Howdy yall,
I've created 2 executable ROM upgraders for Cingular 8125 users.
The first is a RUU package that will restore an 8125 to it's 100% stock shipping state.
This file is on the ftp at:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/Cingular/Cingular_RUU_1.8.11.1.WWE.ship.exe
The second file is a customized version of the latest Qtek AKU2 ROM. It requires that your device be CID unlocked to install. It includes the Qtek OS, Radio, IPL, and SPL ROM parts untouched. The extended ROM has been customized as follows:
-all Cingular customization cabs included EXCEPT "Singed_gprsstall_1228.sa.cab" which breaks wifi.
-cab created by ammar to allow enabling wireless Today screen item.
-SPCS cab to allow install of unsigned cabs
-PPCContactsMgr cab created by ammar to allow for selecting/deleting multiple contacts
-P_removeBTicon cab to remove the battery indicator in the tray
-P_DisconnectButton3s cab to allow for gprs disconnect when holding end key 3 seconds
SPLASH screen display order is set to Cingular, Cingular, Windows Mobile (same as stock)
I left the "Get Express mail" and Goodlink stuff despite wanting to blow it away.. =)
This file is on the ftp at:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/Cingular/Cingular_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_WWE.exe
Hopefully this is useful to Cingular folks who want to either go back to stock easily or go to the latest AKU2 ROM while maintaining Cingular customizations.
I take no responsibility for what happens to your device or the price of tea in China if you decide to use these RUU upgraders. I have swapped between the two versions several times today without problem.
your gonna make a lot of people happy with this easy process.
does this turn everything back to OEM spec ? including IPL etc ?

It does indeed. The IPL/SPL is returned to 1.08. I know there's probably a lot of folks who didn't want to try the new AKU ROM for fear of not being able to return to a 100% stock version....you can now do that easily.
Dude your awesome! I always put the newest rom on my device anyway, but its nice to know (in case device breaks) I can bring it back with no worries.
Absolutely awesome summiter! Just like the wayback machine that Mr. Peabody and Sherman would use in the old cartoon! Worked like a charm. (Forgot how slow that original ROM is...) Looking forward to installing your Cingular 2.17.
Thanks again dude, you're definitely gonna make a lot of people happy.

This is even better than what I was looking for originally. I wanted everything to be exactly like the 8125 on my Qtek 9100 because I'm on Cingular (I just like how the 9100 looks compared to the 8125). Now this came along as something even better - the newest Qtek 9100 ROM with the best combination of Cingular settings! I can't thank you enough!
EDIT: Hmm, everything works beautifully except one main thing: when I tried adding my GMail account to Outlook, I got to the point where it asks if it's a POP3 or IMAP4 account. I select POP3 and name it GMail, but when I click Next at the bottom, nothing happens. It's as if the button does absolutely nothing. Because of this, I can't add my email account because I can't proceed to the final step. Is anybody else having this problem?
I found it on Hofo posted by JediCorrado.
yanathin try this and let us know if it works.
Incoming Mail: pop.gmail.com:995
Outgoing Mail: smtp.gmail.com:465
under Options check "Require SSL Connection" "Outgoing mail requires authentication" "Use separate settings"
Click Outgoing Settings
Enter your username, password, check "Require SSL for outgoing mail"
The problem is that I can't even GET to the point where I enter my incoming/outgoing server... The "Next" button leading to that screen won't do anything. I had GMail working before the new ROM update just fine. (sorry for the slightly off-topic posts)
Sorry yanathin, was just trying to help.
I keep looking and post if I find anything.
biggie ups to you, summiter
so i'm a pansy, and i dinna have the brass ones required to futz with my stock cingular 8125... until this came along. just finished popping on the official qtek rom, and things appear to be running swimmingly. will mess around more later because i want a2dp so i can stop carrying my logitech dongle around, but thas neither here nor there.
excellent, EXCELLENT post. thanks much, chief.
EDIT: i got mine all set up, and i have to reflash, but i don't even care, because you're awesome in the first place for getting this up, and awesome again for fixing it on-the-spot-like. biggie ups again. downloading again now =)
awesome, im gonna give this a shot soon

I think I know what the problem is - gimme a few minutes to check things out and I'll upload a fixed installer.
Thanks soo much for the new rom package
I just finished loading my apps back on the cingular 8125, and it all works great, and much faster than the stock cingular rom. Exellent Work!

That would be wonderful if you could fix it... Aside from the ugly pasted Cingular logo on the Phone screen and Incoming Call pop-up box (I love it when Cingular just "pastes" their logo on things, no matter how it looks :x), this ROM is darn near perfect!

Is this a definate confirmed bug with the current installer? If it is I figure I should wait because I use my mail on the road everyday. If anyone has more info - please let us know. Thanks for creating this ROM and for looking at it again---as someone who has been afraid of updating but really anxious, this is really exciting.

It was one of the Cingular cab files. Apparently there was some issue with MMS and Cingular had a cab file that applied some sort of hotfix. Well this hotfix isn't needed with the AKU2 ROM and all it did was break mail. I've removed that portion of the offending cab file, repacked, and I'll upload the fixed installer afer I finish one more round of double checking. I've deleted the old one off the ftp, so when you see the 2.17 installer back up it will be the fixed version.

The fixed installer has been uploaded. Use the original link in the first message of this thread to grab it.
My appologies to those folks who got their devices all set up and have to reflash.. :?
that worked out great! my 8125 was acting all retarded and not picking up any signal at all for about 8 hours and after i installed the upgrade package, it worked like a charm. anybody else have any problems with the 8125 dropping connectivity completely?

Were you using the original stock ROM when you had these issues?
I have 4 Wizards, and 3 of them had problems locking up and losing signal with the original Cingular ROM. Cingular blames the problem on bad SIMs. After flashing to AKU 2 I've had no problems with any of the devices, so the update is either handling flaky SIMs better or Cingular was taking the easy way out of the problem. haha
So i was just poking around the FTP site looking for some things for my phone and i came accross this file here (cingular-ExtROM.zip). now im not very smart but if i understand this correctly, this is the customization that runs after you do a hard reset on your phone with shipped OS/ROM. If this is the case how can i piece this apart to find out which ones i need to just have the GPRS/MMS settings install via cab. That would make life alot easier lets say if i want to use WM6 or a non Cingular ROM.

The Cingular GPRS/MMS cab files are posted in more than one place on the forum already. You can save yourself some work by searching for them vs. trying to pull them out of the ExtROM file. The search function sucks but it will find those if you play around with it.
See thats my problem, I love you all and you are all a great deal of help. Thanks in advance since this may hurt someones feelings. Searching this forum, as awesome as it is, is more of a pain. Ive read most of the main posts trying to find the answer to my question, but it appears that some posts spiral off in other directions rather than that of which it was originally posted. People here are very nice and help alot, but it makes me confused when i cant find it and everyone says search the forums. LOL. I guess this is just me venting frustration at WM6 not having my settings already there LOL.

Search for the following two specifically:
P_Conn_CWS_APR12_Wizard.cab for GPRS
cingular_mms_964.cab for MMS
Both of these are included in posts and should be easy to find - unless (as I have seen folks write - really!!) you believe that "search" means "read".
If you flash WM6, you may also need ARCSoft too.
Custom-mms1-install-for-mms_733.cab - This CAB installs the MMS folder in Messaging
Cingular_mms_946.cab - This CAb installs MMS settings
P_Conn_CWS_APR12_Wizard.cab - This CAB installs your GPRS settings
Here's the catch: If you are trying to use these settings on WM6, you'll have to download the Arcsoft MMS cab to get it working. Sorry, but I dont have that one handy.

Well first of all, most people probably just didn't answer because this question should have been a new thread in the rom DEVELOPMENT forum.
Second, to get split sms/mms you only need to install an older version of archsoft mms, like the one in my cabs folder linked in my signature. Make sure to soft reset immediately before you install the cab.
I never liked palm threaded text messaging, so i can't tell you if it works on wm6.1 roms, but all WM6.1 roms have threaded messaging already.
Both of these answers could have easily been found using the search function on the site.
tramane, i personally can't help you on this but i do know that Dutty has done this from some of his roms if you want to check there or contact him for some help. If he is able to help you out please post here so others can see what needs to be done.
I too like the split SMS and MMS but ever since i stopped using Dutty's roms i haven't had that and i've learned to deal with it. Although i have a PIM backup that i can only get the MMS from if i have those two split so yeah please let us know.

No disrespect
But I DID that
Thats what I said i my post
Im no super noob, i been flashing hacking and unlocking for a minute
I just wasnt posting,
But all in all, from what i gather noone has been able to get the palm app working on kaiser, which baffles me. Why would it work on the hermes?
Im assumin becuase the palm and hermes have OMAP processors
And when the mms function checks for available emory to complete the operation it fails and gives an OUT OF MEMORY error
IMHO the palm app kills the wm6.1 on pure speed
ITS MUCH FASTER
But im gonna try again to install arcsoft mms 4.2.8.1 and see if that works
I wasnt quite sure if this belonged in development/hacking or the rom section, So my apologies on location
THANKS for the info!!
I LOVE THIS PLACE

Well to begin with, i meant it shouldn't be in the rom development, lol, but i think they moved it anyway to software.
I know there was a palm sms/mms app that was used on WM6.0 for the kaiser, but i never used it on WM6.1. I know many people used it cause it threaded the messages. You could try to hunt that down, just make sure you disable threaded messaging in kaisertweaks first just to be safe. Like i said, i've never tried it. If i find the link then i'll hook you up with it in a bit.

Thanx Scotchua
Hey i installed the new ROMeOS
it has split ms/sms
So i installed the palm threaded and use the palm for texting
And the wm6.1 default for mms
Works so far
There arent any wm6.0 roms left are there?
becuase there are speed enhancements with 6.1 correct?

Well I'd really assume it's just because everyone is porting stuff from the diamond/xperia/omnia/raphael and all those are only wm6.1.
Also nobody wants to cook something old when there's something new. Plus they did add some enhancements related to screen rotation...mostly it's just the new and shiny thing...i never used wm6.0 much so i don't know.
This cab will turn your program's folder from 3 column to 4 column. Just install the .cab and reset and your in buisness..
Nice. I like it a lot. Thanks for sharing.
Is this like Scotchua's Cab that does the similar thing?
Looks Good Though!

Yup doesn't work on Dutty's ROM
works fine on L26 Throttlelauncher beta6.0 ROM.

Interesting,
NATF's Rom Is "almost" a ATT stock ROM.
I'm curious as to whether this doesn't work on HTC stock ROMs.
NATF or KD8NS do you know if there is some sort of CAB Security Reg setting that could be causing this?
hey everyone. I flash EnergyROM two days ago, and I'm facing a rather important bug that trouble me, I can't add a MMS server from Messages - All Messages - menu - Settings - Options - MMS server, when I click "new" to add a new MMS server, there is not any response, nothing happens. I wonder if some other guy who flash the same ROM is facing the same problem and how can I fix it? THX very very much!
Here is my machine's information, SE X1 with EnergyROM KOVSKY 20090914 StandardM2.5.
Shouldn't you ask this in the EnergyROM thread rather than start a new thread?

I'm sorry but There are too many replies in EnergyROM thread..
i m having the same problem, but a little bit different, i can set up the mms server, but it does not work in any way, i was searching in registry and found many entries with HTCs servers, cingular servers, but i m brazil, and cant put the mms to work, even changing tre registry entries, but as i dont know very well how to manipulate the registry its still not working, both ways sending and receiving
MMS Issue with Energy ROM
Yeah.. I totally love this particular rom of all the ones out there and picture messaging hasn't worked for me either.. I'm U.S.-ATT
I've actually been sending via email as a work around because I like the rom that much.. Hope this does get resolved...
That problem is due to the leo message app? I have never really got mms working properly when using different roms with it cooked in. Try setting up the connection manually.
Well, i had already tested the jack4.x rom, MultimediaOS from KidDc(i think) and this perfect and bealtiful energy rom, and the only one that was able to send mms was the multimediaOS, but the ROM is ugly and still imature, no good for me...
Im using the operator TIM here in brazil...
if anyone has the solution...
I dont know too, if the energyROM already comes with arcsoft, or it attempts to send via other software(because in system/remove programs, it does not show nothing)
PS: in the multimediaOS the arcsoft version was 5.0.43.98, but neither google could find it...
here is the only solution :-
