O2 are really starting to disappoint me with their tardiness. and I work for them.
It has been confirmed as on its way but with no ETA. I hope it has radio rom .9 and the more responsive os build

Today they emailed me a "change" in their terms and conditions, and linked to a lengthy Ts&Cs page. Trouble is, they don't highlight what has changed and I have no patience to re-read the entire thing.
Same here, new contract, don't you hate it when they do that, I always feel like they are trying to hide something by sending the entire contract without pointing out exactly what has been added or changed! Perhaps it's just paranoia on my part <twitch>
I am hoping that the wait for the new O2 rom will mean we will all be pleasantly suprised at it's content, but don't hold your breath. I can just see it now on XDA Developers when it is released... "Why did we have to wait so long for this new ROM, it's crap!"
Oh well, figers crossed
Regards
There is a new build currently in test, based on the 1.30 ROM and 1.09 Radio stack. It will be without A2DP functionality.

Same here! I have emailed them asking for details of what has changed, but don't hold up much hope of a useful answer.

Pretty good, screen switching is faster than O2, phone signal seems pretty stable. Can't comment on the memory leak issues, because I'm not sure when the memory is being used for cache or when it is really leaked.
WiFi network finder has some nice changes, LIST of available networks now shows signal strength too, and alarms now have a "dismiss until 5 mins before event" thing - neat!
Thanks Doody, I think I'll give it a go tonight.

I got a roasting for mentionning this forum at work. I work for o2, and I'm confused by that statement.

So are you saying O2 is not going to release an update with A2DP support?
if they dont and there are a number of us on the forum with mails from O2 to the contrary then we can roast them for misleading us.
trapper:
I did not man to cause any confusion.
I have been lead to belive by a "friend" that a2dp will be supported. I will say no more about my friend.
emails. I have read more than 1 post on these forums that o2 have emailed people to say it will suport a2dp.
what is there to be confused about ?
Why did you get roasted at work for mentioning this forum ?

Install the ROM available for download and check the dates on it to see how well they kept to the first maintenance update schedule, I think they just didn't update the webpage when they released the ROM. Saying that though they do seem to be a little behind the others in getting out an AKU2 package
Today I was talking with Mrs. XXXX from HTC Brazil (yes they have a local plant here now) and after 10 times asking for the holly wm6 ROM, she said:

let's just say if i do share this ROM, there will be no more testing for me in the future and also i will be in deep trouble. It's a risk i can't take. But good news is I can confirm the WM6 update is coming really soon now.
Sorry to be the one to ask this but what is considered soon? By the end of the month. I can't wait for the stability of WM6. I was spoiled with my Hermes. I forgot what it was like to run WM5.

there you go, someone answer for me. Official release is said to be out next month. I will be getting beta version at the end of the month of beginning of next month. Hopefully they won't delay on the official release.
p.s. Oh, by the way, this time line only applys to DOPOD, HTC might have similar time line too. But T-mobile Ameo user should expect a slide delay if T-mobile ever wanted to release the WM6 for Ameo.
ok
We know about the official release from Dopod, but this ~internal beta testing~ is really internal.
Someone needs to share, the potential of this device only will be explored with WM6...
Meanwhile , I'm still using my Universal....
and next week... The Jesus Phone (aka Iphone)
Why is everyone so kean on WM6 - the official blurb I read only seemed to be rae about html email - is wm6 really worth reinstalling everything? (when it comes ...)
Yes it is. I had a Hermes for the past 10 months and upgraded to WM6 as soon as XDA came out with it. Even from the very first beta versions it was more stable and faster than an official WM5 version. And remember the WM6 versions I was using had been hacked up and stuff added and taken away. Even with all that I would never soft reset it during the day to unfreeze it or to get the memory back that programs had leaked. Grant it there were still programs that had problems due to incompatibility with WM6. But overall it is a faster and smoother operating system.
more bad news...

That's old news and good not bad
HTC is also offering WM6 upgrades for the most popular devices in its current range. This includes recently launched “messaging” products, which will enjoy the greatest benefits of Windows Mobile 6, such as the HTC Advantage, the HTC TyTN, the HTC S620, and the HTC P4350. The upgrade will also be available for the award-winning HTC P3300, plus some of our operator-branded devices. The upgrades will be rolled out from June, in line with our operator partners’ strategies.

according to HTC europe, the release date for the Athena's WM6 is early September...
It wont matter, come August Advantage X7501 is out which ships with WM6. Once someone gets hold of this we will get a ported WM6 ROM.

the x7501 ROM won't work on X7500, these two machine are not identical. You still need the wm6 update of x7500

I'm pretty confident given the Vast similarities of the devices someone on these boards will be able to easily and readily do the port. Therefore I confer my previous statement that once X7501 is released, we will have a WM6 ROM, none of this waiting for September business.

that is very true, anyway, from what i know and the beta testing going on, the wm6 is still possible to be launch in July, so if lucky, you will get it before x7501 comes out. Second, don't forget you need to CID Unlock your device before flashing x7501.
Not sure if anyone saw this http://www.palm.com/us/support/downloads/treopro850u_bluetooth/sd.html it's suppose to fix the bluetooth issue. I guess Palm is listening.

Hello
Just to let everyone know I was on the phone to tech support yesterday and the rather informed lad I was speaking to was saying that SMS hotfix to sort out the bag lag and non sending issue will be released in 10 to 14 days. Also the 1.48 ROM is not on the HTC site because its not an official release or fix in any way he said.

10 - 14 days? Seriously? I was hoping that the thread title, 'just around the corner' would have led to an announcement of , Monday/ Tuesday of next week.
Shocking and very disappointed
... but very good to know that they have/are developing a solution for this issue as it tends to have hit alot of units (not mine...?).
Thanks!
around the corner?! they said the same thing for about a week or two.
Welcome news, even for those of us who haven't experienced the problem yet. 10-14 days sounds about right to me. Bug fixes for platforms like this have to be rock solid. Not like a patch for a pc game for example, where users are used to continually updating or rolling back versions.
This is good news, and I can wait. Let's face it - I don't have a choice.
I do think that 10-14 days is quite long though. Coming from a software background, that sounds reasonable, but we know that HTC don't actually test their software, so it should be about 4 days
Just kidding. I <3 HTC!!
very good news, but what so now if 1.48 isn't an official HTC Release, what the **** do i have on my leo right now Oo xD

It's never been officialy released by HTC. It was "leaked".
I just wanted to download the camera fix from htc.co.uk, and recognized a very interesting sentence: "This update is only applicable to ROM version is equal to 1.60.XXX.X, or lower"
So, shall we expact that HTC is working on an official ROM, which includes the camera-fix and has a version-number > 1.60 ???

I thought 1.49 was the official release:
http://htcpedia.com/news/official-htc-hd2-rom-1_49.html
Is this a hotfix for the lagging messaging app (i.e. - when you go to type aa message and have to wait for about 5 seconds or so before tapping the screen works)?
Sounds good to me...
I am following the WMDev team on twitter and have asked questions about a possible upgrade path to win7...
