Hi,
Im now currently running Smart1-NEW-V2 on my QtekS200.
In the installation description, i first had to install the following rom:
RUU-Prophet-220734-2207114-024721-NVID-exe
As far as i understand, this one has: IPL: 2.20 and SPL: 2.20 (and radio 2.47.21)
The installation went well, but when i now restart, my unit shows;
IPL 2.10 (!!!!)
SPL 2.20
My question is; shouldnt the NVID-exe have upgraded my IPL to 2.2?
Is something wrong?
(tried searching and reading about this on the forum, but didnt become any wiser. Will be grateful for an explanation)
most roms do not include update for ipl... there is no need to upgrade ipl
I have the latest 2.20 qtek rom and a still have IPL 2.09 on my device... no problem!
I found the links on this forum for them.. but I wanna find out :
1) Every rom I upgrade, it wipes out all the data in my prophet right? So its not just a simple upgrade which will retain all the data (OS) inside
2) My Dopod 818 pro has the below hardware info, all right to proceed ? :
1) IPL : 1.00
2) SPL : 2.15.0000 (G3)
3) Is there any real advantage in upgrading the IPL/SPL?
Dont install IPL/SPL version 3.08
ipl/spl update is easy if you know the different betwen g3 and G4 doc
I'm triying to make UPGRADE with differents ROM but when the process finish i stell having the same OS WM5 from Tmobile, i did downgrade with botton downgrade rom i used LOKIWIZZ but ever happen the same, what i doing wrong?
ISPL 3.08
SPL 3.08
You should be more detailed in explaining things.
First Try to tell us step by step what errors are you getting.
On the signature you say ipl/spl 3.08 (it should mean you're cid unlocked).
So please describe the update rom process better
OK First I had IPL 2.26 and SPL 2.26 with TMOBILE wizard ROM I tryed to update to to WM6 HTC Professional + Home, everything in the process look in order, pass to 99 % in the Progress BAR and wait several minutes and i get again the tmobile ROM the same one, so read several post and I dicide to downgrade with Wizard Button ROM, and it was succesefully, I was in that moment ipl 1.05 something else and SPL 2.26, so I used, so I upgrade to the TMOBILE wizard ROM, and I get IPL 2.26 and SPL 2.26 and I'm tryed again to made a new UPGRade with the same ROM WM6 HTC Professional + Home and it was the same results again, so I made the UPGRADE with the IPS_SPL 3.08 File and now I m in this point now. So what i must do?
Downgrade IPL and SPL does not mean you have CID unlocked your phone. You need to use lokwiz02 to unlocked it when IPL is 1.01. Then first upgrade IPL to 2.2x / 3.08, after that you can proceed to upgrade WM6.
All instructions and links are in stickes.
hello all and thanks for the help
i have a g3 kjam after flowing the 3 steps
1.installing the rom that downgrade the ipl to 1.00
2.cid unlock
3.installing the rom that changes ipl/spl tp 3.08
any rom that i try to install finshes 100% succsesful
but still boot a wm5 rom with a new icon when starts
any help will be great
thanks
I thought you need a solid 2.xx rom to flash a new rom ??
Personally, I went from button 1.05 rom to TMobile 2.26 rom to new WM6 rom.
I flashed 3.08 later - as is does not change the O/S - only IPL/SPL. Did not find any benefit to it, so went back down to 2.26
Please note that there are freezing issues if you flash down from 3.08 to 1.05. Apparently the spl can freeze if you do this - and that is a problem. So, to play it safe - do not do that - thanks.
It is always recommended that you flash a solid 2.xx rom such as the TMobile one when going between the different WM6 roms available here - you may want to try that - go down to 2.xx, then upgrade to WM6
thats very good to know i'm actualy in a freeze spl is on 3.08
any idea hwo to downgrade?
I've attached a link to another thread about the freezing issue. Unfortunately, it does not give the answer as to how to fix it. But - should no one else answer on this - I would recommend that you send a private message to senior user "mestrini", and hopefully he can walk you through it.

I got my info from him as per the attached post. I do not have enough experience as to why it freezes - or how to fix it.
Good luck
Well,after downgrading to 1.xx and CID unlocking,its essential to upgrade to ipl/spl 2.xx for upgrade to wm6,its highly recommended to upgrade to 2.xx by flashing the T-mobile 2.26 for a solid base,but,however, you can still even upgrade to wm6 with ipl/spl 3.08.Wm6 works on 2.xx and 3.xx.

I believe your phone is still CID locked,you didn't do the CID unlock method correctly,but you upgraded to ipl/spl 3.08,now you can only CID unlock your phone by downgrading to 1.xx. Yes! SPL freezes if you downgrade to 1.xx from 3.08.So always first downgrade to 2.xx and then to 1.xx.Now I'll advise you to upgrade to IPL/SPL 3.08 again and then try to downgrade to 2.xx by flashing the T-mobile or Wizard_love Rom or official stock Rom of your carrier if other then T-mobile.If succeed to downgrade to 2.xx,only then flash Button's Rom 1.05 to get to 1.xx and apply the lokiwiz02b to CID unlock the phone.After that upgrade to 2.xx by flashing T-mobile 2.26 and upgrade to any wm6 Rom.
Cheers!
thanks for tring but device doesn't let me downgrade to 2.26 or any other 2.xx ipl/spl only stright down to 1.xx and like you said spl freeze on 3.08
when i tried wizard love it did the rom flash but still ipl/spl 3.08
i'll try to find my 2.xx official rom

Be Carefull !!!
Your phone is 'HardSPL' DO NOT,I repeat Do Not flash any rom containing any IPL/SPL in it,otherwise,it'll 'BRICK' the phone.
If you want to flash any official rom with IPL/SPL,then first remove HardSPL and revert back to Original official IPL/SPL and then upgrade the IPL/SPL!
