Sorry To Everybody Who Answered Below, But Due To Problems With Hard Drive, I Lost All Roms And Cabs On My Computer. So If A Admin Or Mod Reading This Post, Please Delete It
that would be awesome. when I first came to the forum, I had a real hard time sorting through all the releases.
But the only problem is, you must be updating that thread frequently as there is a new release every few days.
Also it would be even more awesome if you could add a release date next to each link so that people know what is new and what is old and what is being updated.
yeah i would do that, if everyone agrees, will start it next tuesday onwards....
Nice Idea One stop Shop .. Please go ahead and post it.
Go for it, and maybe someone will STICKY it!!
thats the idea, hopefully it will be stickied, gotta get bank holiday weekend outta the way, also might see a couple new roms in next few days....
Fantabulous.
I have the same thing but with all games and apps for the Hermes, too bad I cant post them

Hehe, yeah well for the unscrupulous among this crowd that's what that OTHER site is for.
Good plan Batman, sticky should be defo applied!!!
but i think there would have to be a way of stopping people posting any questions about the ROM or software otherwise the thread will turn into a messy ROM&CAB bank/Support thread!
Also if you can only post 5 attachments on each post, so unless you are going to upload CABs to Rapidshare (or whatever the you use) and then provide weblinks.
Also i would consider not using Rapidshare because once you download a ROM from it you get banned from download for 30-120 mins depending on the network traffic at the time, i think you should consider using SENDSPACE, MEGAUPLOAD, THERE IS LOADS MORE UNLIMITED ONES HERE
Last point, think the thread should only have your Posts on it, cantact a MOD with the idea and ask them if it is possable

For the Newbs who read it
Being one who looks at this site everyday for different products I can use it would be perfect.
Just make sure you set it up for newbs also. who don't understand things in short
ex. Cybertron Voice Commander Hybrid 2.0:CVC_Hybrid_2.0
Name:Link. just an idea for setting it up.

Okay sorry such a seemingly simple question has to be asked when there's hundred of threads all about this phone. I've had it for a year and a half now, and I've loved it without any mods (cause I didnt know there were any for free), but now its slooooowwww.
Gets frozen on any MMS, keys stop responding often, free mem is constantly below 1mb, cant delete SMS because as soon as I restart the phone, they're back.
SO, essentially, I see there's a TON of awesome stuff to upgrade too. I really cant believe Ive been so oblivious heh. Where do I start. I want one of these ROMs. One where I can backup all texts, then delete a year and a half worth. One where the interface is obviously different. One where all my shh doesn't constantly freeze If there's a "Start fresh" thread on here, I missed it. I'm hoping I can either be told, or directed to where I can get a step by step on upgrading the phone. Unlocking (if necessary), installing, etc.. I have WM6, nothing upgraded at all. I want all the junk off this phone. If I can get a start on what to do, I'm sure I can go from there with configuring.
I dont want to buy a new PDA since Im having a baby, so any help at this point is going to be awesome. Thanks!
plzzzzzzzzzzzz, if theres a thread im missing that can start my getting 6.1 and how, id love to find it and read for myself
you have some reading and searching to do regarding the backing up of texts and all that stuff...it can be done and the answers are somewhere on this forum. you just need to use search to find it.
as far as starting over...you sound new to this so until you read all the stickies at the top of this forum...id go with option 2
FIRST THINGS FIRST. SINCE APPARENTLY YOU MISSED EVERY POST (ALL THE ONES LABELED STICKY) ON THE FIRST PAGE. READ THIS BEFORE GOING FURTHER SO YOU DONT HURT YOUR PHONE OR YOURSELF.
option 1. - Upgrade the rom to one of the 6.1 versions. you can find them with detailed instructions in the stickies. these roms are flat out better than the windows mobile 5 or 6 that you are most likely running. but please read about them and their installation before attempting the upgrade. also read ALL of the stickies to avoid us ganging up on you and and beating you like a hobo for asking "Why am I getting Error: 270".
option 2. - just hit the clear storage button (start > accesories > clear storage) and it will wipe out anything you have saved or installed to the phone and it will be just like when you took it out of the box. this will get rid of your memory issue.
as far as low memory....do you have a ton of stuff installed? did you save every text over the last year and a half?
edit: i cant belive im doing this...but here are some places to start.
Kavanas 6.1 ROM
Rickwyatts version of Kavanas 6.1 ROM
Here is for when you want to come on here and post "ERROR 270! HELP!!!"
Then when you get past that you will come on here and go "MY KEYBOARD IS ALL MESSED UP". for that you are gonna wanna click here --> Keyboard Fix
Once you get passed there... you will definitely come back to say "hey guys! great rom! but i cant send a text, mms or get to the net! zomg my life suck!!!!" click here when that happens and read what it says in green.
i cant belive i just took away all your fun in searching...you musta caught me on a good night...
without beartard here im getting weak!
by the way..all those links i posted ARE THE FIRST THINGS AT THE TOP OF THIS FORUM. READ ALL THE POSTS THAT SAY "STICKY" NEXT TO THEM

how could you possibly miss every post on the first page of this forum?
between the time of your first post and second post you could have found all those stickies and had the phone upgraded....did you really try hard to find the answers? c'mon you can tell me...im not gonna get mad..i already gave the answers to ya.
btw...im not trying to belittle you..think of it as a hazing. a lot of people have put work into making that Excalibur Wiki and the mods have done a great job of making the most common issues STICKIES. when people come on after joining a day ago and have 2 post to their name after owning the phone for a year and a half....then ask many things, all of which have been answered many many dozens of times... it just annoys me. mods spend time to make the stickies of the important things...and people like you dont even bother looking. you spent 2 hours waiting for someone to guide you...when you could have read everything in that time...anyways..im not bashing...just sayin in the future, do some reading or use the search button that i linked above before making a new post like this and looking (to the normal lurkers) silly. anyways. goodluck

Exactly what I was thinking, as I was reading this thread I was thinking to myself that this should be a "sticky" itself for all the newbies...
I second you on the sticky. It can also be posted on the wiki, I mean I went there to learn how to upgrade my phone, more people should.

i am sorry guys I looked and looked I didnt see anything. I will look again.
Calm down If you spent as much time helping rather then criticizing you might have a much fuller life
what does that even mean
If you would have actually searched instead of just saying you did, you would see there is multiple threads on the same page as this thread you posted covering the information you seek, I'm just trying to save you from getting flamed from people a lot worse then me here but do what you want...
Go to the htc evo question and answer section and one of the thread titles is how to unroot to stock. There it will help you find the information your looking for. Just be careful where you post. Most won't be as nice as others just because we have rules that we follow. Good luck

I agree..... +1
zzz... being in the many forums I have been, people saying to search without even giving an answer are not adding to the forum at all.
Anyway, I unrooted before I did the OTA update... basically, you have to download the latest OTA RUU file.
The RUU file is an executible.
You run the RUU file while your phone is plugged in.
And it should restore everything to factory settings with the OTA update.
Here's a list of RUU's.
http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Supersonic/
Obviously, choose the last one, as it is the latest.
Im definetly not one to flame usually, you guys can stop crying now. Im just stating the obvious... if its something hard to find, i will always post a link... you can check my other posts but this is blatantly obvious so its well deserved. A little constructive criticism is how everybody learns, its most likely how you guys even learned.

I did not know there were so many mods on this site. Weird.
As many of you may have heard, we underwent routine maintenance on our Database Server last night (9/25). Upon rebooting the Database Server, it refused to boot and all indications are that the RAID 10 (what is RAID? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID) array failed.
We have restored the Forums from a 24 hour old backup. We know this is not ideal, but at this point, the chances of recovering the failed array are slim.
We sincerely apologize for this.
Technical Info:
This maintenance was intended to boost the redundancy of our database setup and "lightening struck".
The maintenance was to update the OS and make a configuration change to allow us to introduce a slave DB server which would replicate all data on the primary DB server. We are currently running off this intended "slave server" as a master.
ouch how does Raid 10 fail!? hope all is well!
At least your back!
Hoorah for back ups!

Most likely not, except for Google's cache that stores some of the sites stuff
Could I please request that this information is posted across all the forums ? It certainly confused me as to where my recent posts etc had gone.
God damn!!!
I had some brilliant posts about statistics on overclocking HD2 and now those posts all gone
Thanks svetius, I was about to post an annoucement on hero and desire, but you beat me...
Sorry to hear about this. Time to action the RPs again, cap'ntrek
Now this isn't the greatest way to start a day
I did notice the downtime messages, which you guys kept refreshing with status updates, and noticed the forums return. It's a shame you guys had to use a 24 hrs old backup but hey things are up and running again.
I wouldn't know what to do without my favourite forum.
Besides the set back on posts i want to say GREAT JOB guys for getting things up again, and a very big THANK YOU for keeping us posted during the process.

Hi mate, there's a global announcement above every forum, but perhaps mike or svetius could add a new notice in place of the announcement, as it might be easier to see (since there are no notices in normal circumstances)

Watch...
Read - Why you get short/one word answers! (The Long Answer)
Been through all that stuff already...
As I have said before... why go to all the bother of posting the same stuff again and again?
I have spent the last 3 weeks looking around from site to site picking up bits here and there then eventually back to where I have started... albeit a little bit wiser...
I'm obviously missing something here...
Replying with this is as bad as spam.!... I have seen it on umpteen posts, over and over again, like a broken record.
If I had spent more time on the zx spectrum and the bbc which we had in 5th year before i left school I would not need to come on to this site..ha ha. but as we were not as lucky as you lot help is something that is greatly appreciated!
Rather than gloating how good I was, I would be coming on here to help rather than to belittle... otherwise what is the point of being a senior member with all this knowledge.
But this is something that comes with age... As we get older we realise....
Some day you will look back at yourself and think to yourself.
You will remember this post or some other that someone will surely post when frustrated with replys like this.
Read why you get short answers, because your lengthy reply clearly shows you haven't, and give the video another watch too, then you might understand why your thread about an existing thread is highly annoying.

Quite a few take the hint and grasp the point of XDA, then you get People like yourself who don't, and if you can't follow a simple tutorial that even has pictures, then you might as well give up.

As you can clearly see I've had quite a few.
Now you see how short a life you have had, when you have to use other peoples words...
And as for grasping things...The point...
Follow a simple thing and get so far and thats it..
Point.. We are here to learn, not just to have a phone... better than everyone else!!!
I, believe it or not am trying to learn but that is why we ask questions, albeit, stupid ones to you lot in the know!
Even the best of us will have to eventually ask a stupid question... It comes to us all... you will remember this!
You are so much in the know, then answer the question that I started with...
As most of the people that get through this initial test seem to be more helpful..
Maybe one day I will be able to help someone new as there will always be
And be a bit more constructive.
Try putting the same energy in to re reading the guide as you do with these argumentative posts and you might get somewhere.

Looking at these posts I can see and have learnt quite a lot actually...
It dosent take a lot to work out that if one neewbe gives you 10 thanks, as I have, for thinking and being polite that somebody actually replied,
do a bit of multiplication and you soon realise... 900 thanks doesnt actually say a lot....
especially if what you are sending people work done by somebody else....
I, after 3 weeks could go from page to page looking for newbees and feed them this stuff... the same stuff over and over again.
Since all you are doing is this, can, as I see, you never seem to answer any questions directly.
Which to me implys that you are no better than us newbees really.... unless you can prove otherwise... but I very much doubt.
