Upgrading Orange ROM to imate Jasjar ROM

Hello,
I've just received my SPV M5000 and I'm loving it. However I do have a few niggles. Freezing, took ages to get skype to work, unable to install Tom Tom navigator 5.0.
I've heard that the imate Jasjar ROM is more reliable than Orange ROM.
Any information on the following questions would be much appreciated.
Does the imate ROM contain skype?
Where abouts can I locate the imate ROM?
How do install the ROM?
Can Tom Tom navigator run on the device?
Thanks in advance.

TomTom runs on the orange ROM. Its the installation that has problems, and that is to do with the installation package not liking WM5/Activesync 4
You can install TTN by copying over the 5 cab files manually and running them on the device, you will also want to find the 5.1 update cab.
If you do a search you will find the cab, and the information on this board. It took me 15 mins all in.
I know it doesn't answer your question, but might save you turning your phone into a brick!!
Also, are you on orange? If so, how the hell are you going to afford to use skype after the 3months 3g trial ends? :wink: :lol:

Thanks for that.
In response to your question. I won't really be using Skype over 3g. I will only use within Wireless Haotspots using WiFi.
As I am a complete thicky, would you be able to spoon feed me the installation of Tom Tom to my Universal. Where to install, what, etc and the upgrade?
Thanks in advance.

toptaggy,
I'm an irregular poster on here but found myself in the position of having a genuine registered copy of TomTom Navigator 5 and unable to use it on my M5000 having just upgraded from the M1000 and M2000.
Elsewhere on this forum, I found thie following which is a very helpful guide to installing TTN5 with Bluetooth GPS.
Hope it works for you too.
F
TomTom
There are 3 key steps in making TomTom 5 work on an i-mate JasJar with a Bluetooth GPS.
Many tips are scattered around in different Forums.
Here is a COMPLETE overview of what to do.
STEP 1 : INSTALL TOMTOM5
You do this by copying the CAB files from the CDROM (eg F:\PocketPC) to the JasJar and launch one by one from there with the explorer of the JasJar.
You can install voices the same manner by copying the CAB files to the Jasjar (eg from F:\Voice on the CDROM)
STEP 2 : UPGRADE TO V5.1
http://www.htcclub.net/storage/ppcupd510.rar
Extract and copy the files to a folder on the JasJar and install them from there.
STEP 3 : ACTIVATE THE GPS CONTROL PANEL
Fire up a registry editor (eg http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml )
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings
Delete the DWORD marked "hide"
Add a DWORD called "Group" and give it the value of "2" (dec)
The GPS panel will now show up in your connection settings.
STEP 4 : INSTALL TOMTOM5
1. Establish a bond with your GPS and select the checkbox for serial access.
2. In BT, select the OUTGOING port to 8.
3. In the GPS control panel, select the GPS program to 0 and make sure that the hardware one, is set to None.
4. Start TT5 and the GPS settings, select another bluetooth GPS, and you will see COM 0 free. Select COM 0 and close TT5.
5. At the GPS control panel again, now select COM 8 (before we set it up at 0).
6. At BT: select OUTGOING port to 0.
7. Back again to GPS control panel and select NONE.
8. Finally start TT5 and it should connect automatically. Wait for a couple of seconds and click the GPS settings and you should see it has connected.

Hi toptaggy
So far I was never happy with Orange ROMs. But I have a suggestion for you as long a realy good ROM is not avalable.
I installed the VGA tool. With this one the screen is much faster, specialy when turning the screen.
Than with the Total Commander CE the extended ROM is visible (just tip in the adress bar: Extended_ROM ). Here you can fist backup it and than remove unneccessary file as Orange ring tones etc. This will free up you some memory.
With this config my M5000 is working 50% faster as the standard out of the box.
A pitty is that the slider in the memory setting is missing as you had it in W2003 SE.
Cheers

What is the VGA tool and where can it be obtained from ???

Orange WM6

No, I'm not asking if Orange have released a WM6 ROM, what I'm wandering is now that me and Mozzer have both extracted the Orange WM5 roms from the M700 would it be possible to use the Orange specific parts of this ROM and cook them together with a WM6 rom to create a sort of Orange specific WM6 version?
Might be wishful thinking? I'm asking cos it took me long enough to get the ROM dumping to work, so wouldn't dream of having a go at this!

Hello m8,
Just which "Orange specific" parts are you referring to? Can't say I've even been considering this because I'm actually on Voda as my service provider so been concentrating on removing all the Orange crud that I don't want/need!!
Surely there's really only the Orange today plugin and network specifics plus the ext. rom and possibly the radio rom that are "Orange specific"... all of which are easily swapable??
Giz a bit more idea where you're thinking lies with this request and I'll gladly look into it... Personally I'm still messing around with WM5 speed-up and stabilty issues for my next "cooked" rom release, but being rather a pedant for detail it's taking a while b4 I'm going to release anything and I rather think that Dopod will beat me to it with a "kosher" WM6 release for Trinity which may just blow the current crop of cooked ROM's out the water!
Just my 2 cents worth!
Regs, Moz.

alright Moz,
the bits I was thinking of were the software that Orange give you for free on the phone, but not the crappy Orange today screens etc.. but mainly the files around the user agents and how the phone is identified to Orange on the internet. Mainly to access the Orangeworld website cos its quite good for getting quick football results. If you dont use an Orange ROM and access the site you only get a text version of it, which is one of the reasons I flashed back to my old ROM.
cheers

It would be nice to have:
a) A black model Orange SPV M700 "WM5" Factory ROM (including the standard free software, presets and orange today plugin) for reimaging the phone if required -- as in the very latest version June 2007
b) A black model Orange SPV M700 "WM6" Cooked ROM (including the standard free software, presets and orange today plugin along with HTC TouchFLO & Homeplug) also with office apps such as a Hybrid version of AX3L ROM with LVSW ROM (as the splash is very cool!!) -- as in the very latest version June 2007.
e.g. like here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310102
c) Lastly, it would be nice if someone can do a UK SPV M700 backup tool with an install GUI for backup of your own original Phone ROM onto MiniSD card prior to upgrading/downgrading and then to flash to either UK SPV M700 WM6 or back to UK SPV M700 WM5 all in one installer?

lol you dont want much personally the Orange Rom sucks big time. why anyone would want to go back to it is beyond me. mun, LVSW or AX3L's roms are far superior.
my 2 cents worth.

I want the above - but also a plugin that will let my Trinity order and pay for my beers at the bar. possible?

can you post a link to the default Orange ROM you've extracted for WM5 please? I've been having a play around with the roms available here, but with mixed result - it'd be nice to know I can always flash back to 'old faithful'
Cheers,

Mine is only the nbh file whereas Moz has done a proper job and included the radio ROM too

Thanks for that, I had a quick gander but couldn't spot it

I Went back to the Orange rom after I couldn't get my device to be stable under AX3L's rom. Waiting for Indigo!

orange tv registry fix
in case you have not got it workin yet,there is a registry hack which should get you orange tv and identify you as an orange user.
i have got it working on the lvsw rom. and here it is.
HKLM\Security\Internet Explorer\User Agent modify the custom value “PPC; 240×320; SPV M700; OpVer 19.117.2.737.
it worked for me.then goto your orange tv page and all should work.
hope it helps! make sure to restart your trinny after the mod.

Thanks!
I always feel like such an outsider way out here in AT&T land! Thanks for the special attention. Downloading now!

Here's where I get to show my stupidity!
All the other ROM I have flashed have come with a utility to run the process. I tried replacing a previous rar file with this one and running the utility I had, but it changed nothing. I have read all the guides, the step by steps, etc, but the info seems to be for full packetsm not how to insert a new rar. I am dense. I am uneducated, I am sorry!

Thanks Shodowmite. It's good to have someone taking care of us ATT dudes.

What is the difference with other ROM ?
Is there something specific for AT&T ?
Sorry if the question is stupid, but I don't know AT&T particularities... ;-)

ok, have you flashed hard-spl on your phone before? If not, search for it and flash it! Next, you need winrar or some other file extraction program to extract the rar file (a compressed folder) to get the files out. Then you'll find the installer files inside, you run the exe... Hope this helps.

Mainly the big thing is this includes by default the sms/mms and data/proxy settings for cingular/att's network. You can use this rom with another carrier, but you'll need to delete those settings or install you own over top of them.

It's the little things
Thanks for the patience with my idiocy. I got WinRar and am flashing now.

We all have to learn at some point, I was no better when I started long ago... Don't worry about it and just learn at your own pace... Hope you like the rom!

I've updated to Shadowmite 1.1, while this is still a "beta" if you will, it's perfectly stable and appears good. Use this one if you want the HTC Home Plugin available... I've also removed windows live and streaming media in this version:
http://rapidshare.com/files/43857196/Shadowmite_1.1_beta_0.rar.html

Thanks. Good job. Downloading.

Ive had it running for a few days now and have noticed marked improvement on battery life. My only challenge has been running out of program memory during IE sessions. I run MemMaid and clean up, then I can go again, but I'm wondering if I have something set wrong.

Hmm, not sure, but I will be releasing another version maybe tomorrow with a increased available program memory using a 4mb pagepool instead of the stock 6mb.

Slightly off topic but is there a way / application to load apps & information in one go after flashing a new rom or is installing all the cabs one by one the only way.
Thanks in advance
S

Well, dunno if it helps much, but my HTCustom app, which is in my roms has a CABS button which allows you to choose a folder and it starts all cabs in it to be installed for you... but it needs human interaction.
In other news, the rom is ready and uploading now...

Version 1.1 is posted, now with 4mb pagepool, should increase your program memory a little and make it perform a little more quickly. I think this is about perfect now, let me know!

Nice ROM, but...

Hi, A very nice looking ROM - for which... thanks!
BUT... I keep getting... "An unhandled error has occured in the shell. Attempting to restart the shell [ok]". Soon as I hit the OK, phone reboots.
Now, to help u diagnose... I have installed NOTHING on top of your ROM. Only change I made from stock is I removed your Cingular settings .cab and installed the standard HTC ones for my UK Vodaphone network. (Actually, I was getting this error BEFORE I even removed the Cingular .cab)
Only other thing I can say is, I also unchecked the BatteryStatus plugin from the Today items (as I don't like it or need it... or do I, with this ROM? Maybe I will re-enable it a while...)
That's all. I'll try and stick with this ROM as it's the kind of thing I've been working on for myself... nice, clean and tight... but I've had no time recently to develop ROMs so it's easier for me to run with your work and let you do the head scratching!! Still, a nice effort so far - thanks again!
Moz.

Weird, I've never seen that error. I hate to say it, but could you start with the rom freshly flashed and tell me anything I can do to cause this to occur? Or is it random? I do run the battery status plugin on mine (very useful info, especially the current draw) but I've just removed it to see if I can get the error.
Let me know if you have any procedure I can try to get this error.
Also, you removed the cing.cab and then installed yours and ran it? That should be fine as the only cingular branding is that cab being ran after the welcome.

Fixed it... I think!
Ok, so it seems to be your 1.51 version of the HTC X-Button task manager. I always set the "End progs by tapping X" (not the default tap-and-hold option..) The previously mentioned error only ever happens when I'm tapping X to close down something or other... So, I installed my own .cab of this app (v1.5 build 29196) and all is now fine!
I'll probably do a fresh flash of your Rom tomorrow (its 2am now here) just to be sure, but I think I'm right in saying that your implementation of the x-button app in rom does not give the x-button icon in /start/settings/system... (i now have this by virtue of my reinstalling the app...) I think this icon *is* needed because if you choose to turn off the x-button "shortcut" thingy in the today screen there would otherwise be no way to get back to the x-button option settings.
Hope this helps...
Moz.

a-ha, I got the error now myself, but only if set to close app on clicking the X and furthermore then closing a system app that is running from shell32.exe. For some reason my entries of immune apps aren't being taken as immune. I'll look into this. Good catch!
The program however is in settings, system and is listed as task manager...

Ok, here is the fix, just install this cab (reg entries only) and it'll be working after the next soft reset... I'll figure out why this didn't work from the main hive before the next release.

Sleuth's Developer ROM v2.0 Released!

v2.0 of my developer ROM is now available. Core/XIP is the official WM6 core. Bluetooth, Power Management, Communications Management and GDI are also from the official ROM. Most of the built in apps have been refreshed. Finally, for you Tom-Tom/VPN addicts, the DUN bluetooth profile is now available in addition to Internet Sharing!
Because my imgfs is completely custom, this ROM will report itself as follows:
CE OS 5.2.1437(Build 17913.0.3.0)
v2.1 of this ROM includes:
Both DUN and Internet Sharing bluetooth profiles are available!
SDHC support: tested with 4GB cards
GLYPHCACHE limt re-optimized at 32,768
Mobile Office 2K7 includes OneNote 2K7
My ATI Imageon patch cooked in
The New Block style CommManager GUI is enabled.
The latest build of HTC X-Button v1.51 cooked into the base ROM.
The Cyberon voice dialer which can save/restore voice tags is cooked in.
Windows Live build 1400 (more stable than what is in the current Official ROM) is cooked into the base ROM
4MB Paging File
Big Storage
A2DP optimized for highest Fidelity based on hardcore's research.
additional apps: GSFinder+, DotFred's Taskmgr, PHM Regedit, SIPChange, Austinboy's Fieldtest, Adobe Reader LE, Audio Manager, Streaming Player
Windows Update and QOS removed
VoIP optimizatons: dialplan normalized for US calling (default areacode is 262 on 7 digit calls), connect over 3G as well as WiFi enabled
Live Search today plugin is set to use Google and works just fine when spaces are part of the search term
can toggle the phone skin between Video and Non-video modes using lsvw's TweakUI program
WM6 tap sounds are enabled
This ROM will play 3G streams or local mp3s over A2DP in powersave mode to Coreplayer or Audio Manager. Unfortunately, WMP can't do this. This is because I forgot to refresh WMP
The Official bluetooth Handsfree Profile has been cooked into this ROM. This provides even better Car Kit compatiblity.
This ROM is free for you to personalize. I'm not in this for the donations (although they're always appreciated ), rather my primary focus is to give you a better Hermes. So, use this base ROM to learn the ROM kitchens then go make your own ExtROM for this to customize Today Screen etc. Simply add a file called preconfig.txt to /windows to enable autoconfig (you'll need to dump a production ROM to unravel the syntax btw) to run your extrom at cold-reset startup. Because Preconfig.txt has been removed, the base rom has no autoconfig and will go directly to the today screen.
Free storage memory remains at about 49MB and free program memory is 29MB. Displayed Today screen items have been reduced and re-ordered in this manner (note: the additional plugins are still present, just unchecked in Today settings):
Date
Live Search
Internet Calling
Owner Info
Email messages
Appointments
The installer will also upgrade your splash screens to the Gold HTC Innovation theme. Your Radio, IPL and SPL will remain unchanged. However, for best results I recommend running a radio that's at least 1.40. AT&T subscribers in the US should upgrade to the v1.48.00.00 radio for vastly improved performance.
I'm using OliPro's latest RUU installer in this version and recommend installing using the SSPL option. Vista users: be sure to check out this guide for how to make SSPL installers work on your version of Windows. Or, jcespi2005 reports that with the latest WMDC (v6.1), you can upgrade through CustomRUU normally like in XP. WMDC 6.1 itself can be found here.

"Bling" in this ROM
Sorry, but there are no fancy today themes, catchy colors or spectacular splashes included in this base ROM. All you get is performance and reliability. Bling is a personal expression, so you're free to add your own.
So, what's on your today screen? Post screenshots! Upload themes & post links and I'll put them below.
CUSTEL's black theme (thanks CUSTEL) http://www.tri-syndicate.com/CUSTEL.tsk.zip (just change the name to CUSTEL.tsk after downloading, its not a zip file). I'm actually running this one now because the block style taskmanager looks better with black menu/taskbars.
v2.0 Release Notes (check back here periodically for updates)
X-Button requires the latest versions of SPB Weather/SPb Time to correct the "Black Font" issue. The latest version of SPB Weather is v1.7.0 Build 767 and the latest version of SPB Time is v2.1.5.
The softkey editor settings are initially out of sync with the actual softkeys. Additionally, you must SR after the first time you use it to get your changes to stick. After that, the program works normally. This is a HTC bug unfortunately in softkeyapplet.cpl
executables stored on your SD card that don't have their own icons will flicker when viewed with the built in Filemanager. GSFinder+ does not experience this quirk. It's very unusual for a Windows Application to not have an icon resource built in so you will probably not even see this one. If you must see what it is I'm talking about, download powerstatus.exe from here, store it on your SC card then view the directory in filemanager.
Be sure to soft-reset after you complete the initial startup. This will activate HSDPA and initialize your WiFi MAC address.
Howto: Speed up CommManager and free up storage memory.
Use PHMRegedit to search for the value "DisableButtonText". Change this value from a 2 to a 0. Reset your Hermes by pressing and holding the power button then answering yes to the dialog that is eventually displayed. The downside is that you disable the "eye candy" interface too.

Sleuth,
What was your base; the Dopod or the AT&T WM6 release?
With your previous release I had some problems car charging; but now I run the Dopod rom and I don't have the problem anymore.
I will try your rom and report back.
Cheers and thanks,
Hellejoep

You mean when you autodetect on the bootloader selection screen?
If so its just that activesync hasnt detected the phone, disconnect, soft reset it, let it boot to windows mobile and plug the usb lead in again.. then try again.

Just flashed this one and noticed something strange.. My WiFi MAC has changed.. it isnt missing.. but it is weird and may be an indication of a WiFi MAC bug..
Its now 00-00-00-00-AC-9D which doesnt look like a valid MAC address..
Im gonna try it now and see if its still working.
/edit: It Isnt working, networks all come up as unavailable when I try to connect to them but its not the same issue as the DeadWLAN one as I CAN activate wifi.

hmmm.. seems that the solution is to turn on wifi, then soft reset.. when it comes back up your MAC will be right again and all will be fine.
Strange bug/error? Or just my device playing silly games?

Instead of auto, choose the version of hardspl that you have installed (boot to tri-color to find this)

Flashed again.. this time its changed too: 00-00-00-00-99-E1
powering on WLAN and Soft resetting has returned it too it's proper value.. Seems to be a weird issue where the ROM cant read the correct MAC on first boot.

[NEW] Mary 3.3.1 SL - (OS 5.2.1933 Build 18533.0.7.0) - (01.11.2007)- NOW ONLINE!!!!!

Hi fellows,
Well, it seems that the work is done! CREDITS to HELLONASTY and ERVIUS!!!!
We would like to invite you to try our new rom MARY 3.3.1 Super Lite, based on the latest available English language Operating System (WM6 5.2.1933 Build 18533.0.7.0)
80MB storage!
Aprox. 30MB free RAM!
This rom is so light, that if you leave your pda in the wind, it will fly away!
MARY 3.3SL - TO BE FLASHED ON WINDOWS XP: http://rapidshare.com/files/66073071/ROM_MARY_V3_3_SL.rar
MARY 3.3SL - TO BE FLASHED ON WINDOWS VISTA: http://rapidshare.com/files/66128715/ROM_MARY_V_3_3_SL_vista.rar

Pros: HIGHEST STORAGE 80MB, A LOT OF FREE RAM AND SPEED!!!!
Cons: It's up to you to let us know about it...don't forget to give us your feedback! Only like that we can improve the quality!
Changelog 3.3SL: Complete clean ROM! Nothing more to add...she's completely naked !!!!!!
Changelog 3.3.1SL (01.11.2007):
FLASH THIS ROM WITH THE MEMORY CARD INSERTED!!!!
-Complete clean ROM! Even more naked !!!!!!
-Even faster than previous release
-Working Smart Dialing
-Configurable MMS
-Colors and themes now corrected
-Windows Media Player, now fully functional
-Removed some useless files and folders (Battery Status Folder still inside...to be corrected on a previous release. If you install Battery Status-see link bellow-then the software will use that folder, so, only for those who don't install this application, this folder would be useless. Anyway, I suggest you install it)
-Smother speed
-Other small optimizations
-To enable the "H" icon for HSDPA, please install Schap's Advanced Config Tool (find the link bellow). However, even if you don't see the icon, HSDPA will be enabled if you activate it in Connections Settings.
This time, I propose to make something focused essentially on speed, stability, memory and storage rather than spending time with aesthetics.
So, inside you'll find basically only the Operating System, with its' basic functionalities. All the rest, you can install by yourself, according to your needs.
It doesn't make sense to fill storage, with applications that you will never need.
Concerning the aesthetics, there are a lot of themes out there...it's just a matter of searching!
I also want to share with you, the best way to make your updates of firmware, as most of the bugs that we find, are the result of a bad-flash. Most of the times, of you re-flash, the bugs disappear.
To avoid this, this is how I flash my roms:
1. Hard Reset your device, pressing OK at the end
2. Before it starts rebooting, make another Hard Reset, but now don't press the OK button. Instead, remove the battery!
3. Wait 1 minute. While you wait, remove the storage card and the SIM card as well
4. Put the battery inside the pda again.
5. Press the buttons Camera + Power + Reset (with the pen, on the bottom of the pda) until you see the screen with color strips
6. Insert usb cable
7. Start flashing the device, as you always do.
8. As soon as it reaches 100% on the screen of the pda, it becomes black for a couple of seconds. Then, make a hard-reset, and press ok.
9. Make another hard reset, but now, but now don't press the OK button. Instead, remove the battery!
10. Wait 1 minute
11. Re-insert the battery, memory card and SIM card
12. With the pen, press the reset button on the bottom of the pda until it starts.
13. Have FUN!!
P.S - I WON'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES THAT RESULT ON USING THIS ROM OR FLASHING PROCESS. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
If you still have problems flashing, I advise you to see this page: http://www.trinityguides.info/
For those who loose their WIFI settings after a softreset, please follow these instructions (thank's dta1974):
[!] For prevent password and account dissapearing u should (you should make this procedure immediately after first soft reset ):
1. Set up your connection settings
2. Open IExplorer / Set up Internet connection / Open some internet page
3. Click Disconnect button to close internet connection
4. Hold power button and turn off your phone
5. Power on your phone.
After that procedure your password wont disapear. I think that you should repeat the same for mail account (set up mail account / try to send or recieve your mail / hold disconnect button / turn off your phone)
We hope that this meets to your expectations!!!

No, it won't be inside the rom. However, there will be links to the most popular softwares (cab). In this case, each one of us can install only what we need
This is the idea behind: have a system looking exactly how you like, and not how the cookers like. Have the software you think it's important, and not the software that the cooker thinks is important.
Bye
P.S- Does anyone have Microsoft Office splitted in cabs: one cab for Word, another for Powerpoint, another for Excel and another for One Note?
Having this, we can install only the office applications that we need!! If anyone has it, please post the links.

Yes.Yes.finally
Yes.Yes.finally

hmmmmmmm, as Homer would say
waiting with bated breath! This sound very interesting!!!
But just how lite is lite?

Nice one, would be cool if *someone* made a GUI to automagically download new base roms, packages(from a central repository). You would download the GUI, select base, packages, mui files(?), press 'Cook', flash(SD Card method allowed).

Just to inform that there is already a ROM like that from Sammy Deluxe:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324804
Of course if this is what the cook want, then it's great to have a nice and clean ROM , but then again, we cannot complaint if the cooker make HIS ROM with a lot of apps.
I hope this release can be the best of all, after all it is made by a PORTUGUESE 'dude'

Hi,
That's the difference between previous roms and this one: the previous roms were roms made for the cooker, and then he shared it with us.
This rom, is not about what the cooker likes, but instead, about making it 99% customizable.
That's the magic word: CUSTOMIZABLE
Bye

RELEASED!!!!
See first post!!!
HAVE FUN!!!

Some tips to cookers to obtain this free storage?

Nice, will try asap.
Has anyone read my previous post? I can provide storage&bandwidth if anyone's willing to create that 1-click kitchen Í described(it could support various rom&pkg repositories, I'd host one for sure).
