[DEV] iPAQ hw6900 Series WM6.5.x ROM project (screenshots) - Sable

From time to time I do get messages from people asking if I can make a WM6.5 ROM for hw6900 series iPAQs.
The thing is that I don't have any hw6900 series iPAQs to do tests with.
So I looking for someone who can sell cheap or donate a hw69x5 iPAQ for WM6.5 / WM6.5.3 ROM development.
If you have one and are willing to donate it - contact me.

Recently I bought an iPAQ hw6945 with broken LCD to see if it can run WM6.5.x. And yes - it can.
WM6.5.3 runs really well on it. At least it seems so - as it's quite hard to operate device with broken LCD (I see nothing on it) by using MyMobiler.
Now I need to get an LCD to test it more.

Custom Rom WM6.5 HP6915
the pics are looking good,
spiaatie, when do you expect a working rom?
if you can't find a new LCD, maybe i can test the rom?

I know where to get the LCD, but I just don't money for it now.
Most of functions works well, I just need to tune up some things.
If I will need any BETA testers, I would better choose from Senior Members not from
Junior Members.

LOOKING GOOD!!!!
waiting patiently for the release of the rom!!!

Hi, i can try this rom...

Hi, me too want to try this new rom !!!!!
=;-)

Let me know if you haven't gotten a spare LCD by next Friday. I might have something for you. Also, I still have mine that I can test with if you need.

I still haven't got the LCD.
Beta version will be available, as I said I need to fix few things. But first I need to finish my school projects.

Ok. I may be able to either get you a replacement LCD, or a used hw6945. I'm not sure which one, though. I have to talk to a buddy of mine, but he won't be available until after Easter. I'll know more on Monday.

Wow!! Looks nice! Can I have a beta of that wm6.5? We're waiting. Thank you for Your work.
Best regards!

Oh, man, I completely forgot about this! Hey, Spiaatie, did you ever get that LCD? If not, I can send you a replacement one, if you know how to change it out. As long as shipping to you is under $20, I'll cover it.

man, this is awesome news!
man, this is awesome news!
i am experienced on flashing roms for 6915 family. if you need to try something out, let me know!

Sweet, just picked up a HW6965 on eBay as a temporary phone until I get my Desire back, so I'll be more than willing to test this.

Great news
looks really good. I am waiting for it to try.
Thanks in advance. I upgraded my hw6965 ram to 128mb by myself
from 2x HYB18L256160BF-7.5 to 2x HYB18L512160BF-7.5
So if your rom will take more ram, it can still run on my hw6965.
currently, my hw6965 is running wm6.1 plus simplified HTC-home
Now waiting for and want to try your rom.

look fw to this!!!
can we count on you?

I'm looking forward to trying this too.

Hi! I want try it on my HW 6915/ I try 4PDA 6.1 and 6.5WM. But many programs don`t work and don`t work Bluetooth. Sorry fo my bad English

Me too ))
But would WM6.5 be not too "heavy" for hw6915?

I've already sent Spiaatie a replacement LCD screeen for his 6945, so I'm sure he'll get a test ROM out soon enough. Just be patient.

Given M3100 to Someone , Will i buy Again or Wait for Kaiser ?

Hi guys , What you recommend , any release date from htc for kaiser yet ? or i buy the hermes again ...please throw your valuable feedback .
I am also awaiting the Kaiser...the date was set at June 2007 from http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=733 but about a week ago they changed it to July 2007. at this rate I just might buy an iPhone

Mr Sensible says wait until the Kaiser comes out, Mr More Sensible says wait a good six months after release so initial problems are ironed out. Mr Exceedingly sensible says wait at least a year so the price has dropped considerably. Mr Ultimately Sensible says just give it ten years and there'll be even better ones out by then. How sensible are you??
By the way next time you are giving one of these away:

Mike
lol, I should wait for it's launch , can't wait any further lol
I feel your pain
To tide me over I bought a M3100 off ebay so I can 'keep my hand in' so to speak until the kaiser is released
Anyone have any further info on release dates in the UK ?
Personally I don't see enough of a change for me to rush out and get one to replace my M3100. There isn't really a killer feature that I must have... the extra ROM memory is nice but I don't run that low at the moment. I don't need the built in GPS as my SirfStarIII is excellent. Don't need the extra 3meg camera over the 2meg. The screen tilt is nice but never felt the need for it. OK, it's a little bit thinner and slightly lighter but once again not enough to change.
Now if I was looking for a new phone or coming from say a Wizard then I would jump on it first chance.
Anybody got Kaiser release date for t-mobile ,Will it be called Vario III ?
I think it's out in October OEM, dunno about branded colaunches. I'll certainly be hassling T-Mobile in October as that's when my birthday is (and it'll be just over a year from the start of my contract with them).
Can't waiiiitttttttttttttt for the Kaiser Even though it's a little bit biger than the Hermes. Yummy yumyumyumyum.

Indeed LOL!
Actually, I think they are just sticking price up to catch the idiots with more money than sense and who must be first with the latest gadget. In fact the sites may not even know their pricing levels yet until HTC release info.

HTC confirm UK release is expected in Nov 07, in time for the xmas purchase rush!

nice, how did you get your hands on one of those bad boys? anyword on expect release date instead of just "end of 2008?" And is it the black model that we see in the original ad or are they really going to change the color to that metallic color that looks so cheap that's seen in some recent photos?

I work in the cellphones market and since I work in the technical department I recived a sample to test our gadgets, like battery, hearphones, chargers......
The one I have is metallic. I agree Black is better but it doesn't look bad, I'll try to upload some images.
sounds good. i wonder if they decided to switch from black to metallic when they found out that the diamond or pro was coming out all black and wanted to diffrenciate earlier in the design process.
Like I said this is just a sample, maybe they will change it again.
I've never actually done a rom dump this way, but this seems plausible:

Real WM7 Theme support QVGA, VGA n Square QVGA devices!!!

Hi friends I found this marvelous theme while surfing net this afternoon
For me this is the most same skin for WM7..
To run this theme I have found out, we just simply need to use phone alarm today plug in
Here is the link to the source creator:
http://www.pocketmax.net/smf/index.php?topic=6437.0
very nice, thanks...
OMFG, this looks as if it came directly from MS !! Just one unified professional and clean look, really really great. Unfortunately PhoneAlarm isn´t for free (but for 15€).
Maybe someone tries to port the skin to BatteryStatus+UltimateLaunch ? Or maybe TodayLife ?
regards,
Martin
phoneAlarm is well worth a few bucks, believe me. Take a look at some skins I did for this great software...

Yeah a new rom from UDK that's a very good news
New year new rom
Thanks to continue to release good rom for polaris
looking good cant wait....
(But will Yahtzee work?)
Wow, a new rom from udk...Nice job man, can wait to test it on my phone..Oh...and Happy Holidays!!
Good to see your back!
Nice to know that you'r still interested in "polaris'".
udk strikes back..!!!
Excellent news, but can anyone expand on what is meant by "footprints and GEO Service"???
Its very happy to see you again in Polaris, buddy!
I cannnnnnnnnnnnnnt wait for this new ROM.
I will check this post every 10 mins.
BTW, any chance to build the HD's "Stock tab" and Diamond's "Connect to PC" in Polaris?
wow, i can't wait, really good news!!!!
Automapa
Hi,
I'm always overwhelmed with your work and I would like to have this stuff on my HTC. However with the last versions of your rom (e.g. R4) Automapa 5.0 GPS software doesn't work anymore. I know that this niche software and I don't expect you will bother about this issue, however I wonder whether there are any changes in R5 which could influence the use of GPS module so it will be worth to give it a try, flash my Polaris with the R5 and check if it works or not.
Unfortunately replaycing Automapa with other software is not an option for me.
Great work and I keep fingers crossed that one day...
wait for R5,thanks man.
Looks really good.. i cannot stand this original 6.1 rom by HTC anymore.. lags so much and so freaking slow! really looking forward to ur brilliant work UDK! BTW, any approximate release dates? thanks bro
Glad you didn't forget about polaris users. Your roms are always the best. Where the heck do you get all these unreleased versions of htc apps? You must have a great source.
That is good news to hear UDK is back
wwoooww...R5...!!!....thanks UDK.....i am dieing....i cannot wait more.....
R5
Best Birthday present I could wish foir today lol Cheers
Hey udK, just wanna say that I appreciate a lot your work and interest in developing roms for polaris. Many thanks, looking forward to R5!
Happy New Year and keep up the brilliant work

Hey UDK nice work!!
I'm looking forward to your new rom.
Well, I have some wishes (no demands!) regarding to the new rom.
My wishlist:
1. Multi-language roms in FRE/ITA/GER/SPA/WWE (maybe you can work something out with M-Anime)<---Priority!!
2. get the Volume control of the W100-cable remote to work with the audio manager in m2dc
3.Audio playback in stand-by mode
4. Maybe a light version of the rom with basic apps (opera, PiMBckup,RSS..)
so that everybody can customize his PPC the way he likes.
maybe you can consider or you have already considered some of these wishes. Even if not, keep up the good work!!
Greetings and best wishes for 2009!!
New Rom
Wow cant wait to try it out ; )

[CM 6.1][Beta][Test+Bug fixing]

Hi everybody,
just wanted to let you know that I have successfully booted up CM6.1. Was kinda tricky but hey I promised to do my best. Now bugfixing time!
Please have a look here for more infos:
CyanogenMod6.1
I will post a bootup-video + some screenies later!
Ahh by the way: I would like to say thx to stockwell for pointing me to the right direction with a kernel-related problem.
Great work, can't wait to see what you did so I can see how close (or far!) my attempt was from working.
Edit: I notice you mention that the packages won't be made public. How do I get my hands on them?

I'm happy to test and provide feedback also. Well done.
@stockwell: I'll share it for everyone getting in contact with me! It's not even ready for a public release. It's meant for devs as I hope we will get some steps further with teamwork!
Please follow link on 1st post to grab the Alpha Release!
Could you give some info that what is working right now and what is not?
Verry nice to see that someone is porting
Gratz with the boot!
You were right, this is too much for me lol.
Not working:
Radio (Wifi, GSM, WCDMA, Bluetooth, FM, GPS)
GPU Acceleration (I think, the interface while speedy moves choppy)
Many other things
I will do some more messing around this arvo to find out more but this definately is not for those who need their device to be usable. It did boot fine though.
Yap it's meant for devs but I am working on the fixes
Thanks for your effort!
Is the X5 special in any way or is this many fixes always needed when porting CM?

FYI: Got 3D partially fixed! Will provide a new update (including several fixes) in the next 24hours. It will be available again via link on 1st post. That's all for now
Would you be able to post up how you did what you've done so far on fixing 3D?
Would you please upload the source to github?
is radio working ?
no radio!
Alpha2 now available via 1st post! Still buggy and needs fixes...

Have a look at boot.img. I added kgsl specific perms to init.rc's. This works also with init from Vision (109,6kb) but I reverted back now to B160 init
I'm not developer my self, but is it possible to use kernel or radio drivers from another phone model ie. Desire z to get rid of those problems with randomly dropping 3g connection? I understood that desire is nearly with the same harware.
Sent from my u8800 using Tapatalk
That's something kernel devs should have a look at!
Anywqy if you follow link on 1st post there's now Alpha4 available.
Perfromance of this rom is very good compared to the stock Huawei. I was able to get over 2500 in Quadrant at 1.5GHz over 300 points higher than the stock rom at 1.5GHz. People should give this rom a go it's working great on mine so far. Only things I notice aren't working are camera, haptic and mobile data. There are a few bugs here and there but nothing major. It's fast and smooth. Screens:
