Hi All,
I'm quite new to ROM upgrades, but have done a couple.
I'm very keen though on putting WM6 on my Orange M5000, but not sure which you guys think would be best for me to try.
I've spent the last couple of days reading over and over the threads about:-
1. PDAVIET 2.00.07 PRO
2. i-mate JASJAR Crossbow Rom Update 2.01.06 WWE
3. New WM6 Rom of Helmi_c (V1.1)
But am now even more confused than I was before I started, I'm kind of leaning towards the i-mate JASJAR Crossbow Rom Update 2.01.06 WWE, but really dont know why.
Any help would be much appreciated
Those PDAViet ROM's are modified versions of Helmi's earlier ROM, but they've then been filled with third party apps that I don't want. I've been using Helmi's v1.1 for a while and I'm very happy with it.
I haven't tried JWright's Crossbow ROM's, because I'm settled with Helmi's and the base image is the same. When a newer build comes out though, I'll probably upgrade again, no matter who releases it.

The latest PDAViet 2.00.07 PRO combined the Helmi and Jasjar. Basically, they combined what works best in each ROM and all the known fixed to create a better ROM. Basically that what cooked ROM is. You combined the best ROM, tweaks, fixed, suggestions, etc... to create a better more stable ROM.

I tried all 3 roms, now i use PDAViet 2.00.07. I think this rom is the best one that has all necessary functions with big memory and less memory leakage. I can also use Bluetooth stereo with this rom.
Just a little bit of info needed as I am new to all this cooking ROMS.
I am using the Core Kitchen which I have found easy when extracting a ROM and I have been using the schaps ROM as it contats the RGU files with the packages as oppose to the Black Roms which dont and I am not confident enough to be able to sort out that mess yet.
The question is in two parts and I hope you can help me a little.
Part 1: when you extract the ROM what is contained in the OS.nb file the reas on I ask is I want to get a Basic from MS ROM so I can start with my own ROM building as oppose to someone elses (VERY GOOD I MIGHT ADD) ROM.
Part 2: where can I get the RTM M$ WM6 ROM from a rom without any modifications or any added packages just the M$ PDA/PHONE ROM.
Please help this is the only two bits that im really lost with.
I have a Vario 2 on T Mobile uk
you might want to look at the FTP for vanilla wm6 roms...
the last time i checked, it was still there.
I have seen the Vanilla ROM is that the M$ RTM base OS then ???
hey guys,
can you tell me what specs you enter into duttys tool as im having problems?
thanks in advance
PDAJAS
ImateJasjam (HERMES100)
Radio: 1.20.31.10
Rom: Black IV Shadow
Olipro 2.10
Telstra AUS
Not sure im new to all this myself as you can prob tell.
Vanilla ROM has too many missig files that I cannot even find according to the tutorial with CORE an official ROM wont have any missing files schaps only has 1 which i know where to find it so can put it in the right place.
It just seems easier to want to start with a RTM official M$ rom and build on it rather than hack bits out of an already cooked rom.
the FTP?
Where is this? (it's early for me, is it in the wiki?)

Its on the Wiki i looked at Cooked Roms on the main wiki page and then it gave me a list of them that were avaliable. Vanilla was on the top of the list.
Skauk,
you can also give a look at the Dopod ROM posted here in the forum... even that its not the newes build, it has nothing added/mising; it could be a good start point.
Regards;
thankyou I will give dopod a look tonight then its so anoying that you cannot get hold of the latest builds that some of these people have so we might start without the bugs of previous builds...
if anyone knows where I can get a later build RTM that's not cooked already you would be number 1 on my xmas card list lol.
Dopod ispretty hard to work out also so anyone else help me find latest build wm6 so i can build on it ??

I would suggest you spend a little time in the upgrading section. As far as a stock windows mobile 6 rom, the problem is there aren't any yet. Although I think some upgrades may be coming along in the next few months. The roms here are pieced together from other machines or pulled from unreleased versions. I don't know of a true "stock" hermes wm6 rom at this point. You could get a WM5 rom to practice with which would show you what to expect, and what "comes with" though.
Good luck,
After 3 terrible days dealing with diferent wm6.1 roms from here, I go back to my the old and stable K's Wm6 Final.
My experience with Wm6.1 has been completly awfull. HR, screen frezzes, white screens on load, no GSM, App crashes .... Even installing previously a official WWE rom.
I know that there are people working with 6.1 without problems but in my opinion, if somebody need a sure and confiable hermes phone better to stay away from 6.1.
Regards
Pd.: Wm6.1 Roms Installed: last from PDACorner, last from PDAViet, MRH 5.7, and NiaX ESP (All same problems)

Mmmm strange. I use the CRCs V11 since it is available and waiting for the next Shaps french one. Even if my hermes is "french", all applications are working fine (TomTom, a lot of GPS apps, Basic4PPC, astronomy softwares, PocketCM, Tcpmp, etc...). Even video calls are working fine. Battery consumption is fair (no push mail) with 1.47.00.10 radio rom. Till now i did not miss a call and speed is good (obviously, more you add apps, slower is your pda)
Btw, i always "flash" roms using sdcard method. IMO, it is the only reliable way (no possible usb deconnexion, so easy, PC independent,...)
Give a try to CRC's V11. Who knows? You could find your way through 6.1
Hope this helps
Wm6.1 problem
I agree with you. So far try out so many ROM with WM6.1. Encounter all sort of problems like hang when making calls, network not found, auto hard reset. But only Pays WWE 3.00 Final Full this ROM I never face all this problems at all. Perhaps you might want to give a try on Pays ROM 3.00. Cheers!
i'm using crc v11 till now and never experiencing any problem like that.
Did those roms, pays and crc, have Extended rom or are Big Storage?

CRC V11 stores elements in extended rom (as far as i know). If i can suggest something: As you experienced problems with 6.1, just start first with a rom which seems stable. As a test, it is not so important to be Big Storage or not
I have been using MRH 5.5 for several weeks now with out a single freeze. Works great.
CRC12.1
definitely no problems. Unless you want to run microsoft's live search. The only thing that doesn't go and i haven't had a chance to tweak with s2u2 yet
its just ur device... plus u gotta no which one is best for u..
Cloudyfa 's Shadow_TE 2.1 WM6.1 is a stable ROM.
i had use it for about 4 months
Don't know. It could be a personal problem...
I went back to my well known K's Rom and the problems was still there. Now I'm sure that it is related to extended rom, that from time to time and without reason get automatically erased.
I have flash a well know oficial At&T Rom, as adviced by one of the best cookers here, then install again K's Rom final, and the problem disapeared for two days, but it is here again...
Does somebody know If I can flash just a oficial Extended Rom (instead of the full oficial AT&T Rom) or format the extended Storage with some program (pocket mechanic or some other like it)?. I'm a little tired of repeating the configuration proccess...
Thanks
I have flashed again the official At&t rom, as adviced by Dr. Puthingan, and then the K's Final Rom to nothing.
The problem still there.
When I was installing an App to the Extended_Rom the intallation hangs, and after reset all the contens of Extended Rom have dissapeared.
I found only a FilesToBeDeleted folder winth garbage inside (look at screenshoot)
Hey,
I was in the same situation as you were in a couple of months ago...
I've always wanted to tinker around with WM6.1 but I too also found the Ext.Rom to be unstable...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2228473&postcount=703
I always found myself flashing back to the reliable Shamanix Ultimate 2.0 Final.
Finally, I tried this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406111
And, It's been surprisingly stable and no Ext.ROM to deal with.
Again, before installation, you'll have to follow Dr. P's instructions:

Hope this helps

You might want to try the official dopod rom then back whichever 6.1 you want. I found mine was better after doing that.
Hopefully the problems is solved....
I reinstall the At&T, as adviced by Dr. Puttinghan, hard-spl 7, and then the Faria/Dr. Puttinghan Clean Rom.
Now, all is working without issues..
Hi,
I was wondering if theres a very fast and stable Rom who only has WM6.1 and anymore working with my diamond.???
Thank you very much for your answer
That's exactly what I want, too...a ultra CLEAN and FAST rom with just base system, so that I can install any soft I want.
There are plenty...
Look at the chef's LITE/LIGHT editions. Many of these do not contain Manila.
Chef 'swtos' just released an updated LIGHT ROM with no Manila.

I just wanna know if someone was on my situation
I use at the moment AZTORs ROM and i have to said... it rocks! BUt it has to many things that i dont use...

It will be really nice to find a rom with just wm6.1 and all BASIC diamond functions, without TouchFlo (Manila) and fast, secure and stable like AZTORs ROM.???
PD: I tried 7 different roms...
I use the UltraLight Morna 1.8 ROM from the great "Carburano":

All roms are available in ITA or WWE version.
It's stable e fast....
Hi guys, I've read the entire internet looking for a solution...!
and I'm not able to find a solution... (probably because of my english skills...)
I've just bought an htc diamond on e-bay and it has installed a non-official rom which it has several troubles: Rom version 1.37.412.2 ESN
I've downloaded the last available rom in spanish (?):
(RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship)
from the htc spanish site but when I try to install it an ERROR[294] : INVALID VENDER ID, comes up. I've read about Upgrading, cooking, flashing and about Hard-SPL, but I'm not sure to understand rightly enough, so here's my question:
What should I do to install the rom downloaded from htc?
I understood that I have the problem because the hard-spl installed on my diamond causes the problem, so I guess I should install a new one...but which one?, and if I'm wrong... where may I find the information to solve my problem? I'm getting nuts of trying so many different things...
Lot's of thanks even if you don't answer, it's been a long read!

It's not that difficult, trust me...
My personal favourite ROM which sounds like it fits your needs is Suiller's Dia Duit ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=440683
The beauty of this ROM is that, you simply put all your CABs into a directory on your Internal Storage. On hard reset / flashing, a script will automatically all your CABs for you! There's also a lot of other stuff that can be done (search for tweakPers.mscr in his thread).
nice nice really interesting... thank you people for your tips! i hope we can help someone with the same problem ))

When you look at people's custom roms, usually the ones without TF3D are called classic, lite, ultra lite, no manila etc.
The other thing you can do is go to settings and Today and remove the TF3D check box. TF3D will remain installed but it will no longer be running. You can get TF3D back by rechecking the box in Today settings.
make a list of no wanted and wishes language and wait a little bit.
you will get than your wishes rom.
Hi guys...
I like this forum, you can find so much stuff here, which leads me to my question for you, I have a QTEK 9000 (ripped a new and unused one from the internet) which I would like to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.
I know where to find the ROM's and I read everything about how to upgrade, but, I am not so technical in the ROM know about, and before I mess up my beautiful QTEK.
I need some help with information about a good Windows Mobile 6 ROM i can use to upgrade, there are a lot of them, but I am unable to see which one is good and which is not.
I want to use a clean as possible ROM for that, non I-MATE or HTC stuff on it (if you get my drift), maybe I as to much, like i said before, I found the ROM's but can any one of you guys give me hand which one i can use, which is stable and works fine.
I don't use the QTEK as a phone, only as a mini-netbook with wifi :-D
Thanks to anyone responding to my thread here.
Regards, alexander-wolf
alexander-wolf, by stable I assume you mean that you don't want to see your phone freeze when doing important tasks/answering calls...etc? If this is the case, then I can only suggest to use the last WM5 rom from Swat4 found here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409966
Or if you want WM6 rom, try Tomal's v8.2 and v7.7 - I've found them to be the most stable but at times, I had problems with phone freezing when new sms/mms/phone calls coming in.
I've switched back to Swat4's WM5 which has never let me down.
Thnx
@ Final5k
Thank you for your advice, I will give it a go (i allready made a copy of my original WM5 ROM just in case)...
