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)

Help for search and Skype hack needed

HOWDY,
Tried to do search!
But the search dropdown dropped behind the big ad logo and couldn't type anything to search anything?
Got a 8125
Need SKYPE to work without crashing the device!
Tried almost every app on Skypes site and none work!
I know that stinking Cingular is most of the problem, then the S-L-O-W
processor is the rest of the problems!
Any hacks or links to how to overclock without bricking this stupid thing?
I should have stayed with dah X50 dell least I could use Skype and e-sword which neither work on this high dollar low satisfaction device!
I'm sure someone likes it BUT, I don't see why?
Thank you very much for this site, and for any links and help, like having the search dropdone OUTside the ad logo at the top of the page!

First of all thanks really!
went to the control panel and got to do a search for my problem and found that I have to overclock to 240 to get Skype to work!
So now if you could delete this request for help as I don't want to cludder up this forum and couldn't delete the post myself!
Yep Nomad your right should of and could of but didn't OPPS
Now i spent 4hour trying to learn hacking splicing dicing and still have a slow Stinklur
The thing keep deleting the programs on the 2GB SD card for the third time, in two weeks, and all the WORD docs that I loaded and the 1GB of songs that took 1 hours to load so this has to be more fun that I can stand!
Thanks again for your help!
Does this thing float? Just kidding!

New ROM from HTC and few words...

I had many devices from HTC in my live and i was really happy with it. Now i have expensive HTC Kaiser. When i bought it, was slowly so i gave chance HTC to change it. I checked the HTC e-club every day few times. It was hard, wait long time for new ROM for my Kaiser which should solve "most issues". Now new ROM is available to downoload in official HTC site like you know. I flashed it in first day when was available and what i can sat about it?
...It is my last device from HTC corporation.
Now i have little faster Kaiser then before flashing and threaded SMS. That is all. Even HTC Home and Camera software has old version. It it no longer this same corporation who created HIMALAYA or WIZARD.
I feel really disapoited when i can see my friend with much cheaper HTC Magician who can watch movie without any cuts and use TomTom with animated graphics, not slideshows.
I have hope that it is begin of end HTC Corporation and nobody more will be dispaointed by this company.
So... if you want buy some new devices from HTC corporation (Diamond, Raphael etc.) be careful beacuse this company really deceives their customers and you can get device with digitalizer problem, leak of graphic driver or some other/new isuues which we don't know yet and probably there will be no real solution for it.
So. I will wait for next epizode of this comedy "How HTC deceives customers" but no longer such actor but such a spectator.
My apologize for my English. I wrote it the best what i can.
Ok. I hereby introduce you to the flaming..........
poor you .... good luck at another company
uhuh ... just another copy
HTC is not at his mistake
the mistake is yours... why?
just copy this from another of mine stupid logic:
just consider buying a DUAL VVT-i engine car but only the fact that THE BREAK IS IN IT'S PRODUCTION STATE IS SEMI ON because the company didn't licensed it to go above 20mph!!!!
and another 80's car just past you away... how was that feel???
sure your car is comfy and looks good (for who bought kaiser of course) ... but u can't use it NORMALLY you think it's normal, because the car COMPANY thinks it's NORMAL THAT WAY
so ... HTC fails me and many other (as far as I know of)
Lol!!
redundant threads with the same posts xD!..
this is new O:!
well..
xD..
we must, yes MUST , do something better than blaming flaming whatever-ing HTC.
If HTC cant We can .
come on, this is a DEVELOPERS community...
so there are 2 ways..
1. Keep doing what we are doing right now (get angry with a company that WILL NEVER EAR US)
2. Help the Developers here to make a SOLUTION to the problem.
oh yes, and sorry for my bad english xDU, i am a mexican guy, 18 yrs old that never had English learning by any school or method or whatsoever anything..
be a terorist and nuke htc ... lol

just saying what have to say.... same goes to that kid rite?
HAHAHAH ok ok xD!!
but its not neccesary to open another thread for that xD!
there are already like 20 threads talking about the same xDU..
really the same.. i saw that post in another thread!!!! xDD!!
PS: but the nuke idea is a good one O:
HTC This, HTC That! MS This, MS That! AT&T This, AT&T That!
With all that is going on with HTC and MS, I still fill my Tilt is exactly what I paid for! I'm going to patiently wait and see what AT&T will do if and when an updated ROM is released and move on from there.
Everyone has there own opinion and this one is just mine..... Not much more that I can do!
O: .. u're from Salt Lake City, i have family on there..
be a terorist and nuke htc ... lol

if course, especially if "the nukey kaiser" is used along with the GPS to ensure that the helicopter/s is well positioned above HTC R&D building and ofcourse using MMS to message everyone in the building to leave.... A-GPS added so the target is at only @1m accurate...
what else??? ... just nuke them!!! at least we know that no update will never come..

Wifi Problem and no Hard-spl

Look ive been around here for a long time and disregard the low post ive mastered the search button! My phone was stolen and now I have the stock T-mobile pro2 and its having serious problems. I cant get Hard-spl to work both ways and Oliopro seems too busy "really i can bet he is" to reply me with a solution. Ok heres the problem my wifi takes forever to connect and before it does it say the key is incorrect when its not! NOW even when it does connect it still does not work and i do not have a data plan! So im stuck with a manufactured brick with no solution. Anyone can help me with another kind of Hard-spl so i can flash rom and see it its just a software issue! I really cant wait another week sending this back to T-mo just for a small problem as this.
I've read a lot of posts regarding people having issues with Hard SPL and most of the time by making the small donation and getting whatever version that is "paid" seems to fix that problem.
Something to think about for sure if you've exhausted all other possibilities
Sounds true i just wanted to see if anyone had a fix to the wifi problem ive been having. Most guys on this forum are nice but seriously team iphone has won me over im just plaing around and doing reviews here and there so im not up to 1 paying for something i wont use for a while....and even if i do i always switch units. 2 letting something be called a donation and then say its a minimum! I hate to be rude but im old, thats pretty stupid! you charge! AND then ask what you throw on top! IM SORRY but things like that piss me off....my opinion....NCRG has gotten over $50 from me in the last year because i love his work.....charging is something we developers just dont do! and if you are the at least admit it! Thanks for the help^^^and advice but ill look around if nothing well then bad review on the way!
You say that you have been around for a long time, then you already know a few things.
- Post hardspl questions in the hardspl thread.
- Be detailled with your problems. How can you expect that we can help you with installing hardspl when all the info that we get is "it does not work"....
So please post your question in the hardspl thread and be detailled. Post the steps that you did and then we can help you

Hello ;)

Hi all,
So I joined XDA and I guess I'm going to say that I'm a noob, and thats fine lol, but also smart in some ways...
sooooooo.. I'm 14 (and going to be 15 soon) and I have a ton of hobbys like building things with electronics, SDR (software defined radio), art and other...
I have a sprint galaxy note2... and an amazon fire kindle.. that I don't usually use
--------------------------
Now why I joined XDA:
--------------------------
reason1(or the c++ 0 lol)- I sorta failed flashing custom ROM and now have some problems that I don't think anyone has had, but I should search before I post that... now some of the problem I have seen posted, but theres more..... (so I have this problem... cause I went "my way" that actually worked, but also didn't at the same time lol)
reason2/1- to get help I guess
reason3/2- to maybe help someone else? that's if I can.. lol
..........yea, I dont know what else to include here.... lol
Just be cautious of the attention you may get. Not all help will be helpful. They try and keep the malious threats out but its never all gone. If you have any desire to advance your skills I'd suggest getting a Telegram account. There are a number over ethical and not so ethical hacker groups. If you do get an account look up mine and I will show you around. Stay Safe
