You may use any ROM Updgrade, you may even want to cook your own ROM, but please do not think of performing a radio stack upgrade if your present radio is working well and giving you a trouble free service.

Hi guys,
I 'm in same situation but with higher versions, and can hardly wait to get a new 2003 ROM.
I can't just play with my XDA as I use it all the time for work and it's pretty stable so far. I just also can't tell that the ROM is 'totally' separate from the RUU in WM2003.
So the question is: is there any one here who has gone through a 2003 upgrade for Qtek 1010 to tell us his thoughts after the upgrade ?
I read a lot about the stability of 4.00.16 ENG, but all been written was for O2 R4.21 or T-Mobile R6.xx. Did any one in this region (Mid East) with R 3.2x went into this upgrade ? and what is the current status ?
Thanx all ....

Latest ...
I tried upgrading to 4.00.11 ENG from the kitchen ... no matter how many trys it just restarts and gives the same error message "Can't open USB/com port ..." ...
Do I miss anything ??

more update ...
Tried to cook the new ROM as .nb1 file and used Xdatools from the kitchen to flash my device .... same result :? :evil:
Is it possible that there is a ROM protection on my XDA ??? :shock:

Hi Biso007,
Look at the IDIOTS GUIDE at:
http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3171
and follow the instructions thoroughly one by one and you can't go wrong, it did work for me, I was in the same situation.

Samohile - Thanks. It is good advice to not mess with the radio if you can help it.
My only problem is that my device periodically shuts off. Then pressing the power button soft boots it. I cant tell for sure but it seems that this happens after an incoming or missed call. It seems that other friends using ROM 3.18.04 and Radio 3.25.01 (like our friend biso007 here) seem to have very stable systems.
I can try upgrading the ROM only and see what happens but the information at www.carrierdevices.com seems to imply that both ought to be upgraded at the same time. I notice it is an Australian site. Does that matter? Also, the version of the radio upgrade is a bit confusing, at least from its name. (Radio Upgrade File : RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG).exe] ). I wonder what this RSUv1.15 translates into since the name of the exe file for the ROM is nicely descriptive of the version (3.18.04).
Any advice in this would be very welcome..

Well i am using WM2003 4.00.11 and its working fine for me no problem i cooked in the kitchen you just need to read arround this great forum for a whgile on topics such as upgrades and ROM to know exactly what you are dealing with and then you will able to upgrade smoothly.
:wink:

Hi ARZLEB
I read lots and lots about upgrade lessons but none of them worked for me .... I got an advice to use SD card with bootloader as it's the only working way. Now I wonder why the EXE method was created!!
I see that u got the 4.00.11 working. Did u upgrade it using EXE or SD card. Any help would be so appreciated ... thnx

Well i used the EXE methode the file i cooked in the Kitchen but i didnt change the version i left as 3 at the bottom of the page it works fine i upgraded from 3.XX to 4.XX then i downgraded from 4.00.11 to 4.00.05 then upgraded again all using EXE format so far working great.
i will be honest with you i know about the SD methode very well but never tried it so u have to make more search on this issue.
If you need anything more plz message me anytime and i will be more then whilling to help you step by step...

Faisal sorry for very late reply.
I have flashed my Qtek (bought in Abu Dhabi) with several versions of roms cooked in kitchens (Jeff's and Stefans's), but I have finally settled with ATT release wm2003 Siemens SX56 upgrade. It comes with most of the bugs fixed (except multiple reset bug) and is quite stable. I almost never have to reset it. You can flash the ROM only by SD card method though. You can try it. It's always a good idea to flash using SD card method. USB method using ProgramA is not very safe. I guess the network in Pakistan is compatible with the one in the UAE, so you can safely use it, if you don't mess up with the Radio Stack. My Radio is 3.23.01 and I have no problems with that.

HELP

Guys, please forgive me for asking this, but where can i get the new flash to upgrade my current Qtek 1010 from PPC 2002 to wm 2003?
Please help....

This is the original rom for Qtek 1010 with Pocket PC 2002
Try this!
http://www.qtek.nu/files/qtek316.zip
This is the original rom for Qtek 1010 with Pocket PC 2002, but with a newer ROM version.
Otherwise : www.qtek.nu (Homesite of Qtek in Swedish)
Olli Power 8)

Original Qtek 1010 2002 ROM (3.18.04)
I have the English 3.18.04 ROM from Qtek if you don't find a solution let me know & I'll upload it for you.

confused about rom versions. Is 4.01.16 newer than 4.00.21 ?
also, t-mobile told me it was the 2003 upgrade with this rom RUUv2.07_CEv4.01.16
that is causing my sd card to get erased and that there was nothing I could do and that I couldnt even go back to 2002. Are they jacking with me or what?
I see this site : http://www.yorch.net/upgrades.htm has rom version
Pocket PC 2002 RUU 3.14.40
and Im wondering if this will put me back to 2002 without the sd problem.

You can roll back to the 2002 ROM. I've done it successfully with my SD.

Thanks, ill give it a shot.

mushtash,
did you manage to fix your soft reset problem with a software upgrade. i posted a while back about this and i was told it was a hardware issue. i tried several roms from the kitchen. the 309 siemens one *seems* to make it do less soft resets

XDA with WM2003SE --> BAD

i have upgraded my XDA with WM2003 to WM2003SE with the .EXE ROM i've got from LumpiStefan. And there are so many trouble on it. My device goes slow and often hang so I need to soft reset it many times. When I've got new message (SMS) , It doesn't appear in the screen if I turn off the screen. So , just the sound. The signal is poor. There is no wireless modem and photo contact anymore like in WM2003. What can I do with this ?? Can I go back to 4.01.12 ENG ROM (WM2003) ? How ?? Can I just run the .EXE file again ?? Which WM2003's ROM best ?? 4.01.12 ENG or 4.01.12 o2 EURO ??

I think the WM2003SE was and is still a beta version for the Wallaby devices.
I never said, that the ROM is working perfectly.
Signal strengness should be the same as in all other versions, cause the radio stack has not changed....
You should be able to flash any other ROM via EXE-File to your device. I would suggest to make a hard reset before flashing.
In my opinion the best WM2003 ROm in English is the 4.01.12....
