Hi there,
I want to buy a Qtek 9100 (German Version) or a MDA Vario (sold via T-Mobile Germany). But I am unsure which one to choose.
Obviously I want to get rid of the 3rd party apps within the Extended ROM, like Intellidialer, Voice Dial, etc.
Is there a detailed list of the MDA Vario German (!) available, which explains the different modules / CAB files?
The reason I prefer the MDA Vario and to delete the 3rd party apps, is because of the firmware support. At least T-Mobile is offering sometimes firmware upgrades (happend to my MDA Compact) several times, instead of Qtek, where I can't find anything like that, which I found a little bit disappointing.
Or is Qtek offering upgrades (if necessary) as well somewhere???
Thanks in advance!

hi guys,
i have a rather simple question but - due to my limited technical understanding - havent been able to find a simple answer on this forum ;-)
i have a t-mobile mda which i am running with a O2 sim. Now the software that came with it does not offer a key function which i would like to have, being an O2 user: the indicator that shows me if i am in my O2 home zone or not. the latest o2 software update adds that functionality, but i am not sure if i can install it on my mda.
is there a reasonable safe & simple way to flash my mda with the new xda rom?
would it be a good idea just to run the special edition rom exe-file?
thanks for answering newbie questions!!!
woody
i forgot to mention: my location is germany..guess this matters
OK, special edition works fine
No O2 genion home zone indicator either however. Is it save to flash to the mda with the latest original xda rom (3.19.01)...cause this would be my next step
thanks,
woody
I was a bit angry today to find out that T-Mobile UK won't be releasing the Exchange Messaging Feature Pack and Bluetooth 2 update until June!!!
I know I can flash my Wizard with another ROM, but I want to know exactly which one to use that is the most newest and stable available. I don't like the T-Mobile customisation very much so I'd like to get rid of it. Also, how would I restore the MMS settings for example? I can easily input the operator setttings if necessary or will I need to use an actual program.
T-Mobile have also withdrawn the last update from their website citing that it had faults. I'm using the original ROM.
Thanks for your time.
i also got the Vario with the 2.08 Rom, works very stable on my device
Is that a T-Mobile ROM? I want to use one of the Qtek ones I think so I get push email. Can anyone advise? My device is unlocked using the tool and CID unlocked but I'm not sure what that is!
Hi guys.
I'm new here, but that won't matter.
I'm new to this entire phone area. I ordered a Cingular 8125, and is due on Monday. I've been using those "free with contract" phones for a while now, and I thought I would like a change in pace.
But the problem is, I know nothing at all about the Cingular 8125, so I have a few questions.
I have a Cingular SIM, as I am a customer of Cingular, but I'm buying the phone seperately, so do I have to get it unlocked?
What are some applications to use on it?
What is all of this talk about AKU2 i-mate, etc about?
And anything important you would like me to know...
Thanks guys, I appreciate it. ^_^
you dont need it unlocked if you use a cingular sim. They won't give it to you unlocked, but you can use a program called lokiwiz or awizard to do it if you want to. search the forums for downloads.
Aku2 is an update that adds push e-mail and stereo bluetooth support. imate is just the name of a company that rebrands these phones.
applications you need: omapclock, wm5newmenu, smartskey, RegistryWizard and Total commander
i also suggest a today screen shortcut launcher and a program that makes the X button actually close programs instead of minimize them. i use spb pocket plus for this, but there are free alternatives.
Opera has a great internet browser for ppc and an excellent java based mini version. I suggest both of those
Get TCPMP for movies and I like Mortplayer for mp3's
Thanks.
Where can I find these programs?
google.com, your local pirate for the rest
Thanks ^_^
Also, which ROM update should I use? I see a lot after I searched..
I just upgraded from Tmobile MDA to the latest ROM, and my problems have all but vanished. Radio now picks up Wifi much quicker etc:
K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020710_ship.zip
Thanks, does it matter which model you have? Cingular 8125, T-Mobile MDA, etc?
Pondering the leap myself...

Did you have problems with the settings or anything? Once you managed the install, how complicated was it? Did you edit the extended ROM? How much storage did you have after the install?
Hi,
i have a wizard with the rom Qtek 1.1.7.5
i'm thinking about upgrading it, but i'd like to know what rom do you advise to use. i'm mainly interested in performance and of course some new features why not?!
most of all i'd like everything to work properly
another subject: i'm also thinking of overclocking it to use some programs like tomtom and skype, what is the program you advise me to use in this fashion, ie, only activate overclock when this programs are run? and what is the speed in MHz i should use?
Thanks in advance
another question
Sorry i forgot to ask one thing:
since i have a Qtek, will i be able to load, for example, a IMate rom?
yes, you can load an iMate K-Jam rom onto a Qtek 9100. They are the same internal hardware-wise, it's only the software customizations that are different.
Good day
is it possible to change my qtek s100 - O2 ?
Can you give me a piece of advice..im just a new user of pocket pc phone
tnx...

From what I understand from your post is that you want to change your ROM from Qtek to O2, right? Yes, its possible. There are tons of information in the Magician Upgrading forum. Being a newbie, I suggest that you read through all the related threads before jumping into upgrading unless you are quite knowledgable in these things.
Since you are living in the Philippines, I don't see the need for you to change to O2's ROM (O2 is one of the providers in Europe) since the providers there are Globe, Smart, and Sun. This has been said many times - the Magician's ROM is composed of 3 parts, the OS ROM, Extended ROM, and Radio ROM. The OS and Radio ROMs are exactly the same for all variations/brands/providers of the Magician (brands/providers = Qtek, iMate, O2, T-mobile, Dopod, etc.). The Extended ROM contains specific modifications made by each brand/provider, and aside from the standard programs like CallerID, PhonePad, SmartDialing, it mostly contains auto configuration software for SMS, MMS, GPRS, and maybe even Email.
What you should do, like most of us did, is to apply the BigStorage ROM and then take what ever Extended ROM software you like from different brands. There are also Extended ROM auto configuration files for Globe, Smart or Sun. All this software can be found in the ftp of this forum.
Again, please read all related topics, make a backup of your data and current ROM before doing any upgrades.
Good luck, kabayan (as it is said in your language).
tnx kababayan.....
I will just try to have the Extended ROM for my phone..
I wish I can Make it.... :lol:
again tnx
