As far as i concern, only the blackberry has been added to the latest rom for the IIi from o2, those monkey didn't even update the radio version (1.03 latest) ...
It will be tomorrow.......
Hey Pug - how you getting on with the radio on the latest O2 IIi ROM?
Read somewhere on this site that the new ROM wouldn't work with the radio 1.03. Thought I'd persevere for a couple of days but it wouldn't work.
I then thought what "Fu** it" and went back to 1.11.162 as realisticaly I'd never use Blackberry much anyway. It'd be cheaper for me to check my e-mails over GPRS.
Should delete that modified update from the FTP as it doesn't work, unless someone wants to see if they can get it to work.
ta for the update, I'm using O2's new ROM with Blackberry support - and so far (touch wood!) - it seems ok.
ja it does seem ok at pressent ..does anyone find that it connects much faster when say updating traffic on tomtom ..not sure if it is my imagination or not
Hi
The new 02 ROM has problems with using Bluetooth headsets I have found and I dont care about the Blackberry bit. I am going to revert back to 162 over the weekend.
Pug, i cant find your cooked 1.03 Radio with 162 extended ROM, can you provide me with an updated link please?
Cheers

Hello everyone im new to the forum, i have a t mobile vario, i have managed to unlock it curtusy of lokiwiz unlock 0.2a. i have a few questions if someone could help me on
1. on the unlocker software there is a option of CID unlocking, what is this?
2. is there any differences between the different variations of the wizard, 02 mini, tmobile vario, kjam, qtek.... which has the better firmware??
3. can i put either kjam or qtek firmware on my vario?
Many thanks peeps :lol:
Speaking as an MDA Vario owner who has reflashed with the k-jam ROM (and now can't go back!) I would say the only benefit of changing ROM is to enable 802.11g network access, which T-Mobile disabled in software.
There appear to be no other benefits. On the downside there are features that come with the Vario that do not work with the k-jam ROM. e.g. the email setup wizard does not work. Hardly a showstopper but an example. There is also an error message on resetting about elatepushservices.exe not found or not signed. Again, it doesn't seem to cause a problem but why klutz your machine up without a good reason to do so? The version numbers of everything that comes with the Vario also seem to be higher than the k-jam ROM, which I'm guessing is a good thing.
Unless you simply must have 802.11g connectivity, as well as 802.11b, my recommendation would be to leave well alone. It will also make warranty support much easier.
oh ok so is that the only major difference then. i find my vario isn't that stable. my device currently reads
rom version 1.3.2.2 enu
rom date 9/25/05
radio version 01.04.10
protocol version 4.0.13.17
extrom version 1.3.2.102
did u use ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/ for your firmware?

I did use the clubimate ftp ROM and my equivalent figures, with the Vario extended ROM remaining, are....
rom version 1.1.9.3
rom date 9/16/05
radio version 01.01.10
protocol version 4.0.13.16
extrom version 1.3.2.102
so all my version numbers are lower than yours excep the extended ROM, which I saved from my Vario.
I don't recall the Vario ROM being less stable than the k-jam but you need to be very careful what software you install as there is a lot of stuff that is not 100% WM5 compatible. It might install and it might run but it might also crash or destabilise your machine. I have only installed the T-Nobile supplied GPRS monitor, Total Commander, TomTom 5.21 and a couple of GPS utilities and that's it.
As soon as you start throwing in today plugins and other system utilities that are less than 100% WM5 compatible you are asking for trouble, IMHO.
Hi there,
I just looked on the FTP, but is there any Dutch K-Jam/Qtek 9100 ROM available for the MDA Vario?
Thanks!!
Jeremy.
on the ftp i can see:
RUU_Prodigy_1030710_110_10410_Qtek_NLD_Ship.exe
-> uploads/htc wizard
this is right for you

Just check the XDA-Dev. FTP site.
There you can find the Dutch rom which greddy pointed out.
ftp.xda-developers.com
user = xda
pass = xda
hmmm by the looks of it i might hold out until theres some newer rom updates with significant improvements. at the mo it looks like theres only a few tweeks and i dont wana risk bricking my vario.
t mobile released updates for the mda compact and mda II http://t-mobile.iris-global.com/mdas.html
maybe they'll release some for the vario???
For us we own an english version of Qtek 9100 in which site we'll find the future ROM Updates?
have you tried xda developers ftp site? ftp://xda-developers.com/ or dont qtek have a support area?
Hi there,
Thanks, I didn't see that.
A few questions:
1. HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD THE FILE?? I can access the FTP-server, but when I try to download the Rom, the file stops downloading after apx. 20 - 40%, whichafter I even have to reset my router to get the internet working again. I used both the FTP Explorer and the Internet Explorer.
2. Should I also upgrade the Extended Rom? I want to get rid of these ugly, squared, pink and grey T-Mobile phonepad keys, so is this stored in the Extended Rom?
Which Extended Rom should I use? There are more of them, so which one is for use with the Dutch Qtek 9100 Rom?
Thanks again!!!

If you ae comfortable doing this, could you perhaps make a backup of your t-mobile rom. I downgraded to the k-jams rom without doing a backup...silly me, anyway would be grateful if someone would pop a copy on the ftp here.

Jim
I also done exactly the same, i didn't have a miniSD card, an i was too eager to upgrade so i couldn't backup my rom.
Now i wanna go back to the T-Mobile rom but no one has one on the FTP. would you be able to upload yours?
It would be very much appreciated by a lot of people here.
Cheers
i dont mind creating a back up of my rom, if someone can point me to how i can do this.
i to want to get rid of the rubbish pink phone pad, it looks ugly
jay - are you using ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/ or ftp://xda-developers.com/ ? it should work, unless your connection keeps dropping?
Need to refresh my memory on the back up procedure... get back to you on that later.
Regarding the pink key pad, a bit of registry hacking should sort that out
If you have a registry editor, follow the below, worked fine on Compact II but never got to test it on the vario before the downgrade
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin
Properties
Dword- Enabled
Value - 0 (default HTC skin - cool blue)
if you change the value to 1 it then displays the T-mobile's wonderful pink and grey pad.
Save the changes and they do a soft reset
Hope that helps

Yes, i've tried in the FTP site. But in there the roms are backed up from other devices and not directly from Qtek support. First, I would like know if there is problem or there are any diferrences between roms backed up from devices and the other from official support.
In the end, i'm asking if there is a link for official Qtek support where we can find the future rom updates.
There is a nice pdf guide on backing up your ROM here you need to do procedure 'r2sd all' as opposed to 'd2s' as suggested as that guide was for the magician.

Newest ROM?
Hi,
I own a T-Mobile MDA Vario, too. It is already flashed with a WWE-KJam-ROM. Now I want to know, if there is a possibility to flash a German ROM to it. Or if there is a newer version of the KJam.
My device informations:
ROM version : 1.1.9.3
ROM date : 9/16/05
Radio version : 01.01.10
Protocol version: 4.0.13.16
ExtROM version: 1.1.9.106

t mobile english version
hi to everyone
I have a mda vario with t mobile deutch and I'd like to know if it is possible to flash the rom into english t mobile rom or an other english rom. If possible could u gently explain me how to do?
many thanks
here are so many people with a German MDA Vario.
Isn´t it possible, that one of them reads out the original ROM and set´s it to the ftp so that others, that want a German ROM can flash this?
I am not a professional in this, so correct me if that is not possible...

Hi there i am in desperate need of the sim free firmaware for the 9100!
I have searched the forum but every link i try cannot be displayed!!
can somebody pls give me a link that works and instructions on how to install it????
Many thanks!!!!!
PLEASE HELP
I HAVE SERIOUS FIRMWARE PROBLEM WITH MY PDA!!!
you have to be more specific if even want people to help...
Just screaming HELP will not fix your prolems...
tell us what the problem is , what oeperator you are using, what do you mean sim free....
SIM free is not a option , you will need to run the lokiwz version .3 and get the unlock code
other than that all the ROMS are available on FTP ftp.xda-developers.com user id xda password xda...
feel free to help yourself.
OK
PDA already accepts any network, i been having software problems eg software freezes!
here are my device info -
rom - 1.5.4.2 wwe
rom date - 11/08/05
radio version - 01.09.10
protocol version - 4.0.13.20
ext rom - 1.5.4.102
if this is anymore help!!
Thanks for ur initial reply!!!
depending on what operator you use and you can logon to the FTP site and download the latest rom from there... Cingular and Tmobile i know have release newer versions in the last few weeks...
When you login goto WIZARD folder and then look under ROMS there are a whole bunch of providers...
When you say software freezes, you have to be more specific what third party s/w you are using it could be one of those that is causing the pain...

No, you need the English ROM, it'll have WWE in the filename
I'm in desperate need ofLATEST UK ROM FOR XDA IIS. There r so many roms on this site.. but i wanted to get the original UK o2 rom.. also i'm not sure whether i will get a country ID code error or not.. and what am i suppose to do ... pls help me.
I recently bought this phone and i realised that i can't use mp3's as ringtones as the phone would only recognize Wav formats unlike the XDA II Mini i had.. can someone pls guide me with the latest UK rom may that will fix my dilema... I don't even know if my phone is called Alpine or Himalaya... pls help me out .. thanks.
anyone in toronto area.. who can help me out with this.. might be able to give you some cash... lol
guys someone can atleast tell me if there's a way of getting phone to use mp3 as ringtones or no.. (without actually screwing up the phone or making it unstable by downloading wm5)
If it's the XDA IIs from O2 that you have then it's not an Alpine, or a Himalaya, it's a Blue Angel!
You can confirm this by going to Settings->System->Device Information->Identity, it it says the Model No. is PH20B then you have an HTC Blue Angel branded as an O2 XDA IIs...
The latest ROM is available for download from the O2 UK website if you have an O2 number, but I'm guessing you don't... I have the O2 installer, it's 40.2MB, so if you have a site I can upload it to PM me...
More importantly, why do you want the O2 ROM? There is a little app which lets you set an mp3 file as a ringrtone without changing your ROM, and plenty of apps give that functionality as well, MortRing, PhotoContacts Pro, RingoPro etc...
Let me know what you actually want and I'll see if I can help!
if you have blueangel this is the rom for you (the latest O2 UK rom)
hey
thanks guys.. i finally got it done through O2 UK website... wasn't that tough... now i ordered a Tmobile MDA (wizard ).. should be getting it soon... have to unlock it... thats another task..
P.s - I hate the Stylus on this thing.. keeps coming off.. for the moment i applied tape on it.. but looks stupid if you ask me.

I unlocked my HTC Kaiser from O2 in the UK to use in China on China mobile as I'm teaching here for a year and didn't want to waste my Kaiser by not using it! All audio on my device is no longer functioning which is a big problem. Any ideas anyone?
Thanks,
Gareth

Losing sound is usually due to incompatable radio - did you upgrade the ROM or use a patched radio to unlock?
Best read the wiki on unlocking and ROM upgrading
What ROM-Radio combonation (versions) are you using? You can find out by going to START>SETTINGS>SERVICES>DEVICE INFORMATION That would help to maybe find out your audio issues.
I am using ROM version: 1.82.206.1 WWE
Radio Version: 1.70.OliNex
Protocol Version 25.65.30.04H
Thanks! I'll check out the related info now..
You need a new radio....
I looked at the wiki (which was very helpful); gathered I needed a new radio based on the sound issue and really couldn't see which radio I needed- there are quite a few! I'm not sure which version of Windows Mobile I'm using (6 or 6.1) and don't know what's the difference with radios from different countries? My phone was purchased in the UK in Jan/Feb this year with the 02 operator.
Any help much appreciated.

You are using WM6.0 unless I am sorely mistaken. So no 6.1 radio should work. Might I suggest using the download link in my signature, navigate to the radio folder, then 6.0 radio and choose one to you liking.
Sorry if I'm being stupid- but how do I launch the application? I have the RUU_signed file but don't know how to launch or install it!

The safest/most reliable/quickest way is to reanme the RUU_signed.nbh to KAISIMG.nbh. Copy it to the root directory of your storage card. Enter bootloader and follow the on-screen directions. Once it says "OK" then soft reset.
Thanks a lot, I'll try that.
