Hi guys,
I've recently found this forum during a google search for tweaks for my newly purchased QTek 2020.
I have read here that the v1.72 ROM incrases battery performance so I would like to upgrade my unit to have this lastest version.
Here's my current Device Information...
ROM version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM date: 02/20/04
Radio version: 1.10.00
Protocol version: 1337.18
ExtROM version: 1.66.130
I use it on the UK T-Mobile network (can't seem to get MMS working though - anyone care to post there working settings?)
Can someone please advise me on where/how to update my device to v1.7.2 ROM
Any help greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Made a bit of research in the forum.
You will find that easily.
:wink:
Looking Glass: I've searched and the closest I can find is a norwegiean and french one, but none that is specific to qtek and english.
Any advice on searching would be greatly appreciated
I'm not expecting to be spoon fed, but am just asking for guidance.
My apologies in advance if I have offended long term members here with my request.
I'm hoping someone can help/guide me
@Looking Glass here is the same problem.
is there anyone who direct us the download site?
or paste the link here in the forum place.
thanks

is there anything that im missing??
@UniqueTouch how about your friend? could you reach the ftp site..
thnks all
looks like the attachment is gone from the server
try ftp:\\www.xda-developers.com
user & pwd are the first 3 letters of the name of this forum :lol:
I can't make it too easy
i just try it as your expl. but its stopping with mentioned attention but does not ask and psw or username..so?
atlast i reached site..huh.. :lol:
here which file is the correct one how can we choose? what is the diff between RUU172602WWE and UK02-172WWE ?
thanks
Thanks for link M4io
sulbas I can get in ok, but have same issue as yuorself now.
I'm unsure of which file I should download and what what I need to run one I have it
Any more help guys? Sorry to bother you all.
Guys,
if you want to choose from those two, use the RUU172602WWE.
The other one is a T-Mobile 1.72 beta!!
You can also use following link.
This is a customized 1.72 rom by me (based on the RUU172602WWE)
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Rom172/RUU172901WWE_eDsuBsofT.exe

Thanks edsub...but your ROM is set for NL?
What is the consequnce of running it on my device as I need UK setup.
My rom is setup for t-mobile nl
You might want to re-use some of the CAB files from your old ExtROM or even from the T-Mobile 1.72 beta.
There is a thread (search for 1.72 or ruu172*) which explains the objective of all cab's
DO NOT FORGET TO COPY THE WHOLE CONTENTS OF YOUR EXTENDED ROM TO YOUR PC FOR BACKUP (just in case)
@edsub thanks for expl.
upgrade operation is alittle hard and sensitive it seems..anyway..here me go in my qtek.. :lol:
it was easy as one "click" to start..nothing more needed.. :roll:
now my baby is upgraded..
thanks all guys.......
sulbas: which country did you updgrade? are you using NL or UK?
@UniqueTouch
i upgraded with RUU172602WWE.exe file, its EN language
i did not notice any difference with this img yet but atleast there is no cracks or else faults.. :roll:

sulbas: can you let me know how you carried out the upgrade. Which files you ran.
I just want to make sure that I will be doing it right.
Have you noticed better battery life yet?
@UniqueTouch
my friend you should just write click on file named RUU172602WWE.exe,
its also "InstallShield Wizard" and choose "extract to RUU172602WWE\" it will start to extract the needed files into mentioned named directory. next go to directory and click on file named "HimaUpgradeUt". But at the same your device should be locked on your dock station and it would be connected to your pc via usb you know.
just follow the arrows by clicking. no need to change some things its starting to load the needed files in 5 stages it takes approx.3o min. at last program will direct you to reset your device, you may reset it by taking off the battery, so i did this way. and thats it.
about battery life; i could not enough time to test it i just load it and it stills on dock station at work all day
i had a bt headtset epox marked but last week i gift it to my brother and now im searching for new one. it was quite well with such a normal handy phone but with my qtek i had some range problems. i hope to make my decision and buy new one within next week (i guess it will be jabra. :wink: )..you know, i really wonder how it will work with this new img..
i may inform you about the results..
Thanks for tips sulbas - sounds very straight forward.
Have just realised I have a faulty camera, the pictures are very very grainy and really poor quality.
Take a look: http://www.uniquetouch.co.uk/temp/sony/
The device is still under warranty so I am sending it back for replacement.
When I recieve the replacemant I will flash the ROM then.
I see WM2k5 1.60c at Buzzdev.net but I can't upgrade because I can't create ".nbf" file. Please help me
Hi, Can you post the link on buzznet as i can't find it??
cheers
Buzz removed the upload. He will post it later on :roll:
Victor
It see it is available on the site!
The dump of 1.60c on Buzz's site is only a dump of files from his device that were used for his testing...
The installer package will be released later on this week / early next week, please be patient...
it'll be worth the wait !
I confirmed it already reposted by buzz. You can download it now. I already upgrade it to 1.60cWWE, but I didn't see any different.
Quite a bit speedier, can't see much else different tho.
Thanks for your time and effort Buzz! We appreciate it.
Hi Buzz,
Thanks Wooooo Hooooo!!!
Everything works fine!!! The speed increase is wonderful!
I have no words to express my gratitude!! You are da man.
I think a lot of people have been spoilt and miss the big picture! Buzz you have done a great job. Just a small comparison to prove this:
Still Broken:
- The buttons (I would love for these to work, its no biggie)
- MMS (Which I have no need for realy)
Fixed huge problems by using WM2005 vs WM2003:
- Bluetooth works like a dream
- Headset reliably works
- Car kit reliably works
- BT GPS reliably works
- Persistant Memory!!!!
- No lockups
- Faster!!!!
- Battery lasts at least twice as long
- We now have WMP 10
- There are several other benefits that the os brings
Respect to the man with the plan.
Regards,
Duan

Hi Neel, not sure what you are asking. uninstalled what??
Hmmm... I can only see forum on Buzzdev. Where did main page go?
What about the STK (Sim Tool Kit)?
Is it working as well?
I've tried 1.60h.
I worked flawlessly.
However, I have to go back to WM2003SE coz I really need and use this STK feature everyday.
Can someone tell me where can I find the cure for STK to be used in WM5.0, please?

Many people has been asking about exact/detailed steps to upgrade the Gene WM5 to WM6 provided by mun_rus. I've created a detailed document, that explains the complete process with screenshots.
Download the pdf from RAPIDSHARE or from MEGAUPLOAD.
Any feedback/comments are most welcome.

there are many tools [paid & freeware] available for backing up. i heard that one of the best backup tool is Sprite Backup [though i've never used it].
if you want to backup just the contacts/appointments/smses/etc then u can use PIM Backup available in the forum, that's what i used when i upgraded first time. though this does not backup the original ROM.
best of luck with the upgrade.

but Sprite backup doesn't copy the ROM... Its just the settings... modifications done after ROM hard reset..
Help Needed!!! Noob Here!
Hello Mobix,
I am trying for the past 2 days to upgrade to WM6 following your guide.
Initially, couldnt manage through the camera + voice command button so tried with Gene_HSPL.exe file i found in these forums.
After ages i am able to see SPL as 1.10.Olip.
But now theres another issue which is driving me nuts completely.
Whenever i try to run the RUU from Gene_HSPL in my desktop to upgrade the ROM, my activesync connection dies out and i have to reset Gene.
I have downloaded all files from the links you mentioned in your How-To.
So i m quite stuck with the 1.10.Olip and the step to do after this.
What do i do next?
What do i do to keep my active sync connection going till the full update of ROM???
Desperately seeking suggestion and help here.
Ramon.
Resolved!
Hello Friends,
Dunno how or what or why, but things seem to solve on its own.
After running the RUU for something like 20 times, i went past the blue-green-red screen and the update process started happening.
I have no idea how it happened and i am yet clueless abt the whole thing.
But i have the WM6 OS on my Gene now. I havent been able to get weather details for my location,Mumbai. The data download always fails.
The Internet connection seems to work and the MMS doesnt work.
Have tweaked the registry to set Segoe UI as my system wide default font and every thing looks hunky dory at the moment.
Will holler for help when i need some.
Thanks to Mobix, vukile, olipro ababreka, mun_rus, nirvana and all the others whose forums and posts helped me get this done.
p.s. gotta admit, for a man familiar to windows and linux, these ROM's are pure greek.
ramon_mac, nice to know u were able to flash wm6. cudn't reply u earlier as my system died on me so had to re-install everything.
reg default font, you will have to enable the cleartype for fonts to render properly.

Hi Guys
noob here
MOBIX, you are a hero. If it wasn't for this brilliant manual, I would have probably stuffed up the whole thing and I was struggling so badly to find the RUU utility. The links in your pdf provided everything I needed
Thank you so much and also mun_rus for the ROM offcourse
Looking forward to updates..
Thanks guys
CougarESP, glad to know that the guide was helpful to you.

Hi everyone, i am shyam sunder from India.
I just got hold of the O2 XDA Atom Exec which has the windows mobile 5 on it. i have the following queries:-

Windows mobile 5 OR 6 Or 6.5
2) What are the main features of the phone and how should we use them ? i am very new to these Touchscreen PDAs which are, i suppose, a far cry from the N97s and E72s of nokia
I don't want anything fancy like icons, keys, etc on the phone i just want to change the OS and i need your help.
I saw other threads but i couldn't understand what are com4, com5 and chome and ROM installation because i am totally new to this. thats why i started a new thread. Please don't delete this.
