I have recently bought a Qtek 2020 and I have applied the registry hack to make visible the Extended_ROM area.
Now I would like to edit which CABs the system install after an hard reset but, to my surprise :shock:, the area appears as read-only (error code 19).
Do have I to make other registry modifications to make the Extended_ROM writable? I am using ROM 1.03.00 USA.
TIA
ROM == Read only memory
you can write or delete rom
but in many cases you can flash it
if you make your own cooked ROM and
update the ppc2003 os of your xda2
Please, study the stuff you don't know before posting obvious things!

but the config.txt is not in rom
so you are not chaning or writing in the rom
you are just chaning which files in the rom
the system access
just got confused about the way you asked the question
RAM/ROM?
Hi I would like to know, is your Qtek 2020 has 128M and 64ROM :?: ??
How much did you buy it and where? :roll:
Best regards,
Paf
Hi, Yes to both questions . You can buy it at :http://www.mobilkompagniet.dk/default.asp?Action=Details&Item=1820

What the hell are you saying??? Config.txt is on Extended_ROM like Autorun.exe and various CABs.
I suggest you to read again the article I have linked (http://www.ppcw.net/index.php?itemid=1642) and leave space for replies to people that really own and know the Qtek 2020.
Byez
I didn't have a config.txt in MY rom.
Luckily another user (props to him) figured out that if you prefix the names of your cab files with Default_ (default underscore) and make a config.txt they will autoload on hard reset.

You miss the key point of my message: Extended_ROM is read-only in the Qtek 2020. Stop. No way to add any prefix, "Default_" or whatever you want.
Any Qtek 2020 owner out ther that could confirm this? Any XDA-Developers team guy that _know_ how storage disk are mounted by Windows CE and could suggest a (registry?) trick?
Thanks, byez
he is right with saying:
I do have the same issue:
"You miss the key point of my message: Extended_ROM is read-only in the Qtek 2020. Stop. No way to add any prefix, "Default_" or whatever you want. "
same here. read only can't delete or add anything.

It seems my XDA2 has this problem too (but some other XDA2 don't have this problem
I have an O2 XDAII and cannot modify anything in Extended_Rom too
HI,
Anyone that have fix same workaround for this problem?
I have Qtek 2020 . I´m unabel to make changes in the Extended_Rom
JoseF
Hi guys; i also would be interested in such a fix for my french rom Qtek2020.
Thanking you all in advance, i remain, Arnaud

I had a hard time to upgrade and modify my xda2 so I decided to make a small tutorial for everyone with the information’s I found on the forum. It’s not perfect but it could help.
Thank's to every one who made all this possible!!
Before starting I recommend every one to make a back-up of your rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4608
1- Extended Rom:
Your XDA2 has an Invisible Extended Rom in the device containing the operator’s configuration files and software.
Modifying it will allow you to customize the boot image and to choose the programs you wish to install during the setup of the device.
To show the extended rom on your device your need to apply this small hack and then open your file explorer:
http://www.ppcw.net/index.php?itemid=1638
2- Files contained in the Extend Rom:
Broadcast_WWE.sa.CAB:
Seems to only set the CellBroadcast setting to enabled or disabled. (I guess this refers to the Reception of News via SMS by selecting channels of interested. Quite expensive I think and only interesting for phones that do not have any other capabilities of receiving and displaying information).
T-Mobile NL sets it on, with O2 it's switched off.
CallerIDRC11_WWE_1.5.sa.CAB:
Installs the CallerID application from IA Style and the Photo Contacts extension. There are other programs that are able to provide this functionality but I use it.
CameraRC131_WWE_1.5.sa.CAB:
The camera application for taking pictures and recording videos. AFAIK there is currently no alternative to this one, you should leave it in your ROM.
GPRSMonitor_WWE.sa.CAB:
Includes the GPRS Monitor from SPB Soft. Very useful I would recommend it unless you aren't going to use GPRS anyway.
MIDI56.sa.CAB:
RingTone plugin player. Allow you to play back RingTones in the following formats: mid,3gp,mp4. Also seems to register the audio/midi MIME type for playback of midi files directly from Internet Explorer.
By default the XDA can play back only wav and wma audio files (AFAIK)
MMS1507_WWE.sa.CAB:
Installs the Arcsoft MMS application for composing and sending MMS messages.
VideoMMS.sa.CAB (not contained in Qtek):
Installs the "Video MMS.exe" file into the Windows folder. When you start it you are in camera mode immediately and after you have recorded a picture or video you get into MMS composition mode.
This seems to be just an easier way to compose MMS messages since the main MMS Application (see above) is already able to compose MMS messages.
OEM_AKU1_WWE_4AP.sa.CAB (named OEM_4AP_WWE.CAB in Qtek ROM)
Installs the following files: GPRSAuthentication.exe, BTSetting.exe, STK.exe and WModem.exe
I am not sure if these are customized versions or if the normal ROM doesn't contain them. Well perhaps not because these are specific to the Phone edition so they can't be present in the main ROM, maybe they are contained in the Radio ROM, but probably they are only contained here, meaning you shouldn't remove this cab file.
OEM_WWE_03120301.sa.CAB (named OEM_WWE_03122301.sa.CAB in Qtek ROM)
Installs files for Bluetooth: AudioGW.dll, BthASPlugIn.dll, rilgsm.dll, Serial3.dll and Wavedev.dll. Also contains the new feature of mapping a (dynamic) serial port for BT.
I think you should not remove it.
TM_phone_class10.CAB (not contained in Qtek):
Installs several registry settings regarding phone functionality. (See my other post regarding this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=5539)
TMCOMREG.sa.CAB (not contained in Qtek):
Contains some of the settings contained in the previous one anyway. I'm not sure if it does anything else but I don't think so.
TMD_AP_NL.sa.CAB (not contained in Qtek):
Implements several settings specific to T-Mobile (NL): Restricts video types for MMS. Adds connection and gateway settings for MMS connection via T-Mobile NL. Adds a T-Mobile profile to GPRS Monitor.
I would not install this cab unless you live in NL!
TMD_NL.sa.CAB (not contained in Qtek):
Sets the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\3rdversion\MSYSTEM1 value to the provider name.
Not required!
TMDNLCustomize.sa.CAB (not contained in Qtek):
Adjusts all the "theming" stuff: Changes colors, installs Today-theme, installs T-Mobile Dialpad, sets T-Mobile ringtone.
If you don't like you xda2 look like a pink pig you should leave this out.
(You can extract single items from the cab file if you like)
t-mobile_shortcuts_only(UK).PPC2002_ARM.CAB (not contained in Qtek):
Contains some strange things that seem to me rather useless: "WebDisplayText t-zones", "T-Mobile Resetter.exe", "T-Mobile PIE Launcher.exe", "TMobileWebToday.dll", "T-Mobile Homepage Plugin".
I wouldn't install this one!
Version_AKU1.sa.CAB (Version_AKU1_160.sa.CAB in Qtek):
Seems to only set the version number of the extended ROM in the registry.
3- Modifying and editing your Extended Rom:
Most of the latest XDA2 have a write protected Extended Rom
A) For NOT Write Protected Extended Rom:
If your XDA2 Extended Rom is not write protected just add the new files you want, you can find on the forum many different extend rom files (O2, T_Mobile, Orange) and kitchen your own extended Rom by adding the cab files directly in the Extended_rom directory and soft reset.
B) For Write Protected Extended Rom:
The only way for the moment (until we find a way to make the rom writable) is to use the upgrade programs used by the operators and ER2003Edit program.
1)- Download
http://www.c1au.com/iMatePDAROMS/ruu15283.zip
or
http://www.clubimate.com/Support/ruu113sku1.zip
2) Simply unpack the complete T-Mobile Rom update file (it's a zipped EXE) into a folder.
There you will find these 6 files:
- HimaClearJumpCode.exe
- HimaGetDeviceData.exe
- HimaUpgradeUt.exe
- ms_.nbf <----- this is the file which holds Ext Rom!
- NK.nbf (main rom)
- Radio_.nbf (radio rom)
3) Delete the other *.nbf files to prevent updating the full XDA2/MDA2 rom. You only need "ms_.nbf" and the "*.exe" files!
4) Now modify the ms_.nbf with the tool softworkz kindly provided.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/ER2003Edit
5) After this, install the modified ext-rom to your XDA2/MDA2 by starting "HimaUpgradeUt.exe" and follow the instructions!
6) If you get a country code error during the install you will need to modify the country code included in the ms_.nbf file
- Download xda2nbftool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=5563
- Put xda2nbftool.exe in the same folder as your ms_.nbf file
- Run xda2nbftool.exe from Command Prompt and type the following command
xda2nbftool.exe -so O2 -v ms_.nbf
Replace O2 by your operator’s name (ex: orange, O2 etc)
It should now work!
cheers,
Yann
nice one Yann
Thanks
I had a go at doing the "if your extended rom is protected"
I down loaded the file
1)- Download
http://www.c1au.com/iMatePDAROMS/ruu15283.zip
and accidentally ran it.... I know I was stupid... I now have an I-Mate instead of a XDA - O2. Please help can I get the O2 back is there a programme that does the same as the one I just have used. It has changed every thing the radio stack, the other bits of software, I am just pleased it still works of calls.
I couldn’t find the indivuiual HimaUpgradeUt.exe programme any ware.
Please help I am really stuck at the minute!!
The bit I didn’t understand was the bit about unpack the exe. Which I now understand how to do. Although I have upgraded to Rom 1.52.00wwe, radio version 1.06.01, I can haply say I have the original O2 rom back in place with additional programmes installed in the Ex-Rom. I had a fair bit of space so I popped some music files in as well!!!!
Thanks for all the help!!!!
thanks yann for the perfect summary
as newby i needed something clear like this to dare my first rom changes, and i successfully did!
it would be even more perfect if also somehow the program settings/passwords could be cooked in/restored from the extended rom. i searched the forum but could not find any hints.
Are there methods for this ?
Perhaps a silly question, but I'm fairly conservative when it comes to messing around with my device.
How do you find out or know if your Ext ROM is write protected or not? I know that I can add applications to my Ext ROM and it does not seem like I should be able to do that if it's write protected, but then again I'm not sure if this matters.
Ed
ed, if you can copy files to your ext-rom via activesync, it is per definition not write-protected.
your not that conservative, because you already run a tool or edited the registry to be able to see the ext-rom
ronald,
Well I guess you are right I do like to play around, as I get more comfortable doing so. It is this Forum, guys like you, and some other forums that have made this possible for me to do. For some reason I'm more comfortable in general hacking around a desktop pc than a PPC.
I thought my Ext ROM must not be write protected. When I deleted the TMD files, described here as useless, I got the message that they were read only, but they did go away from the Ext ROM Folder. I do not notice a big difference, however, nor did it free up that much memory. I was thinking that I might need to do more then this. Do I?
So basically, if my Ext ROM is not right protected, and I have been already loading programs into the Ext ROM, I’m pretty much at the place people are trying to get with the Ext ROM Cook ER...Edit. Is that correct or am I missing something here?
Ed
Ed,
I do not like flashing rom (or bios) on either my desktop or PDA (if not absolute sure to fix bugs). However flashing the PDA's ext-rom can basically not screw up the PDA because you don't touch the OS, so I flashed the ext-rom to get familiar with the PDA flashing in general (and also to have a restore of my standard used software after a hard-reset).
About your ext-rom; I do not recognise your situation. I would say if it is read-only the file will not disappear (like with my PDA).
I did notice while editing the ext-rom file for flashing that the file is fixed ~16MB, regardless of which cab's are included or deleted.
Maybe this is the same effect that you see when deleting the file in the ext-rom ???????? (although I can imagine both effects have no relation)
ronald
Camera Programs
Okay,
I made a custom ROM with the following programs:
CAB: \Extended_ROM\CameraRC131_WWE_1.5.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\CallerIDRC11_WWE_1.5.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\MMS1507_WWE.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\GPRSMonitor_WWE.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\Version_AKU1.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\OEM_AKU1_WWE_4AP.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\OEM_WWE_03120301.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\VideoMMS.sa.CAB
Awesome, alot less bloat, but.... Camera doesn't work.. Application says Camera is not a valid Pocket PC application. :: grumble ::
Did I miss something?? Camera.exe is there, but doesn't work
Brandon
My Ext ROM is not write protected, and I'm able to run applications in the EXT ROM Folder. I deleted the 2 TMD and the T-Mobile cab files, but I have not nticed a big difference, nor is my GPRS back to always on, which it should be now.
Perhaps the device requires another hard reset without these cab files in place prior to the changes taking actual effect. Does anyone know if my assumption is accurate about the required hard reset?
Ed
what dictates if the ExtROM is write protected or not? is it the version? or the hardware itself? or a mix of the version with the OS checks?
cuz i believe the ROM version is dictated by the version_AKU1.sa.cab. does that mean we can hack the cab (or use a diff version) to disable the write protection?
i'm using a himalaya btw.
I have a question or two.
I'd also like to know if it is possible to modify CAB files so they install an application and then also put in your purchased key or serial depending on the application so it's already registered to yourself. It seems like it must be possible because the GPRS Monitor on the T-Mobile Extended ROM is already Registered when you try and register it yet I was under the impression it normally has to have a key entered to turn it into the full version with no limits.
This would be great if this was possible, if it's a key file then it's simple to copy it over but how about automatic registry entries? Are these done similar to Windows .reg files? Does anyone have any info if a .reg file can be make and run from the Extended ROM to make changes to the registry? This would also allow me to key in a few other things I'd like presetup.
Is there a way to see what registry changes a CAB file makes other than from purchasing MagicCAB? Is there a free program like this? It seems like a reasonable program from the info but I don't want to spend 10 dollars on a program I might only use once or twice.
Acutally, one more while I'm here. Does anyone have a CAB installation version of CabInstl which puts a shortcut in the Programs or an easy way for me to make that? I've set it up so it will copy the EXE in manually along with a shortcut but I've yet to try it. I think it should work OK I imagine, just might be neater and have an uninstall if it's in a CAB format?
Can you delete files from the extended ROM script? Just so I can clear out a few folders of things I don't want in there when I do a hard reset?
Thanks for all your help. I'm looking forward to making a super kick ass Extended ROM for myself, I'm half way there
Updating the indirect way
Had a few problems with the updating process... and thought i would explain how I got around them!
First I updated to the standard 16007DE ROM
Then I installed the Extended Rom Viewer, and then because it is protected, i copied the contents to my HDD.
Then i tried to open the Rom update from T-mobile with the Extended ROM editor, but kept on getting file access errors The only one i could open was the NL 13006 version. So I changed the splash screen, deleted the origianl contents, and then inserted the contents from my updated original Extended ROM, as well as a few other bits that i could find, IE the extended ROM viewer. It is updating at the moment, So I hope it all works.
I have a few questions though!
Does anyone know a way in which I can automatically install a few themes, and a few ringtones? I have a few MIDI files that i want to be installed into the windows\rings folder, and the themes need to go in a folder called themes in My Documents. I also wanted to ask if there is a way to extract the CAB from another program, for instance Voice Commander. It is an MSI, but only works in windows!!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Greets from Hannover, Germany
Juggs :?
Is this going to work:
- Download ER2003Edit
- Download the O2 XDA2 ROM 1.60.50
- Download the T-Mobile MDA2 ROM 1.60.36
- Remove O2 apps i don't want to use
- Add applications from T-mobile rom which i want to use
- Change ROM provider from O2 rom to to T-Mobile
- Save new O2 ROM and upgrade
But... I want to add custom ring tones to contacts, and if possible also want to add custom picture. Also my camera must be able to work. Which software do i need for this?
Because.. All i want to upgrade is today theme to O2's and also the software to 1.60.50... Does the O2 rom also has an "TMDNLCustomize.sa.CAB" ?

2 questions for you,
1. how do i know whether my rom is the editable 1 or the non editable one?
2. I tried option A, just mergly adding the CAB files into the EXTROM but... when the hard reset was perform it did not install the CAB files i added in? what could be the prob i know there is a "autorun.exe" in it but i dunno whether will it affect the process. I also notice a "config.txt" in the extrom, tried editing it but it seems that nothing happen
Reason for adding the cab files is because i was using a 1.72.00 rom with radio stack 1.12 but intend to change it to radio stack 1.14 and also try cooking up my own rom in the ktchen but after doin so its like nothing happen. need some advice for cooking roms in the kitchen been searching the forum... found a few but its all talking about Linux platform.
Hi Kelvin,
1)
The way to know if your rom is not writ protected is if you see a folder called extended_rom in the root of XDAII and if you can add files in it.
If not, there’s a nice tool to make the extended_rom visible and to make it writable.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8422&highlight=extended+rom+hide
2) The config.txt is made to lunch the programs in the extended rom when you hard reset the XDA or when it starts for the first time.
You just need to put the cab files in your extended_rom folder and edit the config.txt this way:
Exemple:
I added the cab file vxIPConfig.ppc3_arm.CAB in the folder extended_rom
and added this line in config.txt
CAB: \Extended_ROM\vxIPConfig.ppc3_arm.CAB
Cheers,
Yann
hi yann,
i tried doing that way as i figured out that config is like a startup "prg" to actually start the programs installing when hard reset is performed. But the thing is i cannot make the programs i added in the install after the hard reset is perform. I don't know why but the rest of the cab files can be done. Do adding of all this cab files into the ROM consider cooking ROM??? not really fimilar with the terms of cooking ROM unless that is the way.
I have a Qtek 2020 from Dubai (the middle east), my Qtek has a 1.66.00WWE Rom and I want to upgrade it to 1.72WWE, I found a ROM for the iMate, is this ROM compatible (by compatible I mean will it work if I start the installer) or do I need to do something to.
I got the Rom from here
Code:
http://www.mtekk.com.au/browse/page423.html
Yes you can upgrade without problems, then, eventually, edit the extended rom to get rid of iMate unnecessary stuff (if there is any).

ther is already exist 1.72 original Rom for Qtwk2020
in this post page 9
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8403&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=200
Hi Hussain,
Did you install the ROM. I too have same Qtek2020 and have downloaded the relavent Rm but would like to know if any one else has tried it and their experiences. :?:
Also I would like to put some of my standard software in ext ROM. How can I make cab files for the same and also put in registration info. If not directly at least a text file with my ids and regcodes so that I can hard reset even away from my PC.
:?
Hi "wizards",
I've just registered even if I spent last two week looking around the whole forum gathering "precious" information...
I'm cooking my own ExtROM (better, I'm "tuning" it with various .CABs I need).
I'm wondering if there is any solution (or workaround) to the following:
- is there any way to create a directory within the commands available in config.txt ?
- is there maybe the way to move a complete directory from one source to another (thus solving the above problem...) ?
- is there any way to use the CPY1 and CPY2 commands to get some files stored inside a MMC/SD card and move them around the XDA2 ?
I mean I have an Italian version of the device and the MMC/SD is called "Scheda di memoria" with spaces within the name...
I've tried using brackets with no success...
- is there any way (switch, etc.) to install a .CAB in a MMC/SD instead of the main memory ?
I know I could gather only NEGATIVE asnwers to the above questions, nevertheless I thought is was worth asking... :wink:
BTW: I think the registration process should be updated with the newer versions available for the XDA2: actually I'm running v1.72.04ITA dated 04/13/04 with Radio v1.14.00 (ExtROM "was" 1.72.128). Am I the only one with this ? :shock:
These are the commands that I know off:
EXEC:<exe command>
CAB:<cab to install>
CPY1:<source file>
CPY2:<destination>
RST: Reset
Not sure if there are any more.... ??
I have an answer for myself, in the meaningwhile...
The third question is stupid...
I was trying to get the CPY1 & CPY2 commands to copy from the Memory Card ("Scheda di memoria" in Italian) while at the same time I was trying to have the PPC create a non existant directory in the hope the PPC could imagine my desires... :lol:
Indeed SPACES within the command may be present as I'm actually copying files from the MMC/SD called "Scheda di memoria" to the main PPC memory with no troubles at all...
Obviously, the paths must already exist... the batch does not create them...
My first two and the fourth questions are still pending... 8)
Thank you for your efforts...

Anyone know how to translate this ROM 2.20Chinese to English...
so we can have wmp10 in our XDA, and other features that is better than 2.06 and 2.02 ROM....
mamaich : can you teach us how to translate the english langguage, or you can upload this rom 2.20 that have been translate to english in this forum... big hope
Or the original rom of 2.20 CHS because when i try to download through the link you provided.... I always cannot completed the download and that file was not on your website (when i try to visit the page directly).
thx in advance
I also have mailed some days ago to Mamaich asking for some info about Win2k3se and Wmp10 translation..
Now we all waiting..
The test version of English ROM made from chinese 2.20 is uploaded to http://mamaich.kasone.com/imate/en.rar
archive contains nk.nba file that should be processe d with xda2nbftool and flashed.
I've uploaded mkrom toolkit used to create this ROM to: http://mamaich.kasone.com/imate/mkrom_220chs.rar (18.5 mb)
Original toolkit is taken from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/mkrom
To use it you'll need Linux or CygWin enviroment (I use cygwin), Perl, hex editor (I use HIEW). You should place new files to files1...files5 directories. Here is the maximal size these directories can be:
Files1: 655360 bytes
Files2: 1245184 bytes
Files3: 262144 bytes
Files4: 524288 bytes
Files5: 1114112 bytes
Toolkit would not warn you if this size is exceeded and would produce dead ROMs.
Files1 folder should contain mxip_MYXIP_100.rgu file which is a modified registry. CreateEngLinks.exe is a program that runs after hardreset and creates english folders and links. I was unable to patch the initobj.dat and default.fdf files in ROM, so I had to create this program.
cfg\os.nb1 is a "base" ROM image with some files renamed. You should not touch default.fdf, initobj.dat and kernel.rgu
When you run ./a.sh file it would produce a new ROM named nk.nb1. Use any hex editor to place this file to offset 0x40040 of NK.NBA I've posted in the prev. message and modify it's CRC and encrypt:
xda2nbftool.exe -c -u NK.nba
xda2nbftool -x NK.nba NK.nbf 0x20040304
Use this toolkit at your own risk. Addresses in ./a.sh are taken from 2.20.07 chinese simplified ROM and should be modified to be used with other ROMs. You may completely destroy your device if this toolkit is used incorrectly.
Hey mamaich,
that's perfect! THANX
Let me try it now...

Hi Mamaich... can you tell me what is the difference about this two files or links.
1. http://mamaich.kasone.com/imate/chineese_se.rar
2. http://mamaich.kasone.com/imate/en.rar
Is the number 1 totally 100% Chinnese? and the number 2 is 80% English, 20% Chinnese?

Hi,
for your convenience I just created regular upgrade package out of mamaich's nk.nba file.

It is Country ID and Operator ID INDEPENDENT, however it will change your device to Qtek + WWE after upgrade.
If you don't like that, just edit .nbf files yourself.

Radio version: 1.18.00
Extended ROM is NOT included, because I believe, that anyone can build his own Ext ROM to suit his personal taste...

What are the major differences between the WM2003se Chinese-to-English ROM vs the available other 3 English ROMs
I suppose it can read/write chinese sms without the use of 3rd-party program?
How's the bluetooth performance? Still has the vanishiing Headset icon on the Today screen?

i upgraded with the 2.20 file, anything runs fine, except, i can't turn on my qtek2020 with any button, neither the power button, nor the application buttons. only way to turn it on is doing a soft-reset or getting an incoming call..
what went wrong with the update??
regards epo
Great work mamaich and buzz_lightyear!!! Unbelievable work the both of you!!!
I have not yet tried and will do so in due time, but I am fairly certain that it is yet another accomplishment to be highly commended...

Hi all, few questions ...
1. Does this ROM still have the hide&seek effect with the BT profile plug-in ?
2. The other 2 versions have only 3 alarms for the clock, and I really miss the 4th one in 1.72
3. It took me some time to localize the 2.06 one on my I-mate, did any one try this ROM with the arabic language ?
The MOST stable rom from among SEs
Hi,
Thanks Guys!
This is the most stable one from all SEs.
To make it more stable, turn off your radio when doing soft-resets and don't install or edit any language registry values! And don't use software that works with them, such as LENG and other.
Does anyone know how to enable russian language input mode now?
Rom: 2.20CHS
Radio: 1.18
Ext: 1.72-IMATE
Some Anomalies?
Hi!
When I open Programs -> File Explorer -> My Documents, I see some folders with square boxes as folder names. Any purpose for these folders? They are empty. Can I delete them?
One thing I found is that when my phone is off my O2 II will soft reset if I tap the GPRS icon on the Today screen top bar. Is this normal or am I getting a new soft reset button?
Thanks
:roll:
More square boxes
Again, when I go to Programs -> File Explorer -> Program Files I see a square box folder. Another thing is that there're two WMP folders. One of them is Windows Media PlayerCS which on opening display square boxes
Next, is if I go to Windows I see a square box folder right on the first line. If you tap on it it'll open with more square box folders and the icons - Help, Calendar, Phone, Contacts and Messaging come with square box names.
I presume all these square boxes are in chinese not properly translated yet.
Hope to see an updated version soon
Thanks
Hi,
I see square boxes in the "Connections" settings panel too.
Good work!
Thanks,

Hi all, i normally make custom roms for our devices but am having issues with this one, its about to be the 1st Hermes in space [coz i am gonna strap it to a firework and send it skyward ]. I have the ExtROM unhider, i remove all the rubbish, i add my custom read-only cab's [all signed btw] edit my config.txt, then hard reset the device. All looks ok on the loading stage, you see my cabs being called and run, but they move on to the next file far to fast, and when i check the programs installed after, its not there, so its skipping the cab files. No errors on load, nothing, if u run the files manually they work but i did noticed they say "Unknown Publisher" on the certificate part of the install. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to overcome this please.
Thank you in advance

Hermes startup is full security mode. Your CABS need to be signed by a trusted root CA and you might even need the more secure provider level signature (although I'm not sure of this).
V1605
Hey EViLOPTiC,
IK see you are having the same problem as I'm having with my V1605.
I had a Qtek 9000 before did the ext Rom modification had no problem, I had a Signed disable security cab which I run in the cab first then all the another after no problem.
Now with this pda the signed cab still says it is not signed I've tryed anothe 3 another disable security cab but with the same issue.
All we need is a signed cab file that well modify the register 0000101a from 1 to 0 put that in the Extended Rom followed by all the another cab file we want to install.
Where can we find this cab.
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP US PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Thanks
