Guest looeee Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 Hi Paul I know that this is your website, and I don't want to be a pain, but could you add info about ROM updates to the appropriate place in the wiki as well as news items?
Guest Rob.P Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 Anyone else finding the FTP really slow (probably cause you've all just got the MSN alert and are downloading it, no doubt :) )
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 Good call, i'll make sure I do that. P Hi Paul I know that this is your website, and I don't want to be a pain, but could you add info about ROM updates to the appropriate place in the wiki as well as news items?

Guest Syphon Filter Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 the FTP seems to be crippled by demand!

Guest finisterre Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 Right! Well I've never flashed my Vario II before, but I've been waiting for this. Better start reading up on how to do it safely!

Guest BrownSource Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 I have an unadulterated vario 2 and am also wondering about the merits of upgrading to WM6 - I recall seeing a post a while back about safely backing up an original ROM. I'm guessing this would be useful tutorial before trying to upgrade the device? Am I right too in assuming warranty voided if upgraded? thx
Guest finisterre Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 Can anyone who has installed it tell me if it includes Office 2007 apps? Thx.
Guest sketchmasterx Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 Anyone tried this on a vista PC? I get something like a "error (254) cant get connect to device", even though the device is sync'ed and gone into that weird mode ready to be flashed.
Guest sketchmasterx Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 Ok so resetting the phone after the initial connect seem to solve the first problem, now when it starts to install the image i get Error 260 connection failed.

Guest Paul (MVP) Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 This is for HTC TYTN DEVICES ONLY. P
Guest finisterre Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 This is for HTC TYTN DEVICES ONLY. P My Vario II is SUPERCID ever since I SIM unlocked it. I thought that meant I could install any Hermes ROM on it?
Guest Rob.P Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 (edited) ^ If you've SUPERCID'd your device it should still be true that you can install this ROM (I'll find that out myself later when I get home), I think Paul's message was to the average users who aren't interested in mucking about with their ROMS and want only official upgrades.

Guest KingRizzo Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 My Vario II is SUPERCID ever since I SIM unlocked it. I thought that meant I could install any Hermes ROM on it? You can update with this ROM but all of your settings for mms and what have you will be cleared away with HTC's own settings BE PREPARED I have a Vario II and I aint taking no chances until I get the official T-Mobile upgrade which ive been waiting on for more than 6 months!
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 You might be waiting for ever for that one... P

I think there's a CAB file somewhere that adds all the T-Mob settings back in for you.
Guest sketchmasterx Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 Ah that sucks i thought a HTC firmware would just work, starting to regret buying something thats branded by someone else! (m3100) Is it worth doing this SIM unlock thing? (Do you like the way i now what im talking about!)
Guest BrAtKo Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 I have applied WM6 to mine SPV M3100 and it works totally fine. But I have used the DoPod ASIA ROM customized RUU, of course, you need to Super CID. After Super CID this TyTN Europe should work too. Than first - unlock the phone by free unlocker http://pof.eslack.org/hermes-unlocker/ .
Guest jim.mason Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 You might be waiting for ever for that one... P I agree, why would they bother upgrading the Vario II when the III is imminent (well hopefully so :) ) Cheers Jim
Guest KingRizzo Posted August 2, 2007 Report Posted August 2, 2007 (edited) You might be waiting for ever for that one... P tell me about it my dude, but i really aint too fussy over what OS i have installed Can't till my contract runs out then i can get the Vario III, i see u already have the Kaiser u lucky person Edited August 2, 2007 by KingRizzo
