[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] seal:
Hi everyone.

I had big troubles when I put the official TM rom on my Qtek 1010 as I could not change my rom again and I did not like the TM rom as it had so much crap that seemed stupid if you were not with TMobile, as I am with Vodafone Australia.

I tried everything to finally after every test got some luck, I will try to explain.

Grab the official TM2003 download which has the radio update as well and extract the file, Run the TMO2003.exe and it will install the program to your computer. Do Not install anything to your phone yet. Then go to C:\program files\RUU and grab the file "ENGLISH" and cut and paste to your "desk top". Now I had a cooked rom 4.00.10 from the kitchen that would not load. But if I extracted file and cut and pasted the "english" file from the cooked rom into the C:\program files\RUU where I removed the original file and put on desk top. Then run the Upgrade.exe file in C:\program files\RUU and it will install the cooked rom....as well as the TM radio. I then just installed the radio 4.21 to give me the radio I needed for Australian Vodafone.

Now the tricky part........... :idea: :shock:

To get the Upgrade.exe to run and find the device I had to put the phone in the cradle, wait till it synced with the pc, then turn off the phone and then turn it back on again as soon as you hear the sync noise then run the Upgrade.exe and then it seems to find the device.

This all seems very strange but it worked for me. As I only have an SD

card of 15MB so I can not do the SD card method.

I am downloading a cooked rom 4.00.05 and I will try to load that and will let you know if it works.....

Hope this is of some help to someone.....
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] seal:
I totally mislead you all...... :shock: :D :roll: :roll:

do not replace the file "english" replace the "NK.nbf" file.....

Sorry

Just tryed the same procedure with a cooked rom 4.00.05 and it fully worked.....Love it.

Note I got a warning that I was upgrading to the wrong version so I left the original TM2003 in tact untill it got to the verify your rom upgrade page then I swaped the "NK.nbf" file.....

Hi Ya Seal, fellow Aussie here.

Thanks for the tips.

Can you tell me what the original model of your qtek was before all your upgrades. IE. on the back of the unit should be a number like PW10a1 or PW10b1

I have a T-mobile PW10b1 (US model) and im not sure if i need to upgrade the radio stack for Australia.

I have read here in these forums that upgrading to the incorrect radio ver can permanently stuff the radio section.

specs.

T-Mobile PW10b1

rom 3.08.10 eng

radio 6.02

Hi. I tried both offline KDZ and CWM image of V20B 4.1.2 and in all cases the JellyBean ROM has hideous fonts in menus.

Installing other fonts doesn't help. The thin ones look especially bad, as if sub-pixel hinting was disabled. I love the L9's display and on ICS the fonts looked very crisp, but after the update it just doesn't cut it.

And yes, it does matter to me. It's a P760. If you have some workaround, please help. I tried the recent CM10.1 and it looks MARVELLOUS, but due to the bugs I can't keep it.

I too am having the issue. Will probably use this to justify trading for another phone within my 45 day Best Buy silver premier return window. I like the phone but this issue and how my phone just shuts offs needing me to hold the power button to reset twice a week is getting annoying. I also noticed the back is easily scratched. Always run my screens naked and never had a scratch since my Diamond Touch so figured the back would fare as well as screens. Picked up three noticeable scratches on back within a week.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Mike724:
Is there a reason for these phones turning off like that? It happens to me a bit too, and I have to hold the power button for a bit to get it to restart. :confused:

@OP: No, I do not notice this issue. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right area though..
[AT&T LG Optimus G] slaveonepunx:
I think it may be related to heat. The area on mine sort of stretches and distorts the image in a nice rectangular area. If you look at the teardown, it is where the ram is located along with processor underneath. Since it happens to everyone in the same spot, I doubt it's a defect in the screen but a symptom of the heat. Can't be a harbinger of good things.

I've done it before, and it was quite easy.. but I can't remember how I did it.. Although I can remember I locked my phone to receive an htc update, unlocked it, rooted it, installed recovery &d done..

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ajkett:
OK, I'll start by saying sorry for my stupidness and thankyou for listening to my plea.

I downloaded Jeff's XDA special edition .exe file and unzipped it to a Dir seeing all the files needed to upload a new ROM to my XDA.

I (in all my wisdom) decided to run the osimagetool with the --register and proceeded to right click on the nbf 30mb rom image and selected burn...thinking this was the way to do it (not even trying to run the original exe)

The "programme a" program started and started updating my xda. It started off updating and after a few seconds i heard the "BLIMP" of the activesync telling me it has disconnected, then another blimp telling me it had restarted and re-connected to active sync, but the loader on the screen quickly zipped to 100% done and told me to remove and reboot the xda. The xda however was telling me "upgrading... It will take about 5 minutes". Urk :(

Now im left with an XDA that sit's on this upgrading screen even after reboot of it.

OK... ive done wrong.. im silly... would any one step up and help me out here (BIG PLEASE AND TY also). Ive got an XDA serial cable sitting here next to me as well as the usb cradle (which im sure wont help now the xda cant run active sync)....

Ideas? Can i run the original rom uploader (xredit?) rather than osimagetool with the serial cable to upload either the new rom i have or the rom i backed up of my old device before doing all this (yes i did back it up to my harddrive first - phew?).

Thanks for reading, and i hope someone can point me to a place in the forum where all people like me end up, or even better send me an email pointing me in the right direction.

Thank you! (email Tony at tkett@tagworldwide.com)

Note: my original version was 3.17.03 and the "programme a" upgrade program said it was upgrading to 3.16.

and uncomment the line

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ajkett:
Itsme, thanks for your interest in my problem. And im very glad people like you are around to help :D

I have however and thankfully repaired the fault.

Here, (for other newb's like me that get stuck) is how i done it:

I had already backed up my ROM using the osimagetool program to a nb1 file on my pc called "oldrom.nb1". Now because my XDA wasnt booting into Pocket PC windows, i couldnt use active sync to sent the rom image I backed up, back to the XDA...so I had to go and buy a cheap SD reader from my local Dixons store and run osimagetool again. This time writing the rom i had backed up to the SD card in the new SD reader.

Then I rebooted the XDA into the bootloader (hold down the top power button and do a soft reset) and selected to reflash the XDA using the SD card.

If you havent already backed up your rom from your xda to file, then I presume, you have to find another person with an XDA so you can download thers to your SD card (once your in the bootloader menu, press the contacts button to get the options to dump their rom to your card). OR find an NB1 file on the internet that matches your phone version.

These may be simple instructions for most of you, but i've seen a few posts that directly relate to the problem i had, and saw people crying for help, just like i did...hopefully this will help those few.

I did also have a serial cable, and im sure there is a way to upload roms you have on your pc to the XDA via that (using the xda developers old rom tool), but im afriad i didnt read into that after finding out this method. (this way may be better for the skint people who dont want to buy an SD reader, but can get hold of a serial cable for cheap)

REMEMBER FOLKS

It was silly of me to try and flash the device in the first place without reading loads and loads of entries on these forums and really finding out what is going on instead of just flashing blindly in the hope that it would work first time.... please dont follow my lead. :shock:

Thanks again for your help Itsme...and one last question... do you think that with that registry entry as it was above, that i can try again with the .exe jeff made (possibly downloading it again in case of corruption)

(yes i am a glutten for punishment)

Hi Ajkett,

Thanks for sharing your knowledge of how to resolve your problem with us. I have however used a new 64 mb sd card to flash my old rom (3.16) to it before trying out the Jeff rom kitchen exe and thank god things are fine for me. Now I have bought a cheap 6 in 1 card reader/writer and would like to keep the old rom in a safe place in my hard disk hence freeing my sd card so that I could use it. I have read those threads in the rom tool section many times and still can't work out how to use the osimagetool. When I clicked on it, it gives me the interactive screen but always do not read my sd card. Even with the card reader, it seems to "think" that the sd card is unformatted and ask to format the card for me. Now the question is whether the rom is inside or not? How can I use the rom tools to read the sd card and copy the rom to the hard disk? What does a rom file appear as? Is it like the nk.nb1 file created in Jeff's rom kitchen?

Cheers

Vic
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ajkett:
ahhh your trying to read the rom from the sd card after dumping it to the sd card from the xda?

the way i got it onto my harddrive was without an sd card. Just run the osimage tool and select the xda current memory as the source and then type c:\oldrom.nb1 as the destination.... it will use activesync to read the rom straight from the device.... you dont need the sd card to back it up.

Then when i ****ed my xda up, i run the osimage tool again and wrote from source - oldrom.nb1 to the sd card reader to a formatted sd card.

When it writes it, it gets rid of all the formatting so you wont be able to see whats on it on your pc....the only thing its good for then is to use on the xda to overwrite the rom, until you format it again that is.

Its not like a file on the sd card... its like a bootdisk with the rom written in a way that the xda will understand that its a bootdisk and will boot from it to overwrite itself... like the file is in raw format... not a nb1 file or anything (looks like lots of gobbledigoop) and the pc will not read it.
