C500 Runing Qtek Upd - How to downgrade?

[Guest a18041967]

I have succesfully upgraded my C500 to run the Qtwk 8010 update, however I'm not happy with the clearview fonts and miss the Orange menu...

My question, is how do I downgrade to any Orange rom, either the original V4.1.1.1 or the more recent leaked version?

I have edited the NBF file, many times and the uppdate appears to work, the phone has a green % graph and reaches 100% and claims a succesful upgrade. However whenever the phone resets it has the Qtek logo screen and version number, the update does not seem to be applied.

I have noticed that during the update, the update bar on the phone is green, then at 99% & 100% goes red and waits a little longer and then turns green again?

Any ideas, is there a way of putting the nbf file on the mini SD card and reflashing it that way?

Cheers

I dunno if there's a way to downgrade, although I've heard there isn't.

My ideas: why don't you tweak the registry to tur off the cleartype fonts, and download a start menu program (can't think of one right now but they are out there!)

Hope I helped...

Any ideas on how to do that?? (all the options mentioned in numerous topics don't work for me)

currently the only way to downgrade from the qtek rom is to get your phone unlocked from www.imei-check.com because the v2 bootloaders lock the phone and spvdev's haven't got arount that yet

I tought there's a program that will be able to downgrade to the French update or English update... I'm going to test that program right now..

Update:

That program works fine! No faults.. That's better!

If you want that program, send me a PM with your mail so I can send that program.. it's about 60 kB..

Even with this patch the problem stays...

I can not downgrad, anyone other thoughts.??

Same here, there appears to be no way to downgrade, the reflashing all seems to work correctly, 100% Complete however the phone reboots and the Qtek ROM is still loaded.

What I have noticed is that during the relashing, the status bar changes colour, at 2, 11 & 99% the staust bar changes from green to red and theres a delay.

I've completed the post on SPV-Developers on this thread http://www.spv-developers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=265

basically you'll have to download this program http://www.spv-developers.com/forum/attach...attachmentid=78 unzip it on the PC, transfer it to your phone, run it there (after having installed the certificate) and follow the standard procedure described for the latest french update
