What is the most current OS version for my phone? - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

I live in Kansas City, Missouri and have the T-Mobile XDA I (or whatever it is called). I bought it with the 2002 OS on it and upgraded to the 2003 version that I found on the t-mobile website. I was curious if there was a newer, more stable version out yet that is official yet? The version I currently have on there is:
ROM version: 4.01.16 ENG
ROM date: 2/4/04
Radio version: 6.25.02
Protocol version: 324e4
Is this the newest one for my phone and if not where can I find the newest one?
THANKS A TON!!

Can someone PLEASE help me out here?

There is no newer Version of ROM available.
As much as i know, T-mobile removed this release, because they have some problems with it.
From O2 there is an version out (4.01.12) but this had never been official released on their website to download.

I cooked a ROM in your Kitchen for my XDA 1. Your Kitchen is great and I was able to customize the ROM fifor my needs.
I've got:
ROM version: 4.01.16 ENG
ROM Date: 2/4/04
Radio version: 6.18.00
This ROM is giving me all kinds of problems such as
XDA turns itself on every few minutes when the phone (radio) is on.
Sometime the SD card shows up as empty, othertimes it has the files?
Is there a more stable and functional ROM?
On my harddrive I've got the following ROMs as executables:
3.17
4.00
Official T-Mobile RUU2.07 v4.01.16
Which of these would you say is the best and can I use any of them
in your ROM Kitchen?

Don't know, which ROM Version is the best.
I'm using the 4.00.33 Version, but it's in German, so it isn't useful for you.
I never had much problems with this ROM, so it's the best for me.
Many people reports, that the best WM2003 ROM is the 4.01.12.
3.17.03 is surely one of the stablest ROMs, but it's still Pocket PC 2002 and not the new WM2003.

Thanks for your help. I am using WM2003.
I notice in your kitchen that ROM 4.01.12 is a version from O2 in the UK.
Will this work for me in the USA? If so, do I choose the No Autoconfig option? Is there anything else I need to adjust to make it work here?
Any other ROM versions to use in the USA?
Also, I cooked my current ROM using the WM2003 final verison in your kitchen. Is the device turning on every few mintues if the phone (radio)
is on, a known problem?
Thank you.

New Eddition will be Avilable Soon for from I-mate v.1.66

I am already reg. with I-mate as owner of one of it products, I got informations from them say that new room will be avilable soon it is ver. 1.66 for XDA II maybe next few days, and the windows Ver. is Windows 2003 SE
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.

Upgrading my XDAII unit.

Hi, I'm new here and I haven't tried to upgrade my XDAII unit.
I have a few question regarding this.
1. Will this void my GLOBE warranty? I have a 2yrs contract with GLOBE and currently I'm in the middle of it (1yr).
2. How to determine the current version of my unit?
ROM version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM date: 02/20/04
Radio version:1.08.00
Protocol version: 1337.18
ExtROM version: 1.66.165
3. When I upgraded my ROM would it be permanent? Meaning everytime I hard reset my unit it will install the new ROM?
4. Can I return to my original ROM?
5. Can I backup my current ROM or is there a downloadable version of my ROM (default ROM for XDAII)?
6. Which is stable 2003se or 2005?
Thanks.
P.S. other question will arise. Sorry if this sound stupid but pls understand that I'm new here. :lol:
1. Will this void my GLOBE warranty? I have a 2yrs contract with GLOBE and currently I'm in the middle of it (1yr).
Yes, when you flash your rom with a other rom than the original then your warranty is over. So upgrade is at your own risk :!:
2. How to determine the current version of my unit?
ROM version: 1.66.00WWE
OS version
ROM date: 02/20/04
Release date of Rom
Radio version:1.08.00
This is the version of your phone unit
Protocol version: 1337.18
Don't no
ExtROM version: 1.66.165
This contains additional software from your provider.
Can be unlocked and changed. How check this forum
3. When I upgraded my ROM would it be permanent? Meaning everytime I hard reset my unit it will install the new ROM?
Yes, so make a backup of youre original one:idea:
4. Can I return to my original ROM?
Yes, it's possible. If you have it or backed it up
5. Can I backup my current ROM or is there a downloadable version of my ROM (default ROM for XDA II)?
Don't no if there is a specific Rom for youre device. Check the site if GLOBE. Otherwise search this forum for backup software
6. Which is stable 2003se or 2005?
I think WM2003SE is more stable i know because i use it.
I tried WM2005 but when TomTom 5 (navigation software) was not working at that moment i downgraded to WM2003SE.
But the choice is all yours
I don't know everything so maybe there are others who can check my answers. And correct me. I don't want to tell you the wrongs things
Thank you very much [email protected].
welcome kabayan!
warranty????
how about saving(backup) your original rom...ha?
i am smart postpaid user...i reflashed/upgrade/downgrade my device many times.
when i have a probs with my device i just go back to the original rom and going to the smart center with no probs...
EASY!
why is it voiding the warranty...you are only just tweaking the software not the hardware...there original rom is too buggy, they don't have any upgrade or patch to this probs....only one solution is to upgrade from this forum...
:x
Hi kabayan.
Nice to hear from someone closer to me. LOLz.
I have read all you post and its greate. You deserve a two (more) thumbs up. Anyway, I have read in you post that there are too many patch needed. Can I have the version on the current stable ROM you have and all its related files.
One more thing, there are 4 software to be patch right? ROM, Radio, Protocol, ExtROM. Correct me if I'm wrong, based from the above post. I can upgrade to MW2003se my ROM, Radio, and Protocol then have a different ExtROM?
Does the ExtROM contains all the default application installed in the unit when we hard reset it?
Thanks Kabayan.

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.
