Ok, I've searched this site/Google/and 2 other pocketpc forums but I'm running out of time...
My friend was kind enough to let me borrow and testdrive his 8525 that he doesn't use anymore. If I like it and can get it to work on T Mobile, I can buy it...if not, he'll take it back and sale it. Great deal huh?
I've got to make a decision by tomorrow, I've managed to
unlock the device
FINALLY flashed a radio version that seems to work (took 6 tries)
upgraded the ROM
Question: Is there a T Mobile ROM that I can flash that will give me the T Mobile apps/wallpaper/etc? If so PLS post the link. I've found different links that look possible, just nothing that's spelled out in plain English for a noob such as myself. Also, as far as enabling MMS/Picture Messaging, is it just a matter of replacing the AT&T connection settings with the T Mobile settings?
Sorry for the simple question, I'm just out of time.
WM5
ROM 2.15.502.3
Radio 1.47.00.10
Protocol 32.80.7020.20H
Ant T-Mob ROM that's not been adjusted or recooked should have all the T-Mob apps and settngs in, inc internet and wallpapers.
Just search the Hermes forum, thread titles only, for t-mob or t-mobile.
As far as enabling MMS etc, the new ROM will do that. If you want to do it seperately, there is a thread somewhere with cabs posted for just about every country and carrier. Was a while ago but a search'll find it.
Sorry I can't just provide the links but I don't use T-Mob.
These are official WM6 Tmo roms:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337163
I've flashed the UK one, but skipped the tmo-customisation. Its running unbelievable fast!
thank you
thank you much!
I've searched with just about every form of "T-Mobile" I could think of...the results were just a bit confusing. I think searching thread title only would've helped. :-}
I also wasn't certain that the UK Tmo rom was universal as I'm located in the States, but I think you've answered the question. I'll give it a shot...
Check the sticky about HardSPL in this forum. That will alow you to flash any ROM.
THANK YOU!
Got it...did it...now I'm running WM6 T Mobile (from the UK link)
Just have to figure out how to fix the keyboard without having to mess with the registry (a little over my head), now, back to Searching...

well you guys have the newest radio and the only way for us to get are hands on it is for you to dump it off of your phone... the instructions are easy and in the wiki so please help the Xda hermes forum out and dump your radio!!!
You have radio version 1.42.00.00 we do not since we don not have anyway to download that radio since rogers or htc do not offer support/downloads for it yet...
I wish you posted a few days ago. I just got my TyTn, but already reflashed everything. I'll spread the word though, I work for Rogers and know a few people with a TyTn
Will ROGERS be posting any of the updates for the radio and also the settings for internet/mms?
I also have a ROGERS account in addition to my US T-mobile account (since I spend over 10 months in the US).
I have the Softbank version of the TyTN.
Regards

welp rogers as of yet has not posted anything and it normally takes about a month for them to set up support for it. guessing the phone came out about a week ago we have a little time to wait before they post and service rom for it... SO PLEASE ROGERS CUSTOMERS BEFORE YOU FLASH YOUR YOUR RADIO DUMP THE RADIO FIRST...
I doubt it. They usually only post updates, not current. You could talk to Rogers tech support (1-866-931-DATA)and see if they're of any help, otherwise i'm sure some Rogers people will get the Radio up soon enough. Keep an eye on HowardForums, there's a few guys in Toronto on there that may dump the ROM. Also keep an eye on https://www.shoprogers.com/web_auth/downloads.asp?product=Wireless
That's where Rogers would post downloads if they became available.

did you flash your ROM and Radio or just a OS.nb only rom??? check and see what radio is on your phone if you flashed one of the roms on this forum you probably still have radio 1.42.00.00!!!!!!!!
okay, but hold my hand....
I flashed my ROm , but not the radio, it's still 1.42.
How do I dump it painlessly?
I quickly skimmed the wiki and didn't get a quick answer...
that must be Nick. Alex here. I thought you'd be able to help!
i have 1.41
I assumed Rogers would be using some outdated crap, so I flashed everything with the newest i could find. apperently that was a mistake! lol

Once the ROM is dumped he can zip it and up load so that it can be extracted.
thats just the OS.nb correct not the Radio.nb???
nanastas just emailed me. he'll dump the radio tomorrow. he's driving atm. keep your eye on this thread for an update.
sweet I'm looking for the easy way for him to do it if he needs help have him email me at [email protected]
So everything I'm seeing on enabling GPS on the Titan includes these massive ROM updates that change all sorts of things I don't really feel like changing... I'd like to just enable the GPS. Is there a simple way to do this?
I also have the PPCGeekSprintMMS installed and it seems to all be functional, except of course, it won't actually send/receive. I've found only one post between here and PPCGeeks that even hints at Telus server settings, and that poster was asking if that was the appropriate entry... no response either way. Anyone have any suggests, anyone got MMS working with Telus?

GPS is only enabled with the rom/radio update.
I have the P4000 as well !
You must upgrade the radio and use one of the custom roms for the GPS to work correctly. Make sure the phone is unlocked with the new unlocker.
DCD's custom telus rom is very nice ! no filler no killer !
in regards to the MMS... not sure about that one to be honest.

Thanks... was looking at DCD's ROM but it appears to remove a few things that I like, such as the Live stuff, and some that I need, like the Acrobat reader.
Edit: Oops, I see he's got links to re-add some of those... unfortunately they're all on that @$*^#$ RapidShare site and I've reached my download limit... unless I want to pay for the privilege. Grrrrr...
All these threads reference this unlocker and so forth - are there some step-by-step n00b instructions on the site on installing these ROMs? Are these steps performed via ActiveSync, put the files on the phone and run them, or do they need to be run from a card? Stuff like that... I'm not technically inept, but this Windows Mobile stuff is completely new to me, so I'm just trying to catch up

That's the one I'm talking about - tried those settings, they don't work. jobine's post is asking if those are the correct settings but nobody ever replies, that I could see.
Hey guys, just joined your community and the pocket pc community all together.
I just ordered my HTC Nike (Touch Dual) from bell, and upgraded to unlimited data. I am told by others I work with, that romming is 100% necessary to get the most out of your phone.
I am just curious, is there a rom out there that is more heavily used than others? I see quite a few threads for different roms, and I honestly have no idea which one to go with.
To be safe I perfer to go with the flow, and do what everyone else is doing =p So if there is a rom that is considered most popular or has become the standard, can someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
anyone?
I need a stable rom that will unlock the ENTIRE functionality of the device, I have not yet received it, its coming in the mail so im not sure the exact device version.
Its from Bell Canada (I live in canada), and it has WM 6.1 Pro
bump (please someone help me out with advice)
Im from canada so im not sure if it will be a neon or a niki. Bell is my service provider.
What I need most is all the features and applications locked out by bell to be unlocked and the ability to teather with bluetooth to my laptop for high speed.
I'll also be configuring it for ms exchange (Work related).
I have no idea how this rom stuff works or why there are so many or how to choose. All I want is someone point me at a good one for the above needs.
Thanks.
ok i got the Touch Dual version, its a Neon400, perhaps that will help with giving advice.
Thanks in advance!
use new 6.1 rom

Hi,
I'm in Aus and has touch pro (Three Australia) upgraded to Cooked ROM (DNS v15 or something like that) a couple months back and since i haven't visited this site... and now i'm thinking of upgrading (just checking if it's worth doing it) and all i see is FUZE FuZE fUzE everywhere....
I have been researching and it seem they're the same but ATT in USA called it Fuze... am i correct? what is the different? If i upgrade the ROM to fuze will my network still working oketc? what is the benefit and disadvantage of upgrading?
Much appreciated guys!
The Fuze doesn't have the front camera and it works with the US 3G bands.

This has been covered many times before and a simple search would have answered your question. The fuze is the alias given by AT&T for the 3G (GSM) touch pro. You CAN flash a fuze rom on a TP as long as it is GSM not CDMA and all you will need is a keyboard fix to revert the keyboard to the TP keyboard. The benefits of upgrading differ from rom to rom. I personally use the PROven ROM which is unprotected so you can recook the rom but have used the NATF ROM and they both work great. The Da_G ROM is great if you are looking for a clean rom.

Just as a caution I suggest you read the rom specs prior to loading. Some of the US "Fuze" Roms do not do Video calling. Not really a big thing in the USA. So strongly suggest you do some research and ensure what you download has the functionality that you require. Da_G's Roms seem to have video dialing if you require it and I'm sure some of the others do too. If you like what you get a donation to the chef always goes a long way.
Hi,
I did a 15 minutes searched based on google and xda forum and only 'some' of the post that make sense. anyhow thank you for explaining. I hardly ever use the video call. Normal phone call and VOIP and GPS is probably the most thing i use in the phone
thanks again everyone for the replied, have a great x'mas and new year

Hey everyone,
I have been searching for a few days now and so far I keep coming up short so please excuse me if it was an easy find for somebody.
I have an HTC Fuze and what I'm looking for is the original or newwest Radio that comes with the Rogers Diamond and the corresponding rilphone.dll that I can flash to my Fuze/Touch Pro.
The reason I'm looking for this is because I'm on the Rogers network and well IMO the radio or even the rilphone.dll by itself would be optomized for the network I'm using the device on. If what I'm saying wouldn't be true, then please let me know and I will just stick to the official HTC Radio's and rilphone.dll
Thanks!
Hi RJ45,
I'm using the RILPHONE.DLL from this thread:
