WOW! Please read the Forum !

This is the very first Thread
Hi,
Can't answer all your questions but with regard to the actual upgrade then follow this thread. Its a sticky right at the top of this forum and is there to aid people through the process.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310452
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE follow it word for word. It works if you do this but you may get into difficulties if you don't - you have been advised.
I have successfully used the process a number of times to go back and forth between WM6 versions and then back to WM5.
Remember that if you want to go back to your original WM5 ROM you'll need the ROM upgrade for this in order to do it. The download links are there for everything you'll need for WM6 - use them.
If you are in any doubt then STOP and don't go any further. Ask for help in the forum or reread the instructions. The large numbers of issues that people seem to have are, I am convinced, caused by either not using the instructions or not following the published ones.
Having used WM6 on my Propher I'd have to say that currently the available ROMs whilst fantastic achievements, aren't really what I'm prepared to use on a daily basis. If you are happy to beta test and install your apps everytime you upgrade then go for it.
I am currently back on WM5 either until I see a WM6 ROM that I am able to use 'in anger' day to day.
I'm really interested to see if we get a working HTC Touch port - now that would be something.
Hope this helps,
RADAR

This forum is more or less for Flash-a-holics anonymous.
If you are ready to sacrafice your precious sleeping hours and sex life, then jump to these WM6 beta ROM's.
Judge by your questions, you would be more happy:
1. Buy a Touch
2. Stay in WM5
The WM6 ROM for Prophet that you are looking for or for that matter, that many are looking for, is still in the kitchen, cooking.....
Unless you feel that you fit the pre-requitsite, or you feel humping Prophet is more enjoyable than .... then jump to the WM6 pool ......
Don't say I don't warn you before hand!

There will never be an official WM6 release for the prophet, these wm6 roms you'll find are from other pda's made ready for the prophet.
They are all safe to use if you follow the steps that you have red in the upgrade topic.
If you want the HTC Touch gadets on your Prophet you should read this topic and try out the Fantastic Mobiz v2.0b4! rom
You can always switch back to wm5 if you dislike wm6 roms
Any advice: make an backup of your contacts/messages/photoshoots ect. because you will loose anything on your phone memory and find out if you have a G3 or a G4 phone!
Have Fun

I can't say which rom is best for you, they all have their own advantages, you'll have to find out yourself which one suits you
Upgrading your rom has nothing to do with your GSM service provider, but your GPRS settings will be lost after an rom update so you'll need to know how to set them right
Hello!
I'm very unsure how I can update my G4 CID looked.
1. Which updateway is recommendable?
2. Can I use all Prophet Roms?
greetz Ben
Can everybody help me please?
I'm still waiting for an answer!
look in the xda-wiki ... you found the right discription.
Not Realy! I have read the wiki and all usefull threads 2 days before!
1. There are different updateways in different foren, threads and wikis and all are for G3. Some users, which have a G4 model write that you have to notice a few points, but the answers are not very clearly.
2. In the german XDA forum they tell me that I can use every prophet rom! BUT: In the wiki is written that the G3 and G4 devices have different hardware! So it is very illegitimate that I can use the same rom!
Please help me! In my statement you can see that I'm very careful because I don't want to brick it!
no you haven't,as i see !
Do you think that I'm lying? Maybe I'm blind or stupid!
1. I don't want that you tell me the updateway. A link to the tutorial which you use / would use will be ok!
2. I can see that you has a normal prophet rom. So I think that the answer is YES?
I've got the same problem. This forum is great, no doubt, but it's a MESS. I couldn't find a clear answer regarding flashing a CID LOCKED G4 Prophet.
Can I flash radio roms ? What about extrom ? Can I just flash Gullums Touch VII right away after flashing NVID rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310452 ? Can I even flash this NVID rom to CID LOCKED G4 ?
Lots of questions and for every one I can find 20 different answers, so I'm pretty confused. Maybe someone with the patience can clarify all of that, we don't want to brick our precious Prophets.
Juhuu! A further confused man!
So let's collect our incomplete knowledge together!
I read about a tool, shelltool with it you can update a CID locked device!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293480
I'm reading the full thread at the moment!
My rom question is still open! If I find an answer I update my device with the shelltool!
greetz Ben
OK i see your Problem!
You can Flash all Roms with the NVID Flashtool. You can only Flash Roms with this tool, if no IPL and SPL is included! WM6 Roms use too ways to Flash it. Read the Threads about this WM6 Roms ... you need only to start the Update.bat or simulare bat file ... possible a NVID Flashtool. Some Roms have two bat files for G3 or G4 Device. Use the right! Radio Roms use everytime the NVID Flashtool and work everytime with locked devices.
You dont need the Shelltool way ... this is more Hardcore for develope.
Tank you very much for your answer!
In fact:
-I can flash every prophet rom which has a G4 bat?!
-I can flash every prophet Rom which has no IPL, SPL with NVID flashtool?
My G4 runs WM6 now!
After again 5 hours investigation I know that you CAN'T kill your device with the prophet roms! When all people say "the device is bricked" they don't mean that nothing happens! They say "bricked" if the ppc stuck on the SPL/ISP screen or the bootloader. And both can be fixed with a RUU update like Prophet_PV_Temp or the original O2 rom!
Frtzrwk:
I upgraded to PDAVIET Touch 4.0.0.6!
You can get the link to both RARs in the thread.
First: Prophet_PV_Temp
For Up/Downgrading to Aku 2.2 (WM5)
Second: PV_4.0.0.0.6_Touch
The Real WM6 Rom
-Download and extract!
-Start "ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4", which install Aku2.2
#wait 10 minutes, your ppc restart automatically
-After the PPC is fully started, you install first "Cert_SPCS" and then "EnableRapi" (you can find the two files in PV_4.0.0.0.6_Touch)
#wait 1 minute and restart your device
-Now you can update your Rom with "Upgrade_Rom"
#wait ~15 minutes
-Hardreset your device! IMPORTANT!!!
Welcome to your new WM6 installation!
If your device stuck at the ISP/SPL screen (loading more than ~5 minutes), go into bootloader (camera + reset) and start again with upgrading to Aku2.2

This was all in the wiki
See http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Prophet
then
WM6 Upgrade Guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1296235&postcount=1
And your device can go to heaven when your flashing the wrong rom to a wrong device...
The answer was for Frtzrwk because he is confused too!
So shut the **** up...
I don't think so! Were is written in the f**k wiki that I can use ALL prophet roms!
There is olny one information about G4:
It is not possible to upgrade from a G3 model to a G4 model through software, as the DOC is a piece of Hardware.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So the hardware is not the same!
And by the way: I hate rapidshare... test the links!
And when everybody flash a trium rom or another **** rom they shouldn't buy a PPC!
I don't care!
friendly greetz Ben!
P.S. Many thanks to NetrunnerAT for the only usefull answer in this thread and to gullum for his fileservice + great rom!
yes
ok new menber

What? I can't understand you!
Is the a Windows Mobile 6.1 upgrade available for the Cingular 8525?
you gotta be kidding, try looking at the hermes mobile 6 subforum
Read the cooks wm6.1 threads and posts carefully before flashing and u must have hardspl on u'r device!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=355
Be careful...
To caviat: You need to make sure you have HardSPL before flashing ANY ROM to your phone. Read the Wiki and the available cooked ROMS if you want something different than WM6.
Hi All you gurus out there...
I have upgraded the phone to ATT WM6 rom and then I've upgraded the Radio Ver to 1.54.07.
However I do not like this rom and planing on installing HTC version. Question is which version of do I need. I am using this phone on T-mobile(USA).
If this question is already posted then, can some one please point me to the links?
Many thanks.
Read this first.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Once this has been done you can pretty much pick any rom on the forum... Most, if not all, cooked roms dont come with the radio rom so if you like your radio there is no problems with it being flashed.
After flashing Hard SPL I recommend flashing using the SD card method as it is safer than the pc. You can find answers by doing a search on the forum or wiki. Cheers....

Thank you for the info.
hello all,
The last days I was reading a lot of posts, in order to get more information about this device and the options that i can have using a cooked rom.
But still have some questions, so please be pacient with me.
I have an 7500 with WM5 original rom portuguese language.
I understood that if I want to upgrade with AP5beta I need first to update the radio and then the SPL ( the SPL version will depend on the cooked rom ).
I will not need to unblock it, because it works with different sims.
Also for what I understood once I use the SPL3.5 I can not use anymore original roms ( or downgrade ). Is this correct?
If I upgrade my 7500 with the original WM6 roms, can I later use cooked rom's?
Does anyone, that have used only original rom's, noticed any difference between WM5 and WM6?
thanks in advance for your help,
and keep doing this good job.
Hi Poppey
Welcome to the forum.
I noted your other post and it seems you are keen to play with your phone.
Sometimes when you do this , things go wrong , occasionally to the exent that it can't be fixed !
Most of the time , the mistakes have been made before, so if you are inexperienced, seek a friend to guide you or look and search on this forum before you do anything rash.
I would sugest first reading the wiki and asking questions showing you have done this first
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Athena
After this I would suggest learning how to backup and restore data , before attempting to install the various program cabs.
When you are comfortable with this learn how to do a hard reset and reinstall your programs/data etc.
Next I would suggest that you find a copy of your original rom just in case you have to revert to it.
Next try an official Rom.
Along the way , I am sure you will make a mistake , but this is how most people learn how to fix their own problems.
By this time you will understand why you still have to use the athena unlocker
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315831 to install any of the newer cooked roms http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397518
This should give you hours of enjoyment/frustration and along the way you may even learn the pros and cons of the various roms which , in the end are very subjective and depend on personal preference.
Hope this helps

Hi lakeman,
Thanks for your prompt answer.
Thats exactly what I need, a point of start.
Lets go reading and reading again...

Hi sergiopi,
also thanks for your prompt answer.
Ok, I understand that once I upgrade with a cooked rom based on SPL3.5 I can't go back to original rom's, neither to rom's using SPL1.2
So it means that is a "one go direction".
But what about upgrade to original WM6 and then if I want go to cooked rom's. Is that posible?
Sorry but I don't have this clear after reading your links.
Probably the best to do is going directly to an original rom, but of course if doing that doesn't give me the option of using cooked rom's I must be sure on what direction I must go.
thanks,
No problem. Upgrade your ATHENA to official WM6 and AFTER you can choose to install the Athena WRAPPER and the cooked ROMs!
