I am a Newbie so be patient with me and your advice is appreciated.
I have a Qtek 9100 (Wiza200) G3
Rom 1.1.7.5
Radio 4.0.13.16
Ext rom 1.1.7.105
I purchased the phone unlocked and have used it with sim's from other countries. When I attempt to run the following updates.
RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE-30MB
RUU_Molski.Biz_AKU2.3-226102_22610105_024711_WWE-30MB-CF2
I get the error "file name is not a valid Pocket PC application".
What am I doing wrong?
(I have also read all the recommended threats which were great. Thanks for sharing)
you obvious did not read all the recommenced sites! My guess is that you tried to run the upgrade file in pocket pc. You must connect your phone to the computer and establish activsync connection first. than you run the upgrade file on your computer

Navy2010 is correct you are running the updates from your PPC this won't work. You must run the programs from a PC. I also suggest a little more reading.
To get you started have a look at these threads:

Make sure you have CID unlocked the device.

Thanks Gents but one more question for u?
The upgrade went perfectly. Thanks
The reason I was trying to upgrade the ROM is not resolved still.
When device is in the Portrait position (slide is closed) my touch screen works maybe 20% of the time. When I open the slide the touch screen works perfectly. The issue still occurs after the upgrade.
Any recommendations?

Sounds like a hardware failure and could be the reason the phone was sold... ?? If you can return it under some warrantee, I'd lean that direction.

I agree.
Yep I agree. I have sent an email to the seller. In all fairness He sold me a brand new device and he has been pretty good so far. Let see what he says now. I'll update the post when he gets back to me. Thanks for you comments.
Seller has sent me an RMA form
I guess he is going to repair it or replace it.
He emailed me an RMA form which I have sent back. Saga continues.

I have had this problem but in reverse it turned out to be muck under the screen and would cause the start button to activate by just pushing the side of the case.
Get a laminated buisness card or something like it and slide it in between the screen and case
You may have something here
Thanks Eddieitman. I tried it and nothing much came out, but usually after a few mins the screen locks up. This time it's still responsive after 15mins. We'll wait and see after an hour if it still works. fingers are cross.
btw nice site.
Still locking up but a little squeeze works. lol
I am talking about the device. lol Unfortunately, it's still locking up. But when I squeeze the sides of screen it comes back. Sounds like my situation maybe a little worse than yours. I going to send it back and see what they do. thks for the help.
Screen issue not covered by warrantee.
This is a Update/FYI.
I sent my phone into Arvato Teleservice out of Germany to fix the screen issue. $97.00 cdn to do so. First off their customer service is absolutely horrendous. So avoid them.
They determined the issue to be a damaged Main Board, but because of the flashed ROM they are not going to do it under warrantee. I should of downgraded before sending it in (my fault). I am still fighting with them.
Cost to fix $490.00repair + $97.00shipping = buy a new phone.
I am not suggesting it is a result of the ROM but wondering has anyone experienced screen issues after flashing the ROM?
ok ive just bought an M2000, which is currently on orange, well i think it is, its got the orange logo on the front. i want to put an orange sim card into it,however it just says the service provider is locked. ive tried unlocking it with some software but that hasnt seemed to have worked? anyone got any advice or point me in the right direction of what to do?
cheers

yeah ive done all that the only problem is... when i go to run the program that it tells u to download onto your phone, my phone wont run it and it says the program is not a valid pc application
any one know how to fix that?
ahhh ok.. well the program didnt work but i no longer have to use a code... the phones actng a bit crappy now and wont load certain things up.. i think ive broken it. does anyone know how i can reset the phone. and reinstall the original windows mobile 2003??
cheers???
I dont think you have broken your phone but
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
(the section is called How to upgrade to the lastest ROM (currently 1.42))
but you can read more
1. Do a hard reset to bring it to the original state.
2. Unlock it
3. Upgrade your ROM to what ever version you want.
Here is how you do a hard reset.
--------------------------------
Hold down the Power button (Top Right corner) and at the same time put your Stylus pen in the hole where it says “Reset” (Lower Left corner).
I bought an ATT tilt quite a while ago. It is out of warranty now, and wouldn't you know it, something went wrong.
I'm currently using Dutty's Diamond ROM (with the keyboard fix installed), but the same happened before with the official ROM. While I text some keys don't work. I'll be typing away, just to look at the screen and see that I am missing a bunch of letters, rendering the message unreadable. I then have to go back and fill in all the blanks, and even then sometimes it takes several tries to get it to go. The same happens with the backspace key; sometimes it just doesn't work, other times it does (oddly enough, when it doesn't work normally, it usually lets me hit "function" and use it as the delete key).
My other concern is that there is a ton of lag while typing. It takes a while for letters to show up. Is that normal (for the Tilt, at least. I'm still wishing I had bought a BlackBerry)?
Yeah, I had similar troubles. I just upgraded my SPL and hopefully will be testing it further testing.
what SPL are you running?
I'm not entirely sure, it was a while ago that I flashed the ROM. How do I find out what it is? I tried Device Information, but it wasn't there.
you have to put it in Bootloader mode.
hold power and camera button while resetting with the stylus, then you'll come to the tricolor screen which will give you the SPL info.
KAIS1*0 MFG
SPL-1.0.OliPof
CPLD-8
I am having the same exact problem, 1 out of 5 times it works corectly so im thinking it has to be somekind of software, my problem started when I started using ROMeOS's rom's and I have tried different SPL's virsions.
I've heard that the keyboard/membrane may be the problem. Is that likely? If so, is there anywhere to buy them?

Thanks!
But they only have the outer keypad (the one right below the screen). Well, I hope this can be fixed with software, because the only place I saw that listed them showed them at $39.99 and they were out of stock.

I got the same SPL he has, I did a hard reset afterwards then downgraded back to 1.0 because I saw no improvement.
I thought RomeOS worked best with 3.29.

found this in another thread!
Success! If the SPL doesn't work and I can't convince AT&T to do it, I'll order one and put it in. How do you install it?
EDIT: I just installed skyfire, and noticed that while I was putting in my email and password it was smooth and nothing was skipped. I'm almost 100% certain this is a problem with WinMo itself
I have been having the same problem as you are describing, but I have noticed that it is with heavy use keys like T, H, E, R, S and for some reason V.
I was getting the feeling that it was a hardware problem rather than a software problem because, especially with the V, I have to apply a bit of pressure to get the button to work.
Unfortunately for me I bought mine off Ebay so the warranty is already void.
Incidentally mine started happening when I had the original network providers (T-Mobile) rom on it. I have since installed an original HTC rom and it hasnt made the slightest bit of difference.
So, how easy is it to open up the back of the Tytn II and replace the keyboard unit then?
Oh my god! Thank you for posting this. I swear I have always felt like posting this but always got too lazy. I thought it was only me that had this problem. It is so annoying typing away, and then having to spend another minute to retype the letters that didn't get inputed the first time. It is so frustrating and I thought it was my fault or something, or ROM, I believe its hardware related, but I am not going to spend another dime on this POS. I'm just not so patiently awaiting t-mobile to release their android device, and I will jump ship and never look back! Thanks for the post again, it has given me piece of mind.....ironically
I'm kind of wanting T-Mobile's Android phone, but seeing as how it's made by HTC, I'll wait for the first couple of user-reviews to come out. I bought the Tilt based on website reviews, but man, I was really misled. They said the camera was great, I can only get blurry unrecognizable images. They made no mention of the fact that when you switch to landscape it takes 3 seconds for all the graphics to appear.
I'm disappointed, and I think my next phone will be a plain vanilla flip phone.
Anywho, I'm updating the SPL now, I'll post if it makes any change.
Okay, I now have HardSPL 3.56 and there does not appear to be much of a change. There was some short lag at the beginning of the text string, but afterwards it caught up. I missed no letters this time. I cannot say how much of this was the placebo effect (i.e. it just felt faster), but perhaps if everyone with the issue tries we can have a reasonable answer.
ETA: I added a poll, so if you try this, fill in the poll!
disable word suggestion under Input setting.
i don't miss any characters with it disabled.
It was already disabled for me. I know I didn't change it, I think the ROM came that way.
hey i just bought a x1 and it has a keyboard issue.. when i slide it open the screen doesn't rotate and it kinda freezes, whatever buttons i push doesn't do anything. once i slide it closed everything i pushed happens.. it originally had the pure upgrade wm6.5 rom on it when i bought it. i tried installing different roms - barebones,stock rom,826x and none has fixed the keyboard issue. what can i do?
Nothing I guess, except trying another rom; every device (other than xperia) has some problems with some roms. I heard Energy is the best you can get.
hey thanks for your response. ill try installing this energy rom and hope it can fix it
ur flexible cable wasted..go get it replaced at service centre.
Ho I'm sorry, I thought you said none other rom had this problem, misread...
Will this be a free repair from Sony or about how much should I be looking to spend $
if your under warranty then of course its free!
also make sure you flash a stock rom, then flash the stock-SPL back, otherwise they won't fix it.
in indonesia about US$50-$75
ok sounds good. i think i flashed it back to stock and stock spl is there a way to make sure?
go into the tri colour bootloader screen
and it shouldnt say OliNex anymore
and it should say 0.72.0000
and obviously the stock rom is easy enough to recognise

hello guys, i have problem with my keyboard too. but its something else.
when i am typing a sms, a lot of letters appear twice or more in screen or letter appear slowly. in any other application, like notes, or work, keyboard is fine. any ideas for it?
i am having the same problem, i have tried 3 different roms
none of them rotate properly.
its not the device because it was working fine with android and wm 6.1
Hi all,
Anyone else having any issues like this? I see this was a common problem on that HTC One X as well (thread for reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010897 ). I haven't seen any reports of this and I searched the forums and the internet...maybe I've had bad luck because of the similar name, but I haven't heard anything official from XDA or otherwise
Occasionally, it seems that the middle area can work if there is enough static on the screen. Here is my screen map to show what I'm talking about:
UPDATE:
How strange. This issue started happening on Saturday, but on Monday when I was about to go down to T-Mobile to return the phone for a warranty repair, it suddenly fixed itself. I have full screen functionality. I didn't change any settings, didn't flash anything new, etc. The phone was never turned off (other than when I was testing if a restart or power cycle would fix it). I'll keep monitoring it in any case...

Exactly, I haven't heard before this similar problem... I think you are the first.
Have you installed a special app ?
Have you tried to reboot before to use it a another time ?
But I think that it's a problem with your touchscreen. So the best you can do, it's to send it back to HTC
This is definitely a digitizer defect. Only fix is to replace the glass/digitizer. Send it back to HTC as soon as possible because it will only get worse over time. I had the same problem with my one X

I have the same problem; RMA time it seems. I am a bit worried if they will accept it under warranty or not, because I unlocked the bootloader .

Did you find out if it can be replaced under warranty if you unlock your boot loader? I also have the exact same problem on mine the top part of my screen which has a completely bunked touch sensor it goes nuts if used touch anywhere near the top of the phone..
But like you I unlocked my boot loader and installed quite a few different roms thinking it would solve the problem… I am wondering if there is a way to relock the boot loader and make it look like it never happened? Although I doubt it because they probably have the information about the phone at HTC since they sent me the token to unlock it..
Well, apparently there isn't much you can do if you are on hboot 1.54 (like me), since you need to be s-off to erase the *tampered* flag if you just relock it will stay.
I didn't send it for repairs yet, but I will report when I do.
Hello guys,
i've got the same problem, my phone just started to act very wired, my top part of the display is not responsible, seems part of touchscreen is broken. Have you solved it somehow or you applied for warranty.
the same situation -bootloader unlocked and flashed different roms, I'm S ON, so can't flash RUU to see if it's software problem or HW
Did you brought it back to HTC? Since today im having the same problem.. Same for me, unlocked. Guess I'll have to pay

yes, you can simply revert everything back to stock, btw please do so asap, i'm really interested in if the stock will solve the problem with touchscreen, best would be if you flash RUU, please let me know the result

Yes I will report back when I flashed RUU. I'm pretty 100% this will not solve the problem but it's worth the try.
I'm also really struggling if I should it send back to HTC or not, I have this feeling they will flash my Hboot to 1.54 so newer customers can't get their hands on S-Off. A local telephone repair-dudey could fix my screen for 170 euro which is a pretty good deal.
I Sent HTC an e-mail with the current situation and still waiting for a reply, will report the whole story back

Okay I flashed RUU but with no avail. Im still having a line in my screen that doesnt work! I'm thinking of just letting it repair by the local telephone guy. HTC here in the netherlands work with an external company called Dynafix which will take about 3-4 weeks of time to repair it, and I'm also afraid that they will upgrade my hboot to 1.54 so I will lose the ability to s-off. (Not 100% sure, but just feeling it)
I hope you have enough information, we're both screwed without replacing a digitizer.. oh well, karma will strike back someday
They won't put you back to s-on, read in another thread that some phones ship with s-off and htc do not have any way of knowing who set the flag to off
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
HTC should replace your ones under warranty regardless of bootloader/soff. It is a physical hardware issue and has nothing to do with the software on the phone.

not good news, i was hoping that the problem might be fixed once RUU is flashed at least we know that repair center is the only option here
i would suggest to send the phone to HTC, better than to give it to someone to fix it, this phone is quite complicated when speaking about opening, but up to u and i think u will get a new phone if u send it to htc repair center... so no signs that the phone was opened etc.. up to u, the same with my phone, if i apply for warranty i will have to wait about 30 days, but for now no go without LOCKED and TEMPERED removed..
if i had to apply for warranty with tempered...no s off in upcoming few months, i will arrgue with HTC that screen HW itself doesn';t have anything with software, even if there would be status "hahaha htc" and not unlocked i will not pay for their crap more money
Well I have really no idea what happened but the phone decided to fix itself and I no longer have digitizer problems anymore.. So far its working (for over more then 8 hours already).
But yeah, you are right, it's probably better to bring it to HTC then a local repair shop when it get's broken again.
Well that's that, I really hope your phone kicks back to it's normal state aswell!! (I received an email regarding my issue and they said a factory reset would help, I doubt it though.. flashed a RUU and the problem was still there)
Same Problem ( is it HW or SW )
hello guys , i have the same problem as shown in the pic attached
i made HTC secret code and the Line Drawing test shows the problem well
, i made hard reset but still the same ,
i bought the phone from Amazon.com USA and now am in egypt
dont know if i can send it to HTC support
btw the problem time is unstable , sometimes working fine and other becoming weird any help ?
UPDATE : after contacting HTC support they replied to me with the below :
'' Thank you for your email regarding your HTC device. I apologize for the issues you have experienced with the device functionality, Mohamed.
There are a number of reasons that your device could be having this issue. It can be caused by an application, task killers, or software issues. To determine which one, we will need to put the phone in safe mode. Safe mode is a method that allows the device to run without non-essential applications.
Press and hold the power button until the power menu comes up then press and hold on the Power off option and pop up will come up with the option to reboot into safe mode.
After you put it in Safe Mode, try using it without third party applications for a at least 24 hours to see how the device works. If it does not have this issue, then it is one of your applications. Try adding them back one at a time to see which one is responsible.
If the issues still persist please contact HTC repairs: HTC RMA Center, 1-866-449-8358 8AM - 1AM ET 7 days a week. That way you can go through the repair process as it is a little complex and we would need to speak to you on the phone to setup the repair ticket.
If you have any other questions about your device please feel free to contact us via email at any time.''
i tried it but still the same , i think it is hardware issue :'(
Can anyone confirm whether this S-OFF software can re-lock the bootloader and make it look like the warranty is still intact ? I need to send my phone back to HTC for a new digitizer stat
Yeah it's possible. Here's a guide for you: http://www.htc1guru.com/guides/return-stock-guide/
