Hello! I'm 13 and obviously am not going to be near as knowledgable on the subject as you guys. My situation is I "accidently" :wink: cracked my screen on my Audiovox PPC4100 so I just grabbed the SX66 from cingular. Issue is I am trying to decide whether or not to upgrade my ROM to WM2005....Now Now, I do know there has been a thread about debating whether to upgrade to WM2005 because of loss of features, but mine is more of a "How bad am I going to screw this up?" debate. Do you suggest me to give it a shot? Or when a more stable version comes out, will it be an easier installation process?
Thanks in advance,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Welcome to the forum. In answer to this question, you could end up with a dead SX66 :!:
Be very, very careful. :wink:
Hi guys,
Sorry, but I'm getting a bit lost reading all the posts on WM5 on BA and was wondering if somebody could verify the latest/greatest rom available at the moment?
I'm under the impression that one of the roms has AKU2 in it, but is this for the BA or the Himalaya? I just got an XDAIIs.
Many thanks,
Fergus.
Hi,now it's sure,the Trinity will not benefit upgrade with the official wm6 rom.For info,read here
Check this out
http://www.dopodasia.com/global/hke/news/20070503_Dopod_WM6_upgrade.html
I 've already read this, but i think it's not for Htc Europe.
I donno where I've read it but I remember that dopod will upgrade the 3600 to wm6
Edit sorry losai already mention it
It's an old news you've got "Marcdu81" (april) !! Maybe the petition will have an effect !!
This is old news man! HTC already stated that if demand was high they would change views. I will not even bother posting the threads, go search yourself. Think before you post!
Sorry guys,but i've Phone to Htc France and they confirm : No wm6 for Trinity : I ask him this question : Why ? I wait again the answer !
I think you can wait a long time for nothing...There is no reason except "marketing" !!

You don't need a ROM from HTC. You can load the Dopod ROM to your device when it is released. If you need a French ROM, I'm sure that someone here will make one from the original Dopod D810 WM6 ROM.
i have an official email from Dopod Australia saying that they will be releasing a WM6 gps version soon (in the next couple of months).

Not quite the same getting your ROM from a company that re-badges these devices. I for one am way too lazy to change everything (boot splash etc) in the upcoming Dopod release to make it exactly like HTC.
I think a boycott of HTC phones is way overdue. Eten anyone?

Whilst I sympathise with you - judging by recent reviews I think you should be careful what you wish for...
No longer a product
If you look on the HTC website. The Trinity P3600 is not even listed as a product anymore.....

it has been months. dopod aus never got the wm5 gps rom. i don't know why they are taking so long... probably because customer support doesn't make them money. even o2 was faster in releasing wm6 to atom life (and the support is crap, i've had 2 o2's)
by the time they release wm6 with gps rom, the d810, wm6 and even maybe gps will be obsolete, and we will all have a new device.

I know, but then... that's even more a reason to release it if one of your children companies is about to beat you to it.
Call me picky, but I want all the ROM version information/splash/logos etc all to be HTC.
HTC seems to have some automated response for my questions, even if you ask WHY the trinity ain't on the list of phones expecting an update, they send a link to the press release.
Growing a little tired of HTC lately, they're even removing the infrared port from their trinity-successor, Kaiser. What will I do with my $40 worth of TV remote software? Damn it!

I doubt if Kaiser will be released shortly - It has a Qualcomm chip in it, see http://www.boygeniusreport.com/gallery/handsets/htc-kaiser-unboxing/?pid=668#picture_nav
The US ITC has banned imports on phones with Qualcom chip with immediate effect. See http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/08/business/08phone-web.html
See below - not listed as product by HTC

I was confused as well but after reading into it I think whats new is that its an Official AT&T WM6 ROM. Not the generic HTC one.
Hi guys
Sorry to post but as you can see I'm new here and have read some threads here and there but if someone would be kind enough to point me in the right direction? This site looks like the place to be for this sort of thing..
I have a T-mobile MDA Compact 3 on WM5
ROM: 1.13.110.1 WWE
Radio Version: 02.49.90
I'd like to update/flash the ROM and the handset is slow and hangs here and there, also I have just brought an 8gb SDHC card and the handset doesn't see it when installed?
Could some kind soul point me to the latest ROM flash download and anything else I should read to assist..
Many thanks in advance!
Martin
Hi Mate, first and foremost unlock your sim card.
Then its update your USPL to this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
You will see once this is done that the USL will be 1.11, this means u can pick and choose a rom from here....
Thats really it tbh, can't be anymore simplier. Though make sure you read the USPL part thoroughly.
Hi Super
Many thanks for the response
I spent a few hours today browsing and reading and I found the link you posted and also chose a version to put on "Artemis Touch 4.02 Full with 4 sided cube" to be exact
I can't believe how much faster and a better looking, user menu and applications there is other than the pants one it came with...
Every one at work wants me to do theirs now...lol
The main reason for the flash (if that's what you call it) is so my new 8gb SDHC card would be picked up by the handset correctly and this also worked a treat!
I'll be floating around here more now and soaking up what I can...
Many thanks for replying and the advise
p.s Have you got a link to the version you are using? I may take a peak at that.... feeling brave now lol
Rather than start a new thread could one of you guys recommend the best keypad app such as "touchpal" but a free version as I hate typing with the stylus and much prefer using my fingers??
Many thanks
Try PhonePad from HTC.

Excellent, I've heard about the HTC diamond keypad version but can't seem to locate them on these boards?
Well not 100% what I'm looking for, could some kind soul link me please?
Many thanks
