Guest gpcarreon (MVP) Posted September 4, 2003 Report Posted September 4, 2003 Introduction: This is a repository of step by step guide, do-it-yourself procedures and tricks on how to do things... not included in the user's manual. Its a 'must read' for all SPV users. This was based on adi116's idea (Share your knowledge) of coming up with a standard reference manual. Advantage: MoDaCo members will be able to download specific topics, step by step guides and tricks related to Smart Amazing Phone/SPV in .doc or .pdf format then view them as reference even without internet access. How should it work? Contributors can come up with a step by step guide using MS Word, save the copy as 'How To xxx.doc', zip the file, then upload here. Or maybe come up with a guide in pdf format (smaller file size). For the Description/File Comment part, you can write the main points in a concise form (view my first upload). Choose the desired topic/s you want to download, unzip, then open using Adobe Acrobat Reader or any pdf reader you know. Upload a tested/valid 'how to' document and help others. :wink: IMPORTANT: DISABLE FIREWALL FIRST (Norton Personal Firewall, Zonealarm etc) BEFORE DOWNLOADING. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [EXTRA]-[EXTRA] a.

Guest deadlock Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 where could i find the bootloader file(.whx)? i could not find a friend with bootloader .98 could someone host it for downloading purposes?
Guest dinoalbert Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 it was posted as an attachment in the thread "Copy Bootloader without using USBTerm"...look for it in the last two pages
Guest midnightman Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 Question. pag nag downgrade ba ako mawawala ang ibang mga programs na kasama sa upgrade?? o hindi dahil ico-copy ko ang IPSM sa storage, tapos balik ulit sa phone?? tama ba ang analisys?
Guest gpcarreon (MVP) Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 @midnightman mag downgrade ng ano, rom o bootloader? pag upgrade sa kahit anong rom version or basta magpalit ka ng rom, definitely mabubura lahat ng laman ng IPSM mo.
Guest midnightman Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 Sorry, naglabas ako ng statement ng hindi ko naiintindihan. sorry magSPAMsa muna ako. sorry pero kung icopy ko nga ang IPSM sa storage. pwede ko burahin ang bago di ba? tapos palit ko ang IPSM na bago. mali pa din?? kahit ROM or Bootloader ang inupgrade ko. Sorry kung tanga ang dating ha? wala kasi ako oras magbasa ngayon eh.
Guest midnightman Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 Mga tol, yung boot loader ba na .98 uk UPDATE BA YUN??? di ba ang sabi don't install a foreign program??? tama ba?? saka pag na-unklock ko ba ang phone tapos nagupgrade ako to the SMART Philippines upgrade malolock ba ulit ang phone to smart??

Guest deadlock Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 sorry guys but i still don't get it, i have been reading from this forum and i am really confused. when i downgrade my phone to a bootloader ssay .98(so that i could unlock it) di i stull ahve to install smart ph 1.3.7.8 rom? or could i just downgrade the bootloader and then unlock. thanks for the help guys @dinoalbert the heprlink on that thread was for the rom version 1.3.7.8 from smart ph, adn not the (whx) bootloader file i'm looking for, anyway thanks for the help could anyone assist me?
Guest dinoalbert Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 @deadlock, hindi mo naman yata hinanap eh :) . I understand you are looking for the bootloader 0.98 (whx file) so you can sim-unlock your phone. Thats why I pointed you that thread...its in page 7....its not about the ROM...its about the bootloader...tatlo yun 0.91, 0.93 and 0.98...eto nalang click mo link: http://smartphone.modaco.com/viewtopic.php...er=asc&start=60 @midnightman yung 0.98, pang-unlock yun...kelangan mo i-downgrade bootloader mo sa 0.98 para ma-unlock. Donwload mo nalang doon sa link na bigay ko kay deadlock sabi nga dont install a foreign rom...pero actually pwede. Kaya lang, yung GPRS settings mo, maiiba kase mapapalitan ng foreign network settings. Pero okay lang yun...you can change and configure the Smart setting after you install the foreign rom. I suggest after you unlock your phone, install the Qtek or i-Mate rom because those rom versions will keep your unlocked phone remain unlocked. Marami na sa atin dito na gumagamit ng Qtek rom...isa na ako. DONT install the SMART 1.50 update if you dont want your phone to get locked again. Kase yung nilabas ng Smart na 1.50 rom, it was programmed to lock your phone again to their network. So better use the Qtek or i-Mate update...search mo nalang
Guest dinoalbert Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 Ganito ginawa ng isang buddy ko na naka Smart 1.50 rom with higher bootloader version: 1. downgraded his bootloader to 0.98 using USBterm, extra 8mb SD card, and someone else' smartphone 2. sim-unlocked his phone using SPVUnlock program 3. downgraded his Smart 1.50 rom to Smart 1.3.7 rom 4. upgraded his Smart 1.3.7 rom to Qtek rom yun lang :wink:
Guest dinoalbert Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 what do you mean Qtek helpfile? What do you need it for? :)
Guest deadlock Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 the dwonloadable qtek helpfile from this thread is blank, i tried downloading it and what get is a blank zip file
Guest dinoalbert Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 the thread I gave you is the page where you can see and download the bootloader 0.98, 0.91 and 0.93 (whx files that you are looking for) attached by me and pzee again just click this --> http://smartphone.modaco.com/viewtopic.php...er=asc&start=60
Guest pyke Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 @midnightman mag downgrade ng ano, rom o bootloader? pag upgrade sa kahit anong rom version or basta magpalit ka ng rom, definitely mabubura lahat ng laman ng IPSM mo. i dont think so, dude. i upgraded from 1.37 to 1.50 but i didnt lose my contacts, calendar notes and applications.nagtaka nga rin ako,eh.
Guest pyke Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 PU#$%na!!ngayon ako nagsisisi kung bakit ako nag upgrade sa 1.50.sa buong buhay ko ng pagiging SMART subscriber, ngayon lang ako nautakan ng SMART.kung bakit kasi nag-upgrade pa, eh nananahimik at matino namang gumagana ang version 1.37 sa SAP ko!ito ang napapala ng hindi marunong makuntento,eh!pasensya na,ha.pinapagalitan ko lang ang sarili ko.. :)
Guest deadlock Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 @dinoalbert what i'm atrying to say is that the qtek step-by-step installation that is on THIS thread is a blank zip file, the topic you are showing to me is the bootloader file and i already have that thanks to you and pzee
Guest dinoalbert Posted September 7, 2003 Report Posted September 7, 2003 hottee, bakit na-simlock uli ang phone mo? kse mag Qtek or i-Mate ka nalang unless gusto mo talaga naka-simlock phone mo :)
Guest gpcarreon (MVP) Posted September 7, 2003 Report Posted September 7, 2003 ...the qtek step-by-step installation that is on THIS thread is a blank zip file... Sorry po ;) 3 times ko cya upload using 3 different browsers pero ayaw nya sa title na 'HOW TO UPGRADE TO QTEK ROM.zip'. Parating invalid archive, tama naman filesize. :shock: So tinanggal ko spaces in between....ngayon OK NA CYA :) Download nyo na mga panyero 8)
