Hello, first of all i must say that im very new to windows mobile, and Qtek 9000 is my first machine. It still uses the MW5 (didnt change anything) and in my searches i could find that there is Lots of MW5 and 6.1 created by users.
My main question is which ROM you guys recommend? Im looking for one that could turn it more useful with stability.
Other thing, i read something about bootloader g3/g4, what is it?
I hope you guys that have or had a Qtek 9000 can help me, recommending a good or the best system for it.
My best regards.

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 am new here and to windows mobile. I just purchased a HTC Tornado and I am looking for a thread that tells me how to upgrade it from WM5 to WM6. The problem is, when I search for HTC Tornado all the threads show a different Tornado phone then what I have. I have the HTC Tornado from Tmobile. Would I upgrade it the same way you upgrade the Tornado I keep seeing in this section?? Do I have a older model or something? Any help would be greatly appreciated! I attached a picture of the Torando that I have.
Thanks
You have a regular Tornado, simply the music edition. It's identical to mine and you can use without problem any of the WM6 that are available here
The insides are the same as the tornado, T-Mobile just puts their case on it. Many companies do the same.
I have the exact same version. Also called SP5m for the music edition. Be *very* careful to burn only those ROMS made for the Tornado. HTC Faraday for example looks very similar and many people have "bricked" their phone (made it totally useless) by installing that ROM.
Good luck.
Thanks for the help guys.. Anyone know where I can view a help section for newbs? I take it ROMS are programs?? And when you say my Tornado is the music edition, the other tornado can't play music? Can I update from WM5 right to WM6?
Thanks
It is the same HTC Tornado as any other. It has the exact same specs and features. The only differenece is the case. You can use any ROM for HTC Tornado.
other tornado don't have special buttons(play, next, previous), but they play music just the same as your SP5m does. ROMs are programs to upgrade your OS(operating system), it's like changing the PC OS from XP to Vista having a special software to help you do that more easily, there is no forum/section for newbs, as an advice, read all FAQs and other instructions here in Tornado section, and when you think you are ready - upgrade you WM5 to WM6, but if you aren't sure in smth better ask here before you make a step in nowhere..
good luck
Is there any big advantages to upgrade WM5 to WM6? Hard to do for a newb?
WM6 is lot better than WM5. I like it lot more. And it is not hard to upgrade to WM6. Basically you just need to superCID your phone, format BINFS and run the ROM Update Utility. Read this for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324557
Thanks for the help. My phone should be here anyday now. Can't wait to mess around with it Is there anywhere anyone knows of where I can get newbie info on all the terms such as SuperCID, BINFS etc..
try the wiki. Look at the links at the top of the forums.
Hello everyone,
i've posted it on the Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking section but maybe it is more indicated to be here... I'm new here...
sorry for posting this noob questions here, I see that you all are discussing software development and stuff, but it is the only place I've found to ask about it.
My situation: I have a Dell Axim X51v wich is still on warranty and CompleteCare (until march 2009!). It has a WM5 A04 Portuguese Rom wich is very unstable and quite lame (I don't like the system in portuguese!) and I'm looking forward to use the WM6 Football Rom, that everywhere I read says its very nice.
The fact is: If I had to call Dell for support, I'll need to give them the Ax with the WM5 Portuguese rom. I really consider this since the device isn't brand new and if something happens I don't want to loose it.
So, what I need to know is how (and if it is possible of course) to get the image of my Ax as it is now, to store in a safe copy on my pc or a cd, upgrade to Football's WM6 (wich version, btw? I see that there are RTM and Preview A06 on the thread) and then eventually get it back to my current rom, if I need to use the warranty. I know that the upgrade part is well documented around the internet, but the downgrade to the same or similar system is the major doubt.
I'll be grateful for any help. I'm new to all this and there are lots of knowledge around. Never had any experience flashing, just upgraded my ROM one time with the official procedure from HP, on my old Ipaq.
Thanks!!
anyone here?
Hi,
I work as a support analyst at Dell headquarters.
I wanted to let you know that the A04 ROM for the Portuguese version of WMV 5.0 can be downloaded from our website. You can find it here:
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd&releaseid=R131773&SystemID=PDA_AXIM_X51&servicetag=&os=PPM&osl=BP&deviceid=7638&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=4&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=7&fileid=174977
That should help out. Let me know if you have any problems.

This is John again. After posting that link, I realized that the link was for the x51 ROM. Do NOT download that link!
The link to the x51v is here instead:
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R131772&SystemID=PDA_AXIM_X51&servicetag=&os=PPM&osl=BP&deviceid=7643&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=5&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=7&fileid=174968
Sorry for the confusion!

Thanks John!
If I run this brazilian WM5 rom "update" application of version A04, it will install on my X51v even if it has installed on it a more recent english WM6 rom?
If so, I don't have much to lose testing the hacked rom... of course, there is the risk of bricking it if I make the wrong procedure, but I guess that is well documented around here, right?
thanks again!
You should be able to flash the ROM, even if a more recent version is installed. You shouldn't be bricking your Axim by doing any of this.
Glad I could help!
all right!
I shall try the alternative roms then!
but, I am downloading this rom from dell:
http://support.dell.com/support/dow...-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=7&fileid=174968
it seems to be the right one since mine is X51v 624 mhz.
Hello people,
sorry for a typical bad/generic question, but i'm really lost on quantity of informations on internet about WM and HTC and UNIVERSAL and as "casual" user (my jasjar in ON now after months of non-use) I'm not sure what keywords to use to filter the results.
Question is: i have this old PDA, the i-mate JasJar, with the standard WM5 5.1.195 build 14847.2.0.0 Italian: how can i update with something nice (maybe WM6? is stable?) to make it a little more current? Alternative roms are stable enough or there is always the risk to transform the pda in a brick? Which one should I use, between the tide of endless versions?
Thanks very much.

Thanks Paisa!! jajajajaj
Have a great week!
Thank you all for the reply and for the advice about what rom to install. I'm reading the very nice wiki. Just 1 question: reflashing roms change the language? Thanks!
Agreed!
I'm also using Jasjar since last 3 years, and yet don't feel to replace it with anything new, even though memory and space is always an issue with the new upgrades..!
I' m using Tomal's ROM in 6.1..good one! But if you are looking for an Italian ROM I think Lucas has it.
in 6.0, I would vote for JWRight

Yes you can choose the languaje on the available ROM´s
Good luck,
I've been trying to work out whether I can (or not) upgrade my Magician (iMate Jam) to WM6.5, but found out 1) that search is (semi?)broken, and 2) that you guys use a hell of a lot of lingo that I don't understand.... So please, can someone tell me whether I can upgrade a Magician model to WM6.5, and if so, could you please point me to relevant tutorials/downloads? Hopefully I'd be able to understand them, it's not like I'm afraid to tinker.
TIA!
Welcome to forums
Have a deep read here:

Good luck,
Ok, it says I can do WM6.1 . It doesn't talk about 6.5 though. Any advice there? Or is it just too old? It IS my brother's old one.
If you cook your own ROM you can.

All is matter of reading and searching
have a look on your device section on the forum, perhaps someoene already have a 6.5 ROM
Here , R1 is 6.5. But it is for 128 machines only. To put a 6.5 on a 64 machine would leave so little ram, the phone would be unusable.
