Tomtom Nav 5 prob with loadin on qtek 9100

Hi
Brand new QTEK9100 and trying to load tomtom5 - inserting the mini sd programme boots up and gives initial install screen for a second or so then disapears - nothing else happens - what am i doing wrong ?
thanks
Search the forum, there are (already far too) many topics about TT5 on the Wizard.
Frenchie, It's sad that people like Molski, who started on this forum with same problems as you have and I had, can answer in this "clever" way.
I finally got my Qtek running with TT5.
It would be good to upgrade your Wizard to a aku 2.+. Use one of the ROMs on the ftp, first unlock your SIM using Awizard (also available on the xda ftp).
Go to the TOMTOM site and download the update 5.21.
Pair your BT on com 7 before installing TT5. Start the TT5 update and install.
What did it for me was to switch of my BT and to switch it on at the same time as starting TT5 the first time, then go to settings, other BT and choose com 7. Now it should start and work.

I also asked a lot of stuff...but NOT questions that are asked a 1000 times already like "how do I upgrade my Rom" or "how do I install TT5", because the answers to all this questions are given many many times on this forum!
The search page is really one of my favourite pages of this forum.
It's SAD to see that new members are asking questions (that are asked about 5-10 times a week) without even take one look at the search page.
Regards,
Molski.

First, you must CID unlock your phone if you want to use either a custom Rom or a Rom from another carrier. SIM unlock only allows you to use another carrier's SIM in your phone. Search for "CID Unlock" you'll find what you need to know.
Second, it is sad when you come here feeling entitled to have others who have taken the time and effort to read these great forums just answer every single question time and time again. I guess you think you're special because none of your friends have a Wizard and you want to show them how cool you can make it but don't want to do the work?
Having a Wizard doesn't make anyone special here. In fact most of us have owned more than 1 Windows Mobile phone. Personally I started with Nokia Smartphones running Symbian and graduated to Windows Mobile 2003. Then I moved up to Windows Mobile 2005.
I was a newbie once but I didn't just come in ask ask with reckless abandon. I spent time reading the forums. It's amazing how well things will work for you if you actually take the time to search and read-up on this great little device.
There is a wealth of information here and you will get all of the help you could ever want if you will just put in a little effort.
It's a forum, meaning you can ask, ask, ask............
I did and will.
@Vilem
Never read THIS:
1. Check if something hasn't been asked before
Some questions just keep popping up over and over. Please use the 'search' function in the menu above each and every page in the forum. Try entering a few keywords to see if your question has been asked before. If it has, please read the topics and see if you can figure it our from there.
(We acknowledge that part of the problem is that we never created a well-organized system of FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) documents. But then we're doing lots of cutting-edge stuff, and we'd rather build cool tools than work on perfecting FAQs.)
It belongs to the STICKY "Please read this before posting", but I taka a wild guess that you never read this!

Yes I did, and I also tried all remarks/suggestions on the forum, which in my case didn't work. So I re-issued my question and never ever received a comment or answer back.
It can happen, as in my case, that people have problems which are not mentioned earlier. Even you could have something like that, then it would be helpfull if there are people who would help.
Molski, see

Okay, thats true, but that does NOT mean that you can ask, ask, ask about everything pal
Oh I didnt know you could ask about everything but now i know here goes.
I'm trying to get a new business plan down on paper and every morning when i start i move onto something else like thread hopping. is there a cure to this problem and do i need a firmware upgrade?
bhayani
ps did a search bit no luck. Not all answers are on there, BUT most are.
this thread could easily be put to bed right now as long as noone replies to it.
tempting...............
O.k I'll stop.

Another stuck in bootloader

Don't be too harsh, I'm a noob here.
First of all: I've purchased SPV m700 with instructions how to unlock it. During flashing something went wrong, the PC reset etc. Now I've got nice three colour screen on my PDA and cannot do anything, even turn it on or off. I suppose it cleaned the old ROM and did not manage to write a new one.
I've read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308691
and TBH cannot understand a thing from it
Is there any straightforward way I can unbrick it? You know, something that a guy without a vast programing experience could manage to do? Cheers in advance good people!
OK, thanks guys for great support and warm welcome...NOT.
No, I won't start crying here, just hope I'll meet one of you uberman 'experts' from this forum on one of the forums I'm an expert on and will be able to recognize you. Best wishes.
Anyway, just for the record of other newbees who struggle to get any answers: I managed to unbrick my SPV M700. I had no idea what I was doing, neither will you I guess, do not come to me crying if it doesn't work or if it makes your device a real, solid brick. It may work only for Orange SPV, no clue as to HTC P3600, Trinity or others.
I ran the thing from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=309959
It failed to finish running, showed 'error[270] invalid image' or something similar...
But the device was back to normal again So I'm one happy bunny.
Hopefully it will give others ideas on how to deal with their problems. Good luck to you all. I'm off.
Dont let this little incident put you off upgrading to WM6, just read the threads thoroughly first, then FLASH!
im on UK M700 with Mun_Rus 2.00.SE WM6 ROM

What I worry about is loosing warranty (although I'm not sure if I've got one at all - beware of Ebay seller id1emind!!!). Well, TBH I do worry about bricking it again too...

Sim Unlock for HTC P4350 (Herald)

Hi All,
I live in Egypt and i got my herald from Mobinil , it was working with windows mobile 5 and was unlocked for all networks.
Then i upgraded it with the HTC windows mobile 6 official rom and now its only unlocked for mobinil!!! when i inserted my vodafone sim it said enter network code!! i tried other roms from here but its still locked!!
any suggestions??
Thanks.
PEOPLE ....
PLEASE read & search through the forums before posting the same questions OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER again....
this has been asked a million times ... and about 5 times in the past 2 days in here.
Look at what a search that took me a whole 2 seconds to run shows:
Help me in unlocking T-Mobile HTC Wing / P4350 (Herald)
help me to unlock the rom for htc p4350
Sim Unlock My Wing
Sim Unlock
imei-check unlocking
I am always the first to help people on here ... you can ask anyone that ... but quite frankly, I've personally answered that question like 5 times in the past 2 days... It's a little ridiculous that everyone expect us to spoon feed you all the information, when its in here ... all you have to do is READ!
You could've just answered instead of writing this article!!! and by the way i did read all those previous posts but none of them apply to my situation...mine was unlocked first then got locked!! unlike all the other posts which were locked to begin with.
anyway thanks...Anyone got some helpful answers??
Like Duprade said in the previous article, READ. Good lord man, it doesnt matter if yours was locked before, it is now! Which means the artciles he posted would apply to your situation. RTFM

[UK]Diamond unlocking

Hi there guys, I got a Diamound on Orange for the UK. I was wondering if you could post a link for the unlocking tools.
The link for the "Hard SPL by Diamond Olinex" in post "[REF]HTC Diamond Resources and utilities" does not seem to work.
Cheers
i suggest u read a bit more first
Hard SPL does work, but it wont unlock your phone.
READ THE WIKI!
I too had an Orange UK phone but needed to cross over to Voda and had both Sims for a while - Unlocking was the only sensible option.
ALL the information is in these forums if you dig around a bit.
There's quite a few stages to this procedure and I found it a bit fiddly but it DOES work.
Keep searching on this excellent forum. All will be revealed.
Just looks thru the wiki and found 2 unlock things, they both cost £££??? :S Aint there a free software unlocker?
