Upgrading question - Newbie - soz ! - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi
I've spent several hours reading through the threads on here - jez there's alot of information
I wondered if anyone can point me in the right direction on this
I bought mine from Expansys - shipped with vers 1.34
I've tried downloading the version on the HTC UK site and when asked to put the s/n in - i get the following error from their site
"Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
Can anyone point me in the right direction for upgrading ?

I advise you two to do an exhaustive search as there are several threads pointing to official ROM links. What you're doing here is creating unnecessary threads and making search harder for yourselves and others...
I did.
but, never mind. case closed.

That's why i'm asking

Apologies mestrini for cluttering up the board but I have searched long and hard for an official Qtek ROM ...googled, searched rapidshare but alas it appears from your comment that I'm missing it. I have also tried joining the myqtek forum but when I enter my IMEI it says it is not from Brightstore so again I can't get at the ROM's.
If you would be so kind as to send me a PM I promise to go away and leave you all be!
hehe, i don't want you to go away

no problem. i just hope you understand that, as a Senior Member (cough cough), i must help but also flame you guys a little
What i'd like you to do is to change the title of your first post so that it lets others know that there's a link to the file

Feel free to change the title Mestrini ...if it helps others find what they're looking for then I say all the better. finding what you're looking for is directly related to the keywords you search on and sometimes you just go round in circles before you find things ...or worse still you fail to find anything at all.
...again many thanks!
BTW: I tried that file last night and it won't let me use it because it says I'm already at a higher level ...i.e. 2.26 IPL & SPL. I need to downgrade so that's my next search criteria.

CID Unlocked my G4: Now What?!

Hola everyone: so I plunged in and spent my 20quid for CID unlocking (www.imei-check.co.uk) my g4 o2 xda mini-s this morning, and that completed OK.. question is - now what?
I've got the o2 software on it at the moment (so can't GPRS properly with it) so wanted to switch the software. What's the best rom - where do i find it - and how do i load it!?
..
there's way "too much" information flying around on this site sometimes it's mind-blowing..
now that i've CID Unlocked it; can i just put on the TNT wm6 ROM??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341550
You could have unlocked it yourself for free on this forum - I unlocked mine using info from this forum.
I'm running XM6r4 at the moment and liking it - see this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=346478
Although I believe r5 is out now:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1759543
ah well. but now that's done i can just go and install any of those things without further faffing?!
I think so - but then I'm a newbie so perhaps a more experienced member can help you out
like i said. WAY TOO much info on here sometimes. i like it fast and hard. i stole christmas.
ok off to 'ave a go at a new rom. though i should get caffeine first. cheers for replying
GRRR: Tried to run the rom update tool and keep getting error 300?! Invalid ROM image or something?!
You said you liked it fast and hard... what do you expect?
Where do you guys come from?...
Like you said, there is a lot of information on the forums. Its there for some reason! Use the search functionality of the forum and you shall find precise answers for your questions.
mebbe i should write a 'UK o2 XDA mini-s' upgrading wiki
all done now - found a link for the error 300 and got wm6 on OK
of course still can't browse the web - but i think this is an o2 PAYG 'feature'

You should!! I've tried it tonight and got stuck at the preloader screen - waiting for feedback on how to proceed [got a black linux screen rather than a white one as detailed in the crib sheet so didn't do the hard spl rom update - banged out instead]
What's your prob with web browsing - I have the Mini S on o2 and can access web via GPRS [at huge cost, mind you].

Going from Branded ATT WM5 to Unbranded WM6

Hey guys, I was looking for some sort of tutorial for something.
I was trying to find something that explains how to go from the a Branded AT&T Treo 750 with AT&T Windows Mobile 5 (version 1.13) to the Unbranded Windows Mobile 6.
Does anyone know how to do this or know somewhere which explains it?
It's my brothers phone, I have an AT&T Tilt, so I'm not too experienced with the Palm stuff.
He said that when he tried to run the exe file for an unbranded update it gave him some sort of error.
Anyway, how do I go about switching from Branded to Unbranded WM6?
And what features does which update have? Like which one is the best?
I appreciate any help guys.
Thanks.
Try searching a little before asking. There are thousands of posts to look through, the answer is probably already there..............
Why do you want an unbranded version? I recommend using the official ATT version and then customize the CapPackage.PXP to desired taste. At the end of the day the WM6 is WM6 is WM6 (per se).
And yes, you will need to do some digging - you'll learn much more about your device and how it works (the point of this forum). You'll note in your search that a lot of trial and error and collaboration goes into figuring things out. Once you have done your research, have attempted the upgrade and run into trouble or have a specific question (as opposed to a request for upgrade 101), we're here to help
Cheers!

I'm well aware of that, but the purpose of my post was to see if someone could point me in the right direction.
I've found multiple install files to download but haven't found instructions nor if they're the right install files.
Please keep in mind I've been looking for this for a few weeks now.
Anyway, anyone know anything about this?
Edit: Heh, I just posted right after you without seeing your post.
Anyway, my brother said he wanted the unbranded version for the tethering option or something. He said that the ATT version wasn't tethering properly.
I have the official ATT version with no problems via usb or bluetooth. Give it a shot and if it doesn't work go for the generic version (see sticky in this forum).
Check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361518
I answered this, it's the third post. This method will work with any Treo 750 (Cingular, AT&T, etc.). Since then I have upgraded to 2.27 and it is working fine.

Kaiser new user - Merged 3 Questions...

hi all just a quick post i have just signed up on the HTC site when i type in my S/N number it is saying that there is no such S/N ihave tried to ring orange but they dont know what iam trying to do i just want to know if there is going to be a free upgrade to the phone to windows mobile 6.1 if not is there any other way of getting the update
any help would be great thanks in advance
Official versions of WM6.1 have not shipped yet. If you want an unofficial version, start with the stickies and the wiki found in my sig, to learn how to flash ROMs found in the development section.
If you have any additional questions, you should try to post in an existing thread.
Have fun!
FWIW, my ROMs are not 6.1
Make sure you don't use any of the ROM's with the name Alex in it. They don't have 3D video drivers. HEHE
Just kidding, none of them do.
Kaiser new user - How do I put a ROM on my phone?
hi again sorry to be a pest what do i need to put a new rom on my phone or is it just download and install ?
Hi,
To start with click on the Gettings Started link in my Sig and read, all the information is there in verbose form.
But in short:
First you need to install HardSPL, this allows your phone to be flashed with a new ROM without it been bricked.
Once that is installed you can select and Flash your new ROM.
If the ROM you flash does not include a Radio then you may need to install a compatable radio. Click on the radios link in my sig and install a version to match your Windows Mobile Version.
If you have any problems with this post your problem in the relevant thread (all the threads are in the Getting Started Link in my sig).
Happy flashing.
Thanks
Dave

read before u post
Just as a matter of interest, why do you think you need a new Rom on your phone? Or, how do you even know that new Roms are available?
You've obviously read far enough to realise that the new Roms are both available and better, so why not read a bit more and answer your question yourself...
Step one: Read
Step two: ???
Step three: PROFIT!!

Why don't you contact your provider or HTC?
@Mike C., Sorry merged the three threads... (EDIT by Mike - no need for apology I agree with you)
@OP (Original Poster), accept this a a little advice and a gentle nudge in the right direction.
