Instructions PDF File on how to upgrade XDA to PPC 2003 - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Hello
Please find this link for upgarde instructions for XDA which was posted at www.sourceo2.com click
here
If this link doesn't work for any reason i have mirrored the file somewhere else, cause it might require login details
here
but i forget to say it's available to selected O2 developers and beta testers under NDA ( non-disclosure agreement )
This upgrade is only for evaluation purposes, to confirm application compatibility with Pocket PC 2003. It is not the commercial release of the software, and cannot be made available outside of O2 to customers or end users. as the instructions file says
A new release of the OS, customised for O2 xda, will be available later.
This software download is only available to those approved O2 application developers who have been preselected to test prior to launch.
if you are one of them and want's to download the software from the link below using your given User Name and Password.

wwoowww!
is this real?? where is it from?? how can we 'end users' get our hands on that?? eventhough my xda is dead right now, i'm sure i get it working again - and then i want to have this upgrade!!

Hi othman !
In O2 website is nothing about PPC2003.
I am wrong or it is joke ?
Sebi

I believe it is a real thing, may be the v.4.00.05 rom will be leaked soon :twisted: .

Care to share? thats what the forums are for

this is a fake
Hi !
This seems like a fake to me...
The screenshots are all from PPC2002!!!
The GPRS symbol is the old one.
Jabba

No, it's a genuine document but using screenshots from PPC2002 as these are incidental to the installation process.
The Xda PPC2003 build is only available to selected O2 developers under NDA.

I found it here. Am I looking at the wrong software?

So, believe me, it is the wrong File. This is Pocket PC 2002
It is version3.17.03 ENG from the 15.05.2003
It works here on my xda fine, but itś no Pocket PC 2003...

I've just downloaded a ROM (version 3.18) for the DOPOD device (Same as XDA). On the website which seems to be in chinese or some asian language it suggests that version 3.18 is the pocket pc 2003 version. Pictures on the site seem to back this up. The screen shots shows that the ROM seems to have english support. Anyway the problem is that the ROM is in NB1 format. I don't have a SD Card so can not convert to NBF. If anyone is able to tell me any other way to convert to an exe so that I can upload it to my XDA it would be much appreciated.
if people want to have a look at the site the address is:
http://52xda.com/dispbbs.asp?boardID=13&ID=3810
you may need to login which will mean registering with the site... just mean decypehering a bit of the chinese.
if you can't get to the above address, the downlaods for the ROM which are packed as WINRAR files are as follows:

A method to fix corrupted GSM ROM xda.

Hello here is a way that i have just used to fix my 900/1800 (O2) xda.
You first need a SD Card reader/writer and an SD card.
Download RSU_ENG.exe from here. -- SORRY URL NOT WORKING --
Run the .exe and unpack PROGRAMME B to a location.
Copy the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB file onto your SD card and then onto your XDA. Run the cab file and the program will install and then reset your XDA and then the upgrade process will begin.
I recommend taking out any SIM cards before upgrading cause it may stall it, but even if it does just soft reset and try again.
Hope this helps.

What rom version is there on the dutch O2 side?
You are mentioning a download of a rom file from the dutch o2 site.
O2 Netherlands didn't give any updates for a long time.
Is this a recent ROM?
Thanks
Conrad
Yes is appears to be quite recent.
The versons are 3.15.15 for the PDA and 4.16 for the GSM Rom.
The directory the files are in is only a few days old by the looks.
Thanks
Eladsalad thanks for your work and info
Update disappeared?!
It looks like O2 Netherlands has removed the update from it's server.
Anybody knows where to get it?
FvH
-edit-
ok ive started up an ftp server for probably the next 24-48 hrs so people can download rsu_eng.exe to repair their gsm roms.

FTP IS GONE.

I've tried to upgrade the ROM and something gone wrong.
Now I have a XDA with a CE version but no Radio or protocol.
Can anybody tell what to do?
When I reboot the XDA I get one first screen (with the O2 logo) with only one version nr. 3.16.13. After one minute, above the 3.16.13 I get a R and above a G without any numbers. after that I get a blank screen whit a blue bar on top.
Please help me

I have the Official T-mobile Windows Mobile 2003 ROM!!!!

I have in my power right now which is supposedly the final T-mobile Windows mobile 2003 release.
From the source that I got it from:
I got my hands on a T-Mobile 2003 release for PPCPE!
This is a pretty complete build, and it also updates your radio stack.
Usual disclaimers apply.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I tried doing it but it tells me that my device is not compatible with the program. I'm guessing is because I'm running the 2003 version that is been circling around the web. Also, I have the AT&T Radio Stack update. I'll try to Restore the original ROM, and then upgrade tomorrow.
One weird thing though, the readme file looks like like the last upgrade that they did (old). It menctions that updates the Media Player to 8.5, whereas the WM2K3 has the WMP 9.0, hmmmm...weird.
Whoever wants to try it, and gives me his FTP server in the next 20 min gets it! is late and I'm going to sleep, if not I'll send it to you guys tomorrow
Update!!!, I couldn't wait and I did the upgrade!!!
once you downgrade things get easier.
Bootimage that says T-mobile "Test Only Not for Sale" :lol:
Rom Version 4.00.10 ENG
ROM date: 06/20/03
Radio Version: 6.24.00
Microsoft Pocket PC Version 4.20.1081 (Build 13100)
I will keep updated!! As I play with it
UPDATE:. One of the programs included is ClearVue PDF and ClearView Presentation. Also AOL AIM!
Also, in the Network settings, there is an "auto pick" and the regular GPRS and VPN GPRS
GPRS is ZIPPPPY!!!
The OS seems very stable and fast, of course, I don't have anything installed. I gotta get some sleep, so, I'll catch up tomorrow, (or later for that matter)
What is the difference from the version 4.00.05 that is available here on the forum? Is it better or more stable (less bugs)?
You think I can flash the just the ROM of T-Mobile version over my xda Asian version without flashing the radio stack?
Does it have the Media Player 9 or still 8.5? And if it's the official release, why does it say "Test only not for sale" on the boot up screen?
Thanks in advance.
Yorch, can you temporary put it in your website??
by the way, its down for quite awhile already right?? what happened??
Thanks to Yorch:

There are 2 ROMs there:
- official-tmo2003.rar (the exe with Radio update)
- 4.00.10 NK.nbf.zip (only the ROM (nk.nbf) without the Radio part)
EDIT:
I haven't tested TMO2003 myself, so be carefull, especially on a non-Tmobile phone because ther is a RADIO update included inside. Maybe we can split the package, but I have to check that later.
(Thanks ejdmoo)
Remember people, this next release from Tmobile includes a radio update. This is the realm where "just reflash with a different ROM" doesn't work.

Are you saying you can't just use the extracted NK.nbf file on its own to do a SD flash?
You can do that, but don't run the EXE if you do not want to update your radio stack.
Radio 6.24.00... so it's 900/1900, right?
Gave it a quick try but going back to 4.00.05.
Problems with phone part, no GPRS signal. and obvious T-Mobile branding.
Was interested in AIM but was not built into ROM or at least I couldn't see it :roll:

I don't see why not, I will try to extract the ROM image later, when I get home. We might be able to cook it too in the kitchen

Yeah, is Windows Mobile 2003, so It does have WMP9, the readme file I guess Is just the old one, this file is not the Final and Official Release, is the T-mobile release of it, I'm guessing is the Pre-release version and used for testing, and you should considered as such. (if you want to only run whatever is official then don't run it, But If you want to be in the bleeding edge then go ahead and do it). I'm assuming once they are ready for prime time, they will rewrite the Readme file, and take out the bootimage "Test only".

Unfortunately, I'm using my current ISP (Earthlink), which only gives you 10MB of space and limited bandwidth, If someone would be willing to donate Webspace (around 10MB) I would certainly appreciate it (and the community too). I would love to host all the ROMS for people to have a central location and easy access to them, and have a kitchen where people can customize their own ROM, but unfortunately, I don't have the space
Was interested in AIM but was not built into ROM or at least I couldn't see it

Yeah, is not ovbious, is in the \Windows directory, just create a shortcut to Programs, and that's it. (is pretty much the same as PAC-MAN was hidden in the 1st ROM release [OZONE].
I've alreay extracted the nk.nbf and put it on my FTP.
My FTP is limitted to 5 connections and 45 Kbyte/s. So it is a little slow because when there are 5 users connected you should get around 9KBps. But I guess you guys (and girls ) don't mind since my FTP has continually 5 connections since I put it on my FTP.
Another news from the source of this file:
I got this from a source deep in Tmobile land. I was told this is VERY close the the final release they'll make in August. It is WM2003 that has been customized for tmobile.

How do you install a RAR file?
I have searched for this info on google and on xda and I cannot find.
Thank you in advance.
You can open it with Winrar or Powerarchiver and a lot of other compression programs.
Good luck

Question...?
I have a question, if I load up the test rom on my T-Mo, will I be able to load the final release without a hitch or should i back up my orignal rom before??
Its always a good idea to backup your ROM and I strongly suggest doing so!
one question, I got an XDA with me, I know I will **** up my radio by loading in the PPC 2003 final edition..is there anyway which i can run the update without upgrading the radio stack??
thanks

O2 Rom Image for upgrading to XDA-developers version needed

Can someone please tell me where to get or how to produce a Rom Image. I don't have a Unix computer at my disposal, let alone be a computer developer... So was waiting for an executable installer...
When executing the Summer Program A.exe file, the program stops and asks for downloading a Rom Image and then to try again.
But I can't find it anywhere. Reading the Rom Upgrade String of the Developers XDA Upgrade, left me frustrated.... Eveyone else seems to get it right but I'm still stuck seaching for the Rom Image..... And Hell, yes, do I want the Developerts version in working order on my XDA :!: :!:
Is anyone willing to explain me why it's not working for me :?: I'm using Windows 98.
[email protected]
Please read a lot more of the posts in here. It is spelled out clearly and make sure you UNDERSTAND that if you use programme a to upgrade your ROM you could kill your device making it just a fancy paperweight.

I'm sure I read somewhere that Windows 98 gives a few funnies in this, but I could be wrong. Search for windows 98 on this site and you might find some info.

Upgrade to XP.
That saying, if i went back to xp would it be simply plugging in the usb cable from the phone and using the rom file would it work or would i have to use other prog to cid unlock even though its a tmobile phone on a t-mobile contract
as your reply doesnt help things by just downgrading back to xp
Went back to xp same error 260, gone back to vista but still same problem
