I'am new to all this and was wondering if its worth updating my XDA IIs these are the settings
Rom Version 1.31.00 WWE
Rom date 12/13/04
Radio Version 1.06.00
protocol version 1337.38
ExRpm Version 1.31.139 WWE
Could anyone let me know if there are any benefits, also how easy is it to update, ie can anyone explain in basic terms as I have never done this sort of thing before, also if it all went wrong what would be the worst case senario.
Is there a simple program that does all updates?
Thanks in advance
Hi Popupstands
I upgraded mine a few weeks ago from the O2 ROM like yours to the config detailed below. Have found that this ROM is a bit more stable and has better control over wi fi switching than my old one. still have the same old bluetooth connection problems. You will also have to modify the below EXTENDED ROM to replace the caller ID file with an older version to avoid GPRS disconnect problems...
before you do anything, you should read ALL the INFO at following wiki link
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
On a practical note, if you are reasonably happy with the stabilty of your device then the upgrade may not be worth it for you. I believe the official O2 rom update is imminent, so you may want to wait for that..
Hope that helps
Regards
Chris

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

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.

hey guys
this is my first post here so i just wanna say how much information i have learned from this site and the forums. and i haved used the search function but after hours came up with nothing.
I have a MDA PRO Running the latest T-Mobile Rom, but its causing me so many problems.
It Takes forever to answer a call(around 10 secconds after ive pressed answer) it takes ages to open any applications. its just slow.
i was running the Imate rom before and was really happy with it. but there are some features that have come in the new t-moibile rom that i would like to keep such as the green battery icon and the "Soft Key" Application.
So i was thinking of only upgrading the extrom and the radio.
My current config is:
ROM VER : 1.30.114 WWE
Rom Date: 04/13/06
Radio : 1.10.03
Protocol Ver: 42.44.p8
EXT ROM VER : 1.30.232 WWE
I was looking to upgrade to either the QTEK or the IMATE rom b ut i wanted to know if ill still have the green abttery indicator and "soft Key" application as im not sure if they come with the rom or the OS. if not can anyone tell me where i can get them from plz.
Also alot of ppl are saying that radio 1.09 is the most stable, can anyone confirm this please.
Cheers guys
You will not get those features with the currently available Qtek or i-mate WWE.
I do however, have a suspicion (my spidey sense is tingling) that there will be new ROMs from within the next month and a half.
In the meantime, feel free to cook up your own. :lol:

I've had no issues with 1.09 radio
Hi,
I got my MDA Pro last week, there was some weird problems with it where it would drop the signal rate everytime someone called.
When I called T-Mobile I was told I should update it, which I did...then MMS functionallity disapeared etc..
So my question now is, which ROM is the best to use with it...and where can I find it?
Cheers.
Hi Jeuk,
I followed the t-mobile site and downloaded the update (it ends up coming from some t-mobile subdomain on 3rd part site, can't remember the URL, sorry, but hunt around)
I've found it great, fast and stable (as long as you reset when it says it's installing the customisations - you can pick and choose the cabs you install, i'd recommend the mms/gprs settings more than anything else - search on here for the t-mobile cabs, or get the extended storage unlocker and install from there using total commander (also search here for these things - this site is a great resource). You don't see many complaints from t-mobile users here, I suspect they've actually pulled out all the stops and been one of the most reliable resellers of this phones.
but my GPRS is great, coverage is fantastic, bluetooth profiles all in there (including a2dp [sp?]) for bluetooth stereo with a moto hs820), fast running, few resets. All I have of the t-mobile branding is the awful colours on the case of the device. that horrible pink-tinged plastic down the button strip. really. I mean, really.
maybe I should add:
ROM: 1.20.32 WWE
ROM date: 11/16/05
Radio: 1.06.00
Proto: 42.40.P8
ExtROM: (I erased the extended rom.. crazy radical reinterpretation of READ-ONLY HTC)

Would you like to help me build a single CAB file for T-mobile settings?
I would like to take a stock WM5 install, and then include the Qtek dialer and T-mobile settings.
This should provide a very clean build. :idea:
Anyone who knows how to build a settings CAB file, your input would be greatly received!!
Latest TMobile ROM
In the latest TMobile ExtROM has anyone done a breakdown of what each of the CAB files does? ESpecially interested in those that configure the MMS settings and GPRS
Thanks
Re: Latest TMobile ROM
I found the thread that describe the cabs in the 1.12.126 rom, here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32839
i'd imagine most of the names and descriptions are the same.

Hi,
Thanks for all the replies, still having problems after the "latest greatest" update. I got the update from http://t-mobile.iris-global.com/
The MDA still hangs up on 80% of the calls, especially if you spin the screen before answering.
ROM version: 1.30.114 WWE
ROM date: 04/13/06
Radio Version: 1.10.03
Protocol Version: 42.44.P8
ExtRom Version: 1.30.232 WWE

Hi,
Have been the owner of the M5000 for about 4 months and have a good relationship with it - well apart from being a little slow switching between portrait and landscape.
I dont have any issues with using it for PDA or phone calls.
But, looking at my device information:
Rom: 1.13.49 WWE
Radio: 1.03.0
ExtRom: 1.13.130 WWE
I think this is an old ROM.....
Have any of you upgraded from this ROM and noticed a big difference with your device? or is it best left as it is?
Sorry for a wishy washy question - but i dont want to potentially trash my device with upgrading if its not really worth it.
Thanks
Matt
hi,
i'm using 1.30.90 WWE rom and it's very stable but i saw that Orange has released a new Rom and Radio upgrade a few weeks back so i guess if you want to, just get those. I'ts meant to provide support for push e-mail. Just be sure that you have Bootloader 1.00 or above.
Greetings! I am new here and I recently bought an xda exec here in china. Problem is, the exec was loaded with a chinese rom because it was intended for chinese users so i asked the seller to make it in english. It seemed they had a problem with changing the rom, Im not really sure coz i cant understand half of what theyre saying. After a long wait, I was given an exec with a dopod rom.
Now having a different rom from the supposed manufacturer's one, it seems my unit has a few errors, for example im frequently having a sddaemon (which i found out has something to do with the contacts list) and sddialer (which i think has something to do with voice dialing) errors. Another thing I have a problem with is, the boot screen, since it was loaded with a dopod rom, it says "dopod enjoy mobility" at the boot screen. I feel kinda uneasy with it, simply put, i dont like it.
Also, I think my problems would be solved by flashing a different rom, but im not sure what to use tho. Actually, I want to use a 'proper' o2 rom because i like to have the boot screen back to o2. Yet, it seems everyone is suggesting the JasJar rom, do you think i should use the JasJar rom? If so, How can i change the boot screen to the o2 one?
For anyone who can help, Advice on how to address my problems is very much appreciated. I tried searching the forums but i cant seem to get how the search function working. I humbly ask guidance and advice to my problems and a proper redirection is highly appreciated. thanks in advance!

Also, I'm also considering upgrading to WM6. Is it advisable to upgrade to WM6?
WM6 has a better looking than WM5, and most of the software are newer.
If you want stable, you can use WM5, most of the new ROM are all for the WM6, I am also a user in China, I am now using WM6 with a chinese language supporting package.
How unstable is wm6? Does wm6 have features or anything to offset the instability?
@XingYun: are you using an english rom with chinese text support or is your rom purely chinese? Im thinking of copying your setup, would you advise it?
BTW, my Device information says the ff:
ROM version: 1.30.111 WWE
ROM date: 04/06/06
Radio Version: 1.04.02
Protocol Version: 42.37.P8
ExtROM version: 1.13.188 WWE
Any more help and advice is very welcome
Later builds of WM6 for Universal isn't really unstable. It's actually better. There's only one problem. NO VIDEO CALL.
You can get the latest WM5 ROM here:

Use the Search facility... It really helps.
Ok, ive decided to upgrade to wm6. Since I want to have an o2 boot screen, should i use the o2 rom from the jwright link? Will it be compatible with my unit even tho I am running a dopod rom? All I need to do is follow the directions from the wiki :
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...tion On How To Upgrade with Bootloader method
Am I correct? Sorry for sounding like a n00b, but I'm quite scared of making a mistake, so I want to be extra sure and extra careful. Advice and help is appreciated. thx.

Finally upgraded with Jwright wm6 rom, works fine now, thx everyone.
Hi, HProvider
Could you tell me where did you find the chinese language support package?
Mine does not work well with the Jwright ROM.
Thanks!
