Hi,
I am just wondering what the benefit of using Windows Update with a cooked rom is. Either I do not understand what WU on these devices is really good for, or the chance of seeing a new rom there is zero.
Can someone enlighten me on this?
TG.
Yeah, same question.
I understand Error Reporting tool, but WU?

Hello everyone -
Newbie here at this stuff, and I was wondering if I can download the Universal ROM AKU3.5 and install it on my Verizon XV6700 phone?
Thanks.
P.S: Universal means it's for everyone? or is it another brand like HTC, Apache, etc.

Universal is a BRAND, just as Apache is a BRAND.
I suggest you read the Apache Wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Apache
Not much info on there right now, but it will get you started. Also, do a forum search for the Apache or the XV6700 to find out if other owners are successfully able to flash to a new ROM and the steps they took to do it.
Good Luck!!
Thanks for the reply, one question though, you mentioned about new ROM for XV6700 over Apache forum, and I'm assuming u mean the Sprint AKU2.2 ROM right? If so I already got it flashed in my Verizon XV6700 and working now. What i'm interested in is the AKU3.x ROM. Is it possible at this moment?
Thanks.
That's a question you'll need to answer yourself from reading the thread that has the ROM you want to flash to. Each ROM has it's own prerequisites for a successful upgrade, so I wouldn't even want to presume to know whether you can or can't.
Here's the link to Molski's AKU3.2 ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286988
However, it's in the Wizard upgrade section, so you might not be able to use it on your Apache. The only way to know for sure is to read the ENTIRE thread to see if you could use it on your device.
If so, FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY!!
If it's a Verizon phone, it is not GSM based, therefore it is TOTALLY different from the Wizard, and most other HTC devices.
If you can't do it yourself, learn. If you can't learn, wait for someone else to do it, and find out from them.
Now go have fun!
Hey guys, I ran into this file at one of the sites I frequent. I was told it was the official WM6 ROM. He never specified for what device though. Now I'm pretty new at this so I have no idea how to tell if it is or not, but here's the link:

I performed my 1st upgrade ever last night thanks to the help here. I now have WM6 Black running great on my TyTN. Let me know how that ROM goes. Thanks
DO NOT flash this until the gurus have had a chance to take a look.

oh where's the fun in that? we need another "OMG I DOWNLOADED SOME RANDOM ROM FROM SOMEONE I DON'T KNOW AND MY PHONE EXPLODED!" thread. ;-)
Looks like a HTC Universal rom to me. It also contains the Country_ID_Error folder and the Empty_Extended_Rom folder so it already passed through here at some point ...
people on here have mentioned that its been done, and claim there is a link somewhere in this forum. I have searched extensively and cannot find it. can anyone help me?
It`s impossible,because you cannot dump windows mobile 2003-this OS built on Windows CE 4.2,and all devices has an unique Operation System
im sorry, i dont understand your post, are you saying it is possible, or it is not possible?

Hello people,
How are ya? sorry for the english, hope you can read it good.
I just wanted more info about the CID unlocking tools availible on the internet today......
I read like two days in this LARGE! forum to search for tools to unlock CID for G4. I saw already really IMPRESSIVE! things managed by some people, I just can't explain how great these people are that can make programs like flash Rom without having it Cid-Unlocked!
But......what i find strange: Is it really so difficult to get a G4 Cid-Unlocked? Because the G3 has no problems doing this, and also can Imei Check do it without a problem. What are they doing different that this does work? and is it not possible to make a similar program like that without the Imei check? (I don't mean to copy this program from them!)
I just ask this because i really want to know, I'm not a noob in software and hardware, but in PDA/MDA/pocket PC or whatever I am!
I hope someone can take the time for me to explain this?
Thanks very veru much in advance.......

It would be helpful to know what device you have, because the DiskOnChip G3 and G4 are used in a variety of devices (eg. prophet, wizard, universal..).

thanks for your reply!
I have a T-mobile MDA Vario G4 so I think its a Wizard. with Windows Mobile 5.
It's CID-Locked and want to put WM6 on it.
Greetings....

You can install WM6 by using this tool.
It is a patched SPL that only runs in the memory of your wizard, and which gives you a temporary superCID.

I can't really find much discussion on this, or any other boards for this.
Anyone think WM6.1 will be coming to the BJII or if it's hackable to work on it?
I have no idea how to go about it, so all I can do is request it....

dump the rom ... find a way to do bootloader mode .... maybe somebody can help porting it
if u hv time & willing to try, see thread on
how to dump rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=238945&highlight=dump+rom+tool
bootloader ---> cant help on that

Take a look over at http://www.txcaesar.net
We have WM6.1 working on the BJ1, I have no BJII device to test with however
Also, I have posted there in the forum an itsutils script to automate dumping of the ROM, and also a copy of the dumped ROM
txcaesar? Aren't you the ones that were charging for the MPx200 upgrade that I had for free at mpxupgrade? Or were you the ones that helped me get it up and offer it for free?
Anyway, thanks for the link. Looks like the BJII has been dumped and uploaded to your site. I have no idea how to progress from there, but if no one does it before easter /summer break, guess I may give it a try then...
Charging for a ROM upgrade? I find the notion amusing.. (I would never do that)
I could cook up a BJII ROM, but i have no device to test with, and so far no one else is crazy enough to risk bricking their device

I'm willing to try if you want to create a ROM for the BJII
does flashing a rom unlock the device as well ?
i had got a at&t blackjack2 and i looking at unlocking it.
any help
typically the phone must be unlocked before cooked ROM could be flashed.
To my knowledge there isn't a free option available to unlock the i617 yet.
Hey, guys, has anything happened with this? I too would love to upgrade. Based on prior experience, AT&T won't be releasing an official upgrade for another 4-6 months.
Someone needs to give MOHBY a hand extracting the ROM from his i617(thread below) and we will all be happy campers.
