Had to take my O2 back to the shop because ofthis. I live in hong kong and it says on the label for my o2 its from singapour.

What steps did you do to "brick" the O2?

Yep. I upgraded to the 1.06 earlier. Then i flashed again to the 1.11 ROM, and then again to the 1.11 ROM which 27MB unlocked extended ROM.
Everything's cool.

Which 1.06 and 1.11 firmware did you use?

I used the Qtek one. The latest (and current) one that I have uses the copy from Anansky (see thread in Forum\Magician).

Understand that O2 is releasing its updated firmware very soon (this quarter). Wondering if it is 1.06 or 1.11? Will the O2 Plus be included in the EXT-ROM?

After upgrading to 27MB ROM, some extROM files were missing.. e.g. O2_connect and T9 Phone pad... Do you need to back up the extROM beforehand and manually copy back after the upgrade?

Yep. I backup the 1.11 extended ROM before i re-flashed to the 1.11 w/ Big Storage (which doesn't come with any extended ROM). After the re-flash, install the programs you want from the extended ROM you backed up. You should have a copy from the original extended ROM that came with your Mini so you can install those telco specific settings (eg. Starhub, Singtel) etc.

Is it GER or WWE? I'm looking for new T-Mobile WWE Rom :wink: ?
It seems to be 1.12 GER... will try it this evening.
@dary: How did you find this update?

Which ROM to use? (I've read tons of old post)

I have read a bunch of post on this but still not finding the answers. So, please forgive me if this is a repeat question.
I browsed thru the ftp site (under the Magician folder), but not sure of which ROM to download since there are so many of them and not sure of which is the most stable version (O2, i-mate, qtek, MDA?).
I have the O2 XDA II mini with the following version:
- ROM version: 1.03.00 WWE.
- ROM date: 11/01/04
- Radio version: 1.01.00
- Protocol version: 1337.38
- ExtROM version: 1.03.166 WWE
Or, should I use the one that I downloaded from seeo2.com site: the filename is:
ma_o2asia_11100_922_11100_ship.exe?
Also, when I update the ROM, would it lock my phone? I bought the phone in USA so I assume the phone is unlock.
Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again,
William
I'd use the Qtek S100 1.11 ROM (it's what i use now) as it's completely stable (1.12 seems not to be..) and then apply bigstorage to it..
How about the O2 ROM? I'd like to stay with O2 ROM (instead of using the Imate or Qtek ROM). Could anybody point me to the correct ROM to use? I browsed around the ftp but there are so many of them (extrom, bigstorage, modified, shipped). Thanks for the help!

The O2 ROM on their website was put up in May and is v1.11 and it's working OK for me.
I bought a T-Mobile Compact, and someone had loaded the I-Mate 1.11 ROM on there. I kept having a problem wth the GPRS failing to connect. I then upgraded to the 1.12 ROM, and it was even worse. I kept the 1.12 radio, and then downgraded to the basic 1.06 ROM. It is stable, and honestly, I don't see what the differences are besides now I can connect to GPRS whenever I want.
I also applied the bigstorage hack, and only applied the basic extended ROM cab files from 1.12 and the bluetooth patch from 1.06. I received my Compact last week, and applied 1.06 yesterday. So far, no issues have cropped up. Man, this Compact is so much less buggy than my MDAIII. The MDAIII was so feature packed, but had sooo many problems.
Hope that helps.
plz, give me a link to O2 1.11eng, i cannot log to o2 as my iemi belongs to imate, thanks

I have a QTEK 8300, same as the Imate SP5m. I downloaded and installed the SP5m ROM (found it via search of this web site), don't have the link any longer. It's much better than the original QTEK Rom, and this one is a lot faster than the previous Mobile 5 ROM that came on the device.

UPDATE: I just loaded the current QTEK ROM for the 8300 (find it on this forum); it's great; much faster than the Imate SP5m I had installed previously. E shows vs. G when connected to an Edge network.
has anyone got a qtek rom with spanish language on it??? that's the only reason why i still have the imate rom... or any way to get the t9 in spanish to add it??
nevermind... found out by myself:

Hello from australia guys!
I have a JAMin, with this version ROM:
ROM: 2.13.9.23 WWE
Radio: 1_02.20.21
ExtROM: 2.13.9.122
Just wondering if this one is newer : JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship.zip
Cheers
Chris
Oh, and the rom i have installed currently is a imate rom, designed for australian customers
the one you have is
I have a JAMin, with this version ROM:
ROM: 2.13.9.23 WWE
Radio: 1_02.20.21
ExtROM: 2.13.9.122
the one your asking about is
ROM: 2.13.9.23 WWE
Radio: 1_02.20.21
ExtROM: 2.13.9.123
so almost exactly the same exept the extROM is a bit newer.
I don't have any inside info but I'm kinda expecting a new rom from imate for Jamin, there are updates floating around.
thanks for the reply, does the newer ext rom mean anything
cheers
chris
I have the last version but upgraded from the shipping vesion so I could activate the a2dp .
i have fiddled a bit but have not broken it.
I am now not too keen to play as it takes a bit to restore my settings/ programmes etc.
I haven't looked here for a while and nothing seems to have changed much

Have you managed to get A2DP working with the latest ROM from the i-mate website (the one question starting this thread was about)? As you rightly point out it is a bit of a hassle to do the flash, and I don't think I can be bothered untill the upgrade includes A2DP... Cheers

If you mean this one then yes
ROM: 2.13.9.23 WWE
Radio: 1_02.20.21
ExtROM: 2.13.9.123 edit :changed the last digit
I was not aware there is any later version and I just checked the imate FTP site to confirm this.

AFAIK, the newest ROM is a Dopod ROM 215 available at the XDA ftp site. Like you, I didn't want to reinstall apps and re-setup all settings, so I just did this radio ROM upgrade which is also at the XDA ftp site, it doesn't require a hard reset, it just changes the radio ROM. PDAMobiz_Prophet_G3_RadioRom_v2.30.21.exe.
There is a G4 version, if that applies to you.

1.72 ROM Upgrade (WWE)

Hi, can anyone please assist to extract the cabs for the 1.72 ROM upgrade as posted in the HTC UK website? I heard the camera flash problem is fixed after this ROM upgrade.
the camera software in the 1.72 rom (the one i installed yesterday) is version 6.26 (build 1922.3428) if that helps...???
and yes! the camera flash problem is solved for me! it still does the 2-stage flash but i think they've tweaked the 'shutter' response...
pics in the dark look much better now
Can you please help me to extract the cab file?
Were did you find the 1.72 Rom Upgrade for HD2?
I just been on the site and the latest ROM update was 1.66 WWE released back in January.

You need to check region. Latest ROM for SEA region is 1.66.
I tried downloading the new ROM, unfortunately it doesnt install on my HD2 saying incompatible with your phone even though I got mine from Vodafone. No clue whats going wrong there.
You can also download the 1.72 ROM from the vodafone website.
dont know about anyone else, but i cant see a 1.72 update for any region on the HTC website... UK/SEA or otherwise
Hi
I cannot see the 1.72 Rom anywhere on the htc uk website? Where did you manage to find it?
thanks.
