I need help to repair my Qtek

Hello
I just did the following :
download the files from www.carrierdevices.com.au for Qtek 101 update
"Qtek 1010 Upgrade
(22102003-190723)-RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG).exe
File Contents
• CE Upgrade File : RUU_CEv3.18.04wwe_Qtek_SHIP.exe
• Radio Upgrade File : RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG).exe
"
When the process began there was an error asking to press OK for restart.
After restarting device in the boot sequence ( when logo is diplayed) there are no informations about the ROM. Just Radion version is diplayed and that is the new version one (3.25)
Also on the display there is no start icon and I cannot use the display because it seems to be decalibrated completly.
Very Important : When I try to connect to Activesync after a while it telling me that the device is not a smartphone or a pocket PC and cannot be connected. So I cant use any program to try to upgrade again.
What to do ?
Please try to give examples and link to download files in order to fix my device.
Thanks in advance

Hi ...
If you still can get to the boot loader screen (power button + soft reset) and it displays "GSM OK", that means there is a good chance that the flash ROM is not damaged.
You can either put the ROM and RSU files on SD card through a card reader (.nbf files) or to get a valid SD backup for CE + Radio from any working XDA and use the boot loader screen to flash your device again.
Good luck ...
thanks, where I can get some files?
Thank you for your replay,
It seems to be ok cause i can upload a new CE in SD format to the device. ROM was build in the kithcenROM from yorch.net.
It still not working cause perhaps I need the file containing Radio and CE as well in SD format.
Do you know where I can get it ?
I dont think I can get another device to read the files on the SD.
Many thanks,
Silviu C.
I 'm not sure which stage you are stuck with now ... if you can put CE image on SD card and flash it using the boot loader, that means you can boot your XDA and flash the RSU through a normal EXE file from yorch.net .... if this is not the case then you most propably have the wrong file format on the SD card.
Give more details plz
present situation
I am at the edge of disperation.
Steps of what I did :
1. Back up Boot and CE to SD and save them to HDD.
2. Build a CE from Yorch.net in nb1 format and write it to SD with an adaptor.
3. Flash the device with that specific file ( was just CE , not including bootloader)
Now, my pocket is like that:
It cannot been powered from the power button
It start when plug in the charger
I cannot go in bootstrap mode ( when procedure for activating is made I just got a small red flash from the LED)
I have to mention that I choose from the yorch options :" lock butons except power when the device is turned off "
So, now I cannot use the SD for try another flash image.
I cannot use activesync because it cannot recognize the device. Somthing is wrong in the header of the authorising string or something like that.
When I plug the USB cable, activesync is starting but after 10 secs a pop up telling me that the device cannot be recognize, it is not a smartphone or pocket pc.
I am stack.
Thank you
Silviu C.
another question
I have another question:
Is there anywhere - in situation that the problem with boostrap will be solved somehow - full flash containing both radio and CE ?
Thank you,
Silviu C.
some little success
I have suceded by entering in bootrap mode !!
It telling me that I have GSM ERROR
What to do?
IS there any way I can get a full flash for Qtek with radio and OS as well?
Thanks,
Silviu C.
In the boot loader screen, try to press the calendar button ... it should give you the GSM menu. Select "Reset" or "Turn off" and do a soft reset
Plz do NOT try band switching or "Calib/debug"!
It sounds like a failed radio stack upgrade, you can try copying the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB file to your SD card then run it from there.
You can get the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB file by using WinZip to extract it from the RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG)[1].exe file.

Details instructions for SD card upgrade to Siemens A.30.09

Hope this helps, this is a simple process, these instructions appear long and difficult because i've added quite a bit of detail.
Prepare Everything
1 - Download and install XDATolls http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/XDAtools
2 - Connect your PocketPC and make sure that ActiveSync is running
3 - Delete all files on your SD Card (in your pocketPC)
Extract the ROM files & get ready for the upgrade
4 - Run the .exe file you download from Siemens, this will extract the files into C:\Program Files\SX56 upgrade utility. Don't proceed with the install, just exit it after the extract is completed.
5 - Confirm the existance of the file C:\Program Files\SX56 upgrade utility\english\NK.nbf
Using XDAtools (OS Image tool) transfer the ROM onto your SD card via your PocketPC and cradle (this is a new feature)
6 - Run the XDA OS Image tool (part of XDA Tools)
7 - As your source select the file C:\Program Files\SX56 upgrade utility\english\NK.nbf (directory is selected by clicking the square button with dots)
8 - As your destination select from the drop down box SD Card
9 - Click copy to transfer the file, if it fails check that ActiveSync is running & try again
Re-flash Image using Wallaby Bootloader method
** THIS WILL ERASE ALL DATA ON YOUR POCKETPC, you have been warned, make sure you've got a backup of everything you need.
10 - Plug your PocketPC into AC power & Make sure that your SD card is in the slot on your pocketpc
11 - Using the stylus top, hold down the left hand soft-reset, then press the power button.
12 - The bootloader should find the new ROM image on the SD card, press the action button to start the load (action button been the central click of the direction button)
13 - The load process will take about 5 minutes or so
14 - Once completed, use the stylus top and press the battery disable button, leave for 5 seconds then press it again to enable the unit.
Enjoy the new ROM, note that the first bit of any audio is played at a reduced volume, this doesn't help short ring tones nor fonix voicedial. Other than that the ROM seems quick and highly stable.
very good guide: question
do you know if this will touch the RSU?
no thats the whole point of copy'ng out the nbf file is that you dont mess with the rsu
which version is better?
thank you for your reply rudegar.
What version do you recommend for a SX56?
A.30 (cooked) , 4.01 (cooked) or the one released from siemens?
I heard that 2003 have some bugs, is it true? I have ppc 2002, is it worth the upgrading to 2003?
i dident have too many problems with my xda1 when i upgraded it to 4.01
org from tmobile
dident have a single SD card ereasing issue like some people report
but nor did i really think that the os was all that different
A.30 or 4.01?
What about A.30? what are the differences between both? which is better?

Who can give me their T-Mobile number so I can dl the upgrad

hi,
Sum1 here who a T-Mobile subscriber? I have a T-Mobile PocketPC that I need to unlock tho I'm not a T-Mobile subcriber. I need a T-Mobile mobile number to get the upgrade at http://www.t-mobile.com/products/handhelds/pocketpc/download_popup.asp
Or if someone already downloded the upgrade where can I download it without keying-in the mobile number? Thanks.
BTW, I have a question, if I download the upgrade, can I now use the XDAunlock.exe file here (is my ROM automatically updated)? My ROM version now is 3.14.40 ENG. I'm having trouble with the ROM updater here since im not linux literate.
Email me at [email protected]. Thanks a lot
I already downloaded the TMobile upgrade. Can somebody tell me if this upgrade will indeed upgrade my ROM to the correct ROM version with wirelss modem feature to I can use the XDAunlock.exe to unlock my xda? Thanks
The answer is NO, the latest TMO upgrade is 4.01.00 and it has no wmodem.exe application. If you need to unlock your device, go to www.xda-developers.com/XDAunlock/ and use the tool there.
If it doesn't work, try the kitchen at www.yorch.net and cook a new 3.17 based ROM and flash your XDA and unlock it, then you can upgrade to TMO 4.01.00 later.
BTW, the TMO upgrade affects the RSU part. So, unless you are a TMO user you better use the .nbf file only with either SD card or use the XDAtools to flash your device.
Good luck.
Hi Biso,
How can I "cook" a rom? http://kitchen.romanweb.com/kitchen/index.php when I go to that website, the only thing needed to be selected are the 3.17.03 ENG O2-Euro (6656 kB available) and XDA-developers AutoConfig data (113 kB) under it. and the unlocking option right? This wil be the first to use my pocket pc device, which option should I select under How would you like your ROM?
installer EXE
zipped NK.nb1 (SD-card flashing)
zipped NK.nbf (advanced users)
and should I do anything on the NBF header string?
Thanks man.
If I use the intaller EXE file, how will I "flash" it on my device? What are the differences between using the exe,nk.nb1 and nk.nbf? Thanks again.
I notice that above the page there is an indication, by default when I go to the page (without checking or unchecking anything) the top of the page states:
space in ROM: 6656 kB
used: 7729 kB
free: -1072 kB
*overload*
Should I limit my ROM on 6656 kB (meaning that I have to uncheck other options)? My deveice is an XDA 1. Thank you.
Hi ...
Yes, you have to uncheck some optional s/w till the guage line is "Green".
If you are not familiar with the SD method, just select the EXE type. It will generate a 15 MB exe file which you should download it to your PC. Connect your XDA to your PC throught the cradle and ActiveSync and run the exe file while the cradle is connected to the power supply and follow the instructions on the screen.
Good luck.
Thanks man for the quick reply.
Sorry I'm getting confused. Should I transfer the exe file to the device and run the exe file on the device?
Thanks again
The exe file runs from your desktop, your xda will need to be synced with your pc before running the exe.
Thanks so this is what I have to do:
First sync my device (cradle connected to the power supply) and after synching, run the exe file on my desktop computer (no need to transfer on my device or anything?). That's it?
Is this fail-proof? Will it not damage my device if ever there was an interruption or sumthing? How can I make sure that I can go fail-proof? Kinda worried coz I just got hold of my xda 1 (T-Mobile edition), I'm a palm user before. Thanks
BTW, my PocketPC Version is 3.0.12039 (Build 11178). ROM version 3.14.40 ENG. I don't know if my PocketPC is 2002 or 2003. I'll be using the yorch.net ROM (http://kitchen.romanweb.com/kitchen/index.php). All compatible?
ROM 3.14 is a PPC2002 one and all ROMs on Yorch.net is WM2003 except the 3.17 one.
Just to ensure it's a safe process, remove the SIM and SD card from the device and stop any running applications on your PC.
Good luck ...
Thans Biso. How bout a step by step guide? Pls pls pls? Id really appreciate it man.
Like
1. Sync the device (Power connected to the cradle)
2. Run the Rom Exe file
3. etc.
Just to be sure. BTW, is the exe file really just 150KB? Is that all I need to unlock my device?
Hi ...
There is nothing really needed more than what you just wrote:
1. Connect the XDA to the cradle and sync while the power is connected.
2. Run the EXE file and follow the instructions on the screen.
BTW, the EXE file should be at least 15 MB, seems your ROM was not "cooked" well .... try again
Ohh ok. I downloaded twice and all I got was 150kb. how will I know that the ROM i got is "cooked" well so I can be free of troubles. Can you just give me a link to the right/"well cooked" ROM? Thanks man.
One more thing, should I run the ROM EXE file while my device is synching or after the synch?
it's still 150 kb. Here's what it says when I view the log
./mkrom.sh: ../../kitchen.local/mkrom-inc.sh: No such file or directoryno files for configid 26220739Cannot fit files in given sectionsError splitting files
seems there is something wrong with the kitchen work space ... it happens sometimes ... no big issue.
You may try this kitchen as well http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/
P.S: run the EXE file after the device is synced
which one should I pick? Pocket PC 2002 ROM or Windows Mobile 2003 ROM. And what's the difference. Sorry for my ignorance. Thanks for the replies.
Biso,
Can I use an MMC card for flashing? I MIGHT be able to borrow an MMC card. Also, I dont have a card reader but I have a digital camera which I can use to transfer the ROM image from my desktop computer to the card. Would you think it would work? Thanks again man.
will the exe file below work for me?
http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
and
http://www.xs4all.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
This is my Device's Information
ROM version: 3.14.40ENG
ROM date: 11/26/02
Radio version: 6.18
Protocol version: 324e4
Pocket PC Version 3.0.12039 (Build 11178) (Don't know if this is 2002 or 2003 pocketpc)
Pls reply. thanks
Hi ...
1. As the figure tells, WM2003 is the latest than PPC2002.
2. I can recommend to use TMO 4.01.00 as I have it on my device for almost 3 months now with no problems so far (few things have to be tweaked tho), but I heard good news about AT&T 30.09 ROM as well.
3. I can't confirm that MMC can replace SD card. I saw some threads on this but no final results.
4. The answer is NO, the only way to move the NBF file to the SD card is either a card writer or by using XDAtools with the XDA cradle. I don't think the card will be recognized by the bootloader otherwise.
5. SER-V12 is a PPC2002 ROM and useful only if you need to unlock your device (which I believe it's already unlocked).
No I just want to unlock the device, that's it I don;t really want a ROM upgrade, just so happens that I need to have a ROM upgrade to unlock the device
SO I can use the SER-V12? Thanks a lot.

This is a huge problem. These HP hw6900 are nice phones, most of us still want to be able to use them as a phone, and a "PDA", some of us right now inlcuding myself can only use them as a PDA, or not at all, I will posting links later today, that should get any SABLE from the "Stuck on Bootloader Screen".
I am willing to donate to anyone who is serious about helping us fix this issue if it is possible, without replacing the mainboard of the hw6900, I will also be calling HP, and post the part number here and actual price for the hw6925 board.

Okay, I'm also using a hw6915 with original german ROM, and I'm interested to get an to help getting WM6 on it.
Where is the problem? So many HTC devices have been got to run WM6. I thought the 69xx has also been built from HTC. Is there such a big difference, or is the "Sable" just a rarely used device so that no one knowing how to do is just doing it?
I am using the hw6915 with english uk original rom.I would like also to see the wm6 on my device..But the problem is that the developers will not fix a version for this device,because they are not interesting for this.We would be lucky if somebody of them had a device like ours and he had the grazy to make a version for this,for his own use,but they have Htc all of them and our mobile is old for their fancy now...Too bad..
any progress on this?

I'd still love to see a Windows Mobile 6 or 6.1 upgrade. I'm not sure how I could help. Does anyone else know why no one has cooked one up? I'm guessing no one who can owns one of these things.
I have a 6955 and will be doing a backup soon. I will post it as soon as I have it. Lets get things rolling.
This link should help with raw ROM dumps through the bootloader.

Flashing the Radio / modem on ipaq 614 - first ideas

Hi,
Hp just released an update for the 614, only for englisch.
I have a german 614
I dont care about the OS part since I use a cooked 6.1.
But the update also contains a modem / radio update to version 0.88.
Currently out there i think there are 0.77 and 0.81 depending on language.
I believe the radio fw is language independent when it comes to functionality. But the hpruu says wrong language.
With the current universal hpruu tools you can only update the OS which is of no use.
I know you can update the radio by booting with the key combination:
lower left key on the side (record button) and the camera button.
Then turn on ... it shows : SD loader for modem
(similar on how you update the OS)
I also know that the radio update files are in the update.
They are called
amss.mbn
amsshd.mbn
maybe also partition.nbf
But I am not sure about this.
It might work with just copying the file to a non HC SD card and using the key combination.
There might be some file renaming involved.
I someone out there to try that and let us know how it worked ?!
Thanks

hi, imho theoreticaly you can update
1) .mbn files with qualcomm loader(SD Loader for modem) iam tryied it but no luck , .mbn files from hp 1.01.04 update have bad format not usefull for flashing from sd card :/
2) .nbf files from eboot loader(SD Loader), no luck bad format too :/
other way you can use QPST tools from Qualcomm or QC BS Firmware Analyzer(avaliable on xda forum)
small how-to connect ipaq614c for using with this tools
1) put ipaq to modem mode (push ML and power on)
2) connect ipaq to pc
3) install MotoQdrivers.zip (dont forget to adjust speed for COM ports)
i have included Qualcomm MSM6280 loader for QPST - NPRG6280.ZIP (ipaq 614 have this chip for radio)
sorry for this chaotic text i hope that is usefull
Saxon,
File partition.nbf is for IpaqFileStore update.
Maybe you should try with the following way:
- extract the whole package from HP side
- remove from the obtained directory the OS file (the larger one)
- put your device into SDloader state (voice recorder + mute + power on)
- connect your device into PC via USB
- launch RUU utility
In my opinion there is a big chance it will work.
Such way (using the SDloader) was working for one polish case where the upgrade of firmware failed due to PC crash. The only chance to flash again was to use SDloader + HP tool.
Good luck.

I used the qpst already and it worked that way that i could upgrade but phone didnt boot afterwards. so i am very careful with this tool now.
I am just wondering why your sd loader (the OS image) update didnt work. because i had no probs with it so far. also from the hp orig files.
did you try the qpst update ???
if yes did it work if yes can you send a step by step ?
thx a lot
hi , try my patched ROMUpdate.dll mayby it could help , i dont try QPST because i have succesfully update my 614c with hpruu utility --> http://rapidshare.com/files/139300161/ROMUpdate.dll.html
did you also try the cooked wm6.1 os on it already ? does it work with the new fw0.88 ?
thanks !
yes, when i update fw i reflashed my own 6.1 based on yevg001 v1.4 and works ok

29 Jul 2008 release on HP Official Site HP iPAQ 612c WM 6.0en OS 1.01.04 FW 0.88
HOW TO USE:
1. Download the FILE to a directory on your hard drive.
2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions to unpack the ROM update files to a directory. (NOTE: This directory should not contain any file or folder from any previous ROM upgrade)
3. Establish an ActiveSync connection between the iPAQ device and the host PC using a USB connection.
4. The ROM Update Utility (hpRUU.exe) starts automatically. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the ROM upgrade.
NOTE: Once the update is complete, the FILE downloaded in Step 1 can be deleted, if desired
Download Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=a65dc2a6e56aea29d2db6fb9a8902bda
Thats correct
But thats for english devices.
I have a german one where it doesnt work, and I am looking for a workaround.
Any suggestions ?
Get Hp Sp38905.exe http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsuppor...swLang=18&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=hh-59339-1
Use winrar to unpack it.
You'll find an Eboot.nbf. This Eboot.nbf is language and SKU id independent.
Replace the file header of all .nbf files from hp 1.01.04 update by the header of this Eboot.nbf file.
The header is just the first 3424 bytes of .nbf files.
You do not need to change .mbn files.
Then you can run Hpruu.exe to update. The file names shown during updates are wrong, but results are right.
@kkwy
And what if, like in my case, sp38905 is reporting the same error.
product id: FB136AA#ABB
Just try to find one .nbf file that you can flash.
Then replace header file with the header file of that .nbf file.
The header seems to be useless (solely for checking) so you can replace then at will.

EDIT> link updated
@ Z!L0G80
Yes, It works.
Thanx
Sucess!!
Now I have os 1.01.04, fw 0.88.
It takes a long time for radio firmware to flash, but, be patient.
Thanx again Z!L0G80
Thanx Z!L0G80's
It works for me to on the Dutch 614.
Strange thing is, that in de system config it stil says Dutch version of the mobile device (but it's UK now).
Very nice again.
ok great .... works ! thanks a lot !
would it also work with the 914 ? anybody tried ?
thx
My PDA already came with 1.01.04, fw 0.88 Rom, however I used the HP rom update utility to see if the rom would update without issues.
The rom update worked fine, however unfortunately something annoying is happening with this rom update. Now every time I try to do a clean boot, the first time the PDA turns on, after marking the screen, it would try to do some HP software update and right after the update I am forced to do a Reset, then I can use the PDA.
Previously I didn't have to do this, when I did a clean boot, the pda worked straight away after marking the screen, and I wouldn't need to reset it.
I think the reason for this maybe because this rom comes with extended rom, is there anyway of taking it back the way it was, or getting rid of the extra applications like the streaming player
This is the Rom I used
Type: BIOS
Version: 1.01.04 (22 Jul 2008)
Operating System(s): Microsoft Windows Mobile 6
File name: sp40097.exe (53 MB)
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsuppor...3048-1&prodTypeId=215348&prodSeriesId=3544358
Am I the only one experiencing this issue, is there another rom that doesn't do this?
Thanks
