Redio Version : 4.21.00
Protocol Version: 32S54
so Mr.ARZLEB do u suggest anything for making this qtek arabic enabled thanx alot
Qtek and crushed motherboards
The only way you'll crush your Qtek upgrading from Pocket PC 2002 to Windows Mobile aka Pocket PC 2003 is if you physically sit onto of the device while the upgrade is being processed. If you believe this, boy do I have some very cheap igloos in Alaska for you to buy!

Enjoy
Thanx ARZLEB
Sorry for asking much
but the www.pocketpc4arab.com is not working with me is it with u
then the post u put contains beta arabization do u suggest me to use it and when i back up my rom on a MMc card can i use this card for another programs or i should leave it as a back up only
thanx
Falconsql
www.pocketpc4arab.com Seems down try this one:
http://www.ppcme.com
Actually i don't suggest to use Arabic in general this is my opinion as what to do its your decision.
As for the MMC i suggest when you back up your ROM it not to use it for any other thing even if you try the MMC would require format to be able to write on it anything else so that mean you will loose all the Backup data.
If you need anything else just keep asking till you get all the anwsers...

Cool - are you using DeJe's drivers?
http://www.deje.gmxhome.de/
Note - I have done / do this with my Sigmarion III (currently) and a Toshiba e7xx (past) - however both are USB and not serial.
I'd definitely be interested in how you did it too!

hi jmbneaf - sorry a bit off topic;
your profile show :---- current: XDA-I WM2k3 w/ PPCtechs 64MB & Battery Upgrade - ROM 4.01.16 cooked / RS 6.24.01. So it is possible to upgrade the XDA-I? and what do you mean battery upgrade, to what (did not know it was possible)???

search ebay for sx56 battery pack.
good luck.

ntabikha & iggy - mine doesn't have that bulky external battery thing ... :?
The guys at Pocket PC Techs did the upgrade 8) - physically added another 32 Mb of SD RAM to the motherboard and then changed out the internal battery for a bigger better more efficient one. So, I have 64Mb of usable RAM, same 32 Mb ROM + a 1800 mAh battery (stock battery is a 1500 mAh with less efficient charging). I go about 1.5-2 days between charges depending on my usage habits.
So to the naked eye mine appears stock, but is anything but. Check out the upgrades here: http://www.pocketpctechs.com/Services.asp?type=TMOB
Tell Mr Wesson and the guys I referred you to them - you'll be glad you did. :wink:

jmbneaf, i know that upgrade too, but... my battery now is 3300 mah
average use 12 hours of always-on mp3, radio steaming or chatting.
i wish there was a way to mount an sd card internaly though .

If you look carefully you should see that the discussion is about the XDA1/Qtek1010/SX56 or whatever they call it. Not the XDA2. Hence no bluetoth.
raptorz2003x,
How is the documentary going? Do you have any pictures or additional details to share?
This is a neat project I agree.

Protocol VErsion:1337.24
ExtROM cerion: 1.72.126
I have installed on it:
SPB POcket PLus 2.1
Micosoft Money 2004
Flash player
Microsoft CHess

My XDAII goes dead once per week. I can only take the Battery out for a certrain amount of time so that all the internal batterie is off, then I have to reinstall everything.
Can anyone helps me to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Saadi
good for you that ur unit goes dead after a week. Maybe you should get an extra battery? U can take out your battery and still have 20 mins B4 ur internal Li-ion goes dead. All your files will be lost. Hope this might help.

I agree: I have the exact same issues with my QTEK2020 and the only two same softwares I installed are SPB Pocket Plus 2.1 and Flash Player.
Now, because my unit crashed so many times (about once a week as well) and after several recoveries with xBackup, some of my ~1000 contacts are no more synchronized with Outlook (i.e. they are on the PC but not on the QTEK2020). It's a real mess.
I can't rely on this PDA and I keep loosing my last inputs (new contacts, new notes, new calendar items, etc).
Does anyone know of a reliable software that would indicate the battery level in the top bar ?

Thanks you all for your replies.
My problem is not that the battery is empty. it is a software issue.
I think it comes either for the OS or from a software installed.
Now I have the problem once per day.
Again thanks a lot for all of you.

Dear Xda Experts!
My name is Guy, I own an Xda Atom and I critically need your help...
About a month ago my life became miserable as the wifi module of the poor device has stopped functioning completely: It doesn't start when I click Menu->Turn on Wifi, doesn't respond to wireless manager clicks, fails the self diagnostics test etc.
After looking all over the relevant internet forums, I've found This post, suggesting I put the atom in the fridge for a few minutes. I've done that - and suprisingly - the wifi began functioning for a few minutes time. After that, it returned to its normal state of misfunctioning.
I understand that the problem is being caused by some sort of a heating problem within the device.
Is there a solution to this problem?
Rom experts (especially Jiggs) : is there a registry edit that might help, maybe to take some pressure of the processor, or to prevent the disappearance of the wifi as the device heats?
I bought the Atom especially because the wifi ability, as it is highly important to me, and as for now I'm seriously disappointed. The O2's support's laconic response was "Try the official ROM" (My warranty period is over).
Needless to say, I have already tried Hard resets, Rom upgrades of all kinds, flashing and reflashing, taking out the battery for a few days and nothing worked.
Please try to assist,
Your help will be much appreciated.
Thank you all,
Guy Sando.
Same with me.
Hi Guy,
I have the same problem with my Atom.
I tried to reinstall ROMs/Hard Reset and nothing helped.
One day in the morning after charging it all over the night, the WIFI suddenly started to work, but only for few hours.
Hope someone would have an idea.
Yaniv.
Do not used wireless manager or the wrlsmgr. try using Wifi Utilty by ALE**** i forget
Bye try to flash with the AKU 3.3.3 or AKU3.3F

Dear Jeffkewin, thanx for the response.
Do you have a link or maybe a bit more specific name of the software that you recommended? (Btw, Software replacement seems a bit like a long shot, because of the fact that the "fridge-therapy" works for the wifi...)
As for the AKU's - I've tried them both, they're really nice, but none of them has fixed my wifi issue...
Maybe The upcoming WM6 Rom will. I keep my fingers crossed...
Thanks again,
Guy.
Can u goto the Settings, Connections, use the Wi-fi Utility.
Ignore the Turn on and off button. Turn on is turn off, turn on is turn on.. that the only text bugs, but the software is working fine.
Try SPB phone suite wireless icon
it happened to me one time while trying to reflashed ROM. When im going to Wireless Manager, I cant open my wifi. But if im trying to open it in SPB Phone suite , its working...maybe try this software. download it and i will give to you the serial for registration. But first try if it is work then thats the time i will give to you...

Thank you Jeffkewin and Generalriden,
Unfortunately, The solutions you proposed are not working. I have tried Phonesuite, Hitch-hiker and many more - none have worked.
I have also tried ignoring the text in the "Wifi utilities" application (In many different Rom versions) - still no good...
Has someone encountered the same problem and got it solved? Is there something about the Rom version that can fix this?
Thanks again,
Guy.
If you're using the official ROM and it's not working, then this is more hardware related. 'Fridge Theraphy' is not normal for your device. You have no choice but to go to service center, have it estimated for cost. You can buy now a brand new Atom at $250 or less.
Alternate solution would be a $50-$100 SDIO wifi card, but I think none would fit the miniSD slot.
There are miniSDIO wifis. They're pretty much the only miniSDIO devices. However, you're still better off getting a new device.
Sounds like your wifi module's overheating. This is a hardware problem (just like cracking speakers) and there's no way to fix it permanently short of a physical repair.
Good News
I had the same problem.
I tried almost every single possible solution which was discussed on this forum, including the Fridge Therapy. Fridge therapy really worked for a couple of minutes.
Finally, I took it to the service center and they said, the problem is with the board and the cost of repair is $400/-.
I was put off and challenged to see, something which works after the fridge therapy will stop working at room temperature.
Finally, I realized, the last thing beyond the ROM which I changed was the MS Active Sync. I had using Active Sync Ver 4.5. It seems to have some conflict. I reverted back to Active Sync Ver. 4.1 and reflased the original rom.
It worked and Active Sync Ver. 4.1 is working perfectly fine for my device. After the WiFi worked, I reflashed it to Jiggs latest WM6 ROM and its working well.
Might sound wiered, but the fact, I could resolve this issue by reverting back to Active Sync. 4.1.
Hope this helps to all dissappointed users of Atom.
Regards,
Anand

Dear Anand,
Thank you very much for your help.
I'm anxious to see if that's gonna work for me as well.
I'll try going back to AS 4.1 right now and will let you know.
Keep your fingers crossed for me!
Many thanks again!
Guy.
I'm happy for you mate, but that just sounds like the biggest load of bollocks I've ever heard it just proves how unpredictible and unreliable our Atoms are, my Wifi has also gone on the blink for one or two weeks at a time and then for no apparent reason it fixes itself. Although I suppose running the Atom Exec rom in the Atom doesnt help nor the fact we run overclock apps to 624MHZ
I have now finished downgrading to AS 4.1 and to the official ROM.
Unfortunately, that did not do the trick. Thinking about it, seems like Homer is right:
The AS doesn't start communicating with the device until its connected to the desktop, after the HR and the SR that follow the ROM upgrade. therefore, there's no obvious reason why it should affect the wifi module, which seems to be off even before that connection. In addition - Anand, how did you get the AS 4.1 to work with the WM6 ROM? Isn't AS 4.5 the only version that works with WM6?
As been said, our devices are totally unpredictable, which is really disappointing. I'm happy for you, for getting everything running, and I hope that my device will do that as well soon.
I'll be more than glad if someone here will be able to assist in that matter.
Thank you all,
Guy.

I have not yet syncronized my device with WM6 and AS 4.1. I just used it to reflash the Atom.
Also, I have heard, of AS to have an impact on WiFi Connectivity in the past.
Mine is still working fine. Infact, WiFi with WM6 is working much better than WM5.
Also, another thing which my help to have a logical conclusion is the fact, that when I used to sync with my laptop's WiFi on, my PDA's WiFi used to dissappear and when the Laptop's WiFi was off, it used to work well.
To be honest, I tried many things, starting flashing the first Atom update to the cooked roms, with AS downgrade. I wanted to share my experience, was quite excited that it may help many other like me.
Feel sorry for you :-(

Anand
WIFI mulfunction
It sounds completly reasonable - a sofware conflict.
I have the same the problem.
However, one morning after recharging my ATOM for a complete night, the WIFI module suddenly worked in the morning till I......used the active sync 4.5 to synchronize it.
I will try to reinstall the 4.1 version and see how it works for me.

Hello people ! My name is Gabriel, and... as you can see, i'm a beginner.
I just got my Nokia Lumia 800, with the 7.5 update (7.10.8773.98). I had a hard time trying to learn what this phone can do, even now it just beats me, K.O.'s me. I saw the Bluetooth Sharing it's not available on 7.5, neither I can transfer contacts from phone to SIM. I searched all over the web to see if the new update ( 7.8 ) can help me in any way.
I kinda didn't liked what i saw. If I upgrade it to 7.8, my battery phone will literally die. I am using my phone a lot... I've got it Second-Hand, from a buddy. Never asked him if he Hard-Reset the phone or not. What i'm trying to ask you is... can this phone be fixed any way ?
How to fix the battery life problem if I update it ?
Will the Bluetooth Sharing app and the SIM transfer work ?
I'm sorry if there's already a thread for what i asked, i tried to search on the web, fixes, everything... help please ?
