Couldnt upgrad QTEK 1010 using SD card

I tried to upgrad my qtek using the XDA_Tools directly with USB and it failed, what I can see in the screen is only grey lines.
Now, I'm trying the other wy using the SD card. I followed all the steps mentioned in the forum and I used the XDA_Tools to make a ROM image on the SD card.
When i go to the boot loader while the SD card inserted it doesnt prompt me that there is a new ROM image on the SD card.
I tried to use variouse versions of the ROMS's and it still gives the same result.
I have bootloader ver 5.15
SD card 64 MB
SD read/write USB
Can any one please help me to perform this task to have my qtek back.
Thank You

you used nbf or nb1 format ?
did you cook it like that or extracted the nbf from the ROM exe ?

Hello Biso,
I tried first cooked one from yorch nb1, then I tried NBF I already downloaded , both couldnt work.
I doubt that there is a problem in reading from SD card, as I now I try to perfrom back to SD card it tells me " CARD FAILED"
Thank you,

Hey Biso,
Just curious by what you meant 'extract the nbf file from ROM .EXE file'? Is this the proper way to do it?
I cooked various versions of nb1's and nbf's but they won't copy on the SD card. Whenever I try to copy an nb* file on the SD through a USB card writer using the XDA tools, I get a message reading that there is something wrong on the filesize and it cannot proceed with copying the file.
Hey Peter, did you get the nbf file on the SD successfully? Do you need something more than just XDA tools?
My bootloader is also 5.15.

Yes I could get the file on the SD, you dont need anything more than the SD tools, but my only problem is that when I insert the card and go to the bootloader nothing happens[/quote]

Ok Peter,
It seems that I'm running through the same problem myself. The copying process through the XDA tools seems to be going smoothly but after it is completed I can't see the file on the SD card. Have you checked that the file has been really copied on the SD? I'm working on it now. Let me know if you find something first.

Hello All,
Yes, I always cook the ROM as EXE and if it doesn't work I extract the nbf file from it.
The best way is to format the SD card using the XDA. Then use XDAtools to copy the nbf to the XD card through the USB cradle. When it's done, the SD card should NOT be readable. The XDA might ask you to format this card ... just press NO!. When you go to the bootloader it will be recognized.
I just flashed my XDA with A30.09 few minutes ago ... I used exactly those steps .... Good luck

Thank you Bisso.
I managed to pull it through myself in a slightly different way. I had to copy the nbf file in the program files/XDA tools/binary/english folder. I then run the XDA tools and indicated the source and destination folder manually the source being the nbf file in the above folder.
It worked!!!
For all those of you cooking your ROM from Lumpi Stefan's kitchen beware of the 4.01.00 ROM. It's a T-Mobile's ROM and if you're not happy with it, it won't let you change it through active sync. You'll have to use an SD card to download a new ROM on your Qtek.

Hello Biso,
I am not able to perform ur way of upgrading because my qtek doesnt boot it gives those grey black and white lines, so my only wy is to go through the boot loader, could the version of the rom be the reason that i doesnt want to boot in the boot loader?

Hey Peter,
I had the same problem and I figured out why. Make sure that the command lines on the source field of the OSimage tool window point to the right nbf file which you had extracted from the .EXE file. Click on the 'browse' button next to the 'source' field and pick it up manually. Then proceed with the copy and slide your SD in your Qtek.
Let me know of how you did...

Problems after Flashing - XDA1

Hi!
I flashed my O2 XDA // Wallaby 5.15
to WM2003SE.
The first Boot worked, after that, I wanted to switch the language to german, I had to reboot, and from there on, my problems began....
i read about the possibility to re-flash my os with an sd card.
everytime i plugin that card to my notebook, winxp says, i have to format that card.
after that, i tried to copy the nk.nb1 file to this card, with success...
and then, i plugged in that card back to my xda.... nothing happens...
if i press the "contactlist" button ( in bootloader ), i come to some backup modes, but not to read an new os-image from sd card.....
i'm getting crazy :/
can someone help me plz ???

You have to use xdatools to copy the Image to the sd-Card. It is written in a special format. Copying with the explorer is useless for flashing...
HTH
Stefan

i tried this some times....
but do i have to save "NK.nb1" to sd-card (( h:\nk.nb1 )) or in another format ?? for example sd-card image ( *.img ) or *.nbf .... etc
my last try for this evening....
must go to work in some minutes.. ;(
damn night-shift ^^ ( but good thing: nothing to do... just sit there and wait )

Download http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/tools/XDATools.zip unzip it and run osimagetool.
Select the nb1 or nbf file in source and select your card reader with inserted SD-Card as Destination. Press Copy and wait until process has finished.
Insert the card into your xda. If there comes a message to format the card press no or do directly a softreset wirh power button to enter bootloader. Than the image should be recognized ....
HTH
Stefan

doesn't work....
what have i done ? *omg*
if i want to write an image to my sd card, my winxp wants me to format it....
if i do this, the writing works fine, but my xda doesnt recognize the new nb1....
i get no connection to my pc with the cradle ( but there is something being found in windows while my xda is in bootloader mode.... )

hi.
i've read something about problems with winXP, if you want to write a new os to sd card... is that true?
btw. it's still not working....
my pc - sd - card - reader/writer cannot write the file in that way my xda could read it as an new os......
holy ****

i solved the problem i think
the xda os image tool doesnt work with notebook internal sd-card-reader/writer.... or winxp is the problem....
now with win2k3 server it works..... *omg* i'm so happy
thx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that is the problem heard a few times, that the internal card reader made some trouble.
Glad to hear, that your device is working again....

ROm Update form SD Card

is it possible to do that?
I brick my Heral when I trying to patch IPL, now it stack in boot mode.
I try al avaliable on xda ftp rom updates but always I got "Incorrect file" .
My Herald is from Rusia (cyrylica on keyboard)

it is indeed possible to do so. i am not sure of any IPL/SPL requirements, but here are the instructions.
1. take your sd card
2. take the .nbh file of the rom and rename it to "heraimg.nbh"
3. put it on your sd card
4. put it in your phone
5. go into bootloader. if already in bootloader, soft reset.
6. follow the onscreen instructions
thats how i flashed ttran's first '209 rom

it shows only checking sd content ant after that it is stacking on bootloader informations (IPL, SPL versions)

what kind of card is it? I do not believe this is possible with microSDHC cards as well as cards of a certain (relatively high) capacity.
Make sure your card is empty except for the file and that is formatted to FAT16 ( I think)

indeed your card must be formated by Fat 32 (use your Windows Explorer to format the card)
Besides this issue, I'm not sure if it is possible to do so if your devide got stuck changing its IPL. Which one did you try?
To make sure; use the official RUU rom from HTC.
Download it; open the exe file with WinRar to extract the nbh file included and use this file to flash your device.
Good luck

dont waste your time, those methods doesnt work. If u r goin to try to... "recover" your device with this method... you're just wasting ur time (you'll end up with a Invalid Certificate error)
theres no solution

thank U for your's all help but I couldn't flash it. I try all avaliable rom updates from xda ftp extracted to micro sd card formatted to fat 32 under windows explorer but without positive results, mean couldn;t start flash process (probably cid lock blocked it)

It could be beacuse the ROM that you are trying to flash requires Hard-SPL.

Make sure that your SD card is formatted in FAT32....
Also that your .nbh file is renamed and place it on the root of your SD card.
Maybe this will succeed

To use sd card method you need to have Hard SPL installed.
1. Format sd card FAT32. Copy .nbh file of the om you want on to it. Rename to hermimg.nbh
2 Insert into Hermes and go to bootloader.
3. If the ALL steps have been followed exactly then follow the prompts.
Cheers...

i know how to do that. in looking for the organal rom the .nbh to put on to my sd card.

If you have the original rom, and its an exe file, right click on it and select "extract here". It should give you all the files in the .exe file including the .nbh file.
If you haven't got the file and are loking for it, good luck.... Might be in the wiki but might not. You might be lucky and have someone here who has it but its not gonna be emailed to you. At 60 to 90 Mb its not gonna go through.
Cheers...

thanx ultramag69. you are great help i have come right.
