Anyone seen the HTC WM6 upgrade for the S620? It’s about this (><) big….

Like other HTC S620 owners, I’m frustrated.  Frustrated that we have to wait on a WM6 upgrade ROM for our S620s when T-Mobile has had a WM6 upgrade out for the Dash for months now.

Sure, I could flash my S620 to the T-Mobile WM6 ROM. I’d rather not [deal with all the T-Mo ...stuff]. Although, I might. Both my JasJar (which I used purely for dev) and my Wizard (Cingular 8100) are now WM6-ified.  I’m missing the WM6 goodness on my S620…

Is this a ploy by HTC?  Perhaps. One poster to this thread over at XDA Developers seems to think so.

Thoughts?

 

How to hard-reset your HTC Wizard

I had to hard-reset (not the first time) my Qtek 9100 today (I was futzing with system stuff and I zigged when I should have zagged), so I thought I would blog about it for those searching for an option other than ‘Clear Storage’. 

Option 1:
Start > Settings > Clear Storage (then enter in the number it requests and tap ‘YES’)

Option 2:
Hold down the Comm Manager button(top left) and Voice Command button(top right) buttons while performing a soft-reset (depress the reset button using the stylus); after you depress the soft-reset button, [contintue to hold the two side buttons] hold down the navigation pad for ~4 seconds until you are prompted on screen [you can release the side buttons now]. Press the Send (Talk) button (i.e. the left telephony button)  – or whichever button your system prompts you for.

FWIW, I have seen unsubstantiated claims that Option 2 is a ‘more thorough’ hard-reset than Option 1…
