Unable to update or change Roms

Hi, im currently using a UK t-mobile rom supplied with my phone
ipl 2.21.0001
spl 2.21.0001
gsm 02.19.11
os 2.21.2.6
i have managed to sim unlock my device quite easily but changing (ideally to the imate rom) or even trying to downgrade to a v1 ipl/spl is proving impossible so far can anyone give any advice on what method i can follow to switch over to the better i-mate kjam rom?
I have tried using lokiwiz v2b and v3 with no success

You have a G4. To my knowledge on http://www.imei-check.com can unlock it ... for a fee....
Other than that check out risidoro's thread at [How-To] Install any 2.x ROM in a CID-Locked G3 or G4 Wizard

ok thanks for the reply! i think ill wait and see if free but unrisky method is discovered

Wizard IPL/SPL

Hi,
i am very new to all this stuff on wizard upgrading and have tried to do alot of reading....
The was something on G3 and G4 that determines the which one i have from the IPL/SPL...
MDA Vario - T-Mobile UK
IPL - 1.06
SPL - 1.06
GSM - 1.12.10
OS - 1.6.2.4
these are the details of my phone...
can someone tell me what upgrades i can use for this fone?
thank you VERY much.

Looks like you can use basically anything. Just CID unlock using the LokiWiz or aWizard utilities on the FTP and make sure to keep your IPL/SPL somewhat near your other versions. I'd reccomend, CID unlocking and upgrading to the latest version of a "stock" ROM like the T-Mobile 2.26 here http://www.t-mobileapps.com/downloadcenter/software_detail.cfm?id=80 and then play around with other ROMs. At least then you have a backup ROM to go back to.

thanks mate... appreciate it..
just gonna try it now.

New 9100 owner IPL, SPL, AKU questions

Hey, I am the new owner of a Qtek 9100 purchased from ebay. This is an actual Qtek device, not a branded T-mobile, or Cingular version. This 9100 should be completely unlocked correct? It was advertised as such on ebay. Is there any way to verify its lock/unlock status?
I have been reading about firmware upgrading and beleve my 9100 is a G4 device. My version info at bootup is as follows
IPL: 2.17.0001
SPL: 2.17.0001
GSM: 02.02.10
OS: 2.17.7.2
I know the IPL/SPL are bootloaders. Since this should be an unlocked device do i still have the same G4 IPL/SPL concerns with flashing the firmware that i have been reading about in various threads. Can you point me to some threads with more info about the IPL/SPL? When i do a search for these terms, nothing comes up.
From what i gather the AKU has something to do with the version of the OS. What diffrent AKU versions are available, is there a table or list somewhere with the differences betwen versions? As with trying to search for IPL SPL info, searching for AKU turns up nothing.
Thanks,
Doug

Doug - I did and have exactly the same as you..... Bought a QTEK 9100 on eBay. Mine arrived with 1.x IPL/SPL/ROM (I can't remember specifically which version it was). I quickly updated this using the official update that is linked via the expansys.co.uk website to the same version you are running (2.17 WWE).
After a day or so I found the xda-developers forum and downloaded some of the 'cooked' ROMs that take it to the current 2.26 version. I however had a problem installing the RISidoro ROM and I assumed my QTEK 9100 was completely unlocked - it wasn't. It was Network Unlocked but not CID unlocked; I couldn't install the RISidoro ROM until I CID unlocked it using the Lokiwiz tool. I could install the MRClean 2.24 ROM but not RISidoro's 2.26.
Have a read through the RISodoro ROM thread for info on how to CID unlock you 9100 - it seems G3 versions are easy to CID unlock but not G4 versions, I was lucky enough to have a G3.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276700
I am still trying to understand the AKU 2.3 & 3.2 thing but I think this is a Windows Mobile version thing. Hopefully someone will post specific details of what the AKU is......

OK, I read through that thread, and didn't really give a good answer to CID unlocking a G4. I keep seeing people talking about unlocking the G4. I saw a few posts with people confirming the steps to unlock a G4 but they never got any kind of response if they were right. That thread almost seems like a mess of suggestions for both G3 and G4 and you can easilly get lost not knowing if someone is talking about a G3 or G4 in their response.
Is there any kind of utility that can be run on the PC with the 9100 connected to verify the CID lock status, or a utility to run on the 9100 itself?
If i am CID locked. Are there any EXACT step by step directions for unlocking the G4. I dont want to brick it.

first,plz always post full data of your phone,although you have posted the Device info,but you have not posted the actual data IPL/SPL...? of your phone,which determines the DOC chip of your phone,so post the IPL/SPL...?
As you say that you are using wm5,it must be T-Mobile official Rom,which come pre-installed on the phone,therefore your phone is SIM/CID locked.
In order to upgrade to a newer and latest wm6 Rom,it's necessary to first SIM/CID unlock your phone.
Since you say that you have a G3 device,then to read and understand how to unlock a G3 with IPL/SPL 1.xx(AKU 1) device,check the below link:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
But if you have a G3 device with IPL/SPL 2.xx(AKU 2) than read this thread:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=263116
Fully read and understand these guides and first SIM/CID unlock your phone.
Yes,here's this wonderfull tool by mestrini to check the CID lock.unlock present status of your.Download WST Tool from the below link :-

First of all you'll have to CID unlock your phone to upgrade to any latest wm6 roms.Read and fully understand the guide and procedure of CID unlocking in the thread which I already gave you in the above post already,you'll find there all the instructions and lokiwiz02b unlocking tool download and all the Roms (Button's Rom 1.05 and T-mobile 2.26) download links,which are required to cid unlock your device.Only after Cid unlock you'll be able to upgrade to any wm6 Rom.
But if you like to have the wm5 rom,which already installed on your device then there's no need to unlock and upgrade to another wm5 rom,as you already got one.but if you want to upgrade to wm6 rom than I'm afraid you'll have to cid unlock the device and upgrade.Once again I'm posting the link for the guide to unlocking:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
I repeat,only after cid unlock you can upgrade,how to flash a rom follow this guide:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310831
you can find all the latest wm6 custom build Roms here in this thread :-

good luck
Well! as i see your phone has an IPL 1.08 and SPL 2.26,and it's required to downgrade to IPL/SPL 1.xx,therefore as you already have IPL 1.08,I think you shudn't have to flash Button's Rom 1.05 to downgrade to IPL 1.xx, you can download lokiwiz02b and try to cid unlock,it may be successful, but as it shows SPL 2.26,it may not be successful as both IPL/SPL 1.xx are required,but if it doesn't cid unlock with IPL/SPL 2.26 at first attempt,than you'll have to Flash Button's Rom 1.05 to downgrade to both IPL'SPL 1.xx

Does that mean that ive got a G4 and do i need to unlock the CID
After it is complete, your device will automatically reboot. The IPL version will be 2.21.0001 and the SPL will be 2.21.olip. If you see this then HardSPL was successfully flashed to your device.

Seems to be a G3 that wasn't correctly updated, since the IPL and SPL don't match.

Thank you
where can I find explanation of the update

Sorry I got your personal message but didn't recognize you. Later I remembered that it was this thread. Look at this thread for a tutorial on how to upgrade. I believe that you have a G3, but the IPL and SPL versions do not match. When you finish the tutorial, both IPL and SPL should be 3.08 (or 3.09, but mine is 3.08).
Good luck. If you have any other questions, please ask.
For ROMs, search the 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development forum. My favorites are in my signature.

I have read The Definitive Guide to Unlocking & Rom Upgrading G3 Wizards
but the link for (T-Mobile 2.26 rom)is dead ...where can I download it??
i have download another rom but the version is T-Mobile 2.6 and not
T-Mobile 2.26
can i use it without problems??
thank you for your help and your patience

You can still download the official T-Mobile ROMs from their website, as long as you are a current T-Mobile customer, or at least know a telephone number of a current T-Mobile customer.
Currently, the link is:
http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm23294.xml?&A2L.SERVICE=UpdateSoftware
And the filename is:
MDA_software_update_226102_22610105_022511.exe

I found the download link here
(T-Mobile 2.26 rom)
rapidshare.com/files/37669086
/MDA_software_update_226102_22610105_022511.exe
I will try to update my device
