[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] JPHCCFC:
i wonder how come this problem has only come about in the last month or so as 3g data browsing was fine then!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] nolovelust:
it was the case for em all the time. thats why i've sent my first tytn back to t-mobile. hopefully this update will solve my problem
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hellejoep:
Nope, this is a AKU 2.3 rom.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] JPHCCFC:

MMS Help

Okay, I've flashed this ROM, working fast !

Anyway, my MMS doesn't work. Cannot send or receive MMS-messages.

I have KPN in the Netherlands. I have entered the correct settings, but somehow it doesn't work. Anyone???
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] johnburn:
Maybe I should let someone more experienced such as pof or sleuth255 answer, but this is my take on how HTC releases updates. HTC will create a downloadable file that has "WWE" in the name, such as "RUU_Hermes_1.35.255.2_1.35.255.102_1.08.00.10_HTC_WWE_Ship.zip". "WWE" stands for "World Wide English". ("RUU" is "ROM Update Utility".) The "WWE" is a "generic" version of the firmware that does not contain any specific carrier customizations or languages other than US English (I believe) and in theory should work with any GSM carrier, but you will have to create your own GPRS connections, etc.

Then HTC will create regional and language variants for each of the carriers that purchase equipment from them. From what I can tell, these customizations are usually added as CABs in the Extended_ROM and these load after a hard reset. However, the version numbers for these variations rarely match the parent "WWE" version, so you never know if 1.35_WWE is older or newer than say, Cingular's 1.20 (I'm using hypothetical examples to prove my point).

Now comes the tricky part. These downloads are generally difficult to find. They are not posted "willy nilly" to web sites or if they are, they hidden deep in the support sections. The best place to find them is actually the xda-developers' FTP site.

Bad news. They ripped my friend off. Same exact AKU as mine.

Anyway salesman claims he swore it was allready updated but it should be PTT active by the end of 1st billing cycle.

who knows.

Thanks John, very informative and detailed reply, i have been keeping a close eye on the support section of the HTC Europe site for a week or so but i was not sure if this was a waste of time. Now i know!

Much appreciated,

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] V J:
For what it is worth, on the Belgian site (http://www.smart-phones.be , registration required to see the downloads), there currently is a file with the following information (to find it, I needed to enter my IMEI code):

* Device type: HTC TyTN

* Language: en

Download ROM software (HER_QTEK_1182553_106_10303_WWE_SHIP.exe)

It might help in determining the name of the updated file.

While this still is the old file (it is the version on my TyTN), I'm keeping an eye on this site as well. :)

Hi guyz,

i just gave HTC Europe a call today (Tel Support Line - Belgium) needed to ask another thing so i thought i might just ask about the rom update too, so they confirmed that there is an official rom update to be released in Q1 of 07 and that when its released it will be hosted on HTC website and in order to download the rom users will need to use IMEI number of there HTC TyTn phone...

I also asked about crossbow and they told me that they cant say much until its released...

i||uSi0n^
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] QuachMD:
Thanks for the info, but what's an IMEI number?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] dan1431:
I was recently in England and I called the UK number to get something repaired on my TyTN.

At the service center I spoke with a really helpful HTC employee who said that no decision had been made yet if HTC is going to release Crossbow for the TyTN or not. However, he did say that the last time he had contact with the people who make that kind of decision they were leaning to releasing Crossbow for the Hermes as it is a test platform for it.

Hope that helps,

Dan

Thought you guys might be interested in this, might not be end of Jan after all.

Dear Oliver, The ROM update for the Tytn is expected in the next 2-3 months, unfortunately we cannot be more accurate at this time. We do not have any information on WM6 at the moment as it has not yet been released. It is unlikely that WM6 will be available for the Tytn. Thank you for your enquiry, Should you have any other problem, please do not hesitate to call us. Your Local number can be found at http://www.europe.htc.com/support/cs_by_phone.html Best regards,HTC Supportcallservice@htceurope.comhttp://www.htc.com

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] djslash:
I gave HTC a call yesterday as well and they told me the same thing too.

They will be a ROM for the Tytn Q1 2007 but that's all they could tell me. Nothing on AKU or WM6. They were not able to say what the changes would be. But, hey, there are just helpdesk people, what do they know :-)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gregnash:
Cool! Makes sense; Telstra are testing HSDPA upgrade to 14Mbps with simultaneous Voice + Data, which apparently will require new device firmware.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mrderby:
Do you think we could "" Upgrade "" the HTC TyTN device to WM-6 ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
WM6 (crossbow) is based on WinCE 5.x as was WM5. The first iteration of Windows mobile based on WinCE 6 will be Photon, tentatively scheduled for 2008.

WinCE is the embedded OS kernel that forms the basis of a number of "smart" devices. Windows Mobile is a "shell" around this kernel that is used to power smartphones and PDAs

all very confusing IMO....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] abubasim:
Similar to how Nokia and Sony Ericsson both are running the Symbian OS on their smartphones, but each vendor have their own UI. Nokia have Series 60, 80 and 90, I think, while Sony Ericsson currently have UIQ 2.1 and 3. (There's one Nokia phone that also runs UIQ 2.1; the 6708. But that's just a Nokia-branded Benq P31.)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
@perlmane:

It's regionally dependent based on what operator you are using, whether you have direct push etc.... Plus there are personal preferences, the type of keyboard your device has, and whether you have UMTS in your area or not.

See now why I said what I did? There is no one good answer. Even making a matrix is impossible due to the myriads of changing info.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pietrucci:
I totally agree with you. Also, this question has been asked about a million times. It's all over the forum. Everything about ROM versions can be found on the wiki. Also several links to the individual threads.

And the subject of this thread is AKU3 I think... When I read this new messages I expect to read about AKU3, not about other ROM subjects.

Sorry...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] perlmane:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mrvanx:
I emailed HTC a few days ago asking whether there was a new ROM for the TyTN, since it only says

its not very helpfull if you own a HTC TyTN and not an O2/T-mobile/vodaphone (et all) branded Hermes device.

I got this reply:

But it then got an email stating Q1 2007 about 2 minutes later?!?!

Hopefully we will get a new ROM soon. But im personally looking forward to some cooked ROM-age and maybe a possibility the geniuses here can crack open GPS on the Hermes too (fingers crossed!!!:))
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] V J:
Q1 2007 = January, February, March

So it is not contradictory to their first response. Most sources talk of it coming out in the first quarter (Q1), which probabely will mean March. :D

Jörg
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mrvanx:
Yer i realise that!! (rolls eyes!) But i figured it was a tad strange since the original email responce was from a named address (not the standard helpdesk@htc address)

So the guy whos sent saying March has probably been told otherwise and had to send another email?? In all i got three emails all changing what they said!

If the persons who already have the new ROM for Hermes will put it here they will loose their jobs.

In our russian forum we have a person who have a new Russian localiazed ROM with ACU 3 on his device. But he can't give it to other guys because hi is working in HTC general distributor in Russia.

As he said localiazed version of ROM is on testing at distributor company.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] sub69:
Yeah I meant a proper, officially released, upgrade.

In my experience, dumped ROMs that appear before the official releases are never quite as stable as they should be. And as I'm using my Hermes as my main phone, I need the stability.

My poor Universal, however, is having to put up with all sorts of experiments at the moment...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] jsp_m:

2) Make a latte and have a Marlboro and keep clicking refresh on my browser?

What should I do?

Well tomorrow this time we have AKU 3.3 :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] piopawlu:
I really hope so.. cause I decided to take my laptop for the winter holidays just to upload the new rom :> And I was supposed not to touch my 'toys' but spend time snowboarding..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] trion:
Some advice for the people trying to flash it when it is in the upload!

Don't!! Because most probably the radiobootloader is 1.0108 which means you can't downgrade the radio anymore, or install the GPS enabled radio, who knows, it might just work with the AKU 3.3 rom.

Instead, extract the exe, you will then get the *.NBH file! ( I use Total commander for this )

Then use NBHExtract to extract all the rom parts (OS and external) *.NB files.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=289830&highlight=nbhextract

And use the 1.01 MFG bootloader and MTTY.exe to flash the OS and external rom. This way you can still flash any radiorom you want.

If someone then confirms it has the older radio bootloader you can allways flash the whole rom. But untill then I would do it this way!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] piopawlu:
Thanks for your advice, I would probably flash the whole rom if not you :-) Anyway, I hope there will actually be something to flash tomorrow, though I don't want to be the very first to upgrade as I already have some bad experience with recovering my old pda :/
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
For the filename it seems that the 1.34 radio has HTC_BOOT 108, so follow trion's advice and don't flash the full rom, just the OS/ExtROM parts using 1.01 MFG.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pello:
Thnx for the advice...i am sooooo courious :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] vador:
I agree!! Be careful.. better this way before anyone confirms that is not radio boot loader 1.0108!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] rumy:
hopefully this rom does my hermes some good. I have soo many problems its not funny, just been waiting to upgrade rather than wiping out and installing the same rom.

I think the AKU3.x have some major changes which need the radio rom to go with it. correct me if im wrong. Im not going to flash till we know it is downgradable.

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pello:

Plz upload ASAP! I am so fed up with my TyTN and his bugs that I was going to get me a new phone tomorrow.

Reading that a new ROM might be released soon gives me some hope not to get another phone!

I really love WM phones as long as they run stable, with my Wizard I never had any issues because there where some great ROMs available, which clearly is a real let down if you get a TyTN, which so supposed should be the greatest smart phone out there....
