Hi all,
I was really happy to recieve my qtek s200 about a month ago.
I don't wan't to ***** and complain a whole lot about the s200, as it generally is a nice phone and overall good improvement over my previous qtek 2020 from some years ago. A few minor querks could be the low volume and placement of the power on/off button, but nothing I can't live with.
This post, however, is just to hear if anyone else feels, as I do, disappointed due to the fact that you are not able to change the roms, as easily, as you might have come to expect from HTC devices.
Come on! I buy a WM5 device for well over £350, and then I DO EXPECT that things will run smoothly, including rom upgrades. But, no! I for one am really dissappointed. I cannot flash any roms, that are available, outside those "soon to be comming" from the place I purchased. I am still waitning.
I-mate seems, however, to support their customers well, but qtek will not even recognise my IMIE number from the reseller where I bought my phone.
So now I have the option to either wait or pay extra to get a danish rom on my qtek s200! What will they think of next?! I can only say that I am beginning to loose faith in qtek and HTC for that matter.
Please prove me wrong :roll:
Kind regards,
Gnuig

You bought a Qtek! What did you expect? Didn't you do any research before purchase? We *always* have had to jump through vendor id hoops with HTC devices to load different vendor roms, just because someone writes a tool to get around this easily doesn't mean it actually is easy! and Qtek are *well known* for their lack of support - it's a reason often given why their devices are cheaper to purchase than i-mate. Moan about Qtek, not about HTC - they didn't make you buy a Qtek product.....and in future buy an i-mate, or JAFWM to load roms more easily or search for the leaked roms when they become available from Qtek.

Hi Richard,
Thanks for you post. I do see your point... I guess a more correct title for this topic could have been:
IMHO HTC messed up the qtek s200 -> IMHO QTEK messed up the prophet!
I do however, compared to my previously good experience with the qtek 2020, feel that HTC still made the device... so as to allow QTEK to lock it "more" from the other brand names i.e. i-mate, jafwm etc.
I do agree, I should have read more on the Qtek s200 before buying and xda-dev does a good job informing and all, yet it is difficult for anyone (especially a nob) to find just the right post... telling you NOT TO BUY the QTEK S200, if you hope for good support on a prophet.
Living in Denmark, I actually believe that Dangaard Data (qtek distributer) does give good support, just not on qtek's purchased abroad. I have learned from my mistakes, and still would say, IF EVER, I was to buy another WM5 device, I will only buy from a shop in Denmark... we also get 2 years service, which don't think you get abroad as a standard.
Anyway, you could be right about qtek on the average. I just whish I had purchased mine 1) either in Denmark og 2) NOT AT ALL.
Back to my Nokia 9500 for now.
Cheers,
Gnuig
I don't get it. Why do you want to change ROMs all the time? -- And why would that be such a strong determining factor in you choosing not to use the device, especially since, as you say, it's actually an improvement over your 2020?
Personally, I'm waiting patiently for the next official S200 ROM update from Qtek. I love my S200!

RuuUpdateRom.exe hacked for Vender ID ignore
Hi to Ricardo and all.
It works !!
I could now make the shift from Qtek s200 English to Danish.
This is what I have been looking for in 3 weeks, because the Qtek-service in Denmark is not working until (last time I looked at www.qtek.dk ) the 18th of april.
Thanks very much !
best regards from
Klaus Gottlieb, Århus DK

Good points, but then again as HTC own Qtek its also fair to have a go at HTC.

Can you post the procedure you used to achieve this?
There are quite a few of us here that are in the same position and it would be very helpful and we would be deeply indebted to you

Hi,
Is there anyway to upgrade the RAM in wing?
Thanks
None, unfortunately. :-/
Getting rid of the stock TMO Rom is the second best thing. Go to the Herald WM6 forum and pick one of the roms - I personally use open touch 2.x

True. With the stock tmobile ROM I had about 11mb of free RAM. With my ROM, I have about 28mb.

This is a Herald Forum. Please ask this question in the HTC's Magician forum. (There isn't, though, like oddball1 said.)
But they do have some cool hacks for it... please read CAREFULLY and understand the hacks BEFORE you apply them.
Im a little confused... is the AT&T Tilt also the exact same thing as the Herald? If no, which of the main categories under xda-developers is the Tilt verbatim?
no
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Herald <- herald
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser <- tilt
Thank you so much for the clarification. I truly appreciate that.
no,it's T-Mobile Wing

The HTC Herald is the same thing as the T-Mobile Wing not the Tilt the Tilt is the HTC TYTN II.
Well i have (imo)
upgraded from a universal to a hermes and i must say -

i am currently installing .net framework on my pc so i can run hardspl and then flash crc's wm6.1 rom which seems to be the most stable.
i had it in my mind to get a hermes for a while so i looked into the details
Well yeah my hermes is branded xda trion and costed me £175 but so far its worth every penny

Pretty much so. I have had one since September and advice on this forum for the HTC TD2 generally seems to apply to the T-Mobile Compact V.
