Radio Newbie Question - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

I have a Siemens SX56 using AT&T Wireless as a carrier.
The phone is running the following:
ROM Verison: 3.14.03 ENG
ROM Date: 09/27/02
Radio Version: 6.12
Protocol Version: 324e4
I was wondering if this is the newest radio version and software ROM version I can use. I went to O2's site and found other versions, but being new to the xda, I don't want to screw things up. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :shock:

You sould not use an european rom en radio on an american device.
Because your radio is 900/1900 band and the european is 900/1800 band.
You may be able to use the rom update but I'm not sure, but you can not use the radio update.

Radio
Thanks....
Are you sure about the rom update?
I am using 3.14.03
Is there any list anywhere that describes the difference between the versions?
Thanks,
Bob

Unlocking T-mobile Pocket PC

Hello,
I have purchased just last week T-mobile pocket PC in the US, however now I am back at my home (Eastern Europe) where we use GSM (Alcatel)
The following is rom and radio version:
Rom version: 3.14.40 ENG
ROM date: 11/26/02
Radio Version: 6.18
Protocol version: 324e4
My question is what do I need to unlock this to work with my GSM company. When I paid for this ($625) I paid a phone withouth service activation.
Regards,
Bucky
Hy.
Why don't you try this question in the unlocking-section?
Why don't you read the other tasks in this section?
To unlock your T-Mobile pocket PC you need a serial cable to connect your PC with your PDA and the XDA-Manipulator-software from www.xda-developers.com
An other problem that exists will be the different GSM frequencies. As you have in USA 1900MHz you'll have in europe 900/1800Mhz. But i'm not sure if this is really so. You have to take a look at your provider (Alcatel)
Regards
Stefan
Stefan, thank you very much for your prompt reply.
However, I have been reading that the unlocked versions of T-mobile
had a Radio Version 3* or 4*, and the RADIO VERISION on my T-mobile is 6.18, thus I am not sure if this software will work out or not.
Please reply as soon as possible if you know the answer to this one.
Hey Bucky.
Most people hav Radio VErsion 3* oder 4* becuase this are european Radio Versions.
The US VErsions have othe numbers like your 6* .....
Like the posting of a XDA Developer the manipulater should work with all available Radio VErsions.
Just try it......
I see. However when I read the xda manipulator, the developers say that they have tried this only on radio version 4.06 and 4.10
Quote: " We've tested this on Radio version 4.06 and 4.10. If you dare, please let us know if you find it to work on other radio versions".
I didn't find any message that someone tried with Radio version 6.18
Do you know anyone that has tried this on US versions of T-mobile?
We have reports of succesful unlocking on US versions as well. XDAmanipulator will work with any radio version.
Peter
Hey just to add I have been one of them. You have pretty much all the same settings as mine. Just follow the instruction on the manipulators site and it will work fine. You will be done in seconds.

Help: Upgrade QTEK 900/1900

Hi all,
I have tried to read and understand how to upgrade my PocketPC phone, but unfortunately I am still confused:
I have non branded Microsoft "qtek" phone modelW10B1 (GSM 900/1900) with
ROM VERSION: 3.14.P6 ENG
ROM DATE: 09/26/02
Radio version: 6.18
Protocol version 324e4
Where to find the correct upgrade files?
or can someone kindly send them to me?
I would appreciate ANY help in this matter...
All the best,
Ampi
ROM is not the point. You can cook your ROM from the kitchen here. But the radio stack is so critical since you are using 900/1900. You better get the last update from your network provider or at least ask some one who's using the same network.

Has anybody figured out how to unlock this?
Has anyone tried to downgrade the ROM and the Radio stack to see if this the XDAUnlock works.
I'm curious to see if I will run into Radio Stack problems if I attempt to do that.
