WM5 to WM6 - HTC Excalibur

guys i recently bought a dash (dopod c720w GSM sim free is what we get here in India). Will i be able to upgrade it from WM5 to 6. also, in my start/menu screen there is no 2d-3d menu switching option (as has been shown in some reviews). how do i get it..?? all comments welcome...
thanx

Yes, with one of the flash's posted here.

This is one of the best guides to upgrading you can find.
D.

I am also from India and have successfully flashed WM6 to my WM5 Dopod c720w. While the phone is sim free, it is still CID locked. You need to get it CID unlocked first by going to www.imei-check.co.uk. Only after its CID unlocked can you install WM6.
The above posted guide is excellent.
This is my post about it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1479203#post1479203
After you upgrade, it will remain on the Windows Mobile screen for quite some time. Don't panic, it just takes a lot of time to configure itself, etc.
After you upgrade to WM6, you will have to change the keyboard settings as the HTC rom's keyboard keys are a bit differen to the Dopod's. It's simple and its posted here:

thanx guys...will try n do it...will come back with the resuts...
by da way abt the 2d-3d menu option..i got the required files from my frend whos got htc s710 (wm6)...but dunno where to install them...the files seem to be workin individually...but when i try to change the settings it doent work...
i ve got the following files: 1) htc3D.dll.409 2) htc3D.exe 3) htc3Dsettings 4) MenuSelect.dll.409...where to paste them...???

There was no 2D/3D menu in my Dopod, neither is it there in the HTC rom. I don't think the files would work off the s710.

the files are working in my phone...in one of the reviews on the net they ve shown this feature in c720w...
there is an .exe file - htc3D which runs but shows all icons as 'messaging'...even the settings work...i mean i can switch from 'windows default' to '3d menu' from the 'htc3Dsettings.exe' file. when i apply 3d and restart the phone the menu systems works in the 3d mode but as mentioned earlier all icons are replaced by 'messaging'. i guess there are 2 '.dll.409' files which have to be pasted into a specific system folder for it show the correct icons in the menu...but i dunno where...???

UK MDA Pro + O2 Rom + MDA/O2 Ext Rom Clean Install (Guide)

Hi
I've spent the past few days geeking with my MDA, using the wealth of info from this forum.
I tried the JasJar rom (too much [email protected]), and ended up with:
- XDA CE Rom (1.13.48 )
- Radio From O2 Rom (1.04.02)
- Minimal Stuff from XDA/MDA ext roms
Goal was to install with the least [email protected] possible.
Step 1 - Flashing The XDA Exec Roms
First flash with O2 XDA Rom, using the info available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32725
To sumarise the above...
- Get XDA rom from:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Shipped ROM/Xda_Exec_LaunchROM_v113139.exe
- Unpack the above using winrar.
- Plonk MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe in the folder where you unpacked the O2 rom (you can get this file from the ftp site, in the file: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar
You only need the one file!
- Disable activesync
- Put MDA in bootloader mode
- Connect to PC via USB, wait for hardware detection
- Run the file MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from the O2 Rom directory on the PC
- Wait ;-)
- Once it restarts, do the usual CE setup, but do not let the extended rom install (simply soft reset at the prompt). If you have gotten past this stage, just hard reset again, and do the soft reset at the correct point!
Step 2 - Installing Progs From Extended Rom
- You'll now have an MDA with the XDA CE and Radio roms installed. It will need the appropriate patches installing from the XDA and MDA extended roms.
- To start, DL both extended roms:
XDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/O2_XDA_Exec_Extended_ROM.zip
MDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/mda_pro_eng_uk_extrom.zip
- For info on what each of these roms contain, look at the following threads:
MDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32839
XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32527
- You dont need all that ****e, I installed the following:
XDA:
Signed_SSD_BTUR_Patch_For_BT_Cannot_Initial.sa.CAB (bluetooth patch)
MDA:
CAB-Customization-TMUK-Universal-01-03-04Aug05.CAB (Adds MMS Server Settings)
CAB-Shorcut-TMOENU-08Aug05.CAB (Adds MMS to outlook + installs some shortcuts which you can remove later)
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB (Enables Video Calling)
Signed_UNI_TMO_Connection_112100.CAB (Adds 'T-Mobile Internet' and 'T-Mobile Internet CS' for GPRS/3G connection)
Stage 3 - Cleanup
- The CAB CAB-Shorcut-TMOENU-08Aug05.CAB also installs a links. If you dont install the cab TMO_UK_UI_0727_signed.CAB then these will be dead llinks. The 'clearvue pdf' reader is a part of this cab (but if you install it, you'll get all the other sh1te it contains also. I was not interested in the PDF reader, so I just trashed the dead links.
- There are two dead links in Programs (they'll be obvous by their icons. I seem to remember them being 'clearvue PDF' and 'EmailWiz' In Explorer, browse to /windows/start menu/programs and trash them.
- Several shortcuts are installed in /windows/startup. Trash the elatepushservice (I dont know what this does, but I dont appear to be missing anything!), sddeamon (this causes the prompt 'view pics on card' when you insert a card containing jpgs from digicam etc). DONT trash 'poutlook' as otherwise the MMS folders wont appear in pocket outlook.
- Install Pocket Mechanic, and use it to ditch bad registy keys and cleanup the notification que.
- Could also install the ext rom unlocker & Total Commander so that you can shove only the cabs you want into the ext rom (or use the space for somet more useful) See Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33638 (Cheers Buzz!)
Registry Hacks
Goto: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Registry and pick some registry hacks to install. I did 'keys on today screen', 'disable start menu animation', 'change pocket ie', 'change fonts', 'change glyph cache' and 'change web hardware button' - to 'about:blank'
Goto:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33515 and make the suggested changes to the cache settings. I found that this did speed stuff up, but since its only cache settings, it will only speed up stuff the second time you try and do it!
Soft Reset
Install Your Progs
I installed
In Internal Mem
Resco Explorer (+regedit +ftp) to replace the MS sh1te
Resco Pic Viewer (to replace the MS App)
Pocket Informant (case the built in stuff is useless)
Resco Audio Recorder
Resco Pocket Radio
TCMP Media player
Net Remote (to control my HTPC)
SPB GPRS Monitor (from MDA CDROM)
Zimmermann Pocket Hosts (essential for VPN use)
Small menu (so I can ruddy well close open apps!)
IPConfig
Pocket Putty (SSH)
On CF Card
Total Commander (to get to the ext rom)
WiFiFoFum (for free email on the move ;-)
Pocket Mechanic
Concluding
Machine is now both fast, stable and not full of bloat-ware. Have 22MB free storage, and 27MB free program memory.
Main Issue left is the time that machine takes to respond to an incomming call when its switched off. On the original MDA rom, I had 4 rings before machine actually rang. Now I have about 2.5.
Time for sleep! I'll read through this tomorrow and correct any errors...
Nigel
One essential point.
According to the publisher, Pocket Mechanic should not be installed to the SD-card, especially if you intend using any of Pocket Mechanic's functions against the SD-card - could lead to corruption.
Personally, I've installed (and run) many of the applications you've listed as "Internal mem" direct to the SD-card without experiencing any problems.
Great bit of collating, does anyone know if the same can be performed on a M5000? Orange have a habit of needing things on there phone to work correctly. Also does anyone know what the following do on the M5000 ExtRom:
CAB-Customization-OrangeUK-Universal-01-05-15Aug05.CAB
CAB-Shortcut-Orange-19Aug05.CAB
cusTSK.exe
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB
Signed_DiscoButton8.sa.CAB
Signed_Orange_SuspendResume.sa.CAB
Signed_Orange_UAString.sa.CAB

Signed_UNI_pIE_View_Set.sa.CAB
UI_Orange_UK_0727.cab

Would be a great help if someone did or could find out as I could then cherry pick what to install. I can take a guess at a few of them but I would like to be sure
Thanks
Hi
Aye, I have noticed oddities with pocket mechanic on SD card, but only when doing SD card benchmark, defrag etc.
I installed to internal mem cause its faster than SD card rather than any other reason, but I found issues with some resco apps running on the SD card also - specifically resco upgrade failed (could not install downloaded upgrade)

I can understand Pocket Mechanic objecting when you defrag/benchmark the medium it itself is running from.
Haven't had any problems with Resco, but haven't tried the update facility.

Hi,
I am gathering the files to perform the upgrade as detailed in this thread, however I can't seem to find JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar.
Is there a better one to use now ? or should I keep searching for JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar ?
In fact most of the links have moved ...

Can you dump your extended rom and post on the ftp site?
I've tried installing the french version, but the UI won't install. Most odd...
I can't find the ROMS
I keep getting :
File not found
You tried to access the address ftp://[email protected]/Universal/Extended ROMs/, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.
Can any one point me in the right direction ?
I have a T Mobile (UK) MDA PRO, the wifi connection lasts for about 3 seconds, then it keeps trying, but failing.
These are the ROMs I'm after :
XDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/O2_XDA_Exec_Extended_ROM.zip
MDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/mda_pro_eng_uk_extrom.zip
Thanks
Hi
Looks like someone has trashed the FTP site (again) all those roms have dissapeared. Hopefully they'll get restored... Did a backup exist??!
I'll search my laptop see if I have any of the missing roms
Nigel
Yup the FTP's missing practically every file...
I need the NO ID upgrade launcher file to flash my MDA Pro to XDA Exec please.
If anyone can upload it or send it me accross msn it'd be much appreciated

Make your X01HT a WM6 Device (for Gaijins)

You just got your X01HT and would like to use the latest WM6 ROM in English with your Softbank account ?
Here is a quick guide, gathering information that has been exchanged and spread accross many threads on this forum (Searches can be fastidious, I know that well...)
I have been reading this forum a lot, keeping on asking questions to everybody, so it's time I contribute a bit to help by describing step by step how I switched my Japanese WM5 Softbank X01HT to a WM6 English device
This post is target at Gaijins who want an English WM6, but still want to be able to use Japanese with it. For a Japanese MUI or ROM, I guess Asukal will probably publish something
***EDIT: for a 100% Japanese ROM, you can now have it here: http://buzzdev.net/index.php?option...um_query=read,40,30486,30597,page=2#msg-30597 ***
I was first willing to cook a ROM including all these, in order to spare some space on my HERMES. I had already cooked an "intermediary" one when Tadzio issued his method to make a "shrinked" OS ROM that would allow you to use the spare space from the ROM
Since this, no point in adding all these mods in my ROM
First: making flashing safe
Download Hard-SPL-V2 from the great Olipro to avoid bricking your device. Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Install it
Then, get your ROM.
Download the_passenger ROM shrink version of LVSW 20070320 ROM (More space available) and install it (Read threads about flashing ROMs if you are not familiar with that...)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=8YJATBPG
Install the Softbank AP Settings for your internet connection. You really WANT that. Big thanks to itamae without whom we'd be stuck on first of April this year... (Or I'd still be using WM5)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298031
Now you need a Registry editor
I am used to PHM Regedit. You can find it there for free:
http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/
To map properly your Softbank Keyboard, do the following registry modifications:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty] "Layout"= 30411 (Hexadecimal base)
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload] "Default"= e0010411
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1] "Default"= e0010411
More details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286787&highlight=keyboard+x01HT
To allow the video Call key to appear on your phone keypad, modify the registry as follows:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin] Enabled = 1
Optional: getting rid of useless trayapp (It looks nice... but it Slows down the Hermes and you can replace it with better apps)
Delete TrayApp key from [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
Fix the disappearing micro SD (Doesnt really work for mine... But could work for yours...)
[HKLM\System\StorageManager]"PNPUnloadDelay" = dword:8196 (Decimal base)
[HKLM\System\StorageManager]"PNPWaitIODelay" = dword:8196 (Decimal base)
More details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294324
Now time to have your Hermes speak Japanese
Japanese fonts
Use the excellent work from Asukal, that you can find here:
http://www.asukal.jp/WM5/LetsJapanNo5.zip
I did have a problem with it: once I executed it, I could not sync with my Exchange server (Quite a pain for my push email account...)
Asukal found the solution: edit the registry, and change
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Mobem\CE-Star] "MyNLS" = "\windows\wince.nls"
Japanese input
Not using for myself, but these work perfectly (I tried):
http://www.asukal.jp/WM5/BagojsINPUT.zip
*** EDIT
If you prefer a Japanese input without the annoying "Floating bar", ie just the same input way as your original WM5 Softbank ROM, just downlaod and install the "MS IME31 J" link from Asukal's page:
http://hn801.hkes.com/Data/SIP/IME_31J_QVGA_F.zip
*** /EDIT
Silent mode switch
You're going to be missing the Softbank unique way of switching to silent mode (Only available in Softbank ROM)
The way to go around this is by using Vibra
Details available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=277811&highlight=vibra
Download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=31657&d=1164714506
MMS
Softbank's MMS System is a pain because it's incompatible with "classic" MMS systems...
You can download Softbank's software... But... it's slow, big, bulky, ugly, etc... If you dont mind missing the emoticons, you should go for MMSLite
Regedit, Look for Arcsoft. Delete all references to Arcsoft (Sometimes need to be done in several times, some entries being in use if you have by mistake launched MMS Composer once since your flash of the OS...)
If you dont do these eletions, MMSLite will actually not install...
Downlaod and install MMSLite
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=33982&d=1170599400
It should work perfectly !
I you have enough courage (And ONLY after having installed Hard-SPL 1.11 !!!), you can try flashing your radio
You dont have to... but the latest 1.38 does seem to grant an improved battery life
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297925
Now you're done, you have a great phone with a faster OS, more storage space, improved battery life, that works perfectly with Softbank AP, can use Softbank proprietary MMS system, and can read and write Japanese
After, there are lots of other things you can do, like mounting your Extended ROM to gain extra space, Unlock the SIM, etc, etc... But it is not the purpose of this thread. Have fun reading the forum, it is well documented in other threads
Have fun !!

just read yourpost today...im at work and i cant wait to go home and follow each of these steps.
man thanks...this is what some of us gaijins are looking for the past few weeks.
btw,
you mentioned sim unlocking etc...etc...
you mean to say, sim unlocking is done after the wm6 flash? why would some do that before the flash?
Hello,
The only problem when upgrading is the Japanese input. I used sometimes (so I need it), but I I install Japanese input package you told in your post the I have a really annoying floating bat anywhere, and it's really unnoying.
There is no way to have same kind of input in enlish ROM?

Try Asukal's IME package (see bottom of page):
http://asukal.net/blog/?cat=8&paged=3
... it includes the input method from WM5 (or one extremely similar). I'm using it with WM6 Black Edition 1.2 and have had no problems with input so far.
As for other Japanese/Japan-conversion-related issues:
- I found that when the Japanese wince.nls file is loaded, .NET CF programs crash with a 'PlatformNotSupportedException' error.
- With MMSLite installed, I can receive MMS, but not send.

Really? I don't get a floating bar.
Did you try it on a clean installation of WM6, or did you install it after installing the Bagojs IME? Maybe some settings in the registry are causing the bar to appear.
Also, did you set your locale to Japanese in "Control Panel->System->Regional Settings"?

You shouldn't need to install both BagojsIME and Asukal's IME package, just Asukal's. BagojsIME provides an older version of the MS IME.
Use you own phone with SB
You can pick a ZERO Yen phone to do a new contract with SB. Then change the sime card to your onw phone. Suppose you have a sim-unlock phone.

I didnt have to install anything to get the Manner mode working. I think this is implemented in WMXL. But when i set the phone skin security to 1
my phone pad disappears, turns white. Renders unusable. The only fix for me is to set it back to 0.
This might be due to the carrier setting, it happens immediately after running SB external rom carrier info.
Any ideas?

Just to be very clear the ROM is not mine, it's LVSW's and shrinked by the_passenger
I think there are a few other links where the_passenger has uploaded it:

Not able to use Home plugin

Hi all,
I've installed HTC Customizer 0.8b (from this topic -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319308)on my Artemis. I'm running the official Dutch WM6-rom from HTC. After installation, the customizer downloaded and installed the home plugin by itself. So far no problems occurred.
I have a problem however with setting up the home-plugin (not the customizer). I can't put any programs in the launcher-tab, I can't put contacts in the favorite contact-tab, and the weather-tab is completely empty...
I've asked in the forum of pocketemu.com, the creator of the customizer, but i didn't get a response.
Has anybody had this problem before? Does anyone have a qlue about how to go about this?
Did you have the HTC Home on your ROM before you installed the Home Customizer? If not, that's your problem.
"INSTALLATION
YOU MUST HAVE THE HTC HOME PLUGIN INSTALLED TO USE THIS PROGRAM."
Same problem

I have the same problem. The clock is working fine, the rest doesnt.
Specs:
- Official NL T-Mobile WM6 Rom
- HTC Home plugin installed
- HTC Home Customizer v1.0b5 installed
I have tried to get it to work after a hard reset, no other appz installed. No success. Also tried to get it to work with the previous versions of the HTC home plugin (every time on a clean phone), including the previous version of the home customizer (& -lite).
Can someone help us?
Thanks in advance.
The problem can be different mui file.
HTCHome and HHCustomizer generally use 409 mui (stay for WWE language), and they can't work on dutch rom.
Try to rename it (only number with your country number)

correct, the home is language sensible...
Thanks
Thanks guys, I'll give it a try when I get home.
Worked partially
Hey all,
- Disabled the today plugin, soft reset
- Renamed the HTC Home MUI files from 0409 to 0413 (=> my country number => the Netherlands) with Total Commander (cecmd)
- Give a soft reset, enabled Home plugin
- Home plugin was able to download weather through GPRS
- other tabs are working also
-No luck downloading new weatherspecs by WiFi.
(I have a good WiFi connection, the HHC v1.0b5 connects perfectly to the internet)
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this last issue?
Thanks for the support till this far
Problem solved
When I got home and connect to my own WiFi, there was no problem anymore getting the last weatherinfo. Problem is solved now
Happy for you.
bye

Tmobile Trigger Mail
Ricky,
First, thank you, Wish I had your skills. Do you think there is anyway you could work the Tmobile Email triggers in to a ROM? I have tried to make things work but just can't figure it out. I know the registry settings should be as follows;
"@ = (Default) key"
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E85FD9C3-4F5E-4c75-8C21-0F850274DEF5}
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E85FD9C3-4F5E-4c75-8C21-0F850274DEF5}\InProcServer32
@="TmMapirule.dll"
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\TMO
"Prefix"="TMO"
"Keep"=dword:00000001
"Order"=dword:0000000a
"Index"=dword:00000000
"Context"=dword:00000000
"DLL"="\windows\InBoxDriverSrv.dll"
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\SMS\Rules
"{E85FD9C3-4F5E-4c75-8C21-0F850274DEF5}"=dword:00000001
I have all of the WM5 files and can load them up some where.

HI, Just flashed .24 and when setting up MMS there isn't a max size selection > 100K. This should allow up to 300K in size. What's up?

This issue has been addressed in various posts throughout the forum. Next time just try to use the search feature and you may find the answer to what you seek. Anywho, here are the instructions to increase your MMS sending size limit...
1) Using a registry editor (such as Resco Registry, Total Commander) you'll need to edit a couple of registry values.
2) Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (HKLM)\SOFTWARE\ArcSoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\MMSCSetting\T-Mo MMS (whatever you've named your MMS GPRS setting)
3) Change "WAP1SendDefaultSize" from '102400' to '307200'. Also, change "WAP2SendDefaultSize" from '102400' to '307200'. After making these changes--reboot the phone.
4) Your MMS messages should now allow you to increase your sending size to 300K.
Thanks!!!

Detailed instructions on how to upgrade to 6.1
Hello everyone,
Im trying to update to 6.1 using RUU_Excalibur_WM61_Kavana_Rickys_v24_Opera
I have read the FAQ's that rickywatt posted , but I am still confused and im not sure about the steps that follow after unlocking the Dash. I have downloaded SDA application unlock and SurrealNetworksAppUnlock.cab and of course Ricky's RUU_Excalibur_WM61_Kavana_Rickys_v24_Opera
According to the FAQ that rickywatt has
i did the following:
"... install SurrealNetworksAppUnlock.cab to your phone then extract
SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe from SDA_ApplicationUnlock.zip then
connect usb from computer to your phone wait for ActiveSync to connect once
connected run SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe then click remove lock then reboot phone ..."
I have no idea what to do after that
the v24 (RUU_Excalibur_WM61_Kavana_Rickys_v24_Opera includes RUU_signed.nbh
ROMUpdateUtility.exe
Rapitool.exe
EnterBootloader.exe and Auto.Bat
Can someone help, as to tell me what exactly i should do now?
I did searched, I went on you tube and nothing.
Thanks.

Double-Click on the auto.bat file. Follow the instructions in the Prompt (black) box, to the T.

What he really means is keep hitting your space bar. The grammar in that auto.bat file is confusing at first -- I thought I had to follow the instructions and manually run the programs the .bat file was talking about. No, instead the only action you really have to take (other than connecting your phone) is hitting the center button once to get to the white screen; the rest just happens with you pressing any key to keep the batch file going.
Hey folks,
Not that I am not please with 6.1, but how can I roll back to version 6.0?
Anyone know how/if its possible to roll back?

Yes... Just flash the 6.0 ROM back to your phone. If you're with T-Mobile, it can be found on the T-Mobile site.
Thanks Rip. Good to know.
