There is a new ROM available for the Qtek 8500 (distributed by Dangaard)!!!
ROM 1.02.251.1 -> 3.06.251.1
Radio Version 4.1.13.17_02.32.31 -> 4.1.13.28_02.67.30
Have installed this to my CID unlocked 8500 just fine. Not noticed any thing new and wonderful.
Only change that is notable is the date format on the external display that now does DD/MM/YYYY (Europe).
you dont need perrmission, just use xda as login info
Ok the rom is now in the Uploads/Star Trek directory of the FTP.

where is the cid unlock
There is no free way of CID unlocking the 8500.
http://www.imei-check.co.uk/f600unlock.php is the only place to get it done at the moment, costs £20 (28.00 EUR or 38.00 USD), take 5 minutes unlocks the SIM lock and CID locks.
I got a QTEK 8500 Bought in The Netherlands... Will it install ???
If its CID unlocked you can install this rom, if not you can't.
Just try, the worst that can happen is a vendor id error !
Great ROM
Works very well on my QTEK 8500

No issues with missing calls?
I believe the issue with missing calls was a US one and not a worldwide one. This rom may or may not help, you can only but try.
Never had an issue with missed calls in UK with any on the Roms I tested (qtek, I-mate, Dopod or CWS).

Strange, I have just picked up a new Qtek 8500 here in denmark and have had no luck upgrading it. Claims my vendor ID is wrong, but it's a qtek branded phone.
RpR, so? They are all vendor locked. Yours is locked to Qtek.

cin unlock on you wait
-> RpR
There are two major distributors of Qtek/HTC in europe; Dangaard and Brightpoint.
If your Qtek 8500 is from Telia, like mine is, then the distributor is Brightpoint, and you cannot use the rom uploaded here without having your 8500 CID unlocked.
Did you try to register with your IMEI on qtek.dk, which is Dangaards site?
If you cannot register on qtek.dk, then your 8500 is most likely from Brightpoint, who also has a site, www.myqtek.com, where you should be able to register then.
However there is no new rom for the 8500 available on www.myqtek.com yet.
Here's an updated direct link for those of you not happy browsing the local ftp server ftp://xda:[email protected]_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship.exe. You know who you are...

Hi. I'm very new to the XDA II, just received mine this morning, previously had an SPV E200. I've just tried to register on myxda.com so that I could download the rom updates but it keeps saying I am enetering an invalid IMEI number and therefore I can't register to gain access to the site. Is there any other way of getting the ROM updates and also which is the best Rom to update too. I am wanting to unlock the phone to all netwroks and use with a bluetooth headset and bluetooth gps receiver.
Thanks In Adavnce
P.S. Im in the UK and on the O2 network
The official O2 Rom update can be found at the developers Source O2 site:
http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/XdaIIRom.htm
The current version is 1.60.50
I would guess that this is the version you probably have already installed.
There are a number of unofficial ROM updates which could be installed on your XDAII, these can be found searching this forum. The latest ROM version which you could install is the i-Mate 1.72.00.
Before attempting to install any new version I would suggest that you read the following post by dcs which hopefully would help you avoid the common pitfalls of upgrading:

The attached home cooked Extended Rom 1.72.800 has been build for the following:
Device: XDAII
Operator: O2
Language: WWE
Network: Orange
I have the Orange SPV M3100 and was wondering when (and if) they release a ROM upgrade, where will it be posted?
O2, TMobile and Voda all have download pages for various things, but Ornage don't seem to do this.
Now come on. Please put a ? on the end of your subject! I nearly wet myself when I saw your post, thinking that they'd pulled their fingers out and posted a new ROM :wink:
When they do post it, it will be at
http://www.business.orange.co.uk/se...4132772045&extarg1=Phone&t=SMEDeviceDownloads
LOL Sorry never thought of that :lol:
That's FUNNY!
I followed the link above to the Orange page about the M3100. It says that standby time is 6 days! ROFL!
I get about 1 day out of mine - and I hardly make any calls!
Being a little inaccurate - ok. Getting 18% of "official" figure - that's just plain old BS...
Have heard Orange won't be releasing an update until January so don't get your hopes up for one soon.

The link you provide doesn't have their first and only ROM. Does anyone have it. I need it very badly since I want to play with upgrading and using hard spl. I'm afraid if I brick it again while upgrading I'll have a chance to flash the original ROM.
Does anyone know when they will have an upgrade? Will they ever???????

I was waiting for 6 months. Gave up in the end and just took the cover and screen off my bricked SPV and put it on a knackered Vario ii.
I'm not sure what Orange's thinking will be with updating this ROM - if they start selling SPVs with Windows Mobile 6 they may just not bother releasing an Updated ROM at all (unless the need arises to release a newer ROM for handsets pre-installed with WM6 - in which case I doubt the older WM5 handsets will be supported by such an upgrade due to licensing issues).
Much as I would've liked to find a ROM update I really don't think they'll bother: there are no real issues with the original ROM (at least I never came across any).
I Cooked A WM6 Orange Ron Using Bepes Kitchen. It Has All Of The Orange Settings Installed, But It's WM6. Use The UK Orange Package Posted In Bepes Thread.

will that work?
Orange id needs to be 001 not 008 otherwise it'll say invalid vendor ID.
I've the same problem from November 2006 !!!!!! Please a rom with 001 cid !!!! Thanks from Italy
How does your cooked ROM perform? Does it have all the Orange settings for GPRS/MMS etc? Was thinking of cooking it as although I currently use WMXL, I would really like the Orange settings built in.

Bebes thread has a striped ROM(operator settings only I think). What I'm after is a complete shipped ROM for just in case I brick it again.
My intention is to keep the bootloader to 1.04 and use Hard-Spl. Then I'm able to upgrade to anything without worries.
Ok, Well The Cooked WM6 Rom Works Fine, @findus Yes All The Orange Settings Are Included, No Problems As Of Yet.
@sniper258 I Also Recompiled The Original Orange UK Rom From A Dump Someone Had Made, It Is The Original OS That Is Supplied With Your Orange SPV M3100. Search For Rom Reconstruction And You'll Find It.
Cheers
@sniper258 From The Sounds Of It You Still Have The Original Rom Installed, Could You Tell Me What Radio Rom It Ships With Originally So I Can Create A Proper Original Rom That Includes The Same IPL,SPL,OS And Radio.
IPL - 1.01
SPL - 1.04
OS - Orange UK 001
Radio - ??
Just A Quick Check You Are From The UK Yes?
Cheers
As stated the cooked rom as above does add all of the settings but the battery icon on the top bar does not work, after install it stays as the clock.
Changing the registry to show the via ms shell does not work either as the battery icon does appear but does not function.
@the.drone
Is This The WM6 ROM? I Didn't Know That Was The Case, I Use SPB File Explorer Which Uses A Today Plugin Whos Battery Meter Works. But I Can See How Annoying That Would Be.

this is on either the aku3.3 or wm6 roms, have been trying to find a fix for the past few weeks.

A new english ROM for the Hermes has been uploaded to XDA-Developers ftp:
version: 1.21.116.4
radio: 1.05.02.00
CID: T-MOB007
BootLoader: 1.06
language: WWE
Download link and ROM details posted on the wiki shipped complete updates page.
ruu_hermes_tmhu_1.21.116.4_1.05.02.00_wwe_ship.exe
Please note this is from T-Mobile Hungary (CID T-MOB007) and not from T-Mobile UK, and it has bootloader 1.06 on it.
Thanks to the person who uploaded it!
Enjoy!
Hungarian ROM in the UK
Bought my vario 2 on e-bay and it did not come with a CD I have called up T-mobile and they wont give me one. When I switch on my phone it says "test only not for sale"...I basically looking to reinstall the t-mobile uk rom hoping that it will removed this message but can not find it anywhere. Is this Hungarian ROM going to work on a uk phone ? Are the GPRS & 3G settings the same ?
I am clueless any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
I guess you got a preproduction hermes version with a super cid and 300mhz processor...just look in the hermes wifi in preproduction section...and you will get all of ur answer....
Hi,
Has anyone tried to install this ROM yet? Is it in English?
Thanks
Msuk
Yea did someone already test this ROM ??
It should be in English, given that it has WWE in its title.
Very interesting. The very first T-Mobile Hungary ROM that has ever hit the internets.
(T-Mo Hu never releases ROMs... if you want an upgrade, you have to take it to the service and let them do it... they still sell their Wizards with AKU 1.1.1 ROMs)
Update works
Updated my Dutch T-Mobile MDA Vario II (2).
Took some time, first made Super CID and SIM lock free.
After upgrade the regional settings are indeed Hungarian but the ROM itself is English.
Thanks Y'all!
I've just updated my (I think is the right term) rom using
RUU_HERMES_HTC_WWE_1[1].35.255.2_1.35.255.102_1.08.00.10_SHIP.
Now the installation was fine but some of the original setting on the t-mobile rom are missing, like the quick launch 'running program' button on the screen, the 3g connection symbol as well as a few quick launch icon that use to be at the top of the main screen ' web & walk , contacts, notes. These have all disappeared, is there a way of getting the t-mobile vario 2 setting back or at least a way of configuring the keys to how it was with t-mobile. I think what i've currently got is the HTC original rom hence the HTC logo when I now turn the phone on.
just wondered how this rom compares to "HTC South Africa Version: 1.35.255.2" ??

Hi
I have touch cruise 09 with the following ROM information.
ROM version: 1.10.707.3 (41889).
I purchased this device from Hong Kong but I wanted to know if this is a UK ROM (which I doubt it is) or a chinese one. Is their any way of finding that information out? Eventually I want to update the ROM to chinese one.
Thanks in advance

This Rom is probably for Hong Kong Vendor ID, as I tried this rom on my Taiwan purchased one and it issues an incorrect vendor ID. Seems that in order to change the Taiwanese rom to WWE, I have to wait for the proper HardSPL .
Just wonder if the Jade HardSPL will work on the Iolite machine. Since I already used it once to "release" my Jade from "Jail" , it will not allow me to re-try for the Iolite (it will issue a message indication that I have used it once to change the CID of one machine..).
Has somebody tried the Jade HardSPL (I think ver3) to modify the Iolite CID?

I can allow you a second device, but it must be jade, not iolite - it would not work on iolite. anyway see my other msg's here in Iolite forum about status of HSPL and about another possibility on iolite language change that I can help with (just send me a PM)
