No Available Memory Info on Install Screen on 8525 - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

I just upgraded my PPC-6700 to the Cingular 8525. When I installed a program on the 6700, I would get a screen asking me if I want to install it to the device or card. It would tell me how much space is needed and how much space is available. On the 8525, the install screen only tells me how much space is needed and NOT how much is available. Is this only on the 8525 and not the other Hermes variants? Is there a hack to get it back?
Thanks,

I have this same thing on my HTC Tytn. Must be all variants,maybe Rom dependant?

M500 noob questions

Hi,
i have just got my first magician device - the SPV M500 and have a few questions. is it worth updating any of the roms like so many of these posts talk about? although i purchased it on orange and it has all the orange branding i mainly use my o2 sim - should i look at using the o2 xda mini rom? or am i best just sticking with what i have?
also what programms would people most reccomend for the magician devices? as i want to get the most out of it! also is there a better software for backing the phone up than activesync?
thanks and sorry for the stupid questions!
Tom
anyone?
I always say: if it aint broken, dont fix it
I dont follow the rule myself, I like to tweak and patch my device until its to my satisfaction....the default configs are just horrible imo
but if you dont know what yer doing...be carefull with upgrading
for software I have a few apps I cant do without:
WebIS Pocket Informant 2005 - a PIM application
phoneMax PhoneAlarm - Advanced profile setup
Wivit SIM Status Switcher - for switching between SIM cards when using a dual SIM adapter
SPB Weather - I like to know the weather...this is a Today screen plugin
SBSH Pocketbreeze - displays your tasks and appointments on the today screen
Get some backup software and then you can play to your hearts content.
However, I went from 1.11 to 1.12 without noticing any differences, so I'd concur, don't mess unless you feel you really need to!
Do the bigstorage hack though. And if you're doing that, you might as well rom upgrade at the same time.

I had the same debate over my m500.
I used it for around 3-4 days just how it was supplied to me, to see if it was stable (which it was) the rom that was supplied with my m500 was 1.06 (found in start>settings>system>device info) I have kept this version of the rom, but upgraded the radio rom to 1.13 and also hacked it to give me big storage.

Advice on ROM upgrade for Vario

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!

Bring me up to date ^^;;

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?

what rom to use?

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.

Htc Audio Booster for Wizard?

I saw it on a post for Herald (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308773&post=3) and tried to install it on my 8125 but it doesn't work. The installation can run through. However no function is in effective.
Does anyone have more info about it? Can we make it work for Wizard?
I SECOND that request how the heck is this suppose to work i have been trying to use it on my 8525?
its an app u run from the programs menu, looks like a small mixing board if im not mistaken.... just helps to kick more life out of the phones speakers....
im not sure what went wrong with yalls installation, works just fine on my mda, thought its only a small improvement
it installs but it does not work it maybe the sound chip on the mda is different correct me if im wrong

Hi, Greyzter: you are the only one that reported it work on a Wizard. Could you kindly list some details about your device such as hardware version, OS, etc. so we can compare? I have a Cingular 8125 (Wiza100, G3) with NBD 7.1 ROM (WM6).
The installation is fine. Some noticable things include 1) change media manager theme, 2) cannot toggle "equalizer" and 3) no effect when selecting any preset or change the sliding bars.

That is what I am thinking as well. If this is the case, it won't work unless some one can work out correct driver.
The bottom line is: we need an equalizer for playing music but neither WMM nor Htc Media Manager has one built-in. Install another media player would be the only way to go but it is not preferred.
so the bottom line is htc audio booster is not compatible to wizrd or hermes?

T-Mobile Wing Users (aka HTC Herald) would like to know also . . .
If this HTC Audio booster app will work, please PM me and let me know or just respond here if anyone gets this working successfully, and what must be done to make it work.
Thanks.
This program is already made for the herald, wizard and hermes users are trying to get it to work for theirs, here is link to the thread:
