Impossible upgrade qtek 1010 french

[elmedit]

Hello

With this post, Im lookin for someone who could help me to upgrade my french Qtek 1010 (Orange operator) to a WM2003 ROM (I dont care to have my qtek in UK...)
I search on the MANY MANY posts of this forum but dont find a solution to LANGUAGE FRA...

my Qtek 1010 (32mo):
ROM : 3.19.10 FRA
date: 06/30/03
radio:4.21.00
protocole: 32s54

Well, I try to put a ROM.exe but I have a message: INVALID LANGUAGE: FRA...
Then I try some ROM (exe) from different websites but the soft block: ROM NOT FOUND ON YOUR DEVICE/VERIFY THE USB/SERIAL CABLE (something like this)

Then i read that I could upgrade my phone by the SD but I dont have any SD reader/writer...

So if someone could explain how to FORCE the installation of the KITCHEN ROM...If someone have the same french Orange & put another ROM that the original...Im interested....

Thank you

if you got a exe rom in french then you change the extention to zip and copy out the nbf file which is the rom and then you follow this guide


Ok here you go, its a little outdated but its what I still use:
Qman's how to use XDArit to write nk.nb1 or nk.nbf to your SD card aka the Bootloader Method!
1. Place XDArit and the nk.nb1 or nk.nbf file in the same folder and start XDArit.
2. Select your SD card (disk drive) from the drop down menu.
3. Select Write to SD
Notice that the Windows CE box is already checked so just click the browse button at the end of that window.
4. Select your (nk.nb1 or nk.nbf) image and then Open
Notice by default XDArit will open looking for a *.nb1 file but if you're going to use a .nbf file you'll have to manually change the "Files of Type" to *.nbf
Notice that nk.nbo / nk.nbo was automatically added as your boot-loader and its check box is unchecked so leave it that way and click OK. XDArit should start writing to the card.
When XDArit has finished writing the image put the SD-card into the XDA and hold the power button and soft reset. You'll be taken to the below screen:

SD DOWNLOAD
Card Type:
CE OS & BOOT
Press action to Download
Or
Press REC to Exit
Press action to download and it will start the download/restore from the SD card.
Follow the on screen instructions once its "Completed" which will consist of a "Soft Boot/Reset".
