It says nothing about downloading this file on the official download page, there is no link for this anywhere. THe only way to download this is if you login to the ftp site which is not in the instructions. Can you post your versions of camera, mms etc. I think you just installed a beta over the official which is included in the offical release.

Thanx Cairo, I was about the post the same information.

It's when I did step 2 and hard reset that I got the test version message on the FIRST BOOT ONLY.

Finished up with:

ROM 1.72.00WWE

Radio: 1.14.00

ExtROM: 1.72.800

Camera 2.01

Caller ID 1.14

Sim Man: 2.1

MMS Composer 1.6.0.14

Another minor warning and a question:

There is a new icon called "Clubimate Email" or similar. When I used it, it changed all my ActiveSync settings and all my contacts/appointments vanished.

Does MIDI playback sound a lot worse in this release or are my ears deceiving me? My MIDI ringtones sound like crap now, but everything else is fine.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] drj:
This second step of applying a new extended rom IS BETA. It has now been removed from the official clubimate FTP site. Login it is not there now from the list, it is hidden.

I only ran the one file, RUU172126WWE_imate.exe the official version which also went through a step of upgrading the extended rom. My extended rom version is lower 1.72.126, but same camera, caller ID etc. versions as above.

I have exactly the same version numbers of the above post,

I do not have this clubimate email icon that erased everything.

I assume is a auto config if you want to sync with the Clubimate exchange server.

Since doing this second step is not available for download from the download page, I conclude that IF YOU DO THE so called "SECOND STEP" and reflash the extended rom you are installed beta software. It may be a higher extended rom version but it seems to be BETA.

AM I WRONG?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Mr.P:

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jpsanders:
Hi Drj,

I tend to agree on many fronts, but I disagree about the 2nd step download, which is still available this morning. On the instructions page, it's a HTTP download, not FTP (unlike the main rom which as HTTP and FTP links - maybe due to it's size), maybe they removed the file from FTP because it's not linked in their instructions?

Whether beta or not, I'm satisfied I flashed my device according to the instructions on clubimate (as copied above) and my device only said "not for resale" once, so I'm not worried. So far it's been stable, fast, Caller ID can't be shut down anymore by task managers, etc. I just wish they'd fixed ClearType.

You are correct about the Club I-mate Email icon, it sets up ActiveSync to sync with their exchange server over GPRS every 5 mins, a side effect of this, if you aren't expecting it (and it doesn't really warn you) is that it syncs contacts/appointments as well, meaning you lose all yours temporarily (until you resync at home/work).

Is there anything else but what I listed in the Ext. ROM?

Phil
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] adhoc:
Hello. I think this depends on your machnie: i upgraded straight away from the beta tmobile 1.72 to the imate 1.72 on my Qtek2020. And for the moment everything works and i rocks even the cleartype problem has been solved, at least on my device.

When upgrading my Qtek 2020, from T-Mobile beta 1.72. I says MODEL ID ERROR. What to do??!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] adhoc:
Try reverting (flashing back) to your first rom version, as it seems that these first versions weren't locked in anyway and that you can after flashing these versions go back and forth to other roms. i only share my experience with you: I own a french Qtek2020 with a Dangaard French language Rom. i flashed it back and forth to tmobileWWE english versions, O2 versions, and recently from the tmobile 172wwe beta to imate 172 latest release and there wasn't any problem. i even just checked now while writing this post that i could at least launch the program to downgrade to the 1.03 version. All that seems involved is a double flashing, back to your initial romset and then forth to a newer version; With this trick i can even change the language of the OS

If your are not confident in doing this,better stick to a lower version rom that matches at the closest your expectations and is so full of bugs, you cannot use it.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Rudegar:
if you mean TO t-mobile beta1.72 and not from tmobile (because as far as i know tmobile dont make qteks) you mean it says and not I says

then try this

otherwise i have no idear

if you are moving back from 1.72 search and read in this forum

many people have issues downgrading from this beta rom

but i think somebody had some workarounds
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] skenliv:
I solved the problem, or atleast, it seems that way. Upgrading right now.

I simply removed the Device ID on the roms. "PH10" and then, bang. Upgrading works!

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] d-o-h!:

O2, allegedly, have pulled their beta of this version as it's unstable and causes problems with call quality. And to downgrade, you have to go back several versions and then re-upgrade from there.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Panja:

Thats because it's a new upgrade program:

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] noviur:

You have to select specific file type while openning each ROM.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Panja:
M8,

We're not talking about the ms file included in the full rom.

We're talking about the external file, RUU172800WWE_CDL_SKU1.exe

a 6 or 7mb rom file.

Includes a ms (extended) rom file.

A different file than the one provided in the full rom update...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jpsanders:
The entire RUU172800WWE_CDL_SKU1 thing is weird if you ask me.

According to drj, the Camera/MMS/CallerID etc software is the same version as I listed from my device and the only new thing is the Clubimate Email icon (I'm not sure if it was in the base upgrade, by drj says not).

Very strange...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] skenliv:
Maybe it´s SPYWARE!!!? :lol:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Panja:
That's why I didnt install this "update"

I just used the extended provided in the full rom update and put my own files in.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jpsanders:
Flashing stuff always makes me a bit uncomfortable. It's the first time i've flashed my XDAII (which isn't insured, etc), I've heard many stories of dead phones and decided to follow the instructions to the letter.

(as default, i.e. without breaking it open), until you install the "special" extended rom, you don't know what's in it, it may indeed fix some of the issues mentioned in the fixlist or it might just install that clubimate email shortcut, or as Skenliv says, it might be Spyware :-)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] skuld:
Yeah, perhaps it provides carrier specific customizations like O2 ROMS or T-Mobile ROMS since it added the clubimate email icon. But, I am still curious as to why they provided RUU172800WWE_CDL_SKU1 and would like to break it open ...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] drj:
I asked imate support and got a response.

"Basically, you have already downloaded the full device upgrade in the one exe. The customizations are just for some particular customers, like Telstra direct customers. They can get Telstra default settings and Telstra Icons after they install the customizations. You will not find the Telstra customizations upgrade in the download page if you did not purchase your unit from Telstra shop. Certain downloads are presented on the upgrade page based on the unit that you have."

Best Regards,

Customer Service

i-mate Customer Care

So looks like the one exe contains all the upgrades since ALL my version #'s (mms, camera etc) are the same as when you put the beta extended rom on, and by doing so you are only adding useless customizations.

Nice one ... Many thanks, mate! :)

So I guess that the only difference between ExtROM 1.72.800 and 1.72.126 is the Default_ImateV1.1.cab (which provides c ustomizations, right?)

And jpsanders, have you tried the MIDI561.sa.cab from the T-Mobile 1.72.104 ROM? Might solve your problem ...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] yourmate:
I AM sick, for sure!!! This must be like coke or alcohol...

As soon as I find a new rom out there - I want to upgrade! Is there a name for this? ROMaholic?!?

Just finished the fine tuning on t-mobile 1.72 beta, now I’m upgrading to imate :)

(however I not smiled first, must admit...)

I've downloaded all three files from the thread(s):

- the so called "beta" - ruu120_172126_i-mate_wwe_r11400.exe

- the ext rom - RUU172800WWE_CDL_SKU1.exe &

- the final version RUU172126WWE_imate.exe (posted this afternoon)

then unpacked them and checked the dates of the rom files. The "beta" is an old babe from 05/05/2004 (like the extrom from 19/05/2004), however the second full is dated as 02/06/2004 14:14 which is definitely not an old one :)

so I went for the fresh one...

sync, reset, er2003edit and go - after erased the whole rom, the process stopped & my smile gone... (xda2 in bootloader mode, no reset helps)

the screen said: disconnect (cradle & device) / reset / reconnect /start over

I did so (even reboot xp) and - after QUITE A FEW minutes (at least it seemed) the process started and t-mobile 1.72 beta became imate 1.72 final

huh

few comment about the rom:

- no "test" or "beta" bootup screen whatsoever (not even for the 1st time)

- the standalone extrom (RUU172800WWE_CDL_SKU1.exe) has a "test only" boot image

- after playing around a few minutes t-mobil seemed faster (not measured)

- cleartype is ugly as usual (but I don’t use it anyway, so no problem)

- extrom not really full packed :)

- BTPSKeyUpdate_003.exe has gone inside the rom (hopefully)

- t-mobile CameraB70_Hima2_WWE.CAB is bigger than imate CameraRC132_WWE_1.5.sa.CAB and this usually means "newer", so needs to be checked

- I am just started to open and check the cabs, so can’t say the difference from t-mobile one

cheers,

ym
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] yourmate:
okay, have checked those cabs:

I don’t think changing to t-mobil midi will solve the problem with midi playback since looking inside both cab, obviously the RTPlugIn.dll exactly the same, the only difference between the two is in Platformxxx.reg in the 57th row: in imate "MIDI"="B5.6" & in tmob it says "MIDI"="B5.6.1" Changing the version number makes little difference, right? :)

OEM_WWE_04042201.sa.CAB maybe has something to do with the improvements stated on the website (accumulator, etc) because it has files named _rilgsm.dll, _Battery.dll & _HSDCard.dll

what should be used from tmob extrom is the CameraB70_Hima2_WWE.CAB. Look inside & you'll see the files are newer with some new screen button icon installed as well...

that's for today (tomorrow to be exact :) )

cheers,

Take the best from all the new versions that are comming out and create the best!

I am still new at this so I am probably not the best one to try and do this but I think I will try. I might screw everything up, but then I get to figure out how to unscrew it. ;)

If anyone of the people that know this stuff a lot better want to put one together then make a post. I will wait till this weekend when I have time and by then maybe all the new stuff will be sorted through. Maybe even have a new custom rom made by one of the guys that know what they are doing... ;)

When a call comes in normally you see the number and when it's a contact you'll see the name (company name, etc)

@ [Krueger]Dr.Stein

from its name I assume that is the bluetooth upgrade they promised...

@ Panja

sometimes it does, not usually (but sometimes it did with qtek 1.66 rom as well I must admit)

ok, then let's see my extrom:

I deleted one specific cab (map program for our capital city) which is not really useful for others in an international forum

I also not use mms - which (in !my! opinion) is just sg invented by sps to get my money... instead I use email to send pictures

I working on truefax set up (checking the tmob & kse original against each other) - when it's ok I'll upload it as well to extrom

the files starting with "!" are those I need, but dont want to/cannot run in batch mode due customization. I run those separately

however !Resco_KeyboardPro_v4.20.cab is not mine, since I use spec keyboard maps (& don’t use many original, so deleted those from cab) & also modified registry to have my spec Fx settings at installation - so I put here the original for your convenience :))

same with !Imaginet_Finger_Clixen_v1.0.cab - mine is a bit different...

additionally I have 2 more files:

my custom.cab (on permanent storage) which sets the bootup logo (from a picture I made in Paris & technically matches here, so don’t expect Jennifer Lopez kind of stuff :lol:), theme & it copies my self-made (wma) ringtones to /windows/rings

install.zip (on sd card - not attached here) with all the addon programs I need (spec setting file for PocketPlus, set up for RingtoneX, games for my son, mms (if I will ever be in need - which I doubt :)), hp mobile printing, serials.txt for my programs, etc.

i hope you can use (at least some of) them...

that’s all folks

ps. Be warned: NO shiny company customisations are in these files (even though I’m on tmobile) – but hey, you can set your gprs settings, ait’ you? :lol:

new i-mate rom upgrade!

O.K last night, I let my friends i-mate be a guinea pig for new rom upgrade!

we first read this forum till last evening!

After first rom.exe upgrade, we stopped and it was terrible! clear type worse than ever! graphics banded! It looked like one of them cheap dell axims!

We went ahead to install the second rom which is supposedly for the telstra likes...on setting up, it showed text NOT FOR RESALE ! but surprisingly i-mate was soooo clear after 2nd upgrade, text so clean without clear type set on (text was horrific when clear type was set on- worse than ever!-still 2vtry shadamehr clear fix). But apart from clear type ,it looks great and even pocket skype is working! It never seemed to work on previous rom versions! battery moved down only 4% in 8hours!

*A question is given that Not For Sale sign at the start!Is this a beta? Should I change or upgrade anything?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jpsanders:
Hi Shadamehr,

The "Use of ClearType" option doesn't enable ClearType, you still have to enable it in Screen settings.

Sadly, the Original/Alternative option doesn't seem to make any difference at all.

Particularly bad is White on Blue (i.e default scheme start menu, or text where the highlight is over it (i.e. lists).

Good idea though,

Can anyone else confirm that the specific customisation ROM brings back good Cleartype to the 1.74 i-mate?

Panja mate - care to try my zip file first, and then if that doesn't work, the customisation ROM this poster refers to, to see if that's good Cleartype?

Sadly so cleartype not fixed. I've tryed that utility (that selects type of cleartype :) ) but it don't helps. Its modifies two keys in registry but I think for himalaya OS it's useless keys, somewhere else it has changes.

Or it's works for someone?

Cleartype sparkling yellow when white text on blue background, and sparkling blue when black text on white bgr. It was in i-mate ROM 1.66 (I draw back to 1.60 O2), and as told here still in 1.72 from i-mate.

Any useful info will be appreciated, maybe we can do something... Cause in other changes rom seems to be needed (or not?)

In 1.60 (and in older) have some probles with Jabra BT200A (48A) headset - before every first use when headset taken from charge or turned on or BT turned off/on on device It losts one another and after unpredicatly actions it can find each other but it sometimes take lot of time and magical voodoo dancing... (I also used alternative stack from bluetooth.i-networx.de - same connectivity problems)

Does BT fixed in 1.72 as they say:

- Headset Bluetooth bonding imporvements

- Bluetooth throughput improvements

or not?
