Hi all,
i'm just about to flash my pda.. and i'd like to know if what i've done so far is correct:
first af all, my Qtek2020 is German, and the first OS was German. When i upgraded to 1.72.128 ITA i rembember i changed the language by using ER2k3 Edit..
now, i've downloaded SinMerged 1.x and extracted all the files.
then i've opened all of the 3 files (ext rom, radio and rom image) with er2k3edit and changed the "language" field from WWE to GER
i've also edited the field "Operator" and changed from O2 to Qtek
i wonder if it's correct...
Oh PS: btw do you know any program do backup SMSs? thx!
you can check what your qtek is now by running getdevicedata.
just to be sure it is a GER Qtek.
thanks for the advice..
i'll let you know asap
here's what i got:
Code:
U S B 3 2 1 . 7 2 . 0 4 I T A P H 1 0 Q t e k I T A 1 . 7 2 . 1 2 8 1 . 1 4 . 0 0
so language id is ITA :/
mmm i tought it was GER.. anyway.. is it correct to edit those fields on each of the 3 roms (radio, main and ext) ? or just on the main one?
thx again!
Edit on all three, I never tried otherwise.
some side information :
* All 3 upgrades (nk, radio,ms) have an operator and language which has to be the same as your machine.
* ms has also another operator and language your machine will change into when you upgrade
These are located on offset 74 and 94 in the decrypted MS_.nba
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12101&start=0
If you don't want to change the operator and language in your machine, for guarantee reasons, you should follow DCS's post about country code error.
Although downgrading to your official rom might also be possible if you modify its headers with ER2003Edit. But sometimes a downgrade is no longer possible before claiming guarantee.
Hello everyone,
Searched a lot, but couldn't find a solution. Or did i miss somthing?
Ik have a Himalaya device. Upgraded succesfull to WM2003SE, and later to WM5. Really great, but hated the 'loss' of memory.
Now i've found a new WM5 ROM with memory
So i ran HimaGetDeviceData.exe and copied the DeviceData.txt to my pc and... the OperatorID is empty:
"U S B 3 2 1 . 6 0 a . 0 0 W W
E
1 . 1 0 . 0 0 "
Now i don't know how to change de operatorID of de NK.nbf. And when i just try to use HimaUpgradeUt.exe, i get the expected COUNTRY ERROR
Can i change the OperatorID of my device? Or is there an other solution? Or am i just doing something wrong?
Thanx in ahead!
I have successfully upgraded my HTC-X7500 with WM6.
I have to use LEng - Greek Language Support for Windows Mobile 5.0
Everything works fine except sms and e-mail
The problem with sms is the way the message appears on screen.
Example:

With the same way appears From also and then message correctly as it should be…
Now the problem with E-mail message is that I am not able to see on body any greek characters…
I try different language encodings but no luck...
Could someone please help me with that...
I really appreciate any help...
Thanks in advance…
Hello,
some of us who have bought a Hero locked to Orange can't seem to get it unlocked (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=555424).
For those have you who have managed to successfully unlock an Hero on Orange please can you advise on your experience- did you have to do something differently? And who you used to get the code? I have used Unlock Now (www.unlock-now.com) but the code they have supplied didn't work (they refunded me).
I have never had a problem unlocking a HTC phone until now and I find it hard to believe that Orange Heros can't be unlocked.
Please help if you can.

I am glad this thread has been of use to people.
I thought I would add and update to the first page so people don't have to wade through the whole thread.
If you are experiencing this issue you have two choices:
1)CID unlock your Hero (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559806).
2)Use a Rebel II Sim.
OK there are three choices.
3) Use your Hero on an Orange contract for about three months then ring up Orange and ask them for a unlock code. They will charge about £20 for it and you may have to wait up to two weeks for em to send it.
C'est tout.
*********************************************************
[Update 24/10/09]
OK, after discussions and PM's on this thread I was advised to use the code I had previously bought with a different rom (when I first got my Hero tried it I was using the Orange stock rom then Modacos 2.3).
I just tested it now, took out my rebel sim put in the code and it works! I am currently using Modaco's 2.8.
Hope this helps.
I used http://hero.unlock-now.com/sim-unlock-HTC-Hero/ and the code worked for me. I did get my Hero within a few days of release. My work collegue also did the same with no problems.
What network do you use your hero on now?
hi i bought one locked to orange uk and unlocked it here
http://www.simunlock-htchero.com/buy.html
i received the code in 2 minutes and it worked, i use now Optimus in Portugal
Got my second one (for the wife) off eBay a week or two back. Poster claimed it was days old. Unlocked through htcunlock fine. Three sim seems to work better with Orange radio than the tmobile hero I purchased earlier.
Zuber
RetroFlux: I'm now on o2 after my unlock.
i'm getting the same thing with my orange locked hero, I have even tried a foreign sim as suggested. But does not seem to unlock with the correct unlock code. Is there a cable method for unlocking?
I have the same problem.
First case:
Turn on the phone with orange SIM card - everything works fine.
Turn on the phone with any other SIM card (I actually tried 3 other SIM card from 3 different providers). It asks unlock code. Enter unlock code I bought (actually any code containing 8 digits) it says "Network unlock successful." But after that it allow only emergency calls and if I try to make a call I see "Not registered in network" message. After reboot it asks unlock code again.
Second case:
If I do "restore to factory defaults" and turn it on the first time with my (no orange) SIM card, it asks unlock code I enter correct unlock code (salesman gave me one, and after that I also bought the same code in the Internet )
it hangs with phrase "Unlocking SIM card...". (Actually "turn off menu" works, I even can make an emergency call, but that is all I can get from it)
Also I noticed that in the first case there is strange line on the bottom of the screen (of the size of the notification bar).
I have tried different ROMS (original, rooted, latest, modacos) all the same. I also tried to downgrade radio firmware. I even tried all SIM cards I can obtain, the problem is obviously doesn't caused by SIM/Network incompatibility. Btw, my SIM card works OK in another HTC Hero (which was bought with my one).
I think it is problem with unlock procedure itself, not with code correctness. If wrong code entered it must say something like "wrong code", but for any 8 digit code it says "Network unlock successful". Is is the symptom! )
I do not know what to do further
I got a (UK) Orange Hero about 3 weeks ago from dial-a-phone. Unlocked it without a problem about a week later from:
http://hero.unlock-now.com/sim-unlock-HTC-Hero/
Took about 20 mins and worked 1st time. Now running with an UK O2 sim. Sorry!
As I mentioned above, while first boot with my local SIM card it hangs with "Unlocking SIM card..." message. At this time I see the following processes running.

Im having the same issue, I got a new HTC Hero on Orange today, and it wont unlock. I used Unlock-now, so I have sent them a message asking for my money back, will that suffice. Has anyone been able to get there Orange UK, branded and locked phones unlocked.
nintendolinky, what is your ROM version ? There may be a possibility you have the latest firmware build... maybe...
i'm in the same boat! bought the code but no joy. it say's unlocked but could not register my voda sim. Anyone?
I tried to contact Orange today to buy an unlock code from them directly, after been passed about I eventually got through to someone bureaucratic wench who was completely unhelpful and I ended up telling them to F off and hung up. Kind of shot myself in the foot there.
I know this doesn't help our situation but I am still looking into it.

So are you saying there is an issue with the new firmware? When you say firmware do you mean ROM? As I have already flashed Modacos latest ROM and my Three/Vodafone/O2 sim still won't work.
I don't have my Hero with me at the moment but will post back my firmware number later, if other people (who are having the same issue) can post theirs maybe we can find a common firmware at fault.

I used Unlock-Now, they did refund me after your usual basic diagnostics.

Ok, here are my firmware details:
Firmware version: 1.5
Baseband Version: 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18
Kernel Version: 2.6.27-8dd6deee [email protected]
Build Number: 2.73.405.5 146733 CL#61267 MCR2.2c release keys
Software Version: 1.0.0.A6288
Someone out there must be able to help fix this, pros/cooks/anyone can you shed anylight on this?
I've tried oldest/newes/custom ROMs, it looks like unlocking procedure doesn't depend on ROM at all.
is there a way to unlock this via cable? what about flashing the rom?
my build number is
Build Number: 1.76.61.3 whats the difference with this and Build Number: 2.73.405.5?
Here is my info:
Firmware version: 1.5
Baseband Version: 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18
Kernel Version: 2.6.27-8dd6deee [email protected]
Build Number: 2.73.405.5 146733 CL#61267 MCR2.2e release keys
Software Version: 1.0.0.A6288
My build number is different, to the one listed here.
Hi
I just bought a samsung bkc 1B1 bluetooth keyboard, and I'm trying to use it with my galaxy tab 2 10.1 (p5110) with Cyanogenmod 10.1.1.
My problem is that is recognized as QWERTY keyboard, which it's not. So I decide to write a custom keylayout for the keyboard. First I searched for the vendor and product id :
Code:
$ : cat /proc/bus/input/devices
I : Bus=0005 Vendor=04e8 Product=7021 Version=0001
N : Name="Broadcom Bluetooth HID"
P : Phys=
S : Sysfs=/devices/virtual/misc/uhid/input9
U : Uniq=
H : Handler=sysrq kbd event8
B : PROP=0
B : EV=2001b
B : KEY=1f 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 10000 0 0 0 10013 2000007 ff9f307a c9405fff febeffdf ffafffff ffffffff fffffffe
B : ABS=f00 0
B : MSC=10
B : LED=1f
I duplicated Generic.kl and rename the copy "Vendor_04e8_Product_7021.kl". I tried to change a letter, but it seems the modification has not been taken into count even after a reboot.
I also tried "Vendor_04e8_Product_7021_Version_0001.kl" and "Broadcom Bluetooth HID.kl" but none of them seems to work.as well.
Is that normal ? How can I fix it ?

Try using "BroadcomBluetoothHID.kl" or "Broadcom_Bluetooth_HID.kl" instead.
Any update? Did you ever get this working? I'm experiencing the same issue. logcat shows that it never touches my custom kl file and just uses the Generic.kl. I can modify that file and my changes work fine, but that's obviously not the right solution. I'm working with a Nexus 7 stock Android 4.4.2 ROM. According to the documentation, this should work!
