no, like the 210, 211, 212, 213 or 214...

No such beast exists. You are stuck with 6.0 until someone hacks it. But what is wrong with the version you have?

Not exactly wrong. But the existing ROM is simply very BUGGY. It can´t compare to the cooked one I´d installed on my past Loox C550 device. There´d be no end to whatever goes wrong with Wi-fi and Bluetooth, CF card support, power management , general instability of the system, various software incommatiblity issues etc. But so far we have to live with it.

Yup, my 211 is now on the shelf and waiting for an update. My hx4705 is now back in service with Kozura's WM6.1 v5 ROM. I have lost more data with the 211 than ALL the IPAQ's I have used over the years...combined. It is a sad day when the 'development ROM's - not to be used for daily operation' are more stable than the ROM in this new device!
So, I hear that the 21x series bootloader is difficult. Does anyone have details of what the roadblocks are?

Hi,
a friend has an ipaq 214 and has difficulties with the original rom (CF-GPS, Wlan).
Therefore I'm also interested in a 6.1 ROM.
I'll call HP on monday to get support - maybe I should ask them how to get into the bootloader mode (if there is any)?

Is there anyone who could really make WM6.1 rom for 214?
That would really be something...

i'm looking for english rom for hp 214. Can someone upload it?

Looks like someone has figured out how to put their Ipaq 214 into bootloader mode. Their page says to hold down the Calendar & Windows keys and then soft-reset.

Any luck with a 6.1 rom for ipaq 2xx yet?

I have the English ipaq 211 version and would really like to try 6.1 to see if it fixes any of the 6.0 instability issues.
Here's the link again the other poster referred to for getting into bootloader mode on the ipaq:

The good news is I have got the English and Chinese ROM file.
The bad news is :when I try to write the ROM with pdocwrite tools, it failed, the pdocwrite tools said "media protected". So I can't flash the rom file to the machine now.
So we need the solution of get the ipaq to the bootloader mode or the way to update with sd card.
Can someone help ?

Samsung i900 Omnia rom backup help

Hi to all the Samsung experts, I currently have a Samsung i900 and am looking for a way to extract my rom and create a flashable format. I have used pdocread to extract 3 .raw files but am not sure how to proceed from here. Can anyone advise? Thanks.

Hoping that the i780 istruction can be used for the omnia, the relevant posts are here..

Thanks, I have read those threads, problem is you apparently need a flashable .bin to start with which in this case I do not so am looking for a way to use the .raw files only. Do you know if that is possible?

No you don't need the bins, you can start from the raw files.
Just look at the famusc kitchen and read the included instructions.

Ok here is a way to dump the nb file and then dump its contents.I have already done that, including xip
Use itsutils and following command in dos window :
psdread -1 0 0xDISKSIZE os.nb
Then use imgfs tools or tazio tools to dump, and further processing.
We need now how to flash back the custom os.nb to omnia
still searching for sd card flashing combinations

@The Solutor: I have read the famusc kitchen docs and it explicity states you need an existing .bin PDA rom. However there are a few commands in there that may be worth checking out.
@hdubli: I will try the command you suggested later today. What are the tazio tools? And dont Samsung phones use .bin files to flash rather than .nb?

You don't need the bin.
Here step by step:
- Downlad and install the kitchen
- Copy Part02.raw into the kitchen folder
- Open cmd and type: ImgfsToDump Part02.raw (This will create dump folder)
- Execute RecreateBin.exe
You got your bin file!!!!

Do you mean RecreateBin.bat? There is no RecreateBin.exe and looking at the contents of the .bat file I dont think it will work as it makes reference to i780 files which I dont have and most likely wont work with the Omnia.
imgfsfromdump imgfs_raw_data.bin new_imgfs.bin
del imgfs_raw_data.bin
ren new_imgfs.bin imgfs_raw_data.bin
make_imgfs i780.nb0.payload.body -nosplit
merge i780.nb0.payload.header i780.nb0.payload.body i780.nb0.payload
nbmerge -data 2048 -extra 8 i780.nb0 -conservative

yes it is the .bat file sorry.
I780 should just be name of the files that you get at the end...
I can't say if it works you just have to give it a try...
But that would be the way we do it with our i780 roms...
Try and report. You should get a i780.bin file.... otherwise it should stop with an error.

where can i find an HTC WWE SHIP rom?

i've been looking all over, and i cant find it...only the Dopod rom which doesnt work with the hebrew language support...
can anyone point me to where i can get the original HTC SHIP WWE rom?
thanks!

Someone with a HTC Cavalier has to dump their ROM using the tools in this forum and post the dumped RAW files.
Code:
You will need itsutils (http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html) from itsme:

i think, that you can use very good ookba's ROM with english interface and edit et9 input for your language, there are many how-to's on this forum and internet, even some cabs with many languages preinstalled

There's no WWE HTC ROM for Cavalier on that site. As it was mentioned to get that ROM it has to be dumped first.
Cheers

Here I'll upload all Cavalier ROMs I find in web

Mio P360&P560 ROM CEimage [BETA Official] / Boot Menu / [HOW TO] dump a ROM, by ansar

Mio P360&P560 ROM CEimage [BETA Official] / Boot Menu / [HOW TO] dump a ROM, by ansar
Hi,
Update on 3/10/2010 10:35 AM:
The following are the findings for the ROM image upgrade procedure, after an extensive testing:
1. The MS_IPL image has been identified.
2. It is not yet possible to dump the boot loader image due to the MS_IPL image placing on almost the same memory location.
3. Due to the above we cannot yet define the accepted by the boot loader ROM CE image layout.
4. The one way is to assume a layout and test it to see if it is accepted.
5. This way is completely safe.
6. It was identified the internal (final) layout of the ROM CE image by direct read access to the chip.
7. The result of this reading was 100% error free that denotes the possibility of error free writing directly to the chip.
8. This last writing (directly on the chip) it is not yet tested due to the possibility to damage the device.
9. The internal (final) ROM CE image noted at (6.) above is already in our hands but not tested yet.
10. This is the second way to the ROM upgrade procedure, but we do not know if it is safe as that of reading the chip.
Development will be continued on both ways, in order for the ROM upgrade to be finalized.
Thanks to pavlac and mumux for their extensive help and testing.
A. Screens of the official version
Pending ...
B. Download Links
Pending ...
C. Instructions to successfully flash the rom image
1. Make sure that P560 can be connected and synchronized with your PC / Laptop.
2. Use the procedure bellow to enter the boot loader menu.
3. Form the Uboot Menu select 0=WINCE Upgrade and press right key.
4. From WINCE Upgrade menu select 3=WINCE by USB and press right key.
5. From your PC run dnw5.0e.exe program.
6. Select USB port>Status and see if the USB info screen is displayed.
7. Select USB port>Transmit and open the provided file.
8. Wait for the process to finish, disconnect and slide bottom switch to OFF.
9. Wait one minute and slide bottom switch to ON in order to perform a hard reset.
End of Update
IMPORTANT UPDATE on 10/9/2010 16:35 PM:
Before issuing the relevant official ROMs derived from the partxx.raw files
it is very important for each distribution i.e. WWE, FRE, ELL etc to have the checksum of each ROM.
In order to achieve this, the owner of a specific build should perform as follows:
************************************************** **************
A. Evaluating the checksum:
1. Enter to uboot loader main menu as described bellow after this update.
2. On the main menu by pressing down the jostick navigate to [4=Memory Tools] and select it by pressing-in the joystick.
3. On the Memory Tools menu by pressing-in the joystick select [0=ROM CheckSUM], get it and write it on a media.
4. Select [2=Exit] in order to exit the Memory Tools and return to main menu.
************************************************** **************
B. Evaluating CPLD_32 and CPLD_64 user code:
5. On the main menu by pressing down the jostick navigate to [5=Other Tools] and select it by pressing-in the joystick.
6. On the Other Tools menu by pressing down the jostick navigate to [2=read CPLD_32 user code], get it and write it on a media.
7. On the Other Tools menu by pressing down the jostick navigate to [3=read CPLD_64 user code], get it and write it on a media.
************************************************** **************
C. Evaluating Nand Tools
8. On the Other Tools menu by pressing down the jostick navigate to [4=Nand Tools] and select it by pressing-in the joystick.
9. You can write down on a media what this screen is displaying.
a. Exit the uboot menu by sliding the bottom switch to power off.
************************************************** **************
Now if you have a WWE distribution you can post the above results in the form:
My Boot loader header: CHUD_350_UT_Rxx_yyyy_2G or CHUD_350_UT_Rxx_yyyy_512M or whatever.
WWE CheckSUM: 0x........ CPLD_32: 0x........ CPLD_64: 0x........
followed by the description of your Nand Tools menu.
************************************************** **************
Thanks for commenting and supporting.
************************************************** **************
************************************************** **************
Update on 7/9/2010:
The thread is updated due to final info on entry to uboot loader menu.
[HOW TO] dump your original ROM is added,see bellow.
The next step is the development of custom/official ROMs.
****************************************************************
There are at least two ways to enter the Boot Loader menu:
****************************************************************
A. First way.
1. Disconnect usb and power adaptor (all) cables from the device.
2. Turn the device to power off by sliding the bottom switch from ON to OFF position.
3. Press and HOLD the device top power button and then slide the switch from OFF to ON position.
Important note: KEEP holding top power button when sliding bottom power switch and release it when enter to bootloader.
****************************************************************
B. Second way.
1. Disconnect usb and power adaptor (all) cables from the device.
2. Turn the device to power off by sliding the bottom switch from ON to OFF position.
3. Hold JOYSTICK RIGHT + press and hold RIGHT BUTTON.
4. Slide bottom switch to ON
Important note: KEEP holding JOYSTICK RIGHT + RIGHT BUTTON when sliding bottom power switch and release it when enter to bootloader.
****************************************************************
[HOW TO] dump your ROM.
****************************************************************
This is how to dump your original ROM part00.raw, part01.raw and part02.raw files for future use.
These are guidelines and the addresses in blue from your own device must be used in the commands instead of those in the example.
1. Get the itsutils from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=XdaUtils
... and unpack in your desire disc (C:\itsutils, D:\itsutils, etc.)
2. Connect your device to a PC/Laptop, sync and on your PC/Laptop run a command line or shortcut and issue the following commands:
2.1 First command:
C:\itsutils>pdocread -l
[Tap on yes, if asked to accept running the dll.]

Hi pavlac,
This is outstanding news for P560 and hope for P360 too!!
I will prepare the WWE WM6 5.2 17945 Build 17945.0.3.2 just for testing/archiving purposes.
This version will be used after flashing a WM6.1 / WM6.5 ROM and one wants to send the device for service.
In order to proceed it is very important to describe the screen (s) of the menu:
1. Describe exactly of what you see (or make a photo in .jpg format) of the main menu and
2. Describe each one of the submenus, if any, regarding ce image upgrade.
You can also send me a private info post by clicking on name above my avatar, if you like to do so.
Regards, ansar.

Mio P560 Boot Loader Main Menu & Submenus:

Hi pavlac,
Your contribution to P360/P560 ROM development is unparallel.
I will prepare the WWE WM6 CE OS 5.2.17945 Build 17945.0.3.2 first.
If your device has a different one, before flashing a new ROM you must dump your own ROM first.
For details see #1 post.
If you have any difficulty just let me know.
The ROM that will be prepared it will be flashed as a CE image, no change to UBOOT and MS_IPL, and so will be absolutely safe.
Stay tuned and Best Regards, ansar.

Hi ansar.
I have tried to get the bootloader mode on the p560, but no succes
Any other ideas ?

Hi,
Can you describe (exactly, not i did follow the instructions) in detail how did try to enter bootloader?
See also Important Note in #1 post.
Regards, ansar.

The method described in the first post doesn't work (for Mio P360). Holding the top power button and setting the bottom switch to "ON" does nothing other than booting into WM normally. I also tried the P350 method (holding the joystick "DOWN" and switching the PDA on) and it booted into WM safe mode.
Also, pavlac's screenshots in post #4 seem to be from Mio P350, not P360 (see the CHUB350_UT_R09_0911_2G header in the first attachment).
I'm also interested in backing up/upgrading P360's ROM if anyone can help I'd appreciate it!

Hi,
All Mio P350/P550 report OSCAR at main uboot screen.
Try a variation to press and HOLD the top [+] button and slide the bottom switch to OFF.
Keep holding down the top [+] and slide the bottom switch to ON.
Do not release top [+] up to enter uboot.
Regards, ansar.

None of these work
I have tried many variations of button pressing and nothing brings up the boot menu.
Anyway, thanks for your time, if I find anything I'll post it!

Hi.
I found something on polish pda forum. Try this:
Bottom switch OFF, hold JOYSTICK RIGHT + press and hold RIGHT BUTTON, keep holding both and then slide bottom switch to ON.
On my P560 it dosen't work, but I hope Yours will be OK.

OKAY that did it!
Different procedure for such similar devices is strange though...
And the boot screens are similar to those you have posted in the previous page, my header is CHUB350_UT_R12_1105_512M. I have a Greek ROM, if you are interested, I will back it up and post the link here (as long as the admins verify my account and let me post external links).
Regards!!

Working for me too (mio P360),
french ROM, header is CHUB350_UT_R12_1105_512M too

I would like to propose some additions to the guide on the first post :
1) For Mio P360, the navigation in the boot menu is done with the joystick, but the selection (ENTER) of each item is done with the right button, not by pressing the joystick.
2) The device must be connected to the computer and synchronized to WMDC/ActiveSync in order to dump the ROM.
3) There is a security prompt to accept the run of itsutils.dll by the device, it should be accepted.
4) The HEX addresses that the ROM parts reside on ARE NOT THE SAME in every device (maybe they are the same for same devices), so after the first command pdocread -l the addresses should be noted for use in the next steps.
For my device (Mio P360 ELL ROM), part02 of the ROM was in address 0x2c40000 and not 0x2d80000 as ansar's (this happens in mumux's device as well as I see).
So the commands must be :
pdocread -w -d SMFLASH -b 0x800 -p Partxx 0 <HEX address of Partxx as seen in the first command> Partxx.raw
Also I want to note that reading of CPLD_64 User Code FAILED (!!) and that when tried to enter the NAND Tools menu, my device froze and I had to soft reset it. Any answers why these happen could come handy.
Cheers

Here is the ELL ROM dump from Mio P360 :
UT Checksum = 0x41B9AAD
OS Checksum = 0xFB95D345
CPLD_32 User Code = 0000B5C9
CPLD_64 User Code = *** FAIL! *** (WTF?)

Hi,
The #1 post is updated, please include your boot loader header i.e. CHUD_350_UT_Rxx_yyyy_512M.
It seems that CPLD_32 and CPLD_64 [Complex Programmable Logic Device] are used to distinguish
the logic capacity of the two-input NAND gates for each implementation [P360 or P560].
So do not worry about it, each device must access its own NAND memory size.
Thanks for the ELL P360 distribution and commenting and supporting.
Regards, ansar.
