Help! Can someone help me downgrade my colleague's QTEK 9100 to the TMobile ROM? I've unlocked the CID using IMEI-Check.com's software but the TMobile installer still won't run. It gives me a 300 error invalid update tool - please use a newer Update Utility.

The QTEK's stats are:

IPL 2.17.0001

SPL 2.17.0001

GSM 2.07.10

OS 2.17.7.2

What am I doing wrong? Surely now the CID is unlocked, I should be able to downgrade to the TMobile ROM quite easily or am I doing something wrong?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. My company have bought 4 of these phones as I said that we could run Blackberry Connect on them (and indeed I've been running it very successfully on mine, but I didn't need to downgrade my ROM)!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ojan:
You don t need to downgrade.

Using the T-Mobile client is not the easiest way to go, I would advise using the Vodaphone client (not branded), it works perfectly with my QTEK ROM AKU 2.

You can find it on the German vodaphone site (www.vodaphone.de).

The client, desktop app and manual are in English.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] cyentsang:
Wow.. that will be great!! Can you tell me which Qtek rom (version?) and is there any specific installation step?

Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ojan:
I' m running 2.17 from QTEK with Radio 2.07.10, but from what I understand, as long as you' re AKU2 it should be OK.

You can get everything from here:

http://support.vodafone.de/index_l3_2z.html

Select " VPA Compact II " and download all three files: Client, Desktop manager and English documentation.

Install the client and the desktop manager ( make sure you choose your country in the list) and choose connect on the desktop manager to generate the PIN.

Once your Admin as inputed the PIN in the system, you start receiving e-mails...

Let me know if this worked for you.

I guess I'm confused... is the issue about BB connect for PDA's associated with the application working on the device or the service provider enabling the configuration?

I just installed the BB Connect application as recommended above; it installed just fine. It appears my next step would be to have Cingular USA enable BB services and then I'm off?!

i have a few questions. im running the 2.26 usa tmobile rom on a us tmobile mda aka htc wizard

i dont work for a company with a enterprise server. and im not familiar with how blackberry works except that its push email.

would it work for me? does instaling this and changing your plan with tmo to a blackberry mail plan give you a blackberry email address? ex: ___________@tmo.blackberry.net

or does it just provide blackberry push mail with your corporate email address?

any and all responses would be appreciated . thanks in advance
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] seattleboi1982:
if you change over your plan to the 19.99 T-Mo USA plan then yes you do get the username@ymo.blackberry.net address. but bear in mind that you will be using version 1.8 so you dont get multiple return addresses in the BIS
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] spiritofseth:
Works with TMoUSA

you have to use latest tmobile UK Rom and the BB connect software on the upload section of the FTP.

1-To get it working you must first be provisioned for blackberry by tmobile

2- after you have been provisioned (this probably wil take several days) you must make sure that NO PROGRAMS HAVE AN OPEN GPRS CONNECtion

3- open the BB client y=on your MDA and tell it to resume service.

4- the deveice will log in and eventually pull an IP address and pin

5- THIS IS IMPORTANT - you must log into my tmobile and change your device from an MDA to a blackberry 7100 (other models may work)

6- THIS IS IMPORTANT - Now click the link that says support for your Blackberry 7100t (this link is on the upper right quadrant of your screen)

7- THIS IS IMPORTANT - on this new page select the link marked "set up your blackberry internet email"

8- THIS IS IMPORTANT - Set up your Email here then goto the next step

9- THIS IS IMPORTANT - - THIS IS IMPORTANT - Click the Change handheld link

- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -

at this point you should be prompted by a popup to accept you new pin this is the most important part. if this doesnot work then you try again later.

- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -- THIS IS IMPORTANT -

Another reason it will not work is because you are not using the Tmobile UK ROM I dont know if its just the rom or the radio rom but for some reason I get all kinds of errors with the mr clean roms (besides I get much better reception with the tmobile UK rom than any other rom I have tried to date)

everything should be working perfectly.

some notes though

the BB connect softeware will not work if there is an open GPRS connection before it tries to connect, also you may have to disable the BB software before using your MDA in modem link mode, once again this is B/c BB connect hates you.

New TMo 2.26 ROM

Ok, I've read through this entire post. Man, it's been confusing. With the release of the official TMo 2.26 US ROM, has anyone tested this out? Has anyone figured out if it's just the issue of the radio ROM needing to be less? I like the new ROM so I'd hate to have to scrap it just to get BB to function.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] antlane:
Confirmed it's working with the UK TMobile 2.21 ROM as well as the QTEK 2.17 ROM. My Wizard seems so much faster and more stable now and annoying bugs have been fixed!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] mdatadef:
thanks Seattleboi1982 and Spiritofseth for yall responses.

seems like alot of work to get it working. nothing i cant handle tho. i dont think im gonna do it tho. i just loaded the us 2.26 rom. i dont wanna have to flash another rom so sson just to get it working. also i use modem link alot tehering to my comp. would be a hassle all the time activating and deactivating the bb software. id probably miss alot of mails. lol

i think im just gonna stick with my mail2web exchange account utilizing the direct push with the new 2.26 us rom. i get my mails within 60 seconds of them being sent. woulda been cool having a bb email address with a mda tho . best of both worlds

I have the bbconnect client installed, it obtained and IP address and PIN. But I have never provisioned a bbconnect device only true Blackberries. How do you provision this with BES?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JoninLA:
Provision the same as a BB. Comnnect to the desktop/laptop, let activesync settle down. Open the desktop client and hit "Connect", go through the usual painful BB password creation and it will then provision the services on the handheld (and syn the calendar if you selected that option). Disconnect and it will establish a connection over the cellular and off you go - don't forget it may take 10 mins to 30 mins before email starts flowing to the handheld (never worked out why that sometimes happens)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] spiritofseth:
really its not that hard once you have the right radio rom its practically automatic the key is to change your phone on my tmobile so that you can get to the bis service then eventually your key will automatically change, this might not happen if you have a hardcare (or poorly made) firewall/antivirus/popup blocker.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JoninLA:
Weirdest thing. Ran fine with the QTEK 2.17 ROm from Saturday till this morning then refused to function and stopped sending or receiving mail. Blew out the QTEK and went with the TMo UK 2.21 ROM and it's back to working again (yes, checked the BES server and all was fine at that end). I'm on TMo service so maybe it's just the TMO BB plan likes to see a TMo ROm but that would not explain why it worked for nearly four days without a hitch... Damn annoying as I so prefer the QTEK ROM's if nothign else to get away from the damn pink phone skin
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] antlane:
The same thing has happened to me but on the TMo UK 2.21 ROM. I'll try uninstalling/reinstalling the Blackberry s/w on the phone but if that doesn't work, I really don't want to have to do a hard reset if this is going to be a regular occurrence.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] antlane:
Also discovered that although the Blackberry status was connected, even the contact lookup didn't work. I managed to solve the problem by uninstalling Blackberry Connect (and selected the option to remove all settings) and then reinstalled again. Seems to be working properly, let's hope permanently!

BB Connect on Cingular 8125

Recent batch of BB Connect v2.1.2.16 can be installed and properly worked on my Cingular 8125 with QTEK 2.17 ROM. It did not work on Cingular's official 2.25 ROM, but it started working perfectly after degrading to 2.17.

Re: BB Connect on Cingular 8125

Correction. BB Connect 2.1.2.16 works on Cingular 8125, but far from perfect.. I can receive e-mails instantly like normal Blackberry device, but cannot write, send or forward anything. These commands do not function at all. in built-in messaging, "system" folder is automatically created instead of "Blackberry" folder as shown in the manual, which is also weird. I only tried BIS, and not sure if it works with BES.

Problem with new ROM, been working

Located in the US, been using the RUU_Prodigy_1060204_105_11210_TMO_UK_Ship.exe ROM for the past couple of months successfully. Decided to upgrade to the new RUU_Prodigy_2210206_22102109_021911_TMO_UK_WWE_Ship.exe ROM today, and have had some problems. I'm still using the BBConnect_PocketPC_TMO_DE_2.1.1.20.cab on my MDA. I never uninstalled my Blackberry Connect Desktop software.

I'm using my corporate BES, not BIS from T-Mo

Steps I took:

1) Load new ROM

1.5) Change WAP settings

2) Load BB Connect on MDA

3) Connect via BB Desktop to MDA, and thus services are transferred.

At this point, the Blackberry software on the device showed connected, although after 15 minutes I hadn't received any e-mail. So....

4) Clicked Register Now on the MDA

Now the device says "Not Connected" and won't connect ?????

5) Went to T-Mo's website, device was set to "unknown". Set the device to the 7100t.

6) Went into Blackberry Settings, selected Change Handheld, gave it the PIN & IMEI.

Not sure what's going on here. Any help appreciated. Do I need to downgrade the ROM? In re-registering, is it possible my BES is now blocking my non-Blackberry device while they weren't 2 months ago when originally registered?

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

After reading thru most of the BB Connect and ROM-upgrade threads I get the im pression that the new (Vodafone originated) BB Connect 2.1.2.16 works on all AKU 2 OS roms, but requires a 2.x Radio roms with version <= 2.19.11.

Arguments:

QTek 2.17 WWE / TMO 2.21 WWE / Vodafone 2.21 GER OS roms do differ but all support the BB Connect

Vodafone / Tmo 2.21 rom upgrade package contains 2.19.11 radio

QTek 2.17 WWE rom upgrade package contains 2.7.10 radio

Has anyone tried the combo of ie the MrClean 2.24 (aku 2.3) os rom with the 2.19.11 radio to work with the Vodafone BB Connect client?

Although this thread (focusses on Blackberry Connect software) nor this forum (focusses on everything Wizard thats not upgrade or accesoiries) is not the correct one, the answer is:

In the Wizard Upgrading forum.

There are numerous upgrade packages in a variety of languages. If youre looking for enlish, you shoud look for packages that have 'WWE' in their name.

Personally I can recommend the Mr Clean AKU 2.3 package, but theres lots more.
