Hi,
After updating my qtek 9090 i ended up without a radio rom.
My deviceData was:
PH20B 0 B WWE E DANGA001 1.22.00 0 0 1.22.167 1.06.00 06.00
and now it is
PH20B 0 B WWE E 1.22.00 0 0 1.22.167
When i try to update it is gives a bad country code.
What do i have to place instead of "DANGA001" so my qtek accepts the upgrade or do i have to do something else?
I want to put in the KPN update but i dont know how.
i hope you can help me!
thanks
I just posted this on wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Radio_1.08_Upgrade
See if it works for you and give me feedback
Hi,
When i start BaUpgradeUt.exe it says it will upgrade to 1.08
After the QTEK starts in bootload i get the following message!
I dont understand what is the problem.
Try this, also not tested by me
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=98811#98811
Sorry, it does not work.
are there more options?
Well check out the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=18128
as bosjo has the same problem with device id,
I need to go so I can thelp any more
Did you try the trick (editing the .conf file) on the Radio upgrade or on the original ROM (PH20B 0 B WWE E 1.22.00 0 0 1.22.167)...?
If you try it on the OEM ROM, and you still get the same error, try to install a ROM version closest to what you want to have. Then add more stuff later, and upgrade Radio etc.
Hope that helps ya.
Since it seems that you have the exact same devicedata as I have on my Norwegian sold 9090, this should work for you.
Get on the FTP server, grab “BA_WWE_DT_12200_167_10602_Ship” from the “Shipped Complete Updates” folder (If you don’t already have this)
Download the “Radio_1.08.00_only.rar” from the “KPN_Rom_Qtek_9090_radio_1.08.00_only”
Now run the following .bat file on the Radio file.
<Begin Bat>
xda3nbftool -x radio_.nbf radio_.nba 0x20040523
xda3nbftool -sd PH20B -sl WWE -so DANGA001 radio_.nba
xda3nbftool -c Radio_.nba -u
xda3nbftool -x radio_.nba radio_.nbf 0x20040523
del *.nba
</End Bat>
Now extract all files from “BA_WWE_DT_12200_167_10602_Ship” with a .zip program and replace the radio_.nbf file with the one you just ran the .bat file on
Run the Complete upgrade and it should work.

Hi,

I loaded the the latest cab files for bt .. by version still shows 1.0.x.3500

- Do i need to upgrade my rom or are the cab files for bt enough..
thanks

I tried this and now all I have is a dimmed screen with say Serial on top

@mdaIIIuser
is it possible to set up a chatroom somewhere so we can help each other a bit quicker?
Greatings from a vastloper.
@vastloper
This is the only chat room that I know of.
chatroom
I mean something like irc.
Responces are quicker then.
Here you have to log in all the time and check if someone has answered.
But in a chatroom you can get quicker responce from the people who are online.
I made a xda-developers channel on msn.
We can try it out there sometime when i have finished it.
Chat here is like e-mailing to each other.

This is true but its lot better than nothing.
The idea is to use the search as well as wiki if you have an issue.
Most of the problems have benn covered somewere and yes I know its not easy to find but with out this site I would still have a GER MDAIII.
There are some topics that a lot of us do not answer as the poster has just not done ANY homework.
The idea of a chat room is cool, but its alas just another site that you have to go to. We all are doing this on our own time and are not a online all day. You can use the pm funtion to go ofline and set up some other way of comms.
It would help a lot if people would also contribute to wiki, well they don't and I should know.
I thought of it as an extra quick option for if someone has a problem and is trying to solve it.
The wiki is perfect as a reference guide and new discovery's and solutions should be posted there. I also thought that this forum program was able to have chatrooms but i am not sure about that though. Thought i had seen it before somewhere else.

It's too good to believe:

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

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 have a Qtek9090 with ROM 1.40, radio 1.13
When I try to format my ROM to 128M wit the DOC_Repart tool I got the message FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL_DRIVE failed, even I can see create and delete into the ExtendRom.
I have tried to install some ship ROM but it doesn't solve my issue.
A friend who get the same Qtek as me doesn't had any trouble when upgrading to WM5. I have sent my Qtek to be repaired a few month ago, could it be modified by Qtek ? Does somebody else get the same issue than me ?
upz
i got the same problem too !!!
stuck with the issue
and using 2005 with less mem
Hi,
got the same error. *duh*
The phone was also sent to qtek for reparation.
Got it working now.
I´ve made a hardreset to install the normal ext_rom.
After that i installed xda-developers_unlocker.cab from wm5_pack_v3 and then resco fileexplorer.
Cause of the german naming of programme (not programs) i couldn´t use the links in startmenu to execute the unlocker.
I used the execute-function in resco fileexplorer to execute the following commands:
\programme\extendedromunlocker\unlockextrom -unlock -xda3 and
\programme\extendedromunlocker\unlockextrom -unhide
Then: soft-reset.
After that i copied the Repart_doc.exe from wm5_pack_v3.
This time it worked without any errors.
this is veri interesting news, i will try again in a min
ehheheh
the using resco to run is one different thing i did not do
so sad, give me hope
hehehe
i just tried this n it did not work also

thats it!! Im trying to format the extrom of my T-Mobile MDAIII for days now, but this is the solution! u need the tool mentioned here, the extendedromunlocker in EXACTLY this version with the "-xda3" switch ! Any other version of the tool will not work. Dont ask me why, but ive tried them all and ONLY THIS works! a huge thanks triplehelix.
i will attach the .cab for anyone who wasted hours to solve this damn problem!
greets
//edit: sorry for pushing this really old thread, but anyway, i think this will help anyone wo was as desperate as me.
dunno if this helps but, back in my Hima days, the "FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL_DRIVE" error is due to the extended ROM not unlock & unhide.
you have to run the unlock & unhide procedure to avoid the FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL_DRIVE error.
really thanks, i have the same problem and with other unlockers can't work, Repart_doc.exe anytime give me this error, next time i format my pda want try this to format my extrom
Still an't working for my XdaIIs....
Can you attach the 'Repart_doc.exe' file...
I can't get my device formated....

its located here: ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/BA_WM5/Tools/Repart_DOC.exe
have you tried to unhide and then unlock with the "-xda3" switch ?
i use SOTI PocketController to remote control my device. it has a "command line" interface included. here you can type dos style commands. execute the unlocker, inclusive -unlock and -xda3 switch.
for example: \programme\extendedromunlocker\unlockextrom.exe -unlock -xda3
this is the most important line.
this time for me work very well, but have reflashed to italian W2K3 Swisscom 1.40, on this rom Program Files are named Programmi like in any other italian rom, just copied (with resco explorer) the entire folder from "programmi" to a new folder created by myself under device root named "program files" and without any change to original link in windows/start menu/extrom tools are not needed
for me work on first try with this method, and now have missing megabytes of valuable space
all files needed are picked from this thread (except for rom and resco explorer)
still not working
I've tried all the method above... but still not working... I've tried a lot of roms but still... any other sugestions?
Hi guys
I tried everything but I just can't get extended rom to be formated.
Maybe someone as a better idea to solve the problem
Greetings Kapiza
After I have tried a few weeks WM5 in different versions, I downgraded to WM 2003SE.
When I use the Extrom Tools I can see that there are a lot of CABs in that map. But they don't install. Noty even after a hardreset. It doesn't make any difference if I lock; unlock; hide of unhide the map. In my device information the field 'ExtROM version' is blanc.
The XDA is working perfect and it's also possible to install seperate CABs.
Who can give me a hint how I can solve this problem?
O2 XDA2S
1.40.00 WWE
03/10/05
1.12.00
1337.42
Some WM5 versions use extrom like WM2003 in separate partition, but some of them uses a folder in SD card for extrom
Use the "cabinstaller" programm in WM2003SE.
Search this keywords on yahoo and google. :wink:
hey i have just purchased a o2 XDA IIS and it has came with windows mobile 2003se,i tried to update this by downloading

BaUpgradeUt.exe
the software checks the device and says

kk attempt 2
so far i have downloaded Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU_3.5_v.1.4
which wen extracted has 5 folders
i moved the nbf file from Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU3.5_v.1.4 to PH20B1
andon my phone i ran GetDeviceData, this gave me the results
PH20B 0 BWWE E O2___001 1.31.00 0 0 1.31.139 1.06.00 06.00
using this data i then ran setoperator in cmd, and typed
SetOperator 02001 .
i am now at this stage and unsure how to carry on!
i am sorry if it has been discussed before, but i really dont want to brick my device as it was a bday n xmas pressie and dnt have the money to buy another

ady
(thankyou for your patience it is much appreciated)
Why are doing something you dont understand, there's no need to hurry.
You should read the wiki once again - and slowly and more carefully!
Why did you move the .nbf to PH20B1 folder?!
Do you know what your device is?
Why did you type "SetOperator 02001"? Where it was written?
i got the information to do that from the readme in the
\Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU_3.5_v.1.4\Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU3.5_v.1.4 folder
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
WM5 ROM Installation Instructions
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
1. Modify the operator in the ROM as needed
Open a command window and execute: SetOperator ????
- Replace ???? with your Operator Information
- i.e.: T-MOB101, or Vodafone, or O2, or ...
To get your Operator information, you will need to use GetDeviceData
Refer to the XDA-Developers Wiki for further information
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=GetDeviceData
2. Copy the NK.NBF to folder that match ur device (PH20B/PH20B)
this seems to be inline with what is said on
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_GettingStarted
sorry for bin a bit slow, im used to double clickin on a firmware update!lol
regards
ady
Wrong answer
1. I moved .nbf file to to PH20B1 folder even thought I have PH20B device as can be read in DeviceData.txt given by GetDeviceData. (I moved it there because there are setoperator.bat xda3nbftool.exe but its still wrong folder)
2. I typed 02001 even thought the proper string looks diferrent.
I didnt read the wiki carefully but I am afraid of breaking my device...
sorry i was not trying to sound ungratefull at all by my previous post
on wikipedia what section would it be best for me to read?
the upgrading to wm5 (as i am still on wm2003se), or the introduction threads?
thanks
ady
(is it as simple as copying the NK.NBF into the ph20b folder and double clicking the BaUpgradeUt.exe?)
To be honest you should read everything. Start with introduction threads then focus on FAQ and make sure you understand terms such as EXTROM, Storage, RADIO and so on.
Then you can read some older threads and try to get as much information as possible.
After 1-3hours of reading you will be able to flash device and solve "every" difficulties by your own. Also you have to know problems related to WM5

Click to collapse
The primary benefit is that power loss doesn't cause a hard-reset and loss of data. No need for backup software like you have on 2003.
There isn't a lot to the upgrade, however understanding what is going on is key if you don't want to risk damage. WRT the country ID stuff, that info is a bit outdated. There is a "no-id" upgrade exe that ignores it.
In short the steps are:
backup using activesync for contacts etc
make the extrom directory on your SD card
resize storage (if you want, you probably do)
do the upgade
thanks for the help fraser, last question why would i need to resize my memory (by that do you mean the sd card)
i have an empty 512mb, but would like to use it for normal storage after the flash has been successful.
would tht be a problem?
There is no real need to resize it, it's just convienient. I used to always install most apps to the phone and only larger ones like games go on the SD-card. That way i can change the SD-card (e.g. for music) and most of my apps are still available. However, I do have a 2gig card myself and I find myself rarely taking it out these days.
cheers, so i can skip stage 3
thanks again
i read through wikipedia and as i understand all i have to do is copy the folder "EXTROM" to \Storage Card\EXTROM
go into boot mode and then run from the pc "Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU_3.5_v.1.4\PH20B\MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe"
and then soft reset after flash
is that correct?
thanks again

As some of your have seen I have recently done a successful ROM reconstruction for Trinity (German GPS ROM).
Because this would not have been possible without mouseym's wonderful tutorial for Hermes, I decided to share the knowledge and my experience on the subject.
You can find my detailed tutorial in the Wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Trinity_HowtoReconstruct
If you have any questions about it, feel free to contact me. Or directly edit the Wiki, that's what it's there for.
Pretty good friend . But if I want to dump and reconstruct everything that my HTC p3600 has in it. RADIO,EXTROM,OS ... etc ?

Then you now know the first step
ExtRom can be unlocked and copied, easy.
Radio is irrelevant as there are plenty good versions out there. Why flash an old one. You could probably reconstruct ExtRom but like I said, its much easier to just copy its contents to SD.
Hello Zack
I dumped an Portuguese ROM weeks ago, but never could convert.
Tried your method, and when I do the rebuilt (buildimgfs) step, command prompt gives some error and doesnt create the BIN file
Can u give me a help?
Complete dump:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296182
And see this post for complete description:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1154907&postcount=8
This would be a much appreciated, because theres no ROM RUU available for portuguese anywhere. And some users after using the Dopod activated GPS rom want to get back to portuguese.
Btw, this dumped portugues doesnt have the GPS activated.
Is it possible to cook a ROM with GPS activated but with Portuguese language?
But this is for later, top priority for now is to build a RUU portuguese ROM from the dump I made, because there´s none available.
Thanks
Hi Drug_Store,
I have already converted your dump and sent it to mariocruz who successfully flashed it. I'll make a proper release today (OS only) so you guys can get your poruguese ROM back.
About your error:
You need to be a LOT more specific. "some error", what am I supposed to do with that? Also the step doesn't create the bin, it fills it. The bin is created in step 2. Before you run Step 4, make sure you have imgfs_raw_data.bin in workdir.
About putting GPS into non-GPS ROMs: I haven't put any research into this, I just know the Hermes guys tried this. You can check their forum and if you find details, let me know.
Like I said, expect the portuguese ROM later today.

About the error on Bin creation, is like when some app sudently closes on XP, he presents a little box with report error things.
I´ll post a printscreen later if u want.
Anyway, much appreciated for your kind help
The process will change for my proper ROMs. I'll edit the tutorial after I've done it.
Anyways, I'm pretty sure you did something wrong, maybe you didn't put one file into the correct directory.

any idea ?
EDIT : i said nothing !! this result is normal , i have not read after the wiki article, it's for that i believe the result was wrong
Thank you VERY VERY MUCH ZakMcRofl for all !!
i successfully done a complete os dump to my trinity , i can now test the others rom present here
now i'd like to do a complete release with IPL, SPL, RADIO/GSM and ExtROM
have you some explanation about that ? i have just to put the correct files in RomBaker ?
Did you dump it or reconstruct it?
A full release isn't current possible because you can't flash extrom (unless you use one from an official release).
What I suggest if you want to release something:
- release OS only if its without GPS (radio doesn't matter)
- release OS+Des' Hard-SPL+radio 1.38.00.11 if OS has GPS (SPL for security, radio because its the latest with GPS)

Sorry to bother you Zak, I've been reading long time the forum, and still unsure: May I reconstruct my Spanish ROM and change the Radio ROM and get GPS enabled?
There is not currently any RUU ES available, and I've read in the forum that either changing or upgrading ROM radio is NOT enough to get GPS enabled, so your proposal is only for users already sporting a GPS enabled ROM?
Still too confused about what is needed to get GPS in my own Trinity language.

i reconstruct the os (so only part02.raw) i dump just before with RomBaker
my os integrate the GPS
what's Des' Hard-SPL ?
can i dump and reconstruct my extrom ? if yes , can i modify it before reconstruct ?
EDIT : you said "you can't flash extrom (unless you use one from an official release)." , so my last question has no sense ?
@Looking Glass: reconstruction itself has nothing to do with GPS. In the german community we were lucky because two providers make (german) phones with GPS enabled. We dumped those roms.
For GPS you need two things:
1) GPS-enabled radio (no problem)
2) GPS-enabled OS (problem if no device exists)
So to get spanish GPS you have three options:
1) Wait until there's a spansih GPS-enabled trin and dump it
2) Try to put radio drivers into spanish ROM (see Hermes forum for research on that)
3) Try to replace the german language parts to spanish language parts. I'm not sure how WM5 handles localization, this may not easily be possible. mus_run suggested that.

Hard-SPL is Olipro's name for a bootloader (SPL) that allows flashing of unsigned Roms (and more). DES released one for Trinity:

About ExtROM: you can dump it but not reconstruct. The only option is to include an existing ExtRom.nb from any official ROM. We can't make our own.
Alternative is to make it readable (search for it) and copy out the cabs. You could then launch them manually later or supercid your device and write them back.
Depending on which ROM you flash you probably won't change your ExtROM anyways. To be sure you could extract the NBH you intend to flash, remove the ExtROM if any and flash. That way your original extrom stays.
Sad.....

Thanks for info.
So we are back again to the starting point.... NO ROM available, >> no GPS in your language.
I'm beginnng to drift to UMPC's: As soon as the form factor and the integration of phone capabilities converge, there will be no reason for that F____G Windows Mobile OS thing to exist.
If Apple does things right with Leopard OS putting a full version on its i-phone, the whole market may shift toward the idea: ONE single OS in all your devices. No more syncing, no more file conversions, no more data lost in the process... What a dream!

Why we are not able to reconstruct it, what is missing? I have applied reg tweaks and make it visible and copied the contents as you've said. But would really like to able to reconstruct an own ExtRom.

@ZakMcCracken
Can i use now the new prog (instead the other above) from olipro seen here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299659 ?
Thank you for your help
@turchino: Feel free to research the nb format for ExtROMs. You can read it, you can write it, but you can't flash it.
@extenue: You can use it, yes. But you should test it for yourself before you release to others.
