your welcome.. and to be honest, there isnt really much reason to change roms if you dont need to, if your satisfied with the device then leave it be (the theory of, if its not broke then dont fix it applies here) if you think there are things that need to be changed then by all means, read up and do something about it

this person is selling a used 8125
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286560
and the 8525 is $409 with a 2 year agreement (meaning upgrade or new contract) i think you can also flat out purchase the 8125 from cingular for around $250

only if you think you necessarily need the extra space.. i would probably spend some quality time with the phone, and get to know it a little better before changing it.. it will help to you to get a better idea of what you are looking for, maybe you will want some faster, or more storage.. there are a lot of choices out there that will help cater to your needs

I'm thinking of buying a Vario but all the info i can find on it on the T-mobile website say that it doesnt have vibrating alert. Although the Guy in the shop seems to think it does! Please help me out here guys, I need an informed response to save me getting the wrong unit. Cheers
It does have vibrate.
Thanks for that, you have made my day! I can now finally order one with peace of mind! Thanks for the swift reply; now gonna ring t-mobile to order one. Unless that is you reckon there is something better out there? Whats your honest opinion on the device?
make sure they have some in stock by phoning first or you could be in for a long wait(i waited over 3 weeks :x )
Luckily they have!
I spoke to them and they have some in stock so thats a bonus!

you'll definatley want to do the registry tweaks and the overclocking to speed it up-once you do that its a decent fone :wink:
Which Tweaks?
So which tweaks do you suggest?
Hi Guys, I bought the Universal for quite some time now, and would like to do more advanced stuff with it. but I am kind of new to Rom flashing; I tried to find the threads to read, but there are just too much information on this web Forum(which is great thanks guys), and I can't seem to find the right Keyword to search, which Thread would you guys recommend me to read? or any main keyword I should search for ?
Thanks and have a very nice day guys.

Search the ROM threads...
Jwright's
Midget's
Helmi_c's
Pdaviet.
It's all very personal, fraid you're just gonna have to read up and find which is the best for you.
Hi,
I currently have an Blue Angel, but this will apply to you as well:
If your Universal is working fine, DON'T START FLASHING IMAGES!
The truth is that you MAY end up with a brick.
If you want to do "more advanced" things, why not look at all the Freeware applications you can use? Today, i.e., I got my fingers onto a Universal and tested it with my SD-Card which contains Dosbox and Windows 3.0.
You know what? It ROCKS!!! VGA is absolutly cool and speed is fine.
Think of all the DOS-Games you could run.
This is just one suggestion, but really: don't change a running system.
You read about it and it will seem simple. But if something goes wrong, you will regret it for sure.
Cheers,
vma

thanks for the advice vma, but the thing is, my Univeral is a bit too slow when it run what it comes with originally, so I think I will find a way to back up the ROM and give it a try...
Man I reply so late, because I was choked when drinking water, so the water was splited on to the keyboard, then like space bar and some other keys doesn't work, and to make the matter worst.... I try to dry it with a hair dryer, but I was watching TV.... and in 1 min it melted my keys ... so certain keys are now "forever stuck" so I am currently using a mini keyboard I had... will get anoter standard keyboard soon, this mini keyboard is making me very tried
I hope you are referring to a regular PC keyboard and not to the keyboard of your Universal!!!
Have you tried the Registry-hack's and the section on how to optimize your Universal for speed?

Im sick of hearing people about the 700s now get updates and compaining about. Your phone is old and they are developing a new one for the wm6 to take advantage of new technology.
I wouldn't count on an update for the 700 series. Hopefully we get an update for the 750 series

I know I have a dinosaur and I understand it's a P.O.S most likely but it's what I have for now. I must ask, if no one is willing to make a wm6 ROM for the 700w, do you think by chance they would consider making the LG Today Screen Plug-In work. I'd about give a left nut to have it on my dinosaur.

Lovely... so there are no general WM6/6.1 ROMs that could generically work? Or must they have a certain set of drivers? If this is the case... how close in terms of hardware is the 750?

Well, call clarity can really have to do more with the radio version you are running, but generally speaking, call clarity is great. The internal and external speaker work fine, so playing video's and music are great. The only crappy part is the processsor speed is a little on the sluggish side, but there is a program called battery status which lets you overclock which helps out some. Personally, I would love to have the HTC diamond, but I don't have 700 bucks for it! There are a lot of custom roms in this forum that help with the speed and stability. Hope this helps.

I thought the diamond had an micro sd card slot, but I might be wrong. Either way, it's too expensive right now. I love my wing, especially with all the roms we have to pick from, and all the customizations for it. I would def recommend it though!

Unfortunately, it does not have a MicroSD slot...
For most things, 200MHz is fine, although BatteryStatus does make a difference in some things.

It's called BatteryStatuts. Search for that and it should answer all your questions...
When you find and install the program navigate over to the OMAP tab and set your overclock speed. However, be careful not to set it over 299 because instability on your phone is extremely likely to occur. To be safe set it to 286 or 273. I hope this helps......

...OR you could just download OMAPClock Plus, and not have any extra crap on your phone (unless you like BatteryStatus).
While I'm admittedly not a big fan of uni-taskers, in some cases (like this one) I make exceptions. This should not be misconstrued as admonishment for you to do the same, though.
