After noticing that wm2005 was availible for himalaya i decided to try n make it work on the XDA 2s my attempt was a complete success and my xda 2s now runs WM2005 to make it run though is extremely difficult and i will create a Tutorial later today along with screenshots
Regards
Hrmm...considering the WM2005 rom that was leaked was a rom specifically designed for the hardware of the Himalaya, I would still be weary of putting it on a Blue Angel, even if it was indeed possible.
Can you post how u did that ? thanks

Hmmmm, new user, logs in for the first time and his (or her) first and only post is to say WM2005 is on a BA device.........
Me thinks NOT!
Well lets wait and see......
I happen to agree with you there, but as you said, only time will tell.
Hey it makes a change from the first post being "How do I upgrade"?
So let's give him a chance. Waitin for a tutorial...
Has anyone tried MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe with the Windows Mobile 2005 Himalaya Rom we have on a Blue Angel? I'm too scared of the consequences to try .

Already try didn't work.
*impatiently waits*
patiently, maybe not
I also and waiting patiently, or not, for the upgrade tutorial.
I hope it is not a hoax.
Come.... on... we are waiting... show us how to do it
Mods should just shut this bogus thread down. If they're legit, they can recreate the thread with details.
I totally agree. Shut this thread down before it gets too many more people's hopes up.
close this thread??? ban him for life!!!
Yeah right, suurrre it works...Not!
If this guy has managed to get a 2005 ROM on a BA. One of us would have bugged the crap out of him for him to upload his Rom Dump by now. Is everyone as (yawwwn)... skeptical as me? We just might as well wait for the new T-mobile MDA IV and the XDA ??? three and a half or four something.. well you get the idea. I love my Blue Angel but I am not going to brick it on OS that was NEVER orginally written for it.
It has been going on more that 9 months since the Blue Angel release and it is already high time for the carriers to start pushing the upcoming all new, all 2005 loaded, redesigned models instead of wasting anymore time trying to please anyone of us who made HTC rich from buying one of thier cellular branded $800- $1000 phones. But as the saying goes....seeing is beliveing.
hahahah..this is total crap
i already tried flashing the wm2k5 rom on my BA ...doesnt work dude
i think the thread starter is a bog fat liar..if thats his way (by lying) to start a relationship i think we shod warn his wife..
I totally agree with that
Changed the heading
its seem to me that all the ba user just sleep away no body making any effort to get 2005 i dont think something is awaible for himmalay will not fit to ba
it unbeleviable

i cant beleive that there are people out there that are still posting these new threads about wm 2005, we aint getting it yet, when we do, you will see in big letters on the title, remember to READ the forum next time.
to icohen2005
i think thats a very offensive post ..
HIMALAYA and TYPHOON was just lucky that someone manage to get in hand .. but you will see also that their are peole risking just to have this OS ..
please refrain for creating that offensive remarks, you should know first whats going on before creating a thread ..

Just wondering how much effort you have put in icohen2005, it would be nice to see any results from testing that you have carried out. By the way, this is not a commercial venture here on the board, its guys and gals giving time and effort and sometimes rendering their phones useless by pushing the limits. If you have something to offer then post it and lets all share, until then please keep your negative comments for those that like listening to groundless whining.

so do you think that?
i explain
they use software that doesnt exist so they develop it
they use knoledge that ist availaible and they find it
they test the software in their devices so somethimes they ruined it
they do all this for us users of htc devices for free
so please even befoure some of them make some software,or dig some information or get something for your device that inst ready for guys like you and me to use it not fair you give them a motive to stop
so if you think that please use your spare time and search for information about you device who knows you problaby find a magneto working version in you local store just dump the rom here they will make it work that i m sure of.......
i read somewhere here that a guy have it at hand and coulnd get to it how fustrating that may be that one deserve applause you just more work to do.....so stop complaining and get you hands dirty
hope never dies just me....
i see that i make some people too angry maybe this is better i make some effort
and my next one to take himalya 2005 and try to install on my sx66 siemens
as far till now i find out that all this ba gadget are still beyond of any satisfaction on each level that u checking
1wireless connection and the way to find is too poor
2 bt driver simply dissater no conectivity for voice
3.no voice dialing
4the rom that install sometime in the middle of the day stuck the machine
and this is only very few problem.
in the first i think its only my
personal ba problem
but after meeting a lot of people in new york i found out that this is regular problem that every <crazY gadget> facing today so if the next level
not solving this basic problem we shuld show to the manfactures of ba and other and spiecialy to microsoft what we think about the pda+phone
i know i sound a little bitter but i think we spend to much money and time just to get the basic thing that this company shuld provide

You have made people angry because there are people on this board who freely give up time, energy, and sometimes their devices just to help people on this board, and then you come on and state 'they're not trying' and that 'you can't believe' that it can't be done. Try it, and learn...
You suggest it would be easy just to port the hima wm2005 to your BA. By all means try, assuming you can write new drivers for most of the hardware, or obtain them from HTC :lol: , write new MMS apps, etc etc. Or perhaps you'd rather have a device that doesn't work with half the software installed? Not sure I see the benefit.

Well if you're so unhappy with the product, why buy it, or why not send it back within the 14 days that most providers give you?
I purchased a BA and experienced the same as you, however with tinkering and with following the advice, freely given by members of this site, my machine's now much better. I don't just come on the board and whinge.
As for your performance problems - try reading the WIKI - lots of information there about how to remove o2 active ui etc, bluetooth patches etc. I rarely need to reset mine now!
i got the himalaya WM5 rom to flash to my device, but it was stuck in boot loader mode, so i flashed back to the 1.40 rom and all was ok. maybe i f'd up somewhere, but at least i got it flashed to my device. (oh, and for the slow, i own a Seimens SX66)
Well its been a while since i started the petition and there has been a massive response for it too.
I have sent a couple of E-Mails to O2 about the petition with no response so far, whats new there ??
Anyway, i have almost given up hope for WM2005 on the XDAIIi but we cant say we never tried ehh ?
To date we have near enough 1000 signatures (some duplicates) and if i had thought before hand, i would have limited it to UK and O2 only, prob the biggest flaws of the petition and why i havnt chased it as much as i first hoped to.
Anyway .... we now currently have a more stable ROM, and more importantly, we know why the device hangs on a regular basis when people use SD cards.
I Love my XDAIIi now WM2005 or not
Just for the sake of it .... heres the last stats on the petition if anyone is interested.
Signatures (First and Last Names)
Total number 920
Total number today 16
Total number within last week 116
cheers for info ,it's a pity they don't listen ,because the xda2i is still brand new in my books it's like buying a car and within 1 year you can't get parts
anyway we did try ,i'll remove my link
seem like everybody forgot that there's no WM5 for Alpine and busy with the Blackberry........ im sad about wm5, but i will wait....
Well, I was creating a custom ROM with the IPL and SPL files from the T-Mobile 2.26, The Faria / Shogun UWC ROM, the molski Splash screens and the Cingular 2.25 GSM to make a "complete" ROM to see if it would resolve my GSM issues. Computer completely locked up at 4%... After waiting 30 minutes with no progress I figured that it was bricked as the phone now only has the IPL and SPL info on the screen with no GSM or OS being reported. Forced device into bootloader and attempted to reflash but got communication errors with everything. Then for grins (I wasn't grinning!!!) I ran the 1.05 installer which didn't find the phone either ... but then it just went through anyway! The happy Button Beer Splash screen appeared and I had all the 1.x's! Successfully then upgraded back up to the 2.26 and all is well.
I think that someone was smiling down at me!!!
Just wanted to share as maybe this just might help someone.
*** For those that needed the ftp location to Button's 1.05 Basic Downgrade ROM ***
YOU BASTARD, Just Kidding I am happy for you.
Well, probably just tell everyone where you get the installer that solved the problem

Every time I've seen the IPL/SPL not change from the button 1.05 it's because someone didn't unlock the CID.
Is that fast enough?

Get in line! (and bring a lunch as it's a LONG line!)
LOL....yeah, I've got a pretty long line here myself. BTW, it is me or has the number of people trashing their phones started to get ridiculous? I mean, on one hand it sucks to be them for not knowing anything about what they're doing but on the other hand, it's just a matter of time before someone ruins their phone and looks into legal recourse because that seems to be all the rage these days.
Holy cr*p... he said hurry up...lol
sorry, i was just busting up, maybe it's a joke, but foreals, he said "hurry up"... who says that... especially when asking for help. Anyways, just wanted to show my appreciation for the rom, what you, faria, shogun, and all the beta testers are doing is amazing... Can't wait till the release...
ahhh man, i got to do it one more time...

I agree that there seem to be more and more people now that don't have the patience to wade through the numerous threads and posts here regarding the possible pitfalls regarding upgrading a ROM. Most often that "don't do this if you're not aware of the possible bricking, etc" message is on the very first page goes unread. Of course no one reads those.... I mean, who reads a EULA (End User License Agreement) ???
I'm actually having a great day when I don't respond to a post regarding a question I already answered on the same page... but we've all been there!
And I pity the fool that tries to sue me!
Ah, I'm just ranting as I live for the abuse....
I am glad I did...saved me a lot of potential problems... but anyway, molski's new rom really works great...
a big pat at the back of the great guys in this forum that gave us all the wonderful wizard roms... =)
Cool, I was just curious. I've worked for a couple of people who had way more money than brains and I could easily see them showing up, not wanting to be bothered with instructions, ruining their phone and immediately calling a lawyer to have the site shut down and all those behind it burned at the stake. But they could spell, so that had that going for them. Which is nice.
Personally, I liked a message somewhere on here from some clown who goes on a rant about how "windoze" sucks (and used all the rest of those trite old sayings that were kind of cute 15 years ago when someone still cared about OS/2), then talks about how he was too high to be bothered with paying attention to what he was doing, trashed his phone so someone help right f-ing now. That's class right there. Makes me wonder how some people find a door to get out of the house in the morning.

OS/2 ... and I see that you're also a "senior member"... my we're showing our age
Actually I kinda liked CP/M but I'm so freak'n old I forget how old I really am ...
(but at least my spelling hasn't suffered...yet!!!)
Ha! Well...yeah, on one hand I still have a copy of OS/2 around here somewhere. On the other hand it wasn't too many years ago when I finally quit my position as the vocalist of a hardcore punk band, so it's all relative.
I make a pretty good living at this development thing and yet when I went to Tmo and got an MDA, there was still a little sticker shock. When I brought it home and thought about updating the radio ROM because the original was terrible, I read about updating for several days before I actually tried it myself. Read about how to recover from a bad flash, read about all the potential problems and how to avoid them. Read and read and read some more and when I thought I had it all down pat, I read it all one more time, just to be sure. And even then, I was sweating bullets when I did the actual update. This wasn't my first PDA phone and I had flashing experience from previous phones, the latest being a blue angel. Now that Tmo has released their 2.26 rom which works very well (for me, anyway), I absolutely refuse to flash anything else anymore because why risk it? To look cool? I don't think so.
Given that, it just boggles my mind how someone could drop that kind of money on a phone, bring it home, slap it onto a usb port and with no experience and not bothering to really read anything, attempt to flash anything and expect (expect!) to be successful. There was that goof I mentioned above and, even better, was that guy who decided the rom image in the ftp folder named "TEST_ROM_DO_NOT_FLASH" (or something like that, I forget offhand) was a good choice who then got downright indignant when people made fun of him for being such an idiot. I just don't get it. I have a 15 year old who thinks more clearly than that....and he can flash his phone. And has. Many times. And that's why I lost patience after a while.
I have no patience (maybe that's why I'm not a real doctor)
OK, So I am completely new to this stuff on a consumer basis. I used to work for Symbol Technologies testing Windows Mobile 5 when it was still in alpha/beta on our products. Now, my question for you all is Which is your favorite ROM?
I have been looking around here and I have found a few, I was able to get my SIM unlocked and my SID unlocked in about 20 mins on my Cingular 8125 So Thank you all for your contributions on that
I also learned a ton of stuff about these devices that even after working with them for almost a year I didnt know.
I decided to make this poll not only for my own curiousity, but for those people who are new to this like I am and want a qucik opinion on whats best out there. If i leave something out let me know
Thanks again everyone for this forum, its awsome!
I'm sure I've left a lot out, but I put the roms on this poll that i frequently came across in reading all the posts I've hit
T-Mobile 2.26 is my favourite, but faria 3.2 is a good candidate.
Faria rom by yards! It was the first rom to really wow me since the release of mobile 2005!
according to the poll ..
anyways i've tried farias, might give it another shot but i liked Molski's rom so as soon as i saw the upgrade i wanted to give it a try. im happy with it get the job done.
Faria's !
Without the slightest hesitation !
Cheers

I think it is kind of like asking "what is the best car". I have not seen a "bad" ROM yet here, but what are you looking for - speed or features or comfort and ease or ????? - again just like a car. You will find it from any of the "wizards" (pun intended) who put the results of their efforts on here for you - most noticeably Faria, Shogunmark, Molski, Risidoro, and Summiter (WHERE IS HE??).
I must have flashed my phone 20 or more times by now, with never once having a problem - JUST FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS!! Try a few and see what you like.

Funny, I thought the same thing this morning. And I LOVE your ROM. But I've avoided being one of the 20 million people asking you to hurry up and release RC1 so now I'll use this Poll as an excuse: bring RC1 out now and you will CRUSH this poll!!!

Wow! That is amazing stuff. I knew about the drive crash, but not that you still needed info. I could reinstall Beta 4 and try the voice command deal you asked about, but I know nothing about the page pool.
Anyway, all good stuff, and your ROM is destined for greatness.
