If you are asking will your phone scream ATT or Cingular, NO it will not. Will the Hermes ROMS install and work much better on the 8525 than the shipped ROM, YES it will! You will need the keyboard install cab to get the key mappings correct though.

Yes, you'll need the Cingular Keyboard cab though... do a search or it's likely on the wiki

Can you suggest a working rom for the cingular 8525? maybe even the sliding keyboard?

Read this and this first. I like the 3-26 LVSW and the WMXL v2.0. See my signature.

Can you help ?

WHOAH There buddy.
ROMS are really dependant on the user and the programs that they are using.
If you want an official cingular rom, look for the ones with Cingular as the retailer. the benefit of these is all your data, mms settings and such are all done for you, the bad is they are loaded with all sorts of crap and are slow. If you want something a little different then take a look around from one of our cooked roms, each has its own falvors and options you are just gonna have to read and stop being so demanding.

If you really read those then you wouldn't be asking where to download from.

He asked what I like and I told him. Ask me what color I like and you will get an answer you may or may not agree with too.

Very simple QTEK ROM question :P

Can anyone tell me which one is the latest English QTEK ROM available?
I tried looking on myqtek.com but i'm assuming they wont accept my IMEI, so i had a look on the XDA FTP, and i couldnt work out which was the newest one (coinciedentally, when was the newest one released, and is there a newer one on the verge of release?)
Thanks!
That's the one.
Cheers

Thanks alot
Are there any known 'issues' with this ROM?
Is there already a thread discussing this ROM, i cant see one if there is
thanks again
Gah, i just tried to install that ROM (on a UK MDA Pro) and i got this error:
ERROR 120: COUNTRY ID ERROR
The ROM image that you are trying to use is not designed to work on your device. Please
check the vender Web site and download the correct ROM update.

I've just got all the files together, one question though, what should the screen look like when it's in bootloader mode? Is it mostlyblank, with some text in the middle?
Thanks again

Yes, the Boot loader screen looks blank with "Version 1.XX" at the bottom.
Sweet, i've just flashed my MDA Pro with the latest QTEK ROM..... seems really good so far...... alot faster than the CRAPPY T-Mobile ROM!
If it's fixed the problem i was having with the T-Mobile ROM, then i'll be very happy
Fingers crossed!

Seems pretty good so far, and quite a bit faster than the latest T-Mobile ROM. Haven't encounted the crashing problems i had with that ROM either, so fingers crossed, it'll be OK now! (although i won't hold my breath!)
I just need to skin it up now I hate the crappy standard blue windows theme (i kinda liked the pink+grey t-mobile one lol)
Another nice ROM is JWright's Modified ROM, which is a modified QTEK ROM. Personally, I think Jwright's ROM is better than QTEK's, because I experienced the lag problem in using the BT headset when I have QTEK's ROM on my exec. I switched to Jwright's ROM, and the BT lag issue disappered, I added some files from T-Mobile and it's the best so far.

Cool, well once i've confirmed that the crashing issue is totally gone (by sending alot more txts & e-mails) i'll probably start thinking about customising it a bit
I've seen some really nice skins around, especially that Windows Vista one..... i just gotta figure out how to install it lol

OH MY GOD I DROPPED MY PHONE TODAY!!!!!!!!!
rofl omg im so pissed at myself :'(
Stupid cheap crappy plastic case.... it's sooooooooo deeply scratched and dented
Luckily it still works fine, and the screen/keyboard/buttons aren't damaged.. but still........ really annoying
Anyway, as for the speed... from my experience so far, the QTEK is faster
I m now using the latest O2 ROM. It the latest version of the OS. So, one shall try the O2 rom in corporate mode(0506)
Well i totally give up now, i've got the EXACT same problem using this QTEK ROM, so i'm assuming it's either a problem with the hardware (memory?!) or the OS......
so pissed off right now...... i have a externally and internally ****ed phone! HORRAY!!!!!

lol that line was pretty funny. On a serious note, that's a real bummer you dropped your phone
I hope you get the internal part worked out, I'm sure it's just a software issue.

Are you for real? Why would you want that fugly theme back? hehe. Sorry that wasn't very helpful. Try searching the wiki for a dump file of the WM5 Ameo ROM and maybe you can extract it from there if no one else comes forward with it before then.
Good luck.
No matter now, problem resolved :-D Cheers!
Humm, Perhaps so T-Mobile can look/fix it if it has problems. Its better if the SW atleast looks like the Orig. ROM.. (as most local stores have non-techie service people)

RAM Upgrade?

Hi,
Is there anyway to upgrade the RAM in wing?
Thanks
None, unfortunately. :-/
Getting rid of the stock TMO Rom is the second best thing. Go to the Herald WM6 forum and pick one of the roms - I personally use open touch 2.x

True. With the stock tmobile ROM I had about 11mb of free RAM. With my ROM, I have about 28mb.

This is a Herald Forum. Please ask this question in the HTC's Magician forum. (There isn't, though, like oddball1 said.)
But they do have some cool hacks for it... please read CAREFULLY and understand the hacks BEFORE you apply them.

Any ROM is gonna be good. It's personal oppinion.
At least tell us what you're looking for!! How should we know what you want? Lol. Just tell us an idea of what you want in your ROM.

Standard htc rom?

Hi new here. Just got an htc hd2 locked to tmobile. I have done the hardspl ok but now I want to get rid of all the tmobile branding.
I am not sure about the custom roms as want it to look like it does now. What rom do I need to make it look like a standard unbranded hd2 as if it was a sim free model?
Had a good look but just dont know which one to get.
Cheers
Simon.
There is a stickied thread at the begining of the HD2 rom development page, where all the official roms are stored. Although i would personally go for a cooked rom with the speed increase and bug fixes, there are some that dont look any different than a stock rom.

remember you'll have to get the phone's SIM lock off as well as a ROM flash won't get rid of this. you can either get th code off T-Mobile or use one of the pay for service found on the web

Yeah code just been emailed not 5 mins since so unlocked now. Its just the wife wants rid of the tmobile stuff. A cooked rom that looks like stock is what she is after especially if they have less bugs and faster etc. It would be good to have a larger keypad too as its a tad small.
I'd say get the one I'm running (CleanEx - see my sig) pretty much stock but with all the crap removed - very good, fast ROM
remember to flash the radio in my sig first, though

What do you mean by crap?
"crap" - Programs that no one wants or uses like co-pilot, any programs that are missing you can find most in cab format to reinstall on this forum.

Thats cool. I have tomtom to go on it which works anyhow but only has 4 digit postcode? Trying to find great britain postcode files that are 7 digit but to no avail as yet!
She dont like the way it looks, says it too sparse. Can you recomend another? Says things like weather pics etc have gone.
If you want as good as it gets then I'd take a look at Miri's WM 6.5 ROMs:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=607437
Or Dutty's HG ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=610634
Ran both myself for a while and both are very good, cutting edge ROMs without all the rubbish that you'll never use
Thanks mate I will check them out. I have Artemis on at the moment which looks nice.
