Can anyone tell me how to use this rom
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/Tmobile/RUU_Prodigy_2170702_217_20710_TMO_US.exe
and put it on a xdaIIs?
Do I need to use a noid.exe and if so wihci one should I use?
You can't do it like that - it would be lovely if you could but a rom for the Wizard would need to be ported for it to work on the BlueAngel. To try it would give you a very nice doorstopper.
Ahh thanks for the warning!! So can this be ported from the wizard to the xdaIIs?
I would love to use the WM5 but as far as I have learned WM5 does not support Blackberry Enterprise aka Instant mail, and I have not found any CAB files that will work on my XDAIIs with WM5 installed. I am getting pretty good at upgrading and downgrading tho :-(
All of the TuMa editions are using a Wizard Port (allbeit an old version). They are really quite stable now and I think we're getting close to a rom to stick with
As far as Blackberry support, I haven't seen a BA WM5 rom with it however I imagine it could be ported but then again, I am no porter!
Kind regards

I found a German BB connect cab that will install on the BA WM5 that ivan made but right at the very end of the install it says cannot load instal module. You click ok and the program tells you it installed. When you go to find the BB settings eve in the BA it is under \windows and when you try to execute it the unit hangs up.
I assume that this cab is looking for the T-Mobile info to complete the install so we would have to have one of the very bright individuals in this forum find out what it is looking for exactly and fix that part of it. The BA WM5 would work with BB connect
Sorry about creating a topic, but I can't find anywhere to ask.
Here I have some questions which I don't understand. Somebody please explains for me:
- What is AKU? It has any difference from ROM?
- BlueAngel doesn't has WM05 ROM, then where does it come from? Is it ported from others series (like Universe)?
Love you all ^_^
- AKU is like a patch for the WM5, take it like the SP2 for WinXp
- BA's WM5 are cooked up from the gurus here. There are attempts to get WM5 onto BA, officially, and "drivers" are written for it. Although the official finally dropped the idea of WM5 on BA, these "drivers" has been leaked to the wild, and the gurus picked them up to cooked up the WM5 for BA.
Hanmin, is my own extrapersonal opinion the these 'drivers' has bin leaked to the wild, like u say, just to create a test environment to valuate if is there the possiblity to solt an official WM2005 for this PDA...
Just an opinion
Thanks these guys very much.
But I still have some unclear things here:
- So where does the "drivers" sit in the ROM? Is that EXROM?
- According to the post of hanmin, then AKU3.2 absolutely is the ROM for BA ?
(Maybe this forum should have a topic like "History of WM5's BA" -_-")
I feel very confusing now.
- I have very vague memory on this, but as far as I can remember, these 'drivers' are information on how to function the hardware of BA. As such, these are definately sits in the main ROM, not the Ext ROM. Ext ROM stuff are generally not system vital stuff.
- AKU is a general term for WM5 upgrade, it does not tie with any device. However, the upgrade files does ties to specific device, example, AKU_version 1234_ROM_setup_for_charmer.exe.
Why do you want to learn history here? There is a good reading if you want to. Go to Magician forum, there is a thread on why there aren't (can't) WM5 for Magician, probably you can find the 'driver' reason for that.
Hie hie. You don't have to explain what drivers are
But there's nobody answer this question for me >_< :
- Who is the release-er of WM05 for BA? HTC or Microsoft
- Is WM05 for BA offical or unoffical?
Many thks
(Helmi, why don't you explain for this poor man? )
As I said in my first post up there, "BA's WM5 are cooked up from the gurus here.", not HTC, not Ms
unofficial
Wow, I impressed myself tonight. I read this site every day, and have been doing so since last year when I bought my Cingular 8125. Tonight, I decided to cook my own custom Rom, and low and behold, the flash went perfectly, and all aspects of it installed without a flaw, even the custom extended rom I cooked. I learned all of this by simply reading through these threads.
I'm not too sure what this communities sharing ettiquite is, and would like some opinions and feedback from the authors whos work I borrowed. This Rom will not be shared until I can further personally tweak it. My custom Rom details are as folows....
OS - AKU 3.2 (extracted from Faria's Beta 4 Rom) Faria - I do not want to use, nor will I share this rom, because OS was extracted from your masterpiece. This Rom was just to test, and will not hit anyone elses device.
IPL - 2.26 (extracted from latest T-Mobile Rom)
SPL - 2.26 (extracted from latest T-mobile Rom)
GSM - 2.47 (Again, came from Faria's 3.2 Beta 4)
Extended Rom - My Own - Since I'm Cingular, included the GPRS and MMS settings, also added Memmaid, Battery Status, Wireless today plugin, and Molskis Performance and Registry Tweaks)
I like the simplicity of this rom so far, I have tested everything out there, and some Rom include too many goodies that I dont use, and others dont have enough. This Rom is fast and functinal.
Faria & Molski: I will not share this rom because your hard work and efforts are included in it. I would like to see where I could find the base AKU 3.2 Rom, and start over, so all work and everything included in this Rom is truly original.
Feedback would be great!
if you decide to release this rom for cingular i'd be intersted right now im using molski's 30mb rom on my cingular 8125 and i love it.
So to know that you based some of your rom off his and faria's its like a dream
It's good to hear, more of us should follow your example and read more. There's a lot of people that come into this forum and ask the same questions that have been asked 1000 times and all because they don't bother to read a bit, while there's no such thing as a stupid question..... asking the same questions over and over again is really annoyies most people.
good for you! see what a little searching gets you these days...perhaps others might learn from this (well who am I kidding right?)
I like the respect/props being given to Faria & Molski too...perhaps if you come up with some that great and they both give their consent then others could enjoy your ROM
well done

I think that it's quite obvious. There's so many threads about the same stuff and on the other hand the "Search" really sucks for almost every forum script there is available, also for vBulletin. Some of you write really nice how-to's, they are really much easier to deal with than reading the whole thread with (very necessary) comments like "not working here" between. Wiki would also be better place to keep basic stuff (in this case cooking and updating ROM) data available. My bottom line is (I guess ) The forum structure should be re-designed...something like this:
Wizard: basic questions, usage
Wizard: software
Wizard: accessories
Wizard: ROM updating
G3
G4
Wizard: ROM cooking
G3
G4
Wizard: ROM releases
etc...
Just my opinion, don't kill me And don't get me wrong..you all are doing incredible work here and you deserve all the credits. This all is just too BIG for the current forum structure...
Hey all
My charmer has arrived, and im picking it up tomorrow.
I recently had the joy of playing with two different XDA II handsets, one with an AKU 2.0 rom update and the other with an AKU 3.5 update on it. the AKU 3.5 both looked and performed a LOT better.
What i want to do is the following:
Cook and release a streamlined minimalist AKU 3.x (any AKU 3 version rom, be it 3.1,3.3,3.5)
however, my knowledge in this department is a little lacking.
is there ANYBODY in here who runs a charmer and has a little knowledge in cooking roms?
I'm thinking it would be as simple as the following:
1) extract AKU2.0 ROM from Charmer
2) Remove 'OS' part from the rom
3) extract AKU3.5 ROM from prophet (as this is the closest device)
4) insert the OS from the prophet into the charmer rom
5) Patch with drivers for charmer
6) recompile and away you go!
is there ANYBODY here who is willing to help?!
thank you
helmi_c is seems to be working on it. I have downloaded his AKU3 rom with nottice that it is not yet designed for regular user - and it really isn't Spent two days ressurecting my poor charmer...

ive been looking at it too. only 2 things ive noticed is a problem with the sound and internet sharing apart from that its seems fine.
well, i'll be happy if you can provide me a copy for testing - i will send you feedback, of course
Hey
well, once my charmer comes back from repair, needless to say, i will be beta testing a good, clean, stable aku 3.3 wm5 release!
dave, could you provide some sort of quick guide on how to modify the extended rom please?!
thanx
Oh boy, if this gets uploaded would i be able to upgrade to it?
I have tried a few times with dave's other rom but had no luck as i cant unlock my phone due to, i believe, upgraing using the tmobile original file. before cid unlocking it. As i understand it i now have v2 bootloeaders which cant be cid unlocked.
Hi
Hows development of this going now? not heard anything, have PM'd Helmi
would really like to release an AKU3.x rom for the charmer, would be perfect!
an have you any response from helmi? waiting for aku 3.x so long
Well, who needs Aku3 anyway if there's a rom with wm6? ;-)
I wrote a mail to T-Mobile (Germany) and asked them about any planned updates for the Charmer. As soon as I get a response, I'm gonna post it of course.
youser, i wouldnt hold out any hope for a wm6 rom for anything currently out apart from the VERY high end like the universal/hermes
i havent had a response from helmi yet, going to wait out a little while longer.
dave106 appears to have had a 'semi-working' rom on his device albeit minor things not working like camera, but im *hoping* that shouldn't be too difficult to fix.
if dave or helmi could please please please please please (pretty) please post an update on the status of an AKU 3.x update it would be extremely helpful!!
well i'll be jumping ship soon, replacing the casing and ebaying up my charmer as im moving onto the trinity.
is there NO hope for any charmer users at the moment?! will you not help us develope a little?!
if you could provide me with a *test* rom, that has bugs in it, i could probably work on ironing out the bugs (worth mentioning that i only use my charmer solely as a PDA, not as a phone)
please dave! we need help from the masters of xda-devs!
Well, helmi's aku 3.3 rom is available on pdamobiz.com. Speed is excellent, but unfortunately this ROM contains a lot of stuff included :-(
If you can live without some regional settings, which are missing (eg. czech), this ROM might be useful for you.
hi mates. is it possible to upgrade my Xda IIs with Windows mobile 5 or 6.? right now it has 2003.
please help me if its possible. or tell me some site where i will get some step-by-step proceidure.
Regards
I know that there is a WM6 for BA out there for a week, but have not tried out yet. Try search around here in this forum first for the WM5, which is very rich
There is NO WM6 for the XDAIIs (Blue Angel).
There are numerous WM5 ROMS for the BA though.
Everything you need to know is here:

There is, and I have it as well, dude. Some Vietnamese at handheldvn.com forum are using it and discussing quite a bit on it. Myself have not tried it out, because I have no time for the moment.
(http://www.handheld.com.vn/forum/showthread.php?t=55894)
link for the ROM is here:
http://www.4shared.com/file/15740822/f5c66922/ROM_53505_AKU_352_WM6_.html
I am surprise why it is not announced in this welknown forum?? Is the one at handheldvn a fake one?

Thanx a lot dude. but is that file is in english? i dont think so. and also it will work for my XDA IIS. and also in case of some trouble. should i downgrade to my old rom.? just let me know. i also have the old rom image.
Yes, English
The forum is in Vietnamese, but the ROM is entirely in English. I have seen some screen shots, and they are all English. Have fun, dude. I am waiting for a vacation when I can make change to this one
I doubt it is windows mobile 6, the guy has not shown the version in any of there screeshots and apart from that, one of the screenshot attached here , dats xplodes R5 screenshot
if i remember well...it was said that the new rom is about 64MBs...however you can download from the link mentioned a 34Mb file in which extrom folder contains a 7Mb camera template cab...
I've tried it
I was also quite doubtful there would be an R6 for our BA, but since I'm about to re-install it, I decided to download it and give it a try.
And I confirm that it's still WM5. Some of the icons have changed, but it's still the same old thing with some WM6 icons.
Some details:
OS build: 15706.3.5.2
the default device name = PDAViet. Which is a known ROM "builder" on the UNI Forum.
Need some more testing, but all and all it seems to be working.
So, maybe it's all new, but it may have a few elements you may care for.
It works...
Hey maaan, thanks a lot, this ROM is perfect... I have Upgraded it at about 30 minutes ago, and i'm trying it.... I think it is not WM5 with WM6 icons, because everything is like in WM6....perfect, wifi works (i have tried to find wifi-net, it found it in 2 seconds...), BT too (i have tried only with my USB-BT on PC, and connect it), GUI is beautiful, nice themes.... PERFECT....
only one thing is bad - there isn't any FILE EXPLORER, but you can install total commander with active sync and then you can search your SD card or memory Phone works too (I have 1.15 Radio ROM)
And one thing which i don't like (but i had got same problem with explode ROM too) : Camera has got one white pixel.... so big white dot on the photo but nevermind..... this is super ROM Thank you again buddy...
So, it is right, it is WM5 with really realistic WM6 Interface.... but still perfect ROM
Thanks for the recent posts
Thanks all for the recent posts. I saw quite many positive applause on this version at the Vietnamese forum. Take care!
I knew WM6 doesn't yet exist for BA...
I'll give this one a miss....
yes thanks a lot. i also upgraded my O2 XDA IIS and its working perfect. great Rom . one little question. when i display my syatem info. its showing 96 MB ram instead of 127 Mb. and also. its not displaying any Extrom version.
i wrote all my info below.. so give me some info about this.
but overall the rom version is perfect thanks a lot.
ROM VERSION 5.35.05.WWE
ROM DATE 05/08/07
RADIO VERSION 1.12.00
PROTOCOL VERSION 1337.42
EXTROM VERSION

Explode please, can you upload it? Or is it possible to find it on the web?
when i was using 2003 on my O2 XDA IIS. i perform hard reset by pressing the top power button and the reset button. and now i have upgraded to wm2005 and again i am doing this. but it wont work. its only soft resetting. so anyone know how to perform hard reset. so i will get my registry setting to defaults. cause i made many mess in the registry for tweaking
