hello, I have a PNA AIRIS T920 with Windows CE NET 4.2 Core Edition.
I would like to change the system by a Windows CE more advanced or windows mobile but I do not know how to create the new rom.
I have an image of the original firmware and I know how to flash the device.
I need some help please

Hi @ll..
how can i found out the exactly Revision, Version, Build Version of any ROM?
i.e. with an Hexeditor..
i´m talking about a ROMs from an Artemis P3300 ..
i don´t want to flash all the files , to find out the version, who is listed in the System->Info Dialog
(Windows Mobile 6 Professional
CE OS XX.XX.XX (Build XX.XX.XX)
)
thanxx 2 all ;-)
Heard that this information is stored in the Registry...
Well, actually it`s stored in dsm files. dump the rom and look with package tool
I have a Magician, for which no leaked WM5/6 has ever been found. WM2003SE is the newest OS for this device.
I'm not new to cooking ROMs, porting XIPs, or OS, but converting a WM5 device to WM6.1 is cake compared to WM2003SE! Very much is so different!
It was previously my understanding that there are 2 main barriers:
1. Bootloader must be WM5 compatible.
2. XIP will need to be built with a new kernel.
Since WM5/6 are built on Windows CE 5.0 while WM2003SE is built on Windows CE 4.2, would all the info on Microsoft.com that talks about migrating from CE 4.2 to 5.0 apply to WM2003SE to WM6.1 as well?
For instance, their site says a CE 4.2 bootloader should work with CE 5.0. Would that mean the bootloader doesn't need to be changed for WM2003SE to 6.1?
Also, the kernel is completely different. Would it be theoretically possible to use Platform Builder to create a new CE 5.0 kernel using OEMInit from the old kernel?
Basically, is Platform Builder the correct tool for migrating all the device-specific files in the XIP?
I have a windows ce 4.2 device, a GPS device (NDRIVE G400). How can i change the rom to ce 5. or 6? where i find this rom's?
sorry my english ( i'm portuguese)!!!
every device manufacturer handle it differently
even windows mobile devices don't have a std way of
rom upgrade
sorry i am a bit of a beginner with all this but very confused. I want to upgrade my wm5 loox n500 with windows mobile 6 so i can run certain apps. I have read all the forums and i have downloaded the rom upgrades which say they will change my pda to wm6 - file appears to be os_122u.nbf. however after doing this which all appeared to go successfully my apps will still not run and it appears when i check that i am still on wm5
what am i doing wrong ? have i downloaded the wrong image / duff image ?
is there a dummy guide to upgrading the n500 anywhere ? is it the same for upgarde purposes as a n520 ?
any help appreciated
Craig
just by way of update after supposedly upgrading to wm6 it now says i am on version 5.1.464,
rom revision p224452-p919-v122
rom date 2006-09-20
bootloader revision 1.05
if this means anything to anybody ?
" 5.1.464"
== windows CE 5 which every windows mobile since wm5 have been build
on
where windows mobile 7 should use windows CE6
thanks Rude, just not sure how that helps me - or am i missing something ?
it gave you a version number to search if thats a 6.x version
another thing you can see is if you got threaded sms's it's one of the
few differences between wm6 wm5 apart from the glossy top panels

As far as I know most GPS devices are based on Microsoft Windows CE 5.0 Core it's like a small Windows with Start Menu, Desktop and so on, but this feature is locked down only to Navigation Software and Simple file browsing.
There is no final Windows CE6, only some RC versions.
Windows Mobile is also based on Windows CE, but that's a different OS tree.
Basically there is nothing You can do with the dump.
P.S. I think You mean Acer P610
