Internet Sharing Problems?

We have installed RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3_1_.57.502.1_6275_1.48.00.00_108-ATT-MR3_Ship.exe on our Cingular 8525.

Overall it seems to work, however we have 2 issues with it.

1) The Turn Flight Mode On/Off is no longer there

2) Every time we use the internet sharing, the Vista can no longer recognize the USB connected 8525. We either has to clear the device memory or re-install the Windows Mobile Device Center to before we can do any thing.

We are using Vista Business Edition and Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1.6965 (which we believe is the latest version)

Is there a fix for this problem? Because of issue #2 we had to roll back to WM5 as we can not use the phone in internet sharing mode.

For those who are intested, we also have noticed the following minor issues.

1) When using color scheme other than AT&T, we noticed that the Phone colors do not match the Color Theme of the device. for example you end up with green Theme but Blue phone buttons

2) Windows Mobile Device Center syncs via USB are exteremely slow when compared to WM5

3) Bluetooth based syncs are not working.

We hope the above helps. We look forward to hearing from someone on the issues to see if there is a new version that fixes them.

Thanks

WIFI not working after upgrade to WM6

Hi,

I just upgraded my Hermes ATT 8525 from WM5 to this CINGULAR WM6 version which I downloaded off of rapidshare site:

WM6 Cingular USA version (same as the official but cingular customized and radio version 1.48) thanx madcap180

Everything is working great, the upgrade was smooth and I was able to get all my data back and all that except for the WIFI connection.

I am able to connect to my Home Wireless Secured Network (SSID), and it shows that it is connected and has almost all the green bars showing excellent signal quality, but when I try to use Messenger or Internet explorer, it doesnt work. I am not sure why? Is it trying to connect using GPRS or cingulars Internet connection? If so, how do I fix it so that It connects using my home wireless connection. I do not subscribe to ATT/Cingulars Internet data plan etc,...

Any help will be greatly appreciated.... thanks

Sorry if this has been asked before, I just dont have patience read all 56 pages in this topic...

Where exactly is the official update rom? I see the link to rapidshare...its not what I'm after.

The one that I could find from att.com (it actualy redirects to htcamerica.net) is WM5.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Bookworm:
V@no.... The problem is this is just the official version, not the official official version, which is not officially out yet. When its double official, AT&T and HTC will officially post it. Do what I do- lurk around until things somewhat make sense.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] leoiden:
Also keep in mind that htc and or att will never release the newest and greatest update official wm6 rom

only here you would find the latest and greatest!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] V@no:
Ok, now it got even more confused...if they are not going to release it, then why do they make it at all?

and about "official official" - that just doesn't make sence...

Thanks Duper00 for your tips...

I disabled proxy settings and it now works great.....

Here is how to disable PROXY settings for those having the same problem:

Click Start -->> Programs -->> Proxy Manager -->> Then Click Disable Proxy Icon, and that should take care of the problem....

Windows Mobile 6 Pro upgrade

I have just bought a new AT&T 8525 HTC unlocked phone but realized I bought it with Mobile 5. Where can I get Mobile 6 Pro to put on it and if I do find it does it have to be a special version since mine is unlocked. I live overseas where they don't have AT&T/Cingular.

Thanks

ok i read through every post on this thread and I didnt see anything about this problem. If so I am sorry.

Anyways, I put this "official" version on my phone and i love it. But, I tried to change my text message alert to something other than the default one, but when i change it and hit ok it goes to a different setting. I go see if text is still changed and it is back to its default ring, too. It wouldnt bother me, but its annoying. If anyeone could help me out I would appreciate it.

WHERE is WM6??

I have the newest AT&T 8525, and I downloaded a file today named RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108_Ship.exe... Turns out I already HAVE this ROM image!

Did I download the wrong file?

WHERE CAN I GET the **REAL** Windows Mobile 6 (WM6) for my phone??

Is it even available yet?

All serious answers extremely welcomed. My staff and I are very anxious

to have this new OS...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
No, but rumor has it that it may be released on 10/19. Without even seeing it, though, I say with confidence that XDA members have been producing far better ROMs for many months now.

Oh, and just in case there's any doubt, this is a "serious answer". :rolleyes:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Reaper29:
ATT ?

ATT will only produce a ROM half as good as the ROM cooks at XDA and VP3g is one of the best Hermes cooks out there , if it is a matter of warrenty then turn grey waiting on ATT and if it is about a ROM that will handle your needs and give you control of your device that you paid a lot of money for then read a lot and then pick one of the great ROM's by VP3g,schaps ,austinsync and many other great cooks at XDA as you will have a lot better support here than at ATT.:D

Quick follow-up

OK, I'm downloading what seems to be one of the "WM6" files from your "Mirror" sites... It's a .RAR file... pardon a dumb question (I'm just trying to be sure), but I need something like "WinRAR" to unpack it, right?

And pardon me for the "serious answers" thing... I just meant that I didn't need anybody chiming in with derogatory or smart-alecky replies... We're a business and we're just trying to get this Task off our plates... THANKS.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] yxgwfty:
Just chill, and do some reading!

Just so you know, I am no pro at this unit. I just got mine, but I like the latest greatest on my machines, so I found this place. I downloaded the installer, the package is really simple and self explanitory. So, just sit back, the download (pending on which mirror you are using) may be limited, so you may have to wait (I waited 10 mins), but it is well worth it. Beware however, you will lose everything not on the SD, so make sure you take care of business first. Took me 4 days to find this forum, 25 minutes to re-rom my machine...it was well worth it.:)

My girlfriend and I both took the plunge and went for this ROM update and so far we both are pretty happy. She is happy cause ringtones work again. There were some issues with the most recent rom update and downloading ringtones from at&t. This update seems to work perfectly for that. As far as I am concerned I haven't had any issues, I only got 3 apps installed so I am running pretty clean. Web speed was what was expected and the OS itself seems to be pretty zippy. So who else is gonna take the plunge?

Has there been any noticeable changes/updates to the Bluetooth stack (i.e. is it more stable and will it keep a connection)? Thanks for any reports.

BTW, the post about the keyboard not lighting up is probably due to the keyboard light sensor beinq turned on by default. Go to settings, buttons, backlight and uncheck the light sensor option. Maybe that will solve the problem.

Anyway thanks for any reports on the Bluetooth stack.

ATT Rom

Well, took the plunge. Definitely an official ATT. Nice tutorial for newbies is built in. I just finished cutting down the dopod release and adding in the things I wanted, now I have to decide if its worth re-doing my work as they're both basically the same, although the animation and deep blue color theme is nice. I don't like losing the 5th button to PTT though.

I don't know if it matters, but I repackaged the rom, WITHOUT the ipl and spl, but including the extended rom, the radio, the OS, and the cool animated splash screens. I think it will make it a safer flash for non-ATT folks.

It's here: http://rapidshare.com/files/42983978/ATT_WM6.zip

I have been running the rom all day (obviously, i had it first, lol).. so here is my quick synopsis...

Immediately after flashing and going through the customizations and finally getting to play with the rom i was amazed... for an actual operator rom with all the bloatware this thing is pretty quick, i would even dare to say this is the best official cing/att rom i have ever flashed..

They fixed the blaring loud volume on the splash screen (its still ghey though)..

The att.tsk theme is actually pretty, i almost kept it...

They left in live messenger (which i was surprise as att requested it be removed from the rom for the kaiser/8925)

Obviously working PTT

still uses the Intent midlet

The 1.48 radio has been the best i have used so far

HTC home plug in works just fine (however it does tend to make the device a little sluggish)

still the same old 7 button comm manager..

oh and one thing that really made me happy... I can now play music with WMP and put the device to sleep and it still plays!!!!

hmmm, thats about all i can think of for now... and i leave you with that.. my hung over a$$ is going to bed...

HELP!!

I upgraded the rom on my wife's computer and now the device is named "WM_HEATHER1"

WTF???

Ive tried to find a registry key to change the name of the device... but i have no idea how to do this someone plz help
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
You don't need a reg key. Start menu>Settings>About>Device ID tab.

Every time you flash your device will default to the default name, usually something like WMDevice. If that name is already used when you sync with activesync, activesync will rename your device with another name. WM_Heather1 probably comes from your wife's windows login name.

That is, unless your wife's name isn't Heather. Then I suppose you had some explaining to do.;)
