I have just heard from the Data Support team at O2 (I work in o2 Retail) that there will be an official ROM update released on 1st March which will solve the bluetooth problems and several other issues. Thought it would be of interest to a lot of you!

Fantastic - only thing annoying me right now is the constant drop out of my bluetooth headset whilst driving etc.....well, that and a strange lock up the other night ;)

I hope this will enable voice dial as well!!

As listed before my headsets I've brought in from China work great with the XDA II and XDAIIs, but it's always a little annoying to not have voice dial function.

The drop out on the XDAIIs I think you will find is something to do with the power save mode on the bluetooth radio. If you have power save on the radio is shut off and the headset disconnects, although the screen shows the bluetooth radio in operation.

Don't suppose you Source mentioned whether this will be the one to include WMP10 as well?

O2 Tech supp have confirmed to me that this will be in a future ROm update but wouldn't say when

Fingers crossed eh!

Stupidly didn't ask about WMP10... I'm at work again tomorrow so I will try to obtain a definitive list of the enhancements the new ROM will bring.

Does any one know if the new upgrade will fix the wifi stack? I have rarely been able to connect to wifi networks and looks like many people on this board have the same problems.

Thanks

I had some info from then a while ago, I got the impression that WMP10 would not be included until April time.

When this new rum comes out on Mar 1st, we should start a thread listing the bugs we find in it, and then ship it off to O2. There were rumours of some wifi fixes, but who knows. At the end of the day, 95% of it comes from HTC, so it will likely be much like the updates to the Imate, Qtek etc devices.
