Sweet! I'll be checkin' this out once I get home to my computer, baking in 100 degree weather at the moment - dare not turn it on during this damned heat wave. My AC is leaving the fridge open and sitting on the bottom ledge =).

Thanks Jose! I've been looking forward to this!

Hi! Well, I didn't even use your tutorial (yet), but still I just wanted to say thanks for your work. All the work from everyone that is contributing useful stuff should be rewarded once in a while, if only by a simple "thanks!" <-- so there you go
Oh and good luck tomorrow with the soccer match Portugal - The Netherlands!
Greetz,
Jeroen (Proudly Dutch, hehe)
P.S. Now that I come to read the PDF, isn't the location for the ext rom (as noted in step 4 in your tutorial) '\Extended_Rom', that is, with an underscore ('_') and not a hyphen ('-')? I am pretty sure it is spelled with an underscore.

u are correct there is a missplelling .it has been corrected,thanks for pointing that out.and good luck to.

to everyone that downloade the tutorial before 9:30 uk on june 24
please redownload the tutorial ,there was a missplelling on it.even doo its not critical ,it is just to avoid confusion.
regards
faria

thanks faria for the pm, I'll redownload when I get back to the computer.

I hardly ever carry a laptop pc since I've gotten the 8125.
I managed to download, unzip and displaý it, but pdf files don't wrap text, so it's too hard to read the file. I can wait until I get to a PC, but if you could post it in (pocket) Word, I would br sooo happy.
It's ok if you can't, I'm still your biggest fan -- all these other guys are your second-biggest fans
Only your biggest fan would type all his fanmail out on his Wizard. My thumbs sure are tired!

Thanks, I got it this time
I hope to start building my won Ext Rom shortly

Great stuff (again) Faria.
Gonna check in a few minutes of I am able to cook my own ext-rom.
Will let you know the results afterwards!

Molski

Hi Faria,
Works like a charm. I am able to load the CABs to the extended ROM. Now, waiting for the other portion of your tutorial... how to disable the "User Input" when installing the CAB files...
:roll: :wink: :wink:
Thanks a lot. Rgds

I'm sure I'm having a senior blond moment, please bear with me! The PDA Mobiz rom has some really cewl cabs I'd like to copy out but I don't see the extended-rom from TC ??? I used your supplied TC cab and typed \extended-rom .. nothing...
Thanks all!

Need ROM urgently!

I need to roll back to WM5... Where can I find Updated-aku-3 Roms V2 For Htc-wizard 3.3.0.0 now?

try this thread. there will be mirrors on pirate bay, rapid share etc
I'm not meaning to sound sarcastic or anything, but I was wondering why so many people ask for old roms that they used previously, does everyone delete them after use? I've got 22 on my pc because I keep them all, even the ones I don't like...?

Nope, never saw a need to save them. I don't know what got into me... I decided to install faria's WM6 ROM - I HATE IT!
Anyway, I did not find a single link to a mirror in that thread...

Its Seeded on PirateBay. Go get a copy of uTorrent or BitComet and install it. Then do a search on PirateBay for Faria and click to download the one you want. Shouldn't take too long (faster than the time its taken for you to keep asking here in various threads).

Well, 'scuse me for not having an idea of what piratebay is. pfft...

it's a file share site which you can search (unlike rapidshare) but you need softeware to use it, when you go to the site it'll give you download links.

Decent Paint Program?

Does anyone know of a decent paint program that'll work with the kaiser?
Maybe something similar to MS Paint, and that's hopefully freeware?

i use pocketpicture (http://osdmsoftware.googlepages.com/pocketpicture). i think its pretty good

Photogenics is good, and so is Pocket Artist. Neither of them are free though.

Awesome this is exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks a bunch!
If anyone else has any other paint program that they like to use (that's freeware) feel free to let me know.

I use VSpainter, but now i will have to also try Photogenics, Pocket Artist, and pocketpicture.

Sorry, I know you weren't asking ME because I am not your personal search engine!
But, let me feed you, baby boy, just this once.....

Make a folder on your storage card called 'ART' and in this another folder called 'CARS'. You then put your 24-bit .bmp files in here, they need to be 80*80 pixels.

Sarcasm won't get you response either

Anyway, please explain what u mean by startup page and im sure i can help
*EDIT*
I understand what you want now. Give me a couple of mins

Extract the attached file to '\Windows\Start Menu\Programs' and then it will be in your programs menu.
Extract it elsewhere if you want it there.

Sometimes sarcasm helps...as i just proved!
Thanks again!
