Go here to have a look.
hey, i saw that too this afternoon. wonder if it could be used by english speaking users? it says WWE, so i guess it is in english?
i'm uploading the unpacked installation folder to FTP now. maybe someone who knows his thing, could could magic a .bat file to change the carrier?
I have a S100 bought in Sweden with rom-version 1.3.00 WWE, anyone tried the upgrade on this version?
Is it possible to first upgrade 1.3.00 to 1.3.148? Anyone has a link to such an upgrade?
Appreciate all feedback!
pell0, try www.smartmobile.se go to the update page and enter your IMEI, if your device is supported wich I think it will be you will be abel to download the package and install it, make sure your device is charged to at least 80% befor starting the upgrade. Write a note here when your done so we know if it worked or not.
Or http://www.smartmobile.se/upgrade/upgrade.aspx for the update page directly.
Damned, why don't we have the same in France ..... I can't find who is supporting Qtek and ROM Updates in France ...
Anyway, what's your opinion before/after an update, do you have a backup and then do a restore or do you start from scratch and re-install all programs.
The reason why I'm asking is that some companys recomends the latter, reinstall all programs instead of doing a restore.

OK, i have tested works so great with the update, connection with cradle is 5 times faster, i have 1gb card and lots of ppc movies goeas really fast now, but i recomend an hard reset and reinstallation.
After update I experience that the audio quality is soo much better then before, bluetooth seems more stabel and more easy to connect to. T9 Swedish input, yey that is soo much better then before. Anything els... Camera, better but still not good.
If the unit was a 3 on a scale of 5 before, its at least a 4 now.
After update I did everything from scratch. Why? Just feal so much cleaner then to use a backup.
Tnx Badger for helping me out of a dreadful situation. I am pretty satisfied with my new unit.
The only real difference that i noticed was that the device responed a lot quicker and that i have Swedish, Finnish, Norweigan, Danish T9 Dictionaries. However they only apply when using "Phone Pad" as an inputdevice. Other then that, nothing. It´s still the same dreadful MS BTstack and it still have some bugs. I couldn´t restore. Either from ActiveSync nor from Xbackup. Activesync gave me an error about another version and after using Xbackup the touchscreen did not respond, at all. But i was time for a fresh start anyway,
Hello All,
Thanks for your feedback!
Can you please put your ExtROM content on the FTP?
Thanks !
Thanks, I will update my norwegian Qtek s100 later today. I believe the message about the ROM only working for swedish models are BS... I've used ROMs from qtek.nu earlier (Qtek2020) and they always worked great, don't see what could be a problem now...

Crap! Country ID error... well I guess we need the passwords so we can change the ROM..
Yes...
And how is it possible to obtain this passwd, by deassembling the file, or only waiting someone who already have it (Qtek or HTC team ...) ?
My IMEI number doesn't work! Guess I'll have to talk with their help desk. Sigh...
Skip
Confirming that it won't work with german MDA. This has to be resolved somehow....
could anyone please upload the Swedish, Finnish, Norweigan, Danish T9 Dictionaries for the intellipad - i have the imate jam and can not update...but i am interested in these files due to the fact that i am DANISH
Thanks in advance
worx g8 !
only thingy is that the T9 only worx with phonepad "intellipad".
i cant see why it shouldnt work with the keybord as well.. guess they were in a hurry putting it together...its a big bad not have the correct t9 language when introducing a new modell today..
otherwise im happy with it.
Updating right now, but it doesn't look good!
Well, after reading about this new firmware, I was thrilled!
It will fix some of the few faults I've seen in the S100.
And now, I've downloaded the new firmware, the installation guide, I've backup'ed my old sms's and contacts and done everything I needed to do.
Started installing. The program checked old firmware, gave me the green light and I pressed "Next".
Now it says:
"Checking the information on your device... Please wait...
Please don't disconnect bla. bla. bla."
The thing that concerns me, is the fact that it's been saying that for 10 minutes now, and the computer isn't doing anything (No CPU- or Harddrive-activity).
All the display on my S100 says is "USB" on top and "v1. 00" at the bottom.
If anyone who has done this upgrade could tell me what is supposed to happen and how long it takes, I would appreciate it alot!
Thanks!
Hi,
I recently upgraded my Blue Angel (Yes I know this is a Magician thread!), but the problem you described it exactly the same as what I had happen.
I found that it only ever happened (hung/froze) if I tried to flash it with the SD card in. Not entirely sure why, but whenever I did it without it in it worked fine.
Anyway, you should be able to safely remove the phone from the cradle (it hasn't started yet anyway if it still says USB...). As you remove it it'll change to Serial, but that's fine. Leave the program on the PC running.
Things to try:
First just take out the SD card and see if it works again when you redock it.
Failing that hard reset it (should come back to the same Serial/USB screen) and redock that. If it still doesn't work, then take the battery out, wait 30 minutes or however long it takes for a Magicians backup battery to die (about 25 minutes on a Blue Angel) and then put it back on. If still not working kill the program/reload it, but I'm sure you'll have it working way before that.
Obviously I'm only saying what I've seen from my BA, but it doesn't seem that different. Also I've yet to see one person permanently fry their phone on here so I wouldn't panic yet (if you were - which I know I was!)
Hope that was some help!

I bought this jasjar in Dubai and now want to upgrade the ROM, can I use the worldwide English ROM because this Arabic thing sucks.
Arabic ROM vs. English
Sure you can. Anytime the device is upgradable to any ROM. Certainly you know that the Arabic interface is just a software residing at the Ext_ROM which is always replaceble :wink:
Yes...
As cyber mate said... u can download their latest wwe ROM and install it which will do the installation without Arabic stuffs in it.
Anyway latest Arabic Rom is still not as up to date like WWE one.
Right!!
Though so, thanks for the info guys I am gonna try that in the next couple of hours and see how it pans out.
Nearly lost it
Well I started the upgrade and nearly made the jasjar into a brick.
Somehow after the cold boot it kept rebooting itself the only thing I could see was the clubimate blue screen it wouldnt go beyond that. after that I just removed the battery and sim card for a few minutes and then put everything back in. and it came back on.
The updated ROM works and has skype whereas the arabic did not have that.
I wanted to know about the warning that comes across when the battery is about to die that I will lose all data, is that true?? why would that happen wouldnt a very small charge be required to maintain the integrity of the data, so how to prevent this from happening?
Thats the Part of M$ who doesnt give a **** about Customers.. they dont have time to write new error screen for low battery...
Actually with universal you are not suppose to lose your data since they all stored under ROM instead Ram it should be find even you kept your device away without charging for days.
So dont worry about that error screen.
Please help, I am really desparate at this point. I just got today Qtek S200 in French. After reading most of the messages in this forum, I felt comfortable that I could change the language from French to English. First I installed Active Sync 4.1 in English. Then, I downloaded and ran Lokwiz.bat to unlock the CID. Next i ran CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe (ROM version 2 something) to change the ROM (again i downloaded the file from this site). During the installation everything seemed to go on fine with % sign increasing with time. Then, at the end, it said "Congratulations...." The sign went away on the computer and the PDA went blank. So, I proudly thought that everything was fine. THen the screen started blinking on and off and the red and blue lights of the phone started blinking as well.
Now, no matter what I do nothing works (e.g. hard and soft reset, etc.). Other than taking out the baterry nothing helps. Also, the computer is not recognizing that the phone is connected either.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW if you have seen something like this. I am afraid that i burned my PDA irreparably. Thanks a lot.

Thank you so much for replying to my plea. I was so hopeful but unfortunately what you suggested did not work. I pressed all these three things together and held it down but nothing happens, no color display .
Am I doing something wrong or do you have any other suggestions?
Hi, Unfortunately you have flashed Wizard instead of Prophet ROM. I did that when I first got my Dopod and could not find a way to fix it. After many desperate tries, I finally send it for service. I was fortunate that they replace the entire mother board (with different serial number) without charge. Looks like the wizard ROM kills the prophet. If someone or you can figure out how to recover from this without swapping the device, please let us know - I think there are many who would benefit from the experience.
My lesson learnt - only stick to prophet ROM for prophet device!!
I called up support and they told me that it is possible to do it if one has a software (does not need a special machine or anything), they just can't email me the software.
Any suggestions?

I have just aquired an xda ii from a friend and am very eager to get started but I have no clu eon what exactly I need to do.
First off I have read the FAQ's and what not and understand what everything seems to do.
However I beleive my xda is locked as when I try to put in my 3 sim card, it just says invalid sim or not recognized. Searching around the forums I have located the various unlocking tools but am not sure which one to go for. Also is there even any chance of it working with my 3 sim card?
Secondly, do I need to upgrade anything with it? Ideally what I want is to run tom tom navigation on it aswell as all the others features of the xda. (Im still searching around on how I check my version exactly >.<)
Thirdly, there appears to be a problem with the sound. Sometimes it beeps and such as normal, other times it dosent. Is there anywhere that can repair these sort of faults?
Thank you in advance for the time!
EDIT:
After playing around I found the information
ROM Version - 1.72.00WWE
ROM date - 03.15.04
Radio version 1.17.00
Protocol version 1337.28
ExtROM version 1.72.181
Is there anything I can upgrade it too? Or worth doing?
"However I beleive my xda is locked as when I try to put in my 3 sim card"
recall 3 blocking their very simcards to be able to work in no 3g phones
so it's likely that it's not your phone which is locked
you can upgrade it to wm5 if you like
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Windows_Mobile_5
Ah I see now, thank you.
I will just get another sim no problem.
I am interested in going up to wm5 but have a few more questions.
I see there are many different ROM versions, any particular one to go for? Will I still be able to use the camera & phone part? And also is there anyway to keep the ROM I have now and restore if anything nasty happens?

I have a himalaya just like yours, I've upgrade to a lot of ROMs here in the forum, and currently, I decided to go to helmi AKU3.5 SP2. But this ROM lacks of software you will be needing most. But as helmi said, you can install softwares as you like, and i bet this is really fast. You can also try C_Shekhar's Rom, it has softwares built on it. But helmi's ROM is faster. you can also adjust your 15mb storage to 30mb storage so you can install more software you like. Unlike WM2003, it uses RAMdisk for the installation of your softwares and it uses 128mb. At first you will be having hard time to understand the flow, but you of course you can learn from it.
Nweiz, what country are you from?
Okay so all I got to do is install this rom, and go searching for the software to pwoer the phone, camera, etc?
Is there anyway to backup / restore my current ROM and all the other parts I should need incase the worst happens?
I only just got this and I really dont want to break it because I have wanted one for ages
"phone, camera"
is a part of the rom
Brilliant! Looks like things should be alot easier than I thought.
Still playing around, I found my bootloader version is 1.03, does this matter much?
And I have found some backup tools by searching through the wiki pages, but they dont seem to work for my smart phone?
http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=62
Big help! Thanks!
Okay looks like im all set, back this up. Download the rom, install.
Hopefully all should go as planned.
Just one small little off topic thing, I noticed the problem with my sound is that when its in the cradle, all sounds work. However when it is out the cradle, sounds are intermittant. Software or hardware fault would anyone say?
Okay upgrade went without a problem and its now running fine.
However the only problem I noticed is that it does not detect the backup battery, im guessing this means the battery needs replacing?
I literally just noticed a problem with the charge socket too, looks like the pins on the right are slightly bent yet it still fits and charges.
Could this explain the sound issues? As when its in the cradle and on charge it works fine.

man, i think its bcoz wm5 is designed for not using the back up battery. Bcoz wm5 uses storage for installation of your application (default), and even if the battery drains, it will not hard reset. i guess.
Hello
Just installed the latest official HTC ROM - RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship - from the HTC website on my device. Upgrade went smooth as so many upgrades (with other phones) before. When it boots 'smart mobility' is shown in it's normal colour for around two seconds during which the font gets some sort of dropshadow effect (much like looking through unclean glasses) and then turns cyan. WM start screen is displayed as I describe as watercolour. Switching off screen and back on gets the normal graphic to live but still with a reoccuring 'smear effect' much like at the start. Device is very sluggish and freezes. Wifi and BT are on by default, no Phone and data reception. When connected to PC it shows ActiveSunc connected icon but 'PC says no' - Little Britain Syndrme. What do you think I should do? I can't revert back to the original ROM as I can't find it anywhere.. can't reinstall the current one as of version message.. in fact can't install any other ROM as I can't get ActiveSync going. Argh! Help! As highly as I think of HTC, this is really screwed up!!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts

I'm not an expert , but def sounds like a wrong hardspl to me. I've had this happen to me twice because of my inexperience the first time and my carelessness the second. Can you redo the hspl somehow and try another maybe xda cooked rom? Or have you already tried to go back to the rom you flashed from? Thats what saved me before. Go to duttys site. He has a bunch of htc roms for D/L. Maybe you can find your old one there.

Thanks for for your thought cbreze. I'm annoyed as everything went by the book and the upgrade went fine until reboot. All I can do is to hard reset the phone at the moment. Can't get an ActiveSync connection going. Any way I can still flash to another ROM without it? Been to dutty's before and there's the same official version that causes me the problem and the Orange UK ROM.. not quite what I had in mind on o2. Can't find the 1.14 ROM which shiped with the device. Any idea where I can get hold of it? Also, I think I have seen a utility somewhere that helps to recover from a bad flash and in the absence of ActiveSync connection. Or was this just a pleasant dream?
Just have seen cRaCKwHoRe post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377 which exactly describes my issue. Will follow that trough but please let me know if you have any additional thoughts. I'm really p***** off with HTC. They could post cRaCKwHoRe's info this on their site. First time I ever got an official ROM and the last as I'm a burnt child. Usually get them from here and it's always first class stuff. Thank you people.
cRaCKwHoRe's instructions did the trick. Panic over. Thank you to everyone whom had a look at the issue and great thanks and deep bow to life saving cRaCKwHoRe. Donation is on the way as soon as I get paid.
Hi all,
I just bought a new HTC Cruise or T4242 china model, and the guy who sell this to me told me that the phone has touchflo 3d and i assumed that all the applications that an original HTC would have.
Anyway, it has wm6.1 i tried to use the gps and simply the software does not run, i tried to install the footprints but aparently i supposed to upgrade the rom or something like that... I AM COMPLETELY NEW at this.
What i want is to have this phone working as an original or better, with all the htc software like gps, footprint, the touchflo 3d or whatever works, and take all advantage possible of having this device.
COULD ANYBODY PLEASE HELP ME TO FIND THE RIGHT ROM, SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS ABOUT HOW TO INSTALL IT (I dont have the knowledge, but i learn fast), AND ALL THE SOFTWARE RELATED...
Thanks in advance, i hope someone can really help me!!!
there is no rom upgrade available (yet), at least not from HTC.
something tells me that something went wrong during installation, because all of it should work.
only one thing: don't overestimate touchflo. it is not 3D i.m.o., maybe 2D....
mikekarim: Try to perform hard reset. Device will go into factory setting and everything must work then.
HTC T4242+ (I need support)
Hi All,
I also have bought an HTC T4242+ via the internet from China, and when I received the phone I found WM6.1 loaded in the phone and I have a problem with it as my voice is breaking or not hearable when I do a phone call!!! I asked many people and they told that I have to upgrade the ROM but infact, I found that there is no Boot Loader in the phone and did not know how to do that, I contacted my supplier who sent me a .rar file and he told me to open it to be UPR file and load it on the TFT card by a TFT card reader, then to press three buttons together, the power, Middle and green buttons until I see bar showing upgrading, then to restart the phone!!! I did all that many times but nothing happend, the bar showed no progress at all!!!! anybody can help to instruct me to how to upgrade the ROM..................??????????? I will appreciate your help guys
I'm afaraid that's one of the negative sides of the fake touch cruise, my friend... I had such fake iolite, I had to sell it because of this issue, and to buy the original.
Hi there, to format the tft card to fat, not fat 16, not fat 32
and try it out.
I hope it works.
