Swweeeeeeet. Warranty supported upgrade happening tonight then! Having said that I am due an upgrade in the next few weeks!

[tepss]

just done it. without any problems or suprises. one question now: if i'd try to unlock my vario ii with cid method... whats gonna happen? will it be ok with my new wm6?

[Embraer]

Works fine - the only thing WM6 seems to lack is my favourite ringtone "Old Phone", anybody got a copy, can't imagine being without my Jim Rockford ringtone?

To replace messenger and Remote Desktop you need to get Googling!

search for WM6 RDP-Finster.cab and wlm duttythroy  

So I am currently running the plain vanilla TMob customised WM6 ROM with mandt's spiffing Vista Ultimate theme - looks nice! So you allude to messenger and remote desktop are there any other spiffing mods I should be looking for? Its been a while since I did any customisation, so long in fact I can no longer remember my XDA-developers login details! Other things I have read about are implementing the TouchFlow and some sort of HTC Homescreen Plugin? Any clues?

[mandt]

HTC Home is pretty useful, if a little large. I'd also recommend a newer version of X-Button with the today screen drop-down menu. HTC Action screen is a must have for me, and don't forget HTC Album!

Sounds like you know where to get 'em  

Glad you like the theme

How do you get the official live messenger or even the old msn messenger for this?

Has anyone checked to see if this has MicroSDHC drivers?

would love to no this as well please

[MikeWard1701]

Dows WN6 upgrade a non-SDHC slot to SDHC compatability or is there a hardware difference?
Same with Bluetooth, read that the Hermes has BT 2.0 but no EDR, does WN6 change that or again is it hardware?


Thanks,
Mike

The Hermes is certainly SDHC compatible from a harware point of view.  Some WM6 builds have included the drivers, and I think all the current WM6 builds do.
From memory it was the 3.57 Roms that first had this.

My 6 gig microSDHC works fine in my M3100.

Have you hard reset the phone, not just the soft reset using the button on the bottom? Instructions here http://www.modaco.co...set-the-Hermes/

Hi, i'm new to this forum.
I'm having trouble updating my vario 2 to wm6. I would like the official version from t-mobile uk but when I'm taken to the htc website (http://member.htc.co...gistration.aspx) and try to register my mda i get this message:



Unable to register your serial number. The serial number you entered is not for an HTC branded product.

You can only register HTC-branded devices (e.g. HTC   Touch or HTC S620 ) here. If you purchased your device (e.g. T-Mobile Dash or   Orange SPV E650) from a mobile operator, please check with your mobile operator   if they have their own product registration service.

Nope, I can still download it.

You need the serial number, not the IMEI (they're not the same). Look under the battery for the number indicated by SN: that usually starts HT....

thank you

[fathazza]

hey guys,

im having trouble installing this, i keep on getting an error (no 260) about my connection.
Everything is fine until i come to the final bit where you do the final next to make it install.

Then as soon as ive done this activesync/windows mobile device centre loses the connection to the phone
and a couple of mins later the progam comes up with the connection error and tells me it cant continue.

Ive tried this on my main pc on vista and my laptop with xp and used a cradle and a normal usb cable on each and get the same problem.

any help would be much appreciated.

thanks

Harry

ps. i tried searching for the problem but couldnt find anything tho i was probably searching for the wrong thing

[PaulOBrien]

Sounds like the driver isn't being installed properly when it drops to bootloader - i've seen this on Vista, but not XP?

When the device is in bootloader (multi colour screen), have you tried just unplugging and replugging the device then rerunning the update (with it still on the bootloader screen)?

[DarkWanderer]

This maybe a really dumb question, but does the Official TMob WM6 ROM linked above include the ToucFlo interface? I have the DopodAsia WM6 which didn't include it.  Of course since I've not used TouchFlo is it a great loss?
