[Help] How to update Windows Mobile build? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I've been following the Enhanced Notification thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=491676
According to the thread, it requires a build (I assume they are referring to the Windows Mobile Build) of 21000+ to work. So my question is, how do I install a newer build of Windows Mobile 6.1. I currently have build 19965.
Does it come in a .cab file? If I install the new build do I lose everything on my diamond? Like TF3D and all my installed programs?
Thanks for your help.

You need to flash a ROM that is based on a 21000+ build

oh okay so there's no other way to just upgrade the Windows Mobile 6.1 build. The only way is to flash a new ROM with the new build.
Thanks.

And how to integrate a newer build into custom rom?

the chef does this not you.

and when I am the chef but simply can not find any howtos?
Because that's why I'm asking.

it should be listed in the help for the kitchen you're using, shouldn't it?

Can a2dp function be extracted from Beta Roms that have it?

and inserted somehow into the official HTC roms like the Wizard and Apache roms that lack this feature. With the 6600 we were able to update the bluetooth stack using cab files. You think any cab files exist or can be created that would let us update aku 2 roms that lack a2dp to give it that functionality
i would like to hear an answer to this one, so i bounced the message back up to the top.
when i decompiled the latest tmo universal rom i saw a bt a2dp .dll file
if there are any testers i could compile the files into a cab format but i need all the files list that would be neccessary for a working a2dp profile
This would be the greatest thing since sliced bread if possible!

Hi all,
I still use the beta rom just to get A2DP working...
Did you notice this thread? Seems very active.. and have some results

good night
Anyone running one of the leaked test ROMs that has a2dp working, can you tell me what the OS version and build number is?
This is what your'e looking for summiter, it's the same one I had you build for us with the cingular customizations. You would be some kind of Hero if you could merge this with the 2.17 rom and cingular ext rom.

Actually, what I'm trying to find out is if the core OS build is the same in the a2dp test ROMs as it is in the officially released (but a2dp-free) AKU2 ROMs.
On the AKU2 ROMs, if you go to Start->Settings->System->About the OS build is reported as:
OS 5.1.195 (Build 14847.2.0.0)
If the leaked test ROMs have the same core OS, then the only difference between them and the AKU2 ROMs would be the radio, bootloader, and customizations...in which case I could build an installer that has the core OS with a2dp, but with updated radio, bootloader, and customizations.
The installer I built from that test ROM has the Cingular customizations we want on the 8125, but the radio and bootloader are potentially older.
Now that would be SWEET!!!

summiter,
I just installed your custom built 2.8 ROM. The OS build is the same as you have indicated above the radio ROM and the loaders all had different versions.
Then using awizard, I extracted the OS ROM, installed your custom built 2.17 ROM, and then using awizard, I loaded the extracted 2.8 ROM. So now I have the latest radio, boot loaders, etc but with the 2.8 OS!, So far things seem to work OK, haven't tried push email, as I still don't have any place to test that from. But I have A2DP! and am loving it so far.
So now your next challenge is to extract A2DP and build a 2.17 exe
Oh BTW, just an FYI I have the old CommManager screen though.
Thanks for all your efforts!
Shankar.
Anyone want to make a rom that uses the Tmobile UK rom and adds a2dp? That way all us blackberry users could have it as well

.NET CF problem

It seems that many programs crash asking for .Net cf 2.0 but my Wing comes with it from the factory (WM6.) To make it worse, if I try to install it, I get an error that a newer version was found already installed and the install aborts.
I wasn't even aware that you could install/upgrade .NET on your PPC...

Compact Framework, not the desktop version.
I had the same problem as you... and it was "fixed" when I went with the PDAVIET rom.
Theres a 3.5 BETA CF installation out there... see if that will help?

Thanks! I tried the 3.5 and it helped with SOME of the programs but not all...
Does the Wing have to be unlocked to run the PDAVIET rom? My wing is starting to slow down a lot and I hate having to do so much configuring just to make the stock tmobile rom to be somewhat usable.
I had the same problem with CF 2, and since it's built into WM6, there's nothing that can be done.
Regarding being able to install a new rom, The author who coded the program that allowed me to install PDAVIET v14 on my Wing is currently working on releasing the tool that will allow installation on the Wing.
Apparently the PDAVIET roms ... V15 and V14 are totally different. Because v15 is based on HTC or Dopod ship rom and v14 is based on T-mobile rom... so that's why some people are able to install the 15, but not the 14.
This is being worked on as we speak, and will hopefully be out soon.
And I see he just let you release it!! Awesome! I'm going to do this as soon as I get home. ^_^
So, which one runs better? The 14 or the 15? (And can I install either one with that tool?)

Can someone cook clean X1 builds based on 6.5?

Now that we have all the components to cook clean X1 roms based on 6.5 I wonder why nobody has done it yet? No HTC stuff. With new builds we can have updates as if it where SE who releasing them. Also goodies from X2 can be included.
hmmm, i wonder who will too...regardless how clean they say it is you will always find some additional app you dont want that was cooked into the rom, and you wont be able to delete it after flashing
i hope the chefs here who cook clean ROMs do cook a clean rom and leave all 3rd party apps for us to add only if we want, for example, i do not use finger keyboard and i stumbled upon a clean rom with fingerkeyboard, including a few other 3rd party apps, the ROm was good, but i hate to know there is an app on my x1 that is 3rd party that i do not want and cannot remove....
it cannot be clean if you add anything 3rd party...clean means strictly M$ and SE
well thats why i am still on the R3A SEUS fed me, when 6.5 is done and we get the new panel manager and so on then i will cook my own custom rom; it will look as tho it came from SEUS
you could try:
Christian's Rom - Dutch\WWE wm 6.5.1 build 23053 - R3AA Based - "Clean" And "Full" Version Its both in Dutch and English versions
that includes fingerkeyboard! personally i wouldn't mind but you could just install the fingerkeyboard cab, then uninstall it, thus removing fingerboard and you having a completely clean wm.6.5.1 +panels!
Pure Xperia
You should try this :
Pure Series http://www.wcxxperia-nce.com/
I am quite ocd with custom roms that are overloaded with apps and TF3D which i hate and i was quite reluctant to install anything but the stock ROM but Christian's rom is now permanent on my phone.
Still no sign of a clean, I mean fully clean rom based on 6.5 using latest builds. It should be up to the user to install whatever they want. I know all the cooks on the board does a perfect job but still there is not a option for many of us outhere that still want it to be only SE with 6.5 build.

Exactly, there are no clean roms at this point, just lite versions... i do hope we can find one sometime with the wm 6.5...i prefer to install my own apps due to the fact that the 3rd party apps chefs do cook in the roms i never use

same thing, custom icons, battery enhancers and so on, is not clean, clean means everything OEM from Sony Ericsson without any tweaking and the clean stuff from the leaked M$ builds
Hey guys
You know, using Ervius kitchen, it is not THAT hard to cook your own build.
In fact I was looking for a french clean ROM and was able to do it.
I am currently running WM6.5 with build 23052, nd its running perfect.
Maybe you could give it a try, there are lots of people here who would be very pleased to give you an hand if you get stuck somewhere

I fully agree. Clean means nothing added. Strange that there is no cook that can grant us that.

Ok. I will try your cooking. Hope that it is 100 % clean and based on latest build. Looking forward to it.
cant be the latest build dude, the panels and the panel manager doesnt fit the screen properly with the latest wm 6.5 build, lets hope this is something in the build that M$ will fix soon that all 6.1 apps can auto adjust...for example resco file manager... or lets hope we can get the new panel manager from the x2 after release
Actually it is/was but the fixes have to be added in this week to clear up what is wrong with the new ui and certain things that the new ui breaks in manila...personally the latest is quite ugly and my xperia-nce rom is released with it only as a courtesy to those who like the new look...but not my preference....an older sys is used for the pure rom....if you had read before you came back to comment...the only errors with the new ui are with the manila oem based , not the pure rom....

WC

question on CM Updater

so i had just rooted my g1 using the old method here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=553416
is it possible to install the cm updater on that setup, and download the latest cm rom with the updater and have it flash it for me?
also, does the cm rom use the newer or older app store?
tia... im new to linux and android, wm for 5 years and its quite a bit differant
Im a noob so I can't answer your first q but My CM 4.2.8 has Market version 1620.
well according to a guy in the comments section
http://androidandme.com/2009/12/news/new-android-market-is-carrier-specific/
the update is also being pushed to rooted roms. I might have not gotten it yet because I don't have data (I use wifi)
also, you aren't notified of the update but you can uninstall it by going into the settings->apps->market->uninstall updates
