So, I'm not quite sure I have the slightest idea about anything on here but I've checked for about an hour and haven't found a thread like this sooo...
I just downloaded a pretty kick ass WM6 from somewhere and I'm a little confused as to what was downloaded. I was expecting maybe a ROM or something but I got a bunch of folders. How am I supposed to get all of the folders in ROM format? Oh, by the way I have an at&t 8525 and I already have 6 on it but I bought it from ebay and well, it's missing some things. I wanted to put 6 back on there and start out fresh. Please help I've been trying to understand any of this poop for about 6 hours now and I'm not getting anywhere.
Sorry if this is super ultra noob, It's just I can't figure this out and I really need some help. Sorry if somehow I missed a thread containing something about this. I looked so yeah. haha Any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh and mrvanx is the only thing I could find that would help but it's down so I'm SOL here D:

hey everyone.. just signed up and wanted to say hi.
i just ordered my new MDA, and should be here in a few days! ive had the SK3 for a month after upgrading from the SK2, and its just not what it used to be. Im looking for something with way more functionality other than being cool. Not to mention a more mature phone.
anyway, i just wanted to see if you guys could help me. seeing as how i dont have the phone yet, i wanted to read as much as i can about hacking it up. im aware that the stock phone (USA Tmobile MDA) rom isnt very well, so i need some pointers on where to start...
ive tried searching already, but theres only so many "newbie" threads i can sift through... basically can someone point me into the right direction of everything i need to get started? it would be most appreciated! i guess which rom, how to update, which apps, where to go... lol, basically everything!
ill obvisouly be reading until the day the phone comes (and charged for 12 hours) so i should be more knowledgeable by the time the phone arrives.. but i really appreiciate any help!
thanks!
Maybe you just should to post which MDA you have orderd. Since the good old MDA I / Wallaby isn´t sold anymore, that´s the wrong part of the forum here....
You should take a look at the right part of the forum.

LOL..
im such an idiot. thats what i get for posting at 2am... sorry! i found out it was the HTC Wizard!
just jumped into the fray and once again i am like a duck with its head cut-off.. lost and confused. . . so please bear with me.
my dillemma. i just got a cingular 8525. just found out that its rom is way older than what the current official release from cingular is. so, i guess i should be upgrading right? this being an official release?
what interests me though is ive read about other roms that would offer wm6? now, if i upgrade to these roms, and something goes wrong, will i be able to go back to the official rom by just installing it again?
ive upgraded my moto e398 with MP's, is upgrading to a homebrew rom for my 8525 the same?
thanks.
lol .. definately not the same. Alot of stuff you have to do.. I temp-bricked my 8525 today by not following all the steps... <or being ignorant to a step that I needed to follow..>
first step .. go here:

sorry and i do understand your concern.. thanks for reminding me .. i have searched and actually read a lot.. way to many in fact to be ingested in one sitting.. its just the urge to just jump head first... its the excitement maybe.. but what i do is i post and i still search... and search and read.. but thank you anyway..
honestly.. im a noob.
and when i first joined here i thought i'd never learn. but its not as hard as it seems to be.
it just takes a while of reading
i just recently flashed 2 lsvw's rom and im loving it..
very very stable
Hiya,
I know you've heard it before, and i know the answer is to read all of the threads, but i'm getting more and more confused, and don't want to screw up my phone!
I'm having trouble with Orange and text messages. I have tried to read around for the solution, but cannot find the answer in a simple thread.
I believe I have a G4 device, as IPL/SPL are both 2.21.0001. Thats about as far as i've got.
I don't from here know what to do, even after a few days of reading.
Do i need to CID unlock, or can i get around this? Where can i find a rom that will give me all the functionality I have at the moment, but also be compatible with my 3G simcard? Alternatively, can anyone reccomend someone to speak to, as I'm really struggling.i
Like i say, i know its all been asked before, but its such a minefield and I don't want to get it wrong, so if someone could donate the time to give me a real step by step idiots guide, i would really appreciate it.
THanks in advance.
Hey everyone, I am stuck. Finally got around to playing, and ran the Brightstar RUU to change phone into Dev edition. Everything went perfect thanks to all these great threads here, but now I don't have ANY recovery installed. I didn't notice if it was gone after S-Off'ing, or after the RUU, but now nothing. Has anyone heard of this, and can I put a recovery back on? I DL'd a stock, but I really would like CWM. If anyone can point me in the right direction, much thanks.

Hey, I wanted to thank everyone for NOT posting any answers. Through the help of these forums, I was able to muddy my way through and find the solutions that I seek. Another learning experience for sure. Solution is that even though phone was S-Off, the bootloader had to be RE-unlocked to flash a recovery. But I am sure everyone but me knew that
Moderator can delete/close this thread thanks.

Sorry I didn't see your question in time, just so you know (or i guess you figured out), no-one really monitors the at&t forums. In it's best times their were only about 25 of us in here. In the future take your questions and concerns to the international One forums and you'll have much better luck. At one time their was talk of combining the two forums because all the GSM phones are basically identical.

Oh no, it really is ALL good, I learned so much from it, and it came from both the forums. That's what this site is all about, at least for me it is. I am dang proud of being able to take all the knowledge and posts and ACTUALLY make it work for myself without giving up. The people on this site are just awesome! Just one problem, and thanks to the posts, I learned 5 new tricks!
I have recently purchased my daughter this phone to use for Pokemon Go...since she is only 9 she cannot go walking around too far to play this game..SOOO i am in need of 2 things if at all possible.
1. A rooted stock ROM for this Phone(SuperSU rooted works the best and easiest)
2. A Stock ROM for the phone(Just an exact replica of the ROM that is pre-installed when you first buy the phone, or can remove all the garbage excess stuff if would like? )
I do not have loads of cash but if someone can help me i wouldn't mind donating to them to get this done? Just let me know if someone has these files already(i already have Odin to do the flashing and i know how to do it already, just need these 2 files ) OR if someone would do this for me(for my daughter actually haha) like i said, i would gladly donate to them if they prefer. just whatever it takes
Thanks for the time and for reading my post!
Anyone at all willing to help? or tell me how to make a copy of the phone myself?
Still no answer? is it ok to bump threads like once a week so people can see the thread often? i am desperately needing to find someone to help me. My daughter keeps asking about this and i have to keep telling her i am working on it. I've tried researching how to do it myself...but uhhh it gets kinda confusing and last thing i wanna do is mess the phone up lol. So, if anyone can please help me i'd GREATLY appreciate it! If cannot send the files themselves...if someone could guide me exactly as to how to manage doing it by myself maybe? Thanks guys!
I am afraid to say this is not possible so far I know. A Friend as ask me to unlock his phone, but no success. I think I gonna suggest to sell it in eBay and get another phone which is possible to unlock (and not from Verizon).
