I think no-one has picked it up yet as I can't find trace of it in the forum but O2 UK has released a new ROM for the BA, XdaIIs.
I installed it - seems to be all right. Big improvements:
O2 Active UI v3.6.024 -well, seems to be more stable than previous versions
Bluetooth build 3900
Radio build 1.12
Windows mobile CE version 1.40
BlackBerry Connect v2.0
Removal of Photo Contacts
AND AND AND.... are you ready?
WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER 10! I am not joking. I've got it on my BA.
Strange O2 does not list WMP10 in the features of the new ROM.
Download it from http://www.my-xda.com/
You'll need your O2 number and IMEI to accessd the software upgarde section of the site.
Enjoy.

thanks anyway
sorry sorry
err... sorry!
In another thread on here (I can't remember which one) someone who works for 02 said that they've stopped selling the XDA2s due to 'system problems'. Strange they'd do that just after releasing a new ROM :S

chances are that they are clearing old stock for the new xda exec as they now have a new device, the upgarde is just an upgrade, even if they do carry on selling the 2s i dont think o2 have the brains to ship it with the new rom, they tend to leave customers to fend for themselves and if you know nothing about upgrading like us on here, you have no chance.
I have had my XDA IIs for nearly a year now and have been running the ROM version that came on it without too many problems, but i thought i would upgrade it to the newest version because of WM10, now that i have there is a problem with it that is REALLY bugging me; First, i have my brightness level low so as to conserve battery life, but when i use the camera it goes to full brightness which is not a problem, it is when i finish using the camera and close it down it stays on full brightness unless i go to the screen settings and change it back to how i had it originaly.
Does anyone know how to sort this? Thanks
If you look on the Wiki there is information as to how to obtain the camera.exe file from an alternate ROM which you can then copy over the new one.
I messed around with this when I tried upgrading to WM2005.

Will this patch work for WM2003 SE?
Its just an exe not a patch
Try it, (keeping your new one) and if it doesn't work then you can revert to original.
Didn't do anything, still got the problem.

YEAH, its from a 1.40 wm2003se rom originaly. 8)
rofl i didn't even notice winmedia 10 as i've been using pocketmusic the whole time but thanks for that.
I was trying to do the same thing, but half way, the phone automatically stop and now it would not start. It will only show Serial on the top of the screen and v2.07 on the bottom. If I put it on the cradle, the Active Sync could not recognize it and the screen will show USB on top and v2.07 on the bottom. Soft reset, full reset, removal of battery just would start it gaian. I don't have the desk top screen back. I cannot use it at all. Can someone out there please help???!!

ROM 1.40 crashed my Xda IIs
SAME HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can anyone help????????????????????????????????
Well i had this rom on my xda2s, i have now sacked it off and gone back to the launch rom and upgraded the radio stack and bluetooth myself. Got sick of having to reset the backlight manually everytime i used the camera! Not bothered about WM10, never use it, only use TCPMP for media. Wish i had done this in the first place!

Have you tried the guide on WIKI here? -> http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.42.00_Upgrade
Look under the heading "First Method (Quick/Easy) (TYPE II)".
This should help you restore your device!

Hiya All,
Sorry to be a pain in the ass, but i upgraded my phone to WM2005 and then downgraded to 2003 again. I cant seem to use the new O2 upgrade. It looks as if all is ok but when i check the system info the ExtRom Version is blank.

Hi There..
I'm not sure if the Orbit comes with O2 plus.. But I have the O2 plus meant for all devices. I'm sucessfully using it on my Dopod P800W.
Cheers.
Cheers thanks for the reply will give this a go.
ok tried this no luck its sayings its not designed for my phone.
are there any other ideas
You need to run the first file first.. then the patch file.
It worked for my Atom, rw6828 and the P800W.
Did ya miss out the patch file?
Thanks mask member that worked.
your a star.
catch you later.
What features does the O2 plus plugin give?
it gives all the features the best featureis the application manager, aswell as profile battery and memory meters.
if there any favour i can do please let me know
Thanksa lot for this. I like to o2 profile meter the best. Also if possible can you tell me how to get the o2 taskmanager at the bottom taskbar.
Thanks,
John
Hi All
As a new user of a Xda 2s I thught I would be clever and upgrade to WM5, I did this successfully and also added all the patches in only to find I was disapointed, when my Xda ran on WM2003se I had all the O2 software package and I could Video with sound and do a lot more, I did copy my old ROM is ther anyway to get everything back to how it was or is there a fix for the Video.
Thanks
Mark
Hi I have just got the new xda orbit phone and I need help in getting my tom tom 510 in the car, to use the xda to get trafic updates. Can any one help please. Ron
I'm a bit confused by what you are asking. Are you talking about a TomTom 510 unit or are you asking about running TomTom on your Orbit? Your Orbit will need v5.21 or v6.
Can you put Tom Tom Sat Nav on the O2 XDA orbit? Ive always fancied Sat Nav but never got round to buying one. If you can do it this way I would love to!

Oh yes. Make sure it's version 6.0.3 as this has some specific fixes in it for the Orbit. Once you have V6 installed if it is an older version than 6.0.3 then you can download the latest version from the TomTom site. Enjoy.
Moving the thread to Artemis.
