Am getting ready to start a couple of test development projects on my
Windows Mobile 5.0 device.
First question - is there support anywhere for additional language packs?
This is a WM5.0 ROM 1.6.7.1 WWE device (Qtek 9100 - HTC - Wizard).
Or does WM5 require regional versions to be installed for language support in that region?
Would also be greatful for a brief explanation of the WM5.0 lineage.
Is Windows Mobile 5.0 - really a Pocket PC Phone edition?
What flavor of Windows do Smart Phones use?
Does Windows CE still exist?
Any help or info greatly appreciated.
Hi, Waters.
Here are some brief answers in order, hope they help:
1. On WM systems installing support for other languages is tricky so if you don't have a device with local ROM you will have to pay for and install special software. One company I know that does a lot of localization is Paragon ( www.penreader.com )
2. WM5 – Windows Mobile 2005 the latest version of OS for PPC platform, preceded by WM 2003 (4.2, 4.21 second edition – VGA support) and WM 2002 (3.0) etc.
3. All WM versions come in both regular and phone edition, WM5 is no different. The phone edition simply has the extra support for phone integrated devices, like drivers, dialer programs, etc.
4. Smart phones use WM for smart phones which differs form the PPC version by its shell (no touch screen) and tougher security.
5. Win CE most definitely exists, in fact Windows Mobile 5 is a derivative of CE 5 designed for PPC devices. There are other devices like nav consoles for cars that use win CE in either pure or custom tailored form.
Good luck with your projects! 8)

I need some help to understand the way Microsoft is numbering Windows Mobile 6.1.
We usually see for WM6.1 numbers like for exemple OS 5.2.19971 B.19971.1.2.6.
5.2 seems to be some sort of internal and official version number for wm6.1 and 19971 to be the build number.
Then there is an obscur 1.2.6 (is it a sub-build number ?).
Moreover regarding the HyperDragon Roms each new version does not always follow a growing build number (from Oct. 22th the wm6.1 base build numbers were in the order 19581.1.1.1, 19212.1.0.3, 20757.1.4.0, 19974.1.2.8, 19974.1.2.8 and then now 19971.1.2.6
I understand the HyperDragon Rom depend of the initial phone extract (blackstone, jade, opal...) but how to choose the best one ?
Last question, I'm looking for the Windows Mobile 6.1.4 version because it is supposed to solve a big issue regarding the SMTP use in Pocket Outlook . But how to recognize a 6.1.4 version (base on a particular build or other usual numbering).
Thanks for your great help.
Can i put Micro SDHC 4 GB (class 4) in my TyTN P4500?
Is this memory card supported by my phone?
Thanx!
Yes, but only if you have a WM6 ROM. Also, you won't be able to flash ROMs from this card, as the bootloader can't work with SDHC cards.
I have a 16 GB SDHC with a 6.1 ROM and it works nearly flawless.
hm... if i have Windows mobile 6 does it mean that i already have WM6 ROM?
because i have Windows Mobile 6 on my HTC but in Device Information it says that ROM version is 3.54.255.3?!
is there any relationship between Windows version and ROM version??
You need a windows mobile 6.1 or above as far as I know.
I'm currently using tai sw v13 6.5 rom with an 8 gigabyte sdhc card, and it works flawlessly.
Windows version rom version?
"if i have Windows mobile 6 does it mean that i already have WM6 ROM?"
Yes, that is exactly what it means.
"because i have Windows Mobile 6 on my HTC but in Device Information it says that ROM version is 3.54.255.3?"
You have windows mobile 6 with AKU (Adaption Kit Updates) 3.54.255.3
Microsoft releases patches as Adaption Kit Updates (AKUs) . Normally AKUs are used to provide patches however Microsoft has decided to include new features with them. Microsoft only releases AKUs to OEMs. It is up to each OEM to decide whether or not to offer an upgrade which includes AKUs for it�s customers.
If you need to know more just ask here or search in the forums.
Ok. Thanks a lot.
Please where can i get my htc P4500 herm200 english rom or how can i change from german to english? Thanks
HI
I am new to flashing ROM of my phone and like to give it a try. I am very comfortable with computers and systems administration.
I have a Cingular 8525 that I got a from a friend. Right now I am looking at the About screen and it is showing me:
Windows Mobile 6 professional
CE OS 5.2.1622 (build 18128.0.4.4)
Are the ROMs that I can get through this site any more advanced (updated) than what I have?
I looked at this site but the version numbers are not telling me anything and they are so different than what version is on my phone.
Hermes_Upgrades on XDA wiki.
Thanks

You tell me, what version of wm do you have...
And yes, we now have WM6.1 and 6.5 available...
where do i find the rom for 6.5?
I have not been able to find 6.5.
thanks
Go to the rom development section for the hermes, there are many, many roms.
none of the 6.1 or 6.5 roms are official, they are all cooked, so you will have to try many of them to decide what fits you best.
