O2 XDA II Mini - Radio Stack Corrupted!

[_kit_]

Hi,

I'm just wondering if anyone can help me with this problem:

I tried to update the ROM on my O2 XDA II Mini (purchased in Australia). I downloaded the Mini ROM (May2005) from the SeeO2.com website.
When I was flashing the ROM, the process failed on Stage 1 (the Radio upgrade). It asked me to reset the phone and run it again. I ran the ROM upgrade again and it succeeded.

Upon reset of the Mini, On the Splash screen, it displayed "NO GSM". The PDA worked OK, its just that the phone function didn't.

I tried re-flashing the ROM, but encountered the Wrong Country ID error.

After researching on here, I extracted out the executable files from ROM upgrade .exe file and then downloaded the MAUpdate.exe (or something like that) from here, I started the Mini into the Bootloader mode and ran the upgrade executable. On the screen it showed the current radio version as blank.

When proceeding to flash the radio, it would hang on 0% and eventually fail.

Can anyone help?? I just want to get it working, even at the factory ROM level so I don't need to send it away for repair

Thanks for your input!

I encountered a similar porblem with radio and eventually got it to upgrade the WWE 1.12.10 ROM on the FTP. Good luck

Hi robi,

what is the link to the FTP?
When I click on your link it just goes to: http://ftp./ which fails.

I've now got another problem.

I can't turn the XDA on at all.
When I connect it to my computer via USB, the LED comes on RED.

I can't turn it on using any of the buttons, even the soft reset, hard reset or bootloader key combinations.

LED RED means battery not exist or dead
Try to take off battery, and put it back again.

Yeah, thanks. After leaving it connected via usb for a few minutes, the LED went from Red to Orange, and I could turn it on again. :oops:

In my testing to get the Radio Stack reloaded, I took out the Radio NBF file and the other two stages of the ROM upgrade process completed successfully. When run in isolation, the Radio upgrade process still fails..

anyone has any idea about this?

yeah im having the same problem
all of a sudden my o2 XDAII mini started loading with "no GSM"
and i check my device information and there is no radio version

so when i try and update, well i guess there is nothing to update. so there is an error.

i was wondering if there was a way to install the radio fresh

Voltron,
I've tried different methods to try and upgrade or even reload the Radio Stack. I believe its a corruption as when I isolated the different ROMs and ran them separately, it upgraded successfully. it would show that the other components (CE and something else) were blank but that didn't stop the utility upgrading it.

I've just sent my phone off to MPS in QLD to have the ROM refreshed.
www.mpsqld.com, they are the only authorised O2 repairer in AU.

awwww
im reluctant to do so
because my phone is like two weeks out of warranty or something
so if there are other methods id prefer to do try them first
