I finally ordered my qtek 9000 from MMB for 950 USD including shipping
The downpoint....i live in India, and will have to wait for my sister to get here from USA...which would take me another 20 days of waiting to do
I was wondering if someone here who has a qtek 9000 tell me if its anything different at all, in terms of the rom provided....the memory it consumes on both program and storage etc.
Also, any info on how the build quality is on the outside when compared to a jj or an exec?
thanks!
<waits patiently>

JasJar
I bought the Jasjar for Rs.48,000/=. Same as QTEk with better ROm support and better resale value in India.
As far as im aware, all of the Universals are the same cosmetically, apart from colour and brandings.

IMPRESSIVE! VERYYY IMPRESSIVE!
That's good news, especially that everything sold in Dubai is NOT sim locked. But is this info confirmed? Anybody already bought one (he must be among the first in the world) ?
read the posts below
in the posts below the news there are some with pictures of the boxed product.
and more important: manual with an optional battery pack with CF sleeve
this is more than outstanding specs
AED 3050 is the going cost ( NB no income tax and no Sales Tax only a 5% import duty is raised here in DUBAI) so higher than YOU GUYS will have to pay, the beast only comes with a charger (Connection plug is bigger than the old Qtek or SmartPhone,also it comes with a FIXED Euro Wall Plug...the old one here came with an exchangable wall Plug) , a chrging adapter (also changed !) a USB/Charging Cradle a CD with ActiveSync/Outlook 2002 (Outlook 2003 was launched Yesterday here in Dubai!), a spare stylus...and a couple of handbooks...
YOU must use the autoconfig on Powerup ! if you dont you will not get IA phot, Camera,Album and a host of other things...BUT be warned it will try to install ARABIC OS Extensions...so If you do get one you must start the Autoconfig, but CANCEL all the requests to install the Aribic apps. It seems only to do this once..so be warned..
Quick Review
Screen is better than a HP1945 but about the same as a HP 2xxx
Batt seems to be longer lasting than the old qtek
reception is improved also
OS and APPS seem to have some issues Stability is poor, I did run PC2003 4.05/4.16? for the last 3 months on my qtek and seemed much more stable
GPRS has improved now you can select 4R1 or 3R2 !
modem is there.
if some one can figure out how to get the beast into Boot loader I will make a ROM image on SATURDAY (going to the UK tonight) when i return
cheers
derek
:shock:

Great idea DEREK !
You have to contact to Developer or Jeff or York...
:roll:
One question NoBackUp if you dont mind:
how is the screen like in bright outdoor daylight. Can you see clearly to read say in a bright outdoor cafe or to use the camera under direct sunlight?
Hey
i just got 2 they are excellent so i think by that i confirm the availibilty of the XDA II under the i-Mate brand in Dubai is certain.
If anyone needs any info plz contact me anytime

Hi guys,
about to be eligable for my upgrade to an Orange M500 (hopefully free!!), and was just having a look around and saw on a website a Qtek s110 on an O2 contract for £29 (£30 month tariff). I am not to bothered about moving phone companies, only that I know it is a bit of a hassle.
is it MUCH better having the 128mb of onboard ram, compared to 64?
thanks all
nickb
If the price difference is negligible, go for the 110. 128mb is better than 64mb, of course (more space for games, dictionaries etc), so your consideration is what it'll cost you.
V
i think i might then......
Nickb
where abouts are you thinking of getting the s110 for the best price in uk?
well iv got an xda which i have killed the led light on it opppps
anyway im getting it replaced now i can either go for another xda exec or the imate version.
colour wise i cant decide!
would the jasjar be worth more come resale time??
would i even bother doing a rom update on the jasjar?
which one is best and y?
cheers guys
I think the Exec will be cheaper to buy (especially if you are upgrading or buy from 02.co.uk) and O2 I suspect will give you better after sales support. The Exec is a UK/Europe only product therefore may be worth more if sold outside the UK via ebay etc.
price aint an issue, its free from my work for hitting a target, so its sim free buti can order it in both xda form and imate, the imate does cost more for the company but that don't bother me lol
not too sure if I like the jasjars red keypad,
any more views guys
Hardware and performance wise, there is no difference.
O2 has better support as far as repair and replacement goes.
O2 Exec has a better color (black), especially the keyboard light (blue).
O2 is cheaper. But as you said, price is not a problem.
I decide to buy the Prophet.
I am in Canada so i can have it from expansys.ca
3 choices
Dopod 818 Pro GSM/GPRS Pocket PC (HK, English, Black) 924.95$
i-mate JAMin Pocket PC (EN, Unlocked) 889.95$
Qtek S200 Pocket PC (Worldwide English, Unlocked) 844.95$
I know it is just the marketing cie that change but i like to know
1. If there is more like
Support
Frequence of ROM update (now Dopod seems to release more often)
Can we install differente ROM update (Dopod on a s200 or on jamin)
2. Is other supplier in Canada that i could buy from?
Need to be unlocked and usable anywhere in the world.
3. What Accessories should i buy from the start?
Thanks for your help
First of all, you can install any ROM on any Prophet ( Dopod, Jamin, etc..)
So there is no difference to buy any of Prophet.
Second, to unlock the phone is very easy, you just need to use aWizard.
Third, you need screen protector for sure!
Last, does the web site offer manufactury warrenteey? If, no, there is no difference to buy there or on Ebay. I think you can find better price on ebay for sure. For me, I got my Dopod for around $750 CAD ( from mobile01.com with full warrenteey.) But it's all up to you, if you feel comfertable to buy there.
Anyway, I hope you can enjoy new phone soon.
Hi...
i would like to buy a HTC prophet derivate...
as far as i understood from reading the wikipage
there is no technical difference btw e.g.
dopod 818pro, qtek S200 and o2 neo...
However, I oberserved a big difference in price for the latter two in germany (around 80-100 €)... dopod is not available here...
So does anyone knows a reason for this ?
I would very much like to stick to the cheapest one (of course),
but maybe there are some minor differences...
I also read that a dopod with english rom boots faster than a Qtek version with german rom ??
However, one could change this just by loading a new ROM, right ??
thanks for clearing things up...

They are the same apart from the badge painted on them.
Well mostly anyway. They differ only in the software each provider adds to the basic specification. For example O2 will add O2 Plus.
You can indeed flash one prophet ROM with the ROM of the other prophet - but be careful otherwise you will end up with an expensive paper weight.
The price difference relies upon the software bundled and the warranty and tech support you get.
QTek costs less because there's almost lacking tech support, but at least you get twice as much of warranty (2 years vs 1 year) than on other brands.
Hi Rayan...
in fact, the o2 Version is cheaper than the QTek one...!
But thats a different story... Just after i ordered the o2 mobile on monday "night", i noticed that the price was higher on tuesday morning (similar to the Qtek) - maybe i asked too much questions
However, i ordered for the cheaper price; lets see if i will get it...
cu.... Marcel
P.S. in generell i have the feeling that technical support is always a bit disappointing... usually you find more help in these kinds of forums
Hint: O2-prices can vary a *lot* between online shop, O2-stores, independent phone stores and the MediaMarkt stores.
Be sure to check that!

Hi ...
yep, true... But i just got my o2 neo last Friday from an internet store and... the display is heavily damaged... one can use it but it has a huge (20x10 pixs) spot of dead pixls...
So.. having bought it in a slightly more expensive o2 store would be nice now as well... lets see...
cheers.. Marcel
