Hi!
I've got a pre-production version of the Qtek 9090.
The ROM version was 0.9x something and I had some troubles with it so I figured I would just update it... Shouldn't have done that
Anyway, I got hold of a strange update file, called "HA_RUU_12100_112_00125.exe" and ran it on my PC. Not that bright, one might think :?
The device would not fully boot up. I then took out the battery and waited a coupple of minutes. After that it booted up nicely. However, the device is not fully functional and when I look in the "Device Information" it says:
ROM version: 1.21.00 WWE
ROM date: 07/28/04
Radio version: DM FAIL
Protocol version: DM FAIL
PRL version: N/A
ExtROM version: 1.21.112 WWE
I've tried upgrading it using all the tools and instructions that I could find on this great forum but with no luck..
The DeviceData app brings back a strange txt-file that looks a bit like this:
PH20A1 A 1 WWE E [and some strange characters] 1.21.00 0 0 1.21.112 DM FAIL
I would be VERY grateful if someone could help me back to a fully functional device!!
Bump!
!!!Help!!!
so, why don't you just try using a non-strange file to upgrade your device then?
Help!
I am, you know! :lol:

maybe upgrading the radio stack using the SD method would solve your issue, however, you'll need an SD backup of a working Radio rom for this.
there is a 1.06.01_sd_img.rar (german i think)
and a NTRW_ImageQtec9090.rar (no idea which language)
on the ftp
THANK YOU!!!
I'll give a try right away!
What does the "NTRW"-file do?
Can I upgrade the radio stack without any 120-errors?
A quick question:
Do a use Winhex or some other tool to copy the data to the SD card?
To be more specific:
What tools do you use to copy the .nb1 file to the SD card?
Help!
xdatools is used to program sd cards with rom image.
I've tried the version of XDATools that I found on Jeff Summers page. It says "Invalid file size" and that the image should be a certain size. The Radiostack is not that size..
Anyone?!
Getting Image on XDA III / PDA2k from SD
Just use "ntrw.exe" - search forum for location. That runs in DOS and will copy the .nb1 image you can get from the ftp to an SD card in one command. Insert card/enter bootloader and it worked for me (but not the radio as it hung there - i also have a pre production model)
chris
I've got the 2.03 version of the Bootloader and it will not detect the card...
Do you know how I can upgrade it?
Strange - I had 2.03 too - but after I applied the 1.06....sd_img file from ftp it uploaded to 2.05 - so i was in the same position as you and got it working.
I am not 100% sure it was that file i tried first - it might have been
ntrw_imageQtec9090.rar also in the ftp archives.
Either way I do find some images dont work - so i also found and used psdwrite.exe and that seemed to work when writing images using ntrw.exe did not. I am sure there is something else wrong- but find that between these 2 I can create bootable Sd images that at least get the device up and running.
I am still struggling to upgrade the radio stack - as with the 0.9x version none of the "mainstream" upgrades work - they all fail complaining about the radio stack version.
Good luck - i think you must be close!
Thank you Hampers!
Progress! I got the Bootloader to accept the Qtec.nb1. It takes about 40seconds before it reacts and after that it says:
"
SD Download
=========
Selection=1
Not allow
update!
"
Quite strange, don't you think?!
Just make a copy of your 9090's ROM with romupdate.exe and ntrw and copy the firtst 416 bytes from that to the image file you are trying to flash by overwriting them. Then it will allow the update

I would like to but when I give the command "d2s", it runs a checksum test, starts to copy and finally fails with the message "Add record is error!" (Even I speak better English than that )
The SD card now contains a bit of information from my Qtek. When I try to re-flash it with this information it returns the same message as usual; "Sections=1 Not allow update!"

The new version of Bluetooth 1.6.0600 is now available at
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/OEM_WWE_160_600.sa.CAB
I have installed it but I haven't tried it yet. I had no problem installing the cab manually or directly from the Extended ROM.
Does any one knows which are the corrected bugs in this version and what's new? Why this new version number (from 1.0.3500 up to 1.6.0600)? It looks like a major release to me. I hope it DOES solves the problems we have with Bluetooth and our Blue Angels.
Enjoy it!
ArtZ
thanks for this really a nice update
I can't install it! :x
It says that a dll is in rom and connot be overwrited ...
(how do you install using extended rom??)
Thanks
I guess Bluetooth has to be be turned "OFF" when you install the update.
I had no problem to install it. I will play with this update tonight at home
ArtZ
I tried with it off, even put it in the startup dir but it says the same error ...
Yeah!
Occur the same thing with me!
Can anyone say the reason for this?
It will be because of the ROM installed on int?
My device configuration is:
Rom Version: 1.22.00 WWE
Rom Date: 10/22/04
Radio Version: 1.06.00
Protocol Version: 1337.38
ExtRom: 1.22.126 WWE
Thanks.
If it can help, here's my device info:
Rom Version: 1.22.00 WWE
Rom Date: 10/22/04
Radio Version: 1.06.02
Protocol Version: 1337.38
ExtRom: 1.22.557 WWE
Thanks!
Hi,
i have the same problem.
the dll is in use or in rom
Thanks.
I have installed the cab in two ways as follows:
First way: I copied in my SD Card the OEM_WWE.160.600.ca.CAB and I launched from there with the Bluetooth turned "OFF" and all other communication ports closes ( No active USB for ActiveSync and/or Wi-Fi) and I had no problem to install it.
Second way: I have unlocked the Extended ROM and put the CAB there deleting the previous BT patches from the Belgium Extended ROM ver.557 (OEM_124_008.ca.CAB, OEM_Patche_12100401.sa.CAB, then, I deleted the two lines to install these patches in the Config.txt file to replace them the new CAB) and I had also no problems to install.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
ArtZ
Hmm..
Well. I got the same problem..
The file "\Windows\ace_ddi.dll" is in use or is in ROM.
What to do?
I had more of a problem even out of the cradle so I:
Renamed the files in the \windows
(My Resco Explorer complained that it was unable to delete but it renamed them any way
ace_ddi.dll
ahioem.dll
AudioGW.dll
BtCeIf.dll
BtCeProfiles.dll
BtCeStack.dll
BTChooserLib.dll
BtPhoneIf.dll
btrez.dll
BTTrayCE.exe
FrontLight.dll
Keybddr.dll
Serial_BTUR.dll
Serial_Cmd.dll
Wavedev.dll
wbtapiCE.dll
Then I installed the Cab from \Storage\temp
Bluetooth Reports 1.6.0 Build 0600
I have not tested if it works
Has anyone tried this on an XDA II with 2003SE?
I'm tempted to install it if it works.
It Worked!! Had to renew a few more file but it is running now.
Thanks MDAIIIUser!
I have a Verizon XV6600 and tried this. For whatever reason it instantly makes the phone stop working. Also the Bluetooth starts but also instantly turns off with the following message: "The Bluetooth Radio failed to turn ON due to insufficent driver memory available. You must perform a normal reset before you can trun ON the Bluetooth Radio."
Before I install (and risk another Hard Reset and new System Setup) the key questions:
1) Does ist improve BT-headset voice quality or stability?
2) Does it include or work with the High Quality Audio Profile for the HP BT-Headphones?
3) What are the recognizable improvements over the 1.0.0.3500 stack?
Any answers available?[/list]
Before checking the forum again i made the same procedure described by MDAIII user .
I have tested with my HB60 headset and its working fine so far..
RE
Its NOT working on O2 XDA II with WM2003SE.
The whole thing hangs
:evil:
How do I make the dlls visible in order to rename them?
I would like to install this on an XDA II but I cannot see the dll files in the Windows directory.
How do I make them visible in file explorer so that I can rename them?
RE
Just go to File Explorer --> Windows and tap the screen and hold it there. A box will pop up and you'll be able to see 'View All Files'
Broadcom Bluetooth 1.6.0600 cab available here
Hi all
I did this update 3 times, the install went ok, but me BT signal
is not very good, it swings up and down..
Did this only happen for me ??
do we have a ROM in the ftp that i can flush to? thats working? just wondered if that could fix my storage folder missing problem.
a link to the directory would do it. thanks in advance!
we have lots, check wiki
i mean is with an SD Card..the following doesnt work:
O2 Asia xdaiisradio10200.zip
O2 Asia xdaiiscerom11262.zip
XDA 2s HK Eng 1.31
Would answer the question then of why they were never posted in wiki!
The radio 1.10.00 you can install as per wiki
Extneded roms you can get all applications and patches form those roms that have been cooked of wiki
The operator customization is in the kitchen on wiki
As for the 02 asian rom, well nobody has uploaded a ship.exe
that was quick.
thanks for the fast reply MDAIIIUser!
last question MDAIIIUser..do we have a solution for my Storage folder missing problem?(please!) this the problem why i wanna try to flash a ROM with an SD Card..
I dont like flashing from sd, to much work!
I still think the i-mate 162 rom of wiki is good, used it untill I had to reflash my device with all the passed Type I and Type II versions on wiki.
Then went with the 1.31 arabic and cooked my exteneded rom, added the 1.10 radio and the BT 3900.
Both of these roms work with the old tool.
ive almost tried all the ROM on the ftp..but still Storage Folder disappears after my first reset. ow yea on the my first boot i can see the storage folder and on the settings in memory i can also see the storage..its full..i guess thats one of the reason why im having this problem. any suggestions on why did this happend and afcorse a solution on how to fix this would be the nice.
thanks again MDAIIIUser!
Hmmm...first time I see this problem...
What is in the Storage Folder?
ow yea also the Extended_ROM doesnt load(ive tried all the unlock cabs doesnt work..and also flash manager errors! task manager error connection manager error all of the permanent save options..i guess cause windows cant save it or find the Storage Folder..and after first soft reset as ive said it disappears..
please anybody..there must be a solution on this?!
Looks like something is seriously messed up.
I suggest as a last resort to reinstall a complete new SHIP ROM that is closest to your original configuration...you can always upgrade later.
Look here to find the version you want and download it:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
Upload the ROM to your PDA in the cradle, not via SD card. Hard reset and tell us if that is better...?
i have this problem for a long time now..so thats why ive almost tried all of them..can you imagine how much this problem is really been a pain for me? DAMN!
ow yea in order for my IIs to work..i figure the reason why i always hang is because some folders are missing..like the extended_ROM and storage folder so i made a folder with the same FileName..after ive created the Folders it almost instantly stabled(doesnt lag when i press a button or somthin) and files already in them. like on the Storage folder the PerSaveBackup Folder is instantly created.
so i guess my problem is why is it when i hardreset some folders that are really important for windows to function are missing on my phone? how can this happen?
It's too good to believe:
ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/PDA2k_WWE_14000_176_11200.exe
I'm downloading now.

39.6MB (their server is really slow today)
From i-mate site:
The details of the new ROM image are:
For the Worldwide English Build:
ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Radio version: 1.12.00
Protocol version 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.40.176 WWE
I think they waited until the pros on this site figured everything out first...then they just piggy-backed on their findings. Kudos to the real pros on XDA-devel!!!

How to install this rom in Spanish Qtek 9090, i'm new and y don't now very well to change the language.
Thank you!
imate update
I just got the update from the I-mate site and am working it with the XDA tools but I'm getting a checksum errors on the radio, NK, and MS filles. Should I be using a different tool? My device is a MDA III T-mobile german flashed to english. Any Ideas???
Downloaded, installed and running. No problems....yet. I can't find a config file in the extrom in order to make some changes, but there's a setup.exe file now. Not sure what that's about.
No idea how to change the language...I'm not good enough to know that.
More later.
Tom
So far so good. A couple issues. 1) the phone off (or flight mode on) is no longer activated by the Call End button. Shame...I loved that feature. 2) I have a problem turning the phone on (flight mode off) after a soft reset. I think it may be caused by the Contacts Button addin. The only way I can turn on the phone is to go into the keypad and then turn it on. All other methods cause the system to lockup.
Tom
Temporary copy...
Until someone puts it up on xda-developers / cooks it,
a MUCH faster loading copy is at

Great!!!!!
I'm downloading it right now!!
i-mate finally released it after 1000's of unkept promises!
FINALLY!!! Here's to hoping it will be better than the Qtek version!
Again, I would like to ask why there is no config file??? I take it setup.exe has the config file built in? If any of the pros can give me some feedback as to this, I would appreciate it. I'd like to drop in several cab files incase I fubar something down the road.
Thanks,
Tom
P.S. almost 6 hours and only the "turning on the phone" problem.
yes... config is missing...
will try out some combinations .

Ture...true. Skype was fun the first couple times, but with VOIP at home, I really don't need it anymore. Still, kind of cool to show people...if you have someone that you can connect to.
Tom
Tried some combos, including, using the old config and setup files... nothing wrorks,
only thing is that any additional file found in ext rom is treated as a carrier customization file, and on selecting one file , that particular file will be installed..
also, i noticed that there is one config file in the windows directory.
Just take the Autorun.exe and config.txt from another rom, add in the cabs from the i-mate rom, and there you go.
Yeah, I will be removing Skype ASAP myself. I can understand how it could be useful, but for my purposes, it just takes up space.
The Setup.exe is way better then the config
Leave the setup the exe it is better then the config. with the config you have to site the and write a line for each cab file. the setup.exe automatically runs every cab file in the ext rom. whether you put it there or not. So when cookinh your extended rom no need to keep having to change the config.txt. The setup will run whatevers there.
You can find this new ROM at ftp upload folder hope MDAIIIUser can move to wiki , I will upload ext.ROM by tomorrow

Do I need to keep autorun.exe ? If yes, then which one old or new?
sunish, I can not imagine why it would not work. You must have made a mistake somewhere.
The WMP10 close problem still exists, which leads me to conclude that it is indeed a problem with the 1.40 CE Rom, and not something within the Extended rom muddling it up.
Has anyone seem any actual improvements with this rom over Qtek's? All of the same problems still to be in place. The extended rom has a few different (but unimportant) cabs, but that's about it.
MarcValme, I'm not so sure I agree. One of the good things about the config.txt file is that you can specify the order in which the cabs install, which does actually make a difference in a few circumstances. Food for thought.
TheLastOne,
Don't know / Can't figure out where is the problem.
No combination is working for me.
Maybe will try it again after a day or so.
Right now, after unhiding the Ext ROM, I'm installing all the programs needed by me manually.
One thing that I noticed is the increase in speed... The performance is somewhat better now...

I can't get data to work, I made a call and also made a data connection before starting Haret. I used all the files from the ION download thread.
The modem keeps giving 'failed'. I also disconnected (no connection but to reset the modem) and tried to connect afterwards but no luck.
Otherwise it seems to be speedier and the graphics look better (maybe the resolution...)

I have the same problem as above, i.e. Modem will not connect.
On launching the modem app (after setting up the APN), I get the message "PPP connection went down. Done". On pressing "Connect", I get the message "Starting pppd..." then after a couple of minutes "Connection attempt failed".
I always ensure I have a data connection open in WinMo before running Haret and have tried making a call before Haret as suggested by mburris. I swapped out the initrd.gz for one from a previous Okibi 1.5 build but, although modem connected, I couldn't sign in to Google, so I was no further forward.
Modem Connection Issues
For the three of you who are having connection issues:
Please make sure you are using the application called "Modem" instead of Toga.
Also if that still does not work, please delete your move your existing data.img file off the card, and try starting with the data.gz file. This will create a new data.img file. Having a fresh data file, designed for ION, will allow us to rule out any issues that may have been caused by a damaged data file.
Can someone help me with themes? They come in an update.zip file. I try to overwrite the original images manually and it won't get past the boot logo. The permissions are all the same but do they have to be signed?

I cant get a data.gz to unzip. I know it takes a long time but ive waited for almost 30 min before giving up and soft resetting. Ive been able to boot ION using a data.img from a 1.1 or 1.5 build but cant get data working. any suggestions on getting a data.img made for ION to work?
If your connection fails on first attempt after setup, give it a reboot then it works

As you can read in my post, I used modem instead of togga.
After using a clean data file (the one that came with the ION files) I didn't even have togga.
Android tried unzipping the data.gz but failed (not enough room error; which is incorrect, there is plenty of room)
I extracted the data.gz by hand on windows and renamed it to data.img and put it on the sd-card.
Did that before posting yesterday, so it doesn't work (for me).

@stringbean...Rebooting has helped to resolve data connection problems with 1.1 builds, but had no effect with the Ion build.
I don't know enough about the Kaiser hardware to know whether this is relevant, but it strikes me as more than a coincidence that those reporting data connection issues in this thread all have the KAIS120 variant of the handset.

I'm getting endless process crashing for powermanager at boot and then periodically. I think there are serious issues with the power management-- just look at the root console and see the never ending list of debug messages about it. Packagemanager crashes when trying to install/uninstall software like Retro Clock or OpenHome2, etc.
Seconded on the Advanced Task Manager. It 'works' by seeing processes and services but applications is empty. I'd always clean out apps on bootup and then every 1/2 hour or so. Can't now and Android's not too efficient at closing processes. I know that you can set up a limit on running apps but that doesn't seem to be the best practice.

Hi folks
I Just found a dusted "Blue Angel" Device in the cupboard, that I always wanted to use with Linux but had already given up some time ago.
Now, before selling it off at ebay, I wanted to give it another try and was delighted to see the "idiots guide" on this wiki page:
[xda-developers wiki ]BlueAngel_Linux
What happened so far:
I go to buy a SD-Card of 2GB (couldn't get a smaller one at my local store), put the image on it and give it a try.
It boots and brings up a familiar login prompt.
I login with root/rootme and get: "can't access tty; job control turned off" and a shell prompt.
The keyboard only works partially (only letters, no punctuation) so i can't even type "cd.." to navigate
Googling and looking at some (wiki-)pages here, at handhelds.org and linuxtogo.org didn't help me any further yet.
My Questions:
Did I do something wrong up to here?
What to do to make the keyboard working (did I mention it's a german Device?)
Can I launch some kind of GUI at this point (heck I don't even know if the Image contained GPE or OPIE ;-) ) or is the "can't access tty.." a problem i have to fix first?
Is there a more up to date image (to fix the keyboard-issue) I can use with the idiots guide or some evenly up to date documentation out there? I'm a regular Linux-User on the desktop and not afraid of the command-line?
Device Info:
Model No: PH20B
ROM Version: 1.22.01 GER
ExtROM-Version: 1.22.182 GER
Radio Version 1.06.00
I hope someone can help me on this before I go the ebay path

I have QTopiaII working on my BA, the instructions are a bit scattered and kinda confusing (and very, very outdated), but you should be able to run it without having to input any code into the HaRet prompt. It should do everything by itself. If I can, I will upload the contents of my SD later today so that you can try to d/l directly onto your card.
It could also be that you are running an older version of HaRet...

Yes indeed

That would be great for a test-run! Thanx in advance I think a gzipped (iso?) image file would do it, I'll transfer that to the SD using dd.

I must admit that I don't really unterstand the HaRET magic yet. Didn't find any documentation until now.
Can you point me to some usable Documentation for my project? At the moment I'm interested in:
- HaRET (how to configure and use it, up-to-date downloads)
- How to build a SD-Image by yourself (I stepped on something similar at handhelds.org but that seemed really outdated.)
- Any info readable by a non-developing but willing to learn human
Thanks again, Markus
qtopia
i have tried qtopia in my BA if u run the HaRET it will generate a img file in u r sd card it is about 200 mb why dont u try to copy img file to the sd card

I don't know much about HaReT myself, but I do know that you have to have the right parameters on the default.txt (or config file) otherwise, the thing will either crash or not boot (and this is where it can get tricky).
As far as the SD image, I was trying to get something to make an image of an SD not too long ago and I found a program called Winhex, which can make images of sd cards. However, you need to get the full version to be able to mount the image on a card. You mentioned something else in your post. Are you using a different program for SD images? I would love to know about this program if you have one.
I haven't forgotten about the things on the SD card, I will post them (SD image is not necessary though) but I just haven't had the time.
-go to: http://www.linuxtogo.org/~htcpxa/htcblueangel/Qtopia/
-download Qtopia-Linux-htcblueangel.exe and QtopiaPhone-image.rootfs.tar.bz2
-copy them to sd card, make sure you have at least 200-300 mb free
-start Qtopia-Linux-htcblueangel.exe,for the first time it will generate a 200 mb root file, so it could take a while
-next time you boot in qtopia it is much faster.
ps: you dont have to edit text files in this case.
ps2: also on irc-freenode there are developers who managed to install even ubuntu on there phones
