Guest gpcarreon (MVP) Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 HOW I MANAGED TO UPGRADE TO QTEK ROM: A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can also download the PDF format of this guide here: http://smartphone.modaco.com/viewtopic.php?t=90189 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a 'simple' guide on how to upgrade from Smart ROM 1.3.7.8 (bootloader 0.98) to Qtek ROM 1.50.9.1 TNX to spv_dman for the ROM and to all MoDaCo members who made a post in this thread. MABUHAY ANG PINOY!!! Note: Back up personal data first- contacts, emails and tasks. Backup Data Connections (MMS/GPRS) settings also. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What you need: 1. Qtek installer ( http://www.qtek.nu/files/Qtek150.zip ) 2. USB cable 3. PC ( tested on WindowsXP Pro OS ) 4. Your SPV/SAP ( the upgrade was done on a SIM-unlocked phone running on SmartROM 1.3.7.8 ) - tnx ryan 5. Patience ;) ( entire upgrade process takes about 20 minutes ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Procedures:- sorry if some pictures are blurred. 1. Access Tri-Color Canary MV (hold down REC + POWER ON button, release the buttons when you see the screen light up. Then you'll see "Card found...Press any key to enter bootloader". Press any key). You will see this picture with "Serial" on the lower left corner of the screen. This is how the Canary v0.98 looks like when phone is not connected to PC. 2. Sync phone to PC. You will see "USB" instead of "Serial" at the lower left corner of the canary screen. 3. In your PC, open folder containing the installer (ruu15091.exe ; file size=10.9 MB [11,501,568 bytes]) 4. Run installer...Next...Next...then click Upgrade button. 5. There are 2 stages in the process: Erase (IPSM) and Upgrade (write new ROM). Stage 1 on PC: You will see this progress bar on your PC while erasing Stage 1 on phone: You will see a white screen in your phone: "Erase __% completed" Stage 2 on PC: Progress bar while on stage 2 Stage 2 on phone: "Upgrade __% complete" *If you get this Error message, don't panic. Disconnect phone, remove the battery then put it back after 30secs. Access canary again, sync phone then run installer until upgrade is complete.- I have no idea why I got this error message. You're almost done when you see this. 6. Disconnect phone, remove battery then put it back after 30 seconds. 7. Push POWER button to load the new ROM...it will take some time to load the newly installed ROM. If you see these on the screen...just click OK ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! YOU NOW HAVE QTEK 1.50.9.1 ON YOUR PHONE :D :lol: ;) Qtek...Simply Amazing! :) :wink: Finally, do a soft reset (restart phone) to verify upgrade.

Guest sunyats3n Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 anyone have bootloader 0.98? I'm willing to buy SD (64 mb or 128mb) with bootloader 0.98 on it. btw, I'm from Cebu.
Guest dinoalbert Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 meron bang nandito ngayon (Sunday) sa Makati na may bootloader 0.98 sa SD card? Want to copy it on my sim-locked SAP with Qtek ROM
Guest dinoalbert Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 naka-QTEK ROM...hindi ko kase na-openline before I upgraded to Qtek kaya naka-simlock pa rin ngayon kaya kelangan ko mag-0.98 bootloader muna
Guest spv_dman Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Downgrade mo na nga lang muna using the orange rom i gave you. Magiging 0.98 ulit ang bootloader nyan, tapos itakbo mo yung spv unlock, then upgrade ka ulit to qtek. Gagana yan :)
Guest dinoalbert Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 last resort nalang siguro yan pag wala akong makuhang 0.98 today...kase mabubura IPSM ko pag downgrade/upgrade...mamya ko siguro gabi pagpupuyatan yan kase mag-iinstall nanaman panibago ng mga apps but for the meantime hanap muna ako ng bootloader today baka meron.
Guest sunyats3n Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 mine is SMART 1.50.28, that's why i need the SD with bootloader 0.98. If anyone could make a spare.
Guest mariolouis Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 but why would you like to openline your phones? globe's not good any way. blocked na lahat ng sites. kainis bwisit!
Guest sweetyls Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 onga, globe's blocked all the good download sites. pero i still use it for google search especially when i really need a dictionary (i'm a student), and also for checking yahoo mail or hotmail. besides, i like the idea of upgrading to a better rom, not just unlocking the phone. bad trip smart e. haha.
Guest mariolouis Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 @seewtyls well, even hotmail and yahoo are being blocked by globe. haven't you noticed it? try calling 211 and a recorded message will tell you only the globe wapsite is accessible for free using the free apn. @* i have the bootloader saved in mmc. i'm willing to lend it if you guys want.
Guest sweetyls Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 tsk tsk. globe talaga... i'll borrow ur bootloader din ha. :)

Well you can also use the dictionary program you can install for the phone, much easier IMO :)

Guest jhongcat Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Meron bang naka-experience lately na naka QTEK ROM ang SMART line na hindi na makapag dial out? Ang message ay "Your number cannot be completed as dialed....". Incomming working pa rin. Pero pag GLOBE no problemos.
Guest spv_dman Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Meron bang naka-experience lately na naka QTEK ROM ang SMART line na hindi na makapag dial out? Â Ang message ay "Your number cannot be completed as dialed....". Â Incomming working pa rin. Â Pero pag GLOBE no problemos. Lahat ba ng numbers na tawagan mo ganun?
Guest jhongcat Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Yup, lahat - SMART to SMART, to GLOBE, to PLDT. Na try ko na rin palitan ng ibang SIM, ganun pa rin :) . Weird.

Â Ang message ay "Your number cannot be completed as dialed....". Â Incomming working pa rin. Â Pero pag GLOBE no problemos. Tinawagan lang ako ng buddy ko na naka Qtek ROM kanina around 8am.
Guest jhongcat Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Mga 6pm ko lang napansin today (aug 31) na hindi na ako maka tawag. Anyway, observe ko hangang bukas, kung ayaw pa rin downgrade ko uli sa SAP 1.3.6.7. Na check ko na rin Telephony setting with my other SAP, parehong pareho naman. Hindi kaya sinasadya ni SMART na i-deny ang naka QTEK ROM? I'm sure merong taga smart dito na alam na ang QTEK ROM ay network unlocked.
Guest spv_dman Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 Outgoing calls for qtek is working naman, just tried it a while ago. There's reconfiguration of telephony when you switched ROMS. I never did that with the upgrades I did.
Guest dinoalbert Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 but why would you like to openline your phones? globe's not good any way. blocked na lahat ng sites. kainis bwisit! I still have a Globe line kse (2 years tied up)...I use my T68i before with it but I just sold my T68i to a friend so wala na akong paggagamitan ng Globe ko sayang din kse monthly ko binabayaran hindi nagagamit :cry:
Guest casperr Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 my outgoing is also fine with QTEK
