This is from a brand new HTC Apache, SprintPCS PPC-6700. CDMA, WM5, BT 1.2, WiFi, EV-DO, etc.
The Radio and ExtROM are there also. I'm hoping this will help us Harrier users get WM5 on our phones in combination with the leaked BA WM5 ROM...
92GTA, thanks for your persistence Here is hoping this helps us 6600 users get closer to WM5. One thing I noticed is that the hardware version for both the 6600 and the 6700 both say 0041, so I am really hopeful.
Crossing my fingers on this one. Make sure Buzz is made aware of this ROM!
Well, I'm no expert, and I have no equipment, no software, and no skills, lol. So I can't help much here. But I do applaud the effort and wish there were some way I could contribute.
Anyway, I would imagine that if you take the ROM from an Apache (Sprint PPC-6700) and compare it to the ROM of a Wizard, whatever the differences are is probably exactly what the differences between the Harrier and Blue Angel ROMS need to be (for WM5 to be functional on both).
Just a thought...

Hey could you possibly dump your device?, or guide me to a tutorial or a way to upgrade my harrier to 2.04? thanx
Wheres the ROM Gone??
Hi could you post the rom again, its not on the ftp anymore. I'm after ril.dll in particular. THanks
I browsed around in the FTP.
Since the Apache is some sort of upgrade of the Wizard (? - I think, I don't understand the differences between them), I figured it was in the Wizard section...and it is.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/HTC_Wizard/Extended_Roms/Sprint PPC 6700 extended ROM.zip
thats just the extended rom (the carrier's customisation files). I meant the full ROM. Anyway its ok I dont need it now I got the ril.dll I needed from the wizard instead.
btw the apache is a cdma variation of the wizard, only available in the usa as the sprint 6700, but verizon are releasing it soon.
how do you dump the rom? I've got a sprint 6700 ...
sprint has a 2.xxrom now, i want to put that on my 1.05 verizon xv6700-will it cause major problems?[/quote]
Hey. My T-Mobile MDA broke, and i'm sending it back (i have the insurance plan).. they told me that the MDA is out of production and that they'll send me the new replacement, the wing instead. I read the reviews and the thing that stuck out is that the CPU is still the same speed as the MDA technology, while all the other wireless companies new WM6 phones are double the speed (200Mhz vs 400-500Mhz). The reviews I've read say that it hurts the performance of the WING.. does anyone own a wing an find it disappointing? I'm considering having them send me the DASH instead, just so i don't have to deal with the size and stylus, which is another road.. but my basic question is what is the general feelings on the WING?
Thanks,
Adam
Just got my Wing to replaced my MDA. Overall, Wing is an improvement over MDA IMHO. If you're not sastisfy with MDA speed, Wing would be the same disappointment.
Wing vs Dash is not a good comparison. Try to go Tmobile store and play around with both to see which one you like. It's personal reference.
I've used the Dopod C800 (Herald, the same phone as TMo Wing, but with WM5) for a while now and it's a great improvement on the Wizard in may ways though not the speed. But even with WM5, the phone is certainly fast enough for me - and I used to use the much faster Hermes before it broke.
While the Dash is a great phone too, you need to decide on whether you're comfortable with a Smartphone without a touch screen... that's a major but very personal decision!
i decided to stick with them sending me the wing.. are u suggesting i downgrade to z WM5 ROM when i get it? I was thinking more along the lines of going with a WM6 ROM and overclocking the cpu..
Wise choice if you ask me!
I meant, my Dopod C800 only has WM5 which I still find fast enough. WM6 is a little bit faster on the same hardware in my opinion.
downgrading may be a problem at present. I guess sooner or later someone will release a cid unlocker for it. I think WM6 on the Wing slows it down.
I have a question, do you have T-mobile in the US or another country? and do you have to pay to send in the MDA and recieve a Wing? My MDA is starting to act weird and if i can i would like to send it in and recieve a Wing instead.
I really enjoy my Tilt and want to take advantage of some of the new offerings from this site, especially in terms of radio performance. However, as you all know, all of the lastest radios interfere with the normal sound operation when installed on the Tilt.
Can someone please explain to me why this is happening? And can I beg and plead with some of the Guru Chefs on this site to help us lowely Tilt owners by finding a solution so that we too can revel in the glory of OEM freedom?
That being said...I love this forum. This is a killer community. Even with the video driver issue, I am so glad I bought an HTC phone and can be part of the excitement. It's amazing how much of the industry is affected by what goes on right here in this place. Thanks to all of the contributers for their time and effort.
The new radios will only work with the new 6.1 roms that came out. Once you put the new rom on your tilt then the new radio will also work. I am holding off though on upgrading to 6.1 because I don't want an official rom. I would rather have a cooked rom so I am waiting until the cooked 6.1 roms get out of beta.
I am using the DCS v1.1 on my phone with the newest radio and am loving it...

Allright I just got a Tilt that's locked to ATT and I am loving it. The amount of info on XDA is mind boggling on the updating subject, and I have been reading for the past 4 days. Please dont flame/hate me, I am just trying to avoid bricking my lovely gadget.
My biggest problem with the Tilt right now is, the proxy settings dont seem to stick. I am hoping that a ROM upgrade might fix that. Other then that I find the eye candy, useful applications (as opposed to junk from ATT) offered by these ROMs combined with their frugal use of memory quite appealing. Someone mentioned they speed up the device considerably.
Question is, how do I choose. I am assuming that you look for a ROM that works with your radio, and work backwards. But is a latter version of a Radio ROM always better? Would a radio ROM for a TyTn II work on the Tilt.
I have not found any info where it says what will and WILL NOT work for a specific instrument, in my case a Tilt.
Hope some Tilt user might be able to clarify.

I'd follow the above suggestion to hit the Tilt wiki...and just as a freebie, I'll take these two questions.
The newer the radio idea doesn't work here. You should really try every radio version that works with the ROM you are using. Why? They all have different absorbtion rates and this affects signal quality/strength and battery drain. What works for you might not work as well for me. And since flashing the radio doesn't wipe all of your programs...it doesn't hurt to swap it every couple of days while you experiment.
As for TyTN II radios on the Tilt....(taken straight from the wiki)
HTC Kaiser is also known as HTC P4550. Official names are:
HTC TyTN II
Qtek & HTC TyTN II / P4550
Orange & HTC TyTN II
T-Mobile MDA Vario III Deutsch
AT&T Tilt (8900, 8915, 8925), FAQ - Tilt nuances, TiltSpecificWikiPage
Vodafone Personal Assistant Compact V
Vodafone v1615 Netherlands
SFR v1615
Swisscom Mobile Assistant XPA v1615
O2 Xda Stellar
These are all the same device with a different name stamped on it.
You could choose any ROM there's some wonderful chefs out there (Dutty, Schaps, Alex, Sleuth, etc,etc....). I have had flashed my Tilt God knows how many times with different ROMs. It's about taste on each ROM, read the specifications on each thread about the ROM and flash it. If it wasn't what you were looking for, choose another ROM. And look here about the Radio version that will work on the Tilt http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349375
I'm in Los Angeles using radio 1.27.12.17 and I've very good reception all the time on my tilt.
Happy flashing
This is awesome
I have honestly not see a forum with such a speedy response. I am already deep into the Wiki . Thanks for all the help and a kudos to all the great Chefs.

as far as I understand.. if you want the official 6.1 update you have to sign up at HTC.com with your serial number and then it'll be listed under "updates for your phone" or if you want one of the much better much more fun roms here on xda-developers, you'll have to read the wiki about flashing your rom... it gives a very clear step by step.
The WiKi gives you all the information you need about flashing.
You will also find all ROM's there that have been released. Official and Coooked
you need to HARDspl your phone.... do this before trying anything further! Read the sticky's or the wiki!!!!!
