Here is a new rom from the still unreleased Cingular 8525: HTC Hermes (HERM100) branded from U.S. Operator Cingular.
ROM Version: 1.30.502.1
ROM Date: 08/21/06
Radio: 1.11.00.00
Protocol: 32.47.7018.00H
As always, download link on the wiki upgrading page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
If you have questions be sure to read the Hermes wiki first, specially the Upgrading FAQs.
Notes on this ROM:
* Cingular 8525 doesn't have front camera, you'll need to install cab files from other ExtROM to enable video calling (I used TyTN ExtROM on mine).
* Left button is mapped to push-to-talk application still unavailable on the rom, so it is unuseful. You can map it to any other APP using 3rd party software to remap hardware buttons.
Enjoy
if i upgrade to the cingular 8525 rom, will my tytn still be unlocked? or will it be locked to cingular?
It will still be unlocked. The network lock doesn't depend on the rom you're using.
Guys
Any ideas as to who/what website released this ROM?

What is the OS build?

OS 5.1.195 (Build 14955.2.3.0), so it's AKU 2.3 as all the other available ROMs until now.
i just installed the cingular 8525 rom! and now U CANT DO A LOCK IN ON GSM OR WCDMA MODE! (that menu been removed!)
i going back to the Imate rom!
Trying it now, thanks for the link! It also seems that the MMS limit is increased to 600K!

I am on the cingular rom, and my menu exists. Go to:
Settings -> Personal -> Phone -> Band -> Select your network type. The options are Auto, GSM and WCDMA.
If you don't have it by default probably it's on the ExtROM, as I said I installed the ExtROM from TyTN, try it.

the "Band" tap/menu is missing. probably it' on the ExtRom from Tytn. how do i install the Tytn ExtRom? do u mind tell me? or u rather me search the FAQ?
Any comments as to the stability of this ROM on a TyTN?
Do we know what the different files in the EXT_ROM are for?

1) hard reset
2) do the usual alignment stuff, copy-paste, etc...
3) soft-reset before it starts installing the cingular ExtROM (customizations), you have 3 seconds
4) Unhide your extrom (you can also use fit4cat hermes tweaker for this)
5) Extract the contents of TyTN ExtROM to a folder in your miniSD card.
6) click on the CABs files you want to install, this is what I installed on mine:
From TyTN's ExtROM (on SD):
MT_Shortcut-MMS-Hermes.CAB
MP_mHub_060630.CAB
MT_PC_Hermes_Qtek_WWE_060621.CAB
P_Generic_UI.CAB
PP_3-AP-Patch.CAB
PP_ace-certs.CAB
VT_Engine_23818_ext.CAB
From Cingular's ExtROM (unhided):
MT_Shortcut-MMS-Hermes.CAB
T_mm1lib_DLL.CAB
MMS disapeared and I had to install the CAB 3 times, i used both from TyTN and from Cingular, then setup a default account settings and sent an MMS and received another (I sent it to myself from another mobile phone) and after that it stayed and no more problems with MMS.
I also installed the TyTN green theme (.tsk) because I like how it looks
Hope that helps.
Does the Cingular ROM or EXT_ROM contain the Cyberon VoiceDialer?
(I hope not!)
Yes, it's on the ROM but it's not mapped to any hardware button.
interesting.. BAND selection tab (GSM/UMTS/AUTO) is present in the ROM if Cingular extended ROM is not installed. it is being removed during Extended ROM installation procedure. more over, none of this Cingular CAB files are responsible for removing BAND selection (GSM/UMTS/AUTO) tab.
I have skipped Extened ROM installation, verified that BAND selection (GSM/UMTS/AUTO) band selector is still present and then installed all Cingular extended ROM cab files one by one. supprisingly enough - band selector is still there. there must be some other invisible configuration file in the extended rom. gprs connection is not auto configured either.
@superduper: probably you need to soft reset for the changes made by cab files to take effect. If you want to know which cab file disables it you have to install one, soft-reset, install another one, soft-reset and so on...
never mind
here is. i have selected the line in registry that needs to be changed to:
dword:00000001
default value for this line is : dword:00000000
see below :

UPDATE: phone settings.reg file is attache to this message. one needs simply import this file into device registry. no soft reset is required.
P.S. It would be goos if fit4cat will add this feature to his hermes tweaker.
Great finding
Guys, is Cing Video now activated and available as an option?
Thanks.
Is it me or does the ExtROM Unlocker only unhide the Extended ROM on this build - leaving it still read-only / protected?
I tried with fit4cat and the Hermes MountExtROM.cab but no luck modifing contents.

OK I downloaded it via the russian Forum...
It is mentioned that some fields need onscreen keyboard... Do you need it in messaging?
And how fast is the device with the PRO version??
link is dead again
It's WM61ProV1g.7z, not WM61Prov1g.7z.
Anyway, it's finally here, cant wait to flash it. Totally awesome.
I was waiting for this but I cannot flash right now. Can't wait to find time for flash and test.
Thanks a lot Erofich, you are the best!
Thank You!
It's already running on my Qtek 8500! At moment I've done only my first phone call with new OS
Thank You!!
im backing up my phone now and i will be joining the WM6.1 PRO community soon! ETA 90min. thanks Erofich!
backup done! preparing to flash... fingers crossed..
Beautiful ROM
Not that i dislike Russian but the Calendar and Date/Time show Russian and the rest is in English. Can this be changed?
Really nice ROM
I like it a lot. Everything with Active Sync seems to be working great. Great work. I would like to donate something via paypal. is this possible.

Change it to yours in regional settings
most likely, you only need to change it in settings-system-regional settings
Update on Russian Language
Update: Sorry it was be default in Russian. I just set it to English.
Why should somebody change from standard WM 6.1 to WM 6.1 Pro? - The Pro Version has not so much funktiones - as i see...
What are the advantages of the new version?
Thanks!
Bug(s) List
OK i finally flashed WM6.1 PRO to my startrek. so *****ing as always (sorry Erofich, i just want to help you guys iron out the bugs), here is the bugs list. (to be updated as frequently as needed, so please check back this post)
Bug List (updated 20th Mac 08)
=======================
1. Microphone AGC does not work. enabling will only get a white display with nothing (doesnt hang the device though). and when you check it again, it is still not enabled.
UPDATE : Will be removed in future version
2. When in fake cursor mode, if you leave the device there for a while and it does into standby, the device wakes up in a black dark screen, with only cursor working and the rest of the buttons disabled. cannot access anything too. (i have the owner information displayed on power up optoion checked)
UPDATE : According to Erofich, new cursor coming soon!
3. Camera software is not displaying properly. no menu can be seen, or message from the software cannot be seen. settings keys not working too.
UPDATE : Currently in development by Erofich
4. I noticed bluetooth light is flashing when device is switced on, however, when the OS is fully loaded, bluetooth is not ON. not really an issue, just an observation.
Suggestion(s)
==========
1. back key for smartphone to be enabled so we can map it to close/OK instead of having to hold home key. (will it affect phone dialing backspace? im not sure)
UPDATE : As suspected, nothing can be done here. Holding home key for OK/Close is a bit troublesome,but i guess we just have to sacrifice this for WM PRO
2. where can i download abode reader LE 2.00.261818 cab that i can choose installation path? can you please make a cab for this program?
Annoying Issues with using WM PRO without touchscreen ( Not the author's fault )
=============================================================
1. Old programs that are not designed with soft key feature is a really a PAIN. have to depend a lot on fake cursor. hopefully GreatVK will have a better solution for cursor.
UPDATE : Discovered an easier way of minimizing. double click on home key will minimize any running program.
P/S :All these testings and getting used to is giving me a headache.. will do further testings later. Great work Erofich and your team! By the way, you just appeared in engadget! http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/20/windows-mobile-6-1-professional-running-on-an-htc-startrek/

I'm just uploading the beta of the WWE version
It will be in ENG, ESN, FRA, GER, ITA, NLD, PTG, DAN, NOR, PLK and RUS
Please remember that it's a beta.
Anyway please test it and see if something is not working.
ThrottleLauncer is not in this version because the version I'm using is still in development (So it like a clean rom but not totaly clean)
what you will not find in the rom and will not be added to the rom is
Cube
Audio Manager
EndKey
Actionscreen
HTC Home
the Above are replaced by ThrottleLauncher in final release
MP3 trimmer
HTC Audioboost
MMS
MS Live
MSN.
there are cabs for these if needed
SO whats in it then
Touch Dual dialer (Diamond skined)
Larg Startmenu
Large Titlebar
Random access
Diamond Kayboard(English only in beta, the languages versions will have english + the country the rom is set to default)
Camera Album (Only English menus)
YouTube player (not diamond one)
ThumbCal
Paint
Java
Office( Excell and Work)
and the usual MS software
the rom is also UC
Fixed the camera and Hardware keyboard at least for 16 Key version (My girlfriends Nike has 16 keys)
Mediafire download link: Nike Diamond I Beta2 rom
nice looking rom. only problem i can see immediatly is the hardware keyboard is only giving numbers no letters. will keep testing along with throttle .91
Looks nice. The problem I also see is with the hardware keyboard 20 keys version. The 16 keys version will work with the modified cabs I made of Gullum's diamond keyboard. I haven't found a solution for the 20 keys version yet, but let's hope Gullum did.
i tried the orginal version of these cabs on a different rom but was only getting numbers then will try them again when i get chance. UK orange 16 key version

Is it the dahpd.kdb that makes the hardware keyboard work? for danish in this case
I'm kind of lost because I'm using my girlfriends dual for making this rom for a limeted time period
yeah that is one thing the other is that I left some registry keys out of the diamond keys cab. You can check the edited cabs in this post or in my 4shared folder.

Hi Gullum thanx for your work.
I just installed your rom,here are some quick findings before I go to sleep:
- I miss the connection setup wizard. Running it from the settings => connections menu gives an error. Running it from the windows dir gives me the same error.
With other roms it did initialize it after first start up. So now I don't have an internet connection so I can't figure out if the syncing and everything with internet works.
- UC is working great. It did it right after the normal setup without having to restart. Which it has when doing it manually.
- Hardware keypad doesn't work maybe you want to have a look at the edited cabs I made of your version and put these in. See my previous post
- There is no battery icon in the top bar only when you click on the time you see some status. It also isn't in the balloon thingy off the top bar.
Thats it for now. I will install another rom because I can't use my phone really without internet (calendar and contacts on exchange server) and I'm to lazy to set the internet connection up by hand
Thanx for the hard work and I'm looking forward to another test version.

I've have changed the RGU file so you can compare it with the original. What I basically did is:
- remove the Diamond keypad clsid registry keys (it seems like the Touch Keypad is somehow connected to the hardware keypad)
- changed the IME kdbfiles reg keys
- replaced the both the eT9.Nike.20Keys.0409.kmap.txt and eT9.Nike.20Keys.kmap.txt file with an empty file.
This works for the 16 keys version but the 20 keys version is not happy with replacing the txt files for an empty file. You could try the steps above without replacing the txt files or expirimenting a bit with the text files, but when making the cab it didn't work for me. Good luck.

ok, I missunderstand one thing and thought that this ROM is multilanguage so it is possible to have polish version of Rom not only XT9. shame on me
Bugs I've found:
1. start > settings > there is "Keypad QuickTasks" name visible without icon and I can't click it
2. start > settings > Network Config Wizard - there is an icon but without a name and when i clik on it an error pops up.
3. Dimond keyboard - hardware keypad can write only numbers (this bug is known already), and the list of available XT9 languages is long, so if I choose polish I can't write anything (only languages gullum includes works)

For Polish version I already have the Kaiser Polish WM6.1 but the problem I'm having is the initflashfiles.dat only has numbers for the links and folder I will try to add more language suport to these roms but it needs more work to port then the othere languages... but my coffie roms for Prophet also had Polish and Russian .
It's only the Kayboard that has suport for polish not a full rom yet but I am working on adding more versions. Good new are that when I've done it for one device it can be used for all devices I will suport... meaning I only have to do it once

Thanks for the info I'm shure this will help me in fixing the Hardware keyboard problem.
I tried putting the original kayboard back in and I still only get numbers from Keyboard so I must be misssing some reg somewhere I will hunt it down

That's my fault didn't try taking a pic before uploading I tried using the same cam as I used for Kaiser that has 3Mpx but it's fixed now
Is it fixed ?
I can´t download the file.
-Invalid Quickkey. This error has been forwarded to MediaFire's development team. The quickkey you provided for file download was invalid. This is usually caused because the file is no longer stored on Mediafire. This occurs when the file is removed by the originating user or Mediafire.

I just tested and link still works for me
I did a seach, but I only found 3 or 4 threads with a lot of posts.
So, can you please explain me ao can I disable my cube from my Dual?
download some registry editing software and browse to hklm>software>htc>touchflo
then i think the cube is called biotouch although i cant be sure. if you change the hex value in that (or something that sounds more likely to be it) to 0 it should disable it. I can't test as I don't have the cube.

Now, it's simple. You need to install this: Advanced Configuration Tools 3.3 (Freeware).
To work, this aplication needs NET Compact Framework 3.5.
Open this aplication and search in the menu: "HTC Touch Flo">"Cube: Enabled" and change it to "Cube: Disabled" then press "Done" and soft-reset.
It works: simple and elegant.
Nice, many thanks

You ROM uses custom GridScene that was setup in registry. I have not yet got any answer on Chefs thread about setting this up. So if you have any idea, please share.
This registry key has something to do with it "[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartMenu] "CustomGridForm"="StartMenuCust"

Thanks for the feedback.
very nicely done. What program were you using in the first video to control your device with your pc? I've used several. Some I like more than others but they all have their faults/lack of capability.

I was just using an Windows Emulator from Visual Studio.
but if you want a desktop app to control the screen of your winmo device; you can use My Mobiler. It's very very free!
Nice job seeing the videos, what about making it for HVGA aswell, tried it with hope but no luck on my HD mini

KNOWN PROBLEMS
No effect after reset
You ROM uses custom GridScene that was setup in registry. I have not yet got any answer on Chefs thread about setting this up. So if you have any idea, please share.
This registry key has something to do with it "[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartMenu] "CustomGridForm"="StartMenuCust"

That registry key tells the start menu engine to use a "custom" .cpr layout for the Start menu. The normal filename of for the start menu layout is StartMenu_GridScene_480x800.cpr , but if you have the registry key enabled, then windows looks for StartMenuCust_480x800.cpr . HTC does this by default in their stock ROMs, in order for windows to load their custom .cpr files. A pure windows ROM will look for a StartMenu_GridScene_480x800.cpr for example.
Some chefs choose not to mess with that and just StartMenuCust_480x800.cpr gets used. *I* for example, take that key out in my ROMs and I use StartMenu_GridScene_480x800.cpr . So you just have to account for both All you have to do is look for the registry key and if it's not there, then it's safe to say StartMenu_GridScene_480x800.cpr is the layout used.

So...I think this would be a great add on to our HD2's. Is there going to be an update?
hi nice app. but sadly dosent work on HD2 , hope works in a future cose is a god app to have.
I got it working on my European HD2 (Factory ROM) by editing the registry value - as mentioned in an earlier post in this thread. As suggested I changed the registry key HKLM\Security\Shell\StartMenu] "CustomGridForm" to say "StartMenuCust" instead of "StartMenuCust". after a soft reset the program worked.

hi guys!! am so sorry for this issues. Just got back from vacation!
I'll see what I can do tonight!
for the mean time. the fix for this is..
if you have stock rom or your chef did not change any graphical changes in the start menu (other than number of columns) then:
create/update this registry
[HKLM\Security\shell\startmenu]
CustomGridForm="StartMenuCust"
to
[HKLM\Security\shell\startmenu]
CustomGridForm="StartMenu"
Hey just wanted to say thanks, very handy little app. Works fine for me on my TP2 running MightyRom official. Keep up the great work!
