XDA2i - Softwareupdate - ERROR-MEssages - need new IMAGE !!!

[Two2Face]

Hi guys

First of all thanks for everybody who is just reading this ...

I bought a XDA2i from Ebay (Original O2 - UK) - unlocked it via IMEI-Check - everything works as good as possible - i'am happy with my device.

ROM Version: 1.10.00 WWE
Rom date: 12/24/04
Radio Version: 1.00.00
Protocol Version: 1337.39
Extended ROM: -- (nothing mentioned)
Bootloaderversion: 1.01

But the device is taesing me when i try to update the software. I really tried now everything human possible, i have no clue how i can do the upgrade.

The offizial softare ( picked from the O2 webpage) is goin very well, its th only one i can upgrade - the other Roms doesn't work. I got Error Messages concerning countrie, ROM doesn't fit to my device, connection, bla bla ..

With the patched himalaya setup file its possible to start the ERASING of the ROM - but in the RUU Logfile i can see that the process ist stopped after 3 trials, then i have to make a softreset..

Okay i studied now this forum and a german one POCKET PC Phone , since around 2 weeks - but i found no solution. I tried to change the ROMS Operator / Language by th eROM Editor, as well i tried the HEX Editor solution nothing - my device is laughing at me - and i really get crazy..

Before starting my trials i made a ROM Image on a SD ( everything works ver well ) also i read it from SD and saved it to my pc hardrive by using the programm NTRW.

So in my opinion there must be the opportunity to get from somebody a working IMAGE !!! File ( not ROM , no nbf or the files which are already on the FTP SErver) and write it with NTRW to the SD Card - bring the device in bootloader Modus an install the ROM ??

!!!
Does anybody has a working IMAGE-FILE !! for me ( XDA2i O2 WWE) an is able to save that on the FTP.

I really would appreciate your help, but for me it seems to be the last chance to get a newer software on the device.

thanks a lot in advance

Forgive me if I've got this wrong, but which ROM are you trying to apply to the XDA2i? I've got the same phone and there isn't any official updated ROM to put on it. There is a weird kinda one sitting on the FTP but I suspect it's not complete as there isn't a Windows installer...only what appears to be files to be run from the phone itself.

None of the other ROMs on this board will work on the 2i as they're for other phones.

Cheers

I wonder why there is no ExtROM in your Andes

[Two2Face]

Ext. Rom is not installed, why during the new software installation i made a soft reset just before the Ext. Rom was going to install itself on the device.

I had a close look in the forum, i studied it :D - and there were a lot of guys which wrote they have an XDA2i !! with ROM of TMOBILE or IMATE or whatever - not an original from O2..

And i'am looking for one of this guys, who has an XDA2i and a newer ROM - and this guy should provide me a IMAGE file to be able to write it on a SD card ant ugrade this f* PDA
