As I mentioned, the OS version is still 5.2.1622 (Build 18128.0.4.4). This will be my only work on WM6. Maybe the softwares will still be updated in the future.
I've done those changings:
- Used Adobe Reader LE 2.5 instead of ClearValuePDF, and updated to the latest build 103401.01
- Used Jbed instead of Jblend, and the build of Jbed is 20080610.2.1
- Updated .NET Compact Framework from 2.0 to 3.5
- Updated the Windows Live for Windows Mobile from version 10.6.0033.0600 to 10.6.0034.0800
- Added OneNote Mobile into Office Mobile
- Added China, Hong Kong and other options in Regional Settings
- Removed the HTC Enlarge Start Menu (It will be included again in my WM6.1 modified ROMs)
- Removed .NET Compact Framework v3.5 Messages CHT for Windows Mobile
- Customer Feedback is placed back
My first WM6.1 ROM has been finished. Come here if you are interested in it.
Remember, I'm just a beginning-level cook. Please don't just leave swearing posts if there is something wrong... Thanks.
Instruction: Just flash my ROM like what you've done for medkid's.

In my opinion, MWG Atom Life WM6 ROM WWE_020108_B2_DS is a very stable rom. I never find the major problem with this rom before.
However, the only problem that I really concern is the RAM of this rom is too low. So if you can include the RAM management program (Oxios CloseApps) in your rom, that would be good. And if you can make this rom have more RAM, that would be the best.
One more request for you to consider, the software that make flash of ATOM Life to be torch is very useful too.
That all from my side. However, if you just post your rom like you talk. I am also still interesting in your rom.
Thanks, mate. Over 100 views and you posted the first response...
Yes, I agree you point. But my target of cooking is to only make ROMs that very like the official ROM. I won't add anymore other new softwares that do not come from Microsoft or MWg or O2 in order to keep the ROM stable. I will only exchange the softwares that I think they're useless.
Anyway, I'll think about how to reduce more memory consumtion. I've thought about that and you gave me the push. I'll find methods to do that. Thanks mate.
Hi aa125690.
great to hear that we have another budding cook amidst us. Please do post your ROM so that we cn test it and notify you of any bugs or crashes. Together we all can help improve ROM development. As Frioniel said torch and oxios close apps are very important applications. Also please try to reduce the pagepool to increase more free RAM. Personally I never used MWG ROM, because I always go for newer builds
Even Medkid's 6.1.0.9 is very stable for me. TM2's 22070 ROM had some issues like restarting when battery nears 40%, lesser battery life.
One more thing, if you could also provide the option for regional settings for many other countries as an add on option later on.
My 2 cents.

I am using T2M's, but no restarting issue. I see that you are using a 4G miniSD. I am wondering if you have any problem like me - when you go \start menu\program\games (I install games on SD card), it will cause the system paused for 2 to 3 minutes, for the first time after soft reset. This applies to all ROMs I have tried. Same thing happens if using file explorer to access the \start menu\program\games folder for the first time after soft reset. However, it will be ok then. It will reduce the pause time to less than a minute for 2G, and un-noticeable with 1G.
Any good idea or suggestion? Thank you.
O.S.

Same here. Been using v6.1.0.9 for sometime now. Ram and battery is quite important for me. The battery can go down to as low as 9% without shutdown. See screenshot.

Because other guys have already posted the modified high-level ROMs, I'll only create stable WM6 and WM6.1 ROMs as unofficial "pre-officialp)" ROMs at the moment. I'll modify WM6.1 ROMs after that. But I prefer to make the "pre-official" version first.
I use the wince.nls file from medkid's ROM, so if you find the option you want in Regional Settings in medkid's ROM, you won't be failed to find that in mine.
By the way, I'm still doing some update and upgrade works on my ROM. And if anybody has suggestion about where I should upload, please tell me.
Maniac2403, thanks for suggestion. I think you could be a cook better than me(maybe you've already been a cook). Rom cooking is a quite easy job if you study and work hard. Really.

I've made a ROM modified from the official MWG Atom Life WM6 ROM WWE_020108_B2_DS. Just changed something necessary in order to make it become more usable and keep it stable. So, the OS version is still 5.2.1622 (Build 18128.0.4.4). My work on WM6 will always stick on this version, as it may be the most stable ROM for Atom Life.
I've done those changings:
- Use Adobe Reader LE 2.5 instead of ClearValuePDF
- Use Jbed instead of Jblend, and the build of Jbed is 20080610.2.1
- Add OneNote Mobile into Office Mobile
- Add China, Hong Kong and other options in Regional Settings
- Customer Feedback is hided
I'm actually still trying to upgrade the Internet Explorer Mobile from version 7.6 to 7.11, and the Windows Live for Windows Mobile from version 10.6.0033.0600 to 10.6.0034.0800. And I may not work for WM6 anymore after that. I'll start trying to build WM6.1 ROMs, and try to keep them as stable as the official WM6 ROM at the same time.
Who's interested in it? If someone wants stable ROMs, I'll upload my ROMs. The one I've just made works stably in my Atom Life.
Remember, I'm just a beginning-level cook. Please don't just leave swearing posts if there is something wrong... Thanks.

Do u come from Hong Kong ?
I want to know that if u have a situation like this: the device becomes very slow after using FM radio for sometime, provided that the device is using official WM6 rom. However, there is no such problem when it is using official WM5 rom.
I have take the device to the CS to check if there is any problem. But they only help me to flash the rom again. The problem still sticks with me.
Anyway, thx for ur great contribution

Hehe.. I tried cooking, don't know what went wrong
Would try again when I have free time though. I still haven't got how to port my own XIP instead of using other XIP's.
Anyways you can build a 'Vanilla' ROM for Atom Life, as there are none of these kinds.
Regarding upload. Anywhere except rapidhshare
Also regional settings are hard to comy by for India . Any tricks up your sleeve for it ?

Yea I use a 4GB card by Sandisk When I had got the card I had formatted it to Fat32 using a Win98 machine. You know the 'format' in command
Normally when I reboot my phone, I remove the MiniSD out of its slot. The delay happens under two circumstances.
1. Programs installed on the storage card
Reading from storage card takes a lil more time as compared to Main memory which is a flash memory. So more the memory more time it would take to sort through all files.
2. Fragmented files on the card
You can plug the card to your home computer and defragment it once in a while. That should speed up performance.

I second that mate !
Maybe its my luck that TM2's Rom gave me issues. Would try his upcoming ROm's though.
I cooked a rom. Basically, it's a PTG OEM Rom, but with drivers from Dopod s600. Used same method that xangma. However, I'm testing the rom now, but the system seems to be the same, no improves. Maybe I'm wrong, but there's no software benchmarks can I do to display driver?
Other question, there's any way to improve system performance? I've installed advanced configuration, but file cache was already enabled.
By using original Touch Dual driver, you device will be freeze up every time you touch the touchscreen (Thanks HTC!)
Dopod S600 driver doesn't have this problem
Tiago Machado - try to clean up you rom

I've flashed the Rom minutes ago so I've only Resco explorer and Adv. Config. installed. I'm confused because, when I use Mary, Tom, and Shark Rom's, they come with a lot of programs and are faster than mine now, so I always thought that the speed was conected with the video driver.
So... how can I put my rom working like yours?
May be you just made something wrong with cooking?
When i have cook my self rom (20753 build), it was isn't faster, isn't slower than other rom

No... The only thing I've done was replace all touch.dll folder. I wanted to have two roms exactly the same but with differente video drivers so I can compare... But I will do some tests now. I've downloaded this software and it's running right now.
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-vsbenchmark-2007-v1-20.html
Dont you know a better software?
I just finished the benchmarks... well... the results are almost the same So many hours cooking and then I even dont know want gonne wrong... anyone have the results with and withouth most recent video driver so we can compare?
Nothing wrong, just there is no any video driver that will work on niki

So, why are some roms faster than the others?
So, why are some roms faster than the others?
Various builds, cleaning, etc.
I use original rom ported to wm6.1
I don't think Mary rom, or Tom's rom work much faster that my one (I have tested it, benchmarking prof it).
Can you cook rom, that contains build from kaiser, radio from kaiser, and .dll from kaiser (DDI.DLL, DISPTOOLS.DLL and another that can be compatible with niki)?
May be it will allow to use D3d driver from kaiser

I dont think that will work Even if I believe it works, I really cant do it. Really a noob Cant you help me faster my rom?
i forgot one thing... there is several programs from original touchflo
They made by HTC (calls HTC_program, htc_settings, they launch from large start menu) they change original programs and settings window to another one (They look absolutely same, but they isn't same). In result it works more faster.
For example - touchscrolling in program's applet. Without this programm, scrolling so laggy (Thanks HTC!), but by using it, scrolling works without any freezes/stops/lags
Hi
In WM 6.5 You Can Scroll The Programs And Menus Buy Dragging Any Where , But In WM 6.1 You Have To Use The Scroll Bars !
Is There Any Way To Make The Scrolling In WM6.1 Like The One In WM6.5 ? !
Thanks
Yes, it is possible
Infact that is the default feature of WM 6.1, if it is not removed by the chef while cooking the ROM to again more free RAM.
Try any of the 6.1 based ROM from this forum.
@Duron: No it cant be removed and it has became a feature of the Windows Mobile OS itself. It could be removed in older days (with Elf for example) when it was not part of Windows Mobile OS itself, rather it was provided by an external HTC tool called BioTouch. Now its inseparable.
Thanks Every One
krazy_about_technology thank you
i have downloaded one of your 6.1 roms
and it has the Scrolling feature
thank you so much
You are most welcome friend. Enjoy your phone!
guys iam srry
but there is a great rom iam using now , and its very good and comfo
but the only thing wich is missing is the scrolling stuf
could any one help me adding it again to the rom ?
thanks every one
@ Krazy,
Thank's for correcting me.
But I guess I had flashed a 6.1 ROM which did not had touch scrolling in it, So thought it could be removed while cooking.
Anyway it's good for us that microsoft has made it part of OS.
@Duron: Yes, you are right buddy, in earlier versions of 6.1, MSTOUCH was not there (this is the name people use to describe the built in flik scrolling in WinMo). These versions also have a weird problem, that if you copy 2-3 files to phone mem which are also present in the ROM itself (i mean you override the rom file), then the device would get really really slow. It would take upto 5 minutes to open the WIndows folder in file explorer. This issue was solved in some builds just before the one i used in Pro Users ROM v1.0. And at the same time, Microsoft introduced touch scrolling in the WIndows Mobile itself.
@Hassan: Buddy, there is no way you can enable touch scrolling in that rom without rebuilding it with a newer SYS which means, you create a new ROM. Only HTC Touch (Elf) and above phones have a touch screen driver that can do this with the help of biotouch.exe utility. It requires this utility + support for it in the touch.dll driver. This driver file is unique for every device and cannot be used across devices, atleast not between those which have fundamentally different types of touch screens. For reference, see how the touch screen of a touch series device from htc differs from a device like gene. you will get the idea, the hardware is different.
how do i know which rom im using
i have the x7510 .i heard that the michy rom is really good.how do i know which rom im using.also is the oem rom any good.
i cooked a rom for the p6500
this .NBH contains the radio and os and its WM 6.1
to use it make sure you have hard SPL'ed your device before you flash this rom...so you can always go back to the offical ROM
anyway this rom has lots of stuff taken out like
HTC Home, BT Explorer, BT Sap, Adpbe Reader LE , HTC Audio Manager, Htc Task manager, Smart Dialing, Htc Comm Manager... and a few more thingstweaked here and there...
i think its better to build you system from the bare amount and then take a backup of it with SKTools or SPB Backup. so this is like a bare rom with a few things changed....
ON THE WAY>>>
FIXED>>>NOW>>>TESTED>>>WORKING
THIS ONE WORKS>>>!!!!
also dont put this on straight from WM6, Flash WM6.1 Offical First then flash this.. you see it only contains the radio and os .. no IPL so to make sure it works make sure you have 6.1 on your device first... then all should be good.
it might work flashing from wm6 but i dont know..
well if anybody tries it let me know what they think...OK

MD5: F8E1DA61BB635E189099BCF03DECABAC
let me know how ye get on please... and help if u can...
Update erorr 270.I used tools from official package with spl Olipro 1.20 but no results....
fixing it.... fixing it... ...FIXED!!
sorry bout that popgo just missed something putting in the radio.. well its working now
new link above and old one is deleted..so try it out now
this one i flashed before i posted and it is working, sorry bout the other one it was my first offering of a cooked ROM
ive been cooking for a few year but am still a NOOB but ROM's work perfect. Only posted this cause senda is lacking in available ROMs..maybe ill become a XDA DEV STAR...lol let me know what you think of ROM. BTW use the official rom update tool just replace the .nbh with my RUU_Special.nbh offering.
Please leave feedback and ask questions if you want.. anyway. try this one now, is definitely working now.. link above
what do you all think..??? any good..?? well...
How do you delete a post>>>?
Successfully installed your rom gardee005!!!At the first sight, fast rom with increased storage memory, because of removing old programs like htc zip, audio manager..., build OS is the same as the official, relatively clean rom.Still testing stability, gps, wlan.Thanks....
yup it works.. anyway in settings you might notice some things are gone..
Domain Enroll, Feedback, ..etc. well they are just hidden.. it in the regisrty HKLM/Control Panel/... and whichever one i thought was useless i hid...
just in case you want to use one just delete the entry 'hide=1' for whichever
also file explorer is replaced altogethe and calculator for better one.
dont try to dump and edit this rom because i removed all the .rgu entries just before cooking
anyway if you cooking i think your better off starting with an offical rom..
Also in this ROM, NAND Flash Recovery is fixed and will work...
unlike the offical rom ( just goes to show the experts are human and officals Roms contain mistakes)
the reason why is on another post bout NAND Flash Recovery
And popgo let me know if you find any glitches... and ill fix them if i can or let you know if i cant or if its WM6.1 at fault
OS's aren't perfect and the more complicated they get the more glitches are going to creep in
any way thanks for trying out my offering and hope you like it
Everything works fine and smoothly, without any glitches and braking.Opera fine works(over wlan), as well i go nav, lower program memory consumption.I like it....great job gardee005.By the way, have you any experience with touch flo/manila?How it works on Sedna?
no i dont use touch flo so i dont know much about it..in fact i have never used it.
but i know HTC album works great on sedna, have it open in portrait mode by tweaking start up entry , add '-mode:camera -type:image' with new file explorer (GS Finder) to tits shortcut in start menu folder.
anyway i dont think i like wm6.1... think is a bit buggy and i think wm6 is better(less buggy) so im gonna do the same idea for wm6 and when i do ill post it here
TCPMP wont work without serious tweaking in 6.1 but AFAIK it works no probs wm6.
im not sure bout which version is most buggy but i think its wm6.1... ill do a version, post it and use it myself.
ive been using this one for bout 1 month and before that wm6 for bout 2 weeks and i think im right in my suspicion bout 6.1 been a bit of a pain compared to 6.0 ...
Link's dead
Hey there,
I'd really like to check out the ROM you made, but the link is dead...
I have some spare-webspace to host the file once I get it myself, to ensure the file will be available for all, without limits.
Zappo uploaded it again... Post your link and ill add it to the first Post ...
anyway ther is a new like up above...OK
Let me know waht you think....
I am planing on doing a WM6.0 one as i think i prefer that version but have been too busy at the moment... but i will get around to it as soon as i can...
This Device have any Cookers??
And You do not want more?
If anyone want... I cook new rom for this device
Cheers
Great nokser,
i have Sedna and I wish to try your new rom.
Greetings from Serbia.
There is only one obstacle. I do not have equipment.
Any suggestions, ideas?
I need to know how much it is willing for the new ROM ..
Where is a good one, my HTC HD2 has no SD card right now and I wanna just flash it out of MAGLDR and play around with WinMo a lil bit but everything in the development area is nothing but dead links from dead file sharing hosts.
probably going be energy rom then, still active links in the HD2 wiki & an archive of energy rom versions
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_HD2#ROM_Development
Artemis was good too but that not suitable for US T-Mobile unfortunately .
I prefer the older build 23699 of Energy , super stable & with some tweaking very capable even today.
What HSPL do I need to be on for that? RN I'm still on 2.08 aMAGLDR (The newer rebuilt one) wished there was a Windows Phone rom for this, I know theres NAND android.
HSPL2.08
Have WP7.8 roms if still have working links, it ok due to huge amount of WP restrictions overcome in custom roms but still too limited for my liking.
Yea hook me up even with "Rom-Name-v1.zip" and I'll google search that for a mirror if they're NAND's.
