Thank you.

One question:
People looking this thread should know.

8525 and other Herm100 and/orHerms200 have same mainboard.
8525 has only empty socket for webcam or has different mainboard without any webcam socket?

I plan to have a cingular 8525 and do all roms suitable for 8525 or will I need to find specific 8525 roms.

By the way the housing is pretty easy to change on the Hermes, it only took me about 30 minutes to dismantle and re-assemble mine.

Just be careful not to damage the ribbons inside.

Hi, does anyone know where i can get a new housing for the 8525? Mine cracked during a fight with the X. I shouldnt have ducked.

Sometimes I wonder if folk read the Hermes Wiki! The service manual, dismantling guides and even a dismantling video have been linked there for a looooong time. See near the bottom of the page:

By the way - moving this to Hermes General forum as changing the housing is not an "upgrading" matter.

Wow that's pricey. There's not even any electronics included, it's all plastic!!!! I'll deal with a few scratches on my case, thank you very much.
