Re: unlock Cingular 8125

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Ballgame:
Do I have to unlock my phone to upgrade to this new "official" release?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Ballgame:
Nevermind. I upgraded and it works great.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Edyhan:
can you post if you find any errors or something..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Ballgame:
The data connection will not go off when pressing the end button for three seconds. This is very possible a normal occurence. I'm not by any means an expert with this stuff. Thoughts?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Gator5000e:
This does not answer your question about the end key shutting off the data connection, but there is a hack that is available thru Tweaks2K2 (I am sure it is available without it but I don't know how to implement it) that places a disconnect button on the pop-up that appears when you tap on the data connection symbol (E w/ the 2 arrows) allowing you to tap it to disconnect. Works very well. Not one handed I realize but it works. Hope this helps somewhat.

Glitch is back

Started having wifi problems again with the 2.25 rom (not summiter's latest, but the one this thread started out with). Getting the "connectin lost" error message when trying to surf using wifi. GPRS works great, but wifi not at all. Just an FYI that all is not perfect with this latest unofficial cingular release. Anybody find a fix for this yet? Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] phimhongkong111:
could someone please repost the software

ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard/Roms/RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship.exe

because it relocate. Thank you.

Re: Glitch is back

Funny... I'm running the same thing and I use WiFi all the time. I'm having no WiFi issues at all.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] duman95:
I am on the fence on this new ROM. IF its AKU2.2 then I may jump on it. But since I have 2.17 on my 8125 now and it has been flawless for the last several weeks I am debating on jumping on this ROM.

If I can just flash over summiter's 2.17 rom I may take the plunge and go to the 2.23 ROM, after some you all do so first to drive out all the issues!!!!! You know there's gonna be issues.....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] irablumberg:
I hope this release fixes the password screen problem that version 2.17 has with Goodlink. I miss the new and improved features and performance, but can't run 2.17.

On the about screen, what is the build number? That will tell us if it is AKU2.0 (Ends in .2.0.0) or AKU2.2 (Ends in .2.2.0)....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cali0028:
Hum..here is the screen shoot that was give to me...so what you said is correct that it does have AKU2
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] PuPpYpWr:
cali0028 post it already you're kiling me :shock:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] amg212:
What a tease!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DanITman:
The original AKU2 buid I believe was 14847.2.0.0

This build looks like it is the new AKU2.2

Do you think you can get a copy of the ROM? What is taking so long to release it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] darkjedi:
the teasing and agony is so horrible :( but i know its not your fault...or is it???
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] summiter:
At least we know we'll soon have a ROM that allows for placing the clock back in the title bar.

I'll see if I can dig up all the AKU 2.2 changes/improvements and post 'em here.

Cali - do you *have* the ROM, or are you just posting screenshots that a Cingular employee (or friend of a friend of a friend of a guy that knows someone whos daughter dates the cousin of a Cingular employee)?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cali0028:
A close contact that I have with Cingular. But I wish he would send me the damn rom. He is really pissing me off at this point. I will try again. sorry guys i am tying..and trust me as soon as I get hold of it then I will post it. hopefully before it's released.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] summiter:
No worries Cali - I was just messing with ya. If you get it, you get it. If not, it won't kill anyone to wait for Cingular.

I was going to build some new custom ROMs this weekend, but I think I'll wait until Cingular releases this (or it gets out). It will be the first AKU2.2 ROM of all the carriers. Might be the first time Cingular has done something good. =)

For what it's worth, I've already tried checking for the ROM's presence on the HTC America site by trying different variations of filename. Like this:

RUU_Wizard_2231101_22311102_411312_Cingular_WWE_Ship.zip

RUU_Wizard_2231101_22311102_411312_CWS_WWE_Ship.zip

RUU_Wizard_2231101_22311102_411312_Cingular_WWE_Ship.exe

RUU_Wizard_2231101_22311102_411312_CWS_WWE_Ship.exe

It aint there..using any of those filenames anyway.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] paulesport:
Summiter I can't wait for your new cooked ROMs with the new upgrade.....speaking of which....can you make a ROM that can cook dinner....that would be just perfect :lol:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] nickcerda:
Yea I tried the same thing I used httrack to download the entire site and there was no remnents of a new cingular rom anywhere. In fact I think i will go try again right now.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] glitchsys:
Waiting anxiously...

Damn. And I just "upgraded" to summiter's latest 2.17 ROM w/ the works, the latest revised on 4/26. Now if Cingular releases this, gonna have to upgrade again and lose all my settings. heh. Probably well worth it though. Maybe SPB Backup will help me some.

btw.. regarding making dinner, in 1 of summiter's previous posts, he stated the ROM can make tater tots. I've successfully accomplished this after upgrading to the his ROM, it just requires a few extra items, like a deep fryer, frozen tater tots and mp3's on the PDA to listen to while frying the tots. ;-)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DanITman:
Tell him to stop hold'n out and to share the love :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kyphur:
Oh Baby, that's AKU2.2!!!!!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Jakaroe808:
Ahhh.... good to see.. It looks as if Cingular may have had good reason to hold off on this release for so long. It would be the first time.... I cant wait.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] darkjedi:
well, cingular did say that they'd release it in Q2 of '06. so its anytime between now and june.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] amg212:
Ugh... all the more reason I'm

not

expecting it any time soon (it's easy not to be disappointed when you set expectations really really low)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] theorist:
excuse me for my ignorance on AKU 2.2

is the only difference from the previous cingular rom to this unreleased 2.23 one, the ability to put the time with the battery indicator? thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] jfischetti:
So wait, No Direct Push e-mail in a ROM we have all been waiting for in the first-half of the year to be released? Didn't they say that that functionality would be available.

Can anyone wax poetic on why it is not included? and why hasn't there been more outcry about it?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kyphur:
A2DP - Advanced Audio Distribution Profile. The Advanced Audio Distribution Profile in Bluetooth that works with Stereo BT Headsets!!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DanITman:
There has never been a previous cingular ROM...only the original shipped with it.

Pretty much its AKU2.0 with a few small changes.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] darkjedi:
i wonder why they (MS) chose AKU2.2 when the 4GB samsung phone has AKU 2.5 already...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] jfischetti:
Damn Microsoft and their crazy acronyms.

Sorry, I got confused because i'm chomping at the bit to get Direct-Push mail (AKU2).

Does the source of the ROM have a handle on the 2125 ROM release timing as well?

So close, but probably so far away....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DanITman:
It does....what is the build number?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] darkjedi:
i'm sorry, it's the 8gig version, and here's the link:

http://msmobiles.com/news.php/5012.html

build: 14955.2.5.0
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] JzL:
so if a newb was fixing to flash his phone with the custom 2.17 build tonight... would that be a waste of time considering this is right around the corner?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DanITman:
If you are a new to this just wait and don't void your warranty. If the flash goes wrong we don't want you whinning on the boards about how you turned your 8125 into a glorified paper weight. Just wait and you will be happy. If anything goes wrong you can take it back to the cingular store and they will give you a new one. Or better yet, they will do the update for you.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] JzL:
^^ thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] foxbat121:
There is more than that. Consider AKU2.0 as XP SP1 and AKU 2.2 as XP SP2. So, it contains more bug fixes than AKU2.0. I know the cab installer bug that caused .NET CF 2.0 installation failure is only fixed in AKU2.2.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] glitchsys:
Where's the ROM!!!? heh.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] darkjedi:
in a magical land called Atlanta, GA in the US.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] glitchsys:
As a person who's been in and through Atlanta many times... there's nothing magical about it ;-)

I load the HTC support section for Cingular daily, looking for that new download. But for now I'm happy, got the phone runnin AKU2 firmware and it's customized the way I like it. I just posted so that I can be alerted whenever somebody posts, apparently after a day or so, it stops alerting you about new reply's/posts.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] roweluo:
does any update information??? We are looking forward the new ROM....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] x-X-x:
If A2DP is the only reason why you look for the new rom then you should obviously give a try to A2DP_Hack
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] zerologic:
Nice! Thanks for the idea :-D I'm looking forward to this one, too. We have 3 8125s in the company so far, and I'm the only one that has upgraded... the other guys aren't quite as adventurous. With an official upgrade, they'll dive right in.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] decepticon:
Well I finally got the rom and installed it, I can't say if it has ADP2 because I dont have a capable headset yet.

I would upload the rom but my NDA prevents me from doing so :(

It seems pretty stable so far, runs about as fast as the 2.17 custom rom.

Directsynch works fine.

When I get info on a release date I will let everyone know. From what I heard though this may not be the rom used at release but a newer build.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] GliTCH82:
So what you're saying is, not only are you not gonna leak this ROM but there's a good chance that the one we are waiting for with no release ETA isn't even as good. Wow, good news just keeps pouring in.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Lazarus33:
decepticon:

Can you tell us whether or not the vibrate and/or wake-up of the device works when new email arrives using DirectPush on this ROM?

Thanks either way!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] summiter:
Your forum name seems quite appropriate.

Unless you are a Cingular employee, and this "NDA" is really just part of your terms of employment, then you are the only person who has an NDA related to ROM releases, and I find that a stretch. If you are an employee, I understand not breaking your terms, but it would be far more useful to either not mention the fact that you've obtained a ROM everyone is looking forward to, or you make it available in some discreet and anonymous way, like uploading it to the xda-dev ftp and let it be doscovered. I suppose that decision depends on your ethics.

I know folks in, and associated with Cingular, and the handful I've talked to have never heard of external testers who are under NDA except as part of testing large technology changes. And then it's with enterprise customers in specific test markets who are given handsets to test things like EDGE, UMTS, PTT, etc.

Good day to you sir, and stuff.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] decepticon:
excuse the poo out of me, I had no clue I was doing it for worship. I was merely posting the stability of the rom you carnal acting troll.

I would post the rom but Cingular writes my paycheck and I dont want to compromise that in any way, just like I dont ask you to give me a free Whopper.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] decepticon:
Im a Cingular employee, have been for the past 3 years. The Wizard was my first time getting to test new equipment and or firmware.

I would love to have you do your magic on this rom but as you can understand I dont want to risk putting my livelyhood on the line.

Regarding the vibe alert when in sleep mode, it still isnt working on this rom for me.

[edit]

For further verification of my employment I posted about 2 years ago for my first time and in there I mentioned where I worked.

Honestly I dont care about my reputation on an online message board, I merely posted my experience with the rom and now have learned that people here can't accept information about something without attacking the person.

I don't ask anyone else to put their job on the line and I refuse to do the same to mine.

Hello all.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] GliTCH82:
Well man it's just that I think if any of us worked for Cingular, we wouldn't think for a minute that they are intelligent or competent enough to trace the source of a leak to someone's name and address. So while I can understand that you wish to protect your job, I guarantee you it's no big deal.

If anything, it's better not to post about it at all if you had no intention of releasing it, because you know as much as I that several people on this board are anxiously waiting for this release.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] decepticon:
Edited just for you :)

Welcome

Glitch - I never meant it as a tease I never once said "I have the rom na na na na boo boo"

If people take it as a tease then that's an issue they have to work out.

I'm sure that Cingular can't digitally trace the file but I'm more concerned with them taking everyone involved on this project and not allowing them to participate in the future due to it being leaked. Cingular likes to waive that NDA over your head

On the rom itself truth be told there isn't much difference that I can see between this and Summiters 2.17 rom other than it's "official"
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DanITman:
This is the most action this thread has seen in a while.

Do you know if the ROM is still in the testing phase or is it close to final? When you start your device does it say anything like "For testing only" or anything like that?

Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] GliTCH82:
Fair enough. I edited my post because I felt I said some things I shouldn't have, and I apologize.

If you get any information regarding the release, I'm sure everyone would appreciate the heads up. :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] GliTCH82:
Well I hope decepticon is wrong about him having a newer release than intended for the masses. I mean it shouldn't make sense really, how can Cingular be working on an even newer release when they haven't gotten one out the door yet? That seems extremely counter-productive. I hope they are aware that a lot of customers are waiting for an official Direct Push update, as I can assure you there are plenty of unhappy customers out there who thought this could replace their blackberry.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ih8unot:
Thanks Deception. I don't blame you and thanks for the info. I've worked for Verizon for the past 7yrs and understand completely. I'd love to share with you "The code of conduct" and it's 127 pages. But I'm sure you all don't need that big of a laugh. :lol:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] decepticon:
Hopefully this thread can get back on topic now. We are all one big happy family.

The splash doesn't say "For testing purposes only" but then again the one I was given in October to test didn't either.

I wish this would be a replacement to the Blackberry but honestly I don't think a PPC device ever will.

Blackberry has a niche market for people who want e-mail only and not full blown PDA capabilities, if anything it will be a compliment to a BB once the BB Connect software comes installed on it and an easy to use wheel (Hermes?)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] nickbarb:
Decepticon, I think what happened here is that you jumped into a thread that promised a Rom soon! If you qualified your post with a disclaimer about your role in the availability of such a Rom it would have been better received. By stating that you have it and installed it appeared too many that you would share it. You as a Customer Service Rep should have known how this could have and has been misconstrued and created a riff if you will. Since you are testing this Rom you should have no problem answering questions about the workings of this Rom. . Any info you could give would be much appreciated.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ikkoku:
so where's the one from the OP?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] decepticon:
Well said, I admit fault by not addressing the role in which I acquired the rom.

I am not very proficient with the inner workings of Window Mobile, I mostly just use it to store data, access internet, email, listen to music, and watch 24 via Orb so most questions you would have to bear with me on but fire away.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] GliTCH82:
Hey i realize this is off topic but, how is Orb working out for you? Do you use EDGE to watch your media, and if so, what device speed and pocket player software do you use?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] decepticon:
Orb has been running pretty bad with the latest Orb updates, I get about 30k speeds through Edge but ever since the last update they put out it is choppy but works fine through WiFi.

I am using WMP.

Also OT but has anyone else been getting bad performance out of TCMP with all video formats?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] PuPpYpWr:
waiting till my time arrived...its like a child waiting to open present on christmas day hehe :lol:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DanITman:
Yes, ever since the test qtek ROM I have been getting bad video playback performance. I used to be able to watch DVD's but now its very choppy.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] That70sGAdawg:
Is there not a Blackberry connect" program in this new ROM? If not, will there be one in the future for the 8125 - or do we have to wait for the Hermes??
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] decepticon:
There isn't any BB connect on the rom I got, that doesnt mean it wont be included but I dont see it happening any time soon.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] summiter:
Isn't BB Connect an application that can be installed on any WM device?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] JzL:
wow, and here I was checking this thread daily for the ROM.

Cant blame him for protecting his job.. but you should have made that clear from post1. :roll:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] darkjedi:
he has no obligation to share this rom, so why even bother? as much as it would be very cool to get this new rom, having someone losing a job just to make some people happy, isn't worth the risk.

anyways, decepticon, do you know if this is the final rom build? or still a beta version?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DanITman:
Already been asked on Page 3....he believes it is a final build since there is no indication of beta.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sublevel:

Blackberry Connect IS a separate program, but even when I changed my Cingular 8125 ROM to an older TMobile english version, (with a blackberry connect data plan) - it still wouldn't work with my cingular SIM card. My company insist on blackberrys plans so I'm stuck with xpress mail or waiting for an official cingular version.

The blackberry connect in the Nokia 9300 worked great with my SIM, but the unit is boring...

Please don't close this thread mods!

Here's something else on AKU2.2 that I just got Jason Langridge who works for M$ in charge of WM enterprise solutions. He's here doing breakout sessions at MEDC 2006:

It fixes the deep-sleep mode = no vibrate on new email problem! :D

Apparently, this issue only affects the Wizard btw and it slipped through a crack in the QA process.

Anybody have any other questions for M$ on WM5? I'll try to track down answers for you. Everybody who's anybody in the Mobile division is here answering questions and listening to concerns.
