Vodafone v1605 / Herm200 - Rom upgrade

[simmonsn]

I have a Vodafone UK badged v1650 / Herm200. Rom version is reported as 1.20.161.5 (06/06/06).

I have been attempting to upgrade to (what I believe is) the latest Rom versio - vf-uk_qtek9100_aku2_v21779300_wwe_ship.exe, but repeatedly get an Error 224 Device Not Responding.

I have performed a warm boot, with the same effect and a cold boot to wipe all information does display a prompt on the Qtek asking for approval for a program to run (ru...........exe). However, if the Yes option is accepted, the same 224 error is eventually returned. Repeating the upgrade then only gives the 224 error and no prompt regarding allowing the programme to run.

What am I doing wrong? Is it not the correct upgrade, despite being downloaded from a Vodafone site?

I've also tried using 9100rom with push mail_ship.exe which I believe is QTEK's own version, but get the same problems.

Any suggestions?

The QTek 9100 is a totally different device. There is no Voda ROM as yet for the v1605.

Can't wait for one to turn up though! :(

Thanks.

Obviously Vodafone don't have much idea themselves. I contacted to customer services and was told Tech Support would contact me. I later got a text effectively saying "ask the manufacturers"!
