What is the best WM6 Rom for T-Mobile MDA Vario II (which work best with Vario II, support keys, video call, ...)?
Well, isn't that the question of the year. *boggles*
Unfortunately many newbies ask it. You need to do your research on the forum, and above all else, try some. What is the best for some isn't for others.
Just make sure you HardSPL your device first. Without that, there's no real comeback if you brick it.

what don't you mean with artemis hermes? in the Smartphone under the Akku “HTC innovation” stands. what means that?
So if MDA Compact 111 is Artemis is this unlock software no good for it. If so is there anything else out there yet.
Its not good for it
Hello,
I am afraid to tell you, its not. We all waiting with bated breaths for a free unlocker, however, if you want, it costs £20GBP at imei-check.co.uk.
Pof....we can maybe donate £10, is that good enough an incentive ?
Ok I just bought an unlocked Cingular 8525 today. I am using it on T-Mobile. Just upgraded my account so I have the unlimited internet addon. And now someone told me I just upgrade WM5 to WM6 and gave me a link to this site. I have been reading stuff on here all day. But I am still kinda confused. I can't really find the WM6 for T-Mobile ROMs. I found This. But I don't think it is the WM6 upgrade. Could someone please point me in the right direction. Also I plan on doing the upgrade route were I put the HERMIMG.nbh on my memory card and upgrade it like that.
Thanks for any help!

start by going to the wiki..read all of that, and you should be fine.
I have read different sections of the wiki. I just bumped into something and it looks like there aren't specific ROMs that I need to look at to upgrade to WM6 is this correct? If I get one of These 11 different ones will any of them work? Thats what I think I am seeing. If I do need a specific one please let me know.
Thanks for the quick reply.

I'm assuming you are talking US T-mobile. There is no ROM dedicated for Tmob-US yet. Keep reading. Some topics to search for...HARD-SPL, Pof sim unlocker, LVSW, Schap, Sleuth, black, vp3g, ELF. There are many variants. Do your homework. Take your time. Read the wiki.
And try them!
I have tried LVSW, Sleuth, Faria, Black and Custel.
I play with each for a few hours or a few days.
No better way to see how you like it than to try it out on your device.

I smell a brick coming... dont read SOME of the WIKI read the WHOLE HERMES section.. until you completely understand what it is you need to do.
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=45&Itemid=26
Would that be a good guide to help me through the upgrading process?
It's a good guide.
Read the wiki though, especially the 'common problems...' and 'upgrading' parts.
You don't want a brick.

Hi,
As per the post below on O2 I thought I would drop T-Mobile an email.
Here is the reply
"Good afternoon.
Thank you for your email.
We had thought about providing an upgrade to WM6 for our devices, however we have decided against this. It was decided that our phones ran well with WM5 and to concentrate our resources on releasing our new MDA Touch and, in time, MDA Vario III with WM6.
Kind regards.
Paul Byrne
T-Mobile"
I am have been monitoring the various WM6 roms on this site but I was holding off on updating my MDAC3 to see if T-Mobile would update it. Seems like that ain't going to happen.
Bugger, may have to take the plunge with one of the ROMs on here.
Regards
take a plunge mate, use the uspl tool and then upgrade, its easy if you follow instructions,
thats T-mobile for you though, they dont look after there customers properly. shoddy i say. its not like they have to pay for it. they could even just get hold of the original htc copy and put there code on it for there branded device. ndont take much...
im using the new rom with the htc touchflo included, and its bloody awesome.
ive been running a few WM6 roms without any problems on my MDACIII.
Ive been running the 3.5 rom recently which is great and as we speak im upgrading to 3.7.
Please Delete.
not a scooby but its a higher version and im a sucker for the latest and greatest.
Please Delete.
Would I have to unlock my MDACIII if I am to also upgrade the ROM to WM6 of which is available here?
No, but you'll need to download and run the USPL first.
Hi, Im new to this forum. I owned a wing & ridded of it. Now i posses the 8925 tilt. I was just wondering does HTC Hermes Sim/CID Unlock V3a auto unlock feature work on my device? I did read that it works with all hermes divices, but it only lists TyTN but not TyTN II. Just being cautious.
seriously? there is a whole section dedicated to the kaiser (att 8925)
