Thanks

I had no idea but I guess it is as it comes from SourceO2...
It's the same link to download 1.72.181
http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/Xda_update.htm
You will find the link to download 1.72.181...
http://64.244.24.19/xda/Xda_II_172181_Final.exe

Do you pick only one of the two, off to read PDF's.
Here are the answers from the PDF's...
181 will disconnect any connection when phone rings, except the Blackberry, Mobile Web and WAP connections. If you need to use a permanent GPRS connection that will remain connected when phone is used, you should use 187 version.
Also, there are additional apps available for download as well (same page).
1. KSE Truefax
2. Fonix Voice Dial
3. ZIP Manager

This is the GERman update, AFAIK...

Could anybody provide the username and password for www.SourceO2.com website for downloading this updates, please? Thank you.

Country Error? I had prviously the XDA-Devel. 1.72 installed
Any ideas how to fix this butg? OUch, just upgraded last week to the xda-develpers 1.72, and now want this new o2 one, ouch!

Should be working normally...
What kind of bug do you mean?

You can register a username for free on the O2 site, and get a password mailed to you. You will then be able to download the files.

Ha, cool! Thanks. I thought is dependent on using O2 device (check on IMEI)...

Hm... I'm registred, but my credentials are not working...

You can follow the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=63862#63862 to get the upgrade working. mine is at 38% updated and I should be done in about an hour or so.
The extra applications file is attached to this post for simplicity...

Check my post here. My guess is your previous upgrade set your operator in the device to a non-O2 value.

Radio Version is 1.14
Protocol Version is 1337.24

A release from O2Asia is expected. O2Asia usually follows about a week after O2UK, I think.

Rom Upgrades

Hi. I'm very new to the XDA II, just received mine this morning, previously had an SPV E200. I've just tried to register on myxda.com so that I could download the rom updates but it keeps saying I am enetering an invalid IMEI number and therefore I can't register to gain access to the site. Is there any other way of getting the ROM updates and also which is the best Rom to update too. I am wanting to unlock the phone to all netwroks and use with a bluetooth headset and bluetooth gps receiver.
Thanks In Adavnce
P.S. Im in the UK and on the O2 network
The official O2 Rom update can be found at the developers Source O2 site:
http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/XdaIIRom.htm
The current version is 1.60.50
I would guess that this is the version you probably have already installed.
There are a number of unofficial ROM updates which could be installed on your XDAII, these can be found searching this forum. The latest ROM version which you could install is the i-Mate 1.72.00.
Before attempting to install any new version I would suggest that you read the following post by dcs which hopefully would help you avoid the common pitfalls of upgrading:

O2 v1.72.187 apps

On sourceO2 it says that you can download the latest O2 ROM. Now, I know this link isn't up and running yet, but it does give some interesting info.
The bit I'm interested in is the new applications that come with a new XDA2. It says on here you can download them, but then asks for a username/password.
Anyone have a SourceO2 account and could pull these off for us?
Thanks!
Thanks for the heads-up, doh, but when I click the link to continue... (in bold below)

Extract the 1.72.187 ROM image
I was wondering has anyone try to extract the ms_.nbf in the 1.72.187 update from sourceO2 website? I have tried to extract it with xda2nbftool and er2003edit (password: 0x20040305) but failed. If anyone got it, please let me know how to do it. Thank you for all suggestions and advices.
Where did you get the 1.72.197 update from? SourceO2 are still linking to the 1.60.50 update at my-xda.com.
Sorry for the confusion. I don't have the 1.72.187 ROM. I messed up by my own "folder system" . The one that I thought it is the 1.72.187, well actually, is some kind of customization ROM and I named it as 1.72.187. Sorry for all confusions I have created!

What won't install? Where does your quoted "the ROM is updated" message come from?
The three new apps won't install.
The installer runs on the PC,
then on the XDA there is the same error each time.
Setup Error - Unable to install application, Please update your device ROM to the required version before trying again.
I've upgraded to v172187,
restored by backup,
synchronised
and everything works fine.
Except this.
It could be that the restore overwrote the ROM version in the registry. Check your device information to see what version it reports. If it is incorrect, change it by amending the registry value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\3rdversion\MSYSTEM to the correct value then try the installs again.

UK ROM v1.72.187 - Anyone tried it?

OK!
The above ROM has been released and I believe many users have already downloaded it.
Just to check whether:-
a) any problme faced during installation? Is the upgrading procedure straight forward?
b) any problem upgrading from WAXX ROM to this UK ROM?
c) any problme faced during upgrading from i-Mate v1.72 to this UK ROM?
d) other problems encountered?
Thanks for your feedback
ive downloaded both and tried had no problems so far try using file from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12512
I will upgrade later tonight, and hopefully report back tomorrow
RE
Hi Hobbit!
What file and where's the link? :roll:
BTW, is the performance better than the WAXX ROM and the i-Mate v1.72 ROM?
Thanks

sorry was in different forum lol
I've uploaded ROMs here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12528
yep tried em both. no real noticable difference to the unofficial 1.72 ive been using for months. Looks like its new device time as no hope of further updates - unless someone knows differntly....
I have upgraded, no problems.......everything works fine !!
:lol:
RE
Just one question.
Is this upgrade solely meant for UK users?
I'm from the asian side. I just can't wait for myxda to release its asian version.
Any problem with my asian telco operators here?
Thanks
I just upgraded my XDA II to the O2 UK 1.72.187 release. It all went well. I previously had installed the i-mate 1.72 ROM.
I had used Activesync to do a full backup prior to upgrading, and I restored it after the upgrade. After a couple of soft resets, everything seems OK, including the Widcomm bluetooth stack I previously had installed.
So, although early days yet, everything seems OK
Only downside - in my opinion
I was using the asian ROM version 1.60.44 for the longest time without any problems, I just upgraded to the UK ROM version 1.72.181 and the only downside I noticed, as of now, is that the clear type sucks, its just like the 1.72 of the i-Mate, of the 1.66 of the Asian O2. It was way better in the old ROM I was using.

Thanks DCS for the link. My ClearType is A OK again now
My pleasure
Just upgraded to the image with blackberry version on a CPW xdaII runing 1.66 - result good
1st I backed up with version 3.7.1 of active sync
then I hard reset
then I closed all the programs and icons in the system tray
First it failed with usb left on the screen.
I did a soft reset and re ran the upgrade program again and all is well.
I am now restoring the backup, haha which worked except for a few files which I skipped, these were the same files that were skipped on a normal restore.
Now my destinator satnav is working and that is tied to the machine so all in ace
what have I gained, I don't really known, looking forward to the fax though,
where is it?

Additional download.
You will find it in the Fax software in the XDAIIAppSuite uploaded by The Hobbit in his post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12526

Do you try ClearType Tuner in this ROM, the file is cttune.cpl.CAB
I think it's another way to correct the cleartype problem beside the dcs' way? Is it right?
is there anyone got problems like mine?I stuck with SMS, i did send one sms to my number and it takes 4 hour to delivery it and when i go to sent box i didnt see any sms that i have sent???? do you knows that and can you tell me how to fix it?
From Inbox check Tools/Options/Keep copy of sent mail in Sent folder
As for the four hour delay - I get that sometimes - I put it down to O2 network.

New Atom Rom on O2 site

Original post by SupaStar of Mtekk forum:
New on the O2 website, same ROM, new Radio Stack. There also appears to be a change to the Extended ROM.
WAS:
ROM: 20060426B1WWE
Radio: R060428N_MN1ARC_RS00049
ExtROM: EX0018
NOW:
ROM: 20060426B1WWE
Radio: R060822N_MN1ARC_RS00052
ExtROM: EX0023
Here's the link: http://www.seeo2.com/user/XdaAtom/template/XdaAtom_ROMUpgrade_Oct2006_WWE.vm
The only info provided by O2 is "This System Software Upgrade corrects location update issue in GSM radio firmware that may lead to inability to place outgoing calls."
I somehow failed to update this rom using my atom's login id, it says my atom doesn't need the update... well, radio part, may be, but there is also a change in Ext-Rom, I really want to know what the change is all about.
thanx , hope the battery prob is fixed
same here.says i dont need it.what gives?
any changelog?
bug fix?
If you have any other version than English Version than the upgrade is not for you. Else if you still want to check it out the option to RESET the phone ROM is always there CAMERA+RESET button and then connect to the USB and setup the new ROM.
At a glance, it looks that the GSM functionality under 900MHz has been improved.
I have a "genuine" English version Atom, no vail, still say i don't need it when i try to download the rom from o2 site
i can't downlad & got the same message too, anyone success download from O2 site, pls share with us, very itching to know the change. thanks.
I'm not sure. I initially was faced with the same problem. Here is how I go around it. Copy the url for the updated rom first. Do not go to the link yet. Instead go into their main seeo2 site. Login as usual in the o2 connect. Once you are logged into your account. Then paste the url. Now you should be able to download the file.

Thank you !
I can't find any improvements
Upgraded only to solve screen/battery issue. For now (2 hours already ) it's okay.

iMate JasJam on Three (Aus)

Hey all,
I have just purchased an iMate JasJam from Telstra (was a cheap display model) and i have signed up to three mobile. I want to access planet three and do everything as if i had brought the phone on three.
Can i just install the Dopod 838 Pro ROM?
Can someone post a link to a Dopod ROM? as im not allowed into the dopod website due to me not actually owning a dopod!
Any help greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Geordie

To use planet 3 all you have to do is type three.net.au in ie.
before you can do that you will need the settings for 3services, 3mms and or 3netaccess configured. There is a tool that does it on wm6. link is below, you can try it for your WM5 rom. The dopod rom will only serve you to remove any telstra programs. If the cab program below doesnt work there is a thread which has the settings for you to enter manually.
*edit* the cab file has been removed from the thread (first one below) you will have to check back again to get it.

Dopod ROM for 3 Aus
Dopod have released a ROM update specifically for 3 in AU on 2007/03/28.
The version number is: v1.30.707.8 and it states as follows:
838Pro (WM5) ROM code for Hutchison ‘3’ network - version 1.30.707.8 This ROM code will allow you to fully utilize the Planet 3 services.
As i'm not on 3 (using Black 2.0 WM6 using Vodafone AU here) i havent actually downloaded it for myself and from the look of it, its not even mentioned on the Wiki so i cant tell you exactly whats different from the generic AU ROM v1.30.707.4 released on 2006/12/01.
If you cant find it anywhere else, maybe I could download it and get it to you somehow!
Cheers,
Chris

Hey mate,
Yeah, i cant log into the dopod site as i have an imate so it doesnt accept the serial number. If you could download it and post it on a filesharing site or something, that would be awesome. I know they are fairly big so i assume that writes email out (i have space, im on gmail)
Also, is WM6 good? where do i upgrade?
Thanks so much for your help
No probs mate, its uploading to www.megaupload.com now, i'll update this post with a link when complete. (approx 25 mins to go)
EDIT: Here is the link to the Dopod ROM: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OY2IJE79 (I'll update the Wiki with this link soon)
EDIT2: I have updated the Wiki with this ROM info. As i haven't installed it, i can't confirm the exact radio, bootloader etc versions however i believe its just minor changes from the previous release so have left most of the versions the same. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
As for upgrading, before you do anything i would read, read and read as much of the XDA Wiki as you can. If you havent flashed any ROM's on your JasJam before you will need to do this before uprading to the Dopod ROM as your JasJam will most likely still be locked down to i-mate ROM's only and the Wiki explains exactly what you need to do.
The link to the Wiki is here ---->> http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
As for upgrading to WM6, the same advice applies. All the information you need is in the Wiki or the Hermes Mobile 6 forum and as long as you read carefully before doing anything you should be right to go.

Thanks in advanced.
These settings are pretty hard to find. I think it's all I've done all night.
Courtesy of a thread on Aussie3G, I got a link to a thread on this site.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298936
Amongst the attachments on that thread is a "CWW Enterprises AUS Operator Con.cab"
This program has configuration settings for the Australian carriers, including "Three".
I've just run it and it's created 3mms, 3services & 3netaccess, but I'm still having troubles with email. I'll be leaving it to another day now.
If you can get it all working, please tell me how
