hi,

i have just downloaded the radio stack from O2 v4.21. I have tried to upgrade through active sync 3.71 it upgraded ok, but when i went to restart the XDA it gets stuck on the boot screen. the one that says test not for resale... and at the bottom right hand corner its says A.30.07 and then locks up.

normally before i tried to upgrade it said A.30.07 the underneath it said 4.20...

anybody know what i need to do to correct it?? i have looked through loads of forum posts and now i'am really confused???

Thanks alot

Hi,
No experts or semi-experts seem to be offering any help. I consider myself a fairly experienced novice so I am not sure how useful (or safe) my advice is. Take care! But here are my observations..........

You say the upgrade went OK? Does this mean you got as far as the message Flash Complete! Press OK to restart your device?

If so, this is encouraging as most of the problems I've located on this forum stopped part way through the upgrade (many at 1%).

Did you follow the instructions accompanying the upgrade to the letter? (ie. kill all running programs, switch off phone etc.)

The 4.21 upgrade is for the PW10A1 model not the PW10B1 (check the back of your xda's case to find out). Not sure how you deal with this one if yours is a PW10B1.

Can you enter bootloader mode? (soft reset with the stylus while holding the power button). If so, this is also good news. Someone with more experience than me could probably tell you what to do next. (Possibly flash a new ROM using the SD card method. Although you upgraded the Radio Stack it may have corrupted or upset your Radio Unit/'ROM'. If you decide to do this, I suggest something based on the v3.17 such as the XDA developers special edition ROM ..... you can always upgrade to WM2003 again later.).

Good Luck!

cranny,

Thanks alot for the reply m8, I did try what you have suggested by reloading the 3.17 o2 rom via sd card and now it won't even switch on anymore.

not to worry its gone off to the xda repaire center in Norwich today for repair under warranty.

Thanks for the reply anyway m8:)
