Hi. I have Qtek 2020
I'm total newbie in pocket pcs
Windows Mobile 2003
ROM version 1.72.00WWE
Radio version 1.14.00
Protocol version 1337.24
ExtRom version 1.72.752
Can i upgrade it to 5.0, 6.0 or 6.5 WM??? Anyway, what can i upgrade to have better mobile)))
Want to use Spb programms.
need help
p.s Sorry for my english.
I think
i think u cant do enything enymore coz wm5 and 6 is not supported.
yes you can upgrade it to wm6.5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538212
but not an official rom though
your current rom was the last official one for 2020
I´ve got a Himalaya with an actual WM6.5 Custom Rom
It looks nice and is fast and stable....
but be careful on choosing the Rom,a lot of Spb Programms should Installed
on the Main Storage- a Lot of the newer ROMs have only 14mb Main Storage
(thats because of Switching the Main Storage from RAM to the Flash Disk,RAM Data disappear if the Battery is empty,Flash is non volatile,)
IMPORTANT!!!TAKE THE TIME (!!!!!) AND READ THE INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO FLASH THE DEVICE ,TO AVOID UNNECESSARY BRICKING!
I think 70 Percent of the People which Killed their device
didn´t read the instructions clearly!
It´s always difficult to flash your first rom (yeah...good old times)
but....just stay cool and calm....and read read read DOOD!

I am already reg. with I-mate as owner of one of it products, I got informations from them say that new room will be avilable soon it is ver. 1.66 for XDA II maybe next few days, and the windows Ver. is Windows 2003 SE
at all when I got the link to download it I will publish the link for everyone, Thank you for everyone published that great support using XDA II and XDA. it was great help to me to came very expert in solving problems to my XDA and XDAII
as my profile say then
i have
RUU 1.66.00WWE
RSU 1.10
on my qtek2020 it came with that
as far as i can tell it's not 2003 SE
specs
ROM version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM date> 02/20/04
Radio version 1.10.00
protocol version 1337.18
extOM version 1.66.140
I published what I already read in I-mate forum, I didn't have it yet ...... by the way all new edditions of XDAII coming with v. 1.66
so Rudegar
as it is getting really stressy to have the latest release... ;-)
do you have any ideas about the improvements with your
1.66.00 ROM over the 1.60.00
Alex
hmm, can you post a copy of your rom?
you can copy the rom with pmemdump from itsutils.
well it had that rom when i got it so i cant really compare it with 1.60 since i went from a xda1
i'll look into drumping the rom
but it does seem to have some auto settings and such for
some phone company
usually the phone company specific stuff is in the extended rom.
itsme:
usually the build number is just the ExtROM right? example, the latest tmobile rom i saw in the other thread had 1.60.36, but the os was simply 1.60.00, and the radio was 1.10.00, and the extrom was 1.60.36
does that mean that IF we extract whatever newest rom that comes out in the future and see that it has the same osrom ver and radio stack, merely upgrading the ExtROM is the best way to go?
I mean i know people prefer to only flash the ExtROM, but that's because they want to cook something up. But what if you just want to upgrade and not waste time with the OS if you see they still have the same number, does it HAVE to come hand in hand to upgrade? Or could you just bypass the others and upgrade the ExtROM and expect it to perform like a real update?
yes, that is what I usually do.
Can anyone share with us information on version 1.72 for XDA2: features, benefits, pros, cons... ?
Is worth upgrading from O2 1.60 ?
thanks
There are allready many threads on this.
But to conclude:
If you don't have any issues with your current version: stay with it.
You might consider 1.72 (the Qtek or iMate versions, NOT the T-Mobile beta) especially when:
1. You need certain Bluetooth options (ie serial port protocol) and don't want to mess around with hacks or extra 'tools'
2. Battery life is important
For me these points were enough to DO the upgrade (coming from 1.63 T-Mobile NL). And very happy with it.
Keep in mind that (unless you find a 1.72 from your own operator) you will have quite some work with getting all the customisations right.
One of these days I will post a good working set (no issues in a month holiday!!) of customisations to be used as a an extended rom for T-Mobile NL
i'm currently using the T-Mobile ROM v1.72WWE had no problem with it. the batt life was improved noticeably. I was using the O2 ROM v1.66WWE
as for my bluetooth i'm using the widcomm BT-PPC/PE v1.0.0 build 1400. no problems with it except that it turns off whenever i set my phone to standby mode.
downlaod
i have a qtek 2020 with rom 1.66 and it is doing a lot of problem which version is better and where can i download it

untill now ;
phone, gprs, activesync, run program, MS BT stack, sms, mms ........are running well. (maybe i am lucky with it)
keep to my salad untill SE come out.
---------------
many thanks to [Krueger] Dr. Stein, mamaich, itsme, edsub...
you are great man.
Most of the post regarding ROM Salads and customizations are beyond what I wish to perform on my device. To dat I have only loaded T-Mobile ROM upgrades that required nothing more than loading them automatically. I currently have the T-Mobile U7K Beta on my MDA II.
Can someone please explain the following:
1. Is there another T-Mobile 1.72 WWE available that I can load, non-beta?
2. I see other Custom ROMs on this site that state T-Mobile. Can I simply load those automatically or will I have to get into country ID, .nbf files, etc?

Official T-Mobile
Hi. Gratefuled
maybe this can help you : :?: :?:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11169
ajong,
Thanks for the link. I have looked at that page/thread, but I think what I want is still not available.
I'm looking for an official T-Mobile 1.72 ROM, si I can get rid of the 1.72 Beta, or I'm looking for someone's custom ROM that I can load just like I could an official one. In other wors the custom I suppose would be ok, but I do not want to mess around with opeing the ROM and disecting and changing certain settings. Like I say, it just may not be out there.

You mean to downgrade not to decrease So, if it is a "virgin" phone you first have to unlock it than look for a WM 5.0 OEM firmware, there are a lot of links in one topic, just search for it.
Is there any WM 5.0 for Nike?
downgrade
ok
it is not virgin
if I have WM 6.5 ROM which is running only with specific radio can I change it to see the diference
because my real problem is poor gsm signal
and one more
if want to install WM 6.5 ( beta of course
do I have to downgrade from WM 6.1 to 5.0
@vcdwelt yes, there is a WM5 version for Nike 100, mine comes with this (from Orange)
@ciawarhater if the radio reception quality is your problem, you don't have to install another OS, most of the cooked versions doesn't contain a RADIO firmware, so you have to look only for another RADIO and keep the existing OS. From what I read version 1.65.28.25 is the best original RADIO for Nike (good reception and the best power consumption). You can get this RADIO if you flash an OEM WM6 which comes with this RADIO built in. Look for this version RUU_Nike_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.1_Radio_NikeMR_1.65.28.25_signed_Ship.exe. You can also try other RADIOs to see which one is the best for your needs.

@mishu
ok thanks
but if I have WM 6.1 and want to flash another WM 6.1ROM do I have to downgrade to 5.0 first??
or just install another ROM ??
maybe this is stupid question but I am newbie and don't want to crash my Niki
You said that your phone is already "prepared", I mean it is not virgin. Is it HardSPL? If it is you can write any other ROM, cooked or OEM. If it is not, search for the topic how to unlock your phone then you can start playing with ROMs. DO NOT ATTEND TO FLASH ANOTHER ROM WITHOUT UNLOCKING YOU PHONE! Good luck! Only the first time is difficult, second time is always better!
ok
yes
I allready did HardSPL and SIM&CID unlock
so now can I flash any ROM ??
I mean even WM5 if I have WM 6.1??
or WM 6.5
yes, you can, even Android if you like!
HI
Can anyone tell me if I can upgrade to WM6.5 (english) from WM6 (CE OS 5.2.1622 - Build 18128.0.4.4)
HTC Touch Dual (NIKI100) Radio is: 1.58.1627.
Do I have to update the radio to 1.65 ? if so,...um...how do I do that?
Which WM6.5 Rom would I then need to flash to end up with 6.5 in english on my Touch Dual?
Could someone please put me out of my misery if it's a "no"..........I think I can handle it.....
Have you even looked at the rest of the threads here? There are quite a few WM6.5 roms floating around and a lot of them are english.
Upgrade yes or no
Yes Lukesky,
Thanks for your reply..yes. I've been reading these forums for around 2-3 years now so I know the roms are out there of course, but that wasn't my question. I have seen some horror stories too of some people upgrading and having the wrong radio version installed and ending up with big problems. My Touch Dual is quite old now with an older radio version than most I see here. So, of course I can download a WM6.5 in english, but my question is firstly, can I upgrade the radio version (without my phone being rendered useless !)because it seems that most 6.5 versions require a radio of at least 1.65 , and then a suitable version of WM6.5 after that. Just need a yes or no answer really...
Regards
keeezy

an official 6.5 rom for the nike is not available! the last available official htc rom for the nike is a 6.1, but i think htc dont release a official 6.5 rom .
here a french rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529795
i think only this french 6.5 rom for the nike is available, but I'm not sure
Ok thanks !
upgrade 1st to latest version of 6.1 available from HTC ( official version that match you CID/language).
this will upgrade your radio so you don't have to upgrade radio, also you will have a original rom that your original spl will accept if you mess up ( forget to HardSPL ).
run SoftSPL and flash HardSPL 1.22
flash a WM6.5 rom
you could brick your phone but i think the dangerous part is flashing HardSPL.
while original SPL is there u can flash original rom (WM6.1) and after anything by starting into bootloader tricolor screen (Pwr+Camera after reset).
Syre....thanks for your guidance..just what I needed.
Syre,
Thank you so much...that is what Forums are for....help from other users who know about specific situations without all of us having to read through hours and hours of threads. You da man...
Have a drink on me and tell the barman that keeezy will pay for it !! (don't think that's gonna work somehow !!! still, thanks guy)
