hi,
im very new with smartphones, actually its my first one (upgraded from samsung d600) i must state that before opening a new topic i did some search and wasnt able to get a clear view of how to do things...well that why im asking here for little guidance from fellow users with much more experience with this device...
well my main problem is that i have buy the device over the net and its in german language...after going thru forums i understand that can be fixed by updating it with an english rom, so i did register myself on qtek website got the latest wwe rom, thn i have notice that people have suggest to use the "Lokiwiz02b" unlocking tool before doing the update, my question is after i used the "Lokiwiz02b" tool how will i know that my device is unlocked? its already sim lock free...if its possible someone could layout a step by step guide? coz i dont want to end up with a dead qtek 9100...
my second question is that do i need to have a firewall and antivirus on the device? is it important ? if yes then which one ?
well in the end i would also like to add that its a great forum but i would have liked to see a "pinned" post for the first time users explaining step by step how to update the rom on there device...would have answered a lot of questions automatically...
thanks,

Guide is in the lokiwiz thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33796
For other roms the CID unlock is important not the sim(un)lock!
there ist never a warranty for devices, all you do is at your own risk!
And i don't think AV and Firewall are necessary.

thanks but i had that thread in the fav. list...well it seems there is a way to do the unlock thing on newer version of qtek, get an older rom install it and then unlock n update to latest rom...what is still not clear is how to update rom...i like the way "lokiwiz" explains all in clear n simple way...can some'1 just put up step by step instrusctions on that rom update too? would be nice!
well here is what i have understand from reading a lot of threads on this forum:
ROM i plan to update to: 186504-ruu_9100_2170702_21707102_20710_qtek_wwe_ship
1) use "lokiwiz" as described in above theard
2) i plug the device in to USB and let ActiveSync to start (making sure i have more then 50% of batt. life on device)
3) then i run the executeable ROM upgrader from my pc
4) after the ROM is installed, the device will reboot
and thats its right? please correct me if im wrong.
one more thing that is unclear to me is what are the other things like "Radio, Protocol, Ext. ROM, GSM" etc ? are these all updated with the ROM update?
thanks,
i||uSi0n^
i-mate and qtek ROM's
Just to add my two cents to this. I have tried both the qtek and the i-mate 2.x roms and find that the i-mate one is less problematic.
Also, after much forum reading, it seems that people are having more issues with the qtek rom then the i-mate.
Just something to keep in mind.

There is already a thread on this, but I'm starting a new one as I feel the old one has deviated from its purpose of finding a workaround for the P3600i
For those of you who have not been following...
The current SSPL, Hard-SPL, Super CID methods used to bypass Trinity
(P3600) SPL do not work on the new HTC P3600i.
Here's the reason why:
pof said:
The P3600i has 256MB NAND in oposite of the 128 Mb NAND of the regular P3600.
To flash this device you need bootloader 3.x or higher, and OS rom must be tagged 0x401 in the NBH (not 0x400, which is used for 128Mb NAND), also you should use a new RUU (the on the official WM6 rom should be ok).

It was recommended that Olipro be contacted about this, so I did and this is what he had to say.
[/QUOTE]
What that means is that firstly; you need one of the newer SPL versions; send me one and I'll patch it.
secondly; you need to dump your OS from the NBH and then rebuild it using 401 as the code for it (default is 400)
Obviously you could also crack the NBH open in a hex editor and just change the value, your choice entirely.[/QUOTE]
I'm don't have the technical expertise at present to do the above & am kinda pressed for time to learn so I'm hoping someone will be able to help.
Does anyone have the Newest SPL version extracted that they can post?
Can anyone suggest a hex editor to change value to 401 & explain exactly how this is done. I tried using a random hex editor and was confused by the max of hex before my eyes, I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be changing.
Thanks
i'm using htc 3600i too , waiting for success flashing and cooking rom for it.
Surely someone has extracted the SPL-3.03.0000 boot loader.
Please if anyone has it, can you post.
I saw it posted before, but neglected to DL it cause i thought I'd never need it.
I've searched through 40+ pages and have not been able to find. I probably just keep keep missing the page it's on...the search is not the greatest.
I would be forever grateful to the kind soul who would take the time to help a brother out...
After all, "there comes at time, when we all need..."
Here is SPL 3.03.0000 from this official ROM "RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.00.707.18_6275_1.46.30.11_108_Ship.exe" (which I believe is the ANZ release).
I managed to upgrade my P3600i from this version which was on the phone when I bough it "RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.00.707.17_6275_1.46.00.11_108_Ship.exe" (which I believe is the SEA release).
i'm waiting for this solution..

We need a patched version of the SPL 3.003... Olipro agreed to do so and I've sent him a PM. Still waiting to hear back.
Secondly we need to dump the ROM from the NBH and rebuild it using 401 as the code (the default is 400)
Or you could:
Crack the NBH open in a hex editor and just change the value, your choice entirely.
I'm don't have the technical expertise at present to do the above & am hoping someone will dump the rom then rebuild as mentioned above or post a tutorial on using a hex editior to change the value.

Do you get answer from Olipro? I'm sure many people's here are waiting (yes incld me
No word yet. Still waiting
waiting for solution. hope we can play with 3600i soon
Ok. So I'm confused as there are some contradictions. Is it possible for a cht 9110, purchased in Taiwan, to be flashed to an English version using the HTC official website download? Or is that why everybody is waiting for an unlock/flash method?
I can maybe live without any of the real nice rom tweaks that get developed here for at least a little while but I'm not sure how far I can get using the default Traditional Chinese as I'm not a native speaker. The cht 9110 is being offered in Taiwan at a much cheaper price than elsewhere which is one reason I don't want to have one shipped in with the factory English rom already installed. Thanks in advance for any clarification.
p.s. I should probably mention that I have not purchased one yet which is one reason why I can't answer this question myself. Thanks again!
p.p.s. The lady at ChungHwa Telecom said they were sold out all around Taiwan. They'll call me back in two weeks when they get more in from HTC.
I think it is possible to flash the offical englsh rom in the cht9110
as people said they can flash the official ROM into the P3600i
just can't use those cooked roms here

No no, I'm using CHT9110 from Taiwan with Chineas rom. and I try to flash with Official WWE rom, it will give you error of Invalid ID.
Sorry..the corrected error message is " Invalid Vendor ID"
Any news from Olipro?
keen to try out the roms in development here as well.
I have a CHT9110 and I have just failed to upgrade it with Official English ROM downloaded from Dopod's website....need to convert Traditional Chinese Version to WWE version.....
Me too. Can you please share the official WWE Rom, I can't download it. Is this the "Wrong device ID" issue ?
OK guys, I'll sort this all out for you.
Firstly I need a volunteer (capeli perhaps?) your device won't be harmed as part of my testing by the way.
I'll need someone so I can run through soft-loading the SPL and flashing it on etc.
now, unfortunately, my ISP has royally ****ed up my ADSL line, so currently I'm running via my PDA, which is costing me £1 per megabyte, which is rather unpleasant, so please do bear with me guys.
capeli: I'll get the SPL patched shortly for testing, cheers mate.
Waiting Also. I am inAusralia with a new 3600i and would like one of the cookeed ROMs I have been reading about. I will keep close to theis thread for an outcome.
Perhpas I could bother you all with some questions:
Will a new ROM affect what is on my device currently?
Will it affect my 3G settings to my service provider Telstra?
Will it affect third party apps I have instaklled; TomTom, Task Manager, TouchPal?\
Can I go BACK if needed?

Must be alot missing from that ROM.. only 41,5 MB
it would be really nice if smone like gonzo will take care of wings software like hes doing on vox..
Okey. I flashed this OS to my wings.. cant realy see any difference?
Windows Mobile 6 Standard
CE OS 5.2.16.22 build: 18128.0.4.4
Does not look like 6.1 to me? strange..
Gonzo released several updates, for example here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1997049&postcount=142. I would be nice if you could try to flash this one.
//edit: This post is more recent: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1997049&postcount=142
The Rom is missing "Xip.bin" so it is not extracted propertly...

My mistake here, I flashed an old rom..
Now tried flashing this 6.1 rom, and it just goes to 82% and stops..
I cant figure out why.. I extracted the .nbh file, recompiled it to wing220.
But still, no go... strange...

Trying to figure it out here Trying to find a WM 6.1 kitchen.. I tried the Kaiser 6.1 kitchen but it does not run well here.. I need to extract all files properly.
guys, just wanted to say you should rather start from the source instead of starting from my rom which is still buggy and already a bit customised for the Vox.
You can download the original moto q update from my server here : http://ostiedbrosse.free.fr/Xda-Dev...GSZDRWNAPCNCMNSL003_secure_2803416007_1FF.rar
I found it on a chinese site.
BTW if you know of any other wm 6.1 standard version PM me.
Good luck on porting it to the Wings. It's not particularly difficultbut sometimes things don't work and you just can't locate the problem. + it takes a looot of time
Hi Dr. Martin Gonzo!
Thank you . Can you give us a short description which steps we have to do in order to port it?
Thanks,
SimonKnight6600
Finaly getting somewere here now.. But a big puzzle sorting out all the files..
Made some attemptes flashing the 6.1 version over. But the unit does not boot like it should..
Anyway, moving in the right direction at least
you have to at least replace coredll.dll in the xip and you can get rid of hd.dll, osaxst0.dll and initflashfiles.dat
Also don't forget to replace \.VM in \SYS with .VM from an original s730 rom.
If you have questions PM me, give a quick smmary of all you have done me and I'll try to help you.

Is there anyone who has the original HTC S730 ROM so you can always restore your phone?
I can imagine that you flash your phone with a cooked ROM and you don't like it that you want to go back to the original HTC rom, but I can't find it.

No, sorry. Just havent had the time..
Flash Hard SPL before you try to flash any new OS to your device..
Hard SPL, USPL, SSPL, SPL.....
As far as I know I have to run a file on my phone to unlock the phone so I can install cooked Roms. The phone is then unlocked until you do a hard reset.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

umm i don't know what kind of a rom you are trying to flash but keep these things in mind:
a) no hardspl yet ... so very hard probability that you can brick your device.
b) roms come as a nbh file ... which is one file not multiple parts ...
c) well this is actually a question: what is the source of this rom??? can't be here as here every rom is a single nbh + customruu.exe
i would say refrain from flashing this particular rom but again its your device your choice
He probably downloaded the parts from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444170
Meaning he has multiple *.rar parts.
cnguyen I really think you should wait until you get a walkthrough.

Hi,
In my opinion you can't upgrade your HD with Orange ROM. There is no HardSPL yet !!. But if better upgrade by latest Asian WWE ROM.

this is a RAR archive formed from 3 parts. you need to first unrar it using, obviously, winrar. double click the first archive and it will ask you to extract all the others.
once you have extracted all files, you will realize there are only two files, one of them being an .exe file. you should run the .exe file and it will guide you through the installation.
BUT, since your device, as all others, is CID, installation will not work, since at the beginning it will check for the Carrier ID and fail the installation, if it comes from a different carrier (GSM operator).
What you need to do is sit back and relax, wait and follow the thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431217
Once these guys have a solution for Hard-SPL, you will need to install first Hard-SPL and then your new ROM version, the one you just unrared.
PS. Just did a sum up of all the info posted above.
use ur
sn
and modify it as follows
for uk use HT846xxxxxxx
for french use
HT850xxxxxxx
or HT851xxxxx
in above cases xxxxxx represents ur rest of SN
try it and post rest of codes for other countries
but i have not installed it on my phone yet as i have to retore my Original SPL
then have to use USPL for flashing i guess
I'm sorry but you have completely lost me!!
What is the point of this? Explain? What is SN?
its serial number found at back of HD under battery
SN is your HTC Touch HD serial number. It's located under the battery on a label with all the information about the phone (IMEI,S/N,P/N, made in, etc.).
This SN is used in this form:
HTML:
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=2&dl_id=533
The serial number is under your IMEI number and it's look something like this:
S / N:HTxxxxxxxxxx
(before and after this line there are barcodes)
where x is some number or alphabet. So if your SN is let say:
HT620KD27521
You have to change it to:
HT846KD27521
so HTC servers think that your phone is from UK. That's all of it.
As far as I know last # to the left represents manufacturing year, and next 2 digits represent the week number
Are you sure to change the first digits?
pw120 found out this schema...
HT849KD07500 UK
HT849KD07000 Europe
HT849KD01000 Dutch
HT849KD04000 French
HT848KD02000 Swedish
HT846KD04000 Norwegian
HT846KD05000 Finnish
HT846KD05500 Italian
i was not not sure because i tried my sn with different combinations and got Rom files for different languages

If Dutty's Rom is not giving you any problem at all, stick with it. You may download and keep the latest ROM for future upgrading when you hit problem in Dutty's Rom as you install more programs.
