Editing Windows CE 4.2 ROM - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi all,
Im busy to unlockin an old Mio 268+ navigator with Windows CE 4.2 on it.
I have allready edit the rom so it only boots windows CE + taskbar ( And no old crappy navigator software ).
I flashed this new rom succesfull on the device.
Now i want to put some files in the rom and let them put into the Windows folder.
I've tried to just put the files in the rom and flash it, but the files arent in the Windows folder after flashing.
So my question was, wich file defines where to put all the files that are in the Rom file ( .BIN ) after flashing/installing. Or is this information somewhere in the register ?
Like the file "MioStartup.exe" it is in the rom file and after flashing it is perfectly in the Windows folder.
Sorry for my crappy english, im not very good at languages
Please help me.
Thanks in advance,
Roel / Roewl

nobody ?

how you flash the rom??
you have this rom?
i have a ndrive g400 gps with tomtom and route 66.
is a wince device to..

Download the rom from the Mio website, its an update to use v3 maps.
U can download the complete .bin file from the site en strip it like u want.
But no one has an anwser to my question ?

can you post how you chaged the MioStartUp.exe in Flashrom?
I did a flash too, Typhoon Myguide 3500GO to Mio 269+. (you can enter a Flashmenü during boot which loads ROM Images from SD Card (Takes a long time)

Windows Media Player 10 Mobile

Microsoft have released Windows Media Player 10 Mobile but only to manufacturers. It is not, and will not be, available as an update or download unless your manufacturer provides an update or updated ROM.
I pulled a ROM update down from one of the OEMs whove done an update and could extract the files for WMP10M, but I'm not sufficiently up with the whole ROM cooking thing to incorporate them into a new ROM for my Blue Angel.
Anyone fancy giving this a go ?
Can you Zip the files and Upload here?
yeah, let the expert assist you.
I am very keen to have WMP 10 too.
just upload the ms.nbf file of that ROM and the rest is up to us.
This is a link to the ROM update for the Dell Axim x30 that contains WMP10 :
http://support.dell.com/support/dow...eviceid=6672&devlib=7&releaseid=R87096&p=HTTP
I downloaded this and used a tool (which I now cant find - doh!) to extract it.
What else would you guys need ?
Do you need a copy of my current ROM ?
If so, how do I make a copy of it ?
Sorry, that last post was me...forgot to login.
i have downloaded the file.
After extracting, i found 2 *.IMG :roll:
therefore, i try to use UltraISO or MagicISO just to extract *.IMG but it fails.
Some other experts may need to participate
I presume DumpRom will not help us.. Mamaich? :wink:
What kind of Pocket Pc have you upgraded? Dell ??
OK.
I got an iPAQ rom update from HP here : http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/handhelds/us/download/22279.html
I ran it so it copied the filees onto my PC hard drive.
I then ran dumprom.exe against the d2b10110uo.nbf file and got all the files from the ROM.
I have them all in a zip file as I am not sure exactly which ones are required for WMP10M. I have zipped up and attached all the ones that look as though they are WMP10M related.
i suppose all the files has to be zip into *.CAB
and copy over to PDA and unzip it
is this all the files that belongs to WMP?
i think let the expert do some testing

Sorry, I must hve missed your comment. The rom can be got from here : http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/handhelds/us/download/22279.html
Sorry, tried to upload but it keeps failing.
Anyone tried copying the files in wm.zip to their xda2 and trying to run wmplayer.exe ?
wanna try but at work with no cradle
Locked up after a few seconds of the "wait" icon on my PDA2K running 1.31 WWE and 1.06.02 Radio.
First you are missing many WmFiles,there are many that are not begin to Wmxxxx,but unfortunately I can't remeber others.
And I think DumpRom is missing relocation on Dll files,like discussed time ago
I thought someone had mentioned that WMP10 software is "somehow" tied into the hardware or the OS specific to the devices so it wouldnt be possible to extract the executable application and make a cab or whatever and run it on any other devices that it didnt ship with...
I'm no guru with ROMs and stuff.. but if any one of you guys manages to make this work, it will be awesome!
Good luck!
i heard someone had the cab or a way to install wmp10 ... anyone here knows how?

Artemis Windows Mobile 6 WWE

This ROM is based on the official German O2 ROM:
http://www.o2online.de/nw/support/downloads/software/xda/xdaorbit/index.html
- replaced the localized packages
- removed the O2 operator package (Settings and O2 Theme)
Big thanks to rvbcrs for helping and mirroring
I don’t have an Artemis... ok, my girlfriend has one, but she would kill me if I use that... so the ROM has not been tested.
Please report all problems here.
!!! This thread is not for questions about unlocking the device !!!
- In case that you have questions about that open your own thread -
Download the ROM by reading and clicking the red text
Some screen captures: (again thanks to rvbcrs!)
whAT about to compile it to nbh back? for exam use dopod Radio, empty extrom. And flfash it back?
Bepe ..!
this is cool
Thanks a lot
---updated---
Thought to try using the PDAMobiz package and replace the ROM and give it a try even though it's based on pdocwrite.. Result is an error during writing at some time.. So kids don't try this is you don't know how to recover using the bootloader or you'll have a brick.
------
I'm actually flashing it at the moment... I hope I won't regret this..
... but somebody has to try..

Hi,
Can you tell us how you flashed it ? From bootloader results in a CRC/Certificate error.. Using pdocwrite (modified from PDAMobiz) resulted in a somewhat delayed write error here.. So what did I miss ?

press voice command button and press reset -colour bars - loaded success
then used ARTE from FTP site, copied os.nb to arte folder and rename it to windows.nb -run upgraderom.bat.
Update:
Never mind. Figured it out..

Hi,
What file exactly do you mean (filename pls) ? I only know of the PDAMobiz roms which are installed using a batch file.. The only ARTE I know if the official Dopod firmware update but it doesn't come with a batch file..

is your device orbit ?
is it cid-unlocked ?
then use winrar to unpack the (bepe) wm6 wwe rom in this page (written in red). flashed using bootloader method.
after u get german rom installed , run ARTE os flash utility from xda ftp.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Artemis/arte.zip unpack
copy os.nb from first folder (bepe) wwe rom to arte folder and rename os.nb to windows.nb then run UpgradeRom.bat
hard reset, soft reset done.
hello
how to run arte flasher on vista 64bit?
thanks
Requires a reset here since the os.nb/windows.nb update never finishes visually.. After that it works fine (after the reset needed during the missing bmp when customization attempts to start), exactly as you described.. Works great
For those wondering.. Works fine under Vista (32 bit version).. No idea about 64 bit version.

I tried to flash it yesterday with the updaterom.bat file and it just stayed copying to my phone so I thought it did not work, but after killing the process after 25 min and resetting my phone I had WWE WM6 on my Artemis, still I think it is strange that pdocwrite never finishes. Apart from that great ROM some minor issues..
Cant download full ROM, only 24 M and stop, tried few times. Can someone upload to different place. Please!!

bepe, can you tell me how much free RAM you have? I hope that you have more than 30 MB by removing all the O2 stuff. I never had more than 30 MB after a hard reset and some of my apps need 30 but I have only 20 now.
I was wondering if the apps e.g. windows live messenger are still in German?

My Orbit is from O2 UK, does it still have to be CID unlocked to get this WM6 on it?

It really is a WWE rom... I replaced all German files and rebuilded (not edited!) the Registry based on the WWE packages. The screencaptures will prove it
I suppose you really know how to do this stuff. Can you tell me which tools I need for "cookin" my own ROM? I'd like to have it in German and with my own Ext ROM, maybe I can get rid of some apps that waste my RAM. I only need the names of the tools, I'd guess they are on the xda-dev ftp server. And how do I extract the ROM from the installation file? In your signature you have a nice GUI for the Hermes stuff, is it the same for the Artemis. If you want you can send me a short PM in German.
By the way, the link should be: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Artemis/arte.zip thats what people say about error 530

P320 ROM WWE is now available on asus support website.
Alternatively, you can download it directly from their ftp.
ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/ASUS/Mobile_Phone/P320/
If your P320 is originally a Chinese machine, and you want to flash it to other language, just follow what rajivenator did.
1) Download both Chinese ROM and English ROM (or other language you need)
2) Extract the zip files and you'll get a "2577" folder for each ROM.
3) Copy the "autorun.exe" of the Chinese ROM and the .bin file of the English ROM into a "2577" folder anywhere you like.
4) Then copy this "2577" folder to the micro sd card and put it into P320.
5) Normally it will autorun and what you need to do is to follow the on-screen instruction.
6) If nothing happens, open File Explorer and go to the "2577" folder and click autorun.exe.
Hope it will help some of you.
Cheers

Download and extract this file, and then copy 850_GAX_SD.bin (hidden) to root of SD card. Plug SD card to PPC and switch device to SD boot loader by holding Volume down button and
click Reset, still holding Volume down until you see card checking.

Change P320 rom
thks for the instructions
Cheers
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have purchased this Asus P320 from france thinking that it would be a dodle to change the language to English, just a simple swap of roms. But it seems alot more complicated than that, I have read an earlier post which gives me an idea of how to change the roms but this was for chinese to french. It wont seem to work getting it to go from French to english. Any Ideas on what to download or do? I have followed these instructions on here but change it from french to english; like take the auto installer from the french rom firmware and take the WWE rom but it still says that it is wrong language and if i try reseting it with holding the vol down key then it says that it has failed to boot from the sd card Am I doing the right thing???
A little info on what rom I think it has at the moment (original rom)
BTLR 3.1
Rom 4.5.0_0528_FRA_FRA
I have started a different post about this but got no replys so I posted it here
Has no one got an answer to this ??? no solutions?
Hi Brett
I have the same problem with my device that is from the Italian cellphone provider TIM , its italian , however i have tried every trick in the forum here and it fails to boot.
I am looking forward to sort this one out to.Form italian to English thats my game )

You must download it, open it with TotalCommander (or other program with hidden files visibility), copy the file 850_GAX_SD.bin in the root of SD and play!!!
Italian to English
Himmm,
Didn't try that out to be honest , i will give it a try ASAP , but the totalcommander is another software that i need to get i guess in this case.because i tried already the same steps that the regular chinese ASUS owners would do , but unfortunately , the time i get to the step where i do the volume button down and reset , it fails.
But i will give it a go and post what happens and thank you
thank's up ok
Nope, it restarts and fails, what I am doing is downloading from that link you have and taking the 850_GAX_SD.bin file and placing it into the 2577 folder on the SD card along with the Autorun.exe of the Fra (french) rom which i downloaded from the Asus Download section on their website, Is that right? or am I missing out a step
Iv noticed something about the french rom files is named 850_GAX_SD_Enc.bin instead of the others which are named 850_GAX_SD.bin ....is this how it should be?
any Ideas on any of that?

i780 DDHE1 - Upgrade to WM6.1?

Hi All,
I just bought a i780 with WM6 in India. I am very very new to Windows Mobile and to be honest I have gone through several threads on XDA Forum, its all bit confusing for me.
I would like to upgrade my WM6 to WM6.1 and my version is DDHE1 as it is from India.
It will be of gr8 help to a starter like me if someone could give a definitive answer on what ROM I should download and where, What Hex text I have to change and any other info.
I know this is a lot to ask, also the answer may lie in several of the threads in this forum. But for a nube like me, it will be of gr8 help if someone can give me a definitive answer.
Thanks.

Thanks dreamtheater39 for your detailed instructions. I'm n00b for flashing ROMs. Right now, I've upgraded to DXIB1 using Samsung's official all-in-one upgrader. But, I will surely try various cooked ROMs - EFN, Heros, Inertiax, etc.
ddhe1 --> dxib1
Finally got my i780 DDHE1 ROM updated to DXIB1.
Figured which file to edit, how to edit for this:
Upon unzipping (using Winrar) the DXIB1 upgrader downloaded from Samsung website as per sunaymehta's instructions, edit the DXIB1_XP.Exe (for XP) using HxD editor suggested by mGforCe. Search for I780DX, change it to I780DD (this is at only one place - near to very end of the Exe file), save the file. That's it. Then follow the upgrade instruction given in FAQ to move from DDHE1 to DXIB1.
i780 (Indian) Upgrad
Thanks I followed your steps, worked fine for me too

oh guy ,
rally i don't use any thing you say
and any program I test on Diamond Android it's ruing
and I use Android 2.2 Froyo .
Android on Diamond is a Go
Its high time I feel a seperate section is opened for Android here. As this the most happening place for our little Diam. Also Android on Diam is closing to as stable as possible. With more users testing will encrouge more to develop.
Afterall you guys here made WM6.5 and Sense 2.5 work more stable for the Diamonds and hope they will continue to do so in android also.
What is the MENU key ? i've pressed them all, and nothing...
upd:
NEVERMIND... was using updated kernel... not the package one.
Sorry to HiJack the thread ! If you had to point at the most stable and fast 2.2 rom, what would it be ?
