Hi,

I changed my MDA Pro to the Qtek-Rom and the Radio to the 1.04.10

If you do so, also the language will be changed (from German to English) and the Keyboard-Layout ((Quertz to Querty) which you can resolve with some registry-hacks).
My device is running more stable and has more memory (Qutek is without any branding)

Will be no problem to help you - but this way I need some details:

Which kind of keyboard do you have? QWERTZ or QWERTY (look at your keyboard ant the first 5 letters are important).

You've to download the following files:

UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe
MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
radio_1.4.10.zip

which all can be found at the ftp-server of the developers
ftp://xdaupload@ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/
but you've to look in all folders (Roms + shipped Roms)

Make a new folder on your PC (maybe update)
Use WinRar to expand "UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe" to this folder
Copy "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe" to "update"
Delete the radio.nbf in "update"
Expand "radio_1.4.10.zip" to "update"

REMOVE every card from your MDA (SD + SIM)!!!
Connect your MDA
Run "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe"
if there is an error (mostly language...) run "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe" again without changing everything!

After the update-prozess, you don't have to disturb the installation of the programs (it's only usefull stuff, no branding).

Change the key-respons from QWERTY to QWERTZ:

Use a registry-program like resco explorer with registry add-in and change the following key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
change: Layout from 66569 to 66567

You can also change the soft-keyboard, but I'll tell later because I've to go!

Good luck!!!

Now at home with MDA Pro:

Here is the link how to change the symols in the soft-keyboard:

Some things cannot be changed in the soft-keyboard but that's no matter!
Have a nice weekend,

Hello Teja,

The site you give here requires password.

I looked here:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/

But can't find the mentionned files.


Other thing did you perform a backup of your original ROM? If yes how?

Thank you

Teja
9th January 2006, 07:41 AM
No, I didn't perform a backup, and I think it isn't possible at the moment.

Here are the direct links. Hope they'll work:

ftp://xdaupload:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe

ftp://xdaupload:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/ROMs/radio_1.4.10.zip

ftp://xdaupload:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Shipped%20ROMs/UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe

Maybe you should copy the whole links in your browser and it'll work. I use firefox 1.5 and I'm able to browse on the ftp-server...

Have a nice week and good luck!

Hello Teja,

Those links are working fine.

Thank you!

Hello Teja,

Those links are working fine.

Thank you!

Sorry I made a mistake: I gave you the link for a old radio-update...

Here is the correct one (I also edited my post):

ftp://xdaupload:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/ROMs/radio_1.4.10.zip

If you've allready done the updates, you can make the radio-update without loosing any datas:

rename all *.nbf to *.old and copy the new radio-file in your update-folder. Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe (maybe twice) again.
The MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe will only show the radio-update!
Just do it - after finishing, soft-reset your device (no hard-reset is necessary).
Enjoy the new update!

Hey,

I first felt into Boodloader-Modus, but it was my own fault. It took a long time to solve the problem, but it was very easy:

REMOVE ALL CARDS FROM YOUR DEVICE! SD + SIM!

My one was "Net-Locked" and I've never heard about problems with "Sim-Locked" (but I always was not interested in)...

Hi,

today i tried to update the radio on my mda pro:

- I removed the SD and the SIM card.
- I did a reset
- I started the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe 2 times
- the upgrade started but stayed on 0 % for 5 minutes
- then it stopped with an error and I still got the original version

I tried this 3 times and I even tried to do a complete update as it is suggested here and always got the same error message.

Can this be because of active sysnc, the virus scan program or the cable (although it is the original cable)? Do I need Active Sync for the upgrade or can I stop it somehow?

Teja
10th January 2006, 11:02 AM
Hi,

it is suppost to close "Active Sync" (by Task-Manager) and to disable the firewall / antivirus, but I never had problems without doing so...

Is your MDA in BL-Modus when you want to update (blank screen) or is it still in "normal" modus?

Maybe you've the possibility to use an old computer/notebook without any programs running on?

Teja

turtle
10th January 2006, 11:23 AM
Hi again,

it is in blank screen mode - but if you look very closely (the backlight is off) the screen sys something like updating radio... please wait.

Teja
10th January 2006, 12:43 PM
and what happens?

turtle
10th January 2006, 09:02 PM
I tried it with the bootloader mode afterwards and then it worked with the radio update. afterwards i tried the full update with bootloader screen - but it only worked the second time...

Teja
11th January 2006, 07:52 AM
It's written in this topic that you've to run the update 2 times ==> so it works perfect! Congratulations!

Teja, thanks for your mini howto guide above. I am now installing the Qtek rom on my MDA Pro.


However you should realise that only germans use QWERTZ keyboard layout, the dude who started this topic is dutch, so am I, we use QWERTY. :) So the info on that part is somewhat useless.

But thanks again

Teja

Hey Captain Pervert,

you're right: I don't know which countries are using qwert and which qwerty ...
But only an idea from myself: I had problems using the radio 1.06.00 so I make a "downgrade to 1.04.10 ==> much better connections, maybe BT has an profile less...

Yes: You have to extract the UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe with winrar in one folder and copy the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe in this folder! Then you can run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from this folder (first you'll get an error, but restart the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and it'll run)!
If you want to use a newer radio-file you also have to copy the downloaded radio.nbf and copy it into this folder.
Teja
But if you would have reading this treat here, the 4th post is an exactly describtion how to do!

Teja

You can also update to the new german rom this way but you'll have to make some registry-hacks to get the qwery-keyboard. Updating only the radio to 1.06.00 is also very simple without loosing any data (and no change in the keyboard:
Delete all *.nbf - files in your "update-folder", download the newest radio and extract it in the update-folder.
Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe twice (first stops with an errror) and after the update make a soft-reset!

Help !

I've copied both the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and radio 1.4.10 into the UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe dir (unzipped) and run the noID update.
I got no error and I read you needed to do it twice.
WARNING< STUPID PART COMMING UP
I synced with activesync true BT :roll:
so I started the update and after a while it said connection error....
so the mda is now stuck in ?bootloader? I get Serial or something on the screen (no light).

I run the update again, radio and rom update, when it's finished and I reset, still nothing.
In the update program everytime it says nothing with my current rom, ext, radio


How can I fix this !!!

Sounds not good :( but if I read your message right: you've tried to do it over BT? :shock:
If you've the possibility, you have to do it again with the USB-cable!!! Just connect the MDA in BL-Modus to the cable and do it!

If I connect it with the usb cable my windows recognizes it. I can start the update but it will says I have no rom, no radio and no ext version. It will update to 1.4.10 radio etc. etc.
but when it's finished, still nothing :(
