Hi all, I have just purchased a Cingular 8525 branded hermes and have a few questions.
firstly, i have just updated from wm5 to 6.1 and there is no windows live messenger. What version do I need to get.
also, what can i do with this that i cant with my nokia e71
You can get it off my signature (sharing what i use). Not to sure about the nokia device as i've never owned one. Interesting username if it's what i think it means (devil?).
Yeah it does mean devil. Actually came across it in the Dune series of novels by Frank Herbert.
I got a few programs from the link in your sig, thanks. Just been trawling through the forums and have come across some interesting things.
Any must have games or apps?

Glad you got it working. I use most of the Programs/Games off my sig so i would recommend those.
Yea, i figured. Shaitan is devil in Arabic.

Thanks for the help guys.
Another quick thing - The following is what shows up under device manager-
Operator VersionDAViet.net
ROM Version: DVH_V20
ROM Date: 08/25/08
Radio version: 1.16.00.00
Protocol version: 32.53.7018.01H
ExtROM version: Diamond(Full)
Do any of these need updating for better performance/features? eg the radio rom? What are some of your guys opinions on the current rom/s above?

Hello Every,
I've been a big xda-developers and i've gone to you guys many times in the past to help me out. I have just been talk into a ROM upgrade from my friend who has my Wizard and loves WM6. So i have decide that AT&T is taking too long on the WM6 release and would like to move on over.
Now i have gone through and read all the different upgrade from all the different ROMs, Black Majic, etc and i want to get everyone's opinion on which ROM is the best to go with for the 8525? I want a fast ROM that is fully functional with my ActiveSync for exchange and has some cool new features.
Let me know what you guys think.
Thread number 1,304 on this topic.
If you're an AT&T user, I would highly recommend vp3G's rom. It's very nice, especially since it's all set up for AT&T use already
GldRush98 thanks for the reply. I was looking for a link like this but i didn't see one for the 8525. Thanks for your input.
welcome to xda-developers... i suggest reading this and when asking questions... have a look at the Forum Titles... if its Windows Mobile 6 related (like this question is) the question is to be asked in there...
i always find this also a good source of knowledge...
Is it time to ask administrators about new forum?
Why?
WM6 for BlueAngel is working. At least several people here (including me) was able to use beta version.
Beta version is good enough for everyday use. In fact: it is release candidate.
Author (helmi_c) promised to release soon. very soon.
A lot of people here are interested in this release.
So...?
Request passed to the admins, i've also tried the beta and it's really worth a new form
Why not!! I totally agreed with it as this will ease members to navigate right info.
Can Anyone send me a ROM file?
Thanks a lot
wm6
yes i would like to try out the wm6 for my sx66 also why dont you release the new os today or tomorrow i think that would be very nice. please send me the wm6 please.
You all will try it out when the time comes: 31.08.2007
WM6 Forum
I agree - a new forum would be great for all including Newbies and BA fans alike... also to stop rip off mercahnts charging £10 to download on ebay!!!
After the release we will need to update the wiki as well
I second this request too.
Create a sub-forum for BA-WM6...
we have to wait untl 31 August
i am speechless here guys
well done Helmi_c.
New forum for WM6 ready.
It's awesome to see "Windows Mobile 6" on the subforums list.
Can you smell the "fresh paint"?
yeah amazing
.................
just cant wait, lol

It will probably be the same way: put your device in "upgrade" mode (power+record+reset) and run maupgrade_noid.
I'm not sure if you can restore any backup.
Cool... great to see the new forum. I think I will lots of work this weekend
Report WM6 on BA
1. Speed Good
2. Battery to waste
3. Can't wireless Modem
4. Phone Singnal Good
5. Why I can't Sync Calenda now In used Active Sync 4.5
Please Help me This very Importance
Total Every thing It OK I try to test This Rom
New Sub Forums ...
hello everyone!
after the new WM06 forum is getting bigger and bigger, with an already overwhelming amount of information, i would suggest sub-forums for certain topics...
for example:
one for helmi_c's wm06 rom general stuff and bugs,
one for upgrading problems and questions,
one for addons and third party software
one for misc stuff...
of course their might be better categories, but what do you think about this in general?
just thinking....
regards,krz
Hey guys, I figured I would drop in and see what was good with all yall. I'm Gordon from Alabama and I just purchased my first wizard nothin special I guess just a cingular 8125. I am very new to this Rom upgradin and stuff and before I started throwin out all kinds of questions I figured I would introduce myself to yall. Any helpful information you guys want to share with me is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hey !
Welcome to the world of 'flashing Junkies'
As a starter,read the XDA-Wiki and especially the following guide ,if you plan to upgrade :-
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
Enjoy !
Thanks man, I read all that stuff just a few questions for you guys.
Will any Roms improve my Signal, and simply is it worth upgrading?
Hi and welcome to xda-developers
A radio rom will improve your signal, just make sure that it is specifically designed for the HTC wizard. If you try flashing a hermes or himalaya radio you will destroy your phone.
Is it worth upgrading ,you ask, well that depends on if you want to upgrade to wm6 or you want to upgrade the radio to improve reception.
All the cooked roms on here dont have the radio part included so that will be a seperate upgrade if you want it.
I have wm6 running on my xda mini-s and it works great for me.
How do I go about selecting a radio? Does it depend on my area or what info do I need?
Usually you get this by testing the radio's Where I live, i didn't see any difference on updating them, so I stopped changing it.
Ok well If all goes well I am very shorlty going to have the tmobile rom installed. Now to pick out one. I really cant seem to figure out which one I want there are soo many. As far as the radio goes where can I find those?
Hi all,
I am new to this forum and I am looking to upgrade my ROM, but what to?
Can anyone provide any recommendations and reasons as to why that ROM?
Thanks in advance.
Gregs79
Oh no...again..
Dear Gregs79
as i see you only joined this forum 2 days ago.
the easy way of flasing of the HD2 is possible since HSPL is released on 4 jan.
as it has just started the roms are still furter developed.
i'm not going to give you an advice on rom flashing, roms are a personal thing. layout, speed, light or full to name a few.
but i wil give you as a newbie the advice to read this forum, questions as this one you ask only irritate as you can see with the reply from eddieul
Indeed, there are just too much criteria to take into account; speed, usability, free space, removed/added apps or drivers, os version, et cetera; roms are a personal choice.
I do think it would be nice to have a rollup thread with all available roms and their particularities, but it's not like ckecking each thread bothers me anyway.
If unsure, better stick with official. Currently it's best choice for all.

First of all, apologies for the post, I was not intending to wind anyone up! I have spent the last couple of days looking at the forum, but not being familiar with the Windows Mobile interface and never having had a windows mobile phone before, I have absolutely no knowledge of what things are!
I appreciate and have seen that there are variations on ROMs, but as Yunabeco above states, it would be nice to have a thread containing all available ROMs with release dates and not just the official ones.
Apologies once again.

Alright mate, cut the man some slack, he's already apologised for the question no need to bite his head off. We're not all born with the knowledge when first coming here and basic questions will get asked time and time again, nothing wrong with a little patience, we all started from scratch at one time or another.
I think the best place to start is if you have stock rom 1.43, flash the official 1.61 and then move onto varients of the stock builds like l3v5y's or Dutty's.
Once you've become comfortable with those you can look at the other 6.5.3 builds if you're brave but sticking to stock builds is no bad thing as the HD2 is a pretty awesome bit of kit out the box.

Mod Edit - Warez or warez requests are not allowed on XDA
This forum is strictly anti warez, you must avoid that subject here.
For free tweaks and mods, you may check the "themes and apps" section, the very first sticky is a great start, but there are many more.
not a great way to introduce yourself to the forum.
the answer is yes it can, but not with help from anyone on here.
most of the apps aren't expensive, and lot of the themes etc are built by people here in their spare time and shared for free (although it's nice to donate every now and then)
Ok sorry about that guys just trying to choose between this and my iphone
i do apologise for this so i cant mention this type of thing on the entire forum ?

you can mention it, although continued speak of warez is likely to get you a ban.
There are various sites on the net where you can get such apps. However, since this is a developers site and a community who likes to support the developers (remember that without developers, you wouldn't have anything for your phone at all...inclusing cracked apps) we would prefer that you didn't talk about it too much.
Well dont wanna get banned just wanna learn the ins & outs thanks anyway
I can't comment on the warez thing that is unknown territory to me...
But I can reccommend you upgrade your ROM 1.66 - the official release from HTC.
It is the first thing I did when I got mine home...I cannot tell you all the things it updates but I know that I have yet to experience any of the problems people have mentioned in many of the forums that I follow.
And most of all read the hints and tips part of the HD2 forum - it has paid dividens.
And above all stay in touch with this forum - and ask questions...I have yet to not get an answer that helps...
