Hello :
Does anyone already have the new htc rom ?
Thnks a Lot
L
All the roms we have are listed here, if what you are looking for is not here, we don't have it:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
Great ! We always try to find what is new....i know the wiki....
The idea is to catch the rom somewhere in the world....do you get ???
Here's my take on this:
I believe that HTC themselves are part of the developer block behind the various Operator Hermes releases. I believe they did the DoPod update and they're doing Cingular now. With each progressive update, the list of issues gets smaller, but their own resources are being consumed with operator QA cycles.
That being said and given that the TyTN is HTC's "flagship" version of the Hermes, I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that the TyTN ROM update will be AKU3.0 and will be released sometime after the Cingular 8525 ROM development has concluded.
This is just a hunch on my part, but if it makes a certain (twisted) amount of sense if you think about it. If its true, we won't see the next TyTN ROM until the Oct-Nov timeframe. If its AKU3.0 it'll be worth the wait however. Based on my xp with the new Cingular ROM, I can see that they are stretching AKU2.6 in an attempt to fix the A2DP issue. Its better, but something is wrong with the base Architecture IMO. HTC will really need some fundamental "plumbing" modifications from M$ to make A2DP work well on the TyTN and that is one of the big promises of AKU3.0.
Interesting insight, Sleuth... one can only hope!
I would say HTC is heads down prioritising finishing the ROMs for the several new devices that are coming out Oct-Nov, ready for Christmas. New product completion usually takes precedence over support, especially since we are not providing any ongoing support revenue for HTC.
I'd also say that Tytn has been a buggy and problematic release for HTC. And given that the newer products will have similar internals, HTC is trying to up the quality on these. It's quite a sensible product strategy to release a new hardware/software platform (Tytn being first) to a smaller market (keyboard PDAs must sell less than non-keyboard ones), find out the problems, and learn from these before releasing the products that will reach a wider audience.
That's the glass-half-empty take on this for sure montyA...
That's what working 14 hour days for a software developer will do to ya!
with the Wizard, HTC (or qtek) managed to get out a bug-fix rom early (the 1.67 rom), and then made everyone wait for the AKU2 rom (the 2.x roms) while they worked on the Cingular, t-mobile, etc roms.
bummer that they can't do the same here and give us a bug-fix rom while we wait for the AKU3 rom release...

Don't know if it's been posted as of yet. Being that I only get time for this forum at work, I cannot afford the time luxury to wade through pages of results. My apologies for that...
A coworker and I both have the Titan. I've hacked the crud out of my phone and unlocked so many of those golden features Verizon locks out to spite us.
To the point... With the recent release of the XV6900 we both have developed an interest in it's features. Bluetooth keyboard support, bluetooth storage devices and a slew of other really nice items. But the lack of a built in keyboard and wifi make the phone less desirable...
In short, is there a Kitchen that can be installed to include the merged features of both phones onto the XV6900? Or is the 64 megs of RAM a significant limiting factor?
First, you cannot run a Vogue (6900) ROM on your Titan. There are however, plenty of ways to customize and add features to your device. There are several custom ROMs and kitchens here on XDA, but my personal kitchen of choice is the one from PPCGeeks/PPCKitchen.org. You will have to do a little reading, but there are lots of good tutorials at PPCGeeks, and the whole thing is not difficult if you take your time and follow instructions. The thread discussing the kitchen is here. Also be sure to check out some of the stickies in that forum for additional tutorials and advice. If you have any specific questions, I'd be happy to try and answer them.
Edit: more on point to your specific questions, yes, you can add virtually every feature you see on the Touch to your Titans with the use of a custom ROM. Most of the stuff is available in cabs as well. There is a sticky in the Development and Hacking forum here at XDA that has all the HTC apps.
I'm not a stranger to flashing roms. I've been updating with the DCD kitchens since i got the titan. I wasn't too pleased with the lack of GPS functionality even though the hardware fully supports it.
I'm interested in the extra Bluetooth features if it is even possible. "Settings/system/memory/storage card" has the bluetooth storage option on the 6900, the 6800 lacks this. Is it more a hardware than a software feature?
The touchflow and cube are very well implemented on the touch. Last time i verified it wasn't working too well on the Titan.
There are a few other features I'd like to merge in. The biggest issue though is indeed memory and the lack thereof on the Titan.

Touchflo and cube are working absolutely fine on my Titan.
As far as the memory goes...if you want the extra RAM you're going to have to buy a vogue or wait for the successor to the Titan. The Titans will NEVER get more RAM, nor will there be any way to add more RAM.
this is my passout thread (IE sleep)
DCD or nue?
Which one you think will come out with a new one first? Looked through the bugs for Nue3pre3 and looks like alot (a few which prevent me from going their) as for DCD am using 3.2.6 right now (a few bugs which others have reported but usable overall)
no arguments as to whos is better and what not... just who thinks who will out the next one first (DCD had a leak due to a friend testing for him and nue has been saying hell get 3pre4/whatever out for like the last month, and its been the bigges break in updates that I can remember for the Titan) and being as my MB BIOS and VGA BIOS are now at their latest versions (well MB has a BETA version that ACTUALLY fixes a MAJOR problem i had) and my phone with its lack of memory problem is just begging for an update/flash (and VGA drivers! come on http://www.htcclassaction.org/ finish the drivers already)
Simple as that... (well not so simple... but whatever... im literally going to passout)
Betting On
Im Betting on DCD. They both are very creative but I think he will be the first to come out with a ROM that is new and improved. Who knows he may borrow some of nue's memory saving techniques.... That would really rock.
no2chem's latest blog entry states he is coming out with a combined NueROM3 kitchen (along with Touch Pro/Diamond) for Titan in next couple days. He states he hasn't forgotten the Titan. I'm running his pre3 release now and I like it. Sadly, I'm not nearly as optimistic about DCD releasing anything further. I ran 3.2.6 almost forever and he's the first rom developer I liked so much that I felt compelled to donate to in support of his work. Don't get me wrong...I got my money's worth and more but I think DCD has moved on to other things. In the grander scheme of things I don't think there will be many more (or any at all) 'Titan' releases since the manufacturers are releasing new hardware, etc and our device like all others before it will eventually become obsolete and less interesting which is a shame cuz I really like the Titan. Just my .02
I win!
DCD Has posted a ROM today.
dcd's titan ROM 3.3.4

LOL i hate to totally disagree with you blueglide... but... DCD's rom got leaked a little while back when he was giving it to a friend to test for him! meanwhile nue has gotten the Touch Pro and ever since that nothing else for the Titan has come to light...
also... DCD just posted his new version... LOL

Wow...I called that one wrong....maybe I should express my opinions more often...LOL...can't wait to try it!
lol! you should!
But anyway... as it stands... i dont know the situation with DCD nore do i care to follow it o so well (but i do check this site EVERY day to see if something new is released and what changes have been made, but not only for DCD's rom)
as for nue... hes a bright guy... and very talented when it comes to programming/gfx designing for the WM environment... however... being one of those poor people who cant afford to upgrade to the TouchPro... I kinda feel like nue has been a MSFT developer (WM on Mogul) and all the sudden upgraded to Linux developing (WM on TouchPro) and therefor quality of/existance of work for the titan will diminish more then it already is
(i hope that explanation was easy to follow... basically Mogul VS Touch Pro in the hardware aspect since nearly 80% of everything meant for the Touch Pro will NOT work on the Mogul ex: QVGA v VGA)
2008/12/31 11:01 (EU team) I understand that some users are having difficulties with a so called lag in the usage of Tomtom and Touch Pro. HTC does not have any upgrades in order to disable the lag of updating the position to the Tomtom application. Tomtom is indeed a third party application and I would therefore recommend you to contact them to see if they have any fixes for the so called lag issue
2009/01/21 16:11 (EU team) Dear Mr. Skaryd I just wanted to get back to you in order to see if you have gotten the GPS working better. I would also like to inform you that there will be a ROM upgrade available in the near future (1.19). Please feel free to get back to us at any time if you have any further questions or queries. Kind Regards Dave Montanya HTC Europe
2009/01/22 07:57 Alexandr Skaryd Hello, i got reply from TomTom, they claim the problem is not on their side, since they and other software producers like iGo etc are getting similar messages from users all over the world. The problem persists, it could be improved with some registry hacking aparently / as claimed on web, but i didnt try those. Anyway good to hear there is a rom update on the way.
2009/01/22 09:06 (EU team) Thank you for your reply, I have personally looked around on forums etc in order to see what the root of the issue is. Some claim that a registry change or a patch to the application (tomtom) will solve the lag issues. It doesn't seem like there is a universal solution as for now. I, myself is awaiting the new ROM as well for testing with GPS software. Feel free to get back to me if you get any further info. I'll get back to you if I find a great solution. Kind Regards Dave Montanya HTC Europe
This is my correspondation with HTC support team. Aparently there is a new ROM for HTC Pro incomming, so maybe we are getting a fix for some of the bugs, maybe even the GPS fix. So lets hope someone actually WILL try the ROM when its available and inform the custom ROM users if anything was fixed.
Let's hope that your "friend" at HTC Team isn't bluffing...
Sure it would be good to see HTC doing their work as they should!
To market a device like the TP with lots of bugs and flaws is incredible...
But that's the reason foor xda-developers existance...
they promised me from november they said end of dec 2008 there will be an rom. only bluff
But... only for Pro? Diamond has the issue as well...
don't expect too much
diamond got 2.0X and probably sooner or later TP will get the same treatment (nothing major)
I amazed at how other poeple seem to be able to get HTC Europe to talk to them; they hardly ever reply to me. What's the secret?
Thanks for trying, and thanks for the info Skaryd : )
someone knows when this official ROM will arrive?
hope there'll be a german suport as well as the engligh one
greetz
Don't worry guys. I will flex my raging pectorals and they will have no choice but to fall to their knees and develop the drivers we need, lest they incur the wrath of an epic man-chest.
Or in other words, we're boned.
this sound like back in the day when the CEO/President of HTC responded to all the critics about the lag in video performance of the Kaiser. He promised something will be done to get thing right by March 08 (?). At that time, I said, I would believe it when I see it. It's never happened. So don't get your hope too high.

does he mean ROM version 1.19?
i got my TP a week ago, it has rom version 1.90.707.4 WWE
which is much later than 1.19
but displays the gps lag.
the rom date state 8/23/08
which is prior to the date HTC said they would be releasing a new one.
i'm confused!
Here is to crossing fingers and hoping that HTC has finally realized they can't be this big and popular now and have crappy working features.
we already know about the new ROM as it has already leaked:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478657
MY GOD, people the fact that the "Fail: <reason for continuing the argument>" line was used here makes this thread worthy of closure alone.
Dont start poluting threads with this crap, keep it relevant and check sources before coming out with stupid comments.
Back ON TOPIC and keep this civil please.
End of lecture, handouts available on the way out
My mistake on the date, which apparently in DD-MM-YYYY, if you look at the last few posts, it can easily be mistaken as MM-DD-YYYY.
thanx for sharing the info ... hopefully the new release would fix some bugs
I have searched the forum, but I found some people saying I can do that. Some said the FUZE has different hardware and cannot be flashed into HTC official firmware. Which is the correct answer?
If I really can, what else should I beware of? Any thing will not work after the flash?
Thanks.
Yes you can...
For starters your keyboard mapping will be wrong, but that is easily fixed by any number of CABs you can find in the forum. You also won't have any of the AT&T special apps.
I guess the real question is "why"?
If you're going to go through the effort of flashing, it makes much more sense to flash in one of the cooked ROMs that offer more features.

I agree with Rob - Why would you want to? Unless say you are modding it to include the front facing camera and want the rom to be able to take advantage of that. Other wise you will have to jump through hoops just to get it to work.

Because the original HTC rom is thoroughly tested and, HTC did make it since they made the hardware i believe they know the best software for it as well.
No offense to the cooks and all but I have not come across a faster, smoother, bug-free rom than the "Asia Build 20764" released on march 16th.
Even though I like the cool look aof the custom roms thereis no competing with the performance of the original HTC roms.
I agree with Stalix. I personally just prefer the official HTC firmware. Apparently, HTC know their hardware and have working with their software in this field for long, they should have a more stable firmware. And I personally hate to see at&t logos in my phone.(does FUZE have those logos?)
Same idea when I install my PC, I would install Microsoft official version not those modded version. They may have bug or viruses due to their experience of modding.
So on the forum what kid of key word means it's official HTC firmware? I have seen hundreds of firmware here.

They also do not turn on certain features. Take a look at all the power management features you can turn on with Advance Config. They skip out on a lot stuff so then they do not have to support it. If you have more things to support then you need a bigger support staff which is more money out the door for them...A ROM (like mine) based on an official release can be much more faster, stable and more enjoyable than a OEM ROM. Look at the TytN II...it can use the YouTube app fine but why do they not include it...

Let's recall that approx 10 months ago, the big breakthrough in this community for stable reliable 6.1 TytN II ROMs, was the release in May of 6.1 WWE by HTC. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.
Nothing wrong with checking out (or using) the stock releases...
How can I revert cooked ROMs back to OEM HTC ROM?
thanks
I have done the flash!
Yeah I have done the flash to my fuze and the UK rom is the best way to go. I love the boot screen saying Touch Pro! You will definitely need the keyboard fix as stated earlier. You will need to find a UK serial so you can grab the rom. There is one in the xda archive. Also, get a calculator cab because the stock one is not always the best. They are also on here. When flashing the HTC rom it will take a couple of more minutes than the others. Mine was stuck on 11% for a 2 minutes. But it will complete beautifully. So also It is very stable. Let me know how you like it.
US 3G Effected?

Yea but you have to also realize that all "cooked ROMs" are based off an official build in the first place.
Take a look at the ROMs available now for the KAISER; they are much better and much improved as developers are able to port updated applications to older devices, improving their performance, and functionality.
If HTC Software was so great, developers wouldnt be looking at other 3D drivers from devices such as the Omnia or the ATI 3D drivers, to improve their devices.
EDIT: To answer the original thread makers question, yes you can flash an HTC ROM to your Fuze provided you have HARDSPL'd your device first. The only thing you would need to change is the keyboard mapping which can be done by a .CAB

This. HTC might "know thier hardware" but that's exactly why you take their official ROM and modify it. Then I have my Fuze settings without running keyboard customization, better apps and tools that aren't in the official ROM, and tweaks to make it even faster. Best of both worlds.
i dont deal with cook Roms anymore, I got out of that business since the MDA Wizard.
Since then I have owned the Treo 750, ATT 8525, HTC TYNT II, and now the FUZE (touch Pro) and I have sticked to official release ROMS.
Its a personal choice really. I have had great experiences with Official Roms and I can do all the tweaks and add all the cabs my self.
So sad to see this Fuze forum flooded with so many cook ROMS. Everybody wants to be a Chef these days. I just feel bad for all the new bees coming in here and can't even decide which ROM to use

so where would a 'newb' go to find a nice stock rom that isnt cooked? seems like all the roms here are cooked to some extent or another.
No worries with flashing Touch PRO HTC roms or cooked roms on the ATT Fuze
I am currently using WM6.5 for the Touch PRO on an unlocked Fuze with a Canadian 3G provider with ZERO problems !

go to the Raphael Wiki page and will link you to the proper page for download
3g settings and link!
First off the rom for official download will be found at the following:
www.htc.com/europe
Then you will need the UK S/N code which is as follows:
HT833K018918
This was in the archive much props to who uploaded it however I will repost it as to the fact it was not easy to find. This will give you the UK rom! I love the video that plays at the beginning! It is great with battery life as well! So then grab your fuze keyboard fix and it is as if it were always a touch pro!!
Cheers and enjoy!
Sandman!

Well it is a ROM DEVELOPMENT forum. Having choices is kinda the point since which ROM to use is personal preference. Personally, since UC works well, I change between them quite a bit.
I've been using my advantage happily for the last few years and hadn't even noticed that T-mobile UK had released a new ROM "RUU_Athena_TMO_UK_1.12.110.6_1.32.00.00_Ship" from my current "Athena_WM6_TMUK_2.35.110.4".
Has anybody tried this run as I'm reluctant to upgrade if there is no significant benefit? I do currently have a problem with upgrading .net compact framework 3.5 for this (Auto Active Sync Bluetooth developers program) but I think more to do with the installation location needing to be on a SD rather than in the main memory.
Anyway it would be interesting to hear if there are any AMEO/75xx/Advantage users still enjoying their smartphone.
Any help appreciated as there seems to be no information at the T-mobile download website regarding the change log in this ROM. In fact I rang them and they told me to ring HTC which I did. HTC told me that the hot fixes on their website could not be applied to the T-mobile AMEO and that I needed to contact T-mobile of their ROM was specific to their requirements from T-Mobile requests to them for fixes.
Returning to T-mobile technical support they then told me that their internal developers do not give a list of fixes in the ROM and that if I wanted to try the ROM on my own risk it was up to me! I then told T-mobile technical support that in previous ROM upgrades they had in fact provided the change log and list of hot fixes and I was told by the technical support manager that T-mobile policy had changed and they would no longer be providing support or non-specific ROM changes and if anything wasn't broken on my AMEO not to apply the ROM.
What a joke, I now vow never to buy another T-mobile branded HTC product and I'm hoping that you guys can recommend going directly HTC for better technical support in the future? No rush and waiting for snapdragon products below are believes 1 GHz processors and possibly moving over to android OS as Microsoft's agnostic stance with regard to service providers stifling upgrade policy has left a bad taste in my mouth for the last time.
In the meantime any help on the RUU_Athena....0.6 latest ROM functionality would be greatly appreciated.
Hi there !
Actually Htc worldwide gives u lousy service - that's a fact seeing numerous complain of unfriendly services from Htc - if u flash any rom besides their official ones . They dont like to give or share advise on other roms . But without xda and other forum developers , i think we wont buy Htc as a first choice . This is something we have to live with it if we wants to flash and enjoy different roms - no choice at the moment unless some brand can come up with a more stable pda phone !
on HTC
HTC has very poor after sales service support. The problem is that they are only interested in selling you new phones. They are not keen to upgrade the rom to make the machine better. This is one reason why they will fail. Its quite sad that they have a headstart vs iphone. But now they are losing their shirts to iphone
