Okay, I am confused. There are so many threads about firmware this, firmware that, and there is [apparently] no clear list of what is the best.
I have a Hermes 100 (Orange M3100) and want to know the best firmware to have installed. I have no worries about loss of Orange stuff, so any brand will do.
Does anyone have a good list of which is the best firmware and what features each firmware has over another?
Many thanks for any help!

Well this is my first post and i am making it why ? .... Yes you got it right i bought something called Qtek S100 and after some research i got here.
And now as any new person having a toy im wondering what the toy can do ...
After having read some of the posts in the forum im going to make some questions i find pertinent.
1) Do all the brands that sell this have the same hardware so i can flash it with just about anyone´s flash roms ?
2) Whats the procedure for doing the above operation and what to do if all goes wrong and the image gets "screwed"? New Phone ?
Thanks in advance.
Hi Trystam,
I try to reply:
1) No. It is better to download and flashing the correct written ROM to the device. Usually there is a checking on the program to find out wheter the ner ROM is for specific device.
2) Usually as long as we can have Bootloader not screw up, we can always flashing the ROM. It is means safe.
If Bootloader fail, we need to do flashing direct (open the case). A bit difficult and need people expert enough to do it.
So, it is better to read opinion use the correct ROM and tools, and decide carefully wheter you need to flashing another ROM to the device.
Hope can help.
Best regards,
Arto.
I flashed my T-mobile Compact with Qtek rom and it works.... all these brands have same hardware, because their one and only manufacturer is HTC..

Hi all,
Sorry if this is a repeated question, but I cannot make head nor tail of the numerous rom versions out there.
I would like to know what the latest Qtek900 rom is.
Does anyone know of a site where this is available?
I have tried the Qtek site, but when I enter the IMIE of the phone, it will not allow me to enter the site.
I bought mine in Pakistan, so there is not really any support available.

Yeah, I've been unable to get my launcher default to stick. Even after a complete wipe and reflash. So don't really have any advice on a fix

Silly question, but have you searched the HTC Universal Wiki and the forums here?
You mentioned the IMEI - Do you need to SIM-unlock it? If so, there's a link on the Wiki to achieving this for most, if not all, the Universal clones out there (mine is an SPV M5000 and it worked great).
As for ROMs, I found Tomal's ROMs to be pretty darn amazing. I'm using his v8.9 myself, which is essentially Windows Mobile 6.1.
Beyond that, I'm just as much of a noobie as your good self, I'm afraid. I can only advise searching, searching and more searching... The answer *is* here.
Hey Guys,
Just bought an orange m5000 of a friend, got a few bits already installed and a GPS reciever for Tomtom.
Just wondering where to start really, the screen seems a bit laggy, I was hoping I could upgrade the firmware somehow, but Im new to this and looking at all the posts is a bit confusing.
I'd rather it not have all the Orange muck that seems to be on it at the moment as I am an o2 user.
The only thing I have done to it so far is use buzz's universal sim unlock tool which works well.
If its any help I get a 1.30.90 version number show up when I start and a radio version of 0.0.0.
If you could direct me to must have apps, and the latest firmware, id be forever grateful.
You have a radio version of zero?
Have you actually got a signal on the phone?
Would you like to put the latest O2 ROM on your Uni instead of the Orange, or would you just like to get rid of the Orange customisations?
If you've still got Radio 0.00 you haven't read the unlocker thread.
Please upgrade to a new rom ASAP. 0.00 does work, but is not advisable as stable.
My top tips for the Universal:
-Update your ROM.
-Remove the phone dialer skin.
From there, just keep reading the forums! Many threads on optimisation already.

Ok just updated it to the lastest o2 ROM and its looking pretty tasty, just wondering where all these optimisation threads are.
Which is the best ROM to run it off in order to get the best performance ??
Hi guys, I've just got a k-jam and want to flash it to wm6 / wm6.1. i have read the guide to upgrading and it seems rather easy, just requires patience and strong nerves , however i'm still unsure where i can get the wm6 ROMs from? url? Also a friend downloaded a ROM and had to re-do it after a week because it had some timer on it? how do i avoid ROMs like this? Im in australia and my carrier is optus, do i need an optus ROM? if i use another carrier branded ROM will it work with optus? Thanks heaps in advance and sorry for my noobiness!!

Hey guys, my phone comes with the folleong firmware - LG-E900AT-00-V10b-505-02-OCT-07-2010
I live in a country not described in the following thread ( Fiji, yep, i live in fii, but i bought the phone from australia, but will use it in fiji)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=935578
So any suggestions to which one i should flash it to?
ok, so no one has any feedback? :C what about this, anyone here flashed a phone bought from Australia or New Zealand and flashed it to Europe Open?
hey guys one more question, the roms on this page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=935578
if i was to flash to one of those, will i get mango applied with it or is that a separate procedure i have to do? i am so confused
flash with the one you feel more comfortable with, go for an open rom, it will work with any operator in any country of this world.
hey thanks for geting back to me, just the second question still lingers, does this upgrade my phone to mango as well or is this just a 'bios' upgrade?
if i was to use the australian optus firmware, will the phone become locked to that carrier?
i know these are basic questions, but i thought i would check before i flash cos i dont want to brick anything
took the dive and flashed to australian optus. worked awesome, thanks
just incase anyoneis interested in knowing, i dont have any battery issue with this mango upgrade and it didnt lock my phone to any carrier
