Is there a WM6.1 Rom for Axim X51 (not the X51V)?
No, there is not even a WM6 rom, much less a WM6.1 rom available for the X51. You are certainly welcome to make one though.
All,
See the thread from Lenny's forum that I'm linking now:
http://forum.lennysh.com/showthread.php?t=200
I'll be making an X51 mid/low port of the WM6.1 rom, but need an X51 to test it on. I already own an X51v, so I'm hoping that you fine folks out there will donate some money (or even an old X51 mid/low) to the cause, there's a link to donate on the other forum's post, but here it is again:
Donate to the cause here!!!
As I said, this is purely so I can help you out, by porting the rom to your model of axim!

Im wondering if its possible to create a rom for an x50 using WM6. Im new to this crowd but i dont have a problem getting my hands dirty. I have some experiance creating and hacking non WM phones so i figure i can probably keep myself from drownding.
I know almost all of the new PPC's and Smartphones are VGA, does WM6 only run on VGA phones? also it seems the only roms out there for WM6 are for VGA devices, is that the reason?. Im also wondering how hard it would be to modify an existing WM6 rom for the x50v so that it would work with the x50(if thats possible).
my PPC is 520mhz with 128mb ram QVGA
I would greatly appreciate some help/nudge in the right direction.
Kind of duplicate thread of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=323523
The process is probably the same as building a rom for a x50v, which is easier than doing it for an x51v as there is an issue for creating/modifying xip. However You can check if you can directly re-use x50v xip.
KINDA...helps
The thread helped alittle, pointed me to the tools. However, i still dont know if its possible and i dont want to try it and have the result of a bricked PDA.
I don't see why it would not be possible. You need to extract your nb0 to start, since you have it, you can always recover from a corrupted rom. I had already extract file from a x51 rom with success using those tools. I don't have any x50, x51 device to try it. But I already modified several x51v rom using those tools to be able to fix the CF bug on Football A17 rom.

Hi
Well...
I tried to start up looking into the differences in the roms but i can't even open them
Ill try some more but i think it's just waist of time. U really need a good coder like football to do this...
Let's hope someone can do the magic for x50/x51 like he did with the v editions
By the way, isn't there a possibility to port a x51v to a x51 rom ?
Hi, there are any WM6 rom can upgrade the X51 (not X51V)
Many Thanks!
No you can't wm6 upgrade only for x51v.
it so sad for X51 user....
btw Thank you for your reply~
x51 not worth for a wm6 rom update?
Dear Football, I follow your posts eagerly on your efforts for x51v, and I really appreciate them, and hopefully looking forward to seeing a rom for x51, but is it not worth your efforts, should I understand that from your post here? Thanks.
Hope have any one can develop the X51 upgrade to WM6 rom~
What happens if one tries to use the A03 WM6 ROM on a regular X51? Has anyone tried using any of Football's ROM's on a regular X51?
x51v ROM doesn't work for x51!!!
Hi, I tried flashing my x51 with the x51v ROM and it got bricked!!! Then I desparately tried for an SD bootloader image for my axim and after a few days time, a dear member, Larik, helped me by uploading both .nb0 file and the image file, so I got back my axim. Then, my word is that, never try it!
Ouch! Well, thanks for letting me know - at least you got it up again

I' ve tried the same, but I can't get it work again.
Can you please tell how to put back wm5??
How to boot wm5 to x51!!!
Dear Pedro Miguel,
I uploaded the valuable explanation from LArik to rapidshare, and you can read and save your axim. Bye.

Just wondering why no one is workng on a version for the other axim x51 pda's, such as the 520mhz version. It would be nice if someone would do that.
WHY NO EFFORT for X51 wm6???
I completely agree with emk8314, why doesn't anybody create a ROM for x51? There are many able people here to make that ROM, and I am sure many people expecting that. So , please somebody do that!!!
I don't know about you, but I'm working on a WM5 aku 3.5 A03 rom for X50(mid) right now (almost finished, but need testers). I will try to work on a WM6 rom for X50(mid) after I am done with the first rom. As for your statement on someone making a WM6 rom for X51, why don't you make the rom yourself? After all, all the tools you need can be found here.
Not to sound like too much of a noob, but is it difficult to make your own version of wm6?
also, where are these tools you're talking about? to make my own?

This thread is for the Axim X51v Only.
Still working on getting some help on the X50v.
There will probably be a selection of OEMs released with it that is made for the Apache. But it has a lot of OEMs in it that is compatible with the Axim. Mainly, I will need a list of those that do not work with the Axim. Cause I have not had the time to test them all. I will try to remove the one's that I know are not compatible with the Axim. To limit the testing of those already tested to not work.
Bump! Bump!
yes please!
i am really looking forward to this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wow wow wow wow
thanks
Me too I want test!!
Please, before you become a beta tester....please have some prior experience with a kitchen...
Hey Ya'll, whats cookin' (pardon the pun
I can't wait to see the finished product!
Good luck with the development.
I'd like to have the kitchet for traslate the WM6 ROM in italian and for modify my personal ROM
it's great to see a kitchen been worked on for the axim pity i broke my x51v last week but still have my x50v hope to to see a kitchen for it someday keep up the great work
AT&T 8525 Schaps rom 4.00
Dell Axim X50v Maglite A02
No comments about "cocking" this ROM If anyone's seen the post of course...
I'd join, but I own an X50v, but I really need to see the kitchen for that anyway as I'm having Wifi issues...

Let´s cook
I can´t wait to cook my Axim!!!
I joined as I see you still missing one, I can test your kitchen on a French Rom, I already built 2 FR, Football based Rom, see here.
One is core, the other is private and include trueVga mode.

Yes, trying to get all the updates applied so that they are already in there when you cook everytime. But it's hard to add them all, since I do not know what they all are, and where they are that I can download so I can apply them to the base files. Any help? SP1 had some additional programs in it that I already had in kitchen. So I can't use all of that. And I had already had the IE Scroll Fix. Please anybody, post all of the known fixes to A03, and a link to the files, or post where I can get them. If I can get all them applied, then it will not be long at all before release. Probably gonna make testing public since none of the Beta Testers have yet to join the chatroom I set up on an IRC server. Well, only one so far, and I was away at the time....lol....
The official channel I set up for this is on server: irc.freenode.net
Channel name is: #AximX51v
The IRC client I use is mIRC, http://www.mirc.com. I try to stay on there, although I may be at work. So, join, and we'll see!
Still needing list of updates...with links....
WM6 A03 RTM fixes
The only fixes that I know about are the ones posted in the

CAB file with fixes, same thread, page 56, scroll down to post #554:

Other than those files I don't have any other information

news? when can you release this kitchen?
Hi guys, first i would like to say thanks to MagLite for even making it possible to run WM6 on the x50v. We really appreciate the time you put in this project!
As people are aware, MagLite doesnt own a x50v anymore, so i was thinking that maybe we can get donations towards him buying one so that he can continue to make his roms better.
I thank everyone for reading my post, and hope that if you run his roms or want it to be more stable, that you would kindly donate to him. As all he needs is a x50v and the project will run again, thxs, shawn
p.s. if you want to donate to his project, pls pm him.
Yes. If you need new rom for x50v, send one device to me and i cook update =)

Not to stear anybody away from this, but I have made a WM6.1 ROM for the X50v. It is still a very early release. It can be found here.
Hello.
I am new on the forum and I am French. I heard a lot about you so I come to join has you.
I have a problem with my DELL AXIM X50 (520 Mhz, 64 RAM, 128 ROM). I have many article on WM6 for X50V but for mine...
So, I would like to know if it is possible to instal a ROM WM6 for my X50 or possibly if it is not possible, the upgrader with a ROM more successful than the 2003.
Thank you in advance.
Cordially.
Anybody to help me?
Give me a rom dump of a X50(mid) running the WM5 A02 rom, and I will make a WM6 rom.

hey steven, can you provide some links and instructions on how to do a rom dump?
I, myself can't give good instructions on doing a rom dump but the download threads can. You can use the Grab_it program to dump the rom, fount at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=238945. The instructions are on the download page too. If those instructions don't work try the ones from aximsite found at http://www.mobilitysite.com/boards/x50-x51-forums/112267-tutorial-how-create-your-own-flash-images-your-axim.html. Try the 128mb version first with both instructions (2nd set of instructions only if the first one doesn't work). If you do have to you use the aximsite instructions, only follow the steps that pertain to the rom dump. If it gives you errors both times, use the 1st set of instructions again and check the sd card for a dump file. When you get the dump, upload it somewhere on the internet and give me the link. This is open to anyone with an X50(mid first) running the WM5 A02 rom image. Just do a hard reset first and then do the dump (dumping the rom will not hurt your axim). If you have any questions, feel free to post back.
Axim X50(mid) ROM
I have an Axim X50(mid) with WM5 A02 rom on it now. I will have the opportunity in a week or two to hard reset it and dump the stock ROM. I have just downloaded the grab-it 128MB version. If I get a good dump, how can I get it to you? If I get it to you can you roll a WM6 or better WM6.1 ROM for the X50(mid)? I am willing to use my device as a test platform (I have bricked it and unbricked it twice so development doesn't scare me).
Thank you very much for your help! But I do not understand everything that it is necessary to make. I am French and I have difficulty in understanding everything.
Tell ya what, once I get a working WM6 rom in English, I will get in contact with Makuu (he does have lots of experience with french roms) to help me make a french version for X50(mid).
OK!
It is great! Thank you for the good new
I looks forward.
Could you send to me a private e-mail when you will have news?
Thank you in advance.
Cordially.
