Official WM6 OS Only - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Ever since I joined this site several months back, I've been flashing cooked ROMs non-stop with limited success in terms of telephone stability and usability. If I were to flash the official release, I would be stuck with Bootloader 1.08 which I understand makes further flashing difficult, if at all possible.
What I would like to do is try and flash the official WM6 OS from Cingular while still retaining my hard SPL boot loader, radio, etc. I looked at NBH Extract, Kitchens and really couldn't figure anything out.
Would appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction on how to just flash the OS portion of the Official ROM release.

On this guide you will find the tools and the "how" to do what you want.
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=41&Itemid=27
The difference is that you will not download a WM5 Rom but the WM6 Cingular Rom and will make the one that you need. For sure OS , ExtRom, Spashes and no radio because you want to keep the same. After you compile the new modified nbh and you upgrade with Hard SPL 2.10 olipro as you did with custom ROMS.
I wish I helped.Good Luck

Thanks
Thanks a lot! I will give it a shot and let you know. Now you mentioned that this will keep my Radio the same as is now, but will this also leave my Olipro 2.10 in tact so that I can do further flashing later?

As long you dont choose IPL and SPL when making the new nbh,yes . Just what mrvanx says. This is because you wont have spl or ipl to new nbh so they wont be flashed to your device. You even can not to choose splashes if you want to keep your own you have now.
Only what "nb" you choose will be flashed to the device.

Thanks Again

WARNING about downgrading from WM6 LVSW Edition (2007-03-20)

Hey all,
I am posting this as an independent thread to be sure it gets some visibility. If an admin judges it should be put into the main LVSW thread, then he is welcome to move it within the LVSW thread. However I'm pretty sure I stumbled onto something that can prevent a lot of pain for some people.
Here is the scenario which occurred to three different people:
- SuperCID device.
- LVSW full version is installed with no problem => SPL 1.09
- Downgrade to any Official ROM using the provided normal RUU. Flashing goes 100% fine, not a single problem
- But upon reboot, we have a brick: Corrupted CID, SPL 1.09, No GSM, and depending on the Official ROM flashed KITL or no KITL (if the former, recoverable through hours of work with Platform Builder, if the later, unrecoverable). Since the flashing went 100% fine, that's weird, to say the least.
This same identical scenario has generated three bricks thus far:
- myself, repaired after a sleepless night spent on Platform Builder (my gratitude goes to Allan's most excellent post)
- lebogus, complete brick, no KITL, unrecoverable
- otto26, KITL, recoverable with Platform Builder
IMHO, three cases like that is too much to be a coincidence, especially after a 100% problem-free flashing of an official ROM.
Therefore, to anyone wishing to downgrade from a full version of LVSW (with SPL 1.09), he should make sure that before downgrading, he replaces the 1.09 SPL with Olipro's Hard-SPL to be sure that even if this scenario repeats itself, he doesn't have to go through Platform Builder.
I hope this thread won't be judged to be abusive and misplaced, if so I apologize.
Anyway maybe this will help someone.
Cheers

I don't think this thread abusive, but can help noob users. Really the HardSPL must convert in "the standar" for upgrading to WM6 in cooking. If someone cook any WM6 ROM, HardSPL must be part of package...
So thanks for your advice.
Heres a quick guide to flashing HardSPL to help users on the way.

I think you're talking out your bloody arse frankly.
I have no idea how you managed to **** up your radio, but that's what you've done, something definitely went tits up and I don't really think it's lwvs's fault unless he disassembled the radio and edited the bloody thing to deliberately corrupt a flash

OK if so I'm sorry. It's just that three apparently successful flashings of official ROMs ending up in bricks look strange to me. Maybe it's theoretically impossible and it must mean that there was some external reason. But you have to admit that three times the same scenario within the last 2 days is an improbable coincidence.
I am not blaming lwvs by the way, his ROM is most excellent, I loved it, but needed to downgrade because of a problem I had with some of my software (WM6's fault, not lwvs's).
As said, maybe it's a completely external reason. Who knows? What I care about is that I noticed it happened following this scenario several times in a very short span. Make what you will out of it.
Just see it as a warning, and anyone is free to do as he or she wishes.

Thanks for your work.. sure this help more than one...starting with me
I had exactly the same problem, going from lvsw to an older official wm5 rom.
All went fine, 100%, reboot and NO GSM.
Recovered with KITL.
@jpvdb Did you install OS only, or the full package?
Gotta ask, when downgrading to WM5 obviously this will flash a new SPL, Radio and OS to the device correct?? Because by the sounds of it people are using the full RUU package and not splitting into seperate nb files)
So firstly if it is 1.09 this WILL NOT be downgraded, and if the radio being flashed is of loader 0107 could this be the reason?
Since Most people now have a radio version with loader 0108 this might be the reason behind it??
If im GROSSLY incorrect please correct me right now (im after some of that olipro charm!!!! )

I've done the downgrade twice without any problem. I am now back to 3-20 version. In case it helps to identify the problem, I have used Hard-SPL every time and I have flashed the different components separately.
I stayed with radio 1.35.00.11 and I only flashed the different OSs (extracting them from original ROMs when needed). No problems at all.
New ROM download!
I have created a lvsw 3-20 that installs ONLY Oli's 1.13 BL and OS with Extra ROM Storage ONLY!
Get it from here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/22731195/lvsw3-20.with.oli1.13.and.os.with.extra.ram.only.rar
** Please note, if you already have Oli's 1.13, choose 1.11 and HARD. **
** Thanks goes to the_passenger for creating the extra-ram version of the OS! Works like a champ on my two devices
@mrvanx: correct, we are talking about full upgrades and downgrades. Your point is pretty interesting by the way, and it seems that mfabre's case goes in the way of this theory. But indeed you should wait for Olipro's expert opinion

....If you installed the entire rom that lvsw posted, it seems like the radio has been modified and it's causing issues. This update will prevent bricking of your phone when you go to change the radio.
However, if you only installed the OS and have NOT installed lvsw's radio, this is a useless upgrade unless you want the increased ROM storage.

I think it is a tad premature to announce that there is a problem with the LVWS ROM sir. It is more than likely that the problems experienced are due to people trying to reflash an old SPL, and a radio with loader 0107 (which CANNOT be downgraded).
I would recommend removing the line from your sig since we have only reports of THREE cases of this happening. We dont want to cause alarm to people who have been running this ROM without any problems.

dutty´s Windows Mobile 6 Premium v2

finally!
screenshot: http://www.thegamebooks.com/download.php?id=151&f=29
release info: http://www.thegamebooks.com/pocket-...y´s-windows-mobile-6-premium-v2-f29-t633.html
if you need support for this catch me at the gamebooks forum.
...and now that this is done i hope i can get koch v2 out
greets: jas,legolas,mousey,olipro,pof basically the whole irc chan.
edit 1hr after release: files have been updated, please redownload
i`m really sorry for those that have already downloaded it, but releasing three roms at once is complicated
edit2: this rom is based on the latest public rom base aka dopod as the build i was working with was very close the switch of the base was easy and obvious.
i also forgot to mention these things:
OS Build: 17741.0.2.1
included IPL: 1.04
included SPL: 1.40.Olipro
included Radio: 1.41.00.10
one thing i want to mention: iirc all builds with an aku smaller than 1 are beta builds, i.e. 18000.1.0.0 would be the final of wm6.
you can see if the build# was not hacked if you dump the rom and check if shellres.dll and shellres.dll.mui are still XIP files.
if there is request for it i could release the rom without IPL/SPL/RADIO at all in the future.
last but not least, just because i dont write it in red and in capital letters doesnt mean it´s less important: please don´t forget to donate so i can motivate myself to work on these free projects. i´m still busy with a job and university, so i have to waste my already non-existant freetime on these projects (koch v2, wm6prem)
edit3: thanks to mr vanx and rabanjr we now have os only upgrades. the links have been posted in the download posts for the release on thegamebooks.com .
besides that, mrvanx also made an upgrade guide for wm6 premium that you can find here
Nice nice "advanced setup" app integrated in the rom!
We miss u in irc
Good work Dutty, advanced setup like too
Good Work Dutty, Liked Your Last ROM And Im Sure I'll Like This One.
Now When The **** Is The Koch Coming Out Haha Take Your Time As I Know It Will Beat The **** Out Of Anything That Came Before It.

Any chance to use the Dopod Test ROM as a base ROM?

Upgrading to Dutty 2.0
I already have SPL 1.40 so when I try to upgrade, which boot loader do I choose? My IPL is 1.00 and I am running Dutty's first release.

For safety reasons, I would upgrade to a Hard SPL like 2.10Olipro. Look in the Hermes > Upgrading forum. Do that first. Then, when you run RUU, select the (I think third) option for 1.2 / 1.3 / 1.5 and newer versions and then run it.
You may also want to upgrade IPL - you do that by selecting the Force SSPL option. But only use that option for flashing IPL - otherwise use the 1.2 / 1.3 /1.4 and newer as indicated above. Good luck.
Ah, what the heck, here are some links. SPL upgrade link IPL upgrade link
Internet Sharing
Anybody tried on this ROM already?
I am having problems with Connect using this ROM.
Never had this problem before - basically it sends me to fix the setting, which are coorect be default
Thank you.
How to upgrade the ROM?
I've downloaded the package v2 but having problem upgrading from the previous dutty.
So, in order to use my Hermes, I flashed to LVSW in order to use the my Hermes. Still trying to find ways how to flashed dutty v2.
kindly help.
Edit:
Managed to flach it using Custom RUU Updater by Olipro. Thanx a million to Olipro
Congratulations.....and thanks
Regards.
Any chance of adding audio enhancement such as EQUALIZER in any of the roms particularly duttys.

On which OS is based this ROM dutty?...btw nice work! Will try your ROM as soon as I will get home from work...
Regards,
Primoz
good good,
gonna try this one soon as i'm back from work
Fantastic ROM with this upgrade.
1. I switched from V1 to V2 albeit some glitch/error during the process.
2. Fast upgrade from 0% to 80% then slow from 81% to 100%. So, For new ROM flasher, don't be afraid and don't do anything stupid by switching off and unplug the cable.
3. If you encounter the error or finding that the RUU updater doesn't match the IPL/SPL, don't worry, grab the Custom RUU updater from Olipro and copy the nbh file into the Custom RUU Updater directory. Force update, I may say. It works and I've tried it already as mentioned in my previous post.
4. If you want to use HTweakC or TweakUI, grab it from the WIKI. As for me, just use the "ADvance Setup" provided in the ROM and you will get the same result.
5. ClearVue PDF is replaced by Adobe LE which imho is better. Other user may have different opinion.
All in all, I like this ROM very much
Million thanx to dutty and others who have contributed towards improving the ROM. Also gratefull to Olipro for the most outstanding custom RUU. OliPro saves my Dopod838Pro (Hermes). If not I can only see the tri-color bootloader screen.

morisa
In Tri-color Boot Mode
Well while updating with spl 1.40 0Lipro my laptop crashed at 89% and now
my 8525 is stuck in tri-color boot mode. Cant't communicate with usb sync.
NOW WHAT?

Can I go back?

I looked around and did not see a clear answer to the question of reverting/flashing back to WM5 if desired after flashing one of these WM6 ROMS.
Does anyone know where I can find the answer?
Thanks in advance.
I too have looked around but haven't asked for fear of being flamed. The gurus think that we should be able to pick up on all the lingo and have a clear understanding of what everything means.
I am looking for a way to go back to a shipped ROM from anything after flashing SPL 1.11 in case I need to warranty exchange my Cingular 8525. I have yet to figure out how to do it.

And the gurus have used plain english too! wow!
...but just to let You know..
once You go black (2.5 ), You will never go back...
hi there
first of all, I am no expert in the ROM related knowledge, but i did go back to WM5 from WM6 recently. The reason I have gone back to WM5 it is because I am suspecting the Chinese viewer (CE-Star) that i used does not work good in any flavor of WM6, it causes frequent lock-ups in WM6 that makes my phone pretty much unusable.
Besides, i don't mind to share my experience for downgrading to WM5, the following is my up and down sequence.
1. upgrade from Dopod WM5 rom to WM6 cooked rom
2. upgrade to SPL 1.40
3. upgrade radio to 1.38.00.11
4. upgrade radio to 1.40.30.00
5. upgrade to SPL 2.10
6. downgrade SPL from 2.10 to 1.40
7. downgrade from WM5 Rom (It is some sort of HTC Standard WM5 Rom that my friend gave me, and my radio has gone back to 1.38.00.10 as the ROM comes with it.
8. upgrade to SPL 2.10
9. upgrade to Radio 1.40.30.00
Also, you may check out mrvanx's guide for downgrading to WM5 here.

actually... i'm on black 2.5 and thinking of going back... too many apps are wiggin out on wm6
I actually just did it. I was running the latest version of HardSPL, flashed to the new ATT ROM, and then created a updater to flash the SPL to the ATT spl.
Wasn't hard, and only took a few minutes. So, as of right now, my phone is running the new ATT ROM, and if I need to warranty it, I'm all set.
in the wiki it mentions..
If your vendor has released you original rom as a shipped upgrade, you just need to flash it.
If your vendor has not released any ROM upgrade yet, you cannot fall back to original ROM easily. You'll have to reconstruct the ROM out of a dumped ROM.

if you only want to read chinese, but not input, there is an alternative to it. look for a cab which is named 'sunglobe.ttf register patch'.
Maybe the easiest way
First thing I would want to do is to Flash the unit to what is known as a "Hard SPL". For some reason it makes all the other flash work go a lot more smoothly. You can get instructions and software for that at:
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php...ask=view&id=40&Itemid=26&limit=1&limitstart=2
Once that is done, and it should take about 5-10 minutes depending upon the speed of your computer and USB connection, you can load whatever OS rom you desire.
You can get a carrier agreeable rom from the Cingular/ATT site:
http://www.htcamerica.net/support/8525/software-downloads.html
Or, and this should work, just link directly to the rob by clicking:
http://www.htcamerica.net/support/d...R_WWE_2.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108_Ship.exe
This should leave you at the latest and greatest of the WM5 packages from Cingular/ATT, and all should be well. And . . . if it hozes . . . which it should not, you should have no warrantee issues since you were trying to flash the upgrade that THEY were providing you. :-D

ROMs from Dopod HK or Singapore are very old ones. The SPL is 1.04. You may not be able to flash backward if you are with HardSPL v7. Also if your radio ROM is newer than 1.27, you may face problem when you flash the original (as it is packed with an old radio rom).
(Please correct me if I am wrong.)

After some readings and I have managed to used dutty's tool to recompiled the Dopod's WM5 English rom from the original Dopod shipped rom.
This rom has OS + Extended Rom ONLY.
No IPL, No SPL, No Radio.
I have tested and it works on my Hermes, and Bootloader and Radio stay as is. Please note your result may vary.
Here's the download link
http://rapidshare.com/files/29500131/WM5_Dopod_1.30.707.4__Huchison_3_AU__OS_ExtRom_only.7z

1. Flash boot loader to Hard-SPL-V7
2. Flash your radio rom to 1.38. or 1.40

How to flash SPL 2.03

Howd'y just got a new Jasjam Spl is 2.03 how do I go about flashing my rom as the RUU doesn't have my SPl in it ??? Basically I want to updat to CRC's latest
Do some more homework first dude, you dont wanna end up with a paperweight......ALWAYS make sure you have flashed HardSPL before you do ANYTHING.
Take a peek here about what to do: Flashing HardSPL. Then flash away with any ROM you please.
Done a lot of lookin but everything I look at doesn't state anything about the 2.03 version all I want to do is U/grade to CRC's Cooked version, is there a how to incl 2.03 ???? I can't find one

seriously....you DO NOT need/want to be using SPL 2.03....you are increasing the risk of bricking your device...flash hardspl 2.10 to your device then just flash CRCs rom using the utility included with it.
Follow the guide i posted earlier to make your device safe to flash then look in CRCs thread for the files you need to run the ROM.
Bongo333, listen to MrVanx.... You asked the question and he's giving you his expert opinion... Listen to his experience cos god knows his guides have helped me out a lot of times...We don't wanna be answering questions tomorrow about how to unbrick your hermes. Its easier if you listen to experience and have a good time upgading your hermes as we won't knowingly steer you wrong..

Do you know how I can get back to SPL 2.03? as I'm having troubles with my Jasjam, and it's not related to various ROMs etc. and I want to take it back to Telstra, but I know that if it has my current SPL version (SPL-1.10Oli) it will be rejected.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I've gone through that, but that only gets you to SPL 1.06, which (I'm not sure really) is an older version which wouldn't be recognised by Telstra as genuine?
Thats fine thats a retail one.
You can go to 1.04
its here as stated on this mrvanx page

Lost in a jungle of HardSPL, Roms and radios.

Hi everybody. I as probally most of u have a Diamond. I've been reading freaqently about Hardspl roms and such since it seems to make your diamond alot faster and better I would like to update/change my rom. As I understand HardSPL is usefull in the way that you can't brick your phone with rom flashing once you have HardSPL flashed. Am I right?
Then there is the choice of hardSPL. I've been looking at OliNex's unsigned 1.40 and OliNex signed 1.38. It seems signed is safer but Unsigned is more open, since you can flash any rom at all. I'm not real sure which one to get since I don't really know what rom seems most suitable for me.
I'm looking for a fast rom, ofcourse, most preferbly a swedish rom but I can survive with english as long as it's possible to get swedish (full and compact) QWERTY. Any suggestions on what rom I should use?
Then Radio I have kind of no idea what that is, can someone explain that real quick?
I guess i'm not the first of making this kindof thread, but please help a guy out. Thanks alot for all hard work so many of you put in to make the diamond more usefull!
Also it would be nice to be able to restore the diamond back to it's original spl and rom for warranty reasons. I have the vers and all written up. I've been looking at swifts rom, and duttys. Are those to recommend and what kind of HardSPL would I have to use to get either of them?
