The Cingular 8525 is the HTC Hermes aka the HTC TyTN.
If you read the threads in the HTC Hermes section, you'll find everything you need to know about the ROMs available for your phone and links as to where to find them.
The ROMs contain the Operating System, aka WM5 or WM6 that you are looking for.
But -- first and foremost -- READ, READ, READ.

HTC Tytn, HTC Hermes, and cingular 8525 is the same phone. Just some cosmetic differences (except the front camera for video calling)... this is not the same as the wizard, that is a different phone.

There are several different versions of the WM6 for the phone you have, just look in the hermes WM6 thread.

If you have the software in the form of a cab file then just transfer the file to your phone, use the file explorer in your phone to locate the new cab and tick on it to install it.

WM6 rom which one do i get?

Hi i'm new. I've just unlocked my SPV M700 thanks to this forum. and now i want Windows mobile 6. But in here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Trinity_Upgrades which one do i use?
and how do i install it?
can anyone help as this is my first PDA and i'm a little confused. The step by step guide for unlocking it was fantastic.

think you'd get more out of writing it in the trinity upgrade forum where more trinity owners and upgraders are likely to come across your post before it's
pushed out of the forum by more general threads

no, you don't need to have it cid-unlocked. everything is in this great forum! read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
after you've flashed your phone with the USPL, you can have ANY rom you want on your phone!
if you got tired of the rom of your choice, you can change it again! simply flash your device once more with the USPL, then flash with another rom of your fancy. as great as that!
remember, as a precaution, just ALWAYS flash your device with the USPL first before you flash again with any rom.

Thank you - however, Its not clear to me what that mod is for? Are there any PDA's out there which have gps, phone, wifi, bluetooth yet support SDHC?
Thank you!

The good start is to check the Wiki, it has step by step instructions on flashing. However, I have to warn you that if you have a 64Mb device, WM6.5 is not such an amazing idea, simply due to memory constraints, so give it a thought before you begin, there are great WM6.1 ROMs available for upgrade, give them a go, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

New to I-Mate.

Hi there. I'm new to I-mate and I have no idea about ROMs, HTC and everything. I was reading through all posts and most links were not working.
Basically, my version of I-mate is 1.30.76 WWE and I want to update it to Windows Mobile 6. Is it possible to do this?
I tried going on the club I-mate website but I think they might be having some technical difficulties. Its not opening.
Can someone please give me step by step instructions as to how I can update my I-mate to a much better version or operating system.

Make sure your ROM unlocked. Remove SD Card. Put Uni into bootloader mode. Run upgrade app you've downloaded. Full instructions on Wiki (which is down at the moment).

I bought the I-mate new and sim free. I tried 3 different sim cards on 3 different netowrks and it worked. How do I make sure my ROM (what is it?) is unlocked? and how do I put I get hold of the upgrade application.
Also, when is the Wiki site re-opening?
Thanks alot.

Welcome to forums
Not any ETA when Wiki will be open but have a look on my signature link, you´ll find a lot stuff to install a new ROM
Good luck,

i-Mate is dead.

Do you please know when Wiki will open in order for me to update my i-mate jasjar. Otherwise, does anyone have a step by step guide to how to update it.
Would I be able to get Windows Mobile 6 on the i-mate jasjar?

Here is xda-developers wiki(from 2008) from archive.org http://web.archive.org/web/20080521015347/wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Universal

You can even get WM6.5

Thank you guys so much! I managed to update my I-mate to WM6.1 following your signature links. Its quite impressive but I was wondering, is it possible to upgrade my Ram? Its currently 64MB. Could I increase it to 128MB or higher?
And also, are there WM6.5 for 64MB I-mates?

Glad to know it helped
-Have a look on Universal section, there are some places where you can upgrade your RAM.
And yes Tomal v10 is WM6.5 and works on 64Mb Uni´s

Thanks! You've been of great help. I checked Tomal's v10 but the link to download is not working . Do you know of any links he has put up that work?

Oh never mind. I have found it. Thanks a lot you guys. You are the best! I'll start making my own roms and if I am successful, I will post them on this website. I-mate, Universal...... etc rock!
Shame they went bust.
Have a great day .

looking forward to see your ROM!
