we have the AT&T WM6 ROM's for the Kaiser... and we know all about it...
MOD - PLEASE DELETE THIS THREAD!! THis has nothing to do with WM6! @ the person who started this thread - stop posting information that number one - isnt true and number two - has nothing to do with the forum you're posting in.

Nope.
I'm closing the thread. The OP can PM me if he feels he has some real facts to post regarding the topic.
Sprint launched their version of the HTC Touch, also known as the HTC Vogue. This is a different phone than the HTC Elf.
Will Xda-developers start sub-forums for the Vogue soon?
Seconded!!!
Thirding this, a Vogue subforum would be pretty great. It's probably my next phone.
I just ordered the Sprint Tilt (aka HTC Vogue) yesterday and was thinking the same thing.
My Paypal dollars are ready to be donated if someone gets the gps unlocked

Fourth, holding my Touch right now, it's a beauty. I'll also be more than happy to donate and test anything that gets my gps unlocked.
I'm a happy Kaiser (well,Tilt...) user, but my girlfriend has a Vogue arriving tomorrow, so consider this her vote by proxy.
'me too'
-m
Vogue forum please!
I agree that there should be at least one seperate subforum for this. The device has some features and the looks of a gsm touch, but it's much different from an elf on the inside.
yes new forum for CDMA Touch please. it is a great phone i just switched from the p4000 and am not looking back.
Any love on this front?
Yes new Vogue forum please!!!!
Recent ruling.....could this help??
Yes please consider a new Vogue forum.
This was a result of a recent lawsuit.
Sprint said it will share the unlocking code with all current and former subscribers once their phones are deactivated and their bills are paid. The company also will add information about the locking software and how to obtain the unlocking codes in the list of terms and conditions of service given to new customers, and instruct its customer service representatives on how to connect a non-Sprint phone to the Sprint network.
I plan on getting the Vogue if it can be modified and have programs loaded into its rom. Otherwise I would just get the T Mobile wing. Any suggestions?
Any love on this?
Well, until XDA Developers does something about it, PPCgeeks.com has a pretty good forum
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=48
Even though it says it is for the HTC ELF, it is almost nothing but HTC Vogue/Sprint Touch talk. In fact, someone just posted a ROM unlocker and supposedly, there is going to be a custom ROM posted very soon.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=12255
I was just about to PM a moderator about this to.
Not only are the phones coming available.
Also some roms for these phones are popping up in the ELF threads.
I extracted some of these but there's big (Small actually, just the Pagepool and rom Size) differences and i foresee a lot of people trying to flash them anyway. Resulting in phones that run out of memory in no time.
And to be totally honoust i haven't seen a lot of Moderators popping up in the Elf threads to.
The Elf's grown up. It's getting pretty busy. Just now it's finishing second in Users viewing posts right now. After the Artemis, that has a lot more experienced users. And i won't see the steady band on elf thread jumping to a new Touch version anytime soon.

Not that I am completely in the know or anything, but I would figured that the Radio Rom would be different since the ELF is GSM and the Vogue is CDMA. Also, the chipsets are different. I wouldn't think that either phone's rom would run on the other.
Has there been any word on whether Schaps is close to releasing his ROM for the Hermes? Haven't heard anything in a long time. Thanks
dont wait... its a waste.. i dont think hes going to release it anytime soon... i think hes waiting for wm7 to come out and then to release it.. lol

TouchXperience project progress
Written by Julien Schapman
Saturday, 27 September 2008 07:32
To make you patient until the public release, I decided to give you regular news about TouchXperience project progress and to give you more details about some TouchXperience features. Don't hesitate to make suggestions in the dedicated forum.
The first public release will be (finally!) available in October (2008!), TouchXperience will be available for HTC TyTN, TyTN II, Touch Pro, Touch Diamond, and later Touch HD. Other devices may be supported in the future and non-HTC touch devices (such as Samsung Omnia/i900) are not excluded, but be aware that I need to invest in new devices to work on it, and developping for non-HTC devices may take longer because I use to develop on HTC hardware only.
Site has exceeded bandwidth... he didn't sneak a release out last night did he?
Lol it's might just be the case. Site has never been down since he took it online. I've been checking the release status frequently.

Following some site's the rom is now downloadable. But the site won't work because of the traffic. Also it's possible that some other company has bought the product from him... You never know.
So maybe it won't be downloadable at all. But ofcourse he won't sell it, will he?
Can't wait untill there is some download link available.
Ok taking this back, just read that he won't sell it. Since he said it himself. Hope there will soon be a new mirror. I really respect this

That last link is for a new item posted on 1st August
I'm sure if it was released he would have popped in to say so. Looks like something caused a traffic surge though, maybe he got slashdotted lol.
Hmm....
Yeah, that is pretty interesting... I guess we'll have to follow up over the weekend to see what the truth is!
Try clicking on the link in the Dutch forum, it sends you to the "Site has exceeded bandwidth" screen. Schaps may have released it but has been too busy to post it here. Could also just be a demo or test app...
Will keep trying and update later..
Unfortunately the recent release of the Android 1.0 source code (http://source.android.com/download) and the HTC ROMS that will surely follow may make this project moot.
Kaiser ROM Development
Hermes Android ROM Discussion
Especially considering that Windows Mobile 7 may not be out until 2010.
But so goes the software industry...
Not really as the developement of Android for the Hermes isn't exactly powering along and the general consensus is that it may not be possible to port Android to the Hermes. Something to do with the fact Hermes is a ARM4 processor and Android was made to work on ARM5.
Cheers...

i can't find anything that speaks for a download and the first comment from bing says there is no download so we have to wait until we don't need it anymore becuase we can controll our new high tech devices with our mind or so...
That may be true

But the Hermes doesn't have much real life left, in fact the Kaiser is getting a bit old, too. At least as far as mobile devices go.
The Kaiser is not even a year old. Hell AT&T does not even have a replacement yet for the tilt.

Hi guys...today google should release android 2.3 gingerbread..i don't know what's your feelings..but i'm so excited. Can't wait to see and try some porting. Within the last months we tried lots of awesome roms..and maybe we should say goodbye. I hope that the same developers start to create something new based on gingerbread. What do you think? and what are you waiting for?
personally i love sense based roms..so cant wait for one of it!
we have some stable roms before christmas?
Haven't they been releasing it for the past 4 days?

What do you guys think? will there be a new UI? Hopefully it looks like the Kite UI Although i have been searching around i have not found anything on the actual gingerbread release, yet
I think gingerbread is 3.0 not 2.3
Any word about the integration in Gingerbread of that fancy virtual keyboard Google bought a few weeks ago?

Gingerbread is likely just to be an iteration of the OS, Honeycomb or (3.0) is likely to be the reworked candidate... What they have probably done is set the base ready for UI rework which will be completed by the next release.. That's my thought anyway. So yea, expect changes, but only tweaks, just like we got in 2.2.
Either way, it'll be well worth the upgrade!
Moved to General as not development.
Post What Where:
General - general technical discussion items, news, anything else that does not fit into the other fora categories.
Q&A (Questions and Answers) - all questions, irrespective of type, get posted in here whether they be theme related, accessory related, technical, etc.
Accessories - any items to do with components and/or accessories relating to your device.
Rom Development - only meant for very advanced technical discussion directly related to ROM development activity and the delivery of actual ROMs and ROM components ONLY. Nothing else goes in here.
Themes & Apps - anything to do directly with the development of themes and/or applications. Nothing else goes in here.
we'll know by 11:10 pm
Supposedly, google will announce this today @ web2.0 summit.
It starts at 2:30 in San Francisco which which -8 from UK time, so 10:30PM here.
Eric Scmidt (googler) is the first speaker @ 2:35 pm local time, until 3:10.
so if he announces anything, we'll know by 11:10 UK time.

isn't there anyone on the forum, who's like an inside man and have all the inside info.. J/k keeping my fingers crossed.
The only way we'll see Gingerbread announced is if they're bundling integrated web services in a big way which would make sense what with facebook making some big pushes with single sign in and now their mail services.
But I doubt it, it's on the ticket as a "conversation" with Eric Schmidt, someone will probably ask him a question on it and that'll be about it.
But then again, he could also have a full plate of gingerbread cookies for the whole summit!!!
We had a feeling Eric Schmidt would be doing something surprising at the Web 2.0 summit, and the man didn't disappoint -- he just showed off the Nexus S, and revealed it has NFC features, a technology he thinks will eventually replace credit cards. Unfortunately, he also called it an "unannounced phone" from an "announced manufacturer," and the logo was taped over, so we're not any closer to a release date here.

I do not think it will be 3.0 but 2.3. And it is out on some development devices. Saw a graph showing the web statistics regarding Android and it showed all the versions including 2.2, 2.3 and 3.0, means that 3.0 is in an early development process. I cannot remember where i saw it.. sorry. [Update] I added the image I was talking about, it is from areamobile.de/news/16924-android-gingerbread-und-honeycomb-bereits-im-testbetrieb.
Another thing is that Alvaro Fuentes, member of the Open Handset Alliance, wrote in his twitter post:

Well we will keep on waiting. Although there is a wait time till HTC releases an OTA.
heh, guess he did announce it there. Sort of anyway.
Hi admins,
Ive been using the HTC Merge for over a month now, and the phone was released in the states a week or two ago. A bunch of us merge users have been hanging around in other device threads or general threads trying to make some noise and get this thing rooted. However, a separate forum and wiki entry would help to get things organized.
PS: Any devs interested in helping us get cyanogen working on this? Its quite similar to the G2/Desire Z/HTC EVO shift. A custom bootloader+recovery is all we need.

My wife got an Alltel HTC Merge the day before they were to be released. It's a great phone; just needs some love from XDA.
Forum for HTC Merge
Agreed--please create a dedicated forum for this device. It has been available with Alltel for a month now, and it will soon be released on other CDMA carriers. Since it's GSM-capable too, there's much interest in it in other parts of the world, too. And Alltel's selling it SIM-unlocked!
True, i have a US Cellular merge, and its sim unlocked too. So this phone could be big on the account of being a world phone. And yet it has no presence on the internet other than rumor posts from last year on tech blogs and the likes.
bring it on! we need perm root, roms, and kernels! Its on the verizon site now so hopefully it will be much more widespread very soon.
Get my HTC Merge/Lexikion this week in United Kingdom, London
DEVELOPMENT INSIGHT: Read post 8 & post 23 below link - "steviewevie" seems to be a Admin/moderator the the HTC Vision [Desire Z & G2].
The Merge ADR6325 falls under the Vision list apparently.

FYI, Stevie is not an Admin nor is he the mod of G2/DZ - that would be me. The Merge for the two devices was not only because they were in the Vision family, but rather because the shared the same specs and development is almost identical for both.
As far as the Wiki, Users are allowed to add into it, so why don't you try your luck at creating an entry?
We will only be adding devices if we see that they are necessary on the forum and either if a few thousand people want the device or there is existing development for it.
This is very much needed. I check this site all of the time looking to see if there are any Merge news about root and dev being done. I think now that Verizon is releasing the merge that there will be a big community. Hopefully some people that know more about developing than I do will work with the Merge. I have had mine over a month now and it is the best phone I have ever had.

What a load of crap!
From what I can see, this ALLTEL rom is only bespoke in the form that it has a few ALLTEL wallpapers and a bootscreen animation - other then that its all HTC Sence STOCK - so how the fuNk did they mash the GPS.
Very annoyed

GPS works on my Alltel Merge with only the GPS on and the wireless location service turned off.
It does, however, take quite a while to get a lock, especially with a cloudy sky.
GPS has never worked on my Alltel Merge. I love the phone but wish GPS worked and wish I could install custom roms.
I have been looking EVERYWHERE for HTC Merge rooting and themes and haven't found a thing. There definitely needs to be a dedicated forum on here.
We definitely do need a forum, and we also need to get these phones onto custom recovery so we can start making and flashing roms. We need these guys. Ive been trying to contact them, but cant find a contact vector, and dont have the time to dig in these days. Anyone else want to try? The more noise we make, the more chances we may have to get this done.
Looking forward to a Merge Thread too.
+1 more for a Merge forum. I just got the US Cellular version yesterday. Switched from WinMo TP2. Haven't found a decent forum yet. Got my fingers crossed.
I also have the USCC Merge...love the phone so far. Would love to see some custom roms and stuff for it!
I, too, am excited to see the HTC Merge rooted!! I have the USCC Merge and really really want to get it rooted so I can run a few specific ROMS. Great phone so far after about a week of having it (upgrade from a Blackberry Curve :0 ). Thanks XDA!
+1 more for merge development, great phone!
got my uscc merge few days ago and i love it! could be alot of potential if someone would just look into it. please please, and thanks!
It's already a great device, but it would be even better rooted. Thanks for your time.
