[Question] Native kernels and porting? - Windows Mobile Software Development

Apologies if this is a stupid question, but I am going to ask anyway!
With regards to nk.exe and the differences between the winmo 6.1 and 6.5 kernels, is it possible to port the 6.5 kernel with additional memory allocation to devices that dont currently have one available?
My reason for asking is that I currently am cooking for athena which doesnt have a native 6,5 kernel available.

You'd pretty much have to work for HTC to be able to do it.

Thought that might be the case, thanks for the quick reply.
Back to the drawing board then

Truly clean WM6 for Hermes?

I've seen all the different ROMs floating around, and very very cool. But, I'm wondering if there is one floating around for the Hermes that is pretty much bare bones? IE, just Office, and other stock Microsoft apps. No tweaking, no nothing. I know most of the WM6 ROMs floating around are pretty much like this, but I'm looking for one even less than that. Pretty much as pure vanilla as it can get.
No worries if not, just figured I'd throw it out there..
Thanks!

really depends on what you actually want the ROM to do... as the tweaks fix known problems... but the Vanilla ROM... in the above sticky is vanilla...

So is LVSW's one
I love the LVSW ROM, it's awesome. I needed to patch up a couple things, but thats the fun part of it, and it's expected with an unofficial ROM.

its not clean persay... it has registry changes and operator modifications by a certain operator
Hi,
I've just bought myself a Hermes to replace my Wizard and I've been keeping a close eye on the different WM6 roms available. I'm interested in the SIP calling via wifi function that WM6 offers but all the roms I've seen here uptill now seem to have been stripped of the function. Am I wrong in saying this ? Do any of the roms support SIP calling ?
Thanks

They all do but the function does not work at this time.
I would be more interested in trying for a really basic ROM if I thought it might give more access to more storage space on the device. But it doesn't appear that this is how it works. However, if that is your goal, there is a Black Edition ROM out there now that allows for more storage space (~57.4 total) instead of the normal ~47 or so...
I have a pretty bare bones WM6 rom if you would like to try it sk0t, it is designed specifically for Cingular/AT&T all settings and registry fixes are auto installed for it to work optimumly on Cingulars network. The auto installer does not install goodmail, expressmail, etc. Only the essentials.
the BLACK 1.2 rom is the cleanest of them all.
this can be argued because a screen capture utility and some very useful vj tools are installed, but other than that, a lot of redundant and old wm5 files that were left in there were cleaned up, hence ths smaller footprint.

screen capture utility and some very useful vj tools
Hi JasJamming
I have now installed your ROM, its very fast.. but in fact would prefer not to have the above utilities. I use a different screen capture, and do not require the VJ Tools at all. To make your ROM truly as clean as possible, please consider removing the screen capture utility and vj tools and allow us to choose to install via CAB files.
Your favorable reply to the above would be highly appreciated by your many fans around the world.
Thanks and Regards

Is it possible to install PIE from WM6.5 on the diamond WM6.1?

Just wonder if anyone managed to extract pocket internet explorer from the wm6.5 rom vga to wm6.1? I'm using a diamond gsm with a custom rom.
Thanks in advance to all
105 views and no answer?
Any idea anyone? I'm asking as I cannot find it anywhere? Is it even possible to run it on WM6.1?
dont know how to or if its possible but having been using various 6.5 roms over the past month or so i find PIE for 6.5 slow, unstable and has problems with the diamond keyboards.
Thanks

Yes you are right, just thought it might behave a little better as WM6.1. On the BsB WM6.5C rom it was not that bad. I was able to use it properly but because I need the device to be reliable I had to unistall WM6.5 until its official and ported to the diamond. I can see that it came out today so its not going to take that much longer i think!
Thanks for answering by the way.

Will we be able to use TF3D2.5 on Diamond

I see that htc have released a new version of Touch Flo 3D (version 2.5), which looks fantastic.
I would like to know if anyone believes that we will be able to get this to work on the Toch Diamond, or will I have to buy the htc Hero to benefit from this kind of interface ?
Regards
Chad
Well now it's being ported to VGA, it would probably eat up a lot of RAM but it probably would work.
Wow! It's already being ported?
How much ram compared with native Diamond manilla or yoz 2.1?
I think yoz 2.1 is already the limit that Diamond1 can have to be able to successful use more than one program at time or run a GPS program.

Firstly, Why is this thread in ROM development? I hardly think TF3D 2.5 has anything to do with Diamond ROMs... Come on guys... That and TF3D 2.6 has already been previewed.
In response to your questions flitzjoy how can we know? It's not on the Diamond yet. It's not ported to VGA. So we can't tell yet.
There is a port thread over in development and hacking... Please search before posting as your question/s are probably more likely to be and already answered over there.
2.5 is ugly, i hope no one takes the time to port that crap, would be etter off porting 2.6 when its stable
as much as i want a new version, i would never want them on the Diamond. It eats up too much RAM and between the porting and converting files, there are bounds to be an assload of problems.
Manila 2.5
There is manila 2.5 for Diamond! To Buggy for Daily use!

3VOLUTION SERIES ROMs - S620 and SNAP

Hi,
I was thinking to move from my S620 to Snap because I noticed that the development of 3VOLUTION ROMs ( and all the others ) are not going on.
What do you think about?
May we expect new Roms for our S620?
bye!
lebero
Agreed.
We need to see more 3volution roms for the Excalibur. Maybe based on the new 6.5.3 core.
same situation
I have update my s620 to the last 3vo rom available (fantastic!), and my idea is to wait to change the phone until WiMo7 will be described in details (you know, multitasking and so on...).
As of today, before moving from WiMo to Android, i'm happy to play with the Hexcalibur, and any new rom will be well accepted!
I ask to 3VOLUTION author
have you plannes new Roms for Excalibur?
thanks!
lebero
you guys don't realize what oOkBa went though to get that rom to run as smooth as it does now, on a device that's 4 years old, I was one of the first beta testers of the 3VO 6.5 from when it was 1.0, and now at 3.0 maybe he has reached a plateau where there's not much else he can use that's still compatible or that it works well on the excalibur.
Instead of making a new thread asking about it, why don't you ask in the proper rom thread or pm him about it, you might get an answer quicker that way.
Hey Roloracer,
Good point you made.
First let me BIG UP oOkba for his roms. I jus installed 3.0 runs ok but the camera dosent work, any ideas on a quick fix?
Thanks Again

Hi blackcsc
Yes it's reliable I have been using it for more than 2 weeks. but it is a bit slow due to processor. also the issue of delay sounds/ringtones, but that has been solved with in this forum.
