looks like the only thing up can do is upgrade radio

your extended ROM is different from mine? you got a 162 and I got a 126, is there any big difference? Also regarding the Radio worth it to upgrade my Qetk?
Thanks

The way I understand it so far is that the version number of an exteneded rom is based on the carrier.
What I am saying is that just because I-mate has a Extrom 1.22.999
does not mean that it is higher than Qtek Extrom 1.22.111
all it says it that for I-Mate 999 would be a Higher version than I-Mate 1.22.555
What I have found out is that there are 4 types of cabs in the exteneded rom.
1) Upagrade and patches that build on the OS in this case 1.22.
2) Carrier settings, such as splash screens and MMS setings.
3) Free software such as zip and the PDF reader
4) Hardware upgrades like buuton9 which is only avalible on a Pocket pc that has a Hardware keyboard.
Thus my pratice is to leave the exteneded rom as is and cook it later.

Thanks so far since I don't have to complain of the present situation, I will leave everything as it is and wait for a new 1.XX rom

ROM Update: is this possible?

Greetings all. I am new here, but hopefully I will be able to contribute in some small way to the community. After reading about the wiki, ROM kitchen, and cooking, I have a few small questions that will help me jump into the waters and help out.
I have a new PDA2K on Cingular here in the U.S. that came with ROM 1.22.00 WWE Radio 1.06.00 and EXT ROM 1.22.162 WWE.
I would like to update to the most recent ROMs for the Radio, primary, and extended ROM and still retain the new version of KSE Truefax 2.09 and possibly other software that came as part of the package from I-mate.
When cooking a ROM: Is it possible to retain any of the software from your own ROM and aggregating it with the best radio ROM, make a unit that is truly updated in every way possible? If I took elements from the "i-mate_PDA2k_Arabic_13100_112_10600_SHIP" release that is on the FTP site and added the 1.08 or 1.10 radio ROM, would I have certain components that are in Arabic or is that concept misleading?
My point is: I think will I lose the software that came with the unit when I cook a ROM to update the unit and I would like to keep it as I paid for it in my purchase price and I would like to use components from other language ROMs but am concerned I will have components in my phone after the update that are in a language I cannot read.
Please guide me if you have a moment.

I had hoped that I had covered all of this is wiki, but it seems not.
your deivce has 3 parts
1) the os version and its language
2) the extneded rom
3) the radio
each of these can be updated one at a time or all together.
1) The os part is based on the windows version and its build, if you can find a versiont that works with our tools you can update that. In this case the 1.31 arabic in WWE is a good choice.
2) the Extneded rom is based around the applicatons that the porvider gives you as well as the provider customization. Here you can pick and what you want and the term that we use on this site is cooking.
You will need to flush your exteneded rom and cook a new one with what you feel you want (like applications) and you feel you need (as in porider customisation)
3) The radio is based on the type of device you have and in your case can be updated to 1.08.00 as we have yet to find a copy of the 1.10.00
So your issue of the fax software is solved in the cooking of the exteneded rom. allas the files have gone as some nice person has trashed 2 months of work and deleted them. however the 1.22 kitchen is again around so you can get what you need from there or from your device. copy them into your exteneded rom, edit the config.txt and perform a hard reset.
So to keep the stuff you have you need to save the cabs out of your extended rom, update the device (os and radio), flush the exteneded rom and cook your own rom (all covered in the kitchen).
You will do fine and if you have a problem just post it.

Answer
This is exactly the sort of definitive and succinct answer I needed. Your simple clarification has helped me and will no doubt help others. Thank you, again.

WHOAH! :shock:
Am I reading this correctly? So I can pretty much update to whatever ROM version and radio version I want, regardless of language? Anything I need to look out for in particular? I've got the upgrade bug now! Got my BT upgraded to 3900.
ROM 1.22.00 WWE
Radio 1.06.00
extROM 1.22.162 WWE.
How far can I go in an English version? Or does it matter so long as my windows version is English?
Thanks again!

Upgrading from Qtek 2.18 Rom to T-Mobile 2.21 Rom

Got a little question for you guys,
Right now I have a Qtek 2.18 Rom installed (which I like very much), but wanna do a hard-reset and was thinking about an upgrade to a newer Dutch Rom.
The only newer Dutch Rom is the T-Mobile 2.21 Rom, but I DO NOT like all the T-Mobile customisations.
So my question is, if I install the T-Mobile Rom and then cut it off right before the customisation tools, will it be a clean Rom then, almost the same if that I would cut of the Qtek 2.18 Rom just before customisation tools will be installed? Or do I still have a lot of T-Mobile junk installed?
If it will be a clean WM5, I will install some of the Qtek and some of the T-Mobile Extended_Rom CABS to get a "normal" WM5 again (with MMS folder, ClearVue PDF and stuff like that).
I ask this question because as far as I know I CAN NOT downgrade to the Qtek 2.18 Rom again once I upgraded it to the T-Mobile 2.21 Rom (am I right?) so I cannot test it out for fun

Molski

Upgrading from Qtek 2.18 to T-Mobile 2.21 Rom (no problem!!)
Right now I am at work and got very bored, so I started to do some things for myself....like upgrading my Rom
Although I didn't got an answer to my questions, I took the shot and upgraded to a Dutch T-Mobile 2.21 Rom (with the chance that if I didn't like the T-Mobile Rom full of crap, I couldn't go back to my Dutch Qtek 2.18 Rom!).
So before my lunchbreak I upgraded it to the 2.21 Rom, tested it out for about 2 hours and came to the conclusion that it just sucked. I really don't like ANY carrierlogo's, skins, green batterymeter in the taskbar and other stuff of T-Mobile (cause I hate pink on my phone, it's not a gay or girls phone!).
So I tried to downgrade it and guess what, right NOW (while I am typing) my Rom is downgrading from T-Mobile 2.21 to Qtek 2.18 again without ANY problems!
This are the steps I have done with my Wizard (from the moment I got it):
- CID Unlocked my T-Mobile 1.08 Stock Rom
- Upgraded to this Qtek 2.18 Rom: RUU_Prodigy_2180706_21807106_20710_QTEK_Generic_DUT_Ship_2
- Upgraded again to this T-Mobile 2.21 Rom: RUU_Prodigy_2210205_22102108_021911_TMO_NL_DUT_Ship
- Downgraded my 2.21 Rom to my (good old) Qtek 2.18 Rom: RUU_Prodigy_2180706_21807106_20710_QTEK_Generic_DUT_Ship_2
So I don't understand why it's possible for me to downgrade/upgrade to whatever Rom I want and that other people have so many problems with this issue.
When Qtek releases a new Dutch Rom (hopefully an AKU2.3 Rom) I will upgrade my Wizard and will see if I can still downgrade it again.

How did you make super CID? What tools did you use for it? I have Qtek 9100, ROM version of this device is 2.17.7.2 WWE.
IPL 2.17.001
SPL 2.17.001
GSM 02.07.10
OS 2.17.7.2
I did the following operations to make the device SUPER CID:
I synchronized the devece with Active Sync 4.1 .
I started aWizard 1.3 beta 1.
I checked options u and e with aWizard 1.3 beta 1.
Then I started Lokiwiz02b and checked option C.
But it did not help.
After that I tried application unlock for SDA, and then started option C with Lokiwiz02b, but it didn't help.
How can I make the device SUPER CID?

When my Wizard got delivered by the mailman, the very first thing I did was CID unlock with LokiWiz 2.0b (the stock rom was a T-Mobile 1.08 Rom), after that I did an upgrade to the Qtek 2.18 Rom, today I did the upgrade to the T-Mobile 2.21 Rom and also today I downgraded it again to the 2.18 Rom.
Nothing more, nothing less
But I wanna know one thing for sure: By the upgrading and downgrading I did I can be sure my Wizard is Super CID unlocked or not (maybe Summiter, Machinagod, Faria or someone else can answer this for me)?
Or do I have to do some more testing to make sure? Right now, I am willing to try any Rom...as long it is in Dutch and not WWE, I would freak out if I upgrade it again to the WWE Mr. Clean Rom or something and then notice that I can't downgrade anymore
Another question:
Is there maybe someone that knows when Qtek is gonna release a new Rom?
I noticed a positive difference in the performance between the 2.18 and 2.21 Rom, but just like I said, I hate T-Mobile Roms, because they have a bunch of crap in them (like carrierlogo's and stuff like that)? And there are no Clean Custom Roms in Dutch language, so I have to stick with the Qtek Roms for now!

Right ROM for Wizard?

Hi,
I am a bit new at this, so please ignore my ignorance:
I have an Xda Mini from O2, which I bought over Ebay, with the Imate ROM installed. It is ROM version 2.16.9.1 WWE (2/6/06). The Radio version is 02.07.10, and the ExtROM version is 2.16.9.101.
I am having some problems, and see that I can upgrade to the latest ROM. There are various versions; the Xelecin 2.24 ROM, the Summiter 2.17, and a Mr Clean ROM as well. Can I install any of these, or are they specific to my location (Switzerland), the network (Swisscom), and/or the HW?
Thanks in advance for some pointers.

Upgrading again. Needing help!

Its been a while since I've on here. And I'm looking to upgrade my Cingular 8125 yet again.
PART-I:
Ok the first thing I want to try is just upgrading my Radio Rom since I'm missing calls and voicemails with no notification. My current Radio Rom is 02.25.11 and I seriously need this upgraded so any suggestion to which rom to use. (Please give me a link for upgrading Radio Rom only)
PART-II:
Maybe its time for me to upgrade the full ROM which is right now 2.17.7.2 WWE with Ext Rom 2.25.11.102. Its been pretty good. Not the fastest but has been very stable for me. Any rom's I should upgrade to, maybe even the Crossbow?

flash the t-mobile one that everyone loves, for the radio 2.26, then flash another which has the ext rom you want
I don't like wm6, it's buggy, and some progs don't work fully such as sbp products
superrom is quickest for me
followed by molski's 2.3
check the stickies for lockiwiz to get the t-mob, google for the others/pirate bay etc
