O2 i-Mode and the Universal - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Hi,
As you know if using O2, some phones are i-Mode compatible.
Does anyone know if there are any plans to the Universal i-mode compatible if indeed it is possible.
perhaps only O2 themselves know the answer.
Ebay have anounced an i-Mode deal with O2 for those desperate enough to place bids which walking the Alps.

As far as I'm aware the Universal will never fully work with I-Mode. However, there is an internal application; an I-Mode emulator. I'll have a look at it at work for you tomorrow if you wish?

What is this emulator like?
I know that NetFront-Browser is available as a beta for WM5, so this should enable us to browse i-mode contents on the portal.
But I can't find any note about a i-mail client, and that would be the thing I would find amazing...
These Push-Mails are the Killer-App, and there must be a way to force PocketOutlook to synchronize with a mail-server when the notification-sms arrives.
Does anybody know a plugin to do such?
At E-Plus in Germany every new mail in the i-mail account sends an SMS. The originator's phone-no is always the same, and the SMS seems to be empty. And it is not stored in the SMS-inbox of PocketOutlook.

Thanks Trapper & Schlangi for reply,
Older XDA's are supported by O2 so we live in hope.
I do not know if its hardware & software or just software that's required.
I suppose we need O2 to supply and support a fix or they will net let us have an i-mode tarrif?

sent my xda 2 to o2(uk) for repairs, returned UK Rom 1.66

This, I assume, is the very latest UK rom, I had 1.60 before that. Getting the machine tomorrow, will post exact rom then, however I do not know how to copy it and send it you guys, can anyone explain in the simplest term how to do this? I have XP, Thanks
out of interest, what was wrong with the XDAII?
Reply
it would freeze and only a hard reset could fix this when connected to a Socket SDIO card, this would happen every 3 or 4 days.

If it's arriving tomorow, how do you already know it's 1.66 mate?
And just for interest, I seem to recall that the GERMAN version of the O2 ROM was just released last week at 1.66 - I wonder if this is a version of this for a UK market, or if O2 are about to release 1.66 over here too.
Anyone know how he can 'reverse assemble' it from his device so he can share it?
i had the same freezing issues but my device was 1.66
but i'm pretty sure that the freezing was due to a 3th party program
been awhile since it froze last
and i doubt it could be a hardware issue since hardreset always works
Mikey Collins - keep us posted on the outcome when it arrives please...
What program caused the crashing ? PocketWinc?
And I know it is coming with 1.66 because I called them. Any idea what sort of programs could have caused this?

What sort of programs could have caused this? The new upgrade you mean or the re-flash?
Could be a number of things mate, though usually a hard reset will cure all your woes.
Let us know what the actual real numbers are, for your ROM, extended ROM etc, when it actually arrives, as what O2 say on the phone, and what happens in real life, are noted for how far apart they tend to be where O2 is concerened.
And there will be an awful lot of people interested in your info, so keep us posted.

I emailed O2 Data Support about this, to see when or if they were intending to release 1.66.
This is my reply back from them:
Hello Mr xxxxxxx,
Thank you for your email,
After querying this with our technical team, we would like you to provide
evidence of the Rom 1.66 occurring, as we believe this not to be the case.
If you are experiencing problems with your XDA, you can replace the device
under warranty via your customer services team.s
Regards,
Paul
O2 Data Support UK
So can you give us some more info, or reply to me off board Mikey? As I suspect it is YOU that is correct, and O2 wrong, and would like to challenge them over this.

how to unlock xda2 rom 1.60.00wwe
i use xda2 unlock.exe
and press yes
get massage phone already unlocked
so how to unlock latest version
or is there after downgrade something like that
waiting for serious reply
To add
It was the technical service team that updated my phone, they warned me about Data Support.... and now you see
new rom?
Sounds good if you are right, and yes i am as critical about o2 as the rest of you, but ive found that there is an easyish way to get through to o2 on the fones if u need sumthing, call their staff accounts people on
0800131211
and since its freefone (in the uk @ least, i guess they have this sorta service elsewhere) it dont matter how long ur on the fone with them.
neway, will it be possible to upload the rom to the site?
Smiley
They are all shipping with 1.66 now
my girlfriend just got a new xd2, same OM as mine.
My xda2 which I am selling on this site also came with the new rom after they replaced the motherboard. I dont know if its me but the screen seems so much better, on a par now with the ipaq 3900 series, bright, clear, good depth of colour etc. Its for sale in the stocking up section of this site if anybody is interested. £350 Uk.
I just purchased an XDA II yesterday, and it also came with ROM version 1.66.00WWE (Incidently, the ROM date shows as 20th Feb 04)

I repeatedly Emailed O2 about this, and eventually there response was that more recent versions of the XDA2 ship with a slightly different screen (hardware wise).
New drivers are needed for this, and this is the ONLY difference in 1.66, which is not available for public download.
I emailed them back to tell them what a load of old cobblers, and that it includes a Cleartype tuner and more.
They went decidedly quiet at that point.
Any chance that O2 have fixed the Handsfree dll problem in Version 1.66? Can you get mp3 / Tom tom audio etc. to come out of the bottom connector? (Many people have a problem with the XDA II that they can only get Phone call audio to go to the bottom connector, even though the T-Mobile ROM's apparently don't have this problem.)
You can use a tool provided free on this site in the tools and software section to download your ROM to an SD card, and I assume that it can also download it to your PC.
I'm by no-means an expert, but I've had a go at fiddling with it so far and this is what I've found...
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/CompleteTools
Follow the XDA Tools link and download the program, tell it to read the ROM from the device and Put it on your PC, then you can post it here.
I know this program worked with flashing the ROM from my XDA, never tried it with an XDA II though, although I will try it when I get home tomorrow.
There were a couple of more difficult to use tools provided for the XDA II that need you to log into the 'Bootloader' on the device using a command prompt (Like DOS) style program providxed by HTC (the manufacturers of the XDA and XDA II) but I can't remember where they were and I'm using my girlfriends crappy tinternet connection at the moment and can't be bothered to search the site. I'll have a more detailed set of instructions posted asap if I can find out how to do it all over the weekend.
Other than that, if anyone else can post details of how to do it, I'd be very grateful cos it all seems a lot more complicated with the XDA II to change the ROM than it was with the XDA.
Cheers,
Rom version 1.66.00 wwe
Guys be vvvvv careful when messing with this rom. If you attempt to update it to sort out the caller photograph recognition bugs you are in for a shock. Now you may already now which versions are the "older" versions but I did not and updated with the current official update from the O2 site. My XDA2 is now a one week old doorstop. Any suggestions anybody. I did back up to my SD card before the update but do not have a card reader...............yet!

O2 XDA IIs - is there an *official* ROM upgrade?

Wondering if there's an official rom upgrade?
Read a few scary stories about people ROM upgrading, so just wondered if there was an official upgrade which I *know* will work and not kill anything
Cheers
there is a 1.40 asian rom update, but as o2 in uk are crap, they havent released the upgrade yet.
they will only **** it up with that o2 active crap anyway, choose another 1.40rom, and folllow wiki, u cannot got wrong.
The latest one can be downloaded from the 02 website http://www.seeo2.com/ I just installed it and its working fine
think im being dumb, cant find it on seeo2.com
i know it must be in the o2 connect section somewhere...?
any pointers? cheers mate
Here is the link to the O2 Asia 1.40 ROM update.
http://www.seeo2.com/user/XdaIIs/template/XdaIIs_ROMUpgrade_Jun2005.vm
I think you will need to have a login and valid o2 Asia xda 11s device to access it. If you have an O2 UK xda 2s, you can still download and apply this update from here (our wiki site)
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.40.00_Upgrade
Hope this helps
Regards
Chris
Cheers Chris
Has anyone tried the wiki one with a uk xda 2s and can confirm its working a-ok?
Thanks again
Aslan
Hi Aslan
Yes, I have the O2 UK XDA2S and have loaded the Asia ROM (see details in my signature block] The only thing you may have to do after loading is to substitute the Caller ID cab file in the extended ROM. You only need to do this if you experience GPRS disconnects after upgrading, which is somewhat dependent on the operator/service provider you are with. Some work fine without the substitution. Who are you with?
Regards
chris
Cheers Chris - well I don't use GPRS so I'm alright I guess!
Although wondering if there's any way to do a backup which i can port over to the new ROM...too much stuff to reinstall!
Any ideas - sprite backup?
HI ASLAN
Backing up shouldn't be a problem... if you just have data you could use xback up or Sprite and back the data up to an sd card or your computer. Do you use Outlook, as that would be another way to do it via active synch. Let me know what you have to back up and I can better advise..
Regards

Hi mate,
Got all the standard contacts/calendar etc which I can do by synching. But also got some progs on:
Pocket Informant
resco file explorer
tomtom navigator
and a few skyscape medical apps.
other bits too but don't really mind having to reinstall those the above are the main ones i use.
Do you know if sprite backup backs up installed programs too? Been havin' a read of this:
http://spritesoftware.crmdesk.com/answer.aspx?id=63&back=browse.aspx#p17
So 02 finally released their 1.40 rom. cool
anyone tried it yet? does it install the dreaded 02 crap as well?
Is there a corporate mode to this rom as well so we can get rid of the 02 software?
does it have everything that the 02 asia rom has to offer?

Hi aslan
I do not believe that Sprite will be able to reinstate your programs. I do not know for sure, but think it unlikely after a reflash.. You could send then an e-mail to the ask a question link on the page you found to be sure though..

Hi alitech
The ROM discussed above is in fact the O2 ASIA ROM 1.40.923. You can load this onto your O2 UK XDA2s using the MAUgrade utility found here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.40.00_Upgradeon the wiki site, along with the WWE ROMS that are available. The O2 Asia ROM does not have the O2 Active interface, so no need for Corporate mode :wink: I guess that O2 UK will one day release its own 1.40 update for the xds 2s, which is rumoured to include a Blackberry client. Hopefully this will be before the xda2s makes it into the Science Musiem :roll:
Hope this helps
Regards
Chris
O2 UK - Most Bone Idle Organisation In UK!
Hi
I've been waiting for an official upgrade as well, but I think we will be waiting an eternity. O2 does not care about its customers one little bit - thats why we are all stuck with ancient, buggy roms while others enjoy the bug fixes in newer roms.
Many users, myself included dont have the time to fiddle around making foreign roms work.
I guess I shall have to bite the bullet and install the O2 asia rom, and prey the unit still works afterwards.
My contract ends next month, and after the 'O2 XDA IIs' episode I have had with O2, I shall never, ever pass any money their way again.
To be honest, I reckon you are far far better paying the extra money up front, buying an imate and choosing your contract yourself. They do tend to release updates in a timely mannar - which results in much less lost hair!!
The HTC universal looks nice, but there us *no way* I am gonna be paying that sort of cash for it!!
Nigel
Hi Veletron
Yes, I can't say I blame you. (and who came up with the idea to use light blue special character keys with a blue backlight I wonder?] I am actually thinking about switching to a !Qtek 9100, aka Wizard. They will be unlocked and available 5 Oct. Qtek have also been good with ROM updates I think.

Official WM6 has broken my TomTom PLUS subscription

guys,
I upgraded to the official ANZ WM6 ROM, and it has changed my TomTom device ID which means I now cannot use the Traffic service (I already changed the device a few months back when I bought my Trinity).
I mailed TT support and they say then need a letter from my phone manufacturer explaining that the internal device ID has changed with the new ROM. TomTom base their device ID on the internal device ID (according to their support folks).
Has anyone else encountered this issue?
Can anyone point me to an article or suggest a way to get some info from Dopod, HTC, or Microsoft about what WM6 does regarding device ID?
Thanks in advance.
Don't feel that bad It happened to me too. I contacted Tomtom guys and they were happy to give me a new code. But guess what, if you happen to do a hard reset and reinstall Tomtom, the code changes again. When I contacted Tomtom about this issue they said the following:
Dear Gilbert,
Thank you for contacting TomTom support regarding the difficulty that you are experiencing trying to install NAVIGATOR 6 on your PDA. We are glad to assist!
The new NAVIGATOR 6 is compatible with Windows mobile 6, although, it is not compatible with your HTC P3600. If you decide to install NAVIGATOR 6 on your HTC P3600 you may keep experiencing problems that we might not be able to assist you with. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
Thank you again for contacting us, if you have any further questions or comments, please e-mail or call us at 1-866-486-6866 Monday through Friday, 8:30 am to 7 pm EST.
Remember that at TomTom we believe in showing you the way, the easy way.
Best Regards,
TomTom support
______________________________________________________________
How lovely. I am already pissed about this as I cannot use my device with the current version for the Trinity.
Cheers,
Gilbert
thanks Gilbert- but that's terrible! I've had quite a few problems with TT6 going wrong on my P3600. Even when I downloaded the specific 6.03 revision.
At least you got somewhere with TomTom.
Do you have a support number I could give to them (as reference) by any chance?
cheers
I have Orange SPV M700 branded version of the Trinity which I bought off ebay & unlocked using tools available on this site & loaded the HTC 3600 rom. I loaded my existing TTN6 & had to reactivate but all went well as I was past 6 months since the 1st activation.
Anyway its been less than a month & I've now loaded the Dopod WM6 onto my phone but couldn't activate TTN6 due to new device code. I emailed TomTom on Thursday saying that I updated my Dopod D810 to official Dopod WM6 update. They emailed me new activation code today & all is working fine.
The Dopod ROM has a bug that changes the TTN Device Code; the other ROM's, official or otherwise don't seem to have the bug.
Once the new ROM is installed, the new Device Code ought to remain the same, even after a hard reset, but there will be problems if you later upgrade/downgrade the ROM, because the DC will probably revert back to the original one.
I've gone SPV M700 Orange -> HTC WM5 Official -> Mun-Rus WM6 SE and TE -> Dopod Beta WM6 (changed Device Code) -> Mun-Rus TE (Device Code reverted to original)
TomTom did offer me a new Activation Code, but required a copy of the device proof of purchase, and it took 2 weeks, so I reverted to the Mun-Rus ROM.
Your previous Device/Activation codes will all be visible on ttcode.com as long as you have your map Product Code so changing back to the original Device Code is OK for activating the maps. The problem is that even if you can reactivate the maps, TomTom Home will not let you revert to an older device association on your account, so even if TTN6 works, TT Home will not.
There is currently no fix for this- TomTom Support say they don't allow regression of account associations in TT Home.
For these reasons I've now abandoned TomTom in favour of iGO2006
Great another reason for not going down the Dopod ROM way.
It is not just TT... WM6 upgrade changes the Code of all my applications
Another way to approach it: each hard reset lets you download a new city map ;-)

There are a number of methods for generating device codes- based on IMEI, Owner Name, Device Name and other, deeper methods!
A lot of my programs have a new device code with each ROM, but the developers generally issue a new license without problems.
The trouble with TomTom is that previously, the Device Code has remained the same through all ROM updates, and they have linked their antipiracy policies to that. The recent problem with TT and device code changes has meant they have been caught off guard, and initially refused to do anything about it. I think the attitude is beginning to change, with the release of an 'official ROM' that changes the Device Code, but they still can't (or won't?) handle reverting your TT Home account to an older Device Code.
Don't sweat it!

guys thanks, BUT a few points.
1) My TomTom works fine- it is TomTom TRAFFIC which doesn't.
2) I really want an official HTC ROM (and anyway don't fancy resetting it again!).
3) My Italian is not so good, so it would need to be English ;-)
For these reasons I need TomTom to add my new device code to my account.
It's coming up to 10 days since I logged the call- I've had lots of responses, asking for a letter of proof, and saying it has been reset (but it still doesn't work).

hello
like everybody , since i have upgrade to WM6 , my device code has changed.
So my traffic option doesn't work anymore
but where is the problem ? i have only changed this device code on the site tomtom.com and now i can use this option in WM6
perhaps i don't understand the thread , but why have you write to tomtom ?
Regards
hi - you can only change the device code ONCE every 6 months.
Then you have to write to support.
I bought my Trinity a few months back, and changed from my M600....
ach so .......
oups ...
so if i want to reverse back to WM5 , i have to wait or write to tomtom
thank you for this information
exactly :-(
I don't understand TomTom's logic.....

How add Blackberry function to our Trinity

After a long period of very use of my trinity , updated to the various updated ROMs, used to have a lot of power in my hands and a lot of applications and functions , now my Boss force me to use , as separate device , a blavkberry 8700 .
What a stupid device is it in comparison !!
I read some thread about BBconnect , but could anybody help to find the way to install what need into my trinity to ADD it the Blackberry performance , transferring in only 1 device all my needs?
Thanks for your help , comment , info

I'm in the same situation...I tryes BBConnect, but it makes the Trinity too slow...and furthermore I didn't get the appropriate account set up, in fact no way to sync with MS xchange...
It would be great having a fast way to "replicate" the account from my BB...and dismiss it 4ever!
Anyone else?
I tried BBConnect 4.0 without success, i missed to activate the option on sim card.

Have you confirmed with your internal technology straff that they will allow you to use a non-Blackberry device with the Blackberry service? I know there are now ways to use non-Blackberry devices with the Blackberry service (even if they don't work well), but your internal IT people will have to configure your account to do so.
I asked my IT people to do that for me and they completely refused. The reason they use Blackberry (instead of Microsoft exchange, etc.) is because with Blackberry, they have total control over how I use my Blackberry, so they can close any security holes and otherwise restrict my use of the device. For example, we can't use the SD card on our phones, can't use Messaging, and can only use the Blackberry browser for the Internet. While this sucks as a user, it lowers their cost to support since there is much less chance that I will install a rogue application or otherwise screw up my Blackberry and then expect them to help.
If they're willing to let you use it, I'd definitely say go for it, but be aware that at some point you're probably going to have tot tell them that they need to update their server information to start sending the mail to a new device ID. When you do this, they're probably going to ask why, which could open a whole can of worms...
Good luck!
Mike
I would like to use my P3600 i.o. the BB. In this case I could avoid having 2 devices...I asked my IT dept and, as you stated, they did not support it. Now, is there a way to use BB on my P3600 with no help rom the IT dept?
I have the P3600, the BB, and 2 TIM wih the same number (1 normal +1 twincard). Obviuously, I do not want to dismiss my P3600 and use only the BB!!! PLEASE HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!
any other help ?
please....!!!
As far as I know, you can have BB connect working, by using the DOPOD WM5 ROM and BB Connect version 2.1.2.52
You should try, it will work.
BBConnect will work with WM6 on Trinity.
Search this forum for bbconnect_wm6_professional_bb_4_1_.0.0.90.exe this is the BBConnect install for Trinity WM6
Ensure that your SIM has been enabled for Blackberry before you install. The rest is easy.
Good Luck!

My UK t-mobile one does not have arabic under locales (but it only has 6 choices)
I've bought mine 2 days ago. Looking at the locale i only have Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania. So bear in mind that the phone may have different language and locations depending on where you bought it from. Clearly mine is an Eastern European version.
P.S: Amazing phone. I'm in love!

Got it from your local dealer? Does it have Baltic languages aswell? Not that i care, my phones are always on english.
I see they have added us(Baltics) in locale. On Hero sold here there were only the first five. I was hoping we get the Nordic one, but yeh... Eastern europe makes sense. But why not other countries then?
I really dislike the segmented markets and versions in technological devices...

yeah. im just messing cause he ask if i needed anything. cheers anyways
desire test
i would like to test on Desire this:
Outlook contacts + calendar
-sync with Desire over the microUSB cable. does the Outlook Calendar + Condatcs sync without data being transferred to Google Gmail/Google Calendar and so on ?
- does the Sync happen automatically (like ActiveSync with Windows Mobile devices) on background in Windows XP/7 ... or do you have to start anything manually after you plug in the device ?
Browser with integrated flash video player:
- could you open www.youtube.com on the integrated google web browser and try to play videos in 360, 480, 720p ?
SD card:
- is the Desire shipped with SD card, or without ?
LCD Screen:
- does it glare a lot on sunlight ?
- is there any screen protector shipped with Desire ?
------
sorry it's not ROM cooking related, but i would be interested anyway, if you find the time to test and answer

Outlook contacts + calendar
-I know that the syncing is possible and you can set it to automatic, but not if its pushed through to G-Apps, i think not though
Browser with integrated flash video player:
- When you go to the regular youtube website, and the flashplayer is loaded, you see a big play button (no bar on the bottom). When you hit it, the youtube app pops up and plays your video. Good news though: theres an option for high quality video in there, which imo gives perfect quality (and i have high standards)
SD card:
- Mine came with a class 2 4GB microsd, already in the phone (so htc put it there, all desire's should have one)
LCD Screen:
- I did notice in the bus today that its very reflective, but if you up the brightness to 100%, theres no problem at all.
- No, but you can buy them off ebay, theres a supplier in the UK that has an unending supply of 6packs for about 2 euro
* Note: it's not an LCD screen, but an amoled one
Also for anybody who's interested:
Due to the nature of the screen and the fact htc & google ignore websafe colors, some shades of grey look a little pinkish. Its not at all anoying or ugly, and its barely noticable. Still, its there.
Hope this helped you,
Nick
thanks for the answers.

I went from the Diamond to the Magic (second android phone) and never looked back. Seriously, once you've tried android, you will wonder how you could ever live with WM.
Try borrowing a device from a friend or ask for a demo in a store?
Desire owns
Clovek1 I had a diamond too and yesterday I got the Desire...Man let me tell you, it's a huge step forward.
The only thing bellow "great" is the camera but I don't really care. The interface is fantastic and the speed of the thing is really amazing.
I have the same problem with the locales, as it displays only 6(the greek language isn't there), but I got MoreLocale 2.
Also I can't see the paid apps as they're not supported in Greece atm.
i am using Outlook Calendar synchronization in my office quite often (daily). The Google Calendar is blocked in my company, for security reasons.
Therefore i would like to be sure, that the synchronization really works.
btw. how do you transfer your contacts from Windows Mobile to Android ? Through Outlook ?

I tried HTC Hero recently (borrowed for a short time). It was quite fast compared with Diamond.

It depends on the version of Exchange being used by your company.
Exchange 2007 is syncing calendar just fine but Exchange 2010 has a problem in that it initially syncs but then generates an error that causes all mail/contact sync to fail (stop syncing calendar and mail/contacts sync fine again). I can't vouch for Exchange 2003 as I don't know anybody using it with Android.
Having just moved from WinMo to Android the contacts migration is seamless - you're talking to an Exchange Server, give it the right credentials and all your contacts and mail will flow sweetly. My old Kaiser hasn't been plugged in to a PC to Sync ever - and neither will the Desire. Why, when it can all be done over the air via Exchange.
Now if only Tasks would be supported as standard without having to buy something extra.

Yes there appears to be a problem with Exchange 2010. When the Desire arrived here, I was still connecting successfully to Exchange 2003. Since then we have upgraded to Exchange 2010, and Calendar sync now fails. As you say, it fails badly enough to stall mail and contacts sync too.
By disabling Calendar sync on the phone, mail and contacts then sync nicely. Enable Calendar sync, and if your Exchange is 2010, it al goes wrong.
I note you are syncing fine to Exchange 2007, so this must be a weakness with Exchange 2010, but it is hard to blame the Exchange server, as my iPods/iPhones sync just fine with Exchange 2010.
So in summary, there appears to be a show-stopper sync error on HTC Sense Exchange 2010 support which thwarts Calendar sync. Here's hoping there is a fix for this shortly, as the Desire becomes a no-go for corporates until this is sorted.
