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.

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

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.

It looks like O2 Netherlands has removed the update from it's server.

Anybody knows where to get it?

Yes sure you can write to me. Keep in mind though that i am not part of xda-developers, they are the real experts.
Yes, those are both the correct software versions.

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
