O2 has stopped selling the XDAiis

I have been looking at PDA/Phones and decided on the XDAIIs. I had previously seen it on the O2 web site but when I checked yesterday it has all the adds and specs but when you go to buy online it says" Sorry, this handset is no longer available; You may wish to make a selection from our current range, displayed below" Does anyone know if it has been discontied or if there is a new model in the pipline.

Well, you can still get it from other people! iMate, (expansys.com), etc.

dont know bout being discontinued, but they are making a big deal over the xda exec... nicefone.

It's available from the Orange web site as Orange SPV M2000

yep i got mine form orange

Hi,
I work for a communications company and we've just sold 10 of these to a company, all on O2.
Any probs, let me know.
CHeers,
Bret

i work for o2 and they had to discon it due to system problems
if you want anything get the i or the exec both well better than the s

Thats interesting to know. We are an O2 dealer so shouldn't someone have told us before we bought 12 of them?
How long ago was it discontinued???
Not amused about that at all.

Can you name the exact problems?

Can you name the exact problems?[/quote]
Bluetooth is one! Terrible BT hardware. Half a meter away and the cracks make the headset unusable. 22003SE and BT patches / WM5 just equally crappy :evil:
Just waiting for the Atom/Athena :roll:
In the meantime, my 2020 with 2003SE / automated Sin Merge is the best combo I tried. Thinking about moving to WM5 but the issues I had on my BA with ActiveSync/Outlook/Exchange server are making me think twice...
BTW, any news on FCS for Athena?

It's about effing time!! The Blueangel was not ready for sale. Not everyone knows how to hack a ROM and most business users need it to work out of the box which it defo didn't.
I know the problem: 02 didn't release the 1.40 ROM.
AND as I mentioned in another thread I have just broken my handsfree socket by mistake. I could fix it but I don't wanna take it apart and ruin the warranty.
I also don't wanna pay to have it fixed as I don't have ANY money. The down key is getting dodgy as well. I think I will go for a new one on insurance. Do you think they will gimme an Exec no that the 2s has been discontinued?
I only got the 2s as an insurance job for the XDA2 about 5 months ago. Do you think that they will be funny about it in the shop or will they not bother?

the s.... is crap

Unhide/Unlocking Universal Ext Rom ??

Hi
On my BA there were some tools to do this. I am assuming that they have not yet been created for the universal yet (unless I am missing something?)
I tried the BA ones (nothing to loose), to no avail.
On my BA, I always used to cherry pick what I wanted from the extended rom post install.
Nigel

currently you can't unlock the extended rom, but with totakcommander you can type /Extended_Rom on the commandline and you'll see the content of the folder. You can start the .cab files from there or copy them to the SD card.
You can't copy anything back to the extended rom.

Cheers Wolfgang!

Yeah... Dopod from Michael (mwang) arrived today as well, but they want me to pay the custom fee... oh well...
So it is now blocked at the post office and i have to give them proof of it's price.. hmm.... or something like that...
buzz

Yaeh, i know the feeling about customs charges, i bought a Top-Gun style leather jacket from the US and it cost me an extra 54 quid on import tax and VAT
Anyway, you'll love the universal, it is so much better than the old xda ii, even Mel (the missus) likes it.....
Speak to ya soon. if you want me to test anything for ya, as always, no problems....

I've had that before, and not far from you either
I buy a lot of stuff from eBay, but all the customs crap (not just the fees, but all the paperwork and delays) made me limit most of my purchases to the EU. I still get stuff from the US, and the far east sometimes, but mostly just items with small (declared) value, that can slip through.
There I come to my point: I see that you have to provide a proof of the price like I had to. Since I had a private ebay purchase, I could only print the receipt from the website. As most of the gadgets I got were very uncommon, a few times I took the liberty and changed some numbers on the receipt. Nothing outrageous, of course, but still. The cumulative 8% import duty +25% VAT pissed me off a lot...
You might want to consider this if they ask for half your kingdom...

WM6 cooked Jasjamming&Sleuth Camera

Hi guys,
I really enjoy above mentions WM6 ROMs, but both produce nothing else as green noise in the cameras for Hermes 100.
Is this known?
Any solutions?

Dear All,
No answer, the problem is fairly obvious.
Am I the only 1 with No Camera working??
Couls somebody using Sleuth's or Jasjammings ROMS reply, if his Camera is working on Hermes 100 (O2 XDA Trion)
Thank you

I have used 3 sleuth ROMs and i have used the all of the black ROMS (2.5->Satin), i can verify that i have had a camera in all of the ROMs used and nothing funny going on.
I have O2 XDA Trion
does that answer your question? (remember its sunday and you prob wont get fast answers today, just before you start getting pissed no-one is answering you straight away!!!)

i've got both an xda trion and spv m3100 (both HTC hermes)
and have never had this problem on any ROM
sorry

Thanks

I have no issue with either Black MAJIK or SATIN but I have a Hermes 300. Are you implying that the camera issues might be the fault uniquely of the Hermes 100? There are people that have issues with their camera sand I have seen a post implying that they are potentially hardware (loose connector) issues.
Sorry I cannoy help more - I notice that none of the other people responding to your post say what Hermes version they have.
BTW - for anyone that wants to know look in settings-Device information-Identity (top entry = Model No).
Regards

i have a cingular Herm 100 and have no issues with my camera its better with the newer build than ever before. still sucks in low light but outside on a sunny day its amazing how good it is.

I've never had a issue with my camera in any build, which I've used all of the Black variants....

Why are we still waiting? how reliable is your source?

Turbosim uses the same old boring flaw. It's phsyically unreliable (brittle, contact problems). Also most of these 'turbosim's are not turbosim's but cheap clones. All 'turbosims' have incompatability issues with sims.
Save your money and don't bother using it to unlock. Someone well known was offering an unlock solution on here (search in this section). It'll probably cost you the same, or even less and no faffing around when your turbosim breaks.
PS. plus a rom update could close the turbosim flaw indefinatly.

Please dont open threads like this! what a waste of space....

wm6 software

Sorry if this question has been answered but I'm new to the blue angel. I currently have a tilt upgraded to wm6.1. I really love my phone but I'm going to sell it because I need some cash for fixing my car. I just bought a sx66 from ebay and am planning on using it instead and upgrading it to wm6, prob xplodes roms because he seems to know his junk.
The question I have is when the blue angel is upgraded to wm6 is most wm6 software compatible with it? Am I going to be limited with the programs I can run?
Any help is appreciated thanks

also I've done some reading on "stk" and I'm just curious as to how it interferes with phone service if it is not working properly in one of the 6.1 roms. Is it going to interfere with phone quality and internet use if it doesn't work? Thanks very much for the response. I am waiting to flash until I find out the answer to this question
