I have a Sprint Vogue Flashed to Metro Pcs i want to upgrade to WM6.5
i was looking into NFSFAN's new rom but wanted to know if any other Metro member is using this or any other WM6.5 rom
thanks in advance
Yeah man its just a generic carrier ROM. I have a Sprint touch on my nTelos network here in Virginny and it works like a champ. Is your data working? What radio do you have?

i haven't tried any WM 6.5 rom yet, but will try NFSFAN's WM6.5 V6.R2 ROM
please let me know how that goes... right now im just using spb mobile shell 3.0
NFSFANs ROM or ANY generic WinMO 6.5 ROM can work with metro PCS - just put the DCD MetroPCS Carrier Cab on your SD card prior to flashing and once flashed IF you have problems connecting, run the DCD MetroPCS carrier cab and it will install and provision your phone for the provider

read this and goto the link given in that post I believe MetroPCS utilizes another carrier so you can use one of the ones there that matches on your phone
Most the time though NFSFANs ROM works right out the flash, but in case there are the cabs, I just got home and cant remember whom MetroPCS emulates
so if someone remembers before I get the chance to look it up please post it (thanks)

Here are the complete details on a MetroPCS Carrier Cab -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...18&postcount=3
Is where I got the info on MetroPCS cab, the cabs are for a mogul but shouldnt matter that much, IF you dont have access/internet then you may want to try these
i finally decided i just want all this sprint stuff on the phone gone .. and i'm going to use spb mobile shell 3.0 and S2U2 and call it a day
look at part 2 of my nfsfan faq in my signature.
I have all carrier cabs (working on getting every mms cab too),
but I have both the carrier and mms cab for you in my faq now!!
mobile shell 3.0 if sweet and it doesnt slow the vogue down at all and is highly customizable maximus_pr pm me if your interested
s2U2 has been reported to be kinda buggy with windows mobile 6.5 if it works at all.
I cannot confirm nor deny as this is only what other have posted at a few threads on ppcgeeks, but I haven't seen anything here but then again I didn't search for it.
wm6.5 ver7 working just great
I have the above rom working perfec, gps,mms and all.
thats is cool codybear i will try it later im not to comfortable with flashing roms just yet but that you for the work you have put into this
thanks for the info
NFSFANS Roms
I have tried the NSFANS rom for a Vogue and it seemed the metro cabs did not help much. in the end the best way to set it up was to flash the custom ROM and then put the wap and mms settings manually. of course you have to download Arcsoft MMS because most of the roms dont come with an mms composer. Great ROM's though. pretty stable...

Hello all,
Just got my 8525 today (coming from an 8125), and did the full unlock. Also flashed to the latest official HTC wm6 rom, however, it's lacking customizations and programs found in 'custom roms.'
Just curious, anyone with T-Mobile, which ROM/radio combination did you find to behave best for you? Of course missed calls and stability are primary concerns.
Thanks much!
not sure where your located since U have no signature? If in USA, then see my sig for rom and radio that works for me. But many other combinationtions are also possible in the states.
Since he came from a 8125 and switched to a 8525 I asume he is from the US!
The HTC WM6 is a pretty nead rom with acceptable RADIO. The only one T-Mobile customizations you still need are GPRS and MMS settings! Those you can find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311446
If you want to have T-Mobile Splash Screens: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336889
If you want your ROM entirely T-Mobile branded: download the ROM from the UK site, then remove GPRS settings and replace them with US settings from the link above! The TMO_UK ROM can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337163
Hope that helps!
awesome info guys thanks! And yes, I'm in the US
I was just wondering what were the best custom ROM/radio combos for the US T-mobile users...I'm coming from an 8125 and it looks like the touchflow roms aren't quite mainstream with these yet and are still in their alpha phases
How did you fully unlock 8525 to other networks? I want to get mine working with T Mobile too. Thanks =)

Someone know the HTC_S620_WWE_BT_3.66.424.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe rom? I found it in the link "http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mgldgtxc3gq". Where is the rom came from? Thanks!
It's in Mikey's folder, so it's def not new. Look at the added date 4/17 and the last 6 digits, those are the radio, it's older than the current.
Mikey, care to chime in and tell us what that is.
I guess that's the BT's branded ROM (british telecom company).
I'm almost sure it's wm 6.0, so, not newer than kavana/ricky's wm 6.1 ROMs...
Poke around their website to be sure, if you will, I remember there was a manual for their HTC S620 device somewhere (maybe the users support forum...): http://www.bt.com/
Good luck.
Cheers.
WM6 Rom with very little branding boot and shutdown logo only, with Internet Calling. Not very different from the Brightpoint Rom although I don't remember seeing the "Message Options" app before. If the Brightpoint Rom is the base for Kavana WM6.1 does it include the VOIP? If not maybe WM6.1 should be rebuilt with this as the base.

After prodding HTC I was told my Unlocked US Version Touch Diamond had a Brightpoint Rom. That was the reason they gave for not supporting a Rom upgrade for my unlocked phone. They never gave me an answer to how I could get in touch with Brightpoint to see if they in fact have a new ROM update.
Does anyone here know how to get in touch with them, or even better is there a ROM upgrade that XDA has cooked up for this version? How do I get it if it's available?

NOTE (Jan. 11/09): To make Rogers Name Display work on other ROMs, you need to cook the attached rilphone.dll into the ROM. Also, you have to subscribe to Name Display on the Rogers network in Canada (of course).

hello there, can you please upload the ril.dll file as well as any other ril**.dll in your /windows. i'm trying to get the name display working on my diamond.

No problem, it's a relevant point because it's Rogers and only they support Name Display.
I think Trueg can help you out with that, he figured it out for the Elfins.
Actually try this:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"Dll"="rilphone.dll"
"Prefix"="RIL"
"Order"=dword:10
"Index"=dword:1
And then copy rilphone.dll
no luck there. still unknown

Hi Blazeitup123
Could you summarize what you did and name display works
Did you use the new rilphone.dll from dsixda or the one your diamond had?
Actually it will be good if someone know how to create a cab
with the registry settings and the dlls
Thanks

i copied the dll from internal storage to /windows with total commander. next looked in the reg, all entries existed and the only one i have to change was "Order"=dword from 16 to 10. soft reset, and it worked! simple
at first i was like o_0 then i was like ^_^ then i **** my pants! lol
i'm soo happy! i have had this phone since May and now its finally fully functional.
I dont know how name display is working in your diamond
but when I copied the dll to my windows folder i lost the radio
I could not start the gsm radio not even when i replaced the original
dll file I had.
Bottom line I had to reinstall a new ROM
By the way I use Dutty's ROMs
It happens twice to me

You will likely have to use the itsutils tools (I used "pdocread" when I extracted it successfully for the Rogers Touch).
Roger HTC Diamond
To the author. Did you mange to unlock and put a cooked ROM on your Rogers HTC Diamond? Another thing is there a way to manually disable 3G connection on a Rogers HTC Diamond phone. I just got my Rogers branded Diamond and sold my EU/Asia Diam. In my opinion the EU/Asia is better than the US/Can version. The EU/Asia ver runs smoother and GPS works really well. With my new Rogers Diam, it's a little bit sluggish and acquiring GPS signal takes like 5mins. I'm thinking maybe debranding the phone and flashing a cooked ROM will fix it.
Thanks.

Yes, of course I can put a cooked ROM, because I restored this backup successfully, which itself is a cooked ROM because it is unsigned (and I also had to "cook" it with the SYS/OEM/XIP components). Dutty's ROM works as well.
Regarding the 3G connection thing, there is a thread on howardforums.com where trueg mentioned how to do it.
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1448329
I'm not sure about your GPS issue; it's probably your own issue. It only took me less than 30 seconds to get my first working signal.. which is just as good as my GlobalSat bluetooth one.

Are you on the Rogers network?
Hey there mate,
Rebuilded the rogers rom for myself as well and compared it to what you had built as well. I don't see ril*.dll in the OEM folder (searched all the dll's and did not see any ril*) [in mine or yours]
Is it really suppose to be there or ... i'm not doing something right?

I upgraded to 6.5, internet works, other data services work just fine, but my text messaging doesnt work at all. I installed the dcd sprint carrier cab thinking that it would fix it, but no luck. Any help with this would be great!
i have the same exact issue after installing 6.5 but nobody seems to want to help at all.
That's because the question has been answered in our FAQ and plenty of times in the ROM's thread.
Hard reset, and install the carrier cab again.

i did hard reset 2 times and installed my dcd cab for sprint, it doesn't fix anything. it must be a bug with 6.5 roms. i have since installed palm threaded messaging and all is fine now.
could i please get a link to that?!?!?!?!?!
heres the cab install.
looking to upgrade to 6.5 have downloaded 6.5 rom and dcd carrier for telus. i guess i install the rom 1st than the carrier? my radio is 3.41 do i need to upgrade it first? if so where can i get it?
You need to unlock your phone first and then you can install the 6.5 rom.
Though if you don't have an extended battery you'll end up with your phone dying a lot faster. I have an extended battery and it's all but dead after a day of normal use.
phone already unlocked. do i run dcd carrier after rom
try the rom out and see if you can send and receive calls, text messages, data work, and gps. If these don't work without the carrier cab then Install it. or you can just install it for the heck of it.
what about the radio currently 3.41.00 do i need higher??

No, you do not. Any 3.xxx radio is GPS capable, and required for wm 6.1 and up.
