I have a 8525 and I need some help.
two things, I'd like to get WM6 and keep all the stuff I have put on it. second, I have no clue how to set the WiFi.
Now here is my question;
would anyone in Brooklyn, NY care to help me out and do this for me? I'll bring the beer! Just one catch... I don't have a computer.
I hate to make this my first post, but kinda had to.
pretty please with a cherry on top!
Read HERE. It will help you alot.
Also MAKE SURE YOU READ THIS!!!
You're welcome in Holland........
i've done so much reading...
but to be honest, I need someone to show me in person so I can understand.
But thanks for the links, I have already used the search.
my offer for beer still stands for help, I'm willing to meet up within NYC.
I get it... does anyone want money to help me instead of beer?
or is it a trust issue because of I'm new guy here?
I'm sure if you were a blond with a couple of nice boobs you had 20 offers already. But hey sometimes things aren't always as we want it

Wait a minute - no one mentioned boobs before. I'll fly in from Michigan if you need help... oh wait... damn. Misread that. Oh well.
Actually, you may want to PM austnsync - I think he is an NY guy. He may be available or know someone.
You guys crack me up!
sorry but yes i'm a man, although i'm blonde with a shaved/bald head I don't go that way. If you want some boobies I'll gladly put some pictures up
hopefully there will be someone will see this cry for help and offer some.
As for credentials, check out itrca.com's forums. I'm a mod and member there for a long time.
So beer and money is not attractive enough and I can't find any hood rats for you... What will it take to get some help?
(watched ''40 year old virgin'' last night)
You want someone to go to your house and set your phone up with WM6 and whatever else you may want? What if after they have left, you run into some huge problem? Are you then going to ask for someone else to come help fix it? I don't mean to sound like an ass but the stuff you want done is really easy. If not having a computer is a problem, then surely you must have at least one good friend with a computer who will let you set your phone up. If so, here are 3 links that should help a lot.
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/
^ This link is a "how to" install WM6
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=355
^ There are newer and better roms in this link here.
Last but certainly not least.. the holy grail of information about anything you could ever want to do to your phone is here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
Basically Yes,
I just got myself a new laptop and now I deffinately need help.
I'd be willing to meet up with anyone who knows how to upgrade my 8525 and get the sync working.
I'm not going to hold anyone responsible for messing up as long as it was unintentional
What I'm looking for is some instructional help, show me what to do and walk away.
I really suck at computer stuff, Really suck!
I have looked through those links and to be honest, it's like a different language
Beer, Coffee, money, whatever is needed to get me some honest help.
Or should I just go to GeekSquad and let them have a shot at this?
So not one person needs some extras cash?
need help totally electronically defficent and i cant spell either lol thank god i have other things going for me lol anyways i need help trying to figure out how to get texts sent to his phone to my phone or what other options i might have to get these texts I desperately need help and i need it now my kids were crying tonight and want mommy and daddy back together so i need the texts to see if kicking him out was right or not and if he has started a new relationship sooo PLEASE just call 717-465-3069
umm really?? perhaps verbal communcation would be the best thing right now.. If you can't trust what someone says to your face then there's larger things to worry about than texts on a phone..
WTF? how is this helping me develop or hack my phone?

wrong forum...mod close this junk...
1. Wrong forum.
2. Not a very good starting post.
3. I'm pretty sure nobody'll help you with "spying."
4. Thread closed.
I'm a linux dev but not a android dev so please forgive the ignorance.
Can we take the work Paul has done and use it against the incredible? What do we need for that to work? a recover image? It sounds like he's gotten it to work with the hboot 0.80(not documented yet). I know the incredible is at hboot 0.77.
I dont know if the hboot 0.80 tricks would work for us since we're on a lower version.
Thanks!

We really need pauls help. He doesn't want to help because he's in the UK. And doesn't have access to one. So..someone needs to talk him into it. Lol. We really need his help. Unless you can find out more about his method and help make a custom Rom/recovery for us.
I might be willing to give up mine and ship it to him(wanting it back of course). If he breaks it, he breaks it..its under insurance.
I'm new to the scene so I don't have any relationship with him to ask as a favor that he try it. If someone could work that side of it..maybe we can get him to work on it.
Wow thatd be pretty sweet. Um talk to someone in the root thread. Someone's bound to know someone or head over too www.modaco.com and pm him yourself. I'm very sure if he wasn't responsible he would love to have access to the incredible. Doubt he will say no. Plus sense gives you the option to authenticate your gmail over WiFi.
idea
Used to read the Eris forum religiously and I had an idea... If he agrees why not start a collection to get an incredible? Five hundred bucks is a lot of money, but not I'd there are fifty people contributing which I'm sure we can swing...that's ten bucks each!
There are some trusted members of this community that might be interested in helping?
What do you think?
I'm going to try and hit Paul up on Irc tonight, but I really don't think his method will work.
Why don't you think his method would work? I know that there are some differences between the two, but its a start isn't it?

which irc is he in?
Because he is using a test img that was signed by HTC, that is why you need a gold card, witch as of right now I believe gold cards are disabled for us. But the way it works is with the gold card you can flash any Rom that is made for your device, ie bypassing carrier restrictions. Because the test Rom he is using has been signed with test keys it will allow you to than flash the update that was again signed with test keys. As of right now there is no way for us to use this method. But I am still going to see if I can get more info, from him. And lastly, we have a cdma device and there roms are gsm, that's a great way to brick your phone real fast, if you could find a way to flash it.
I wonder if the right 'donation' would motivate some developers to get to work on the root
I'm not going down that road again with donating. It just caused too many problems.
I agree donating can just cause a big mess. I am down for however I can help tho as I miss my rooted moto droid. lol

You could donate after the root was made.
I'm sure it's in the works...most like to sit back from the forums and do it in the privacy of a few to avoid being flooded with a million questions that have already been answered or questions about when it will be done.
Patience is a virtue.
Plus I won't be getting the phone for like a month. haha.
hey guys, i think i am trying to to install a new rom. what i am trying to do is dual boot wm 6.5 and android, if thats possible, i have tried searching for stuff, but i get not enough info in some places, and too much in others, here are some links to stuff i have found so far:

can anyone help me out with this? its a lot of info for me, and i dont know what to do/ look at
i have read all the newbie and noob posts out there, so dont tell me to go read them
id like someone to tell me exactly what to download and how to run it to effectivly get android running on my device, dual boot if possible, id like to keep wm 6.5 but also have android. id also like to have a back up rom that is completly "stock" unless a hard reset will erase everything and put it back to "stock" incase i need to sell the device, or just go back.
im sure i am missing a few things, so any help would be greatly appreciated, i really need to get this done, because as of right now, i am not to happy with my device with just wm 6.5 and i cant afford to take a loss and sell it back...
i also may be wrong with some of my terminology, so what i understand is with dual booting i can run wm 6.5 just like i have now and use CHT and stuff, or i can run an android UI like the real android devices?
like i said, any help would be greatly appreciated, and i really need to get this accomplished,
thanks,
PBLeonidus
come on, now one knows how to get android running on their device?
please, i need help with this!
also, how or where can i get a registry editor? preferably a .cab file?
dont worry i got it working. thanks for all the help from those that posted! (obviously being sarcastic as no one posted anything)
if any one wants to know, i used max energy Co0kie Energy ROM
with the latest froyo stone android file thing
and a dual booter, ran into a few issues, but got it working

wow, you expect us to solve all your problems in 24 hours, on the weekend no less? How much do you think we are getting paid for this?
Glad you got it figured out. Next time, you could try posting in the regular hd2 section as well, seems to be more traffic there.

So you're bothered by the fact we didn't give you the answers quick enough, to something that you obviously had the ability to work out on your own? That points to the fact you didn't do enough to help yourself, before posting your question...something the rules here specifically address.

i did several hours of searching before i posted this, and after a lot of dead ends and frustration, i posted the question, but i continued to search after i posted, which led me to my answer.
and i dont think you guys get paid anything, i just would have expected at least one person to post something, helpfull or not, i just found it weird that no one said anything, not even "i am interested in this as well" or something like "good luck" that i see in other posts....
There's nothing weird you just don't have enough patience to wait for replies. Anyways, good to see that you actually utilized the search function. There's a dedicated android on hd2 forum here on xda. You should have posted your question there.

We dont. It was sarcasm. Hes saying hes not getting paid to help you, so dont get upset when you dont get an answer... This is the internet. Dont expect things from anyone. Just relax and wait. Sometimes, depending on the question, it can take days, weeks to get an answer. If you need people to hold your hand and wish you luck, try the Disney forum.

haha, very funny, i know it was sarcasm, i just gave a serious answer...
i didnt expect anyone to hold my hand or give me an answer, i just would have thought some one would have something about something, like i said before, a lot of times people say good luck, or id be intersted in this too... i found it weird that no one said anything. i know you guys are mad because you couldnt understand my sarcasm, and that i was able to figure it out for myself. how come when i needed help no one said anything, but now that i have it figured out, you guys rant about me wanting everything handed to me, when thats not the case?
mods, please close thread, i got the problem fixed, and there is no need for this thread anymore...

and i didnt mean anything negative by this, i wasnt mad at anyone, i was just trying to be a little funny by throwing some sarcasm in there...
i am terribly sorry that you guys have no sense of humor and couldnt understand that... i though forums where supposed to be friendly, and people were supposed to be able to say funny and or sarcastic things without somone jumping on their back...
once again, please close thread.
it's all good in here man. We all just get a little bit of newbieitis where the only cure is to lash out at the newbs.
There is a lot to learn on this forum and by the time you learn it all, your device is out of date.
It seems you wanted to figure it all out in a night. Been using WinMo for about 2-3years now and I still don't have a clue most of the time.
pbleonidus, if that comment was just tongue-in-cheek, then it's all good, no harm no foul. Those types of comments are near-impossible to tell the difference between light-hearted and just disrespectful....and believe me, we get FAR more of the latter type in here...and that does tend to strike a bit of a raw nerve with those here who go to a lot of effort to help others.
So, a lesson in this for all of us: you're apparently not the type of snarky jerk that we run across so often, and we're not always able to generate answers as quickly as you might expect. Cool? Cool.
I'll get this thread closed for you.
Thread closed as requested.

hey guys, im new to this website thanks to a good friend of mine (he doesnt have an xda account but he has knowledge of it). I'm basically interested in XDA because i wanted more to do with my phone (EVO4G) and i have heard the best source of help would be XDA. i've had the phone since its release date and havent done much with it since i've gotten it. Now im convinced to "root" it and see how fun it is. i'm having trouble doing anything i've seen on youtube and i dont want to do anything stupid to damage it, but i'd love to know everything on rooting and the likes of it...anyone willing to help a brother out? LOL
1. welcome newbie..
2. yes you are in the right place...
3. what the hell took you so long?
4. did you see the sticky : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881747
5. yes, there are a lot of members that will help you...but remember .. it is best to do a quick search first.
6. what is your question?
7.. because its lucky!
You want to start on the unrevoke website,than download the software and hboot drivers,you need them to root your phone,without them it will not work.
Sent from my evil evo!!
Yeah man I'll help you out... Rooted my evo before I even made a phone call... You're going to be amazed at how much better your phone is rooted/customized...
The best advice I can give you is to READ... try the stuff out, if you have issues or questions, like dan330 said, search first cuz more than likely whatever you run into has already been figured out. I've been here a long time so I know what will get you help from the people that know what they are doing.
Check out this thread when you get done with the other... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=701245
