Guys i did a very stupid thing this evening. I flashed my Imate Jam using the MAupgrade_No ID and the Greek Qtek firmware.
The flashing was good but now my Jam cant go pass the first screen and continuously reboots. It says something about illegal rom used....and reboots
Any solution to bring back to the former situation?
Please respond...i am really desperate
OK i figured out how. On my panic i couldn't even think.
God Bless the "search" button!!
But how could i get past this problem with the greek version qtek rom? It is locked and although it lets me upgrade (using the No-ID) on the first reboot after flashing it rebbots all the time.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Yep proteus3000uk,
Get yourself a shipped rom from your own provider. Put your magician into bootloader (camera & power & softreset until it reads serial or usb, there will be no backlight) uncheck usb in the connection settings from activesync on your PC & connect usb. Now it will read usb. Start the shipped rom program.
Or download a dumped or Big Storage rom & follow sd-card
flash method including the copy of your id from (first 420 bytes or so from your own romdump).
Or send it back and pray/beg for warrenty.
First two options are preferred off course. I 'repaired' mine with the first option, while I only had a black screen. So no OS or whatever on the rom.
Goodluck, M
Well i think that the Greek Qtek ROM is the only ROM worldwide that is edited from its programmers to run a phone version check, even after it lets you install it on your phone.
If it finds a phone version other than Qtek (in my case Imate Jam) the phone cant get past the initial splash screen and keeps rebooting for ever!
Then put it into bootloader and flash it wit an i-mate rom. Dumped, shipped or BIG storage and get rid of this Qtek ... rom.
Have you tried anything else than this qtek rom and what were the results?

The original english tom (WWE) works just fine (as it should anyway). The thing is i was trying to install the qtek GREEK rom in order to have proper Greek on my phone.
Unfortunately the suckers have locked the greek qtek rom and they have compiled the actual lock into the rom itself.
Although the rom is installed just fine using the No_Id prog, at the first reboot the phone hungs and then reboots for ever!
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I belief you can actually revert your magician back to the WWE rom and now you want help for unlocking of the Greek qtek rom.
This doesn't sound VERY URGENT to me, cause you can use your device only not in proper Greek, OK?
Can't help you with the unlocking though, maybe Buzz, Anansky or one of the other bright developers can.

Hi guys.
I did it... i screwed up my QTek S100! I tried to upgrade it, maybe the wrong files, dunno... now it is *dead* ! I only get a dark screen with "SERIAL V1.00" or "USB V1.00" if docked (should be bootloader mode). Nothing else.
Would you please be so kind as to help me in recovering from the disaster ? I do not have any backup, nor ROMs. I own a 512 MMC.
I would need English Roms... pleeeese !!
Thanks a lot.

Do you still have the files you used to upgrade? What's the name of the file?
Also, leave the info on your previous ROM.
I had the same problem with my Qtek S100 when upgrading it with the new firmware. The upgrade process stopped/crashed the first time leaving my unit in the same state you're describing. But, what I did was simply to run the upgrade utility again and then it worked fine the second time.
I don't know where you're from but if you have a swedish unit like me you can get the latest upgrade utlity from this adress:
http://www.smartmobile.se/upgrade/upgrade.aspx
Here is my previous (and gone) configuration. It's hard to believe I can't re-flash it again. English ROM is my best wish...
I wish you could help me...
Oh! I have tried all "QTEK ROM WORKS" recent methods. I always get that Country Code Error and I do not saved the previous GetDeviceData output.

Looks like the same happened to me. Try to open battery cover (or remove battery for several second. Then put everything back and push Power button. Does it turns on (with hard reset)?
Nope buddy! The OS is gone! Whatever I try to do, it always starts in Bootloader mode (Serial V1.00/USB V1.00).
Try removing the battery for 30 minutes (or whatever time it takes for the backup battery to discharge). That should recover your previous configuration although I haven't tested it.
Thanks for your reply, macrinus, but, exactly, how do you believe the 'vanishing' OS is supposed to reapper ?
We must be talking about spiritism in here...

Backup ROM
Is there a way to make a backup of my rom?
I have the qtek s100 with english rom.
Purchased seperate.
rom 1.03.00 WWE
radio 1.05.00 (upgraded)
extrom 1.03.100 WWE
Had the same issue with my radio version upgrade.
Scared the hell out of me ...
Backlight did not lit up ...
And an error apeared on my pc ...
But I was able to upload it when I tried again and the sync program of ms was killed.
If anyone knows how to make a working back-up ...
I like to help.
Think it's interesting to see how everything works.
And ofcourse, if you worked it out already, let me know how ...
And what macrinus said wont work.
When you do a hard reset, you do exactly the same.
So I think it's all gone.
why not dump the os to sd card, ntrw to pc and then put the nb1 fille in the ftp........
Tell me how ...
Tell me how, and I will ...
Sounds like chinese to me buddy.
Just got this pocket pc for 3 days.
First time I use a ppc.
Is that with xbackup?
Then choose all data?
Or do you mean another way?
What is ntrw?
And how do I get it from the backup?
And also, how is he suposed to upload it to his ppc?
Am asking this all to get to know it for myself.
Need the basic information before I can actually do all this ...
ok, sorry, if you are new to this forum, maybe its time now to browse this forum using the "Search" . There are hundreds or maybe thousands really good topics / advices available in this forum, posted by experts.
I and hundreds others I think, have really learn a lot from this forum.
On this specific topic you can search for :
- dump rom
- bootloader / bootloading.
You can also go to this forums ftp : ftp://xda:[email protected]/
to download all the necessary files
pls be patient and enjoy the tour......
I installed the latest LSVW ROM a few weeks ago and I was very happy with it.
Today I got a crash of my S200 (run out of memory). My S200 gets stuck in a totally white screen after the QTEK logo has been disappeared during a soft reset. So I have to do a hard reset. However, after the hard reset my S200 get stuck in the red-green-blue colored screen (bootloader) and will not go any further.
Can somebody help me bring my S200 back to life?
I read some articles about flashing from the bootloader, but all the ROM updates cannot find my S200. They really need a ActiveSync connection and I am not able to make one....
Can somebody please help me?
ehm, when you can get into bootloader you should be able to plugin your device and do an update via usb.
However, you should do this from an official rom. Not a rom based on PDA mobiz or something, that needs a guest activesync connection afaik.
To quote myself (for instructions):
erm... well you could try the 2.20 qtek rom which seems to be working well for quite some people (found here).
Although you have to make sure you read that thread good and use the ROMUpdateUtility_NoID.exe (found on ftp) to upgrade (or you download RUU-Prophet-G4-AKU2.2-2.20-2.47.21-Jester-r1.exe and take the ROMUpdateUtility_NoID.exe from that using WinRAR, but it's wasting bandwidth a bit ).
Update instructions:
1: With the qtek 2.20 rom you need to extract the zip and the exe file in the zip with WinRAR.
2: Then there is one folder called 'OutputFile' and a folder called 'RUU_TOOLS'.
Inside the RUU_TOOLS there are some other folder (prophet -> WWE), when you go through them and in the WWE folder you see a bunch of files (readme.doc, enterbootloader.exe etc etc).
You need to copy ROMUpdateUtility_NoID.exe to the WWE folder with all the files. And you also need to copy the 'nk.nbf' file to the WWE folder (from the 'OutputFile' folder).
3: And then you need to put your phone in bootloader mode and run ROMUpdateUtility_NoID.exe to upgrade, which should work nicely then.

Hope this might help you out.
Very weird btw the device just crashed itself and now you are stuck in bootloader! Doesn't sound too good
Did you heavily overclocked it or something?
RaptorRVL tahnk you very much for your support, but it dis not solve my problem.
I tried it several times. I had a lot of 260 errors and at last I got a 320 error. So it seems that there is something terribly wrong with my device. I think I have to return it to QTEK.
I did not overclock my PDA, so that could not be the cause of this. I was just driving home using TomTom Navigator and the error message 'Out of memory' (error message from WM5 not form TTN) appeared on the screen with an OK option. I pressed the OK button (only thing I could do), the S200 soft resetted itself and got stuck in the totally white screen after the QTEK screen with the version numbers.
Sounds like faulty hardware indeed, perhaps bad memory or a bad motherboard. All the stuff is intergrated anyway, so they just throw the old internals away and get some new stuff in there for you.
Hope they fix it fast!
Sorry guys, first post and wining for help already.
I just have upgraded the ROM of my Qtek S200 to the Smart1 clean wm6 ROM. During the flashing of my ROM the PDA gave me an error. I did nothing, let it do its thing. After half an hour I resetted my PDA, resulting in the boot screen and after that a white screen and a 'sound'. So far so 'good', but I can't hard reset my PDA because my Send button (green telephone button?) isn't working (second hand PDA and the previous owner wasn't very careful with it). Now my PDA is useless, it only gives me the 'sound' and then it's over. Is there any way to get my PDA working again? I don't care if I have to downgrade it back to a wm5 ROM.
Your help will be very appreciated, thanks in advance!

Hi,
Downgrade to WM5 and reflash it!
Yeah, next problem. I only have a wm5 ROM AKU 3.3 from Aserg, but I don't have a ROM prior to 2.2. Can I download such ROM somewhere now the ROMs are taken off the ftp server?
Thanks

Hi people! First I want to thank all of you that make a great job on helping and cooking all of these apS for our prophets.
I've looked in the others post for my problem and tried out all of methods explained but nothing helped me.
My problem consist on the boot of my S200. After i made an upgrade to WM6 it stays blocked on the first boot ( QTEK Image ) and stays there until battery goes down. I tried tu upgrade others ROM's by tho BOOTLOADER way but it doesnt work. So I'm completly bypassed by this problem.
If anyone have a solution please post it.
Regards
which roms? ipl spl versions,device model?
Qtek S200 (alias Orange SPV m600)
ipl 2.10.0001
spl 2.20.0001
I first upgrade to WM6 cooked by GULUM, i found it here.
When i wanted to upgrade another version but it doesnt function, until i found Crystal v4.
And now my machine wan't boot, it stays on Qtek screen.
I have the same problem...
Fict it, just installed an older ROM and my htc works again. Gonna try to install a newer ROM now.

Enter bootloader mode and reflash :
- switch off your phone, hold the camera button and connect the usb cable. If USPL was flashed you should have no problem flashing another ROM
Bye

I See the RED - GREEN - BLUE Screen..
Look at the Wiki article on SD-Card flashing, that should be the easiest way to flash the ROM again!
Flash ROM/Radio from SD-Card
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=vox_sdcardflashing
1) Once you have all the files you need, either from the kitchen or from prepackaged ROMs (they can be extracted with WinRAR),
What Files do they mean? + where do i get these files?
=(
That just means that you have to have the ROM, either from the forum or self made through the kitchen! In your ROM there is a *.nbh file. Just follow the steps from there. The nbh is the only file you will need!

I have tried the SD Card Flashing, by following the instructions on the wiki. The bootloader will scan my SD card but comes up with and Invalid Certificate error and won't start the upgrade.
What now?
