Deal!

Hey,

I'm looging to change my Qtek german ROM to an English one.

I'm pretty sure we can find a deal in exchanging our ROMs!

But you need to tell me how to extract and how to reflash afterwards.

If interrested contact me.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Cendaryn:
The english ROM is here on xda-devs-FTP

But: please before flashing your OS upload the german ROM there!

This would be my very best xmas present :D

Cheers
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lousticdr:
Ok for your christmas present!

Hello Cendaryn,

I just need coaching or tutorial for extracting and then flashing the ROMs.

If someone tells me how to extract I will post for sure.

And I need also help to flash the english ROM.

Thank you :D :D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Cendaryn:
Well this is my biggest problem - I know how to flash the ROMs but not how to dump them. But I guess a little search in the forum here will help :oops:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lousticdr:
Sorry

Sorry with no tutorial I can't help.

I'm really willing to post the german ROM. But haven't a clue where to start.

Does anybody know?

Thank you.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] bepe:
Dumping the ROM seems to be not easy

this is what I found: [Universal] How to d2s (dump) the ROM

I can't help you because I dont have a Universal (Qtek 9000) but I'm very interested in files of this ROM too!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lousticdr:
Dumping the ROM seems to be not easy

Well, you say it.

If I look the post you mention I still have no idea where to start ???

I keep on seeking for complete tutorial.

By the way, does anybody know if changing the ROM is also changing the WM language? Or do I have to change separately?

Thank you.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] bepe:
A ROM also includes the WM language.

Near to target ... but ...

Hi,

Thank you for the links, I feel I'm very close to dump the german ROM.

But not done so far.

And I'm becoming impatient because I found the ROM I want to put in place.

Keep on helping me end pray for I resist not to flash the original german ROM. :) :) :D :D :P :P :twisted: :twisted:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lousticdr:
Arrgh!

I'm going mad to find how to backup original ROM.

Don't know if I will resist any longer to flash without backup.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] bepe:
Would You please try to run grab_it on your Universal?

This would give us a RAW-ROM-Image.

and i need a file dump (TestWM5) of a German ROM.

but you will need a Storage Card to do this.

German ROM needed ?

Hi all,

just reading through this thread here. I have an original VDA-IV with an unchanged ROM. I am trying to convince myself to upgrade to JasJar or O2, but did not do so yet. Any wish for a dump from me ?

(Have to leave now, but am able to do so tomorrow)

Alex
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Manolito:
Idea

Maybe, we can have it a little easier, because I think, ROM dumping is very difficult and could also be hard to flash on other devices. For MDA compact (HTC Magician) for example, you had to edit the dumped ROM with a binary editor before it worked on other devices. Also, there often were problems with some SD card readers/writers, etc. :(

The best way would be getting a ROM update from the vendor (e.g Qtek) as a complete EXE-File. This could be flashed on other devices with the maupgrade_noid-Tool from xda developers FTP server.

So, it would be nice of you Qtek users, if you could write an e-mail to Qtek.ch! :)

They offer updates for Qtek users, but you need to mail your IMEI number. So MDA Pro users are not able to get Qtek updates this way.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] steiale:
I'll do this.. No problem..

Any other requests?? :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Cendaryn:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Manolito:
Hello guys!

Has anyone been successful in contacting Qtek? :?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] steiale:
Yes! I called several firms yesterday. But you won't like the result..

Ich was talking to the two main distributors who import qtek mobile phones.. Even they are not able to flash them. They send the phone to sweden to the general distri for Europe. The distri is called dangaard. They have all the roms but no chance to get them from them.. At least this is what they told me. Even the german distris don't get them..

But what makes me hope ist, that I was told that qtek itself will have a internet page by middle of january. There will be rom updates, as I was told. The site name will be www.qtek-corp.com. The site is run by htc themself.

What they also told me is that there is s lot of trouble in changing languages of the moviles. They had a big customer that bought over 1000 Qtek 9000 and wanted 300 of them in english. Qtek said that they won't change it.. Allegedly because there was a license issue by microsoft..

Thats all I found out.. But I didn't mail to Qtek.ch yet.. Do you think it makes sense..

Regards, alex
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Manolito:
Thank you very much for your efforts! :)

Qtek.ch would be our last chance. I would give it a try.

But hopefully the new Qtek site you mentioned before will offer updates soon. If it's run by HTC directly, there should be the latest updates available.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] steiale:
Ok I'll give it a try..

I think there will be another issue in getting the WWE Rom in Germany..

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] steiale:
But I guess not the latest.. I had my Qtek delivered with the latest German Qtek rom.. This was far more advanced than the latest MDA ROM that they are talking about at ppc-welt.info..

I wrote an email.. Waiting for te reply..

This is written in German because it is a letter to a German vendor to get a German ROM!

Könnte jemand mit einem VPA 4 und einem Vodafone Vertrag versuchen das Formular unter http://www.vodafone.de/vodafonestars/17076.html auszufüllen und in etwa folgenden Text einzugeben:

Guten Tag,

Ich benötige die aktuelle Software für ein VPA 4, die ich leider noch nicht auf ihrer Internetseite zu finden ist.

Da sich mein Gerät beim öffnen des Internet Explorers aufhängt und nicht mehr bedienen lässt benötige sie dringend.

Leider lässt sich das Problem auch nicht durch einen Komplettreset beseitigen.

Ich hoffe ihr könnt sie mir zusenden oder ins Internet stellen da ich nur sehr ungern mein neues Gerät wegen eines Softwarefehlers zur Reparatur einschicken würde.

Handynummer: 01...

IMEI: (*#06# auf dem Gerät drücken und die Nummer hier eintragen)...

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] deinziel@gmx.li:
One more thing, does the nk.nbf file contain the boot image / splash screen as well? I don't want to overwrite this one.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Ruud Westerhout:
First things first, but I think You can find this information here in a lot of threads.

When You upgrade You upgrade three parts : OS, Radio and ExtROM.

If You want to keep the ExtROM, just take it out of the upgrade before You start it.

About the splash screen. Just search on that word and You will find ways to copy AND backup your actual splash screen. Exactly follow the instructions and You will keep your splash screen. After You change your OS to T-Mobile, You will definitely have their (T-Mobile) splash as well, so You will be able to restore the splash to your beloved Vodafone.

One more thing, I do not know if the Vodafone ExtROM will work without mistakes on your new T-Mobile ROM, be sure to check the .cab-files You will decide to run.

Hope this helps.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Manolito:
T-Mobile Update

Well, I tested the new T-Mobile ROM. There are some improvements and it's much better than the first "buggy" version. You can read a lot about it in other threads.

But I really hate the T-Mobile branding everywhere! :roll:

The dialer / video telephony on Qtek looks MUCH better and there is also more free program memory.

I'll use the latest T-Mobile ROM for a while, but I will re-flash immediately if there is a new Qtek ROM with the same or a higher version number available.

Nothing works. Battery loses 30% for 8-9 hours (charge to 100% — go to sleep — wake up to find my phone only have 68-73% battery :mad: )

I have two Galaxy S4 models: GT-I9500 with Wolfson audio, and SHV-E330S with Qualcomm WCD9320 audio which is slightly improved version of WCD9310 used in GT-I9505.

What can i say... After using I9500, sound quality of E330S sucks.

1) Not as loud as I9500. So you need earphones with good acoustic amplification.

2) Sound is kind of dirty. Not as clear as I9500.

You can use some software audio improving, but if you are real audiophile then you should know that you can't improve quality by software processing. You can make it louder by increasing RMS, but u won't get a better quality than chip capable of.

Qualcomm audio chips are not for those who like to listen the music a lot.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Markuzy:
Ensure that root access is enabled on your Slimbean rom.

This is quoted from slimroms.net:

Once superuser is enabled, try via the Slimsizer again.

If it still fails:

Use a root explorer app from the play store. Any of them will do. Ensure superuser permission is granted, and remove from system\app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perv88:
Thanks a million man. Also, in case anyone else needs this, use a cleaning app after erasing Nova(or anything else), and reboot your phone. Remember to have a second launcher installed prior removing Nova.

You misunderstand. Anything you see from the home screen is the launcher. Without one installed it is just a black screen that you can't do anything with.

If you want that then find the JB launcher somewhere around.
