i have read that article, sounds easy but it is not as easy as many think...
anway, we can flash all versions and all roms allready but we do not release it, we just do it for dealers in china and hk, if there is any request can contact us
btw, unlocking is also possible
and what's funny is, i don't trust your company as there isn't a single US reseller.

first of all, we have an us reseller, second of all you no need to trust us, and finally third thig, it is NOT PUBLIC YET, we just doing it for ourself or for dealers in china or hk.
and spending $65 for something that can be done for free is justified right??? and apparently your "US" reseller is supposedly based out of arizona, yet has a Washington DC AND an arizona number? yeah that sounds legit...why have a DC number??
i'm super happy for you that you figured out how to CID unlock these phones, i really am; but charging people for it? that's BS, especially when there's completely FREE alternatives! sure, you're product is for n00bs, but what's the percentage of people who are n00bs that have WM phones?

than show me free alternative how to simunlock or cidunlock this phones feel free and post here the link... :roll:
so the possibility are:
- do not unlock your cid and use the only the rom from your vendor
- wait until solution is free
- call raskal and bring phone to his office
Believe me, a dealer having 50 or more phones, have no time to wait or to think, he need sell out his stock and turn the money again..., and belive me he is not a n00b, otherwise he would not be a dealer.
and prove to me your "service" CID unlocks this phone...

Just kidding, it wasn't me....but I'd more than happy to help in ANY way I can.

Sorry for redundancy, but I asked the same question over at SPV...
Any idea when you'll be releasing the unlocker to the minions? I found a band-aid for the missed call problem with the Qtek (here) , but we're waiting for the permanent fix of installing a working ROM.
Herewith an email I have just received from the HTC Europe.
"Hello
HTC Europe are releasing a ROM update for the HTC TyTN (expected release date end of January 2007).
The ROM will be posted in the support section of the HTC Europe website.
This ROM update resolves all known issues with the HTC TyTN."
Yours sincerely
Dan Mackie

Man this is good news and we will at last know in which direction HTC is moving. Just patching problems with the existing software or patches and real development. It's the moment of truth!
Roll on end January.
I believe that the upgrade will be AKU 3.? and that "WM5 second edition" will form the nucleus of this upgrade.
It looks like Microsoft is comming to the party!
Cant wait for end-Jan now ...
This ROM update resolves all known issues with the HTC TyTN."
>"This ROM update resolves all known issues with the HTC TyTN."
thats fantastic news!
Awesome news! looking forward to it...... fix voicemail dismiss issue? please??
is this aku 3.0?? or just another aku 2.3??
edit: after test it is the same thant the latest rom htc, sorry
Sounds good, really looking forward ta having many of the bugs fixed on my Tytn.
does HTC Europe mean HTC the corporation is going to release the updates to all carriers or just European carriers?
Have to wait and see. I'm sceptical about HTC these days. My tytn doesn't work like it should be and like i want it.
Did send two mails to HTC and received one back. One mail was redirected to my local distributor and was also waiting and disappointed about HTC for ROM updates.
My other mail was send directly to HTC and nada responce. shame on you HTC.
Have my device for more then five months and now they are releasing out of the blue a ROM update, gonna be a update of disappointment. It doesn't gonna fix that much. ( !!! bluetooth > carkits!! and speed !!!).
Let's hope.
Dear [email protected] , you're fired!
In a company "promishing" is "fried air selling" as we say in Italy.
You will buy "fried air"? Yes, when it will be available, practically NEVER
In the management schools they suggest, when you want to talk about future, to say a deadline of your statement. If you want to make marketing campaign use "rumors", on-line "stolen" (not really) ROM test.
This is IMO another example of joung (and confused) company growing up too fast for his management.
So I suggest to believe to this "end of the month fix", with ALL KNOWN ISSUES FIXED when we will see it flashed in our phones; if you search in this forum we are full of "next month" upgrade.
Latins... are always valuable "spes, ultima Dea..." means "Hope is the last God remaining at our side". So the lesson learned from this HTC customer care could be... the TyTans are defeated but Spes (Hope) is still with us. Hey HTC, do you know that Hermes is the God of the robbers?
:Mode Happy new year ON:
Also Hermes tortured TyTan (owners?); Zeus (HTC) sends Hermes to confront the enchained Titan (Our phone)Prometheus about a prophecy of the Titan's (owners) that Zeus (HTC) would be overthrown (From Nokia? From Motorola?). Hermes scolds Prometheus for being unreasonable and willing to endure torture, but Prometheus refuses to give him details about the prophecy ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermes )
I've understood at least wy they called HERMES the TyTn, it was a prophecy, we will be tortured!

As I was in contact with them about issues on my TyTn, I believe this will be an update from HTC for their TyTn branded phone. I guess the other operators will follow with their own ROM updates, based on this one. ?????
We will have to wait and see what AKU version will be used but I predict it will be 2.6 - but hey maybe we get lucky! I doubt if the ROM will be much different to the one released in the RSA. Bootloader 1.9!
I still think their service is poor as HTC has taken more than 6 months to notify us of an update, knowing that their phone was buggy.
On service alone they should not have had the TyTN named "Phone of the year - 2006" ( Check htc.com website)
I think you're shooting too low with your AKU prediction. I'm going on record as predicting it'll be at least AKU 3.2... My rational is that to "fix all bugs" will require a massive BT stack improvement. M$ didnt' release these improvements until AKU 3.0

I think they could made a bigger effort than a 2.6 AKU, and may be they will, having a look to the only frightening number for a CEO: revenue trends!
Look here: http://www.htc.com/investor_service/04-investor-1.htm
They have this year many different devices compared with 2005, they have a new strategy (HTC directly involved instead of I-Mate, QTEK) and november revenues, compared to last year revenues....
I hope today is happening what I was hoping: they will listen the stakeholders (we) only when the shareholders (they have Nokia phones ) will notice some warning from analysts.
At that time we will have our 3.2 AKU for TyTn, or may be we will have even Crossbow (not as a gift I'm afraid)
When was the last time anyone ever "fixed all bugs"? And whenever they do fix the bugs, when have they not create newer ones?
Don't you guys know the difference between "all" and "all known"? For instance, when I mailed them with hang after wake up issue, they answered, they are not aware of this problem, that all works good in their tests (="we still don't know about this problem")!
bogus or not
it's a hell of a news..after 6 months...

Sure I know the difference. But since when do software developers exaggerate their deliverables? If they say all, they mean all. LOL
I don't know what you're talking about perlmane, my software doesn't have bugs. It exhibits "undocumented features"
Think of them as little suprise gifts that push you over the edge one day causing you to upgrade!
Hey, may be we are the poor cousins having the hermes (no caps lock on h). In this forum there are guys having some other Hermes (with caps lock). I believe it should be another model, because they wrote messages informing us that they HAVEN'T any hangup or sofware "undocumented features"
I called the the Hermes customer service but there was an aswering machine

Well, after the last email i sent to dopod about a newer firmware i posted here, i sent another one, as theres obviously AKU3.3 updates from HTC themselves.
Dear Michael,
The 838pro ROM code is AKU2.3
I checked our schedule again for you and nothing has changed since your last email . There would not be any new ROM update in future for the Dopod 838 Pro.
If you want an updated unit, we suggest buying the newer Dopod 810. I appreciate that the Dopod 838 Pro is our current top PDA, however, we feel no update is needed. If your not happy with not having WPA2, i suggest more care in selecting a PDA next time.
Thanks.
Kind regards,
ANZ Service
Dopod International (Australia New Zealand) Pty Ltd
ABN 48 119 011 639

Be rest assured, the "CARE" i take next time, will be NEVER to buy, or recommend a Dopod to anyone ever again. Considering they are trying very hard to break into the Australian market, they've done an appaling job at winning customers with crap service like this.
And no offence but its clear they don't care and are employing monkeys with there "engirsh"
8one pissed off Dopod owner8
Gosh That's really bad news...
I will also Inform and Definately NOT recommend to any of me friends/forums on DoPoD Devices (YuCK!)
or you can politely make it known to them that we've a aku 3.3 update for hermes here so they can just put a note in their future sales boxes to inform customers to come here to update a software that they are too lazy to do
:LooooooooooooooooooooL: m8!!
They surely are lazy!
that is fu**n s**t of Dopod as im using a Dopod 838 Pro.... as i stuffed by radio when trying to unlock the CID im now stuck to Dopod... might just have to go and buy the IMEI-CHECK unlocker....
Ahh wells.. At least they are the OEM distributor for HTC. We still can get nice updates.
Thats the bit about it all i don't understand.
HTC own Dopod now. There supposed to be HTC's break into Asia pacific etc.
Even though HTC release newer, needed ROM's, dopod's answer to that is essentially "Go F**k yourself, we want more money from you, so to upgrade buy another PDA"
Rest assured, when i buy a new PDA, especially in Oz, it won't ever be a Dopod thats for sure.
If your not happy with not having WPA2, i suggest more care in selecting a PDA next time.

Someone interacting with customers and talking like that will soon find out that this can be "career limiting experience".
What is the email for the support or the person you contacted?
I reckon if enough of us ask about it they might respond
Cheers
If they're owned by HTC, I'd forward that onto them. It is not good customer service to respond like that. A
nyway the problem is that when you are buying a device finding information in that much detail is very hard and it is completely capable of WPA2 and you would assume a market leading device would be capable of that.

I've fowarded onto HTC. Lets see what they have to say about how there new retail arm treats HTC's new market and potential customers.
Seriously, i can handle them not doing an update (although that in itself is poor customer after sales support, basically buy the unit then we don't give a f**k about you) but the complete lack of respect for me and their own company pisses me off.
Oh well, how ever much i actually love the device, another dopod product will never grace my hands again, thats for sure.
yeah, dopod service sucks in this part of the world. you should pray that the device has no issue. i have a loose stylus issue and would rather not send it in for servicing

what a tool!
Some people really dont understand how to treat their customers. There are hundreds of better ways he could have gotten his point accross without being rude, and contradicting himself.
Hi, first post here.
I have owned numerous PDA's over the last 5yrs or so and cannot remember any of them getting an upgrade for the firmware. There have been various updates to fix minor bugs but usually if you wanted a newer OS then you replaced the PDA. HTC and Dopod arent doing anything different than any other manufacturer. I dont like it either but can see that if they released a new OS for the product then no-one would buy the newest kit.
It stinks but thats how it is
Umm, clearly you are very mistaken.
PDA's have had continuos updates for bug fixes etc for a long time. The Hermes has bugs that need to be resolved.
AKU3.3 is NOT a new OS. Its WIN CE 5 still, just with latest patches. Nearly all other manufacturers release updates. I don't care what happened 5 years ago, then industry and its problems then are nothing like they are today.
Its perfectly acceptable to expect a third party producer of a product, that the main manufacturer has released updates for, to get of their own lazy arses and customise that update for them.
What your saying, is its perfectly fine to release unfinished, bug ridden hardware/software and then the consumer should just pay for a whole new unit on a hope that that one isn't as bad.
Or, would you expect a simple update that they have to do very little work to customise to be released when its spoon fed to them.
Tell you what, buy a car from me, i won't include wheels with it. Everythign will work, but it will be usesless to you. You'd expect me to supply some simple wheels, but i will palm you off with bad service, **** english and tell you you should buy the newer, better car as that has wheels.
Um, clearly in my post i stated:
There have been various updates to fix minor bugs but usually if you wanted a newer OS then you replaced the PDA. If this is a MINOR update then I stand to be corrected.
You can keep your car by the way
No its not minor, its probably in the same capacity as SP2 was for XP.
However, nonetheless, it is an update thats needed to make the devices function as they are supposed to.
The update has been released by HTC to carriers. Dopod, are simply to tight and lazy to do anything, and beleive it acceptable to shaft its customers, rather than what some of the better carriers are doing (HTC direct, AT&T etc) and releasing an update thats much needed.
Im not asking for them to update to Crossbow for free. Im asking them to release a standard upgrade, to help their device they released to function properly.
you just got the standard Customer Support bugger-off-with-with-new-rom-inquiries reply, it's not up to him to know whether it will be available or not..
Take a look on their website, news section.
The upgrade is OUT since 31/7 and we are blind people !
The truth is that their FTP site today went crashed because all XDA-DEVS users were trying to download the new TyTN official rom for european main languages.
This happens when this morning, in the WM6 section, a Trinity user posted the FTP address and username and password were discovered
In the afternoon HTC chose to publish "the official release is out", dated 2 days ago, without having set ut the download site. Is better than saying, YES, THEY CRACKED OUR FTP SITE AND ALL THE ROM WE WERE STORING THERE, WAITING THE OPERATOR CUSTOMIZATIONS, WENT STOLEN.
Waggener Eddstom Internet rapid responce team , the same working for Microsoft works for HTC too, and I am sure they suggested this strategy to reduce the damage in terms of company's image.
Now you can find all national HTC TyTN official ROM on rapidshare, who cares about htc e-club?
To read all the story just check the WM6 section or click here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320829
It sounds great!
Ah, the world weeps.
Stolen.. hahahahahaha... Can they not say another better thing.
I have mail them every day in this week. They say at that should comes before aug. But that are that month now so...
My next phone not be a HTC.
I just registered my TyTN (branded TMN, a major Portuguese mobile Operator) and I'm currently downloading the upgrade with my slow UMTS connection.
I suppose that if they let me come this far I should be able to upgrade...
Would I still get warranty support if I install official HTC upgarde?

Ok that's bad, for navigation i will use my HD2 again with Navigon.
Thanks so far!
Nokia Drive works fine for me
Yeah, what is wrong with Nokia Drive? Is it because you still need a data connection when running? They will release an update soon that should fix this for full offline routing...
What's the use of a smartphone without data anyway? Nokia Drive doesn't use much bandwidth to look up the directions. Everything else is already stored on the phone.
It depends if you are in area with a connection. I found it baffling that I downloaded the maps and then still had to be connected!

M8, The Lumia in the app department... is weak as ****, I've spent about £100 on apps which i've already got for free on other phones, it makes me sick.
The one which pushed me over the edge is the Sonos app, free on every other platform!!! And it's actually called "Sonos", on windows phone, it's called "Phonos" and it was £7.99p haha, that's a joke, at the rate i was going, i could have bought 6 Lumia's in the space of a year.
I'm sorry but with that in mind I would rather spend my money on something i'm going to enjoy, something which if i want to, i can download an app and try it out and remove it if i don't, i can assign a ringtone to whatever the hell i like, because it's my bloody music, so i bought an evo 3d, best phone i've ever used.
And for the record, Nokia drive sucks ass, major ass, Co-Pilot Live 8 with speed cameras built in, now that's a sat nav, no need for data, just GPS, locks in about 5 seconds.
The lumia came close, and it made me love it, but then it made me hate it, give it cash and eventually resent it, sad really.
I'm giving my Lumia away, it's boxed downstairs, i have no need for it.
You do realise that the Sonos app, 'Phonos' is not official, and that's why it's cost a ton rather than free? It's someone making money while Sonos get their act in gear.
Don't like the Nokia maps, want Navigon as on my HD2, very good app (premium version!).
What if you are i a different country like Belgium or Germany, don't wanna roam costst a lot (-;

For free obviously because Navigon is in the Marketplace.
If you use it a lot, it's only normal to pay for the software.
yep but with every other device i had i must buy new navigation software.
I have TomTom & Sygic but they don't develop on WP7, so you are a brave one and buy everything? don't use XDA cracked roms, xapfile install and many other options here provided?
