Wireless Modem (GSM) Problems - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

I downloaded Othman's updates (RUU 3.16.52, RSU 3.23.01), onto a UK O2 XDA. Also downloaded IR COMM program from http://www.ircomm2k.de set it to COMM 2 where my IR port connects to. Then created a standard 9600bps modem connecting to IRCOMM's virtual COMM port on COM 7, and set the control flow to none. It seems to connect (yellow light shows on WModem app) but doesn't get any further than that. In the modem's properties I did a dianostics test, here are the results.

Has anybody any ideas?
PS Just in case anybody else is trying to connect to the internet on a Irish Vodafone/Eircell ready-to-go account here is some info:
number:0876202222 (cheaper than landline ISPs)
username:vodafone
password:vodafone
Data type: ISDN
Primary DNS: 213.233.128.1
Secondary DNS: 213.233.128.19
SMTP Server:mail.e-merge.ie

Still can't get it working, but here's a PDF I came across that might work for those that have the latest 02 ROM (which doesn't seem to be downloadable for some reason)

Hi,
Please let me know where to find Othman's updates (RUU 3.16.52, RSU 3.23.01).
Thanks.

Surprise when will you annouce it?!

Hi Markh,
Please, can you assist.
I have a german OS and like to change to english.
I have followed your explanation and get always the error message:
"error 007: no rom image file
Cannot find rom image to upgrade your PocketPC
Please download and try again"
I modified the 007 to 001 with hex edit.

Try following the instructions at http://www.markhorgan.com/qtek-rom-update/
I haven't come across your problem before, the only thing I can think of is that windows might be locking the ROM file (NK.nbf), save the file and close HexEdit before you continue the installation process, or RUU 3.16.52 might be corrupted - try downloading it again.

Hi,
I followed the steps discribed on the link ( above ).
Its always giving me this error.
I thought It might be because I have german OS on and try to upgrade with an english version.
I tried the O2 Dutch 3.15.15 from their webpage and the 3.16.52 from markh.
I cross checked this by loading the german 3.14.16.ger from the german O2 page. That worked fine.

HELP!!! VERY URGENT

hi,
I've XDA I with RUU tmobile 4.0.1and RSU 4.21
I'm trying to return to original o2 rom
I've cooked from rom kitchen t-mobile 2003 ruu rom
When I launch exe file the pc give me this error:
"ERROR: GetDeviceData - An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine.
error getting devicedata"
and then
"ERROR 011: EXECUTE REMOTE COMMUNICATION PROGRAM ERROR. Cannot execute the remote communication program. Please make sure that the USB/Serial cable is properly connected."
I've try to put nb1 file on sd card with image tool but my device has bootloader 5.17 and it doesn't work!
As I've installed t-mobile 4.01, the phone part of the device doesn't work (I've accidentaly swith to 1900, my sim card support only 900/1800 and here in italy there's no 1900 net)
Anyone knows other methods to load ruu from sd or can help me to resolve activesync error?
So whats the reason for you wanting to downgrade, is it because your radio is no longer working?
If thats the case you just need to up/downgrade your radio stack, on
that note I suggest you upgrade to the Qtek 1010 Radio Stack.
The Qtek 1010 Radio Stack Upgrade can be found at:
http://www.carrierdevices.com.au/downloads/asiapacific.htm
Download Radio Upgrade File : RSUv1.15_(GPRS_T32500_ENG).exe
Note: Last time I checked the the above file came with both the ROM and Radio upgrade, so just use the one for the radio.
HTH
I had the same problems you did, without wanting to steal anyone's thunder, my thread here : http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3860 deals with those issues and points you to the threads where easy answers can be found. I also operate off 900/1800 and have the info in that thread on how to change back from 900/1900 to 900/1800. Let us know if there's anything there that gets you stumped.
Don't play with RUU unless someone who knows what they're really talking about advises that you should for good reason.

XDA w/ ppc2002 upgrade request help to 2003

Hi,
This probably the most asked question here yet I have one thing thats different to the others from what I have read.
I live in Australia, my 02 XDA ppc isnt sim locked or anything however my issue is related to the o/s I have ppc2002 I wanted to upgrade to 2003 and found a file for download and am unaware if this file is the correct file to download for upgrade to my XDA?
I also know I need a radiostack which will work on my XDa once it has been updated to 2003.
2003 file @ http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/PPC2003PE.nb1.zip
Radiostack which will work for me?????
Any help would be appreciated aswell as telling me what are the neccessary files on my PC to use to flash the ppc phone edition via my USB cradle also.
Any other info should be available with my profile.
Regards

Hi,
if ur phone works fine in making/receiveing calls, then all u need is a ROM upgrade. goto the kitchen at www.yorch.net and cook a ROM based on 4.00.05 ENG. select the file to be an exe file. download the file to ur PC and connect the xda to the cradle and make sure it's connected to power. run the exe and follow the instructions.
good luck
Hi,
Thanks Biso007 for all your info/help.
I am currently downloading the file that I 'cooked' as I type this out however one thing I was not sure about was in the string section was I to change the string to 4.00.05 as it was set on 3.16 ...
I did change it and its downloading I assume there should not be any issues.
If there is any concerns or if I did the wrong thing by that please inform me... BTW the file was made into an .exe.
Regards
A7MAD
Hi,
I visited www.yorch.net and 'cooked' my own ROM made it into an exe and have it downloaded right here it's a 4.05.00 rom flash but I have to ask what software can I use to flash the unit with because I do not have an SD card so I am stuck using my PC to do the flash, I have the official backup files for my ppc from 02's site so I am ok I guess if all else fails i will flash back to what I am currently using.
I wanted to flash the rom onto my ppc however what software can I use? I tried Microsofts Sync software I have 3.7 but it doesnt allow me to flash as it gives me an error message.
Message says:
"Your Device Information;
PW10A1:001

Your upgraded image info;

Any help would seriously be appreciated, but what is the compatible utility?
Regards

unfortunately this is a known issue with some ROMs that can't accept the exe method. you are stuck with the SD card upgrade.
Will adaptrom not work for this?

Question:Wireless Modem for T-Mobile...modem not found!

Hey everyone,
Ok, I'm having trouble using my XDA as a Wireless Modem. I have already taken the following steps:
1) Setup the modem and connection on my computer (using the many guides found on these forums)
--I used internet2.voicestream.com as an access point...is that correct?
2) Ran the wmodem.exe application and hit start
3) Dialed *99# from my computer via Serial Cable
When I connect it gives me the following error on my Computer:
"Opening port...
Error 633: The modem (or other connecting device) is already in use or is not configured properly."
I know I am using the correct port (COM 1), because Activesyinc recognizes my XDA via serial port.
Obviously the computer is not recognizing my XDA as a modem. Did anyone else have this problem? If someone could please help me it would be GREATLY appreciated!
Ensure ActiveSync is not using the serial port, i.e. close the ActiveSync on your XDA before running WModem, i.e. your ActiveSync on your laptop should show as disconnected.
Here are my config:
(1) From Windows 200 / XP / 2003, create a modem as follows:
Standard 33600 bps Modem (yes don't choose higher rate one)
-- Maximum Port Speed = 115200
-- Extra Initialization commands: AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","INTERNET2.VOICESTREAM.COM"
(this is for US T-Mobile users, other others, change the internet2.voicestream.com to your phone company equivalent)
-- Flow Control: Port Speed=115200, Flow Control= None
(2) Connect your serial cable to your XDA I
(3) Run the Wmodem, and click "start", you have to ensure your phone connection is online to be able to click "start"
(4) Now try to dial from your laptop using the connection created in (1)
username: voicestream
password: (empty)
Dial: *99#
You are on!
Hmm still not working...
Can you check your Diagnostics tab in the modem config and see if it reads:
"Hardware ID mdmgen336"
Also, I am running T-Mobiles release of 4.01.16 ENG. Obviously this did not come with the wmodem.exe application. I just downloaded it off these forums and transfered it. Do you think its possible that the 4.01.16 ENG did not come with the neccessary files to make the XDA a modem? If so, what ROM can I get that has wmodem.exe, or is there a place where I could download some .inf files to make it work?
Appreciate your/anyones help!

This will never work. You can´t get it working, since the wmodem application didn´t work with this ROM version. You should change to ROM 4.01.12 and then try it again....

Alright thanks, I thought it would since the wmodem application ran in 4.01.16
EDIT: Oh one more question...now I know why I have 4.01.16 again. When I go to the kitchen. Which option do I select for T-mobile in the USA? Is it No AutoConfig data? Thanks.

Dear All,
Is it possible to unlock the SIM on universal
Is tit possible to change the language on the phone from french to English
Can you please guide me on how to do the above as I dont speak french
Is it possible to save the current settings on the phone if the above fails
as the operator sayzs that the warrantz on the phone is void if the language is changed or the SIM is unlocked
My current configuration
operatpor 7.113.5.132
Rom version 1.13.51 FRE
Rom Date 22-09-2005
Radio 1.03.00
Protocol Version 42.36.P8
Ext rom 1.13.132 FRE
I can help you change language from french to english.
Doesn't your Universal have a place where you can download the french ROM? If not, it is still possible to backup the french ROM. A little complicated, but i'm sure i can walk you thru the process.
Regarding the unlocking, i don't think it is possible at the moments. The geniuses are working on it but as of now, you can have it unlocked thru your provider. Just pay the fee (which i think is around 20-30€)
Dear Jorgee,
I would appreciatte if you can walk me htrough the language change, I have tried the provider which is orange switherland, that the lock is definite
A Bellah
First step is to tell me which ROM you would like? O2, Qtek, Imate or T-Mobile?
and i assume you would like it in english?
Just tell me what ROM you need and i will walk you thru it
Dear Jorge
My current configuration
operatpor 7.113.5.132
Rom version 1.13.51 FRE
Rom Date 22-09-2005
Radio 1.03.00
Protocol Version 42.36.P8
Ext rom 1.13.132 FRE
and I want to change into english
Which of the following ROM's would you like?
O2
QTEK
IMATE
Take note, flashing the ROM/Changing the language doesnt get rid of the SIM Lock
Dear Jorge,
Which ever you think is best out of all the three you have listed.
ANother question if I may, Would this affect the phone configurations by orange
Thanks

I guess if you want the fastest or newest? The fastest in MY opinion is the QTEK because it has few customizations. The newest I believe is O2 ROM
Regarding Phone configurations of Orange, the configurations are set thru a .CAB file which is stored in Extended ROM. All you have to do before changing ROM is to backup the extended ROM, then Flash the device to english, then run the CAB file that has the Orange customizations.
If you can give me a list of the files in your Extended ROM, i'll do my best to explain what each file does
Dear Jorge,
I guess I will use the same as youy which I thinkl would be the qtek.
Ok where do i get the programme to back upo the extended rom
Thanks
Backing up extended rom, have to install Total Commander. Then in total commander, type \EXTENDED_ROM which will show you the contents of the extended ROM. Just copy to the SD card and save in your computer, that's how you backup extended ROM
For backing up the OS ROM, refer to this thread as it was BUZZ that helped me find out what to do.
Its : http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?op...=view&id=8573&catid=33&limit=15&limitstart=15
Just download the file at the bottom of this page (page 2) then continue on to page 3 and 4 which explains how to do it. Just PM me regarding where you are already and I will walk you thru the rest as I have already done the procedure
Hello Jorgee,
I got to this stage and created the file on the desktop but I tried to run the command in dos but I got an error message

What command did you enter that caused you to get an error message?
go here ftp://xda:xdaftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Universal/Shipped ROMs and download UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe for the English ROM.
are you sure you don't want to backup your ROM first?
Just drop me a message if you get lost.
dos command
i want to back it up first but I am getting the folowing error on the dos command

'pdocread' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Did you install EnableRapi on the PPC first before doing this?
THen you have to disable the USB connect option of ActiveSync,
Then enter Bootloader mode on yor universal,
then connect it to the computer,
then run the pdocread
is this what you did?
no I followed the articel your refered me to, I ran the enable rapi, then connected to the usb and then ran the programme.
I also tryed to download the qtek system but the link you gave me does not let me acess the site
you have to put xda:xda in the link as this is the username and password. Or use an ftp program to access the site, this might be easier
I put it in the bootloader state and still the same message
I put it in the bootloader state and still the same message, but the message on the article you refered me toi says not to do so, I have tried both methods and cantr seem to be able to get it done
Sorry, but i don't know what to say. Are you using the original cable?

need help after probably bad flashing

Hi. I had got T-Mobile MDA with german language. I upgraded it with downloaded file (4.01.16 ENG). After upgraded I can't synchronize my MDA with PC. Normally I can explore what is included in it but I can't upgrade it next tim at all. When I try open exe file in window appear: "ERROR: GetDeviceData - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote
host. error getting devicedata". Then I hope, that I can upgrade it by XDAtools. After few minutes my MDA dont see my SD Card at all? I don't know what should I do ? Help help help !
The reason is your T-Mobile ROM, which prohibits flashing via exe file.
To get rid of this problem you must install ROM other than t-mobile via SD card.
spq: will You be so kind as to take a conversation with me? maybe thrugh a gadu-gadu ?
So ok. My gg number is 2968461. I'll be available c.a. 21:30 GMT+1
