Hello,

This is my first message to this excellent forum. Congratulations to all people involved in developing solutions for our devices.

Yesterday I bought a qTek 9000, which came with software 1.13.64 WWE (unlocked, no provider). The machine works fine, apparently due to the fact that runs the latest firmware (judging from what I read here, such a nice operation was not always the case). After searching the forum, consulting the Wiki, I couldn't find a way of making a COMPLETE backup of the qTek ROM image (OS + Radio Code), so that I would have a safe backup before I start "playing" with the device :)

I tried the XDATools found in the Wiki and particularily the OS tool, but it didn't let me grab the ROM image. Can someone enlighted kindly direct me to the right tools for the job (grabbing the ROM image and then restoring it to the device). I have knowledge from the old iPAQ "Parrot days", but I assume that things should be more complicated now.

Thank you very much in advance for any help.

Actually, since your ROM is the WWE, you dont need to backup your ROM...

Just download the whole shipping ROM exe file.

Here it is:

Thanks to buzz lightyear for leaving this file for the public
