Yeah I've got the same problem. I much prefer the original WM 2003 2nd edition dialer skin but apparently it's not possible to get that particular skin separately...... you'd have to hard reset your device and prevent the o2 customizations from installing.
Really annoyed... such a wonderful ROM and then they ruined it by having that hideous O2 dialer skin....... ggrr.....
Try XDASKINCHOOSER

help me please ever since norton 2003 delted my cooked v4.00.11 rom that used to work perfectly i made myself another rom but this was on yorches kitchen using v4,00.05 and i have set the device to uk and right area/country codes in the options of phone book and regional settings.
but when i have a contact stored in the phone as say +44726162121 i click it to add to recipitents for the text and itll do 44726162121 instead of +44726162121 missing the +
anyone figured out about how to sort this becuase its doing my head in.
ive used v4,00.05 cooked and v4.00.11 uncooked but still being stupid
anyone got an answer to this cheers.
gaz
missing '+'
Hey Gaz
I had the same thing with my xda I, each time we tweaked the rom, I started replacing + with good old-fashioned '00'
Annoyingly this has happened on my xda II as well! But I'm told that there's an upgrade to fix this somewhere so there is hope.........
Good luck!
yeah weird thing is v4.00.05 and v4.00.11 never used to do it to me on my other 2 xdas ive had just this one?!?! i updated to v4.01.00 tmobile s/w and it now puts +44 on which is cool but i dont get it coz the old versions used to work the same way too? weird
hey all! i'm currently waiting for my 3125 to make it to my doorstep (it shall be my backup until i get my 8125 apart and determine which lcd screen i need to buy to fix it -- don't let truck tailgates come down on your lcd screen, you'll get angry...)
so, what roms are doing what for people?
so far, i've been able to dig up scattered around the net (which is funny, considering the m$ note on the ftp about no devices on the market have wm5 offered, so its proprietary now, take down and destroy....):
ruu_star100_1.02.251.1_qtekeur_ship_r2.exe (think its the buggy one, missed calls and all that)
ruu_star100_2.4.502.0_02.45.30_cws_ship.exe (htc support's current (illegal?) offering for the cingular/at&t customers)
ruu_star100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_qtekeur_ship.exe...
I'm sort of in the same situation as I have a 3125 on the way to replace my 8125...
I'm going to use the "RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship" ROM as it seems to be the latest available and I was able to pull it off the FTP last week.
I'd still be interested to know what everybody else is running though
i'm also using the "RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship" ROM and don't have any problem, stability, not too slow...
yeah im using the Qtek8500 ROm RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship
On my Cingular 3215.
This is the only clam shell WM5 device in the world yet it gets no love. No one doing new ROMS or anything. I have the HTC Wizard and I swear they come out with new ROM every week, sometimes more expecially with the whole WM6 ROms.
hmmm. i've been scanning through both xda and spv forums to figure out the best way to go about cooking up a rom. christ, xda is a mess to look through, but so far i think maimach's tools may do the trick. at least the thread seems to give hope :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294489
as to how to pull the nk.nbf or nb out of the rom.exe, i'm retarded (extract it with winrar someone said... ), this thread could work too...- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=238945
i've been looking into this for a few days, and my head is starting to hurt (should go medicate...)
anyone else have any suggestions as to how to go about?

Well, the app unlock went fine and the 'RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0...' ROM went on without any probs (didn't bother to SIM unlock as I'm a Cingy customer anyway)
Would love to get my hands on a copy of ClearVue though as this ROM doesn't seem to have it and the Cingular one did.
Anybody??
BTW, love this phone!
I've answered my own question.... plenty of apps here, including ClearVue and some other cool stuff:

I can't seem to find this ROM on the ftp server anymore
ftp://xda:[email protected]_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship.exe.
Can someone please uplaod this again, I want to put it on my new 3125 sexy phone )

insomnia - I just dropped a copy onto RapidShare:

Don't forget to application unlock your phone first
Thanks a bunch donshula, I am downloading it right now.
So, what are the differences between the 3.6.251.0_02.67.30 and the 2.4.502.0_02.45.30 one? And why are so many people using the 3.6.251.0_02.67.30 one instead?
I've got the 2.4.502.0_02.45.30 as from Cingular and can't say I've had problems...
Would installing the 3.6.251.0_02.67.30 one cause issues because it has some different hardware?

No probs, I have the Cingular base ROM as well if you ever need to go back to it.
thelostsoul - I wouldn't be able to tell you the differences between the ROM's but generally, the newer the ROM, the more bug fixes and better stability is my guess. I do it anyway because I love to fiddle !
A downside of the non-carrier ROM's is that they don't always have the same software; 3.6 doesn't have XpressMail and the ClearVue suite for example.
Oh and no issues putting the 3.6 ROM on a Cingy 3125. They share the same base hardware components from what I understand. A few of us have done it without issue (if you follow the instructions properly) and the 3125's actually have more ROM than the Qtek 8500 so no worries on space.
how come I am getting invalid vender error when I am trying to install that firmware? I ran surreal networks app utility and rebooted.
Doesn't sound like you went through the full application unlock process. I followed the guide in this post to the letter (#2) and it worked.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292936
One thing I found was that when doing the regedits in step 1, your initial registry entries might not be the same as his - doesn't matter, just make sure you change them to the values damird lists.
Also for step 3, the file you want to download is the one at this link:
http://nah6.com/~itsme/download/itsutils.zip
- get one of the later ones and you have to start adding arguements to the pdocread command.
Hope this helps
thanks! it worked and now I am running the Qtek Rom which seems less buggy and a little more responsive. Have not experienced the missed call problem either. Now all I need is some good software to fine tune this puppy! maybe some good ring tones!!!!

Thanks for your response donshula!
Anyway, out of curiosity, has there been any word of a possible wm6 upgrade for the startrek?

No idea, there's a wm6 beta floating about for the S620/Dash but I've not heard anything about the 3125. I'd love to get my hands on a proper copy...
Point 3125 unlocker
Zetajunkie point me in the direction of the sim unlocker (free) for the 3125.
PPPLLLEEEAAASSSEEEEEEE!!!!!!
Trini
@ trini
the sim unlocker i was thinking of errors out (the spv-tornado one). if you don't want to call cingular to get it unlocked (free?) or pay the 20-40 bucks US that various companies charge, all i can suggest is to keep a look out on spv-developers.com. some helpful **** there (that's the site that we can thank for our cid-unlock). i don't know how responsive they are in questions, considering i haven't been able to post there ever (i registered, but i never got my permissions to post topics enabled for some reason)....
a good place to start looking there though is

It seems to be a risk that you have to be willing to take. If you do upgrade though make sure that you are aware of the bugs that each ROM has some have a few and others have more, it takes reading 1000+posts to know. Your employer will know if it is a new ROM, before you hand it back in you would have to downgrade to the original ROM that came with the phone. As for the outlook account, you need the settings if it is setup for push mail, this could cause some headaches setting up.
Use extreme caution as this belongs to your employer, but in the end up to you.
Knowing my luck I think I would probably run into trouble
I will give flashing a miss for the time being - Thanks very much for quick response
Now, let me think. Lets use a little bit of common sense here shall we?
If you were given a laptop from work, would you remove the Windows installation that it came with and install Linux?
If you had a company van, would you remove the company logos from the side and advertise your brothers window cleaning firm instead?
If you were given a company uniform, would you remove the logo from the jacket and wear a Greenpeace badge instead?
Just think about it a little first, before posting such ridiclous questions to this forum!
Hello all, new here.
I just bought a brand new HTC Touch Pro a few days ago. I absolutely love this phone. There's just one little issue I'm having with it...
I'm trying to make the interface/theme/desktop/wallpaper/whatever just like it is on the HTC site. I don't even know what that theme is called or where to find it, it didn't come loaded on my phone. Anyway, here's the problem... I've loaded up a bunch of different themes and stuff, some TF3D some not, and no matter what I load up the TF3D interface/theme always remains this ugly pale green Alltel branded skin. The menu bars and fonts and stuff will change with whatever theme, but everything in the middle in the TF3D area will not! HELP!!! What do I have to do to fix this?
Also, I went to the HTC site and tried to do the ROM update (I currently have v1.05), entered the SN and it said: "Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
So in summary, I need help with the following:
1) What's the theme on the HTC site called and where can I find it?
2) How do I get rid of the ugly Alltel TF3D skin? (I can provide pictures of what I'm talking about if it'll help any)
3) What's up with the ROM update? Can I get it from somewhere else? Should I do it at all?
I would be most grateful for any and all help you all can provide!
Thanks in advance!
I would recomend unlocking the phone and reflashing with the stock Alltel rom found on PPCGeeks. It has the standard black and white interface and everything is preset to work with Alltel.
I have the Alltel flavor as well and while you can get the different themes and skins to work, I could personally never find one that was really perfect (black text on a black background in weatherforcast... no green highlight... etc.)
I'm using NFSFAN's WM6.5 CDMA Rom 105 (all though the Alltel stock rom I mentioned would be great also if you want to stick with windows mobile 6.1)with the TF3D1 interface and It's perfect and I don't know if it's just me but it seems to run faster when it's just as is with a new rom instead of trying to stick a skin or theme over the exsisting nasty Alltel gray blue mess.
Just my 2 cents.
On a side note if you do decide to go with a new Rom and need help just let me know, I'd be happy to help. (trust me I know how horrible the Alltel theme is and anything to help a fellow TP user get that crap off the phone is the least I can do)
Thanks a bunch! I'll be sending you a PM here soon. Have a lot more questions.
I have a Cingular 3125 I just bought to tide me by, since my 8525 took a dump, and would like to upgrade to WM6.1. I ran the application unlock program and went through the supercid process, but is there a way to check if the process/application was successful? I didn't receive any alert saying such. BTW: I'm using a PC with Vista Home Premium.
What is the most stable WM6.1 ROM available for this phone? I know there have been bluetooth issues with some, which I can't have, since I use my phone a lot while driving (work related).
Also, I'm really not put off too much by the WM5 OS, but I'd really like to have the threaded SMS back. Is there a stand alone application that would allow me to add this to WM5 (if I end up keeping it)?
Add threaded SMS to WM5

I'm surprised there hasn't been any reply to your post in the months since . . .
Yes, there is a little program you can run to verify application unlock - I can't remember the name of it or find it ATM.
Yes, there is a threaded texting program, called Extreme Text - works very well. http://www.birdsoft.biz/extremetext.htm
Thanks for the response, but I'm pretty sick of this phone already. I haven't upgraded the OS to 6.1, but I can't see it being much better than it is. Wish my 8525 didn't chew through batteries like it does!

Well, I think the StarTrek is a good second phone, 6.1 does make a big difference IMHO so maybe just give it a try. . . I'm very happy with Erofich's 6.1
Well, I guess I could give it a try.
I've flashed my 8525 several times and that was very easy. Sounds like this 3125 is a bit of a pain to flash. Would you mind clarifying the steps and recommending a 6.1 ROM?

I followed the steps in the first and third stickies: Application Unlock first, then CID Unlock. Particularly I followed the clear advice in post #12 of that thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1124770&postcount=12
Here's an amusing aside, RE: the build quality of this phone. I had loaned mine to my daughter's boyfriend, he set it on a table and lay down to take a nap. He heard it vibrating and ringing as a call came in, looked up and saw it vibrate itself right off the table and fall toward the floor. But at the exact spot it fell, there happened to be a glass full of water stationed - the phone fell kerplunk! right into the glass of water. He grabbed it out, pulled out the battery and SIM card, dried it the best he could, let it sit a couple hours, then reassembled. It works perfectly!
I have Erofich's 6.1 installed on that phone, this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374397
But I think I'm going to give DJ's 6.5.3 a try soon.
Good luck!
Well, I've got to say "you were right." I flashed my phone with WM6.1 and it made a world of difference. I'd be interested in checking out the WM6.5, but I haven't been able to find a version that'll run on this phone. You mentioned something about DJ's version; where might I find that?
BTW: Thanks for your input on this thread.
