UAE: Best Radio version?

First of all, I'd like to thank everyone who posts to this forum - I've been reading it for a month or so now and am constantly impressed with the quality of the knowledge here, especially the developers...
I have a QTEK 1010 bought here in Dubai, UAE, with the following device info:
ROM version: 4.00.01 ENG
ROM date: 05/16/03
Radio version: 3.23.01
Protocol version: 32S54
I have found that browsing using IE feels slower, and have the feeling that this version of the ROM does not work well with the radio version. Does anyone reading this forum live in the UAE? I'd like to upgrade the Radio, but need to know which version works best with Etisalat (our Telco).
Any comments much appreciated!
Thanks, Doms...
P.S. I'm going to upgrade the ROM to 4.00.05 when I get the opportunity

hi, i am from dubai and i am using 4.00.1 from t-mobile and 4.21 from o2, so far everything fine just when i reset the t-mobile logo appears.
do you have bluetooth option in that version and your version was already installed or you upgraded yourself?

Use the o2 Radio Version 4.21 it will work fine...

Thanks for the responses guys. Does this new radio version provide any benefits over the one I have?

1) The QTEK does not support Bluetooth, and there is no way to make it work on a QTEK either.
2) There is no Bluetooth option in any of my menus or settings (I would expect this as my device does not support Bluetooth). Windows PPC2003 is supposed to be able to support Bluetooth, however: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/products/pocketpc/about/2003/bluetooth.mspx
3) I upgraded to the 4.00.05 version of Windows PPC2003 myself using Jeff's ROM Kitchen (thanks Jeff!) http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/ROMkitchen/

Hi, Once i had 4.00.01 and in connection setting i had Bluetooth option but ofcourse it was not working, the other thing is do you know any camera work with SD port of Qtek? i mean something availble in the market.
4.21 is more stable i think.
cheers,

I had some problems when making calls on my QTEK yesterday. While in a voice conversation audible clicking noises can be heard and after about 1 minute of conversation the quality of the call deteriorates until the other party cannot hear me. I'll try upgrading the radio...
I don't know about the camera support using the SD slot in the QTEK. My first instinct would be to say no, it's not possible, but I can't confirm that...

I bought a Qtek 1010 in Dubai Duty Free the other week. I've since upgraded the ROM using ROMkitchen and am delighted with it. One thing I did notice though is that the speakerphone functionality (claimed in the Qtek handbook) doesn't seem to work. I didn't try it before I upgraded so can someone tell me if it works with the native UAE ROM code, and if so does anyone have any idea how I could get it working again?

I own a QTEK in the UAE and here is my share to those asking about OS and Radio updates here:
I upgraded from
ROM version: SER 1.2
Radio version: 3.23.01
To
ROM version: 4.00.10 ENG (T.Mobile Test)
Radio version: 4.21.00 (O2 UK)
Everyting seems to work fine apart from 2 minor issues so far:
Make sure you set your band to 900Europe as the default is 1900North America in phone/tools/options
The signal fades out sometimes but doznt affect the reception
No G signal but GPRS is OK.
GPRS stays connected; have to turn phone off and on to disconnect.
Advice:
Read a lot before you upgrade. This forum has a wealth of information.
Cheers

Phone side of my XDA has mind of its own. Please help!!!!

I have problems with the phone side of my XDA.
It keeps turning off by itself every 20 or so minutes.
I have upgraded to
ROM 4.21.00 ENG
Radio 4.21.00
Protocol 32S54
Still no changes. PDA worksfine but phone still turns off by itself.
Any sugestions please.
Thanks

what's your device type ... PW10A or B (rear sticker) ? and what's the band width of your network ?
also, does the phone work fine before turning off ?
did u upgrade the RSU or the ROM only and where/how did u do the upgrade ?

It's PD10A1 originaly on O2
The phone works fine while is on.
I upgraded via ActiveSync
First the ROM and than the RSU
Both upgrades successful
Did the same before the upgrade while using Developers special ROM.
I tried all diferent options in phone setup but no change.
Any Sugestions

this may or may not be help full but when I upgraded my radio stack on the o2 XDA 2 with the I-Mate Radio Stack, OS and Ex Rom it worked fine, however when I changed the Ex Rom with the O2 Ex Rom the phone stopped working.
The work around can be seen in this forum but I cant find it at the moment. Hope this helps?

No Notification problem

Hi friends.Just got a new wizard for myself few days back I am sorry if this has already been covered.I have tried to search but with no luck at all.
I am facing a strange problem ever since i got the phone.The problem is that when someones sends an sms to me,i receive no notification on my phone.The sender gets a delivery report for the sms but I cannot see the sms on the phone.There is neither any notification nor is it visible in inbox.But this problem is only intermittent i.e it happens only some times.At other times,everything works as it should.This issue also happens at times when someone calls me.The phone rings at their end but i see no notification/no missed call..nothing..
Will updating Radio version help ?
Currently using:
ROM Version 2.16.9.1 WWE
Radio Version: 02.07.10
IPL: 2.16
SPL: 2.16
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance

Upgraded to T-Mobile 2.26 with radio 2.25.11!! But Still no luck !! Anyone please ?

To me, that sounds more like a network problem than a device problem, especially since it's intermittent. You should probably call and report the problem to your service provider and see what they have to say.

The radio version seems .. not too good. What ROM are you using? try using an official ROM? Try using my version of Radio.

Exactly what i thought! I am using T-Mobile 2.26 currently with radio 2.25.11!! Just found out that i am not the only one facing the issue..Read a few threads..The next thing i am going to try is 2.19.11 Radio!!
Will report back with the result...Thanks anyways guys

Tried T-Mobile 2.19.11 radio rom along with both Black Diamond 2.0 (WM6) as well as AKU 3.3 (Farias WM5).Missed calls and smses on both Anything else to try ?

I have tried almost every possible radio rom! Could it be that my radio hardware is faulty ? Please help me..This problem is driving me nuts!!

Sorry for bumping such an old thread. Just wanted to say that I changed my sim-card and miraculously, the problem disappeared. Just posted so that it can help someone with a similar issue

Upgrading Radio

I am currently running radio version 1.46.30.11. I have always had problems with calls not coming through to my phone or outgoing calls connecting and texts getting delayed, if I use another phone these problems disappear so I know its this handset.
I am wondering if upgrading the radio version would help? IO have had a search around on the trinity forums and there doesn't seem to be a lot of chat about it. How do I go about upgrading? Do I have to flash my phone with a ROM which has the newer radio contained?
Its originally an Orange SPV M700 which was running official ROMs until I took the plunge and put Mary on a few days ago but the problems still occur.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

normaly a radio upgrade is just like a normal upgrade
if the radio nbf is present it's inlcuded if not it's not
if the only nbf present is the radio one only the radio is upgraded

Do you think upgrading the radio ROM would help? Do you know where I can find just the radio ROM for version 1.50.08.11?
Thanks for the help.

No GSM if 'network type' set on Auto

Hello, yesterday I finally flashed my ROM after a long wait and a lot of frustrations with the old, standard, ROM. But now I have a problem with it...
I can't call or being called if i have a 3G connection! If I sellect GSM in network type instead of Auto, then calling is no problem anymore.
But this mean that I lost the high speed internet...
Did I do something wrong?!
I have upgraded to WM 6.1 by Bepe and Radio 1.64.08.21. I also tried out Radio 1.58.21.23. But that didn't changed anything.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Fabian, you can try the Murata Radio version.

I have the same problem. I tried Murta Radio and all other available Radio ROMs with no help. Also I tried to go back to Original ROM but still the problem exist. Any help?

Send back to assistence!
I tried all kinds of radio but no luck! Read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=391741 After restoring original rom and radio I send to HTC for repair and after ten days my polaris come back full working. After two days another time this problem on 3g H band! This time an hard reset worked to restore 3g-H functionality.
Now my polaris have radio 1.58.25.28 and p 25.69.30.05H and d 1.40.00.00. Reflecting well on the situation that create the problem I remember before the two crashes I used gps skinner. I think if you have used same soft or another soft gps related, the gps or the soft could be the guilty! Sorry for my english...

is 1.58.25.28 the newest official radio rom for cruise?
thx

Radio
I don't know if it's teh newest, I know only that in the radio thread I don't see it.
Ciao

would you be able to upload it online?
thx
