XDAII (O2) 1.66 ROM Please - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

I need this ROM as I upgraded to the 1.72. It cleared my radio stack (don't know how to find/install a new radio stack) and doesn't allow my previous installed information to be reinstalled (the xbackup is working but then the device just resets itself to the initial setup process without any of my previous information loaded in).
I went to the O2 site but they need the IMEI to get the 1.60. The IMEI was also cleared when I installed the 1.72. I couldn't find any downloads on this site or the wiki.
I just want my XDAII back to how it was before I foolishly made the mistake of thinking that it would work all fine instead of thinking with the proverb if it ain't broke don't fix it!
Thankyou

do you want rom 1.66 or rom 1.66 plus a radio stack in which case what version
or do you just want a radio stack
radio stacks are not included in the pure roms it's a seperate file called radio.nbf

Thankyou for your reply!
I would like the ROM 1.66 and the radio stack please (do I also need the extended ROM?) - as far as the RS goes, anything that would work for the US T-Mobile Prepaid network...
Thankyou

Found the IMEI under the battery
but the O2 site says I can't download as my device should already have the 1.60WWE rom version.

try going ti xda-wiki and taking a look at the ftp

nothing to help me

Rudegar told you to use WIKI. Find the ROM in here

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.

No camera software

I was having problems configuring a new T-mobile MDA III with blackberry. I contacted T-Mobile who directed me to install the latest rom image (MDA3_TMUK_v106160_SHIP0307.exe). After installing this, blackberry is working fine with our BES server, but I don't have any camera software on the device.
I do not know if the software was there before the rom flash, I did not look.
It does have a camera, but no way to use it. I have spoken to T-mobile again but I have not received a response, I thought I would try here to see if anyone here has any ideas. Is there a cab available that I could use to install the missing software? I have performed a hard reset but still no joy.
T.I.A
Wiggy
T-Moble (germany that is) at one time shipped two versions of the update software for there devices, one with camera one with out.
Back in the old days a xda patch came out to update a SX66 no camera rom 1.31 with a camera, You can find this on wiki, also you can try the cab for the WM5 rom (cameraFix) that might work. These you need to play with.
Best option is to get a rom from TMO that supports the camera
Cheers MDAIIIUser,
I downloaded Camera2K5_v1.rar from wiki, (ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/BA_WM5/Patches/Camera2K5_v1.rar) and this seems to work a treat.
T-mobile are still looking to the problem. They may yet send me a new Rom image with the software included.
Thanks again.
Wiggy
I've just posted about this problem :shock:
Good to know there are others out there with similar experiences!
I'm going to give that link a try and see where I get.

..I've downloaded this, but how do I install it on the MDAIII?
please forgive my ignorance!
If you extract the RAR file and you end up with a cab file then copy it to your device and tap on it in file manager.
I have know idea what is in the rar file.

Interest in HTC S620 Test ROM?

I just bought an HTC S620 off of eBay and noticed that when I boot up it say IU BUILD TEST....I also have noticed that the WLAN drivers are not installed for some reason. I posted on another forum about my issue and they pointed to your ROMs here.
I guess I can try and install one of the shipped ROMs to get the WLAN drivers installed, but it was also suggested that ya'll might be interested in the current set up and test radio ROM. If it is of interest, please let me know, and tell me how I can get it to you.
Also, anyone know if there is a way for me to just install the WLAN drivers rather than a whole new ROM?
yes please post the info or pm
and could you also tell us what applications you have !
Do you want what applications came installed when I got it?
In the about section of the settings, here is what it says:
Windows Mobile 5.0 with the Messaging and Security Feature Pack
OS 5.1.461 (Build 15671.3.3.0)
Radio Version 4.1.13.31_02.71.90
RIL Version 2.002
Let me know what I need to do to get it to you....
3.3 is new!!
Is that good?
Only problem is....there is no WiFi drivers on my device!!!!
Please post pics
of you screens ,in regards to the wifi drivers,did you try to google ?
Did I try to google and find the WiFi drivers? Yes. I found nothing. If anyone wants to point me in a direction where I might find them, please let me know
try to search in mobile sites like howard forums i think i had it once for my cingular 2125 i just do not remember where i download the driver from,anyways i am still curious if you have some additional applications on your htc s620 from what i have or homescreen ????
Ok I'm confused....I'm attempting to update the ROM on my S620 to the
RUU_Excalibur_HTC_WWE_1.11.405.4_4.1.13.28_02.63.90_Ship.exe
in an attempt to get the WiFi Drivers on my phone. It says my current image version is 1.16.110.01 and I would be updating to 1.11.405.4
Why would my test version be a later version? Is this smart to overwrite this later version? And how can I save this version first before I overwrite it. Thanks!

yes your rom is newer but it is still a TEST ROM , WICH MEANS that its is not the shipped rom without the bugs and in your case the wifi drivers that is why it is a test rom,if you want to install a shipped htc s620 rom then go ahead be sure to downgrade the bootloader first!!!!!
I already installed the above shipped HTC S620 ROM. All I did is run the exe file and let it install. I did not downgrade the bootloaded. In fact, I have no idea what that means?
Everything seems to be working fine on the phone now though, and WiFi is now available
What issue might I have with not downgrading the bootloader?
you will have a downraded bootloader as a result
Any ideas on where to find the ROM, now that they are not being hosted at xda-developers?

Newest HTC Aussie ROM

Yep, they release it a few days ago on their website and i have tried 3 times to DL it but each time it gives me an error right at the end saying the file cannot be read or something... RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.00.707.18_6275_1.46.30.11_108_Ship.exe
Can someone who has already downloaded it upload it to rapidshare or something please?
I only plan on using it if my phone needs to be fixed so it is still under warranty........
thanks
Already covered here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321182
If you are still having problems downloading PM me.
thanks- didnt see that- managed to dl it using getright this time....
I can't install this rom...
The configuration stop always in 28% !!
Seems to be the problem with IPL/SPL upgrade included in the ROM package. Many people had this problem with the new SEA and ANZ WM6 ROM. The upgrade only works on CID matching or CID unlocked devices.
You can find many hints to solve your problem using the search function "stuck in bootloader trinity"
Solution1: reconstruct the new ROM without IPL/SPL upgradefile (see search results)
Solution2: unlock your Device CID and try the upgrade again
Hope this helps.

[ReQ] WWE Official ROM v 1.93.421.x for South Africa Diamond

I have had my Diamond for a week now and the battery life is lacking terrible even after selecting GSM only and disabling GPRS auto attach. I have the Ver 1.37.421.3 WWE ROM with Radio 1.00.25.03.
I understand that Radio Ver 1.00.25.05 gives somewhat better battery life and the Ver 1.93.421.x ROM is also more responsive. If any body can post the ROM somewhere, I would appreciate it.
I do not want to update to a non South African ROM due to warranty issues.
Any help would be appreciated.
LOOKS LIKE YOU MAY BE STUCK WITH WHAT YOU HAVE
oppppss....sorry for shouting
Hello, I think Dumping would be good. or try the htc website for the rom.

Local website does not have the update, I have to take it in to them and all the other ROM updates will not install on my version due to the locale. Seems as if a day off from work and a drive to the agents is the only option except if I load the UK ROM with the HardSPL fix..
Thanks for replying anyway.
@adsl3g you have PM.
i have the same issue. i'd like to flash another radio at least.
All the roms are on rapidshare and that site looses its marlbes when i try to download anything. All i get all the time is "your ip address is already downloading a file". I guess it cant tell the difference between a person and a proxy server.

Yes thanks a million for the info - all went well, battery life seems to be better and the overall speed of the Diamond has definately improved.. I will upload that ROM for access to members of this site in due course when my bandwith will allow me to.
