Just downloaded the new ROM update for Qtek2020/XDA-II from O2..
I doesnt work, it says "error 120, country id error" and that the ROM image doesnt work with my Pocket PC
And in the PDF file it says that the upgrade only works for O2 UK customers... what about me? I bought my Qtek here in Copenhagen denmark? How can I get this upgrade?
The distributer of Qtek here in DK is as good as invicibel, so is the information/support...
Can anyone help?

Peter

you download the two ROM files (XDA II upgrade and XDA II launch ROM)
First, install the Launch ROM and your Qtek is flashing with the original O2 ROM. Then launch the XDA II upgrade and it's OK.
I done this opération with my Qtek (previously ROM 1.60WWE) and it works perfectly!
Hey!
Thank you very much for you reply!
i downloaded the Flash ROM, but the program seems to Quit after the little grey menu has been there saying that its checking my device?
Anyway nothing really happens after that... know what that could be?
Regards
It's strange, what is your ROM version?
Have you ever try a flash operation before?
No I havent.
My ROM version is 1.60.00WWE
and extRom version is 1.60.21
Damm!!
Now I got the ROM update intaller started... but unfortunatly it stopped after deleting my old ROM and showed an error message...And now the Qtek is completely dead... it just says "Serial v.1.02" in the dark display...
I tryied this one time before, also trying to update the ROM.... and the only thing to do is send it to the manufacturer and wait at least 2 weeks for them to reinstall everything.
Hm, well, I dont suppose anyone knows a trick to get it running again?
Regards
Peter
Ouch! I'm sorry for you.
Read this forum, but I believe that you can copy the ROM directly by the SD Card, but I do not know any more.
Try to change the title of the topic to ask an assistance.
I hope that all will be arranged
OK!
The above ROM has been released and I believe many users have already downloaded it.
Just to check whether:-
a) any problme faced during installation? Is the upgrading procedure straight forward?
b) any problem upgrading from WAXX ROM to this UK ROM?
c) any problme faced during upgrading from i-Mate v1.72 to this UK ROM?
d) other problems encountered?
Thanks for your feedback
ive downloaded both and tried had no problems so far try using file from here

RE
Hi Hobbit!

BTW, is the performance better than the WAXX ROM and the i-Mate v1.72 ROM?
Thanks

sorry was in different forum lol
I've uploaded ROMs here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12528
yep tried em both. no real noticable difference to the unofficial 1.72 ive been using for months. Looks like its new device time as no hope of further updates - unless someone knows differntly....
I have upgraded, no problems.......everything works fine !!
:lol:
RE
Just one question.
Is this upgrade solely meant for UK users?
I'm from the asian side. I just can't wait for myxda to release its asian version.
Any problem with my asian telco operators here?
Thanks
I just upgraded my XDA II to the O2 UK 1.72.187 release. It all went well. I previously had installed the i-mate 1.72 ROM.
I had used Activesync to do a full backup prior to upgrading, and I restored it after the upgrade. After a couple of soft resets, everything seems OK, including the Widcomm bluetooth stack I previously had installed.
So, although early days yet, everything seems OK
Only downside - in my opinion
I was using the asian ROM version 1.60.44 for the longest time without any problems, I just upgraded to the UK ROM version 1.72.181 and the only downside I noticed, as of now, is that the clear type sucks, its just like the 1.72 of the i-Mate, of the 1.66 of the Asian O2. It was way better in the old ROM I was using.

Thanks DCS for the link. My ClearType is A OK again now
My pleasure
Just upgraded to the image with blackberry version on a CPW xdaII runing 1.66 - result good
1st I backed up with version 3.7.1 of active sync
then I hard reset
then I closed all the programs and icons in the system tray
First it failed with usb left on the screen.
I did a soft reset and re ran the upgrade program again and all is well.
I am now restoring the backup, haha which worked except for a few files which I skipped, these were the same files that were skipped on a normal restore.
Now my destinator satnav is working and that is tied to the machine so all in ace
what have I gained, I don't really known, looking forward to the fax though,
where is it?
Simon
Additional download.
You will find it in the Fax software in the XDAIIAppSuite uploaded by The Hobbit in his post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12526

Do you try ClearType Tuner in this ROM, the file is cttune.cpl.CAB
I think it's another way to correct the cleartype problem beside the dcs' way? Is it right?
is there anyone got problems like mine?I stuck with SMS, i did send one sms to my number and it takes 4 hour to delivery it and when i go to sent box i didnt see any sms that i have sent???? do you knows that and can you tell me how to fix it?
From Inbox check Tools/Options/Keep copy of sent mail in Sent folder
As for the four hour delay - I get that sometimes - I put it down to O2 network.
I have the 2.20.07CHS ROM installed but I found some strange folders and the font letters are outside the display (in some screens).
Anyone have the 2.20.07 WWE?
I can't find it...
It exists??? :?
Anyone have the same problems I reported?
:idea: <Sorry for my poor english!> :idea:
RE
Your version is translated from Chinese. Due to the fact that its NOT 100% translated you'll get those strange looking folders/boxes/fonts which are actually in Chinese if you've a Chinese software installed to see them.

Ya! I know that. But I don't like it this way.
There are a 2.20WWE?
Is better to downgrade?
Someone can tell me, please?
There are (or not) a Himalaya 2.20WWE ROM?
Now, ROM 2.20 WWE does not exist.
It doesn't occur in this time.
Still wait for some operator to release it.
So, what the best WWE ROM?
2.02t or 2.06?
I like the Media Player 10 but I hate that chinese characters appearing all the time.
why dont you try the 2k5.. it does have the wm10 and got alot of changes (*better in my opinion, still have some bugs on hardware/soft) but its only minor for me..
make a try.. :wink:
WM2005 experience
I have tryed the WM2005 but seems to me that is a buggy OS.
Don't you think?
Don't try with 2k5, that's will not satify or you try.
hmm.. not for my experience.. my 2k5 is loaded with programs... and works brilliant.
sad part, i must keep stopping all programs manualy using Running Programs all the time.:-(
:wink: I will try again! :roll:
WM2005 need some tunning, right? :?
Something about the ROM.
MSN Messenger.
Synchronization issues by USB.
Anything else? :idea:
It is possible to fix those problem by a patch.
those "strange folders" are "Start menu", "Startup", "Favourate" and "Program" in \windows
You can change those folder to its english name however you must find them in registry and change them too.
some registry need to be translated such as :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Destinations]
you can guss they are "Internet settings" from "Internet ??" etc
Issue of font size can be fixed in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\SYSFNT]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\V1\FontAlias]
However i doubt there is anyone still interested in this version.
I dislike some bugs of it which I don't know solution.
such as taping connection icon will lead to hang up if flight mode is on.
I like some program in this CHS extrom such as battery indicator and that flight game.
2.20 ROM
I am just wondering, does anyone know where to find the 2.20 ROM file? Either in Chinese or English?

i don't think that acer has windows mobile 2003 se PHONE EDITION and nobody can take rom from one device to another (not even from alpine to himalaya) so it would be useless

That's it! I'm trying WM5 again (since two weeks ago).
ROM 1.60a is great and I recommend it to everybody.
This version just lacking one thing: a 32MB permanent storage (it have 2x16MB now).
Hi everybody, im kinda new on the pocket word so here come some noob questions:
This rom can be used on my Qtek 2020i ? (UNI_QTEK_13077_176_10900_WWE_Ship.exe)
what is the best way to upgrade my qtek 2020i to mobile 5 + AKU2? (English)
I want to do a full backup of the original roms also and save the backup at my PC (i got a 256MB SD for that). Any good procedure for that?
Thx in advance,
Leandro.
Hey,
Newbie here. I own two smartflips bought from i-mate hq (Dubai). However, i'm now in Aus. WM6 looks nice and i must say, great work and appreciation for those who cook up these ROMs. However, i noticed that all these ROMs start off from either Cingular or QTEK or HTC. why leave i-mate ROMs behind guys? Anyways, before i try out any of these ROMs, i just don't want to end up killing my phone. I've searched high and low for i-mate stock ROMs (WM5). I saw one in a post but that was like WWE or something which i'm not sure what it means. I don't want to register on i-mate and do loads of form-filling and IMEI filling just to get some ROMs. Anyone have any idea of where i can acquire some 'stock' WM5 i-mate ROMs (not qtek or cingular or htc or wotever).
The other thing.. i haven't SuperCID-ed my smartflip. I tried to get to the bootloader (for no reason.. just experimenting) by pressing the keys n all but it doesn't show up. it goes to the i-mate screen.. then flashes an HTC logo and boots WM5. Once again my smartflip is Out-of-the box, hope that helps someone explaining the phenomena. i do have the i-mate CD that came with it. However didn't find and option to install Windows Mobile 5.0. I need a ROM to keep a backup in case i screw up. If anyone could help me obtain an i-mate WM5 ROM, it would be greatly appreciated.
Also, how would one find out the IPL and SPL of the smartflip? As i mentioned i wouldn't like to brick my phone. It is mentioned somewhere that the 3.06 or wotever IPL and SPL version are not capable of flashing through micro-sd card. Not sure but i think the 4.0 or wotever can flash through micro-sd card. Apart from the link(to files) posted in a thread, isn't there an 'official' way of getting to update the IPL and SPL?
Sorry for such a long post. One thing i must say, great work guys. I would like to suggest people to follow up on their threads. there was one 'bricked' post but the person said he found a solution but never posted what his solution was. It would be helpful if he could have posted the solution as it does help others. Apologies if i said anything wrong.
Thanks,
Dan.
You used to be able topick up Imate roms from ftp://ftp.clubimate.com
But they won't be nearly as good as the cooked Wm6 ones. Just follow the instruction and flash away.
(WWE means worldwide english)
Flash one of the cooked ones! I use Erofich's 6.1 and it's great.
WWE just means WorldWideEnglish as opposed to other languages.
Good luck
I have a SmartFlip upgraded with GnatGoSplat's WM6 ROM (Eurofich' WM6 is better but GPRS doesn't work): it works fast and without problems.

Thank you all!
Hi,
Thank you all for your responses. i-mate roms at imate ftp site is confirmed. Thanks unwired. The thing is i take calculated risks and have most info before i do some thing. so if i end up somehow bricking my phone, i will know what to do before dad kills me . Now i just need to update the IPL/SPL and get into bootloader to see if it works. Then gonna flash with WM6 or WM6.1. I just needed a stock ROM to keep as backup because its mentioned somewhere that if your phone is bricked, u can try to flash it using micro-sd card flashing. but that only works with stock ROMs if WM6 flashing fails. Anyways, thanks once again. i will keep you guys updated on my progress.. Thanks!
Best Regards,
Dan.

Where can one get the SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe? the superCID thread didn't mention where to get it or either i missed it... anyone out there to help me??
Thanks,

IPL/SPL
Hi,
Sorry for multiple questions. I still haven't been able to get into the bootloader by pressing the voice notes and camera and power on key. I'm still not sure how it goes. Do you have to hold the keys, press the power button and let go immediately of all the three keys or do you have to hold the power button for long with holding the voice and camera keys? i need to check which version of the bootloader i have to make sure it supports flashing from micro-sd. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Dan.
EDIT: I was also looking for some way to backup software from my current WM5 ROM. There are some apps that come in-built which i like. But since i don't have the .cab(s) i was wondering if there would be a way to backup software and later on install it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Out of a million tries, I only managed to get into the bootloader ONCE that way. Okay, I exaggerate, but I found it almost impossible to use RECORD, CAMERA, and POWER to get into bootloader. Instead, I've found with the phone OFF, press RECORD, CAMERA, and plug the USB connector into the PC while holding those buttons. It goes into Bootloader every single time that way.
You can back up the built-in apps, but it requires figuring out which files belong to which app, and also getting their registry entries. Then you can either manually copy all those files into the phone and manually import the registry entries, or make them into a cab file to automate it.
WOW.. thnx for that!
Yup! Worked like a charm! i have IPL/SPL 1.02 or wotever.. so i don't need to worry about micro-sd card flashing problems ( i hope i never need to use that in my life). So if it works this way.. i would recommend others who have bricked their phones and trying to flash it holding the record, and camera button while phone is off, plug it in the usb. As soon as i did that, Vista picked it up as a mobile device. the bootloader ( the screen sucks! what a dreadful combination of colors!) also shows a usb sign at the bottom. I hope this info helps those who bricked/killed their phone and were finding it hard to re-flash it. As it is mentioned in some thread... if wm6 flashing fails, u have to revert back to stock rom WM5 (cingular rom for cingular phone, i-mate rom for i-mate, etc) and then re-flash with WM6. I wonder if rom update utilities work when in bootloader connected to pc.
Once again, thanks for your reply GnatGoSplat. As for the apps, yea.. i know its bad. I did check over onto the i-mate site and found a file 'Arabic...' something. it didn't mention it as a rom so i'm hoping they are the software packages that come with the default middleast rom. You might have heard of 'Portableapps' on PCs. They are little beauties. Because the original windows and windows mobile are linked closely.. i might wonder if there could be a way to port those ( or even create your own) onto windows mobile. I know how to make portableapps so if you need any info, i think i could help unless someone knows better.
So where do i get the SDA_ApplicationUnlock file? Thanks.

Dan.

Hi,
Thanks for the file Erofich. Unfortunately, I've just been caught up with studies and hence will not be able to work on modding my i-mate until i get some free time. however, i'm still going to try to work on an 'Ultimate WM6 for Startrek Guide'.
Its just that its better for end-users because some of the information is scattered around and 'some' of the instructions are a bit hard to follow (no offense to anyone). If anyone has any concerns or is against my actions, please let me know.
