WM6 for Tornado
ALPHA RELEASE!
The link is now BROKEN as I have had to take down the ALPHA version to make way for the test BETA that I've made available to a few people for preliminary testing.
Note: This is in no way a finished product, some stuff still might not work, but as far as Tornado ROM's go in terms of speed and reliability, it runs like sh!t off a shovel
But we take no responsibility for any catastrophies that might occur eg. you brick your phone, your dog dies, your girlfriend gets pregnant etc. etc.
This ROM was developed entirely in our free time between college and university, there's no need to pay us for that, but a donation would be nice. If you wish to do so, then please click HERE
To Do:
MMS
HTC Camera App
Remove remaining HTC debug apps
Changed:
Fixed WiFi problems
Fixed Audio problems
Fixed GPRS issues (IPL 2.00, SPL 2.00.0008 and Radio 4.1.13.28_02.61.01 included in the NBF to sort this out)
Custom splash screen
Voice Command in ROM
xT9 cab (must install BEFORE the lanugage pack)
xT9 Language pack with 14 different languages
HTC Task Manager cab
HTC Comm Manager cab (unfortunately, bluetooth settings don't work yet)
HTC Clear storage cab
SP5 and SP5m button fixes as cabs
I will embed these cabs at a later date, however atm, I don't have time so I've just dumped the i-mate SP5 ROM and cab'd up a few apps you all wanted.

Flashing instructions are as follows:
NOTE: This will work on vista providing you have followed the Vista RUU guide HERE or HERE
For those getting the "Not Allow Operation" error in TeraTermPro, or, even worse, getting stuck in bootloader after flashing. You MUST superCID your device using the SPV-Sevices client! This step is NOT optional and could result in your phone becoming a brick if anything goes wrong
1. Make sure you device is SuperCID, you can check using the SPV Services client, if on reading the CID it displays 3131313131313131 in a long string of numbers then it IS CID unlocked, if not, the click the CID = 11111111 button and reset your device
2. Download the ROM linked in the first post
3. Download the attached TeraTermPro.zip
4. Disable USB connections in ActiveSync (right click the icon in the systray, then select connection settings and untick the USB connections box), turn off your device, hold camera ad plug the device into the USB port to enter bootloader mode.
5. Extract TeraTermPro.zip and run ttermpro.exe, then select Serial and then USB in the drop down box. Then type:
Code:
info 2
You will then probably get the following output:
Code:
info 2
GetDeviceInfo=0x00000002
+ SD Controller init
- SD Controller init
+StorageInit
CMD55 failed
+ SD Controller init
- SD Controller init
+StorageInit
CMD55 failed
HTCSSuperCID ' HTCE
Cmd>
If you don't see HTCSSuperCID ' HTCE above the Cmd> prompt then your device isn't SuperCID. You must use the SPV Services Client to make your device SuperCID as instructed in step 1
6. Type
Code:
format BINFS
This will then output:
Code:
Cmd>format BINFS
Format BinFS partition.
Format is completed!!
Cmd>
7. Now type:
Code:
ResetDevice
You device will then reboot, display the splash screen for around 2 seconds before running into the bootloader again. This is normal.
8. Extract WM6TornadoALPHA.zip then run ROMUpdateUtility.exe in the RUU folder.
9. Wait while it flashes your device
10. Install the extras you want in the 'extra stuff' folder, I recommend you install comm manager, task manager and xT9 as these solve most of the WiFi and T9 icon issues people are expericencing
11. Done

Unlock your phone first, then use SPV-Services to change the cid.
See SDA Application Unlock and SPV-Services in the attachments.
was just testing out to see if i can connect via teratermpro.
and it seems i cant. ? :s

fixed the issue seems that tertermpro tools doesnt seem to connect or work for me.
so i used mytt 142.exe application
Turn off the phone and disconnect USB
Press Camera button and holding it insert USB connector (or holding Camera button press Power button for 1-2 seconds).
When "Need an UI (0)?" appears on the screen press [0] immediately. You will see tricolor screen, in the blue zone there will be "Typhoon IU" message, if you see "Typhoon XIP" you were late to press [0], start from beginning.
Run mtty1.42.exe from archive, choose [USB], press Enter and you will see a prompt.
Will this method work if I don't want to SuperCID as my warranty is not over yet?
"Here is how I got the rom to install without the devauth error.
1) use a hex editor on the rom file and search for the devauth.exe string e.g. 44 00 65 00 76 00 41 00
2) between the "devauth" and the "exe" you will see the hex "00 2e".
3) swap these bytes around so they are "2e 00" instead of "00 2e".
4) This will keep te same checksum but will not allow the devauth.exe to run. well it work in my case at least"
Hope it works

The Rom Will Be Posted In The First Page When It Is Ready, Now They Are Just Packing The Rom, So Please Be Patient
i heard that super cid doesn't work with internet explorer 7, is that true?I set cid=111111111 and when i enter in spv_services again it shows me the old cid
Dear all,
I have an old windows mobile 5 Qtek 9000 and now I decide to upgrade with one of the latest WM 6.1 rom. The point is that I have no usb cable with me. Which is the easiest way to flash a new rom on my Qtek 9000? Can you link me a simple guide?
Thanks.
Luke
flasher...
As far as I am aware flashing from the SD isn't an option. The cable from any device with the same shape interface e.g. PSP, digital camera, etc. should work.
It is an easy process as long as you stick to the basics like glue:
- identify the type of handheld you have (G3/G4, 64MB/128MB) and select compatible ROMs + have the OEM ROM available in case a reflash is needed.
- remove the SD
- sync with PC or backup personal information.
- clear the handheld memory (hold down the two menu keys while pressing reset, then 0)
- enter bootloader mode (backlight+power+reset) then connect. PDA screen should change from serial to USB.
- disable PC firewall
- be patient.
My phone is only three color mode, if i switch on. I try different rom upgrade but nothing. What i can do?
A little more information is needed:
What does the 3 color screen tell?
What happens if you execute a ROM update?
How do you try to make the ROM update, shipped ROM (which) or a cooked ROM (which)?
Has the device ever worked?
Which ROM was on the device before it got stuck in bootloader (3 color screen)?
Tri-color screen meant by bootloaderit (red, green, blue). When I try to update the ROM, it shows that it would be done, but the re-launch the bootloader all the time. Try a different ROM, which is designed for the HTC Qtek 8310 and the Tornado. WM6, WM61 and WM65. WM5 device worked before, more detailed version i dont know. letter on the screen IPL: 2.00 SPL: 2.00.0009
It seems that the loaded ROM does not succeed to load. If you load a shipped ROM everything outlined below should be done automatically for you, so if that does not work as well, then the device may be broken. So check first if you can load a shipped ROM again.
For cooked ROMs you need to prepare the BINFS to match the size of a ROM before you load it. As you succeed in loading any ROM, the device seems to be CID unlocked already. Check the following:
Connect the device in bootloader mode. Switch off, then keep camera button pressed and insert USB cable.
Disable USB for Active Sync (Connection settings of AS).
startup a terminal program that can connect via USB (e.g. TTerm pro)
connect ot the USB port
press enter
Command prompt appears
enter "info 2" (no quotes) enter
read the last line, it should give something like "HTC SuperCID". If not, then you must CID unlock the device first. Lookup the relevant threads for the cooked ROMs or search for Lokiwiz.
If the device is already SuperCID, then you must match the BINFS formatted size to be larger or equal the ROM size (OS partition). For most cooked ROMs it is the binary file size. Relevant actions are also described in some cooked ROM threads, e.g. mine - see my signature.
What is shipped ROM? Original Rom? I do not have it.

CID unlocking mobile... DO NOT DISCONNECT UNTIL THE PHONE REBOOTS!
What i try next?
IF your OS is not up, then the lokiwiz will not do anything to your device!
With THIS status you should not succeed in doing any update or format your BINFS. You first need to get the original OS up and running again before you van get any further on changing your OS. The steps to take are:
Get old OS running up again
Application unlock the old OS
CID unlock the device (backup your *.bin files!)
load new OS
1.) is your problem currently. There are several ways to achieve this, try a hard-reset first, this should work for your device:
switch off device
press L+R softkey and hold both
switch on device and keep L+R softkey pressed
wait until prompt and act accordingly
device will reboot to OS
OK now?
I do not have the original OS or even the old OS. After a hard reset as well as the OS does not come up.
# Switch off the Device
# Softkey Press L + R and hold Both
# Switch the device and keep L + R softkey presses
Press 0 to restore factory default. Other key to exit
I press 0
After hard reset load the bootloader again.
OK, then you need to load the CID matching old OS via the shipped ROM standard procedure. Look to: http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Tornado/ and get 8310_2090_253121_020900_to_dan_eur_ship.exe
Execute it on the PC while the device is connected in bootloader mode. If that does not work, then try other ROMs in the same directory until you succeed with the loading.
Mind that a first boot takes 3-5 minutes, so be patient if the bootloader is not coming up any longer. Also do not interrupt the ROM loading in the first steps when the upload has started. It is normal that there are phases where the progress bar does not move. I think the sequence is per partition (IPL, SPL, Splash, OS): load to RAM (bar progressing), load from RAM to ROM = flashing (no bar progress, but color change of bar at the end). The large OS partition is loaded at the end of the sequence so the second step will take some time - be patient.
Good luck!
I try all ROM's but always give me ERROR 294 INVALID VENDOR ID.
And now the phone does not start anymore. No picture. I dont know what happend
This seems to prove that the device has something broken.
Make sure that the battery gets charged while the device is off. Despite the device was connected to USB all the time there is no charging happening in bootloader mode. Wait until the green light is there again before you continue - power drain in bootloader mode is quite heavy.
When none of the shipped ROMs work for upload, it really gets hard to load back an OS running on that for further steps :-(
There is a procedure called "Gold Card method", the rough procedure is (only did that once years back - so this is no step-by-step guide):
Prepare the card so that the bootsector contains the magic device specific "Gold Card" signature. For that you need a trial version of PSAS, and a working windows mobile device(!).
then you would have to load the *.nbh file that gets uploaded to the device (and fails) to that mini-SD card root directory,
rename it to TORNIMG.NBH there
load the card to the device,
then reboot to bootloader (Camera + on)
and hope it gets it loaded
A detailed procedure is described for the Excalibur device but this works equally well for Tornado if you adjust the relevant parts (PSAS is the success of QMAT). Mind that the miniSD card should be in really good condition (fresh full format, check that the file loaded can be read byte-identical from it). If the loading from the card fails or corrupts the IPL/SPL while loading then your device is really bricked. It happened to me with an Excalibur (read the whole thread linked above) - so be extra careful (though - what do have to loose?)!
