Dead Q9090 - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Hi
My Qtek 9090 is stuck with a USB or SERIAL SCREEN... what can I do?
PLEASE HELP !

Hmmm
Commit Hara kiri?

almost
No really
HELPPPPPPPPPPPP
I got this device in Fr and wanted to witch to UK, since I cannot stand FR PPC
I tired several things founded here but I don't know where to really start neither what to take or not

What were you doing that got in this state? Pushing buttons, trying to update the ROM,...?
If you didn't do anything then try a hard reset (power and softreset button). If the doesn't work and you didn't do anything else then send it back to the place you ordered it from.
If you were trying to update a ROM it may be that you were connected to a USB hub and the update failed.

Well to be honest with you, I received for gift a Qtek 9090 it was given to me with a BT GPS, all was in French, and even if I am French I cannot stand French OS, translation are always horribly done.
So I DL a T-Mobile ROM, BUT I made the mistake to use en XDAII ROM, the Upgrade went well, I reboot the XDA III and I was in the USB/Serial Mode.
I know very well to hqndle such things on iPAQ, I often Swap Japanese to English ROM, but on the 9090 I really don t know how to do. I looked qround on the forum I tried severql stuff, but with no result. Lately I got the COUNTRY CODE error when I tired to restore the rom (I looked at the GERMAN to ENGLISH) thread.
So really I would love to fix this soon.
Once again HELP !

What happens when you do a hard reset (power button held while doing pushing 'reset' with the sylus (pen)?

I'm thinking that the only way your going to recover is by loading the image off of an SD card from the Bootloader window, I'm not sure how to this though.

Well it is indeed the only thing which cqn help me here, but tomorrow I am flying back to Tokyo and I will NEVER find a QTEK in Japan.
I could dump the empty or fake rom from my dead 9090 to an SD using tty, thanks to the cmd d2s and could just try to recover it with the SD, the process work fine but well uploading a fake or empty rom won t help.
I could also find on this forum FTP some ROM, but no way to upload them to my Qtek or even no solution to chqnge the Counrty ID stuff.
There is another way to solve this stuff is to use TTY with a lnb nk.nb0 like cmd from a modified ROM but once again no info on how to change the languqge ROM info.
The XDA ROM Tool stuff is nice well done but rely too much on ActiveSync. Before trying to chqnge my ROM I saved it using this soft but once your 9090 stuck to the SERIAL/USB Screen it become useless since it is using ActiveSync.
No one here got an idea ? How to solve this matter ???

:? so no hope ?

So I continue my little investigation... and feel so lonely anyway whatever I write for the language I got this

questions
why the D2S cmd work but not the S2D?
why lnb neither h nor ? is not allowed ?

How to get into Bootloader

Hi there!
What key combination gets me into the bootloader?
I've been wondering and searching for a way to upgrade my MDA pro rom. (searching for hours on xda, google and a lot of other specialized sites. Turned out to be dead ends! FRUSTRATING!
I'va had a Qtek S100 before. There was a way to get into the bootloader. And there is a way into the bootloader for the Universal to! YES!
But when i try to push the buttons
on/of
Camera
reset button
i cant get in!
button 1 and 2
reset
the same problem.
I get as far as the pres 0 or X for factory default and exit.
Who can help me? I have the no_id upgrade utility and the ROM ready.
Was there a UUL file which i had to edit before using this upgrade method?
I hope there wil be a good tutorial for this just like the one i have used to upgrade my S100 to an orange rom. (worked great!)
Can anyone help me please
Its BACKLIGHT BUTTON + POWER BUTTON + RESET HOLE
It's better to do this without the SIM and Memory Card connected. Disconnect also the USB Sync Cable.
After entering bootloader, you will see SERIAL written on the screen but the screen has no backlight so you have to look hard.
Then when you plug the Sync Cable, the SERIAL will change to USB then you can run the NoID to update.
Remember the NoID has to be run twice in a row as the first time usually solicits an ID Country error
It Works
Thanks Jorge!
Just those keystrokes helped me a lot. It works just fine and it took me only one run to Initiate the upgrading.
Thanks a lot!
I followed your advice and removed the SD and the phone card.
Yes! now i can experiment with these ROMS.
First Jasjar, later O2 and hoping for the best roms with the best programs.(hoping to find a messenger cab file in the jasjar rom)
As I am planning to do the same, Try all the variants of the ROM's, could you inform me what are the good and bad points of all the different ROM's you used and which did you decide to use finally.
Thanks
HELP !!!!
I turn on my Qtek 9000 and i see SERIAL written and the screen but the screen has no backlight.
How can I boot my Qtek 9000 again without this SERIAL mode ????
Best Regards
Hi Ecraseur,
if You did not do anything else (no upgrading), try ColdReset : Power-switch + Reset hole.

If we can boot from Serial/USB is it possible to boot from Mini SD? I'm toying with the idea that by using a Linux Live Disk content on a Mini SD it may be possible to boot into a virtual Linux environment? I know it's going to be uber slow and may not even work but I thought it may be worth a look?
If a Mini SD boot isn't possible do you think it'd work to have one of the smaller USB bootable Linux flavours as the USB boot for the HTC Wizard etc?

O2 Orbit German to english

Hello friends,
I am not new but this is my first thread.
I have just bought a sim-free O2 Orbit from germany and it is working fine.
How can I turn the OS language into english? and I also get a failure connection to the internet since I arrived home in australia. it is 0x8007278.
Please the experts any advice is appreciated. thanks for sharing the science.
I was in the exact situation as you, this is how you change your ROM to English.
Get this program called USPL, it was created by a member of this bard called Bepe. Look on the first post for the program AND the instructions...read them.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
What this program does is it unlocks the phones carrier lock so that it will take a ROM that is not OEM.
Once you have this, look for the ROM you want to run, I can personally recommend Bepes WM6 or WM6 Black and Blue v3.
Bepes rom...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=309702
PDA Viet WM6 ROM (super freaking cool, way better than I thought it would be)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314568
Once you have these two things, put them all on the desktop for easy access, then run the USPL according to the instructions. You MUST have Active Sync installed, running and sync'd with your phone (plus its a great idea t have all your contacts backed up with Outlook). Once the USPL program has completed its process and the phone has restarted, you can then load any ROM you want. Simply plug in your phone via USB to your computer, then run the Rom Upgrade Utility that installs on your desktop when you download the ROM. It will show a progress bar, once you make it past 3 or 4 percent you know you are in the clear and the ROM will load right.
I cannot stress enough the importance of running USPL, if you dont you run an almost guaranteed risk of turning your phone into a cool looking paper weight.
If you follow these instructions, read a little in the Upgrading and the WM6 sections of this board, you will have an English phone in your hands by the time you go to bed tonight. Good luck and feel free to PM me if you need and help.
Oh and PS - For the data, once you have changed you ROM to English, you need to either find the settings or the CAB file for your data connection. Most of the time these can be found on your service provenders site, if not, run a search of this bard, almost anything you need - world wide - is on here somewhere.
THANK YOU Itschcase. your responce was brilliantly quick.
I was trying since yesterday. read most of the eplanatory threads. tried not to bother you again. but I am stuck at the USPL. after fist step the screen goes black or grey and the activeSync disconnects and it remains like that. if I continue the process nothing happened if I soft reset then continue I get error 270 "image file corrupted" and the pda reboots automatically and goes back to its state. tried 10 times. reinstalled my xp after formatting the computer. tried on my other computer vista . still no change.
any ideas please

Ok, let me see if i understand u correctly, your specs give me no new questions they look ok. U have WM5 and want to run a program (from your work) which needs WM6 (wont run on WM5). HTC told you about the official WM6 update. This wont flash as activesync crashes, right?
With an official Rom you will not need to unlock the CID/SPL with USPL. But this goes only when you stick to your current language. i.e. a german WM5 is not allowed to be flashed into english. To do this you will need to USPL-unlock it 1st.
If the language is the same, it should work. Best is to do a hard reset 1st (2 soft buttons and soft reset, wait and press green/send.) Afterwards hook it on the PC (activesync want to start a newe partnership, click cancel, so u will be connected as guest).
Start the rom upgrade. Activesync should close and bootloader on the ppc will be started. This is a screen with many colours/stripes, which is normal but looks very bad and different from normal bootup.
Then the flashing will start, the screen on the ppc will turn white/grey and a scale will show you the percentage of the flashingprocess (similar to the screen of the pc). Wait patentiently and do not toch the ppc or disconnect (or expect a bricked device).
At the end, the ppc will reboot and take a while (longer then normal bootup) to initiate the boot for the 1st time.
If this wont work, then try to extract the upload file, put the ppc in boatloader mode, connect to pc and start the romupdateutility.exe directly.
Good Luck!
hi,
i've flashed my HTC P3300 and it was done successfully (using USPL) but the language was Spanish, i searched a lot how to change it to english since i dont understand a word of it.
through one of the forums, i was told to set the SysLang = 1032 in registry to get the english language, i done so, now, the phone is stuck in Welcome (WM6.1) screen and nothing is happening, not even responding to power key.
I tried hard reset, it doesn't work, i tried entering to bootloader, it also doesn't work, also, i am not able to connect it to PC since i guess its not completed up.
Just got stuck with a brick, can you help please. Really needed!!!!!!
Thanks
Maybe flashing ROM from memory card may help. Search Artemis wiki for micro card ROM flashing.
Hello, I guess I'm having the same problem...tried to flash but something went wong and now I have my htc p3300 blocked with the multicolor screen. It does not work, so I don't understand how I could start flashing rom by memory card. Could you be a little bit more detailed? Thanks in advance

Money ahead: Need serious help with my hx2000 / hx2490

Hi there!
I am in serious need of help with my iPAQ hx2490. Yesterday, I tried to do the
official HP ROM Update. Everything went well, up to about a point when the RUU told me that there is a connection problem with my device.
The update went to just about half way through, and I didn't touch anything, I just left the device in it's cradle.
Anyway, my problem now is, that the device won't start the OS, I can't get past the HP welcome screen. The loading bar fires up, and completes it's way to the right, but after that: NOTHING!
I have tried soft, hard and clean reset, without any help. When I do a clean reset, the display shows "Formattin PS", and the loading bar reaches the right. But after that: NOTHING again!
I tried flashing everything again, from WM 2005 first and second edition, even WM 2003. The result is always the same.
I can get it into Pre-Bootloader, normal E-Bootloader. I do get a "USB Connected" message, and I do get the following "USB" message on the screen.
Now here's the odd thing (and I do hope that all you experts are dying to solve this mystery!): when I do the update again, at either 84,1% or sometimes 85,1%, the iPAQ shuts down, and starts again. But this doesn't stop the RUU from continuing!!
I've tried everything I can, I read all the infos in the forums concerning iPAQ problems, but they're mostly concerning entering bootloader, which is NOT my problem.
Money ahead: I'll donate 10€ to the person who is able to solve this riddle!!
The money can go to either this website or the person's own PayPal account.
oh I forgot: I did try ChrisMRulz bootloader method, but I wouldn't work for me. I managed as far as the MTTY program firing up, and I do get a WCEUSB prompt, but can't enter any commands, and the nbf file doesn't get uploaded!
PROBLEM SOLVED!! Sorry.....
Can you tell us how?
Maybe it will be helpful for others that have similar problems in future.
Sure, I can do that:
I managed to flash the official International English ROM Update to my german hx2490 iPAQ. I just used the trick that you have to start the correct HPRUU.exe for your country-specific device, but just before you hit the last "Update" button, you change the .nbf file with the one you want to flash.
But you have to rename it to according filename the HPRUU.exe originally loaded,
if you don't rename it, the update utility will crash.
By doing so, I was able to flash the above mentioned ROM to my device, and after that I just flashed my country-specific ROM.
Now I'm back and running WM5.
If further explanation is needed, I'll gladly help out someone with the same problem.

Qtek 9090 wont upgrade

Hi i am new on this forum ,i have a qtek 9090 unlocked bought on ebay
it runs windows 2003 and when i try to upgrade to wm6 ,the process starts and and it goes into USB V2.08 and pc makes a usb has been removed sound and the installer gives me a error msg
ERROR 120:COUNTRY ID: ERROR
and when i do a soft reset it comes up with a new installtion of (wm2003 which i hate)
this is getting to my head as i need to upgrade my PDA
can anyone help me
send me some links with the correct software and stuff please
you need to put the device in bootloader mode before connecting it to the pc by pressing reset+power+record and use the MAupgradeut_noID instead of the BAupgradeut to upgrade your device. if you don't have the MAupgrade tool present, you can download it from this post of mine:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3768875&postcount=3
by doing these 2 points, you can avoid all error 101, 110 and 120
windows 6 for qtek 9090
does anyone have links to the new wm6 for qtek 9090
try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=482997
No service
upgrade done and the phone worked for about 3 days now is says no service and wont pick a network
first make sure you didn't soft-reset the device the wrong way, meaning restarting the device by releasing the battery lock, because restarting it like that generally starts the device w/o radio, meaning no phone function. to avoid that, simply soft reset again by pressing the actual hardware reset pin.
in second thought, you might wanna post the values shown in the boot screen, maybe another radio rom might do the trick.
if neither of that worked, maybe you should try another sim card or a different location for testing network coverage just to figure out, if it might have something to do with a network failure.
if still however nothing worked, which i wouldn't hope, it still could be a bug with the particular rom and you might try another rom.
and at last, if that didn't help, you might have a broken radio receiver and as a harware fault would require you to repair or replace the device, but that is rather unlikely, so you are probably lucky and can fix it yourself.
please post back if and when you figured out, what the problem was, so we can all profit and learn off it.
with best regards,
Chef_Tony
