Alright thank you so much, but should I listen to Acoustics and get a different ROM, or I guess what is the best you would suggest?

Cingular 8525 + Upgrade ROM - Voice Command

I unlocked my Cingular 8525 which had Voice Command 1.5 pre-installed and flashed my ROM to vp3G 3.62 along with WM6. Everything works fine except that I no longer have Voice Command.

Naturally, I went back to the CD to re-install Voice Command but the software is not there. The CD simply redirects you to online sites so you can purchase latest upgrade.

Outside of re-flashing my ROM back to Cingular 8525, are there any work-around, suggestions?

Problem resolved. Thanks to the guys at XDA-Developers and Nateshuntsvegas, I have a new version of Voice Command up and running.

All-in-all, a new ROM and associated tweaks will take at least ten - sixteen hours to complete and shake-down. But well worth the effort. I have essentially a new and improved phone - faster, more useable memory, more features, better interface.

P.S. post-edit, 1 mo later. Everything I said above still holds true, it's well worth the effort. Also, the improved radio (v1.47) with improved battery consumption is a good-enough reason for the upgrade. But I'm not impressed with Voice Command 1.6. Not very robust. I preferred the voice tags in v1.5.

One other comment, I've noticed several alerts from my firewall/AV over the past month - portal of doom, and a couple other trojans, virus'... maybe coincidence, but use precautions.

The site is 11/.08 old last updated 6/07. IS the best WM6 download still 9 month later?

v3.62 is the latest version for AT&T (Cingular) cooked ROM, however, there have been others. Here's a good link,
