How to I check what version ROM I am using? - HTC Excalibur

About 8-9 months ago I installed Kavanas 6.1 ROM. I wanted to see if there was an update when I realized I didn't know how to check what version of his 6.1 ROM I was using!
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Thanks,
Tony

What is the latest rom for the 8525?

I have the 8525 and am currently running WM6 CE OS 5.2.1437 (Build 17944.0.3.1). It runs terribly and I bet I have to soft reset my phone about 3 times a day. Is this the latest one or is there something newer? I'm so confused! Thanks!

Unfortunately I have searched and I am still confused. Can anyone point me to the thread which has the latest rom on it? Thanks!
Currently the latest build from AT&T is 3.62 and the radio version is 1.54.07.
Here is the thread you might want to start looking at.

There are plenty of other ROM's out there that I suggest you try. Have fun flashing.
If you do decide to install this ROM make sure you downlowd the PTT_fix.cab for this ROM then you should be good to go.
Hope this helps,
Aaron
I will be a bit more helpful try this

you also have to remember that since this is a CLEAN install you are naturally going to have more free storage and more free memory. Unless you don't install ANYTHING on your phone this is going to deteriorate over time.
Can i get a copy of the OM...i like collecting them
BTW, y would you downgrade?
If anything upgrade to 6.1
so you would recommend using wm6.1 kavanas v18 ok ill check it out and ill give wm6 offical version a try again and btw yes i can give you that rom what is the best way to send it to you??

If you decide to upgrade. You need to upgrade to 6 then 6.1, or you will have issues. Remember baby steps
upload it somewhere. www.mediafire.com (no need for an account)

I would recommend kavana's ROM only if you plan on using the phone as more than just a phone. If all you do is make and receive calls, then any ROM will suit you. But, if you like flare, and additional functionality as well as speed, then yes the kavana 6.1 ROM is the best i've seen so far. And i have tried the Wm5 t-mo Wm6 t-mo the HTC 1.33 brightpoint ROM and kavana's ROM and kavana's is the best for an "everything" ROM

Did this really need a thread of its own???
you can ask the Chef himself here:

First, sorry to Detroit Doug for continuing this thread!!
Is this your first custom ROM flash??
Which latest version are you refering to, final or beta??
If you had a previous ROM, like 1.27 did Tom Tom 7 work with that?
If you read through the nice short M2d thread from herg in dev&hacking you'll find this issue with some versions of M2d. Because 1.28 has a different version of M2d than 1.27 I'm trying to figure out if that may be the case.
Or.....as DD says ask the chef!!! If he doesn't answer right away it's because he's busy cooking!!
hey jmitr
Yes my first custom flash!
I installed his beta 2 version which is 1.27.
When TomTom worked before it was the latest Bell Rom.
Thanks for the response....any info would be appreciated!
I have TomTom6, it has never stopped working for me.
I will research TT7 probs and get back to you, unless nfsfan comes up with an answer first.

No idea, I use IGO8. Never used TomTom.
Well, TomTom 6 seems to work in all the ROMs.
I googled and wiki'd TT7. I couldn't really find anything that might explain your problem.
My TT is on the storage card, I always remove my card during a flash. After flashing I put the card back in and TT installs automatically. It's never failed.
I suggest a hard rest then try again. If that doesn't work try reflashing to a final ROM and see if it's the beta.
I've got a similar problem, my IGO8 worked fine under 1.27 and now with 1.28 it installs just fine but will not open! what could be wrong?
