yes none of the roms up there have the changes... the one i will release in a few days does.
Are you suggesting I will have to install a whole new ROM?
Or just an update? Don't forget, I have a G4 model if that matters at all.

no.... microsoft provides a cab for dst changes ...in fact there is one somewhere here in the site.
OK, sorry buddy, I'm now more confused...
Your last reply reply seems to conflict with your first reply.

what im saying is that none of the roms currently have the settings implemented into them.....
all you got to do in your case is look for the cab file with the dst changes and install in your device,and you are done.

Oh, ok. Thanks.
I had actually DL'd the file from Microsoft, but it didn't want to install.
Have you or anyone else tried it?
It would be nice if someone would actually include the link in this thread for others to find more easily also.

I am using the WM6 MB version and when I woke up this morning my G4 MDA had updated on its own. I even got a window like I get with the PC saying the time had been updated.
I didn't use the .cab in this thread. Can I assume I am good to go?
Dave
That is a GOOD assumption!
Mine did the same thing, and I hadn't installed the cab either.
Seems to me that WM6 has the new DST rules built in
I don't think you need the cab.
I did the following experiment.
Go to the clock and choose 2 timezones like Los Angeles and Berlin.
Change the date to March 10th: you will have 9 hours difference.
Between March 11th and 24h: 8 hours difference.
From March 25th: 9 hours difference again!
My conclusion is that WM6 knows about the new dates... may be not all of them, but at least US vs. Europe.

eluth.
Wow! Brill!!!
Still a problem with WM6 + ActiveSync
Beyond what I described in my previous post, I still have a problem with ActiveSync + WM6 and the DST stuff.
I'm in California (GMT-8) and we are already in Summer Time.
I have the patch installed in Windows.
When I sync the PDA with the PC, the clock of the PDA is changed back 1h, like the PC "thinks" the PDA's time zone is GMT-8 (when the PC's time zone is GMT-8+1DST).
In other words, when it's 6pm, ActiveSync puts the PDA to 5pm!
Then all the appointments are also back-dated by 1 hour...
I tried this without any patch as well as with the microsoft Update for 2007 Daylight Saving Time.cab in this thread (which by the way is only adding key below): SAME RESULT. It does not work :-(.

New Cingular Rom? 2.06.502.3
I was over at HOFO and saw that our good cingular friend posted this...... austin_boy Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4 AT&T 8525 supports now PTT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New ROM release ( today ) supports PTT ROM version 2.06.502.3 Radio version 1.33.31.00 Anyone know anything about this? YOU WANT PROOF...HERE'S YOUR STINKING PROOF...http://howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103517 JUST KIDDING
Do you have a link to the source of your post? I am curious.
htc.com support download is showing the same ROM as the old one.

I asked for sources in the thread, or at least a screen shot of the device. I'll leave this up to the experts - I am just a lurker after all. PS, this site rocks!
DIDN'T sleuth or someone extract the PTT application (not the hack to change the functionality) from a future ROM? Or was that a device he got it from. Either way it atleast let us know the rom is out there.

Sounds exciting! 2.06 is AKU3.3 I think?
what time (well range) on Monday is it over in the US at the moment? If cingular releases the update tuesday I would like to be awake tonight
6pm west coast, 9pm east coast edit: Cingular website post has often lagged behind official release. The 8125 update was delayed then even got pulled once because the ruu was defective. I'd almost expect the rom to get uploaded here soon though...
Sleuth255 said: 6pm west coast, 9pm east coast Click to expand... Click to collapse Thanks Sleuth, I am eager to wait, so I guess I will have to catch up on some prison break episodes while waiting for 9am Tuesday... One question, as cingular doesnt have video call, is it possible to enable it in a cingular rom?
yep. Just load up the TyTN extrom. Then get rid of the green stuff.... I'm not sure which particular cab loads the video call version but IIRC it's easy to figure out if you just want to load the part that matters. This worked just fine on the original Cingular rom so it should work with aku 3.3 but ymmv However, your hardware video call button will be dead. No big deal since it never did anything more than the green button right next to it anyway... What's important is that the phone app will have the "Video" soft button.

Click to collapse Thanks for that, So if the useless hardware video button is dead, is there a method to assign it to another function, e.g. TOMTOM? I havent performed a detailed search as I havent had the need to do it (yet).
I was unsuccessful at trapping that button when I tried. Not a big deal but it did irk me a bit when I was running the Cingular ROM tho...
yeh, i think it will annoy me too, i am a bit of an aspie when it comes to gizmos.

Thats the AKU3.3 HTC rom released on here yesterday. In Swedish only flavour though.... hopefully not long before the AT&T cingi release for us english speaking folk.

i can say that it hasnt hit today yet... i have been using internet owl to monitor the code on the support page, and if/when it ever gets changed i will get an email to let me know... i have it check once an hour. not trying plug the program, but it really is a neat little app for tracking web pages for changes from your pc. This is the section of code i am monitoring from that page: Code: <li class="linkListMore">Download</li> and whenever internet owl see's that code has changed it emails me
I think its funny that the HTC 8525 support pages says 3125 in the title...but thats just me..
What rom are you using, and where is it now?
hey all! i'm currently waiting for my 3125 to make it to my doorstep (it shall be my backup until i get my 8125 apart and determine which lcd screen i need to buy to fix it -- don't let truck tailgates come down on your lcd screen, you'll get angry...) so, what roms are doing what for people? so far, i've been able to dig up scattered around the net (which is funny, considering the m$ note on the ftp about no devices on the market have wm5 offered, so its proprietary now, take down and destroy....): ruu_star100_1.02.251.1_qtekeur_ship_r2.exe (think its the buggy one, missed calls and all that) ruu_star100_2.4.502.0_02.45.30_cws_ship.exe (htc support's current (illegal?) offering for the cingular/at&t customers) ruu_star100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_qtekeur_ship.exe...
I'm sort of in the same situation as I have a 3125 on the way to replace my 8125... I'm going to use the "RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship" ROM as it seems to be the latest available and I was able to pull it off the FTP last week. I'd still be interested to know what everybody else is running though
i'm also using the "RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship" ROM and don't have any problem, stability, not too slow...
yeah im using the Qtek8500 ROm RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship On my Cingular 3215. This is the only clam shell WM5 device in the world yet it gets no love. No one doing new ROMS or anything. I have the HTC Wizard and I swear they come out with new ROM every week, sometimes more expecially with the whole WM6 ROms.
hmmm. i've been scanning through both xda and spv forums to figure out the best way to go about cooking up a rom. christ, xda is a mess to look through, but so far i think maimach's tools may do the trick. at least the thread seems to give hope : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294489 as to how to pull the nk.nbf or nb out of the rom.exe, i'm retarded (extract it with winrar someone said... ), this thread could work too...- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=238945 i've been looking into this for a few days, and my head is starting to hurt (should go medicate...) anyone else have any suggestions as to how to go about?

Anybody?? BTW, love this phone!
I've answered my own question.... plenty of apps here, including ClearVue and some other cool stuff: http://surrealnetworks.com/mpx/SDAapps.htm
I can't seem to find this ROM on the ftp server anymore ftp://xda:[email protected]_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship.exe. Can someone please uplaod this again, I want to put it on my new 3125 sexy phone )

Thanks a bunch donshula, I am downloading it right now.
So, what are the differences between the 3.6.251.0_02.67.30 and the 2.4.502.0_02.45.30 one? And why are so many people using the 3.6.251.0_02.67.30 one instead? I've got the 2.4.502.0_02.45.30 as from Cingular and can't say I've had problems... Would installing the 3.6.251.0_02.67.30 one cause issues because it has some different hardware?
insomnia said: Thanks a bunch donshula, I am downloading it right now. Click to expand... Click to collapse No probs, I have the Cingular base ROM as well if you ever need to go back to it. thelostsoul - I wouldn't be able to tell you the differences between the ROM's but generally, the newer the ROM, the more bug fixes and better stability is my guess. I do it anyway because I love to fiddle ! A downside of the non-carrier ROM's is that they don't always have the same software; 3.6 doesn't have XpressMail and the ClearVue suite for example. Oh and no issues putting the 3.6 ROM on a Cingy 3125. They share the same base hardware components from what I understand. A few of us have done it without issue (if you follow the instructions properly) and the 3125's actually have more ROM than the Qtek 8500 so no worries on space.
how come I am getting invalid vender error when I am trying to install that firmware? I ran surreal networks app utility and rebooted.
Doesn't sound like you went through the full application unlock process. I followed the guide in this post to the letter (#2) and it worked. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292936 One thing I found was that when doing the regedits in step 1, your initial registry entries might not be the same as his - doesn't matter, just make sure you change them to the values damird lists. Also for step 3, the file you want to download is the one at this link: http://nah6.com/~itsme/download/itsutils.zip - get one of the later ones and you have to start adding arguements to the pdocread command. Hope this helps
thanks! it worked and now I am running the Qtek Rom which seems less buggy and a little more responsive. Have not experienced the missed call problem either. Now all I need is some good software to fine tune this puppy! maybe some good ring tones!!!!

@ trini the sim unlocker i was thinking of errors out (the spv-tornado one). if you don't want to call cingular to get it unlocked (free?) or pay the 20-40 bucks US that various companies charge, all i can suggest is to keep a look out on spv-developers.com. some helpful **** there (that's the site that we can thank for our cid-unlock). i don't know how responsive they are in questions, considering i haven't been able to post there ever (i registered, but i never got my permissions to post topics enabled for some reason).... a good place to start looking there though is http://www.spv-developers.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=23 sorry for getting your hopes up... i've been spending too much time staring at the screen lately, going crazy in small steps
Comm manager
Hi all. Well, I made the jump from the Hermes to the Athena.....and it is a great device. One thing that I miss was the assortment of comm manager configurations that were available for the Hermes. My question is does anyone know of a 9 or 10 button comm manager that will work on the Athena? I would like to have the voip button to try to make all of it work with this unit also. If not, I could even deal with the current one if it wasn't GREEN !! Any help is appreciated.......Later

FUZE HW Keboard adding extra spaces when typing
Hi all: I've done extensive searches regarding this issue and have yet to find the same issue I'm having. I've recently began having issues with my hardware keyboard on my FUZE adding extra spaces when typing. I would hit the space bar at normal speed and extra spaces would be added as I'm typing. I wonder if this is a hardware or software issue and if anyone has had similar issues and what they've done to resolve it. My FUZE is about 6-months old and I use the HW keyboard quite a bit for texting/e-mails so I need the HW keyboard functional. I'm still under warranty but would rather not have to deal with AT&T customer service. Thanks everyone!!!

ponp74 said: Thanks Captain_Throwback. Just aout of curiosity, what does this cab do? Again, thank you. Click to expand... Click to collapse You know, it's funny. I had a much longer response typed initially, but XDA was giving me trouble, so after typing it 3 times, I went with a more brief response. Apparently (as discussed in the Kitchen thread), there's an issue with the input driver of the 21812 build ROM. I'm not sure if that's the build NRG was using on 6/13, but it's very possible. So, Da_G has included the CompIME.dll from a working build (in this case, 21731) in the kitchen to correct the error, which was isolated in that thread by pyrorob. So, I cabbed up the driver for my personal use with the newer ROM build (21815) in case this was still an issue. Since I just had it hanging out on my SD card, I figured I'd share it. So, to answer your question, the cab just replaces your existing CompIME.dll with the one from the 21731 build. Hopefully this will correct your problem.
Captain_Throwback said: You know, it's funny. I had a much longer response typed initially, but XDA was giving me trouble, so after typing it 3 times, I went with a more brief response. Apparently (as discussed in the Kitchen thread), there's an issue with the input driver of the 21812 build ROM. I'm not sure if that's the build NRG was using on 6/13, but it's very possible. So, Da_G has included the CompIME.dll from a working build (in this case, 21731) in the kitchen to correct the error, which was isolated in that thread by someone (if I find who, I'll refresh this post).

Click to collapse Thank you. I'm giving it a try and will report back. I hope this is the fix for me. I'll keep the cab on hand as well. Again, thank you. Edit* I checked the version and NRG is using Build 21812.5.0.50 so that may have been the issue in my case. Edit** I'm still seeing the same problem. I'm going to try a reflash of the stock FUZE and go from there when I get more time this evening. When flashing to a different/Stock ROM, do all the device drivers get update or just what the Chefs feel are necessary?

Click to collapse For custom ROMs, it is possible that the chef may change some of the drivers in the OEM/SYS folder. Try a different custom ROM (even a different build number) to confirm that the problem is specific the NGR 21812.5.0.50 build. For stock ROMs, the content will be what was released by the Manufacturer (HTC/AT&T). If the problem occurs with a stock ROM, I would be inclined to suspect faulty hardware. HTH,
ponp74 said: Hi all: I've done extensive searches regarding this issue and have yet to find the same issue I'm having. I've recently began having issues with my hardware keyboard on my FUZE adding extra spaces when typing. I would hit the space bar at normal speed and extra spaces would be added as I'm typing. I wonder if this is a hardware or software issue and if anyone has had similar issues and what they've done to resolve it. My FUZE is about 6-months old and I use the HW keyboard quite a bit for texting/e-mails so I need the HW keyboard functional. I'm still under warranty but would rather not have to deal with AT&T customer service. Thanks everyone!!! ROM: EnergyROM 3.0 Phoenix 20090613 Radio: 1.14.25.35 with correct Rilphone If I'm on the wrong thread, please let me know... Click to expand... Click to collapse hi there, i got the same problem as well, and i think it's worse than yours, mine sometimes even appear the full stop symbol after i typed the spacebar button from my HW keyboard, and i am also using EnergyRom as well... try flashing other Roms and see whether the problem exist or not, because i think i din find a problem in other roms... but i am still sticking with EnergyRom as i think i got some idea not letting it shows that often now...
i have the opposite problem my spacebar is now not putting spaces when it should. i have to make sure i focus on the button press, just started happening this month and ive had it since november
I had the problem several times, I restored back to AT&T ROM and Radio, and did an XBM on it. Its a hardware problem. The Space and delete key can get hard to press, and when they do press, it does it multiple times.

Click to collapse I have a Touch Pro which I bought in October and the space bar on my keyboard started playing up too. It would miss spaces when i was typing away and sometimes would insert extra spaces. It was driving me mad. I took it back and had the keyboard replaced under warranty and it has been perfect since.

Click to collapse First thing's first - make sure you return the phone to stock specs (including stock SPL) prior to returning. The way the warranty exchange works is, you keep your phone, they send you a new (refurb) unit while you still have your existing phone, and when you get the new one, you put the SIM card in it, and use the packaging to send the old one back. That way, you're not out of a phone at all. I got mine the next day. Its a good system.

I can verify that it is not a ROM/Driver issue since my device is working fine. This is a hardware failure and needs a replacement device.

Supercid/App. unlock ... is there a way to check?
I have a Cingular 3125 I just bought to tide me by, since my 8525 took a dump, and would like to upgrade to WM6.1. I ran the application unlock program and went through the supercid process, but is there a way to check if the process/application was successful? I didn't receive any alert saying such. BTW: I'm using a PC with Vista Home Premium. What is the most stable WM6.1 ROM available for this phone? I know there have been bluetooth issues with some, which I can't have, since I use my phone a lot while driving (work related). Also, I'm really not put off too much by the WM5 OS, but I'd really like to have the threaded SMS back. Is there a stand alone application that would allow me to add this to WM5 (if I end up keeping it)?

Click to collapse I'm surprised there hasn't been any reply to your post in the months since . . . Yes, there is a little program you can run to verify application unlock - I can't remember the name of it or find it ATM. Yes, there is a threaded texting program, called Extreme Text - works very well. http://www.birdsoft.biz/extremetext.htm
Thanks for the response, but I'm pretty sick of this phone already. I haven't upgraded the OS to 6.1, but I can't see it being much better than it is. Wish my 8525 didn't chew through batteries like it does!

Well, I guess I could give it a try. I've flashed my 8525 several times and that was very easy. Sounds like this 3125 is a bit of a pain to flash. Would you mind clarifying the steps and recommending a 6.1 ROM?

Click to collapse I followed the steps in the first and third stickies: Application Unlock first, then CID Unlock. Particularly I followed the clear advice in post #12 of that thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1124770&postcount=12 Here's an amusing aside, RE: the build quality of this phone. I had loaned mine to my daughter's boyfriend, he set it on a table and lay down to take a nap. He heard it vibrating and ringing as a call came in, looked up and saw it vibrate itself right off the table and fall toward the floor. But at the exact spot it fell, there happened to be a glass full of water stationed - the phone fell kerplunk! right into the glass of water. He grabbed it out, pulled out the battery and SIM card, dried it the best he could, let it sit a couple hours, then reassembled. It works perfectly! I have Erofich's 6.1 installed on that phone, this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374397 But I think I'm going to give DJ's 6.5.3 a try soon. Good luck!
Well, I've got to say "you were right." I flashed my phone with WM6.1 and it made a world of difference. I'd be interested in checking out the WM6.5, but I haven't been able to find a version that'll run on this phone. You mentioned something about DJ's version; where might I find that? BTW: Thanks for your input on this thread.
