Sprint ROM release date speculation
 
Anyone have guesses, insider info, or other leads on when the new ROM will be released? I have read June 1st on here before, but that's a Saturday, isn't it?

Re: Sprint ROM release date speculation
 
I have two Moguls with two lines and both are really not performing well. One gets calls, vms, and texts WAY late. And the other will turn off or drop calls after 40 seconds and not receive calls for 3 hours. Hoping maybe a radio issue? I had run a couple custom ROMs, but I don't mind playing all stock. So hoping for some fixes come the new ROM. Especially after 4 exchanged Moguls and the same problems.

the offical date is going to be Tuesday June 3, 2008. for windows mobile 6.1 from what i understand their is no real big changes at all. It includes Sprint Tv (good) but no threaded MMS or Pic Mail..., No new user interface like they have in the UK that MS let them change with a wheel thing on the home screen. Ie has a zoom feature, but so what, Opera 9.x beta is way better.

Uhhh... where did you hear that there would be no threaded SMS? It makes no sense to remove the feature from the OS... And unless I'm crazy, the 3.49 test ROM has it.

it just does not have a "real" threaded mms in it. it is a hacked version that ms uses. I also saw some screen shots from the boy genius report on 6.1 and i have the beta 6.1 and mine dont look anything like it. it looks just like 6.0, i think maybe 6.1 for smartphones have a different look then the pro 6.1 for the moguls. i would also like to swap some starage on the fly to my ram, they use they same ram so why not? lets work on this

Yes the new look is for the smartphone version of 6.1. Pro 6.1 looks about the same as always.....:scratch:

and it does have a real threaded mms. b00n. threaded in 6.1 pocket outlook is default.

I think some are confusing threaded MMS with SMS. Sprint doesn't even have MMS for the Mogul.

Re: Sprint ROM release date speculation
 
So June 2nd?
Why would they update the radio version as well as the rom build?
I though the last official release unlocked all the potential of the msm7500 chipset (minus hardware video acceleration of course) but gps and rev a are enabled. No one has reported any differences between the old stock radio and the test radio.

Thoughts?

Wow, you really like talking out your ***, don't you?

Let's see here. First off, there's no such thing as threaded MMS. There's threaded SMS, which is what 6.1 has built-in standard, and is not "hacked." It's the real-deal. Then there's the new MMS (how would you go about threading pictures and videos?) which is what they're working on with Sprint to figure out.

Already clearly known is that 6.1 for smartphones looks completely different from 6.1 Professional. Welcome to January.

And storage and RAM are NOT the same thing, no matter how much you would like to think they are. The phone's storage is ROM, not RAM, and they cannot be swapped or adjusted. The ROM is WAY too slow to be used as RAM, and they're not interchangeable technologies. This isn't like the early days of WinCE/Pocket PC 2002/2003 where there was no ROM and RAM was used as both storage and system memory so you could allocate what you wanted to either. These days they're separated so there's no risk of losing all your data when the battery dies.

Seriously, if you're going to act like you know what you're talking about, actually know what you're talking about first.

Re: Sprint ROM release date speculation
 
the update should be soon because the so call "leaked" rom has been put out. im assuming they want us to test it as beta for them, but i dont see how anybody can have an exact date unless they work for HTC. i work for sprint and i dont even know when the update is coming out. im confused as to why there are so many dates floating around with no positive expalantion. we have june 3rd, late june, i believe no one really knows.

Siflan 05-29-2008 12:25 PM
Re: Sprint ROM release date speculation
 
The 1st of June is on a SUNDAY ... But it should be comin' out very soon.

Re: Sprint ROM release date speculation
 
Soon, they have reupdated the link on the powerdeck page for updates to take you to the htc site. A couple of days ago it was still taking me to the "No updates are available for this device" page, now it is back to the hts download site. I would think this is in preparation for a (Monday? or Tuesday?) release.

Easy tiger. I was just curious. I feel like an investigator trying to get someone to rat someone out. Just trying to decide whether to get hyped for the update or not.

Why, be excited about a stock ROM anyway? There's really nothing new that we haven't seen already.

We already got GPS and Rev A., 6.1 etc.. What's all the hype about?

Somebody, needs to find out when the Diamond and/or Raphael are coming out. That'll excite me.

Some people like ROMs that... I don't know... actually work 100%. Don't get me wrong, custom ROMs are great, but each one has its little bugs and snags. It's nice to use a ROM that "just works."

Diamond is already out just the GSM version so far available, haven't seen a CDMA version. Raphael is slated for release after the Treo 800/850 in Mid to Late July this year.

What the hype is about is that we've got hacked versions of the 6.1 _beta_ ROM(s).
With betas, we can be stuck with bugs and major incompatibilities. While bugs and issues always exist in the stock ROMs, using stock instead of beta as a starting point for cooking customs ROMs tends to have a more positive outcome. For example, battery life with the 6.1 beta builds seems to have degraded. Hopefully, it will be better when using stock as a base.

because stock ROM updates often come with driver updates and other goodies that arent available in hacked/leaked ROMs. then our buddies here and at XDA can take those drivers and implement them into more advance ROMs.

I just called HTC and they had no comment as to the date or the fact that 6.1 will even be available for the Mogul. I know they know, I just hate being played for a fool...that"s all.

Sarcasm, right?

I know Sprint is eating from the crazy tree with their $100 million+ Instinct advertising blitz, but, why would I pay to go to a crappier phone, and until they tell me the Raphael will be available for purchase today they have no right to not make fixes to the problems they have. *sigh* No wonder Sprint is just gushing out blood and dieing.

I had a Sprint Rep try to sell me an Instinct, even though I told him I already had a Mogul. I told him that I would gladly upgrade to a Diamond or Raphael, to which he replied, "Huh?".

Hell, I had one of those mall reps try and get me to switch to a Centro, saying it had more features than my Mogul. Epic.
