Qtek 9000 – one but very frustrating problem

[Nikanoru]

Hi people!

Problem with the 9000th is the following:

After installing yesterday the SPB Pocket Plus 3.1.2 app my device began to hopelessly hang every time on “switch on”: white screen, collage. I’m dead tired to soft reset it each time.
And this morning something terrible happened. I found the device not breathing (both BT and cell network side diodes weren’t alight), “switch on” button didn’t react. Just after plugging to the charger the device started to load in boot safety mode. After that same hanging continued.
Yesterday night the battery was charged to 80% and this morning I found it at 2%.
I made a back-up and now ready for the operation.
Is there a clear solution for my case? Do I need to take the device to morgue (SC) or could I try to operate it in home conditions through hard-reset and installing later ROM version?
Please advise!
Thanks in advance.

It sounds like your device hung and rather than just switch off, it kept running, draining the battery.

You should definitely upgrade the ROM - it's easy to do and you can get the files from the ftp site here or from myqtek.com but I wouldn't have thought your device is broken.

Upgrading the ROM is really easy but will wipe your device so I hope you had your info sync'd!

Either way, everyone on here can usually sort any woes you may have :)

Oh, and welcome, btw :)

Thanks for a valuable advice.

Ok, I will consider an upgrade, though people at our domestic qtek-mobile forum do not advise to upgrade the ROM saying that in many cases of upgrading to 1.30.70 from AKU2 the device died completely.

Syncing is another issue but not for this time :wink:

And thanks for a warm welcome :)

OK Nik got your problem last week even after the rom update. Basically I was never able to run properly Spb Pckt + on my qtek 9000.

I thus decided to use Ilauncher for a while and now definitely turned to Resco Today Plugin whic is the most proficient task manager, even though it is poor in options and aesthetics. I made that choice combining it with magic button to close apps and I'm pretty set.

Moreover, Resco saves 45% more memory than any other launcher......

Now you now...

Cheers
