I have a Qtek 9100 with wm5, when I start it up it reads:
Ipl 2.17.0001
Spl 2.17.0001
Gsm 02.07.10
Os 2.17.7.2
I would like to upgrade it to WM6 and maybe add some of the new features of the HTC touch. I love the wizard and refuse to give up the keyboard but would like to have some of the functionality of the touch. I can hack a pc just fine but have never messed around on a mobile before. I do not want to brick this thing. I have PHM registry editor installed on my wizard. I was hoping someone had a clear cut answer on how to upgrade my device to WM6 and install some cool apps along the way. I love reading the many posts on this great site, I have learned alot. If anyone can help out this newbie I would be forever grateful.

more questions
Thanks for the reply, I have determined that I have G4 unlocked model. Now the next question that I have is do I need to upgrade my existing rom before installing a WM6 rom. If not do you have any suggestions on which WM6 rom to install?
Did you mean CID Unlocked G4? If you are not sure then look for shell tool and follow some others in G4 forum.
I checked and it is CID unlocked, so my next question is which WM6 rom should I use? Does anyone know if the new "touch" applications will work on a g4 model? I have searched through the G4 postings and I have not found anything on this.
My idea

I think NBD 7.4 is the best WM6 "touched" rom...
But I don't know if it's working on G4 wiz....

G3 and G4 have nothing different apart from the boot chip. So it should work (I may be wrong but you can safely give a try).

Don't remember who shared this, but I thought it would be appropriate here:
The members of this forum are advanced users, and they are expecting this from other members too. Thus if you don't want to lose your face in front of the other members, I suggest you try to solve your problems yourself first, and then search on this forum and even on the whole internet, and if then you still couldn't solve your problem, the link 'Post reply' or the link 'New thread' on this forum are there for you...So you will be sure that the problem you couldn't solve, isn't just something explained before and other members of this forum won't laugh at you...
The members with very high post count will not always be able to help you out in the best way...It is very easy to post hundreds of replies every day, but it's much harder to post so many useful replies! Sometimes you will see a thread becoming very long, thanks to some users willing to thank someone over hundreds of time. Of course, it is very polite to thank someone that helped you out, but you will see that all those thank you and other useless post are making it very hard for you and other members to find the posts that really will help you out of your little problem...So, an other suggestion for you is that you only post what really matters, that way, you will very soon be so popular in this forum and on any other forum that you might get famous by a lot of people and a lot of people might even remember you every time they are using their Pocket PC...wouldn't that be great??!
So, now you got a little introduction to this forum I'm sure you will find out your way and make it to the 'Search' button just on top of every page on this forum. Then, a new world will open for you, you will be able to find tons of information, more than ten or twenty thread are just on the subject what you where asking for and you will see that while you are searching, you will very soon get a little frustrated to find more than ten times exactly the same instructions to solve your problem. I am sure, very soon we will see some replies from you asking other members to just use that little search link before posting a question that was solved ten times before on this forum...
Have a nice day, we hope you will be able to help us out too if we got some problem that you might be able to solve!!
Hi Guys,
thanks for watching. DUe to some good roms of you i upgraded yesterday my qtek s200 to wm6. Now the i love the Gui of the TouchFlo 3D. How could i download and install it on my running device.
Du i need this hdsql (or whatever).
Yess i saw many rom here in the forum but none was like touchflo 3d espacially for the messaging keyboard. I want to get rid of my stylus pen. And i think this would be a good possibility.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
RonLion

Cos' ram is less
ah, ok.
But wm 6.1 prof is possible? do you know a good rom in english.
thanks. cheers,

The forum is full of good 6.1 roms. Suggest u spend a little time reading then when u understand what u have to do, go and try some ROMS for yourself and learn

I am a noob with xda, I have spent hours reading, and trying to learn. I am still not clear how to safely update my orbit 1 to wm6.1 with touchflo.
For the non experienced (with xda) this forum is very difficult to find information.
Virtually every post / tutorial uses technical terms which presume previoius knowledge of htc / xda firmware and upgrades.
I am not IT incompetent.
There are a number of iPhone forums which have very straightforward forums which guide the reasonably competent computer user to unlock iphone, upgrade firmware and software.
Is there a straightforward tutorial available in xda-developers to help me upgrade to wm6.1 with touchflo?
Thanks colink

Firts, I would like to ensure you that I am not flaming or anything like that.
But, I have to Agree with Colink, this is not a noobfriendly forum
I´ve just bought a S200 from a friend (I´ve been dreaming with it since 2006!) and was a very pleasent surprise to know that Prophet could run WM 6.1 (I like Touchflo 3d, but for me, is not necessary.)
So, just as Colink (I supose), I´ve spent the last week reading this forum...and XDA forum too. I´m very sure that everything i should (or even can) know about prophet, is here. There is no other place to search...
But, the volume of knowledge is so huge, that sometimes is even confuse to absorb it.
So, I agree with colink and ask, Is there any tutorial to upgrade my WM version?
I´m pretty sure that I´ll upgrade it with or without tutorial... but as since as theres so many "expert" around here and, they did so much to the whole forum... wouldn´t be hard to someone write a quick tutorial.
But, I hope you all understand, that what I´m doing here, and I supose colink too, is just searching at the best (probably) only place to find anything about our ppc... not been lazy, we are just afraid of screwing something.
Thanks!

Colink, in response to your comments above you would have read the very good guides to upgrading such as these:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405384 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401326 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353547.
When i did my first flash i started with this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315016. I then Hardspl using the guides above. The info i read recomended this way, so i used it. You will also have read from the guides about using XP not Vista to flash and also ensuring you remove all devices from USB ports and turning off other comunication s/w. The guides also offer good info on what to do when it goes wrong. If you do flash 6.1 rom and it goes wrong, then you can revert back to 315016 thread (aku 2.2 rom) as the guides say, this wil get you device working again
This post gives you links to the guides and a list of Roms, although you should check for new ones also : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377545
The wiki is also useful : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_Contributed_ROMs
Now i hope this is both useful to yourself and d.magliano. I know that too much info is always a head wrecker, but really the guides are very good.
Hi Timmymarsh
Thanks for the response and the guidance. I am currently reading through the links you gave.
Unfortunately in my haste, before reading your post I followed instructions for installing USPL.
I have just run start_uspl.exe on my orbit 1, after following instructions re- soft reset.
Phone is showing white screen asdescribed in tutorial
PDA ROM update utility has opened on xp laptop.
Instructed to conect via active sync.
Active sync cannot find device.
I have not touched phone and do not want to brick it.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
The phone is currently connected to the charger with white screen. I presume I will have to restart and hope for the best.
Secondly the first link you give in your reply is for 'Prophet' - do I need different instructions / aplications for Artemis / Orbit?
Thanks Colin
i'll try to help yoy

Colin, im not familiar with o2 branded stuff so excuse ignorance, but is the orbit not based on the touch cruise/polaris?
hi
Sorry my fault, I believe the orbit is same as artemis p3300 & touch cruise. I thought I was posting in Artemis forum.
I presume your links are not relevant to my phot?
If you can guide me about my current White screen / no connection problem I would appreciate it.
Thanks colink

Colink, i thought it was touch cruise hardware and ****, thats not good!! You are correct in thinking that you cannot use the prophet section in flashing. If i were you, id goto the polaris section and read how to recover. HardSPL and flashing is more complex for the Polaris, i am waiting for official wm6.1 rom before i try any cooked ones on there. If you are lucky you can recover your device by removing the battery for at least 30 seconds and try and restart, but i do fear you may have bricked your device as the SPL is one of two parts that help load you OS (apols if my descriptions are basic, i dont want to confuse)
Read the Polaris section and look for help, if not ask, but you may get rude reply. Sorry i cant help more, as i have not tried on my touch cruise yet. Let me know what happens, pm me if you want
hi timmymarsh
Thanks for your guidance. The Polaris is the orbit 2. My orbit1 is the Artemis. Not sure if it has same complexeties as Polaris.
I will follow your guidance and let you know.
Colink
Colink,
Ignore my pm and goto here, i hope it helps (ps make sure you post in the right place in future and if u ask for help, make it clear your device and steps taken and donot criticise those who try to help, unlike some who post)
pm me and tell me how it goes!

Where do you get the WM 6.5 ROM for the Fuze? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Just head over to the Raphael Rom Development section and there are tons of 6.5 ROMs to choose from....
of course, however, read the first sticky on flashing a rom in detail and do your research.
Officially, ATT is not purported to release a 6.5 for the fuze.
I have to recommend NRG’s Energy 3.0 Phoenix ROMs. I am running the 052209 version and he just released the 052809 update. I have found NRG’s ROMs to be FAST and VERY stable. If this is your first flash, this one might be the best to go with at first, hell it is the best what am I saying.
I can also recommend RRE's rom, which is what I'm using. I haven't tried the other one, because I was too lazy to set up the connections over the weekend myself. The RRE rom is configured to work "out of the box" on the at&t network. Fast & stable. Haven't had one problem with it. When we have another "rainy day" and I can't get outside, I might screw around with some of the others. Give the 6.5 a try, it's (in my opinion) better than 6.1.
But, BE WARNED! The cooks almost always post an FAQ section on their respective rom section because they get tired of answer the same questions over and over and over again....who wouldn't, so, if you ask a newbie question, expect to be ignored or flamed.
give it a try, and have fun!
Hi all!
I'm new here. I bought a new (half year old) kaiser with a cooked rom. First I restored the original wm 6.1 rom. But this is very slow. I searched and found a lot of rom but I can't choice. I search a rom which is small and fast include java and live messenger and better camera driver (too noisy and after sunset it is taking a picture up to 10 seconds!). I found a new display driver under development, on this page. I would like to this driver be part of the cooked rom, if the driver is working property (i hope this is understandable ). So my phone is original non-SIM-locked and the bootloader has cracked. one thing: on the original rom the tcpmp don't start, but with the cooked rom it ran. I don't need wm 6.5 but if that is better no problem.
thanks for your help!
I hope my first thread is created at the good part of the forum
Firstly,
Welcome to the forum! This is the right part of the forum for Kaiser ROM, however ...
Secondly,
You'll need to do a lot of reading, and decide based on that. As a newbies, I did ask this question too, and the answer came back: no recommendation can be given, each must take each' journey.
You can make the decision by reading the thread of each ROM, read the responses, and clarification by other users.
It takes a lot of hardwork to read, and it takes more hardwork for the chef's to cook a ROM that works well! So, my suggestion is to read more and ask less.
Happy hunting
(and mod, please shut down the thread)
ROMs
I can't say one is better than the other. I've tried quite a few ROMs and have settled on TPC Elite, however that is what works best for my purposes. The previous answer to your post is correct, lots of reading and then make the decision on your own.
Once you have HardSPL installed (version depends on the ROM your flashing as I've read), you can flash a different ROM every day like you decide what shirt to wear each morning. It's quite awesome!
thx all!
im on it. i am reading the rom infos since i registered here. but i thinked i found somebody who is minimalist like me
Anryl ROM is great but now anryl stop making ROM for Kaiser
so now I'm stuck with TPC Elite ROM... great ROM. so I recommend this one... try V4.
better you read the tutorial first about upgrading ROM, radio, SPL etc..
if i seen good (direct from hungarian ) the TPCElite needs hardslp v3.56 and i have spl-3.56.Hard CPLD-8 so this is passed. total 100mb ram? its better than oem (85) i will try this
i confused the 3d graphic driver is included?
Try any of the latest ROM out there, then stick to the 1 without problem I almost bricked my kaiser last time flashing hardspl. so be careful.. Dun flash unneccesary to much
