I followed the trinityguide.info to install the WM6 Dopod rom.
Everything seems fine except when I'm in programs that list file directories (resco file explorer, HTC album with directory selection etc)
In those my network, recycle bin and device name all show up as a series of squares instead of the correct display.
I guess it could be a language issue with some software or the rom, but has anyone else come across this or maybe know if these items are in the registry and could be fixed?
Cheers

My advice: install another WM6 ROM.
The Dopod ROM, although "official" (dopod is a subsiduary of HTC) is not a very good ROM at all.
Have a look at the different feature sets, choose a cooked WM6 ROM and flash - you really will not regret!

Hi,
I upgraded to the official Dopod WM6 ROM. Is it possible to install the Kaiser Home Plugin on it and where can I get is as a standalone app and not part of a whole ROM package (don't want to reflash again and reinstall everything )
yes, it works fine, here you have it.
sorry for the newbie qusetion but when u download these cab files where do i put them on my artemis device. Is it in the windows directory?
you can put the .cab file anywhere you want in your pda,
open "file explorer", locate the .cab file, and "click" it. it will install the software to the default location.
enjoy.
thanx bro, much appreciated
Now to the dialer skin Will the Wizard one work?
Edit: In fact it works like a charm
does this also work on my htc p4350? i have installed the cab and he shows nothing on where the clock and everything else should be. it only looks like the original htc homeplugin was moved down
HELP ME PLEASE
I think this the time for making the latest released roms to be clean of carrier files, so we get more of free memory and also everyone can build his own one with this rom..
so how about taking these roms and extract => dump files => delete carrier files => delete carrier registries => repack the rom files ==> we get a carrierless rom!!
so anyone with me??!
Hi,
I flashed the dopod release and directly after it has booted the first time, while this popup comes up telling one that after 3 sec it is going to install the carrier specific software, customize bla bla and so on, I did a soft reset. This way you stop it from installing. After that you can mount the extended rom, have a look at the cabs in there and manually install what you like.
This works fine and this way you get your carrierfree WM6.

thanks for reply!
what about AT&T rom? it has some carrier files in OS.nb.
also dopod rom has some CABs that are includes in OS.nb so after every hardreset you cant make choice of installing them or not because thay are in the OS.nb files.
and to delete them you have to reCock the rom and delete them!!!
My idea is to make a rom that has no little file of carrier or also a tiny registery!! not to flash it as it is!!
Those carrier files are in the extrom, not in the os.nb, aren't they?
I'll change to my other pc, dump the rom and have a look for carrier files.
Edit: Found 67 exe files in the dopod rom, but I think there are no carrier files in it.
Edit #2: Found 2 dopod files in it, dopod_black.tsk (Theme) and P_Sound_Dopod_WWE_0713.cab (Soundfiles)

Take a look at Pandora's ROM Kitchen (recent thread). It does exactly what you want: take a clean (AT&A) ROM as base and then **** the extra you want yourself...
If you don't want the whole kitchen just take the OS.nb from it (or extract the OS from the official ROM).
Normally operator specific stuff goes in the extrom (that's the real bloat). The primary customisation that starts first is OEM specific (normally) and happens from preconfig.txt in the windows directory. For instance on the official ROM it runs a program to increase the in-call volume, which is very desirable as it means you can hear people when you are in a busy situation.
well, i done littel research about the different files in both Dopod and AT&T roms and made a file list.
you can find some register files in at&t rom *.rgu anyway i think there is also some files are same in name but different in version or build. for example the dialer in dopod support video call while the one in at&t does not support video call but it support PTT.
so here is the file list i hope it help you for knowing the carrier files.

Hmm, as I wrote I installed some CABS manually afterwards directly out of the ext Rom and everything was working fine for me - but maybe in my noob way of doing so - I forgot something very important though everything worked excelllent as long I was testing it.
Nevertheless, I cooked my own rom now with the pandora kitchen - and this seems to work fine as well
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:

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...???
