i need help for this question:
the aku 3.2 beta8 from ivan its a extende rom or the rom?
if i upgraed mi xda with this aku,i need to upgrade with another file or the aku have the necessary files?
thanks
Good if you have a source for us to see.
Anyway, usually it is ROM and Ext ROM in a package, for such releases. You can know this by unzipping the contents. If you have XXXX.nba (as in something_something.nba) file, you have the ROM. If you have tons of CAB with AutoConfig.txt (I think), you have an Ext ROM.

hello just need to know how do i install programs in the unlocked ex rom as when installing apps from active sync it only has 2 options 1 divice or 2 memory card ..
also if i do a cold reset will the stuff in the unlocked ex rom be deleted?.
Does anybody know how to change the Ext ROM? I searched on buzzdev and this forum and didnt find anything.
I would want to make an Ext ROM because I'm trying the different AKU 3.2 beta's and am reinstalling a lot.
Cheers in advance.
have a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=251710
but why do you put your cab files in your unlocked extrom, install one of the aku 3.2 roms without the extrom and after that install you own cabs from your extrom?
I do it kind of this way with my sd card because I want to see what the guys put new in the extrom of the new aku3.2 variants.

I'm not interrested at all in their ext ROMs, I know exactly what I want and where to get it (I just dont know how to include it in a ext ROM)
I'm in it for the best, most stable and fastest OS.
i have UK Orange M700,
i have flashed successfully twice using SSPL with LVSW & mUn 2.00.S.E!
is it possible to flash to official WM6 using SSPL? like i have already done

But the only answers seem to be "flash HardSPL" & official WM5 rom, which i dont have being on Orange M700!
i want to be able to flash using SSPL straight from 1 cooked Rom to another.
p.s. i'll make sure i P.M. you before i start another thread!

No it isn't, here's the answer:
The "official" WM6 rom NBH file has the OS part tagged as 0x401 (256Mb NAND) instead of 0x400 (128Mb NAND). Only the new SPL-3.03 included in this "official" upgrade is able to understand 0x401, so SSPL, HardSPL or CrashProof SPL or whatever that's not based on this SPL-3.03 (or newer) will not be able to understand the NBH header type 0x401 and will stop at OS flashing.
The solution is simple:
Unpack the NBH and repack it tagging OS as 0x400, then flash it using SSPL, or whatever hacked SPL choice we have.
i've never tried unpacking an NBH or retagging!
is this something the knowledgeable cooks on here will manage easily?
one moment and I'll post a safe and re-tagged file for all.

thanks, i appreciate the offer, but i think i will wait for a cooked Rom with HTC homeplug, audiomanager & no slow down?
apparently the only way to get HTC apps with no slow down is to have them cooked into a rom?
Just CID unlock your phone, it works just fine.
Using SSPL-TRIN.exe or have you got to CID unlock?
With Pof's CID Unlocker. Has worked for me, and my friend.

good
my device is dopod 810 eng ver (HK). I flashed it to chinese ver WM5 before using SSPL. For WM6, i have no problem flashing to SEA ver. But always get invalid vendor ID for the Trad. Chinese rom.
I then tried to unpack and pack it again with 128MB size.
and work like a charm
thanks all!!

May I know how to repack the file with 128MB size?
Can I use Randomize's method to make a superstorage rom from Vp3g's rom? Where is he anyhow? Sure miss him.
Chris
WHy would you want to make a version when it is already available (Pandora Naked first release I think!).
But to answer your questions, yes you can make that ROM super storage...
Use the HyperCore kitchen to dump the rom, swap out the XIP folder and the OS.nb and rebuild. Easy if you've done it a million times, a little tricky for a first-timer.

Hi, I dont have my Softbanks TyN Hermes 200 base ROM. I reflashed ones to shaps WM6.0.
It is recomended to flash original ROM before reflashing to one of the latest ROMs.... is there a good generic I could use instead of my original ROM? or should I just flash the new ROM directly?
thanks!
Its usually recommended to flash to original ROM when you flash a hyperstorage ROM, ie. OS and ExtROM merged! If not, just flash them and it should be ok.
What i do is strip out just the OS and ExtROM from the orginal one and make a RUU just by themself. I flash this before i flash the ROM i like. That way, i dont mess with radio, IPL, SPL etc.

When I saw this post I thought exactly about this. Can you please post this "stripped" version of the official ROM, I'm growing tired of reflashing Radio every now and then. BTW, I was trying to do this a few days ago and got more confused than anything, so I just quit.
Thanks in advance,

I dont have a rapidshare or any of the file sharing account and file is about 80MB, so i dont have a good way of uploading the file. Did you try using dutty's tool (can be found in any kitchen) to strip the RUU file and rebuild it again? That's what I did, if that helps.

Excellent, figured it was something like that. Thanks for the tip!
Hello,
I wanted to follow this method, but my original rom (softbank x01ht, wm5), is not available anymore. Can I use another generic rom, and in wm6 version? And using dutty's tool, are the "version" and "language" fieds important, or is it just for the info in the phone (as it will be a transition rom, I really don't care about it, even is it wasn't transition rom by the way)? Sorry for the noob questions, but I'm trying to avoid bricking my phone...

I am not sure about softbank, but if you can install any hermes ROM, then you should be good to go with any official hermes ROM.
I never change the version and language in dutty's tool when i create my own ROM's!
Ok thanks, that's all I needed! I will take the cingular rom as it seems it was the one which gave best results on hard reset issue.

Hello Guys!
I just recognized that Windows Mobile 6.5 is very fast and that it also doesn't need as much memory as 6.1. But in every 6.5 ROM I found there's something missing I would like to have in.
Where can I get a WM6.5 Kitchen? The best would be when it is with the latest build available.
I Just don't know where to get this, and I never cooked before, just want to try with it (don't ask me why, I just want to)
It would be very nice if someone can give me a link for a kitchen.
Thanks in advance
regards

danny_and_2 created a kitchen based on the 21500 build which you can find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503128.
Im also currently trying to create a kitchen based on the Stock HTC 2.03 rom and build 21501 using Ervius' Visual Kitchen but haven't been able to successfully port the XIP yet (device doesn't boot).
Thank you for your answer, I will have a look on it.
To prevent damages because of a non booting device the best way is to flash test roms via customRUU and to place a working diamimg.nbh on the internal storages, or is there any other way?
Regards
Fireblade310
I tend to leave a copy of the stock htc rom on the internal storage (as DIAMIMG.nbh) and flash my test roms using customRUU, that way i can always get my device up and running again quickly if things dont quite work out.
