Can I upgrade a Malaysian XDAII with a UK ROM update?

Hi all,
I've checked out the forums but can't find a direct answer to this, and I'm sorry if it has been discussed before.
I bought an XDAII whilst I was in Malaysia, and now having returned to the UK I find that GPRS and various other phone components won't work correctly (I have checked the settings and just can't enter all of the correct settings provided by my service provider Vodafone).
My questions are:
1. Does anyone know how to correctly set the GPRS settings for a UK network on an XDA from the far east?
2. Would applying a UK XDA software upgrade solve the issue or are there differences in the hardware in different parts of the world.
3. Can the UK upgrade be succesfully applied to an Asian XDA, or will it (as I fear) render the phone useless?
Many thanks for the help.
Rory

Yes you can do that , I already have XDAII from Malaysia and i upgrade it to O2 UK ROM the new ver.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks 'pqft'.
Do you have any problems connecting to GPRS for email and MMS? I am with Vodafone, and can connect for internet exploring, but cannot send or receive emails, no MMS messages. Any ideas?
Thanks
Rory

did you put in all the settings for pop3
and for mms ?

I have a malaysian vers too,and MMS and Email work perfectly with my Italian provider...but i'm unable to upgrade my phone with the O2uk new rom, i get a COUNTRY ERROR CODE.
Any hint?

MDA Pro German unlocked; UMTS still only works with T-Mobile

Hello,
thanks to buzzdev's great tool (you are the greatest!) my MDA Pro German now accepts all SIM cards. However, with every SIM card I tried (Eplus/BASE, o2 with UMTS enabled) I never get access to UMTS, even in the center of my town. With the T-Mobile SIM however, UMTS works immediately. Has anybody else experienced this problem? I also tried to hard reset and skip the customization.

i also have bought a german mda pro and unlocked it. i am using it in austria and umts works correctly.

Maybe you should check if the other providers:
- supports UMTS
- your connection settings are right
- you need a special account to use UMTS
- UMTS is available in your area with that provider
If T-Mobile enabes UMTS for you doesn't mean all providers do.

Yes, I ordered the UMTS option which caused all my SIM-Cards to be replaced by USIMs. The town I live in is medium-sized (300,000 inhabitants), and I checked about eight places - no success. (Typically, UMTS is available in every German town which has about 50,000 inhabitants or more)
What happenes is quite weird: When I switch the phone on, enter my PIN and connect to the network, the UMTS Symbol ("U") appears for about one or two seconds. Then it disappears, the connection gets lost, and the phone reconnects by GSM. It seems that the phone (or the provider?) throws me out just after a successfull UMTS connect.
I also verified that the GPRS/3G connection is set up correctly (APN surfo2, no username and password).
Greetings,

you probably already have checked the radio band settings, but its worth a try. have you enabled umts band in telefon - einstellungen?

Yes, UMTS is not disabled; I also tried "WCDMA only", but then no connection can be established.

hmmm, have you tried a hardreset and/or a new/different rom?

Yes, I thought that maybe there was some stupid locking in the T-Mobile GER ROM, so I used the latest Qtek German ROM, I also tried the O2 XDA Exec Launch ROM (UK), but nothing changed.

Are you sure there should be no username/password ? http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html suggests that it should be guest/guest.

Yes, the website you mentioned is a bit outdated. The official o2 Website (Germany) http://www.o2online.de/o2/kunden/technikundeinst/umts/tools/manuell/index.html states that username/password are "nicht notwendig" (=not necessary).

Ah well, I thought it was worth a mention.
Good luck

i guess the question for another radio rom is obsolete.
so i think your last solution is to get a contract with tmobile j/k
im sorry, i think i wont be able to help you....

Unfortunately they only speak russian... they don't have this phone here as yet and they dont seem intrested in helping me when my russian speaking friends tried to ask on my behalf...
Anyone from Kazakhstan on the beeline network here?

Im suprised they just did not give you there apn they do not need to have the phone u just need the settings did u try google

I've managed to find this much, but not sure if it's enough as I know there are a lot of different settings under the APN options for the Desire.
Operator
Beeline
APN: internet.beeline.kz
Username: internet.beeline
Password: [blank]
Leave all the other APN options set at default (this seems standard across networks)
Set the APN type to 'default'.

[Q]Did anyone knows the APN settings of Vodafone India for Desire?

I'm in India now and using Vodafone India's service. But I can't connect to GPRS network.
I'd activated the Vodafone Mobile Connect and Vodafone Live by dialing 111.
And I'd try every APN settings I can find by Google, but none of then works...
I'm using the InsertCoin 1.08 GB sence ROM
My current APN settings:
Vodafone Mobile Connect, I only fill this info shown blow
Code:
Name:Vodafone Mobile Connect
APN:www
APN type:[default,hipri]
Vodafone Live:
Code:
Name:Vodafone Live
APN:portalnmms
Proxy:10.10.1.100
Port:9401
APN type:[default,hipri]
Now I found CMCC may not be the only the world's worst operator

Maybe trivial, but have you contacted Vodafone Customer care?

My setting is correct.
The reason is Vodafone didn't activate the mobile connection for me though I had call their customer care number to ask for activate
Thank you
