I would like to Upgade to WM5 please inform me if I have to backup my WM 2003 and How I have to make it. :lol:
U% can use spirite backup
Ahem....... please forgive me for resurrecting this old post but i to have a PDA2K and i`m wondering if i should upgrade to WM5
I won`t mine if i took the risk to upgrade the Rom, i previously own a sx66 and i loved the speaker phone but i cant activate the speaker phone on this one and for some crazy reason, I can`t hear the caller at the other end of the line. Once the call has been place I can accept the call but i hear nothing!
The same goes for making a call to someone, they hear their cell ring but upon anwsering they hear nothing :?
I did a hard reset also but no help there

getmad,
For reception problems... Upgrade your Radio to latest - 1.15
WM5 - try the latest from Helmi
i`m i think i may have done something stupid, i tried to flash back to 1.40 imate rom and now the poor thing is just reading USB v2.08 in the craddle
O dear
You are in bootloader mode, thats good way to continue flash.
Because there is no more big issue with WM5 such as speed you can try Helmi WM5.
Or flash to 1.42 WM2003SE

I am sure u can find there everything you need
Thanks to kerio, kumar00455
I could kiss u guys, at first i thought my phone was dead and i was like OMG wheres the Friggin System restore feature :lol:
Anyway, my phone is now lively again running WM5 and the latest Radio 1.15.
For some odd reason i still have the same problem which is not hearing the person voice on the incoming end of it. Even when i place a call i don`t hear the ringing effect which is telling me that the other user phone is ringing. Its just plain slient, and yes the in call volume is turned up.
I`ll swap some different sim cards in the phone tomorrow to see if it works
If u have any ideas i would certainly like to hear them
I have to say, XDAdevlopers really helps users with there issuse all u have to do is read the info. I am proud to say i`m running WM5 on my BA and i learn to upgrade it from here
Thanks again :wink:

Hello guys.
Here is my situation.
Innitially, my xdaiis was running rom 1.42 www and radio rom 1.13 but i was having problems with small mic volume which makes it very hard for the other party to hear me during a telephone conversation.
Then i decided to upgrade to radio rom version 1.15 and the problem did not go away, infact, it seems to create a new one. The sound for the first second would be fine, then it gets to a nearly muted level. More frustrating I would say.
Can i downgrade my radio rom to version 1.12 (this is what the xda was shipped with) and I hope this will work. Having a ppc phone that does not function well as a phone is quite frustrating.
So please comment and point me to the right direction.
Thankyou. :lol: :lol:
Hi guy
You should flash the 2003's ROM after you updatong the RADIO,then the wrongs maybe disappear
Have a try,Good luck
Apologies but I could not make sense of what you've posted. Would you mind rephrasing? I now am forced to use the included headset, sound is fine. This then makes me wonder: is it a software or hardware problem.
Hello everyone!
I wanted to let everyone know that I definately appreciate the effort put forth to get Blue Angels to run W2K5.
Ivan 4.0 thus far had the best results for my Siemens SX66 w/ out camera. I was running Ivan with Radio 1.15.
I have kept up with Mamaich's updates and decided to downgrade my radio back to 1.12 to see if there would be any sounds improvements. I noticed right away that the speed of the device improved dramatically especially regarding actual rings from when callers call me. When callers call me, it doesn't just sit there and show me and ring on the third ring but it really does ring on the first time the call routes through. NO DELAY!
Also, when placing calls and answering calls, i noticed a dramatic upgrade in speed.
I wanted to also thank everyone involved in making a base rom.
I had a request to really find out how to integrate my software into the rom directly thus improving the available space on my phone. Extended rom is showing but I didn't know how to use it.
I also installed items into the SD card without any problems but if there is a link of something i can read to learn how to preinstall certain cab files and software, i would appreciate it.
Thanks everyone! Let me know if other radio editions improve call handling!
Hi there!
For the last few days, I keep on saying the same thing: radio version 1.15 has problems with WM5. See post http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=48215&start=75 so I have downgraded to radio version 1.13. Have you tried radio version 1.13 vs 1.12? I haven't seen any difference between 1.12 and 1.13 (using European networks). I'd like to have your report if possible. Thank you.
well ive been using radio 1.13 since ever..never upgraded..my OS , details are in my signature...but yes ive got the call delay..around 2-3 seconds..
otherwise calling too is decent..not too fast as baeshin has said..maybe i will try downgrading to 1.12 and see the difference
i also use sx66, can you tell me where i could get 1.12 radio rom? thx!
I guess I would like this older Radio too... could not hurt to much to try it out.
the files should be on the ftp. i tried to downgrade to 1.13 but i don't think it was meant for siemens sx66. i recall reading somewhere that it was for another device.
1.12 radio rom can be found in 1.40 WM2003SE ROM
At the moment I hate my 1 week old QTEK 9090.
To enable GPRS I normally have to reboot.
Sometimes to get Wifi and BT working I have to reboot.
GPRS drops out during a phone call
Sometimes I have to reboot when there is no sound at all on the device. Just no sound at all.
I have had it a week. Probably had to reboot it at least 3 times a day and the reboot is LONG!
Wow such a good concept let down by a HUGE number of bugs
What version rom and radio does your 9090 use? (start menu>settings>device information)
check here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
for latest official rom release by your phones manufacturer. Possibly an upgrade is beneficial! Either that, or your phone may have hardware issues. Check your service provider for repair/rma services.
Good luck!
Thanks for that.
I will check. One issue I have a work around for....
I only lose sound when I close down Windows Media Player before I stop the music. Stop it first and then close and all is fine. That is a start.
I wish the ROM upgrades were simpler like on my Treo 650.....upgrade does a backup, flashes the new ROM and then brings back the data....
I found my device and rom on that link ta. So does that mean I have the latets for my device....
This is exactly my 9090:
Qtek WWE OP ID 1.40.00 1.40.147 1.12.00
Protocol version 1337.42
So I must have the latest ROM for my device...ripper.
Rom
Yeah you have the latest rom. when i 1st got my qtek i had some strange issues as well. what i ended up doing was to install a different rom (downgrade) and then install back to my rom (latest version). Hey presto my pda was running much smother.
Take your time to read all the info on the forum and most of all read wiki!! It takes some time to get used to wm2003se if your switching from palm. Have fun!!!
Thanks.
I have used many PPC devices as well. Last one was AXIM X50V. Before that was IPAQ 2210, IPAQ 1930.......
From the 2210 onwards everything was nice and stable.
Just this device.....!!
If I could get it to reliably start up GPRS and wireless every time I would be fine. BT is not such an issue.
Now I have solved my sound problem that is excellent.
good bye wm2003se
I will be really honest with you!!! when i was using my pda with wm2003se i had to soft reset my device 5-6 times a day....wifi being the biggest problem. needles to say it was critical to have a good backup software (Sprite). after being really frustrated i found this site....(thanks god)....know i use wm5 and guess what after 8 weeks i have not had to soft reset my device once. wm5 at the moment is not perfect but for me its stable and quick enough.
Cool....so moving my QTEK 9090 to WM5 what should I look out for? What are the issues? Will I get anything else? Lose anything?
Stability is 100% key for, but in terms of features, WM2003SE has everything i need. It just doesn't work all of the time.
What WM5 ROM do you recommend?
Oops I see Ivan....got a link?
So what is the best procedure to do the backup?
Can I easily go back to the original ROM?
Ivan 4.3
it really depends how you use your pda and what kind of functionality you want. for me speed and stability are essential. i dont use blue tooth to much just to transfer data...(no headset). as all users of wm5 will tell you there are pros and cons with each wm5 rom. my advice is to read the forums and pick a version that best suits your needs. in any case you will have to do some hacks to really bring the best out of your device on wm5. see my sig for what i have installed.
forgot to answer your question. to downgrade your device is much easier than to upgrade. before you go down this road please READ wiki carefully!!!
so i decided to flash back to WM5 after having too many missed calls with every WM6 rom i tried. My question is, can/shoul i use a different radio with WM5? I'm using 2.19 and have spotty reception, especially in my office. Just not sure if the radios out there that I tried with WM6 will play nicely with WM5 (i.e., am i going to hve the missed call problem).
thanks!
if you having data transfer that will cause missed call problem any wm5 and wm6 rom.i am using wm6 snd 2.i dont have any missed call problem with any radio rom.nevertheless when i am downloading something that moment i am having missed call.thats it..do u understand me what i am trying to say my friend...my suggestion is cingular 2.25 is good choice.signal is better than 2.19..sorry about my english.cheers
thanks..i'll give it a shot
Please help!
I have a Cingular SX66 that all of a sudden the major phone functions just quit.
Wheb I dial out it appears to be dialing out, shows a connection and connect time, singal strength is good but I can not hear the person on the other end nor can they hear me talking. On incoming calls, the phone rings yet again the same problem a mute connection. (mute is off). Everything else functions properly
If anyone could please help me I would greatly appreciate it.
Phone is in its original configuration
ROM version: 1.20.10 WWE
ROM date: 10/08/04
Radio version: 1.02.10
Protocol version: 1337.35
ExtROM version: 1.20.115 WWE
Alan
try reflashing with a different ROM to see if it fixes it
I will try that, since the BA upgrade list does not show one specificto the Cingular SX66 is there one you would suggest?
Thanks Alan
this happened to me too just today.... i thought i got something broken inside so i disassembled my BA using the guide on wiki.. reheated all the ic's (insane) and then reassemble it... but nothin happens... nada..
one thing i noticed is when i reboot, sometime i see my version nmber on my radio... but sometimes i see is none..
R : none
G : none
B : 5.04.09 wwe
please help
Sometimes that happen with the BA and wm5 (r: none...). The solution is to soft reset it.
About the "can't hear" thing, did you install any new program and then the problem begun?
been investigating this.... it turned out to be a hardware fault.. my charger kind pulled out the thingie inside and i just cleaned it and do things with it..
i dont know jack about all the things inside (as you can see bout my post) but its working now have to test it again and again though...
Thanks Matthew,
I did try reflashing. 1st time with the official siemens rom upgrade and the 1.15 radio rom and it worked for a few calls then then quit so I reflashed with the 1.12 radio rom and it did the same thing - worked for a few calls and quit. It's like it goes into a mute function-cant hear ,cant talk. Yet every other function of the phone works and it shows good signal strength. The phone only has 92 incoming & 50 outgoing hours on it
Thanks for all the help from everyone , this is driving me crazy!!
I'll keep working on it
