QTEK 9100 doesn't connect to Wifi

Hi
I bought a QTEK 9100. The only problem I have is that WIFI is not able to connect to WAP. I bought it in Nanjing (China). I read in some pages that wifi is disabled for chinese market (is that true??)
Does anybody knows the proper English ROM that solves the problem?
I visited ftp://xda:[email protected]/ but I don't know which one is the proper one.
Another question I have, is it possible that this problem could be something related to the hardware or is just upgrading the ROM?
I will really appreciate BIG HELP
by the way, I'm not used to this kind of device, so a detailed explanation will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Well, I haven't heard that either (about CN market devices), but you can flash it with any HTC Wizards ROM.
Qtek 9100 = O2 XDA mini S = T-Mobile MDA Vario = many others, so their ROMs are interchangeable.
Yesterday, I've changed my i-Mate K-JAM ROM (v2.16) with a newer O2 XDA mini S (2.21) and it works fine.
That one you can find here:
ftp://[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/o2/Xda_Minis_Upgrade_v2.21.4.101.exe

Before you go and flash your device (which is a risky procedure even with an official ROM) could you tell us a bit more about your problem:
Can you turn WIFI on? There should be a flushing blue light when it is on.
Are there any hot spots / wifi networks in your area, and are they open? Some times a network can block devices based on their MAC address. The network will still appear open (no need for WAP key) but only authorised devices can connect.
Whose WAP service are you trying to access? I know that some cellular providers only allow access to their WAP portals from phones purchased from them (something about special configuration, not sure).
If the answer to the first question is YES, then ROM is not your problem, so don't bother flashing the device.
Any way, good luck.

Qtek's version of the movie Terminal

I am considering changing my name to Victor Nabrovski. I have a Qtek 9090 on Orange (very strange I know). My ROM Version is 1.40.00 WWE and ExtROM version is 1.40.147 WWE. Now I have been informed that I require a rom upgrade to use blackberry connect however nobody will allow me to use their rom updates!
When I try to register on the Qtek site, it tells me that my IMEI number is not a valid Qtek phone - I am perplexed as to how their branding landed up on my device and box then! Orange won't allow me to download it for the same reason and they won't even provide me with support for this phone - even though a dealer sold it to me on this package (ie 9090 on Orange contract). The dealer was online and provides no support of this type and keeps referring me to Orange, who refer me to Qtek, who won't accept my phone as one of their's!
I am relatively new to this all but please can somebody help me in this respect - what is the best step forward for me?

here's a link to this sites ftp
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/
and another to this sites wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/
you will find the files you need on the ftp or in the forums and all the info you need on the wiki
good luck

Thanks for that - tell me, did you get blackberry connect working through Orange? I have read that unless you buy a Blackberry device from them that they will not turn it on for you. Is this true?

Hi
Sorry I dont use blackberry connect, do you specifically need blackberry connect? or could you use the push email (does the same sort of thing) that comes with the later aku2 roms?
Good luck

HTC p3600 "Navigation CD" will not install GPS ROM on my device!

I have bought an HTC p3600 from Expansys in the UK with a UK Vodafone pay monthly contract. It came with the Navigation CD to install the GPS enabled ROM. The CD will not allow me to install the software on my device. When I get to the 'Auto Detect' stage of the on screen instructions and click the Detect button I get this message 'The device connected to the PC does not appear to be a HTC P3600. Please make sure the USB cable is connnected on both sides and that ActiveSync has recognised the phone and press <Retry>'. The device is connected and I have just succesfully synced it with ActiveSync (version 4.5.0) which gives the name of the device as 'HTC p3600'. 'Retry' produces the same message. I have tried several times. Note that my HTC p3600 is now fully set up and in daily use i.e. I did not try installing the CD immediately on receiving the handset. What can I do? I am aware that the ROM upgrade is available on the HTC website for download but I am worried about installing it from there in case it infringes my contract with Vodafone/erases Vodafone software that is essential to my connection.

If it's that essential to you to maintain legal support from Vodafone, then LET them handle this issue for you. You've described the problem well enough, even for them, to get working... That's what they're there for; what you f***ng pay them for!
But if you're brave and don't mind doing some more manual labor (only having to set more system settings manualy; like SMS-setting, internet settings, etc), just go ahead and install the official HTC GPS-ROM in your language: that should work just fine, unless Voda has cripled your device with some curious lock on the ROM or so...
As for 'cooked' ROM's: there is a great community right here to help you out with trying out some 'custom' stuff
What you still might try in your current case is to get to bootloader (see here on the Wiki for instructions) and then try too flash again...
(However it does sound like you're following some strange custom setupapplication which does some crazy things)

thanks
Apologies for submitting thread twice, oops. Thanks Moaske for your advice. I will pursue the Vodafone option first but failing that I will follow your suggestions. I don't mind getting my hands dirty.

I think you can basically do what you like with the phone with regards official HTC SIM's because you bought a non Vodafone branded device with a 'stand alone' Vodafone contract via Expansys,
So, essentially, your beef is with Expansys who provided the device, not Vodafone who provide the service, but don't yet officially support the P3600 (though they are planning on releasing it as the VPS Compact GPS at some point).
If the CD provided won't install, either the CD image is faulty, or the P3600 itself is faulty. You need to talk to Expansys customer services.
Don't worry about losing your settings with a ROM update- HTC have a small configuration program available to download on their site, which does all the configs for you. It is also quite easy to enter them manually, and there are a number of sites that publish the settings for all the operators.

My mistake... NeilM is absolutely right on this one... (i thought you had the VPA GPS). My advice would be; get a new HTC ROM... don't be afraid, we're here to help you

Orange network Kaiser

I am about to get an Orange network branded Kaiser phone, does anyone know if this is identical in function to the unlocked HTC version ie:- wifi, GPS, not crippled, and secondly is it easy to re-flash the rom to get rid of the Orange branding or is this difficult and could easily cause a malfunction and lock the device.
Thanks

1) wifi and GPS all work fine.
2) The Orange homescreen is deselectable on Today settings, Item tab. You can then install the HTChome if you download it from here.
3) If you really want to flash the HTC rom (or a cooked one from here), I think its easy...but I havent bothered. Other than the colour scheme on the dialler page, its fine.

I have an orange branded kaiser, tomtom is not on it nor is wlm from stock, within an hr I had flashed the htc rom, giving me wlm etc and then installed tomtom from the thread in this forum and installed the maps etc from my other copy.
easy enough to do if you follow the instructions on this forum.

How you managed to get one? Retentions?

Mine was from O retail (as I couldnt talk to retentions til next month)

Thanks for all the info,
The company I work for has 6 mobile phones and we were contacted by Orange about an upgrade so I asked if we could upgrade to the Kaiser and they said yes no problem and no charge for the upgrade.

They are very keen on retaining business accounts at present. Make sure you get free calls between the six of you and a worthwhile data package.

AvengerPenguin,
Sorry to be a pain but I have never flashed a rom before and don't want to mess up can you reply with the link to the standard HTC rom and any simple instructions and also a link to the TomTom software as I have the maps I can use that I purchased for my old Artemis.
Thanks

Kaiser O2 to Vodaphone - web not working

Hi,
I have an O2 branded Stellar ie a Kaiser. Was working fine on O2 for internet, and just changed to Vodaphone (in the UK). Despite putting in the recommended settings of wap.vodaphone.co.uk username web/ password web into a new modem connection it won't go online. Any ideas from anyone who has done this?
Vodaphone won't help me - told me to called HTC!
cheers
Rob

Have you tried using HTC Connection Setup to reconfigure your connections?

HI - well I've been into Settings/Connections/Connections/Add a new modem connection and put in all the details I found here:
http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html
and it won't connect properly when I try to go online.
Or do you mean somewhere else?
thanks

If you go to Start, Settings, Connections, do you see an item called Connection Setup?
If not, try download and installing this cab on your phone. Once you install it, soft-reset and then go back to the same place mentioned above. Run Connection Setup and select your location and operator. It should configure your connections for you and restart your device (or prompt you to do it yourself).

Thanks this and another thread from Basti have got me up and running - voda needs a proxy apparantly...

The connection wizard will handle both networks

As someone who has used both Vodafone and (now) O2 in the UK on an HTC branded Kaiser, I've always found the connection wizard in the default HTC ROM to take care of things fully and automatically. Have you thought about putting an HTC official ROM on it? The wiki and numerous threads here at xda explain how it's done. I could never get the Vodafone Live Website to work with my standard TyTN II BTW so don't be surprised if it definitely doesn't work with an O2 version of the same phone
