Another patched WM5 ROM to test - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

I've made another patched ROM: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Blueangel/wm5_test/ba_wm5_patch3.rar
It differs from the previous ROM in the increased disk cache size and FAT write-through mode is turned off. This potentially can cause loss of data, though in my tests everything worked fine. SPB Benchmark test shows the huge increase in file read speed on my device.
After flashing the device you don't need to do hard reset, nor you'll lose any data (except for system clock settings).

mamaich, can you please tell me what software you use to edit the ROM and maybe a link to a tutorial? I'd like to take my knowledge to the next level.
Thank You,
Alex

Currently there are no tools to make custom ROMs as were for WM2003. I use hex editor (HIEW32) and IDA (www.datarescue.com) to find places I need to patch.

Thanks. I don't think I'm going to tackle that at the moment then

mamaich,
Taking the modules from the emulator image is a smart way bcz it shares the same build, but isn't it better to use the modules dumped from the universal?at least they are final.. (so far)

Universal modules I've tested would hang. There may be 2 reasons - they are dumped incorrectly, or they are designed for VGA-screen. Himalaya 1.60 files work, but they crash often. I think that this is a problem in a dumper. It dumps XIP DLLs/EXEs from memory when they are already loaded by OS and their data sections are already initialized. This cannot be fixed.
Images from emulator are dumped with dumprom tool that produces almost correct files.

I've played a bit with Himalaya registry settings and trueffs.dll driver and made a CAB that would unhide "Extended_ROM" folder and make it fully accessible.
Use this CAB at your own risk as it is not heavily tested.

Fatastic - Will try it right now
Hi Mamaich, Great work.. I will try it at ones... I have just one question, all the patch there has been made for the other ROM will they still work with this one
As soon as I have tested the new ROM I will let you know...

Re: Fatastic - Will try it right now
all the old patches should work with this rom too.

I've made another version that should work with them, and a set of CAB-files that should be used on it instead of similar cabs from this post.

@mamaich
this extrom unlocker will it also work on universal?
thanks

The patched ROM seems to work as it should for me. It installed the MMS from ncruz without complaining.

Hi Mamaich,
Can you pls help asian user by replacing the wince.nls file so that we can have Chinese setting on the BA WM5 machine?
Thanks,

Thank you very much, Mamaich, I finally got working (particulary, but still) a program that did not work before at all.

The extended rom unlocker works; still unable to install a new splash screen. Does the ext rom need to be bigger?
Edit, how do you hide it again? thanks
Edit2; i hard reset (clear storage) and its no longer showing. Hope there will be an easier way soon. Thanks

Do you mean reinstall the patch to hide it again? I know you have to reinstall after a hard reset if you want to show the ext rom again. I was talking about hiding it after you have run the patch to unhide it.

all inclusive with patch rom (wm5)

is it possible to make an already full patched(button fix,camera,bluetooth,etc) rom with all basic programs (such as mms client,stk,backlight,etc)?
i think yes but i'm not able to make it..it will be very usefull for newbies such me..
with this full rom you do not need to post lots of duplicated threads and all will works since the beginning..
yeah i would like that to,
so we only have to install it without patching and so
very good idea!!!!
but now, apart the Wiki, there is a list of all patchs that must be installed?!
'cause I don't have enough time to read alle the pages in WM5 problem resolutions thread
well,
so far, i created a project for a extended rom under wm2005.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_WM5_Extended_ROM
Butt im stuck, it will not install off the rom after a hard reset.
If this would be working we do not have to worry anymore if we forgot or lost our sd card for the neccesary patches.
i think yes
i can make a list but someone has to do that
i think tha the 'default' are:
camera fix
wm5_v3 fix
button fix
midi with album fix
missing system programs (mycpl.rar)
traylauncher
wifi programs
sim manager
and a set of default programs:
pdf reader
xscaler
pocketplus
pocketrar
etc..
I would say no, i'd rather have the choice to install what patches i want. For instance if i dont use MMS or prefer the soft keys of WM5. The way it is now you can configure the device just as you want. Getting a working extended rom you can customise would be my choice. I definitely wouldnt want Pocketplus installed by default on my device.
It has to work first.
So anybody already found a working autorun.exe and config.txt files?
I Tried alot of those two, but still not able to get it working under te extended rom after a hard reset.

Yes i dont have to use it; but if the patches are no longer released separately then i have no choice. If there is a choice of all-in-one rom and non-patched that will be ok. But you have to think of who creates the rom, it may be easier just to maintain one rom version. I guess we have to wait and see..
@pimbo have you tried the autorun from the K-Jam extended rom? May be different from the Universal files. Its here ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/

Not yet, preparing my device now, autorun is 17kb from this one
setup is 104kb, looks common, exept the dates are a bit older.
Manually launching the autorun of files on the extended rom will work, so i guess that i have to do a hardreset again, thats what i going to do later the evening. lol 8)
:evil: :evil:
No luck. wil not automaticly run.
Still need to make the rom visible and run the autorun.exe for the installs.
But this is the nearest solution for now i guess.
So you still need a single cabfile on a sd card to unhide your rom and install all files on there.
If anybody knows the bytes to change in the nbk or nbf files or maybe in the bootstrap, the adaption could be completed and the patches would automaticly install after a hardreset. .
please don't OT

dev can make all in one rom and single patch

i for one would love an all encompassing rom patch. reading through all the duplicate posts and other resolutions is a real hassle for noobs. we see the same questions being asked every 3 days or so and it just creates more clutter for the other noobs to sift through. i figure a lot of those fixes should be included in the next patch of the current wm5 rom anyhow if people rather wait for that to come around.

did not work, did the autorun in a folder called 2577. cab files on the root.
did a hard reset, but would still not install.
The screen of the 3sec before install wont pop up
But after i made my extended rom visible, it automaticly runs after a soft reset.(the 3sec screen pops up )

Wizard ROM ported to BA - v1.0-ToMa discussion

I think this deserves its own topic. Original post from Tuatara:
Hi everyone ...
Sorry, I've run out of time for providing you with an updated ROM which I wanted to have feature complete. I'm off on vacation tomorrow for 2 weeks, and can't keep working on it until I'm back.
I've been playing around with many things (adding/removing files, fixing the Midlet Manager, updating Camera, etc.) but I haven't got the ROM to the point where I feel it's 100% ready for others - but having said that, I've uploaded it to XDA Dev, and you're welcome to give it a try and see if it improves things for you.
This is MAINLY an update from Mamaich's v2a ROM, which does contain the Quantum Timing Patch, and the Performance Tweaks.
I've also made a few filesystem changes - predominantly removing the Midlet Manager (which wasn't working), applied all of the Performance Tweaks as per the thread (and a few more), changed the default startup elements to suit my tastes (at the moment), and added some useful programs and details to the ROM. (psShutXP, Running Programs, Shortcuts to missing elements, etc.)
The ROM is in /Uploads/Blue Angel/wm5_test/Tuatara_v2a_Custom.zip
Inside the ZIP file is the nk.nba file, along with the updated registry files (boot.rgu, default.rgu, and user.rgu) which have been merged in. I've unfortunately forgotten to include initflashfiles.dat in the ZIP, but that file is directly available from inside the ROM anyways.
The ZIP also contains a different EXTROM - only the missing files, camera, and midlet manager are needed now, and there is no warning about publisher on installation anymore. You can obviously customize the EXTROM cfg.txt file to your liking, and install anything and everything all at once.
Additionally the ROM itself still has some additional space for applications, so if you want to cook your own, there is some space available to add more.
Sorry I won't be able to answer any questions about this ROM, or handle issues on it for two weeks, so it's up to you if you want to try it (or just decompose it and look at the changes).
Enjoy, and I hope everything goes well.
Regards,
Robert.

Personal thoughts: I think this ROM gives some performance boost indeed, not much, but it is noticable. Nearly every bug is fixed now, only the bluetooth disconnect issue is left. My BA is fianlly shows itself disconnected when i take it off the cradle (with the previous ROMs, it often showed that it is still connected).
Enabling SmartDialing
Hi, I've tried this ROM & this definitely faster! Thanks!
But I can't seem to enable SmartDialilng by removing the "_" from the mfc80u.dll_ and msvcr80.dll_ files for SmartDial will start to work? These 2 files are missing from this ROM but even after I've copied these 2 files into the \Windows folder, SmartDialing still doesn't work. Any ideas?

I downloaded the new Rom and having a little trouble trying to download to my SX66. I have upgraded and downgraded the WM5 on my SX66 several times. I was wondering since the rom file is nba instead of nbf does that make a huge difference. I admit have have not messed around with my device data cause I find that a little complicated. I usaully use the MA_Upgrade cause I don't have to tweak too much. Any suggestions?

In this case, you should use the harder way. Read step 4 of the upgrading process (see wiki) to upgrade via BaUpgradeUt.exe.

The nk.nba file needs to be converted back to nk.nbf regardless of whether you use MA_Upgrade or BA_Upgrade. I use MA_Upgrade. There is an modelid entry of the USER.rgu that should be changed to PH20B1. I'm not sure whether these *.rgu files need to be copied to the \windows dir or added back into the nk.nba file. Any thoughts KTamas, i'm thinking the later.

You don't have to do anything with RGU files at all. You need to use xda3nbftool (with editfix.bat if you want) to patch the ROM.

Cingular 8125 users: 217 ROM w/ Compact Framework 2 on ftp

I've uploaded a 2.17 ROM that has .NET Compact Framework 2 integrated. The files for CF2 are in the ROM, and the necessary registry entries are created via a cab file that is part of the extended ROM. If you bypass execution of the ext ROM customizations, you won't have the necessary registry keys for CF2 to function.
I should probably repeat that: If you bypass execution of the ext ROM customizations, you won't have the necessary registry keys for CF2 to function. (nor will you have the Cingular customizations including GPRS and MMS settings).
The ROM is based on the 2.17 version that has lots 'o extra ringers and themes, and OmapClock. Makes tatertots too.
If you don't know what CF2 is and have never installed software that requires it (not much does..the most popular is probably WiFiFoFum) then there's no need to flash to this ROM. However if you do use applications that require CF2, you'll benefit from the storage space savings by having CF2 in ROM.
For first-time upgraders from stock devices, I beg of you, please, no matter what you read about successful flashes without CID unlocking, do yourself (and my inbox) a favor and CID unlock anyway. =)
The ROM is available here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_WWE_RNGRS_OCLOCK_CF2.exe
I may create one based on 2.08 at some point down the road.
Thanks, and enjoy. and whatnot. and what have you. and stuff.
EDIT: fixed link since it's been moved. Not sure why it was put in a Cingular subdir of the main Cingular dir..
Sorry to be the total noob...
I installed the custom_ruu_wizard_217_aku2_cingular_wwe. (BTW, a great piece of work).
Do I need to downgrade to the stock Cingular rom before flashing this rom?

I for one would appreciate a 2.8 version of the same. Thanks for all your efforts.
Still no luck extracting the A2DP stuff and including it with the 2.17 version eh?

how to rerun customizations
is it possible to run the customization routines later (after the first reboot from RMO upgrade)? I wonder if this would work (to preserve prior settings/applications):
Backup using SPB
Install new 2.17 rom on top of old 2.17 rom
cancel customizations
install backup file (which will overwrite registry)
run new customization to add CF2 to registry
Or, can you upload the CAB with the CF2 reg entries so it can be run again later?
thanks,
jason
Summiter, I tried the 2.17 ROM with Cingular customizations, ringers, themes, and OmapClock last night. (I unlocked CID, and SIM as well just in case.) It worked great. Nice job and many thanks!

I removed CF2, backed up, then installed this ROM and then reloaded my back up. Did I lose my CF2 registry settings by reloading the back up of a non-CF2 system? My WiFiFoFum2 doesn't work now but I don't know how to tell if the CF2 is loaded properly.

That's what happened - you wrote over your registry with the one that no longer has the CF2 keys. When I get home in a couple hours I'll attach the cab file to my reply that will recreate them.

Eureka.
PS Not the 2.8 but 2.17.
Ok,
I must be an idiot. I've downloaded the ROM and it doesn't have CF2, ringers, the extra themes, overclock, etc. I tried it earlier today - then just to make sure I pulled it down and flashed it again - no go.

It won't help you if your flash to the CF2 ROM was not fully successful. This file is for folks who's flash was successful but have restored their registry from a backup of a non-CF2 ROM.

hi summiter,
a couple questions sir for your GREAT GREAT ROM (MUCH FASTER).
do i just click on it and it just runs at that speed? so if i click on 252 it runs at that speed forever until i click back on 200?
also, how do i know if i didn't bypass the customization?
thanks a million for a job well done.

When you click one of the links, it will set the clock to that speed until you suspend the device by pressing the power button briefly or it times out.
What I've done is map my camera button to the 252 link, so when I need an extra boost I just hit the button. It will stay overclocked until I suspend the device.
If you want it overclocked always and forever, you'll have to call OmapClock with a notification event which requires a 3rd party app to set up. Read through the OmapClock threads to find out more.
I like the having it rest to stock speed on suspend since it conserves battery by only being overclocked when needed.

Ok,
I must be an idiot. I've downloaded the ROM and it doesn't have CF2, ringers, the extra themes, overclock, etc. I tried it earlier today - then just to make sure I pulled it down and flashed it again - no go.
Like I said, I'm probably doing something wrong, but...

If you bypass execution of the ext ROM customizations, you won't have the necessary registry keys for CF2 to function. (nor will you have the Cingular customizations including GPRS and MMS settings).

hi. at the risk of sounding like an idiot as well, now do you NOT bypass the customization? thank you.
is it the thing that installs as soon as you configure tapping the four corners? i didn't even know that was bypassable.

Yep - the customizations run after you get past the alignment stuff. It's the part where you are locked out of your device while a perdy progress bar takes its sweet ass time as it installs countless cab files.
If you were so inclined, you can bypass customization by pressing the soft reset button as soon as the poorly worded notification pops up saying "It will now customize....". I don't recommend that.
WiFiFoFum working?
Has anyone successfully run WiFiFoFum with this ROM? I had a seemingly successful flash (I had the long wait for installation after the alignment on the first boot). Everything seems to work except WiFiFoFum. I haven't tried anything else that requires CF2 yet, but WiFiFoFum gives me an error:
Code:
This application (WiFiFoFum.exe) requires a newer version of the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework than the version installed on this device.
When I click "Details" I get:
Code:
WiFiFoFum.exe
InvalidProgramException
I even installed the cab file provided above to make sure the registry was right.
Essentially I'd like to know if this is known to work okay so I'll know that I should try flashing it again.

P.S. Thanks for all of the work summiter - I don't think I could have done this myself...

Appears as though the flash didn't take. If you execute cgacutil.exe in the Windows directory, what CF versions are reported?
What ROM did you have prior to this one?

NEW ROM FOR s730er(20279)

Dear all:

Sorry , I dont know how to insert a link and images.
Who will help me?
Mirror
Ive Created A Mirror For This Rom Due To The Difficulty Ive Just Had Downloading It.
Heres The Mirror Anyway...

Hey xucue,
Both links doesn't seem to work here.
The downloadlink gives me a page with much chinese characters. I tried de red button but this doesn't work.
Would you post te correct links or maybe upload it to another server?
Thank you.
ps: wat is te free ram?
Oh sorry OllieD's,
Didn't see your your post.
Think this page was in my cache memory.
Downloaded, tried unsuccessfully, get stuck on 19% and then gives me 262 error, after that bricks the phone. To get the phone back, had to reflash with original htc firmware. Tried 2nd time with another way, no success stays at 0%, i mean without running sspl. Am i doing something wrong?
thanks for your link,dear dllied.
to update the rom,you have to make sure your wings' spl is 0.91.
i have test it,and it work well,so i share it to all.
available ram is same to office 6.0.
in my other rom,the available ram have 20 with sd card after flash rom.but it is only contain chinese language.
Yes i have spl 0.91, Had it since update with Alcaline's rom. But still same stuff.
rom is running! battery load over usb is disabled - go to settings an change it. every thing is ok!
i wonder why there is no rom with phonecanvas 2g for wings. also, why is the original s740 weather gone?
but: rom is cool and fast!
many thanks
ok tell me if i am doing something wrong in steps:
1. Unlock the device with sda-unlock
2. Backup-just in case.
3. Put spl-0.91-wings on the phone and run it, accepting everything, then when it says usb, unplug and replug usb cable
4. Run Rom updateutility.exe on pc
Then it goes up to 19% everytime and gives me 262 error. Triying recovery because phone boots to 3 colour mode, as there is no rom in it. Says recovery successful. The flashing again, stays at 0% then gives mee same 262 error.
Then the only way to get the phone back is to flash with original htc firmware. So what am i doing wrong?
may this helps: my ROMUpdateUtility wasn't right. take the nbh and put it in a folder with another one - from an another rom!
Is there any way to get the eT9.Wings.0414.kmap.txt included in this rom? I need the keymapping for norwegian language..!

I found a german keyboard layout file for the wings: http://pocketpc.ch/showpost.php?p=217070&postcount=7 It also adds support for keys like ä, ü and ö.
Just copy the file into the windows directory of your S730. Then open your favourite registry editor, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Tegic/eT9/IME/KeyboardLayoutDlls and change the value of 000007FF to eT9.Wings.0407.kmap.txt.

Is there anything special I have to do in order to be able to flash my S730 with this rom? I see that some people had problems with it..
@Zeerocool, do you like the rom? Recommended to upgrade from Alkaline's build?
Ok, i think i am unlucky. Done evrything that i possibly could think of. Tried putting .nbh file into different rom update folders - no success, tried changing updateromutility.exe from various roms, tried customruu - no success, tried renaming .nbh file into latin only letters - no success. Tried with 3 different Windows systems: XP, Vista and 7. 2 different pcs. This just doesnt work, gets stuck on 19% always, all other roms upgrade fine, but not this one. Please help.
nice one, quick and stable.
I remade SlidingPanel CPRs to support Calibri,
1) install Calibri mod by NRGZ first
2) copy CPRs to your \Windows folder (replace existing)
I also add BaseHue and ClearType apps I found lacking
Also, I made my own Home layout without Profiles (you can easily access via On/Off key) and with compressed size for speed
I add regedit for your convenience, here are the mods you might like:
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\CallStart to 0
* HKLM\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\limit to 65535 (tweak)
* HKLM\System\Inbox\RecipientAutoComplete and set/change the following DWORD: MaxSuggestions=4 (for example)
oh, and you can run Security app to all off so that you can rearrange Windows folder without restrictions + batterymeter that is a line on display top + reboot option added to On/Off button menu
all in the ZIP attached
+ I give you a new desktop theme, just place scheme in Application data/home and pics in \Windows
Finally success.

[Q] some .exe that could be removed from most himalaya rom's ?

i have found some .exe in most himalaya rom's "\Windows" folder that seem too be not needed so they could be deleted from future kitchens and stuff.
anyway here they are with screenshots..
1.sms_alert_fix.exe-pretty obvious.
2.SimLock.exe-i think something to do with unlocking sims (eventhough i've never used it).
3.cgacutil.exe-it shows you what version of NetFrameWork you are running (not sure if it gets installed as defult when NetFrameWork is installed.
4.hwhelp.exe-seems to be left from the keyboard option of character recognizer.
5.wrlsmgr.exe-maybe a part of the himalaya wireless driver.
can these be removed or deleted safely?
any ideas?

SMS_Alert_Fix will revive your phone when you will get a sms.
Simlock is really weird.
cgacutil is funking needed.
hwhelp is not needed but I don't want to know what will happen when deleted
wrlsmgr is needed for people who have SDIO Wifi card which himalaya support.
thats it then SimLock.exe is getting deleted and i will see what happens!
Here is what I removed to get free sectors in My WM6.1. The only way to learn effectively is: trial and error. Next try to read and understand the registry. It's all in there.

msim is keyboard right?
wisplite is totally unneeded, you can delete it but don't forget to delete registry entries in shell
also i know these can be deleted bcuz they are to do with error reporting and feedback-
DwXfer.dll
dw.exe
ceipui.exe
and also this-
BackPack.dll
hey muckelmaus these are needed for keyboard-
msim.dll
msim.96.dll
this for the 4 dots you have to tap when you first start up a new rom-
welcome.exe
and this is one of your splash screens-
welcomehead.96.png
and this is used for the search device for file function-
shfind.exe
otherwise i cannot see any problem with deleteing the rest of them...
i have also found this on a other part of xdadev-
*
Hd.dll
*
Aosaxst0.dll
*
Mencfilt.dll
Here Hd.dll and Aosaxst0.dll are used for M$ debug. Like some times on pc the apps close itself, and windows asks you to send the details to M$ (example. error number : 893647). We ( users) don’t know what it means, only the developer in M$ know. But I never saw these files report anything to us. SO!!! We don’t need them! they are trash!!
Now Mencfilt.dll is for storage card encrypt. If you don’t use it, you can delete it as well. Have you had this experience where after flashing a new Rom every thing in storage card can’t show any more!!!! but its still use the space in the card. Yes it's because of this file only.
**NOTE: There are some device in which removing these files causes system issues so be careful. But only a few devices

As I used a german 'qwertz' keyboard and a smaller splash screen, these files are just overwritten in my rom. These are backups.
I skip the Touchscreen alignment at first bootup (it doesn't work anymore after changing initflashfiles.dat)
Did you ever try to use * as a joker with the search program? Totally useless, so it is overwritten by a better app, renamed to: shfind.exe.

It didn't bother, everything worked 'till I deleted some files in startmenue and rearanged the programs. But noone told me that he missed the feature. Approximately 300 users over all. Even if some of them only tested. For me it was OK, and I'm still running it from the very first day, without any need of a new hard reset 'till now.
muckelmaus, why do you have a smaller startup screen?
I reduced the size of the files to get some kB/sectors free, as my rom is full of third party apps.

As I remember you can put JPG file as welcomehead
there is 2 solutions:
Save as jpg file and then just rename into .png
Save as jpg and change registry entry in redist dpi 96
by the way:
look at this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen]
"MSBitmap"="\\windows\\welcomehead.96.png"
"MSTimeout"=dword:7530 ; 30000 milliseconds
"CarrierBitmap"="\\windows\\welcomehead.96.png"
"CarrierTimeout"=dword:7530 ; 30000 milliseconds

maybe we could have 2 splash screens and change their duration on screen
So, when combined with bootloader 2 splashes (as I post tutorial to change it easly) we can have 4 splashes.
Good for doing PC boot images as I did before hima died my work in attachment
(I know that hima does not have AMD Althon but it seems good)
