IPAQ 100 series - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi as a proud owner of a new (well it is to me) ipaq 114, I was just wondering if anyone had cooked a WM 6.5 for it. Or indeed if its even possible.
I'm kinda curious about the whole rom cookin in general, is there any good forums specifically to do with this or, traditional PDAs? (I know this place is mostly for HTC stuff, but it seems like a good place to start)
Thanks for any help, this forum has already been great!

Ipaq hx4700 Forum? (HTC Roadster)

What about a forum for the ipaq hx4700? I know that this website is for HTC PDAs but, the hx4700 was also called the Roadster in some markets and made by HTC. Considering that there's a thread over in the upgrading section with 595,000 views and almost 2000 posts on the hx4700 (and that's just one thread) I think there would be a strong interest in a dedicated forum. Many of the posts are from newbies and not by developers but we do have Kozhura and Menneisyys and many other dev types who have posted quite alot about this device in the past, with Kozhura now on his 4th version of WM6. There seems to be a big following for this device even now with a kitchen having been adapted by vivi to suit it. It would be great to have our own corner somewhere on this wonderful site for our community.
Thank you for the consideration.

Yes, sounds a very good idea

Great idea!
Based on what I was able to see this had a 2003 rom and came out in 2004.
We have added a lot of forums for the new devices and I am not sure if there will be enough users to justify a section a few years late.

That is true, however HP did do a (poor) WM5 upgrade and there are at least two unofficial WM6 ROMs. The hx4700 was ahead of its time and still powerful compared to many on the market today; probably because it doesn't have an inbuilt phone.
There is this thread which is nearly up to 2,000 posts; many of the smart phone forums on XDA developers have nowhere near as many posts in total.
If there was a forum just for the hx4700, then maybe that would entice other hx4700 owners to join up to talk things other than just the ROMs.
I bet there are a few super users that would be happy to moderate a dedicated kx4700 forum too?
You guys don't give up do you ?
OK I admit you do have a valid point. I will put it forward to the sysadmin for a section under
Other HTC manufactured phones
Thank you
Thanks again for the consideration. It is an old device but I think there's quite a bit of interest in it.

i totaly support the idea, and quiet surprised to learn that hx4700 was manufactured by HTC
Yes, you should really make new forum for magnificent hp iPAQ hx4700 (HTC Roadster).
Support the idea.

there are loads of russian language forums but none in english AFAIK.
The hx4700 rocks - nothing comes close for screen size / use IMO.
M.S
Touchscreen calibration file for hx4700 needed
Hello hx4700 users,

Can anyone of you be so kind and send me their touchscreen calibration file als described in this thread?

Your help is greatly appreciated.
THANKS
thank u for the reviwe
maybe late but still great...i have a bit of roblem with screen,but the rest is ok...and it really was ahead of it's time
I'm also interested in this. I think it would fuel discussing on the hx4700
Hi, on my hx4700 (alkor wm6.1) when I paired my bluetooth audiphones, it`s fine,just if it is like new, no progrmas, but whe I charge some progrmas, I can`t connect the devices, there are no way to use it.
Just when the ipaq is just hard reseted. Anybody know what happen?

Phone gone, alternate any good ?

Morning guys,
My diamond went missing yesterday while in town
I have sorted things out with Vodafone and they could not send me a new diamond as it is out of sotck for a while, so I looked through what I could have and chose the HP Ipqa Data Messenger (Vodafone call it the HP Hound for some reason ).
What you guys think about it, and do any of you know any good sources for custom roms and such for these, as I guess XDA don't have a section for them, it does run WM 6.1 Pro, and I am particualry interested in messing wtih WM6.5 on it as I have been very impressed with the 6.5 roms for the diamond and love the new interface.
Your help and comments are much appreciated guys, as always.
Jamie.
bump, somebody must have come across this phone before, it cam out last November ish and runs WM6.1 Pro. Specs very similar to diamond and such.

[REQUEST] Acer M900 WM 6.5 WWE Rom

I'd like to start off by saying "Hello! and Happy New Year!" to everyone.
I just recently received an Acer M900 for Christmas and I have to admit that I am lovin' it.
I am rather new to the Windows Mobile scene but I'm trying hard to catch up.
I know that there are Acer M900 WM 6.5 Roms out there since I've visited 4winmobile and eten-users but they seem to have some sort of bug (not to take away any merit from the chefs because they do a great job!).
So I was wondering if any chef here at XDA could cook up a stable WWE WM 6.5 rom for the Acer M900 since you guys do an amazing job here. I know it's an eten device and not HTC but I've seen some other Acer, Asus and Samsung devices in this forum so I was wondering if this would be possible.
Anyway, hope it's possible and thanks!
bump...anyone?
Yes. I support you and I also bought it for Xmas and I also like it very much.
But the fatal fault of this device force others to stay away with it - RAM!!!
Anyway, I hope some ROM chief have bought this device and start cooking light WM6.5 ROM.

Thats your best bet, its hard to have someone cook a ROM up for you if they dont have the device, and bugs are going to be common in non-stock ROMs, hell even the stock ROMs have bugs

Minimalist 6.5 Rom?

Hey everyone. I am a first time poster and a bit of a WinMo noob (I stick to Android and iPhone for my development). I have been using my old Dash with the 3VO rom ever since my G1 broke, but I had a question.
I like the 3VO rom, but I would really like to try something a bit more minimalist, closer to a vanilla 6.5 rom. I basically just need the HTC tethering utility. Is there a rom out there that would meet my needs? I did a lot of searching and found nothing.
P.S. Is there a place I could go to learn the basics of WinMo manipulation? I would like to try my hand at putting together a rom.

Why don´t you give AlekSS´s Rom a try? It´s like a Vanilla version of WM6.5.
About your need for manipulation, try to contact the chefs: AlekSS, NRGZ28, Ookba, Rickywatt (I think he is no longer an active excalibur chef), Stylez. They are not rockstars and very accessible. PM them.
Also, take a look @ the Development and Hacking forum. You can find valuable info there.

To all Moderators, Programmers and the Experts of WinMo!!!

To all Moderators, Programmers and the Experts of WinMo, why there's are still much problems from the others members that cannot be done or resolve from their threads in each section of forum, including mine?
I suggest to all of you, please help them and me!
firstly of all your link doesn't show your problem
secondly and most importantly: this is not a way to achieve anything except looking like a fool to other members.
everyone has problems,but people mostly search,ask in specific threads and wait for the response,or even come up with own solutions.
you can't come here and say hey solve my problem, it just isn't alright and it seems very selfish.
imagine everyone doing what you did here...the forum would be closed just like this thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=578575 ...read last few posts and it will be clear to you
isn't it sad, how human foolishness and selfishness can ruin other people's hope and efforts.
and do you really think that someone who had or has a solution for your problem wouldn't tell it to you in first place
Thanks a lots and i'm really sorry Bro, i just need a help cause i can't do it without'em ...
provide us a link...i'll help if i can

Bro, you can see it all the threads started by me that still not resolve yet...
And thanks before
wm 2003 had an option to backup everything...and that option went away with newer generations of wms,coming with newer devices because of the differences in chips and chipsets...
in wm 2002/03 you could loose all your data if your phone was long without battery,it isn't the case with newer devices,so you don't need a backup like that one
i believe you need something like "PIMbackup" which is the best backup app ever IMO,it can backup and restore contacts,messages,apointments,to do,tasks and any folder you choose...and it is free
as far as wm5/6/6.1/6.5 go...i had...i mean i still have an htc magician which also had 2003se,but the hardware just wasn't able to handle newer os ...or at least there wasn't much interest because the device was getting very old...as one guy said to you some time ago...some devices did receive updates ie himalaya...but mostly thanks to dedicated devs and it's hardware....i still have a himalaya which is working...although battery is pretty worn out
so you should stop expecting to successfully cook a rom for you HPs unless you are some kind of programing/win ce guru...
any other questions?

Nothing more question Bro, even i'm already have Atom and Prophet but i'm still hope or expecting for only just WM2003SE for my hp iPAQ h6365 (that still original WM2003) from XDA-Dev Programmers or WinCE Guru's if it still possible cause in my opinion that HTC Magician has succesfully jump to WM6.1 and WM6.5 by Russian ROM Cookers, so how come there's no one ROM Cookers would upgrade hp iPAQ h6365 to just WM2003SE or to WM5?
I need the last big help from you, please ask to Moderators to close this thread if it necessary cause i guess this is no longer usefull anymore ...
And thanks a lot's before!
not true,magician only got a skin that looks just like wm 5/6 but it still is 2003
