Hi all, I am new to the forums (lurking for ages though) so far i have asked three questions and have had many views with no responses - im hoping this post sparks more interest.
Would it be possible to make a sticky for G4 roms? a link to each thread about the rom and a link to something other than rapidshare? it doesnt work for south africa. I have gotten the hang of flashing and am sadly but blissfully spiraling into the "flashing addicts" arena, so far (since yesterday) i have panicked, installed an original kjam rom, the XM6r5, the artemis touch (no luck and i panicked again - not for the wizard, oops, duh) and now i am on black diamond 3.1. I would like to try the NBD and Jaguar roms but cant download them off rapidshare
I am sure there are many more great roms out there, i just cant find them in the forums - i even tried searching for ROMS but little luck. So my thinking is, if there were a thread just for posting links to the various G4 roms it would make everyones lives alot easier... and perhaps an alternate download site - i noticed that i am not the only one stumped by rapidshare.
by the by, i cant find the threads where i originally got the XM6r5 and black diamond roms from so i just wanted to say thanks to the developers for the awesome work.
you should be able to go through a web proxy to download off rapid share. thats what i do. pretty much any proxy that ends in a .com should work.

Thanks to this wonderful forum and the smart guys here I have successfully flashed my Cingular 8525 to the newest stock HTC ROM. No problems, no worries, no questions with that.
But along the way I was having problems downloading the ROM from (I think) Rapidshare and I somehow came across a beautiful page that had all the applicable ROMS for this phone posted in one nice easy place. Had Cingular ROMs, HTC ROMs, different versions, etc. I thought I saved the URL, but didn't. And of course now I can't find that page to save my life.
And yes I have searched, high and low, both here and at HTC. I even went through my browser cache trying to figure out where that page was. But alas, no joy.
If anyone knows what page I am talking about, please post the URL for me. Thanks in advance!

MS forced XDA to STOP hosting the ROM's. They are mostly RapidShare Now. The list is still in the Wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
Just another reason for me to dislike MS...
Anyway, thank you for the info.
Hi guys,
I am new to this, I have done a few searches, I find some stuff but no clear path on how to upgrade my M3100 to WM6.
Could someone help me out with some instructions and what files I need?
Many thanks
Take a look here, and follow relevant links.

Also don't forget to take note of Mr Vanx's guides!
Thanks for the reply, which version would be better?
Which ROM
Impossible to say which is the best for you really, all of the most recent releases are stable, fast and come with a built in selection of applications and ROM specific tweaks. The "which is the best ROM" threads tend to go on without any resolution, we all have our favorite! There are some ROM polls kicking around that are worth getting a feel for whats popular, i would suggest reading those and then trying a few of the popular ones. I went through three before deciding on one i was happiest with.
There are flavours of ROM's being released left right and centre these days, do a spot of reading over at the cooked ROM's depository and check out the Wiki page for all the information you need:

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...
hi all,
so ive been using pdas for a few years now, had a kaiser loved it learned loads ie how to flash different roms to it apps etc great stuff,
moved over to the touch pro, wow amazing device again rand some roms on it found one i loves (we miss you Romeos!)
now im deciding that i want to learn a little more about the under the hood actions in terms of cooking, the os, all the weird terms ive read in different posts which totally overwhelms me with info,
now allot of people will say "search the forums" which indeed is the way i need to go, my only problem is working out where to begin, again the wiki is a great place to start, but unsure of what to read up and understand first
could some one give me a few pointers, i come from an IT background mainly networking but have done a few different things so im pretty confident i can pick it up quite quickly (i run linux at home at managed to pick it up really quickly)
so my question is. for some one trying to learn about the operating system in terms of cooking one for them selves, where would be the best place to start?
if any one of you amazingly gifted people could point me in the right place that would be amazing,
thank you very much

Download a kitchen and start playing. I used Proven kitchen the first time. It was very easy to use. I have also used Da_G's kitchen. Again, very easy to use and both contain many packages to get you started. It's just a matter of playing with the options then.
thanks for that yeah am now looking to do that however i was looking for maybe threads discussing it i see things like aku mentioned and builds etc and dont really understand, im a reader and like to read up and understand technical info before playing however sometimes you just need to do it so will take your point
thanks
@annonymouse:
I assume you have a GSM Raphael. I would suggest starting with the following Wiki page(s):
HTC Raphael
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Raphael
I started off with the following kitchen:
Da_G's Simple ROM Kitchen
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Da_G's Simple ROM Kitchen
I put a tutorial together for that kitchen to help other newcomers "ramp up" quickly. The tutorial includes several links to important threads that will help you get better acquainted with some of the aspects of Windows Mobile.
HTH,
hi thanks for the links ive read the wiki page earlier but am at work so mearly glossed however thats not enough so will sit at home and divulge,
will also check the link out for the kitchen
thanks allot i appreciate the help
Hello everyone! Heard a lot of good things about this site so thought I'd sign up and give it a go. Been having lots of issues with ICS (all three stock releases for my phone - E4GT). I'm fine with running (and actually prefer) EL29 anyway. I would, however, like to give my phone a fresher theme.
I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1323763 and thought it was beautiful, plus everyone raved about it. But...the Download link is dead. The last page of the (closed) Thread suggested anyone looking for it see if someone could email it or link a working Download mirror. I tried looking everywhere, but can't seem to find any active mirrors, so would someone be kind enough to point me in the right direction?
Thanks so much and sorry if it's posted somewhere and I missed it!
