WM05 AKU2 to BA - test

I need someone to test this ROM, because I dont have a BA.
OS 5.1.195 (Build 14847.2.0.0)
STOP !!! ROM IS NOT WORKING
"ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/BLueAngel/WM5_BA_-_AKU2 TEST.rar"
It is possible that you have to reflash the old rom!

Is this based on the Himalaya rom?

How likely is it to turn my BA into a paperweight? LOL
I am donloading it now mate.. Will post any results in about 2 hours

I used the the newest QTEK Wizard Rom.
There would not be any difference between Him or Wiz OS. Same build same files.

?? no omap or xscale code optimalisation ?? files can not be the same :|

I ported the German Wizard rom successfully to my Himalaya and I did the same with the WWE version at this rom.
But there could be differences. In this case, the rom would not work.

First Impressions..
OK.. bearing in mind that i only installed the Ivan Rom about 3 hours ago.. My MDAIII is getting a beating tonight.. However...
Ok.. Standard stuff.. Bootloader mode.. Set operater..
The update was relatively quick.. only took about 8 minutes,
Formatted the hive and storage OK..
And it hang on the Windows Mobile Screen!
and it keeps on hanging on the windows Mobile Screen.. :?
No New device Setup.. No shimmer of life.. No backlight.. Just the on/Off button Works
Sorry mate.. Back to the drawing Board!

I have not changed the drivers, only the OS.
I compared a Univesal and Wizard rom and the OS is exactly the same.

That may well be bepe.. But it doesnt install past teh windows Mobie screen...
Something is wrong mate.. normally it should give you that screen you get when the device need to be setup the fist time.. and it doesnt.. It just hangs..
Sorry..

Ok thanks and I'm sorry.

Ahh well! Thanks for your attempt Bepe. It seems he got to the same stage as Mamaich & Tuatara.

***NOTE: To all wanting to test this, the ROM will not finish the BOOT sequence. This is the same or similar problem both mamaich and I have had with undertaking the Himalaya AKU2 Port to date. ***
The device will initialize, gets to the 'boot splash' screen, runs that ...
The "coldinit.exe" is started, since we hear the 'ding' happen ...
At this point the device locks - an animated "dialog" appears to want to be displayed.
The boot process proceeds no further. Presumably crashed.
Additionally, the LEDs are dead/disabled so I can not tell if the phone (RIL, BT, etc.) is still available/operating. Power button or screen taps do NOT relight the backlight, or enable the screen. Presumably locked up.
Ok ... excellent work so far, however the same problem(s) seems to be arising which both mamaich and I have run into when using the Himalaya AKU2 port.
My guess is that this is probably due to the same missing DLL interface calls being available in coredll.dll. There are now 5 additional entry points in the XIP portion of this DLL, and this could be causing the 'hang'.
It looks VERY promising though ... I'm definitaly going to be taking a VERY close look at this ROM as well. The boot sequence is quite dramatically different, and may lead to some possibilities in merging ROMs to avoid the requirements of changing XIP section modules.
P.S> TuMa v1.4 will be out shortly ... it's now combining elements from the Wizard, Himalaya 1.7x & 2.0, Jasjar, Atom, Acer, and the original v3.1 BA from mamaich now. Trying to merge the 'best' of the available elements for a well performing and stable device.

Not a problem.. Just let me know when you want another one tested!

OT: has anyone tried porting Universal rom? is it possible?

@Saintraziel:
Would be the same result.
And a lot more work to do because of the VGA resources.

aku2
Would this give AKU2 functionality for blueangel? (PH20B)
If so I would be happy to test any builds, I am dying to get my hands on a working WM5 with push email on BA.

"Mr. Clean" AKU 2.3 ROM available - No Carrier Cus

After seeing more than a few requests on the board, I figured it was high time to cook up a clean ROM for everyone to use. The purpose in creating it was two-fold. One, I wanted to have a core ROM that wasn't littered with carrier customizations and two I wanted to create a solid base for others to play with.
Cooking up your own ROM can be scary the first time you do it, it's a lot safer to simply mess with tweaking the Extended ROM and leaving the OS and bootloader alone. The Mr. Clean ROM only loads four items (Disable Cert, MMS Folder Creation, MIDlet Java Session Fix and Total Commander) so it's great to use as a base to build on or simply to flash over completely.
As for the ROM itself, I used the core OS from the latest T-Mobile beta ROM (AKU 2.3) and the Radio ROM from the latest Cingular beta ROM (2.25). As many have already noticed, though the two carrier releases share the same version number for their respective Radio ROMs, they are not idential files. The Cingular Radio ROM appears to much better at keeping a signal.
--------------------------
Exact version numbers are as follows:
IPL: 2.24
SPL: 2.24
GSM: 02.25.11
OS: 2.24.10.1
Within the OS, Device Information reports:
ROM version: 2.24.10.1 WWE
ROM date: 4/17/06
Radio version: 02.25.11
Protocol version: 4.1.13.12
ExtROM version: 2.24a Mr. Clean
And the OS build is reported as:
OS 5.1.195 (Build 14955.2.3.0)
--------------------------
I've been testing it out for a few hours now and the build seems to be solid. Boot time is very quick and it appears to acquire a network signal almost immediately.
A2DP is supported natively in the ROM.
Any questions, please post here in the thread. Otherwise I hope this helps all the non-Cingular/T-Mobile users as well as the budding ROM chefs out there!
The ROM is currently on the FTP at:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/MrClean_RUU_WIZARD_224a_AKU23_WWE.zip
Note: 2.24a was uploaded on 6/17/2006 and contains the Java Session fix. Please DISREGARD v2.24 and don't bother using it. If an FTP admin is reading this, please feel free to DELETE MrClean_RUU_WIZARD_224_AKU23_WWE.zip from the safe area. This file supersedes it.
Edit: 4/7/06 v2.24 deleted from safe area (eDsuB)

sweet... This is exactly what I need... Please do keep this going for future ROM releases.
Which Splash screen did you use? I tried to put in my own with an exe I found in another thread, but it doesn't work on this ROM.

aalright now after i install this rom where can i get the proper t-mobile settings? ive looked around and ive seen it once but now i cant find it

ahhh. man. i just upgraded to the tmobile 2.24 last nite becaue i couldnt wait anymore, and now you have this. lol. i would rather a core rom though so i still mite get this

i just install this rom and installed all the cabs of the t-mobile ext rom and well theres one thing the comm manager isnt the same.
it has the same settings int he settings menu like the usb to pc thing just the comm manager is different is there any way to change the comm manager to the new layout.

This is great, thanks.
So what exactly do you do for the MMS folder creation? When I have updated in the past and not run the extended ROM stuff, I didn't have an MMS account. So I had to make a registry change to enable MMS account creation, then create it in the messaging application. Is that basically what you do?

ikkoku - Glad you like it. I'll try to keep it going as new ROM releases ship out. To answer your question about the splash, it's a custom screen.
jacob-mda - Check out the thread listing the functions of the T-Mobile 2.24 Extended ROM. I've listed out the known components in there. If you just want the GPRS/WAP and MMS settings you should be good to go if you grab the following CABs from the T-Mobile ExtROM and install them:
MP_Customization_TMOUSA_Wizard(AKU2.x)_060510.CAB
P_Generic_Conn_Settings.CAB
gizm0luvsu - I'm not sure what you mean when you say the Comm Manager isn't the same. If you're talking about the difference between the old 1.x ROMs and the new, you'll note that the Comm Manager now has seven items in it instead of four. It's going to look a bit different just because of the new functions.

Here, this will only install the T-Mobile GPRS/MMS/IE/OTA settings. (this was made by xelencin on a previous ROM)

Basically. When trying to figure out how to do it, I was pointed to one of the default carrier CABs that does just that -- creates the MMS folder and adds the Java link. So I just used that CAB to do the work.

what i mean is that i know its supposed to look different. when i was using 2.21 it had 5-6 things in it now when i upgraded to this mrclean one it only has the original 4.
but it has the usb-> pc sync and stuff that the new one has

Prophet
does such a rom also excist for the htc prophet??
in my case the orange spv m600 with latest dopod rom.
or is this rom already good to go for prophet users???
could al the people who reply to this post mention on what device the installed it on.
so everybody knows whats going on here.
I know this is the forum for the wizard but allot of programs and upgrade for the wizard are usable on the prophet.
can you tell me if this is possible or not?
thanx

The Comm Manager in the MrClean ROM has seven options in it. Just like the other AKU 2.3 ROMs. If you've only got four options in the Comm Manager you don't have the ROM properly flashed.
I would double check to make sure that the version numbers match what I have posted above. Also, make sure your device is CID-unlocked before trying to flash this ROM.

i actually reflashed my rom and now it does have the 7 thx for the info

I would NOT try to flash this ROM to anything but a Wizard device. I honestly wouldn't know if similar ROMs exist for other devices. Since I only have a Wizard, I can only test things on a Wizard so anything I build is going to be solely for the Wizard (at least until I get my grubby hands on more toys).

HTC 3600 and Dopod WM6

did someone tried the dopod wm6 rom on an HTC 3600?
Thanks

I did.
Works very well for me. No bug at all. I'm happy with it.

what about the fix time of the GPS?
any changes in speed of the whole system?
and the battery life time?
Thanks

I've upgraded my P3600 to WM6 (Australian ROM)
GPS - First detection is slow IMHO. After that it runs great.
Changes in speed - No changes so far I have noticed, in other words it still runs fast
Battery life - Is great depending on your usage. Just disable your infrared. That alone makes a lot of difference.

Where did you get the image ROM?
What is the difference between DOPOD and HTC Australian ROM?

Does it matter where I got it from?.. Or do you want to know where you can get it?..
http://rapidshare.com/files/42337174/D810_ANZ_WM6_Upgrade_20070709.zip
I do not know what and if there is a difference is between DOPOD and HTC Australian ROM.
I just know that the ROM I used didn't have customized DOPOD screenlogo's/programs etc installed AND that I have only one issue since running this ROM but I think it's WM6 related:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=318013

All the OFFICIAL ROMs providing wm6 for trinity, so far, are from Dopod, including the rapidshare link above.
This is why it's called: 'D810' and not HTC P3600 in the link.
You may notice very few Dopod's customization, but it's still a ROM from Dopod, you can see, for instance, some Dopod's ringtones in the alarms and ring lists.
As far as the localized operator settings are concerned, I can't tell, since I did not install their extended ROM, I don't have any either, except for the ring tones I just mentioned before.
Regarding the new ROM performances, I think it has increased a lot from the previous April wm5 release from HTC: faster, better look etc.
The GPS is a little bit faster, but not much faster, but I think it has more to do with the new radio.
For example I could not get any fix with the 1.46.00.01 one from SEA. But it works quite well with the 1.46.20.01, from ANZ.
The most impressive improvement is the wifi connexion, which is stable, and fast. (it was a disaster with previous radios, especially the 1.38.x series.

Just to make myself more clear:
1)
I know all the trinity ROMs are made by HTC. What I meant is not 'made by Dopod' but, branded, designed for Dopod.
2)
I have read here before that wifi has nothing to do with radio but just with the ROM itself. I don't know, but what I can tell is that, the previous wm5 plus 1.38/1.41 radio series had always given me poor wifi performance.
But wm6 with 1.46. series is perfect in terms of wifi perfs.

At last do you think that flashing with an official ROM (Asian or Australian doesn't matter) i will not have any king of strange problem like with the wm6 coocked roms?
I want wm6 but i want all the features work on the device too.
Thanks for your patience, but i'm going to buy my HTC p3600 nad i will do only if i can have a perfectly working WM6 device with working GPS.

Since there are no garantees there is a choice to be made. The P3600 is still unique in his features. It's the ONLY Window Mobile based PDA with 3G enabled and GPS onboard.
And what you do want to consider is that even if HTC releases a WM6 for Europe, there are no garantees that the ROM won't have any flauds.

Exactly, there is never 100% garantee to be fully satisfied and get no default or bug. This is why the reseller is there to offer you a one year garantee, so if you fancy the specs of the device go for it.
I don't want to start any debate about which programmers have more skills and more time to do proper job.
Individual ROM cooks are amazing and none of us will ever reach their skill levels, and they do it for free, just for the pleasure of sharing with us, so we owe them the greatest respect for that.
But obviously , after having tried both, I confirm that there are less conflicts and bugs in the official ROM than in the cooked ones.
Also because they take more risks by adapting applications that where not designed for the device (ex: touchflo and kaiser interfaces in trinity)
But I do believe that new cooked ROM from now on will be far more reliable than they were in before (wm6 ones), mainly because they now have a stable basis (the official dopod release) to make their own developments on.
So the difference might be slighter and slighter in those respects.

Explicit instructions for a dummy
Does this ROM update go as easy as the GPS unlock update?
I've done ROM updates that made you go through several activities and I just screw them up.
I'm looking for the simple version.
Jerry

Tried this and no luck
I have an HTC branded and unlocked P3600
I got this error:
Error 294 - Invalid Vendor ID
This update utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone.
Ideas?

No, it is not as easy as the GPS update ROM, and cannot be compare as you just experienced it because:
- it's not a HTC release, it's a DOPOD release, aiming at Dopod D810 clients, from South-east Asia and Australia-New-zealand.
- the ROM is heavy protected by its SPL to not install onto other CID devices.
- The previous Hard-spl crack doesn't work anymore and if you try to install it: luckily u'll get an error it will refuse to install, unluckily, it will get stuck in the middle of the install and you might even brick your device.
That's why you could not manage to install it. There are plenty of topics over this issue on this forum, you can try one of those workarounds, but take all responsibility if something unlucky happens during the upgrade process.
By the way: SIM unlocked, doesn't mean CID unlock, you can install any SIM card you want from any provider, but your phone's CID still belong to a language, a geographical area, and a manufacturer, which is HTC, not DOPOD ;-)

Well, from you link, i can see that the boot unlocker works but i can't get back to my device because it's stuck in a boot loader rainbow screen.
How do i get it back to the OS?

I told you so...
1)
Don't think it's easy and simple, every one got different skills and experience and you don't help the noobies by saying "flashing a SPL protected ROM is 'easy and simple, just use your brain'...
Better being warned of the worst, if you want to do your best...
2)
There is a sticky thread in this forum about 'how to unbrick or unstuck you phone after having failed to flash the Dopod's ROM.
Read it CAREFULLY and try it out.
3)
Next time you try, use Olibro SPL or, more simple and safe for beginners, try to flash a ROM without SPL/IPL.

can you give more info on where you're stuck? (what is shown on bootloader screen). i'm assuming you've tried a soft reset to exit bootloader...
it's not that hard to flash a rom, the official dopod wm6 included. follow the guide here which will allow you to flash it without the new spl. it's still recommended to flash hard spl before a ROM flash to be safe.

Blackberry Connect - bbconnect - on Touch Diamond

Hi All.
So here we go again - trying to get Blackberry Connect to work on a new device..... so we've succeeded on the Kaiser and Touch Dual with both original and cooked rom's but I can't get any version to work on the new Diamond - received mine yesterday after frying the mini usb port on my Touch Dual and its one of the 1st things I installed? I've tried all the current fixes (I think) most of them summarized here in Elec.Two's post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371652
I'm hoping there will be a few others out there working on the same problem - I've just changed my aku back to .1.1.4 - I can get the device to sync when connected using activesync as a pass-through connection but get the "old" data tunnel available message and then it flips to "not connected" .....
I'll keep trying and keep this thread updated but could really use some help!

Hi, Im trying to change the name of this. I would like to change it to HTC-Herm200 or someting else. But I dont know what the build number have to be there. Anyone know ?

this has NOTHING to do with rom development... use some sense people! moving thread!

ROM Development????
Not sure what usap 's post is all about but my question is very much about ROM development? I'm looking for a registry change that will fix the problem that the CURRENT STOCK ROM has that means that bbconnect will not work?
I currently have WWE_1.34.831.1_52.24.25.08_0.93.25 loaded and have tried the standard "Tweaks" from past "ROM Development" but none have worked so far? I'm on constant watch for another ROM release (Cooked or Stock) or a Registry fix to help solve the problem?
ShogunMark - do you really think the thread was in the wrong place???? If its not ROM development then I'm in need of some guidance?

Im tying to change in HEX Editor the Signatures. For example there are DIAM100 (or DIAM10000) and build 19588. I changed it to HERM200 and 19588->17745. I can change it without changing the size of .nbh. But thre are "Diamont" Signatures too and by changing Diamong->Hermes wir have one less character (7->6). It changed the size of the .nbh.
So im trying to flash it to the Diamond nad about 96% OK, but then ROM flash error.
A meaning of it all is that it have to work, because RIM asks the Number and NAME and then when its in the list->OK, NO->pending.
I need some tools like SSPL 1.34 and ROMUpdate Utility that dont asks of CRC or something else.
Please Help

I've seen a few members reporting that they have a later ROM version > 1.35.707.3 - See thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394985&page=12 I have not been able to find this as an officially released ROM and I'm not aware that its been dumped as yet? This slightly newer ROM may help solve the problems and may help usap with his question on the version number?
If there's anyone out there who know's the AKU and the version number for ROM 1.35.707.3 can you let us know???
Thanks

Yes you have to Hex edit the ROM to get it to work, but it doesnt belong in that forum, and to your other question the newer build of ROM is not a newer AKU or build.

I disagree - for most every other device - getting bbconnect to work has been the result of ROM Development - if your familiar with the other device forums - you'll see that Blackberry discussion is often linked with and found in the ROM development forum?
HOWEVER - I dont really care which thread it sits in as long as "we" can work on a solution if there is one available?
FINALLY - Thank you for the information on the Malaysian ROM

yes the ROM needs to be HEX edited but it has nothing really to do with the "development" of a ROM .
so when we get HardSPL ready and installed i will show everyone how to hex edit the ROM NBH files and then reflash it so bb connect can be used.

Not sure what usap 's post is all about but my question is very much about ROM development? I'm looking for a registry change that will fix the problem that the CURRENT STOCK ROM has that means that bbconnect will not work?

I'm not sure who to agree with...it really shouldn't matter so much to people.

Agreed - It shouldn't matter and here it will stay
I'm hoping for a tweak to the stock ROM (or even a "fixed" stock ROM to be released as I've heard that a next build Rom is due soon - and this has neen the main reason behind the delay in the UK and EU formal release??? Apparently - despite the popularity of "our" site less than 5% of device owners actually change anything on their phone never mind update firmware - official or otherwise? HTC are trying to minimise "support" issues by ironing out as many bugs before the next release - I know for a FACT that they use this site as a major test ground for any new device - so maybe the expansys release was intended after all???)
Thanks again.....

Yep, all of the evidence suggests that that's the reason behind the delayed release in Europe. New ROM. Hopefully with none of the bugs we've found so far (but I doubt it).
And that's a really interesting fact. It would be both nice and worrying to know that we influence them. (Nice when good devices like the Touch Diamond are announced, but worrying when there are major problems, such as that big driver problem).

Offtop (maybe)
I was playing yesterday with another phone and became the ROM extracted. So Registry and some of the files have the name of it in it. And I changed it to another name (Herm200 and HTC-HERMES) so that after the recreating and flashing the ROM it was everywhere Hermes. But PHONE ROM was dead (No signal, no phone). There were some imei*.pfg and some *.rgu and *.dsm where I changed all to HTC-HERMES and HERM200. So I had to flashing it to normal ROM.
And by the Diamond i worked with not extracted ROM. So i think there are 2 roads to change it: in extracted and not extracted ROM.
What do you think about it?

UPDATE on 1.34.831.1 and bbconnect?
Have just tried all the usual routes with the new EU Rom (details below) having used OliNex's SPL to Flash:
ROM: 1.34.831.1 WWE
Date: 5/25/08
WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.19588 (Build 19588.1.1.4)
Radio: 0.93.25.NS16
Protocol version: 52.24.25.08H
Still no success..... I've seen that there are other Roms also out there such as 1.35.871.5 but not yet available?
I was hoping that the Stock EU Rom would be OK as in the past the Stock "Official" Roms have run bbconnect with no changes and no problems???
If anyone has any other suggestions then your help would be greatly appreciated?

UPDATE ON Elite 1.0 and bbconnect....
Still nothings working - Sigh.....
I've got a specific request in the main Elite 1.0 Rom thread for walshieau to add bbconnect support now that HSPL is released - so hoping it wont be too long now!

walshieau - any news on working on a solution now that we have HSPL out???? Can you add bbconnect compatability to the next Elite release????

UPDATE on 1.37.405 and bbconnect
Just added a comment on the main thread for this, the latest WWE EU Rom Release...... still not playing....
USAP - Any more thoughts??
walshieau - come on - you promised to help with a solution.....??? Help me out here????

Refresh......
Just refreshing as I'm getting desperate for a solution as I use the blackberry function for work and really don't want to switch back to my touch dual - has ANYONE had any success on the diamond with bbconnect?

Another "post" refresh.....
I'm still struggling to find a solution for this....???? In fact, I'm starting to wonder if there is a solution at all? Has anyone had any success at all with installing blackberry connect on any of the diamond Roms?

me waiting for a solution also. from what i notice, we just need 1 carrier to support bb on the diamond n we r all set. currently this is what i hav experience with the touch n touch dual which i have been able to connect despite local carrier not supporting it.
give a shout out if u do come across a solution though.

Dumping standard shipped ROM

Is there anyone who has succesfully dumped the Official Shipped ROM that comes with the European models ?
I'm sure that apart from me, there are other members who would like to revert to the offical ROM just in case something happens with the device. (need to send it back for a reparation)
I'm going to flash just right now anyway, as I'm positive that there will be someone in the future dumping the offical ROM.
\cheers, now pressing start
EDIT : After flashing I keep the high pitched noise that almost everyone is Reporting. I can't get rid of it. Be aware with this ROM,. you might get stuck with a hissing device that won't stop I'll wait for some solution and then flash again, can't use Winmo anymore

me too...please help us - i cannot use my device due to constant noising...

up0grading the EC chip drivers
I saw some remarks about the EC Chip driver update from HTC - will try that now, see if it helps anything at all.. For now, the device always hisses like a snake when Vista is active.
Without Vista active, it's mostly quiet, but gives no sound in WinMo, however, if you try to make a sound in WinMo, sometimes, after a few seconds, it will hiss and pitch for the duration of the sample played...
This is really annoying

hi,
i did a backup pof's way, so i have now part00.raw - part04.raw and SPL.nbh.
Rebuild Part02.raw and uploaded again. Working like a charm. Problem is: my original ROM is in German. anyone interested?

german but quiet is much better than english with noise.
please provide links.
Thanks

GERMAN..?
That sounds wonderful: need the the german ROM very urgent, can`t work with my beloved shifty...
Please share the ROM, thanks so much!

Me too!
I installed the GPS Bios pack - Easy BUT:
The noise only appears while staring after reinstalling the battery - just restart SnapVue after Vista is up and the noise is gone.
Also gone is the German keyboard under SnapVue - Regional settings don't change that!
GPS work in SnapVue and Vista (using ActiveSync & GPSgate - after test period ~30€).
Overnight SnapVue need app. double the energy than before!!!
Using GPS in Vista means NO internet/mail!
Wrong keyboard layout and battery drain tempt me to reinstall an original German ROM and to continue using my dear old eTrex with USB together with my Vista progs.
So, how and where2 can I find the German ROM?
Thanks,
Axel

Send the Rom-Link to a victim already. Waiting for an OK before i publish.

Victim report Nr. 1:
@tece: Thanks a lot, man, good job, it works fine..!
Regards and thanks a lot.
Alex

great!!
i noticed that pocketie is already installed and that \Windows\StartUp\PKG.exe and BlockTitleBar.exe are already removed.(like i did as described in this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377441 thread before backing up the original ROM). Now I'm looking to get the registry preconfigured to not start Snapvue. Liberated German ROM will get released this weekend. If you can't stand waiting for that ROM send me or traumrakel a PM for the rapidshare link.

If you could include the liberation into the new ROM I would prise your name... ;-)

Do you have the reconstructed ROM of version (original UK Shift): 1.30.405.0 WWE ? Can u post it/send it? Then I don't have to rebuild it myself, because I'm not that experienced it rebuilding myself. Also in case my rebuilded rom fails to work.
Many thanks!

cmonex
Could you please share the 1.30WWE
Thanks
Ram

You have it, it's the one having gps and sound bugs with european radios.
I'm using 1.22 because it's a stable base. Later version doesn't give you much, as graphic drivers are disabled anyway.

Cool. I followed pof's suggested way of dumping the original rom. Now I got all the raw files with correct start addresses. I am wondering whether I did correctly or not for SPL.NB. because the file size is 256 KB since I passed the same length 262114 as read in pof's post. When I used KaiserKitchen to reconstruct, I don't have baseRom and if I ignore that, I am not gettting the NBF file. I want to backup my CHT ROM and install your's (1.22 with GPS and sound). Could you please shed some light?
Thanks
Ram

Hi Cmonex ;
I need the non-touched 1.30 WWE rom for shift ; can you share please ?
