Hi , I am a complete novice,
just bought an xdaII phone and my previous phone was a nokia 3210 so this is a large step forward for me.

i have a few questions which may already be in the forum but i cant seem to find.

firstly this is my set up:

ROM version 1.72.00WWE
Rom Date 03/15/04
Radio version 1.17.00
Protocol version 1337.28ExtRom version 1.72.181

firstly can i upgrade this phone, and if so how?
and secondly i am having problems getting video files to work.
I have a video convertor called Easy Video to iPod MP4 PSP 3GP Converter
but none of what i convert seems to work.

can a mini mp4 player be installed also as the windows media 9 player will not play any of the files that i convert, including wmv files.(i have also tries mp4 and 3pg and avi...but none play)...i have also tried converting my video thru winavi....with no luck also

many thanks,
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i am a complete novice.
all of what i have just loked at looks like it was written by a neuclear scientist.
is there any advice on what i should do first for a begginer like myself please?

please forgive me for being so dumb but like i said my last phone was a nokia 3210 and what you have just directed me to is too advanced for my tiny brain to comprehend.

download the wm5 rom you want
the step by step instructions are inside the rar or zip file
or what ever it is
really easy if you just read and do as it tell you
