What do you think about this updating strategy? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi guys,
I'd like your opinion on this one...!
I bought a fresh SX66 (Details below) from Cingular.
What do you think about the follwing:
1 - I download the official firmware update from the Siemens website.
2 - I extract the files and replace the Radio ROM with the 1.13 Converted Type I file.
3 - I flash the unit.
Seems like a logical thing to me.
Is it? Or will I run into any problems that you suspect?
Thanks for your advice. I'll certainly read this thread before I go for it!

I have tried to perform Rom update from your link.... I get the File cannot be skipped. The file :"\Windows\IA_P_DspCID.dll" must be copied for the application to work correctly. Try copying again ?....
I have tried to copy but nothing happens..

Whats the BT Stack Version.Build in this ROM??
Hi Blackhorse,
Thanks for doing that.
Does your download include all the roms? - operatior, rom, external, radio, bluetooth etc?
If not, any chance of uploading the others?
Sorry if this is a dumb question - i've not down any rom upgrades yet so I dont know what's in there - i'm just looking at the version numbers on mine and the ones posted here!
Thanks

How can I reload the OS on Orange SPV M2000
I have erased all data with a ROM or Firmware upgrade and now need to reload it. Plrase advise
It looks like this is just the extended ROM, eg, the apps and customizations from Orange which are only installed when you hard reset your phone. This update only really applies to people who are Orange/M2000 users or people that can "cook" their own extended ROM.
If you need insturctions on how to install this, then search the forums for "Extended ROM Unlocking" or visit the recently updated ROM Kitchen via the links in http://wiki.xda-developers.com/.
Hope this helps,
Dom

rom update

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

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.

Dopod 700 - WWE. How to upgrade the ROM and Radio?

Hi, I really new into this. I spend nearly the whole day in ready everything written on this on your wiki web site, which seems to be excellent. I read and tried to follow the steps to download a new ROM, but did not succeed.
I bought a DOPOD 700 in Taiwan in English version, and I don't know where I can find an upgrade version. I tried to go on the Dopod web site of Taiwan, but it’s in Chinese.
My current Device data reads:
PH20B 0 B WWE E DOPOD601 1.12.22 2 2 1.12.179 1.02.00 02.00
PH2OBO WWE E DOPOD601
ROM 1.22.22 WWE
ROM date 09/27/04
Radio version: 1.02.00
Protocol version: 1337.32
ExtROM 1.22.179 WWE
If I understand well after reading the section "how do I install an upgrade and what tools to use", I would need to download as follows:
"List of know Blueangel, sold as, Model ID, Operator code etc"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=81244#81244
http://www.clubimate.com/Support/PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP.exe
Download to
C:\XDA-Tools\PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP.exe”
But it does not work. I don’t have an Imate, so I cannot register on the Support Club and cannot get access to the file.
Did I make something wrong?
Thank you in advance for your help. PascalK
upgrading
So i guess you want to upgrade it to another original shipped roms?
1st download the ROM here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
Than follow the instructions over here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Downgrade_WM5
And for the radio also copy radio_.nbf from the 2003SE ROM to the "??Your_DIR??\Downgrade to WM2003SE" folder. At stap 2
Hope this will help you
Dear Rawish,
Many thanks for your advise. I have followed the procedure as indicated. I dowloaded the ROM and located the WM2003SE ROM. I prepared my PHB device as indicated, but then I met another problem:
It is written on the bootscreen of my Dopod 700 "Test Only - Not for sale - Qteck -". So I don't have access to the three options that are described in 3rd step of "BA_Dowgrade_WM5".
I guess that I am a victim of a crook in the IT shop of Taipei.
Or is there a possibility to remove this page to continue the upgrading process?
Thanks for any help. PascalK

I have imate jasjar, 1.30.76 wwe, 1.09.0, 1.30.164 extended rom. In my case I tried upgrade partially -only radio- many times using maupgradeuti_moid but never happen the upgrades... Times I have a brick to reinstall full rom and other times it is only disconected and need a soft reset. I think I loose some step, but I don't know which.
Strange.
Anyway I am not the inventor of the partial upgrade.
But I do follow "every single steps" in the following link which is also in my previous message and it works.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=269118
That is how I have upgraded my Radio from 1.11.00 to 1.13.00
If it still does not work with partial upgrade using maupgradeut_noid.exe, than do it by another way, that is,
- extract your original ROM (*.nbf)
- extract the ROM with 1.13.00 (*.nbf)
- do the mix and match on your PC in the extracted directory with any combination you want
- do a full upgrade with your own combination
By the way, for 1.09.00, I heard but never have used the Radio, is a good radio version.
I say even 1.13 is also as good as 1.09 in my case .
