So there are a lot of different ROM's out there...official, unofficial, hacks, etc. on every thread.
Does anybody want to compile a list/chart of what versions are floating around and what versions their Himalayas are running( have run, if you've upgraded) and does it work for them? Maybe we can eventually get a db together with all the different ones out there to share. I have a few( none applied though).
For example:
Me I-mate PPC PE( fill in your version XDAII, MDAII, Qtek2020, etc)
Rom version:1.03.00USA
Rom Date:9/24/03
Radio Version: 1.05.12
Protocol version:1337.12
ExtROM version: 1.03.20
Language: English
Official? :yes
Upgraded? : no
Works for you: for now.
Or add their $0.02 and other categories to compile a list.
I-mate PPC PE
Rom version:1.52.00WWE
Rom Date:10/23/03
Radio Version: 1.06.01
Protocol version:1337.16
ExtROM version: 1.52.83
Language: English
Official :Yes
Upgraded : Yes
Works for you: Upgrade worked, but having bad battery life and signal problems ever since...
Hey hachepe, since you have the original ROMs still, could you backup them up off of your device, (OS, Radio, Ext, etc..). I'm thinking of downgrading.... (here some links on how, though I've never done it)

Thanks
I went from the official Imate rom that came with it to the official 1.52 version. Unit is faster, NO BATTERY PROBLEMS, or low signal problems, fixes for the (+) problem in the inbox program , msn messenger update , mms fix , Bluetooth profile fix for BT headset, much better signal, quick radio off mode. No issues VERY glad I updated.
Qtek 2020
Qtek 2020, went from an old US rom to the Tmobile 1.60 then to the new Qtek Rom from Dangaard after struggeling with the country id error:
Version: 1.60.00WWE
Date: 12.03.03
Radio version: 1.06.01
Protocol: 1337.16
ExtRom: 1.60.21
I like the Qtek rom better since it doesn't include the predefined setup of MMS an so on...

Can we have more detail about this?
MDA II, upgraded the original German ROM (don't know the version number, I think 1.30) to the T-Mobile 1.60 NL (non official version). MDA is now in English, can't compare since I upgraded immediatly after purchase. Waiting with the Dangaard 1.60 upgrade.
Here is my config...
Qtek 2020
Rom version:1.52.00FRA
Rom Date:10/23/03
Radio Version: 1.05.12
Protocol version:1337.16
ExtROM version: 1.52.02
Language: French
Official :Yes
Upgraded : No
Waiting for French upgrade... or perhaps might migrate to english ROM if no French version planified.
FYI, I received this message from QTek support :-(

Subject: Qtek 2020 Support?
Importance: High
Hi,
I recently bought a QTek 2020 from a French online retailer (CDiscount).
This is a great device. Unfortunately, I can't find any kind of online
support for this device... Indeed, several HTC distributors (for instance
those that distribute XDA II or i-Mate - which are the same devices than
QTek 2020) are offering online support for their device (ROM update,
Software update, etc.).
What about QTek 2020 support? There is no area dedicated to QTek 2020 on
your web site. Moreover, your web site is unintelligible for foreigners...
Could you please give me a way to get the same kind of services than you
competitors?
Thanks in advance for your answer and Happy New Year!
Regards,
Guillaume

To Guillaume:
You hit the point! Every retailer has to provide support for Qtek?
This is totally unfair. However, to be honest, Dangaard people is allowing the download of Qtek specific ROM without much of a question... for now.
I accepted an exchange from i-mate to Qtek, because my seller (Expansys) was sold out on I-mate, and claimed the device was the same (it is in fact) but no statement was made about support.
my config:
Qtek 2020
Originally 1.03.00 USA upgraded to T mobile ROM 1.60.00 WWE
ROM date 12/03/03
Radio version 1.06.01
Protocol version 1337.16
Ext ROM Version 1.60.06
Fortunately no problems about country ID, although I'm dealing with some minor bugs:¿Maybe another data base on ROM version specific problems?
1.- T-mobile 1.60, looks much faster than my Qtek original one (phone being the best part) although some minor bugs are there, some old, some new.
2.- I had to hard reset the machine more often to get rid of some bugs, the most annoying being The menu text font changing itself to white without apparent reason. Depending of your background theme, it becomes unreadable (T-mobile theme for instance) Seems related to trying new themes.
3.- PC message about USB port unrecognized.
4.- Refusal to sync notes. (This is my most recent one)
5.- My recurrent and permanent bug: week view on calendar (7 days, monday first) if today happens to be Sunday, every tap on the "go to today" button takes me to the NEXT week. Can anyone confirm this is PPC 2003 or XDAII/ROM specific? (Just change the date to the next sunday and tell me please)
6.- Both Brightness settings set themselves to ZERO, while working on the PDA. This is an awfull one, I thought I've lost my XDAII backlight! Until I found my way to the menu and settings, I wasn't able to recover the backlight. Try to do that on a poor light environment WITHOUT any backlight, (blaming the manufacturer and guessing who would fix it altogether) and you'll know what I'm talking about.
7.- And my final wish: When the BT Handsfree profile for my carkit?

2. Had also probs with changing themes.
3. I installed the most recent ActiveSync version from the Microsoft site, even before I connected the MDA II for the first time, so no probs with that.
4. Works fine here.
5. Tried this out, no prob, works fine.
6. Unknown problem here.
I do have problems with ActiveSync locking up from time to time. Then I have to kill it with taskmanager and restart it.
Hope this helps,

Qtek/Dangaard 1.60.21
O2 XDA2
Originally 1.03.00 USA upgraded to Qtek/Dangaard ROM 1.60.21 WWE
ROM date 12/03/03
Radio version 1.06.01
Protocol version 1337.16
Ext ROM Version 1.60.06 (Thariman's custom Tmobile/O2 ext ROM)
Language: English
Official :yes
Upgraded : yes
Works for you: yes with modification
Major problem with Qtek 1.60.21 (original 1.60.21 ExtRom). XDA2 will soft reset when a wav file is opened via file explorer. In one occassion it froze completely and cannot be revived by soft reset. Only after hard reset and removing the battery the XDA came back (for a while the PDA did'nt respond even to hard resets).
After extended ROM was re-flashed using moded custom Tmobile/O2 extrom, the wav file problem disappeared. Plus I was able to get the SPB GPRS monitor and my precious O2 bubbles.
PS: I used RPC's hexediting method to modify Thariman's custom ms_.nbf
and the GPRS "auto off"?
I had the original O2 1.03 and upgraded to Tmobile 1.6
Now the GPRS turns itself off after every use. very annoying.
I understand different versions have this set differently,
or anyone knows a reg key?!
which version should I get (English) to solve this?
O2 XDAII Asia Version
Currently TMobile NL
Rom version:1.60.00WWE
Rom Date:12/03/03
Radio Version: 1.06.01
Protocol version:1337.16
ExtROM version: 1.60.06 Cook ( ExtRom is ReadOnly )
Language: English
Official? :no
Upgraded? : yes
Works for you: Yes.
I replace my CallerID with Caller2Picture
Installed apps:
Resco File Explorer and Resco Registry
UK AIM Client
nPop
PocketWinc
SanDisk Wi-Fi
XCPUScalar
IP Dashboard
Spb Pocket Plus
Sprite Backup
vxUtil
vxSNMP
Original version 1.03.00
Move to T-Mobile 1.60 NL
-- Happy
-- ftXPBrowser freeze once awhile need to soft reset.
-- GPRS is always on since I remove the T-Mobile customization.
-- Bluetooth work fine for GPS using Holux GR-230 ( not use extensively yet only GPSView and VisualGPSce
-- Ocassionally use Jabra BT200 earset, it work fine.
Move to Dangaard Qtek
-- Hard reset once while browsing with ftXPBrowser via GPRS
-- 3 occasion of no signal (X) on the signal meter
Move to I-Mate (nk 1.52.00, Radio 1.06.01, ms 1.52.83 )
-- Doesn't have the Bluetooth Serial fix
Move back to T-Mobile 1.60 NL

THANKS FOR THE INFO!
Just moved to Dangaard ROM. Seems to go far better, although bugs seem to be the "essence" of XDA Software.
BTW with item 5, would you mind set for a moment Regional language to Spanish (Traditional sort) and make a try on the "sunday" bug. I've been unable to get rid of this, and it's my 3th ROM! My last shot is this is related to Language. (Note: week view on calendar, 7 days week, monday first, and today is Sunday... tap takes you to Monday next week!
Thanks a lot!
Hello friends!
I have a Qtek 2020 that is upgraded to the official ROM 1.66.00WWE. Everything was working perfectly until about a week ago. I suddenly got problems with GPRS. The letter "G" don't show up in the titlebar when I turn wireless off.
I've tried all previous tips in this great forum: GB-Soft tweak, changing PAP/CHAP, Class 8/10 etc...
Today I even did a hard-reset, but it didn't help
I just mailed Qtek about this problem. If I get an answer, I will post it here.
If you have any suggestions or tips, please post them... :roll:
/Oggi
and you are positiv that the accesspoint and login and password are correct ?
I put on the following adress the last ENGLISH ROM UPDATE
The origin of this ROM is DANGARD
ftp://xda-developers.com/Last rom qtek english version RUU166130WWE_Qtek-Generic-ship/
Login & Pasword are : xda (in miniscule)
Perhaps can this version help you.
EWDB
Thanks for you answers!
In Sweden Vodafone use both blank password and username, so this information is correct.
I will download the DANGARD ROM and try if it helps...

Hi to all, this is my first message and I have to greet all users of this forum!
I just upgraded my Qtek 2020 from WM2003 to WM2003SE but I have, at my advice, some problems/bugs and I wanto to know if they are "normal" or something gone wrong....
First thing : first time of use after upgraded I discovered that the phone it's not ringing when I receive calls but not from all numbers (very strange thing!).
Second thing : Storage it's full of files that I think should be of the installation and there are also some strange folders like "?????" or japanese characters.
Third thing : today morning I turned off flight mode to use phone and the phone did not turned on, softreset and then ok.
Navigation, bluetooth, programs are working well.
I read on this forum about a procedure to select boot options (reset button and hold camera + recording buttons) but it never worked to me (probably works only with WM05?).
I have motorola A1000 and this qtek 2020 and seems that A1000 works much better that 2020 but I like the qtek 2020 much more that motorola and I would to sell motorola and use qtek but first the qtek have to work like a charm!
Have You some clues to solve this bugs?
It's convenient to upgrade to WM05 or the pda will slow down or have some other problems?
the 2003SE roms where never officaly english
they were asian roms manualy translated to english
personaly i think you would be better off with a newer wm5 rom
i use this rom
http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_phorum&Itemid=125&phorum_query=read,26,29686
there are links in the thread
and a description how you put your device in bootloader is included in the zip
Ok, I got it thank You but I have radio version 1.18 it's ok?
it's fine

Try your serial number here.

I just got my ameo a week ago and already upgraded to wm6 through that link
t-mob alos updated a ton of other handsets FINALLY
including the vario II to wm6 , and a newer wm5 for the universal
BTW NOTE TO THOSE THAT USE REMOTE DESKTOP
UK T-Mobile firmware for WM6 appears to have it MISSING, i even tried hard reset and let it configure again and thought even the missing icon problem that was still present even in wm6 ( icons go AWOL) was the cause. it's not i had to actually install it from scratch ( there's a cab on this forum under i think it was development and hacking, just search for it )
Hi xacsx,
try again without SPACE and D at the end, this should work (in my case, it did).

Careful - technically you need a serial number to download the Tmob ROM so this may count as warez.
Could a moderator please ponder this point.
Hi there,
I'm missing the calculator after upgrading, anyone with the same prob ?
Thanks
No problem with the calculator on mine, you tried re-instaling it
Isn't it in the "Organiser" section?
Opera not working
Hi All, I've just finished the t-mobile update to wm6 from one of the links in this thread and now opera won't work. Can anyone help?
Many Thanks
