Couple days ago I was having headaches from the Imate Smatphone2 from upgrading it to the newest Rom from Imate.

3 problems "IMATE ROM"

"Screen saver" ppl calls without noticing bcz the cell doesn't ring and when I tried it my self I noticed I can't wake it up coz it's freezed.

"Video Capture” when I capture a video clip on playback it just plays the first frame.

"Bluetooth" I tried to turn it on but a msg shows an "Error" but it's fixed from a hard reset.

So I decided to flash it with the Qtek Original Rom, I had all the files needed from Fixe.exe and the Fixed VoUpgradeUT for BT v1[1].07 by Florin.exe, and of course the Greek Qtek Rom :P, Here it was the biggest problem when I got stuck on the 10% the first time by using the Greek Installer with the Original Qtek Rom > nk.nbf file, I didn't remove it coz I read from a thread this important msg:

Hi guys! GOOD NEWS!

I have just tried "downgrading" my Qtek 1.9.14.1 ROM... And ran into the same 10% problem. However using fauno's method, I have managed to make it work!!!

Here is exactly what I did. You will need a few ROM versions:

1. Update the phone with the GREEK version of Qtek 1.7 ROM installer. The flash will hang at 10%... now comes the tricky part.

*** DO NOT POWER OFF OR DISCONNECT YOUR PHONE ***

2. Use the Windows Task Manager to kill the Qtek 1.7 installer process (VoUpgradeUt).

3. Now, use florin's fixed.exe together with the ROM of Orange SWISS 2.6.5.3. It should allow you to start flashing your phone. If you get error 117, just quit the program and try again using florin's fixed.exe.

4. Now the phone should be updating using florin's fixed.exe and the Orange SWISS ROM 2.6.5.3. Watch the progress go past 10%... 11%... it works!

This will get you to the Orange 2.6.5.3 ROM with the 1.07.02 bootloader.

*** NOW YOU ARE BACK TO THE "NORMAL" SWISS E200 ROM 2.6.5.3 ***

5. If you want to take the safe route... now use florin's fixed.exe AGAIN with the Orange UK 2.6.1.3 ROM. This will bring your phone back to the older E200 ROM. Now upgrade to whatever you want...

*** HOWEVER I WENT STRAIGHT TO IMATE ***

6. I skipped step 5. I used florin's fixed.exe in combination with the latest Imate ROM. At first I got error 117. But I just tried again, and it allowed me to flash! Went to 100% no problems.

Now I am on the Imate ROM. BTW, the bootloader version of this new Imate ROM is 1.07.01 also.

As you can see he managed to work out a way to install the Rom but I tried something else, I tried the Original Rom Qtek installer but I also got stuck on the 0% what a day no!!!! It was hell for me, anyway I used his method but this time I used the Fixed.exe with the Imate Rom the installation went fine and I used this rom for 10 min, but I noticed the video playback bug didn't show that much as the first time installation and the other problem didn't show up, I still wasn't satisfied so I went to the Orange Rom installer and used the fixed.exe, I used this rom for 1 day bcz it made me charged the smartphone two times! It’s sucking the battery :S anyway I decided today to flash it again with the Qtek Original Rom.... I used the Greek installer + Qtek original rom nk.nbf installation went to the end and I'm trying it.

So far this Rom is working fine. Video playback works fine :D now I'm gonna test battery life... Wish me luck guys cos I don't want to test the o2 Rom I know it's based on Qtek but still who knows. I'm really fed up...........

Good day.
