this afternoon i found an update on the swedish qtek site.
http://www.qtek.se/default.asp?nc=4484&id=127&element=0
wonder if it could be used by english speaking users? it says WWE, so i guess it is in english?
i'm uploading the unpacked installation folder to FTP now. maybe someone who knows his thing, could magic a .bat file with the correct checksum to change the carrier and language? [pinoo? ;-)]
the file is called: MA_Qtek(BrPt)_10600_116_10500_SHIP.zip
Hi there..
I will take a look... But my device is with PocketPcTechs at the moment... Getting 128MB RAM ... WOOOOOOOOOOOT
:lol:
Cheers
has anybody yet found out what the passwords for the rom files are?
btw, have the last ones (the imate rom for example) been cracked or did anyone blurt out the right keys?

A bad traduction :
Click on the links below in order to update your Qtek S100. Follows installationsguiden careful in order to few a correct updating.
ROM 1.06.116WWE
(updating from ROM 1.03.148WWE to ROM 1.06.116WWE)
The updating is only for Swedish sold Qtek S100 with software version 1.03.148WWE. In order to check which version you have pressures Start>Settings>System>Device information, you find the information on ExtROM version. If you try to update with another version of software can the to damage your Qtek S100.
The updating ROM 1.06.116WWE contains:
GSM-radio software
MMS client (2.0.0.20)
Caller IDS
Phone PAD Swedish T9
Updated Blåtandsmjukvara
Installationsguide ROM 1.06.116
actually it was pretty clear that qtek only offers their support to their respective customers. Nevertheless it should be quite possible to gain advantages out of an alien fw ;-)
...so it could not be used for I-mate JAM and other models.... :roll: If someone has updated the firmware pls report the "improvements"...

Primoz
Yes and please send us (or push it on the FTP) the content of ExtROM.
Thanks !

Anyone upgraded yet?
Hi, has anybody yet tried out the new QTEK ROM 1.06? If so, could you be so kind to make a ROM image and put it onto the ftp? Guess that'll be way easier than finding out some passwords to change the update-files?
thank you!
Why couldnt this be installed on non-swedish qtek s100?
Seems like an normal english rom-update
Wonder what it is with the bluetooth.
Cause the stack that is installed now is way to slow.
We need the passwords so xda3nbftool can be used to change operator id. Then we get past the Country id error...
So if anybody know the passwords that would be nice...
it cant be used out-of-the-box because the upgrade tools checks for your device-id, the carrier-id (which must be the one of qtek), the language (which, as you've said would fit) and the rom versions.
Thus, at least the carrier id would be different which is enough for the upgrade prog to abort. So there are 2 work-arounds:
1.) using xda3nbf-tool which requires the rom-passwords to decode the rom, change the parameters which are checked and re-encode the rom. Unfortunately anybody knows the passwords yet
2.) do a rom backup of a succesfully upgraded qtek-device with the bootloader-method which gives you *one* file that contains all the radio, the ext-rom and the os rom. This file needs to be modified by a hex-editor (which actually means to replace the first 412 bytes from the qtek-backup with the first byte of your own backup) --> restore the edited file et voilà: it should work. Unfortunatly anybody has posted such a backup yet...
conclusion:
way 2) is easier (at least we dont need any passkeys) nevertheless we still need that backup...

André
sorry, my upload was broken... should be ok now. the file is called MA_Qtek(BrPt)_10600_116_10500_SHIP.zip and you can find it in the Magician folder on the xda-ftp. it's basically just the unpacked installer.
could anybody tell me how to write a proper .bat file, like the one pinoo did for the i-mate rom? i suppose i need to change the 0x20040522... numbers to stop the installer giving the "invalid checksum" error?
...and reading the last post these numbers seems to be the passwords Guest was talking about...
any chance of getting them?
Be careful with this ROM. I tried to install it and now my Compact is dead . I can't reflash it anymore even from SD card. Tried everything and now it is in service-center. They are triing to fix it but still with no success ((
BTW you can install Radio ROM without any passwords and xda3nbf. Just remove all other .nbf files from directory and run update - and everything is OK without any mistakes. Problems appears after other upgrades (nb and mk_).

Just upgraded my Imate Jam radio stack to this one and seems that it improved phone sound quality a lot or am I just hoping so ?!
However no problems with upgrading the radio stack only!

Hope you can solve your Magician problem. Which file did you use to upgrade your PPC: MA_Qtek(BrPt)_10600_116_10500_SHIP.exe or MA_DANG_WWE_10600_115_10500_SHIP.exe.
Thanks

Dear all,
:?: I have some queries regarding the following, could someone please kindly help me ???
1. How do I backup Magican's Rom (OS, Radio and Ext) using romupdate.exe ???
2. If I wanted to put the backup rom from SD to Harddisk (the full rom from 1), do I use the same ntrw method and it will create as one single file ??
3. The file from 2, If I restore from bootloader, it will restore all 3 "sections" ???
4. What is the point of replacing the 220 (or 416 bytes) of the upgarde rom (from the old backup rom) ????
5. Replacing the bytes of the rom, does it affect the language, operator etc. identification of my device (like a Chinese device will become English) ??
6. When using the NoID exe to upgrade ROM, does it change my device's language, operator etc... ??? Or it just simply ignore the check (say for example if I have a Chinese O2 mini device, after using NoID exe upgrade to English, my device is still identified as Chinese machine so that next time if I get an official release of Chinese O2 mini shipped Rom, I can simply upgrade without using the NoID exe ????) !?
7. How would one check the identification of the device in regards to the model, language, operator etc. ???
I know I might sound like a fool and that are lots of questions, but have been searching the forum without sccuess !!
Thank you in advance !!!! :wink:
Dear you all,
Would someone be kind enough to help me on my queries !??
Please help me !!
i've heard that WM2003 in himalaya gadget can be uprade to WM2005, it's very interesting and i going to try the uprade, but i have some question about the upgrade, my question is:
1. what's the risk during upgrading? could my device occuring some permanent error?
2. what's the consequence of this? will my device working slower? or working faster?
3. if i don't satisfy with the WM2005 can i downgrade back to the WM2003 OS?
please help me by answering my question
Response:
1. the device may fail, but you can restart the whole process entering the device in bootloader mode and upgrading (happen to me once)
2.Your device will work Faster but sometimes (at boot sequence) will be slower.
that's the price you have to pay. Other thing is there is no MMS in WM5 (dont work for me) and some camera issues, that can be fixed. But is more eye-candy than the WM2003 or 2003SE.
3. If you aint satisfied you can go back to 2003SE just putting the device in bootloader mode and then making the upgrade using a WM2003 ROM (the nbf file)
One thing: Tofclock and Buzz (thanks guys!) are working hard to bring us one stable, better and faster WM5 ROM, so be quiet and wait like me :wink:
Hi guys,
I ve also heard that after you upgrade to Wm 5.0 the phone vibratin wont work, is that true?
what else then?
:roll:
Thanks
Hi dickyw,
my vibration on my Himalaya works perfect...
Hi Guys,
Can anyone help another dumb newbie?
I upgraded my Himalaya to W2k5 OK from the O2 exe file, but I now want to downgrade to 2003 SE.
The folder I am trying to use to downgrade is WindowsMobile2003SE_XDA2_2.20.00CHS-translated.zip
Himaupgradeut.exe gives:- Error 120 Country ID error 1-1-8-n-1
HimaupgradeUt_noid.exe gives:- Error 103 ROM image file not found
XDA image tool gives me:-Unsupported file format error for NK.nbf
I have:-
Boot loader 1.06
CE image 1.72.00
Extended image 1.72.181
Radio image 1.17.00
Am I using the wrong tools, the wrong ROM or an incorrect procedure? I'm doing this for a friend so it's getting very embarassing. Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks, Mike
Another issue to aware of when upgrading to WM5 is that you need to also upgrade to Activesync 4.1 as 3.8 won't work any more. Given that AS can be very tempremental it may take some time to get the sync link back up and working to your satisfaction so if your data is cruitial to your work then backup, backup, backup and upgrade when you have a few days free to dedicate to ironing out any wrinkles.
Then also xbackup doesn't work in WM5 so you are left with options like buying the latest Sprint backup soiftware (now WM5 compatible) or relying upon your PC Outlook to be your "backup data" (NB I use the Outlook free "backup" util to back up my pst files on exiting Outlook as double insurance).
Regards - Mallow1
PS I upgraded and v glad I did. Had a few AS issues but eventuall got there (took a lot of reading of forums and As battles, but worth it in the end)
cnimike,
One assumes that you have unzipped the zip file first before trying to reflash? If not try that (say use winzip). Also try reading the wiki as a guide to what to do (seee link attop left of page).
You are also best o use the HimaupgradeUt_noid.exe as at least it avoids the first error (esle you'll have to edit the flash files first and recompile them which is straight forward but if you are a noobie it's a step that can be avoided by using the "...noid.exe") and if you haven't unzipped the said file doing that may well sort out your second error.
Get back to me if you need more help.
Regards - Mallow1

I would suggest getting a hold of Sin's merged version (details in signature) or XDA2JoJo's version. Simply flash the ROM and you are there. Elsewhere, SIN has set out the steps in the most detailed fashion you are going to see outside a software manufacturer's manual. :wink:
When I try to upgrade my i-mate JAM to a new special ROM from Kichen after a step this masage apears "Cannot execute the remote comunication program. Plese make sure that the USB/Serial cable is properly connected.
so guys plz help me urgent
Does the same error come up when you flash with a shipped-rom which hasn't been changed?
Does your device respond to any commands from the update program? If so, what happens on your device?
And what did you change in the rom?
As you probably guessed: I don't know an answer to this & i'm trying to figure out what is different in your setup compared to a regular update.
Regards, M
Thanx 2 reply
No dear every thing is OK When I try to update with shiped ROM it works 100% no problem. When I click in my computer the device is located and opens software installs nothing abnormal every thing is as usual, But when I try to update it with special ROM (got from Kichen that I like very much) the folowing masage appears
I guess that romkitchen isn't compatible with magician :-(. You can try to put in the GetDeviceDara.exe from a shipped-rom in the appropriate romkitchen folder, maybe it helps. Cause I love to see this working.
Good luck, M
Let me do it
The rom I got is for windows 2003 SE so I think it should work, now let me act your advise then i'll inform you.
regards
The same problem i have
I try to update one of my friends i-mate JAM in a dfrent PC but the same problem I got. I think the rom is not compatible with JAM. Do you know another ROM to work on my JAM like available in Kitchen???
Well I haven't experimented with RomKitchen & don't know what you want to achieve with it. Ext-roms can be edited with bal666's tool too & there are loads of different (not edited) ext-roms @ the ftp.
& of course there's the BIG Storage hack, with which you trade in the ext-rom for an enlarged internal Storage folder.
Haven't seen anyone yet who really edited the CE image :-(
M
Yes I tried but...
I tried big ROM but in 3rd stage the folowing masage appears "card incilize error" When it tries to back up ROM on SD card. I have MMC not SD Now may be this is cause or somthing other. Have you updated your device with big storage rom & is it OK???
If so I'll try again
I downloaded the ROM form this site http://www.romkitchen.de I updated one of my friends PPC from this site's Rom its performance is 50% increased. but mine (JAM) is not going to update
I did it with a patched shipped-rom :!: Follow this link & I think you should be able to manage http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianRomUpgrade
RomKitchen is also on this forum, but I think it's for other devices. You can find it in the wiki.
Cheers, M
Ok let me do it
Thanks dear let me download and check it. One thing that my JAM is from i-mate & there is T-mobie ROM, but its for Magician so should I do it no problem? Will I be able to reload its shiped ROM that I have already. sorry for my broken english
Yes it's no problem to use another magician rom, use maupgradeut_noid.exe to bypass country id error. To flash your current shipped-rom back just follow the same procedure.
Be carefull to backup your current ext-rom cabs though, they do contain some operator specific settings for eg gprs, voicemail etc. You need to install some of them instead of the TMO ones present in the TMO 1.13WWE rom. You can use WinCE cabmanager (available on trial) to have a look inside the cabs & decide wich ones to use.
This is my list of the Dutch TMO 1.13WWE ext-rom cabs anyway:
BlueTooth patch:
BTHUSB_PATCH_AKU26.CAB
MMS:
CAB-Acrosoft-MMS-2.5.0.28-ENU-MagicianAKU2.6-13May06.CAB
Needed in combi with MMS (does contain Dutch T-Mobile specific settings though)

Certificates:

Hi all, I am about to upgrade my fathers Touch Pro (EU version) from the stock WM 6.1 Fr to Taels 6.5 version.
Nevertheless I need help on 3 very important questions, and that is why I come to you.
I have already installed the HSLP so that part is done, and I have used PIM backup for the contacts, sms, calendar, email and logs.
1) So the question is, will a PIM backup done in WM6.1 be able to restore everything in WM6.5 or will there be some incompatibility issues?
2) As you might know TAEL ROM is an English ROM, but the Touch Pro has an AZERTY keyboard. Is there a way to correctly map ALL the hardware keys on the phone? If yes, how?
3) Finally, if my father does not like the phone the way it is, can I go to the HTC website and download the latest official WM6.1 ROM for the phone and just flash it even with the HSPL on. I don't really need to remove it as it is not in the guarantee any more, but I would like to know if I need to do something to be able to flash the old ROM in.
Thank you all for your help.
Please urgent answers, as I am supposed to do everything today.
1. In my experience, pim back up could be buggy with 6.5. It's been a while since I used it (probably 1.5 yrs), but I highly recommend backing up in multiple ways. Do the pimbackup, also just copy pim.vol to the sd card (that's the method I use). If you have sk tools, use it to backup the pim info. You can also install myphone (or just windows live) and back it up that way. Seriously, you can't have too many backups, in case of a snafu.
To restore pim.vol, right after the flash copy it (don't move it, copy it) with total commander back to the device root and then immediately do a soft reset. I don't know why, but sometimes it doesn't update properly if you screw around for a while before resetting the device. Or, just restore with pimbackup. It will probably be slow.
2. Dunno.
3. Yes, you can flash whatever you want with hard spl. Don't bother over-writing it with the stock spl if you decide to go back to stock (unless it's for warranty reasons).
Hi Farmer Ted, thanks for your responses.
I've done the procedure yesterday and I can answer my questions if anyone has them too.
1) So regarding the first one, PIM backup will recover all your contacts, logs, mms and sms. I have had an error when it came to e-mail, but you can configure that anyway and through imap4 you should not loose any.
2) The second response was given by some people already on XDA, and that is to go to the regedit of the phone. Thankfully tael had one already pre-installed and now I'll just copy paste what I've found:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLang
change the value in hex 40C
Then save the changes and reboot the phone.
Thankfully all the fn keys work as intended.
PS: The software keyboard will not change unless you install a different one on it.
Regarding my last question, I still did not fully understand the answer. If I go to HTC, download the latest official ROM for the phone, can I flash it straight away, even though I have HSPL 1.9 olex in the phone?
Note: I don't need to remove it for warranty reasons, but I don't want to brick the phone by having it on when installing the official WM6.1 release.
Thanks for all your help so far.
Just so you know, I have flashed the stock ROM after I downloaded it from the HTC support site and have not experienced any issues without having to flash stock spl
Thank you very much (+1 thank), this information was very useful to me.
