Hello all,
I have upgraded my Qtek 1010 form its original Rom lvl to T-Mobile 4.00.21 Eng,
I had couple of problems with this Upgrade, so I decided to fallback the changes but whenever I run PROGRAMM A I got the following msg in the DOS session:
ERROR: GetConnectionType - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
error getting connectiontype
I don't know where the problem is!!!!
Please help me to move on.
Thanks in advanced.
Best regards,
John. :roll:
Hi ..
if you took the time to read through this forum before upgrading you should have found that by upgrading to either 4.00.16 or 4.00.21 you have no way to change the ROM except using the SD card method.
Thank you for fast response,
Could you please point me to the right document/Procedure to prepair the ROM on SD and boot from there.
...
John
I managed to download the ROM to SD Hardrest the device, but which ACTION key should I press to accepts the Load from SD?
I've pressed "Power button" and got 4 colors screen "Whit, Red, Green, and Blue" with the title WALLABY Bootloader V5.15 and at the bottom GSM OK......

I have rom 4.00.16 from the kitchen, and i wanted to upgrade the radio.
I had ver. 5.15 and i downloaded the radio upgrade from xda.ie (the first one that apeared in a google "xda radio upgrade" search.
Since it didn't tell me the radio version i was going to upgrade i installed it to the xda, and as soon it finished installed the xda self-soft-reseted and asked me for mim password, i have entered it and it started to do the upgrade by itself and got stuck at 10% for several minutes and frozee there.
I have already soft-reseted, hard-reseted, but without sucess my xda wont boot the OS, only displays the "not for sale" screen with the following info:
G
R
4.00.16

Help please!!!!
I dont have a sd card reader!!!!
Any other possible workarounds???
you can help me here or by my msn messenger: [email protected]
I'm stuck with out a mobile phone.
You have to have a card reader to fix it. There is no other way. You have to upgrade OS (using SD card method) and then try installing radio upgrade again.
I have already done that.
Now i can boot the xda (pressing the volume button) but as soon it starts making the upgrade it says it fails (at 1%)
The worst part is that the xda isn't charging (or it doesn't assume it's charging and that's why it doesn't continue with the upgrade).
I've already tried to copy the gsm soft from a working qtek 1010 using the bootloader gsm to sd method, but no sucess since nothing happens (i insert the serial cable on the xda but mtty.exe doesn't react or recognize the xda - any possibel mistake i'm making here???).
Help most wanted, since i can't afford at this time to pay for a motherboard replacement - this is my only solution according to the qtek technical support here in Portugal (and hey, thanks a lot for your time )
Anyone can please suggest any possible solution?!?!?!?
You can feel free to use my msn: [email protected] to contact me...
I will pass some licenced software to the person that can help me solving my problem!!!!
TIA
Maybe this thread can give you any help :?: :?: http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2489
Why it tries to run upgrade upon boot? When I flashed my OS there were no files under start up folder to run upgrade executable. I suggest boot your XDA and remove everything from Startup folder
My main problem is that i can't get the xda to charge (or at least assume it's charging the led is always off).
Isn't there a way to crack the rsu to avoid him to check battery status an carry on with the upgrade (cracker's welcomed )??
I think that would solve my problem
I can boot the OS by pressing the volume key (already changed to several OS's to see if one coulde handle with the charging problem.)
And i can sync with my desktop.
But i cant upgrade via programme A.
Programme B installs on the xda but when it reboot's it stop's at 1%
I now have a original o2 3.17.3 and my bootloader is 5.15
I've seen that in the bootloader we have the chance to backup the gsm rom to a SD card! But how to restore it??? If anyone can make such a backup and has a way to restore it can you please share it with me???
As i said i don't have the money to exchange my motherboard (that's the answer from QTEK'S support i've got (great guys thank's again for your time)
I've arranged a conmceptronics sd/mmc/ms/sm/etc.../etc... card reader.
So if one finds a way of backing up the gsm rom, copy it to the sd and zip it using the rom tools here available could you please send it to me???
Thanx in advance
Another thing:
with this rom installed if i go to backlight settings it wont turn off the backlight.
Hi,
I need urgent help

-1 damaged xda
-usb cradle
-serial cable
-sd card reader
-1 128mb twinmus sd card
-charger
-etc...
What can i do to solve my problem

Hi,
I was upgrading the software upgarde on my device. I successfully upgraded the Pocket PC software on the O2 XDA, but when I tried to upgrade the GSM radio/GPRS software of the O2 XDa, it gave some error and after this my device is not starting at all. The only mistake I did was that "I did not remove the SIM card before upgrading the GSM radio/GPRS software" The device does not start even after cold booting the same. When I start the device, the O2 screen comes and after a quite long time the main window does come but I cannot do anything. I tried to tap on contacts, time, tasks but nothing happens. I can see the windows logo wall paper but cannot do anything. Please help on how I can restore back my O2 as a cold reset also does not work. :?
Thanks and Regards
Jinesh

Hi,
I have tried all the available options but it still does not work. To restore the ROM how do I get access to the O2 cause niether serial nor USB is detecting it.
Please help.

SD card install guide
Ok here you go, its a little outdated but its what I still use:
Qman's how to use XDArit to write nk.nb1 or nk.nbf to your SD card aka the Bootloader Method!
1. Place XDArit and the nk.nb1 or nk.nbf file in the same folder and start XDArit.
2. Select your SD card (disk drive) from the drop down menu.
3. Select Write to SD
Notice that the Windows CE box is already checked so just click the browse button at the end of that window.
4. Select your (nk.nb1 or nk.nbf) image and then Open
Notice by default XDArit will open looking for a *.nb1 file but if you're going to use a .nbf file you'll have to manually change the "Files of Type" to *.nbf
Notice that nk.nbo / nk.nbo was automatically added as your boot-loader and its check box is unchecked so leave it that way and click OK. XDArit should start writing to the card.
When XDArit has finished writing the image put the SD-card into the XDA and hold the power button and soft reset. You'll be taken to the below screen:
SD DOWNLOAD
Card Type:
CE OS & BOOT
Press action to Download
Or
Press REC to Exit
Press action to download and it will start the download/restore from the SD card.
Follow the on screen instructions once its "Completed" which will consist of a "Soft Boot/Reset".

Hi Rudegar,
I tried the procedure given by you. I was able to write to the flash successfully. After writing to the flash it gave a message "Checksum OK, Please cold reboot to reset".
I did a cold reboot. After starting the O2, it showed the O2 logo screen and after quite a long time, it asked me wether I want to format the SD card or not. After that it took me to the default screen of XDA wher eit showed options like "Add today's date, Contacts, Schedule etc etc. but upon tapping any of the options the O2 behaves erratically. If I tap on today's date it takes me somewhere else. Inshort it does not work.
I again did a cold reboot and now the device is in its original position i.e not going after the O2 logo where it gets stuck up.
One thing I would like to mention is that all these activities have been done putting the O2 on the cardle only as the battery is totally discharged and the device turns on only after putting it on cradle. Even after the cold reboot it does not start unless I put it on the cradle whichis connected to the mains. Is it Ok with this or am I doing something wrong? The battery does not charge and hence I have to do it in this way.
Please suggest what wrong am I doing? Any suggestions from anyone will be welcome.
regards
Jinesh
Hi,
Someone posted the original O2 ROM on this site and I downloaded the same after which I was partially succesful in flashing the ROM and reviving my dead O2 back to half life. :roll:
I burned the ROM on
to my SD Card and flashed the ROM on to my O2. After
successfully flashing the ROM I rebooted the device.
The device now starts Windows but it takes atleast 15
minutes to start. I get the today screen. WHen I cick
on start the start menu appears after a delay of 10
seconds and all applications run normal, however all
this happens only on the Cradle only.
When I go into the Battery Settings it shows "Battery
Status Unknown".
Also none of the phone functions work. The SIM card is
not recognized and in device information it does
dispaly the "IMEI number" and the "Protocl Version"
I am only able to use inbuilt phone applications.
Is there some problem with my battery cause it is not
charging even on the cradle.
Device Information does not show Radio Version, Protocl Version & IMEI number at all.
Can anyone please help me?
hello all,
it means that your radio stack are dead. Currently, We don't have any real method to fix this problem. When the radio stack is error, you can not upgrade it or do anything to make it work. We can only upgrade or downgrade the radio stack if it works. Also if you try to upgrade the radio stack, we realy need to flash the chip using a speceial tool or need the sd card which build in radio stack with we can only flash in bootloaading mode. Howerver, in some case, we can fix it but .... I think it is just lucky or the xda error when battery problem.... in this case, just disconnect the battery few minutes and connect it again by pressing the battery hole.
Regards,
Hoanghon
p.s. I have dead xda. I killed it when I upgraded the RADIO STACK. Therefore, if you are really need to upgrade the radio stack, I recommend use the official upgrade for secuirity. or just upgrade the rom only.
Note:
To eliminating the error, you need to upgrade the rom or the radio stack, you need to check if the rom fix the radio stack or the stack you are trying to upgrade it fix the rom or not.(ie, Tmobile Rom have to use it radio stack built for Tmobile pocket pc...... I know that in some case when we mix between the radio stack and OS it works but I don't think it work propertly. Anyhow the mixing bettween radio stack and OS is very dangerous if it doesn't suppport then you have to reflash the radio stack or rom(the OS is Okay but the keep upgrading the radio stack may cause the radio stack killed)

no way without having special RSU rom update on SD card and run it from bootloader or dissembling the device and reprograming GSM rom on special rom/bios programing socket. (Here on forum is user Cgigate from Toronto CA who can do it but I cant contact him)
Hi all! was hoping someone can advise me what to do...
My device is ESCORT PCT206, which is a turkish version of Wallaby (PW10A1, ROM version 3.14.13ENG, bootloader 3.15).
So, I tried upgrading via SD card and couldn`t get it to work. When I start bootloader I can see that message to press action if I want to download, but when I do I get only regular first screen from where you get those various tests etc.
Then I tried upgrading with XDA Tools and also directly with .exe files (some downloaded from xda-developers ftp, some cooked on romkitchen) and whichever option I try - it simply doesn`t work - pocket pc resets millisecond after the upgrading line shows on the screen and active sync on my PC dies (then when I start it again it won`t sync with pocket pc before restarting windows).
Anyone had similar problems? Or simply knows another way of upgrading to wm2003se or wm2003?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Stefan,
thanks for your reply.
Well, I guess I have - if action button is the central joystick button. If not, then please tell me which one is it...
Thanks!
Hello,
This is my first post on this forum.
Im new to the Pocket Pc's. I got this T-Mobile MDA II from my friend 2 days ago and that was the first time in my life when I touched the PPC.
I have a big problem.
MDA II is not reading the SMS (''the phone is not ready, try again in 15min'').
And another problem is GPRS. MDA says ''connecting'' or something like that, and nothing happens.
The PPC is from Germany, and I live in Croatia. And the language is in English-Germany.. Something is on English, something on Germany.
Can someone explain what's the problem ?
And another question
I download the WM6.1 AKU1.0(build 19199).
I can't get to the Bootscreen mod, I click the middle navigation button, then power button and nothing happens.
And where is the reset button ?
Sorry for my stupid questions and bad english.
But I need some help.. Please!
Please!
I need someone to explain how to install ROM on MDA II.
the reset button is on the left of the charging block ( tiny hole )
follow these instructions
Start your device in bootloader mode by pressing and holding down:
DPad + PowerButton + ResetButton
After a second release ResetButton, then release the rest of them.
Your screen will show word "Serial" at the top.
You are in bootloader mode now.
Place your device in the cradle, ensuring that the cradle
is plugged directly into a USB port on your PC and not to a hub
and that the power supply is connected to the cradle.
It is also a good idea to disable any screensavers on your desktop PC.
Once your device is cradled, the text on the screen will change to "USB".
Run HimaUpgradeUt.exe
Sit back and wait for the Congratulations screen to be displayed
on your PC. Your device will still be displaying 'Upgrading ROM Image, please wait....',
but as long as the PC says it is done, then its all OK.
Detach your device from the cradle.
Now you have to hardreset your device.
Press ResetButton and hold down CameraButton + RecordButton.
Hold them pressed until the "Boot Options" menu appears on the screen.
Select the options as follows:
(for selecting use RecordButton, change values with CameraButton)
Enable KITL -> NO
Clean Registry Hive -> YES
Format Storage -> YES
When done, press DPad and wait until OS starts.
===========================================================================================
PS: Upgrade on your own risk

This is also my 1st post here. But I'd been monitoring the xda-developer forums for a long time. I spend more time reviewing posts rather than posting in forums. Anyways I think I can help. Here's the answer to your question: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HimalayaBootloaderSdCardFlashing. You can also use the search function provided by this website to search for topics that you need.
Thanks for the link which lead me to bootloader info below
"you can connect to the bootloader, either via a serial cable, and use a terminal program like hyperterm. or via usb, and use mtty. make sure you have disabled the serial or usb connection in activesync, before trying to connect to the bootloader."
So i am guessing its both USB CABLE or USB CRADLE got i just purchase one on Amazon for 90 pence

Hello,
I've tried to reload my TYTN with Vanilla Rom to resolve the 'no gsm' message on it. During the flash, Usb link is lost and now when I turn on the PDA, I've just the screen above.
Now, the USB port don't work, when I connect the PDA on PC it don't see it. Maybe it is possible to restore it with SD card but how?
Thank you for your help an sorry for my bad english (french...)
Hello,
Nobody coud help me?
Or is that mean than my TYTN is definitely out?
Thanks.
get a storage card less than 2GB, format it and in your PC rename the Signed.nbh file to HERMIMG.nbh. Insert the storage card and put the device in bootloader mode it will start the flash from the sd card
Thanks a lot +QuePPC.
I 've execute your instructions, it better but after bootloader, I have wrote in blue on white screen 'loading', few seconds after 'checking' and finally '00028002' 'not allow'.
After that, the pda return on 4 colored blocs, on the upper (red) there is writting :
in white : HERM200 IPL-1.00
in yellow : HERM200 SPL-1.04
On the lower bloc (white) 'Serial'
When I reset the pda, I have these instructions at the bottom of the screen :
M 05
B 04 No GSM
B 05 D 3.22.0.0
Maybe this malfunction is due to a wrong rom but how identifie the right rom and where found it ?
Maybe it's due to the hardspl not installed but how install it wihout usb connection. ActiveSync don't connect the pda.
Thanks a lot for your help, have a good day.
