Clean version of WM 6.1. How to go into Serial Mode? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Okay so I have some newbie questions that are probably stupid questions to ask but here goes anyway...
Is there a way to get a clean uncooked version of WM 6.1? Do cooked ROMs work with any WM 6.1 phone or are there hardware specific settings in each ROM which would require you to use a cooked ROM of your specific phone's model in order to work right?
I can usually understand the technical aspect of most things but this whole ROM cooking thing seems like such a higher level of technicality than I am capable of really understanding. I tried following some of the tutorials but I just get lost.
And for the noob of newbie questions... I don't know how to get my phone to go into "serial" mode. When I connect my phone to my computer using my USB cable, the phone asks if I want to go into "Storage Card" mode or "ActiveSync" mode... no serial mode option. When the phone is off and I connect it, it just starts up and loads WM 6.1 to get me to that same ActiveSync/Storage Card screen.
And lastly, everyone is going probably going to jump down my throat about this but... I have a Chinese phone called a Ciphone C5. I love the WM 6.1 OS but I'm still trying to figure it out. Here's the specs:
Model: Ciphone C5
Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
ROM Version: 01.001.1 CHS
ROM Date: 3/24/2009
Processor: 450 MHz Samsung 2443C
Don't know if that helps anyone, but any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated by me. Thanks,
-David

Yes i am

Thats very Nice
Would you share your Know How with me ??
I am Still not able to build and then rebuild it.
The rebuild new Ciphone.Bin is always smaller than the old one.
And the Flashprogramm does not accept it for loading to the Ciphone C6
I think there are some parts missing after rebuilding. But I don't know at witch step there is the failure.
Please give me the parameters to use OSNBTOOL in the right way.

Unlocking IMGFS or ROM volumes

On a Gigabyte G-Smart.
Please forgive me, I realize that this forum is for XDA / HTC devices only, but I thought that with the wealth of knowledge on this board, somebody might have a quick solution to the proposed problem.
I am trying to create an "extended_rom" like solution on my Gigabyte, where files automatically get installed when a hard reset is done.
Any help our suggestions would be appreciated, although I realize this is not the focus of this board.
Thanks!
Wow , you have a gigabyte g-smart ?
can you please tell me wath is this rom version and can you realize a dump.bin with Grabbit software ?
Thanks a bunch for the reply...
Yeah, I have one. I have not been able to get the bin off of it, but I am using stuff that I wrote. Might have to grab something out there that is a bit more robust. The stuff I wrote works fine on HTC and HP stuff, but just seems to want to die on the Gigabyte. I am not suprised at this...
As for the ROM version, there is no Asset Viewer on the device, so the only version numbers I have gotten for the WHOLE DEVICE are as follows:
Windows Mobile Version 5.0 OS 5.1.195 (Build 1429.2.2.1) (Version of WM5, obviously)
The only other version that is readily available without poking through the entire registry is V1.08.12 assigned to the device by Gigabyte (Device Name: Pocket_PC Description: V1.08.12).
I am trying to find more information on the versions of the radio ROM as well as trying to be able to write to \IMGFS and/or \ROM...
Let me try to get the bin off of the device. Will try someone elses stuff now.
wow , 1.0812 ... very very interesting ...
Why don't you wan't to use grabbit software ??
it just make a file called dump.bin on your sdcard ....
youhave just to make a directory called 2577 on your sdcard , put grabbit.exe on it and rename to autorun.exe after that , put your sdcard on gigabyte and that's fun ....
It's not that I don't WANT to use grabbit.exe, it's that I don't HAVE grabbit.exe... and I have a rom dump program that I wrote that works on other devices.
Do you have a link to grabbit.exe? Quick search of this forum doesn't come up with anything when I search on "grabbit"...
Thanks!
EDITED TO SAY: Heh... found it... did a search on "grab_it" and found all of them. I will give it a try. Thanks!
wow cool !!!!
if you want , i can make an ftp for you or can you please upload your dump.bin in this ftp ...
i've a g-smart dump , but this is tha 1.05.20 ....
theoretically you can use my imgfs tools to edit ROM image. But you'll need a program that can update ROM, and create file in format that it understands.
yes mamaich , i've a dump.bin created with grab_it of a g-smart(1.05.20) and your tools works like a charm !!!!
Thanks so much for the suggestion!
mamaich, would you be able to post a link to the imgfs editor that you have? Or, I could just search for it on the forum. I actually think that I have it...
I have the bin file, will upload it soon.

Hi mates,
i have an i-teq BOND aka Gigabyte g-smart. It has rom v1.10.18 and is working very bad, absolut bad.
Is there any other rom (english) than this 1.05.13 that you are talking about.
Thanks.
I ave the i-Teq Bond as well with the similar crappy update and no old ROM.
The gigabyte ROMs are all in taiwanese or something like that, so not much use. :?
Anybody has i-Teq or Gigabyte gsmart ROM in English? :?:
Sjengie
I have a Gigabyte G-Smart with 1.08.12 English ROM. There are some issues with it and I'm looking for later firmware or a place to look for it.
There's so many different versions quoted on this thread that I'm unsure if I have the latest English ROM or whether there is something newer.
Can anyone summarise the versions out there?
wow fasteye ...
can you please dump your rom with grab_it and upload here ?
the 1.08.12 is the last , i think ... is the ansewr machine work ?
I don't have the grabit software. If someone is willing to provide a link to it then I'll give it a go.
This firmware is not great though hence I'm keen to find something better.
Without doubt the best Pocket PC phone I've used in terms of design and size just a pity that the firmware and battery are not better. TV and FM Radio don't seem to work in the UK.
Anyone know if there is any way to get T9 on it?

htc s620 startup

is there a way to put a startup sound on s620 just like a windows xp ?
i've never been able to add just startup sounds without also adding a 3rd startup splash screen, but i created a .cab ( with some other necessary registry tweaks) to add startup&shutdown sounds and splash screens. go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396273
!!!!
this .... doesent work.
"Installation of PDG_Startup-Shutdown.cab was unsuccessful."
now what ?
what ROM are you using? sorry i always assume people here are using the WM 6.1 cooked ROMS and not one of the official WM 6 or WM5 official ROMS. the .cab was built around the WM 6.1 ROM. secondly, if it isn't one of the WM 6.1 ROMs , is your phone application unlocked?

seems like you are pretty ignorant at searching and finding out what needs to be done to get the situation handled. That is not a problem, but your "something something that starts with "k" dont know the rest.." isnt going to assist in someone helping you.
Get your proper information gathered then come and ask for help.

i907(epix) rom dump done, build and upgrade thinking

there is a offical release rom upgrade for samsung i907, it is a exe file.
杖剑天涯 from xbeta tried it , and get the nb0. I have get the dump files.
Just use a file osnbtool.exe, which is wrritten by Weisun from pdaclan.com.
Rename the exe a simple short name like Samsung.exe
then run the following in DOS mode.
osnbtool -sp Samsung.exe
osnbtool -sp Samsung.exe.BIN.NB0
osnbtool -d Samsung.exe.BIN.NB0.OS.NB 1 xip.bin
osnbtool -d Samsung.exe.BIN.NB0.OS.NB 2 imgfs.bin
the rest work is just kitchen work.
the next thing is build and test it.
flash the rom is another difficulty. the pda part could be flashed separately would be better , just like the i617.
BTW: osnbtool is a so powerful tool. I hope more people can use it. and it is from China.
Is it WM61 or WM65?
wm6.1 20276. of course you can port to wm6.5 , if it can be flashed to the device.

Sweet! Sounds like there's finally some progress in the Epix updating. It's got a lot of potential. Hopefully the chefs out there can make use of this and get something lean and mean cooking.
Thanks for your help!
this is awesome news.. finally a step forward hope the chefs are hard at work its always appreciated
YAY!
progress!!!! finally... so how would that be ported to a wm6.5 rom? ima noob with this stuff

Asus A696 Upgrade to 6.1 or 6.5

Hey,
I tried to upgrade my Asus A696 to a new version but no luck (i'm not that good at this kind of stuff), so my question is if there's a way to upgrade it at least to WM 6.1, or 6.5 using a different ROM version or something like that.
I would appreciate if the following answers would be from people who tried this before.
PS: If there are links (here) where i can find steps to upgrade, i would be grateful if you point them out.
Regards
I'd like to do this as well. I second the request for help and I'd very much like to know if you are able to do this .
Thanks very much,
PM
I sign for that too - I would to install WM6.5
It will be soon, I have working version wm6.1 PLK (21109), but it's just my second build. I don't have this device, so I can't do it quickly.

It's not a mistake. For example WM6.5 on HP iPAQ hx2000 series runs much faster then WM6.1
I would suggest You to go for WM6.5
that's my opinion, I don't like chome, honeycomb, new big menus, manila and other kind of sh%t.
But if you like it, you can use it. I don't prohibit it
any news about it? I would like to install 6.1 or 6.5 also on my a696
Was amazed to find a ASUS P527 6.5 upgrade on here the other day, being able to upgrade the A696 would be awesome as well .
So if there is anyone listening out there, please, please
Thanks,
Peter

Thanks for your reply, I downloaded and took a look - but I've never done anything like this before, I don't know where to begin. The fact that anything I make with this would be Polish (?) - I'm out of my league. Maybe I'll see if I can figure out the P527 where they do have a World Wide English version already and see what can be done with that.
The P527 has a bunch of ways to upgrade through USB and microSD even if the main process fails - I have no idea if there is such a method for the A696 though. If a flash fails, that could be it... and that's a little bit daunting for a first timer...
Thanks,
Peter
you can make image backup first.
pdocread –v 0x0 0x3600000 nk.nb0
upgrade is simply, by usbloader.
1. Disable usb connections in async
2. plug usb cable to pda
3. reset pda with center dpad button pressed.
4. USB Download mode screen will appear
5. Click "Upload ROM!" in kitchen.
can anybody please create and upload the wwe version? It's just that I don't understand Polish so the PLK is completely useless to me (and I guess others)

Yes, I can try, but not so fast.
Well, I am subscribed to this thread so just tell me when you have something ready. I will be waiting
I too would like a WWE version of a 6.1 or 6.5 ROM for the Asus 6x6 series devices... I would be willing to do some testing as well. I would also be willing to make a donation to whomever gets a 6.5 ROM working.

[Q] Can you make a kitchen for build 21057&

Hello all!
My cooking skill is too low for building rom based on build 21057 for HTC Trinity. May you (community) help me with this? I want wm 6.1 21057 for my p3600, i'm trying some times to *cook* this, and all times i'm get black screen or non-bootable device. Can anybody make this for me?
Hello destruct0r,
i´ve same problem. I try cooking an another Build but i think it´s same problem.
My steps i choose:
1. Dump last rom in OSKithcen-> RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.00.707.18_6275_1.46.30.11_108_Ship
2. import an rollup
3. change some settings (but i think i don´t know the right settings)
4. cook it
5. and flash (but it stops at 0%)
What is wrong? Can anyone help us? pls
Sorry, language isn´t good,but i try!
Hey guys,
I have not been very active on here for a while, but I just noticed your posts. Here is a completely stock OEM Kitchen with 17944 as it's SYS, and then I've imported 21057 into it also. You can open both working versions using the Open Project button. It's using osKitchen Zero.
I have not added any extra packages or modified anything, it's just straight. I also won't have a lot of time to invest in helping, but this should be a good stepping off point to start from.
I'll try to monitor this thread a little bit, but like I said, I cannot give much time at the moment.
I just flashed 21057 to my Trinity, and I have to admit, it runs pretty darn good. It has around 25MB Free Memory and 34.5MB Free Storage. If you use LZX compression when cooking, storage should increase a bit.
DOWNLOAD
You will find the Kitchen (2 Parts) and a fully working 21057 in case you want to try it first. The Kitchen is a self extracting file, Run Part 1, and the ROM is a Self Extracting and easy to flash file. Just put your phone into BootLoader Mode and double click the download, then follow the instructions.
Trinity runs a lot much better with 6.1 roms. I'll give it a try SuperSport.

Good luck, and let me know if you find any errors.
I've tested and it's very fast.
Things that i would remove:
Get started
Windows Update
Zip ?
MIDlet Manager ? (don't know what it is)
Things that i would add:
Fingerkeyboard 2.1 (installed myself)
Google maps
Connection setup
1% battery meter
No bugs found yet.
I'll tell you about the battery performance during the weekend.
What about you folks?

Thank you for your input PapaJasy.
ZIP is actually for Zip and Unzip of files.
Midlet is for Java Applets
Those both are part of the Stock ROM, so I left them there.
That ROM I posted was more for proof of concept, and not necessarily one I figure anyone would use full time, although you can. I just wanted to be sure it would flash and run and hopefully be bug free so people could take the Kitchen and work from it. At this point, if anyone likes the basics of the ROM, I've also posted the Kitchen so it can be modified any way the user likes.
Again, thank you for your input.
I've downloaded the kitchen and i don't understand much of it. I'll see some tutorials including yours and make a final rom for me haha.
Damn this is fast!
Thanks!
Thanks so much!!!

Can you send me a download link to the Roll-Up you are trying to import? I will try to create a Video Tutorial showing how to import it.
The Wi-Fi error I am not seeing on my phone. When I turn it on, it immediately asks to hook to my home network. Does it work if you go to Start, Settings, Connections, Wi-Fi, Menu, Turn ON Wi-Fi?
PS: Your language is fine. I understand you very well, much better than some.

I am impressed that you did the WiFi fix. It can be a bit difficult, but you did it without asking how. Good Job!
I'm downloading the Roll-Up you linked to now and will get a video shortly. I'll post a link to it here when it's complete.
EDIT: Ok, I ran into the same problem as you did. The Kitchen imported the Roll-Up just fine, but when I tried to build a ROM, it would only show 0409. What I noticed is that in the OEM packages, there is one called 'OEM_Lang_0409'. When I make a copy of this package, but rename it to 'OEM_Lang_0408', it now shows two languages available to cook. The problem is that the package is still 0409, but I only changed the name. I don't know what would happen if it cooked that way, maybe it would be ok, or maybe there would be english mixed all through the ROM? I'll be giving it a try and report back...
Hello Supersport,
I´ve writen my last exam in Informatics (second semester), so I can concentrate one's energy on cooking an Trinity Rom. Have you good new´s for me? Oh, sorry first, thanks for supporting me! I hope you have good news. ;-)

I have not cooked in a while. I want to get back to it, but a lot has been happening in my personal life. For the time being, I've been enjoying my Samsung Focus WP7 with Mango. Cooking takes more brain power and time than I have been able to give it lately. I'll be back.
