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.

Downgrading...
Hi Zairyaab...
I've been following this thread, as I too have an original iMATE (XDA II) and have been thinking about upgrading to WM2003SE. I'm still a bit reluctant, as I've read throughout the forums that there are still "bugs" regardless of which version you use.
Since you seem to be in the know, and are willing to help... I have a question. If I upgrade to Wm2003SE as you suggest above, and find I am not happy, is there a clean and easy way to DOWNGRADE back to the original iMATE ROM? I suppose I would just reinstall the 1.72.00WWE ROM from clubimate (but would that work from a WM2003SE ROM?).
Thanks in advance.
-Kevin.

hey mate......
u can surely come back to original rom.....but trust me wm2003se is very stable and you wont feel like coming back to ur original rom.....milllllions of thanks to dcs mamaich.....and may other gurus and geeeks who have made it possible for us to use this rom ..... and if you think wm2003se is not gonna suit you then you need to check this out......

Wich ROM to use?

Hi all
I have just succeeded in removing a simlock from a t-mobile MDA vario (QTEK 9100)
Now I want to get rid of the t-mobile screen etc etc
Wich of your ROM files can I use??? I am sooo confused. I saw some ROM's at Molski.biz but I'm not sure wich ROM to download to flash.
IPL 1.06
SPL 1.06
GSM 01.12.10
OS 1622
I hope you can bring some light to the darkness!!
Tnx and respect to all who develop these fantastic things!

.. OK i found out:
* my device is a G3 device...
* I need to CID unlock with lokiwiz02b...
But my biggest question remains.. wich of the molski.biz ROMS to use?
2 options:
* • RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE (G3 Device. IPL/SPL like: 2.xx)
OR
* • RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_NLD
Or am I completely wrong?

get the WWE one thats world wide english

Mmmm OK well .. many thnx for the amswer but the question is still open.
My device states:
IPL 1.06
SPL 1.06
And here it says:
RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE (G3 Device. IPL/SPL like: 2.xx)
So does it upgrade my IPL/SPL?
I just want to be sure the flash of the ROM will work...
THNX a LOT!

I recommend either Molski 2.26 or KTamas / bepe AKU3.2 RC1

So Sir,
If I understand you correct I made the good choice by selecting the:
RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE
As the ROM that I can use for my machine?
Thnx a lot!

Sounds great, my confidence is growing...
Hopefully someone can take my doubts away so I can flash!
One question remains. Is there NO problem regarding my IPL 1.06
SPL 1.06, and the RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE (G3 Device. IPL/SPL like: 2.xx), maybe someone can explain in short how this works? I searched and searched without a result untill now!
Gracias!

HAi
Can anyone confirm my thoughts?

CID Unlock your device with LokiWiz 0.2b (and also SIM if you would like that) and after your CID is unlocked just upgrade to one of my (G3) Roms (the NLD for Dutch language and WWE if you want English).
Good luck,
Molski

HI
So I can also use your...
RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_NLD ?
And your WWE?

Maanhond,
I just wanted to say that this week I used the RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE ROM to upgrade my Wizard which had IPL/SPL 1.x and it worked perfectly....

OK thnx
I will try today! LEt you know the results!
Wish me luck! ;-)

WOW worked pretty OK
But I can not sync with active sync now? What can be the issue?
THNX all in advance for the usefull help!

I think u should upgrade your activesync to the latest one 4.5 beta 2.

OK
I was just trying to update to the 4.2 version but that seems to hang all the time!

you can download new rom from t-mobile site and when u do u must be in bootlooder mode to upgrade that is (switch off key + light key + reset button) at the same time and then install the rom update.
when u installed then when u get to know how to install then u can upgrade to other roms first try this one so that u know how the upgrade goes.
Read this it is very useful:
