At&t Wm5 Rom

Does anyone have the factory AT&T WM5 ROM?
I believe that Palm did put out an execute file which restores the factory AT&T ROM, saw this in this group, but it was removed. Anyone have it
I would like to try out WM6 but would like to be able to restore it back if I need to send it in for warranty issues.
Thanks in advance

I am looking for the same thing. If I find it I'll post here. If someone else can point us in the right direction that would be great. Thanks.

Found the post that had the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1410191&postcount=3
I don't know if there's any difference between the Cingular and AT&T Roms for WM5, but at least it's a WM5 rom image.

Hi,
been trying to download it, doesn't seem to work? Can anyone re-upload it?
Does anyone know the difference between the AT&T and Cingular versions?
Thanks

I just downloaded it from the second link in that post. There's nothing wrong with it. You usually just have to wait a minute or two to download. Then depending on their bandwidth, it may take a little while to download. Not trying to say you're dumb, but just make sure that you choose "free" at the bottom when redirected to Rapidshare, then enter in the security letters and hit download once the timer runs out.

any one know what the difference between the AT&T version and the Cingular?

Branding as far as I can tell

Little help?

First off I want to thank EVERYONE on this forum for the work they do. Know that people like me really REALLY appreciate it... I have a better working ROM then the default one now, the radio was updated and working nicely but i HATE the splash screen with a passion...
I tried to follow the directions to make my own but i keep getting errors...
anyways, if i put up a picture can someone make it for me please? the screen you see first... as its booting up.
Thank you!!

Hi:
I have no clue how to make a splash screen (sorry ), but if no one is able to help you make one, you can always use Kaiser Tweaks to disable the splashcreen.
I know this is not exactly what you had in mind, but it may help.
If you are interested in doing that, just look up Kaiser Tweaks here on the board. It is a free and very useful app, which will allow you to make several wonderful changes to you phone.
Anyway, hope this helps

Here You Go
Here is your splash screen. Unzip the file, plug your kaiser into usb cable, and run customruu, which is contained in the folder.
edit: I think you should have hardspl installed before flashing this

Thank you SOOOOO much! Mine is already taken care of with the HARDSPL thing. It has a custom ROM on it that one of the guys on here I'm friends with helped me to set up. the GPS doesnt work all that well but other then that its a LOT more functional.
I'm semi-retarded and could not figure out how to make that customruu thing with the picture I wanted. thanks again.

Have a read of this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334907&highlight=Splash+Screen
It explains the process it quite simply.

OEM/CAB for Push to Talk (PTT) on AT&T Tilt/Kaiser?

Greeting All, I promise I wouldn't resort to starting a new thread unless I had exhausted all other options. I've searched 25+ different things on Google, read literally hundreds of thread and thousands of posts learning and creating. I've been a Mogul user for a year, but have now moved on to the Kaiser/Tilt. I've made a fantastic ROM and love everything about it except for one thing - it's missing PTT. I own a computer business and our techs use this religiously. I'd love to have it back, but have searched high and low for an OEM or CAB. I even tried extracting it myself from the latest AT&T stock ROM, only to have it never install right after creating the CAB.
I've hit road blocks and dead ends all over the forum. 4 times I found what I needed and all times the CAB/OEM/RAR no longer existed. Googling the file name returned nothing. The best I have to go on is this: I saw in a discontinued thread there was an OEM package from "_Alex_'s UltraClean ATT 1.60.502.3 ROM OEM Packages.rar", namely "PTT_2_0_614_713". It's even in the screenshots in the WIKI, but I can't find this package in v5.1 of the posted OEM packages. I've hunted everywhere for it. Forums, FTPs, Google... either I'm just completely missing it (possible - been at this problem for around 15 hours) or it's just not there anymore.
Can anyone possibley provide me with a link to the UltraClean RAR download? Or at the very least that specific OEM package? Even a CAB of it would suffice - I'll make an OEM. I'm about ready to give up and *gasp* flash a stock ROM so I can have PTT back until I get this solved. Please, someone point me in the right direction if you can. Thanks so much for everything the major players do on this forum. Love it!

This is extracted from Hermes, see if it works!

Very cool, thanks for the help. I have the same files from the original AT&T ROM, yet I was having problems converting it to a working CAB/OEM. However, your attachment helped me run across something else that might work. I searched for "PTT=2_0_703_715" instead of "PTT_2_0_703_715" and came up with a few more hits. I think I can build an OEM from it and eventually a CAB. If so, I'll be sure to post it all here for anyone like me.
Thanks so much!
::EDIT:: - I just realized that this IS a complete OEM. The file I was missing before was marked as system so it wasn't showing up at first. (When I recreated it manually, I got the error of it's already there...) I'll see if making this into a CAB works on the cooked ROM. If so, you're my hero. If not, you've still given me something to work with!! Thanks again.
::EDIT AGAIN:: - Well, creating a CAB from those files didn't seem to work, but it's entirely possible I just did that wrong. It installed successfully (so it claims), but I can't get the button to remap properly either via Registry during install or manually assigning it to PTT. (Mapping it to Comm Manager and MS Voice CMD works perfectly though.) Starting PTT manually (from the PTT folder under Windows after install) seems to work at first. It warns of possible extra charges and starts to provision service, but it never finishes. No error message (that I can make out... there is a scrambled text message which is what currently happens when someone who has PTT tries to message me or their status changes, etc). I'll try cooking it into a ROM and see what comes of that. FWIW, I also tried building the additional files from a stock AT&T Tilt firmware. I'm hoping someone else can come through with the original OEM files I was after (pictured in the Kaiser Kitchen Wiki from _Alex_) so I can try to turn them into a CAB. Otherwise, I'll keep tinkering with what I have to work with and see what happens.

Sorry for the double post, but this i something that may help others running across this thread - rusyn posted a cab that might work. Unfortunately I haven't tested it yet, but it seems like they had luck! The thread is HERE. I'm skeptical if it maps the PTT button correctly because it looks like the same files I packed myself into a CAB, yet it gave me a bit of grief with that. (Of course, I very well could have done it wrong, but it was far from my first CAB creation.)
Either way, give it a go if you were hunting like me.

Noob In desperate need of HELP!

Well as the title says I am in desperate need of help. Now I have just gotten the Touch Diamond and I am not happy with they way things look. I liked the phone by looking at all the Youtube videos and decided this was my next phone. Well little that I knew every video was either a different carrier style phone or has been modded. Now I am looking to do the same thing, but I am looking for someone who is experienced in this field to give me some one on one support. Now I am not a complete noob when it comes to computers but when it comes to the phone yes I am have never messed with modding a phone. This is my first PDA phone. So if someone can either send me a PM or just reply here that would be great. My main goal is to get the most out of my phone. Thanks in advance and hope to hear from you guys soon. Thanks

There is a ton of info on this site and on ppcgeeks.com so the best thing to do is read,read,read. Then you can learn what you like and decide what you want to do. Good Luck!!

Thanks. I have been to numerous sites and they all say what the stuff can do but there is no Tutorial on how to add stuff and config it. Thats where I am running into problems. I would like to change my TF3D screen off this purple color. I was able to finally get my weather to work in my area instead of major cities. Now I just want to mess with the look of the phone. I have the Diamond TF3D Config installed but all the themes I want to install on the phone wont come up in the Path folder. Thats another area I could not find a Tutorial on. If I had one of those or at least a video of how to do it that would be great.

flash a energy rom, they are great out of the box and they have a custom look to them. just follow the on screen instructions and you cant go wrong. just make sure you flash hardspl first.

Ok, Thanks. Now I know I have seen some out there that wont work for my phone. Can you tell me which one will work. I have a Verizon Diamond and I dont want to brick it.

I don't think there is a HardSPL/Unlocker for the Verizon version.
You may only be able to tweak your shipped rom.

Ok, well I am not having a problem I would like to get solved. Once I get this solved I am all set. Also do I have to unlock my phone to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.5? Here is a Link to my problems with the weather.
