Cingular 8525 3D Effects 'rom'

I have the 8525 and would love to have the best rom ever especially while this new iphone is coming out. Is there a rom out there that has the best 3D effects for the phone or is someone working on a rom like that. because if we can get are 8525 to have the 3D effects I think that there won't be any phone that can touch ares. the iphone and the new touch phone, that's the only thing '3D effect' they have on us... please let's make everyone know why we are sticking with are 8525's. Thank You!

What the heck please obey forum rules and use the SEARCH FUNCTION

searching forums
I've installed so many ROMS, searched the forums. I know what he means. We've all see the youtube demo of the flashy screen changes. I think I have the perfect rom then its not. Reinstalling new roms and restoring the 50+ apps sucks every time. Yeah, I have SPB backup, but it's worthless on apps with new registry settings.
I've been using modded roms way back on many phones for SEVERAL years. The Iphone will be the best / current phone out. Can't wait till we crack into it. (I know everyone is excited about this.)
I personally use my PDA/phone for business and need everthing to work, and keep on working.
Currently 8525.
I still am craving a true VGA phone with a 850 GSM. The QVGA seems stuck as the main choice.

umm... speak for yourself BigBad... I'm not excited about the iphone at all.. My 8525 does everything it does pluse more. Videos and music? yah we can do that... oh missing the 8gig or whatever? so what, i use orb and have access to my network hard drive in my house which lets me view/listen to 120 gigs of videos/music
The iphone i see it is for consumer whores... Did u see the demo on installed apps through safari? they skip!
i think its a worthless device put together by a briliant team that knows how to suck every penny out of mr. and mrs. average joe!
And NO i am not one of those apple hating windows hard core freaks. I'm currently writing this on my macbook with my hermes connected to windows xp which is running on my macbook through parallels.... i have the best of both worlds and don't see an iphone entering mine anytime soon!

The Iphone
you guys forgot to mention its only 2g!! Only wifi i-net connect, nuff said!!!!!

i'm so sorry being a noob, but honestly i searched and searched every where but i can not find a rom with 3D effects. Maybe you guys are miss understanding me on this...i know they have the rom that has the touch rom and iphone rom 'look a like' but it does not do what the touch htc and iphone does like when the screen turns around and things like that. the only reason i wrote this post was maybe someone can at lease point me in the right place...i currently have black 3.0 and love it.... again i search every where everyday and that's why decided to do this post. don't get me wrong i love everybody's hard work on the roms they do that is amazing, so i'm not dissing anyone...i just wanted the 8525 to be the best that it can be and hopefully have a lot of 3D effects.....SORRY

TouchFlo on Hermes

I Phone not up to Par
The i-phone device thing is inferior in many ways. The only thing it has on the Hermes is that it looks really cute and colorful. The processor on it is only 300 mhz, why go backwards, only 2g. Connectivity-wise not even, please. But again it is cute looking.

My theory...
You know, what if posts like this current thread
as well as posts like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313701

are actually people working for MS trying to piss off the chefs enough so that they will stop sharing their ROMs? Just a thought.

Hate to bring life to a dead thread...but will the hermes ever support touchflo? Is it a hardware limitation?

In the Wizard forum we have gotten a hold of a working wizard rom with touch flo working in it. Ie the cube application with touch spinning it along with the scrolling feature. So I would assume it won't be long before this is ported to the hermes and many other devices...

well if it has already been tested on the hermes where can we download it?

No it will not, and dont try it ok... cause you can brick your phone...

ROM Advice
Hey All!
I haven't been following the rom scene lately and I don't wish to start a flame war on the topic.. I'm just interested in some general information on what different roms are available form my Dash. If there is an existing post, please direct me too it as I have been trolling but did not find anything terribly informative on the topic.
I've been experiencing weird issues on my 6.0 standard rom. ICScontrol not working, wm9 codecs not working and i figure its time to try something new..
I'm looking for features of the rom, a how-to on installing it (already familiar with flashing, no big woop.. just don't wanna brick it), and what roms are available for the s60.
Information is much appreciated!
Thanks,
Nick

let us know how ya like it. theres a lot to customize in rickys rom. im running version 12 and im just now getting it exactly the way i like it.

If you need anything for a restore, the Original ROMs are in my sig.
These are all, of course, 5.0 and 6.0 releases. Nothing interesting, just useful if you are stuck at the bootloader, need to restore for a warranty etc.

Hah, i don't think i'll have to worry about my warranty any more.. I was impressed with the Dash for the following reason..
A few months ago I was visiting a friend, I pulled my phone out and set it on the arm of the chair I was sitting in. My friend asked me to hand him something within my reach, when I reached for it I knocked my phone off the chair... Directly into a BUCKET OF WATER!!!! As I watched my phone sink to the bottom I thought "WHO KEEPS A BUCKET OF WATER NEXT TO THEIR CHAIR?!?!?!?"..
The phone remained on even after I pulled it out.. I quickly yanked the battery out and patted it dry. I let it sit for a few hours and also put it over the heater vent in the car.
Surprisingly, it survived! No weird behavior, no power issues (other then my now swollen battery).. The phone survived! Holly crap!
So needless to say, I am impressed by this durability of this phone..

IT WORKED!
Wooha! It worked.. Just gettin into all the features.. But I love it so far!!!
Thanks for all the help, add this to another success story!

WM6 to WM6.1 - What are the Pros & Cons?
Hello,
I'm a long time member but just haven't had the time to come on here. Some of you might remember me from before. I haven't had the chance to upgrade from WM6 to WM6.1 - Can someone please be kind enough to list the pros & cons? Also, are all applications compatible from before and finally, how's the ROM speed and reception?
Thanks in advance

In my opinion the biggest pro would be the sliding panels theme. I can't think of any cons, but I'm sure some crybaby will. lol

Pros: What Organic said. New PIe that sucks 20% less. Threaded messaging is smart. Tons of well cooked ROMs that exploit it.
Cons: You can't get it in an official ROM from your vendor, so you will have to look up the settings for Internet, MMS and follow the instructions when doing the first cold boot. OMG.

just install it. no if, and, or buts about it.
well, some crybaby did say that the radio isnt better, but worse. only 1 crybaby though. IMO i think its better, but i never tested. i would say its not better or worse.
on the bright side, its faster, more solid, more and better apps, more memory....umm better battery life? i cant confirm this tho. i have ricky's rom v17 i think and im happy with it. i can tell u its waaaaaaaayyy better then WM6.

One more in favor Just installed last night ricki´s rom v20a. Just awesome. Didn´t find a glitch yet. Very complete set of applications... i only miss a rss reader but there´s plenty of them out there. At least this version as a connection wizard so i didn´t had to look for mms, etc, settings in the net.
So far i only think it has less programs memory available after a reboot. In my case a little more than 17mg. With WM6 i had about 19mg. Not a big thing...
In the end, is too good to let it slide...

If I wanted to update my HTC 620 to WM6.1 where would I get the firmware to do it. I am new to this but would like the options of sliding screens etc. any help would be gratefully accepted.

first thing you should do is read one of the many many many many threads about your very question.

Which do you like better?

QVGA ROM for Diamond

Thinking about how much snappier the Kaiser is in operation than the Diamond despite a slower CPU I was wondering if the Diamond could be made to run QVGA to lessen the load on the hardware.
Personally I think VGA is overkill on such a tiny screen and would be happy with QVGA.
Does such a thing exist? could I use a ROM from a different device?

bump........

No.
The phone is designed to run in VGA mode. It is a VGA phone regardless of what ROM you use.

Thanks for the reply. Looks like the bin for the Diamond then after only 3 weeks of ownership...

exactly, how much snappier is it?
not sure about this one...

what are you talking about I had Kaiser with all newest ROMs in those days and wasnt snapier so pls be so kind and dont write stupid threads...rather buy HTC touch 3G or Jade...kaiser is sh*t...

It's cos it's not hard to be a senior member, just gotta post more crap, ask more stupid questions (which is the best rom, what's the best radio, how do I do this etc) and you become senior very quickly

I post loads of crap, but am yet to be called Senior... One day though...

Try running a Lite or Clean ROM (one without TF3D) the phone suddenly becomes a beast

I dont know guys what answer you expected...QVGA ROM for VGA device???for snapier use??? Cmon there are a lot of nonsense threads like this so dont blame me...try to ask how to make diamond snapier it would be a lot of better... and finaly I dont feel like senior member so MOD pls change my status to junior sorry guys but this threads goes to nowhere and since diamond has been announced there are a lot of threads about slow diamond etc...so think about it

Play nice guys
and NO!! Diamond is designed to carry VGA screen and VGA ROMs, softwares, etc. etc. QVGA ROMs cannot be run on Diamond. Never designed and never shall be cooked. Frankly doesnt make sense to buy costly VGA device and run QVGA ROMs on it instead buying cheaper QVGA devices in 1st place
Thread closed & shall be trashed soon!!

Best ROM?

I want to know which ROM is worth downloading and upgraded to? I've upgraded my phone to Kavana's 6.1, and seen all these other windows 6.5 and all that. Is Kavana the best one out right now? I mean that I want something that I can be convienient for games, being able to watch youtube (and other websites that are like youtube) FLV files, and the fastest and stable OS. Please don't flame me guys, I just got this phone a couple of days ago, and want to know who's ROM is the best.

Before you get flamed by everyone here for making this thread, I'm gonna tell you there is no best rom. Like we have mentioned to the 100 people that asked this same question before you, it comes down to preference, and taste, every rom we got here are good roms, but the choice is up to the user, to decide which is best. So start flashing and you shall find what siuts you best.

Correct. I would suggest looking at both the "default installed" apps and also look at a few screen shots to see what you would prefer.
There are some differences, so taking the time to research each WM6.5 ROM will save you, possibly, a headache in the end.

mods, do your thing!

I thought this was the What is the Best Rom Thread on the Best Rom?....

Ermmmm......It's all about preference. As I have said many times before. Sorry, I am just a little jet lagged. I finally made it to Eastern Germany, and I don't like the looks of it so far.
It depends on what you want to do with your rom. You want speed, go with NRG, You want looks, and speed, a lil, go with ookba's, You want the daily diet, go with Kavana, you want aesthetics, (how do I spell that?) go with Ricky's .
It is all a personal preference. You have to try each one out and suit your taste my friend. No one ROM has ever suited my taste. If I could combine them all into one, I would happily (again a wrong spelling I fear) do it. But each one has it's own style.
Kind of like a girl. You aren't satisfied with just one until you find the one to fit your every compassion. And I am just misspelling words all over the place tonite, but you have to forgive me, I have been on an 28 hour plane ride. Not one suits your desire until you find the perfect one. You have to try them all out friend, each and every one, until you are at least happy with one.

Yeah I just tried to install ooaka's latest one and now my phone is stuck at the windows mobile screen... Theres nothing I can do now huh?
EDIT: Nevermind i figure it out, just close the thread if u have to. Thanks skyline for giving me some info for which rom does what.

Try to hard reset your phone and refresh again. If that doesn't work try using bootload method mentioned in the forum
Good luck

tmobile windows 5.0 is the best..
personally i spent a week with each rom to see which is the best: and they all were equally good. i just wish there were some way they could combine it. like it was said b4 each cooker had their personal flair on their rom. make sure you try ALL

Yeah, I've found out that ooaka's wm6.5 evolution is perfect for me. Well thanks alot guys for the help, I appreciate it! One more thing, why do a lot of people recommend using opera mobile or mini, instead of IE? I tried searching around but all i can get is that IE is slower, and opera uses java? Lighten me up a bit plz.

Thats just it, IE is slow, clunky, has limited options, and dosent render some web pages very well. Opera is alot faster, user friendly, and overall is a better browsing experiance. My moto Q9h has opera built in as its default browser. I think AT&T was too afraid to release a smart phone with only IE.

Thanks alot for the info man, I appreciate it . I think I'm going to try out opera, because I am actually using it for my computer.

One more thing guys, which one is better opera mini or mobile ?

i'm happy to see this thread stray away from which rom is best... that's just an unfair question, and i take it kind of personal. though i'm not a cooker, (more like an alter of pre-existing fun ) i see it like people trying to turn the chef against each other. and that's just not how it's goning to be here! if more people would use the search engine they would see that there are a number of threads already like this. don't get me wrong, i'm no model member. i just don't like it when threads like this pop up. so now that i'm done with my rant, continue enjoying the pretty things this place has to offer.

I like your sig haha the best one yet!
To cksnah I use Opera mini. I dont think I ever used Opera Mobile.

dam guys just calm down, its like ur going to kill me lol. But yea, I'm going to try and use opera mini. Also thanks to those who actually helped instead of giving me answers that doesn't go with my question .

I think the big difference between the 2 flavours of Opera is -
Opera mini routes all its' traffic through their servers and compresses it before sending it on to your device. For general surfing this is really, really good as everything is faster and less data passes through any data allowance you have. But, you cant access any UN/PW sites with it so banking, webmail etc don't really happen.
Opera mobile does allow the use of cookies and so can be used for such sites. But pages are less compressed and therefore larger to download.
I think that's right.
Something like it anyway ...

Ya, that is pretty much the gist of it. I use Opera Mobile for online bill pay when I can't get to my computer. I like the speed and page load time of Opera Mini. I say install both cksnah252, and use at will.
This might help with the breakdown of the differences between the two - -

I've checked Tmo website and US HTC website too and there is not official new ROM release for US Tmo TP2, where did you get 6.5 ROM for your TP2?
Is it working with US Tmo 3G network?

It's okay. It's a bit slower but not that much. It really depends on what you're doing on it.

I'm one of the ones thinking about going back to 6.1 from the 6.5
It doesn't seem to play nice with some programs I use, and it seems slower. I do like the home page looks a bit more than 6.1, but that isn't enough to keep me using the rom if it keeps crapping up.
There are too many issues I am finding, including the clock issue and lag from larger resources used.

Thanks

It doesn't seem to play nice with some programs I use, and it seems slower. I do like the home page looks a bit more than 6.1, but that isn't enough to keep me using the rom if it keeps crapping up.

Yeah, the home screen is nicer and I like that plugin that detects where you are for the current weather. I've only had one run-in with a program and makes it difficult to run and that's iGO8's TTS. Because 6.5 is a memory hog, I can't seem to get TTS working unless I close manila.exe, restart, and run CleanRAM. Luckily I find the TTS distracting enough that I don't really need it all the time. I've had LOTS of errors installing various programs but everything seems to be working. I had to turn off the error notification in order to just be happy with operations.

I've also noticed that the messaging app keeps popping up ever so often. Anyone else notice this?

I am also having the time sync problem with my tp2.
I am using the official tmo 6.5 os and I am getting tired of this issue.
The reason I got rid of my watch was because I thought I had a dependable clock on my phone.

Yup same issues. BUT after doing alot of tweaks and changing alot of registry entries, I finally like how my phone is working. It is true, it's a memory hog but I got use to it. BTW in the beginning after upgrading to the Tmo 6.5 official rom, I wanted to go back to 6.1 but couldn't. I even talked to the Tmo. support and how I hated the upgrade and made my phone work like crap. She said the only way to go back to 6.1 is to get another phone from them (swap for a new TP2 with 6.1 still). So this is my story about 6.5 upgrade. So if you have 6.5 and want to go back to 6.1 on a Tmo TP2 better do that now before they run out because the Touch HD2 is coming from them.

Here you can download the original 6.1 TMOUS ROM

So . . . . has anyone else experienced this clock time lag.
I have been on 6.5 for about 2 weeks and my clock is regularly 3 minutes behind.
(I have a separte TP2 running sometimes JoshKoss Perfect Black and sometimes NRG roms - that device is never behind)
Any thoughts on why on the stock TMo 6.5? There is a small thread on the TMo forums, but it really didn't shed much light.
H E L P . .

WTF do these dumbass replies not relate to the thread title
just look at the thread title and compare it to these dumb ass, off topic posts...

I've checked Tmo website and US HTC website too and there is not official new ROM release for US Tmo TP2, where did you get 6.5 ROM for your TP2?
Is it working with US Tmo 3G network?
Thanks in advance for your comments.

I just found a leaked file but it's good to have the official one, thanks a lot.
BTW, what do you think of the 6.5 upgrade? I've read some people complains and some others went back to 6.1

It's okay. It's a bit slower but not that much. It really depends on what you're doing on it.

thanks for all your comments...??? That's a ****ing laugh...You didn't start the thread you goon, you hijacked it and rendered it rather useless...
if you have nothing beneficial and on topic to add to the original post, don't post anything at all, or start your own thread...

Aunt Flo visiting??
Wow, someone is having a bad day...
...and for the record, the clock issue seems to be in part due to a "coolness" factor...or at least that seems to be what the consensus says.
Also telling someone who may be interested in 6.5 that there are some issues beyond the clock issue, is not hijacking the thread, it is warning them that another thread may be needed to fix something else that has gone wrong.
Finally, several of the 6.5 issues have been addressed in cooked roms, but they themselves are not 100% bug free, and one may be trading a stock rom issue for a cooked rom issue.
When a solution is found, and works 100% I am absolutely certain someone will post about it and will be practically wetting themselves over said fix.

Perhaps you should take your own rather b*tchy advice (as your post also was of no benefit and provided no fix to the OP's querry). You were quite rude in calling a fellow XDA member a MORON. I'll also add that if you have nothing NICE to say, don't say anything at all.

lol...seems i've struck a nerve...lmao...the raw truth often does...

No the truth doesn't hurt, it is your RUDENESS to other members that bothers me.
Whether a thread has or has not veered off topic is not a reason to be a rude asshole to other members...
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR VERY OWN POST HAD NOTHING BENEFICIAL TO ADD TO THE OP'S QUERY, THEREFOR WAS JUST AS MUCH A HIJACKING AS THE ONES YOU CLAIMED TO BE.

who said anything about the truth hurting, sweetheart?
i see why you couldnt follow the original thread topic...it's because your context clues, are supbar at best...lol...

Trolls are not welcome

Striking a nerve implies creating pain. Strike a nerve is a colloquialism for something with negative connotations, while Strike a chord, has positive ones. As you used the term STRIKE A NERVE in the same sentence alluding to the truth...I answered you with the truth does not hurt. Perhaps you were confused with what implications to use, and you really meant to use the positive terminology of Strike a Chord.

Now you not only insult other XDA members, but now attack me for pointing out a very glaringly obvious point to your own post---that you did nothing yourself to answer the OP's posting. Perhaps you have Napoleonic Syndrome and feel it is necessary to attack others to somehow make yourself feel better. We do not need bullies at XDA. Feel free to troll some other website.
If you feel it is truly necessary to continue to attack XDA members and/or flame this thread, go right ahead, as it is now YOU taking it so far off course that I am sure it will soon be closed. I have spoken my mind, and will not engage you further. If you must get the last word in to save your tiny manhhood, then go ahead. If you post again after THIS entry, we shall have our answer about what sort of person you are. That is the RAW TRUTH.
