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?

XDA IIs vodafone settings?

Now that it is easier to unlock these could anyone please tell me the vodafone gprs settings that they have found to work. Vodafone themselves only offer settings for the XDA and will not officially support the phone.
Thanks
p.s. for a contract phone UK not a pay as you go.

Here's what I got to work:
GPRS - using My ISP Setting:
Cellular Line
AP name - internet
User/Password: web/web
In advanced set the servers and DNS to auto.
Voicemail:
121
SMS Centre Number:
+447785016005
MMS:
Server name: vodafone
Gateway: 212.183.137.12
Port: 9201
Server address: http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms
Hope that help - and if anyone knows that any of the above are incorrect pllease let me know as I trawled the forum and various private web sites for them....
Cheers - Rich

Thanks I will try that, although I was told to use for GPRS 'Cellular Line GPRS' but will try your settings first.

Yeah - you are right - me trying to type too fast
R

or if you are lazy like me just run this cab file on your 2s

applecom - this cab installs all the correct settings just like that????
FANTASTIC!!
R

thats it no effort install thats what i like.
i do have more of them for different networks, and different settings for contract or pre-pay. (thats if they are different)
John

Cool...
Can you confirm that the settings I have above are correct then.. Does your cab do everything - mms, gprs, sms etc etc?
R

sms.. message centre number should be in the sim and is not part of the cabs
it will set the GPRS up and a seperate MMS AP if needed (again depending on the network)
these are not cab files i have made they are from imate and for the PDA2k
i use them all the time for XDA, XDA2 XDA2s/i etc etc
John

Hi Applecom
I am looking for Virgin & Vodafone PAYG settings please. Could you tell us where you got them from?
Thanks in advance

They come from the club imate site..
John

Hi John,
Thank you very much for answering so quickly. Could I ask one more favour. I have a friend who has the SPV C500 and is looking for the Virgin setting for his phone? I am not sure if I should give the file you gave me to him or if he requires another file specific to the phone?
Appreciate you help.

i would think the best thing is for you to install the virgin cab on your xda then look at the conections it makes, then use this info to set up the c500, then just run the voda cab on your xda to put it back to how you wont it
John

Sorry is is possible to get the Orange PAYG settings?
Thanks in advance. Will not trouble you with anymore.
Cheers

orange PAYG

Once again John, thank you very much for your kind help.

HTC Trinity connection to O2 - help needed

Could any of you good people help me connecting my HTC Trinity (an unlocked Orange SPV M700) to O2 GPRS or 3G?
I unlocked the phone & placed my O2 SIM in but do not know how to set it up to access the Internet via 3G
Any assistance would be great, thanks

Try putting "o2 gprs settings" in the search! ! !
It's there for a reason.

O2 UK 3G help appreciated.

Hello everybody,
I apologise in advance if there exists an answer elsewhere, but I have been searching for the past week to no avail. I'd appreciate if somebody could point me to the right thread/direction.
I upgraded from my stock mda vario2 rom, to the latest schaps (WM6).
Everything works ultra fine but I there is no 3G! I have tried a few different radios and right now i'm on 1.43. I still cannot make video phone calls. The icon is stuck on G. I'm in east london btw.
I believe my O2 uk settings are right though , to te best of my novice knowledge that is.
Again I apologise if this is already addressed in another thread or wiki. Mods, please delete my post if it is a repitition.
Appreciate any help.
Cheers!

you have a tmobile phone or an o2 phone? goto phone settings and check its set to auto

Thanks for the reply,
I have the t-mobile's mda vario2. Tried that already but its still on G.

i have the same problem with an orange 3100. it will only find G not 3G. i have even tried swapping sims but no luck. i have tried all the different settings cabs i can find but no luck

i'm using an orange spv m3100 with no problems on o2uk, and i had 1.43 until yersterday.
o2's signal seems to be inferior to that of orange; i.e. 3g reception not as good
for example i do not get a 3g signal at home on o2, but did on orange, however i do get a 3g signal outside and in other places (on o2)

goggle the site for the field test software.

Call O2 customer service and ask whether you have 3G access activated on your SIM card. I have bought O2 pay as you go SIM card some time ago and it did not access 3G at all, since the very beginning on any 3G phone. Somewhere on the receipt or SIM pack (don't remember now) I've found sth like 'SIM 2G' so that way I figured out card is not meant to log into 3G. But I never bothered to call CS anyway, as I very rarely use that SIM.

Thanks guys,
I'll try all ur suggestions, I did try swapping sims with my wife, hers is an O2 sim which actually has the letter 3G on it, but nope its still Ging on me. I will give O2 a call.
