Yeah, right.
An unofficial ROM is available from the Warranty centre, on which thousands of people rely on for support.
That's kinda like saying that Microsoft have released Longhorn as it is now (bugs and all) and are supporting it anyway! :roll:
Hmmm... Appearently, they DID have the 1.31 ROM at the service center, but the place I went to is only a collection point and they need to send the unit over to the workshop to have it flash, and they said FIVE days!!!
And after chatting with the rep there, the only difference between O2's 1.31 ROM and the launch ROM is the BT patch! Leochan2005 in this forum already has the 1.31 ROM and looking at the info he has posted... It does look like it's only the BT patch.. Why on earth would O2 change the ROM version to 1.31 if it's only the BT patch????????
Here's Leochan2005 ROM info...
ROM: 1.31.00 WWE
ROM Date: 31 Dec 2004
Radio Version: 1.02.00
Protocol Version: 1.337.32
ExROM version 1.31.920 WWE
Sorry for late reply: My 1.31 version, the bluetooth version is 1.0.0 Build 3500.
It detects bluetooth device much faster than my XDAII
But do not know why the radio rom is still 1.02, and do not know whether I can only update this radio rom into more latest version
I remembered that I bought my machine on 27 or 28 Dec 2004, do not know why the rom date is 31 Dec 2004

You can update only radio ROM. To do this backup your device, download official ROM update, extract it with WinRar into any directory, delete files ms_.nbf and nk.nbf. Then enter bootloader, place your device into cradle and run BaUpgradeUt.exe. This would update only radio ROM.
Can you dump your ROM to SD-card and upload to XDA-developers FTP? You may use this tool: http://mamaich.kasone.com/imate/ROMDump.rar
To use it copy ARMV4Rel\ROMDump.exe to your device and run it. It would create a 64-mb file on your SD-card.
And can you also make a copy of your extended ROM? The easiest way to do this is to install TotalCommander on your device, open directory "\extended_rom\" (without quotes, you have to type its name manually, it is hidden) and copy its contents somewhere.
RE
Is this ROM meant for the XDA II? What does it contain? WM2003SE, WMP 10, landscape mode support...?
:roll:
so any1 putting this rom up for downloading?
Dear all
Can you tell me how can I dowload the rom update in order to update my radio rom?
Also, if failure during update, can I revert back to the rom backup in the SD card using the method mentioned above? Can you tell me how to do this?
Dear all
By the way, can I use the radio rom from XDAII for my XDAIIs as I understand XDAIIs is a 4 brand radio but XDAII is only a 3 brand?

I heard at the CEBit conference in Las Vegas, i-mate released a BT patch that did that.
There exists an official 1.31 English ROM upgrade. It is called i-mate_PDA2k_Arabic_13100_112_10600_SHIP.exe and can be downloaded from Imate site. After installation you should edit extended ROM and remove unnecessary arabisation and operator customisations. With this method I've updated my device to:
Rom: 1.31.00 WWE
Radio: 1.06.02
Extrom: 1.31.112 (cooked)
Does anyone know the difference between the radio stack 1.06 and 1.06.02? Is the 1.06.02 the latest version?
I don't know the technical differances, but 1.06.02 is the latest version .I have much clearer b/t, much improved wifi and bluetooth range, and no hollow sound through the bluetooth headset.I get 25 feet range on b/t. I am running the dangaard 1.22.167 rom on my pda2k.

Hi guys,
Does any of you guys know where to download the ROM 1.06.02 for O2 XdaIIs? Any reply will be greatly appreciated.
thanks.
hdbueller
What was you'r old radio version? I am currently running v1.06.00 wonder if upgrading to 1.06.02 is that much of a difference?
Thanks
I was running the 1.22.162 Imate rom and it was 1.06.00 . Now with the Qtek 1.22.167 it is 1.06.02 .It made a big difference on mine.I am still very happy with this Rom. 8) 8)

Garinx,
You can download the radio rom from here - ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/RadioROM/BA_FRA_BelDT_12202_558_10602_Ship/ . This file is radio only so it will support any BlueAngel based device.
By the way, this is ONLY the radio file!!!! You will have to place this radio_.nbf file into an extracted ROM folder to perform the upgrade. PM me for help!
Good luck,
Dom

Is it possible to upgrade just the radio, without doing a a full rom upgrade.
By that i mean, doing a upgrade to the same Rom and extended rom but changing the radio file.
Can i simply just upgrade the radio only
Thanks
John
Yes, you can update just one ROM at a time. All you need to do is remove the other two ROMs from the upgrade directory and you will see that when you run the upgrade program that only the remaining rom is listed as an update.
This works as I have carried out the same procedure to update my radio to 1.06.02 but I cannot remember if the unit hard resets itself after the update. Just to be safe - do a full backup first!
Happy updating.
John,
Yes, this is possible as it states above.
All I did was back up my device, then replaced the radio file in the ROM upgrade and then run the upgrade! After installing and Hard Resetting, I just restored from backup!
Let me know if you do it and how it went.
Dom
applecom
Yes you can only upgrade the radio, be sure and back up the device as this will also need a hard reset and all you're custom programs/settings will be gone you can restore with the backup.
Backup and remove all .nbf files except for the radio_.nbf file and run baUpgrade.exe
This will upgrade the radio only, I did this last night and it works
I think the answer may be YES, YES and YES!
Try this as the saves some time on the download, its readio only.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/RadioROM/BA_FRA_BelDT_12202_558_10602_Ship/radio_.nbf
Is the radio rom 1.06.02 is the latest one?
Was when I put it there, like the folder reads, 1.06.02
Does 1.06.02 radio rom improve quality of BT and/or phone? What about the power consumption?
Headset Trouble
Does the Radio Update 1.06.02 fix all troubles with headsets like:
.) scratching noise when more than 2 meters away from device
.) headset lost connection to device often.
or is this not fixed ?
ore is there maybe another possibility to fix this.
link to nbf ?
As I read in this thread, a new radio version might solve my problem described below. But both links to radio_.nbf's in this thread are not working. Please post another one and would you please explain the process of upgrading! Thx a lot!
yesterday's Subject: HELP! Microphone shut-off/power-safe during calls
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just bought the Qtek 9090 about a week ago. Great machine, but calling is aweful. I have the same problem that I read about somewhere else on the net: during calls the microphone shuts off when I don't talk. When I start talking there is a short delay I guess, which makes the connection sound cracky or interrupted to the other person on the line. Is this a known issue to anyone here? Is this a software or hardware prob? Should I send it back? Will they be able to repair it, exchange it or do nothing at all? Please reply quickly. I need to know what to do in order to send it back in time! Thx a bunch!

Everything you need is on the ftp server byt you will have to search for the relevant directory. Here is a starter for ten -> http://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel
Then go to the radio rom dir .......

Thank you! Will the "Radio 1.06.02 Edited for German Tmobile MDAIII.rar" work for my Qtek 9090 (Germany e-plus) also?
T-Mobile Germany Updated there rom which seems only to be an EXTrom Upgrade 195 as CE 1.12.02 and Radio 1.06.00 remain the same.
It can be downloded here.
http://www.t-mobile.de/business/blackberry/software/1,7968,11445-_,00.html
Would be nice if somebody would then up it to ftp so that it gets added to wiki.
Hi,
you will find it here:

or here:

greetings
do you think you could find out what the specs are of that and upload it to ftp I will then move it and update wiki.
Thanks

Hi,

Protocol: 1337.42
ExtROM: 1.31.176 GER

and how works with the new radio ???
Uploaded and updated wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
I tried to install to my German T-Mobile MDA III. I got the error message that the language is incorrect. I'm wondering because this rom should also be a German one. What i'm also wondering the ba_update programm shows englisch messages. Doe's anybode has tried to use?
Greetings
I have the same problem - I get an language error when trying to upgrade. I read the manual on how to patch the language settings though, I think I am missing the password...
Anyone know how to figure that out?
TIA
Tafkaj
This rom could be a type II rom and thus give you a password error with the oold nbftool.
If this is the case re extract the exe file (as you tried to modify the roms with the tool).
Go to wiki in the 1.40 rom upgrade page, follow the type II instructions using this german rom.
The ma no id tool should bypass the langauge code and country code.
Use at own risk as with all flashing
Anyone can extract out the .cab file for the BlackBerry connect 2.0 for the XDA IIs or IIi for the latest 1.40.xxx ROM
Want to try it locally in Singapore to see if it works
Thanks a lot....
Any can help to extract the cab file? Thanks....
It's on the ftp, just uploaded it to /Uploads/BlueAngel!

Hi notepad, I supposed the cab even installed on ROM other than the official ROM (radio and ms) will not work. This is because RIM checks on the use of right version before it allows the connection to go through. This is the case even for XDAII (which will only work for 1.72)
I have upgraded entirely to their O2 UK version and BB is working perfectly fine for my XDAIIi now in Singapore.
Yah, I am using the Offical 1.40 from 02 Asia version with radio ROM 1.12, the device is able to generate my PIN, so it is more that sufficient to subscribe the service right.

Perhaps I was not clear enough in my previous mail. Blackberry Connect should only work with the version it is released together with and no just any official O2 release. This was the case for XDAII.
In this case for XDAIIs, the version should be v1.40.237. Well, in any case, it's worth a try. No harm done right? Good luck!
actually the 1.40.xxx at the back is the extended ROM function, the core ROM is 1.40. I believe that as long as you use 1.12 ROM it should be ok.
My Device Info are
ROM: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM Date: 03/10/05
Radio Version: 1.12.00
Protocol Version: 1.337.42
ExtROM Version: 1.40.923 WWE
What about yours?

would someone be kind enough to post the link to the blackberry cab file. Either I'm being stupid or I'm experiencing problems with my XDA Exec.
Thanks
The cab i put on the ftp was for XDA IIs and XDA IIi, I would be very surprised if it would work on Exec.
Log into the ftp with xda as both username and password and go to uploads/blueangel and you will find it there.

Got it working with an XDA IIs, connecting to a BlackBerry Internet Service in Singapore ( StarHub ).

I'm no techie but I'm interested to upgrade my XDAiis with blackberry capabilities. Can you teach me please? I tried accessing the FTP site but no can do. Appreciate any assistance.
Thanks.
BB Clients for WM5 are currently being tested by various providers such as O2. Only a matter of time now before they will come out. My hunch is around the end of 2005, early 2006
Which is the right cab?
Hi,
I've browsed around /BlueAngel and found two BBConnect cabs. The English version is 1.2 and doesn't generate a PIN. The other version is German 2.0 which does generate PIN.
Is this the version that we uploaded? As I don't understand German, can you please upload the Cab again?
Thanks so much.
I had problems with the installing of the BB service file when I upgraded my Radio ROM from 1.12.00 to 1.13.00, so i down graded again,
I could be wrong but...
I don't think anybody ever got this to work on anything other than the standard T-Mobile or O2 phones.
It's a lost cause -- I wasted countless hours on it, and I hope I save you from doing the same...
Thanks for the tip... Not too surprised as not many people claim to have got it working. Wanted to "repeat" Notepad's "success" since I'm also in Singapore.
Actually, I tried the German version last night. But SingTel's BB registration page rejected the PIN and IMEI I gave it.
