I was able to upgrade my BA to windows 2005. However, when I reset it after the upgrading it says on the screen "NO GSM". Now I can't use the phone function of my XDA IIs. Anyone would like to help me. By the way, before I upgraded it successfully, I messed up by using the wrong model of upgrader. I used the one for dopod instead of for XDA IIs. I already went to greenhills they said its 1,500 or 2,000. But I am looking for some help from the people here if there is any other way cheaper.
I would appreciate any kind of reply.
Try to upgrade your radio to version 1.5 (see wiki for instructions)

Well I thought I would relay MY experience today.
I'm selling my XDA2 after upgrading to the 2i but as it was on WM2003SE I thought it best to downgrade it to 1.72 - afterall this CAN be done and would make sense to give it someone else with the latest o2 update rather than custom ones.
I put the XDA2 in its cradle, checked country id issues and then proceeded with the upgrade. BANG....USB v1.01 screen comes up and it didn't shift for 6 HOURS!!! Nothing I did made any difference, until I came across someone's comment (not on here) saying the only thing they tried once they'd rebooted into bootloader mode was to do it on another PC. I'd initially tried to put WM2003SE on my own PC and had a very similar issue to this one, but when I tried at work it upgraded immediately. Luckily I had a spare laptop hanging around and thought s*d it, it can't do any harm!
IT WORKS!!! I don't know why it's blocked on my PC, and what's caused it...but the laptop worked first time. I would ask anyone in the future having these kinds of problems with the bootloader screen and the PC not updating / downgrading to try it on ANOTHER PC!!! Obviously I can't say for sure, but for me it's 2 / 2!

Hello, I just received an O2 xda 2s and tried to upgrade it, the rom did not work and now I have nothing but a black screen with USB 2.06 writted on. I'm searching the web and have register on http://www.seeo2.com/ to get the rom but the transfer don't work. Could someone please tell me where I can download the good rom for hte xda 2s from asia? Thanks.

Thank you so much sir! I really appreciate your help. Thanks
hey all, my XDA II O2 is dead, i have a bit of a story to tell about it too. the poor thing won't boot up past the O2 spash screen.
i was initially selling my O2 around the traps as a working unit, then someone asked me to show them landscape view, and i didn't know how. i soon found out i needed to upgrade to 2003se or 2005. so on my homage to flashing my O2's ROM. i went and tried a 2005 and some random version radio stack hoping to upgrade two things at once, then, only one worked. my OS flash was fine, but my radio ROM didn't work at all. so basically i could get into WM2003, 2003SE, 2005 fine but couldnt use my simcard.
i've tried countless times to manually fix it aswell as using the official O2 ROM update off their site. then i went and sent it to O2 customer service or whatever it's called this year . they charged me $45AUD for general service fee which included flashing the radio and OS roms up to the latest. then they ring me up one morning saying my poor O2 needs a new motherboard (somewhere between $350 - 450 i think). i asked why, they said because it wouldn't power on at all. so i tried turning it on, it didnt work all of a sudden, so to speak.
i still had to pay the $45aud and ended up without a working O2, at all.
i felt furious but helpless and tried not to have to pay the fee, but had to.
long story short, heh, i need to do something with my shell of a XDA II, either sell, sell parts, fix, find a special ROM flash that might fix it. i don't know, i've tried so hard and have gotten nowhere. so, guys, any insight in what i could/should do?? any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks! :shock:
OH OH OH also, on that note, i can't go into bootloader mode or any other mode at all, so i cant re-flash
Threaten to sue. It worked partially when you sent it to them as it would power up - they've made it worse.

Bought an XDA IIs on Ebay with a broken screen with the intention of swapping my screen from my imate pda2k evdo to the xda iis. Unit arrives but is totally unserviceable stuffed case etc. Seller exchanged unit for a mint condition one with a good screen but showing all white when turned on. Tried exchanging screens but no improvement.
Unit will synch up to computer with activesynch.
I have tried all the hard/soft/bootloader resets with no change in operation.
I have tried mtty1.42 but cnnot get to the wceusbsh001 stage.
Any suggestions?
Try flashing it with a official rom. I had the same problem with my BA two days ago when I cooked a rom and forgot to check for free space, so the rom was too big and when I booted I got the white screen.
The solution was to cook another rom with basic nothing on it, flash and ta-da! Back to business
Tried to do a rom update from o2 Asia for Australia.
It would not give me a download for its imea number so I used the download for an older xda iis that I had.
Got the following error
error 100 model ID error 25 N 10 10 10
When it listed the version information my unit showed
1.40.00
1.12.00
with no extended image information in between.
Where to from here do you suggest?
I have replaced the BAupgradeut with the MAupgradeUT.
On the first try it came up with model error again.
I then started the process again It showed no device information at all for CE, Extended or Radio and it did a full three stage upgrade.
However the WSOD still continues. I can still explore the device through activesynch/explorer.
If I try to do another upgrade to check the device info it does not register an extended rom version on the device information screen as it was before the upgrade.
Any suggestions

Hi guys
I've had an o2 Ignito for the last year and its given me no trouble whatsoever.
I've tried various roms for it, all with no problems.
All of a sudden, I'm getting no signal at all. o2 confirm the phone has not been blacklisted or anything and my sim card works ok in other phones.
Any ideas?
o2 have said send it back and we'll repair it... I've got a cooked rom on there of course.
I've got a o2 stock rom called: Xda Ignit2_UK_2.10.206.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe Would that be enough to get past they're security checks? Do I need to remove HardSPL 1st? I've searched the site and I can't get my head round doing it.
Thanks in advance to anyone that could help

Reverting to stock SPL is always the last step.....be sure tot restore stock ROM and radio first.
good luck!
Great stuff mate, thanks for that link. Don't know how I missed that.
It may be, that sticking a new rom on there might fix it. I'll let you know
glad i could help out, this one is even more clear:

The stockROM you mention has a radio in it (it's the last part of the description) so when you put this on it you're good to go.
He..everybody in here is/was a noob at some point, so no worries
Worked a treat, o2 were arses getting the phone back to me, but they did
In the end it was the main board that went so that's been replaced. So new EMEI number :|
Is there an easy/cheap/FREE way of unlocking it? I'm thinking of selling it because I've lost the heart with it somewhat.
Thanks again for the invaluable help, gotta love these forums
your most welcome, but can't help you out with the unlock thingy....never had a locked phone
O2 uk dont lock their phones! i have an ignito! they are not sim locked

Sell it, or get an upgrade.. Or just unlock it again. All three are just about as easy as each other. I stumbled upon a complete noob guide to flashing the other day. I think once you have a custom SPL on there you're good to do pretty much anything.
