What ROM to use and how to customize 8525 for T-mobile USA

[juzzie]

I have SuperCID unlocked cingular 8525 (HERM 100) with a standard shipped ROM. I am curious if somebody can advise on what is the most suitable ROM to use with 8525 to get all T-mobile USA features and settings for network and MMS?

If the ROM does not matter - is it possible to export all network and MMS settings from my other phone which is T-mobile Dash (HTC S610) to achieve that goal?

I know it's a matter of personal choice (which ROM to use)- but I was thinking if there are some proven ways to get it done right. Thanks.

The rom doesn't matter. I've used a number of them. I don't know about the export. But, here are easy to install cabs with all the t-mobile settings:

In the beginning of that post by Lurch3559 (with cab settings), he is saying "Please ensure that you delete your old settings before installing the cab, It would also be a good idea to write them down."

Do you know where (under what tabs) on the phone should I delete those settings?

I have Tmobile and just have the WM6 Pro Build 17994.0.3.1 and OS 5.2.1437. I downloded the ROM for Cingular 3.57.502.1 and I am just modding and having fun for now. I have a couple iphone things, changed the splash screens, adding new cabs, and just messing around with it first.

After I mess around with my phone for a little I might look for a different ROM to try.

@juzzie: On the Hermes they are located Settings>Connections>Connections>My ISP

This might be the same for the Dash. If not, this Forum also has a section of threads for the Dash U could check.
