If you crashed you XDA ( mine is Qtek 1010 ) after update

Hi all, Im just new here and thanks alot for u all..
my Qtek 1010 back again to the life :lol:
Once I decided to upgrade my Qtek 1010 (StrongARM) to the new CE ROM which is the 3.16 the newest one while in writing this and you can get it from www.qtek.dk & to upgrade to the newest radio ROM 4.19 and you can get it from the same web site. I CRUSHED MY Qtek 1010 and nothing can do. Please read my full story to find the correct way to upgrade your Qtek 1010 or any other XDA as an experience of mine.
The fault that I made which crushed my pocket pc is that I upgraded the GSM ROM with out making a hard reset to my device before the upgrading process so that a file confliction happened with other installed programs with the new GSM ROM file while it being uploaded to the GSM ROM. Windows CE OS trying to show up a massage to you but can not done because of the dependent of the OS on the GSM ROM. On other words windows CE phone edition depend on the GSM ROM for operating normally other ways it not going to be steady the OS will stop and trying to load the GSM ROM if fail it will stop at this step. System not crushed yet it stopped to this point and waiting for GSM ROM programming (Program B) to be fixed. It can be fixed by various ways the easiest one is the way I have done.
ATTENTION: BEFORE UPGRADING ALLWAYS BE SURE YOUR DEVICE BATTERY IF FULLY RECHARGED.
Problem :
Qtek 1010 corrupted after Radio Stack Upgrade. Windows CE operate but not normally, just the today screen shows up when pressing the volume button.
Aim :
To fixed the device.
Theory :
When you decide to upgrade your device its highly recommended to perform a full reset (hard reset) to your device after backup your data from the device. Then do the upgrade BUT be so patient, upgrading process take a long time. The following steps show the upgrading process :-
1- Backup your data.
2- Perform a full reset (hard reset).
3- Connect your device with activesync.
4- Run the upgrade setup file.
5- Wait… wait… wait..
6- You may damage your device if you didn’t wait.
7- The device will restart automatically don’t be hurry we didn’t finish yet. Wait..
8- A progress bar shown.. wait till it become 100%. And wait again..
9- The device performs an automatic soft reset.
10- A message dialog appears telling you ROM update is completed successfully.
11- Done.
When something goes wrong don’t panic take it easy and check this :-
1- Perform full reset.
2- Wait to system load.. if it take a very long time perform a soft reset and wait.
3- Press the volume button the system today screen should been shown.
4- Bering a memory card (SD or MMC) are the same for this.
5- Make a directory named by 2577, and copy and autorun.exe into the 2577 directory this program runs automatically when you insert the memory card into its slot. Place a copy of the CAB file of the updating source onto the root directory of the memory card.
\ RSUpgrade.sa.CAB
|----- 2577\
|____ Autorun.exe
6- place the card into the slot. Auto execution going up follow the instructions
7- be patient it will talk a long time.
8- The click tab to start shown, click and wait till the calibration screen shown.
9- Enjoy your device.
The upgrading of the win CE OS is easy and again be patient .
Best regards.

WM6 upgrade

ARE THESE THE CORRECT STEPS TO UPGRADE WM5 TO WM6?
i don't want to mess up my ppc.......
"""How to upgrade from WM5 TO WM6""""
To upgrade your prophet to WM6 I recommend that you first of all downgrade to the NVID version of WM5 AKU2.2 and get the latest Active Sync:
1. Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693...24721_NVID.exe
2. After it has been downloaded get the latest Active Sync from Microsoft.com
3. Install active sync, you might need to reboot
4. When your computer has rebooted, run the file from step No 1 . Follow the steps, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait.
5. When you have done this, your pda will reboot. After it comes with the welcome to windows mobile screen,"Tap Here To Begin",JUST LEAVE IT. In fact don't touch your device before the next steps are finished.
6. Now download one of the WM6 versions( http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...85&postcount=1 )
7. Now find a file named Upgrade.bat,and run it.(you don't have to run Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp,as you have already downgraded to AKU2.2)
8. Wait until the upgrade finishes(usually takes 12-15minutes)..WAIT WAIT WAIT
9. A message will be displayed in the dos box,and it will say that the upgrade is finished etc....etc...,now you HAVE to HARD RESET,to finish the upgrade and enjoy you new WM6!

What device do you have?
Look in the forums for that device to find your answer...

Save me.......I mean my T-Mobile Wing

Hi, guys. I am really new here and I really need some help. Recently I purchased a t-mobile wing from eBay for $260 shipped. And the phone was "DOA" . I guess I suppose to return this phone back to the seller, but I saw this as a FIX IT YOURSELF PROJECT p. I know I will have fun "trying" to un-brick the phone. Since It is without any scratch, I knew even this brick phone can be sell for about $150. I don't mind put the $100 on the line for this little project of mine . I had read many threads (over 200) but none did the job. To me, this phone is a bit strange. Maybe it really BRICK. Anyway, let me describe the status here. I cannot turn on the phone by the power switch. I can get into boot loader and hard reset. If I do a hard reset, and press CALL, the phone will say something about formatting then reboot in about 5 seconds and the T-mobile screen will come out and the phone turn off and that is it. If I press any other keys, the T-mobile screen will come out and the phone turns off. If I got into boot loader, I can turn off the phone with the power switch. So, I know the power switch is working. While in boot loader, I can flash the phone with the 2 stock rom from t-mobile: 4.10.531.3 and 4.26.531.1. But any other rom I downloaded from this website will not work. I can flash these 2 stock roms vise versa. The boot loader will display: IPL 4.10.0002 / SPL 4.10.0000 and IPL 4.26.0002 / 4.26.0000. But either rom will not let me turn on the phone with the power switch. While I am using the flash tool (RUU) with the stock rom the "original image version" will display BLANK. However the whole flash process seems to be smooth. If I use the other roms, the process will stop at 3 percent and display error 270 update error, image file corrupted. I cannot use anything like herald-uspl.exe since active sync will not connect to my phone. It is always grey. However, in system hardware list, there is the POCKET PC USB SYNC. But with the stock ROM, I can flash even active sync is grey. I am just so lost here. Have I over look something basic? I am not sure . Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

go into bootloader and use uspl. try that. tell me if it works

Are these the steps? I cannot update the phone as it will not show connect to the computer by active sync (grey icon). but on hardware manager, it show up
Step 1. Download Herald-USPL-Beta3.
Step 2. UnZIP the file into a folder on your Desktop. Let's call it "MyFirstROM" for simplicity's sake. Notice that there is a folder called RUU within this folder now. Keep that in mind.
Step 3. Download your NBH file and unZIP or unRAR it into that RUU folder. Make sure that that NBH file ends up in the RUU folder, not within a folder inside the RUU folder.
Step 4. Place your phone into flightmode.
Step 5. Go back to the MyFirstROM folder and then run USPL.exe
Step 6. Follow the directions on the screen. EXACTLY.
Your screen on your cell phone will go white around the 75% part of the "second step" now.
ActiveSync will LOOSE its connection.
Step 7. One step 3 on that black window, the RUU flasher will pop up. Just follow the steps.

yep thats it

I cannot use uspl because the active sync issue. It shows grey and the program will stay at 1/3......

Here comes my other question. Why T-mobile official ROM do not require active sync (stated of the readme file of the package) while cook ROM does? So is there any cook rom that does not require active sync? Thanks again

no. put your into bootloader mode and connect it. Your pc should recognize it. Then use uspl.

The PC recognize it. it is in device manager. But ative sync did not find any device. However, I still launched uspl, but it will just stay at "step 1/3...." and that is it. So you think this is brick? Thanks for your time.

WHERE IS THE NBH FILE?????

Launch USPL and run it like that. It should work.
I know HardSPL supports flashing from bootloader. The RUU does the same thing. If you run it via activesync, it soft resets into bootloader.
And the nbh file is found in rom downloads

Tried HardSPL and USPL, both will not work, except stock ROM. But it will not power up with the power buttom.

'Start' batch file does nothing.
Tried opening it directly from a command prompt, but still nothing, except it opens another dos box.
Thoughts ?

The 'start' batch file fails because the first command is 'cd RUU'. but there is not a folder called RUU.
Then it tries to rename two files which also do not exist. Hence it never actually arrives at the exe file to unlock & install the ROM.
Can this work if you simply run the exe file without renaming & changing folders ?

Hi, and thanks for that script...
The .bat works well for me but while updating the rom, I've got an 270 error... 'The images files is corrupted please check your update utility'
does any one had the same issue on his phone? Do you think I just need to download it again? (concidering that the zip file uncompressed normaly, I assume it works well...)
Thanks for your answers...

upgrading MDA Touch
please i need your Help.
I have download the" touch essential V3.5 Manilla" on my PC. But i don´t know how to send it to my MDA.
Activsyc is working.
Where kann i fine the cert_CAB?
I have also unpacked the V3.5 manilla, but there is no way to run it in the MDA how should i do this.
many thanks

My 2 cents...
If I were you I wouldn't rely on a torrent posted by a junior member (age 12) and rather download the ROM posted by Football on Rapidshare => See his post HERE <=.
I've been using it from day 1 without any problem...

gruikdadude...
gruikdadude... I understand were you are coming from but I have been very carefull on what i look for and actually this torrent file was uploaded by someone on xda developers so i am saying the update worked fine for me so why shouldnt it for you so before you start criticising a me for posting something that is just to assure htc touch owners that there is a reliable WM6.1 upgrade is there anything wrong with this......... NO!!! so before you criticise think twice !!!bell end!!!

Can you plz. give us link for zip file instead of the ttornet one
thanks in advance

can you tell me the diffrences between this rom and the original 6,1 rom? i see no manilla2d, but more differences?

hi i tried the whole procedure , but i get the ERROR[270]: Image file is currupted, can anyone help regarding this error, how to get the uncurrupted version?

Since this rom is giving a lot of people problems, why not just use one of the verified good roms from the Elf Upgrading subforum?
