Well the question is in the title!
1. First of all is this possible?
2. If I did do it, would I end up with a sim locked phone?
3. Is any additional software required to do the upgrade?
4. And more importantly, what, if any? benefits would I see using the latest Orange ROM over the latest O2 ROM????
Thanks in advance for any replies
Orange Rom on XDA Exec
Yes its possible. I have it for about 3 weeks - push email, if you open the extended rom you get huge amount of free program memory compared to the O2 Rom. No Simlock. Very satisifed really.
Thanks Daveyc for the reply, can you specifically answer the questions though? :? What I mean is were you upgrading a O2 XDA EXEC? And if so did you require any additional software to perform the upgrade (obviously orange rom aside!!) Thanks
Orange Rom
Yes I do have an XDA Exec bought in the UK and no I didn't need any additional software except the ExtRom viewer and unhider - and also the separate Radio Rom 1.09. For the OS itself its just a regular upload. David
Hi can anyone tell me which is the latest Rom for the O2 XDA exec on the O2 network?

Upgrade
Hi can anyone tell me a few things
1) i bought the xda executive from O2 so i have their rom and features installed on mine.
2) if i want to use a 3 network card on it can i use it? where can i get the internet setting for the 3 network? and do i have to upgrade the rom to a 3 network or not?
3) if i want to use a vodafone sim card on it then would it be better if i upgraded the rom to a vodafone rom or should i just leave it to the O2 rom?
Thank You,

Missing camera application
I have a new Exec and I have the latest ROM version as displayed on the O2 web site. When I install using the Corporate option (code 0506) and the great O2_Exec_Connections_Only CAB. But the camera application seems to be missing (or components of it). Has anyone else found this and is there a solution? Do I have to do a full install and then delete the O2 junk?

Does the camera show up in the other install options?
I didn't even bother with the O2 junk, I just reset the device at the "wait 3 seconds" part so none of the O2 stuff was installed and my camera works fine.
Missing camera application
DavidT
Many thanks for your response. It turns out the ROM image was faulty. So, however many times I re-installed or in whatever configuration, the camera application was missing bits. So, I downloaded the latest ROM image and re-installed. Everything works fine now.
Like you, I avoid the O2 stuff.
I don't have an O2 number either, so how can I download the ROM?
any help guys?
Thanks

Hello, I have recently bought a XDA II Model no. PH10B, ROM Ver 1.72.00WWE, Ext Rom 1.72.181.
My questions are:
Q1: I had ext rom 1.72.187 before, Whenever I clicked on O2 Active-->Connections, it always showed the country as Germany [checked]. Whenever I change that to UK, it reboots but then comes back to Germany. I downloaded Rom from O2 official site thinking that might fix the problem. It downgraded the ext rom from 1.72.187 to 1.72.181 but did not fix the problem. I am wondering if you can help me with it.
Q2: I have been using Tesco Mobile Sim on my old D500 phone, when I bought this phone I changed over the sim, everything works except the internet. I called Tesco to find out the settings but their tech support said I cannot use internet on this phone. I know Tesco is a reseller customer of O2 and uses same settings. My question is, is there anyway I can use my XDA II using Tesco sim to browse the net?
Q3: I am downloading new ROM Windows Mobile 5 v1.60a + Ext ROM 2.20from [http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/PDAforum_posts.asp?TID=361&PN=1]
will this solve my country and internet problem?
waiting for your kind reply
Kind Regards
Jay

Re: 02 xda exec no gsm
Hey mates, sorry for the late reply, wuz busy flashin'
Don't bother so much. It would b very difficult to send a 58 or 59 Mbs file thru e-mail (if you are gonna be sendin' it in parts or somethin')
Just go to www.buzzdev.net, click on downloads, then ROMs and you will find a big collection of official ROMs of almost all the vendors, they have all 3-4 ROMs for O2 XDA Exec. THANKS TO Sarah for givin' me this info And yes, you gotta register yourself to download. Will take not more than a minute. That's really a nice website, started by buzz_lightyear, member of XDA Developers community.
Sarah sent a PM, b'cuz she thought that postin' the links of ROMs here is not allowed b'cuz XDA Developers have stopped hostin' the ROMs, removin' all the old ones.
And to sixtus about No GSM, try flashin' that may resolve it. Also try searchin' in xda-developers, there are some threads for No GSM. Good Luck.

If you have already changed the battery, and didn't help, and there is no particular application causin' this, then you should flash the ROM.
Go to the link given above, download upgrade 1.30.162, for O2 XDA Exec. (I presume that you are usin' Universal, right ?) Flash the current ROM with this one. I'll suggest that your device should be 100% charged(till the green LED lits up), then flash the ROM. After successful flashin' we need to recalibrate the battery. Finish the battery, by turnin' on WiFi, Bluetooth, play music etc. When the phone goes off, press power, backlight and reset button at the same time to enter the bootloader mode, then wait for the phone to switch off by itself(b'cuz of empty battery).
Then plug in the wall charger(not USB charger) to charge, charge it to 100%, till green LED lits up. In the course of chargin' switch off the battery consumin' functions, like WiFi, Bluetooth etc. Go to Start > Settings > Beam > uncheck Receive all incoming beams. Set power and back light to automatically go off after 1 minute and 30 seconds respectively. Charge the phone till green LED, then soft-reset and done(at last)
Then test the phone by usin' it normally, as you usually do, the battery performance should be better. I know, this is too much and hectic to do, but try it. My personal experience and Wiki, this would resolve.
And plz lemme know the results.
Adieu..

Hi i need to find wm 5.0 for o2 exec. do anyone got it?
me too MOD EDIT: REMOVED EMAIL
Hi Guys,
I am in a big fix. I bought the XDA Stealth a few months back and a couple of days back performed a ROM upgrade provided by the 02 website ( Xda Stealth ROM Upgrade (ENG) WWE_RM2_061208 ). The problem is that, I like an idiot took a backup on Pocket Ghost (default program provided by phone) before upgrade. And now after ROM upgrade i am not able to restore the phone so now i need to revert back to old ROM. I tried calling O2 helpdesk but i dint get any help there. All my contacts and important messages are in that backup file. Is there anyone who has a copy of the Factory ROM? (WWE_RM060921 i think or WWE_RC061128).
Pleasssssssssse helpp meeee..
can somebody help??
TRY THIS ....BEST OF LUCKS
