I've got a Qtek 1010
Model No: PW10A1
ROM Verison: 4.00.05 ENG (Cooked from www.yorch.net)
ROM date: 06/05/03
Radio Version: 3.25.01
Protocol Version: 32S54
Ever since I upgraded the Rom my signal reception has gone down the drain... (meaning if I'm standing on top of the water tank of my 12 floor building I get a maximum of 2 bars and the voice quality is crap).
So I want to upgrade the radio to 4.XX (from Yorch), but before I do so I want to make a backup of the radio. Is there any way to do this with out using a serial connection. If not then is there some place where I can get this version of the radio (the local provider in Saudi Arabia is like not having a provider at all... and is a pain to deal with).
Any help would be greatly appriciated.

I have a Siemens SX56 using AT&T Wireless as a carrier.
The phone is running the following:
ROM Verison: 3.14.03 ENG
ROM Date: 09/27/02
Radio Version: 6.12
Protocol Version: 324e4
I was wondering if this is the newest radio version and software ROM version I can use. I went to O2's site and found other versions, but being new to the xda, I don't want to screw things up. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :shock:
You sould not use an european rom en radio on an american device.
Because your radio is 900/1900 band and the european is 900/1800 band.
You may be able to use the rom update but I'm not sure, but you can not use the radio update.

Thanks....
Are you sure about the rom update?
I am using 3.14.03
Is there any list anywhere that describes the difference between the versions?
Thanks,
Bob
Did someone upgrade his/her Asian XDA (EN language) to PPC2003 ?
Any problems ?
From what version (sw/radio) ?
Let's exchange our experiences.
Thanks,
Yes, I did. I upgraded my XDA from the shown in O2 Asia to:
ROM Ver: 4.00.01 ENG
ROM date: 05/16/03
Radio Ver: 4.21.00
Protocol Ver: 32S54
So far so good.
Dear beeheij,
how come did you upgrade radio version to 4.21.00 ? Did you get it from non-asian O2 web sites (UK) ?
On this page http://www.myxda.com/web/template/SoftwareUpgradeIntro.vm
you can find latest versions as follows for Asian XDA:
ROM version: 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date: 10/11/02
Radio: 4.17
Protocol: 32S54
Did you use wm2003.exe (obtained from here) with cradle and USB ?
Did you check GPRS, GSM, ... ?
Thank you !
Hi Brix3,
I did upgrade the RSU from O2UK. My XDA original version of ROM and RSU was the one that is provided by the O2-Asia. I upgraded the RSU from O2UK because I thought I could get an improvement on the signal reception, but it seems to be useless. In fact, my wish is to get back to the RSU 3.17, but I could not. I got all sort of error messages, and it is dangerous to play around with RSU. The signal meter in RSU 4.21.00 seems to be unreliable and poor.
Yes, I upgraded my ROM with the WM2003.exe using ActiveSync 3.7. The GPRS and GSM are all working well so far. I like WM2003, in particular because of the SMS facilities.
Let me know if I could be of help further.
yeah well i tried wm2003 on my xda, but things got worse. i got pops in my calls, frequent disconnections and basically very poor connection. loved the OS, a bit slow though, but nevertheless i'll wait for the latest version. now on SER 1.2, a lot nicer, but very cluttered!
Hi all. I'm new to this world here, but have been using my Himalaya (or o2 as we know it here in Indonesia) for the past half year now, and am loving it.
The only drop of rain in my otherwise sunny day of using my o2 is that my bluetooth refuses to receive files from other mobile phones, most noticeably from Nokia phones. I understand I can upgrade the ROM of the phone, so that the bluetooth works better. Under my Device Information, the below is listed:
ROM version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM date: 02/20/04
Radio version: 1.08.00
Protocol version: 1337.18
ExtROM version: 1.66.165
I'm also using a Win XP computer, and want to learn how to upgrade my ROM. Please help me with this...

Hello,
I would like to direct this question to those who reside in Canada Ontario, but more specifically Toronto. What Radio version + Rom are you using with your network provider?
I’m encountering weak signal and a few hang ups, and I suspect it maybe due to the radio version.
Thank you in advanced for your help.

This is the current setup -
