Sjeesh man, life is too short to be vague. :| What is it you wish to accomplish?
(Since you posted in 'Unlocking it', it may well be that you wish to use this phone on some other provider than the one that is providing you with the phone, and that you suspect that the phone has a SIMlock set....)

XDA-Developers
i've got an MDA Vario II and just updated it to the original WM6 ROM which was available from T-Mobile, but I am very disappointed - in some things:
- The Power Consumption has increased
- Some Programs are even not in this ROM like the "Notes" Application and the Calculator
- The Performance is not as good as under WM5
- The WMP cannot play MP4 Files
...There are some more issues but I don't want to list them all, because this is not my core question
What I want to know is if it is possible to install the O2 Rom or if you can recommend me another ROM, it is no problem if it is in english, it just should be having all the WM Standard Programs and it should have more performance.
Can I get the original HTC ROM somewhere ?

WM6 Vanilla question

I just upgraded to WM6 Vanilla on my 8525. I now no longer have access to the internet through the 3G data service.. Also the keyboard is messed up.. I could careless for WM5.. this phone was seriously pissin me off with WM5.. it was so slow and froze up all the time.. etc. Things seem a lot faster with the WM6 Vanilla.. but I'd like to have more features..
I'd appreciate some help.. I read and searched as much as possible but most of these threads have 30+ pages
PS. Wireless doesn't work either.. the Wifi won't turn on.
I really want to keep WM6.. I just want the full features of WM5 along with it..

Perhaps you should do some more reading then. If you look at the thread with a title something like XDA Live issues (its in consolidated sticky), you'll find a fix for your keyboard - I'm assuming you're running an 8525 or whatever you US guys call it?
I don't know why you flashed Vanilla as well, you'd have been better off with XDA Live.
Your internet problem is due to not having the settings for your provider now. You might find the answer in a thread, there might be an ExtROM cab you can run to get the settings, or you might have to find them on the providers website and manually enter them.

I would like to keep PTT.

I just tried XDA... not appealing to me. I like Vanilla.. just not so damn plain.. wish it was full feature.

dont you get it...its not meant to have any extras just plain "vanilla", if you want extras just add them as most stuff wotrks if you install it, ive got vannila with only what i need, tomtom and my provider settings, and works perfect for me

I'm an F'n newb to this stuff.. so no I don't get it .. lol.
I just put vanilla back on...
So now the question is, how do I find out what cingulars 3G (EDGE) information is so I can get that working again.. and also how can I get Wifi working.. currently it will not even enable(turn on) the wifi...

see https://www.cingular.com/support/deviceConfig.do?content=KB71396.html to set up GPRS/UMTS on your device

Thank you very much skyyboy, that did the trick!
Now can someone help me fix the keyboard? When I go to do @ I get a question mark.. I have to use the key that should be ! to get the @
Thanks

Is there any way to allow the phone to have more than one data connection open at once?

Sorry to tell you, neither WM6 Rom supports PTT.
Actually Vanilla can't support it (need to swap some important system files and it can't be done with a cab file) whereas there are a couple of people working on getting it to work with WMXL (WM XDA Live)...

Seriously, it is rude to start a new thread for our own personal questions which have been asked and answered time and again. I am cloing this thread. read the Wm6 threads for your answers.

Im newish, Be Gentle

Let me start by saying that Ive been creeping in the corners of these forums for a bit, and frankly, you guys are AMAZING. I purchased an ATT 8525 in June, and Id be lying if I didn't say reading these forums has solved about 90% of my issues. Needless to say, now I'm starting to feel brave... Ive read the wiki, Ive tried googling, I need some help.
(Please, if this IS somewhere, just point me in that direction, Ive gotten by OK with no direct interference)
Im starting to feel brave enough to tweak registry and change ROMS, even tried a couple here on the forums... but I don't seem to have any luck finding what Im looking for, and I was COMPLETELY puzzled by self cooking.
Heres what I'm looking for...
BAREBONES WM6. (I don't want ANY of what ships with WM6 besides the phone functions (Camera, Calender, Text, Phone, WiFi) Even the default sounds, I want all gone, I realize I can delete afterwards if needed. I used XDASUPPER_CLEAN3 And I can say its VERY close, It just did a few things Im not so happy with, primarily added a Video call button to my dialer (Which I wont use) and showed me connect to the UMTS ATT&T Network or showing No connection to network, but still dialing out. I live in Vegas, 3G is everywhere, what SHOULD I be connecting to? And it added an awkward white triangle to the very top of my today screen,
I also don't use the outlook features of the phone, So I want to remove all traces of EMAIL From the device. (Not sure if a reg tweak exists for this or what?)
The long and short of it. I use my ATT 8525 for
Text/Picture Messaging
Picture Taking
Scheduling with Calender
Contact Storage
Beaming Data
Silly Games
And a phone (w blue tooth headset)
Off the top of my head at 230 that sounds like everything, anything on the device that isn't related to those is wasted space.... Please any advice or help would be GREATLY appreciated.

ROM's
Check out K's Rom..I use it and it's pretty sick. Read the description and see if it suits your needs. Some functions have been disabled and others tweaked..to include Expanded memory. It also includes some helpful tools.
Also, the use of Ftouchflo is highly recommended.
Hope this helps some.
Cheers.....

Have to agree with this one. The fastest WM6 ROM around at the moment.

I use Pandora's Build it YOUR way setup. I can customize what is installed and what's not.

MUCH Thanks
Alright folks, it looks like you've hit me with some great suggestions! Im currently using Pandora Naked. Just a few things, I couldnt get Pandora 6 to flash at all, but Pandora 5 went on without a hitch. I cant seem to figure out WHAT is different about the installation. But I dont see any notes on what features may or may not be different between the two roms themselves...
Also, I ran into a situation where I could not for the life of me get Pandora YOUR way to cooperate on installing the rom, I realize Naked + and add ons I want is an alternative, but still Unsure on what causes the installation to give me a "Corrupt Image" error.
One other SMALL item, is that strange white triangle at the top of the today screen, I cant figure out what it is, where it came from, or how to get rid of it. Beyond that, all is fantastic! Thanks again everyone!

that strange white triangle is the roaming indicator. Mostly it indicates you are off your home network.
Sometimes you will get it if you flash a rom from a network thats not your own.
I have seen a few other posts about people with it stuck on. Try doing a search

Excalibur registry,battery and omap info.

Hey I am new to the forum I learn quickly though I recently just got into windows mobile and so far am loving it I am running a 3VO series ROM from ookba and its great!

OMAP!

No the drivers are in the ROM, if you have an issue then the best place to post is in the thread of ROM, hard-reset before hand an atleat try and flash again as there are such things as bad flash's.
Also good to read fix's
"3VO 2.50 WiFi Patch.cab" is only for those experiencing trouble with WiFi powering on. No need to run patch if you are not experiencing WiFi power on issues.

welcome aboard. anything and everything you wanna know about the dash is here on xda. plus this site is filled with highly knowledgable and helpful ppl.

install it from your phone

it won't do it:-( have installed from my storage card and it cam upwith a load of text, i take it, it installed, have paired my phone with the other phone, can send stuff, just can't recieve, the ftp tab or whatever suppose to be there (only going by what other posters elsewhere have put) isn't there. Imust be thick or something
i have paired the devices
so in devices the item is there, in mode i have both check boxes checked, compports(unsure about this, do i need to do anything in there?)
oops i am now experiencing hang ups on the phone,taking ages to do things...Hmmmm
not going to do a reinstall just though.
are there anymore fixes i can try for this, i have saved this one just in case though, xx

make sure 'beam' is on in comm manager and set to receive all in connections.

been having seveve problems since ilast posted tried to reinstall from scratch the copy of 6.1 i have and the screen was going white, so i have updated to 6.5 again, although i hate it, it's a shame there isn't an updated stock file of 6.5 with the look of 6.1 because that would be ace. Love the new connection in 6.5 on/off thing is i am having the same issues with bluetooth with 6.5, it must be my phone??? don't know where to turn now

link won't work for me:-( i have reinstalled 6.1, but it hasn't fixed it. But it maybe useful to know that if you do try a clean install of something, inother words the same on top of them same rom,and it hangs then it maybe worth installing a different one and then going back to the one you want, it worked for me anyway...lol

flash the at&t one before you flash the rom of your choice. It is essential to getting your phone to work well with 6.1 and 6.5 roms and eliminating tons of problems.
also flash using the sd method if possible

no offence but that rom is awful, it slows my phone, the backgrounds are rubbish in it, the different keypads are good though, but i only wanted the normal one. i don't wish to be scathing about it, but it just is not my taste. The bluetooth still doesn't work, no tab, people keep going on about another tab i should have at the bottom of the bluetooth, can someone clarify this??
i must say though., seeing the WIFI and Bluetooth on the screen is brilliant. The today screen is extremely basic. why isn't the start screen editable?? i'd like messages, clock, file explorer, and a few other things but there you go.
i am now searching for another 6.1 to rival the first one i found or a 6.5 that isn't to overthe top

Actually flashing with the microsd card is the preferred way because it's faster, more reliable and doesn't require you be connected to a PC. I think you should read the wiki a little (not meant to be condescending). If you want nice 6.5 roms that don't slow you down then try the lite versions. You will find them all with links to the at&t base rom.

finally tonight i have found what i have been searching for
the shipped 02 software
i am a complete newbie, and i'm totally wondering why no one pointed me at this when i first came to this forum, it has even replaced that stupid Dark vision HTC splash screen...rubbish!!!
It has fixed my bluetooth issue straight away, i know you like pushng the boundaries on here but christ i have spent 5 days searching for this!!
hopefully any newbies will find this post,it for a XDA Trion or Hermes 100 as i later found out and is the software that rolls out from 02
oh god finally.

Hi Essexgirl. Can you please tell me, where did you find the shipped 02 software? Do you have a link for it and what version of Windows Mobile is it?
