Here is my take on the situation, CUSTEL I'm afraid to say I think you aren't being wise here. If you created the ROM from scratch I can understand and would recommend you charge for your ROM. The problem is that actually you are selling Microsoft’s product which you don't own and don't have the right to re-sell. Sure you've made adjustments, but at the end of the day, the fact you are selling this for a price (even if

you

say you're not selling it, just giving it to those who donate) means legally you're on very shaky ground or I should say more specifically you could be heading for troubles. Let's not forget the sheer enormity of Microsoft and that their legal guys aren't too lenient. My advice would be for you to stop this donate and receive thing and if you do continue to edit Microsoft’s ROMS, don't demand money for it upfront, if people donate to you that's an action they have taken and you haven't forced their hand.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
As stated it isnt money requested up front it is for those that already donated...

With Custel 2.5, when you install the HTC Touch Home plugin, I got the device to be unstable and hang (ie: Activesync).

Is this what Custel did in the final release, remove the HTC Touch Home plugin ?.

Can anyone verify this ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mike-:
Is it faster than version 2.5? If I understand correctly... we need now to donate to get a copy of the new version? If so, how much?

Thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JasenR:
Yes, and I think the mods / admins need to consider if they want this site used to advertise Microsoft ROMs for sale. Call it what you will, asking for money prior to delivering the product is selling. Custel, you do a great job cooking and you have given an awful lot of time to this site and helped a l lot of folks fix their problems. But post donation delivery (selling) ROMs is not what XDA developers is about.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gregross:
Agree - not sure Microsoft would be happy about having their ROM resold ...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mds240:
I have to say I agree. I love your ROMs, CUSTEL, but you are treading some dangerous ground here.

It's one thing to say that you're giving your ROM for free to the people who supported you in the past (who didn't expect anything directly in return for it).

It's quite another thing to post what amounts to advertising in a public forum here and on your new site with the promise of access to the ROM after a donation (both past donations and future donations). It seems awfully like a quid pro quo--money for ROM.

If you think the RIAA is aggressive, you should see Microsoft on a bad day.

Be careful, man.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shadowmite:
I'd have to say it's certainly a bad idea... Microsoft seems to be content with this site how it has been operating... But when you start profitting from doing this, they might very well take action. I'd fully release it quickly if you value this community, donations imply a choice, not a forced decision.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Sleuth255:
XDA developer tools are being abused

Concur. XDA developers does not sell ROMs nor do we condone those that do.

Thread closed while I discuss this development with the admins of this site. I will also discuss permanent ban potential. This is blatant abuse of the free tools we have developed for ROM cooking.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Sleuth255:
Admin/Moderator discussion complete. Thread re-opened. Advertising removed. If you wish to sell ROMs, CUSTEL you may not advertise this here. Until a free link is posted for non-donator's to access, we will consider the rom as being sold, not freely provided. As such, we must distance ourselves from any actions m$ may be inclined to take. We cannot promote the illegal re-selling of copyrighted materials here at XDA.

There will be no ban.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrmrmrmr:
I feel like a moron.

I'd thought that CUSTEL was helping the community; creating the ROM for free use.

I don't understand these greedy actions.

I will remove this rom from my Hermes when I find the time. There are other roms that are available from other people.

It is a fact that custel's rom has advantages but there will be others that are better.

when he was banned, I thought that it was not fair. I would understand if he did not release the rom at all and never came back here.

but coming back and making advertisement... wow !!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JasenR:
Go with the feeling.

He is helping the community, he does release his (awesome) work for free use, and he is one of the more supportive chefs here. The short lived crisis was all about perceptions and has been corrected by Custel. You are a bit late with your comment since this all happened yesterday.

IE/network help needed

I installed the ROM a couple of days ago and it has been working fine until this evening I tried using WiFi and I can get an IP address from my DHCP server, but can't seem to pass any other traffic over WiFi (ping, http, etc.). I saw mention of disable/restore proxy so I tried that. It didn't help. I still can't seem to pass any traffic over my WiFi connection.

And now that I've run the disable proxy cab, my PIE won't pull up any pages at all. I've tried running RestoreProxy.cab and RestoreCingularProxy.cab (I'm a Cingular customer), and it hasn't helped. Other applications are working fine over my GPRS connection. but IE won't open any pages.

What do I need to do to get IE working again?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] misfitflt:
I am sorry to inform you that you loaded a pretty old (May vintage) ROM. I suggest flashing one of the newers ones.

For today, I am using vp3G's WM6 v3.62 "Full" + Add-Ons. It works very well for AT&T folks.

If you move to one of the newer ROMs, you will be easier to help. Noone is likely to try to figure out what is wrong on an old ROM.

I think the reliablity of LVSW "Out of the Box" (and the vanilla flavor of them) are the pluses over CUSTEL ROM's. CUSTEL puts out great stuff especially with some Cingular tint to it (nice for US Hermes users) but has Pro v 2.0 even been re-cooked with all the fix it CAB's yet?? Midget has a good idea here.

Never expected to have an issue with the comm manager as i never have in the past, I had to import a couple of rgu's from 3des rom to get office to work so something in those is conflicting with wifi, I will have it sorted out in a few going through the registry now. If it were not for office 2k7 then there would be no issues with the rom. The wifi on my phone is shot from flashing so wifi is not something I ever use, and my testers are at work but I wanted a working fix for 2.0 users.

Dumb newbie questions

Hi All and thanks for this great forum. Here's my question:

I use a Cingular 8525 with out of the box wm5.1.195; ROM 1.34.502.1 (Date 9/21/06) Radio 1.16.00.00; Protocol version 32.53.7018.01H.

Having major crashing issues. Several times per day. I met a gal on a flight Monday and she directed me here and said to download wm6 and all my troubles will go away. Is this the right wm6 or should i be downloading something different? Can you direct me to a thread that will give me instructions on the download procedure? Also, other threads that will give me a newbies understanding of the jargon used here?

Your help and advice is appreciated.

Thnx

I think there is an issue with the Cingular ISP.CINGULAR service. It stopped working for me in the middle of the day last week. I might have something to do with them updating accounts in there billing system since they added 1500 txt messages to all the PDA unlimited accounts.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Confused Stu:
Hi Aldipalo, and welcome to the forum.

There are a few things you'll need to do before you can install ANY copy of WM6 - if you don't then you will probably end up with a phone that doesn't work/will never work (aka bricked).

You would be best off following the excellent guides by MrVanx (http://www.mrvanx.org/) but his site is down at the moment. PLEASE wait for it to be back up before you do anything.

You'll need to install Olipro's HardSPL first off, then possibly a new Radio ROM, and only then can you install Custel's (or any other) excellent WM6 ROM. The best place to start is in the WIKI for the Hermes and do lots of reading. Don't expect to do your first flash (ROM upgrade) before the end of the weekend, IMHO.

Good luck, and please do some reading and searching before you post questions like this, or you might well end up flamed to death! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] aldipalo:
Thanks for the reply

Thanks Confused, but I think your name applies to me. :p

I'll check out all the threads first and then get back to you. Your advice is appreciated.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] liva:

Hi custel, german version would be great....:D

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Confused Stu:
Aldipalo - Hard SPL gets installed on the phone and is kind of the BIOS on the phone, the radio ROM is the part of the software that is the "phone" part.

Think we'll need to stop this discussion here - this thread is about Custel's (excellent) new ROM, and needs to stay on track or else it'll get huge and difficult to read. Have a look round the site and you'll find every question you want answered - promise! :)

Yup, WiFi issues with CommMgr still.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pvs:
@aldipalo: In addition to the excellent advice given by Confused Stu, above, also keep in mind:

1) You will need ActiveSync 4.5 to sync with WM6

2) You will need at least Outlook 2003 to sync through ActiveSync 4.5

3) You will do best performing the upgrade with WinXP (No Vista)

Hope this helps...and I can only emphasize...Read EVERYTHING YOU CAN...follow ALL the instructions. Backup your device before proceeding...have your PC clean, freshly reboot, and equipped with a decent battery backup...have fun.

Hey CUSTEL this is a great build. The speeds compared to 2.0 are way up. Seems to fly way faster that Black 3.01 did for me as well. I'll try and test for all the bugs that folks are having when I get to the house. It's my B-Day so I might not spend a lot of time on it tonight. I won't have the kids this weekend so I'll be working on finding bugs in 2.5 all weekend and working on bug hunting is SettingSurivor as well. If you need me to test anything on the WiFi let me know.

Audio Manager

The fix now shows the text, but I still have one problem. There are files in there that I don't have that show up. For example, I took off a Guns N' Roses song from my storage card, but it recognizes it as still being there, but then tells me the title isn't there anymore. I formatted the card through my computer, so I know everything was wiped out, but each time I insert the card a select amount of artist appear, even though nothing is on the card. Hopefully someone can help me with this. Thanks

Edit: btw, If the card isn't inserted there are no artists appearing on the manager. So I know they aren't in my pda.
