Hello all, first off this is the absolute BEST PDA forum around. And Ive found just about all information I need. I JUST NOW successfully HardSPLed my device! W00T! Ive looked around and cant answer my last question though, I want to use a rom that is a WM6.1 bc I want threaded text, ive currently got wm6 on my T-Mo Wing (Herald) or whatever you guys like to call it lol. Do I need to do anything before flashing the WM6.1 Rom? Any suggestions on what Rom to use? I really like the idea of touch flo! Any help is appreciated!
Okay, Sir.
First off all you should know that I'm kinda new to the XDA scene as well but I've manage to flash my device right at the first attempt. What you have to do is following:
1. HardSPL your device
2. Check bootloader if process was successful
3. Get the RUU and put your *.nbh into the RUU folder (Image)
4. Run ROMUpdateUtility.exe and follow the steps
That's it. Be sure to be ActiveSynced all the time!
Oh and for the ROM request: I can strongly suggest OpenTouch V7.7 Manilla2D - a pretty nice ROM imho.
If there are any questions left don't hesitate to ask
Cheers
i'll recommend the easier flash method, as long as you have a microSD card. you can download any rom image your wish to flash, and place it in the root directory of the sd card as HERAIMG.nbh (i beilieve. look it up, i haven't flashed in a while). just hold the camera button down as you turn on the device, and it'll load into bootloader mode. from there, just follow the instructions.
while opentouch and many other roms that already have many programs are nice, i always recommend the exact opposite. the best and fastest rom i have ever used is just2clean. it has tons of free memory left, and just the basics pre-installed. makes a great base to install just what you want, and easily be able to remove what you don't.
Awesome. Thank you both for the info! I think im gonna go with OpenTouch V7.7 Manilla2D. Ive seen youtube vids on it and it looks appealing.... Thanks again... Going to update as soon as i get off work =P. Will post if i have any problems. But maybe ill ask a last question, will OpenTouch V7.7 Manilla2D leave me much space left over after the flash?
Around 30MB afaik. If you need more space for apps etc. try the JustMe ROM with up to 70MB of free storage.
Cheers
Ok so i couldnt actually find the download link to 7.7, like i click on the 7.7 link in his sig, but couldnt actually fond the download. but i read clear thru the forum and found V7.3..... Successful install...Now I think im gonna try his windows vista beta. Thanks for the help!
Well, have fun at reflashing Here are the links to build V7.7

Lol im d/l it now. Got sent home from work bc of power failur... yay. But where did u find the link? i looked ALL over lastnight. The Touch IT Vista Beta worked well but i was really wanting this Open Touch 7.7 so im flashing again! Once again thanks... See ya on the other threads!

Not a big deal this thread, its not a protest agains any "recent happenings"
I just wish to start a (mainly) X1 development place where we (developers and chefs for x1) can help eachother out.
Im am soon to share all my kitchen packages, inlcuding my kitchen (some trix im keeping, but not packages or files) and I hope thats a direction we all can go.. but I will respect those who dont agree, and I I hope those who decide to work with me on this, wont judge those who dont want to either.
Also I would like that when we get stuff from this thread, we give credits to those who contributed to solve the problems.
I will ofcourse kick in help on other ppls projects if I am able...
I WILL DELETE NON TOPIC POSTS. IF YOU HAVE NOTHING OF VALUE TO SAY, PLEASE DONT POST HERE.
cheers
My contribution for now:
Packages from Rhodium
All is setup for Bepes Platformrebuilder, so if you use another kitchen, then theese wont work, you will have to convert to standard oem packages.
I have to much work on my hands to convert them, so I hope those who do convert to standard packages, will upload them here.

i got a few things workin on the dialer, will check back l8er with progress and files if thers any..
my roms aint protected so feel free to use all files..
have a blast at the party.
I want to share my Manila OEM package. This package is about 1000 files smaller than the common version and has a patched ManilaToday.dll (thx fireball2k) which almost solves the right softkey bug. It makes your rom cleaner and you have some mb more space. It´s working only on WWE rom versions.

hi all,
I recently bought myself an X1, and want to start cooking
i develope hardware and sofware for a living.
To become a chef, I first need to know some basics. is there any good wiki where de structure is explained?
Maybe someone can help me to get the HTC Fingermenu to run. This my current package status, it doesn´t work for me.
http://rapidshare.com/files/207108444/Fingermenu.rar.html
@smaberg
I´ve managed to get the dialer working except some links and the conferrence call
I can unfortunatly not share the dialer package at the moment, I promised that I would not share it just yet, if not.. I would not have gotten it...
But, its not the dialer I recieved wich "worked out of the box" because mine package works with rc2 also. So there are more to it then just release the packages, I need to figure out what makes this stuff "tick" before I release the packages I made myself.
I am gonna share the stuff I got, but I cant share what I got from my source...I hope you guys understand this...
Ofcourse I can share my old packages, but they dont work the correct way yet...
I know that many thinks that why cant I just release them and say its my fixed ones?..but that would not be fair to my friends who shared their work with me
If I was to release them now, it would be nice for all im sure, but then I would cut of a tie to a friend, and I would also loose a good developer that can help out if I need assistance in future projects...
I feel a bit sad that I cant upload it just yet, but I will do what I can to give you guys good packages to work with.
thx for understanding

dont look in the dialer package, you need more packages from topaz that is not rebuild with regsettings from blackstone...you need the correct settings, and some dll's, but, read my previous post on this
cheers
Thx,
I can fully understand your arguments. But I´m more interested in getting the Fingermenu working. May you help me there? I´ve attached the oem package for that in the previous post I guess there is a package, file or whatever to get this working are you allowed to release the secret just for the fingermenu? Any little advise

I will look into it, there are some basic files that is needed by most of the new stuff, so I will check it and have a look
edit, you are missing most of the files...or you might have them in other packages..and regsettings are under 50% of what is needed..for now I can say wich files, but you need to look for the regsettings yourself (sorry cant do better right now)
CALIBRI.TTF
EmailMenuEnhancement.dll
htcDutils.dll
HTCUtil.dll
ResProxy.dll
FileUpload.dll
HTCScroll.dll
ResLoader.dll
I had those myself in my package, but I didnt have all the correct regsettings...
Hope it helps
here is full ORIGINAL Rhodium keyboard (not from the infamous duttydump)
its not modded in any way..
OEM Rhodium
Thanks for your help, I will see what I can do

Ok thanks, and as you know im working on the 6.5 release right now, and i got the dialer to work on boot, but when resetting or restart it wont work anymore, and as you said ill guess half the regsettings are missing as the menu thingi wont work proper either. its a damn shame...
by the way, my 6.5 package will be released puplic as i wont protect it. it mush faster with new touchflo than the old 6.1 -go figure, damn micrsh...
but ill respect you and your source (i wont meantion his name here)
but how long do you think before release? i really need it for my 6.5 release... if i cant get it to work myself, i think i got all the files needed, maybe a few missing.
Phonecanvas here
http://rapidshare.com/files/207293072/PhoneCanvas_3_50_33968_0.rar
can someone provide even a simple list of files of new fingermenu? I need only for my "green" purposes
Hi,
have a look at page 1, I postet the OEM package for this

i want to develope a rom with android 2.2 for the HTC imagio but have no idea where to start. need some help
cant wait android 2.2 running on Imagio .... need some help
First off, if you would search before you post, you would know that you can't make an 'Android' ROM for a windows mobile phone. You Can however install a package that allows you to boot XDAndroid.
Blackstone build (which is most likely compatable with the whitestone) here
And if that doesn't work, well you're pretty much out of luck.

there is a user on PPCgeeks that explains how its done, i think the user is "drellisdee"

The HTC Vogue is a WinMo phone with members very actively developing Android ROM's. My Vogue runs Froyo when I give it break from WinMo. I do boot from the SD card, but many boot straight to Android, with no Windows mobile to be found..

Exactly. I have 3 vogues that all boot Android 2.2 from NAND, so yea, don't listen to Dean. If HE would have done HIS research, he would have known all about that.
Please build an Android ROM for the Imagio.
-M
Subscribed. Wishing this to come a reallity.
id like to see this also
okay great, so who's working on it?
Can one of you just try using the blackstone ROM please and let the rest of us know if it works?
You can always flash back to stock, so someone just try it.
My old Vogue just died, and getting a replacement is $90 since it is discontinued - OR - I can get an Imagio for $50 with my new-every-two deal.
Since I want to stick with Android, I need to know.
-edit-
nevermind...Imagio has forced data plan...VZW jerks! Guess I will stick with the Vogue replacement (no forced data required)
If you want android *DONT* get the HTC Imagio, nobody is working on it...
Android uses Apache License

I completely disagree with you, are you really a developer?, look at the Apache License in wikipedia
Free software can be modifyed !!
Do you still want to develop Android for the Whitestone?
I know where to start !!

Agreed...ThaDeanesta doesn't know what he/she is talking about. There are tons of Android ROMs for Windows mobile phones. The most active community is probably the HTC Vogue/HTC Touch forum for custom Android ROMs running on stock WM 6.1, 6.5 devices.
It booted (i guess) !!

[Hi, i was ale to boot yesterday but i found a problem with the LCD screen, it is not recognized and is blank, i think maybe we can work it out using the correct command line arguments in the startup.txt HaRET file
Please try it, i need help:
http://www.4shared.com/file/h9LTDTdp...imagiotar.html
The screen is blank, but i know it boots because it turns off the screen after a minute and responds to the "send" buttom and turns on, also it created a data.img and FSCK0000.REC file
There's a lot of work to do but we are on the right way !!!

First off, I'm using 826X WM6.5 Rom, build (January 26th 2011, latest as of now).
I was using X1BC to make my "TAB" key emulate the CTRL key, and it worked but that was when I was using an older build of 826X's rom. Now that i'm using his newest rom, X1BC doesn't work anymore. I can't remember why but it's something to do with the newer ROM builds (not specific to 826X roms but other roms that are 29xxx or something like that).
So, I then tried to use AEButton Plus (latest version and fully registered) but that produced some problems. Sure, it works but not completely. If I register the TAB key to long key press and emulate it as the CTRL key, it'll work but even though I hold down the TAB key, the actual TAB function will still perform and I don't want that.
Also, it doesn't register every key that I tried to store, such as the Symbol or Windows key. It's hard to explain but let's just say it doesn't work completely and is annoying to use.
Lastly, I tried X1BH (updated version of X1BC) and that doesn't work either, I can't find any options to set my TAB or Windows key to emulate it as CTRL key.....
So does anyone have any suggestions?
826x rom
i use the same version of 826x rom 29007 with sense 2019.. and i can use CTRL+C or CTRL+V.. maybe some thing wrong with the sofware.. u can ask the problem to the creator of the ROm (Willyung) maybe he can help ur problem.. because everytime i has the problem with his build i alwasys ask him for solution.. just talk to him in his blog.. http://www.826x.blogspot.com/ of send him a private email.. im sure he will help you...
thanks for the reply mate.
Hmm are you using X1BH for the CTRL+C and CTRL+V functions?? I tried downloading that rom and reflashing 3 times and still couldn't get X1BH to work, so i'm pretty sure it's not the rom problem.....
I remember reading somewhere (I think in the X1BH topic) that newer rom builds have changed something therefore X1BH doesn't work properly in some cases, so I'm sure that's the case since X1BH works fine on older rom builds....
And ya I always ask him questions on his blog as well but he never replies to me. He does reply but he's probably too busy most of the time, I guess i'm just unlucky

theres no official ROM because there hasn't been a need for Samsung to release one and because very few people have this device which is an amazing device, its not been leaked either
Tell me, what do you mean by you have installed a custom ROM 8779? that OS version isn't available to us, we have only 8773 from MS
To my knowledge There are no custom ROMs, there are no official ones, there are no OS dumps, there is no access to use the download mode, or change the bootloader, there is however limited access to the diagnostic mode, parts of the EFS, parts of the RAM and several other low level areas of the device outside of the OS

i cant get the rom , they wont share them
i cant upgrade my phone too (the wp 7.8)

the other way to upgrade my phone is send my phone to the dev

very interesting, and your English is fine
there are three possibilities
1, Its faked, its so easy to change that info screen
2, its real but they didn't install a custom ROM, they have gained access to the 7889 CAB files and updated the OS manually
3, its real and they updated the ROM somehow
if you would mine could you try and dump the ROM, using QPST Here
its not easy to use and don't ever hit any buttons marked "write" if you want to help ill type up instructions, but essentially you need to make sure the SPC is correct, then download this, then put your phone in to diagnostic mode using the diagnostic tool, add the COM port to QPST and connect to the phone, click start clients, then software download, click multi image, then fill in where you want it and click start, your phone should restart in to a download mode and after that I don't know what will happen, to get out of the download mode you just unplug and hold the power button until it turns off.
ill write a more detailed guide if you want to help

To stop the Demo demonstrations, you have to install ROOT WP7 TOOLS.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867048
Then in explorer you have to go to the Startup folder (windows\StartUp) you have to create a new folder and copy all files except RetailDemoService.lnk.
Then in Registry, you have to go to shortcuts folder (Local Machine\System\Explorer\Shell Folders) and change the StartUp file, change the value data from \Windows\StartUp\ to \Windows\StartUp\new\.
After this restart the device.
I hope i helped and I'm sorry the bad English.

Hey Dazza, I wish you guys the best in finding a way to develop a custom rom. I myself am trying to help get custom roms for my Dell Venue Pro. Anyways, I have this Samsung Focas S that has a demo and I want to disable it as of Ricardox6 instructions. I just did the windowsbreak, but I want to know do I install now that XAP Deployer or can I just jump straight to the wp7 root tool?
thanks again

...heheh Ok I am really lost in how to get XAP Deplorer on to the phone. Also Xap Handler says to install WP7 Root Tools first . So I don't know which way or how to do this. If you don't mind giving me some simple instructions. I would greatly appreciate it. I already got the windowbreak done.
