i was wondering if anyone has an up to date list of the best ROMs for the Kaiser. I recently purchased a one (AT&T Tilt) tried to do the Sim unlock thing but ended up paying 40 bucks to do it online... but anyway... I really want to get the ball rolling and mod my phone.... any comments are appreciated just as long as they are relevant to the title of the thread.
Wrong section mate, try heading over to the ROM section......
Ya one of the mods will probably move this thread and maybe yell at you, or maybe both!
hopefully they close this thread instead of moving it.
This is a matter of personal preference.
You need to read-up on the barious Roms and decide which one best fits your specific needs.
Thread Closed.

I'll be getting a Cingular 8125 on friday of this week, and I'm all set to upgrade/tweak it out. I should be getting my 2gb miniSD card that day as well, if all goes as planned.
Because of this, I wanted to ask a question: What is the current best ROM out for the device? I had heard on HoFo that one was out that makes everything slightly faster and enables push mail. That was about 30 pages ago in the mega thread over there.
Also: Why not put together a compendium thread of what ROMs work on what devices and what the benifits are? Right now things are confusing for someone who just started reading. If one exists, sticky that bad boy. Maybe a generic guide could be added as well? I'd love to help where I can.
Keep up the excellent work guys...
This is my first post.
I have owned a 8125 (wizard) for a year. I'm getting the tilt (399 from premier) soon. Before I do this I have a few questions if those who own can answer:
Is there a way to put the HTC Rom on the Tilt?
If so, How does it run?
Can you unlock the GPS? If so, does can you use Tom Tom? Can I use the GPS for free without using Telenav?
I really only care about the GPS, because my 8125 is pretty similar other than that.
Let me know please!

Just go to the Kaiser upgrading section to find the HardSPL unlocker and the Kaiser ROM to flash.
The GPS on the Tilt is already unlocked so you can use it with any software or data-based navigation program. . . no Telenav subscription needed.
Try reading the Kaiser forum before taking up space with questions that have already been asked about a million times...

Try being a bit kinder to the newbies. After purchasing a Kaiser I have been back on the boards for the first time in 2+ years and despite 5 straight days now (probably 20-25 full hours reading) this info was new to me.
What is also new to me is the elitist attitude of some members. This is a forum, and the last time I checked this meant it was a gathering place for people to share info. Some people will always be new and ask questios that others find pedantic. I see this pattern on every forum I have ever visited. If you can tell from the topic that it is something that has already been covered, don't read the post, but if you do go to the trouble to read it, AND make a comment, then at least make a helpful suggestion such as, "Try searching on XXX". This not only helps the OP, but others who happen to be "in the same moment" and would like more info too.
sorry but even as a new member I agree with austinsnyc...if the topic is already there, do a search on the forum first and look for maybe 5 minutes before you post redundant questions. This isnt about an elitest attitude, its about being considerate of everyone on the forum and not flooding it with crap that is already there.

Yeah me too. But I usually do search.
It wasn't the suggestion to search that I found objectionable, it was the way is was said. It's just not a very nice way to welcome a new poster. I am sure we have all asked stupid questions from time to time. No need to be rude about it. That was the elitist part. If you have em, imagine of your kid's teacher said to your child on the first day of school. "That was a stupid question, stop wasting our time."
Sadly no one came to my defense. Still say I am making a bad call on the change in tone of the forum? Rhetorical question, not looking to start a flame war. My last word on this is to ask others to please be polite. Nuff said.
Unless someone is new to forums (and the internet) in general, they should know to search before asking something, but that doesn't mean older users need to be a jerk if they don't.
Also, sometimes information gets buried in large threads and even though you may use the search, it can be hard to sort through all of the results or a very large thread to pull together all of the information. Sometimes, it's really helpful if a knowledgeable user can paraphrase it all in one place.
Thank you newbie 2. Instead of searching through thread after thread i asked. Your answer on the unlocked gps part of the phone was all i needed !
In wolfs, defense....I've been pouring through the kaiser upgrading sections and just when I think it is safe to put the HTC rom upgrade in my tilt, I read posts like "when will they make this for the tilt?". I'm relatively sure that this upgrade works on the tilt, but am even more sure that I would never know what to do if it didn't...nor would I know what to do if I had to put the AT&T rom back on if I needed to get warranty work done - like I might, since mine absolutely will not beam files via bluetooth right now. I've put a bunch of tweaks on my tilt and love em...thank you everybody sooooo much! But currently am 'ascairt' to put the HTC rom on.
Hi there,
do we need a subforum for Wingusers only??
If so i would ask to create a new subforum...
Please vote for 1 week after that time I will delete this thread again....
Thanks
Daniel
it would be nice to have a area for wing specific threads, gets kinda confusing for what works with the wing and what doesnt
I remember as a newb it took me quite a while before I figured out that herald=atlas=wing and a subforum I think would help everybody out.
yess. took me so long to figure out its the same phone lol..
dam temobile and there renaming
I'd like to see a tmobile wing specific sub-forum as well.
Great idea. Being a newbie, it took me a while to get piece everything together....When I started out, I was on the other Wing forum and it took a while for me to figure out the whole Herald/P4350 thing...
pffft. No. There's not that much Wing-specific WM6 content here. It would be a waste and it would also look really empty...

I think that it would be helpful for new folks getting started.
I voted yes, but since david made the cab to fix keyboard for wing users Im not gonna cook wing specific roms. And all my roms will be posted in Herald wm6
I have voted no. My reasoning is that the most notable difference between the two devices are minimal (the keyboard mapping) which has basically been resolved by David Duprat. Although it may be a bit more organized, I think it would be a waste since the majority of the questions are not device specific. I would hate to have to jump between forums looking for an answer that could apply to all herald like devices.
But hell I'm flexible.

Ditto.......we've obviously all found it, why do we need a new forum with duplicate info?
I think if any we should ad another section under Herald (and possibly for other devices as well) that is dedicated to new roms and kitchens. This would clean up the existing forums quite a bit.

Agreed. There's no real reason. It's just going to slow down the production of new ideas since they'll be divided between two camps. It's the same device minus the keyboard driver.

The more I think about it, the more I want to take my vote back. Add one more to no and subtract from yes.
I voted Yes, just for the sake of clarity, and organized structure.
And it spares us many questions like : ''Will this work on my Wing/Herald?" wich,
even with David Duprat's solution wil be asked several times more.
Although the Herald Mobile 6 forum is already full of mixed stuff, it doesn't really matter that much.
still I think it's better

It works on both. The keyboard might not match, though...
But if they don't read the heading or the post that talks about it being a herald or wing item, why would they read the forum name? j/k
Personally, I think it would be ridiculous to open a new forum... Sure, it might make things "more organized" ... but its also going to be a pain in the ass... and besides the ROM, what other DEVICE SPECIFIC questions arise? NONE what so ever.
So you're going to split everyone and basically the only thing that's going to be happening in the new forum is a topic for Ivan's roms and a topic for ttran's roms...
I say keep it together, it makes more sense. I don't want to have to jump around yet another forum when the devices are the same, except for the keyboard problem, which has a solution now.
the only pro for me is - that noobs can find things more easyly.....
and at the moment 75% say yes (nearly 50 votes)
take it from a noob, it took me close to 2 weeks b4 i learned the herald was the wing p3 whatever it is... lol
im still totaly confused by all this
maybe instead of a new form just add WING to the title page
"Also known as: HTC P4350" is what it says
make it say
"Also known as: HTC P4350 / T-Mobile Wing"
maybe a well layed out sticky thred,
explaining the differances of each model of this phone
i run a few forusm myself and keeping things streamlined is a pain.
but this is a tricky one...
I agree with nyitalian718. Just rename the forum to Herald/Wing.
We'll be the only forum to have a non-HTC codename. hehe
I'm going with nyitalian718 and ivanmmj's opinion of adding all the known names of the Herald/Wing to the list just like in any other sub-forum.
It's not too much ask if a noob has to read some pages/stickies. All of us started like this and gain their knowledge.
At the end every major topic/problem has been dicussed at least once.
And the last thing I would recommend a new PDA owner is to void the warranty by flashing his device.
He should first get familiar with his PDA and then read the infos on this forum.
Papamopps and the core members of the Herald/Wing community did a great job on writing guides and tutorials on...let's say on everything
Long story short... i had a tilt, accidentally fell in a pool while intoxicated and some how got one back through warranty (if you wanna know more just ask me, i can share the story on how exactly i got the phone through warranty even with the moisture sticker being pink, i think i got lucky) anyways... so i got my tilt back and was gonna sell it because i purchased a nokia e90, but my love for the tilt made me want to change my mind.
i did have a chance to read about 2 hours worth on the new wm6.1 and new SPLs... having to be specific to roms to maximize performance....but i want to make sure i dont have a brick in my hands after taking such steps.
My situation:
At&t customer
At&t tilt(refurbished of course)
Basically just popped in the battery and got my contacts in there.
I want to be able to use cooked roms, most likely wm 6.1 but i wouldnt mind having the ability to use the older version roms as well. I dont know if this is possibly without having to change SPLs... is it?
Having said this is a AT&T phone, i would like to unlock it, sim unlocked good? if so, should i do this first because i believe i can only do it on wm6.0... what spl do i need to have?
Then i want to use cooked roms, but not to the extent where i will be flashing every week... i might flash 3-5 roms and then decide to keep the one i like best and not flash another for atleast a month or so.... which method would be the best for me? ( i do believe in donations, and will provide to creator of rom that i will use on a daily basis).
I am also ready to receive negative feedback from administrators if this thread is something i shouldnt be posting, and i want to say i am sorry if this is the case, if not, i would like to be lead to the direction of wiki and readmes on how i can go about doing what i need to do.
Thanks in advance.
Firstly, this has no business in "ROM DEVELOPMENT".
All of your questions can be answered in the wiki or the first couple of posts in this thread.
As for a rom, tastes vary, so you'll need to play around & find what you are comfortable with. Flashing regularly is not a problem if you get familiar with Sashimi, Tierman Auto Install & UC as explained by Sleuth.
Thanks, one question, before i flash a wm6.1 rom, should i have the new hardspl ? is that universal to all wm6.1 roms?
No more questions in this thread.
Sorry friend, you don't get another question. As was already explained you are in bad form in the forum.
Please have some respect for the other members of the forum, read the links in my signature and then read the forum. Your answers are here, you just need to find them.
Hey guys in having a hard time choosing between these. If you look them up they are very similar. Prices aside, which would you choose?
Thanks, DJ
Easy choice!
if you enjoy being locked in a small room with both your hands tied behind your back and no one to bring you food, you should definitely get the Oppo. If you enjoy the sun on your face and being free to roam about and use widgets and apps and launchers and whatnot, get the S6.
Hi there,
There are threads already established that are devoted to discussions about devices, please read, and if necessary, repost your question in one of these threads: The what should I buy thread or the The Device Suggestion Thread or the The Device Comparison Thread.
There are also several other discussion threads that you probably should review to help you. They are What phone do you wish you had? or
The Worst Android Device That You've Ever Had & Why or even this place that talks about The best phone you ever owned.
I will have to close this one. Thanks for understanding.
