By now almost everyone knows the HTC Universal will be called Qtek 9000.
What most people don't know is what will it look like.
Well, i was just sent two very real fotos of Qtek 9000.
It's not silver... and it's not like JASJAR...
It's over here
http://www.portalppc.com/GH_ShowArticle.asp?HID=180
so why the silver pictures?
so why do all the web sites have a silver phone? is this just because they had not seen it themselves?
Nice!
Any chance we'll see any more pics?
Yes, it's in Black, with some red led's on the keyboard background
Few days ago I wrote(in Portuguese) a couple of thoughts(i had a couple on my hands) on some new models from Qtek(from qtek.fi)
The link is here
It's a wonderful piece of technology belive me : :twisted:

the Qtek 9000 its black
the O2 XDA its black

Whats the difference between the I-mate jam and the Qtek s100. I was told they are identical, which iis better, and I heard that the Qtek s100 has no vibration is this true?
I-Mate gives 24H, 7days a week / 365 days a year, support by phone etc.
there is no diffrence between MDA/M500/I-mate/Qtek S100/VPA
(only the simlock from T-mobile, Vodafone and Orange

BE AWARE! Qtek support is NON EXISTANT!
In fact, Expansys offers you Qtek units instead of I-mate ones, because they are short of supplies from I-mate.
Is the lack of support a big deal? I mean won't most people go to a forum first anyway?
I was thinking of getting the qtek myself and removing the logo, as Qtek is a crappy name in all honesty.
Do they still provide prompt firmware upgrades? And you can still flash I-mate roms can you not?
Also in the UK at least the warranty offered on the Qtek is 2 years, as oppose to 1 on the I-mate. According to the sales pitch on some the sites at least.

Well, forums are OK, I'm here too, but, What happens if your device language is not in the forum? And, of course, your 2 year warranty will be NOTHING once you tweak your phone.

I did it too, once I found Qtek support does not exist.

If you are not an i-mate owner (valid IMEI), you can not download legally the new upgrades, so back to the warranty issue.

You are lucky, I bought my Qtek through Expansys one and a half year ago, and haven't found yet where to send it for servicing. And no, don't try internet, it is NOT there. Qtek do not provide service even for its own named phones, when sold in another country.
All said, even my carrier, Telefónica, DO NOT support the devices from HTC It re-brands as TSM. You can NOT get even a simple battery!

Hi!
No need to be so rude.
In fact it should be a misspelling, cause the SPV M500 is the same as Magician, and the SPV C500 is the Smartphone. It is just a letter, M or C, as you can see in http://www.msmobiles.com/news.php/3768.html
BTW, their performances are not so different, I have them both now...
:wink:
If you have a problem with the QTEK device, just contact expansys and they would arrange support for you as they were the place of purchase, if they were unable to help at least they would point you in the right direction.

Guys... somebody wants to sell me this black (dove) casing for my XDA Mini. He said that its original. I tried to search O2 sites and couldn't find any info on O2 releasing Black (Dove) version of XDA Mini (He said that it is released in Europe). Can anyone verify?
Re:Black Dove Housing
@seraph
The Housing isn`t original because the logo in the right front cover isn`t xda II Mini
Actually, if u zoom the pic there is XDA II MINI logo on the upper right part. However, can anyone post an official link containing the XDA Mini Black (Dove) Version? Well the color is very nice but I don't wanna waste money on a fake case.
@ seraph
I assure you: there is no XDA Mini Black (Dove) version released in Europe (I'm from Germany)
I only found this on an O2 site:
http://www.seeo2.com/product/XdaIIm...m;jsessionid=8826CAE4048DD3DBEA3A242CB6D5B98F
How much is it? Looks nice.

I've guessed it.. it's a fake.. but a good one though.. He asked for $80. I think it's too much. Thx guys for the info..
it may not a be a fake maybe is resprayed. :wink:
In Germany it´s called o2 XDAmini VelvetBlack Limited Edition...
And you can can order the device(only the device,no cover) on www.o2online.de
fake or real.. it looks good from the pic..

black velvet XDA mini
I actually have the exact same coloured XDA mini - I am sure it is not a fake. They sold as a special in Germany for a while. Only paid EUR70 for the whole thing with a new contract though ...

Good luck,

I have exactly the same one as well ......... O2 version from germany but purchased in china crazy eh and the front and back are metal as per normal silver magician......
i bought a black one on ebay - an it seems to be a fake.. well a quite good one, bout it doesnt fit exactly (much larger gap between housing and display, the net-indikation led didn`t fit well.. and so on). the printings differ from other pictures i found on the net, the printing quality insn?t really good, and the best thing: on the cover-plate over the antenna, i can see the original anthrazit color after it got a scrach..
would never buy something like this again - especially from ebay
O2 MINI HOUSINGS AT CNN
Here are all the available OEM housings for the MINI - I would be careful purchasing housings off Ebay, as most are knockoffs and have a poor fit. CNN is an aftermarket parts store out of Hong Kong. They are reliable and sell only the highest quality OEM parts. I have used them no less than a half a dozen times in the past two years.

I think it depends on your own interpretation of 'oem'. They are not 'original' as o2 do not sell them directly. I recently got into trouble with Orange UK's legal team for selling SPV fascias as 'original' - they are not 'original' because the holder of the copyright to the logos on the items says they are not, despite being identical made by the 'oem' factory.
oem - original equipment manufacturer units should be the same as original apart from licensing / distribution.
So your question should be - 'are they oem or copy units'?
The black o2 xda mini fascias I have had from Hong Kong have been OEM.

hello i was wondering if anyone knows where i could purchase a new housing for xda mini s as i just bought second hand one and it has few marks here and there, but awsome device love it. if anyones knows feel free to reply as the more places i find the better as i can compare prices, i have googled it etc but some of the sites i found are quite expensive even tho i may end up getting one as nice new cover would do this gr8 fone justice, or if anyone has a faulty xda mini s that they are selling please inform me as i may be interest thanks,
ps big shout out to all chefs for roms i have been flashing a few and there all excellent!

hard to find amongst all the other wizard stuff,
and the search criteria are difficult - Qtek 9100 / I-mate K-JAM / MDA Vario / O2 XDA Mini S / SPV M3000 / Cingular 8125 / T-Mobile MDA / Dopod 838 / VPA compact II and case cover housing etc...

Check out Ebay, especially the ones for Vodafone branded equivalent of Uni, I believe they have the lightest silver of the lot. Next one is HTC, then JasJar with O2 being black. I personally prefer black O2 cover with blue key lights to my dark silver JasJar with red keylights, so I changed the housing and the keys The complete housing sell for around $45 USD with hinge sold separately.
Vodafone V1640, even. Someone on here was selling his and posted pics, so you can see the color of the housing, if you find the thread, that is.
thnx a lot
yes it is ... ))
Hi dee ho folks, not long regged on the forum and i did search on the forum, google, ebay and the likes before i posted so here goes
Does anyone know where i can source an actual HTC-branded Housing for the Universal? I've been given an O2 XDA Exec FOC from uncle and as the screen's cracked i thought i'd be as well replacing the case as i'll be unlocking it as well
Prefer that to the i-mate JasJar housing - JasJar sounds too like a Star Wars character i prefer not to mention!
Anyone ideas? All i can find is the O2, T-Mobile, Vodafone & Orange housings

AFAIK there's no such thing as an HTC Universal, as HTC used to sell all their phones to other companies at that time. There was no real HTC brand yet. The closest to an HTC Universal would probably be an I-mate or Qtek one, as these companies used to to have the closest ties to HTC.
here you can find different versions http://www.shope2.com/Product.php?cpath=1_171_178 they do have also other parts. buttt it is not cheap.. dont know whether you wanted to invest that money for a old device.
