So I just got mine from my friend who lives in Germany, and I desperately want to change the language because I hardly understand it. I need it in English. Can someone help me find the .nbm file or some tut or something? I saw the hard spl unsigned thing and I guess I'll start off with that. Can anyone help me find a Windows 6.1 english version that has everything in it so it's like as i just bought it? Or maybe a windows 6.5? But I need it to have everything as if I just bought it, oh and I installed the one free map tomtom navigator allows me to download, so if I flash the rom, will I lose that map?
You should be able to find a suitable ROM in the Diamond ROM Development Section, you will only loose your Maps if they are stored on the Main Storage.
Well the map files are in My Documents of the phone, so does that count as the main sotrage? Any way to back it up?
Oh! Will I lose +any Apps like the TomTom Navigator or the Office Tools?
If you want to back up your maps, copy them to your Internal Storage. Mostly after market apps are installed on your Internal Storage so you will not loose it when you flash a new ROM, I have for example iGO8 installed on my Internal Storage and I don't have to reinstall it when I flash a new ROM. The Windows apps are part and parcel of all ROMs.

do we have a ROM in the ftp that i can flush to? thats working? just wondered if that could fix my storage folder missing problem.
a link to the directory would do it. thanks in advance!
we have lots, check wiki
i mean is with an SD Card..the following doesnt work:
O2 Asia xdaiisradio10200.zip
O2 Asia xdaiiscerom11262.zip
XDA 2s HK Eng 1.31
Would answer the question then of why they were never posted in wiki!
The radio 1.10.00 you can install as per wiki
Extneded roms you can get all applications and patches form those roms that have been cooked of wiki
The operator customization is in the kitchen on wiki
As for the 02 asian rom, well nobody has uploaded a ship.exe
that was quick.
thanks for the fast reply MDAIIIUser!
last question MDAIIIUser..do we have a solution for my Storage folder missing problem?(please!) this the problem why i wanna try to flash a ROM with an SD Card..
I dont like flashing from sd, to much work!
I still think the i-mate 162 rom of wiki is good, used it untill I had to reflash my device with all the passed Type I and Type II versions on wiki.
Then went with the 1.31 arabic and cooked my exteneded rom, added the 1.10 radio and the BT 3900.
Both of these roms work with the old tool.
ive almost tried all the ROM on the ftp..but still Storage Folder disappears after my first reset. ow yea on the my first boot i can see the storage folder and on the settings in memory i can also see the storage..its full..i guess thats one of the reason why im having this problem. any suggestions on why did this happend and afcorse a solution on how to fix this would be the nice.
thanks again MDAIIIUser!
Hmmm...first time I see this problem...
What is in the Storage Folder?
ow yea also the Extended_ROM doesnt load(ive tried all the unlock cabs doesnt work..and also flash manager errors! task manager error connection manager error all of the permanent save options..i guess cause windows cant save it or find the Storage Folder..and after first soft reset as ive said it disappears..
please anybody..there must be a solution on this?!
Looks like something is seriously messed up.
I suggest as a last resort to reinstall a complete new SHIP ROM that is closest to your original configuration...you can always upgrade later.
Look here to find the version you want and download it:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
Upload the ROM to your PDA in the cradle, not via SD card. Hard reset and tell us if that is better...?
i have this problem for a long time now..so thats why ive almost tried all of them..can you imagine how much this problem is really been a pain for me? DAMN!
ow yea in order for my IIs to work..i figure the reason why i always hang is because some folders are missing..like the extended_ROM and storage folder so i made a folder with the same FileName..after ive created the Folders it almost instantly stabled(doesnt lag when i press a button or somthin) and files already in them. like on the Storage folder the PerSaveBackup Folder is instantly created.
so i guess my problem is why is it when i hardreset some folders that are really important for windows to function are missing on my phone? how can this happen?
Hey Dudes,
I have a really big problem, i bought for my father a navigation system. clarion Map360, but I was so stupid and tried to but a other windows mobile on it. Now I have the problem that I have a blue screen and the navi asked me if I want to upgrade the windows mobile by USB or SD-Card. But I didn`t have the right Image i think.
I need the Winceimg.cks or the whole Image. I hope somebody can help me.
Sorry for my English..

What situation are you in right now?
Did you try to reboot it?
Did you back up the old image before attempting this?
Generally this thing are protected from writing images not belonging to them so unless you selected to format the flash first you may still be ok.
If not, I doubt your unit can be salvaged without a lab since ROM images for PNDs are almost impossible to come by, specially for less popular brands.
My Situation, i think i killed the flash rom, if i start the system normally nothing works, no screen nothing, but when i started with the start and the reboot button i come to the menu with a blue screen.
1. wince upgrade
2. uboot upgrade
3. exit

P.S.: I didn`t backup the Image, but i have the same system Clarion Map360 at home to, thats working. Maybe you can give me tutorial, how to backup the image from the other one, to repair the old one.
Other Question, Is it possible to put a Windows Mobile 5 System on it, to run another GPS Software like TomTom 6
Well sounds like you are in trouble.
You need to look around the menu options. Sometimes with thees devices there is an option to dump the current ROM to SD.
If it exists use it if not you probably need a lab.
You can not put WM 5 or any other Windows Mobile on this device unless:
1) You can get the original ROM
2) Extract all drivers from that ROM
3) Incorporate drivers in Windows Mobile image
4) Package Windows Mobile image to suite your device memory configuration
I other words: mission impossible.
You can try to use the cab at this link to run WM software.
hmm damn.. there is no point for dump rom to sd card... but if its possible to get this rom somewhere in the Internet. maybe somebody have it here in this forum.. because i found a thread but the link to the image is down...

Great, here we go again!
I've been trying to install tomtom 7 on my replacement HTC DIAMOND after successfully installing it on the first phone but it's just wont find the maps.
The same files that I used to install on the initial diamaond and the same ones i'm trying to install on the new device.
The meta file has been created and all that stuff successfully, copied all the files the the internal storage, get my device id to create the meta file, copied the file created back into the map folder, start tomtom "no maps found".
Anyone got any idea what I'm doing wrong or is it that the files used (maps) have already been installed on a previous device?
cheers
You have a new device so a different devicecode. You need to contact tomtom support for a new mapcode.
From the procedure he describes I don't think that this is actually legal...

You sure its the same version of TomTom 7. Tomtom 7 stand alone VGA version is actually different (in terms of meta) than TomTom 7 for HTC Diamond.
Also, ensure your device ID has not changed.

Be aware of that the maps must be in the first level of the folder, not like
maps/maps only maps or whatever your mapfolder is called, usually the name of the map. This is a common mistake.

Yeah - just dump map folders in the root of the Internal Storage/storage card area
Yeap, the maps are in the first level folders on the storage card with the folder for voice & the raster folder.
So would the general consensus be that it should work on the new device ? I mean bear in mind I have installed it on the other device before and now I'm doing the same process on the new device and following the instuctions down to a T.
Hi, as far I know... After installing TomTom 7 you will have a "filename".bif in Program files\Navigator
open the .bif file and you will see your device code, use the code and you should find the cards.

warez again - just pay for the damn software and you have a trouble fee install
I am very fussy with my toys, and like to have what i need / use and not everything else that others have loaded, this is nice, but i dont end up using the programmes, so they annoy me as take up space
If i install a lite rom, with no prgrammes but a recent version, i take it i can then load the programmes i use / want and basically build my own device?
or is it easier to downloaded a kitchen and the programmes and make my own rom? i have currently got duttys 1.7, seemed to get high reviews, and looks good, but for me it doesnt feel right, some icons are not crisp, and i wont use, so thats annoying me.
then i have folders for apps and media etc, i loaded my programmes onto the mem card and after installing the new rom the proggies were still on the mem card (didnt know if would get wiped) so i copied the shortcuts to the programmes folder, but i cant copy to the indivual folders that they belong in.
where do i get the official programmes from if i want to build my own rom? like or the important / required stuff? or is that all included and the kitchen helps with adding extras?
its far easier to install a lite rom and then start adding your own applications. which, by the way, cannot be done by simply adding the shortcuts from the microSD to the Program Files directory. you need to have the .cab file for every program you want to install.
if you want to cook your own rom, you need to read about cooking and kitchen essentials. basically, you may find in there most programs you may want to include in your rom. also, there is a description on how to add other programs of your liking to the kitchen. there used to be a kitchen guide very good detailed around here, but cant seem to find it anymore.
i only added the shortcuts as i had originally installed my applications on to the storage card, so i guess all the nessassary files were there, and i was able to add a shortcut to the programmes folder for access from the start menu.
i think i`ll go with a light rom, and install programmes i want / need.
if that doesnt work, then i can try making one myself.
i am worried i will forget to install something important, will a lite rom include everything needed for the phone to work as it should? (all the touch functions, and camera, album, texts, signal, be able to play media files when install programmes for it etc)?
hi Sir
i upgraded my (i-mate pocket pc HP10b ) from wm2003se to many roms i got from this great forum. I tried almost all Ather and C_Shekhar roms,although sun dream wm6.5 .
found most of them great stable and fast but the big problem which may make me mad that when i install any program ( .exe from pc or .cab from sd) the windows ask me were i install it, but any where i choose the program install only in the main memory. when i install the original rom (PPC_RUU172126WWE_imate) the proplem is solved and all app installed easily in sd card. I am using skyscape medical . and medical wizards softwere.
i searched this forum many times about this but i failed.
So,, please any one can help me( i don't want to go back to wm2003se)
Have you tried to install another Program (maybe Resco Explorer) to Storage Card? Does that work?
