Windows Mobile 6 for HTC p3600 - P3600 ROM Development

Ok, I'm probably going to get flamed for this but to the best of my ability I searched and this is what I've gathered up.
There is a cooked WM6 for the Trinity
As of right now, HTC will not be releaseing a WM6 update for the P3600.
Dopod will be officially releaseing a WM6 ROM in July for their D810.
If the HTC P3600 and Dopod D810 are the exact same phones, will us HTC P3600 users be able to update our phones to WM6 from the Dopod ROM?
*flame suit on*

yes, a HTC trinity is an HTC trinity no matter what different carriers call it or how it is rebranded.

wow.. did you even read what I wrote?

yes and I answered your last question. the questions before you already answered yourself.
Wether the Trinity is called P3600 by HTC or Dopod D810 or Vodafone whatever doesnt matter. If one of them releases a rom it can be hacked to it loads on any HTC Trinity. If you do not understand that simple statement then there aint much me or anyone else can say. Its not that hard really

If that information was true for all TyTN devices, that would be great news. Operating my TyTN with Bebe´s WM6 for one week now, I can say that there are worlds between the TyTN under WM5 and WM6:
With WM6
- the TyTN works much faster
- bluetooth inkl. AD2P works stable
- TomTom 6 works stable (without hanging)
- a nice VoIP integration comes along
- TCPMP works stable
In my eyes the TyTN becomes a perfect little tool with WM6 installed on it!
I´s really appreciate a free WM6 upgrade from HTC - it would perfectly fit the TyTN´s hardware.

Oh, I forgot to mention, www.qtek.se is the official distributor for HTC branded devices in Sweden. Info is official and straight from the source.
So, you might want to rephrase that to "...will be good to see a HTC WM6". :-D

We're on the northern hemisphere, so it would be when it is winter in Australia.

I also heard that Vodafone Germany are going to release WM6 updates for Hermes and Herald...
We get the same update i Denmark. BUT. I dont really think that the rom will be any better than the ones we get here. Why? Because when the official releases come I am must certain that some of the Chefs in here will cook some improved roms on top of the official release.
If we look at the M$ history on software - there will be things to improve...hehe.
But - thats my opinion. What are yours?

I don't know.
But unlike the cooked ROMs it is not illegal, does not void my warranty and has full support from HTC.

No official wm6 for the Trinity

Hi,now it's sure,the Trinity will not benefit upgrade with the official wm6 rom.For info,read here
Check this out
http://www.dopodasia.com/global/hke/news/20070503_Dopod_WM6_upgrade.html
I 've already read this, but i think it's not for Htc Europe.
I donno where I've read it but I remember that dopod will upgrade the 3600 to wm6
Edit sorry losai already mention it
It's an old news you've got "Marcdu81" (april) !! Maybe the petition will have an effect !!
This is old news man! HTC already stated that if demand was high they would change views. I will not even bother posting the threads, go search yourself. Think before you post!
Sorry guys,but i've Phone to Htc France and they confirm : No wm6 for Trinity : I ask him this question : Why ? I wait again the answer !
I think you can wait a long time for nothing...There is no reason except "marketing" !!

You don't need a ROM from HTC. You can load the Dopod ROM to your device when it is released. If you need a French ROM, I'm sure that someone here will make one from the original Dopod D810 WM6 ROM.
i have an official email from Dopod Australia saying that they will be releasing a WM6 gps version soon (in the next couple of months).

Not quite the same getting your ROM from a company that re-badges these devices. I for one am way too lazy to change everything (boot splash etc) in the upcoming Dopod release to make it exactly like HTC.
I think a boycott of HTC phones is way overdue. Eten anyone?

No longer a product
If you look on the HTC website. The Trinity P3600 is not even listed as a product anymore.....

it has been months. dopod aus never got the wm5 gps rom. i don't know why they are taking so long... probably because customer support doesn't make them money. even o2 was faster in releasing wm6 to atom life (and the support is crap, i've had 2 o2's)
by the time they release wm6 with gps rom, the d810, wm6 and even maybe gps will be obsolete, and we will all have a new device.

I know, but then... that's even more a reason to release it if one of your children companies is about to beat you to it.
Call me picky, but I want all the ROM version information/splash/logos etc all to be HTC.
HTC seems to have some automated response for my questions, even if you ask WHY the trinity ain't on the list of phones expecting an update, they send a link to the press release.
Growing a little tired of HTC lately, they're even removing the infrared port from their trinity-successor, Kaiser. What will I do with my $40 worth of TV remote software? Damn it!

I doubt if Kaiser will be released shortly - It has a Qualcomm chip in it, see http://www.boygeniusreport.com/gallery/handsets/htc-kaiser-unboxing/?pid=668#picture_nav
The US ITC has banned imports on phones with Qualcom chip with immediate effect. See http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/08/business/08phone-web.html
See below - not listed as product by HTC

At the middle of October
And if that means that HTC are taking the time and effort to build SDHC capability into the ROM, I'm happy to wait....
(And I still believe in Santa Claus too......)
Well.... their DOPOD WM6 ROM has been on official release in Asia since July, so there most be something special coming in the European P3300 ROM over and above the Asian WM6 ROM to make it take three months longer....
I can but hope....

Now that we have at least three cookers (Fracoon, Meschle and Tom Codon, in alphabetical order) who have proven that they can build excellent ROM's, I really don't see any advantage in waiting for an official HTC ROM. I'm sure you will be disappointed.

These guys you mentioned are sure good cookers, but what about a really simple ROM without "useless" stuff into it? Just the original WM6 softwares + drivers. (and in our own languages)

I agree...even I would'nt mind a ROM without the HTC Home, TouchFlo but as stable as the ones provided by the guru's here !
But thats too much to wish for....
It probably also wouldn't invalidate my warranty if i took an official upgrade..
HTC are waiting for meschle to fix SDHC so that they can then include it in there rom!

Yes, you have a point there. Personally, I did not mind loosing the warrenty, but that may be different for others. I used the phone for about 6 months before flashing, to make sure that it was working perfectly though.

My device was replaced already... so I'm more cautious. I always flash my DVD player ROM with newest version but Artemis is a little too expansive for me to experiment. Besides, if you have unofficial ROM it's harder to diagnose source of problems and to gain HTC support help. On the other side HTC support is so poor that it may be not worth of consideration.
So I'm happy that people have possibility to try our cookers ROMs, but I will wait for HTC (about 2 weeks I hope).

I think it will be more fun if you try it yourself...
The best rom is the one that has the features you want/need. No one is able to determine that but you.
i just want to know what is best?
i just try TNT 2
Is fast
but there is more wm6 around
that are better?
the best would be the newest build thats in chinese
if only some could translate it it would be awesome!
hope some one can do it, it will be good for everyone
i like my htc 8525 using to connect my work servers remote
nice phone
so people some one to trans the chinese
I've been using Fun_keys rom based on 3.61
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331623
Ive used schaps, vg3, and the at&t official and out of all of them I like the Fun_key's the best. Has all the features I want, excellent X close button application, and is very quick. Just my 2 cents.

HTC S620 and WM6 Professional

Ciao all,
one question for you: i have updated my S620 to WM6 but
they are in STANDARD version (official from HTC).
have you any others version for my smartphone??
the best I have found is the Rogers Rom. It is just as fast as the HTC but is a little easier on the eyes
Rogers Rom here
Rogers Cretificate here you will need this
And lastly, Here is the sticky that makes it all possible
Note: this is not a Professional however. Pro is only for phones with a touchscreen. I still think you will like it better though.
very nice buddy.. thanks for all

WM6 Professional is specifically for PocketPC-based (touchscreen) devices; from what I know, the ONY version of WM6 that will be released for smartphones (non-touchscreen) is Standard.
