hi... im a qtek9100 user here and flashed to Faria Crossbow rom almost 1 yr ago. Recently i plan to flash to Diamond 3.1 Touch rom....And im facing some problem here.
_________________________________________________________________
This is the step for flash new rom. thx to vippie
0. First determine if you got a G3 or a G4 device. When you turn on your device from can can see you're IPL and SPL version on the screen. If you got IPL/SPL 1.xx or 2.xx you've got a G3 device. If the IPL/SPL shows 2.xx.xxx1 you've got a G4. Go to step G3.1 if you got a G3 and G4.1 if G4.
G3.1 Does you're device start normally (yes) or is it stuck on the three-colored bootloader screen (no)? YES... go to step G3.5, NO go to step G3.2
G3.2 Turn off you're device totaly. Remove the SD card and disconnect the USB cable from you're device. Turn on the device while holding the camera button. You will get into bootloader mode (3 colored screen). Connect the USB cable to the computer and you will see USB at the bottom of your screen above the left softkey (Activesync will not connect in bootloader mode, but you can flash from this screen!). If you got IPL/SPL 1.xx go to G3.3. If you got 2.xx go to G3.4
G3.3 Download button rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G3.5.
G3.4 Download wizard_love rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G3.5.
G3.5 Is your device CID-unlocked (note: it's not the same as SIM-unlocked!)? YES... go to step G3.7, NO OR DON'T KNOW go to step G3.6.
G3.6 Follow this great thread by Dr Puttingham: The Definitive Guide to Unlocking & Rom Upgrading G3 Wizards. Don't skip step 17! Flash the T-Mobile 2.26 Rom! Go to step G3.8 if you got the T-Mobile rom with IPL/SPL 2.26 on your device after doing this.
NOTE: Some people seem to have problem with flashing the button rom in this step (stops at 98% with error 302). Replace button_rom with Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102 and follow the rest of the steps normally when this happens!
G3.7 Download T-Mobile 2.26 rom and flash it to your device! Done? Go to step G3.8.
G3.8 You're reade to flash the AKU2, AKU3, WM6 rom of you're choise! It wasn't that hard, was it? If you still got an older OS version after flashing then you're not CID-unlocked! Go back to start!
_________________________________________________________________
My rom info:
ROM version: 2.18.0.0 WWE
ROM date: 2/14/06
Radio version: 02.25.11
Protocol version: 4.1.13.12
ExtROM version: Fario V5.0
I need some answer for some problem.
1) Since my device already CID-unlocked before, is that i need to redo again or i can jump to G3.7 step??
2) Is that i need to download T-mobile 2.26 rom and flash it to my device? i hv done this when i flash to Faria CrossBow rom lastime. Is that i need to redo again or i can jump to G3.8 step??
3) If i dont have problem for the question 1 and 2, is that i can flash to Diamond 3.1 rom now? or i need other step to do it
Hope some pro can give me a help. thx
Flash to Tmobile 2.26, then Blackdiamond. It appears you are already unlocked. BTW BlackDiamond ROM is great!

Hi,
I tried to upgrade my Qtek S200 with the newest ROM release from PdaMobiz (the 16M pooling page one), but encountered some problems...
It's a Portuguese TMN Qtek (or at least it displays the operator logo when started), although the software is in English.
IPL is 2.09 and SPL is 2.15...
However, after upgrading it, it kept displaying the Operator logo with IPL and SPL, and freezed, so it never worked. When I tried to revert it, I wasn't able to do it, because every time I try to install a different ROM (all of them for the G3 device) it just installs the new ROM, and then goes to that screen and freezes...
It never gave me any error during the upgrading/downgrading, because when it checks the version of the ROM, it displays no information, so it just says that is going to replace the inexistant version with the new one...
Is there a step a missed (I didn't put it in bootloader mode before doing the first upgrade, but I had already done that before with other ROMs and it worked fine...)?
Now I'm stuck without knowing if I should have done an unlock CID before upgrading it, or if there is another steped I missed... Please help me out...
Thanks in advance,
Nuno
Tried this?
Read this in one of the threads and it solved his problem:
Extract the rom file you are using to flash your phone, to a folder on your pc, than Extract the file i attached ("ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip") into this folder. than connect your phone to pc and double click on "ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.exe".
I personally have not tried it, but I downloaded the prog just in case, Hope it helps.
Now it gives me an error...
Hi,
Just tried what you advised, but now it jusk keeps giving me the error 208, which is supposed to happen because I have other programs open on my computer... Tried rebooting, closing most aplications with task manager, and still it doesn't work.
Also tried to downgrade to lower ROM upgrade, but it gives me the error that I can't downgrade, only upgrade...
When I upgrade it with AKU 2.3, it goes all the way through the upgrade, and then when it reboots, it just keeps giving me the operator logo screen with the version info on the display.
If I try to reboot to bootloader mode, I'm not able, the only way to do it is by removing the battery...
I'm probably still doing something I shouldn't... It should be able to work the downgrade utility...
Anyone can help?
Thanks,
Nuno
Try this rom:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.zip
It shoud be ok.
If your prophet has spl end up with 2.xx.0001 check at
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/
find out the rom which can solve for SPL 2.xx.0001.
Good luck
Thanks Chan! Problem solved!
I was starting to review all my steps ir order to see what I could have done wrong...
Would you advise me to upgrade now to the PDAMobiz latest ROM (the one with the biggest pooling page)?
Thanks again.
Nuno
1. Unlock cid
Since your prophet spl is 2.15, you have to follow this step.
http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=437
From file you can get from ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/
Your PC has to connect to network or internet (to have ip address), becuase in that script use ping command for delay 4 seconds.
It's just downgrade and unlock cid.
You may verify if cid unlocked, by backup rom to sd card. (use romupdate.exe with r2sd all command, check at wiki)
2. Upgrade to official rom
ftp://xda:[email protected]_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.zip
3. Upgade to pdamobiz, I suggest you to upgrade 12 Mb pagepool version. (even 8 mb version is ok). Because 16 mb has smallest ram space.
Good luck
All solved!
Again,
Thank you very much for your help!
After some tries, upgrading, downgrading, upgrading again, etc, I finally got it, so now its running the PDAMobiz version, which by the way, seems great so far!
Next time I'll come to you directly and then try to make things on my own...
Thanks again!

Hello, i've read a lot..but a cannot find a clear way to go back to my original ROM (i need to repair my baby jamin but i need my original italian rom).
I've go a G3, and i've installed the ASERG rom releases. (so i've just used NVID)
Now I've try to downgrade to the original IMATE Italian rom but there's no way.
during ROm upgrade after 1% (white screen on the jamin):
"
ERROR[326]: INVALID COMMAND
THIS NBF file cannot be used fot your PDA pHONE PLease check you NBF file"
Any Idea?
I've see http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_CID_Unlock ...and i've got PDAMobiz.com_ProphetAKU2_unlockCID.rar ...but I cannot understand why i've upgrade without any problems using NVID from 2.13 to 2.20 but i cannot go back...and i want to be sure that using PDAMobiz.com_ProphetAKU2_unlockCID.rar i'll solve my issue

Once you've had an AKU2.2 or higher on your device, you won't be able to go back to your original (AKU2.1*) ROM, unless you CID-unlock your device. You have a G3, so you're lucky you can!
But to save yourself all the trouble, I recommend you just use a stable AKU2.2/2.3 ROM.
grtz
EDIT: The RUU (ROM Update Utility) of your original ROM checks CID (security) on installation.
Because you already used AKU2.2 or higher it will fail CID-check and stop it's setup.

You can use this way I did it many times
To return to JAMin original rom :
1- Extract your JAMin original rom ( JAMin_Arabic_213923_2139126_022021_ship )or ( JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship )
on your Disk top you will get two folders ( OutputFile & RUU_TOOLS ).
2- Move (nk.nbf) from ( OutputFile ) to ( RUU_TOOLS \ Prophet \ WWE ) folder.
3- Now you have the all needed files on one folder (EnterBootloader&README & ROMUpdateUtility & RUUGetInfo & RUUResource.dll)
4- You need Prophet_G4_RadioRom ( Prophet_G4_RadioRom_v2.47.21) or ( Prophet_G3_G4_RadioRom_v2.61.21 ).
4- Chang the (ROMUpdateUtility) with ( ROMUpdateUtility_No_VenderID ).
5- put your JAMin on bootloader screen the ( coloured screen ).
6- Run the ( ROMUpdateUtility_No_VenderID ) it will start update the rom. It will hang on 95%.
7- Rest it to get the bootloader screen ( coloured screen ).
8- Run the Prophet_G4_RadioRom ( Prophet_G4_RadioRom_v2.47.21) or ( Prophet_G3_G4_RadioRom_v2.61.21 ) it will up date the rome you will get 100% . Your JAMin will work again and you will get it back with i-mate rom but the SPL will not ccange it will still as it is ( SPL 2.2xxxxx001).
9- Any time you can return to te original rom you must follow this way untel some one can unlockcid or there is anew update from i-mate.
I try this way three times tody and it is working very good.

Hello , I am owner of imate kjam unlocked phone.
My IPL / SPL ver is 2.16.
MY GSM ver is 02.07.10.
My OS ver is2.16.9.1.
I cooked the Crossbow_Reloaded_1.7_Final using core pro.
It completed 100% ok but when i restart my phone the OS its the same.
What i am doing wrong ?
I followed all the instructions step by step without having any problem.The only error i get its when the phone starts up after the upgrade when its installed the programs i get the error \windows\autoconfig.exe does not exist.
Please help me.
Thanks
i had the same problem any ideas?
Your Phone is CIDunlocked. You need to be CIDunlocked b4 you can upload the Rom Properly
Ok after doing all that was told to do to flash a G4 (which I did sucessfully) It does now show the SPL to be 2.21.olip.
At the end of the instructions says:
"After it is complete, your device will automatically reboot. The IPL version will be 2.21.0001 and the SPL will be 2.21.olip. If you see this then HardSPL was successfully flashed to your device.
Now you have HardSPL. You can flash any ROM using the RUU provided in the ROM package, should you have trouble with upgrading, try Mun's RUU."
I flashed my G4 Wizard with the new Diamond "clean" version. I think I want more bells and whisles; Question is...Do I have to do everything all over again or can I just flash with a new rom to a better OS?
I did try to flash to the Hyperdragon 6.1 and the SNN Diamond but, I think the OS I just flashed is too new to reflash to the others (error 264). (maybe I just answered my own question) But the HardSPL IS in there.
Someone please tell me what you think.
Thanks you!
Kim
Depending on my own experience you don't need to do hard SPL all over again. all you need to do is to do a good hard reset and try to update with nice and slow steps
i had a G4 before my current G3 and i know wht i'm telling you
just care to review these steps
- 50% battery or more (100% recommended)
this is a must .. cant flash without this condition
- laptop or pc with ups (you dont want to brick ur device cause electricity was out!) or you can risk and update on power supply
- use faria RUUs (they are the best) they can be used with any rom.
- connect the wizard to the pc after the hard reset (dont forget to backup) and follow the on screen (wizard not pc) till u get working windows mobile device
- when asked for setting ur device .. click escape (as said ... this device is guest till it has the WM that i want!)
- finally try it's right rom it's G4 safe if you ask, you'll find its link in my signature, also i suggest using radio 2.19
- last hint .. never use a rom with IPL or SPL. they will brick ur device (it did to mine )
any more help?

how to do
Safe proof plan do it like this.
1. First get the original Rom back and install it you can find the link on the forum.
2. Make a ROM update with the update Rom tool
3. Do hard SPL 3 or 4 usually its 3 after you syncronize with active sync.
4. Install the new Rom .
5. Wait for the device to start up.
Try the Mobiz Rom it worked in my case any questions feel free, bye.
the problem is i dont know how to do hard spl so can any one help me please am stuck and i have the same problem a white screen and nothing happins
