DOES **GPS** Work On Hermes?

I have a cingular 8525, and theres people talking about loading tomtom to there 8525, is the GPS function working on it? seems like there is drivers on here for it? and people trying to get it to work? Anyone can give me any info without me going over 70 pages of peoples comments?
Thank you.....and a Thank you for all the people cooking the ROMS...Lets see at ATT/Cingular ROM with Windows Mobile 6.......

Come on man, just read the last few posts out of the GPS threads and you will know. It does not work yet, the software is there (supposedly) what is needed now is an antenna.

If you're not willing to familiarize yourself with the GPS threads, then please just go out and buy a bluetooth GPS and save everyone some time.

thank you
I expected this response, But allot of people have the same question this just makes it simple......Who wants to carry their brick looking hermes and a brick gps module? NO ONE.... but thnak you for the replies....it is very appreciated

If you can't be bothered to read the threads than any attempt you make at enabling gps is likely to result in a brick. So why bother ask?

I think this is a great question as I have been a member of xda for a while now and I don't feel like reading through all 70 pages either simple question why not answer the question without making him feel like a d!ck not working yet man when it does work it will be added to the stickys

Pfff then we would get this question everyday. people should just read the last pages! Or else we get stupid questions every day.

Hi, how do I flash my hermes?
why are the roms not on the ftp?

Gentlemen please. You know what I like about XDA-Dev, compared to some other places, is the generally very helpful and polite manner of the posters. Sometimes something can really wind us up and showing a bit of irritation is fine but now we've shown that let's think how we avoid this problem in future.
Firstly if there is already a thread on a subject it should be used to post a relevant question. So a question about GPS should not be in a new thread like this one.
Secondly, I agree with the above poster who said - you only need to read through the last few posts , not all 70 pages, to know roughly what is happening.
Thirdly, you may get away with far more slightly cheeky things if you ask politely and with a measure of humour.
Lastly, as someone above said sometimes it's just easier and more peaceful to give a very short answer to a "cheeky" question whilst perhaps also pointing out that next time the person might do a bit more work to get the answer.
Peace and Love

I can manage to Flash my arse - if that's any help?? Last time I did it though someone gave me a boot up it which made me **** a brick. So I guess you might say I got stuck in bootloader mode and ended up with a brick!!!???

@mikechannon: good point. nice pic. very amusing.

You all are right probably... but why are there 3 threads???
And why are there 4 threads about WM6???
Both my favorite subjects, so I always have to read 7 threads...
Yeah I know, I don't have to if I don't want to. But I want!
But still: maybe some more moderating???

Worth a haiku I think.

ROM Discussion & Suggestions HERE!

Hello Galaxy Peeps!
I am new here on this forum, this is my first post. I have been reading a lot on this site the last couple of weeks, and have found plenty of useful and essential information for my new baby! You guys (devs and members) ROCK!
On to the subject, which is the reason why I registered so that I could start the thread.
Here is where I currently stand:
SGS2 from BELL Mobility in Montreal Canada.
**Stock ROM is UGKG2. (I am aware that this matters very little)
**GINGERBREAD 2.3.3 out of the box.
I have already experienced a little bit with upgrading the firmware via Odin to a more recent official samsung build:
RUNNING ON:
XXKH3 ROM (stock)
GINGERBREAD 2.3.4
Rooted with CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KH3-v4.1-CWM4
Launcher: SPB Shell 3D (absolutely beautiful and buttery smooth!! totally worth the $15... simply the best, no doubts in my mind.)
I have never used CWM to flash an update, only used it for backing up and restoring so far. I do feel very comfortable diving in though with all that I have read here so far, and deem myself ready to try some Custom ROMS. They sound great!
The only thing holding me back is that I do not want to flash endlessly to find out which ROM is the best for me. I read up all the threads about the different ROMS, however I find it very difficult to find comparisons between them and picking the right one.
So basically I would like to start this discussion and have you guys tell us what you picked for yourself, and most importantly why you like your choice. The more details the better!
This I think would be a great help for people like me and in my situation, I know it will for sure help me tremendously.
Thanks guys, and keep informing the world about SGS2. Best device out there by far, all platforms mixed in...
Raz

Post number ten asking yet again whats the best rom????

Yes, it was modded (not by me I hasten to add) to get the battery stats showing on VillainRom.

So you don't think that this question/invitation for discussion hasn't been asked a gazillion times already? In all the reading you say that you've done, you haven't come across other noobs posting the same things? No? Don't believe you; you clearly haven't read enough.
My advice? Don't use your 1st ever posts like this. Use them constructively. Get a shortlist of ROMs that you feel might be appropriate for your needs and if you have questions, search the relevant ROM thread. If you can't find a suitable answer, then post your question.
In my most humble opinion, this will greatly enhance your XDA experience as you won't get upset when people continuously tell you to search or flame you for being a noob. Some XDA users can be very intolerant.
In all honesty though, unless you're looking to switch to MIUI or Cyanogen, there isn't an enormous difference between the ROMs on offer. Mainly the themes and tweaks that the chef chooses to apply, but the base ROMs are essentially very similar.
I started this post with the intention of shouting at you for being imbecilic. As I wrote though, I realised that you were fairly literate and seemingly bright so I thought I'd go easy on you instead. I'm normally not this nice.

Yes about time we had a juvenile section for this forum .

[Suggestion] or maybe it can be done already. Being used to honeycomb on my Iconia I like the ability to move to another home screen just by touching the left or right side of the screen instead of swiping. Is this possible?

How's everyone doing?
Thanks for the replies guy, although not entirely what I was looking for... I guess to be expected with such a noob question after all I do admit to being guilty of being a noob when it come to Android and SGS, I just got my device not so long ago, coming from Samsung Omnia (WM) for a few years. Understand guys, I am not looking to get flamed here, just for a bit of advise coming from your experiences. I do understand where you guys stand, and I am sorry if I offended anyone... it was never my goal.
So far I am LOVING my new Droid!! I may not know so much when it comes to custom ROMS, but I am learning steadily when reading the posts on this site - @Major_Sarcasm yes I do read... I appreciated still the clarity and respectfulness of you reply -.
Yesterday I ended up flashing the LeoMar75 Revolution Rom and I like it up to now. It is great and is user friendly when it comes to customizations since you can use the Revolution kitchen app to download and install MOD packages. Awesome for a noob like me! I didn't even wait for any replies because I was too excited and wanted to flash ASAP on my time off, since I had already done a lot of browsing already at work. For now I think I made the right pick, and will not try to flash a different ROM, unless someone here tells me I messed up with my choice.
Finally I know many posts have been put up already for which is the best ROM out there, but if you "read" carefully my post was not entirely about that... in fact not at all!!! I stated the fact that I didn't want to try all the available ROMS out there to make a pick (too much work too little time)... that is one thing. I never anywhere in there asked what is the best ROM to use. What I was really asking is for you guys to share which you are currently using, and the reason why you like it (features, performance, etc...) or reasons why you may not like it and may want to switch back to something else. It was intended more as a discussion than a question. As you can see I already made my choice!
Again I hope I am not offending anyone, I just want to make sure I was thoroughly understood here
Hope you guys are having a great time with your babies, I sure am!
Cheers,
Raz...

Sounds good.

I think this would be a great thread if the flaming were to be non-existent.
I personally have been using Litening rom all the while, 5.0 first then 6.1 now. Satisfied with it, but I'm someone who gets bored easily so I am thinking of switching to something else. I'm also really sick of the battery life my phone offers, hopefully flashing a different rom might improve it. (I doubt so though, lol)
My main concern now is wiping - I hear its recommended to do a full wipe before flashing to other roms. So I have to do a full backup with CWM and Titanium Backup?
Deciding between LeoMar, Cognition and CyanogenMod...

Well guess what? No one has enough time to try them all out, that's why 3 of these threads pop up every day from people like you.

[Tribute]XDA Developers | Rom Helper

First of all, I'd like to thank all the developers of the XDA community and especially all people who made Rom-modding even possible.
The mirror effect
You are a 'Probably' a noob
YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL
More Info: Why am I a noob?
The general Idea of XDA!
User:
Getting the hotest, smoothtest and best phone
Developer:
Creating the hotest, smoothtest and best phone
User contribution?:
I am certain that every single Rom that was once out here on XDA had it's on journey and issues to face. Most users of XDA aren't willing to take this journey but they just jump across Rom's as they'd switch there own clothes, just because they saw something better, that 'might' make them look better and even-tough knowing that at some point you can't blame them, 'cause you or me were/are probably the same, I just want to share a thought with you guys.
Appreciation
Do we really appreciate the person behind the Rom? I am sure a certain amount if they ever read this, would just say! YES!, but YOU DON'T. You wouldn't even care or be bothered if the developer of your Rom would pass away or if he or she would have some personal issues affecting the development. THE ONLY THING YOU CARE ABOUT IS YOURSELF
Even I can't deny that, I was an OTA addict like hell, I switched roms like a nut, I flashed modems like a boss and I didn't care about the Rom specifications and I just flashed one Rom after the other, AND I AM NOT SAYING THIS IS WRONG.
I only recommend we should think about, HOW we could return the favor. We should do more then clicking a thanks buttons, who cares about it's thanks rating anyway! We should help them, because they are the ones who can make things possible and we?. We are just the ones that can click a thanks button, but don't give a single damn about any contribution!
[Q] Did you ever donate?
[Q] Did you ever clicked the thanks button, however the advise given didn't solve your problem?
[Q] Did you ever report bugs or were you just to lazy and swithed roms?
[*]How big is your "I" in the XDA Community
Don't be to lazy!, Even YOU can make a difference!​
Help a developer
Take advantage of your ETA update addiction!
If you like to Flash a Rom, try-out mods or just experiment with your phone, put your addiction as yourself to use to a ROM developer, by helping him or her out, to..
Find Bugs
Test a Rom
Review it

If you are a developer, tell us how your Rom will be different and tell us what you need! We've been calling out to you guys for way too long, it's time to return the favor!

If you have any suggestions or ideas how we could improve this, be my guest, I am going to use my second topic probably as a list, where I'll list all the helpers who are available and who are currently working with developers on some projects
I do hope, that main developers or developers who just started creating there Rom, will use this topic to their own benefit, but we'll see

THREAD CONTENT
My motive
My goals
Introduction child-boards
Child boards under my recommendation
My Motive
However XDA is a wonderful community there is still some room for improvement. XDA is great, as so are 'most' of the people around here, but however it's greatness there is still
one thing that does sometimes annoy me, is its organisation..
Let's be honest some people don't know where they should start their thread of where to find stuff, on the other hand most people who do have those problems are mostly plain stupid or are to lazy to search.
Yet I believe, that a little re-organisation will be able to address this matter and makes our lives, as the lives of users, mods or developers a little easier.
Lucky for you guys, I am not the guy that just complains, without constructing or achieving a potential solution.
I already put some hard work in it and I am fully prepared to do even more if necessarily , but before you judge me, please read and see see what I had in mind.
My Goals
Optimizing your User Experience
Creating new Levels of User Potential
Simplifying current structures and its organisations
Smoother, Faster, Clearer and Better
Introducing child-boards
I know it looks plain simple and you can believe I barely made any changes. BUT THAT IS THE KEY! That is my GOAL, keeping things as slim as possible. Still a child board can achieve an immense difference just only in your experience.
Imagine this simple user interface: Where you'll be able find to find a sub-board with ONLY ROM Releases or just everything related to it, so as for kernels.
Still I am perfectly aware that the ANDROID development goes beyond, ROM's and Kernels, YET these 2 elements in my opinion the main reason why people go to XDA, or they create kernels and ROM's or they want to flash them.
~~~ Organisational Problems ~~~​
No offense but isn't this a little weird, that so many people voted, where they'd best place their own thread?
Or is still someone able to tell, where I should fit this topic? ​
Child boards under my recommendation:
Separated Product Model Boards:
Even though people might find it lame, just know flashing the wrong firmware onto your phone, can brick your device,
accidents easily occur and even I noticed I accidently clicked onto the G development without even noticing it after 5 min and however the difference might look minor to some of you.
Why would you put 2 devices in the same area, knowing they require different systems, firmware and work on different hardware, meaning even though they are in the same range, THEY STILL DEFER
General Talk:
News​This community has a lot of potential users, that are motivated and willing to uncover the latest and hottest news for their phone or their device and I am fully aware that we do have XDA Tv.
But still I strongly believe this could be a very very useful sub-forum. Moderators or Forum Staff can sticky their posts to announce new rules or competitions
and only selected members will be able to post news concerning their galaxy s2 or their device, to decrease chances of any spam topics.
So why would we miss out on this potential, why wouldn't we publish a story that for example, AGPS, allows you to get a faster GPS lock or people invented a new script to conserve 50% more battery than usual,
does it really harm anyone, that one story wouldn't be that interesting, as this place could offer you, a pool of different stories that might catch your interest.
Nobody is forced to publish something, neither are you to read, you'll only have the Galaxy S2 knowledge library right at your disposal.
Android Developent:
Seperated ROM & Kernel Board​Wouldn't it be way easier to find all your ROM releases in one place and ONLY them?
Would we even need updated indexes anymore, when this would all be clear and accessible in one single location,
would we even be bothered to posts polls as where should I put this thread as you might have already seen above?
Wouldn't this make your user experience more simpler finding in two clicks whatever you'd like?
I'd certainly vow for this!
ROM & Kernels Separated, everything else, in the android development thread (Applications, scripts, Tweaks, ...

[MINI REVIEW] GingerZaraki for the Xperia x8

I have created this thread in order to my personal review on the GingerZaraki ROM on top of the alfs v08a/v09a kernel for CM7. I have had experiences with many ROMs and have decided to review the one I am currently running on my device. ​Before I begin, I have to mention that, although there maybe other reviews every one is opinionated or 'spiced' differently. I think it is valid that there will be more than one review of the same ROM.
If you have ANY suggestions, please leave them as a post below.
This review will be on the latest version of the ROM - v08.​
XDA renowned ROM author RohinZaraki - along with his team - rolled out his first ever ROM: GingerZaraki on the 18th May 2012. Seeing as a track record was in-existent, many users summoned their fiery mists of doubt. But after reading further, these mists were quickly extinguished. After using the ROM for quite a while, there is no doubt that it is a clear contender for ROTC (ROM of the century). I will cover various areas in which the ROM amazed me and some where the ROM may have disappointed me.
Visuals
TeamZaraki has obviously pulled all the stocks out making a flawlessly beautiful ROM. With many talented themers in the team, the ROM offers bold icons revolutionizing the classic gingerbread 2.3.7 look. The team have also modernized the x8 adding the Xperia Ice theme seen on many of the newer breeds of Xperia devices. Overall, the Zaraki team has done a great job - one would forget that the android base was the old gingerbread if not for the version in settings.
Kernel
If you have any problems with performance on the x8 I can assure you that the alfs v08a/v09a will annihilate any problems you had. Blasting out an Antutu total score of around 2500, you will see a great increase in basic speeds on your device. Again, with a custom kernel, you will be given the ability to overclock and undervolt. I can personally recommend scaling to about 729mhz. The battery performance seemed to be a bit of a letdown though. I was getting one day of heavy use and two days of moderate use. This was a considerable decrease from the ICS ROM I was using previously. However, with much consideration, this may just be a sacrifice for all that extra umph! Also, seeing as you have to install a custom kernel, you must have an unlocked boot loader which is a brick wall for many users. Fortunately, many variants of the same ROM were created in order to allow stock users to enjoy Zaraki as well. :laugh: I do think that users will have to muscle up seeing as the stock kernel is a brick wall for developers trying to port gingerbread+.
Firmware
Gingerbread is like the Windows XP of Android. It is debatably the ultimate android operating system. With that said, I think many crave a higher OS even though it may be beyond the x8's capabilities. A possible suggestion for a next version would be to build the ROM upon a port of jellybean. JellyZaraki? The ICS platfroms will be too slow to really be a deserving update to the series.
Side Note
Even though this is nothing to do with the ROM itself I think it deserves note. RohinZaraki has offered a multitude of tips, troubleshooting guides and screenshots with the thread supporting the ROM. I think that the effort has to be applauded even if it is done in a small senior member post.
Conclusion
I believe that the experience provided by GingerZaraki is one that will set very high expectations for ROMs to come. But with producers like TeamZaraki I have no doubt that the bar will be raised with every release. I do not believe one thread is enough to highlight all that is good with the release but I will take the opportunity to thank Rohin and all the team for the release on behalf of the x8 community.
Rating: 9 out of 10
I have spent quite some time typing this review, please do not troll. All suggestions on the other hand are more than welcome. Please hit 'thanks' if you appreciate my massive effort. Sorry if this is not something you wanted. Even though the guide is long, I call it mini because it does not cover everything.
Special Thanks to RohinZakari and all the guys at TeamZaraki. (Chris95X8, SpyderX, nazz.rule, lucastan96, AckeflyRzyle, Lloir)

I have a suggestion Deftone. Why dont you just make 1 thread for all your upcoming review? Like we say its Xperia X8 ROM Review, I know there is already a thread like that but yours ofcourse is different and more infos.. Lets say you have 10 ROMs to review user, more likely will not see your past reviews if those new thread piled up. Another thing if its for RC, all of your reviews will be counted as one even though you created 20 reviews. IMO
Keep it up

Thanks for your suggestion. But I do not want to pile all of my review into one thread. I know that it will be neater but this will respawn the massive issue of too long didn't read. I would like my reviews to be considered as individual editions, like magazines. It will be easier for me to manage as well.
However, I could create one thread That i keep updating with links to all my reviews. And then put a link to that thread in every new review I create. This will solve the two problems you mentioned. Think of it as creating a review network.
I do not really care about RC - if I get it I will be extatic but it seems like it will be a long time before that happens. As long as I serve the XDA community to the max, I am fine.

Good idea but you haven't actually given a review of the rom, or is that coming?
This is more of a history of the rom.

A review is giving your opinion of something in a professional climate. I think I did that. I also think you just read the introduction paragraphs. Any further suggestions, just say. Don't ever feel like I will troll you or anything. I am just here to help.

EDIT: I read the link you provided CtrlAltDellrl. This is in a lot of detail I label my reviews mini because I will not go into that much detail. I just break my review into parts using subheadings so people can skip through it easily. Sorry That I let you down with my review. How about check out my other one of the minicm9 ROM. Tell me what you think. Still a history.
In addition to this, I said the bold icons revolutionize gingerbread. This in itself is a review seeing as I am giving my opinion about a part of the ROM.
Here is my other review. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845638 You sound like you could help me a lot. Sorry for the .gif under the show content. But I was itching.

This is what I "expect" when I read a review..
Cheers..
