New Manipulator: Dumping Radio ROM - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Minor update:
There's a new version of the XDA Manipulator: 1.02
* does even more paranoid checking before allowing IMEI change
* 'Hidden' feature: Ctrl-R dumps the 4MB radio ROM to c:\RS-x-xx.bin.
(this takes half an hour or so: blame the serial port and the fact that
we need to use AT commands to ask for 4 MB, 64 bytes at a time, in
hex)
Please note that apart from studying and collecting them, there is absolutely nothing useful one can do with such an image. Yet...

Does the manipulator require a sim in the XDA to operate?

do i need a serial cable for the manipulator?
thnkxs

for the time being i think the manipulator only support Serial Cable...

yes it needs a serial cable, we have made some using the schematics from XDA-DEVELOPERS page.

Cable you can find searching E-Bay or for bigger qtty, here in China.
Many thanks to the xda-developers for their schematic.

QTEK and 2003

I cannot find a good 2003 for my QTEK. I tried the 4.00.5, 4.00.10, 4.00.11 and 4.00.16 on my QTEK, and had the SD Card erasure problem with one of them, and with others after a few hours, radio buttons and checkboxes on dialog disappear.
Anyone can help ?
Just out of curiosity what radio stack are you running?
I use radio 3.19.01.
I used to have to radio dead signal, and I broke my screen. when the device returned from repair (EUR 140, incl taxes), I had this version on it, and I have no more problem since then
Take care (of your device!).
Hi ..
How did u manage the upgrade ... EXE file or SD and boot loader ??
I couldn't do it with the EXE method till now, and have no budget for SD and reader
I also have the QTek 1010, rom 3.18.04, radio 3.23.01. Im also keen on upgrading to 2003. Would like to know which version to use and should I upgrade my radiostack to any specific version, eg. o2's 4.21?.

I use the SD card method. Fortunately, I made a Backup of my rom on a sd before, and a backup of all the content, so I've been able to rollback to 3.16.13 with no problem.

I read alot about avoiding playing with the Radio stack and specialu with the 4.21 one since you can't roll it back. may be you should check with your local providor.

Where did the error come from? This rom is for HTC' device only!!! When you have a Dopod or other device, you could not flash this rom on it.
I have flashed it on my P4350 perfectly!
My device is HTC P4350 ( but keyboard is german - may be could not up WWE?) the error: "Invalid Vendor ID", have to cost 38$ to unlock?

German rom or WWE-rom is not the issue when the rom is for HTC! There is no need to pay any cent when upgrading your device with a new HTC rom. Have you ever flashed any device? Please recheck your PC, is there NET CF2.0 installed?
I think it is !
German devices are also locked and you get "INVALID Vendor ID" when trying to flash any different rom.
For my P4350 from Germany, only the equivalent rom works - Unfortunately there is none by now.
What has NETCF to do with that process ? Maybe i am wrong but you can also flash a new rom out of the bootloader promt, and then no software on the device can make a difference.

Based on my experience with my HTC P4350, at the begining it had a German rom then I flashed the version 1.18... (I dont remember the exact number). That's it! Now it has the newest version 5.4.405 and runs perfectly!
I do think it should be something wrong with your rom upgrading process.

Bootloader = camerabutton + commanager butto --> hold - tap reset button --> and hold camera and comm as long as bootscreen comes. DO NOT loose cammera+comm!!!!

YOu have to change some registry settings. the english keyboard is 0409, the german 0407 for example. Don´t know exactly where all the local values are listed.
Try to use the search for keyboardlayout or keyboardchange.
It might be in another subforum - because it is equal to many devices.
good luck

I don't understand something.
You said that if you push camerabutton + commanager, and holding(or pressing I think, cause if I hold it.. it doesn't do nothing) I will see the bootloader?
If I do that, I don't see the bootloader, I only see it if I push camera only.
Creo que entiendes el español. Si pulso el boton de camara + commanager(el de arriba del marcado rapido), y mantengo el reset, deberia arrancar el bootloader, pero en mi PDA, si hago esto, no hace nada. Solo aparece el bootloader si mantengo la camara y enciendo.

multumesc pentru linkuri.
am ajuns la conluzia ca cel mai bun rom e ala cu care vine telefonul din fabrica.am instalat wm5 original htc si merge telefonul super in comparatie cu orice wm6 care l-am incercat de la diferiti cookeri.
daca ai vreo sugestie in legatura cu ce rom ar trebui sa incerc e bine venita.
thx for the links
i come to the conclusion that the best rom is the one that comes with the device from the manufacter.i instaled wm5 from htc an the phone works great in compare with ani other mw6 rom that i tryed from diferent rom cookers.
if you have any sugestion in what rom should i try it is welkomed.

I can not recommend any ROM to you, it would be against my principle - flaming noobs asking about "which ROM?", "what ROM version?" and so on.
I can only tell you that fastest ROMs are the ones based on WM6.1.
The rest is up to your needs.
ya thx for the answer.
wm5 much faster

He was not mocking, it's just a saying, I was trying to show you "the way". But hey, it's a free world, everyone is entitled to their opinions, I know I have tried all WWE ROMs from WM5 to WM6.1. Have you?
i did not tryed all off them.i trayed 15 and none of them was good.
i tested various apss on wm5 and wm6 and i did not see ani diference in the performance off the apss.now i wana try the official wm6 from dobod to see how is it.
the batery consumtion in wm5 is much lower than in wm6,probapli because it uses less ram.
maybee i do no how tu configure it.

[Q] qTek S100 improvements

Hello guys!
I own a qTek S100 that was once a TMN cell phone, but now is unlocked and is using a Vodafone Portugal sim card. As you know, the phone is equipped with the Windows Mobile 2003, and its version is:
4.21.1088 (Build 15045.2.6.0)
The ROM of the device is:
1.12.00 WWE
What do you, experts, advise, to improve this cell phone, and make it even better than it already is?
Apps, ROMs, and everything you know better than I do, are welcome!!!
Thank you in advance!

You can try Cotulla's Wm6.1 ROMS
and you can also trash that racist vodafone scumbags and pick a real SP
Thanks for your answer, Riki! I never thought about that connection! Quite interesting!
Anyway, I'm a bit afraid of trying Cotulla's ROM because perhaps it wouldn't work, and then I'd lose my cell phone.. Do you think it's safe to try it? Isn't there too much of a risk?

I have that problem too on my 2nd hand Magician, I've bought it that way because I'm using this a test device.

Eu comprei o meu S100 já com esse problema, se for o mesmo problema do meu então deve ser a coluna interna do telefone avariada. Este telemovel tem duas colunas de som, uma normal por exemplo que é utilizada pelo Windows media player, e a outra que é utilizada pelo telefone. Tenta o seguinte, quando fizeres ou receberes uma chamada, coloca-a em alta-voz (pressiona longamente o botao verde para atenderes em alta-voz) e confirma se assim já consegues ouvir. Se conseguires, é a coluna interna do telefone que avariou. Há um tipo no Algarve que arranja isso, mas cobra ainda um pouco carote, e tens de enviar pelo correio. Eu não enviei porque o meu magician já tem montes de probs e eu uso isto para outras coisas que não telefonar Um abraço

About the radio version, I recommend you continue to use 1.12.00, I have it instead of 1.13 because Cotulla ROM's only work on 1.12 and since I'm always changing between 6.1 and wm2003, I always leave it with 1.12

Thanks.. Since I hear all the other noises, it's probably the call-speaker that is malfunctioning.. Anyway, since the last time I came here, that speaker came back to life and now is dead again, so, I just carry a pair of headphones on my pocket, that I use whenever I want to call or answer people.. It's a bit annoying because the wires keep tangling up, but has its advantages..
If you flash Cotulla's ROMs, you can then return to WM2003?
And besides those ROMs, what more do you advise me to do?
I have at home one of those Samsung Vodafone 360 M1, which was offered to me by a magazine to which I collaborate. But that SO (LiMo) is buggy as hell, so, it's now in my desk, on my room, with no use.. And with 90% of my contacts, because I couldn't find a clever way to pass them to the qTek again..

Speaker back to life!
Another doubt. My cell phone now periodically shuts down my calls, at 8 minutes.. What can I do? How can I solve this?
My qTek is now doing Hard Resets every day, with no apparent reason. What do you think it's causing this?
Sorry about the late reply, but Android is now the king! anyways that also happens to me, it's because of a red switch located on the right side of the phone, when you remove the battery.my solution was to put a piece of paper so it doesn't hard reset.good luck!

I had this same problem years ago. The device has two speakers. One at the back for the multimedia purposes and the other one at the top front for hearing calls. The front speaker got damaged and i had to get it replaced at a local shop. Then it worked like a charm!
And that ROM works.

If u have off rom wm5 + off updater it can be wm6.1/5.
If no = no update
Hello ASakovoy,
I know how you feel... At least WM 5 will be supported for a little while longer. I've been trying to upgrade a WM 2003 iPAQ (Next to be dropped from support). It is hard finding upgrades for these machines.
Since HP never issued an upgrade for the rx5900 series you will have to try your luck Googling for ROMs. Someone may have cooked one for your device. I've found that lots of persistent searching is better to get results than just asking and hoping someone who knows finds your request. Sorry, the searching really is up to you. I hope you have better luck than I have had so far.
HP does have Tom Tom 6 Western Europe for download still:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsuppor...cc=us&swItem=ip-48733-1&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN
I assume it is in ENGlish. You may want to download the file and save it on your PC.
Another option to look at is getting Linux to boot on your device. Most likely you would boot into Linux from an SD card - rather than flashing your ROM. Then you could choose between WM and Linux as needed.
That too appears hard to accomplish. Your device has a similar processor to my rx3115. They both use the Samsung sc3244x cpu with an ARMv4T instruction set. More work has been done (both for WM and Linux) for Intel and Texas Instrument cpu's...
But if you look around enough you might find some options.
Good Luck.
Can't really help with what your asking but would like to make one suggestion for improvement. I'm able to use an 8GB SDHC card with my RX5915 using the hack in this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344338
Only problem I have with the hack is having to do a soft reset to get the card recognized again after the unit shuts off.

Hello RumoredNow:
Thank you for your contribution. look at the link Tom Tom 6.
to me is more important now to get a WM6 or more to serve my "ipaq".
Or all windows mobile (wm6 to wm6) are the same, removing the language, and little else?
supports my "ipaq" a wm6 or wm6.5?
how do I install on my sd card?

para mi es mas importante ahora conseguir un WM6 o superior que sirva a mi " ipaq".
O todos los windows mobile (wm6 contra wm6) son iguales, quitando el idioma, y poco mas?
soporta mi "ipaq" un wm6 o wm6.5?
como lo instalo en mi sd card?
The answers are never easy, I'm finding out...
You may want to look at my thread of what I've been going through to try and upgrade an old iPAQ:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=981868
Are you asking how to install a ROM flash from an SD card?
To upgrade your OS off the card?
First you need someone who has a compatible ROM. That's what you have to search for.

Hi RumoredNow , I'm reading all your lengthy post, with the difficulty that my English is very bad and usually need a translator (google translator), so the translation is not perfect, and therefore the understanding is more complicated.
And it is clear that the important thing is to find a wm6 rom or above compatible (or a cooked wm5.1 ...).
The other day I saw a video on my ipaq and I see that has features that I do not see in my Poquet ... so I think it's a cooked wm5.1 version.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=py1d3imfb9u&feature=player_embedded
If it is true that is cooked, it means that deveria be a there to download ... where? that is the question .....
SORRY......I saw a problem in the direct link of the video.
to see him, I'll put the link before and so you just have to click on the video where it says:

Hola RumoredNow , me estoy leyendo todo tu extenso post, con la dificultad que mi ingles es muy malo y necesito un traductor habitualmente(google traductor) , de esta manera la traduccion no es perfecta, y por tanto la comprension es mas complicada.
Y esta claro que lo verdaderamente importante es encontrar una rom de wm6 o superior compatible (o un wm5.1 cocinado...).
el otro dia vi un video sobre mi ipaq y veo que tiene funciones que yo no veo en mi poquet...por tanto creo que es una version cocinada de wm5.1.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=py1d3imfb9u&feature=player_embedded
Si es cierto que esta cocinada, quiere decir que deveria haber una por ahi para descargarla...donde? esa es la cuestion.....
LOL - I have seen that video. That is my iPAQ model series (rx3000) they show on there.
That is not an Operating System. It is just a dressed up display to LOOK like iPhone.
It is only eye-candy. If you take your dog and put a child's costume on him so he is dressed up like a cat - he will still BE a dog and ACT LIKE a dog. Same thing. You just dress the iPAQ in the costume of iPhone, but it still would BE WM 5.

I Own an rx 5910. I have done quite a bit of research and so far I can tell you that: there is no possibility NOW of upgrading it to wm6. . Actually it seems that most probably it will never happen: to have wm 6 on rx 5900 series. If you are interested, I could post two or three links of threads in this forum and elsewhere that make this very clear.
In the youtube post you make above, there are many videos involved and am not sure which one you are referring to. If it is the one on voice commands on rx 5910, you simply have to get voice to go. I have it installed in my iPAQ and from time to time I do use it when am driving.

It could happen if someone could get rx5000 Series ROM update files.
As they are available to repair and service centers. Example [here]

Hi, I saw the link, and promise the latest version of Windows Mobile to put ... but it is an ambiguous answer, because if it does not support anything more than wm5.1, they charge you 27 euros for walking the ipaq (for nothing )....

Yes, maybe you're right, but if it seems it is impossible to upper windows, our iPAQ's, we would have to ask whether we settle for a custom rom of wm5 ... ..
even so, do not give up ..

They have a WM5 ROM, but it means that iPAQ update files for rx5000 Series does exist and if I could get those files - most likely I would be able to make a WM6.1 or WM6.5.x ROM.
Hey now Spiaatie - if you're taking requests...
I've been trying to find someone who can cook a ROM for iPAQ rx3115 (straight Pocket PC - no phone). Samsung sc32440 CPU @ 300 mhz. 64MB RAM 32MB ROM...
I have the last update of WM 2003.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/i6k0935chhkgzlh/iPAQ rx3115 ROM 1_01_11.exe
There are a lot of rx3115 owners dying to upgrade. If you cooked a WM 5 of 6.1 ROm for that device I would make sure to spread your fame both far and wide.

Sorry to say, but it's not possible. WM5 needs at least 64MB ROM. And there is no WM5 kernel for iPAQ rx3115 - only HP can make it. Windows CE4 and CE5 have completely different memory managament.

Theoritically I could make a new ROM, but I still need shipped ROM.
Now I can't do anything, because there is NO ROM file for rx5900 Series iPAQs.

If it is true .... it is almost impossible to find ... unless you could copy mine own ...

There is no use of your ROM, as update loader software also is needed.
