It seems like Tmobile is replacing its Wizard Version (MDA) with a newer HTC device namely HTC Atlas.
The news seems to be true as Tmobile US has taken MDA off of its website.
More on this Here
hmm interesting.. theyve been offering me a new phone because ive already had 13 mdas.. maybe they'll offer me this next time i call into warranty.. thatd be sweet lol
Win Mobile 6 software upgrade to MDA?
Is Tmobile going to post the ROM update (WM6) on their site so we can grab that and put it onto our MDAs ???
Does anyone knows this for sure???
Thank you!

I talked to a guy from t-mobile when setting up my replacement mda to be shipped, and asked why mda wasnt on the site anymore, he told me about the new mda with wm6, but there will be no rom update for mda, just the dash.
I am really disappointed with T-Mobile...this is going to be their 4th pocket pc here in the U.S. (excuse if I am forgetting any of the others)...the HTC Atlas looks nice and all, but it's lacking the speed that Cingular, Sprint, and Verizon pocket pcs have...my friend even told me that the replacement of the vx6700, the vx6800 is come out with over 600mhz processor...I might just buy a 8525 from one of my friends that have Cingular...
I have inadvertently bricked my g4 8125 by flashing this rom to it: "RUU_Prodigy_1070302_103_10703102_CMCC_CHS_Ship.exe" which I assume now must be a G3 rom. I did this because it was stuck in bootloader while trying to go to the wizard love rom in order to try flashing TNT's WM6.1 rom (again, not to happy with the first try). So, since my phone will no longer even power on (since I inconsiderately force fed it the wrong rom version) I need a new motherboard. Are the motherboards from all the incarnations the same? Even though I have the Cingular 8125, will the motherboard from an MDA work for me?
Thanks in advance.
yes..
all related model motherboards will fit to your phone...qtek 9100,htc wizard,Orange Spv m3000 and other models...it doesn't mater if the board has a g3 or g4 chip it will fit perfectly....where are you from...would you like to donate your dead motherboard?i need it for research here on xda-developers...e-mail me or PM me
I'm in the US on the East Coast. I don't have any problem donating my old motherboard, I'm scouring eBay now trying to get a good deal on a used one. Since I'm due for an upgrade in August and will probably spring for the Tilt, I don't want to spend too much!
how much does the shipping cost to Romania?can you find out?
According to www.usps.com, it could be as little as $10.30.
just picked up a used MDA, should have mine repaired soon! I really miss it, especially considering I've been using our backup phone (an LG C2000).
Unlock T-Mobile MDA
I have successfully changed the motherboard. I assume the IMEI number of the phone is now the one of the T-Mobile MDA which is now in my Cingular 8125?
I beleive that is the case. The IMEI *should* be tied to the mobo, and not the software, but I do not know for sure, so dont take my word for it!
Ok, so now that I have a G3 instead of G4 (like magic!) I assume this is the proper thread to follow to SIM unlock it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=305225
I'm really trying to be cautious now, don't want to brick it again! The motherboard is out of a T-Mobile MDA and when I insert my AT&T SIM card it asks for an unlock code.
Read and follow this guide as its latest and with more info :-
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
or just find the Lokiwiz thread...follow the instructions for G3...i think it still needs a bootloader downgrade...but now that you have a G3 it's 100% risk free...you can hardly kill a G3....so good luck and work safe....don't forget to read twice,understand and then just read again (just to make sure)
It's Alive!
Thanks for all the help. I've already been through TNT 19213, BD 3.1, and am now using Cloud_Nine 0.9b. Is there still any interest in getting the bricked G4 motherboard? Maybe if there was someone to send it to state-side the shipping would be a little cheaper.
Hello there!
I need the motherboard or mainboard for HTC Cruise.
Where can I get one? My HTC Cruise was working OK, and suddenly no SIM, no Wi-Fi, no BT, no Camera. I tried chaning radios and roms but still the problem.
Any idea?
Thanks!
Motherboard Polaris
I had same problem,replaced Motherboard warranty from Assistance HTC!!!
Yes, but actually the warranty of my mobile is already expires. That's why i am looking for the alternative way or to buy a other used board.
Thank you.
Help Please!!!!!!!!1
I wish i could help, but finding parts for these are hard, especially the Orbit 2 version.
If you give up on the device, and wish to sell as parts i'm very interested as my screen is ruined with scratches, and parts are always handy
Model: xda o2 Orbit 2 (not the silver cruise, the other one)

Just got my Airtel Carrier - HTC Hero (unlocked) 2.73.720.5
Im surprised that everyone besides India have a 2.73.4xx firmware. Is it just me or did India get a smaller updated edition (revision) compared to the rest of the world, or is this just Airtel's doing of a little extra in the firmware/rom.
After running from WM to the iPhone, Ive finally made peace (hopefully) with the HTC Hero (Android). Being an avid Star Trek Fan...all I can say is I've got "Data" - what about you all
I did my little share of forum searching, but I couldnt find a single post regarding the Airtel HTC Hero (the last HTC Magic was locked with that stupid and insanely painful SPL), so my question begins with
1) Is the Airtel HTC Hero using another crazy SPL?
2) If so, what guide should I follow for unlocking (ability to ROM upgrade/change)
3) I can confirm that we are NOT locked to SIMCARDS - I can use my Idea Cellular Simcard just fine.
Added questions include - are there "Kitchens" like we used to have for Windows Mobile ?
Hope someone can help me out here - I'd love to be part of the ol' Cooking & Chef team
Nice to know that Airtel has brought in the latest version of the ROM.
Did you buy it with the Airtel dealer OR from a conventional distributor. At Bangalore, it is priced at 32K. How much did it cost you?? I am more of a palm guy...the palm pre just does not seem to come out.
I paid 33,600 actually Couldnt get a better deal and didn't want to wait a few more days since I'm off to USA tomorrow (rdosti = shivam)
Performance
Guys,
I am planning to buy Hero through Airtel and have a few questions,
1. Is the airtel version unlocked ?
2. Should I buy from Airtel or open market ?
3. Any reasons not to buy it ? Performance ? sluggishness ?
and lastly, is it simple to update the firmware, I am very keen on the new Android 2.0 update for the new google GPS app.
thanks in advance,
Jaspreet
Only the first part of 2.73.xxx.x bit matter. The "xxx.x" refer to carrier and regional customization, the ROM is basically the same.
have same phone, in China.
Hi,
Did you root the phone? I have the same phone, but i bought it in China for 3100 rmb. I'm trying, and im stuck on downloading 'boot.img'... FAILED (remote: not allow)

hi. i need a new LCD for my dezire z, after searching and finding very little info, all i can come up with is these people:
http://www.gultek.eu/htc-spare-parts/lcd/desire-z.html
has anyone bought one in the uk and replaced it successfully? if so, what company did you buy it from, and is it a genuine htc part, and also is there any way of telling if it really is a genuine htc part?
thanks people
link posted above turns out to be just a copy from china, after phoning and asking 3 times, surprise surprise.
does anyone know if the G2 LCD is exactly the same as the Desire Z?
apparently HTC have not released parts for the desire Z yet over here..
thanks.
