Any body knows for xda 1, you can keep checking new mail arrival through GPRS?
I heard people using xda 2 can do that. But is there any chance xda 1 can do the same thing?
Actually, when u do the setting for POP account, it ask u to set how many minutes to check for new messages. But it never work because the GPRS will close automatically.
Thanks very much. :?
Sure it can be done!
Take a look at:
http://www.o2.co.uk/productsservices/xda/romupgrade/0,,170,00.html
BTW the above is one of many!
also where are you located?

I am using the most updated PPC2002 version already. (3.20.06 ROM and 4.21 Radio)
Do u mean I have to upgrade to PPC2003?
I doubt that because they are not very stable for me to use in Hong Kong so far from other guy's comments in this website.
Thanks very much.

Since you're already running the latest upgrade its suppose to work but since it doesn't I would have to say that your always-on settings are at fault. So go to Start, Settings, Connections and make sure that its set to not disconnect.
HTH
Are you sure that it is also for xda1 ?
I can't locate that "not disconnect" setting.
Please clarify.
Thanks so much.

It should say some thing like this:
GPRS connection to remain active once the device enters power save mode.
At least it does on the PPC 2002 latest AT&T ROM and the XDA developers Special Edition ROM v1.2. (which is bases on the O2 3.17.03 ROM).
HTH
That's really strange for my O2 xda!
I only found a setting called GPRS Suspend Mode setting.
It said,
When you are in power-saving mode, do you want to:
- Keep GPRS connection
- End GPRS connection
I clicked on the first one.
Then I close it, and connect to GPRS.
Just for a while, the connection ends by itself.
Any thought?
Thanks a lot again.
Yeap thats the correct setting and the same one I'm speaking of!
I read a lot of bad reports about the 4.21 radio stack so it might be at fault.
Maybe you should think about upgrading to the Qtec radio stack, heard nothing but good reports on that one.
The Qtek 1010 Radio Stack Upgrade can be found at:
http://www.carrierdevices.com.au/downloads.php?region=Asia Pacific
Download Radio Upgrade File : RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG).exe
BTW read the WARNING.
BTW do you have a URL for that newer o2 ROM, I'd like to install it and see if it does the same for me/
HTH
Here it is.
http://www.myxda.com/web/template/SoftwareUpgradeIntroduction.vm
BTW, I am a bit nervous to install the radio file cause I have bad experience that almost kill my phone.
Is it really okay just to install the radio file?

Unable to download, it kept asking for a IMEI.
You wouldn't happen to have the direct download link would you?
Oh! I didn't realize that...sorry.
I am still a bit nervous for upgrading (or is it actually downgrading) to the i-mat ROM.
If it is downgrading, I will definitely not try that...
Hi Qman,
I just notice that Yorch.net got the 3.20.06 ROM.
Also they have the 4.00.21 ROM (pre-release T-Mobile version). Is it for the US market only?
Chris
hi; Are you sure that Yorch.net got the 3.20.06 ROM??? Can't find it. I have downgraded my XDA yesterday from the kitchen wm2003 because of bugs to kitchen 2002 but it says 3.17.03 and not the one you mention???!!!
Hey,
That's not from the "kitchen". It's from the "upgrade" just under "kitchen". Check it out again and you will find it.
Anybody knows that 4.00.21 is good for o2 xda?
Chris
hmmm, currently I am using it
so far so good but there is one major BUT for me - most possibly that version makes wipe out my 256MB SD card every up to 48 hours
for me it is a major .... item
regards,
monika
That's terrible. What about the GPRS and phone reception?
To be honest, I won't use it if it will wipe off the sd contents every 2 days.
Have you tried to burn again?
so far GPRS is not working ....
but that is due local GSM provider that has some complicates setup as to make GPRS to work, phone recption is ok ... I am living in area where virtually all GSM phones had reception problems (i.e. majority of nokia phones), although in a city center it is perfect ....
just for you to know ... I have received a link from one of the group members for the most recent update - look there for details :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4556&highlight=4+01+00
regards, monika
Thanks very much for your reply.
But I think that Upgrade exe file is for US only cause that include the radio upgrade as well.
So, are you able to downgrade your 4.00.21 easily?
I am not sure whether its worth to downgrade your device to 3.20.06 to see whether its a real problem with SD card. And to upgrade it to 4.00.21 again to verify it. It may happen only at some occasion as you know electronic device can never guarrentee functioning 100%.
Hope you can fix your device.
Cheers

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?

-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.

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.

hello,

if i upgraded with the t-mobile 4.00.21 version, does it also upgrade the radio stack? does it affect my band selection?
i used the exe file.

As much as i know, it's normal, that the device shows as B1 modell....
Which Radiostack are you using?
4.21.00. could be?
Not a good idea to use .exe method to upgrade, use the SD card method instead. You may need to manually change the radio to the local band by going into the bootloader and changing it to whatever it's not on now. One of the upgrades I did stopped the phone component totally and brought everything else to a standstill, but it was ten second fix.
Thanks for the new kitchen, it gives another option where there were few.
thanks, i just changed in the bootloader into GSM 900/1800. now it works, i just hope it doesn't only use the 900 and 1900(which i have no use in Europe). because in my device info it says B1 model. Maybe it's just because of the t-mobile upgrade, but doesn't REALLY change it.
let's hope.
thanks anyway.

No, it's all sweet now. I think the configuration in the O/S changes the device configuration, so the bootloader option and the O/S option both mirror one another. As long as it works you're fine.

Heh, he mustn't have liked the company in the other thread he made though :shock:
i thought it was humorous that when I went to the att site on upgrade to pocket pc 2003 they referenced this formum for instruction on how to do via sd
I was looking at the website for "Traffic-I". This is a subscription system for traffic info (and a sort of GPS ?)
The free trial refers to XDA2 not XDA1. I assume that is because the XDA2 has W2003 0n as standard?
Is it possible to upgrade my O/S to 2003. I'm not sure what version i have as i bought mine used.
Thanks

Yes you can do it my recommendation persists just on upgrading the RUU not the RSU, there's a lots of threads posting how to upgrade to WM2003, search, read more and learn
Thanks for the tips. I assume then that upgrading the RUU only, will allow all Wm2003 programs to work on my device. This upgrade is reversible if the threads regarding original back ups are followed?

I've had to stop using my XDA for the moment. It's a great piece of kit but the incoming signal quality is quite poor (Compared to a normal mobile) I've missed several calls that have gone straight to my answerphone when i normally never miss any. There are some threads about signal quality but shouldnt this be built in from new as being totaly reliable. Any comments appreciated.
RSU flashing might help ... but it's VERY risky

Yes point taken on that!. To be quite honest the RUU part of the XDA (The programs etc) work really well and i'm not too bothered about any mods there. I'ts just that i use it for work and i can't really afford to miss calls and not being an expert in these things i find it hard to accept that the incoming signal quality is dependant on what sort of RUU software you have. :roll:
I suppose that as i'm not using it at all, and upgrading is risky but recoverable? and if it was out of action temporarily whilst a software failure was being put right then this would not be a problem for me. What i would worry about is if it all went belly up would i be able to get help on restoring it back to it's former glory?
Doug
recovering failed RSU flashing is a very tough process, and might not work as well ... you have to be very careful.
As a matter of fact, I 've done many RSU flashing before and all went OK ... but I know about many horrible stories about dead devices that can't be repaired except by h/w replacement.
If you can't really use it, it's ok to go for RSU flashing but pick the right RSU upgrade ... and stay away from O2 RSU 4.21
OK Biso007 i think you have convinced me. I think i will reluctantly sell the XDA (Someone will get a bargain as it has TT3 and maps on it) and wait a little while and see what else comes up.
Cheers
Doug
Hey, first post, n first i wanna say thanks! The unlock app worked a treat, i now have 3 XDA v1's to sell, and one for my self, all unlocked!
So, onto my problem...
I have a plain (unlocked) XDA which ive been using religiously, and i want to update it to ppc2003. So i have 2 questions.
1. o2 have the update software on their website. Is it an upgrade to 2003?
2. If the above is a big NO. Where can i purchase the upgrade?
One little niggle tho, if i update it to 2003, will i lose the 'unlocked' status on the phone? Or is it unlocked for good?
Reference stuff so you guys dnt have to ask:
ROM VER: 3.17.03
RADIO VER: 4.21.00
Many thanks guys!

1: I personally don't know this, someone else can answer im sure.
2: You can get the update here (cook your own ROM) http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/
Finally I don't think it will be relocked after being unlocked, but again the experts can answer better than I. Good Luck.
Okay, so the second link gives me all these options to make roms. Thing is, i have no idea what to pick for version etc once ive picked pocketpc2003.
Anybody able to shed some light?
DB
EDIT: Bit the bullet, updating now using what i THINK is the right rom. Will let you know.
EDIT: Seemed to work ok. For some reason tho, on every reboot, i get some error bout an app not being compatible with ppc2003. So im rebuilding a virgin ROM and will go from there.
EDIT: Same problem, this rom has nadda but a new bootscreen, today screen, and the 'reg-hacks'. I'm all out of ideas.
'This program only works with Windows Mobile 2003 (4.20.1081)
Its one of the reg hacks that is the problem, cant remember which one though.
Disable
Code:
Fix 'multiple resets make device slow' bug (not A.30.0x or 4.01.1x)
This should cause the problem. Or delete manually the file wm03hotfix from the startup of your device....
HTH

Excellent.
Now i know what the problem is, i'll back everything up, and make me a new ROM tonight.
Cheers again guys,

What's Up everyone?
I updated my Cingular 8125 to WM6 Faria edition and installed the radio patch 02.61.11; however, for the past 3 days people have been sending me text message as well as calling me and leaving me voicemails which do not come in.
I do not know if this is due to the radio version i installed, so i thought i'd asked you guys and see if anyone knows of a more stable version.
Any suggestions will be appreciate it!

All radio roms above 2.19.11 have missed call and sms issues with WM6! The best one for WM6 so far is 2.19.11! Try it; it should fix your problem. Keep on mind the reception is not as good as later roms.
In the next few days i was going to make a thread to try to unify all the "problems with WM6 on Cingular" and "missing calls, no voicemail notification" threads into one thread. This seems to be a major issue but is largely Cingular specific.
The goal of the thread will be to focus on why radios over 2.19 (including Cingular's own 2.25) get the issue and what can be done to fix it and allow upgraded radios. Be it registery fixes, .dll replacement, or perhaps even cracking open and comparing radio roms.
The thread will NOT be about "I have this problem what do I do???" nor will be about solving issues with providers other then Cingular. However any good leads or fixes may aid in helping others with other providers.
also 2.40 is good for fones that arent cingular...been alot of cingular problems but t-mo is working just fine woth it
Hey Calouro, thanks for the suggestion. I definitely want to give 02.19.11 a try. I looked for it in the FTP site but they dont have the US version of it ( ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard/Radio_Roms/ ) I was wondering if you happend to know of a site where i can download that version of the radio so i can try it on my phone.
I'll keep searching around anyways but thanks a lot for the heads up!

There is no US version of the 2.19 radio that I know of. You just use the UK one on the ftp site (thats what I've been running for about 3 months now and it works fine on Cingular here in the US).
mfrazzz,
Thank you for clearing that out for me. I went ahead and downloaded T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radinly.zip and when i try to run the ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe in order to start flashing my phone, I get the following error message:
ERROR [300]: INVALID UPDATE TOOL
This update utility cannot be used for yoru PDA phone. Please get newer update utility.
Any idea why would i get this error message?
Thanks again and sorry to be a pain!
looking for 2.19
Could someone send me the 2.19 ROM, I have been searching the forum and to no avail. Many thanks in advance. I can't bear missing calls/SMS with the AT&T sim anymore.
