Do you have an M500 already or something else ?

Hello, ladies and gentlemen.
I will be relinquishing my i-mate JAM for an M500 in a few hours, so I'd like to take the opportunity to thank everyone here for a great time and experiencing hacking away at these HTC devices. Though we've accomplished much, it's a double-edged sword with HTC and their branding companies such as i-mate, Dopod, O2, etc. They give us enough leeway to make some really cool customizations, but they also have the attitude that 'if you want features you're missing in your current software, we'd rather you purchase new hardware (read: WM5).'
The Eten M500 seems to be a very formidable competitor with some serious technical support and definite upgrade path to WM5, so in the long run, this will likely outlast the JAM in most respects.
When I get my M500, I'll hope to find a way to get into the bootloader and make a dump of the unit and perhaps end up helping the community who's helped me and countless others with their HTC devices.

Thanks for you time here and at HOFO

it's sad to hear that you are leaving xda-developers...
Yet.. I wish you best luck with your new M500 :wink:
I hope we can get great info from you regarding the device... as always
thanks for all of your time
cheers

@BeyondtheTech
Has ETEN's build quality improved? Their first few attempts at PPCPE were not so good... maybe you can share your ETEN experience when you get your m500. Have fun with your new device!

ETEN :shock:

I was actually talking about the Orange M500, sorry if the conversation went awal..

Just to say a big thanks to mUnrus and the community!

Yes...a BIG thanks to all and aspecially guys like mUnrus who spend all their time coding and compiling the latest goodies for us geeks!
I own a Trinity myself (WM6-GPS by LVSW), bur yesterday my collegue's Wizard needed an upgrade. So i said to the poor guy: "Whoa! Let's hack the darn thing and get you WindowsMobile 6"...
After some well spent hours on the forum and the Wiki for the Wizard i was able to determine wether it was a G3 or G4 device he had, found out how to CID unlock this baby and ultimately we picked our choice from the plethora of nice WM6 ROM's that's out here... After 3 complete ROM flashes and the SIM and CID unlocking procdure, we've got a beautifull Wizard running WM6 by mUn (the NotTooSmart fixed version) fast and smoothly...
The Sticky posts and the Wiki were all so helpfull and crystalclear, that i didn't have to go and ask nOOb-questions anywhere... I'm not really a nOOb myself, cause i'm pretty used to flashing my own phones every now and then with the latest and greatest, but a Wizard was a completely new cup of tea for me (with the G3/G4 versions). So it proved to be a bit more work than just a single flash like my own phones, but with all the great tutorials i never went wrong on a single step of the whole procedure... Great stuff guys!
So my collegue run's WM6 on his Wizard (which had the oldest possible ROM on there... :i guess he is a nOOb to this stuff...) as from now, and he's very happy with it...
Ofcourse i didn't forget to tell him to upgrade AS to 4.5 before he could re-sync his device with Outlook, and within minutes after getting home he messaged me that his Wizard was back in business.
So, GUYS...! I wanna say a BIG thanks again to all who made all of this possible! Like mUn (and the other chefs) and all people who write these great tutorials... !

THNX !
Just like the idea of this thank you post.
so i like to thank everyone for joining in on this project and adding
there 2 cents
which in the end makes us richer and more fortunate
never i my 20 years of computerlife i would have thought that one would
make a device so much faster then my C64 and so much processingpower
in it that we probably wont use it 99% of the time.. lol
anyways i live for the moment this stuff being integrated in my wrist watch

Want to donate Prophet!!!

I have a prophet which I have no use for. It is not in the best condition but is in fully working order. Comes from orange but is unlocked and is running one of the old i-mate roms...
Now i can't decide who to donate it to but if any of you have ideas I will gladly accept any suggestions.
I only have the handset as i bought it years ago.
I DO NOT WANT MONEY FOR THIS AS LONG AS IT GOES TO SOMEONE THAT CAN APPRECIATE IT AND WILL NOT TRY TO SELL IT ON TO MAKE MONEY.
if the moderators have any ideas - maybe a competition of some sort
kind regards,
krassen
P.S. - photos can be found at http://81.86.99.181/Prophet/

hope it goes to a good cause
to me! (joke - I don't need 2 prophets)...
give it to crestdelta he needs a new phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=5951314
or to netrunnerat, he's always looking for a cheap prophet for testing
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1325570&postcount=17

Happily!
I already have a TyTN, but my father is jealous of it and would love getting a PPC!
EDIT: A competition would be a great idea, considering some might not be home 'till late and miss the offer.
EDIT 2: We (me or my father) would happily pay for the shipping

i'm sure some devs/cookers could use it.

i'll gladly take it off your hands & will pay shipping. Need it for the missus, she's been looking for a pda-phone since her palm t5 died.
please pick me!!
ta

No no no pick me!
Heheh.

up to the guy donating it, but i think it would be put to better use going to a developer than 'somebody's missus' ?

Yup, first, try to find a cooker that does need it so that he can release ROM's for it. That is, first, post to the Prophet Upgrading forum. If you don't find anyone or not any cooker / dev needs it, you can also think of me so that I can start publishing hands-on experience Prophet infos too.

Yup, experienced cookers / hackers / devs that would really like to release ROM's and other device-specific stuff for the Prophet should be preferred.

Yeah, some of these developers risk their phone for our sake.. it's only fair that they should be higher priority than those who already have a phone.

Menneisyys and Midget_1990 are good candidates for it.
They always have something good to contribute.

how about gullum or hma4? they're the best prophet rom cookers imho

Except they already have prophets

[+1] Menneisyys all the way. He has shared everything in so depth and loves to share his vast knowledge

So far we have two good candidates...
Menneisyys
Midget_1990
i wanted to get a few more good names and then make a poll and see...whoever wins it will get the device...

Let Midget_1990 have it if he plans to release cooked ROM's for it - after all, ROM's are more important for the general public than mere device-specific tricks & compatibility infos / reports I'd publish.

i'm not a cooker
I don't make roms
I don't really know what the Prophet is
I already have an Orbit
But I WILL swap you it for half a carrot, a turnip and a bag of frozen garden peas (although you will have to organize your own freezer van to ensure they arrive to you in a still frozen form..)
Sorry - its the wine talking.......I'll go away now......

I would be glad to get that prophet because I need to have a working phone during daytime for my work.... so I can only flash at might because I can't miss any calls from customers .... I get verry litle sleep because I have to do all my coocking and flashing at late hours

there is the best candidate ^^
(rom's are no problem btw )

Can we recommend JIGGS for this, OUR 1 and ONLY CHEF of ATOM ROM?

Noob

Hello Folks,
Noob just joined as I just purchased an M3100 from ebay. Its unlocked and has been upgraded to WM6. I was offered a M3100 as an upgrade (with orange) back in august but I chose the Nokia N95 instead. I'm a phone/gadget freak. Always loved playing with phones, upgrading, changine software etc. Had a few smartphones in the past and have had one windows based phone (SPV E200).
I liked it, I thought it was a nice change from the usual simple phone menus and software. Mucked about with that too, installing unlock software etc. My N95 I've already debranded and added several after market progs.
Anyway enough babbling. Followed this forum for quite a while as I've always hankered after a TYTN even though I have an N95. Had some extra cash (birthday) so I got myself one . Cant wait to muck about with roms etc. Oh yeah umm, and hi!!

A senior member with a junior attitude, very nice

Welcome to the hermes forums.
Most new members find in a short time that asking questions that have been asked already will get them flamed by other members, espically senior members.
Wait I'm a senior member....
Seriously though you will love tinkering with all the stuff here. I love it. But this is not a forum where you can introduce yourself as a new member(as you have seen)That's a HowardForums or Brighthand kind of thing..
You will hear this more than once: "read the wiki". Words to live by.
For a head start:
Install HardSPLv7 (2.10 Olipro)
Find a rom you like (cant go wrong with shaps or Vp3g)
Perhaps a new radio (gotta try em all to see if they are good/bad for your area)
Lots of guys have done great work in here, so enjoy the fruits of their labor...
Oh yeah and if you find your incall volume to low, try the vp3g with setacoustic i served up.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=342174
Anyway welcome and good luck, hopefully it's your only flame....

very nice intrglctcrevfnk
I would only add one thing...
truscotsman72 should also check out THE MRVANX GUIDES for great upgrade assistance.
Otherwise, a very nice introduction to the forums. One other thought (now that I think of it) which may help explain the rather cool reception our noob friend received. These forums got their origins as an exchange of very technical information between devlopers - like the nearly-godlike Olipro, pof, MrVanx, duttythroy, sleuth, jasjamming, vp3g, schaps, faria and many, many others.... The more mundane "support-like" helpers like lowly old me is a rather new phenomenon that only starts once the ROM world gets more stable. We have achieved that in Hermes WM6 world. It is (as you have witnessed) a mixed blessing.
Either way, welcome to XDA-Developers, warts and all.

Thx guys, yeah I have the wiki page bookmarked and been reading through this site for hours. Very informative and interesting, which is why I joined. As for the welcome, it was just force of habit as with most forums you introduce yourself. Didn't mean to p*ss anybody off, just thought that was no way for a noob to be spoken to for saying hello (ok I did go on a bit). And I have the MRVANX guides bookmarked too, cheers

Well I received my M3100 this morning, nice machine, instruction book like a bible, but I'm having fun with it anyway. The GPRS doesn't work (something about settings) but google is my friend, oh and Device Information is:
Rom: Pro Black 3.0.1
Radio: 1.16.00.00

I assume you are in scotland? In your profile you can save what carrier and location you are. Helps for others to know in case you need help.
There is a page around here somewhere that has connection settings for different carriers somewhere....
I'll add it to this post when I find it.

Its ok, I got the GPRS settings from this site by searching, its up and running now. I can surf the net, only problem I have now is, how to disconnect when done surfing. I guess I should RTFM
As for Device Info, yeah I'm gonna stick it in my sig

Developers please help to keep Herald ALIVE!!!!!!!!!

Hi guys , it is true that herald is somehow out dated but we can still keep it alive by new looking roms ,sorry i donnot mean to spam or ask for free labor ,we will donate , from me as far as i live in Iran ,we donnot have credit cards to donate but we can done it by clicking and supporting sponserd links
anybody interested in keeping him alive!?

I think I have breathed all the life into the Herald/Wing/Dopod that I can:
I have made the Wing look like Windows Phone 7 (with my Trib7 Suite), like the HTC Evo (with my SPB Snark Edition), like the HTC HD2 (with my TribM2D ROM Set) and I have made Titanium available for the Wing. Not only that I have made it light and fast with my Base ROM with more than 70MB of internal storage.
In retro spect, I hope that new and old users of the device provide more ROMs. But I don't think it is feasible..
Not because of the people using the devices - not at all - but because of the limit to the device's resources and because Microsoft won't be putting out anymore updates: Build 23676 is the latest and greatest from Microsoft as of the 14th of August. After this, I don't believe that there will be anymore updates to work with.
As a challenge, mate, I'd like to see people out there make a ROM with this build.

I'm personally waiting for android to be better completed and then jump completely over to that... which is wing linux.
Still, while the wm 6.x are a huge improvement over what came with the phone and was definitely worth it and appreciated... there are a few bugs that are annoying. It would be great to see those fixed but I don't expect it to happen. The current state is good enough to be better anyway.

I agree
Hi everyone
Dear Tribulattifather or may i call you "the king of the wing"
i have used your roms and they are all best. as you mentioned we have a limited resources ... i would like to cook new roms but 1 thing that i donnot know where to start , many threads but as a noob to cook i need some clear directions ,if you can point me a good direction so i will be the soldier for you ,
thanks again for care Tribulattifather

Your the best !
I found your guide about cooking roms ! the best developer ever ! i will try to put my ideas and make a new rom but not as a challenge !!!!

Thank you; I really appreciate your patronage.
I can't wait to see what you guys come up with. I was thinking about getting another Wing again. They're pretty cheap now.
If you make a ROM i'll test it out.

Thats good
Hi
Thanks ! is there any visual emulator of herald so it will help us preventing sudden bricking the phone ?
2- if i wanna use spb shell only i have to put it on cabs folder ?
thanks again

Well, if you plan on making custom firmware for your device you should HardSPL your phone.
But you actually don't need custom firmware for SPB.
There is unfortunately no emulator for our phones, however.

Thanks again .cuz i thought there was some emulator for hd2 , so i will try to collect as many icons as i can ! thanks again

Okay. Cool.
Hey, also, I just bought another Wing
So i'm ready whenever you are
