I got fed up with the fequent unrequested reboots so went for and upgraded to the latest QTEK rom. Not only have the reboots stopped, but the phone is much more responsive. Well worth giving a go in my opinion. smile.gif


Has anyone considered writing an app that could log every time the device starts?? I'm sure it's not too difficult, but I've never developed for PPC before. Might be worthwhile to see when and how often it's happening.

Or maybe I'll forget that idea and just stick the I-mate rom on! Is it possible to revert back to the T-mobile rom if anything goes pear shaped?

Yes, just download the latest (well what T-Mobile call latest!) ROM from the T-Mobile site and install it. Don't worry though, the I-mate install is a breeze. I certainly won't be going back to a T-Mobile version.

Sorry to be a pain, found the club i-mate ftp area to download the rom, but just want to be sure I've got the right one!

I've noticed my phone resets on a regular basis during the day. Have had the problem with two different Mini-SD cards in, fresh from power up and no apps running, etc.
I do notice that when it does reboot there is a dialog saying "close SmartsKey" - which suggests to me that software is still running in the background when the "reset" occurs (if you run smartskey when it is already running, you get this dialog)... so is it a real reset? I do hear the PC speakers do their bipping noise as the phone reconnects to the network - so something is resetting, but not everything?

Hi - i have a qtek 9100 and with the 1.6.7.1 rom it occ used to reset itself. Now been upgraded to the aku2 rom and it does not happen. It seems to be only a problem with the old rom's, have not heard of this issue with new aku2 rom.

I have downloaded that file and run it, it shows the vario, but then says "INVALID VENDER ID", and won't go any further. Anyone got any ideas ?

EDIT: (10 minutes later)
Ignore me... why didn't I do a search first! Anyone else with this problem, look up INVALID VENDER ID on this forum and there are lots of answers!

Thanks,
Andy
