Okay, so I just joined the rooting world, and now I'm having just a little problem... I installed DarchDroid v2 on my Sprint Hero, and it is a AMAZING ROM so far, and I look forward to discovering more roms, and hopefully I become more knowledgable about rooting and android over time, and I don't know how to get all the stuff (market, gmail, maps, ect.) onto the phone, i have the .apk files on my memory card, I just don't know how to install them to the device. Please, someone help me! Thank you in advance!

Hi,
I want to do a complete upgrade on my T-Mobile MDA (US) to WM6. I want to be able to keep all of the T-Mobile features (Email, HotSpot, GPRS/EDGE, etc) and have all of the new WM6 features. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance
you want to have your cake and eat it too.
Reading is fundamental. But the Search button is your friend. All the info you need is located in this forum. Don't expect handouts if your not willing to work.
I understand what he's getting at so don't flame, as some of these programs are actually built into the ROM, and may not be WM6 compatible. They also have at least one program and several icons placed by the extended ROM, so if you have a G4, you may be SOL if you use the IM program. Heck I'm going to be working on the same thing over the next three weeks, since I am a t-mobile customer back in the states. I've already managed to get two of the t-mob WWE AKU 3.3 OEM working (damn that's a lot of adjectives). I'll try to keep you up on my progress, but this is going to be slow going for the meantime.

Save off your EXT Rom. You can reinstall these apps after your flash (provided all work in WM6)
As for your GPRS/EDGE and MMS you can use the cabs from your EXT Rom or you can enter the settings manually from the T-Mobile website.
Details on how to do these things are all over this forum. You need to read. Most likely you do not NEED WM6 you just WANT it. You need to determine if your want justifies the cost of replacing your device if you don't research properly before jumping in with both feet and mess it up. Do you know if your device is a G3 or G4 yet? If not read, read, read. There is no need for people to give you step by step instructions in your thread as there are already step by step instructions in the STICKY threads (you have read these, right?).
i have a program that allows u to mount the extended rom, then u can access the ext rom from file explorer and copy it to the mini sd. its attached as htweakc. also, i attached the t-mobile ozim instant messaging program. good luck

Thank you!
I appreciate everyone's feedback.
nstefanelli, thank you for attaching those files for me. I'm going to try them out this weekend.
I'll let everyone know how it goes.
T-Mobile Hotspot App
Hi,
On a related matter, does anyone have the T-Mobile Hotspot app handy? Do I need to install it into my non-TMobile Hermes if I want to subscrible to TMobile and use their Hotspots?
Kind regards,
Neil
no app is needed. i am on wm6 and NEVER installed the app. i was at SFO a couple months ago (i have had WM6 since early feb) and i used the WIFI just fine!
Hi, I have a Fuze, and im in the search for the best ROM , im testing a few roms (3 already in 2 days) and in 2 of the previous roms i've tested the phone let me use/setup my Hotmail account on the MAIL tab of TF3D, but the current ROM doesnt. Also i think i had a Messenger on both of the other roms but this one doesnt, so im thinking it has to do something with that.
Do you guys know anything about this?
what do i need, and were do i find it.
THANKS i Hope you guys can help me!
BTW: I really search before posting but didnt actually found the answer, maybe i dont know how to use the search!??
Some Roms include the things that are missing in other Roms. Most of the time you can find the missing cab files in the thread that you got the Rom from. The one that does the windows live is called windowslive....cab
Ok, I think this CAB, works:
10.6.34.0800 - LATEST
its located on this TOPIC :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334621&highlight=windows+live
OK, i test it, and it works, i hope this Topic helps anyone...
Hey guys just curious if there was a quick way to get the Hero Browser.apk and Mail.apk to run on Cupcake? I tried bundling the APK's in my update.zip and resigning but i got "browser.apk wrong digest"
I'm assuming these need to be properly ported or need some sort of support files? any help would be appreciated. These are really the only two parts of hero i like more than cupcake.
Thanks for any advice!
Also, how about the weather app. Is it port-able?
I read the web browser is tied up with the sense UI, so i think that might be a no go.
i beleive the only thing that is ported so far is the HTC music app, but i'm stilll a bit of a n00b, so maybe someone with more knowledge can confirm
Try taking more time to read and search this forum.. also.. ask yourself.. if it was as simple as replacing a few files.. don't you think all the custom roms woudl already have included these applications?
Decided to make a new thread that we can use to try to troubleshoot this thing.
So far we know that is runs perfectly on Legend Roms due to the OpenSense Plugin. So we need to port that over to the Sprint Rom. (darchstar)
I am 100% in on helping but don't have much skill in this area. So this is a "CALLING ALL DEVS" type of thing, lol.
Attached you will see are the .apks for FriendStream, including the widget. Let me know if there is anything specifically needed so I can upload for easier access for all.
Thanks!
Ok... so tried to do a quick fix type thing, but didn't work. I was copying over files from the legend rom to see if that would work. and no dice....
any insight would be appriciated... cause i'm stumped...
I don't plan on running a sprint rom again anytime soon, so i don't think i'll be working on a fix for this. But if you want, i will gladly help you out in your endeavors. could you please post a full logcat on pastebin.com of you getting the force close when you try to start friendstream on whatever rom youre running, and we can work from there.
Sounds good... now don't want to sound too dumb, but when i run the logcat i'm getting everything. how do i filter just friendstream?
you could probably pipeline and grep,
but no, don't just give me the friendstream bits. I want everything, it makes it easier on me.
PasteBIN.com - ADB Logcat: Fresh 2.0D
Is that good?..
apk problem
Hello, my name is Leilany, I was hoping you would have a moment if possible to help me with a minor problem I created on my EVO.
After I rooted my phone I deleted the Friendstream app and now my phone will not stop syncing. I have tried to install the friendstream.apk using Astro and appinstaller and both say "application not installed". I have saved both the com.htc.friendstreamwidget.apk and the friendstream.apk to the root of my SD as well as under downloads and nothing seems to work. I am not sure how to move forward and it sounded like you maybe understood this issue reading through some of the advice you have given in the forums. I hope to hear from you soon, I would really appreciate the help. Thank you.

Did you try just reflashing the rom? Also might help to go to the EVO thread for help, a lot of differences in our two devices.
