Hallo
I'm looking for a German WM 6.1 ROM that has no modifications onborad (no HTC stuff or something like that) I have to take the MUI's from this ROM (Important open for kitchen).

bepe, you can use my kitchen to easily extract files/ replace files/ edit registry/ edit initflash ... i hope youll make a good translation
Gimme some work to do
Hi !
Great Idea, give me some work to do, maybe translating / checking translation, or stuff like this.
PM me
soniX
hey bepe
this is great!
same goes for me. just let me know if i can help.
help wanted
same for me...
Thanks for the offering, but I'm mostly fighting with the configuration of that ROM. The translation was the easy part, cos I was able to use things from existing German ROMs...
I think there will be a beta the next days and I would need you all to check that for bugs
You've got a guinea pig right now
If it does not brick my phone, I will help you testing out...
soniX
can you fix swedish rom
can you fix swedish rom Wm6

That’s the problem...
I don’t have a Hermes, so I cannot try it myself.
Bad thing is that I cannot guaranty that the ROMs I need tested would not brick a device.
I do my best, but no one is perfect and it is easy to brick a Hermes
asukal is testing the ROMs for me... he is a really good friend and I'm sure we will find a solution in case of bricking his device.
BTW, he will test the beta too... so it should not brick your devices
can you fix swedish rom Wm6

no, sorry... I can only make a German rom at the moment
1) If you substitute some files, reg values etc.. why you have to rebuild the Os and don't make a cab file installer??
2) Can you add to the first post ALL the registry keys changed & all the files substituted (and other things done)?
..also i want to start an italian translation project... but for now i'm searching spellcheck & words dictionary... and fixing keyboard issues..

the cab would be to big... about 6MB... also I think that it is better to have a clean rom

you should try my package tool
use it to build packages of your rom and you will see that there are localized packages like: Base_Lang_0409
all files inside this localized packages should be replaced
Bepe's tool is great, give it a try.
are there any news?
greets
voxid
some screens
and one more
first beta of the rom (torrent)
I'm not sure the torrent will work, cos I never used that to share things...

Desperated!!! Cooking Spanish WM6.1 ROM - Please Help!

Hi, i´m very disapointed at this moment because can get a working ROM translation of WM6.1 build 19199.
To begín step by step the first thing i want is change folders names like Startup o Program files. I made changes in initFlashFiles.dat, and default.hv. but the ROM don´t boot. WHY????
What are the files i need to edit just to change folders names?.
PD: I already checked initflashfiles.dat is unicode file and remove the first two bytes, that´s not the problem.
Please HELP ME!!! i don´t know if there´s something i miss to do.
I´m very interested for doing this ROM because there isn´t any WM6.1 Spanish ROM for trinity.
Thanks.

why you work on .hv files when you have the bepe's kitchen and all rgus you want, only have to compare the rgu from 6.1 with an original corresponding spanish wm 6.0 rgu.....
for muis, you have to translate into sys folder:
base_lang muis, browsing muis and all muis into ***_lang___ folders into sys
to do it, try with restorator 2007 (shareware)
in menus, dialogs and strings, compare them step by step with original spanish mui, with the wm 6.1 WWE, and overwrite the originals with the wwe, you now have double menus id into one, if there are corresponding in spanish and english, check if there are same voices inside, and delete the wwe, if not (if there is only the wwe) you have to translate it, in some hours of work, and if partecipate more than only a person, you can have all muis, all rgu and iniflashfiles.dat translated in spanish...
also for initflashfiles.dat and oemapps you can check them with original spanish 6.0....
I translated into italian, so you can tranlsate into spanish, or german or in every language you want.
Be not discouraged champion... to my this is escaped from my short brain, I don't also have little idea of English, but for what is here you have me
Ok. I axl have the same problem. I can make roms with old kitchen but I am unable to make then with bepe's & ervius. I don't know where I miss something but resulting roms don't boot.
We can try to put in common our researches, so if we are stopped at diferent points we can finish it up.
- I am using as a base rom FAMAN's 4.00 (for me the best spanish rom). I extract XIP from this rom.
- Then I take master bepe's WM6.1. I process it with buildos+package_tools-2.7.exe.
- Edit initflash.dat and check .hv's
- Build with buildos...
Rom doesn't boot at all.
solution found
I found a solution, and get a working ROM...
Is not the kitchen i use all of then, I think is the shellres.dll.xxxx.mui, i have modified it with restorator, i added the missing resources in my spanish mui, from the original working one. After this i delete the shellres.dll.xxxx.mui folder, and place the mui into the dump folder.
After this and after translate the registry and initflashfiles.dat into my language, and change all muis to my country code, the ROM finally boot.
Thanks Ervius and everybody for helping me so much... i have learn so much from all cookers in this forum.
Soon we will release WM6.0 and WM6.1 Spanish ROMS, stay tuned WM6.0 versión is close to finish.

New PROBLEM
Hi all, i´m close to finish spanish translation, but i have some problems.
1- MMS doesn´t appear in messaging, and Send MMS command in contacts options doesn´t work. What are the files related with this?, any mui?. I haven´t touch anything in registry but changed xxx_409 files to xxx_C0A to get files working with my language code.
2- Network Wizard or any cab for setting operator internet settings (GPRS Settings and WAP Settings) doesn´t work, it raise me a "database Error". What are the files related with this?, any mui?.
I know all these errors are caused by me in the process of translation, so in WWE original version these things works. Please Help me to find where is the mistake.
If i fix this two errors, i will be able to release a beta versión of my spanish WM6.1 ROM.
Thanks.

There are not packages, these features are included into the base ROM i`m triying to translate, i can´t separate into packages.
I´m working directy on the dump directory of the ROM, it must be some file i replace with translated one, or any reference in registry.

I am unable to make a bootabe of 6.1 . I made quite a lot from 6 with Faman, but I miss something in this one.
1.- Did you check inside the mui's to see if here is any reference to 0409?.
2.- There was a problem with the network wizard, check if operators.txt has first line null.

Artemis Diamondish 6.1 Build 20721.1.4.0 + Build 20273/19965 (ROM + Kitchen)

Hi,
I would like to share the kitchen that I use to build my personal ROM. It's SYS and XIP were ported from the stock Diamond 1.93.456.2 WWE ROM that Tom made available and the kitchen is Bepe's kitchen.
Here it is (Build 19965.1.2.3):
http://rapidshare.com/files/130210385/Artemis_Diamondish_6.1_Build_19965.1.2.3.zip
UPDATE1: I have made a few changes in the OEM folder, I have added Advanced Config, added a patched htc home for the weather and made some changes to the registry. The changed files are in the attached zip.
Pre-Built ROM (NBH) can be downloaded from here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/130466202/Artemis_Diamondish_6.1_Build_19965.1.2.3_NBH_ROM.zip
(Usual rules for cooked roms, i.e. USPL etc.. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331845)
UPDATE2: I have uppdated the XIP and SYS to use build 20273.1.3.3 and use .NET CF 3.5 as suggested, thanks xvx45

Pre-Built ROM (NBH) can be downloaded from here:

Here are some screen shots (of build 19965, mainly the same as build 20273 and 20721 but version numbers changed):
Nice work bro, nice to see new "faces" on Artemis forum.
Cheers.
Thanks, been here a while, just learning as I go. I thought it was a bit quiet on the new ROM front.
Thank you very much for you sharing!
Maybe this was the push i needed to start also cooking.
Who knows...
Cheers
Thanks for share man!
Do you have some screenshots of this ROM?
INFO
Hi,
Just extracted, saw all the separate files, did i miss the full .nb rom image or is this post to cook yourself with the htc romtool?
I know there are a look of cooking-guides, but can anyone explain simple which files tot select from the extraction when running the htc rom tool you have to fill in :
G3 IPL
G4 IPL
SPL
Splash
Radio Ext.Rom
OS
Can i add also .cab files for example somewhere to add to this rom?
Would like to cook first rom.
Thanks,
Innovator
Hi, just run the batch file "BuildNB.bat" and that will generate the .nb and .nbh files, they were removed to reduce the size of the archive.
You may also need to install the VC8 Runtime first, that can be found in the archive:
"tools\vcredist_x86.exe"
There is a tool from Ervius (I think that it is called "packages creator") that will convert cabs to OEMs suitable for cooking with.
Thank you mate, I'll try to make it compatible with Orange France SPV M650 AGPS
Maybe my starting element to come with Artemis community more often (actually my phone but Icook on my old Prophet at this time).
Good job
Hey guys,
This seems promising. I've just installed Tom's latest but have been troubled by bugs (it happens) since he's no longer responding to queries I decided I needed to learn to cook one myself (should be fairly straightforward).
Perhaps we should pool experience & resources and work together, I mean if you look at the activity in the Kaiser forum, you'd be forgiven for feeling a bit left out.
One person could design gfx the other sounds etc. Otherwise I might swap my Artemis for a Kaiser (yes I've been begged!!)
Forgive me if this seems like a pipe dream...

I agree, it would be nice to have an "open" ROM that the community contributes to, I hope that this would keep the Artemis platform alive for future releases of Windows Mobile.
P3350
Hi all... i am very new to cooking and still thinking of getting my feet wet... have a couple of questions...
1. I have a P3350 (Artemis with out GPS) and when i install all these roms they are sluggish when compared to P3300s. My friend has a P3300 and the same ROM is fater ... I tested it immediately after flashing by opening the windows folder and other apps... should i be doing any thing different to get my device up to speed?
2. The ROM on the rapid share (http://rapidshare.com/files/13046620....3_NBH_ROM.zip) is this a directly installable ROM?
3. What should i be doing with the 'changed files'.
Sorry if i am sounding noob...

I don't know of any, but I am looking into a similar issue that I see with my orbit, I think that I am going to look at the XIP region of the ROM to see if there is something device specific there, sorry for not being much help.

Yes, this contains everything but assumes that your device is already running the SPL and only contains the OS portion and not the radio. Look at the link in the first post for help on flashing cooked roms.

Freshup Roms...
Good try for this new rom, but i find the home-skin not stylish enough (dated too soon).
Why not create a rom with Greatball's today screen, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402021
This is the most stylish skin (with SPBMobile 2.1) i have ever seen (last one with analog clock).
Together with Greatball's Samurai Diamond Weather + Night
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402124
Would be the most fresh looking rom ever
In combination with latest msn, SPB-backup,PPCBackupcontacts,...
Who can do this & freshup our Artemis for a long time ?
Thanks,
Cheers!

When an Italian version?
I have no plans to produce any other languages, but the source to the kitchen is all there for someone to translate to suit thier needs.
Ok, I've tested and make my first Artemis ROM (for test use for the moment).
I've been implemented Orange AGPS drivers but no luck no automatic connexion at the moment when GPS is activated so, I'll make more try. So I've removed some components (Adobe flash & reader, Diamond Keyboard and some little thing) that I don't want and this ROM is stable and fast...very fast coocked with NETCF3.5 Now I'll translate it to French if I've time to that more than my future release
Just one thing mpattman : why to release this kitchen with NETCF 2.0 and not directly 3.5 ?
And the last Word : Thank you mpattman !!!
I can not down your ROM and MYkitchen,please get it to FTP,thank you.
Thanks a ton...
Thanks MPattMan...
I am downloading the kitchen, and will try understanding stuff... will post if i have any doubts... do u have any guide on how to do stuff like adding the programs that i want ? ... i will be more than willing to help, test and learn.

Japanese WM6.1 ROM for X01HT

being tired of seeing too many protected roms floating around, i decided to make japanese wm6.1 cooking base files myself. it took me awhile, but i finally figured it out. i would like to share my experience of making a japanese wm6.1 rom for hermes here.
actually, it is not that difficult, and all i did was just assembling pieces from different official roms. so, i would NEVER call it my OWN rom or anything because every part of the original roms was developed by MS and HTC. (sorry, but i really think it's too funny many people, who know slightly better than others, put their names in the ver info, apply procection or whatever to their roms, and say "this is my own rom!" for something made out of other roms originally built by MS and HTC.... is this place for dev info sharing for similar-minded guys? donations?? c'mon!)
i will explain about the details step by step later. here's a rough tutorial.
things you need:

ftp://htc-jp.com/EM/S11HT_firm_V2_6_881_0_JPN.exe
[basic strategy]
[oem]
1) bepe's oem folder is very simple and clean for cooking (some modifications are necessary in *.rgu files, tho)
2) replace OEM.cer by the one from x04ht rom
[rom]
1) basically, you can take OEMXIPKernel from bepe's xip or from htc hermes official wm6.0 rom
2) MSXIPKernel and MSXIPKernelLTK are from x04ht rom or whatever you want
3) use os.nb from htc hermes official wm6.0 rom just as a template
[sys] (tricky)
1) the base is opal sys. but remove all the language specific (0409) folders.
2) take the language specific but non-vga folders from x04ht, x05ht or whatever wm6.1 japanese rom (0411 folders not including dpi_192)
3) take language specific qvga folders (the 0411_DPI_96 folders) from s11ht
4) take .vm folder, packages.* in metadata folder, and service.exe in os folder, shell32.exe and shellres.dll in shell folder from hermes official or bepe's sys. (irda is not included in opal rom. take them from bepe's rom if you wanna use irda.)
[points]
1) don't forget to copy WinCENLS_Lang_0411 into your sys. otherwise, the device does not boot since WinCENLS_Lang_0411 is not included in xip.
2) if you take sys from any newer versions, taskmgr does not work since it is not signed by softbank. remove mxipupdate_taskmgr_shell_1.provxml in base_lang_0411. it's useless, anyway.
3) this method does not create shotcuts in windows\appbuttons. you need create those shortcuts with japanese names yourself to make the buttons work properly. (does anyone know how these shortcuts are automatically created?)
4) os ver info is stored in the original files. (read here for details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1172925&postcount=1) you can change the ver info as you want, but i REALLY hate to see ver info with someone's name or some personally customized splash screeens. so, the ver info does not reflect the actual ver you take all the files from.
5) i don't think this works only with hermes but with any other qvga devices (you have to change xip part.) hope many other qvga device users can make (assemple?) their own japanese wm6.1 roms freely.
question:
i made a shortcut file with 14 japanese (2 byte) letters and put it in the windows directory, but the hermes did not boot. i changed the name to 13 japanese letters, and then it booted... are there any filename restrictions for east asian language files??
reserved for step-by-step guide
here is the japanese wm6.1 cooking base files for hermes
sys: 21014
xip: 21014
oem: basically based on htc oem
http://www.mediafire.com/?3almqggzvgy (OS.NB.payload is not included. place one in rom folder.)
sys: 20931
xip: 20931
oem: basically based on bepe's oem
others: commmanager and calc replaced for the touch looks
note: i did not modified the ver info in shellres.dll.0411.mui, and the ver info shown in control panel does not reflect the real os ver.
note2: this file is just for cookers. i will not provide the rom tuned up for my own use. i will not response to "please send me your rom" requests. (sorry)
link
http://www.mediafire.com/?2gfymtframj
you can use these files FREELY since i simply assembled them from the other roms. they don't belong to be from the beginning. (.VM is not included. take it from another hermes rom to cook it!!)
happy new year, and happy cooking!
Congrats and welcome to hermes cooking sir. if you need a copy of a unprotected rom of mine, just let me know, PM or post
Peace sir,
Joshua
Very big thank for you...

I'm Andy. Thank you very much, qtotter-san.
Lately I've been thinkin about changing my handheld (I'm using BA and MPx200 at this moment). But, despite my condition as a Japanese language student, I would love to have a Handheld powered by Japanese Windows OS. To buy Japan's handheld seems to expensive for me, so I decided to search for Japanese ROM first, then decide which one shall I buy.
I've been searching all the time for Japanese ROM (not 日本語化 ROM but 日本語版 ROM FILES), n finally, look what I found here, not only Japanese ROM, but Hermes WM6.1 Japanese cooking base (very big thanks ^o^). I've tried to search in xda-developers, and some other forum, but still unable to find Japanese ROM. I'd also sent private messages to Japanese developers here, but still I have no idea where to find Japanese ROM.
And now, I found this thread. This really helps me.
心から感謝を申し上げます。(kokoro kara kansha wo moushiagemasu)
Once again thank You very much, qtotter-san. I really appreciate your hardwork.

I hope the explanation of WM6.5,please!
Opal/Diamond Dialpad
if you use opal dialpad with japanese wm6.1 rom, smart dialing stops working. i happened to find a solution while playing with my diamond. just delete the following reg key to make smart dialing work.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\PhoneKeyMatch]
"SmartFilterFlags"=dword:00000002
This entry is in the *.rgu of Base_Lang_0411.
Download won't start
Is anything wrong with the server?
Woops!
Problem solved by deleting temporary internet files
updated japanese wm6.1 base to 21014
i will update msg #3 shortly.
Thanks qtotter sann!

WM6.5 - a plea for a clean/extralight version, pls.!!!

@all,
one may think of wm6.5 what one wants, comparing them roms to wm6.1 they are not my choice, though some nice effects of wm6.5 are rather nice!
I am mainly using my p3300 for tomtom navigation and phone-function in between!
wm6.5 makes tomtom runs by far more zippy, startup is reduced, recalculating an alternative route or correcting an error is done more speedily. In addition i find the graphics somehow to be far more crisp within wm6.5!
..and thats about all i really find more positive, for my usage!
wm6.5 is terrible within changing from tomtom to an incoming call, never mind trying to start an outgoing call...
the worst though is the start menue: absolutely useless to use in any way with your fingers; you always end up opening various other porgrams trying to scroll down the list
In other words:
I would be highly appreciative if someone would cook a wm6.5 alike yues extralight: speedy, stripped, light yet functional in its basics phone and gps!

I'm wanting a clean 6.5 too, but the latest builds are too buggy. I think we M$ is in the process of altering the GUI altogether and the current builds are 'passages'. Maybe we should let M$ do its thing and come out with a build which has proper finger friendly popups rather than horrible enlarged ones of the old 6.1 popups
Other than that, I'd love to cook a clean 6.5, but the ones I cooked (23034 and 23037) are extremely slow to release! If somebody tells me what files I can delete to make it faster......
WM 6.5 clean
for example

any more examples?
since i am registered at 4pda.ru, i see you are the cook of this rom, right?
greetz
p.s. downloading and giving it a try...
here are some screenshots
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=115951&st=380&p=2734290&#entry2734290
Great, this is just the right track!
This rom is really faaassst!
Unfortunately its fully russian - anything in WWE?
greetz
p.s. its "mother" Pham Quang - build 21502.5.0.7 is just the usual "snake" again!
chances of getting some help along the way?
trying to change the language via:
"use ervius VK
1- dump a swedish ROM
2- use the swedish OEM and EXT folders
3- use the swedish ROM/Kovsky/"build no."/ folder (OEMXIPKernel), just change the old build numbers to the new build ones
4- use the new ROM/Shared/"new build no."/ folder (MSXIPKernel)
4- use the new build SYS folder, but replace all 0409 folders with swedish ones from the same SYS build or similar build (eg. you can add 23022 swedish files into a 23028 build)
5- cook"
greetz
p.s.: so you can easily access the russian wm6.5 light rom from the above post by iggord, i have uplaoded it here:

Yeah I guess that should work

You want Swedish right? If so then I can probably make it and ask you to test it. If WWE I can test myself

i think you are making a mistake in step 3
as far as i know kovsky is name of device(xperia)
so you shouldnt copy OEMXIPKERNEL of that
keep the files same from older builds just change the numbers

Alright I'll give it a shot, but cannot promise when
it will probably be done without much of a hustle if the rom is dumpable

thats what i cant say for sure.
i tried to dump it with the latest ervius kitchen, i get a whole lot of output...but the kitchen seems to freeze at the end!
so to say, for me to do it quickly is the way, as i aint sure of what it is supposed to look like, never mind how i am supposed to go about it!
is there a small-stepped howto?
greetz
i have the knowhow but if the kitchen froze at "adding packages" the rom isn't dumpable....so you'll have to find another one...if you can find a rom that you want (doesn't matter if it's dumpabe) i can try to dump and cook it
do you want it with titanium or you want an extremely light rom
