I got my hands on the Greek firmware from qtek.gr with a friend's IMEI and installed as is desribed in the forum with the use of MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe. (from French to Greek)
After the upgrade was finished and I resetted the qtek I got a message saying something about Illigal ROM and this the property of ACE HELLAS....
Now everytime I turn on my pocket pc it just resets after a while. I don't even get in the main interface. It resets after it shows the little red numbers on the right corner. (WWE etc)
I would really appreciate some help in this matter. I was given the s100 as a gift from a French friend and haven't been using it for a few months now because I was trying to translate it to Greek. (the greek company could not help either )
Basically you're scr*wed. The Greek firmware has some extra checks in it & that's what you're experiencing now. You need to revert to another firmware to get your device functioning again. To do this download a shipped-rom, put your device in bootloader & flash. See the wiki for more complete instructions.

Thank you very much for your answer!
This place is huge!! is there a chance you could provide a link to that?
Thanks again
Sure explore the magician part, especially the howto on rom upgrading via exe-file via this link http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Magician on that page are links to several shipped-roms (exe-files) too, just pick a current one. WWE mean World Wide English & 1.13 is the most recent one.
Good luck,
M
Thank you very much!
I am downloading a shipped rom as I write and got my qtek bootlock!
Let's hope this works!
Btw I couldn't find version 113 at the xda ftp.
This is a WWE 1.13 rom, only the ext-rom network settings are Netherlands T-Mobile: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Shipped_ROMS/NL_11300_131_11200.exe

Hi again.
I installed this: WWE_11200_152_11200.exe
And the whole menu has some strange pink and grey colours and stuff like that.
Can I revert it back to windows?
Thanks again
So it's alive again
Just change the today theme 'start -> settings -> today' to Windows default. You can delete the T-mobile theme *.tsk from \windows on your device to spare some RAM afterwards.
M
Yes!!! it's alive and all thanks to your help!
Many thanks again!
You wouldn't know how to get rid of all those T-Mobile logos from everywhere or bring the little icons (for contacts etc) that T-mobile put in my phone now would you...?
They came with the ext-rom. Did you notice the Customizing pop-up just after you finished the initialization? You can skip that part by soft-resetting your device just before the pop-up shows. So hard-reset again & after the message 'tap the screen to begin using your device' you soft-reset when the default blue Windows wallpaper shows.
Now you got a plain 2k3 device!
The T-Mobile today-plugin can be switched off via 'start -> settings -> today -> items' & uncheck what you don't like. Doesn't work for the intelli-dialer though.
So start resetting...
M
Thanks again.
Do you by any chance know how I can write Greek in SMS?
The keyboard gives me some wierd characters!
Sorry besides a vacation I haven't done anything in Greek for 20 years.
Can't help you with that. Is there a Greece t9?
M
:lol:
I have set up Greek in the localization option and the date appears in Greek.
This little button appears on the left side of the keyboard near Shift that looks like it should have Greek on it. When I press it all those wierd symbols appear.
And yes that is the Greek t9 I guess.
btw how do I soft-reset the phone? by just pressing the reset button underneath the phone?
And hard-reset by pressing the On/Off button and the reset button?
You're right about the way to soft-&hard-reset. The opt.symbol button is for special characters, not all necessarily Greek.
Probably the true Greek rom gives you proper Greek, but then we're back to the beginning :-(
Is it still good enough to use for you?
M
I can live with it
I will just have to SMS ppl in Enlgish.
I found a software from microsoft that translates and offers Greek keyboard. i might buy that.
Thanks again!
You're welcome
greek sms
try paragon's software (http://pocket-pc-software.penreader.com/index.html)
or the phoneplus application with the greek language file (http://www.mesoftware.biz/phoneplusmain.htm)
ore one of the attached files
Hope I helped, Cya javascript:emoticon(':wink:')

How do you install the two files you have attached to the thread?
Just copy them to your S100 and browse with the file explorer to the cab files and click them.

Hi,
I have installed the Hornet 5.1b ROM that has Win6.1 as the OS. I am able to use all the hardware keyboard functions as standard i.e. the default letters and default symbol for each key.
The problem I have is that the "Sym" key found on teh Wizards spacebar will not cycle through the available symbols available for that specific key. I.e. If, on standard Windows Mobile device, I wish to enter the pound symbol (£) I would press the Fn key + the G letter that has the $ sign as it's default symbol. I would then press the Fn key and the Sym key to cycle through to change the symbol to £.
The actual Sym function on my current ROM does not work. There is no functionality at all for this button.
I do not want to flash to another ROM as I am very happy barring this one issue. I am wondering if anyone knows how to regain this Sym functionality? I have done plenty of searching and most results will refer to language changes - this is not what my problem.
Hope to get a helpful response to this thread.
Cheers,
DocJ0nes
I just wanted to thank you because I never knew you could do that!
It works fine on my custom WM6.0 ROM.
OK on WM6.5
Just to remark that sym function works fine on my Qtek 9100 h/w keyboard running WM6.5. I'm using XDA2's (Haseeb's) ROM.

Glad to help at least
How is the 6.5 ROM? I'm reluctant to try it as my tests with converted language ROMS in the past have not been fun.
Anyone else know a solution to my problem...?

Well, in general workable. Slow in messaging start-up, but otherwise like a heavily-loaded 6.1 Well worth the "sacrifice" in my case. I use Spb Mobile Shell v.3.0 and have disabled CHome.
Hi All,
Can one of you guys send me a UK version of the sym.txt file found in the root of the windows directory on your wizard. The sym.txt may have a 4 digit number in the filename, this is the one I need.
I would like to compare the file you have with a working "Sym" button configuration and hopefully fix mine myself.
PM me for my email address if you are interested in helping me
Ta,

Like everyone else, I thank you for telling us about the feature. I always wondered what "sym" was supposed to do. It also does accent marks. =]
I'm pretty sure I don't have a UK sym.txt and I don't know where to get one, but here is my sym.txt if you want to compare anyways. It works, but I think it is WWE:
