Hi guys.
I'm new here, but that won't matter.
I'm new to this entire phone area. I ordered a Cingular 8125, and is due on Monday. I've been using those "free with contract" phones for a while now, and I thought I would like a change in pace.
But the problem is, I know nothing at all about the Cingular 8125, so I have a few questions.
I have a Cingular SIM, as I am a customer of Cingular, but I'm buying the phone seperately, so do I have to get it unlocked?
What are some applications to use on it?
What is all of this talk about AKU2 i-mate, etc about?
And anything important you would like me to know...
Thanks guys, I appreciate it. ^_^
you dont need it unlocked if you use a cingular sim. They won't give it to you unlocked, but you can use a program called lokiwiz or awizard to do it if you want to. search the forums for downloads.
Aku2 is an update that adds push e-mail and stereo bluetooth support. imate is just the name of a company that rebrands these phones.
applications you need: omapclock, wm5newmenu, smartskey, RegistryWizard and Total commander
i also suggest a today screen shortcut launcher and a program that makes the X button actually close programs instead of minimize them. i use spb pocket plus for this, but there are free alternatives.
Opera has a great internet browser for ppc and an excellent java based mini version. I suggest both of those
Get TCPMP for movies and I like Mortplayer for mp3's
Thanks.
Where can I find these programs?
google.com, your local pirate for the rest
Thanks ^_^
Also, which ROM update should I use? I see a lot after I searched..
I just upgraded from Tmobile MDA to the latest ROM, and my problems have all but vanished. Radio now picks up Wifi much quicker etc:
K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020710_ship.zip
Thanks, does it matter which model you have? Cingular 8125, T-Mobile MDA, etc?
Pondering the leap myself...

Did you have problems with the settings or anything? Once you managed the install, how complicated was it? Did you edit the extended ROM? How much storage did you have after the install?
many roms of wm6 are around on known sites for specific models.is anything for our herald too?ive read that there is going to be an official update to wm6 of this model so there must be something around, even beta.
Mhhm, i couldn´t find anything by now....
Lets wait a little, i think HTC is going to release something for us, soon
No one cooking any roms for the Herald tho?
doesn't look like it, i looked into porting one of the wizard roms but i didnt get very far! its definately possible to flash your own roms though. Also its worth remembering that HTC have promised us wm6 roms before June. I would much rather have that than a pre-release wm6 rom as the ones that are avaliable for the wizard, hermes etc.
As far as i know, everyone is content with AKU 3.2

well i have used crossbow on my wizard and the only difference i see are pretty icons and html mail. i dont really care about either, and more importantly my herald is very stable, cant remember the last time i had to soft reset never mind hard reset. so thats why i can wait until htc do their thang!
I hear one handed uses on WM6 is way better and that windows update feature looks very promissing.
O2 may be releasing an HTC Herald as O2 XDA Terra, with WM6 on it.

HTC Herald (aka Tmo Wing)
I bought a T-Mobile Wing 2 days ago (obviously it has WM6 on it) Where-as it is stable - I am rather disappointed that they removed the native VoIP support - thus I am waiting for someone to cook a ROM and put it back in so I can do the Hybrid Cell/VoIP thing that I was Previously doing on my Wizard (MDA) - I still have my Wizard which I use strictly for VoIP at home.

Hi all,
Is anybody has news about the upgrade to WM6 for the IPAQ 6915 (official or not)?
The main feature I would like is the sip integration.

So am I. I would be quite happy to see WM6 on my ipaq. Come on, developers!
i am intested also

It would be great cuz Im not so happy with WM5
typical, get shafted by HP again.... shell out close to half a grand on a device you expect that youll get some decent support with it and not for it to become obsolete quite this quickly....
Hp need to stop doing things like this, if the upgrade doesnt come about for the hw6915 its twice that they have done me soon after buying a new device from them.
Whats the score on an unoffical upgrade? The SIP/VoIP functionality for this device is just too good not to have (being a fully paid up vonage /vonage softphone user)

Thanks Dave
6925 & WM6?
Saw the thread,
I've got the 6925 series, and the Universal WM6 rom. I'd be interested in any unofficial way to upgrade as well. Can someone PM me the info please? Thanks!

usaf-lt-g
I have a HW6945, so I am interest in how you do it and if this worked for you, please feel free to PM me too
=It cannot be done.
it has to be done or i'll trow away this piece of cr*p so called HP 6915.
Cheap plastic covers, lots of scatches.... the only thing that will make me keep it is an rom for WM6.
or i'll try the new blackberry. at least it looks better.
All the best from romania...

Well, dont agree here...
6915 is far best pda i owned... stable, works nice, keyboard is great, everything works as it should just need to customise it...
the plastic is ok until you start to drop it on the floor...
official WM6 will never be on this phone, wait for another 6XXX release with WM6 if you want it so badly...
P.
don't want to star a flame but...
the diference between a Palm operating system and a similar win is huge. never have to close manually aplications that use memory for nothing, avery couples of days i have to reset it. i admint i use it a lot, because is my phone, my navigation, my agenda, my everything. but is not an escuse...
i'll wait for a release ...
are you sure that you know how to use a winmo phone? if you like palm os that much, why dont you get a treo? LOL
well because the only gps software who has good coverage of romania is i-go, and the only version it has it's a win mobile version.
i have a win mobile pda phone and that's it ... i have to use it.
by the way, does anybody tried gps software like igo, tomtom, etc, with wm6?
how it's like?

Sorry but maybe I didn’t get you right
My English is so so
You are saying that you find WM unreliable due to the fact you are not familiar with a 3prt app to close running program when tapping on the O.K. (try SPB PLUS it will fill like palm)
WM by default enable you to minimize and you can run thins in the background
Let's say you want to copy/compare info from a note to your contacts list
You just SW between the apps (there are a lot of uses for running things in background)
Maybe you prefer learning every time a new OS when there is a new device?
The grate thing with WM is that all the things you are used to on your home pc you perform on mobile with the same approach
You just need to replace the mouse right click with tap & hold and left click with a tap
Remember that the default is minimize and if you want to close app you tap on your virtual keyboard CTL then tap on Q
Good luck
Hope I helped
Hello all,
is it possible to upgrade to WM6?
Thanks.
apparently no WM6 ROM and i doubt there ever will be one. There isnt a WM5 for it anywayz so how could there be a WM6 ?!?!
I rather buy a proper WM6 HTC device than waiting for someone to get a wm6 rom for it.
Well... there was WM5 for the XDA.
Anyways, I'm happy with my phone, but I would like them big graphics from WM6 .
Well, if any body hears of anything, please give us a shout.
Ta.
no there was never a real wm5 for wallaby

You are right there was never a WM5 for the Alpine. I had downloaded and installed WM5 on my Hymalya (at that time). My bad.
And of course, I trust that there are people out there working on a compatible WM6 version (right Indra?) and I would be happy to try it if it becomes a reality.
Cheers.
i dont want to have WM6.0,but lookforward to WM5.0 haha,
Well, did anyone managed to get WM5 working?
HTC P6300 is similar to Alpine and it has WM5. Anybody has the HTC P6300 software to try out. I've been lookin' but no luck so far...
Alright, forget the above question, I should be reading the other discussions...
"HTC P6300 is similar to Alpine and it has WM5"
well looking alot like it will not make them that similar
it all comes down to cpu and the whole hardware setup

I just read the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326077. It seems Helmi was able to create a WM6 for the Himalaya (QTEK 2020). It also seems to be quite stable, so let's hope that this guy will help us Alpine users too...
I for one would be eternally grateful!!!!
I have been waiting for it to be WM6.0 till i sold off and get atom
I wish someone would do WM5 for my Alpine
Hi All,
I just brought back my uni after a few months of semi-coma (i will release the details shortly) and now i would love to get my hands on the latest WM5 ROM from any carrier as i want to test my Uni and see if it's truly workable again. I want to use WM6 but too many and not sure which I want to use with issues.
Do pass the info and link if possible.
TQ and regards,
techx
Asking for a Rom (any rom) is a risky business, it usually depends on your needs/tastes, but you can have a look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=376771
Hi Kecido,
I know it's not right to request but I should have asked, what is the latest original ROM uodate released by the carriers at the moment. Was it Imate or TMobile or Orange?
TQ and regards,
techx
btw, i don't like WM6 cos cooked ROM has too many issues.
Now the risky businees is mine, because I'm not such a geek to answer that question, anyway, for universal as far as I know (I can invite anyone else to tell me I'm wrong, please, tell me I'm wrong, er, mmm, just a "lapsus") it should be T-mobile (akku 3.3 I think), and source of the one I pointed for you (better ask to the modder).
Anyway, read and have fun.
Actually I find whe "what's the best WM6 rom for me?" posts annoying. WM5 roms are few and far between these days as most seem to want Wm6 even though it's not 100% functional. So yes in my opinion the question IS valid.
The latest official WM5 rom is the T-Mobile AKU 3.3 available from T-Mobile support websites. The link in the post above is a team effort Matrix Final rom created by myself and SDHC card support added by Bennyen.
There were some issues I didn't like in the original T-Mobile rom like the GPRS connection had to be forced to on and the various nag screens about unsigned apps and the god awful hideous colour schemes that T-Mobile insist on using etc. Hence I developed the rom that suited my needs - I use my phone for GPRS internet use quite heavily so I biased it towards that - and shared it just incase anyone else liked it. I am not saying install my rom. I am saying try out a range of them and find one that suits you as it's you that knows what your requirements are
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info PsiDoc
Hi Psidoc,
Thank you for the reply and I will try, once i get my Uni back from the dead (again, yes i know)
Hope Uni comes back to realty soon.
TQ again.
Techx
Oh dear...
what did you do to it?

Me too (but O2 UK Xda Exec latest rom from O2)
As the original poster (I did not want to duplicate threads) but I am looking for the latest O2 UK ROM for the xda exec. The one on buzzdev.net does not work (i get no errors whatsoever but when it is finished and I do hard reset, press O then the screen goes multicolored and pixeled and nothing happenes).
Anyone has this ROM, it is not on O2 site anymore.
Thanks in advance.
