XDA II's Dead after an update - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

ITs 2 days old i did i update i found in the forum http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/XdaIIs_launchROM.htm
look ok to do. not it wont reboot soft or hard. just desplays a message serial v 2 . 0 6
connection on cradle dosnt seem to be registered to now any advise help?

run the update again ? don't worry about activesync not finding it

dont do anything now error 150

and the activesyinc on desktop dosent read the xda as connected thought it is

Sorry error 150
This rom upgrade uti;ity does not design for your device please get proper rom.
Rom was for XDA II's. PDF on website said get restore rom but i cant find a link to that anywhere anyone got a o2 restore rom? i can try?

xda_IIs_LaunchROM_v1.12.162_178.exe is the restoration ROM
is it an original O2UK? operator id O2___001
did you do another upgrade prior to this one? Then it may have overwritten your operator id in your xdaiis
xda3nbftool, ER2003EDIt are useful tools
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=78053#78053

i think iv over written my operator thingi if i download the orginal rom how do i put it back to uk o2 so the update will work?

my daddy always said,
"if it aint broken, dont fix it."

The current situation the XDA IIS just displays USB v 2 0 6
soft or cold reboot wont change this, cradle dosnt seem to show connected. it has been working
I got a copy of Xda_IIs_LaunchROM_v1.12.162_178 i belive is the default rom for the xda IIs i try to run this and it say error 150 rom ugrade utility error
This rom utility dosnt not designed for your device.
been suggested iv over written somet on my xda ie the operator thigi, so how do i change that bac?

i had same problem with you, just do the update again ignored what displayed in the screen.

ANYHELP??

Maybe this needs to be clarified on here and made into a sticky. The SourceO2 rom has been listed in error and calls to have it removed or even tested to prove its wrong are being ignored. Subsequently people such as yourselves are finding your devices have been turned into bricks! (Luckily not forever :wink: )

Unfortunately as far as I know there is not yet an official O2 rom for the Blue Angel device that is freely downloadable. But you will find in this forum roms from other operators that can be made to work as a perfect replacement.
Ash

Can anyone with new XDA2s just do image of all files on the XDA and affter that we may just upload that to these bricks wich we have now?
Please

Well my units gone bak to o2 to reflash if i can do a back up of the rom for the forum and its needed if somone told me how to i would certainly do that and upload it somere
Russ

How much it will cost and how long it will take to refresh tat in O2? An what reason You give to them?

Fixed?
Hey
Just got an e-mail back from source O2:
Hi Ashley,
apologies for the incorrect file published and thank-you for bringing it to our attention.
The error has now been rectified & I can assure you, tested. Its is available at the same link as previous;

Anyone with a Blue Angel (XDA 2s, MDA III, PDA2K) like to see if re-downloading this and trying it works?
Ash

It is installing but we will see if it is working after 20 min.

Ok it is working properly
Thanx for help

hmm
Well iv told them it just stopped working. Am still under the 14 day period so I can cancel with them for any reason I see fit. Said it be 7 days, so free.

Hmm
Well I guess us and few other will be back with our XDA II's back with o2 Rom.
From wot iv read the to have ROM is the I-mate one. But am scared to try this now. Does it drasticly get better on this rom.
Scared Russ

here some guidance. (execuse me Zero... .. (i put this form one of his posting)
1. study this http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12101 by read them carefuly, BUT do not upgrade your's now.Continue to the next step

MDA PRO ROM upgrade

Hi all
My first post as a new MDA PRO owner HTC universal if I am not mistaken.
My question is that I am with Vodafone UK and am tying to flash my device with their latest ROM downloaded from their site.
I keep on getting the following message from the setup program i.e. "ERROR 120 COUNTRY CODE ERROR" 38-38-44-44-44.
What am I doing wrong as I thought these machines were all the same! Or is it just an attempt by Vodafone to stop me from putting their ROM on a Tmobile phone. If it is is there a work around?
Thanks in advance
Brian.
There are 2 ways to get it working.
1. Use MaUpgradeNoID Utility
2. Change some parameters with BAL666's HTC64 Tool
If you search the forum you should normally be able to find a manual for this.
If not, do not hesitate to use the Wiki:
wiki.xda-developers.com
section Universal
Thanks for that much appreciated
As I am new to this I think must be missing something as I have tried using MAUpgradeUT_NoID with no luck. I have also seen on the threads here about MAUpgradeUT_NoID_886 but cant find a download link for it.
If someone could give me a real idiots guide would be most grateful.
All done managed to get my thick head around it.
Just like to say what a great site this is and reminds me of early Psion days.
check buzzdev.net register there and go to the download page.
If you know something about computers, then try to reset the parameters. this was working for me! the NoID.exe doesn't look for these parameters, but that doesn't worked out for me.

[CHATTER THREAD] WM XDA Live v0.20.x

Here is where everyone can have general chatter and conversation about WMXL v0.20.x
To be honest, I'll spend most of my time in the REPORT ISSUES thread but please don't clutter that thread. I will check in here from time to time.
​
Expected release 8pm GMT -6. Thats around 1am GMT+10 (THU) for me. Time to make an espresso.
On a serious note, your efforts are appreciated.
Now if my wife can stop nagging me it will be the icing on the cake.
Clean release
Thanks for the work!!!!
Do you have plans to release a clean release without phm and all the other apps installed....
(just pulling down 0.20 now!! Will test the sms voicemail notification issue to see if exists in this rom..)
I'm to be the first one.
Downloaded. Installing.
Got the ROM, now all I need is to get back to England, collect my repaired phone and start playing again...
Thanks for the great work - suggest you get some well deserved rest before all the questions start coming in (can I flash back to WM5 etc etc)
already done...beat ya

They forgive, but after all already hard is corrected with hard reset
I don't remember WM5 having this but yes apparently with WM6 you can increase Free Storage Memory by stripping out files.
I noticed this when after I embedded Adobe Acrobat. That is why I released two Roms. I actually flashed an older (RTM) WM6 Rom which had an insane amout of Free Storage Memory, like 62mb but there were no office files and I didn't bother looking into that else was missing...
Still planning on a clean Rom. I want to let this one run for a few days first to see if I broke anything new in it . The Beta team didn't find anything major or new but we only ran on it for a few days so that you guys could get your hands on it.
CCRDude said:
does the different "Free Storage Memory" actually mean that the storage space the user has later on to install software is affected by what is installed in the ROM? I thought that I had read that all this pre-installed stuff wouldn't.

For some reason It will not let me flash my T-Mobile UK Vario2 to your 0.20.
The program detects my current ROM, then when I click "Update" it says "Verifying the information on your Hermes" for around 30 seconds. After that an error prompt saying "Error 260 : Update Error"....
Any Ideas?
Nice.... Loading it now... I'll Let you know.. Thank you so much Kyphur...

wm6 for tmob vario2 uk... which version should I use and how?

Hi guys, I am a serial lurker here for several years.. and finally decided to upgrade my vario 2 to shiny wm6. I have downloaded black 2.5 and wanted to find out it all works great and how to install....
i haven't made any other changes to my vario 2 so want to get this right first time!
I think you need to lurk (and read) a bit longer, this same question has already been asked today!
lol, I read that which sparked an interest in upgrading...
What I wanted to know was which was the "best version" to install and what was the best procedure to follow for tmob uk.. I have seen plenty that mention the usa networks but no instructions specifically for tmob..
I know that a lot of you guys have already done it, so I just wanted to pull at your experience and get a good safe method!!!
Put on the fire proof suit quickly my friend, I think it will get very hot very shortly.
Check the WIKI, look for custom rom upgrading and follow MrVanx's idiot proof guides.
Black 2.5 has a UK TMob version as well. The thread is fairly obvious.....
great thanks for the advice....
I will look for it.... would be handy to have a direct url for any other tmob users that come across this post...
I used vanx
I used vanx's update method to install the hard spl, and now my phone is stuck on the 4 colours and won't go any further......
Can anyone help?
His guide also has a what to do if things go wrong section IIRC?
Also, read all 74 pages of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
phew I was lucky, I only needed to reset as it was stuck in bootloader. however when I try to instal hard spl it gives me a request to run enterbl.exe which when I run it, resets the device immediately into a boot loader screen (the colors) and doens't update the firmware...
Have you got all the necessary .net framework stuff installed?
Presume you are using XP not Vista.
i'm still using black 2 but will be upgrading to black 2.5 over the next few days when i have time. I'm also on t-mobile uk and although i havn't tried either the standard black2.5 or the t-mobile one, it'll be the standard version I install as i'd rather keep my phone clean from any t-mobile stuff. Thats just me though.
.net framework? I have looked all over and can't see any reference to it.. can you clarify??
edit:sorry am runnig latest 2.0 version

You need .net framework 2. If you havent got it, download from microsoft. You should read MrVanx guide
You will need to wait for one of the gurus to look in then I am afraid - I followed the guide and it all worked for me.....
T-Mobile - UK W'n'W
I've bitten the button and upgraded both my rom and radio and so far so good
Check this thread, it helped me when I was stuck on bootloader:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
thanks for the message, however I am back in the os... I think it must be some type of software lock.... does t-mob application lock their devices?
Hi, dont know about t-mobile, but I know Orange uk lock their's. However I followed Mr Vanx's excellent guide on the hermes wiki & have flashed a few times with no problems so far. Currently running Black 2.5 (excellent), with no issues.
I use
t-mob and hermes adn black 2.5. Absolutely great.
haven't bothered with the specific t-mobile flavoured rom, but downloaded a cab file which you won't need which oads the settings for mms and other such "treats" like that.
Have used black since 1.0 and think it's great, and continues to get better.

Help me,no wifi access on my dopod c720, urgent

i have just bought one 2nd-hand excalibur.It seemed normal at first but then when I got home, I access communication but I cant not turn on the wifi at any mean since there is no wifi icon on the screen. That's so helpless. Also, something weird that although i have the brand name of T-mobile but my rom is dopod c720 and it appear chinese word on the greeting screen everytime i boot up. I wondered that it is a fault rom, or it is because of my hardware. If it is cuz of my rom, can you guys show me how to modify or doing any mean to change to another rom. I am really annoyed with that chinese rom. Though i tried many way of flashing another rom but it always gives out the message of invalid model. Any help then. plz plz plz you guys. Really urgent. I am a bit regret of buying this "smart phone".
is it no way to help my belove c720. Or am I being fooled by buying the fake stuff
You might want to try to Hard Reset your device and see if the Wifi would be fixed..
How to Hard Reset?
Start - Accessories (Expert) - Clear Storage - Enter 1234
Hard Reset will wipe out all your data residing on the phone memory, so better backup first before proceeding. Data on the the Storage Card will remain intact and safe with a Hard Reset.
the hard reset was also tried out ages ago. But it seems not work
Just my 2 cent. in China they have no Wi-Fi version of Excalibur sold everythere. It appears that your device has been flashed with Chinese version . You shoud consider flashing your handset to firmware with known WI-FI support in it. I hope it helps.
P.S. Lets hope that your device didn't come from China and has no Wi-Fi chip in it at all. What is the model number of your handest? You can locate this information under the battery.
Good luck!
so i have to remove the battery first then look at the back of my excalibur. Then, which signal give me the information that it come from China or not. Does it have stuff like made in china or sthing like that. By the way, thx you guys very much for devotedly ansewred my questions. I'm newbie here so I need lots of help from u guys

Hello djlinh, I don't know if this helps you or not, but I bought my dopod C720W, (new) in Thailand and it comes with two languages that you can switch between, (English and Chinese). Just check your "SPACE" key to see if it has some Chinese letters, (in blue) on it. That's the way mine came. In any case my Wi-Fi worked fine with the original dopod WM5 ROM. I have since switched to the Russia, (WM6) ROM it working just as well, if not better. By the way I would recommend the Russia ROM . I've been using the Russia ROM for awhile now and to tell you the truth, I could care less if dopod comes out with an WM6 upgrade or not. I can't see it being any better than the Russia one. If you do go for the Russia ROM upgrade. I would suggest you read the various threads of this very helpful site and make some notes first. It will make things go a lot smoother for you. Cheers and good luck!
so can you guys get me a valid rom to flash. I tried to flash many of them but it became a failure. Can you do me a favor that give me a link work for my excalibur.

I own a Dopod C720 which is the version without WLAN. I know that the C720W has WLAN. Is it really a matter of the chip or could it just be based on the firmware whether WLAN is enabled or not?
In addition, I wish to flash the C720 to an all English version. The current version on my C720 is the Chinese/English version. A limited number of applications still only appear in Chinese characters in the English setting. Can someone tell me which version I need and where to get it from(send it)? I downloaded some RUUs but it seems that does not do the trick. e.g. there is still the Chinese operator logo which I do not like.
Thanks
Joscha
