HTC delays WM6 ROM till end of July?

[telcontar]

All,
I've been eagerly awaiting the official WM6 ROM for the Herald from HTC and inquired yesterday re: when it will come out. Here's the response I got, looks like a delay :-(

------------------------------

Thank you for contacting HTC Europe regarding Windows Mobile 6.

For further information on our Windows Mobile 6 update strategy, including which devices will receive the update, please see the following link.

Once released, they should be available for download from the support section of the HTC website.

Provisional dates are as follows.
Athena (X7500/Advantage) - Middle of September Excalibur (S620) - Middle of September Hermes (TyTN) - End of July Herald (P4350) - End of July
Other devices dates are still being finalised.

These updates will require Registration, and will be only available for genuine HTC branded products. Network branded and Co-Branded devices are not included in this launch. For those devices please see the network or point of sale for updates.

Well it will be soon for the herald :)

Better late than never... :) We'll probably not even need to wait "THAT" long, who knows ? :D

[kshfahmy]

I hope they really do it. We had the bad experience with imate before.

Hi all,

This morning i logged in at members.htc.com and my pda model (p4350) as been removed from the section "software updates"... And i think that means something :-)

[The Dutchman]

Yes it was removed yesterday, it is still gone.. well of course i'm hoping that WM6 will be downloadable, but i don't think it will...

[itje]

I emailed brightponint and asked about if they have cancelled wm6 for the p4350, and I got a response that the update to wm6 is not cancelled, but just a bit delayed, and that they will be available on HTC support as soon as its ready.

If you do not know the consequences then do NOT attemp to flash WM6 on your device!Since you can end up with a brick and then wait for the official release, or you could use WM5 and wait for the official release.. choice is up to you;)

[xQlusive]

i think your are right:>..Btw..does any0ne kn0w where can i find wm5 offical? i bought my herald 1month ag0 but there is no cd inside the phone case with wm5..is there any link or site that i can download them in case i dont like wm6?

I do not know if these will work for you.. but you should try them before flashing etc.! Well i'm almost sure they will not work, but try!!

Confirmation from HTC: P4350 WM6 for end of July.
In HTC e-Club something is changing (now I can see my phone in software upgrades but still nothing to download).

Bye

I found a valid serial for DOPOD C800 for the HTC Club:http://member.htc.com/member/ProductRegistration.aspx (you have to register first)

HT648FS07581

You can change the red numbers to generate other serial numbers.

You can use this hint if you need a serial registration number to download the official ROM.



For HTC 4350:

HT648FS06496

Also, you can change the numbers ...

That in case that you need a serial registration number to download the official ROM.

I tried the same serial provided above and it worked for me... now I have 3 registered serials for P4350... WTF !?

Can we really rely on this eClub !?

[sandibad]

That's why it's better to use it WHEN you need it !
