Guest PeterG Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 The amazing thing is that it's really the first ROM that I hace seen specifically for the Qtek 83xx series. I wonder how Expansys was able to get ahold of it and there has been no mention of it anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webpage also says 1.5.322.5 is supposed to be the same as the one shipped with the device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pondrew Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Mirac, please do not post direct links to roms as this is against the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mirac Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Mirac, please do not post direct links to roms as this is against the rules. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Didn't know qtek.nu was spreading illegal ROMs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vulpix Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Huh? I thought its illegal to link to illegal ROMs, but this is provided by the manufacturer themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pondrew Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 No direct links to any roms (legitimate or no) nor uploading of roms at all. You can link to official download sites or offical ftp download sites though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nastassja Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 so we can link to the official ftp site BUT not to the official ftp direct link to the official rom? how does that make any sense? for what I can understand from this post from Paul: "Posts will be censored by myself or my moderation team if: - They link to illegal ROMs or sites hosting them - They link to the GBA emulator or sites hosting them (in light of Nintendo's legal stance) - They link to other illegal content or sites hosting them (eg Smartphone ROMs, Illegal Smartphone games etc. etc.)" Are then official roms illegal? If not, why is posting the official ftp site permited if they host the roms and that's not allowed by your rules? I am sorry for the confusion, just want to understand it correcly.

Guest Pondrew Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 No probs. We try to operate blanket rules BUT if an official link is publically accessible then we will allow the post... ...but for example if you have to register your imei to get the rom then a direct link is not allowed. Does that make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 If the file in question is from an official source and also accessible without any registration process then it is ok to link. For example you can not direct link to ROMs from clubimate site as you would be bypassing the clubimate registration process. Quite why Imate do this and then make the IMate ftp free to the public is another matter. As far as I am aware Qtek ftp is not available to the public and you have to register your imei on their site. Because of this Qtek ROMs will not be allowed.

Guest nastassja Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 i see, so if anonymous download of an official rom is permitted then we are allowed to post, but if you need to register you can't post the direct link (that could allow other users to get the rom without registering) but you can post the url to the registration page, for example. thanks for the explanation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest capt_janeway Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Don't you need to have bought your Qtek via them direct to get the update? So what happens to us poor smucks that bought ours via other dealers? (or am I being blonde and got the wrong end of the stick?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kalas Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 I can't register at the qtek.se pages with my qtek 8310 IMEI. I was kicked off because of non-valid IMEI... What should I do? (I hope my IMEI is OK) I would like to known, if there is reachable any european/world support for the qtek with official firmware download.

Guest namiran Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 there are many supplyers for qtek, one is brightpoint that handles the www.qtek.se site...but if your imei nr is not valid there, try another one of the suppliers at www.smartmobile.se , but there is no update available there right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
