I have read claims that "Start menu" pops up faster, applications opens faster, and in general, the device becomes a lot faster just after the upgrade.
I have checked those claims, with 2 similar Qteks. one was upgraded to the last ROM and is after HR, and on the other - the same factory ROM with HR.
The resaults are in this video (http://www.pocket.co.il/~video/9100-rom/qtek-rom.wmv)
the device on the right is not upgraded, and the device on the left the ROM is 1.6.7.1
both are after HR to check the responses of the start menu and several applications.
If there is indeed an upgrade with this ROM, it isn't affect what we have tested.
Also, please notice that the upgraded ROM reduces the "program" memory to 44MB.
The thing that most poeple forget, is that a device, after HR is faster than a device that was used for some time, so of course you will notice a difference after upgrading, because the device demands a HR.

Sphere is right.
no differnce here...
but! the [E]dge and [G]prs ICON Switch works on this ROM....
Doesnt worth the update...

thanks Sphere..

The (little) problem I habve is that the actual program memory in use is changed with the new rom.
I was using the latest KJam rom before and I had around 30 - 31mb free program memory (to run applications) and its changed with the new rom.
I now have around 24mb...
(44mb total memory and 20mb in use atm)

I have the new ROM (1.6.7.1) installed on my Qtek 9100 and my GPRS icon never changes. Is there some registry hack to enable the Edge icon?

Hello... Where did you get the 1.6.7.1 WWE update? I have not seen this question answered yet as where to get the OEM ROM Updates from Qtek. I have only seen the UK T-Mobile one.
Also does it include MSFP? (Microsoft Messaging and Security Update) (for "push" e-mail?)
Thanks

This is not an official ROM from QTEK.
Qtek are due to release a new official ROM till the end of this month, and it will include MSFP.
..
this rom IS a test-only - not for sale ROM.
It works gr8 btw.
The only non-test aku2 rom available is from imate
The Dutch division of Qtek just announced that an AKU2 ROM update for both the English and the Dutch variant of the Qtek9100 is due 'soon'.

if true, sounds a good news
does the test rom have that ****ty white battery meter at the top as well? (the one that tells you the battery is full, half full, or empty)
yes the test rom does have the three bar meter, but it also has A2DP, which the official release does not.
it's possible downgrading from this rom to an older one? 'cos i've read that some people had problems with that
now i'm running 1.3.7.5 spanish, and i want to try the newest one but first i want to ensure that it's gonna be possible getting back
bleh. i downgraded from the official imate rom because of that gay battery meter. i wish there was a way to remove it.

Hi Ximenin,
I've tried downgrading without success.I asked several times for help but no reply.I advise you to wait for the official release rom from Qtek or you will mess up your device like i did to mine.
...
juse use awizard 1.3 and you will be able to downgrade/ upgrade to any rom you want
:shock: :shock: :shock: blackrider you've scared me.... but have you tried version 1.3 like pilpel says?

Ximenin,honestly it is not my intention to scare you,but listen since I upgraded to this new rom my device reboots constantly,freezes and so on.
Maybe pilpel can help describe exactly how to downgrade using version 1.3 cause I've tried it without any luck.I just want to spare you the pain and anger I'm going through now.
Hi folks
could any of the little genius in this forum told me why , every time i try to install a Aku3 rom on my wizard (fully unlocked,and with the good ipl/spl verson) i got stuck after the second reset on the green windows screen ,no way to go further but hard reset the device , at the end back to a lower rom ,in my case the molsky's rom wich i have to say is perfect (thanks Molsky) ,but i 'd like to try a fully aku3 rom only once, damned it !

Men give me credit for some genius. All the genius I have lies in this; when I have a subject in hand, I study it profoundly. Day and night it is before me. My mind becomes pervaded with it. Then the effort that I have made is what people are pleased to call the fruit of genius. It is the fruit of labor and thought.
i have the solution but as im not a genius the question wasnt meant to me, so im not going to answer...
ROFL, had to say that, sorry, i dunno how to solve ur problem...im using farias closed test aku 3.2 on my qtek 9100 and is working like a charm...
BTW vilem...why r u so sure he was referring to u??? LOL
i will be the self proclaimed genius for a minute... but it helps to know which aku3 rom you are trying to flash to..... riddle us that and maybe we can find you an answer
help needed on Aku3 rom
Thanks for the fellows who pretend to have the solution but wouldn't give it (there's not that much genius after all!) .
i stupidly thought this forum was for helping each others , but never mind .
well , i've tried the ell 's rom , i was betta tester for faria 's and hadd the problem.
could it be something with the extended rom , cause after the hard reset there is no track of it ...

well i dont know anything about ell's, but i think faria's first release had that problem, he had to correct it and re-upload it (dont qoute me, i havent been able to keep up with his thread much less this board) But try to re-download faria's beta and try it again...
Me, too
I've had the same problem, both with ell's and with faria's (version 3), it reaches 99% on the phone, then says finished on the PC, but never actually finishes. Board members suggested various things (rolling back to an earlier rom, cid unlocking) which I tried best I could. In particular, when I tried to cid unlock, which involves a long list of instructions including installing activeperl, the perl program reported a missing file and failed. I've installed several other roms, but perhaps thanks to the clever cooks (xelencin and molski) the cid unlocking was taken care of.
There is another thread on this issue which didn't seem to reach a conclusion.

He said Little Genius, I'm not that big...
btw, im using farias 3.2 and it has a minimal extrom, after a hard reset it finishes in about 3 seconds and it dont reset the device...it works that way...but u have to run a "setup" thats located in mi "mi documents/extras/runonce" but some bug makes the file "temperamental" so u have to run it several times sometimes...after the setup finish the device reset and u have the complete rom...
But all this only works when the rom proccess is finished, so this is not helpfull to the one having problem with not passing 99% ...
AKU3 problem
Well i've done all this with both rom even the run once on faria's ,it start ok with everything but after not the first re start but the second re start ,it froze on the green windows ...

Faria's AKU3.2 Rom doesn't have a Green Windows Splash Screen...
yea, its like a washed light blue...maybe he refers to that?
in my case i had problems in the begining, but i did a hard reset and everithing worked fine from then...
AKU3 problem
no i refer to the windows WM5 direct push screen you got just opening your device after the version number !
IMO it is more a light blue than a green...
did u tried a hard reset?
Ak3 problem
sure i did try several time ,anyway after the windows screen that the only way to start the device again ,and then it starts wihtout the extended rom ,how do you explain that ...

I don't think anyone can explain this, before you tell us exactly which "AKU3" ROM you're using. (The green screen puzzles me)
agree with vilem, r u sure u have the farias rom? (u r part of the test team, u received a mail from him with the password and a .doc with instructions and so on? what is the exact name of the file u downloaded and from where? )
and about the extrom question i quote myself again:

Aku 3 problem
Well i think i already said that a couple of time before ,i've tried all the AKU3 rom around ,ell ,faria and one other fellow i forgot the name but i don't think that's really important because all these roms were supposed to work with my wizard and did with many others , i can't join you a picture of this screen but everybody working on wm5 knows that damned windows screen which use to be blue on aku2 rom and it's now clear green on the aku3 rom (so far) ,just after the bootloader .
dunno the others aku3 but farias one dont have a green splash there...and i only have experience with farias version so i cant help you, sorry...
btw...farias version is in closed test so far, so unless u r part of the test team u hardly tried that particular one...
Which version of WM6 is better for the HTC Wizard/Cingular 8125/MDA? PDAVIET3 OR PDAVIET4? Will it run as snappy as a brand new untouched WM5 device?
They say "Underground Edition"
pdaviet4 = pdaviet3 + WMP error while playing mp4, mid, arm, ... fixed!
I just hate the complete PDAViet editions of Crossbow!!
There is only 1 Leaked Crossbow version from Microsoft and PDAViet already maked 4 versions and every time something wasn't good.....memory leak, Faria's name in the Camera app, WMP fix not included, wrong registry values and so on...
To me it looks that they just want to act though but are releasing unfinished and not well tested Roms.
Too bad I cannot release my Crossbow edition

There are a fair number of people, myself included, who have tried the various Crossbow ROMs and concluded, yourself included, that they are not ready for primetime...
But I reallyreallyreally want to move on to Crossbow! So, PLEASE, you, Faria, risidoro, the rest of the Wizard wizards, let us know if there is anything we can do to help!
I just installed it on my pda.... it's ok, but the key on the keypad are all wrong! when i try and type in y i get z and when i press z i get y... and so on... anyone know how to fix this. Or a beter rom build?

His CB is probably based on the same leaked version. He probably has done a better job at testing it. PDAViet CB's problem is they don't test it completely before releasing it. However, most of the tweaks are known already; therefore, all we need to do is do some minor fixed to make it works perfectly for us. Can't see how he can do a better job than what have already been known.
Back on topic. To the OP. Most of the "old" timers, the one who have tried the CB ROM since it was first realease such as Vilem will tell you that they like PDAViet ROM better than the Underground. Most of the Johnny come lately will jump on the band wagon and tell you that Underground is the best because it was released recently . Well, you can always test all of the version by yourself. I have tried the Orwell, Underground, and I still come back to the PDAViet.
PDAViet 4 = PDAViet 3 without the cooked signature on the splash screen and some minor fixed.
Mr UZI man, am looking forward to your release whenever that might come. But I would say Orwells with all registry fixes is best. If it HAD t be bewtween PDAviet3 or 4, 3 is better than 4.

It is....but it is much better tested and less bugs and more integrated in the Rom itself!
Molski
yeah , i was also testing PDAviet4 and it sucks can't actually believe people are still using it , i went back to faria's version that look like WM6
I recommend not to used till T mobile release its MW6 version
... but, the link doesn't work properly!!!
They are working in wrong direction
They announce it on frontpage, then later they might add it as a content for us to download
Usually ppl set up things to work before they announce, lol
Very good news.
But I think it is the same ROM that ftp://210.136.175.150/romcode/RomCode/HERALD-C9

As long as we are talking about a P4350 (not a wing, or dpod), and updates are available in your local language, you shouldn't have any problems with the current Herald updates.
Well look at the image below:
It looks like I am downgrading!
yeah, i also wonderd about this fact, but it's okay.
Well it worked like a charm...!
And now is WM6 ROM available on HTC website!
Sign in to HTC eClub, and you will be able to download the official ROM (same version as the one that showed up last week)!
