Hi guys, I've just got a k-jam and want to flash it to wm6 / wm6.1. i have read the guide to upgrading and it seems rather easy, just requires patience and strong nerves , however i'm still unsure where i can get the wm6 ROMs from? url? Also a friend downloaded a ROM and had to re-do it after a week because it had some timer on it? how do i avoid ROMs like this? Im in australia and my carrier is optus, do i need an optus ROM? if i use another carrier branded ROM will it work with optus? Thanks heaps in advance and sorry for my noobiness!!
Hey, welcome to the forums, dther1!
But man, please, use the search function...

Thanks for your help, The second link was exactly what i was after, thanks heaps! I've now successfully flashed my wizard to wm6.1! Thanks Again!

Hi all.
Sorry if this has already been mentioned, but I did a search and could not find any info on this.
I have a t-mobile vario (sim unlocked - using Lokiwiz02). Shop told it couldn't be done, but quite a few of you clever people had already done it, so I did too. All went well, it's now sim free!
However, I prefer the i-mate ROMs and have already got the original i-mate ROM installer ready to go.
Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, is it a straight forward procedure (regular way of upgrading a ROM), or is there anything specific I would have to do and what, if any, are the risks?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Too many late nights!!
So sorry guys!! Wrong Forum!! :lol: :lol:
Have moved this to the Wizard forum
Does anyone have, or know where I might be able to find a Rogers WM5 ROM for the TyTN? Is this even possible to find or am I SOL?
I'm looking for one also
Same here.. I would like to have one onhand just in case something goes wrong with my phone and I need to send in for repairs.
I have the WM6 Rom from HTC's official site installed right now (working perfectly by the way), and not too sure if Rogers would support a return if something went wrong.
Thanks
i just got my new rogers tytn today. I was planning on making a backup and updating ROM. if this is WM5 i will post backup file once I figure out how to do this.
That would be awesome as I am sure lots of here would appreciate a backup incase of warranty triggered
Alright... so I am going to get to this tomorrow morning - but I have no clue how to backup the existing ROM. I see a lot on how to install a NEW ROM, but nothing that I can find about the backup.
Can somebody guide me in the right direction so that I don't screw this up! LOL
Thanks

Bump......
If I am not mistaken somebody has already done this.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_DumpedRoms
I will just have to find out how I check which one i have.
Is there somebody that can do this to the Rogers ROM?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoReconstruct
I believe that will do what you need in order to flash the original ROM back onto your device.
My brain is getting sore from all of the reading about all of this. Sometimes I think life would be easier if I wasn't a "geek".
I'm probably a newb to this, but I've managed to create my own rogers ROM and have it successfully work. The only thing missing my own precompiled ROM was the Rogers splash screen and the Radio which is suppose to be 1.42...
If there is somewhere I can upload the packaged Rogers ROM please let me know and I'll quickly upload it for everyone.
the files in the Rogers rom are all RAW files. how do you load it to your device?

ziadsa, thank you very much. I am looking at moving to a new phone, even though the TyTN has served me well, so I want to pass it on in original condition. Of course, I will be pointing the new owner to xda-developers. The next owner may want more from the phone, like I got.

I now have the original ROMs back in place and it works beautifully, but the splash screen still shows PDAviet.
Does anyone know how to correct this and get the Rogers screen back in place? I know this forum has been quiet for a long time, so if I don't get a response here, I will try with a new thread.
Thanks in advance.

Did you mean 8525? I hope so. If you really mean 8125, then you need to get yourself over to the WIZARD forum. You will have a brick if you flash 8525 ROM onto your 8125.

you can consider yourself lucky you only got an error and not a paperweight....
go to the wizard forum and in my opinion, as a 8125 owner until 2 days ago, flash the TNT 1933 rom.
good luck!
Ditto, the TNT Rom's for the Wizard are amazingly fast and stable!
Yes it's 8125. I guess I'm lucky.
I also have 8525, could I unlock and apply any latest ROM ?
Thanks for any information.

Yeah. Lots of good ROMs to choose from... vp3G, Schaps, Custel (has a new one), you really cannot go wrong with the last batch. Haven't really tried any of the other new ones, but they are all very stable now.
Check THESE GUIDES for upgrade assistance.
Do I need to unlock AT&T 8525 or simply load new ROM ?
Sorry for trouble. New to this stuff.
Thanks

You shouldn't HAVE to unlock it - the updater will do all the work. Check out the guides I linked in my previous post - it wil make the process easier, more clear and safer.
Do U have 8125 or 8525?
I have both. I just load tnt-1933 fro 8125, look cool.
I also have 8525, I need clear instruction for that, I do not like to messed up.
Thank you

Somehow, I doubt it.
There's already a thread on this VERY BOARD, with a nearly identical question. Why, oh why, can't you just actually search first?
In order to get to this board, you had to pass near one that was called Wizard Mobile 6. It's on the same freakin' website as this board!!!
//Sorry, but twice in a row, man. Twice in a row.

Your phone is CID locked,in order to upgrade you got to have it CID unlocked,now if you have G3 device,then follow the unlocking guide and how to upgrade guide posted as stickies in the 'wizard upgrading forum',but if you have a G4 device,it cannot be Cid unlocked,but there's a method 'SoftSPL' or 'HardSPL' in the G4 forum.Read and follow the guides to upgrade to latest wm 6 Roms.
Good Luck

Let me introduce you to your friend...
The Wingster: www.thewingster.com
You can get to the Wing ROM's there with ease! There's flashing instructions there too.
Here are your WM6.1 ROM choices: http://thewingster.com/wm61.aspx
Here are your WM6.5 ROM choices: http://thewingster.com/wm65.aspx
And you'll find flashing instructions on most of the ROM pages, if they are applicable to the simple method of flashing.
Tell me if you need more help.
hey the wingster just wanted to know if the link you left will work for htc herald if you can help id be very gratefull
The Herald and the Wing are one and the same, they just have different keyboard layouts in some versions.

So yes, as he just said, it WILL work for your phone. There's a fix for your keyboard after flashing somewhere on XDA. That's all that's different for you two.
one last stupid question
hey i have one last realy stupid question i have noticed that everything is for t mobile but i live in south afirica and i use Vodacom will that be a problem with the rom or is something gonna bug it all up
plz reply
No. The Herald and the Tmobile Wing are almost identical except for their keyboards. If you have a Herald, flash a herald ROM. If you flash a Wing ROM, then some keys won't be mapped correctly but everything else will work fine.
