We and I say We all need to particaipate in the updating of the wiki.xda-developers.com
Short Version:
Who is willing to build the frame work of the BlueAngel in wiki.xda-developers.com
Long Version:
If you look at:
wiki.xda-developers.com
Its great!! Unless you own a Blueangel.
Well I do!
Personally I am sick of reading the same stuff about fix.bat over and over again.
Personally It has taken me a few weeks to get were I am Now and yes I have been able to find out a lot but it was Painful.
I Still have outstanding questions that were not answered for at the time I asked then they were just plain "Stupid".
A Newbie asking a question based on his limited knowledge.
We still see these questions, also left unanswered.
So as we have all been Newbie's playing with our new toys, should we not help others based on what we have learnt.
I have spent some time looking at that Blueangle and posting a few topics.
What I still have is a collection of How to for the BlueAngle that I feel are wrong if placed in the forum.
These are at the moment finished.
How to: Find out what my device is before upgrading
Goes into GetDeviceData, explains the fact why you only see the device name if opened on the device, ect ect.
How to: Find the correct upgrade ROM for me
Based on the get device info,
goes into how to find the upgrade, understanding the naming of the ship file, checking if it has a password
all based on a real example with real threads
How to: Install a upgrade and what tools to use.
All based on what was found before
all based on a real example with real threads
I am working
How to: Upgrade radio
Also based on the same as above.
One can add to that the Extended rom stuff out of the Rom kitchen.
Now here is my problem.
- I cant do this alone
- I have no Idea about how to do even basic web pages
- My spelling sucks.
So my contributions to this project is:
I have 3 canned inputs and am will to add to them.
So all we need:
1) A Person that understands how to update the wiki.xda-developers.com and thus build a frame work that we all can build on.
2) A place to take about it and make suggestion or corrections
--> which we have in this topic.
3) A starting point
---> being my canned input.
And that reads only as:
Who is willing to build the frame work of the BlueAngel in wiki.xda-developers.com.
Although many people read this forum, and a large number help on answering questions in the forum.
only a few make great posts in the forum, and even less put something in WIKI. Although with the knowledge gathered here I believe this wiki has the potential of being the best reference on the net.
I would be available for help on editing/checking whatever you put in WIKI, if you want me to. Just let me know what you want me to do in detail.
M4io
Thanks.
I understand what you are saying however my main problem is building the frame work.
At the stage of the game I am not even able post a Quote with out getting the Quote text

See what I mean.
Others can do it, me no way
We can go further on my lack of forum knowelege.
In the past I used to start off by hitting the bold, qoute, ect buttions so that I had a list to cut and paste from.
Now I GROWN and can just mark the text and hit the bold.
See .... I would get so lost trying to link the first page to the next.
You would end up on one of my personal links and your wife would not be amused.
Think the edit / checking is a great option, thanks for that!
but do we have any takers for the frame work part.
Well if this newbie could figure anything out I would help you.
if you will tell me were your want what link, and which new pages you want i can make them for you.
like if you want a blueangel link on the the Faq to a new page BlueAngelFAQ. Questions like that I can handle, but you have to figure out how the framework has to be. And supply the contents of the newpage.

Ok
under:
Other HTC devices
We need a new Link
BlueAngle
Which points to a new page. (BlueHome)
On that new page we need a photo on the top of a BlueAngell
We Start with one simple sections and have that a Title.
How to:
Under how to 3 links to a postion in a new page (Help01)
How to: Find out what my device is before upgrading
Linked to pointer in that same page (Help01:Findevice)
How to: Find the correct upgrade ROM for me
Linked to pointer in that same page (Help01:Findrom)
How to: Install a upgrade and what tools to use.
Linked to poiner in that same page (Help01:Instal)
I have the file in the same format as I would post here , will that work ?
So in total 2 new pages, home and help.
The help page will have 3 text blockes that can be fopund over the bluehome.
You still with me? and can you set that up and I dump the text in it.
like this?
I saw the link on the home page pointed to a different page than the page that was already there for the blueangel.
now they all point to Blueangel with lowercase 'a'.
... ah, and now m4io else has just created HTC_BlueAngel with capital A.
hope he sees the other page too.
yes, we were doing the same at the same time.
you can delete mine , it has no use now no
and http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BAHowTo should also be deleted
MDAIIIuser : you can edit this page :
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueangelFAQ
ok done
Now have a look at it I have formting problems
This is wha the first part should look like
In order to change your ROM to a higher or different Language version you need the following information.
1) What is my model Nr?
2) What is the Language Code of my ROM?
3) What is the operator code that my phone was shipped as.
4) What ROM do I have now?
5) What ExtendedRom do I have now?
6) What is my Radio Version
How to find all of this information in one place.
Step 1
Insure that your device is connected to your Desktop....
I get it all on one line.
Next problem
Under that cold you add
this is a qoote A
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
so I can work that syntax out?
Next Problem
Can you turn the "?"Link of for C:\XDA-Tools\?GetDeviceData.exe
and change the color to blue, again to work out syntax.
You are cool and I am learning, thanks
Thanks
Help
Ok lost again
Solved the nunber problem and thus created a new one and that is how to stay in the same numbering with text betwwen it.
What I need is a command that will generate a new line and yes I have tried the <new-line> and a few versions of it.
What I need is some color (blue, red)
What I need is getting rid of the "?" links.
Feel free to edit the page in so that I can work the syntax out.
Hey it looks Like s**t but its a start
Thanks!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueangelFAQ
have you see the TextFormattingRules?
a newline is three percent signs: %%%
this wiki has no support for colors.
the '?' links mean that you typed a WikiWord, and it has no page yet.
if you don't want it to be a link, add a tilde ( ~ ) before the word.
Have now! Thanks itsme.
Will sombody take a look, do some fixing on the spelling, give me some feed back?
Thanks
2 down 1 to go.
Hey buddie!
I can do some adjustments if you like but I don't know how!!!!
Explain it to me and I'll help!!!

Help
Hi all
I need some help!! with the Wiki Home Page.
1) I would appricate it if somebody would deal with the home page and look at the info that is there, if it is upto date and usefiul
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
2) I would appricate it if that person would add the following sections to that home page:
A) Getting started with my Blueangle on Wiki
----> Linked to the content of:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueangelFAQ
Yes you need to change the page name But keep the content.
B) Blueangel Exteneded Rom Kitchen
----> Linked to a blank page that I hope I can work on
C) List of know Blue angel, sold as, Model ID, Operator code etc
----> Linked to a blank page that I hope somebody will work on
D) List of Know Upgrades (Ship.exe)
----> Linked to a blank page that I hope somebody will work on
E) Wiki Development page
----> Linked to a page that has:
--------> Wiki Test Page please read and edit
--------> Wiki Test Page Please do not edit (add your name here)
--------> Wiki Test Page Please do not edit (MDAIIIUser)
My Spelling is poor on a good day, so if the link is spelled wrong just correct it.
3) Will somebody please look at the content of
"Getting started with my Blueangle on Wiki"
And correct it for spelling understanding ect.
This is what I have done sofar and as said above the link might change
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueangelFAQ
==============
Lets not get in each others hair!
So can Please each of us post what they are going to do on this site.
I will start:
MDAIIIUser Will work on the page Blueangel Exteneded Rom Kitchen and use his test page under devlopment for that.
Thanks for all the help so far
mmm, the aim of WiKi is that EVERYONE can update EVERY page.
so: Go ahead & Good Luck
I think it would be more appropriate to add those sections to the main Blueangel page
i think currently there are some links on the homepage that are too specific.
also some of the himalaya, and wallaby links should be moved to their phone pages.
then on the homepage more a general introduction, to what kind of information about what phones is available on this wiki.
I moved to Himalaya stuuf from the HomePage to the Himalaya page.
I also added a Sitemap link on the homepage, which could be useful
Mio4
First of thanks for doing a clean up!
Alas I fail to understand how to link a page form the Blueangel Home page
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
To the content of another page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueangelFAQ
When I go into edit of the Blueangel homepage, apart form getting lost, I get
* BlueangelFAQ
Which seems to be the name of the page that it is linked to.
That is all I see, that is all I can understand.
So my problem is that although I have created informtion that I would like to post I just don't know how to:
1) Open and name a page like BA_GettingStarted
2) Link that named page (BA_GettingStarted) from the blueangel home page over the wording
"Getting started with my Blueangle on Wiki"
so that the blueangle home page reads like this
BlueangelFAQ
Getting started with my Blueangle on Wiki
List of know Blue angel, sold as, Model ID, Operator code etc
List of Know Upgrades (Ship.exe)
Blueangel Exteneded Rom Kitchen
Given that info I would be able to add a few other pages without having to beg somebody to do it for me.
Would you please explain this so that I and others can also add infomation to Wiki.
Thanks
that is what a wiki does, make it really simple to link, and create new pages.
you create a link, just by typing the a pagename, with at least TwoLettersCapitalized, or, if your pagename does not have 2 capitalized letters, you can put it between [brackets] to make it a link.
when you type a pagename that does not yet exist, and view the saved page with your new link on it, you will see it with a questionmark next to it. if you click on the question mark, you go to the edit page of your new page.
so 'BlueangelFAQ' is automatically a link, in a wiki.
if you want to give the link a different description than the page name, you can write it like this:
[your description|LinkName]
that is, write between [brackets] your description, and the pagename separated with a vertical bar symbol.

Enjoy!
OK, I'm sure I'm just an idiot, but I followed the instructions in the "Getting started" section, since I have the Brightpoint version of the Qtek, not the Dangaard. But I couldn't get it to work, probably because I haven't got the correct password in the editfix.bat. Can anybody help me with that?
See this thread mate...: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=20770
Or read this thread, which will explain it also: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=20339
And uh, have you read wiki?
See my signature for link.
Hope that helps
Yes, I did read the Wiki. Didn't understand much of it, but I did read it...
And thanks for that thread, adding the line [CHECKCEID_TYPE]=1 made it start updating!With any luck it will work. But then again with my luck... :roll: :wink:
Change the boot picture
Hello,
Updated my Qtek9090 to this version but the only complain i have is that the boot picture after a reset is UGLY. :x
They put a text in the image
www-windowsmobile-no + Qtek support number.
Is there a way to change the picture ??
I could not find anything about this ?
Does anybody have the QTEK cloud picture without the text.
Could you upload this to the FTP ?
Thx for your time
I wasn't that lucky... It just was stuck on "getting device info". Now I've got a unit that switches between showing a grey screen with USB and a grey screen with SERIAL... The annoying thing is that I remember I had that problem on one of the official upgrades, but I can't remember what I did. I probably just left it without a battery over night, though. Oh, and when I tried to restart that upgrade I saw the country ID error again. So perhaps just adding that line to the cfg wasn't what you were trying to divert my attention to in that other thread. Or was it?
Restart your computer and try the upgrade again...usually works.
And no, that was not a diversion, why should we? :shock:
I should stop using long words with serveral meanings when I don't know all the meanings myself... I ment divert in the sense that you divert traffic - showing me the way to that other thread.
ER2003Edit
Could somebody upload ER2003Edit to the blueangel >> Tool folder.
I found away to change the splashscreen :lol: but you need the ER2003Edit software to edit the *.nbf files
Thank you !!
WoooHooo almost there
>> Doesn't work for the QTEK9090 --> Again The quest begins <<
when a new for imate ?¿?
regards
Gotcha. I'm going with the one on the forum's FTP. I assume that's the same one as the official one I downloaded from the windowsmobile.no site. Maybe I can get my at the moment rather expensive paper weight back from "USB SERIAL"...
I often get the USB/SERIAL problem. Best thing to do is just kill activesync via task manager. I think wcescomm.exe is the one. Then just re-run the upgrade. Should run through, but it won't have anything in the screen that tells the to and from version info for the 'from' info.
Cheers

Aaargh! To quote a certain young mr. Brown with a rather round head and a wacky dog: "Good grief!" I thought I was rather computer litterate having spent the last 20 years around them, but any old dog can learn new tricks, it seems...
Finally the upgrade of the main rom went nicely, and also the extended ROM, it was very much a by the numbers job as soon as I understood where to look. Kitchen? Man, I know we've got something called that in my house... Oh yes, that's the mysteriuos room where my wife goes into half an hour to one hour before dinner and then emerges again with the food! :roll: :wink:
Finally the radio ROM, and I'm good, I hope. It will be interesting to test this stuff and see how it works! Thanks for the help! I feel like a dangerous hacker now, so look out, Norway!
Re: New official ROM 1.40 from Dangaard
can somebody explain me where I can download rom 1.11?

No camera
Hi everybody,
I like the new 1.40 rom but even after trying some camera fixes off the wiki, My camera stills ("failed to initialize"). Any tips from anyone would be great!! :lol:
Ok, I've spent the entire day sifting through thread after thread of posts, and I am now throughly frustrated . Can someone put together the definitive authority of upgrading all of the various components of the Wizard? I find threads about ROMS, and Extended Roms, and Unlocking, but nothing in one place and very few actual files. I know it may be excessive, but when I upgraded my Wallaby to WM2003SE, it seemed so simple. With $600 invested in my new QTEK 9100 (and no provider to send it back to in case it locks up completely), I'd like a little hand holding through the process.
If someone could spend the time (which I would even contribute to financially) to explain, step by step, how to do the following in one topic, I would be in Wizard heaven: :lol:
Take a Qtek 9100, ROM Version 1.1.7.5, ROM Date: 9/22/05, Radio Version 01.01.10, Protocol Version: 4.0.13.16, ExtROM Version: 1.1.7.105 and:
(1) upddate each of those items;
(2) upload/link the necessary files/programs to accomplish this
(3) provide opinions of the various ROMs/ExtROMs; and
(4) list of tweaks and explaination of how to do them, as well as any programs needed to accomplish this.
I really would appreciate this, and speaking for those out there who get as equally lost/frustrated/scared/confused about doing this, I know others would as well.
TIA for anyone willing to take this task on! I hope for a speedy response as I would like to start personalizing this phone but don't want to have to do it again a week from now.

and there are the romz
and like every one else you have to try
if at first you dont succeed try try again
on the topic how to update the rom is an abundance of info on this site
dont be lazy find out yourself you will learn more every day
if you think a rom is dificult
try to instal tomtom and get the bluetooth gps mouse to work prop. thats the real challenge
Lists tweaks, but I could not find a "handbook" so to speak at this site. . . I need the meat of it.
trust me, I have not been lazy (my boss would have a cow if they knew how I wasted my day). I can't seem to access the FTP site. Do I need to have any special clearance?
http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/list_messages/1110642//
the only problem for you i think
ITS IN DUTCH
LOOK FOR THIS TEXT "De verschillende ROMs kun je hier vinden."
AND CLICK ON "hier" there you have the link to the ftp site
manual
Thanks Raylax!!
I also spent more time looking at the thread that has aWizard which was helpful and the FTP finally let me on. Is there a reason to install either the new radio or rom first?
OK, I have spent the last hour perusing various threads here trying to determine how to flash a new ROM. I know basic questions liek this are discouraged as people feel "the answers are out there". But, there are dozens (if not hundreds) of posts, all with confusing/contradictory information. I've learned enough to believe I understand the hard/soft SPL issues, but still have alot of questions.
Primary question: Is there a single place which is kept updated with a set of clear steps to update the ROM, including SPL, radio, ROM, and whatever else may be needed? Ideally this would be the most robust/reliable version of these things currently available.
Secondary questions are:
1. If I install a new ROM will I need to re-install of the current programs running on the phone (like SPB pocket plus, Garmin, HTC audio manager, etc)?
2. Should the ROM be flashed before the SPL, after, or it doesn't matter? (Seems llike the HardSPL would be needed first).
3. Is there a place to get the most recent/tested/reliable versions of the SPL, the ROM, and the Radio?
4. Is there a place to decribe the differences between the items in #3 above, and to make recommendations as to whcih to choose? (I simply need a reliable version which runs WM 6.1, and ideally which would allow configuration of the controls on the side of the Tilt - or even just disable all of them.)
Thanks.
1) yes
2) spl first, one time only.
3) Kaiser Rom section
4) I used q-mobile 1.2 b/c nothing was as fast and stable (mostly fast) as that wm 6 rom. If you have time, it is always best to experiment and find out which is best for you.
For further details and steps: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser#ROMx20.Upgrading
OK, a few more hours down the road -- I flashed the HardSPL (Kaiser-HardSPLv1.zip) with no problems. I found DUtty's Diamond ROM RUU Signed and have that ready to flash, but first ---- will this be OK on the Tilt? Will I need to fix the keyboard afterwards?

come on man, if you can't find these answers on this site, you might not be ready to flash roms.. there are literally 100s of posts and 95% of the time any question you have has already been answered, especially when you know the name of a program is "tilt keyboard fix" that you will need it to "fix your tilt keyboard"... and naming you thread "don't hate me" pretty much eliminates any future help this thread will be unless for some reason another noob searches for the word "don't" or "hate"... Don't be afraid to ask questions if you see that it's something that hasn't already been answered.
I'm obviously not ready to flash ROM's -- that is why I ask these questions - to get ready.
The fact that there are hundreds of posts is the problem.
If there is a post that answers my specific question, please point me to it:
"If I use the Duffy Diamond ROM, will I need to use the Tilt Keyboard fix"?
P.S. Spending your time to not answer the question is kindof a waste, right? If you don't want to answer, go do something more productive.

** This is NOT intended as a flame **
Look, here's the deal... Everybody understands that there are hundreds of dead-end/useless threads that exist in the Kaiser sections (thousands when you count the rest of the site).
The unfortunate fact of the matter is that until junior members learn to start searching for the answer to their question before creating new threads, the search function built-in to the site will continue to be polluted with conflicting information.
This site is not designed for people who are not willing to do any work for themselves. You do NOT appear to be one of these people since you have done some reading.
So in closing,
Read the Kaiser Wiki, read the "**BEFORE YOU POST START HERE** FAQ, Wiki, Stickies & Tutorials - Suggestions Welcome!" thread, and most importantly, once you are ready to flash your first ROM, read the entire thread for the ROM before downloading and flashing.
That last part can be daunting for Dutty's ROMs since they are arguably the most popular on the site, but it is a necessity.
Thanks to those with useful answers, I was able to get everything working.
To Dutty, I need to apologize as my older eyes interpreted the screen as Duffy. I have learned now, and I appreciate your work in providing the ROM's.
Believe me, I spent alot of time (all day today actually) reading through stuff. The simple fact is there is too much stuff, it is too scattered, and there are several possible starting points.
For future reference, the best single reference point (for me anyway) was:

Hi lads i have big problem with my phone i have there any fcking trial version of any program a when the license is gone i have just white screen and i cant do anything....all text is: This concludes the beta test of this software release.Thank u very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers.
To obtain a newer release or further information,please revisit the web site that you used to obtain your current beta release....
Do u have any ideas how i can fix it up ...PLS
Have u tried going to:
Start > Settings > "System" tab > Remove Programs ... ?
that's one of the most non-sensical posts I have ever read.
Really, you might want to consider taking a deep breath and providing some relevant information.
Then we might be able to understand the issue and offer help.
Ok guys, be nice, I think it's a ROM issue, Check which ROM you loaded and go to that thread.
I think I remember reading this on a ROM thread on PPC Geeks a couple of days ago.
R:1.00.25.05
G:52.29.25.12H

Letting this thread open for that spelling mistake Else it would had been bansville on grounds of profanity in the forum
The error you are seing is not of any program but of the ROM. The ROM that you flashed has a time bomb. Past the time and *poof* gone, go into re flash or choose another update from the developer
next time post your concerns in details so others can be of great help around here. With half the info people start flaming each other and get banned from here
