Now i'm what you techy lot on here would call a noob when it comes down to a wm5 phone, Namely the hp ipaq rw6815 don't get me wrong it's quite a good phone but, I like to try and improve things and was looking at the 6.xx cooked roms for this hand set and found a problem which one to have????
Now this is where you good folk come into this little dilema, I tried ariey's 6.5 rom, and I have to admit it was pretty good but I had the usual problems with the camera and bluetooth and every other bloody problem you could have so, I decided to do away with the rom and went back to hp's original this has happened with several of the roms posted on this site now my question is this which of the cooked roms out there is the most stable without the pains of the camera, bluetooth, handset slow down etc etc etc ???
If you believe you can help forget the a team drop me msg or reply and hopefuly my litte ipaq won't need to be retired to the great phone dump many thanks mike
after all these views no one has an answer for me hmmmm
Actually I'm searching a WM6.1 perfectly working and stable rom. I came from Arhon (Pda-hack) WM6.0 and it was perfect very stable with no problems (only thing was to patch camera). I tried many WM6.5 roms but all have the bluetooth problem you cannot add more than 2 devices (but the best was AndyAinda version 2 or 3).
Tryout the RW6828 ROM's by Helloworld1. These are very stable.
Camera does not work out of the box (for the RW6815) but there is an .cab file around here that solves the problem. Search for "pda-hack.net_hp_rw6815_camera_patch_wwe.CAB"
Also the ROMS by NHOCBANME are very stable but with more software on board (only useful software) the ROMS by Helloworld1 are like HP could have made them.
There are a lot more but in my opinion these are the two best ROM makers. But I would say, try them all and see what's best for you're self.
Don't expect any update on the ROM cause the RW68xx is already fairly old (but for it's age still very good, better as the Diamond 1 I use at the moment. For resistive screen it's the best i ever had the only thing is that it has no GPS otherwise I would not use that Diamond anymore and go back to my good-old RW6815)

transformer1 or touch V7 which one you have now(be true)
i myself have touch V7
my guess is alot because transformer1 has had 27,319 views by the time i am writing this post where as touch V7 has had 44,751 where as if you consider simple difference of a few hours of rom's release views should not vary at this scale although this has nothing to do with number of people upgrading .
hi...
i'm running TNT5 Official...
touch V7 however Im going to try Transformer 1.1 since I keep getting Blank screen bugs and OS screen freezes, what a hoot.
Happily using Transformer 1.0 since the day it was released, but will upgrade to 1.1 tonight. I have not tried touch V7 at all.

Hi...
T1.1 is not "still" with build 17944 it's again with this build as descripted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1527184&postcount=2
Useless topic.
I used both of them but best one I think TNT 5 series
I use Touch V7, but still, kinda useless topic.
I'm using the new build beta test from Cloudyfa PDAVIET.
Oh! By the way, this new build doesn't have a name yet. As far as I know, it will be not touch nor cross... stay tuned
used both, too
since yesterday fully successed with tnt5 official
its the most slim, fast and stable rom and running fine. 29mb of free ram with 6mb pp rules =)
-- wrong post
I am using TRANC1 from the day it was launched.....
but I am fan of gullum rom too ..... right now I am going 2 try the 1.1 ver........
New build beta test PDAVIET.
I'm using the new build beta test from Cloudyfa PDAVIET.
The best so far ??? i try all of them and in my opinion transport 1.1
is by far the best and the most stable.
Since sincerely of the above mentioned roms they all are enough good, but they they all fail in the same:
- connection bluetooth-free hands - gps
When the bluetooth is connected to the free hands and to the gps, it fails enough, but happens to all roms: tnt v5, gollum V7, transformer 1.1, crystal, etc..

Hello,
This is y first post, but I watch this forum for longer time.
I use TNT5 Pro. Its working great, very fast and much RAM.
thanx for gr8 replies
well I'm on transformer 1.1 right now but just charging up for a reflash to TNT. I really like cloudyfa's roms but the speed of TNT was so nice, also TNT was about the only rom that actually kept my gprs working after hard reset
*(in the others I would have to go into "edit connection" (without actually changing anything) , every time.
In fact I'm scared of using windows live with "as items arrive" now, with more than one rom it would get stuck on the password screen after reboot and wouldn't even let me get to the "edit connection" screen.
TNT (pro) is about the only one I have found where the gprs settings persist nicely (at least after turning off with the button on the side). I can't say I've tried all roms though, and i used to often use the stylus or psshutxp to reboot; maybe that's not good? I'd be interested to hear other people's experiences regarding gprs settings persisting after reboot
Moving a bit beyond my level of comprehension, I remember something about the way wm6 handles reg. settings, and moves settings from RAM to ROM. Can anyone elaborate? Is this also the cause of the infamous "bluetooth forced repairing after reboot" bug in so many of the WM6 ROMs?
*the gprs settings would look as if they were still there as normal, but would not work until after tapping "edit connection"
Transformer 1.1 is the best rom so far. No issues, grt sped, overall an extremely stable rom..
I just got my 8525 and so far i like it, i have WM 5 on it and it seems a little outdated. I want a new ROM and i need help deciding. The rom needs to be good with texts, phone calls and wifi primarily. Other options would be cool like the possiblity to get GPS. Please help me out.
Hey Rockman!!!!
Listen it carefully once you have unlocked succesfully your hermes go to the Windows mobile 6 subforum and try one by one... The text i dont know what do you mean with that but with cellphone signal is better to try different Radio Roms... on my country The 1.5X.XX dont works well I better get the 1.40.30 Radio Rom. On Wifi... well the wifi doesnt seems to be directly performed on the Rom is more Hardware...
So I can recomend to you the Final V10 Full Halloween By JoshKoss 6.1 Real Big Storage Normal ROM is great!!!
But who we are to say this is the wors this is the best...? if we dont cooks hahahaha whatever... try it all!!! once you upgrade you never stops to flash your device.
As + Que PPC said, you need to look at the roms yourself. What I use and what you want may be completely different.
Make sure you Hard SPL your Phone first...
I've tried many popular fancy roms and settled on this one:
Pays 3.05 windows 6.1.
Keeps the speed and gives you what you need.
http://rapidshare.com/files/9391586/Pays_WWE_305_Final_Full.rar
Hermes 8525
The only thing it needs is a direct access icon to IM somewhere on the home screen. I don't IM so Not important to me.

Hi -
I am extremely new to HTC TouchPro. Thanks to my friend who referred me to this great forum. Monx - you're doing a great job, my friend.
Two days back, I installed Olinex RapahelHardSPL unsigned 1.90.3; then flashed ROMeOS 1.40.1 - had it for a day or two and then today I flashed 1.50.2 (after reading great feedbacks). Things look good to me so far. I heard that using ActiveSync sucks your battery juice a lot as compared to BBCONNECT. I am not sure if installing BBConnect on 1.50.2 has been tested and more importantly would it screw anything up?
Another different question - how to add calendar to the list of applications on the home screen (that slides horizontally) - I dont know a better way of asking this ?n!
Lastly, I heard that TouchPro comes with GPS but doesnt seem to work as it is on my phone. Am I missing something?
Please let me know
Thanks
Mahesh
hey my friend, please use the ROM thread to ask questions about it, ok?
Link is here
edit: about GPS, you can test it with this program attached
I have the Fuze as well and the GPS on it with the .32 radio is pretty bad and I believe lots of other Fuze users here will agree. I can't help you much with BB Connect but I'm going to try flashing another radio, probably .28, and I'll let you know if that helps with our GPS woes.
Hello,
I just picked up an old ATT 8525 because my 4 year old lost my old basic cell & and it looked like the 8525 was lots of fun to mess with (as per YouTube...consummate tinkerer)
Ive read a million threads here and elsewhere and surfed a thousand sites and cannot find WM6 4 HTC hermes/8525 (let alone 6.1 or 6.5)
-Is wm6 a big improvement over Wm5
-Is WM6 needed for all these great roms?
-Will WM6.5 (if I can find and load) work with these roms and this 85?
-And of course Where do you get either (not from HTC anymore).
Regards PK
OK, I hunted this down on rapid-share. Its about 56 megs and presumably will work on the 8525. Look right? pretty esoteric.
RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3.62.502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe
Is there any generic 6,1 or 6,5 for this.
Regards, PK
Mate, before flashing anything you need to Hard SPL your Hermes. Put Hard SPL V7 on from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722 , go to page 116, post 1160 to do it without using the PC, mostly.
Go to the WM06 section to find the newer roms, 6.5 are the latest.
But before you do any of that, you need to read the upgrade guide on how to flash your phone. Do a search, thats what its there for.
Cheers...
Thanks,
BTDT (been there done that). Read everything I can find here, there and everywhere, Have download the right stuf f I think (at it 3 days lad)
Since I posted I have found two versions of 6.0 for this phone. One (slightly larger) here somewhere I think. And one through a more circuitous route. Be interested to see the upgrade sequence going to Wm 5 to WM 6.5. Thanks for the tip.
Hermes_radio_only_1.56 has me a little confused, one post seams to say don't mess unless your life is at stake, but elsewhere, with Hard_spl_v7.5 (I guess) it's implied no prob. As best I can tell theres a trade off, newer radio, better reception, more battery life &, maybe worse camera performance. I'd like a balance. the camera is important to me.
'Nother bit of confusion, I have a new, unactivated sim card. Activate it first, unlock it, do all the other stuff first, does it matter?
Regards, PK
Ok I get it,
1) Install hard spl
2) Install first Att lite
3) Install WM 6.5....your favorite flavored ROM
4)Install different radio when you really know what your doing
PK
Yep, you got it, however, if you're using the sd card method to install the roms, its slightly different than installing Hard SPL V7, drop the steps using sspl.exe. You now have Hard SPL, you don't need to use Soft SPL anymore and its safer not to.
As you said, Don't mess around with the radio unless you know FOR SURE its gonna help. This is the one thing that practically guarantees a brick if it stuffs up during the flash.
It will effect signal reception, thats all. And always use sd card method to flash the radio rom.
Camera is not affected by Radio Rom. Look for a rom with a good camera cooked in. use the WM06 section of the Hermes forum to find WM06/6.1 & 6.5 roms.
Cheers...
Thanks D,
That was fun.
Oddly, my phone and $5.95 SIM card arrived simultaneously yesterday. Reread the HTC guide(s)., Ran through my recipe and it worked, The flashes went remakably easy and fast.
The only thing that still doesn't work is the camera zoom. Seems intuitive enough but I admitably have not read the manual.
I burned in "Golden globe 6.5". Little sluggish on this old 8525 but I'd expect that. Doesn't do all the tricks I've seen on Youtube but beats the holy 'ell out of stock WM 5 it came with.
Thanks for you help,
Regards, PK
hermes 6.5
Hey ...
If you want to try a lite 6.5 rom for hermes please try mine. it runs well even after touchflo is installed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=495280
I'd also appreciate feedback and comparisons to other flavors.
Nice work, might do. I'm currently semi-bricked, been loading & re-loading roms about 3-4 a day.
Does it come in any color than green??
Regards, PK
Just to let you all know how I have found this new radio on my TG01
I have tried changing to this radio with various roms but with no luck, however using Mirlog's new MiROM1_rel. 5 with this radio cooked into the rom I have not had any ARM FATAL messages.
I have also noticed that since using this rom the gps start-up is almost instant without having to use GpsMod. Previously on both 0016 and 0017 radio the gps would take a good 10mins to get a fix without GpsMod so good news
But I have also noticed that on this radio both with GpsMod and without after 10-20mins use the gps stops and does not restart. If I exit and restart IGo then it works for a few minutes and stops again and if I soft reset it works again for a bit longer but stops again so bad news
Call quality is better than previous versions but not brilliant however the quality is consistent no matter who I call so this is better overall
Mobile internet is faster, browsing sites, downloading and sending emails zips along now compared to before. I have to be honest and say I have not measured the speed but it is noticeable so good news again
So generally a much better radio all round but the gps dying all the time is too much so I will reflash and change my radio back to 0017
How has everyone else found this version?

To be honest i have found GPS sucks except on official roms, strange i know, but always get loss of signal after so long and it never really recovers to be reliable until i restart my phone. Call quality is much better, closest competitor for us uk users is 0300 but this is definately better.
Which version did you use ? iGO Primo 1.2 ?
Primo but last years version, I did play with 1.2 but its rubbish (looses gps every few minutes, then reboots my TG01 and no TTS even following all the instructions)
When it stops even if I exit Primo and open GpsMod it shows nothing.
The original TG01 custom roms used to be like this but they were radio 0016
wow, your report seems great. I'll try out the radii tonight!
With Primo 1.2 and latest Radio 321 i loose GPS about 15-20 minutes...
My first test was made using 300.76... GPS works without problem...
But since 321, my latest test, i loose GPS like HTC device especially HD²...
Then i think you are right... everything is better but GPS loose every time...
I need make a test with other Navi software... or GPS tools...
i will ask Nokser NOW !

Maybe.. anyone test Navi etc. in my ROM, because in this moment me TG01 is dead ...
Dead, like real Dead ? or something can be made to restore device ?
@ Nokser Fan users...
I ask help about feedback with Navi software, can you confirm keep Sat fix is rubbish !!
To keep everyone updated, I used Mirlog's radio kitchen and switched to 0018 radio (which I have never used before) and the gps is working ok combined with GpsMod
In conclusion anyone wanting a good stable fast radio use 0321 but if you need a good working gps then switch back to 0017 or 0018.
Same conclusion !
To have a good issue with calling and browsing and something other than GPS... use 321...
if you want stable and good feature back to original Radio provided by Chef's...
Important:
If you use new RADIO-....0321, then you must try too new driwers+new apps..
I have this same problems in other radios..
Nokser... you share nothing with XDA... only ROM with new feature...
All users give not a good feedback about your latest ROM because you use a method to force user to stay with you !
Method does not really good, but your ROM seems to be good !
Then Where is New Drivers ? where is New apps ?
share something... or do not say : hihihhi ! use new 'from my rom'
But this all opinion isn't from my test ROM, only from test Radio...
So funny, i love You Nokser !
and about your GREATEST drivers and apps ?
You give something to communauty or always a Chef's Secret ?
forgive ... . I do not understand ...

I will be devils advocate. I do not know Nokser's roms but if they are really good , they are much more worth than all this idiotic animations, skins, pictures and other production for "children" so do no say that Nokser share nothing. Good rom is everything.

i agree Fxdjacentyfxd. We should stop flaming other members... At least we have developers, lets not try to make our TG01 community any smaller... Be grateful. I know i cant exactly talk as i havent developed any thing for our device, but i try to keep things going Please everybody calm down.
• idiotic animations ? like bootloader !?
an exemple ? a rom ?
• Skins ? for what ?
• Productions for children ?
If you want be The Devil's Advocate With Al Pacino and Keanu Reaves...
Give an example , a name to purpose material comparison !
Other, i m not a Judge, i think you watch lot of series on Justice !
EDIT:///
I m not an aggressor ! But when he asked me long times ago, i don't use his technic... then i ask him to share, to explain more about Radio version !
Answer : MY rom, MY drivers, MY apps !
Maybe i m an stupid idiot but i can't understand why it make it like that !
