Hiya everyone.
I had a search for this, and was unable to find the solution, so I apologise if this has been asked before.
Is it possible to revert my XDA 2's OS back to its original state after its been upgraded to WM 2005?
I only ask because I wish to sell my XDA 2, and there are certain aspects of the new OS that don't run properly (The 2 side buttons - camera and voice recorder no longer work, and I am unable to connect to the internet as the o2 settings were wiped, and they are unable to provide me with the manual details).
If this is possible, then great... if not, then I'll have to make do really (unless someone can offer assistance on the problems above?).
Oh just for reference, I used the guide on this forum to upgrade to WM 2005, so you can see the exact process I went through.
Thanks to anyone who is able to help.
Failing any help, can anyone post a rom of the OS in its original state for the o2 XDA2?? (with o2 Active, despite how many ppl hate it! lol)
I'd just like to get it back to its fully-functioning self again.

w00t! thanks dude ur a star!
I use a PVA III (or V1605 as others call it) - Vodapone's equivalent of XDA IIs. The keypad sliding mechanism seems is not working, as it doesn't click in at the end. Does anyone has opened/changed a BA case before or knows a link showing how to do it? Is it a easy fix or should I bring it to my local mobile phone repair shop?
Thanks a lot in advance. (sorry I am a newbie, so please keep the explanation in layman format, cheers.)
look in the WIKI

the iPhone is proprietary to Apple and so it can't be put on anything else. What you can do is put other things on your XDA to make it finger friendly in operation.
To remove just the O2 garbage, do a hard reset and then when it says "Customising in 3 secs", or something like that do a soft reset.
These questions and more can be answered if you look in the Himalaya/Andes sub forum if its an XDA II or the Alpine section if its an XDA IIi. To tell the difference, apart from the label on the front of the case, which may have been changed:
Go to Start - Settings - System - Device Info.
Select the "Identity" tab.
PH10B = Himalaya/Andes, can be upgraded to WM5 and WM6
PH10C = Alpine, cannot be upgraded but does include WiFi.
The best advice is to read through these forums, especially the device specific ones and also the "Development and Hacking" one for customisation.
Thanks a bunch! my sister-in-law retired her o2 xda 2 to me and I wanted to give it a nice "face-lift". I'll be trying out the stuff you've suggested, thanks again

anyone got any software lurking on there hard drive
If you make a Google search on "htc alpine stock rom", a few torrentz sites appear with what you might be after.
"htc Alpine rom Unbranded 68.79MB"
I can't verify whether it is of any use or not, as the sites are on our company's internet proxy server's black list.
