iPAQ 91x new ROM plans - Sable

Hi all,
Sorry I've been away on a kind of post-graduation hiatus. I have a few remaining commitments this summer that will keep me busy, but I intend to update my released ROMs as follows:
1. Use latest OEM updates from HP's May 2009 official update.
2. WM6.1: update a few apps, remove a few, and switch .NET CF back to 2.0
3. WM6.5: update SYS to build 21725.
4. Scale back "motherload" packages to a standard release setup, "BR ROM"
I can't promise delivery times on this stuff, but if anybody has additional suggestions for the ROMs or new info, I'm happy to hear from them.
Thanks,
-Ben

thank you !!! waiting for your new rom !!!!

I am glad to see your post here.
I am looking forward to meeting new ROM.

hey welcome back, i wonder why you would switch .net cf to 2.0? any issue with .net cf 3.5?

Hi bro nice to see you back again. now our 9x series will rock actually bro its great if you use latest HP update with you own stuff. so basically u have to make something fast and stable. by including useful apps. like
task manager with corner icon on today for closing apps easily. and some other major stuff which is important. you can see some Roms stuff of HTC WIZARD or any other and then compare it with ur Roms. and u can make fully loaded roms as well as light versions as well. as u know ur the best cooker. so wish u good luck.
just try to fix some minor bugs in HP Roms for 9x..
Take care..
Regards

T_T what a touching moment~ god Ben is finally back to us^^
i just got wm reminder today says "the copy of your wm6.5 software is expiring with 30 days, on 1st of july"...... so is that means m$ is pushing us to flash new rom before july, lol~
so far, the 21500 rom seems quite stable on the device, so just keep everything cool~
one small question: how can make the VoiceCMD button back to working (not the software, just the button, i love to assign it as 'task manager')
so, thank you so much Ben in advance, take your time (one month should be enough)
i'll check this post frequently

Hi
im also one of the users that looks for the lightest rom
Anyway if I may suggest something I always wanted to do (maybe one day I will)
but you can be the first to do so
Mega light Rom
First I will explain something I used to call "HR installation"
On the 64mb ram devices I used to save memory (rom and ram) by installing all apps to storage card
then HR my device
and then for every installed app make a shortcut from the "storage card/program file/app-name.exe" to "windows/start menu/programs" (copy exe and paste "shortcut to…" )
any app you have/add in your rom will take device memory
most apps can work directly from storage card (not apps with plugins)
what I'm suggesting is for you to install all the apps you want to the card
then hr your device and make all exe shortcuts of the apps
Cook only the shortcuts into the rom
now you make your rom clean with no apps
the apps that must have plugins can be cooked into the rom or be given as a cab file
(most apps can be found as a cab on xda)
MS office
not all users use MS office on there WM device
MS has issued office 6.1 as an update that can be installed to the card
(I have the cab for wm5 devices)
So you can issue it as a cab only or using the "HR Installation"
But if you use the HR installation for office you must assign all doc/docx to this exe (by using this freeware
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-openwith-v0-1.html
or resco explorer)
What will happen?
when you issue your rom you will give the
1 the clean rom
2 the "program file" folder of your storage card
3 cabs folder
What will the user do?
1 install your rom
2 copy your "program file" folder into the storage card
3 tap on the shortcut he wants from the program screen
(If he doesn't tap on the shortcut it is as if he didn’t install)
This way you can add a lot of apps option but rom will be light and every user will decide what he wants only by tapping on the shortcut
This way of installing is a lot lighter then full installation
Can be improved
You can also add a link (ink) for the file explorer called "shortcuts manager " that will be located "windows/start menu/programs" and will point the file explorer directly to windows/start menu/programs
By tapping on "shortcuts manager" icon the user will be directly where unused shortcuts can be deleted
Such rom will be the lightest and I think the fastest

nice.. can't wait for the update.

well bro also u can use some latest apps in roms. like facebook windows live . some nice task manager. some other tweaking tools mostly used in other devices. so the best is to check some other devices rom postings to get more knowledge of apps and users requirements.
some battery fixes . some registry fixes and tweaking.
specially for most common uses like phone and sms or mms. which need perfection.
and best of luck. i know u will do great job. U ROCK

You do some great work around here. I've only been here for a short while with my 910c... but already your threads have been time and/or life savers...!
A suggestion - I don't know if it's possible, but there are a few registry tweaks around that help increase battery life on the 91x series (see other threads for info). It might be worth while to try and incorporate those into a ROM. I've already manually fixed mine... but a ROM that did it from the start would be golden!

Any news?
Any news on the new ROM?
July the 1st is approaching and I'm getting worried about having my Ipaq 914c blocked
Thanks again

ROMkitchen are out of date..... Who wants to change????

Hello XDA users....
I think you know it all, that the ROMkitchen is a fine application to get our device nearly perfect.
But the ROMkitchen is out of date. This means many applications aren´t not in the actual version. Therefore Auburnham and I thought to update the applications.
The problem is, that the amount of added applications to the kitchen is to big to make this happen by us two. Because of this problem I´m searching for some people, which wants to help.
Another problem is, that you need for this a device that haven´t got installed that piece of software. This means that when you want to help me with Phonext for example, you must have a device without any version of Phonext installed.
So, if you are going to help me make a snapshot of your device with the ssnap - Application.
Install the software.
Make again an Snapshot of your device with the ssnap - Application.
Send these two files to [email protected] with inforamtion about the program you have installed and the exact Version you have installed.
When I´ve got analyzed the two files i will reply to you with a wishlist of files that have been created on your device. After sending me the files, i can update the kitchen....
IF there are any quesions or anything else, feel free to contact me....
Regards
Stefan
Good Idea :
I'd be happy to contribute.
Tell me which application you want me to install and I'll do it provided that I find the procedure (that I've seen being posted elsewere in this forum).
NB : I'm using XDA I with a Frenchy 3.16 and be stuck with it :evil: ; so there is no chance for me to re-build a new a geniun 3.16 Rom again.
My XDA is all up and running.
I've overcome my Language FRA error message after purchasing a SD card reader and loading the ROM through the bootloader. 8)
Now, I'm about to install ttn 3 on my XDA. Do you want list it in your kitchen ?
What do you need exactly ?
I would be happpy to help. I am a regular user of your site and appreciate the effort that has been put into it.
I understand the effort needed to keep things working and up to date.
Pierre
I'm in!!
Just let me know what you need and when and I will maker every endevour to help.
Thanks for all you do

I don't want to make this any more complicated than it is, but for some programs, it just doesn't make any sense to install to the XDA memory. Most of the media players and "Misc" programs just take up too much unnecessary device memory when they would work just as well on the SD Card (if that's available).
The problem is that those huge programs require just a few small files to be placed on the device itself. So after installing a few of these types of programs, you've used up a lot of device memory from these small files, even though you installed the program to your SD Card.
Is there a way to alter the kitchen a bit to allow cooking of the necessary device files only, and allow the user to later install the program to the SD Card (being careful not to overwrite the files in ROM with files in RAM)?
For instance, with the TomTom program, if you start with a clean ROM and SD card, take a snapshot, then install the program to your SD card, then take another snapshot, you could determine what files need to be on the device, and what files don't need to be on the device, and allow users to either cook the entire program or just the necessary files in the ROM. (Note: This is a good example of a run-on sentence). Would this be a difficult feature to add to the kitchen?

Maybe the esiest Option is adding a new Select Point for the kitchen like "misc", "System Tools", "Phone" ....
This means having the programs double in the kitchen, but how cares.
I don't know exactly, but when you install a program to the SD-Card, could you select the part where to place it?
If yes, this could be a big problem. Many of the programs store the path in the registry.
If no, i could also provide a ZIP-file, where the rest of the programfiles are in, hust to unzip to the Storagecard.....

I believe this really depends on (1) how well the program was written, and (2) if you can install the program with CabInst (i.e. has a cab installation).
For example, I try to keep my SD Card organized and tidy so if I use CabInst I install the program to an appropriate folder on the SD Card. If I have to install the program from the desktop, I install the program to the SD Card root, then try to move the program to an appropriate folder and update the shortcut. Most of the time this works without even changing any registry entries, but sometimes it doesn't. Two examples from the above list of applications are AOL Instant Messenger 2.0 and Pocketmind PocketMusic 3.0. To function correctly, they both need to be in their original installation folders on the SD Card.
But perhaps the best solution would be to have an associated .zip file to go on the SD Card, as you suggested.
Shawn
Now the kitchen should be up 2 date again.
Only missing is PocketConsole and the Part "Software that needs to register"
So happy cooking and again Thx a lot to all users that helped me.....
Stefan
A Windows-way for cooking a ROM would be great for two reasons: 1) Don't hassle your server with lots of traffic and 2) Practical. Advanced users could cook a ROM without having a PC with Unix.
For example I tried cooking the Spanish version of the ROM and not all the programs I chose were installed and the worst thing is that the boot logo was just garbage, it was showing program code on the screen as a logo

Marton

Ok. Fixed the problem with the bootscreen.....
Tried also adding as much application, and all have been installed.
Can you tell me, what files / programs are missing?
No one else told me that there have been a problem wirth this ROM. I think it's because of the situation that most of the useres are using WM2003 ROMS....
You can also use the kitchen under "Windows" just have to set up a Cyguin environment on your system....
Also i didn't know how many Kitchen's are implemented by other users, but mine one is the only "official". You can't believe that everyone would be able to set it up.......
Stefan
Thanks Stefan!!!!!!
Now it seems to work but if EzWAP is selected, it throws a Log error when trying to cook...
Cheers,
Marton
P.S.: Do you know if a Spanish WM2003 exists?
Edit: This is the error:
Cannot fit files in given sections
Error splitting files
Just cooked a ROM... I selected the "Windows Mobile XDA" Boot Screen and now it is not garbage anymore but now it shows mirrored and upside down...
Any ideas?

Also what is each 1 for,Thanks
I'm trying to find out the same thing. Hope someone can help.
Default_Backkeysound_RC10
Installs a MIDI file for Back Key
Default_Caller_ID_WWE_RC10
This is the Caller ID application (consumes memory, but necessary if you want pictures pop up when ppl call you)
Default_Delete_vdisk
Not sure about this one!
Default_imateV1.00.10
Installs the imate splash screen, plus some other imate visual customisations.
Default_JMM101257_wwe_1004
JAVA patch - Recomended to install
Default_KSE_Fax_v2.09_unremovable
TrueFax software, allowing you to send/recieve faxes - Consumes lots of memory.
Default_MMS_V2.0.0.16_WWE_1115
MMS patch. Without it MMS will not work properly!
Default_Patch_103_3
Not sure about this one. Name suggests it includes patches for the 1.03 ROM version. I would install it.
Default_Phonepad_WWE_RC10

What exactly is "back key"?
Just to complete:
Default_Delete_vdisk
Just makes the extended_rom invisible again.
Default_Patch_103_3
I've heard it updates the battery, radio and some other internals. Unless you have a problem I don't see the need - you can't shift this stuff from \windows so it will eat memory. Personally I'm just going to wait for the latest ROM update, then the above wll be out of date.
Default_Version_WWE_103143.sa
Updates some registry info, no practical effect that I know of.
Can't run LoadVDisk.exe
I can't run LoadVDisk.exe with my Mini, I can see the file but it won't run.
Is it locked ?
Or should I make changes with registry first ?
Thanks
Great thanks alot guys

You simply click on it! It doesn't display any message. Then you can access the extended_ROM...!!
Thanks guys great help. I personally did not install anything and my phone works still. Even without the patches. I will probably wait for rom update as well.

Automating Program Installs

Hey all,
I have a question.
I have been playing with my 8125 a lot lately and am constantly resetting my device. What I want to know is I have one main machine that I do all my application installs via active sync that way when I hard reset my device I just have to go to add remove programs in active sync and re-check all the programs I want to put back on my phone.
Here is what I want.
I don’t want to have to tell the phone where to install the applications (I want it to default to storage card without any prompts.) and.. I don’t want any confirmation prompts ie: security unsigned, approve this application to be installed, this application was installed properly… etc.. I want to streamline the process so I can just tick the check boxes for my apps, let them download and that’s it. Currently after refreshing I have to spend quite a bit of time clicking “ok” … storage card…. Ok… storage card… ok… I think you get it.
Thanks much!
I've seen a lot of different reg keys out there that may accomplis this. Is there a way to disable the notifications and pre-set the install path peramaters?

You can do this with WinCE Cab manager
If you really reset your device that often why don't you use SPB BACKUP? A reinstallation of all your apps wouldn't be necessary - just load your backup and you're ready to go!
Ya I did think of that but here is my issue.
the reason I am constantly hard reseting is because I am changing and playing with roms pretty much on a daily basis. I've been cooking my own roms trying to come up with what works best for me and what is closest to RTM. Thus why I am always re-installing apps.
So if I use SPB backup (which I have) it saves system settings and such right? So if I am switching roms all the time will it break my device?
Thanks guys! I'm new to the forum here I just got my first PPC phone a couple weeks ago but I've been an avid windows mobile (smartphone) user for years and have worked on WM platforms as beta tester.
Gotta love this stuff!!!

Yes you are exactly right, and so many people seem to miss this... Spb Backup, Sprite Backup, etc are full backups that backup and restore the registry and all. If you restore this from one rom to a different rom you are likely to break something (may not be obvious at first, but you have a very good chance of things being broken inside the registry that you will trip up on at some point).
So yeah, the only way around this (without building your own extended rom and such) is to create a folder (or set of folders) on your SD card with all the cabs, files, and settings that you need for when your flash a new rom. Then run through that to set things up. You can also use ActiveSync to reinstall apps (just check them all and it will put them all back on) but you have to remember which ones (if any) require a reset of your device as that can cause probs with the others that are installing (if all done together).
Yep,
but at least you can import contacts, email and pim data that way quite easy!
Since you continiously flash your device: there will be no other solution but reinstalling your applications again and again. You might want to look around for a CAB extractor and then create your own CABs with all the progs you would like to have in one large CAB ???
One such CAB Installer Creator is: WinCE CAB Manager
Take a closer look at MolskiBiz_DevPack and you will find a utility to extract CAB files. It will be a bit work to add all the registry values to the Installer you're going to create but finally you might save a lot of time since you only run 1 installation instead of xxx ...
This is good, I have been playing with wince cab and it is a solution.
Now I'm going to work on making my extended roms.. will this work? I did a full recover of my apps through active sync just an hour or two ago and it reported total size of all cabs as just over 112megs. That means I'd be flashing a MONSTER rom and would it even be possible?
2gig mini SD card.
thanks
I tried before to add some apps (cab installers) to a personalized extended rom but it never worked the way I wanted it to. You might have seen that you always have to give some inputs when ever you install programs, sometimes you get ask if you really want to install the app, sometimes you need to choose a location. So, if you add CAB installers UNCHANGED to the extended ROM it just won't install because during extended rom installation you have no way of providing that information.

Schaps rom issue :S

i have a mda vario II , its at wm6 now, with a basic rom, i want to update it to the schaps rom, because the things i hear about are really good, i want to try it, 3 questions
1 do i lose my data, (sms data, contacts enz)
2 can something happen so my phone wont work anymore?
3 where can i download the newest dutch schaps rom
my english is not that good, im dutch....
oh yea, another question, do you get your garantee if you send it back to tmobile?
1. yes
2. possible - install hard SPL V7 1st to reduce risk.
3. Do a search to find if its available.
No, you need to put the Stock rom and SPL back on.
thanks for your answers, but can i make a backup with spb backup for example?
and do my programs on the sd micro card still work?
Yes, just don't format the card. Leave it as is and everything should install as it was before. I know SPB backup has 5 trial backup/restores so you may be able to try it without purchase (I have a licenced copy so I don't know if any limitations have been imposed other than the 5 trial backups).
Cheers...
Not to discourage you at all but schapps roms are fairly old now, if you look in the WM06 part of the Hermes forum you'll find some newer roms. Read the description to find out if you like it, then the last few pages to see any problems with and fixes available.
i have schaps installed now, its really great, but it can be done better in my opinion, which custom rom do you recommend me?
I use PDAViet V27 at the moment but also like PDACorner. Roms are a personal choice though, depends what you want it for, how much extra stuff you want in it and how fast you want it to run.
The I said are WM6.1. They are pretty good for me but depending on the 3rd party apps, I found, can become unstable when the apps are installed together.
I use SPBbackup 2.0.1 so if something does go wrong I can re-install a lot of stuff without a great deal of time being spent.
Cheers...
i use spb backup too, but now my programs that i first installed arent in my programs tab, and on my phone by programmabestanden (dutch for programfiles) i can start it tough
If the apps are in you programs filke on the sd card, use Resco explorer or total commander to create shortcuts of the .exe in the windows directory. windows>start menu>programs. Then they'll appear in the programs director of your phone.
For Resco it says "startmenu as shortcut", I have to move the shortcut manually to the programs directory or soft reset will do the trick too.
Cheers...

[ROM][29-Oct] WM6.5 Rom 23016 WWE cruiserrr [Lite and XDA builds]

430 downloads of the diff versions uploaded so far !!!!!
Hi, I finally decided myself to learn how to cook. Thanks to swtos and pcarvalho for their roms and specially thanks to gullum for sharing his wm6.5 kitchen. Since he published it, the polaris section has seen quite a few new cookers. Thanks also to Bluemetalaxe for the Icons and a general thanks to all the xda contributors (TMC, 6gf8's PowerRadio, XDA_UC, bl05, ervius's kitchen and tools...). It is being a lot of fun so far !
It is may first ROM ever, I recommend the ROM to anybody using wm6 or even wm6.1, people with slow devices, people with big thumbs and people with lots of programs. How does it compare to other ROMs? No Manilla oriented, it is rather focused on how to keep the machine clean and fast while having efficient navigation to lots of programs (many programs can be installed silently without leaving duplicate files into windows folder and many other programs do not need to be reinstalled after a hard reset if kept in the SD. They only need shortcuts and sometimes a few reg keys / files to be restored).
Versions available: LITE / XDA
How is the Xda & OpenGL/Freeware ROM?:
Storage: 133,79 Free 121,47 / Program: 100,83 Free 50,91
Latest developments: More and more shortcuts replaced/added, HardLeys reconfigured, Backlight fixed, Power Radio and Quick GPS background as theme. Update Recommended. Help wanted from other cookers/testers please see the post "To do list/help wanted"
Excluded: Manila, Calculator, FM Radio, Office Mobile, OneNote, Sample Music, Google Maps, HTC Task Manager
Included: Net CF 3.7, BT Jetware Extension, Showcase, HGPS Switch, EZInput, Album, XDA_UC, Power Radio, Most of HTC Mega, BL05, PIM BackUP 2.8, PHN NotePad, Cyberon VSD, FDC Soft Task Manager, ACR, Second Today, Opera, YouTube, Mortscripts (Screen Rotation), cruiserrr customization (IE to SD, RSS to SD, Folders to SD, etc)
Links To SD (install the programs to sd\program files first, then flash the rom): Office Mobile, Google Maps, PocketScreen, XNView,
Links To SD (Commercial software): IGO, SKTools (and icons to diff sk tools), SK Tracker, SK smgr, Resco Explorer
Check here known bugs.
It is an ongoing development so each day the ROM will have more icons converted and more shortcuts to SD, etc. Links to commercial software will be kept in a separate folder "SD Icons" for the time being. I plan to do a mortscript that allows to customize which icons to install or to do a mirror structure of folders or to integrate in normal folders only in a "full" version.
How is the Lite ROM?: I would say it is fast!
Storage: 143,00 Free 136,00 / Program: 100,83 Free 53,32
Latest developments: Same as XDA Rom
It is like the XDA ROM but does not include Cyberon Voice Speed Dial, Sun Java, Opera, Audio Booster, Audio Manager, RSS Hub, Streaming Media, TouchFlo, Voice Recorder, HyperGPS, Power Radio, Second Today, PIM BackUP, PHM NotePad. Please report any links included by mistake.
Cabs post
Common to both:
1. No radio included. 1.59.XX.XX is what I use / No initial splash integrated (can use this one), flash without fare / Non bootable from SD, needs pc to flash it / Usual disclaimers apply.
2. Folders and shortcuts rearranged, using basically Bluemetalaxe Icons
3. No additional footprint: registry keys not used are deleted, icons replace the original ones, etc. (ongoing work to clean garbage left by the flash process in \windows like provxml files, duplicate shortcuts, etc).
4. After flashing XDA_UC will start and install any tsk/cab/reg/xml etc silently. Please look in the forum for instructions on how to use. After first boot, the network customization will be launched and showcase will be fully configured ("X" at the top-right corner).
5. Mortscript will be used but only "static" mortscript so not to penalize performance/battery: no scripts doing this and that every x time. Only scripts based on system notifications or processes.
If somebody wants a naked version I will be happy to remove any programs you ask me to whenever a cab installation is available.
If somebody wants a standard or full version, ... well.... do not ask me to do it better than pcarvalho or kostas or gullum, in fact this rom has no development, is mostly customization and benefits from their work and others with the new builds porting and the kitchen release and the software integration.
Beta testing only (see above for stable versions): Lite + Many shortcuts
I will appreciate suggestions, feedback, help, etc.
Hope you like it !
Tweaks
- Initial splash sound removed (not the beeps)
- Pictures stored in SD card
- IE stores information in SD Card
- RSS Hub reads / saves info to SD Card
- Cleartype and ct rotation activated
- GPS Camera activated
Cab's links / location
Install to SD/Program Files:
Office 2007 into SD Card
Bugs / Known Issues
Common:
- Does not contain mainsplash (I will explain / give link on how to change to whatever you want) so most of you will continue seing the pcarvalho initial picture (kostas rom I think does not include the initial splash either)
- Does not load from SD, requires ActiveSync connecion + bootloader
- Some icons still to be replaced
- Usual Garbage in c\windows: proxxml and duplicate png/lnk files.
- Pending to include XDA calculator.
- wrong build id shown on deviceinfo
Lite version:
- Pending to remove voice recorder icon or to point it to sd.
To Do List
Here I include the issues I want help for:
-sync with cell tower at startup
-rapidshare/megaupload storage
-no popup when 100% battery charged. It is a pain if you use IGO
-merge initial splash
-clean files used in the installation (provxml, lnk, png, etc.)
-include cabs in the installation
-force soft reset at the end
-split all htc packages not needed in the naked rom (I only want to keep what is needed for album)
- .bat file to upgrade rom version and provxml, depending on a parameter captured in a text file (does it exist?)
Help wanted: I would like to do the job in a COM3/4/5 build rather than in 23016 since the future brings us there ... but 23016 works like a charm. If anybody can help porting to 23060 or 23071 I would appreciate
Screenshots please. Thanks for your work. If u need a beta tester tell me.
How did you activate you GPS Camera? By modifying Registry code? Could you please teach mehow to do that?

Hi, you are going faster than I do!!!!! I am at home this week with the flu so I have been able to go faster than normally I will do. My roms are "SD oriented" which means you will have a set of minimum icons (eg. office, igo and google maps). Neither of these programs is installed in the lite rom, only the icons. Today I will publish a naked one (beta) that I did with the help of phnikola. It does not include titanium and exinput and any htc enhancements. It includes showcase and all "my stuff". It is beta, I think the lite version is only 5 megs more (mostly keyboard and album) and runs even faster and the scroll is much better so far.
For your post, I think the best for you would be to download gullum kitchen and follow the short directions given in his first post. In 5 minutes you could be flashing your first rom and in 5 more minutes you could removed all unnecessary stuff to have your naked rom. and it is fun also to have your own rom.

M8, you would do as all a favour if you'd post in
- normal color (usually black)
- the same color (usually black) in every posting, not each single post in another color...
- without permanently CAPITALS use
- not permanently bold
Many, many thanks in advance.
