Qtek 8010 rom update

Ensure you are using Microsoft Active Sync 4. Connect your device via USB. Basically, the process of flashing is divided into 10 steps. Step 1 - Download all the necessary files. With ClearType, the font looks better but Chinese font looks abit awful. The same applies to Feeler and Amadeus. There might be new versions in the future so I will update the links from time to time.

Step 2 - Ensure that your device is application unlocked, if you are unsure whether it is application unlocked or not, it does not harm to unlock it once again. Then execute the exe file in it. You should see something like this. The purpose of running this application is to ensure that you can install any unsigned 3rd party application which is the tool needed to SuperCID in the next step. If your device is already application unlock, you can skip this step. Extract it to a folder, let's say on a desktop.

You will see three files in it. Copy cert. Firstly, check the box ' I have understand Also the sound quality for WMA ringtone isn't too good. Please advise. I get it out every time I have a problem with whatever newer phone I'm using and it never fails, I've even managed to get it unlatched and now using a Vodafone sim in it. I only wish I could work out how to tidy up my files since I messed them up last year, and would love to be able to use MP3 as ringtones.

Great phone. Still use it after 2 and a half years. Its small powerful and looks alright. You can easily kill applications using this utility. It is very actively supported by the author. Refer to the XBar website for more details. Incidentally, XBar even displays the ambient temperature! Build Quality Build quality is excellent. I have dropped it many times on tile flooring and once even on a cement flooring. Absolutely no visible damage has been caused so far by my carelessness.

Battery Life The unit has a very decent battery life. Lasts upto 2 days with normal usage. Heavy usage of internet could also affect battery life to a large extent.

A good feature of the phone is that it can get trickle charged through the USB cable. So while you keep your phone synchronized, you can also keep it charging! Conclusion Needless to say, the typhoon is widely regarded as the best Smartphone ever.

Apart from a few minor quirks, you get a top notch cellphone with the best multimedia and internet capabilities. Now it is retailing in India for the price of around Rs. Go for it! It is also available as the O2 Xphone in India. A new model with better looks and slight hardware improvements is also now available for almost the same price. Called o2 Xphone II. Or if you can wait for a while, save some money for Windows Mobile 5 based phones.

Upgrading the ROM on a phone is a risky business. A small mistake and you can easily end up with a damaged phone — which can only be used as a paperweight later. After reading this article, if you attempt to upgrade the ROM, be aware that you are doing it at your own risk and the author of this article is in no way responsible for any damages caused to you or your phone. Update: 21 Feb It almost 2 years and surprised that still many people are interested in this phone!

To all of you who are planning to purchase this phone: Though it is a great phone, it is now little outdated. There are plenty of new models from HTC itself, which you can consider. The review was excellent. But, there are a couple of things you missed out to describe about Bluetooth and Infrared file transfer capability.

On the basis of this review just 3 days back i had bought the phone and now after working on it have realised that their is no way to transfer files from Krome to other phones or computer via bluetooth, the only way to trasfer the files to computer is through active sync and even for transfering files through infrared u have to use file explorer which is not very handy to use. Also for receving files via bluetooth from other phones u have to pair it first and only then can recv.

Yes, it does support Java and Yahoo messenger. Yahoo Messenger does not come as a standard install, but it is available on the net.

Devesh, I cannot write a detailed guide as I do not have this phone anymore. But all the information is available on the net. Since WM5 for Typhoon is not officially supported, there are no standard installers available. You have to do a lot of techie things to install this.

I did this once, but when I tried to downgrade, I ended up bricking the phone. So I would strongly recommend not to do it. If you want WM5, exchange your present phone for i-mate SP5.

Its a great phone. Sure it costs more money, but it is defintely worth it. Jaganath — thanks, awesome review. Can you tell me how the hands free function works? I am unable to use it in my phone.

I also have the problem that when I connect with GPRS, the phone does not disconnect from the service though it shows it has and I get billed for usage.

So many times I put of the phone and then restart. To activate the speaker phone, just press and hold the green phone button till the speaker icon shows up on the top. You can do this while a call is in progress to activate the speaker.

Similarly press and hold the home button to get the option to disconnect GPRS. No need to restart the phone. Thanks for the reply. Just got a bill for internet usage covering 6 hours continuous! Finally, is there a quick way to activate blue tooth as I have a blue tooth hands free option in the car which I use to connect with the phone when in the car? Ok the reason i have written, i have a problem, my battery is dead.

Yeah i forgot to mention that i have Krome IQ Some one wrote a small tool called BT Toggle. Just Google for it. Once you install this, you can assign it to one of the keys.

Great app. I used it while I had the phone. You have to install activesync in your PC and set up synchronization with your mobile. Then you can install any software from your PC. Guess what — I lost my phone!

Someone flicked it telling the cafe waiter it was his and by the time i realised and got back to the cafe it was gone. Worse off is that I am in Australia and do not think this thief can get a charger for it?

Anyways since I had liked the phone wondering what I should convert to? Any suggestions? I can wait and get a Krome from India too — is there a new better model?

Basic needs are office email through internet browser , sync with Outlook, speaker phone, blue tooth for car, calendar features to sync with outlook again, good vibration as I keep phone mainly on this setting and good easy to press and use keys like the iQ and finally not heavier or bigger than iQ Anyways, if you are looking for a replacement, consider i-mate sp5 or sp5m. Both are available in India from i-mate retailers.

I think you can get it in Aus too. The main diff. Otherwise both have the same hardware specs. Will revert back in future,if I may do so. Keep up the good work Best regards. Hi first of all its asupreb review… i am a big fan of windows mobiles…..
