CDMA Harrier WM5 Project!!!!!

First off, here is where we are putting al of the files for this project:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Harrier/WM5 Project/
For those who don't know, the HTC Apache is the first CDMA WM5 phone. Being that the only Blue Angel form factor available ROM is GSM based not CDMA Harrier based, in order for us to make WM5 work on a CDMA Harrier we are going to be taking the files we need from thr Apache.
Now, on the server right now is a complete file dump from an Apache which should contain all of the needed files. It's a file called "Apache 1.03.00 WWE File Dump.rar" and located here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Apache/
We are working with Apache owners right now to also get the EVDO Radio from the Apache also uploaded. We already have an EVDO-Radio PRL and it is uploaded under the file name "PRL 10026 Modded 4 EVDO Radios.rar". We are going to try and use the EVDO Radio from the Apache and if we can this PRL should work until we get the 20215 PRL from the Apache. If we can't use the Apache's radio, this PRL will work with the non-Apache EVDO Radio. It's uploaded in a file called "Harrier EVDO Radio HA01_151.rar". This 10026 PRL is simply modded to be EVDO Radio compatible, it will NOT give you EVDO. We are also going to get the Apache's ExtROM uploaded so we have all of the SPCS carrier specific apps and features that we need.
Ok, the only I think we are going to be able to do this, is to have a knowledgable BA owner like Buzz, mamaich, ramram, and others, help us Harrier owners like me. We need a BA owner to help us get the current BA WM5 ROM to boot on a Harrier. Right now we get a "NO GSM" error and it won't boot. Hopefully one of these knowledgable GSM guys will help us figure out which files in the BA ROM are causing this and take the needed files to fix this from the Apache file dump and copy them on a GSM BA and then get that on an SD card and uploaded so we can atleast get it to boot. Then I think us Harrier guys can figure out most everything else and patch it using the Apache's files so we don't have to bother the BA guys anymore.
So, are there any BA guru's willing to help on this project?
Also on the server are the following needed files which are Harrier specific:
2003SE ExtROM Resizer.rar
2003SE ExtROM Unhide & Unlock.rar
Harrier EVDO Radio HA01_151.rar
mamaich's 5.03.02 WWE (Patched v2).rar (BA ONLY right now!)
mamaich's Fix's.rar
Missing Files from Apache 1.03.00 WWE.rar
Missing Files from HIM WM5.rar
PRL 10026 Modded 4 EVDO Radios.rar
ROM Dump Apps.rar
WM5 File Dumper.rar
WM5 ROM Installer.rar

WOOT
Im here to help...
what can I do?

Bump.
Any news yet?

Ill jump in and see what I can do to help

any news?
BUMP!!

I have an extra device I can beat up on
if there is anything I can do...I have an extra vx 6600 (don't ask) that I can beat up on, Load, Reload as many times as needed. I can't make phone calls or test the quality of phone call, but I can test signal strength.
if I can help...Let me know,
Matt

Ditto on the "extra" XV6600 tip... If people need stuff tested over and over, I can do that. Have flashed my old T-Mobile Wallaby dozens of times using SD Card method, happy to do the same to my "other" XV6600.

Still nothing?
Alright...
Is there a thread where we can petition HTC to make a WM5 device with stuff we want so we can quit waiting on this to come out?

LOLOLOL
WTH! lets do something with this project! cdma phones are just as deserving as gsm phones.
Anyone able to get hands on cdma wm5 roms?
I see there are some apache files... will these work with the harrier?
Anyone have a spare ppc to test them out on?
I would but I only have 1 ppc and I cant afford to wreck it!

The only way to do it is if we can unlock the BA's ROM which no one seems to be able here to do. We can only unock the ExtROM...

havnt the gsm guys had to do this for their phones? if so ... why can't they help us do that to ours? not enough time for us? hmmmm

it would appear that way...

Ill be following this thread to upgrade my phone to WM5, im new I just need to make sure, should I even attempt this upgrade on my Sprint PPC 6601?

VZ Harrier want WM5
How are we comming on this. I really would liuke to try it. Don't care if I wreck my phone :twisted:

da project -
Hi, yeah got a imate PDA2k EDVO CDMA live in Australia hanging to get this mobile 5 going for some reason. (heard its crap) but yeah. Keep the dream alive team.

Bounty over at PDAPhoneHome
There is currently a bounty being offered at PDAPhoneHome for a working CDMA WM5 Rom. With mamaich's and gmap's recently released apps this shouldn't be to hard. The link is http://www.pdaphonehome.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=60026&perpage=20&pagenumber=1
I'll offer my CDMA device up for testing if one of you BA guys wanna try.

by the looks of that "bounty being offered" thread... things are getting VERY CLOSE! if anyone can offer any assistance in completing the final steps please come forward... we need YOU!!
I have a feeling someone will be recieving that bounty REAL soon.
Good luck to the individuals who are making the dream transition from wm2003se to wm5 on our harriers a realisation.
Thanks in advance
-cope

Yeah... keeping the dream alive till it becomes a real nightmare
They're making progress, and it actually looks like there's some hope.
In the meantime I'm gonna go get a newer rom and try that... things been acting up on me lately.
WM5 fix? HA! Not for 4-6 months after we get it... How many bugs were in the GSM version? :shock:
But there is hope. And I'm all for a good nightmare.
I'll be one of the first to try the upgrade and make my phone useless.
I was there the night the GSM one got posted and may have been the first CDMA person to see the "No GSM" screen.
Someone make me take a programing class so I can be more useful :roll:

Currently on ftp there is a WM5 Harrier romdump but only 2MB. Is there a WM5 OS ROM extractor/romdumper that works?

Upgrading to WM5.0 - Help Required

Hi All!
I am interested in upgrading my O2 XDA IIs (which I assume is a Blue Angel) to Windows Mobile v5.0. However, I am new to the ROM Upgrade scene, and therefore have a few questions!
1) Will my phone still work after I have upgraded? I use O2 on a post-pay GPRS contract.
2) Are there any downsides to having to upgrade?
If someone could either post back here or contact me through any of my listed methods to assist me in upgrading the phone?
Many Thanks!

Try reading Wiki..
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM5_Home
This will give you all the information you need to make the decision.. Remember, it needs to be your decision and not what anyone else recommends.. Personally, I still use the WM2003SE as it's better suited for my business needs and I need the [relative] stability that 2003 gives..
You also need to consider your skill level in playing with your device.. not only about "taking backdoor routes" to updating your BA but to also tweeking it using a Registry Editor..
There's nothing worse then seeing a post stating "HELP - I'VE BORKED MY BA!" as they were not too sure what they were doing..
Remember, reading is the best form of knowledge!
Hope this helps..?
Cheers.

I looked through the wiki earlier (before my post) - no details on whether it would still work. I took the plunge anyway and I am glad I did It worked fine.

Not to be an arse about it, but it's obvious that you did no research on this question before posting. A search of the forums would have shown you the thread located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=244441&highlight=CDMA+Harrier+wm5
You might get more results if you at least look first. If you have looked, you didn't state it and your post sounded like you couldn't be arsed enough to look.
Again, I'm not trying to be a jerk, I'm trying to make a point that many people seem to have problems grasping.

I've searched the forums many times, and I would still post the question from time to time if others didn't just to be sure someone didn't just discover something.
I personally would like to know if there is a Harrier CDMA upgrade to WM5 or WM6 that forgoes the the radio, or if someone has tried to use the radio "drivers" out of a 6700 (Apache) to any degree of sucess. In my research, I've seen the idea floated, but I'm not sure how deeply the situation has been probed.
I do appreciate the work Helmi and others do, and I simply want to know if there is any update on this front.

Guys, does a harrier get completely bricked if it is upgraded to WM6 or does it just lose its radio/phone functionality? The reason I ask is I am a Kaiser user but I have my old Verizon Harrier that I'd like to make use of its gorgeous 3.5" display for movies while in the car (very safe, I know).
I'm on ATT now, so no more Verizon. I'd be using this device strictly for its PDA functionality.
I realize I can just use TCPMP on the wm2003 OS as is, but i figured there were some chefs that had done some pretty sweet roms for the device. Heck, I don't even need WM6, I'll just take the best Rom, regardless of which winmo version.
I know in the kaiser forums, duttythroy is pretty much the heavyweight chef. Is there a similar heavyweight rom or chef that everyone tends to lean towards on the harrier/BA? I spent about 15 mins doing some searches and reading Wikis but honestly couldn't find any info on harrier cooked roms.

It is now possible that Harrier could be hacked.
Unfortunately, the HTC CDMA hacking community has moved on. The HTC encryption on the ROM wasn't broken until after Harrier was long discontinued.
And, with new devices sporting gpsOne and EV-DO Rev A, there are now clear technical advantages to modern devices.
Ideally, HTC would have done the right thing and kept supporting older models. But, you already know that...

I don't care about the radio on the Harrier
As the previous poster mentions...Can I slap a Blue Angel ROM on my Harrier if I don't care about the radio? It would be a great 2nd device if I could get WM5 or WM6 on it. Again...I don't need (nor want) the CDMA radio on it to work.
Thanks.

no sir, tried myself, almost bricked phone DO NOT DO IT.

Help in upgrading to WM6.1 and TyTN II

Hi,
I have just got the TYTN II from Hong Kong and I have been going through this forum about how to go about upgrading the ROM to WM6.1, however I see so many tutorials etc. Can anyone give me advise on a step by step and what needs to done to upgrade ot the latest WM6.1 ROM with advise on the Radios to be installed? BTW the unit is used in Australia with the 3 Network.
Thank and much appreciated for any help.

I'd like to help, but I don't know how to do that either. So, good luck...

Guys, it's only a matter of time before you incur the wrath of the n00b bashers that sadly patrol this forum. However for what it's worth my recommendation is that you use the search facility on this forum. All the information you require is here, use keywords like "radio" and "rom" and you willfind the relevant wikis. The 6.1 roms are pretty new here and some are still in beta and as I found out myself some of them don't work with the new 6.1 radios. I seriously believe you will reap the benefits if you read through the relevant posts rather than asking. Power to the n00bs!

Hmmmm,
Although,I can answer this very precisely,and I'm tempted to,but I'll just say that after 236 posts,you still can't find official carrier's wm5 rom of your phone,that's even more Sick !
Cheers!

What does posts have to do with this?
why don't try finding it? maybe you'll know what i mean.
I did my search fool. i'm not some asshole that made a new topic to make others search it for me.
I looked on the HTC site and i looked on the XDA FTP.
I Can't find the latests WM5 rom for the 8125 that uses Tmo.

That proves it ! Never heard of a latest wm5 8125 Rom that uses Tmo.Posts have got everything,with that number of posts,you shud have known,there's no such Rom. Cingular 8125 and T-mobile MDA are basically same devices build by HTC.Any Wizard wm5 rom,either from cingular or T-mobile will flash and work perfectly on it.You searched you never found it,just a 'Hint' , you'll find all the latest official wm5 stock roms here,"Read the freaki'n forum":-

Secondly,I wud rather advise you to check your language,abusive words won't get you anywhere.I can also be very abusive,but I prefer to be polite,respectfull and calm. This Forum doesn't encourage and promote abusive and hostile attitude,you might get penalized if reported or 'Moderator' finds out. Be careful there.

thank you for the link.
I know either frimware can be used on the 8125, but i wanted the most stable one for the 8125 and used the t-mo frimware. because for most of the frimware i tested shows t-mo on the load screen. for the ones that doesn't show t-mo it wasn't that stable with my network.
Also, was not being hostile or abusive to you. unless you consider the word "fool" as abusive. then im sorry, I say the word Fool often to people.
and i didn't call you an asshole if thats that's what you're thinking, I was simply implying i wasn't one. and people that usually ask without searching are.
so no need to feel offending.
anyway, thanks for the link. and i don't see how posts costs for experience. Most of my posts are asking questions in topics.
if you want to know why i'm sick of WM6 frimwares, here are the main reasons:
*phone hangs when i'm doing something, and then a call comes in.
*typing too fast on the keypad or keyboard will case the phone to soft reset, like typing an email reply.
*the phone hangs when an alarm starts and I never get to hear my alarm.
