Can someone point me to a link of the TMO extended rom cab file list with descriptions for each. i searched i swear
Also, If I updated my rom and wanted to load all these cabs back on to the device can i just copy the whole backup folder to /windows/ and then the autorun will run it on reset?
thanks
search better . . .its on the wiki
the one in the wiki is dutch, is there a USA one?
what about the second part?
1. I know its based on dutch tmo rom, but most of the US cabs are much alike (based on their name)
2. autorun makes use of a registry setting (dont know out of my head, but plz do another search on config.txt and autorun) to load the correct config.txt file.
If you change that you canb use your backup and install from there.
Today I had some talks with Risidoro and Asukal about changing languages on Roms without upgrading to a whole new Rom.
Risidoro introduced me to Asukal after a question from me about Rom Cooking.
After some talking with Asukal about his "UI Language Switch Program" for Universal he gave me some files that I tested a few times.
Right now I am running a fully stable Mr. Clean 2.24a AKU2.3 Rom with dutch language, so for all dutch folks, here you go...
UPDATE: Right now I am running the latest 2.26 T-Mobile Rom, without problems!
[EDIT FRIDAY, 28th JULI]:
FINAL INSTRUCTIONS (for now....)
Definitive instructions to change the English Mr. Clean 2.24a AKU2.3 Rom into the Dutch language
- Install the Mr. Clean Rom
- Install these 5 files, I installed everything to the Main Memory, I advice you all to do the same!
1) Wizard_AKU2_NLD_mui_Tool.cab
2) NLD_Notifications_WIZ.cab
3) NLD_Today_113.cab
4) DUT_SMS.cab
5) NLD_Registry_Changes.cab
- Soft-reset your Wizard by turning it off and on (not with the Soft-Reset button!)
- Run through the (Dutch) Welcome Screen for screen alignment etc.
- Go to Settings -> Regional Settings (Instellingen -> Landinstellingen) and set it to Nederlands
- Delete the file \Windows\initobj.dat and rename \Windows\welcome.lnk to something like welcome.bak.lnk
- Delete the folder "\Program Files"
- Delete the folder "\Windows\Fonts"
- Delete the folder "\Windows\Favorites"
- Delete the folder "\Windows\Programs"
- Delete the folder "\Windows\Start Menu"
- Delete the folder "\Windows\Start Up"
- Delete the folder "\Windows\PDFfonts" (optional, but I did it to get 2MB extra free space because I don't use ClearVue PDF!)
- Remove all English folders in \My Documents (EXCEPT THE TEMPLATES FOLDER, in this folder the Camera Templates will be stored!)
So you can delete the Camera Templates from \My documents\Sjablonen
- Soft-reset your Wizard by turning it off and on (not with the Soft-Reset button!)
- Run these 2 files (located in this thread, somewhere below on the 1st page)
1) MP-Shorcut-MMS1-Voice-CV-TMUS-060404.CAB
2) NLD_MMS_FOLDER.CAB
- Done!

Molski
Realy nice!
Gonna try it and will let you know if I have the same issue
Wondering though.. ..Wil this also work on the AKU2.5 that is being developed here at the moment?
Not good, i cannot remove or rename welcome.lnk.......
Any suggestions, tried total comander and the windows explorer...
edit: Solved the problem on my own: First with total commander tap'nhold --> properties and disable the read only checkbox.
then goto shortcut tab and edit this to something....
then it is possible te rename..
Yeah not beautiful... but it works so what the heck....

It will work on AKU2.5 after some development from Asukal and some testing from me, offcourse when I got it working, you all will get it working
My litle contribution to this fantastic idea
For the Dutch T9 follow the next steps:
In the attachment are three files:
1 - dictprob.dat
2 - statdict.dat
3 - mssp2_nl.lex
Copy them to the \Windows dir and replace existing files.
Then make the following changes to the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Spell Check]
"Main_Dict"="\Windows\mssp2_nl.lex"
Restart your device and it should work like a charm
[edit]
The following location was not in my registry:
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IA Style\IA CameraWizard(Pocket PC)\3.00\"
Second, I’m not able to rename or delete the Welcom.lnk
I’m using TotalCommander, and my device is decertified. When I change the properties or rename the file it looks like everything goes well. But when I refresh the file is still there.
[/edit]
Great contribution!!
The following location:
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IA Style\IA CameraWizard(Pocket PC)\3.00\"
has to be:
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IA Style\IA CameraWizard(Pocket PC)\3.00\Strings"
I'm almost ready with the CAB file that takes care of these registry changes, including the T9 stuff.

Uncheck the read-only for this file and then go to the properties and remove the entry, OR rename the file like I did to something as welcome.bak.lnk
Here it is, the CAB file with the registry changes, with the files for T9 including one extra file (autocorrect.txt) from a dutch Rom, for (I guess) spellchecking.
I installed the file on my device and got no problems, I don't wanna say it is 100% correct, but I really guess it is, so were heading for 5 final files for installing Dutch Language on EVERY Non dutch Rom
By the way...don't forget to delete the old English subfolders of My Documents guys
I love it to be Dutch
Looks great!
I don't mind that the welcome.lnk stays. It only lets you run the welcome screen once, in Dutch. After that it doesn't show up anymore.
I followed the instructions about the ReadOnly settings, but like I said it looks like it changes the name of the file. But after a refresh it's back again
Glad to be of some help concerning the Dutch spelling
I updated my NLD_Registry_Changes.CAB file.
Because the Camera has some problems, although I change the "Frames" string, every time you select a picture template the setting is resetted.
So the solution is to delete every English subfolder of My Documents EXCEPT for Templates (!!), but on the other hand, it's not a bad idea to have al the camera templates in a seperate directory
Where is the update cab file? is it the one posted above?

Yes, but please read the 1st again, I updated the post with final instructions (for now....)
I also tested this language Pack on the new T-Mobile 2.26 Rom and I can confirm it's also working on the new Rom.
My advice for now is, don't use the Mr. Clean Rom anymore, but the new T-Mobile 2.26 Rom and don't install the Extended Rom to keep it as clean as possible (or manually select what you want to install).
Hmmm... ..just came to tell you that I also run the latest T-Mobile ROM in Dutch now. No problems so far! 8)
I really find it very cool that we don't have to wait anymore for Roms in dutch!
We just grab the latest WWE Roms and turn it into Dutch, no problem
The Mr. Clean Rom was cool to test with, but I'm happy with the 2.26 Rom.
are there any other languages?
Nope, not explictit for the Wizard, only for Universal.
These packages that I am using now were custom created by Asukal especially for the Wizard!
is it possible to do the same thing for french ?
@Molski
I think you can also remove "\Windows\Favorites" Because there is a directory called "Favorieten" for the Dutch users

Yep....you're right on that
I made my own Extended Rom with a few CAB files I created, but when I do a hard-reset and let the Customization Tools do their job it looks like none of the CAB files is installed?
I'm sure my Extended Rom is build correct (I used Faria's how-to for it), but it looks like the Registry changes that's in my CAB files are not kept in the Registry because after installing the Extended Rom it resets immediately. Can this be true? Or do I need to hardcode the installpaths in my CAB files maybe?

Already found the answer.
I added the Default_Signed_Disable_Security.CAB to the Extended Rom (as 1st file to install) and after that it worked.
Actually very logic, my CABS were not installed because they're not signed so had to disable that security first.

thats correct my friend.sorry a did not post sooner.
as for custom registry settings if u put them into a cab file, make sure it is the last file to be installed in the extendedrom setup.
regards; faria
Hay Faria,
It doesn't matter that you didn't post a reply sooner, look at the time difference between my question and my answer, it is not even a hour after each other
But why do I have to do the Registry cabs at last in the Extended Rom? Because a few files I use got Registry changes in it.

Molski
hi
i meant registry hacks like perrfomance tweaks etc,not the ones in the programs that u are going to install.
reason?
i find out that some programs have a habit of modefing registry keys specially the ones homemade ,so if you install such cab file it is best to leave last.
cab file
Hello guys,
I started playing with my k-jam and i have to admit i'm really happy with your advises. I'm facing the same problem now, the cab files in my "cooked" ExtROM don't install. I belive i need that cab file to disable the certificate security. Could you tell me from where to get it?
Thanx a lot!
sorry for the newbie question, but searching I didn't find a solution.
is possible to create a single install pack for some applications that, normally, are installed one by one?
for example, I usually install SPB Pocket Plus, SPB Pocket Diary, SPB Gprs Manager, CallSMS Blocker and few others.
I'd like to create a single install pack to install everything in 1 step.
is this possible or I'm only... dreaming?
thx in advance!

You could create a 2577 file on your storage card and add the cab files from the software you want to install. Can't remember what i had to alter (something to do with the autorun bit - add all the cab file names). Only thing with this is that it always asks if you want to install "x" so you still have to take time to do the installs.
Suggest you research the 2577 file and how to alter them ( look for ext rom stuff)
Hope this helps.
i've lost myself
can't find any info about this 2577 file!
heeeeeeeeeelp
You can use this.

Hi guys,
I would like to modify / replace the EXT ROM on my P3600i.
I would like to leave the defaut CAB's etc, but I would like to add to it also.
I tried downloading the EXT ROM editor, but I am bit confused on ho to use it and need a bit of a hand / tutorial.
For example how do I open the default EXT ROM of the ROM on my device.
And after I create an EXT ROM and save it as RUU_Signed etc, what do I do with it?
Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Jeff
