I recently purchased a Himalaya XDAIIi that is currently locked to O2. I want to use it in the US on TMobile. Can someone help get me started in upgrading the radio, OS, and the ROM. I have been reading all the different threads on the forum, but not sure what if anything will work on the XDAIIi or where to even start.
I am really new to the XDA scene, and would greatly appreciate any suggestions so I can start using this apparently awesome device.
Current stats:
ROM version: 1.10.00 WWE
ROM date: 12/24/04
Radio version: 1.00.00
Protocol version: 1337.39
ExtROM version: 1.10.124 WWE
Will upgrading the ROM unlock the phone?
Thanks in advance for any help.

i think you mean unlocking and not upgrading/...
as far as unlocking go ..there are quite a few threads on this forum regarding that.. personally i used imei check .com..

as far as upgrading goes.. none exists as no upgrade rom has been released yet...
jump on the bandwagon.. were all waiting for it..

co-signing with Zohaer on imei-check. I found them to be excellent.

Thanks for the help. I guess I will get in line for waiting for upgrades. Unfortunately, since I am in the US, I'm not sure I will be able to take advantage of any released by O2. I guess I have to hope TMobile will pick up the XDAIIi at some point.

I will keep checking back if you come across any updates. I will give IMEI-check a look.

Have either of you upgraded to WM2005? Would that be a good idea? Sounds like its full of great features.
