Newest official update for T-Mobile Wing?

Hello, I'll be getting my Wing within the week and I was wondering what the newest official firmware/rom is out by T-Mobile or HTC for the Wing? I'm very new to PDA phones so I'm not sure about what to upgrade to or if I should.
Thanks!

If I am not wrong, there is only one version for wing and you will get it with that. How ever, I am sure you are NOT going to stay with that . You will definetly flash it to one of sexy roms Touch-IT,WWE v1.1 or PDAVIET Touch Flo Professional Rom v4.12.07.12.
best of Luck .
I suggest you spend the next week trying to familirize(correct spelling?) yourself with the flashing process and trying to cover the problems that others have when flashing, pretty much read the entire Herald forum. I know it seems like a lot but you'll be glad that you did once your Wing arrives. This way you will already know which edits are needed (such as PP) and which edits are useful or flashy and can waste memory (htc home plugin/slide2unlock.)
btw welcome to xda-dev, feel free to drop a PM when you need help.
and since your from T.O gotta add the...

I used the tmo update for a couple days. the fact that I flashed back to the old ROM should tell you that the update sucks. I personally hated it. they take more tweak ability away from the user. I think that was their only purpose in the update was to make it harder to tweak. I could be wrong though

i believe this is the newest OFFICIAL T-mobile wing ROM.
dont see why you would use it but whatever you want.
and i believe THIS is the newest build of WM6.1 but is not official for the wing but is still usable if you have hard-spl
hope that helps.
New Wing
Yeppers, just read read read and have fun

CUbe and Bioscroll

Hi
I don't want to install a whole new rom at this time
I am using the O2 UK WM6 Rom
WHats the best version of cube, htc home and scroll to install please
I've been searching but there seems to be loads of variations
I want to try this before going down the new Rom route
i have been where u are now
a word of advice m8 these developers know what they doing and if u upgrade that 02 rom it will slow to a halt thats why they tweak the whole thing to make it run well
i installed a rom 2 daays ago and it was 2 clicks they compiled everything together unzipped folder and click this then click that took 20 mins and the cube is flowing nicely http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=342298&highlight=Artemis+Touch+3.01+full
theres what i used it even has all the extras built in alternative networks etc only thing i added was htc to get custom tabs i like cartoonie ones
hope that helps
Also im a noob user not an expert found it easy
I would pm meschle to ask him about his roms, but right now I dont wanna bother him w/ petty material questions. Meschle, I wish the best for you and your family.
So if anyone else w/ experience can help here's my question:
I downloaded his Artemis 3.01 Touch lite ROM and unzipped file. Now what do I do? Do I need to install the EnableRapi and Cert_SPCS cabs before going to step 1? Do I need to run Artemis_USPL first seperately? I borked my SMT5600 trying to put a WM6 rom on it and am very weary of doing it to my precious Artemis.
If anyone could help w/ simple instructs also thanks.
BTW,
My phone is
ARTE100
WM5
ROM 1.12.405.1 WWE
Radio 02.67.90
the Touch ROMs, when unzpped has 2 bat files. It's clearly named "step1", "step2".
Just follow. Shouldn't go wrong. Step1 is actually the USPL.
Ok got it to work but, man, what a wild ride. It's really fast and I recommend doing this ROM update rather than trying alot of cabs.
Hays, its well worth just doing the ROM update. If you use Meschle's ROMs, they are fast and soo stable.

so, is there a way of installing bioscroll/cube without changing the ROM? I can't use the USB cable to connect to a PC (i have to copy cabs onto Micro SD, then install). My USB circuit has blown up from charging in the car so syncing no longer works, and phone is out of warrenty!
Cheers

i meant that i cant change the ROM, so i would need to install it onto the ROM i am using (standard T-Mobile WM5 ROM)
Is this possible? if so, could someone link to the files/thread, i have searched but not found seperate files, only ROMs.
Cheers
On the wiki page there is discussion about loading ROM's through the microSD card.

original rom?? or un hard spled?? i know how to do both.. just gotta say which one... lol..
i would love to know how to do both please :]
I am also in desperate need of knowing how to do this!
There are plenty of posts regarding this...
One minute search gave me a few different posts that had the answer, this one being the clearest on it by far.
How to remove HardSPL from tmobile wing (Removes both HardSPL and the ROM, obviously.)

ROM's ????

hi, Im still kinda new to all this but would like to flash a new rom ,have read some of the threads and im still a little confused ..is there no way to make the like an .exe so it just runs like the rom ugrades on HTC website ...like i said new to all this and i figured if it could be done it would of but has to ask ..( wife would kill me if i bricked this phone)
They do run as an exe. Just unzip the file, then open the folder and double click customRUU.exe, and that will run just like an update from HTC!!
Make sure you have HSPL'd your phone first, and have a read of the stickies in the rom development forum first.

Which WM6.5 ROM to get?

I'm planning to put WM6.5 on my Touch HD.
First: Will there be an official one from HTC or do I have to get it here?
If I take one from here, which one would you recommend? I'd like a clean one with no software pre-installed. (except what you would expect from HTC like manila)
Thanks!
1) no there wont be an official 6.5 rom for the HD
2) the which rom should i choose question is frowned upon here cuz it starts arguments, all i can suggest is try diffrent roms, each one offers diffrent things, you'll soon find one you like
alright, thanks!
is there somewhere a list of available roms?
i can't quite find any

Not looking very hard, are you? Try Blackstone ROM Development or HTCPedia.

May also want to try this page in the wiki....should be almost up-to-date. If its not up-to-date then the rest can be found in rom development forum

You are right I wasn't looking very hard. Thanks for the hint to the wiki!
well i guess i'm just leaving my original rom...
i flashed my artemis and i remember having a hard time reading through many threads around here. i don't want to risk doing something wrong... i found a rom that seens good but i couldm't find any download link. what i've heard so far about WM6.5 is not really worth going through all that.
maybe i'll change my decision soon though
thanks!
I had the same problem
