O2 XDAII ROM upgrade failed?

I have just downloaded the rom upgrade off the O2 website (ver 1.60.50) and installed. Initially it was trying to connect to the internet! Eventually I got it working, but after hard resetting the version still says 1.60.00wwe, Rom date 12/03/03, extRom ver 1.60.50 - all as before.
Does anyone know if the upgrade has actually worked but the info not been updated, or does this mean that the update hasn't worked and I must have had an error somewhere?
Any help, advise appreciated.

I thought these forums where to help each other out and provide information. It is disappointing that no one wants to help, or provide a little guidance.

Absolutely nothing changed?
I thought it's not possible? Did you see a progress bar on XDA's display during the upgrade? if so, the memory has been accessed, so your rom is the new one, there is just a mess in identification. As far as I know, extROM changes the identity (it is it's main purpose), did you use it?

Maybe I'm wrong - but it seems that you are upgrading from 1.60.50 to 1.60.50. Right? As such, everything WOULD be the same!

I did see the progress bar, and the documentation before the upgrade on the O2 website sugests the Rom to be 1.60.00wwe and the extRom to be 1.60.50
I would have expected the actual Rom to now be 1.60.50wwe.
Has anyone else managed to upgrade to the official O2 ROM that is on their site and can confirm the ROM info? Also what apps etc would confirm that it has been upgraded if the info hasn't been updated but upgrade has work?
Many thanks for help and advice.

I'm not sure, but doesn't higher number mean later+better ROM?
If yes, have a look at 1.72 by T-mobile - there should not be many differences! :lol:

Since I have only just bought it I don't want to upgrade to an unofficial ROM in case it invalidates the Warranty should anything go wrong with it. May look at using a ROM from another supplier in a few months though.
Can anyone confirm if the ROM ver should be changed?
Thanks

You need to give people time to reply mate - we don't LIVE on these forums you know.
Anyhow, to answer your posts, yes, you have worked it out, the O2 ROM update, which is described as 1.60.50, is actually just the extended ROM element.
The system ROM is still 1.60.00
This confused me, and no doubt, lots more people too, and it's a bit STUPID of O2 to describe it this way.
Thus, you have in effect flashed your XDA2 to the exact same ROM it had before hand.
Curses to O2 for the confusion. Not good of them!

Thanks, and sorry for being impatient
O2 need to sort this out as I have done a ROM upgrade that could have fried my machine if I did it wrong that was unneccessary.
Thanks again.

Well, O2 is not alone in this - the current i-mate ROM is listed as 172126. The ROM version is 1.72.00, but the Extended ROM is 1.72.126.
I think they do this for internal tracking purposes. They get the ROM from MS, but they tweak the ExtROM themselves. It is possible for them to release multiple ExtROM versions in the same ROM version, so THAT is what they specify.
Make sense? Just a stab in the dark as to the logic of the release numbers.

Im halfway to universal heaven - but help needed :-)

I have a new T-Mobile Universal (MDA Pro) which I think I have unlocked (courtesy, donation and kind thanks going to Buzz and the gang in appreciation).
My device information now reads as follows:
ROM version: 1.20.32 WWE
ROM date: 11/16/05
Radio version: 0.00.00
Protocol version: 42.37.P8
ExtROM version: 1.20.120.WWE
I had the lastest T-mobile ROM prior to unlocking but now I appear to have 0.00.00 radio.
Question is this: what now?
1. What ROM would you recommend? I have poor reception so am biased towards a quality signal grabber (if that makes sense lol)
2. Where do I get the recommended ROM (from the FTP here? I tried to register on i-mates download site but it rejected by IMIE)
3. Last but not least (and probably most importantly)how do I update the ROM? Do I need to update my bootloader before flashing the ROM?
Please help because I do not want to push my luck and bork my wee pride and joy :shock:
Big thanks in advance
(this board and the wealth of info it provided influence my purchase decision so big thanks to all in advance)

Tmobile NL ROM is good IMO. It's on FTP and has the 1.01 bootloader upgrade.

M8!.... and if you read the forum a bit more you will find what you need.....
If you unlocked your pda then you should be able to fully upgrade your rom since its the same way you done the first half of the unlocking ... use the no_id file instead of the original one and its always best to put the pda into bootloader mode first.
You can also only upgrade the radio to 109 withouth messing around with reinstalling stuff that you had (if any)...
I could keep on in regards to this m8 but i would only be telling you what i read during my searches on this forum... if you get my drift :wink:
Good luck.
WBR

Problem is I have confused myself by reading too much
Can I use the Tmobile NL ROM even though I use ENGLISH?
Do i need to do any preparatory work to use the 1.01 bootloader?
How do I upgrade?
* unpack new ROM to folder on desktop computer
* copy MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe to same folder
* remove SD czrd
* open activesync on desktop and uncheck "Allow USB connections"
* enter bootloader mode by simultaneously pressing backlight key/power key/and soft reset
* plug USB cable into universal/dwsktop
* run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe on desktop
* wait 5 seconds following a prompt showing olf/new ROM bfore pushing upgrade button.
* donot disturb anything whilst updating.
* click Ok button when 100% complete shows.
* do hard reboot (by pressing the two -- buttons/reset key)
* press button 0 when prompted and follow normal instructions
Is this correct? if so .. any other ROMS recommended ?
THANKS
Bob

Bob,
The instructions are correct. The latest Qtek ROM (WWE version) is quite good - supporting AUK2 and A2DP Bluetooth profile.

Thanks Richard - it is very reassuring to have someome look at what your going to do to make sure you got it right.
Out of interest, since unlocking my universal and thereby acquiring radio 0.00.00, does my phone stay unlocked even though I will be upgrading radio as part of my general ROM upgrade? My phone still works under radio 0.00.00 so i assume that although it is 0.00.00 it still retains all phone functionality?
Thanks for all your help
Bob

BOB..... just apgrade the rom and plz stop backtracking the thread!
As already posted here and also tested myselfe.... the phone will stay unlocked forever even after rom upgrades!
Also as posted by others..... if you keep radio on 0.00.00 it will give poor eficiency.
So.... just go ahead and upgrade the rom..... my personal advice would be as Rich said... use the latest qtek rom (not the one with wwe twice on the filename).
BR

I apologise for any repitition but as I said earlier, I have been (like numerous others who read the board) very confused by the technical aspect of this. Im sorry if my post has offended your greatness and thereby warranted your abrasive post. I was under the misapprehension that I could feel free to express my technical problem in the best manner I could. Obviously you feel otherwise. My advice to you would be to wind your neck in and let others who arn't as technically gifted as your greatness to get on with resolving their issues. No one asked you to read this thread let alone post two replies!!
To all others who helped me, many thanks and genuine appreciation. To agent003, I hope your 'little man' syndrome gets better real soon pal!!!
Bob

Bob,
After the upgrade, it is recommended that you flash the original radio stack back on - I personally recommend the radio 1.09 as it seems to work best in the UK; later versions such as ver. 1.11 have been reported as unstable in the UK.
The instructions are on wiki.xda-developers.com

BOB,
Nothing personal m8.... but.. every day i have to repeat myselfe in order to verbally explain stuff to people and that i can understand, but when me and others bother to write something down and still have to re-write it all over again in order to explain I just have to assume some people are just thick!
Every forum has what is called a database and next time instad of posting sarcasm i sugest make better use of yours and my time and USE IT!
WBR

Bob and agent003,
Now, now... You've both got a point, but you shouldn't be killing each other, especially when you're both from the same country, and ESPECIALLY when Beckham and his team are playing hard in the World Cup at the mo. You guys gotta unite!
So, Bob: do spend a bit more time on reading the threads, as there are LOADS of information on your question.
Agent003: you gotta go easy on someone who has only made 5 posts, but point well-made anyway.
Oh, and England's now in the last 16 of the World Cup!

Universal now successfully flashed with latest Qtek ROM (which was a self executing file). Thanks for all the help
Agent003 - if you don't like what I post due to my (and others) "thickness" then stop reading and don't reply! Having said that I did appreciate the information you posted if not the childish remarks.

red button as well as "end" do not work after ROM update

Hi community - I updated to VP3G and now either the red button nor the end button finishes the call - this is bad - any idea what I can do ?

Tough to answer with any certainty without knowing more details. Could be your radio - I had that same problem with some radios. Since going with this ROM I have not had the problem. Also what apps do you have loaded?
Mark.

peter, it is something you have done as no one else has had this issue.
What radio? What software have you installed? Using a different Dialer? Hard reset?
We need more information besides "it doesn't work".

And as long as we're giving advice, this forum prefers possible concerns or issues be posted in the already available thread.
For example; if you're having problems with Black Majik, no need to start another thread, just post in the already available thread.
Thanks
Berd

Yes first I thought it is the radio so I switched to Radio 1.43 but the problem is still there. Now I found out it is more the case when I`m connected via GPRS that the button as well as the "end" software button dòn`t work ...
Applications which I use - no extra phon software, but magic button or the as follows: sk software, skype, sprite backup, webis etc.

It's your hardware controller card, gone bad. After some time all of your front button will stop responding. I had the same problem, sent to Dopod service center and got it fixed.
Its not any of ROM issues what so ever. Its a common defect of some earlier batch, as told by the techies at the Service Center.

Heh, I made the same assertion once and was told on no uncertain terms that I was wrong.

It seems that it is not the hardware because it is wonderful working when I`m not online with GPRS or 3G !
So what elese can I do ? Should I try another ROM or can I just install an updated file for the GPRS issue ?
PLs help

please remember this is a Dev forum and I believe you answered your own question try flashing another ROM and see if that fixes it. I have no idea about updated GPRS software - you mean a radio ROM? just flash another OS and see if that works its not a problem with 3Gvp's rom but maybe you had a bad flash

Hmmm... that's an interesting twist on the problem I've never heard before. I would suggest a) hard reset b) reflash my ROM c) flash another ROM. I'd probably also go with a Cingular version of the radio for now ... 1.40 or 1.48.

VP - shouldn`t I start with a new radio rom version before I reinstall your ROM ??? At the moment I`m using the 1.43 version

Up to you, but I thought you said you'd already changed radios. I'd probably go for the hard reset and see if it works before installing anything else.

Hi VP, your advice worked - I changed to ROM 1.48 and now when I dial the online connection is stopped and reactivated after the phon call.
THANK you so much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best regards
from Germany

VP - it´s again me - pls can you look at my problem: My Tytn is telling me -in the meantime several times a day -that I have to resynchronize and after I got the warning to resynchronize there comes the next warning that there is no IP number !

[Ask Your Questions Here] Questions And Answers for Vogue Users

All,
Due to good success in the Blue Angel section, I have decided to open a Questions and Answers thread on this section of the forum as well. This will be good to keep the number of new threads with questions down to a minimum, which will make new threads essentially for people that are contributing to the Vogue in any way. This includes but is not limited to people that are providing
*New Roms and Kitchens
*Programs and Apps
*Fixes
*Skins
*Tips and Tricks
However, I have a life (and so do most of you), which is why I would like to request the help from other Seniors (or anyone who knows the answer really ) to monitor the thread as well. This will have the added side effect of creating an ever self updating knowledge base that will far extend the content of the Wiki.

Hi there Gents any input
Barogi awesome so far for v2; media player not staying in full screen mode though, and manila home weather under clock wont update when you push update now also getting error message for manila home on reboot

Great idea for a faq page!
I have been using a NFSfan rom on my bell vogue for a while, and it crapped out today for some reason. Rather than put another WM build on it, I wanted to change to Android.
I have looked through many pages in here, but I can't find a simple tutorial on switch from a custom WM build to a Android build. I prefer to use the NAND method so that I don't ever have to see WM again...
Can someone create or point me towards a step-by-step guide for installing Android? Keep in mind that I have absolutely no Android experience, and that my custom ROM is completely messed up, so would it make for sense to flash the a manf build and upgrade from there?
Thanks

As far as WMP, Barogi will have to look into it since it is his rom.
One last thing, please do not double post. Thanks for understanding...

I have a question:
I recently flashed the Bell rom with the latest radio (I couldn't get the radio only nbh to apply properly), and then subsequently flashed with the latest NagROM rom (which is awesome btw).
Now of course, at startup i have the nice HTC screen with the rom version etc, followed by an AWFUL blue BELL screen (and then the nice orange wm6.5 screen).
Is it possible to change the blue BELL screen? And if so how?

There was a cab to change that somewhere around here in this section of the forum. Alternatively, you can flash NFSFan's rom (which will get rid of it), or you can try mine as well and then reflash Nag's rom.

Question from mac+htc
mac+htc said:
Hey everyone,
So I was running NSFANS 6.5 ROM on my device (Amazing ROM btw) But I needed to revert back to the stock rom. I used the VZW updater to go back to the stock rom and I changed the esn on line. When I dialed the *228 and choose option 1 I got a failed message. So I called customer support and he walked me through a manual programing. Well that got voice working but when I went to use the data it wouldn't work. I made sure all the network settings were right, and I still couldn't connect. Well then I hard reset the device and now I am back to square 1. No voice no data. Is this something from NSFANS rom that is messing the phone up? I don't want to call again because their tech support takes forever and I am afraid they are just going to tell me to take the phone into the store. Thanks in advance!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Why did you change the E$N? Where you using the device in a different carrier?
Back to your problem. Your EPST settings should survive a hard reset as those are parameters that are not stored in Windows (afaik). It really makes not difference which rom you are using (at least for Voice and SMS).
Lets focus on your main phone's capabilities first. If your EPST settings truly got lost, you will need to get them from Verizon again. The main ones are the MSD and MIN. Make sure that you write them down this time as you will need them again if they go bye bye.
As for your internet, you will probably need to set the correct username in the phone's programming as well (also info that you will need from Verizon, but it should be something like [email protected] or something like that)
Do that and let me know if this works. They will have to program this for you this time, but once you have the values that I mentioned before, you will be able to do it yourself.

Try to get Barogi's latest "lite" rom. Also, you can't go wrong with vin's 28014 or NFSFan's rom. I would recommend mine, but I think they might be a little heavy for what you want. Good luck.

i checked out NSFSfan. It was nice, but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much for what I want. Ill check out the other you suggested before i just flash back to stock rom

Try to avoid stock if you can... it has a bad tendency of being too heavy on the extra apps.

I checked out just SS's of both. Both look awesome, but theres something about the simple look ( or im just used to it since my 8125 ) of the stock look. I would like to have the look but the added memory of a cooked rom.
With NSFSfans, could you remove the today screen plug ins to get back to a more stock look?
Im runnin 2.1 android eclair at the moment, and im barley pulling a full day battery with no data/bluetooth. With the old winmo, I was getting 2.5 days-3days. Thats another main concern for me.

It runs 2.2 (as mentioned on the web), I don't have any idea if it can be upgraded, as you may know 2.2 isn't the latest version.
For GPS, you can check its specs if it has GPS or not, if yes then you can install the apps from the market otherwise perhaps connect an external GPS, although I am not sure weather an external will work or not.
