I have been sent a link from O2 Data Support for downloading the new XDA2s ROM upgrade, which apparently will fix the Bluetooth problems.
The link is...
http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/XdaIIs_launchROM.htm
Haven't done anything with it yet, but thought you guys might like to know...
regards,
Guy
Hmm I wonder if I can use this update on my O2 Xda2s.
I got it in Malasyia.
Noel
I installed it on my UK XDA 2s, I will report back later.
In the PDF it's saying that this version is only for devices sold by O² UK or O² Ireland... Not sure if I should give it a go on my version..
Noel
I think I might wait and see what others say about this before I install it myself. So many that have it already say it is great but then you hear others say it has caused problems.
That post is the launch rom, not an upgrade. LMAO It is intended for people who attempt to flash the XDA IIs with a different vendors rom and screw it up.
Mike
Nope, its not, click the link. O2 are obviously just too lazy to create a new page for a new rom!
Nigel
HAHA you are correct!!! LMAO oh well. :shock: :lol:
Hi..have installed the update..and have encountered several problems...was wondering if anyone could help me.
I hate the fact that the clock has disappeared from the top right so whe u are using applications its no longer visible. Is there any way of bring it back?
Also now when you click the o2 at the top it dosn't give the active connections anymore. Therefore whats the quickest way to disconnect the gprs? and is there any way of bringing that back to how it used to be?
I have also had to reset my phone more often that I had to before.
Was wondering if anyone had encountered the same problems and how to resolve them.
Thanks so much...
Bit the bullet and upgraded last night, wifi still works and as I use Corporate mode I don't get any issues with 02 active, icons or clocks. All seems normal, so far!
Have to agree with Dave. I finally bit the bullet and installed the update last night. Don't like the new O2 active and put the clock straight back with the registry key.
Other than the missing clock and poor O2 Active software which I never use anyway no real problems. Tom Tom still works fine with my Bluetooth GPS receiver. WIFI still works fine with WPA security and everything locked down on the access point.
Still receive SMS notification and its nice that you're not limited to 70 char when using ' in sms text messages now!
All ok.
har5ha:
Just get the old O2 active back. To to this, head to the xda-dev FTP site, find the old O2 XDA IIs extended rom, pull it, find the file install.ARM.CAB (O2 active)
Sync/backup yr stuff then hard reset the XDA IIs, and let it do its stuff. When leave it to install the extended rom, but be ready to soft reset it when you get asked the 'corporate/personal' question (you'll have to watch the screen since there is a timeout). Once it reboots, copy install.ARM.CAB to the machine, and execute it. It will soft reset yr device at the end.
I use 2 things from O2 active, the battery plugin and the O2 icon to kill connections. Shame billy did not think to include a disconnect dialogue as well really (he put on in for vpn).
There might be a way to install old over new, dunno. I tried and it locks loads of files (even if you prevent it from loading).
Nigel
thanks Nigel...I ended up installing gb soft for the disconnect button.
So its ok...still getting loads of crashing. I think am going to reinstall it and then use corporate mode..hopefully it will crash less!
can I get an update on xda iis rom update
Hi all, I'm still new to this whole thing but reading and researching all I can. Don't have an xda iis as of yet, but on the high streets waiting list. I like the phone and in one way, can't wait, but don't want problems when I get it, especially at the price. Can anyone on o2 that has purchased their phone from o2 let me know how you are getting on...problems...ect, before and after the update.? To be honest, I'm a bit afraid to bite the bullet and get one right now due to what I'm hearing...especially since I'm not very computer smart. I do understand that it depends a lot on the manufacturer of the phone but if I had problems like I'm hearing about it would really do my head in...(no patience). Thanks
Well I love my phone to bits...had issues with the update but now that I have hard reset it and put it corporate mode its not freezing anymore.
But you have to remember its a pocket pc...like a pc..will need to be reset every so often...I was resetting mine of average once a day. It just takes a minute.
There are some negative points..but the positive outweighs the negative I think. My old pda was palm os (clie) and this is windows which is really good! As well as the fact that it has a phone built in too!
Hi all.
Can you please post some more feedback on this rom.
How is the BT stability?
Range?
Crackling noise?
License Expired troubbles?
I know its Build 3500, but maybe something else in this rom makes a difference.
How about the problem with sound dissapering when you answer a call.
Any troubbles here? This is really a pain in the (_!_)
Running the New Rom for a couple of days now and it seems much better than the launch Rom, The O2 active stuff is just as pants as usual so remove that and the "Connections" exe from Windows\startup.
Best thing is that it's stopped the annoying bug of the GPRS settings being screwed up when you enable/disable Wi-Fi.
Recommend it myself
Password
Anybody knows the password for this rom
PDA2K Upgrade
Hi, Can this rom replace the i mate rom on the 2K.& If so will it then be sim locked to O2? as I want to use an O2 pay as you go, & T-mobile sim
many thanks in advance............
Sorry to annoy everybody, I have had my M2000 a while now and there are a few things I would like a hand with.
1) I unlocked the M2000 and am currently using it on O2 pay and go. However I cannot use GPRS, if anybody could help me out by telling me settings and/or how to connect properly I would be very grateful!
2) I am running Windows Mobile SE Version 4.21.1088 (build 14132) are there any upgrades possible at all to be able to use Windows Media Player 10? I don’t mind upgrading operating system as long as it doesn’t cost too much.
3) Is there a way to back up just my text messages from the M2000 so I can have them saved on my computer and/or my 1 GB SD card?
4) Finally (sorry about this) does anybody know why sometimes when I make calls I can’t hear the dial or the person talking but they can hear me? I have checked the volume (I'm not that dumb) but resetting it is the only thing that works, which is pretty annoying.
Thank you very much for your help. I know there are probably a million listings with these answers but if you could direct me to them or give me your own verdict I would very much appreciate it.
Thanks again.
1. do a search in the forum maybe excluded to the networking it forum
search string should be something along these lines "gprs AND payandgo"
or something like that
2
read this
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM5_Home
3. again search for something like "SMS AND backup"
Thanks for that Rudegar, if anybody else can help me out on this one too, I would really appreciate it. You gave me a link to download WM5, are you currently using WM5, and would you recommend it? I have no programming experience really and it looks quite complicated to install so much so I don’t know what some of the files are etc. will there be an easier version where all you have to do is click a button and it will auto install? You’re the clever one here so ill do whatever you recommend, ill take your word for it. Thanks again Rudegar, if anybody else can help please do.
Thank you.
I have had my M2000 for about 2 months and for about the last month i have also been have the same problem as number 4, where people i call can hear me but i cant hear them, when i fiddle with the volume slider on the side i can sometimes (only sometimes) hear a split second of sound from the other person, its SO annoying having to reset
could be a radiostack issue
maybe an upgrade of it will fix it
also had some issues with my xda2 when people call it sometimes take awhile before they can hear me
the cause of that is bluetooth tools which seem to be trying to direct my call to my bluetooth headset
dont matter if i have a bluetooth headset though it still try take about 10sec before they hear me then
Hmmm, glad to hear I'm not the only one with that problem. It is really annoying though having to reset it when i need to make a call. I'm worried about using a radio update as I don't have a clue about who has made it and what it will do especially if its a con. Where can i go about getting a trusted Radio update? Talking about updates, is there a ROM update available?
Guys install this cab file it will fix your problem..
Or while you don't hear the other party just turn on the BT then turn it back OFF this will solve..

I have taken a huge risk in installing WM5... Well I'm doing my best anyway. I need some help though.
I have so far got to re-partitioning and formatting my device but whenever I press format an error message comes up saying "Error FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL_DRIVE failed" what the heck does that mean? can anybody help me out?
Big thanks to everybody who has helped me out so far with this and for anybody elce if you can help me, please do.
Thanks.
Anyone know if it is possible to remove a cab file like this after I have installed it? I've loaded it and it seems to have screwed up my pocket pc.
Thanks,
Cian
PHEW!!
I'm so glad i didn't install that cab. I was weary to start with and I'm glad i didn't it appears to be some sort of intruder on a pocket PC which jumbles up the settings. Just for anybody elce who is about to download it, take some advice, DONT PLEASE!!! I'm trying to upgrade my ROM but orange are crappy and dont supply ROM updates yet. Ill try the I-Mate Update. Fingers crossed. Thanks again to everybody who's helped me out!
hello everyone!
i am totally new to all this, just got my first smartphone (an "old" tmobile mdaIII). i palyed around with it a bit now, its really great! unfortuneatly i am running into several problems, eg. cannot connect to my wlan.
the thing is, i am a total noob with all this smartphones/handheld/pocketpc technics... so i figure, i will have to work my way thru. if you could help me a little, i would really be glad!
first of all, i would like to know if that phone could still have stored some kind of data on it? the battery was out for almost a year now, but maybe there are some files somewhere? how can i restore my phone to a totaly fresh status? is the hardwarereset the way to go?
of course i would like to update the software and stuff, i think the mda is still running windows 2003 and its rom is version GER 1.06 or something... (??)
do i have to get an USB2MDA cable for flashing roms and updating?
or can i do this via bluetooth or wifi?
if you have any other advice for a noob like me, i will gladly take it!
please dont be mad, if i have missed info on all this in the forums... i raed thru a lot now, but it is just getting darker and darker.....
any help is very much appriciated!
thx in advance!

HArd reset to restore your phone to fresh status.
Okay so i ordered and received a Daxian T32 phone. This phone is great in all, no problems except for the wifi not working. It has it built in phone it has been disabled and only a wifi firmware update will enable it and whenever that will be out and i dont want to wait. Is there anyway to enable it? Tronicvasion were i got it from said that there might be a hack for it i guess. I was wondering do anyone have any info on this. Thanks.

I have heard that there is a hack for it, but haven't been able to find it anywhere. It's probably all over the Chinese forums...in Chinese....
daxian
hi folks!
i got an daxian x999 (which is the same as your t32) and i´m desperatly trying to dump the rom, because i want to modify or even replace it!
if u got to know somethings about hacks or tweaks, please tell me about it!
if someone can tweak it, maybe he even can dump the rom
thanx in advance
chuckbert
p.s.
to have wifi in my phone would be quite cool, too
Hello,
i have the x999+ with working wifi.
If it would be possible to read out my rom. could this be helpfull for you?
michael
rom!
sure it would be helpful... if it would be possible!
i´m trying to do this for a couple of days and i desperately need help from some kind of "rom-god"
so all u "rom-gods" reading this: gimme a hand, please!!!
I do have the 8 Gig mini sd card update for it, but nothing for the wifi yet. I dont even know how to get into the rom to enable it. As for the GPS chip it is over in europe from what i heard.
update
@thepindoctor
what kind of update is it?
just a .cab or something to flash the device?
It is just a cab file for the 8 gig memory card to work and i sure the wifi update will be the same way. I am having so much trouble with this phone rebooting at times and even hard resetting at times, im so glad i kept my wing, gave that to my wife but now im taking it back.
wifi
where did you get the information about the possible wifi-upgrade from?
i´m still very interested in it...
p.s.
i never experienced these kind of problems, though i keep playing around with my daxian to get the bootloader out! kinda strange...

Hi,
Were I can find this 8 gig card cab? In my device with wifi has just up to 2 gig.
Thank you in advance!

SDHC update and WIFI
To enable SDHC, you can just look for it on the forum, it is on here several times...
Am not sure, but don't think that there will be an "update" for wifi...
The daxian x999/t32 doesn't have it, the daxian x999+/t32+ (which I have) does however...
So don't think you should get your hopes on for a "wifi update", if you would have a wifi antenna built-in, don't you think they would try to make it work from the beginning?
The + version has also been released a couple of months ago and if there would be such an update, I think they would've released it then.
is the sdhc hack a standard wm6 update for all phones? can't find a specific T32 one on here
I have the Wifi Hack App
Its a little dificult to do this:
1) get the pocket hack master (trial version)
http://store.handmark.com/p/910/Pocket_Hack_Master_for_Windows_Mobile_Pocket_PC
2) Shut off BLUETOOTH on 13%
3) Download http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/get-wmwifirouter-v0-89.html
WIFI router
4) on T32 (only T32) go to Settings - Connections - GPRS Stup, name it WIFI (on gprs internet)
5) save and restart t32. Run the wifi router and it will find your connection
And your using T32 wifi . thanks Rex909 the ghost hack master
i think i explained it right if i left something out let me know
That doesn't really make any sense. I've never been able to get Pocket Hackmaster to work with my T32. And how would one "shut off BLUETOOTH on 13%"??? And what would Hackmaster and the WiFi router have to do with each other?
any answer to the sdhc update whereabouts?

problem with my daxian x999
Hello my friends
I really need your help. My phone starts to fail during booting and also if boot has problem reading some applications.
I made a hard reset as were explained before, blue screen...
So far so good, but still the some problem, I looks like some files are missing, shortcut invalid and my documents some times stay some no.
I am newbie with this but I think there is a problem with the rom.
thanks.
Have you used WMStorage 1.8, SPB MobileShell2.x or the TomTom Navigator with the phone before?
Until now i have found 4 cases of that behavior with the T32+ (including mine and yours)
I want to know what caused the malfunction. My phone is on the way back to me from china where it was repaired and i dont want it to break down again - so if you have any suspision please share it with me.
Other Software i used:
S2U2, S2P, S2V, and many more...

****, YES !!! S2U2 and S2V,
Tomorrow, I'll send to china. Now the phone doesn't boot. Only shows windows mobile screen (blue). Nothing more
It's good to know which soft we have to avoid.
I didn't use WMStorage 1.8, SPB MobileShell2.x or the TomTom Navigator.
Only used S2UD and S2V.
Thanks for your info and share it!
personally i dont really think that s2u2 is responsible but maybe...
On the other Hand i had the following sw installed:
OmapClock - which failed at 204 MHZ
ActiveGCSync - a Google Calender Sync Application
GooSync - also a Google Calender Sync App
opera_wm5_ppc_865 - Browser
osmtracker
PCMKeyboard
Pointui 1.51a
SetVolume
SkypeForPocketPc
many GPS and Geocaching Apps
i also deleted the launcher startup link and the TouchFlo3D App.
btw: did s2u3 always behave right when you rotated the screen?
Good luck for your phone
I'm hoping somebody here can help, because I'd hate to have to get rid of a device that I really love...
Used Helmi's WM6 (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_Home) to upgrade from WM2003SE and everything was working beautifully!
I was absolutely LOVING the new software until my device just stopped accepting the passcode that I had been using for 2 years. What I don't understand is I had to use the passcode a few times after the upgrade and all was fine. What could have happened for it to suddenly change by itself (because I know it wasn't me)?
Someone at the PocketPCAddicts forum suggested that I locate an original factory ROM to wipe out everything on the device and try again from scratch. I've searched the web looking for such a beast and can't find one (since the manufacturer/carrier no longer support it).
Can someone here help?
Debbie
Wow, I'm on pg. 3 already... :-(
Someone have a solution, fix, suggestion for me on this? I can't possibly be the only one this happened to.... Or am I?
Thanks again!
Debbie
