Help Needed! - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

I have upgraded my Qtek 9090 to WM6. After that I also upgraded the radio to 1.15.
But when I removed the battery to insert the SIM card the bootloader didn't show the R 1.15.
The radio as I presume was loaded on the nonpersistant memory for some reason. I asume this because the backup battery of the device was drained at that time.
My question is how can I install the radio to the persistant memory of the ppc?
PS. The method I used to upgrade the radio was the second one from the wiki instructions.

ROM 2.24 upgrade problem with 8125

very weird :shock: ...had no problems upgrading my mda....but whilst trying to upgrade an 8125, i ran into problems with insufficient memory.
the 8125 is completely unlocked..both sim and cid....then attempted to activesync the 2.24 rom, but low and behold....it wouldn't resolve!! PC said to check that there's sufficient memory, etc. So, I checked the memory on the 8125..and it says there's only 46MB in storage...and the 2.24 ROM itself is 52.6MB.
So my question is....is there an alternative way to load the 2.24 ROM on the phone...or does anyone out there have any other suggestions?
Thanx in advance for your help.... :wink:

Upgraded to WM5 ROM, 1.15.00 radio doesn't work?

Hi,
I upgraded a Cingular SX66 unit using maupgradeut_noid and the latest AKU 3.5.2 WM5 ROM. Afterward, I had no radio ROM so I updated to the 1.15.00 release. However, my phone is still unable to make/receive calls or data (with multiple good SIMs.) It appears the radio ROM is having issues with this WM5 package because sometimes on hard restarts the boot screen lists R: and G: as NONE, but after a soft reboot they usually show the correct versions.
I searched and can't find any postings about this type of behavior. Nothing useful to report from the phone other than it says "phone is not ready" and "no service" with a good SIM.
I have several of these PDAs that I want to distribute to my internal staff with WM5 so they don't have to learn WM2003 (all of our other devices are WM5 or WM6.) Any recommendations on a procedure to test the radio ROM or a different combination of OS and radio ROMs?
Thanks for the help.
PS. running getdevicedata.exe yields the following:
PH20B1 WWE A %CID? 5.35.05. 1.15.00 % 4
downgrade to wm2003 and try to flash again radio 1.15 and post the results

Take it easy
all BA HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS YOU DESRIBLE
IF YOU USE WM2003 THE PROBLEM WILL DISAPPEAR~ SO,JUST SOFT RESET
YOUR PHONE EVERY TIME YOU CHANGE YOUR BETTERY!!
just one softreset, and when you need to charge, charge it when it reaches the 40%, etc, just don't take out the battery, or you will have to softreset it again for the radio work.
it is just the same with mine sx66, and i don't care at all.
Thanks for the notes...I kind of learned the soft reset 'fix' on my own, a little disappointing but I guess we're stuck with it. Why would I want to downgrade my phone to 2003? The whole point was to move to WM5 so my users and support team all work with the same interface.
Of course...my next project is to find out why SMSplus works on 8525 phones and not 8125 (standard Cingular OS load.) Might have to upgrade the 8125s to WM6 (sigh)

Is my phone already dead? Please help me!
Hi, I have a similar may be the same problem!
My phone is a German t-mobile mda compact 2
First I work with “lokiwiz v.02” to unlock the SIM, and it works really well.
Then I installed “Charmer_Touch_ver._2.1” and I could calibrate the screen, and after that Win Mobile 6 installed all the extra stuff automatically. After that the device made a reboot, but it stop at the t-mobile boot screen.
Because the bootload modus is still running, I installed the newest original t-mobile software “RUU_compactII_AKU3.3_38222_382117_026921R_TMO_DE_GER_Ship” but this also didn’t solve the problem.
Hard reset didn't work and always says "Format is
The Start screen shows me this information:
IPL 3.08
SPL 3.08.0000
GSM 02.69.21
OS 3.8.2.22
Is my phone really dead or could someone tell me a trick to reactivate it?
I think noone have a solution for us. I tried to send commands to phone whith mtty. and I can´t send. I don´t know why. so f we cannot send commands the sd card method will not work too. the only olution is to jtag the charmer. but can´t find any pinout information. if anyone knows this informtion, please help.

Cry for help - missing radio rom

Hi everyone.. First post and I think this is a great site. I've managed to flash a wm6 rom to my Orange SPV m700, and although it worked great for a while, I decided to flash my radio rom (initially 1.16.00.00) to 1.50.08.11 not a great idea it would seem, as after a successfull (so it seemed) flash and a reboot, the I now appear to be missing both a radio rom and a gps rom!?!
Can anyone help? I've tried flashing back to a 'orangeuk' WM5 backup (created by someone on this this forum) and I'm having no luck what so ever. The downgrade to WM5 stalls at 82%. My gut suspicion is that it's failing at the radio rom, and I can (sort of) prove this when trying to flash the radio rom - it fails at 0%
PLEASE HELP
Update on this.
Downgraded from 1.30 Hard SPL to 1.20, tried flashing Radio Rom, again no joy. Have also attempted upgrade from SD card - again no joy.
Anyone?, Anyone?... Bueller?.. Anyone?
Just to add, there's no Radio/GPS or IMEI number.. I've seen other people with the same problem but no 'real' guide to fixing..
Just tried (on a whim) to downgrade the radio software down to to 1.16.00.00 using the SD card (basically trying to use Pof's unlocker radio rom) but still no joy, using the SD card just get's about 10% of the way along the progress bar and stops..
I'm struggling here folks

Solution to flash ROM from memory card

I need to remote troubleshoot a friend. He put a wrong ROM, i think, and now OS is moving very slowly, does not have GSM, WiFi and neither can connect USB to a Windows 7. Bluetooth works.
Qtek 9100 G3
The boot is:
IPL 1.01
SPL 2.17
OS 1.5.4.2
(no radio)
I do not know if the USB problem is related to ROM or is a communication problem / driver with Win7.
What am I after, and here I need your advice, if is possible to do a ROM flash from the memory card?
Also ANY suggestion is more than welcome.
