Hi,
I own a Qtek 2020 purchased in Dubai, U.A.E. in 2004.
I am experiencing trouble booting my Pocket PC. I was trying to upgrade my ROM version from 1.60.00WWE to 1.72.00WWE when my Laptop went into standby mode. The upgrade got interrupted and the software asked me to reset my device and place it in the cradle. When I reset my device, it shows the normal screen with Qtek written in the centre. It has the device information in the bottom right corner. It gets stuck here and does not proceed. Additionally, when I place it on the cradle, my laptop does not recognize it anymore.
I have the backup for it on the SD card which is inserted into it. However, I am unable to get to the Bootloader mode, probably, because I had disabled the camera button when i used the device the last time.
I need to know how I can repair my Qtek 2020 or any way that I can get it to start.
Your help shall be appreciated.

try push the power button, directional pad and the reset button all together to get into bootloader mode. sometimes u need to press it couple of times.
good luck

I have only had my XdaII for a month, but last week it locked up and upon a soft reset it took 5 minutes to get past the O2 screen, then there was no responce to any screen taps, i decided to do a full reset, once rebooted still no response to screen taps, so i couldnt calibrate the screen or go any further, i connected the xda to activesync this still worked fine and was responding normally. I then decided to reload the rom from myxda.com, biggest mistake as it crashed halfway through now it just says Serial v1.06 or USB v1.06 if its in the cradle, now before i get bashed for just asking this question the same as a lot of other people have, i have spent the last 4 days go over this site trying anything that relates to getting any image back onto my xda, nothing has worked i have tried any nbf or nb1 image i can find on here with orginal or modified himaupgradeut.exe same response every time error 100: incorrect device type, i have tried any image i get can get onto an SD card, they either dont boot or wont allow upload, so my question is i have seen several people on here ask about bring v1.06 back from the dead but so far noone has had any instructions on how to this when a normal boot isnt possible.
I don't know if this is any help,but I had something similar.
I concluded that the rom on xda2 was newer than one being upgraded? with,so it says it won't work.I sent mine back to o2,but think that rom 172 or something, might be accepted.People say that you leave it 30 mins before it starts to upgrade.
There is a problem with bootloader v1.06 in that it will not allow 'downgrades'. It seems to have appeared on devices around the same time that ROM versions 1.72 appeared. I have read that it will allow installation of version 1.66 but nothing less than that (and that may apply only to T-Mobile). However, you should be able to install a version 1.72 ROM without to much problem.
My help
You can make the unit work again by downloading the rom version:
1. Ensure that the main battery has enough charge to make the unit in bootloading mode.
2. Execute the bootloading mode and connect the unit to the docking station(cradle), you will see the "Serial" in the upper portion of the screen will switch to "USB" this is an indication that there's a connection established between the pocket pc and your pc.
3. Then download the latest Rom version(1.72 is a better choice).
Thanks dcs and Juni
The 1.72 rom did get it going again .... but i still have no response on the screen so im guessing ill have to return it.
Does anyone know where i can get the 1.66WWE rom from as im assuming returning it with 1.72 rom on it may be frowned upon, and a voided warrany.
Thanks agian guys for your help

Hi guys, I have some experience with rom flashing, and I did it today as usual - flashed HTC 1.35 ... Update stopped at 1%. I tried everything I could to finish the update (It wasn't my first time ). Now, after restart TyTn is flashing with LCD (black & white) & camera led. I can't do anything, even turn it off. Seems like a problem with bootloader. What should I try before i send it for repairing? Do you have any experience with T-Mobile UK? I'm the legal owner of PDA, but I don't have any receipt. Should I contact seller (ebayer) or post it to T-Mob straight away?
Thanks in advance, Jack.
Anyone please?
Check out the wiki for Tytn upgrade problems
I also had this problem, upgrade stopped at 1%....Left it for an hour and no progress. Had to stop update, which then left me at the boot loader screen (tri-color) screen. Tried Hard reset as mentioned above, no luck, still stuck in boot loader, tried to reload rom..got error 262 upgrade error
I had just run the unlocker and set device to super CID, and thought maybe that was my problem, but it wasn't
Luckily the wiki had the answer
Problem 4: Device is stuck in bootloader mode (tri-color screen)
>Disable ActiveSync: connections -- settings -- uncheck "Allow USB Connections"
Remove the battery, put it back in, connect the USB cable, power on the unit (this should allow the USB port to be opened again)
Wait a minute or two, if you get a message that device cannot be recognized just close and ignore it
Open
mtty.exe and select "USB" from the dialog box, then hit Ok.
You should see a white screen, hit enter and you should see a prompt like this: "USB>"
Type set 14 0 (do not copy and paste!!!) and hit enter
Soft reset with stylus
OS ROM and radio version should be back and OS functional, the unit isn't a BRICK anymore!
I had to reload the rom. step 8 did nothing, but return me to bootloader. This time the rom upgrade took about 45 minutes to complete. Weird, but it worked...This is first time in at least 4 rom upgrades with this device and at least 50 other rom upgrades that I ever encountered any issues.
POF...Thanks for the great wiki

Unfortunately, when it hanged on 1% connection was totally lost. Everytime I tried to run rom upgrade/unlocker/spl downgrader is said no connection. Now I don't have bootloader screen, only flashing LCD & camera diode. Any suggestions?
If you can't get the bootloader running then a service center will be the only solution I think.
Has anybody found the solution to this problem, my phone is doing the same thing. Can't get it into bootloader and screen & camera flash just blinks? I tried everything but to no avail.
Hi mate, have you done anything special or it goes bricked "without help"? I I still haven't put it to RMA because there's no T-Mobile in Republic of Ireland and I'm 2 lazy to go to Belfast

It's bricked trying to update it!!! If i could just get it to the bootloader, i can probably revive it but can't do anything. Can't access USB or nothing, I'll guess I'll send it off to a repair center.
Are there any good repair centers in the US???
I managed to upgrade my phone to aku 3.3 using pof's method(bootloader 1.01 MFG) . Then, out of no where, I tried to use MTTY to upgrade my radio rom
It started as usual with the status bar moving. Suddenly some error messages came up.
Now, the phone is dead completely. I can''t even enter bootloader mode.
Is there a possible way that I can still save it??
Help!!!!
Have I bricked my device? Help plz

I had something similiar happen a little while back. What I did was pull the battery out and leave it out for a while, maybe a few minutes. I then put the battery back in and held the two side buttons and hit the reset button to put me into bootloader mode. I then cabled it to my computer and flashed a new OS via mutty. That got my phone back and operational.
@float. Nuh, it didn't work on my brick. Prob i will have to take it back to Tmobile if they kind enough to repair the no warranty phone i bought on ebay.
Sorry to have opened a new thread, I was so desperate.
Plz delelte it.
how exactly did you try to update the radio using mtty?
I download the 1.27 shipped radio rom. P.S. It seemed to be a german version, not sure whether that caused the disaster.
Using NBHextract to get the single GSM.NB file, then in MTTY, typed
USB> task 32
USB> lnb GSM.NB
Before flashing, just had it upgraded to the HTC AKU3.3 OS rom only. The old version radio rom version before flashing was 1.18.
Maybe the order i flash is wrong. I flashed OS first then the radio rom.
just guessing
ok, you loaded the radio rom code where os.nb should go. That may have caused mega bad blocks in flash. Can you even get bootloader mode if you reset using Wiki directions to obtain Tri-color bootloader?
Yes. I have tried many ways wiki suggests. Such as removing the battery leaving it more than half an hour and plugging it to the usb cable without battery. still can't get to the tri-color bootloader mode. Basically, I just can't turn on the phone.
If you connect it to the computer, can it communicate w/the PC? If you hear the windows tones try opening up mtty and see if you can communicate.
i'm stuck in the same place
for me it happened during extrom flash
Try removing the battery for a bit (a few minutes, maybe half an hour). Then, put the battery back in but don't plug the usb cable in. After that, hold the two side buttons as if you're trying to get it to go into the bootloader. Hit the reset button a few times with your stylus and see if that gets you to the bootloader. That's what worked for me.
tried that
tried removing battery and connecting usb
nothing helps

god bless KITL
Three days back,my SPV C550 suddenly hanged.I restart it by removing the battery.After reboot, it now only showing desktop with battery icon,signal strength indicator and the Unlock button(soft key) with Windows Mobile screen logo.I tried Hard reset, which cannot complete succeessfully.It also can't connect to Active Sync.
I also tried to flash the ROM from SD card,but it can't allow update because
my phone doesn't have a SuperCID.i unable to change CID because both SPV-Services and pdocread.exe need Active Sync connetion to work.
I searched all the forums,but didn't find any solution how to change CID without Active Sync.
Please help.
I had a similar problem with mine. The screen is the same as yours only varying with the sim card removed to a sim missing logo. Also mine makes the error/message noise repeatedly for a phew secoonds every half hour or so.
I just gave up in the end and admitted it was a brick
and the saga continues
Well the TyTn has died and I'm still waiting on a refund on a dodge wizard so its time to dig out the old SPVs I have a working Tornado (the right soft key has packed up thats a little annoying) so am trying to revive this hurricane.
I have linked some pictures of what is dose display and as you can see it will load into boot loader but due to not being ably to unlock it I cant flash any of the roms I have found.
I have been trying to fix this now for well bloody ages on and off but a good straight 12 hours just recently and to no avail.
In short I need a way to unlock the phone without active sync. The only way I can think of being able to do this is with some kind of specific software through boot loader
Any ideas?

sx56 problem
I downloaded the XDA-developers-SER-v12 for my siemens sx56...
the problem is that when i downloaded it and have it activated... the phone show upgrading...will take 5 minutes to do so and do not unplug... the thing is...it has been over 5 minutes and it still shows in my screen and i couldn't get to take it off...
now the thing is as soon as it unzips it says that i have to have my phone on active sync... i cannot do so since the phone is stucked... now when i try to cancel it it says "cannot open the ROM image file" please download and try again" so that's how it goes repetitively... what is the best way that i can do with this? if it ain't going to work.. i would rather just use it as an organizer like it used to...
is there anything i can do with this?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_FlashSD
and if you want to unlock use the exe tool rather then a very very very old rom
like
XDA-developers-SER-v12
The code will change depending on the model of the mobile phone. Every step has to be carefully followed while unlocking the phone.
SX56 problems
Hi, I recently got a brand new Siemens SX56 from ebay. It was never upgraded to firmware. I took the task of upgrading this but something happened that killed the process. Now the device is stuck at this mode even after doing a reset.
My steps were, I updated Active Sync to 3.7.1 (the latest version) The device is happily communicating with my pc.
Then started the upgrade and the screen says "upgrading will take 5 minutes, do not remove device or uplug power...during upgrade process..etc"
The program says it encountered an error during the upgrade and basically stopped the process. I knew this was bad. The instructions told me to uplug the device from the usb cable, do a normal reset, plug usb cable back in, and then retry the upgrade utility.
It won't because no active sync can't see my device because the screen is stuck on that "upgrading takes 5 minutes screen"
Is this device basically dead? Please help. This was a clear upgrade process and clearly the process got an error.
Hello gybanez,
I had the same problem and was able resolve the problem.
You have two options:
1. you can send it to me and I will do it for free.
or
2. buy these:
a. MMC card (at least 64 mb)
b. buy a Card Reader/writer that supports MMC
c. go to www.xda-developers.com and download "XDA-developers-SER-v12"
d. extract the ROM from XDA-Developers-ser-v12 (.nbf file).
e. also download XDA-TOOLS (used to copy the .nbf file extracted to
your new MMC card on the Card reader/writer.
f. now insert the MMC card into your sx56 press reset and power button
at the same time and it should take you to a screen which asks you
to press "action button" to download and once done do a cold reset.
This should do the trick and afterwards if you want to upgrade and or
customize it go to http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/ great site.
PS: If anyone wants to correct/add to this please feel free.
Regards, JOHNNY.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This was the same problem I had... so finally i got it all and had it transferred in the MMC card...
the thing...as soon as I run it...it get stuck on "SIR TEST : Supporting Running"
and another is that I am using Vista and downloaded the latest mobile sync... but it responds that it doesn't identify the HTC mobile... really sad... can someone contact me via YM: [email protected]
