looking for upgarde for the xda2i

I have a xda2i with the following info
ROM version 1.10.00 WWE
ROM date 12/24/04
radio version 1.00.00
protocol version 1337.39
ExtRom 1.10.124 WWE
I am looking a for a upgraded version if anyone can help... it would be great if there was a wa to get rid of the o2 custom stuff on the xda too i dont like that too much can anyone help
Acid

At the moment there are no updates for the XDA2i but there is rumours of one in the pipelines... if its true or not remains to be seen but we can only hope.
As for removing the customised crap just do a hard reset (you'll loose all your stuff) , press power + reset.
Then when its installing a box will appear asking "Personal" or "Corporate" user, choose the corporate option and enter the password "0506"

hi
at the moment the only newer rom from our factory rom is that of pda2k.. do a search for my posts and in there you will see where to get it and how to get past the country id error..

Danny-B- I didnt see the box will appear asking "Personal" or "Corporate" user it just says will customize my xda in 3 seconds and i cant do anything to stop it and i cant even uninstall the software it is linked into everything.. its really annoying and this o2 thing is just eating up memory and space... can you help

Are you sure you didnt miss it ?
Im sure it auto installs personal user if not selected within a certain time.
The best thing to do would be, Hard reset it, then just sit and watch it install till it gets to the choice point.
Another thing that might be slowing your device down can be the SD card if its over 512Mb , the XDA 2i sems to have a slight problem with them and slows everything down, well it does in my case anyway.

XDA2i & WM2005 ?!?
HI !
I´m using the XDA2i / O2-Germany with WM2003SE..
ROM 1.11.01GER
Ratio 1.03.00
Protokoll 1337.42
ExtROM 1.11.132GER
I´ve tried to upgrade to WM5 but...
HimaUpgradeUt.exe 1.2.0.0
nk.nbf 1.50f
WM 2003 ROM Image Editor 1.4.26
the firste tries I´ve got ERROR: wrong device, so I changed the devicetype from PH10 to PH10C like written on start-settings-deviceinformations...
I´ve tried again...
I started HimaUpgradeUt.exe and after a few sec. the screen say´s "deviceinformations: XXX
XXX
ROM XXX
Image info´s XXX
.....
if I press UPGRADE the massage "don´t remove USB & power" appiers then a new screen with the status for the upgradeprocess....
BUT... after 20 sec. I always get ERROR 101 (connectionerror).
- any idea ?

The XDA2i does not support the leaked WM2005 it only works on the XDA 2
Although the devices look the same the internal hardware is different.

The XDA2i does not support the leaked WM2005
sad to hear that...
ok, thank you but do you know if it´s possible to get an upgrade in the future ?
do you know where the problem is? (Image ore Updatesoftware?)
???!!!

The problem is that the software (wm2005) has to be custom made to suit the hardware in the phone so ... HTC - the makers of the phone or O2 would have to "build" the software for the phone.
Its because all the correct drivers and such have to be correct for the device to function.
But you never know, it might be a possible upgrade in the future, youll just have to wait and see.

Upgrade for XDA2i
Ok, I´ve found an original Upgrade-Tool & the Rom-files from o2UK....
My next Problem is the Password to edit the nk.nbf to chage the Image...
I´m using WM 2003 ROM Image Editor 1.4.26
Xda IIi ROM v 1.10.124 (43.6MB) - english
AlUpgradeUt.exe 2.0.0.1
when I start the upgrade I always get the
"ERROR 120: COUNTRY ID ERROR".... that´s because I have the
o2 - Germany device...
Can somebody help me to findout the right password for the Rom-editor ?

Overhaul XDA2i - Any suggestions ?

Hi Guys !
I've been going through this forum since I got my XDA2i a couple of months ago. I have the following config :
ROM 1.10.00WWE
ROM Date 12/24/2004
Radio Version 1.00.00
Protocol Version 1337.39
ExtROM Version 1.10.124 WWE
Model No PH10C
I wanted to know if there is a possibility of better versions of these, even if they are of other models/manufacturers, to be put together on 1 XDA2i and make it work like one helluva machine ?
Can you recommend / attach the files to this question and tell me a little more about it as I am a non techie !
cheers
Prattz

you can get the new rom version off the o2 website .just follow the links

My extrom is blank should there be something there ?- it seems to work ok.

Guys,
Thanks for the inputs, the reason I have put the question up is that I have seen people having higher versions of the various stuff. They've got ROm from somewhere and Radio stack from somewhere else etc.
1. I wanted to use your expertise in creating an all powerful tool.
2. Add Blackberry functionality as was advertised earlier by O2, what
a let down now that they've removed all mentions of the blackberry.
Would really appreciate help in this regard.
cheers
Prattz

There are two upgrades i know of ... one is the new I-mate upgrade, which came before the O2 one and has a newer Radio version .
BUT
the newest upgrade is the O2 upgrade, even though it doesnt have an upgraded radio.
A solution is to use the Rom "pug" posted, which uses the O2 upgrade but also includes the i-mate radio version.
You get the latest, and best of each so .... heres the link ... ftp://xdaupload:[email protected] XDA_IIi_Upgrade_v1.11.162 Radio_1.3.rar
I suggest you read through this 3 page thread first though as it will give you all the advice you need.

New owner help required

Hi
For my sins I have upgraded?? to a MDAIII. I have found this site due to few problems, BT, backlight settings to name a few and I have noticed a few members, have got upgraded specs than I have. Can someone help re my current specs, as to what they are and if I need to have them. Thanks in advance.
My phone is 2 weeks old!
Model PH20B
Rom 1.06.00 ENG
Rom date 8/5/04
Radio 1.00.00
protocal 1337.30
Extrom 1.06.167ENG
1GB storage card with tomtom 5
PS why cant I send anything via BT except files and why does it switch off after exiting TT?
Thanks again

Sorry to say this but you need to read wiki.

Don't be Scared
Hi There..
As MDAIIIUser states, read Wiki.. (The link is posted in the top LH corner of all windows on this site..)
Once there, Follow the required instructions..
I have to say, if you feel like you need to post such questions then perhaps you shouldn't be thinking of upgrading your MDA3..
ie, if it ain't broke, don't fix it! :lol:
Also, I recommend doing searches on items before requesting help as you'll find that someone has probably asked the question before and someone such as MDAIIIUser has come up with the answer.
Hope this helps..?

Just connect your device to the pc. Then on your mini's screen it will be written USB and etc. AS shouldn't be green. Now you can try to reflash

with a shipped rom (.exe file on your PC) or follow the instructions for SD card upgrade. You'll need a copy of your own rom though and transfer the first 416 bytes or so on the downloaded rom-image.
By the way how did you break it? Shipped rom, SD-card or ...?
Cheers, M

O2 Orbit Original WM5 Rom 1.25.206.2 found - SD card image

Hello Everyone, Have spent 6 Days hunting for "O2 Orbit Original WM5 Rom ARTE200 1.25.206.2" with little success
I am now putting a bounty on the head of this ROM in the form of a £40 Paypal transaction. I will make instant Payment after the ROM has been verified as the genuine ROM and then make the ROM available to all though Rapidshare, and with some luck help to un-brick a lot of O2 Orbits before O2 UK WM6 is released.
Contact me on [email protected]
Problem caused by - Updating ROM without running USPL on a CID Locked O2 Orbit, The device is USB Bootloader contactable but requires the identical original ROM to restore "Error 244 Device ID"
Many thanks to everyone for their continued help and support.

MOD EDIT - SEE POST 12 OF THIS THREAD

the only way you will find this rom, is either on o2 xda website after a WM6 update and hopefully they will do this as a downgrade option after upgrade to wm6.
or
the only other way is to know someone who works for o2 uk, there repair centre will have the only copy, and the only way to maybe even get a copy, is if you are good friends with someone in that department.
currently, there is no rom, for o2 anyway, yet.
goodluck finding it though, you just never know.

There is already a dump availalbe, but no known way to bypass the bootloader security to load it.
How are the guys at IMEI-Check unbricking them? Either they have a WM5 O2 rom (which means it has leaked) or are they hot-swaping/reflashing roms, or using some vulnerability in the bootloader?
Just out of interest, does anyone have an XDA that has been unbricked by IMEI-Check and did it show any signs of being disassembled?

good guy!
thank you very much!

I would be very very grateful if this ROM appeared!

well, well...
not sure if i'm 100% if this is ground breaking stuff, but i just received my xda from o2 repair centre and when i went to put my sd card in phone there was one in it already from o2 which has WM5 image on it?!

This is indeed quite interesting, it is obviously a SD flash used for restoring the Orbit. If you could make an image of the SD card I'm sure there are many people here who would be eternally grateful.

well, this will be done as soon as i get home tonight, if someone is willing to host the file i will make it available,

I Just UNBRICKED my orbit with this
Hi. A BIG BIG THANX !!!!! I just unbricked my orbit with this. I tried to flash it with WM6 and failed to run the USPL and bricked it. Now using this original WM5 put it back where it was before I bricked it. I had usee Artemis USPL and replaced the RUU_USPL_signed.nbh with this and worked like a charm from boot loader. (record button and softreset) Now I can flash anything I want and bring it back if I brick it again. Thanx a lot. YeeeeeHa

Hey guys,
I'm new to this forum but I must say that I am very impressed abt the works done. I do have a very expensive brick!! Ya! Ya.. my orbit is a BRICK. well I didn't do it, A friend of mine did.. tried to flash WM6 mini O2 into the orbit and VIOLA!. A BRICK!! Well! I knew this wud happen but hey, it wasn't me who did it.Hence I'm in this forum day in day out. tried every possible thing. flashing with SD or MTTY, every thing U guys had offer but got the same device ID error. so far no hope, but am currently downloading the image thru rapidshare http://makus.folijka.pl/OrbitO2UK.rar. Have to get a rapidshare account though. Hope this works.... will post soon.... keep ur fingers crossed.
A Big Hug to step0011. for a hope.
And the rest for the XDA developers.. all i can offer is my wallet.cause I'm not a software developer, but am into hardware repairing. And I will post the results if any for u guys who keeps this forum alive and kicking.
cheers pof and to all.

Another happy WM5 Orbit user again. It has beena chore using an OLD spve200 for the last few weeks. Taught me a valuable lesson though.
Thanks for the up.

Bravo! And well done to the O2 service bod who forgot to take the MicroSD card out!
Now how do I use it? Put it on a SD card and switch on?

i just replaced the german rom file with the uk orbit one (renamed to match original) and then ran the update from windows (phone in bootloader via usb).
A little suprised it actually worked in vista!

Yippeeeeeeeeee!!!!
Fisrt of all whoever he is he owes step0011 40 bucks..
Lots and lots of thanks to step0011 for providing the ROM image and also to the guy who forgot to remove the SD card. He had made a lot of people happy.
Hi guys.
I did it. My orbit is alive and kicking. there is nothing to it, just download the ROM and run RUU. and VIOLA! good as knew.below are the details
bootloader (this is all I can see now but before when it was bricked it showed the GSM no. too )
IPL 1.25.0001
SPL 1.25.0000
Device information
ROM version: 1.25.206.2 WWE
ROM Date : 10/4/06
Radio version : 02.67.90
Protocol version : 4.1.13.28
ExtROM version : 1.25.206.10
Works like a charm. to think that I wud have to wait for official ROM release.
Now I can do anything I want. I can brick it as much as I can. and flash the WM6 ROM. Now I am thinking of tinckering with the ROM cooking steps u guys are telling abt. I'm going to customise my own ROM. . First of all to superCID the orbit. wish me luck.
much thanks to all who keeps this forum alive.
BRB.
