I know, i should do it myself, but phones and I do not get on. At all..
Are there any people out there who can update a SPV C600 phone from origanal rom to what ever is the lastest? 6.5 i think from reading here.
Would be nice to get some more use out of the phone, only had it 4 years But anything to keep it as i love it.
Also, looked at doing the step by step upgrade, but says i need to be amember of the rapidshare web site, is there a way to get the rar without paying?

You don't have to be a member of rapidshare in order to download from there.
The "premium" members just get a faster download speed.
Upgrading from the original rom isn't too difficult .... just follow the steps listed in the how to the letter and you should be fine.
Trying to do this myself, following the guides, but i cant even get Activesync 4.5 to see the phone lol..
I think i better stop before i break it and just put up with WM5.

Hi
I bought a O2 Exec and it has WM06 on it
I want to go back to WM05
How do I go on with that?
Thanks
Yeshai
well technically you flash it so i have heard. but dont go on my word im just telling you what i have found when I SEARCHED
If you are on O2, the easiest way is to visit the O2 xda website (http://www.my-xda.com/xdaExecSoftware.jsp) and download the software update. That will flash it back to a pretty unresponsive (but official) version of WM5. Make sure you use it in corporate mode (the PIN you need when you come the the appropriate place in the setup is 0506) otherwise it is extremely slow.
Alternatively, you could try downloading one of the AKU 3.3 or AKU 3.5 ROMs. I always liked Helmi's. Search the forums to find them.
Also - make sure you read the relevant advice in the wiki and in the forums on upgrading lest you end up with a brick.
Good luck
Problem is not backstepping, but finding, after so long, the roms you might read about and would like to try!
Thank you all
I was too afraid to try it like that.
It does seem strait forward.
And I have a full backup of XDA old FTP site
i downgrade to wm5 now
i am getting an 8125 next week from somebody who was a cingular customer. he got the factory unlock code from a cingular rep (but he cant unlock it cuz he doesnt have a different carriers sim card). is there any difference if i use that to unlock it or if i use the lokiwiz program i keep reading about??
also, as you can probly tell im new to pda's. to load the window mobile 6 would i have to unlock the CID (which im not even sure what it is)? what are the benefits for using wm6 and is it fully functional on the 8125 (ive read a few posts from ppl that say they have problems). i also saw a thread for making an i-phone skin...is it possible to have both wm6 and this iphone skin? also, can anyone explian what this aku2 rom is?
sorry to make this post, but there are so many threads about the stuff i am inquiring about and hundreds of pages and its just too long to go thru. if anybody can help me out that would be appreciated...thanks a bunch!!!
Other than to say you need to read some of the sticky's in the WM6 forum, as well as the Wiki's - here's a few hints:
If you have a G3 - get it CID unlocked. If it's a G4, you can leave it locked and still flash WM6 just fine - if you use shelltool.
WM6 is mostly cool factor, with a few new features. How many people can say they're running WM6? Bleeding edge, baby, but it ain't without some pain.
iPhone skin - yes, and good luck. I tried it, and it was a slow pig - it looked alot like the iPhone, but not worth the bling. Try driving your car with a painted tarp on it. yeah, right. Can barely open the doors.
As for aku2, no idea. Hit search and check it out.
You got lots of reading ahead of you. I spent 10 hours reading before my first attempt at flashing - and I'm a fast reader.
yea im doing a lotta reading....where is the link to the wm6? i cant seem to find it!
check my sig for all unlocking problems...once you do that worry about WM6..Just check out a section and read up on the roms

Don't learn by flashing. Learn by reading. $400 is a lot of jack to waste trying to learn by experience.

You can't use it with the cingular sim card beause you don't need it!
You have to borrow a sim card other than your carrier's sim card to apply the code. Once applied, the sim portion of your cell is unlocked for life if you have the right code.
Lockwiz will CID unlock your phone as well. Once successfull with this portion, you can install any ROM or Custom ROM....designed for your TYPE of device.
You are currently running an AKU2 ROM.
Based on your line of questioning, you have a WHOLE lot of reading to do. You sound like you're on your way to be stuck in bootloader mode.
Do your reading 1st, collect all your tools and all you need can be found by you doing the research in the threads. All the answers to your questions are in the WIKI....it's your friend.
This was a freebee....if you're not willing to go thru the hundreds of threads, as you stated to get the answer....use the search tool or stay with your factory ROM.
Remember: This is a Developer's Forum, not a USER's Forum
This thread you created was a waste!
no pain ... no gain....
imho it starts to look like a 3th rang helpdesk here
Hi,
Is there anyone who knows if it's possible to upgrade my old Qtek9100 to WM6 (english) and how (mini installations guide)?
If this is possible do anyone know if it's possible to install HTC Home Plugin a la HTC Touch on my Qtek9100?
Look forward hearing from all of you...
Sure that you can upgrade to WM6 (because I, am a newbie, did it my self). Just follow instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
Do EXACTLY step-by-step and it'll naturally done, not complicated at all!
About HTC Touch & Plugin, i dont know because have never used. I'll try later...
The best thing is to READ first then ask questions...
One more useless topic!
Sigh...
thanks a lot
...but where do I find the WM6 for my Qtek9100 or is it the T-Mobile 2.26 ROM (and is this in german) who is the WM6? If not do you know if I can have free WM6 for my Qtek9100?

Oh no you can't! WM6 for the Wizard would cost you at least a hundred bucks...
Well maybe I have THE solution for you:
Once again: READ! for God's sake!
Dear Quiyaro
OK I didn't know that and maybe this is why I ask. I hope not I get you to be angry because it's seems that I did that. I have been trying to find out by reading but I can't find the answers I looking for therefore I'm asking again.
In the first place I was only asking if I could upgrade my Qtek9100 from WM5 to WM6 and I got a long list of things that I should do before but nobody told me before you that I should buy a WM6 also.
Thanks in advance. I think I'll drop to upgrade my PDA because it seems to be a little bit to complicated for me but if you can help me I'll be glad anyway...

He's messing with you. Read those topics carefully especially if you have a g4. it shoud tell you how to tell. You'll figure it out and soon be a rom addict like us.
Hi,
I have bought A Qtek 9000 (universal) from Ace hellas (Greek represantative of Qtek). I have read a lot of posts how to upgrade to WM6 but I am afraid to do anything without be sure.
If I am not mistaken, my ppc (from Ace hellas) was locked. So I cant backup extender rom and etc that suggest all upgrading methods.
Is there someone who have passed WM6 in such a device from greece? I want exactly the steps and what I need to do! In order to not 'brake' my lovely device!
Thanks for your support!
Read the WIKI
Hello and welcome to the forum
The best advice I or anyone else can give you is go to the WIKI and READ! honestly, you will learn far more and know what to do than someone telling you bits. It tells you everything you need to know, all the problems you could have, and how to get round them. DO NOT dive in and try before you know what to do. Do this and you will have many happy hours using your device, jump in and you will have one expensive door stop my friend.
Regards
Jay
Hello All,
I do a lot of reading and follow along pretty good so far. I have done the unlock (I think I did) I was able to use other carrier's chip while travel over sea. So I figure that I have unlocked my Treo 750. I was also do the up grade to WM6.1 without any problems.. But now I keep reading the SPL and the IPL posts. So I took a look at my Treo 750, and it show IPL 0.20 and the SPL 0.24.0000. I try everything that was offered in the forum to unlock and reset and all the tricks and tips. Nothing works. The best I got was using the Cheeunlock and it only goes to 7% on my Treo and reset really quick. I seem to remember upgrade once to the WM6.5 using one of the forum members suggestion, but for the life of me I can't do it any more. I went back to the WM6.1 in matter of facts using the suggested method by a forum member. That is where I am at now. The question that I have is that, if I was able to upgrade to WM6.1 and using other carrier's chip. Am I unlock? Or am I just thinking that I am? , also why can I change the SPL and the IPL value? Thanks in advance for all the help, and sorry for such a long post.
O.K. so many views but no reply, but it is all in the name of testing. I guess after I have post this question and recevied no reply, I did some more reading and going throught he instructions over and over again and again, can never pass the #11 step to see the blue screen for upgrade. But I finally did it. The thing I did was to follow the upgrade and unbranded post here till the #11 step and the only change that I made was to included the *.nbh file (which ever one you want to put in.) in the tempche folder in your computer, and it took the upgrade and unlock the phone, change the hard spl and all that good stuff just like the instruction said. I guess you can called that #11a in the instructions. After I did all that I can do the upgrade to the WM6.5 without any problems, and revert back to the WM6.1 without a hitch. So if you guys are having problems doing the unbranded or upgrade try to put the *.nbh file in the tempche, instead of in your sd card. Good luck I am waiting now for the new 23XXXX build WM 6.5 to come out so I can play with the phone some more.
