.00
ExtROM Version: 1.60.44
and tried the CHS translated and it made the screen all skippy and it was impossible to setup, etc. So what I did was I just used the genuine wm2003se in the wiki and created my own extended rom, much easier ;D
ROM version: 1.66.00 WWE
ROM date: 2/20/04
Radio version: 1.08.00
Protocol version: 1337.18
ExtROM version: 1.66.165
Do i have the latest one? If not where i can get the latest? ALso, I have some problems with my XDA II, will downloading the same ROM solve my problems?even if it's not the updated one?
the latest official one is 1.75
if you upgrade your device with the same rom it already have
it's just the same thing as a hardreset
you can find roms on the ftp you can find out how to get to the ftp in the wiki pages
Hi, Rudegar. It's original rom for O2 XDA II?
Do you know?
no i think the last official rom from o2 was 1.72
Doesnt it just suck that there was never even a 2003SE rom for the XDAII ?
Man, I mean come on o2, I can understand no 2005rom, but 2003SE!?
My god-knows-how-old iPaq 3970 is running wm2003, and you cant be bothered to give us the 2003se update for XDAII ??? Jeez. you stingy gits.
