I would if I felt doing so would give the right message but we've been asked to only vote amongst devices we've actually owned/used and that narrows it down to one device with incomplete driver support and an 'update' which effectively breaks GPS for me. NO WAY!!!!
My vote is in too.
The Kaiser is #4!!! Long live the KING!!!!

Sorry for posting here but the systems not letting me PM you MACkjam. Where'd you get that ROM from? It's not shown on the Kaiser ROM wiki. Is it native HTC or an operators provided ROM? Please PM me back

Hi there Flying Kiwi. Sorry, I have never used the pm function.
My TyTN II is stock standard from Vodacom South Africa. I got it in January last year. I am not sure if it is native HTC or Vodacom. I can only imagine that it is native HTC, but Vodacom is very fussy about stability of devices and they test handsets thoroughly before they make them available. Mine is probably one of the most reliable and stable roms available for the TyTN II.
I have never flashed any roms etc and I have not had most of the problems experienced by users here. I haven't even updated the operating system to wm6.1 just in case of problems. I like leaving the main things as they are. I have only customised today screen etc and I have many apps, games, tools etc. I believe in the philosophy of "don't fix it if it isn't broken"
I hope this helps.
Regards,
MAC
I voted Kaiser, mainly because there was a huge explosion in this forum when the Kaiser got introduced, I think that it made HTC into one of the "mainstream" phone manufacturers today.
Please don't x-post to another thread you are running.
Thread closed.
Thanks

Dear Kaiser users,
After many of you aked me for making WM6 ROMs for Kaiser, I am now thinking about it but I wouldn't like to such a work if there is not a serious demand...
So I would like to ask you (especially former Hermes owners who used my ROMs) if you are really interested (or not!) in having a Kaiser version of my last ROMs (and eventually some multilanguages versions):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1696394&postcount=1
Yes! Definitely interested!
Schaps,
Not a former Hermes user (TyTN II is my first HTC unit) , but I've seen enough of what you've done elsewhere to clearly answer: YES, Please!!
Cheers,
Søren
Hell yea!
I've been flashing my old tytn 1 soooo many times and ive always ended up with your latest stable release, i love everything but the color but thats something i can live with or change myself.
to be honest i still havent flashed my tytn 2 due to knowing myself and how i get carried away my tytn 2 still feels "new" and im not sure if there is a swedish official rom to go back to in case of trouble that would result in sending my phone for warranty.
but then again... still browsing this forum atleast a couple of times a day i know it wont be long until i put it i hard-spl mode and flash myself untill insanity.
please shaps keep up your good work for the hermes and atleast through us at kaiser a few breadcrums every now and then - that would make atleast me happy
cheers
//jonte
I am a previous Schaps ROM user... & YES is the answer
Schaps..... we had some communications in the past, I even donated.. I would donate again when my means change very soon.... i just received my first Tilt from AT&T (HTC 8925). Looking forward to tweak this puppy up...
As I am a ROM junkie, I always appreciate and welcome a new ROM cooked by experts like yourself.
I know you have just released the 8525 Hermes 4.2.0 ROM...Do you have one for the Kaiser II ( HTC8925) yet? Please post as soon as possible.
Thanks for all the work.
We are very happy to hear that Schaps is in Kaiser team!!! And we surely say yes to a cooked ROM from Schaps!!!
Shaps definitely after tour breakthrough in the hermes community can't wait even from a small time cook as me. I would really love to test your roms. and also hope you can find a easy way around the xip porting for kaiser

I have not yet got my hand on Kaiser or Cingular 8925 but it in mail and first thing that i want to do is Unlock it then flash with your ROM. Your ROM's are the best that I have ever used. Please continue good work.
Hi all,
Sorry for the noob question. I just got my AT&T Tilt and I just want to make sure that I am in the right forum. Is this the forum for AT&T Tilt (AT&T 8925)? I've search around, it's either this forum or the Hermes forum. I appreciate anyone points me at the right direction.
Thanks a bunch!
forum
The 8925 is a Kaiser so you're in the correct forum.
The AT&T Tilt is just a re-brand of the HTC Kaiser phone. AT&T just names it the Tilt because it's hip and cool and something they can put a (TM) next to on packaging.
Thanks....
ceelo2007 & jon_k,
Thank you....awesome!
They should update the names that we call some of these devices so new people can see. Like instead of just 8525 it could be "At&t/Cingular 8525". You know?
heh...
I spent quite a bit of time figuring out if this was the right area at first too. They really need to add Tilt to the models next to Kaiser....

The naming conventions for the forums seem to be by HTC development codenames.
XDA-devs deals with many different models of HTC devices which have been re-branded by many different providers and depends on the source and region of your particular device and service.
So this site tends to use the pre-release codenames to refer to all devices of the same general hardware family. Hence the Tilt can be called a TytnII or a Kaiser or a Vario III, 8925...etc... with only minor diffs in hardware/software.
Why can't they have all the names known for the device so there would be less confusion? (Start with the new ones and go down from their)

To avoid posts from people who are incapable of identifying what device they have. As well as "their" from "there". lol
Ahh, you caught me. . ., also there already is .
*I* know there is a wiki but do others?
Maybe they know but there not sure if it's over they're -------> or over their <------.
My opinion is that these forums are pretty technical, and if you can't properly identify your model, you probably don't belong here. I know from my expertise in Motorola modding that I have been PM'ed countless times by 12 year old kids that decided they were going to mod, hex edit, or flash their phone, bricked it, and then PM'ed me for a magical fix before their parents found out.

Other than the name differential, I believe the Euro Kaiser has a camera on the front as well as the back for "video call". The tilt has the regular one in the back.

Old news ! Not nice to start a " new " thread for something we had not expected anyway.
Yeah, I know its old news. But even so, a large amount of people do not know this, so its still worth posting.
Do you realize what board you're on? Don't generalize, you have been left behind, not me. I've been running WM6.1 on my Tilt since the winter when it first leaked and have been running the lasted build since Monday.

Everyone here knows this and it is not worth posting as you will find out.
No, I have browsed through some threads and it seemed that a decent amount of people had not realized that only the HTC-Branded devices had recieved the update.
People who read stuff already knew for like a month that the update would probably be only for HTC branded devices, I guess you don't.
Anyways, it doesn't mean there won't be official updates for you, just that your company, whichever it is, will have to customize things first before releasing a rom, especially adding all their bloatware.
Oh, and about accelerated graphics, please, noone got them, it's not that you're a special target.
I know that there were some "fixes" but no drivers, and it has been said that ATT users will get it, just when they get ready to release it after adding all their crap.

I am here to help , what was the question ? I just heard a rant that the mods have said ( continually ) is not appropriate for these forums. If you read the official announcement from HTC when they announced the TYtN upgrade, they said that they had no plans to release an upgrade fer the Tilt in the near future. Why is this rant important to this forum?
What are you talking about denco? This is not even a rant, it is a statement. I did not mean for it to be a rant and I did not mean for people to mistake it as one. I merely meant to inform people that only the branded HTC devices got the update. It appeared as though alot of people had not realized this, or, at least enough for me to post. I can even show you some quotes if you need me too.
Denco, please look up the definition of 'rant'.
htc rom
Just talked to HTC. There is no 6.1 rom from them for the HTC phones (mine is the TYTN II) available anywhere on the globe.

I am not trying to entice the argument here, but i will add couple of things:
a) Most of the "regular" members here at xda already know that the tilt or any other branded version of the tytnII will not be getting the updates. (emphasis on regular).
b) none of the xda members really care about official updates as we have very gifted and talented chefs here that can port roms for us (and we are truly greatful for that) and seeing that the only diffrence between the TytnII and tilt is the front camera that shouldn't be a big deal.
c) drivers (which there aren't none) can also be ported. There are chefs already working on porting the diamond drivers over to tilt which runs vga.
Having said that i would like to thank you for the info ... but unfortunately its old news and no one likes repeatedly hearing old news.

Welcome to the ROM update for the AT&T Tilt. Please review the following prior to downloading and installing the latest ROM update (version 1.62.502.0) on your device.

I very nearly downloaded this one by mistake. I registered with htc but my phone S/N is not a real HTC device and was still logged in, but I managed to (mistakenly) download the file from that link without much issue.
That help?
That's still only 6.0..

I don't know who you spoke with but they were wrong; I just ran the HTC RUU (Rom Upgrade Utility) from the HTC e-club web site and the splash screen clearly states Windows Mobile 6.1. I have an HTC TYTN II and it works great.

The thing that puzzles me about this is the way the AT&T Tilt gets singled out as if it's special - in reality it's just one dozens of rebranded Kaisers around the globe, none of which have had an official update. I have a "Vodafone V1615", am I whining about where to download a Vodafone update for my Vodafone V1615? No, of course not, with the help of this forum it's been running the original HTC rom since October, and upgraded to the HTC 6.1 update a couple of days ago (before it was released by HTC in fact). So what's the problem?
The irony is the AT&T Tilt is (I believe) the only variant to have it's own section of the HTC website, and to actually have already had a rom upgrade back in February, albeit 6.0 only. Where are all the complaints about that from owners of the V1615, or the T-Mobile Vario 3, or the Orange Tytn II, or O2 XDA Stellar, or the "3" Tytn II, etc etc..?
Hi all,
Does anybody have the Xperia Vodafone UK ROM?
I know that this question has been posted on here numerous times, because I have sifted through the posts looking for this ROM. I have even contacted members of this forum personally to try and obtain this ROM. Sorry to post on this topic AGAIN, but I desperately need this ROM for warranty purposes.
Any help is very much appreciated.
The Dog
go to the search at the top of the forum
type in the words
xperia vodafone uk rom dumped
and see what happens.
alternatively look through the xperia roms and guides thread, maybe you didn't bother "sifting" past page 7 'cos it's on page 8.
Yea cheers for the info "Sherlock". Funnily enough that page already has an entry in my browser history...
The problem is that the link on page 8 does not work, hence the purpose of my original post.
Although your post did provide some useful information related to my query, next time do everyone and pull your head out of your arse (ass) before making a post of your own.

Listen very carefully.. I really don't like that attitude.
I took the time to rebuild the stock VFUK rom, i posted it.
The link does work, because I've just tested it.
It is on page 8 of the xperia roms thread, which points to here.
ftp://minftp.myftp.org/XperiaX1i/ROMs/VFUK-rebuilt/
The file is called RUU_signed.nbh
Now if you thought the link didn't work then you should of ;
a) said that you'd tried the link.
b) checked to see if anyone else had the problem,
c) if you had that page bookmarked then you'd know that I posted it, yet you didn't ask me for it
So next time as a new member I suggest you be a damn sight more polite!

hi i just recently purchased a touch hd telstra and am about to flash it with a 6.5 , there are a lot of talented people here with their own versions of 6.5, is there one that is the most standard rom with everything included and which one would that be?
Goodness me, this genre of question is asked two to three times a day, do some of your own investigating and research and in future follow the forum guidelines, dont be so arogant!

If you have to ask, you are probably better off sticking to the default ROM you phone comes with.
i suggest to make a sticky with the title 'NO WHICH ROM TO USE TOPICS HERE!!!!'
but not even that will stop some ppl from posting that ****.
You could even use the word KNOW instead of NO
I have a feeling this thread will be closed soon.
No ROM is the "best". Each excel in some ways and its up to you to decide whats best for you. Its a bit like asking someone for some good music. they will only tell you what they think is good, not necessarily what is good for you.
what does this mean? youre gonna have to try them all and see which you like most (shouldnt take more than an hour or so as there arent that many)
