WM6 iPaq hx4700 Rom - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Any chance of seeing a hacked rom of Windows Mobile 6.0 running on an ipaq hx4700?

Kozhura, the genius behind the success of WM5 AKU 3.5 on HX4700 said that he will be workin on WM6 after finishing the russian build of WM5. so just hang in there.

I also hope to see this for US units too, that would be great. It's too bad HP discontinued the best PDA they have ever made....

Anyone have any info if anyone has started "hacking" WM6 into a HX4700 ?

HP iPAQ Pocket PC Hx4700 ROM
Is WM6 upgrade worth it?
If so I am ready to pay a small donation for the same. I am sure there are other members ready to do so.
Good Luck.

I've got WM6 (chinese simplified localization) on my hx4700. Will post it on pxdxa.com soon.
Yes, there are some bugs, but at least It's a WM6 and it's working.
So ... I think you will get your ENG version ... Just wait

chamine,
mind you post some drooling screenshots

Show screens? Why not ...
Yes, XIP files was from Universal's wm6 (quite old though) and IMGFS from M$ emulator image (also not that latest).

Looking forward to this, some features of WM6, I really could use, never mind a fresh update for my $700 PDA....

WM6 is faster than WM5.

I'm using WM6[MagLite Edition,A01] on my AXIM x50v.
It's faster than WM5(wm2003se-like performance). and WM6 supports SDHC(over 8GB SD cards).
of course, it has some problems. for example, some applications doesn't work on WM6.

Well, it's confirmed...kozhura is working on WM6 for the HX4700 and in a week or 2 we should see a beta. Yes !!!! After what he (and his partners in this) did with WM5 on the system, I can't wait to see what he does with WM6 !!!!!

Sorry, it's already there, but unless you are a chinese rom-master (for whom, if any, I posted it) - I will not recommend to use my version, because I will not update it any further and after some time will delete it from that forum.
But kozhura+qwerty surely will release a more better english version soon, qwerty's mod of aku3.5 was really good so I think wm6 will be even better.

This file I've put here (not for long) for a chinese ROM-masters (if any) to continue work on this ROM because I don't have much desire (and time) to hack MS roms further.

been there a while ago and as expected was not able to read any feedbacks about it, thx chamine for the efforts its a pity that you're discontinuing your project, goodluck on your next endeavour. Ill just wait for kozhura's WM6 rom to finish.

Wm6 Trinity Pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

crossbow for trinity is here!
Great news, man!
Is it your device?
Pictures aren't really what we have been waiting for. Rom dumps are. If you need help with how to do that, I'm sure many people here will be glad to show you how.
and how about some commentary on WM6 performance with the Trinity... and a WM6 ROM would be nice
that is official Rom or Cooked Rom?
Hope Official Rom

I do not believe that this is WM6 on a trinity. I think this is the Crossbow Wisbar Advance Skin that I use with a fake Info Screen?!.
You can find it here:

t LOOKS like WM6 but its only a skin. Show us html-Mails and the other WM6 features.
Give us the ROM, if you got it, please!

these screen can be full preview pictures from tytn's rom))
mada where puo' to take this rom?

Yes it's very simple to put a screenshot from tytn with wm6 for exemple in the trinity's photo.
What is the point of posting this and then just nothing! Why doesn't ovosleep comment on it? Well I have the same feelings as most of you, this is fake! (Prove me wrong please )

Official HTC TyTN WM6 ROM out?

Dear guys,
Anyone know when the official HTC TyTN WM6.0 will be ready for download? I like the sexy body of TyTN rom, slim and less rubbish. Latest WM5.0 ROM VER.2.11 will give you nearly 51MB free ROM and 31MB RAM, running stably. Even i updated Dopod (SG) WM6.0 but not statified since there are lots of rubbish and having pity small free ROM and RAM.
Look forwarding to SLIM and STABLE TyTN official WM6.0
As far as I know, there is a official wm6 of htc released, the whole hermes wm6 section was full of threads and download links..
try to use search..Then you dont have to start anymore threads with bull **** questions like this.
and welcome.

@Bram87.....you could also not result with bull**** answers. Please read the question before firing back with aggressive crap like that.
The ROM released earlier this week was the DOPOD 838 Pro Official ROM...NOT the HTC TyTN ROM which the OP was referring to.
@albao....Give me a sec i will check and see if HTC has a ROM to download yet....
EDIT: Looks like there isnt a HTC ROM available to download yet.....not surprised. Im sure one will leak to us soon.

Just wondering (honest question): is the the real site?
I mean, I also check http://smart-phones.be (registration required), and it offered a ROM update (RUU_Hermes_QTEK_WWE_2.11.255.1_104_6275_1.38.00.10_108_Ship.exe) TYTN that was (and still is) not listed on the europe.htc site... So I'm keeping an eye on both sites.
So far no luck though...

For cool code (both QRCode and Datamatrix) you can also use this http://www.i-nigma.com
Try register (free) and create a personal code that enable others to dial you number directly or store it on their addressbook.
right now the closest youd get to a HTC Branded WM6 OS would be to
1. Install either the Dopod, AT&T, or O2 Germany Release
2. When the screen comes up "Customizing now", immediately Soft-Reset
That doesnt allow it to do its branding of the phone - so itd be the closest thing to OEM WM6

Wm5 -> Wm6 -> Wm5

Hi,
I bought an HTC p3600 last week and upgraded it WM6 for no obvious reason at the time. I tried over 6 different ROMs, and no offense to the beloved cookers, i couldn't stand the bugs, so I downgraded to WM5 again. The only things I'm missing from WM6 are the task manager menu on the top right of today menu (xBotton), which was extremly handy, the lovely big TouchPad and KeyPad, keyboards which Bepe has put in his ROMs, which are very good for writing messages with one hand, and the quick search in emails, while you typed your search string while in the inbox or any other folders. The last but the least is of coures, HTC home which is so good looking and handy.
Now is there anyway i could install these on WM5? I need cracked versions of course, as i'm leaving in Iran and due to lovely embargos getting worse every day I have no means to pay for stuff. So pls comment.
rgds,

Try using the Dopod WM6 ROM or search this forum for the cab files you want.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319125&highlight=task+manager
Here is one task manager, i used search-> advanced search to find this
edit: here is the newest one

Use the advanced search function of the forum and your find all you need - you seem to be very familiar with searching so I wont explain that too!!
i turn from 5 to 6 too, nothing changed but good looking.
what is the bugs some people always saying? can someone give me a example?

One example is that ActiveSync was loosing it's connections in one of the cooked ROM's. That's not a problem if you use it only as phone but not handy when you sync mail from Outlook etc.
It's a big bug, but within a day it was fixed in that ROM and I could choose to use other ROM too.
The forum is called XDA Developers and that means bugs, but lastest developments too. You can't ask a bug free ROM incl. the lastest software. If you want that bug free ROM, maybe you consider an official build or consider another sort of phone like a Nokia 3310.
OR
Define your most important feautures and select one which has those features working. Report the bugs in the other features, but don't complain about them.

I did installed successfully, without any trick or crack the HTC X-Button 1.5 onto my wm5 official Qtek ROM on my Wizard.
So you can definitely have it on your wm5 ROM, just try to find the cab on the forum, it is somewhere there.
If you don't find it PM me, I will upload it for you.
To the attention of Eqbal
Hey dude, got your PM.
As requested, find herewith the X-button 1.5 that I'm using on my wm5 wizard.
Enjoy!

WM6 for HP iPaq hx2495?

hi
is it possible to code WM6 to the iPaq hx2495?
i recently bought it and windows mobile 6 looks really nice, so i would be very happy if there was wM6 for it.
can anyone tell me how?
or somehow..code it for me?
thanks,

http://all2me.blogspot.com
wut does that say?
so i download the .exe from http://all2me.blogspot.com/2008/02/wwe-version-of-wm61-for-hx2000b-series.html
and run it?
is it actually wm6.1 or a modified version of it?
does it work well?
hi,
I am glad that you started your own release of WM6.1 But it is possible for you to create some changelog or something? What has been added, what registry changes has been cooked in, what size of pagepool you used etc. I like to know what has been changed when I compare your two versions of win CE. I do not speak/read russian, even if I am from europe (but I know vodka well ) Right now I using 4PDA version from here. I will gladly test your ROM, because every time something new is out, I will try if it is better or not. Also if you need test something, let me know. My device is hx2790b. Nazdarovie.

windows mobile 6.1 release..

Wasn't windows mobile 6.1 supposed to be released n mid february? its the end of the month n i haven't heard any word about it.. can some 1 please update me?
thanks in advance
sorry if the answer to this question has been posted already
I have not heard anything about the release yet...
some folks in the smartphone forum are cooking a version of 6.1 to work with a vox. not sure if anyone is working on a version for us but sounds like they're making progress over there anyway.
umm... is it even out yet though
Pre-release beta test versions for the Moto Q8 were leaked, and that's what people used to cook WM6.1 ROMs for various HTC smartphones.
I made one for StarTrek a couple days ago. Just like the WM6.1 Professional for touchscreen devices, it is not an official release.
Kavana released a cooked Chinese WM 6.1 rom for excalibur:

The diference from new HTC ROM:
The WM 6.1 improvements - use google to read about it
Many many useful tools - its hell more easy to have almost everyting you need in ROM - cracked and working
The speed is good - I don't know is this faster then new HTC, but it's fast enough and definitely is not slower.
New super cool sliding theme with usefull staff.
And that is all I see for now.
The big fat minus is the fact this rom is for Chinese people. You have full translation for Windows, but some programs is on stable Chinese language - but you don't need to use everything. I speak about 2-3 tools. Everything else is in English.
