A coworker and I just got 8525's about 1 month ago....we finally complained loud enough to our AT&T rep and he is going to wave the 30 day return policy and take our old 8525's back and give us the new 8925's. Hopefully it'll be a good upgrade for us.
My main problem is we've already up graded to WM6. Should I "downgrade" to WM5 since that's what they came with our not worry about. I have not told him yet that we upgraded our phones but I also don't want to upset him since he is offering good customer support/service.
thanks,
Paul

True but I'd suggest installing the Official AT&T ROM....
very good point.. i overlooked that. on a sad note, this may be my last post in the hermes forum due to the fact that my baby boy tilt will be arriving tuesday or wensday!
(got it thru XBM ..they are now exchanging 8525s for 8925s if u've had 3 or more 8525s)
XBM? Gotta link?
XBM = Xchange By Mail, it is the warranty replacement department.
yes, and after 3 8525s u have the option to change to a different make a model. i pushed for the tilt saying its the most compitable with the 8525 they offered a 750v but i kept insisting on a tilt so they finally gave in.
great job on achieving the update! I bought my imate jasjam overseas so no update for me
i'm considering trading it in on importgsm.com but i'm not sure if i'll get more for it from them or wait till i head back to the middle east in december.
enjoy the kaiser! i can't wait till i get my hands on one for myself!
Thanks folks....Since I did not backup this unit before installing WM6, can anyone tell me which ROM I need to install so it'll be "factory fresh".
thanks again!

I think there is one still out there on the HTC website. I recently ordered a Tilt as well and should be coming in Wednesday.
Here is the link to download the Official WM6 download. I can't see why ATT would have problem exchanging it if it had the official WM6 release.
http://download.america.htc.com/RUU...502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe
It's not the official WM6 release. It's some cooked one that I found on this site...Last night I dl'ed RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2_1_.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108_Ship
I'm hoping this is the right one. I'm kind of a newbie and I really don't want to brick this 8525 before I send it back.
8925 Exchange is real!
I co-sign Jakeypoo 100 percent! Today I called AT&T and complained about my 8525. Well, it's been my 3rd warranty exchange device and all I told the lady is that the problem I've been having is a chronic issue and that I would like a difference device. She put me on hold, then got back on the line and offered a Motorola Q, The Treo 750, and the 8925 as options. Of course I chose the 8925. They are sending me a brand new full kit too! To think I almost bought one three week ago too? The new device should be here on Friday so advice to you guys, if you've had a couple warranty replacements, call in and get your new Tilts!
Ok no my Q is After we make a Sprite Back Up
Wht if i Loose my Phone, But have saved the Sprite backed up from my Storage card on my PC in a Folder
So if damged or Lose my phone, wil Buy a NEW
If i put my Sprite Backup in a NEW Tilt phone & restore it,

hi guys, right i dumped my blackberry storm 2 and went for a HTC desire, because to be honest i got tired of waiting around for blackberry to update there dated OS, i allways got the latest Beta OSs etc, but it wasnt really going anywhere, was it the right choice?? i suppose time will tell.. but am looking forward to getting bang into this device to see what i can get out of it.
anyway wanted to just say hello!
Cheers, Rams
Hi All,
I've found a supplier of desires here in UAE.
New boxed, from Hong Kong.
But, with v 2.1. (WWE).
Shop say they can upgrade to 2.2 fro me, but I'll have to buy it first as they will have to open the box ......
Why should a new phone come with the old 2.1?
They say they have a high turnover and it is not old stock.
Any pointers / advice very welcome.
I don't see the problem.
Just get it and upgrade bud.
OK, I just don't want to buy something second rate; I assumed that new phones would already have 2.2 installed.
Shop say they will upgrade to 2.2 before I pay!
Happier now, thanks.
I got my Desire nearly 2 weeks ago and it was shipped with Froyo 2.2.
Thanks - back to the shop then ...
They may have had it in stock for ages - if anything it's better to get an old one as you'll likely get an AMOLED screen...I really don't seen the issue here as you can just do the update yourself once you get it
Thanks for the replies - I just needed some encouragement to get it here in Dubai rather than wait till Xmas in the UK ...
First if like to say hi to everyone. Just got my HTC 10 today and came from an LG G5 where the forums were very quiet, I'm hoping the HTC 10 is more active.
I haven't owned an HTC since the M8 when it was released and I forgot how much ott the vibration use on them. Any way to dull it down across the board?
Already rooted and running Viper atm
Thanks guys
